shocking how much of writing is putting down a sentence and then thinking, "okay, but now a less shitty version of that"

real sadists understand that you can torture The Character simply by forcing them to live with themself

I felt sad, so to brighten my dark soul I re-watched the wonderful short film Joanne's Galaxy

Such a short video poem about life and love.

I love couples that feel like the first contact of two different civilizations.

And I love stories about how love makes life real for someone who has not lived to the fullest before

and makes death real for someone who lived as if there was no death,

and how these are two sides of the same coin.

my fave writing reminder

honestly, this phrase has been on my mind more times than i can count. i've kidnapped it, taken it as a hostage with no ransom money because i need it to live permanently in my head.

I'm rewatching some moments from the Psych Hunter (for fic-writing purposes) and these particular scenes are especially interesting when you know who's under the mask

Was it necessary for the "experiment" to slide the blade across Jiang Shuo's chest like that? Or to pat him on the cheek?

Probably not. But even a doctor sometimes has to allow himself small pleasures, and the mask is liberating in a way 🌚

love characters who are like "this is how the world works. this is how it has to be (because if i'm wrong i have to face what i've done // if i'm wrong i have to face whats been done to me) "

[kseniyagreen]

What could be more symbolic than a stern brutal warrior fighting with flowering trees that were "activated" by his "bosom enemy"?

if i made a bingo card for things i expect to happen in this show, i can safely say that di feisheng fighting a grove of blossoming trees would not have been on it

And Li Lianhua as a version of John Connor who is fed up with being the chosen one and tries to just disappear from history, but the hero's path finds him.

the hint of a smile when he says this he's so cute

REBLOG THIS TO GIVE THE PERSON YOU REBLOGGED THIS FROM A GOLD STAR BECAUSE THEY’VE BEEN STELLAR TODAY AND THEY DESERVE IT ⭐️

I would like to thank you for you multiple analyses on The Mysterious Lotus Casebook: I had so much pleasure reading them! It's so rare to come across this level of deep understanding and meticulous scrutinizing. Feels like a breath of fresh air. I was wondering, if you can recommend any of dihua fics worth reading in your opinion?

Oh, thank you so much for such warm words! I would say that Mysterious Lotus Casebook has a wonderful fandom in general - many creative people. Unfortunately, I very rarely read fics - I am usually too carried away by my own fantasies or I try to write my own and I am afraid to lose the mood. But I will be grateful if other people from the fandom recommend their favorite dihua fics.

Reblog if you write fanfic and would be totally down with your followers coming into you askbox and talking to you about your fic

I love this scene so much! Absolutely genius way to introduce a character, in my opinion.

The clouded reflection in the mirror (this theme of a distorted reflection will be repeated in the first half of the drama).

The theme of purification/starting over.

And the way Lee Dongsik consciously chooses the blade and how precise and sure his movements are. He has his demons, but he controls them very well.

Beyond Evil, Episode 1

Something about the fact that Lee Dongsik shaves with a straight razor, which requires way more precision, focus and time than a disposable blade (which he also has sitting on top of his sink) just gets to me. Who taught him? His dad? (Was he even in need of shaving at the time when his dad passed away?) Nam Sangbae? Or has he taught himself, with his dad's razor? Might this be the only time he's able to tune out his demons, because without proper focus he's in danger of giving himself a nasty cut or worse, and that's the only thing he won't do at this point, endanger himself with no good reason?

[kseniyagreen]

That's right. Li Lianhua built himself a mobile home from the "dead body" of his and Di Feisheng 's shared past and uses Di Feisheng 's armor as a hot pad. And I think that's all you need to know about Li Lianhua's way of living out his affections.

so did i misunderstand a line of dialogue or is the Lotus Tower actually build from the ship that Li Xiangyi and Di Feisheng fought on? are you telling me that Li Lianhua is lugging around the ship from the night he's punished himself for, for ten years, and living inside of it?

[kseniyagreen]

What I find especially funny and at the same time absolutely heartbreaking about Di Feisheng. The Mysterious Lotus Casebook shows us such a crowd of characters - cheating, selfishly obsessively jealous, abandoning their partners, lying, using, hurting, raping, torturing their "loved ones".

And here, against the background of this whole panorama of human meanness, the image of an absolutely classic Enchanted Knight shines - who will go through fire and water, through torture and humiliation, but will get a miraculous flower for his beloved. And in fact, he will not ask for anything in return except just for continue to exist.

And this Enchanted Knight, the embodiment of the classic mythological dream of love - the leader of the outcasts, a graduate of the gladiatorial arena, with a reputation as the main villain, without social skills and with zero desire to acquire them.

And yes, he is also gay.
