Cooking food, even in a restaurant, cooking food for someone who specifically wants your food, cooking for someone who watches you and looks at you and says your name in a way that makes you ache for what you've lost... Ken is staring at this man eating his food and is being stared at in return in the most tender way it's heartbreaking and the way he looks at Lue and his friends teasing him afterwards but then Lue leaving and the ache in his expression when Deedee kept talking about close he was to him and just... mafia cooking show is go and I'd totally watch it.

Top 10 Best BLs on Gagaoolala
Tumblr media
My Beautiful Man AKA Utsukushii Kare
Japan 2021
One of the most Japanese BLs to release in the last decade, as weird and as messed up as any 2000s yaoi: emo af and hella warped, entirely true to itself with no attempt made to modify its POV for modern sensibilities or current BL fandom. It used seriously old school problematic and kinky tropes, like whipping boy, for a truly uncompromising piece that also manages to hit up themes of communication, consent, and self acceptance. It’s a wonderful BL but uniquely dirty and harsh, in the best possible way - Japanese cinema, uncompromising.
I lost my ever loving mind over the ending. This show won the Grand Prix “My Best TV Award” at the 16th Galaxy Awards.
Tumblr media
Minato's Laundromat AKA Minato Shouji Coin Laundry
Japan 2022
A classic age gap romance where a high school student pursues the man of his dreams (who runs a laundromat). This BL is so steeped in yaoi nostalgia, not to mention a classic romance arc, that it will overload some, but those of us who love this genre for its DNA will adore it. It made me very happy because it did everything I want a BL to do - there’s not much more I could ask of a show than this. It’s the closest Japan has come to perfect live action yaoi since Seven Days (and I never make that comparison lightly).
Squee watch-along here.
Tumblr media
My Ride
Thai 2022
Thai BL grew up with this pulp (the first ever to make my end of year top 10). It’s a truly lovely and special little show featuring the extremely rare pairing of sunshine/sunshine (AKA a cinnamon roll couple) plus mature explorations of relationships using one of the softest, sweetest, and most innocent friends to lovers vehicles. Kindly, overworked doctor meets broken-hearted motorcycle taxi driver in an “other side of the tracks” slow burn romance. The support cast is excellent, making for great friendship groups and family dynamics. With honest queer rep that adds to, but doesn’t impede, the story, and genuine conversation about the nature of class, wealth, and classism, not to mention communication, honesty, and respect for boundaries, you can’t go wrong with this show. In other news, I am a sucker for a single dimple.
Tumblr media
Takara & Amagi AKA Takara-kun to Amagi-kun
Japan 2022 I gnawed on my knuckles and squealed a lot with this BL. Reserved cool kid who must learn to communicate to keep the tiny disaster nugget he’s madly in love with. It is beyond charming: soft and gentle, packed with cuteness and high school angst, thirst, & yearning. Was there plot? Not really. Was it emotionally tense and paced well enough for me not to notice? Absolutely. Did I enjoy the hell out of it? Oh yes.
Tumblr media
Kiseki: Dear to Me
Taiwan 2023
The plot is totally ridiculous and slightly unhinged, but that’s normal for Taiwan. It involves all the tropes under a very casual framework of gay mafia gangs + food = love. Absolutely every character is queer. There’s a gum-ball machine of cameos, elder gay rep, great chemistry from all pairs, and a KILLER side couple. As a result Kiseki is a poster child for Taiwanese BL, and I happen to love Taiwanese BL. Bonus? They also managed to END IT WELL, which we cannot expect from Taiwan.
Tumblr media
My Personal Weatherman AKA Taikan Yoho
Japan 2023
This style of live action yaoi really only works from Japan. Basically: boys who fell in love in college end up living together but both are so repressed they actually don't realize they're in love. It's higher heat than we usually get from Japan's HEA stuff, and that part is also very well done, but it leaned into the "why don't they just talk for fuck's sake?" trope which is only exacerbated into undiluted frustration by the fact that they're already fucking. It's great, but watching requires more patience than usual, even for Japan.
Tumblr media
Our Dining Table AKA Bokura no Shokutaku
Japan 2023
A lonely salaryman and talented cook gets accidentally adopted by a college kid and his little brother. I was always gonna love this show if they stuck to the manga (which is very dear to my heart). And they did, paralleling it almost exactly. It’s a quiet & cozy little parable of found family alleviating loneliness. Possibly too slow for some but definitely high up there for me as the best of what Japan can do with softness (like Restart After Come Back Home). It’s only flaw (if I dare say such a thing) is that it is not really “romantic.” Lovely & sweet but the romance beats are being used to build a family relationship, not just couple intimacy, but that's OK with me. This is a very safe show for anyone to watch.
Tumblr media
Step By Step
Thai 2023
This was Thailand’s answer to The New Employee, and everything I loved about that show I loved about this one. This office romance between a stern boss and sweet subordinate felt more authentic to cubical work than previous Thai BLs of this ilk. That authenticity added tension to the narrative and its characters development (how novel). I also really enjoyed the charming side characters and the brothers' relationship to each other (although I could have done without that brother's side BL).
Tumblr media
Long Time No See
Korea (Strongberry) 2017
Catfishing assassins on either side of a turf war who fall in love not knowing they are on opposite sides. Or do they? Suspenseful plot, good fight sequences, mature characters, hot sexitimes and even hotter beating the shit out of each other and kissing while covered in blog (this came from KOREA?), plus an HEA. One of the hidden gems of the BL genre.
Tumblr media
About Youth
Taiwan 2022
A truly lovely little coming of age high school BL with a classic YA low drama but high angst and an earnest depth. I didn’t even mind the singing, and that’s saying a lot. A weak seme/uke dynamic but tons of BL tropes (both rare in a high school setting but common for Taiwan) makes this one feel both sweet and colored by real world authenticity and grit.
Some of these shows ALSO appeared on Viki or iQIYI, but these BLs will appear only once on these round up posts (here for Gaga), not on the other platforms top 10.

