Yeah nothing Jason does would work in the real world. Good thing he does not live in the real world. He lives in Gotham, which operates on the logic of Hollywood movies from 40 years ago. Oh wait- perhaps that’s integral context for his character!!!

having a rule to not kiss hookups / non-relationships in the mouth and oliver just grins so big to himself every time he sees you stare at his lips a beat too long when he’s fucking you. bonus points when he skims his mouth against the corners of yours just to pull away when you try to turn at the last second. likes the look of pity on your face as if you didn’t set the rule yourself!!!!

As a chinese-canadian and a long-time user of xhs (xiaohongshu/little red book) I thought it might help to have some information and gentle reminders addressing the many rules + what kinds of content you can post on the app :)

To start, there's a lot of misconception about being able to post anime content. We aren't averse to Japanese content or media- as a matter of fact, there's a pretty big anime and cosplay community, especially on xhs!

Here are some photos from my trip to suzhou! (dungeon meshi and skip to loafer content was a mythical pull lol)

With that being said, it is disrespectful and offensive to post media and content containing or associating with the glorification/apologia, themes, symbols, etc., of Japanese imperialism and involvement during WWII. This includes AOT, MHA, and many other other popular animes.

Please note that I do not support censorship: I believe that people should have the freedom to post, express, and create media on social media platforms as well as have the ability to watch different kinds of shows - but considering xhs is an app from a foreign country, it is important to contextualize its local policies through historical lens. I strongly implore non-Chinese users to research Unit 731 and the Nanjing Massacre to better understand why certain types of content from Japan are banned and blacklisted in China.

2. There are active LGBTQ+ communities on xhs- and for many queer people in China, where the country's ideologies are still pre-dominantly conservative, social media platforms is one the few safe spaces where they can express their sexuality and/or gender identity, particularly for wlw (or le). It is important to keep in mind that progress in the LGBTQ+ rights movement in the East, specifically China, is at a very different stage compared to the West; please be respectful of the fact that the Chinese LGBTQ+ community has their own culture, their own slang, and their own ways of expression in a country where LGBTQ+ people continue to face legal and social discrimination.

3. When you first create your account, you might be quite daunted by the long, long, long list of rules and community guidelines, specifically the first section, where it states, "1. Values - XiaoHongShu encourages users to post content that aligns with current positive social values. All content posted should:

Adhere to the Chinese Constitution and laws.

Practice the core socialist values. (A list of values promoted by the Chinese government, which includes: prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, the rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendship)

Promote patriotism, collectivism, and socialism.

Spread the correct views on history, nationality, state, and culture.

Promote the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation.

Uphold social ethics, professional ethics, family and personal virtues, and respect public order and good customs.

Promote scientific thinking and popularize scientific knowledge.

Advocate a positive, healthy, and progressive lifestyle and social trends."

No, this does not mean the content you post or interact with has to be about praising the CCP or saying, "I love communism!! 🤩". It just means you cannot be comparing Xi Jinping to W*nnie the P*oh (ifyyk).

The point is, try to avoid political discourse or criticism regarding the Chinese government on xhs, especially since xhs is a platform more akin to Pinterest or Instagram, where its more so a lighthearted place for travel tips, recipes, aesthetic fashion and makeup tips and inspiration, cosplay, cute animal videos, productive lifestyle and snapshots of simple life, etc! You can still discuss different things about Chinese culture and society, such as healthcare system, attitudes toward foreigners, income and spending, etc. But please be mindful that there are real people behind the screen; people who are not their government. I promise you, Chinese people are just as capable of poking fun, referencing brainrot, and interacting with non-Chinese people normally 💀.

Anyways, please take the time to review these rules and guidelines, especially since xhs is very strict about implementing them and can potentially lead to your account getting banned. This includes things such as:

excessive displays of wealth (be considerate of others' financial situations)

only sharing scientifically proven information/avoiding misinformation (no pseudoscience)

respecting boundaries (no nudity or sexual/sexually suggestive behavior; you can definitely show skin, but if you're making a grwm video please don't show up in your underwear - even on tiktok I never understood why influencers do that 😅)

etc, etc.

Many of the community guidelines are in line with social norms that are prominent in East Asia, which is understanding that a social media platform is a public space to be shared with others in a civil and respectful manner. And many of these guidelines refer to explicitness as a measurement - (fake) blood is fine, but gore and other such obscenities are not. You can kiss your significant other in a cute video, but you shouldn't be posting each other fornicating (this applies to both heterosexual and homosexual couples). You can swear, but you shouldn't be yelling racial slurs. Honestly, a lot of this is just common sense - xhs is supposed to be a wholesome, inspirational, and chill space!

