ches! :] for ffwf: what are some of your current wips? (i'm guessing if i ask you to list / briefly describe *all* your wips, that would result in a stupidly long post, but if you wanna ramble about, like, a few of them... i'm very curious :] )
oh no this is a dangerous ask-
okay so! current brainrot is mostly coming from a wip im calling dandelion seeds for now, which is a genshin fic for quinn because he gave me brainrot for jean/kaeya/diluc and i'm dragging everyone down with me. it's basically this softer thing about feeling like you've changed beyond recognition, and people welcoming you back anywway, and the feeling that oh, maybe something's still there for you.
i also have shine like my petals once shone, and yeahhhh, i stole the name from the amazing devil, but it fits!! basically my kaeluc longfic where i'm re-using my soulflowers au for the nth time, and it's all about coming together and falling apart, and not gonna lie, i'm betting on it being my longest fic on ao3 by the time it's done, 'cause they've only just met and it's 1,000 words, and i still have 12+ years to cover just in the first chapter-
oh yeah! last one, i have a random drabble about hu tao and qiqi, because they'd be interesting as siblings (funeral director + zombie), so that's something i'm messing with :3
and ummmmmmmm. yeah. those are the main two things i'm writing right now, plus or minus a few random projects and things i can't talk about :D

“In the war film, a soldier can hold his buddy—as long as his buddy is dying on the battlefield. In the western, Butch Cassidy can wash the Sundance Kid’s naked flesh—as long as it is wounded. In the boxing film, a trainer can rub the well-developed torso and sinewy back of his protege—as long as it is bruised. In the crime film, a mob lieutenant can embrace his boss like a lover—as long as he is riddled with bullets.
Violence makes the homo-eroticism of many “male” genres invisible; it is a structural mechanism of plausible deniability.”
–Tarantino’s Incarnational Theology: Reservoir Dogs, Crucifixions, and Spectacular Violence. Kent L. Brintnall.

Randomly thinkin about Chilchuck today, and how he tries sooooo hard to self sabotage
like for example, other half foots on the island think that he's a greedy asshole who only cares about money, and he does nothing to try to disprove that
but then there's this omake at the end of book 9 that shows that people treat half foots fucking TERRIBLY and chilchuck started a union to protect them
and then in the bicorn chapter, he doesn't want Marcille to keep digging into his personal business so he tells her he CHEATED ON HIS WIFE
but he just COMPLETELY fuckin lied about that and made himself sound so much worse than he is bc he's afraid of being vulnerable with people and would rather everyone believes he's a shitty person so he can keep them at a distance
and the thing that's memed so often is that he refuses to help with fighting most of the time because it's not part of his contract
but if you take this lore into account (not gonna add those particular images to this post simply bc I've used them in so many posts already LMAO) along with this tidbit from the world guide:
then it's like. yeah he has to keep his weight low so if he gets killed or severely injured and has to be healed, that could be really dangerous for him. and even if he was healed at that point he'd end up being a burden to the party after that point, he would be too dangerously thin/sickly to be able to help.
Like, Chilchuck has so many things about him that APPEAR to be character flaws, but every single one of them has a very reasonable explanation. He just leans into the mischaracterization bc he's emotionally withholding and can handle people thinking he's an asshole more than he can handle opening up to anyone. he's such a well thought out and interesting character
