@Petnavis People with that inclination are just going to take any hint of "bromance" as confirmation that the author wants them to be gay for each other but couldn't do so out in the open or something. Same thing holds true for a lot of the yuri readers. Whether they're right or wrong, I just leave 'em to it like any other shippers out there. People want what they want whether it actually fits at all or not. If that's how they enjoy stories, then mazel tov or whatever I guess.
