Oh wow, Dai is so cute, took such a tumble at the end of the gala with his jump, but totally laughed it off. He's amazing!

"Someone Like You" needs tangible romantic chemistry and history. That doesn't describe D/W, but they skated it well.

I think it is perfect for them. It needs tension and a little darkness, which D/W have in spades, and I do think the song describes them. Their chemistry is absolutely beautiful in this piece.
