pride month is ending soon so I'm unleashing my joongdok doodles from the basement

They're so silly stupid dumb bad at expressing their feelings go hug or something go eat a cupcake together

[mauveflowers]

Reading the novel and watching SHJ/HYJ interactions is so funny because they go from this standoffish and hostile relationship to them 400 chapters later literally pulling some Shakespeare-level homoerotic drama stunts it’s wild.

SHJ isn’t even influenced by the keyword that’s just What He’s Like.

Why is noone talking about the fact the MaoMao is hinted to be Bi

so I finished novel 6 of apothecary diaries. And I'm gonna make a few quick observation:

during novel 5+6 and especially during novel 5 Maomao is clearly grieving Loulan as a very important person (Loulan/Maomao FTW!!)

she also shows on multiple occasions that she loves Jinshi very much. Because I have seen some posts who wonder if maomao loves Jinshi at all I will elaborate what I mean:

Thing is Mao Mao cannot conceive of herself as pretty or sexual. She usually doesn't want to think about her body at all. She sees Sex as something consorts do not as something she does. So when Jinshi proposes to her Maomao can't hear this as romantic but as a job offering she is ill suited for. She thinks she has neither the body nor the connections to offer him any advantages as a bride. But if Jinshi would ask her to be his loyal retainer for the rest of her life, follow him wherever he goes, take care of his needs, fight his enemies etc I'm pretty sure she would say yes in heartbeat.

This is cannon in my heart <3

[mudinyourshoes]

The show has been faithful to the novel so far and hope they keep it up because there is one thing I desperately want to see.

spoilers under the cut

when XZ finally goes public with his affection for SL and everyone goes: But what about the apocalypse? Couldn't this lead to the apocalypse?

And XZ response is: Yes, could be the end of the world.

And everyone starts begging him to reconsider and SL tells him to fuck off, she doesn't want to cause the apocalypse. And he. His response is: :( :( yes, it's too bad. My behavior is not so good. Oh well. I'm so ancient, bored, and lonely that the apocalypse has ceased to be meaningful to me. The world can end, if it wants. Sorry that's upsetting to all of creation. Special apologies to my girlfriend, who is now yelling at me. No I will not reconsider. :( :(

What would you do if your god said that to you?! I'd either try to axe murder the bastard or go weep in a corner. Realistically: the corner.

[vergeofpanic]

Cale: No

GoD: please Cale, I just need you to travel across worlds for a bit

Cale: I already said no you motherfucking bastard

GoD: You'll have a chance to see Choi Jung Soo

Cale: and be around two hyperactive individuals who could kill me any second, in your dreams

GoD: They said they have lots of money

Cale: ...

Cale: count me in you stupid bitch

Novel Spoilers: Lout Of The Count's Family: A Theory

Cales unknown affinity to animals, it was a throw away line from the series but what if that line was the series pointing it out? Here's my evidence:

Eruhaben the ancient dragon takes to Cale quite quickly, even if it was originally out of curiosity. But even after his curiosity was gone he still hangs around. That could be due to Raon, but he has called Cale 'his child'.

The cat kids, On and Hong who were originally wary of him suddenly aren't, one could say it's because he fed them, but they are used to being ignored or hated, so do you think that one meal would be enough to gain their trust 'but he gave them food two times?'. Yes, but they didn't know he knew that they were beast people.

Raon. He was cruelly abused by humans and all it takes to get him to follow Cale is one decent speech? Even after Cale stated he did not want a dragon following him he kept following Cale, why?

Bear tribe mainly follow Cale due to being threatened at first, but even after the war it never mentioned them leaving? I don't think Cale would be one to keep troublesome beings like the bear tribe around if he didn't have to.

Muller, one would say he stays cause he's rewarded good, but would that good a pay be worth being in constant fear of your life (his fear of On & Hong)? I don't think so

There are many more examples, but I do not feel like writing them all down, so I'll just give a list.

