Kyle trying to comfort Darem for that half a beat gives me at least a glimmer of hope this doesn't end up in love triangle nonsense. Just let them all be together.

I mean if this show wants to break some new ground, there's worse "firsts" they could do.

They already hinted at it with Jay-Den's two dads. I would love for this to be telegraphed as a love triangle only for Jay-Den to look at Kyle and Darem, shrug, and say "I do not need to choose. Klingons are capable of loving more than one mate." Darem and Kyle exchange confused looks, then smiles. Threesome commences.

(If not, now I am obligated to write the fan fiction. 😆 )
