#bl romance

attention: connor storrie knows what bl romance is!!! 😭🚨

I was recently asked to repost some old fanart I did of KJ Charles’s characters from some of my favourite books.

Here is a somewhat saucy picture of Daniel da Silva and Curtis from “Think of England” and Will and Kim from “The Will Darling Adventures”

Some truly excellent historical romance books for fans of well written romance (with a body count…) and happy endings 😆

Happy Juneteenth!! I realized I haven't posted this here so I thought today would be fitting :D here are some doodles I made in wiggly paint back in April of Christian and Jay from @joshuadavidking 's Novel and audio drama "Project Super Crush"!!

I have zero backbone. None. I’m spiritually weak. I might be colorblind and I’m morally compromised. HOW did I fold this fast?

Because tell me why ONE (1) episode was enough for me to go from “lock this man up forever” to “oh no… he looks sad 🥺”.

I knew, intellectually, that the “optimisation project” was Fan Xiao’s way of trying to pull Shulang out of the abyss - obviously dressed up as manipulation, control, and emotional terrorism, because of course that’s how Fan Xiao operates. But even so… I could already feel the redemption arc creeping in.

And then he just… gives everything back: Shulang’s career. His purpose. His connection to medicine. That sweet little kid to fulfill his life. And finally - his freedom.

Here’s the thing: I’m not over what Fan Xiao did. Not really. He put Shulang through hell simply because Shulang was good - genuinely kind, principled, steady. Everything Fan Xiao has never been and never believed could exist. And that’s exactly why he tried to break him.

Fan Xiao is deeply, catastrophically broken. He doesn’t know how to build - only how to ruin, control, and drag others down to the depth he lives in. Until Shulang.

Until this annoyingly kind, impossibly strong, painfully rational man walked into his life and became his anchor. His moral compass. His safe place. His proof that something pure could exist without being fake.

Fan Xiao loved him and hated him in equal measure. He wanted to possess him, destroy him, and be saved by him all at once. And when he finally understood that keeping Shulang meant killing him - slowly, completely - he did the one truly selfless thing he’s ever done.

He let him go.

And he didn’t just let him go quietly - he burned his own world down in the process. Took his own family with him. Stripped himself of power, control, status. Reduced himself to nothing.

And THEN - as if that wasn’t enough emotional violence - we get this version of Fan Xiao: broke, humbled, working as a server and a sales rep, soft-spoken, smiling gently, wearing the STUPIDEST LITTLE MAN BUN I HAVE EVER SEEN.

WHY is he like this now? WHY does he look so… small? So harmless? So heartbreakingly human?

I hate this. I hate that it’s working.

Because yes - in real life? Absolutely not. Jail. Therapy. Restraining order. No notes.

But in Cdramaland? I fear I am already forgiving him. I fear I am weak.

I fear the bun has won. 😭

I finished Osora this weekend and let me tell you something... It was ONE OF THE BEST webtoons I have ever read in my life (tho I read more manwha but you know what I mean 😅✨)

I liked the plot the art, Arias (we all know he is just hot and how he accepted Osora well it touched my heart).

But also the lil stories that also were going on from the two girls Catalina and Celia (they both have also my heart, like I said I loved this webtoon so much I read it in less than 24h)

There are still three chapters left from s1 (I didn't buy them because I'm lazy sorry) but I saw on tiktok spoilers so 🤞.

Soo does anyone know any more good webtoon bl? 💗✨
