For anyone wanting to get back together with an ex:

The period between November 21st to December 5th will have a Venus-South Node conjunction which is very plesant for reconnection, focus on past relationships, giving an old relationship another chance. However it will be making a square to Pluto so if the relationship was previously unhealthy it could lead to more damage. Proceed with caution

I have something very serious to ask the author... What planet do you come from? Cause THIS FIC THIS IS OUT OF THIS WORLD

What an experience it has been to read this. It's a mini tribute to the fandom, truly beautiful!!!

Arthur being all simp for Merlin is never going to get boring and I think it's because it compensates a bit for the feeling of imbalance compared to what we see Merlin doing in the series.And let it be all whippedd by Merlin if it was satisfactory, it was perfect to make me kick my feet like a schoolgirl

Then we get to the sad part and the explanation that Merlin gives to Gwaine MADE MY EYES WATER How dare you? Merlin speaks to the reader there, I swear, we have been with him in his worst moments and we know all the pain in his heart.

It has been the perfect combination of anguish and comfort With a big and beautiful amount of fluff I'll read it a dozen more times I'm sure

"Merlin!” He said, smiling brightly with eyes wide. “Merlin, my love!”

“Oh Gods and Goddesses, please save me,” Merlin mumbled to himself as Arthur scrambled off the table and ran to wrap his arms around Merlin. The sorcerer groaned and looked over his shoulder at Arthur.

“But it hurts to be apart.” Arthur whined, proceeding to unceremoniously drop all 180 pounds of himself onto Merlin’s lap. “It hurts deep in here.”