This list updated Spring 2024, not responsible for cool stuff that aired on Gaga (or was taken off the platform) after that date.
This is part of a series more here:

Propaganda:
For Orufrey: "They're tragic wlw who have devoted their lives to each other since they were kids. They live together, they cook together, they're raising four girls together and they're doing the best they can. Olruggio would do anything for Qifrey if Qifrey would just Let Him 😭 but Qifrey is dead-set on protecting Olruggio and keeping him safe and in the dark no matter what it costs... i cant 😭..."
"Man I don't know they just have the vibes. They have toxic yuri energy but they are two grown men. They've known each other since their apprentice days and have stuck together ever since. Qifrey's main magic type was something he took up because Olruggio proposed that he learned to control the water he feared. They live together away from most of society with Qifrey's four apprentices, living the sapphic cottagecore (ateliercore???) dream. Qifrey, due to the fact that his eyesight is very much failing, something which is very problematic when it comes to witches, who need their eyesight more than most, is getting very desperate to get all he lost to the Brimhats, the witches who took one of his eyes and his memories, and Olruggio ends up noticing this pursuit and is implied to have done this more than once. Qifrey does not want Olruggio to know about both his failing eyesight and his goals, so he ends up completely wiping Olruggio's memory of those things, and laments that Olruggio is a kind person, and one who would most likely forgive him again, but also one who would try to save him, even when he didn't want to be saved. He also apologized right up until the moment Olruggio's memories of his secret were gone. In general I think chapter 40 is the somewhat toxic guy yuri chapter ever. I'm very tired so I do not know how to explain any of this, I just thought "wow Orufrey reminds me of this one poll I saw on Tumblr" and then spent three days straight hunting for your blog before completely forgetting my reasoning for Orufrey being yuri right before I submitted this."
For Bruabba: "Jojo transcends gender"
"Just look at them. So much wlw swag, Bruno was also designed to have a 'feminine silhouette' (mangaka's words, not mine). Abbacchio follows Bruno on a suicide mission to kill the mafia boss after telling Bruno he's only at peace by his side. They met while Abbachio was in the middle of a depressive spiral after his friend's death (that he's partially responsible for) and Bruno gave him a new purpose in life. Abbachio is kind of a bitch overall but he's always protective of Bruno and his nicer side mostly shows around him. Tragic mafia gay yuri"

The X-factor
Once upon a time in a small village in Croatia, there lived a talented and popular 21-year-old singer named Miho. Known for his handsome looks and captivating voice, he would perform shirtless and impress the crowds, especially the girls of his town. Although he loved going to the gym and taking care of his body, he wasn't very ambitious and hadn't finished university. Miho lived with his strict mother, who insisted on him paying rent.
Tumblr media
One day, an opportunity knocked on Miho's door when he was given a chance to audition for the popular TV show, X-Factor. Excited yet nervous, he gave his best performance. While the jury was impressed with his voice, two of them remained unconvinced due to his arrogance. However, Miho was granted the benefit of the doubt and advanced to the next round.
With each passing round, Miho wowed the audiences and eventually reached the finale, where he won the entire competition. As a reward, he embarked on a tour across Croatia for a whole season. The journey was tough, and the contract demanded countless shows without much monetary compensation.
When his contract ended, Miho decided to hire a manager named Vlad, who was experienced in dealing with young and arrogant stars. Vlad dedicated himself to making Miho famous. He orchestrated his appearances on various shows and magazines, ensuring that Miho earned a considerable amount of money. The following year was incredibly busy for Miho, with him being literally everywhere.
As New Year's Eve approached, Vlad approached Miho with a proposal to participate in Eurovision. Although Miho was initially unimpressed, believing it wouldn't be worth the investment, he eventually accepted the offer. Much to his surprise, he won Eurovision, with his performance being adored by the LGBTQ+ community. He was then scheduled to perform in major European cities during their gay pride celebrations.
The attention and fame started to go to Miho's head, making him more vain and arrogant. Working with him became increasingly challenging, prompting Vlad to come up with a plan to humble Miho. He pitched a short Netflix series to him, supposedly about a young soccer player. Intrigued, Miho signed the deals right away, and the press and fans went wild with excitement over his upcoming role as a Netflix star across Europe.
However, when Miho received the script, he was furious and immediately called Vlad. The story revolved around a soccer player who retired and fell into a life of partying, gambling, dealing with the mafia, and ultimately gaining weight. Miho asked Vlad to request changes to the script, particularly removing the part about the character gaining weight. But Vlad refused, stating that Miho had become impossible to work with. He presented Miho with a choice: accept the deal and continue being successful or decline and risk fading into obscurity.
Confused and torn, Miho considered his options. With the Netflix deal, he could potentially stop working within a few years and maintain his fame and wealth. Reluctantly, he chose to accept the deal, much to Vlad's satisfaction.
Miho started indulging in larger portions of his mother's cooking, opting to skip the gym as the compliments about his newfound body became more frequent. He began gaining weight, and soon his little pudgy belly became a recognizable feature in the media. Insecure about his changing appearance, Miho decided to stop performing shirtless.
Tumblr media
Surprisingly, his fans loved him even more in his new body, finding him more huggable and relatable. He attracted more attention and found himself with more female admirers, leading to more intimate encounters. Miho's eating continued to escalate, and he even made appearances on cooking shows. The filming of the Netflix series proceeded smoothly, and he quickly achieved his goal weight thanks to his mother's generous portions.
Tumblr media
Once the filming was completed, Vlad assigned a trainer and implemented a rigorous workout regime for Miho. However, Miho found it challenging to control his eating habits. The food his mother prepared was simply too delicious. Vlad grew strict and instructed the trainer to focus on bulking up Miho's muscles rather than helping him lose weight. When progress seemed too slow, Miho was given steroids, resulting in increased muscle growth. He relished in his new appearance, and his fans went wild over his transformed look. Unfortunately, the steroids also brought along anger issues.
Tumblr media
The Netflix series became a massive success, prompting the announcement of a second season. Miho was hesitant due to the weight gain involved, as he felt unfit. However, the thought of the incredible compensation made him reconsider. He decided to proceed with the second season, much to his own dismay.
Once again, Angela, Miho's co-star in the series, embraced her role as the catalyst for his weight gain. She not only supported his eating habits but also sparked a romantic relationship with him. They moved in together, which made filming more convenient. Angela cooked large Italian dinners and even hand-fed him tiramisu on the sofa after their meals, resulting in Miho rapidly gaining weight. Their love life was remarkable, filled with passion and desire.
Tumblr media
When filming is over Vlad orders him to get in shape again. Angela dislikes it as she is very jealous. She does everything she can to not let hem lose weight. She even stops the sex until he eats. Vlad is annoyed, he gives Miho another steroid program. Miho is getting anger issues again but he gets in shape. Cant get thin like he was but bigger muscle, absoute beast.
Tumblr media
Netflix offers season 3, Angela really wants it as he would get fat again. Miho dislikes the thought, he was too heavy. Unfit, lazy, slow, out of breath. But again, the money is so much better. He decides to do it. The fat cells immediately fill up again and he reaches his goal weight very fast.
Tumblr media
When the third season concluded, Vlad proposed another opportunity for Miho to get dit. A Men's Health cover shoot and a significant sum of money. Angela strongly opposed it, fueling her jealousy. She did everything in her power to prevent Miho from losing weight, even withholding sex until he ate more. Vlad grew frustrated, but Miho ultimately agreed to the offer. He returned to taking steroids, despite his own misery, and posed as a muscular beast for the photoshoot.
Tumblr media
Angela moved out, she couldn't handle the anger issues from the steroids and she really wanted Miho fat.
Although Miho received immense praise, he yearned for Angela's presence. As soon as the shoot was over, he abandoned the steroids and workout routine, pleading for Angela to come back. She returned bearing food, and within weeks, Miho regained his weight, surpassing his previous size. He aimed to keep Angela happy, believing that a happy wife meant a happy life