4. Take this as an opportunity to learn about another culture, another language, and even make new friends! As long as you're civil, kind and respectful, xhs is super fun and entertaining! Of course, it's not representative of the Chinese internet space as a whole; the majority of users are women (so consider using "sis" or 姐 instead of "dude" or "bro" ). With that in mind, please be respectful in your comments - many of the women posting makeup edits or fashion videos are seeking appreciation, not sexual harassment 😅 even if a someone is posting a thirst trap, try to be tastefully humorous! If you're trying to communicate in Mandarin, I would suggest using the simplified Chinese Pinyin keyboard (QWERTY) and start learning the four different intonations of each character so you are able to sound out and type sentences using the alphabetical keyboard!

I hope this was helpful and legible, even if by a marginal amount (if this was actually incoherent, I apologize, I learned English by watching My Little Pony💀), and I hope everyone has a really fun experience on the app!

Council member: you know you’re only supposed to have 1 padawan maybe 2 not 15?

Luke: well until people stop leaving surprisingly powerful orphans at my doorstep I’ll be taking care of my 17 padawans.

Council member, exasperated: WHERE DID YOU GET 3 MORE!?

Luke: My husband

*Din waving in the background *

Council member: YOU’RE MARRIED!??

MDZS AU where Wei Ying is taken in by the Wen Sect and raised as a servant cultivator, a soldier. He saves Wen Ning from bullying in their childhood and becomes friends with the Dafan Wens. He grows to be one of their best weapons, but sees through Wen Ruohan’s oppressive goals

Wen Ning and Wei Ying are sent to Cloud Recesses (Wen Ning to learn, Wei Ying for infiltration) where Wei Ying makes fast friends with Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang, but Lan Zhan proves difficult. Lan Zhan is intrigued by the boy with harsh eyes and brilliant smile but doesn’t give himself away too easily, becoming a challenge for Wei Ying, one that the young cultivator can’t seem to shake his mind of. Wei Ying knows he should stop pushing Lan Zhan but finds himself enjoying the reactions Lan Zhan gives

Later, Wei Ying is sent to aid in the destruction of Cloud Recesses. This is the first time he realizes just how disastrous Wen Ruohan’s rule is and vows to try to stop it. He secretly saves Lan Zhan and helps Lan Xichen to a safe hiding place. Lan Zhan is infinitely more drawn to Wei Ying.

Eventually Wei Ying deals the killing blow to Wen Ruohan, usurping the Wen throne with the help of Wen Ning, Wen Qing, Jiang Cheng, Lan Xichen, Nie Mingjue, and Lan Zhan. Those involved in the attempted colonization are apprehended, while others (like the Dafan Wens) are taken in by the major sects (to provide safety and keep an eye on them)

Wei Ying and the Dafan Wens settled near Cloud Recesses; Wen Qing providing her medical services for the sect, Wei Ying and Wen Ning aiding as cultivators. Lan Zhan, who saw Wei Ying putting his very life at risk to protect others and stop Wen Ruohan, cannot deny his feelings any longer

One night, as Wei Ying smuggled emperor’s smile into Cloud Recesses, Lan Zhan catches him on a rooftop. Wei Ying gives Lan Zhan the brightest smile Lan Zhan had ever seen on the other and he can’t stop himself from rushing forward and kissing Wei Ying passionately. Wei Ying whispers “Am I allowed this?” to which Lan Zhan replies “My Wei Ying”

the new nightmare is cool but i think not putting them in hanfu was an missed opportunity

The thing is, I believe Bill and Ford DID have a fairytale romance. It’s just that the fairytale in question was Bluebeard.

[wonderfull-star]

I don't know why, but the more often I re-watch some moments, the more I begin to feel bad for Dev, and Peri reveals a worse side.

Like so many people basically portrays Peri as a better father to Dev than Dale himself, although he himself probably never even said that he "cared about him" until the finale. Unlike Hazel, who showed more care for Dev than his own father and fairy combined.

Dev doesn't even need fairy, he just needs care and love.

“you can’t have [anything that isn’t a strictly breakfast food] for breakfast, you’re so weird” no YOU’RE weird for caring. i’m just enjoying a scrumptious morning meal

was drinking a lot of vodka to get through the many many social interactions involved in a wedding party so I could run my social scripts on repeat without being overwhelmed, and then someone said an incorrect fact about lord of the rings and I immediately ditched all scripts stared right at them and just said “no. NOT true”

I’m thinking again about the chichi meta I still haven’t posted and how it essentially boils down to people thinking she’s harsh and unfair to Goku after the saiyan fight but if you’ve ever seen how much she Loves That Man you have to also do the math on her saying her ‘I knew I should not have left him alone with Gohan’ or smth line because what that tells me is while the saiyans were obviously not Goku’s fault, Goku has put that boy in danger frequently enough on his own that Chichi was scared to let them leave the house without supervision.

