#or at least a reflection

[chalkrevelations]

Some things I needed all in one place:

#one of many reasons jc is the best btw #because he was a mature adult who MOVED ON from his dislike of jzx #but not only that #jin ling is constantly treated like this baby who needs to get over the violent murders of both his parents #who’s unreasonable for not wanting to forgive his father’s killers #but he isn’t #he has every right to be angry at wwx and wen ning (via op)

#no i very genuinely think about how isolating this must be. every single new connection jl makes over the course of the novel #is almost entirely unsympathetic to his hurt and anger about his parents deaths. which is the same thing he was told he was filially #obligated as their son to avenge. like?? #that boat scene fucking haunts me because what do you mean a 14 year old broke down and started sobbing about how hes an awful person #and about his fathers sword and no one until jiang cheng even tried to go over?? #that scene where jingyi is like omg r u gonna stab wwx again... like i get his worry but also GIRL SHUT UP #the world TOLD jin ling this hurt and anger was his obligation!! his birthright!! that it was the cause of his pain and isolation!! #and everyone expects him to just not care because wwx is nice actually?? hello?? (via @obsidianstrawberrymilk)

#god yeah #“uh just get over the violent deaths of both your parents lol can't you see the murderer is Nice Actually?” #jin ling please get some other friends (via @qiu-yan)

#i have like. 90+ posts drafted on my blog & at least 5 of them are specifically about the meal at the inn after yi city arc #if i were jin ling i would NOT still be hanging out with those other kids after that. #jin ling should have been on the cell phone amulet being like: 'jiujiu theyre teaching war revisionism at cloud recesses... come pick me up #and when wwx almost tried to hand off jin ling's clarity bell to sizhui for empathy............ #quick jin ling hop into the post-canon political au that only exists in my head! you'll be safe there! #also something something something abt gender analysis & yu ziyuan's narratively unsympathised 'hysterical' anger being passed down #to the 'young mistress'. #man. he should've been angrier & at more ppl. i understand his choice not to be. but at least let me hold his grudges for him. (via @autumnsplight)

#i literally cannot take WWX being confronted with a child he basically made an orphan #and the novel still focusing on how its HIM that suffers because of it because jiejie died being angry at him:((( #jl even talking to him once he learns who wwx is - is a gift (via @whumpbby)

#slightly spiteful au where the sacrifice spell doesn't work successfully/as intended #what i'm saying is instead of wwx coming back to life we dump shen “peerless cucumber” “noted villain-hater” yuan in mo xuanyu's body #for (blah blah reasons) everyone still assumes this is wwx back from the dead #except shen yuan (svsss) isn't aware of the fact that he's in a romance #“it is gross and weird that you all keep excusing this murderer's -- i mean my! -- behavior around this poor helpless child!” (via @ahavaas)

#“The murderer is nice don’t stab him :(” stab him again baby (via @starryribb0n)

something something jin ling’s grief over his parents, especially jin zixuan, is constantly invalidated and made fun of by everyone except jiang cheng

@sevi007 this one was your idea! When in doubt, ask for marriage, Eggman!

I love Lapis

[friendlyneighborhoodghostpal]

i’m just gonna say it i love how kaos handled orpheus and eurydice. i really did, im a huge greek mythology nerd and that story has always been about the refusal to give someone up even when you should, its not a love story its a story about grief. and i just- ah they did something really cool there didn’t they? i’m gonna rewatch the season and like properly form my opinions but i really like it.

i always bounced off the "she was a halla and he was a wolf 🥺" or "she's sooo mild and innocent and he's a hardened stoic morally grey immortal" version of solavellan, bc firstly that is generically heterosexual in a way that i find silly. and secondly the timeline is just. SO wild.

from lavellan's perspective they're like "hm this guy saved my life from the anchor! cool. a very knowledgeable and skilled mage. he's a bit annoying about the dalish but i do like our talks. we've been through some pretty scary life or death situations together. he seems kind of mysterious or depressed at times, i wonder what's going on there. but we have been flirting a bit... maybe i can go for 1 (one) kiss and see what happens 🤔"

this is very normal. this isn't notably "✨such a pure and gentle soul that has won the heart of the ancient bloody-handed trickster✨" behaviour, they're actually acting in a fairly regular way as someone who has a crush.

but by the point lavellan makes any move at all, from solas' perspective. he is already Dying Internally. he is Pining. when lavellan shoots their shot, he's already reached the level of "meeting you has changed my whole life and worldview, i don't know how to handle it," and presumably has restrained himself from saying anything to them only through pure stoicism and willpower. millennia of insurgency and political experience, all bent onto the task of Acting Normal Around Lavellan. he's halfway about to blurt out a love confession if they reciprocate the feelings at all.

his entire plan for however many eons was to NOT get overly attached to any single person and risk his trolley problem calculations and schemes for them, but within like 4-6 months of hanging out with this random, somewhat curious mortal, he's considering telling them everything and/or giving up the plan entirely. truly cringe fail.

crusty evolution redraw. in theory.

I love how the general consensus in Scum Villain ABO fics is that whatever Shen Jiu's secondary gender was, he was lying about it.

Omega? Obviously he's going to cover that up. Potential weakness! Probably related to past traumatic experiences! No one can know! He's going to pretend to be either a Beta or an Alpha instead.

Alpha? Hates it and everyone else and has no interest in playing the type. Hides it less because of how other people might respond and more because he's having some kind of complicated dysphoria about it.

Beta? I've never see it but I bet he'd disguise that as well. He's totally an Alpha, don't ask questions, fuck off and don't violate the mile-wide personal space bubble.

Whatever Shen Jiu is, we all know he'd be wildly uncomfortable with it.

people keep putting speech bubble images of goro akechi and light yagami under my posts which is fine love and peace but i just want to remind everyone lovingly and peacefully that we absolutely cannot give those two bastards the credit for being nefarious schemers and bitches. i was here first. once again i assert that if anything they kin me

forever thinking about caleb's tower's 8th floor password being "gone, but not forgotten"

And that fucking line in "O mighty nein"

My thoughts here mainly revolve around YSA as the mary sue/female lead type character:

She goes from being this perfect woman to. just being a woman. And my idea is that the weight gain isn't there to make her "unconventionally attractive," or whatever other dumb phrase you wanna use to avoid calling someone ugly, but to make her conventionally attractive, yet realistic.

Instead of looking like a skinny waifu character, she looks like a skinny human woman. Her hair swaying in the nonexistent wind isn't as perfect, her magic blush is missing and she has eyebags. She's still hot, just more human.

i just think that in general people need to be more comfortable with interacting with art that makes them uncomfortable, as strange as that sounds lol. imo weve gotten way too used to everything being made to appease us & making us feel good (tm) about ourselves that anything that dares cross that invisible barrier is immediately deemed wrong & immoral
