Hello. 2023 top 5 BL visually stunning moments. Rose💜

Hello Rose 🤍 Thank you for this one!

There were some really pretty moments in 2023 and giffing them was so much fun. Working with the right coloring to make the scenes pop and to be satisfied with the result was so much fun (and some time a little bit frustrating!).

The following list is not complete, but those are the most visually stunning moments for me, for different reasons.

We start the list with a show I loved to look at but I didn't like to watch it that much after the first episodes:

Chains Of Heart

The cinematography was breathtaking! The coloring was beautiful and I had so much fun making my sets for every week. The story... well that is another story. Chains of heart brought us many beautiful, visually pleasing moments and I remember loving to gif this scene. I enjoy finding moments in series I want to put into a set. And this was one I totally fell in love with.

Next is part of a show I really hope we get some more stunning scenes in the future:

The Sign

Look at this beauty! This is art. This is so fucking beautiful and stunning! My jaw dropped! The coloring, the reds, it is just majestic! It looks so surreal and yet so cool! I am in love with the visuals of this show. There were so many more scenes, but this stood out to me!

And on we go with a series that left us all in pieces at times and also that flashed us with one of the best reunions ever:

The Eighth Sense

The coloring in this scene was so gorgeous (yes, for gifmaking really shitty, because some parts are overcolored and some are a little bit bland)! I was so excited for this reunion. The music, the whole feeling, the waiting, the happiness, just everything was so fucking perfect! And I do love myself a good little kissing scene. And this is one of my most favorite scenes. Visually just one of the most beautiful scenes ever!

And sometimes I am a simple girl and think a fish tank, some goldfish and a smiling Jimmy is stunning and visual perfection.

Last Twilight

This scene was so cute and so beautiful and yes, I might be biased because I am in love with Mhok and every moment of him looking at Day is visually stunning, but this scene... It is so soft and I know I will go back there from time to time. It was a good cinematic choice and I applause the creators for all these visual beautiful choices!

The last one might be just me crushing hard on the beautiful visuals:

Only Friends

I was lying on the floor, gasping for air and drooling after this scene. I needed to pause the series and rewatch it immediately. Visually one of the most stunning moments I saw 2023 on my screen!

I really adore your blog and your OC is so adorable! You're really the one that got me kinda interested in self shipping, so could you please tell me how you got yourself to just... do it? I'm really afraid to be cringe or recieve judgement if I do something like that, along with breaking the canon kinda scares mr. I would appreciate some thoughts/tips on how to get over yourself lol! Have a great day. ૮₍ ´• ˕ •` ₎ა💗

AHHH anon this is super sweet!!! thank you for liking my blog and abby!! (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠) I'd be more than glad to tell you my story!!! 🧡💐

first of all: cringe is dead!! selfship is supposed to be enjoyed by you and yourself only. thats why its called 'self'ship!! you dont have to worry about what others might think of you. because here in the selfship community we're supportive of each other!! 🧡 id be more than happy to help you too!! <3

also, canon means nothing here! i know there are selfshippers out there who follow the canon storyline for their selfship, but there are others who dont! (like me!) i know it can be very scary to do that, especially if people from the fandom discover you and ask you stuff like "why is this like this!?" and believe me, it happened to me too. but!!! dont listen to them!!! it might sound hard, but if you believe in yourself (and all the people who support you) you'll eventually feel less scared! (｡⁠•⁠ ⁠ᵕ⁠ ⁠•⁠｡) its your story and your universe after all — nothing and no one can stop you!

i know there'll be moments of doubts, but trust me, if it makes you very happy and you want to do it, just go for it! you can start slow and do tiny steps, and i'll be here to accompany you always anon (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡ you can always go to my inbox to rant and ask me stuff!

and always remember! your f/o loves you lots and lots and lots and they'll guide you in every step of the way too!! 🧡

Ok! Your fox and the dog au!!! I love it and I’m obsessed. I have thoughts. I don’t know how quite word it but I’m gonna try my best. If I’ve connected the dots wrong…my bad.

First of all I love it. Like I don’t know much about it but I’m hooked. So what I’m gathering so far is the Mirzam is the fox. And I think the fox is Felix. Which is so interesting.

And the fox is based on illusions. I find this really interesting for 2 points. (I’m pretty sure you picked the name deliberately but if you didn’t it’s one hell of coincidence.)

1) Mirzam is an Arabic name roughly translating to ‘the Herald’ so like a guiding light. And the fox is based on illusions. Which tends to imply deceit. So I love that juxtaposition!!