Oh noes - I've fallen for the side dishes. Ai Di is my little murder mitten and Chen Li is his comfort blankie/straitjacket. I love them.
Tumblr media
Ruei and ZongYi are still keeping my interest as well - I can see elements of Jack from HiStory: Trapped in Ruei - he's smiley and his love language is cooking for his baby. I'm also enjoying the fact that every (named) mafia character in the show appears to be gay, including the Boss (and Juan definitely has feels for Teng even if I'm not sure it's reciprocated yet).
Of course I'm worried that our future doctor is not going to be a future doctor because we know he ends up in prison with Ai Di for 4 years and he deserves to be a doctor; he's worked so hard. On the other hand maybe being pampered by his hot, culinary talented lover for the rest of his life will be compensation? It probably would for me.*
It always amazes me how straightforward the girls are in BL. There's no messing about, they just ask their crushes to be their boyfriend. is it like this in the real world? It certainly wasn't when I was at school/uni in the UK - we would rather have DIED.
*yes I'm shallow. Don't @ me.

I love IkeVamp, but there are some issues with it.
I don’t like how they made Jean (Joan) into a man. If they didn’t want to add a female character, they should have chosen a different historical figure. I know it’s just a game and it shouldn’t matter, but they took away the achievements of one of the greatest women in history and stuck them on to a man (you can just say you’re homophobic, Cybird, we don’t care).
Next is something I will admit I am guilty of. Leonardo was gay and you can not change my mind. There are no records or proof that he was ever with a woman, but there are a lot of well based theories showing he was gay. Adding him in and having him as a love interest for a female player invalidates his sexuality. Once again, he is one of my favourites so I am guilty of this, but I wouldn’t be if Cybird left him alone.
Now a little rant about Mitsuki (I do like her, but there are times I just can’t do it). She’s not naive, but completely clueless with everything. Do you remember that mafia AU event a while ago? In Arthur, Theo and Vincent’s story, she infiltrated their base or whatever. When Arthur mentions something about her identity, she responds with, “What?” In this AU she was an undercover cop. Of course they were going to be suspicious of you! She’s ditsy in the annoying way and can’t figure out shit for herself. She also cries too much, and she falls in love within a week. She always jumps in front of the suitor with her arms stretched wide, then when someone goes to strike her she just keeps her eyes shut. It happens ALL. THE FUCKING. TIME. The only “talents” that are portrayed in her are the ability to cook and clean. All the suitors are brave, strong boys while she is a housewife. They enforced outdated gender roles in this game, and it seriously pisses me off.
If you look at MCs like Mai, she is similar, but she’s stronger emotionally and she’s actually funny at times.
I wish Cybird would be more historically accurate, and stop repeating the MCs as well as tropes. It’s getting really annoying and makes me want to stop playing these games.

