#it's just me a-ming!

Day 6 of posting my thoughts until I find a friend

(In the context of poly 3zun) I love the thought of JGY using LXC like a Trojan horse to get together with NMJ. LXC knows ofc and he knows he can butter NMJ up a little before suggesting anything to him. Sjizdjsjwj I just love love love the idea of LXC being able to see JGY's more calculating, morally dubious personality (sans the murder) and accepting him anyway bc "he's just a little guy <3" lol he'd be so conflicted at first though

LXC: "Idk A-Yao, I don't like the sound of that..."

JGY, already designing their wedding robes: "Cover your ears, then."

i see some confusion on tumblr as well, so let's clear up the issue of Gaming's name

嘉明 gaa1 ming4

sample via twitter user @/lilysqingxin

pronounced like gah-ming

expert mode: gah (high nasal) ming (downward)

NO it's not the english word “gaming”

this is Cantonese, not Mandarin (which would be pronounced Jiaming)

it's romanized as Gaming and not Ga Ming because that’s how Genshin romanizes given names

most of the chinese speakers i’ve personally seen, both cantonese and non-cantonese, are leaning towards hyphenation: Ga-ming

but yeah, that’s it!! welcome gaming we’re so happy to have you 🥹

Hi! I got supper busy! and by busy I mean injured.

I'm fine but hey happy trans visiblity day!

totally unrelated but I have just been laying around distracting myself so now I have decided to once again draw a cast line up. All the martial gods for now, since I got to tweaking up the QYZ and YY one I'd already done and redoing my awfully huge poster thing I started like 4 years ago now. Doing it this way is more fulfilling to me, maybe one day I'll return to it but not now.

My new ship just launched and one of them doesn't even have a fucking name

For real tho, this un-named Wan Jian Disciple is such a snarky bitch. I love him.

Kudos to @grubus for making such enjoyable OCs

I'm elated!

aita for asking my nephew why he needs to be gay? i (M39) saw my nephew (M18) kissing a guy and asked him if he had to be gay when he’s already poor. my boyfriend (M29) seems to think i was too harsh.

modern au fengqing is real because in their world therapy exists while in original universe they just have pei ming and his only advice is to get laid

It's the desperation that does it for me. But it's also the parallels at play here, the way that Joe is trapped in the past just as much as Ming is only for Joe he's trapped between his actual past and the past of his body while Ming is trapped between the past and what he did to ruin his own past. Ming is the picture of trapped, trapped in his own choices and his pain and trapped in a past he wants to fix but can't because he's still screaming for what cannot be to come back and he's trapped, he's lost, he's aching and screaming and constantly lashing out because a caged animal can know it's caged but that won't change the pain of the walls so close together.

(Joe going from Tharn assaulting him to Ming assaulting him was so painful and brutal because he still does love Ming and wants to be understood and the lack of trust is agonizing for him because he keeps trying despite knowing how bad of an idea it is to try at all. And Joe was hoping for something different even if he knew it never could be different.)

So you traded your privacy for me? But it's worth it. Because the last movie that I played, there are both of our names in it.

imagining the story from pei ming's perspective is rlly funny i think. this god from all that time ago ascends again (you were there for the first two times) and immediately waltzes into a situation that fucks something up for your descendant (putting both of your reputations on the line, messing up how hard your descendant worked to become a god and how hard you worked to ensure that he would have that chance) and then refuses to let you smooth the situation out and on TOP of that your friend's little sister (who hates you and who you are trying to look out for by request of your friend) is on your case about it too. so you've gotta work all that out and then like. you chill for a little bit (still kind of upset about your descendant) until your friend undergoes a heavenly calamity. and then in the space of like A Day the god from earlier shows up again with a fucking ghost king, your friend dies, the little sister you're supposed to be looking out for disappears, and everything just kinda goes to shit. so you're like. grieving. trying to process everything. until your OTHER close friend goes off the fucking rails with the spirit of that guy she murdered, and then you get called out to the spooky ghost mountain where you're confronted with the girl whose death YOU were essentially responsible for and have never really come to terms with, and then like. you just kind of hang out with these gay people until everything resolves itself. fight some ghosts. fight the heavenly emperor. get your friend to stop being evil for a little while so she can fix the filing systems. and then you just have to keep being the god of love i guess
