Sometimes I feel like putting things into words 'ruins' it. Does that make any sense?
That *does* make sense. Subtext exists for a reason, and to actually *act* upon it, or spell it out, can make it cheap and almost like selling out to the audience.
Things that come to mind (granted, they're het...) are Moonlighting (David and Maggie), and The X-Files (Mulder and Scully).
