very sleep deprived but what if: "I dunno, I'm just saying--" sqh wiggles his eyebrows at him.

"stop saying. immediately." to punctuate his words, sqq goes for his true and tried technique: throwing a fan at sqh's forehead with deadly accuracy. it strikes true before the other could dodge and the other lets out a hiss of pain, but stops talking with a small whine of "bro--" and a pout.

a few minutes later, when sqh is still sending him shiny wide eyes and exaggeratedly rubbing at his forehead, sqq sighs. without thinking, he leans over to smack a giant wet kiss on the slightly reddened spot, pushing a bit of spiritual energy into it. he dismisses down the intense urge he has to bite and make it worse. the mark disappears.

"there, I healed it. fucking happy?"

"very happy, thank you very much"

sqh looks at him from underneath his eyelashes, a teasing smirk growing on his face at getting sqq to capitulate, and sqq rolls his eyes, bc sqh honestly could've and should've done it himself, what does he look like, a fucking healer?? he already has to deal with without a cure and sure the amount of energy needed to heal a small knock on the head was so minuscule that it wouldn't affect him even on a bad day, but like???

he's been giving in more and more these days but its not his fault that the airplane was so convincing when he started to act fucking pathetic and just made sqq feel bad for him a little.

(and okay, he likes how vicious, apathetic, hyper competent a-hua can sometimes just be so cute and needy--)

someone cleared their throat.

sqq instantly freezes. he carefully does not notice from the corner of his eyes how sqh has also gone rigid.

in eerie and stiff unison, they both turned their heads to face the rest of the room. the very full room. the very full room of other peak lords. the very full room of other peak lords because they were currently at the monthly peak lord meeting.

the very full room of other peak lords that were staring at him and sqh because they just witnessed him plant a kiss on sqh's forehead.

the silence stretched.

damnit, airplane.

Story idea for anyone to use: Shen Jiu critiquing Shen Yuan as a critic and pointing out all the holes in his analysis and reflective skills on storytelling.

"The beast was clearly intended to be a cautionary protagonist, but every time Airplane tried exploring that, you bitched and moaned because "his tiddies too fat, he needs to win" or some other drivel. You call yourself a critic? No, you sweet summer child. You sir, are a hack."

Shen Yuan would probably die on the spot tbh

[endless-nightshift]

Look Shen Yuan and Airplane(in leu of his pre transmigration name) are in fact a match made in heaven BUT in any timeline that they up in the same vicinity as Luo Binghe and Mobei-jun they will both mutually pivot to best friends bordering QPR. Because although they might be eachothers types your Ultimate wish fulfilment man trumps the sane version of your ultimate wish fulfillment man every time, in this essay I will-

Idk if anyone has done it yet but here’s my best guesses for some of the background npcs in side order!

one of the true highlights of the qsmp was introducing non-french speakers to how fucking awesome and hilarious etoiles is

[huntersapprentice]

that one Sailor Moon meme, and some doodles

[sentrys-shadow]

I saw Thunderbolts* for a 2nd time at the cinema today, it was just as good as the 1st time, if not better.

Did anyone else notice that in one of the pieces of magazine cover art before the credits the guinea pig Yelena rescued was at the helm of the boat. I loved that little detail.

Hey guys what do you think of my uncontroversial lunch

[piosplayhouse]

Honestly the more I think about it the more I really think the sun and moon dew mushroom rlly should've been an amorphophallus instead

- extremely rare and take an immense amount of expertise and tedious care and special conditions to bloom (to the point where one blooming is an incredibly proud event for gardens and often publicized to draw visitors nationwide)

- on average take 5-7 years, sometimes even 10 for some varieties, to reach maturity

- human sized

- called the "corpse flower" (because it smells like rotting flesh)

- weird penis shape

- variety called amorphophallus yaoi

"flora will see us if we go back there!!" COWARDS . BOTH OF YOU

lucas vazquez is leaving and i’m not okay about it. yes, this season hasn’t been great for him. but let’s be real, it’s not his fault 😭😭😭 he was never supposed to be a starting defender, and the board put him in this situation by not signing anyone in january. he did what he always does: showed up, gave his everything, and played for the badge every single time. no complaints. no drama. just pure madridismo.

no matter how this season went, i love him so much. cafucas, i’ll miss you forever 🥹🤍

When you love a person, you love them unconditionally.

andy, i need to know as a local vegetable enthusiast have you seen the guy on tiktok who went viral for eating entire cucumbers?? i feel like you’d love it

Omg Logan????? Not only have I seen him but I've made three of his recipes this week lmaoooooo. I have been having cucumber salad with everything, all the time, every day.

Have you made anything of his yet?? The one with the greek yogurt and red onions and dill is soooooooo fucking good asldkjhskfjhsdf

So, here’s the thing, I love well-written fantasy novels but I have a really hard time finding ones that fit my vibe? If you have recs for me, I would LOVE to hear them! I’d be super super grateful. I like a good focus on worldbuilding, complicated characters, a bit of a dark edge, and real high stakes. Some of my faves are:

The Chronicles of Amber - Roger Zelazny

The Book of the New Sun - Gene Wolfe

Tigana - Guy Gavriel Kay

A Wizard of Earthsea - Ursula K. LeGuin

Discworld - Terry Pratchett

Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell - Susanna Clarke

Piranesi - Susanna Clarke

Oryx and Crake - Margaret Atwood

To Say Nothing of the Dog - Connie Willis

Domesday Book - Connie Willis

The Lord of the Rings (esp. Silmarillion) - J.R.R. Tolkien

Gormenghast - Mervyn Peake

The Once and Future King - T.H. White

The Fionavar Tapestry - Guy Gavriel Kay

A few things I’ve tried and they just didn’t click with me:

A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin

Neverwhere - Neil Gaiman

Foundation - Isaac Asimov

Several Witcher books - Andrzej Sapkowsky

American Gods - Neil Gaiman

Also I don’t know where to put The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss because I’m deeply unhinged about it and love it and hate it in equal measure and am determined to write a better version. What a waste of a character. What a waste of worldbuilding. God I’m so Shen Yuan about it, you don’t even realize

The "Tanguish comes from space au" that no one asked for, aka star boy Tanguish.

[Words, if hard to see: top page: "Star boy Tanguish! ✨️"

above Helsknight: "-Very good with a sword -Normal human with issues✨️ -A knight from a renaissance faire -Is mostly made the villain (in the faire anyways, not the plot line) (if I ever did make a plot line)"

Below Tanguish: "-Star boy from space :D -Silly little guy (full of whimsy and curiosity) -He just appeared one day -Flotes -Tango (who is probably his brother) is a sun boy"

Hk + Tg doodle (bottom left): -> at Hk's shirt "shirt from his work" -> at their hands "Yes they are kinda holding hands Tanguish is playing with his (Hk) knuckles" -> (Doodle bottom right): -> at Hk "tired, just came home from work" -> at Tg "vibing, playing caramelldansen"]

The plot would probably go something like Helsknight being depressed (or something this is a very rough outline) losing the positive outlook on life, sees a shooting star one night and is like "oh look a bit of whimsy on this dull spot of life. I wonder what its like to be a star" then boom Tanguish apears (he doesn't talk, idk how he communicates) and starts trying to turn his life around. While this stuff happens shady things are happening and somehow those two put a stop to it. At some point Tanguish makes the decision to stay on earth with Helsknight. Boom end of plot, cool, whatever.

Here are some close-ups