KinnPorsche: The Recap, episode 2
Master post!
EPISODE 2, HERE WE GO. Strap in, because this one's a rough one (and a LONG one; 33% longer than the last one!). Content warnings for humiliation, major abuse of power, ableist language, and more humiliation. (But I am a wuss about humiliation, so this recap at least will be wincing through it on tiptoes.) Also, uh, fish death. And if all that doesn't make you excited to read it, what on Earth will?
Tumblr media
We open with Big and Ken showing Porsche around the compound's bodyguard-training facilities, which are extensive: there's an enormous pool, a shooting range, a gym, etc. Bodyguards are only allowed out on missions; they are not allowed phones. What a great job! Porsche gets sassy about whether this is a job or a prison; Big and Ken try to put him in his place; he points out that the boss put him in charge of them last episode, remember? It devolves into a fight, unfortunately in the - I guess central bodyguard hangout room? Because the result is a lot of guns.
Tumblr media
[WHAT A GREAT JOB.]
However, at this moment Dad's bodyguard - I should probably start using his name, which is Chan - comes in to yell at everybody about how the LAST main rule is that all bodyguards must get along and not fight with each other (yelling is obviously the best possible way to communicate this lesson). Everyone puts their guns away, but no one forgets. Chan finishes the tour, which includes a 24/7 medical facility that no one in this entire series EVER USES despite needing it SO BAD SO OFTEN. Finally, Porsche is shown to his quarters. He goes in to find a really good-sized apartment - though furnished entirely from IKEA - and is very pleasantly surprised; I imagine he probably figured he'd be sleeping in barracks or something.
He does, however, have a roommate, to whom he and we are introduced when Pete comes bopping out of the bedroom wearing a tank top, a towel over his shoulder, and absolutely nothing else. He gives some jabs at a heavy bag in the corner, picks up some weights, turns around - OH SHIT IT'S THE NEW GUY.
Tumblr media
[Also white handprints all over his body, which I cannot figure out. Is this a Thai thing? A Mafia thing? A pantsless workout thing? I am mystified.]
We cut to them sharing food Pete's grandma sent him, because Pete is wholesome as everloving fuck, and learn that Pete bodyguards Tankhun, Kinn's older brother. Porsche is surprised to learn that Kinn's a younger child. What a jerk, throwing his weight around like he's the first son! Pete informs Porsche that there are three sons: Mr. Tankhun, Mr. Kinn, and Mr. Kim - I have to assume the last two are less of a proofreader's nightmare in Thai. Mr. Kim, we are told, has moved out and lives on his own, although he visits occasionally. Porsche asks if Tankhun is a psycho like Kinn; Pete says that Kinn is the most normal one in the house. For understandable reasons, Porsche has a hard time believing this.
Anyway, then Big waltzes in without knocking to tell Porsche he's wanted in the kitchen. Turns out Porsche is being summoned to bring Kinn some snacks while he's at the shooting range. Porsche goes, but is offended: he's his bodyguard, not his waiter, right? The cook says, "You must be new." Porsche remains offended. He decides he's going to take his revenge, which in principle I approve of, because this whole situation just BEGS for some kind of retribution, but in practice is such a terrible, terrible idea. He grabs some wasabi paste and inserts it into the bottom of one of the drinking straws.
Tumblr media
[Furtive Wasabi Poisoning was the name of my punk band in college.]
We cut to the shooting range, where Kinn is doing target practice alongside his (only) friends, Time and Tay. Time and Tay are VERY cool, VERY gay, and VERY second-generation-money. They are a couple, although it is sort of unclear how monogamous, how serious, and how happy they are - not 100% of any of those, anyway. Porsche comes in with the drinks, Tay notices him, and says, "Who's this? Your new guy? Looks like your type of guy." We will eventually learn what Kinn's type has been up to this point, and it is WAIFISH NYMPHS, so I must assume this is a dig on how all of the Theerapanyakun bodyguards are just impossibly hot. Kinn says, annoyed, "My dad brought him in. His name is Porsche. You can use him all you want," which is a sentence I would love to be able to dissect in its original language. Time leans in and says, "Tell your dad to find me one."
Tumblr media
[Time and Tay always do this interesting thing where they sit bracketing Kinn, instead of next to each other. Commentary on their relationship troubles? Protectiveness of their sad single friend? Blocking direction putting the main character in the middle? I want to KNOW.]
The three of them have a conversation that is basically Hi, We're Rich Young Douchebags; Porsche cannot stop himself, and comments to his buddy the ceiling about what assholes they are. Kinn, sharply: "What did you say?" Porsche: "Huh? Uh, I said the weather is rad," pointing at the fluorescent lights. (My KINGDOM to know what Thai word they translated as "rad" and why.) Then Tay, rather than Kinn, reaches for the drinks first, and we enter comedy-of-errors territory. Porsche has to object, and then flail around and say that the cook specially made THIS drink for Kinn, which Kinn is not so dumb as to fall for; he says he's not thirsty and Porsche should drink it, and Porsche protests but ultimately has to drink it, et cetera. Porsche suffers greatly, Kinn is very amused, and I do not like it but I know worse is to come.
So then our three assholes are back to target practice; in the background, Porsche murmurs a snarky criticism of Kinn's accuracy, and the music turns ominous. Kinn says, "I'm bored with paper targets. Hey," to Porsche, "put an apple over there." Porsche saaaaaunters over to the table, gets an apple, saaaaaunters down to where the targets are, and says, "Okay, where should I put it?" And of course, Kinn says, "On your head." Time and Tay think this is a joke, but it is not a joke! Porsche hesitates, and Kinn says, "What are you waiting for? Or are you scared?" Which I guess is Kinn is giving him an out. For which he must admit that he is chicken, and therefore, I don't know, sacrifice his masculinity on a ritual altar or something, but at least(???) it is not a do-this-or-you're-fired order. And of course, he does it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[A bad day at work.]
Over Time and Tay's protests, Kinn gets the apple without breaking a sweat (I do enjoy his cocky little stance), says he wants to go eat, and calls over his shoulder at Porsche to bring him a coffee in the dining room. LET HIM WASH THE APPLE OUT OF HIS HAIR AT LEAST. I would not blame anyone for noping out of this pairing right here, but I PROMISE if you do hang in there, it gets better! (Eventually. Mostly. Though if you're into apple-shooting dubcon, this probably is indeed the show for you.)
We cut to Porsche walking coolly down a hallway, turning into a room with an espresso maker - and nearly falling over from the adrenaline crash and having to catch himself on the counter. We once again begin the comedy of errors: he lights a cigarette - and then has to throw it quickly in the trash when the kitchen lady comes to check on him, and THEN once he's muscled her back out, the trash is on fire and THEN the sprinkler starts up, at which point Kinn comes looking for him (WHY?) and is extremely angry. My dude, he had to wash the apple out of his hair SOMEHOW.
(I do think - if we're going to take this whole sequence seriously, which I am incapable of not doing - okay, SERIOUS INTERLUDE: a big takeaway from this is that Kinn's perspective on the world is totally skewed. Taken alongside the mafioso sequence in episode 1, you can argue that he's been so overexposed to deadly danger that he's burned out on it; he treats it very casually, and doesn't seem to quite understand Porsche's more typical reactions. I also think that he and Porsche might actually be playing the same game here: neither of them WANTS this, so maybe if it's unpleasant enough, the other will call it quits! The problem, of course, is that a) Kinn is willing to play with gun-firing stakes instead of just wasabi stakes, and b) Kinn can misbehave and face basically no consequences, and the same is not true for Porsche. There's probably also a lot to say here about Kinn's inability to empathize with someone outside of his immediate circle, and the conflict that's happening because Porsche is nominally inside it, but Kinn didn't consent to that and hasn't accepted it. But also he's hitting someone who cannot hit back, and that SUCKS. Kinn: stop it! END SERIOUS INTERLUDE.)
Anyway, now Chan is standing over Porsche, making him do push-ups on the lawn; Porsche is unhappy, but undaunted, and complains bitterly to a totally unappreciative audience. Three hundred in, Chan tells a him to get back to his regular training and walks off, leaving Porsche to yell after him, "Where's the restroom?" No answer, so he uses the koi pond instead, which will definitely not come back to haunt him! Then there's more training, including a test where bodyguards get tied up and shoved into the pool, and have to untie themselves and get out. (Big wants him to drown SO BAD, but Porsche manages to come in last, which leads Ken to snark at him in English. Chan's instructions for this bit are also in English - they use it in this series like a combination of a status symbol and a weapon: understand, or suffer.) Then shooting practice, which he is not good at.
Tumblr media
[Big has to keep up his skillz even with one arm out of commission; the better to keep an eye on The Interloper, I guess.]
Lunchtime: he complains to Pete about the training and the food, but Pete is too Stockholmed to really get it, which I suppose is a harbinger of Things To Come. But they are interrupted…by Mr. Tankhun.
Tumblr media
[I fucking love this shot of Tankhun. So pink! So mad! Arm and Pol so nervous!]
Tankhun is operatically upset and angry because his beloved koi Elizabeth and Sebastian have passed from this mortal realm, and he KNOWS THE CULPRIT: Arm, the techie bodyguard (you can tell because he's the only one who wears glasses, of course) has the security footage of Porsche using a koi pond as a urinal. Oh no! Tankhun makes dire pronouncements of punishment. Porsche is pretty bewildered by Tankhun's whole deal, which is fair, because it's pretty bewildering. (Here we cut briefly to Kinn and Chan talking about Porsche's scores on the training, which are not awesome. Kinn wants to cut him loose, obviously, but Chan says Dad says give him more time. Kinn, frustrated: "When Big is fully recovered, we'll talk about this again." Kinn wants SO BAD for all of this to just not be happening.)
Tankhun's punishment turns out to be, I kid you not, putting Porsche in a mermaid costume and making him hang out in a pool for Tankhun's (and all the bodyguards') amusement and delight. Pete tries to protest, but folds immediately, and it is perhaps meant to be funny but SOME OF US have a hair-trigger reaction to public humiliation for UNSPECIFIED MIDDLE SCHOOL REASONS and would prefer this scene never happened. I do think it's an important Tankhun character note: he's silly and campy and adorable, and sometimes you can argue he doesn't realize he's being cruel, but sometimes (and…possibly always) he definitely, definitely does.
Tumblr media
[I do, as always, really enjoy his ensemble.]
Then Kinn shows up (with Big, who sees the mermaid situation and clearly thinks his birthday has come early), and asks Tankhun what he's doing. There follows an interesting back-and-forth that's pretty typical of their super-weird power dynamic, where Kinn isn't exactly telling Tankhun that he has to do something or else, but is suggesting pretty hard that it's in Tankhun's best interests to cut it out. Tankhun hems and haws, but eventually departs, bringing the bodyguards with him. And THEN Kinn has to be a jerk again - offers Porsche his hand, and when Porsche takes it and sincerely thanks him, pulls it back and says that he's not rescuing him, he just needs him to accompany him to an event tonight. Hey, Kinn, I know you really don't want to appear to have ANY positive feelings for this guy, but he's a real actual HUMAN PERSON under YOUR AUTHORITY! My guy! Get it together! (Spoilers: Kinn does not get it together anytime soon, and actually I just tried to think of a time when Kinn definitely for real has it together, and the answer is NEVER.)
So Porsche dries off and puts some clothes on, and tells Pete that he now believes that his boss is crazier than Porsche's. Pete tells Porsche, "When Mr. Tankhun was little, he was kidnapped. He was traumatized. That's why he's a little absurd." Porsche is understandably not that interested in empathizing with Tankhun in this moment. Pete allows that the whole family is also kind of absurd, but says that Mr. Kinn is the least weird. "That's why Mr. Korn let him succeed him. Otherwise, the whole family would be doomed." We get a DUN DUN DUNNN to that, but Porsche of course does not particularly care if the whole family is doomed. (Honestly, at this stage, it would be forgiveable if the viewer did not, either.)
There follows a scene where they get to requisition guns, which I mention only because Porsche thinks it's SO AWESOME ("it's like James Bond!") and it's nice to see him happy. Then Kinn shows up and personally hauls Porsche off to dress him up; I think the implication here is that he thinks Porsche is kind of low-class and doesn't trust him to wear a tie without help. So he brings Porsche to their…in-house tailor? Sure. And he gets him a regulation suit, and picks a good tie, and is holding it up to Porsche in front of a mirror to make sure that it works for him, and he looks over - and you can just SEE him going…oh. Oh NO. OH NO. WAIT. NO.
