This fic is pretty panfandom really! SO glad you enjoyed it.
I'd definitely recommend checking Merlin BBC out - season 1 reminded me of Saiyuki in some ways. There's irreverent anachronistic remixing of classic legends, a story that pretends to be all about manly adventures but really is all about boys gazing at each other longingly, lots of silliness and some really emotionally charged bits. Episode 1.4 is probably the all-time high point of soulful male bonding to the backdrop of delightfully campy cheesiness, it's like Saiyuki volume 5 in that respect, so I'd say try that one to see if it's worth watching!
