Something that legit shocks me is how many ppl actually have actually like- dumbed Wei Wuxian down. Like how ppl manage to somehow forget how smart he is. I can get it, he does act dumb sometimes, but the key word is act. Because Wei Wuxian did in fact manage to create an entirely new cultivation path. And made inventions so incredibly useful that despite the cultivation world's hatred for him they still used them. Idk it just always makes me sad to see ppl portray him as someone who just goofs around and simps for Lan Wangji. While yes, he does that, but it's not the only thing he does!!
I honestly love the book 5 cover and inside cover illustrations for tgcf. There's just smth abt it that make my heart warm...just hualian being hualian...the sweeties...
Ao3 does not need an algorithm, you're just lazy
Ao3 does not need a 1-5 star rating system, you just want to bring down authors writing for FREE
Ao3 does not need automatic censorship, it is an archive, therefore anything can be posted
Writing or reading about something illegal does not mean the author nor the reader condones it, if that were true, you could never read a story involving anything negative
Purity culture is ruining fan culture and you all are fucking annoying
Oh and when I got to Jiang yanli death she was like "this is so depressing. If I was more attached to the characters I mightve cried" and I was like "ya I totally cried"
So I was telling my mom abt the entire mdzs story up to book 5 (cause that's all I've read to) and when I tell her abt yi city and xue Yang she has this horrified look on her face and was like "this is so sad. How to you even read this. It's so sad" and I was like "I promise it gets better" and shes like "I'm very doubtful"
I need to like continue to show my bestie characters from the books I'm reading to get her into them as well because as of right now she's become obsessed with at least one character from each series. Mdzs? Jiang Cheng. Knows nothing abt him but will affectionately call him "purple guy" (accurate) scum villain? Shen Qingqiu and tianlang-jun calling them "fan man" and "the father" respectively. Qjj? Xiao Chiye who has only referred to as "fine man". Works like a charm.
Something that's always kinda peeved me is when ppl forget Wei Wuxian looks nothing like mo Xuanyu. Like it's part of the reason no one really deeply suspected to because why would the evil yiling laozu take a poor, cutsleeve as a host? And wwx wasn't that bad of an actor. It's only bc he kept running into ppl that knew him the most that he was ever suspected.
BAGEL PLEASE.
So my mdzs book 5 finally arrived today and I love all the little stuff that came with it (my sister has mixed feelings abt the wangxian wall in our bedroom now but it's fine) but holy shit Wei wuxian I'm not sure if that was the best or worse love confession I've read. Dear lord my stupid stupid son he needs help. I'm glad he gave an actually sweet confession after but still. Wei wuxian my stupid son.
So I recently finished the mdzs donghua and while I rlly enjoyed it, despite the minor changes from the books plot, I am also shocked with the seemingly lack of censorship. Like they got married. I am not sure how they got away with it, but I am glad they did. They did rlly well on the final episodes imo.
also it gets worse bc I've said multiple times "I'd date you" to her
how bad is it when the girl you are literally into say, to your face, "oh, I just don't know anyone who'd want to date me"