Tumblr media
["Have I been behaving so badly because I'm ATTRACTED to him? Shit. Shit. Shit."]
Time for the event! It's a product launch for a product that is definitely an actual sponsor of KinnPorsche: The Series in real life, which is a very funny way to integrate a sponsor. Porsche is extremely happy to be here; he uses his technical Dad-given authority to order Ken far away to guard the door, finds a nice corner next to a champagne waiter, and - barely hesitates. FREE CHAMPAGNE FOR PORSCHE. He has had a very hard day. (I just tried to work out if all of this episode's events have happened in a single day. It is at least possible that yes, which is insane.) Kinn notices, but he is in the middle of giving a speech; Porsche toasts him and keeps going.
Cut to Kinn in the bathroom, washing his hands; the door opens and a Glamorous Woman comes in. "Oh - I'm sorry," she says, "I thought this was the ladies' room," very sexily and insincerely. She leans suggestively against the door. Kinn: "I'm sorry, you're not my type." Someone trying to Evilly Seduce someone who is not into their gender at all is always hilarious to me, can we do this trope more often? Surely more canons would benefit from this.
Tumblr media
[Would've worked on me.]
Beautiful lady attacks! We cut to Porsche, who has totally laid waste to Champagne Waiter's stash. Ken comes up: "Where's Mr. Kinn?" Porsche: "Oh, over there, you know…" He is not over there. Ken hauls Porsche off to go look for him, goes one way, sends Porsche the other way. Glamorous Woman is attacking Kinn with a nightstick and really destroying this bathroom; Porsche pokes his head in to see her pressing Kinn against the wall, and at first is like, "Oh, hey, nice work," and is actually about to turn around and leave when Kinn manages to get out, "She's killing me!" There follows an extremely inept fight. Porsche is victorious, but just barely, and Glamorous Woman gets away while he's puking in the sink. Porsche thinks he recognizes her from Yok's (which I tried to verify but absolutely could not), and Kinn says, tired and angry, "Everyone wants me dead. Even you." Porsche is shamefaced, even though I think he's kind of within his rights to want Kinn dead a LITTLE bit, and goes over to give him a hand up.
We cut to Glamorous Woman reporting to a Shadowy Boss, which I will straight-up reveal is Kinn's cousin Vegas, on whom MUCH more later. Turns out he wanted to get a read on Kinn's new bodyguard, I guess in case of future assassination plans? It's interesting that he chose to hire a Glamorous Woman, when he DEFINITELY knows that Kinn is not susceptible to women, glamorous or otherwise; I suppose that makes sense for a test strike, since it didn't have to succeed and it'd be unlikely to throw suspicion on him.
Anyway, back at the compound, Porsche is getting chewed out once again, hooraaaaaay - Big especially is FURIOUS that he let Kinn be put in danger like that, awww, Big. Kinn orders everyone out, and says, "Do you know that you're making a fool out of me?" Porsche is unmoved. Kinn: "Do you know you're getting on my nerves?" Porsche laughs, and Kinn grabs his lapels, which backfires, because Porsche straight-up passes out onto him, and they both fall backward onto a - circular bench - thing. Ken and Big poke their heads back in, and Kinn, flustered, orders them to take him away, he's done - lecturing him! Is what he was doing. Definitely.
Tumblr media
[Okay, what would YOU call that piece of furniture?]
(SERIOUS INTERLUDE: I do think this incident - does not excuse Kinn's overall terrible behavior, of course, but does kind of suggest an explanation for why he's being so erratic and awful; it's gotta be stressful to be like, "Hey, this guy doesn't want to be my bodyguard, how about he not be in charge of my safety, please," and have someone be like, "Tough, he is anyway," and then have to go out into the world knowing that you ARE at risk of being lethally attacked, because you HAVE recently been lethally attacked, and this dude who is loudly and deliberately making it known that he is not interested in doing this job, certainly not well, is the one who's going to be handling that. Cool! Of course, the solution to that is probably not make him hate me even more, but I can at least see how it would be a pretty big stressor. END SERIOUS INTERLUDE.)
Anyway, this recap is getting very tired, but NO MATTER: now it's a new day and the bodyguards are all lined up. Porsche asks Pete why, and is told that the minor family is visiting! How exciting! The minor family is Mr. Korn's younger brother, Mr. Gun - romanized many different ways, alas; I'm going with the one that does not ALSO START WITH K - and his two sons. (No daughters in this family? Nope, none. Deal with it.) Mr. Gun and his older son Vegas show up and are very fancy, and then Porsche is at liberty, so he heads to the garden with the koi pond for a cigarette, and we begin the comedy of errors once again: he sees a teenaged boy messing with the koi, thinks he's a maid's kid or something, tells him the hell off because he now knows the koi(!) are not(!) to be messed with(!); the kid sasses him, the kid ends up in the koi pond, the kid turns out to be Macao, younger son of Mr. Gun. Whoops.
Macao has Porsche dragged into the Big Important Meeting that all the adults are having; he is wet and bleeding from where he hit his head on the fountain, and VERY upset; honestly, he is a total brat but I can understand wanting consequences for someone who tossed you in a fountain and made you bleed, no matter what you said to them. (Maybe not the consequences that are on the table in this room, though.) Uncle Gun is, hilariously, really interested in blaming Kinn for hiring deficient personnel; Daddy Korn tries to walk it back; Porsche does not help himself EVEN A LITTLE BIT by indignantly trying to tell his side, and eventually Uncle Gun's henchpeople pull their weapons. (One thing that is consistently true here is that Porsche is totally incorrigible - he always bounces back, he's never truly cowed, and he talks to everyone as straightforwardly and rudely as he damn well pleases. It is gratifying, even as it does not serve him very well.)
Everything becomes very tense. Interestingly, even though a second ago he was taking responsibility, Dad gives Kinn a very clear you-handle-this look. Kinn draws himself up and says, "It's my fault that I can't handle my people." He gets up, walks slowly over to Porsche, looks him in the eye, and slaps him across the face. He gets him up against the wall by the throat, looking him right in the eye the whole time, and chokes him until he passes out. Then he walks back to his seat, picks up his coffee, and says, "Shall we carry on with the projects?" None of the minor family is happy, but the meeting continues.
Tumblr media
[All of Be on Cloud's extras are excellent, but I particularly enjoyed the clip in ep. 2's behind-the-scenes of Apo (Porsche) demonstrating to/on Mile (Kinn) where he should put his hand for maximum Dramatic Choking Effect.]
Night! Porsche wakes up on the couch in his apartment with Pete smoking nervously nearby. He is extremely angry, and ready to charge off and find Kinn (and do WHAT, I do not know). Pete tells him to calm down: Kinn just saved his life. If he hadn't choked him out, Porsche would 100% have been shot by the minor family. Porsche takes a little bit of convincing, but eventually accepts this, and Pete says, "Mr. Kinn used to be kind in the past. He loved his people. But the reason he became cruel…was not totally on him." Porsche wants to know what it was. Pete tells him to drop it, which I would not put up with if I were Porsche, and reiterates that Kinn saved Porsche's life today. "Don't forget to thank him," he says, and leaves Porsche looking thoughtful.
Kinn, meanwhile, is seated in the exact center of a white couch in a ridiculous sitting room, READING a coffee table book ENTITLED "COFFEE." Maybe he's not actually a real human, but an alien who's trying to pretend to be one, and that's why everything keeps going wrong?
Tumblr media
["I'm relaxing. You know, like people do? They sit on a couch with a book. Just like this!"]
Porsche comes in with actual coffee for him; Kinn pointedly does not look up from his cool book. Porsche says, "I didn't burn your house down this time." HA. Kinn keeps at the book - is he seriously giving Porsche the SILENT TREATMENT? I guess so. Porsche: "If you don't dare drink it, I'll show you first," and goes to try it himself, which finally gets Kinn to look at him, set the book aside, and motion for the coffee. Porsche gives it to him, and he takes it and says, "I'm just wondering who you are." He looks him up and down. "Are you the real Porsche?" Porsche: "I'm wondering the same thing - if that was really you. Because if that was the real you, you'd have let me get killed already." Kinn: "I just don't like that family either, that's all." Porsche rolls his eyes. Kinn tries the coffee; it is gross, which seems weird for a bartender. Kinn says, "I guess you can only make alcoholic drinks." Porsche, bewildered: "I don't think I have the wrong recipe." Kinn, performatively disgusted, picks his book up again.
Tumblr media
["They know what REAL coffee is in here."]
Kinn tells Porsche, "It's all right. Keep practicing, one day you'll be good at it," which is probably the politest he has yet been to Porsche. This whole sequence is - okay, a little silly, but also really interesting, because they're snarking, but neither of them seems genuinely mad anymore. We saw Porsche's moment of transition, when he believed Pete saying that Kinn saved his life, but what about Kinn's? I think it happened the moment he stood up from the meeting table and took responsibility for Porsche, because Kinn definitely lives in a world where you're in or you're out, and by doing that, he was accepting that Porsche was in. And now we can see him taking Porsche's general attitude and responding with, "aw, this little troublemaker," rather than "this FUCKING guy is FUCKING UP my ALREADY FUCKED-UP LIFE," which I think is approximately where he was at before.
Then Tankhun comes sauntering in, wearing a beautiful marriage of a coat and a cape in the loudest possible neon floral print, and says, "Did you bleed Macau's head?" Porsche: "Well, I didn't mean to…" Tankhun cuts him off. "That's AWESOME." They play an honest-to-God record-scratching noise, and Tankhun proceeds to demand that Kinn trade him Porsche for Pete (Pete, present in the background, is delighted). Kinn hesitates for a second, but is not about to give up this opportunity to get rid of this problem - like, okay, HIS problem now, but still A PROBLEM - without either of them getting killed; he says sure, why not. Porsche is not happy, but everyone else in the room sure is.
Tumblr media
[Boy, it sucks to be Porsche.]
Final scene: Mr. Gun is on a balcony, thinking about a conversation he had with his brother, I guess today, about whether Korn is giving too much license to the bodyguards or WHAT; Korn says that people sometimes deserve second chances…or third chances…Gun is like, "So you give those to everybody?" and Korn walks off without a word. Gun is a total mustache-twirling villain in this series but sometimes it's pretty easy to see how he turned out that way. Vegas comes out to see how he's doing, and Gun tells him to keep an eye on this new bodyguard, Porsche. Vegas tries to ask why, and Gun snaps at him to just do as he says, allowing us to fully witness the cycle of trauma, hooray.
Tumblr media
[Oh, Uncle Gun? He's the one wearing a colorful scarf. Which scene am I talking about? ALL OF THEM.]
Ugh, okay, that was a long one! This is probably my least favorite episode of KinnPorsche; very little happens in it that I truly enjoy, which makes it weird that I had to go write 4500 words about all that stuff. Or not that weird, I guess, because I really do feel compelled to integrate all those terrible things into my understanding of these assholes.
(One of the issues, I think, is that this is Porsche's "fish out of water at your new job!" episode, which is already a hard sell for me because I don't like embarrassing scenes. BUT of course, there are also the exacerbating factors of 1) Porsche not wanting to be there, 2) no one else wanting him there either, and 3) it's THE MAFIA and the consequences of failure are TORTURE AND DEATH. So something that should be kind of funny (wasabi straw, interrupting an important meeting) turns into something NOT funny (apple on the head, choked to unconsciousness). And even the stuff that hypothetically COULD be funny, like involuntary mermaid cosplay, is so intensely humiliating, and so symbolic of the absolute power the Theerapanyakuns have over their people, that I at least cannot enjoy them even a little bit. And I think the goal is for there to be a kind of a back-and-forth: like, Porsche does something shitty to Kinn, Kinn does something shitty back to Porsche, but - for me at least - the effect is negated by the apocalyptic difference in their weight class.)
Let's see, what DID I enjoy about this episode? Time and Tay are always a joy - a rich spoiled joy, but a joy - as are Tankhun's outfits. Naked bopping Pete is fantastic, of course. All of Big's moments are great, possibly because Big is the only one who is absolutely straight-up enjoying Porsche's suffering, and so makes for a nice avatar. I also do like the many and obvious signs that Kinn is Not Okay; I don't like their effect on Porsche, but that vulnerability is one of my favorite things about the series.
Anyway, it is - well, okay, I cannot say "it's all uphill from here!" with a straight face, but there is MUCH TO LOOK FORWARD TO, how about that. Stay tuned for next time, which has 100% more shirtless partying!

