i always find it funny how mxtx writes 6-7 year age gaps in all her main couples then makes them functionally useless in various ways.

with bingqiu: shen yuan dies around age 20 and transmigrates into shen qingqiu when luo binghe is 14. around five years later, shen qingqiu dies. five years after THAT, he wakes up in a temporary cheat sheet new body, unaware of and unaffected by any time that has passed, so he's mentally still 25-26ish. by this point luo binghe, who has been alive and fighting over his corpse the whole time as a newly awakened heavenly demon emperor, is basically only one year, maybe less, his junior. though nobody else in-universe knows, we can assume binghe is smart enough to eventually figure it out, especially after their marriage.

with wangxian, it's almost reversed. they start out being several months apart in age. wei wuxian dies in his early 20s, but unlike shen qingqiu, wei wuxian IS aware of the passage of time, though muddled. so when he's resurrected thirteen years later in the body of mo xuanyu, he's physically younger than 35-year-old lan wangji, but mentally not much different aside from catching up to how the people and places he used to know have changed. (it's a common misconception that mo xuanyu is a teenager or barely twenty, but if you dissect the timeline, he was actually somewhere in his mid to late 20s when he gave up his body.)

and finally, hualian, objectively the funniest: she slapped 800 extra years on them and called it a day. age gap, what age gap? a 10 year old peasant boy hero worshipped and developed a budding one-sided crush on the 17 year old prince of his country. after a series of tragedies they are separated for over eight centuries until they meet again as an 810ish-year-old ghost king named hua cheng and a 817ish-year-old god named xie lian, and then they mutually fall in love. basic math. amazing.

Keri Russell “Eight Days a Week” (1997)

[makingqueerhistory]

The Bone People, published in February 1984, winning The Booker Prize the following year, depicts an asexual, aromantic main character, and has sold over 1.2 million copies. Written by Keri Hulme, it is in part based on her experiences as someone who self-identified as asexual and aromantic. The Bone People explores multiple layers of identity like queerness, mixed Maori heritage, autism, trauma, and a wide range of disability. The novel is remembered as a classic of New Zealand literature and deserves more recognition as a queer classic.

Imagine a wxs little prince set with luka as the vsinger and she is the sheep(?) in a box that the pilot drew pls see my vision

Hi hello I'm sorry I took so long did you know the little prince is one of my favourite books ever?

I just saw this in my inbox and sighed and said "ah, so it's that time of year again" and then read the little prince from top to bottom again. Was it a waste of time? It's never a waste of time if it's something you loved.

Anyway yeah. Emu focus Little Prince set when. All my crystals are yours Sega just give me a chance.

shen qingqiu is a great danmei protagonist because his denseness is genuinely reasonable under the (meta) circumstances and his internalized bigotry is present enough throughout the story that we can see how it informs virtually everything he does post-transmigration, so it's not infuriating to see him completely misreading the signs.

this even extends past main romantic relationships like bingqiu! shen qingqiu comes back to cang qiong mountain all aw my cool xianxia fantasy coworkers haha so nice to catch up :) we are buddies :) meanwhile every single person in the room would and has gone to war over his corpse
