btvsats20in20 ROUND 15: Out of Mind, Out of Sight (BtVS S1.11)

[red_satin_doll]

So we made it to the flip side - Happy 2016, my friends!  May it be better than 2015.  (I say that every year. It never is better, but I always hope anyway.)

This was my "last hurrah" of 2015 (Good-bye old year, I won't miss you. At all.) and my first hurrah of 2016, for btvsats20in20 Round 15.
Plus a special treat for the Giles/Angel shippers in the house! (Anyone?)

For the first time ever, I attempted "slashy" Giles/Angle icons. Actually, this would be my first ever m/m slash-y* icons, period.  I'm surprised that Giles/Angel isn't more of a "thing". Somewhere in the world I am sure there's a website filled with G/A fic of the two of them screwing each other senseless, but I haven't come across it. Not that I want to, tbh.  (This may be a sign of the End of Days. Remember to pack a toothbrush.)
Enjoy - I think?

* I actually hate the words "slash" and "femmeslash". I know where they originate in this context but I think it's time to retire them. And yet, saying "my first gay male icons" doesn't quite sound right either.

Thank you m'lady!

You're the second person to single out Pastel, I'm surprised (and pleased) because I wasn't sure I liked it. I wasn't sure about Peaceful either so I'm glad you like. (i wanted to do more Willow icons in this set but this ep isn't the best for the Willow visuals. Probably because Cordy takes a bigger role.)

Happy new year! Did you stay up for it last night?

We did stay awake. We hung out with our neighbors last night. They taught us how to play Euchre and I learned that drinking an entire bottle of chocolate cherry wine is a poor practice.

EWW, that sounds awful to start with, never mind an entire bottle. (This from a gal whose favorite beer is Sam Smith double chocolate stout, so what would I know?) But Euchre sounds fun - I never learned how to play it either, is it difficult?

I'm not much of a beer drinker, but I once had a chocolate stout with a splash of cream soda. I thought that was good.

It wasn't too bad. Our neighbors were kind enough to play about 5 open-hand rounds so we could get the hang of it.

I like both items individually, I'd have to give it a try sometime.

Have you tried the "hard root beer" they sell nowadays? It's actually an old-fashioned recipe (if you made soda pop and let it continue to ferment it would become a beer or wine), and it sounded like a great idea because again, I like both individually, but I didn't care for it as a beverage. Too sweet to be a beer and too alcoholic to be a soda.

I did have one of those at a ren faire last summer. I thought it was pretty tasty, but I could only drink one.
