Normal yaoi: Woah this is super weird but wait... it feels good???? Could this be the start of something between us???
Alien Stage yaoi: I've resigned myself to know you’ll never love me despite how hard I tried to save you, and now I will save you one last time and as I die in front of you I will kiss your lips and hope you’ll remember me for the rest of your days
For me it's not the IvanTill moments, it's the implication of the post credit scene.
Whether or not you ship IvanTill, or maybe always thought Ivan is a total creep. There could have been more to their story.
Ivan's behaviour towards Till could border on uncomfortable sometimes but I also LOVE Ivan because I think it's a very complex interpretation of a character who never learned to process their emotions healthily when stuck in a life of single mindedly striving to achieve one goal.
It's not just "IvanTill could have had time to be free together and in love" but they would have had time and freedom period. They both have an unhealthy unrequited love with another character. Love that maybe only stemmed from being trapped together since childhood, the only things they are taught being to entertain or die.
It could be argued their feelings aren't just a result of their situation, that they would stay the same even if they had the time to live outside of performing on the alien stage, but we will never know.
Maybe Till would realize that Mizi won't love him, maybe Till would realize that Ivan was the one who always wanted to save him, maybe he would finally look at Ivan the way Ivan wanted since the beginning.
Or maybe they wouldn't. Maybe they would be friends, maybe they would continue to stick to their unrequited obsessions and they would never talk to each other again, but at least they would be free to live their own lives.
But Mizi and Hyuna didn't make it in time, so we'll never know.
Ivan's "I'm not over him" era vs "Guess I'll die" era
Anyways can't wait for the Luka vs Till final round I hope neither of them sing and they just immediately start beating the shit out of each other.