Back when I binged glee in covid I used to bother my then friend, now ex about all my glee opinions and stuff and we somehow made this running joke that sebastian was a brown boy because why else would someone have so little chill about a school extracurricular right?
It started as a joke, and it's little more than crack even now but the thought of a biracial seb (sebu as we called him) is still funny and it endeared him to me. Through him we'd go on to make fantastical stories about the universe in which he was half brown. I don't know if I need to mention I'm brown too but yeah
The lore went as follows Sebastian's father Arshad Smythe was a second generation south asian immigrant who studied law in France where he met Mrs. Smythe.
we made him the most run of the mill brown dad imaginable and we loved him so much because of it , he was obviously just based on our fathers and uncles and brothers. The people we loved, who loved us in return, the people whose dad jokes and overbearing old timer antics we rolled our eyes at.
Mr and Mrs Smythe alternated living between France and Ohio, where Mr. Smythes childhood home was. It was a dilapidated suburban duplex complete with ugly beige carpeting. But Mr. Smythe just couldn't bear to part with it so he never sold the house or moved out. He would buy his son the best cars and enroll him in the best schools. He'd spend on everything else but he just couldn't change anything about the house his mother had lived in.
Sebastian and his mother understood. She had been important to them too. Samantha Smythe remembered all the times she sat on the floor of this house so the older woman could rub coconut oil into her hair. Sebastian remembered the spicy pickles she cooked in her kitchen, how good they tasted. So they understood.
Burt Hummel was an old friend of Mr. Smythes. He'd babysit Sebastian every once in a while, Santana too. So Kurt, Sebastian and Santana were all friends that got upto fun shenanigans in this world.
Sebastian had a cat called Maribelle, who scratched and bit everyone except for their trio and Mr. Smythe, she was also a mafia boss and an interdimensional/ divine immortal being who had a life of crime on the weekends. He had found her as a stray and begged his dad to let him keep keep her. He did albeit begrudgingly as all dads do, and then quickly became best friends with her as all dads do. I drew cartoons of Kurt and Sebastian as preteens chilling on beach chairs with sunglasses on, in the front yard of Sebastian's grandma's house. Mr Smythe , a portly gentleman with a half bald head with borders of dark hair lining the sides, wearing thick framed glasses would yell at them about their homework to which they'd reply "It's Sunbathe Saturday, Dad!"
Mr Smythe would then grumble and pick up Maribelle who had been in the process of burying a man, unbeknownst to him.
We had so many really specific just brown people things jokes about Sebastian, like him putting 'manja', a type of liquid glass used in competitive kite racing in South Asia in the rock salt slushie. Just him in general being really excited about sharp drinks after his brown cousin back in his home country show him the ropes.
Him being the kind of typical annoying uncultured highschool boy, ' kamla', who hung around coffee shops all day.
Him challenging his father to a game of cards at age eleven by making Mr. Smythe promise if he won he would have to love him unconditionally. Just as he pulled out the last ace he yelled out 'I'm gay but you love unconditionally no take backs!" And ran up the stairs yelling "no take backs!" As santana and kurt blocked mr smythes entrance to the stairway by popping ill timed party poppers.
If Seb ever got into any scuffles with them during play time he'd fire off a flurry of mixed French and Bengali curse causing Kurtana to exchange confused glances like, did you get any of that ?
His early s3 backstory was literally Mr Smythe being a little bit of a tiger parent. But then when he breaks down because of the Dave thing his dad makes amends saying "I want you to be the best at everything seb, and that includes being a person."
The scandals fix it in this universe was Maribelle scratching Blaines eyes out when she overhears about it from kurt and seb discussing it.
I figured later that Mr Smythe must have taken his wife's name because it's hardly a brown name even in Christian circles, to which my ex had replied you only realised now?
There's really no words in English to properly translate the jokes and their cultural significance to us. Parts of brown seb universe bled into my shitposts and fics but I could never part with him fully. Because the world wasn't ready for or interested in him. Since then I've graduated college, I've lost access to the Instagram account we used to text about this world in, and I've lost my ex and I've lost that time in my life, Brown Seb only exists in my memory now. So now maybe it's time to give him to the world so he exists outside of it too. Idk if there are Desi gleeks out there who get the jokes, but til then this post is just for me to remember