Also 2) it pairs well with the dog miraculous!!! Mirzam is the second brightest star in Canis Major. Which like. Not only is there the dog miraculous but like implies that Mirzam will not shine as bright as Sirius (which I believe is the name of the miraculous holder of the dog [which ahhhhhh Sirius is the brightest star in Canis Major!!]) or that Mirzam will stick to the shadows while being a guiding light!! And like Mirzam will guide Sirius. (Or at least that what I’m extrapolating)

Anyway I just saw the name Mirzam and I was like ooh Arabic name got excited and kind of word vomited so if not very coherent that’s why.

[Holding your hands gently]

You are connecting so many dots right now. Like stars in the Canis Major constellation one might say

[slightlymad]

YOU ARE MY HEROOOOOO :")))) first song you learned to play on guitar... i am looking at you with stars in my eyes... wowowoowwoow

JOOOO I LOVE YOU SOO MUCH MY SOUL IS LITERALLY GLOWING RIGHT NOW !!!!! I'M GENUINELY OVER THE MOON, NO WORDS COULD DO MY JOY JUSTICE !!!!!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST PRECIOUS AND WONDERFUL THINGS SOMEONE HAS EVER SAID TO ME :"))))))))))) I'M CHERISHING THIS ASK WITH EVERYTHING IN ME UNTIL THE END OF TIME ACTUALLY <33333 you truly understand me on a cosmic level MY CHEEKS ARE STARTING TO HURT FROM ALL OF THE SMILING I'VE BEEN DOING BECAUSE OF YOUUU :")))) that song is genuinely feels like it's a piece of my soul at this point it's, SO important to my overall being :")))

Favorite shows to gif

All of them 😅 I love the shows I gif. If I don't like the show, I don't gif it (most of the times, sometimes I just don't have time for all the shows). You have to take your time and sometimes watch at scenes and faces and special moments multiple times over and over again. It is a good hint that I lose interest in a show when I stop giffing it 🙈

But of course I have my favorites. Without any particular rating here are my first top five shows to gif this year (there is another ask, so I can use that one to have a top ten in the end hehehe).

Starting the list, we have one of the best series of this year... well, I guess I could say that about most of them. It was one of those series that felt really mature and @bengiyo calls it a gay family drama, which I love and it is so fitting:

Moonlight Chicken

Giffing this show was really challenging. Either it was dark, the colors very really intense or it had an orange/brown filter on it... finding the right coloring was very difficult from time to time. But it felt so good whenever I found a coloring I liked. And giffing EarthMix is always a pleasure, so... yeah I really liked to make sets of this show.

And off we go to number two, a show some liked, some disliked and some of us loved and we can't stop talking about it:

Wedding Plan

I loved the moments Lom and Namnuea shared on screen. Those two had a really great presence and chemistry and it was fun to catch those sweet and sometimes horny moments. And perhaps I just needed an excuse to look at Lom for a totally healthy amount of times.

Number three brings us to another show I think is one of the best ones this year:

Last Twilight

Yeah, it could also be on this list because I have a huge crush on Mhok. But all jokes aside, this series came really unexpected for me. The trailer was okayish and I liked Vice Versa, but I didn't have any expectations for Last Twilight. The first episode was good and I loved the Little Prince reference, so I was kinda hooked and then Mhok started to look at Day as if he was his whole universe and I was gone. I was just in love with him falling in love with Day and now I love him being in love with Day and overall I just love him. I love giffing this man looking at this most precious person. It makes me just so fucking happy! Gosh I could look at those gifs for hours...

Okay, but let's move on.

The next show might not be a good show and definitely not one of my favorite watches, plotwise, this year. The cinematography however was something else:

Chains Of Heart

The coloring of this show was insane and it loved it greens and reds. I enjoyed watching this series, even though the plot was not good. It was one of the shows I giffed no particular scene (except one) and instead made sets of my favorite moments of each episode. And it was so much fun to highlight the colors. Really, really good coloring and really really bad plot...

Last, but not least we have a show some people didn't watch because they thought it wasn't bl but a strong bromance. But the series taught us all wrong with some kisses on the cheek and lube and really obvious hints and unleashed leads.

Stay With Me

It is one of my favorite shows this year, yes. And those two were in love and living together like a married couple, doing things a married couple would do. They were unhinged and I had so much fun with it. Even though most of the times they lived a simple and poor life, this house was so warm and colorful and cosy and I loved making gifs from it. I hope there is a second season because this time I need closure!

I turn 18 this year, and graduate school on 3rd February and go to college this year too. I feel like you have a slight part in it, because I remember sticking to my phone waiting for a response to my ask because it was the only place I got any comfort from.

