One of the most rewarding aspects of being part of the esper and yaoi fandoms is the sense of community and support that comes with it. Through online forums and social media groups, I've connected with individuals from around the world who share similar interests and experiences.
He is often much stronger than his partner, leading to a "gentle giant" or "restrained beast" trope where he must be careful not to overwhelm the person he loves.
The climax of the story should involve his dual nature. Does he reject his human half to become a full esper (and lose his humanity/empathy)? Or does the bottom save him, proving that love is a power greater than ESP? The answer is always the latter.