The other dragons, Rex, the Tiger tribe, the Penguin tribe letting him perform a play against the white star in their village, the elementals even though they're not technically animals.

So, yeah, the list is pretty long, but it's not just exclusive to animals, examples

Dark elves trusting him so easily

The elves not treating him like sh*t

The gods (e.g GoD, sun god, god of despair, etc)

The White Stars odd want for Cale to join him

Duke Fredo care for him, not just his blood

Now why does this happen? My theory: his transmigration. His soul does not belong in his body, and all the mentioned Animals/people have an affinity for sensing mana of nature, so maybe they're drawn to the displacement of his soul. Like, maybe the GoD messing with his soul is unconsciously drawing the to him, but that's just a theory, have a good day, thanks for reading.

Yoo Joonghyuk x Reader; A story of two regressors

Haha didn’t think I would do ORV? Y’all I need more orv fics, HUGE novel spoilers so beware, but no explicit spoilers so if you are only WEBTOON reader and have no context of the novel you may end up confused, I will write novel free version, and it will be available later this week or next week so stay tuned!

You both were the same, yet different

The both of you had been given the skill “regression,” and thus you both had agreed to be companions, before Kim Dokja appeared followed by a noticeable Han Sooyoung. Beforehand it was just the two of you, the both of you bled together and teamed up in the previous regressions, the two of you wholly relied on each other and swore to always to keep the other in check, regardless of how far along you would be.

When you both met, it was your 0th turn and his first turn. You both were in different cabs and came out of the train, along with Kim Namwoom and Lee Hyunsung. Eventually meeting Lee Jihye and recruiting her aswell saving Lee Seolhwa from Anitus. You barely recall what had happened in that regression aside from bonding with the crew and having a playful relationship with Yoo Joonghuk, you teased him a lot, trained with him, and the two of you became each others support, each others weight. Was that to say the two of you were romantically involved? No, both of you were prioritizing your survival and plus, Yoo Joonghyuk had his little sister to protect. Regardless, you bonded over your power aswell as the fact that you would see each other again in the next life, until your quick end came within a few scenarios.

When you woke in your 1st regression, you recall Joonghyuk calling for you, clearly a bit disheveled, you were happy to see he also was sent back, but sad when you realised your old companions weren’t. It was hard, you couldn’t reminisce with Jihye about the early scenarios, couldn’t bring up the funny moments with Namwoon, or even small talks with Hyunsung unless they happened again…but even if it did they…felt so different. You recalled how Joonghyuk was a bit colder in that round, but still a bit hopeful nonetheless, and then the both of you were approached by Anna Croft, where you found suspicion, he took the offer she gave, an offer to save the world.

Once again Lee Seolhwa was in your group except her relationship with Joonghyuk was much more…comfortable I suppose. You thought you had seen his eyes linger on her on the previous round, and now you were sure because it was clear he had feelings for her. You often told him not to let his feelings take over, for they were in the middle of survival and loving someone would just be tragic, yet he continued to love, and while you warned him for his own good you couldn’t help but feel…petty.

You watched as they would eventually get married, and eventually they even were going to have a child, and while you supported them every step of the way your heart continued to ache, and then Anna Croft betrayed you all. You recall how Joonghyuk cried when his sister died, he looked to desperate at that time, but when Seolhwa and his unborn child died he went mad, so mad that he accidentally killed you, but even as you were dying you held on him tight, hugging him, apologising for being weak and promising you will be there in the next round. By the time he was able to snap out of it he cradled your body, and for the last time he cried, and then it all went black.

When you met in the next regression, his third one, everything that you had gone through felt so…distorted, it was as if after all of that time you went through hundreds if not thousands of regressions ahead rather than just one… but when you met Joonghyuk who looked rather shaken but closed off completely you confirmed it was the 3rd round, after all if it wasn’t the third round what round would it be, a secret unknown round hundreds of rounds ahead?

