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?)
Teasers:

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.

I knew you'd like the soft, light ones. There are always certain people I have in mind when I make my sets and you're one of them. :D
I was going to do a different character per icon for the Category set but - bitty Buffy. I got carried away (how could I not?)
In CAT5 she looks like the lovechild of Katniss and Cordelia though??
*squints* I think it's the flu talking. *lol* The image of her may be slightly distorted because the site I got my caps from (I think screen capped.net; definitely not Blood Queen for that one.)
But Angel and Giles would be interesting in a painful way.
I almost didn't because of the fact that Angelus, you know, murdered Jenny. But there is no way to ship any two characters in btvs that isn't somehow problematic, so what the heck. Also, if you just go off the caps, as I was, there are all sorts of slashy implications to the images of Giles and Angel in the library...if you just go off their faces...which is how non-canon shipping was born, right? Gabrielle rec'd some NC-17 Giles/Angel fic upthread that I haven't read yet:
