    I'm looking for a completed BL novel where they fall in love with each other over time. It's not love at first sight just because they like each other's appearance, but by staying with one another for some reason they fall in love with their personality. I've read so many stories where a MC simply saw ML and that was it, that's the true love. I'm tired of it.
    I want a real reason they are in love, something other than appearance that connected them. Shared passion, adventure, just time spent together - I don't care, anything but ''oh he is so pretty, I literally don't know anything about him but I'd die for him"

    Completed. Lots of chapters but worth it. They start off as just two kids from the same village. They've barely spoken to each other. It's only through lots of ups and downs that they eventually fall for each other.
    It has many other good points too. Female characters you actually like and have their own motivations and goals throughout the story. In fact, all the characters are like that, even the villains. Hilarity, sadness, drama, horror, epic fight scenes, thoughtful moments and a Happy ending.
    What more could you want?
