Mysterious Lotus Casebook ~ ep. 31

All these years, he's always been alone. You are the only friend I've ever seen him with.

When you decide to spend the Christmas holidays with your uhh enemy by travelling to her time. Cometh the hour, cometh the man 🤠

Short comic inspired by a segment of Chapter 42 of Somewhere in Time by Serpent in Red (@serpentinred) (PLEASE mind the preliminary notes regarding the fic (which is in Chapter 1), AND the author’s notes which top and tail this specific chapter cuz it is NOT a continuation of the main plot). There’s just something wholesome and grin-inducing about Chapter 42 that makes my heart grow two sizes, and the enemies-to-lovers tone remains an exquisite constant throughout the fic, so if that’s your thing, you know what to do!

I also owe a massive thanks to Nerys Dax (@nerysdax) for kindly looking over the panels and providing helpful comments and feedback. I really appreciated this since it was important to me from the outset that whatever is sketched out here remains as close to the author's story as possible, and I couldn't have confidently put this forward without Nerys's input.

Lastly, if it wasn't already obvious - please go read the fic lol

And through my restless dreams

you could've been everything

Instead you've become

a ghost of my longings

my anchor of aches

And through my restless dreams

You gave me a glimpse of almost

This specific performance of this specific song really tugs at my heartstrings for some reason. I can't articulate why but I get a lump in my throat every time I watch it.

Grandmother: You know how I used to gripe at you all the time for getting depressed about politics?

Me: Yeah.

Grandmother: I get it now.

So. What I'm picking up is. That little scene of Stella and the Baitlings and those little birds on that pretty flower raft is now for sure 1000% from season 7. There's not even anywhere it would fit in s6 as something like a deleted scene.

Kinda funny that site even added that pic then. No wonder it was quickly removed. Someone probably got a talking to for that.

I've never written anything REALLY angsty (yet) but I love making stuff super bittersweet for no reason. Is this a happy ending? No, but they aren't as devastatingly depressed as they could be! Is this a sad ending? No, but they aren't nearly as happy as they'd be if I was nicer!

[angells-housewife]

Phantom of the Mist and Ditty Nightsong have similar vibes and equally heart wrenching endings. Big question is: is it better to forget a person entirely and not have to live with the heart break but only the feeling that you've lost something or is it better to have had warmth, lost it and have to carry the memory with you?

When I see people lamenting about the fact that He Tian will vanish abroad soon and I remember that there's a chance Jian Yi will disappear as well.

Old Xian, give me strength.