He enjoys learning all sorts of music on guitar, but he's most proficient in rock and alternative, and you can hear those influences in his own playing. He's got a really diverse set of influences too.
He's a sucker for cheesy pet names like Sweetie-Pie or Honey-Bunches.
His favorite ice cream flavor is Butterscotch.
He can paint beautiful watercolour paintings, mainly landscapes of Scotland, but also very detailed self portraits (He's got lots of portraits about me 😂).

The most confident dumbass ever.
Is everything Emily wants to be.
Loves wearing makeup and has an extensive skincare routine.
Is on a diet, not because she's fat or wants to lose weight, she just wants to stay fit.
Every Saturday is her cheat day.
Is very flirty but once she got with Dane, she only flirts with him.
Is a switch in bed.
She thinks of Emily as her long lost little sister and will protect her at all costs.
She loves a good challenge and will not hesitate to fight for those she loves.
Although she is a hard head and confident on the outside, she is very insecure about herself like her body, beauty, strength, almost everything.
Loves to draw and is very good at it. She has a realistic but abstract style.
Plays the violin.
Is very stubborn and will not give up until she gets what she wants (Dane can attest XD).
Sometimes has nightmares about her old railway and controller and will wake up in tears. Dane will comfort her.
Is a bit snappy at times to those around her.
Marilyn Monroe is her idol and has always wanted to be like her.

