Some 80s Simonette that I drew to cheer up a friend!

I really love drawing the 80s munks! They’re so simple compared to the 2015 style ones!

Hey,

Quick background, I have been reading m/m romance, fanfics and yaoi manga for a very long time. Currently I’m more interested in Korean webcomics BL and Chinese web novels.

I was never interested in TV shows or movies, since there used to be the bury your gays in so many of them.

Then I stumbled into the world of Thai BL at the beginning of the year and been watching a few shows, TharnType, Manner of death, ColorRush and SOTUS.

I realized pretty early that I like it better with some additional story line, than just college or high school angst.

So, I really want to dive in the Shows, I even got a Viki subscription, but I’m unsure on how to proceed.

Since you the expert in this field, what would be your best shows to start? I prefer already finished, shows since I like to know that there is definite a happy ending.

thank you!!!

Welcome!

Okay, so you're looking for... plotty romances with happy endings. Definitely can help you out there! Also, holy shit, got called an expert in something.

ANYWAY.

I'll pull together a list here (and tag @absolutebl because they have SO many lists) so they can also support you in this fantastic journey. And their much more organized post is here!

Tale of a Thousand Stars: Up on YT for free, an absolutely fantastic piece about changing your point of view, accepting yourself and learning about others and discovering who you can really be. A beautiful, deeply plotty and deeply romantic show.

Until We Meet Again: Also beautiful and deeply plotted. There is a distinct warning on this show for death and suicide but there's also a happy ending so... take it as you will. A story about reincarnation, taking chances, true love, pain and learning to be better brought to you by some absolutely amazing actors.

Most of the Korean BL movies: ... I was gonna get more specific but then I realized that, frankly, this applies to almost all of them. Think of them as romance short stories. Color Rush is one of the best but To My Star is also beloved. My Sweet Dear and The Tasty Florida are also enjoyable little romps. Not deeply plotted but they aren't university or high school either.

Lovely Writer: Oh, also fantastic. Also on youtube! Very, very good story about a writer of BLs whose novel gets picked up for a show and the main actor in the show ends up moving in with him. Lots of tones of choice and love and coming together and the intricacies of the BL/Entertainment industry. Imperfect but good and enjoyable, do recommend.

Anything by Strongberry: I got a GagaOOlala membership to fulfill this need but you can also find their stuff on vimeo to support them directly. A tiny production house in Korea making authentic and amazing queer short films. Just everything by them gets the stamp of approval.

Cherry Magic: Practically perfect in every way, a darling office romance about a shy and introverted young man who gains the ability to read minds with a touch because he's a virgin on his thirtieth birthday and finds out his amazing coworker has a huge crush on him. Soft and beautiful and just... one of the best.

He's Coming To Me: Another of the Best Thai BL set, this is the story of a boy who can see ghosts and a ghost the he falls in love with and rescues from the graveyard. Also crime, solving old issues and a still happy ending at the end of it all!

History (2, 3, 4): Just any of these will fit you will. Even the ones that are set in university/high school have enough plot to carry them through and they're all great. Only go back to History 1 if you really find you like their stuff and, even then, I mostly only recommend Obsessed. All of these are on Viki, FYI. Trapped and Close To You are likely to both be up your alley. Close To You comes with a stepbrothers/stalkers warning, though. MAKE OUR DAYS COUNT IS NOT ON THIS LIST, DO NOT WATCH, NO HAPPY ENDING!!!

Love is Science?: The BL is a secondary plot, it's true, but Mark and Ou Wen is one of the most amazing love stories I've ever seen and it's just fantastic. An unintentionally homophobic hairdresser and an out gay matchmaker (basically) cross paths over and over again, building a friendship into a relationship into a family as they grow closer and closer. Just... it's so good, it's worth the rest of the show to watch these men.

We Best Love 1+2: Mostly only available on grey sites, sadly, depending on your location (possible WeTV if you're if you have a VPN? No idea). It starts as a college romance and turns into a gorgeous office romance and it's deep and fantastically acted and I feel like I just kind of have to recommend this on the principal of everyone should watch it.

You Are Ma Boy: A Vietnamese BL on youtube about a barista and a popstar and their very soft love story. Lots of domesticity and care and a tsundere barista and a puppy popstar. Far better than it probably should be, frankly, and very enjoyable.

Absolute BL (The Man Who Defies the World of BL): This is best to watch after you're watched a bunch of others... but it's fantastic and enjoyable and on Viki as well! It's a loving send off to tropes and the entire genre.

In terms of not BL, though, may I interest you in 3 Will Be Free ( a poly mafia story that's fantastic and has BL vibes but also a girl).

Also, depending on your stance on censorship, I am also willing to offer recs of Chinese censored romances but I do not offer those unless requested.

Also, depending on how queer you want and how you define a happy ending... Like in the Movies (Gaya Sa Pelikula) is a beautiful and authentically queer story that's amazing and heartrending and ends without a romantic happy ending but with a generally happy ending? So, take that as you will.

ANYWAY.

This is the best I can do as my dog stares at me because it's time for his walk, I'll add links when I get back from that! Hopefully this is a good list!

Do you have any good fanfics on Lucius and Narcissa on any platforms 🤎

[[ I keep a log of all my favorites took time to comb through them. I didn't have as many as I thought I did, apparently only three I'd reccomend, probably because there truly isn't much content and I mostly read bellamort, but here you are 🥰 They're all mature so nsfw warning!

Fixing Everything - This is one where Lucius eases some of Cissa's tension she has over Sirius escaping Azkaban and her worries over that.

Forever More - This is one of my favorites! It's about Lucius coming home from Azkaban and reuniting with Cissa. It's angsty and very sweet!

And then I also had this drabble saved by @dukeofwiltshire on tumblr. Short, but also a very sweet read! ]]

“...It’s Travis, right?” (”I'm trying to think if I’ve had a sober conversation with this guy...”) “Here.”

Look at that! A box of chocolates for you, too!

“Things always look like they’re kinda rough with you? So I hope your day is all mellow today.”