This round was much different, he considered you his companion but he was so cold, he monopolised what he could and was different from before, but it was understandable considering what he had went through. On top of that not only was Kim Namwoon dead and other people had survived, a suspicious man named Kim Dokja also appeared and had known the future. It was interesting, he knew of Yoo Joonghyuk but when he looked at you he seemed confused, and he was pale when Joonghyuk said you were his companion of his last two rounds despite Dokjas offer, but it wasn’t as if it was because you had taken the offer, it was if you were an anomaly, a glitch in the system, something that wasn’t supposed to exist, or maybe he didn’t know you existed as he seemed confused about your presence. It was different for you as you seemed to have recognized him, you never seemed to have met him but he looked so…familar. He wanted to help, but the last time Joonghyuk trusted someone both of you died horribly, so he tested him by throwing him off the bridge and sure enough, he proved himself through the scenarios.

It was the three of you until Han Sooyoung came along, another woman along with Sangah, Heewon, and Gilyoung who looked familar…it made you think every time you were stumped, but you guys remained close nonetheless. You would train, laugh when Kim Dokja did something to irritate him, and Joonghyuk would try his best to comfort you when you felt like you were gonna go into the regression depression just as you would with him(Though Kim Dokja was the one who would help the most.) There were times where he would even doze off near you, times where he would cook for you and times he would leave you with Yoo Mia, and if either of you “rested your eyes” on each others shoulder, nobody would say a word.

“Do you think this time we will make it to the end?” He asked you surprisingly, you thought his optimism was gone but it seemed that he still had hope left. “I don’t want to get our hopes up but…we have Kim Dokja so I’m sure we will be fine…” You trailed off, but he knew you were worried, he patted your head as he took his leave out of the base. Strange, he didn’t do that ever in this round…

Kim Dokja always took the lead rather than Joonghyuk this time around, and you were grateful as he always protected every one (at the expense of his safety unfortunately, which you would bonk him over the head for.) But even so, the way he always looked at you was so…off, it wasn’t jealousy, in fact Han Sooyoung who often was with Dokja in terms of plans even looked at you confused and suspiciously, it was as if you had never existed beside Yoo Joonghyuk, which couldn’t be true, you were in Joonghyuk previous regressions right? They knew Jihye, Hyunsung, Seolhwa, aswell as others and knew how things worked, and yet when it came to you… perhaps it was some prank as the two were always together, it had to be right? After all you were in the last [redacted] regressions-

“Wait, what did I just say..?” You thought as you blacked out

you were in a dark abyss, but you could hear voices around you, some were panicked and others were calm, and a huge amount of memories flooded through you, yet you couldn’t pick through any of them, they were all distorted, and suddenly you heard a deep but clear voice.

“A shame really,” the deep voice said as you felt a gloved hand stroke your cheek, “after all of those rounds of suffering, I’m left to see him reap the rewards? A companion who could regress despite the presence being non existent before hand.” What? “And a companion who knows the future, and yet that person remains as arrogant and ungrateful as ever.” He wasn’t referring to you, he was referring to that person. You wanted to see who was infront of you, or seemed to be in front of you, but the hands moved from you cheek to your eyes and covered it as your body, “relax,” the voice said somewhat gently, “you will be back with HIM soon.” As you felt your body becoming more relaxed and heavy, you heard him mention that person again, aswell as some mumbling, but there was one sentence you could hear from him clearly, and from the direction of his voice you knew it wasn’t towards you, but towards that person again, and his voice carried both resentment, and sadness;

“Why is it you, but not me?”

Credits go to the ORV Novel and its amazing authors, I hope you enjoyed this story! I won’t deny that I actually tried to dig a bit into lore with this fic! I have no plans to write any sort of series in regards to my lore, but I do have an idea of the lore. If I ever do put it out there someone, as long as they credit me can do it in my stead! Farewell!
