Ah, I was one type wrong. *G*

I can't remember there was much in terms of romance in "Type 52", I thought it was more UST than anything else. But as I have just proved with LoTF, my memory isn't an accurate tool, so I could be wrong.

There does not need to be a romance to keep me interested in a story, but there needs to be some depth to M&S, some emotional resonance to their interaction whatever the nature of it is, otherwise you might as well have cardboard cutouts playing the roles. I'm not saying it was the case to this story but I don't know...they felt a bit 'meh'.