Thank you, thank you so much, and I wish you a wonderful 2024 and success in your personal and professional life (and spiritual too, if you believe in that).

Hey! Just wanted to let you know that I think you’re awesome and ilysm. So proud of you, keep doing your thing and don’t let anyone drag you down ❤️

I really tried to not bother you with this but ( I could't control myself anymore) as a french girl how did you feel about Gojira on the Olympics? And on a scale of 5 how irritating is it to be in Paris during the games? Because I'm imagining parisians huffing and puffing over their croissants daily because of it.

Hey Nonnie 🧡

You are NOT bothering me at all!! Not in the slightest! I woke up to your ask and it made me smile and chuckle, thank you 🧡

Of course I can only talk for myself, but everyone I talked to about it felt insanely proud about Gojira's performance!!! Even amongst those of my friends or coworkers who are not into metal, and didn't know the band before its opening ceremony performance, everyone was THRILLED and thought it was pretty neat! Which says a lot about how the people around me feel about the French Revolution, heehee: OFF WITH THEIR HEADS 😌

Unfortunately, we still have royalists (and even Napoleon partisans, if you can believe this shit). Those were NOT pleased, social media demonstrated. Given the current political divide of our country, the fact that these people got pissed gave Gojira's number some extra nice flavour.

Deep down, it makes me a little sad that it triggered such violent reactions from the conservative crowds. I was 10 in 1989, when the country celebrated the Revolution's bicentennial. I wasn't living in Paris back then (Paris and the rest of France are two different things. I say that without any judgement, anyone will tell you so. Also, I feel 99% Parisian but I grew up in the South of France, where my family still lives), and what I remember is a year of happy, uniting celebrations. But we didn't have social media back then.

I'm sorry I'm so chatty, I'll try wrapping it up. Being in Paris right now is exactly the opposite of what I expected: not irritating AT ALL! The city is virtually empty. Everyone is either gone or attending the games. Don't get me wrong, it has been. A lot. The city was under construction work for the best part of the past 3/4 years, so Parisians did spend this whole time huffing and puffing over their croissants daily because of it, as you so very accurately put it, only to rally the minute the opening ceremony started (which is such a French reaction: complain first, rally later). We are very proud of the way Paris was pictured. I cannot stress that enough. Plus France won so many more medals than usual, and at the end of the day, we are a very chauvinistic people ("chauvin" in French means "proud of one's country", without the negative connotation that the word "chauvinistic" can have in English).

I'll end this essay (I'm so sorry, I don't know concision) with this poster I saw the other day. It's a pun on "Flamme Olympique" (Olympic Flame) and "Flemme Olympique (Olympic laziness ehehehe)

Hey. Hope you've doing ok after the whole.... that. Dunno if it's ok to message and you don't have to publish this but I just want to say I honestly think you're one of the best people in the fandom. You're one of the best voices for LGBTQ people here, and as someone who is NB I'm glad theres people like you here. Your content is also amazing. I'm ridiculously shy, it's a serious problem, but honestly the support and patience you gave me (and other baby modders) with modding has helped me gain a lot of confidence so thank you ❤️

Aaaah Hey there!! 🧡

I'm doing ok, I've had some family over at home today and that was a welcomed change of mood 🤗 thank you for checking in

And thank you so much for taking the time to send in this ask, it really means the most 🥺 I'm glad to hear I was able to help you in any way, even if just a little bit!

Queer mods are important to me; my Valentin started as a self insert, and as a queer man myself I've wanted him to look like me and reflect who I am. I'm honored if my mods allows others to do the same, to express who they are through their characters or simply explore all kind of diverse OCs!

I'm not a saint and I've done mistake in the past, I do not claim to be all knowing when it comes to the LGBTQ+ community, but I have my opinions and I'm loud about it- that includes speaking out on bigoted individuals and bigoted behavior regardless of the intention, and lately there has been a lot of "lite transphobia" for lack of a better term

Its always upsetting to see it happen in a fandom that claims itself to be open minded and welcoming, that claims to fight against "bullies" and other injustices

Meanwhile we've seen the same kind of people harass fellow queers over characters sexualities and trans inclusive mods, and we're seeing this behavior being supported, encouraged by a hate wagon far too deep in their own made-up, one-sided fandom war to realize such behavior impact every queer people in the fandom

It sucks and I wish it wasn't like this every few months, cause I know there are people who can't freely voice their opinion out of fear to get backlash, in fear of getting booted out of their friend group, of getting harassed too, etc etc

I didn't meant for this ask to turn into a long post HKFJFJG I'm so sorry- your words touched me a lot, thank you again for your kindness and I hope my mods will continue to help people 🤗🧡
