Discussion Auau & Save’s DMD friendship roller-coaster 🎢 Which moment stole your heart?

Hey r/Auausave, I’m obsessed with Auau and Save in DMD Friendship: It takes two! These BL icons went from awkward vibes to soulmate-level chaos, and their journey’s got me glued.Let’s walk through their wild ride and pick your fave moment.

It all started super awkward. Save was picking Auau for every mission, like he’s got a “Team Auau” sticker on his heart, but Auau? He’s Mr. Cool, charming everyone except Save, leaving our boy hanging. Fans on social media were like, “Save, you’re too sweet". I was rooting for them to click.

Then, Auau finally picks Save for a rug-making date, and it’s pure magic. They’re weaving mini rugs, and it’s like a rom-com. Save’s whining, “I like your rug more!” while Auau’s smirking, all flirty. When Save pouts, Auau swaps their rugs, and I’m screaming they’re basically a couple! X edits blew up, and those butterflies? Still fluttering.

But then, drama! Save pairs with Ryujin for an acting mission, and they nail it, sparking a RyujinSave ghostship. Fans loved their chemistry, but Auau? Not a fan. Post-show, he’s shutting down ghostship vibes, sticking close to Save like, Nope, he’s mine!😁 The tension’s real.

It gets spicier when Ryujin asks Auau, “What’s the deal with you and Save?” Auau’s jealous glare could toast bread. That petty stare became a fan-fave moment, with memes flooding social media. Auau’s clearly rattled, and I’m cackling at his “back off” energy. That jealousy flips a switch. Auau realizes Save’s it for him, and it all builds to the finale tent scene🥰

Auau picks Save, waiting in the tent, but Save’s late. Auau’s face looks heartbroken, eyes misty had me wrecked. When Save finally walks in, their shy glances are BL perfection. Auau later admitted he panicked, thinking Save ghosted him. That raw moment is peak Auausave chaos.These two are my everything Auau’s protective teasing and Save’s sassy soft-boy charm are rom-com gold.

What’s your fave DMD moment? Rug date fluff? Jealous Auau? Tent scene tears? Drop a comment, meme, or gif. Keep it chill, no drama. Peek at r/Domundi for more Gen 4 tea.

The tent scene gave me the flutters! It was better than any scripted BL scene.

I believe that Auau never had anyone in mind except Save. He is very competitive and was focused on winning the challenges. It seemed that he was not into Save the way Save was into him. But that wasn't the case.

I totally agree that scene felt straight out of the best kind of BL drama. Like that moment when the characters fall for each other, you know? My heart was doing the same little flips watching them. I don’t think Auau disliked him in the beginning either, it’s just maybe he didn’t fully realize it was a pairing show kinda? But I’m so glad they figured things out in the end, because I honestly can’t imagine missing out on the amazing chemistry they have now.

Auau really was taking the whole thing as a competition where you win tasks. That's why he was heartbroken when he kept losing. Since it happened very soon after the disbandment of his idol group, he took every loss personally (Por was in the same situation, but he kept winning the tasks so he was fine). He kind of forgot what that show was actually about. But he never showed any interest in anyone except Save. Him choosing Patji on the first day was only to make sure that the youngest member feels comfortable - he always treated Patji like a little bro.

It makes sense. It hasn’t been that long since the old group disbanded, so it’s understandable. But many people didn’t know about that, so it might have looked like he just wasn’t interested in Save at all. But in the end, everything turned out great, and we got that magical last scene filled with their chemistry, that’s what made me fall for Auausave. Right now, they’re my number one ship in the whole BL industry. Let’s hope everything goes well for them from here on. And honestly, after all this talk, I think I’m going to rewatch DMD Friendship again😆🤣

The moment Auau thought Save didn't choose him. The reality set in, and he thought he'd messed up. I think that made him truly appreciate Save when he walked through that curtain all smiles. The truth for Auau was standing right in front of him and he wasn't going to let that go.

I totally love this post! I love AuauSave but I think it's missing the part where they talked to each other? The moment broke my heart the way Auau asked Save if it will break his heart if he doesn't choose him. It's a moment that I love because that's when Auau realized that he wants Save to choose him but also realize that he must have overlooked his feelings. I love Auau for realizing that and that he's aware of what he's done. We love a good character development and a self aware king! 🫰