Even as an over-protective mom, which she definitely is, she is Goku’s biggest fan, she knows how strong Goku is, and if she still hits X to doubt he can handle the child, there’s a story there.

And I for one would like to see all of the stupid shit Goku has done with his toddler thinking it was okay for babies to do because how would he know it isn’t? He’s never met a baby before. There’s comedy gold in the gap years.

'vampires are bad at art', factoid just statistical error. most vampires are quite decent at their crafts. Marius De Romanus who paints like all his works were made by AI is an outlier and should not have been counted

How soon do ya think Tails starts to be comfortable with sonic? And how would sonic react? I'd imagine it would take a while so when Tails initiates any form of affection like a hug or leaning in for a head pat, Sonic thinks of it as a proud moment and his hearts squeezes internally bc why wouldn't it

This question is kinda based off your fics! I like where you have Tails be on the defensive even if he doesn't mean to be and how Sonic understands in the early stages since they've met

Thank you for the ask! I'm glad you like how I've portrayed the brothers in my fics so far :)

In the timeline of my fics, it's actually pretty quick how comfortable Tails gets with Sonic! Especially given everything he's been through. But Sonic is an unreliable narrator in the sense that for him it feels like it takes forever xD Which is pretty fair to him considering this was a spur of the moment decision; he didn't plan on taking on the role of temporary guardian/protector to a child who has a whole lot of trauma that he can't articulate just yet. Several weeks of that for an eleven-year-old who has no secure attachments and is constantly on the move is like an eternity of struggling.

But it really is only several weeks before they find their rhythm. Because Tails admires and looks up to Sonic from the start. He latches onto him immediately because he's the first person to show him kindness and to care about how he feels. Tails can feel that, it's just hard to fully comprehend it when his worldview so far has been shaped by people hating his very existence for reasons never explained to him. While Tails knows Sonic doesn't feel that way about him, he also doesn't know if that will change someday. Maybe Sonic just hasn't realized what everyone else already knew about him, and maybe one day Tails will do something wrong and Sonic will understand why everyone hated him.

That anxiety lives within him for a while, it runs too deep to be resolved at this age. But what can be resolved much quicker is Tails learning that not every touch hurts. Sometimes it's a fond head pat or an excited high five or a proud fist bump. Each of those make him feel warm and nice and special in a way he never has before, so he soaks up these signs of affection like a sponge.

The problem is that usually Sonic moves too fast, so Tails is often startled by the sudden flash of movement before Sonic can even make contact. So he flinches or bites on instinct, self-preservation beating out logic, until Sonic figures out that he needs to let Tails see that he's coming first. He'll hold his hand out, let him see it, then he can ruffle his fur or give him a fist bump.

Luckily, Sonic adapts to this quickly within those first few weeks, and Tails is super receptive to it. But Tails doesn't initiate any of the contact himself for a while longer. Even when he wants a head pat or to hold Sonic's hand to feel safer in crowded places, he waits for Sonic to make the first move most of the time. The only times where he does initiate the physical contact are when Sonic is sleeping or sick, like in the "Little Gestures" fics, or when Tails is really sleepy and instinctively seeking comfort, like in the little arcade one shot "The Weight of Responsibility."

But "Where Water Wears Away the Stone" is the turning point for Tails where he finally lets himself be comfortable enough with Sonic to reach for him when he needs him, at Sonic's prompting. Unfortunately, Sonic's a brat about it at first xD He's not proud and his heart is not squeezing with affection, it's seizing in a panic because they were never supposed to wind up this attached to each other. Sonic mentally pins 90% of the blame on Tails being attached to him, but what really scares him and what he's really been ignoring for the past few months is that he's already so beyond attached. And that's terrifying for a kid who's never had anyone quite like this in his life.

But after he gets over that, when he and Tails leave Aquatic Ruin Zone and before they get to Casino Night Zone, Sonic adapts again and realizes that it feels warm and nice and special to be the person that Tails decided to trust.

To sum up: it takes about a month for Tails to be comfortable with Sonic initiating any kind of contact. Then several more months for him to figure out how to be the one to initiate when he wants contact. The fear of rejection is just too strong in this one little fox. The one thing that consistently overpowers Tails's absolute faith in Sonic is his lack of faith in himself.

im just saying that some of the people on this godforsaken webbed site would probably not survive watching siblings/young children interact irl