So childish, but it cracks me up EVERYTIME
What's your favorite animal to see at the zoo? The only zoo that I've been to that has my all time favorite animal to see is the Tampa zoo, I love to see the Manatees, I cry every time. If I'm at a different zoo I like to see their turtles and the amphibians.
What's your go to quick meal to cook/make at home? hot sandwiches. Like with good bread and deli meat and cheese, then pressed.
What's your go to meal to cook someone to impress them? My wife says my chicken parm is really good so I'd probably make that.
What's something you want to do better? Take care of myself in general, form better routines.
If you're working do you like your job? I do! I'm working in health care in a capacity that doesn't drive me into panic attacks everyday.
Do you collect anything? What? Books!!!
If you were trapped in a kids tv show, what show would you be okay with being trapped in? When I was a kid I loved Strawberry Shortcake and I think I'd like to be there because like fruity scented friendships sound great.
An adults tv show? CRIMINAL MINDS

What's the most obscure thing you've had to google for a fanfic you were writing/reading? I mostly just google words that I'm not familiar with lol. Or like if its an AU based on another show or something then I'll google the show to get a run down. The most recent "weird" thing I was googling about was the types of guns because it was like a Mafia AU.

Getting to Know Your BL Mutuals
Tumblr media
rules: answer the questions and tag some people. include the tag ‘g2ky BL mutuals 2022’ on your post so we can find everyone’s answer.
i got tagged by @sapphicblight !
What have been BLs that took you by surprise this year?
I mean Kinnporsche is THE one. I kept seeing so much hype about it and I was reluctant to start it because of the mafia theme. Since I don't really like to watch a lot of gun violence stuff, I was very reluctant to watch. I didn't actually start to watch it until late August when someone put a gif of Porsche in his underwear grinding on Kinn on my Twitter feed and I was like "HOLD ON??? 🤨🤨🤨". So glad I changed my mind and actually gave it a try cause now I'm OBSESSED lol.
What have been BLs that you felt a bit disappointed with this year?
Kissable Lips, I wanted it to be SO GOOD cause vampire but yeah... It didn't do anything I wanted it to do lol. Also, please don't hate me but... Vice Versa. Like parts of it were really nice don't get me wrong but I felt like the aspect of being soulmates or 'portkeys' was not explored as much as I wanted it to.
What has been your favorite BL this year?
Kinnporsche obviously! But also Old Fashioned Cupcake, Semantic Error, and The Eclipse <3
Favorite BL/GL couples (not just of 2022)
Oh lord... So many but let's try to remember all shall we?
Vegas and Pete, Kinn and Porsche, Kurosawa and Adachi, Prapai and Sky, Wen Kexing and Zhou Zishu, Du Pusa and Qian Qiao, Chu Wanning and Mo Ran, BEEFLEAF, Xie Lian and Hua Cheng, You Yi and Yan Wei, also maybe Tang Fan and Sui Zhou. And many many more .-.
If you had to suggest a BL for someone what would it be?
Well since Kinnporsche is kinda LOL heavy on some areas, I might recommend Semantic Error! If it doesn't have to be of this year then Kieta Hatsukoi, Restart After Coming Back Home, I Told Sunset About You, Manner Of Death, Bad Buddy or Cherry Magic !
Also GLs of this year, definitely GAP, She Makes My Heart Flutter, and She Loves to Cook, She Loves to Eat! From other years, Couple of Mirrors!
What’s your non-BL favorite this year?
Well, I really don't watch much that isn't BL or GL. But Koisenu Futari made me cry SO MUCH, it was a really wholesome yet real watch about ace/aro people and what it's like to live in a society that doesn't understand it. Also My Androgynous Boyfriend was a fun watch while also bringing up matters about gender roles! ALSO Fujoshi, Ukkari Gay ni Kokuru (2019) was hard to watch because it was so real, but it was REALLY GOOD! It is about a closeted gay teen who finds out his female classmate reads BL, together they form an unconventional form of friendship and help each other grow comfortable with their identities. l I cried so much, and beware there is heavy stuff in there like suicide attempt BUT, it is there for a reason and I think ultimately it is a beautiful show.

Thanks for tagging me Alana! <3

★✩★ NEW RELEASE ★✩★
Diving to the Top
By USA TODAY Bestselling Author: Susan Horsnell
Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/145625227/
Hosted by DS Book Promotions
AMAZON
Available on Kindle Unlimited
Blurb:
When Joanne McCarthy was given the opportunity to join a company as a Construction Diver, in a world dominated almost completely by men, a long-held dream finally came true. Joanne was aware the career she had chosen didn’t have a glass ceiling for women that would be difficult to shatter—It had one of solid steel which couldn’t be penetrated. Or so she thought. Less than four years later, the respected construction diver found herself in a position she never imagined was possible. Somehow, Joanne had found a way around the steel barrier and was now running her small part of the world. Boston Canon, a respected scientist, cared about the ocean and the creatures who call the environment home. When he and his business partner finally received permission to research the ocean and reef nearby a new platform, he was elated. What he wasn’t prepared for was the beautiful woman in charge. A woman whose work was in opposition to his own. Can these two find common ground? Or will their opposing work goals tear them apart? The first 10 chapters were first published in the Run the World Anthology
EXCERPT – Boston’s POV
“I did some reading on RigAsher while you were gone. It’s a small setup but they have a reputation for winning large contracts. Campbell is progressive and embraces change which is why they are extraordinarily successful. Two weeks ago, he appointed a woman…a construction diver…as Crew Foreman.”
"A woman? I knew they had women working the platforms as riggers, maintainers, and cooks, but no idea there were any female construction divers. It's a career path where the 'old boys club' is strong and most companies are stuck in the last century. And Crew Foreman…Wow! She must be something special."
"Well, it appears Campbell isn't part of the old-fashioned club and has recognised her ability. She's hot too, come and look."
I followed Olly to his desk, and he hit a few keys on the keyboard. The woman’s face that flashed up on the screen had my package taking more than a passing interest.
About the author:
I’m an Australian author who lives in Queensland when not travelling and I write in a variety of Romantic sub-genres, including Western, Historical, Gay, Mafia, and Contemporary Romance.

season one of hannibal was like Oh no Will's gotta catch the guy who stacked up all these bodies into a totem pole! Does he have feelings for Alana, despite their tense relationship? and then season three of hannibal was like Still on the run in Italy, Hannibal prepares to cook and eat Will's brain as Will explores his childhood estate and stages an elaborate plot to entrap Hannibal's old acquaintance into committing murder so that she too can know the joy of the kill before making the corpse into art. Meanwhile, on Muskrat Farm, Mason Verger plots to have Will Graham's face transplanted onto his own so he can eat Hannibal's dick after using his connections with the Italian mafia to kidnap them both. His sister Margot, now gay married to Alana offscreen, plots to kill him - but little does she know, the foetus that was removed from her womb when he had it surgically removed after a staged car crash so she couldn't kill him to inherit the family fortune is now gestating inside of a Real pig. and it was the best show ever made
