In rukitoaoi_nil  there was a contest to make a graphic based on an AoiXRuki fic, and so I participated in it (twice, actually...). And!!!! I won!!! Yaaaayy~~!!!

It was with the first entry that I won, which was this:


And it was based on my own fic, Filth in the Beauty (it's somewhere here on the list XD)
One scene in particular that inspired me to create that graphic was the one where Ruki was in his room and Aoi went to him and held him, and then Ruki asked Aoi what it was that he wanted from him, and Aoi said "What I want... is you" - or something like that. XDDDD
I believe it's chapter 12 that I'm talking about.
The graphic itself hadn't taken too long to finish, and the shadows on Ruki's picture fitted nicely with Aoi's angle, so I didn't have to add much. Adjoining the pictures was a fun job XD Unfortunately I thought Ruki's expression was sort of blank in that pic, but Aoi's fitted perfectly...
 
And then I participated again with a second entry, this time from Yomenai Kotoba (and yeah it's by me, again, and it's in my fanfic list, again XXDDDDD).


I personally love this one more than the first, but then people have their own opinion XD
I spent a while doing the manip, but it turned out amazing, and I could barely stop myself from staring at it, thinking that it could really be real XDD I wish! But, compared to the first one, this one was harder to do, I had to be careful not to amputate Ruki's nose XDDDD That would be horrible.
This one was based on chapter 19 of Yomenai Kotoba, where Ruki got desperate with how things were and told Aoi he would allow Aoi do anything he wanted to him, even if that meant... doing something rough (you know what I mean XDDDD)
Anyhow, we all know Aoi would never do anything bad to Ruki (except at that time when he was dead drunk). But in the end, obviously, all that they wanted, each of them wanted, was to love the other, and to be loved by the other.

And from the votes, apparently people prefered the first (the Filth in the Beauty) graphic more than the Yomenai one XDDDD
And I received a banner plus become the user of the month in the comm. YaaaaayyY~
Here is the banner:


 
Thank you thank you thank you for everyone who had voted for my graphic, I really appreciate it!
I've never won anything in the matter of graphics (and to think of my lame expertise in using graphic-programs... I didn't even use PS!!!!! I swear it!!!!!!)... So it felt really good to win that particular contest. Plus it's my OTP. XDDDDD

So yes. Thank you!!!!!

Oh, btw, to celebrate this victory and as it is fitting because I have that AoiXRuki project for 50stories , I changed the header image for my LJ!!! Yaaaayyy!!! What do you think about it? 
The lyric is from Incubus' Dig, if you're curious... A great song...
