And if I'm dead to you

Why are you at my wake?

And you can aim for my heart go for blood

But you will still miss me in your bones

cql throwing in a scene like

lxc: Using my golden core I can drink without actually getting drunk. ^^,

wwx: Oh so Lan Zhan can do that too?

lxc: No, I've decided not to teach him this, as a joke.

I can’t stop thinking about the Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet drinking game from book 3.

Like imagine. You pass a goblet around, duck-duck-goosing it until one of you is unlucky enough to trip the mystery loser wire that signals you're "it," for this round.

The poor idiot gets their name plugged into the xianxia version of an AO3 search bar, and whatever mortal-made fanfiction of your life pops up first gets broadcast in front of ALL your coworkers. Your only hope is that whatever absurd fanfic of your life is written well, because mortals are horny bastards, and you have no control over who they ship you with. Half of these plays are just your mortal fans smashing barbies of you and some heavenly rando together yelling "NOW KISS" and you just have to fuckin'...sit there. I would die.

why would you think of me? when you were not the one in love when you were not the dreamer when you were just the dream

Almost a week ago, I gave myself permission to stop refilling the queue for all my art sideblogs. I was hoping to prove I'd miss it if I didn't do it. I'm sorry to say... I don't. Allowing myself to set aside this time-consuming responsibility has been a huge relief.

It's been almost 5 years since I started reblogging art here (and added the other side blogs over the following few months), and it's been wonderful. I wanted to make a huge pile of art and roll around in it like I'd found the world's best pile of fall leaves, and I've done so: across the 8 blogs, I've shared over 100,000 art pieces for dozens of Chinese fandoms. It's taken me over a thousand hours, time spent every single day.

I'm done.

I expect I'll still share things that cross my dash, and there are over 18000 works still in my tumblr likes. As I find the interest and energy, I want to try to clear those out. But I'll no longer be checking tumblr tags daily or putting active work into finding new content for mdzsartreblogs, tgcfartreblogs, cnovelartreblogs, erhaartreblogs, or tykartreblogs (I'd already stepped back from svsssartreblogs, zhenhunartreblogs, and dmbjartreblogs).

Thanks for an amazing 5 years. It's been a delight to see everyone's creations and share them with others. I procrastinated writing this for four days because I couldn't think of anything adequate to say, so I'll just leave it here - to you reading this, whether you're an artist, author, sharer, fan - keep being an awesome part of the fandom. Keep telling fanartists how amazing they are and how much you love their work. Keep being a part of the danmei fandom community. We all matter in making a healthy fandom ecosystem, and I hope others will step up in sharing art more widely as I step back.

Thanks for everything.

tgcf mutual: no one understands the Character.

mdzs mutual: today i blocked 5 people in the Character tag. i'm starting to suspect no one in this fandom can read.

svsss mutual: today i spent 6 hours brainstorming new ways for Character and Character to fuck nasty. here are the results.

my favorite part about this scene (besides wen ning being the third wheel) is that wei wuxian, the number one rule breaker, is willingly giving up on a childhood treat only because lan wangji said that it might be against the rules

and just a second later, lan wangji, the infamous rule follower, never-done-anything-out-of-line, is ready to break the rules for his beloved, letting him have this moment because he's already been through a lot

why are they so... Yeah.