Arthur grabs Merlin’s hand and rests it over his heart. Merlin just looks at him with a deadpan look as he wrestles his hand back and tries to shove Arthur off.

~~~

Or Merlin believes Arthur has been hit with a love spell and has to deal with an insanely clingy Arthur for two days while he tries to figure out how to break it.

A talk with the druids leaves him thinking about his supposedly unrequited love (and how it might not be so unrequited)

i have derailed myself. down terrible for shaoshang xinghancanlan lltg and speedrunning both parts as fast as possible with my mother. we um. binged 30 episodes in the last five days………….. me when the hetero period drama is treated not like a trashy ya novel where everyone has big eyes small face (listening to 银河漫漫盼归期 on the bus to jb like a weirdo) it is hard to put into words the sheer kind of resignation i have approached the xianxia/wuxia/general chinese period drama genre with for the past few years as after cql and woh we watched love between fairy and devil and til the end of the moon and who rules the world and dawg that shit made me Cry…. after much thought i have come to the realization that i have a personal vendetta against stories that only progress because there are 1) evil characters and 2) stupid characters i.e. there is blinding frustrating cheek gnawing cruelty askance but that shit just keeps looping because the protagonists are sooooo nice — that is to say, STUPID AS BALLS— and don’t assert themselves. xinghancanlan (and the drama we finished just before, xihuazhi (blossoms into adversity (dogshit english localized titles, i sob)) is so incredibly fucking refreshing on a basic storytelling level because it doesn’t linger. no misery porn (see: love between fairy and devil, til the end of the moon), no dragging out the jealous cousin who keeps torturing the protag and co, instead the plot! just! keeps! moving! it’s got places to go! and it motherfucking goes to them. god i want to eat til the end of the moon’s flashbacks alive anyway (separate story, very long) xinghancanlan also does so many levels of character storytelling and it does it like HELL the amount of care given to each parent child relationship in particular lord i haven’t seen a parent child relationship written with such nuance and care in a long time, if ever, as the one between shaoshang and her mom there is no villain!!! everything is terrible!!!! art imitates reality. and then you get her and her dad, ling buyi and the whole situation going on over there, the emperor, even wang ling’s family— these are not archetypes. they’re people. and that’s so nice. that the homies over there produced a show that lingers not on the agonizing nail ripping sobfests but on how hard it is to be a person

and then there is the fact of the production itself. not to fist my own ass or pat this one’s but this show approaches scene writing and transitions the way i approach my own writing and i have never seen that in any tv series let alone a chinese period drama where girl meets guy and it goes so FUCKIN HARD. i give example. character A and B gossip about character C for a brief period. “C is such a whiny bitch,” B says (this is a close-up shot). cut immediately to a close-up shot of C whining to D, and then one of D replying. just like that we have transitioned between place, time, and characters with this kind of fun witty filmography and writing that makes it feel like this scene is a continuation of the last due to the same style of face to face interrogation. but we are in an entirely different place

or, abruptly there is a scene of violence and brutality yet unseen in the show. it fades to black, and character H shudders awake at her desk. “i just had a terrible dream,” she says. but the scene after that is a continuation of the violence and brutality of earlier and we come to realize that this is very much a real moment in the story. the audience has been played by an inverse ‘it was just a dream’. it was not just a dream. even though it was shocking and gruesome. the story is moving to new places now

and more generally, the score reminds me so strongly of beijing opera with the way the music describes and foreshadows minute gestures; shifting eyes, a tic in the left hand, the slightest drop of one’s shoulders. there are new and interesting, relevant, thought provoking transitions in each scene. the framing of shots emphasizes specific character emotions and mental scapes. and shanjian is an emotionally repressed loser. it’s just so. so. (howling for 85 years). fucking dazzling to see a piece of art that has clearly been made with such care, my guys. and also is fun to watch. and is obviously having fun itself. i am reminded of the ways in which art can save people’s hearts as this saves mine. and shaoshang makes me want to cry, is such a hot mess and not at all one, gives so few shits and altogether too many, is just learning how to hold the love that others give her without trying to call it something else-/ she is so tender. i’m throw myself off a cliff right now. all day i have been wandering around jb muttering to myself about the beautiful and good things in the world. it can change your life to see someone smile even if it is fictional character cheng shaoshang from xinghancanlan. cannot stop thinking about this damn show. thank u for listening

aussi j'ai juste envie de me plaindre que c'est chiant la vie quand tu pars bientôt à l'autre bout du monde et que les seuls moments où je vais pouvoir passer du temps avec mon copain ce sera

1 dans ma famille dans le sud de la france, soit à 8 dans une maison franchement pas immense où tu peux pas être seul dans une pièce plus de 3 minutes pendant 1 semaine

puis

2 dans l'appart de ses parents à paris où pareil on se marche dessus en permanence et en plus je me sens pas franchement méga bien avec eux, pendant 2 semaines

bref je vais essayer de trouver un moyen pour qu'on passe quelques jours tous les 2 quelque part, sachant que j'ai pas bcp de thunes et que j'aurais aimé garder mes sous de côté pour des trucs genre l'australie et tous les frais non anticipés qui vont très certainement me tomber dessus une fois là bas, que lui non plus n'a pas de thunes et qu'on a pas de caisse bref la joie d'un mode de vie pauvre, nomade et dépendant

The main piece I did for @kallisto-k /DragonsIre's fic Creature Comforts Come in Fours for STBB

Read it here for some wholesome polyamory (and pathetic simping Billy and silly Eddie having zero control of his wings)

v’s johnny silverhand problem is so so sexy to me sorry cdpr... “uh oh our consciences are slowly fusing and the dividing line between us is becoming ever thinner and i live in your soul and you live in mine and also this process is killing the body we share” and yet you expect me to believe these people AREN’T in the most toxic situationship ever seen on planet earth? that they’re simply bosom friends? nothing more?

Will the removed songs get replacements do you think (like, recommissioned) or is it too late for that?

They didn’t say anything about recommissioning donketsu, but it wouldn’t surprise me if they did, mainly out of fairness to Rui lol. It was a 2dmv so it’s not like they need to throw away loads of resources on remaking a 3dmv or anything either.

Sorry for going MIA and then spam-reblogging on a random Tuesday… I'm not actually sorry but I thought I should address it anyway. So…consider it addressed.

[freebooter4ever]

ANYWAY it occurred to me that there won't be a lot of scoring in the near future....

[grimdarkfandango]

was the special kind of tired-distracted this morning (thinking about blorbos, 7:30am) that I put my coffee in the french press, poured in the water, popped on the lid, and then immediately plunged and poured it. didn't notice until I had already cleaned out the press and was standing in the kitchen going 'wait a minute'.

needless to say my thirty second brew was weak as shit, thankfully the only thing I had on this morning was watching surprisingly investing werewolf casefic cdrama with friends

morale of the story: make coffee before your coffee so you can make your coffee right (or maybe stop rotating blorbos for a hot second and remember what you're doing, but that's less likely)
