yaoi recs, courtesy of your friendly neighborhood eng. lit. major

i should preface this by clarifying: not all works listed here are yaoi. there are some tamer 
animals here, and english-language external works—slash or queer fiction would be more 
apt as descriptors for those (but wouldn't make for quite as pithy a title)

for a list of those rare works with only enthusiastic consent, see my other list:

Eisner Award and Lambda Literacy Award Nominee | A 500-page epic navigating sexuality, adulthood, drugs, poverty, race, class, courage, and love. Amal comes out to his old-fashioned Indian family and flees the ensuing storm. By serendipity or foul luck he meets TJ, a weed-smoking, dreads-toting career hitchhiker who proposes a mutually-beneficial roadtrip to Providence.

Check:
2. (ice hockey) an act of hampering or neutralizing (an opponent) with one's body or stick.

Eric Bittle is not your average Southern belle (though he does bake and say “bless your heart” a lot). A poignant, momentous coming-out webcomic—the lovechild of Ao3 hockey RPF denizens, lovelorn closet-sick chameleons, vlog diarists, and endless 4th-wall-breaking amusement.

Lucian’s afraid. Nikita is fat, disabled, and unrepentant.

asexuality is actually treated with the respect it deserves. there's no magical "fixing" of "broken" people—attempts are addressed. and this comic has some of the best surreal allegorical dream sequences i've ever seen illustrated.

this is NOT:
your usual yaoi fix with hunks/bishies
a fetishized LGBTQIA+ relationship
pretty art. (in fact, it's deliberately ugly.)
