Such a simple idea executed really well. The atmosphere felt between the two characters is communicated well and, as mentioned in the Fiction strand Q&A, it is refreshing to see an LGBTQ story end on a positive note. The absence of dialogue suits the narrative well and the theme of unspoken feelings.
