#screaming from the void

[void-writing]

the fact that the most recent episode of apothecary diaries omitted maomao's soft shell turtle story is its only glaring flaw.

truly was criminal that we were denied seeing maomao tell jinshi and gaoshun about the time she threw a soft shell turtle at a flasher as a kid and it bit off his dick

been looking into oracle bone script for...reasons, and am losing my mind a little over the fact that the symbols in the Lady Bone Demon's spell rings are literally just the Chinese zodiac in oracle bone script.

maybe not the most reputable academic source, but just look at it. they're identical, and match up with other reference sites i found (this one just happens to be the nicest graphic, clearly sporting all twelve of the zodiacs in both oracle script and the modern Chinese).

bottom row, left to right: horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, boar

like seriously? how cool is this?

how about maybe we dont call transmascs who dont work super hard to maintain their appearance ugly thats it thanks

i just want you all to know deeply and genuinely from the bottom of my heart. if you still buy into h*rry p*tter shit in 2024 you can go fuck yourself. joke rowling is a genuine fucking danger to trans and intersex people, as well as any cis person who doesn’t follow her fucking backwards white supremacist view of “womanhood”. she is a vile snake of a human being and if you support her in any way shape or form get the fuck away from me and my blog. and go fuck yourself.

i think there's a serious lack of fics where xie lian and hua cheng meet during xie lian's fang xin era and lang qianqiu either aggressively tries to wingman (because this stranger makes his usually stoic and serious goushi happy, and qianqiu cares about his goushi like family so on the gods he is getting these two together) OR--the more likely scenario--to defend his goushi from this shifty man who is clearly some devious shapeshifting monster with devilish intentions for his dear goushi (who is fully capable of defending himself from said devious shapeshifting monster even if he did have ill intent) but accidentally keeps wingmanning, much to his dismay.

I see your fucked up nightjars and raise you humming birds that absolutely should not be able to get off the ground because they don’t already struggle enough with keeping in the air in their base plan.

(marvelous spatuletail hummingbird, long tailed sylph, and scissor tailed humming bird respectively)

love the wing posts as a dragon autistic who also has it as a huge pet peeve and has infodumped to my mother abt it since we both watch hotd For The Dragons but can i also say. bird wings can also be fucked up so bad and it tortures me with birds as my special interest. i dont have any examples but it exists even if its a bit less common than dragon wings and its horrid. anyway keep wingposting its great

Oh I got one :) The pennant winged nightjar is so fucked

Weird freaks. They were like. Well I'm gonna make my wings rectangular. iirc though, they cant fly for very long so they can only do short bursts and glide (I think).

Nightjars in general are weird though here's some others:

(Lyre tailed nightjar. Just... why)

Standard winged nightjar. Normal wings but with Extras I guess. Lil cheerleader pompoms
