Made this for the #skirtjoong week on twitter!! Big thank you to @tootiredtoosadtooangry who came up with a punk AU after seeing mingi with pink hair for the first time and it's been living in my head rent-free ever since lol

[veilchenjaeger]

@veliseraptor tagged me in a thing! Thank you for the enrichment, it's highly appreciated! :D Here goes the thing:

3 ships: The ones I think about the most currently are: Xu Youyi/Yan Wei, Sha Hualing/Liu Mingyan, Marcus Flavius Aquila/Esca Mac Cunoval <3

first ship: That's probably Orube/Cedric from W.i.t.c.h.

last song: Spotify says it's Sunlight by Hozier, which is a Yiwei song. I've been listening to the new Hozier songs a lot, too.

last movie: No idea. Probably The Eagle (2011) dir.: Kevin MacDonald because it's always that.

currently reading: Die abgetrennte Zunge by Katharina Wesselmann, which is a pretty cool discussion of possible feminist readings of Latin authors commonly discussed in Latin class and features a lot of interesting thoughts on how we read and especially teach very sexist texts, and it's also currently on hold due to paper writing. I'd like to finish one singular academic book I don't have to read for class, please. Just one.

currently watching: Rewatching Couple of Mirrors with friend! :3 I also started GAP, but it's pretty mediocre so far, so it's also on hold until I have time.

currently craving: Free time for once in my goddamn life

I tag @tootiredtoosadtooangry and @bitterfrosts and @krispycreamsicle if y'all feel like doing this, and also @stripedroseandsketchpads if you see this bc Tumblr doesn't let me tag u!! >:(

hello sorry to bother you but i saw this post and all i could think of were jin zixuan and jiang yanli from your modern au adjabxbqj

HI SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG TO GET BACK TO YOU ON BUT I JUST HAD TO DRAW SOMETHING

this being in a modern AU where Yanli is advised to not quite be on bed rest, but at least at home most of the time during her pregnancy because of the side effects of her chronic illness, and she starts making videos of what she’s cooking each day to keep herself busy, and she winds up becoming pretty popular on youtube. Zixuan accidentally becomes her co-star after Yanli keeps telling cute stories about him as she works, and people have OPINIONS...

do you think it's possible to elaborate on your xy's head on xxc's knees thoughts or 👀

okay I'm going to try though I am concerned I might just end up sounding slightly insane.

so basically...I have a lot of feelings about the applications of, like, animal metaphors to Xue Yang specifically, and the ways in which they both have a tinge of...accuracy? to them, and also the ways in which they fall right in line with the continual dehumanization that is part of what fucked him up so bad. and I think they're something that he both resents and leans into - Xue Yang knows people see him as something animal (or worse, thanks Song-daozhang), and it both makes him angry and also is something that he will actively play up. it makes people nervous and also makes people underestimate him. which, sometimes Xue Yang wants to puff himself up like (watch this) an angry bird to make himself look bigger, but other times he's perfectly happy to play dumb if it gives him an advantage.

all this being said, then: I think I've gone on record before about the ways in which Xiao Xingchen, relatively uniquely (with the exception, I think, of Jin Guangyao and even that is...complicated) treats Xue Yang like an actual human person. and that, I think, is genuinely one of the things that knocks Xue Yang off his feet, because that really is huge. being cared for - even loved - not just for his use or skills but because he is a person who has intrinsic value...goes a long way.

thus: Xue Yang's domestication arc, wherein he's (at least partially) domesticated because someone isn't treating him as something at best animalistic, no ulterior motives, and the language here is important because, of course, domestication is language used specifically for animals.

so then I look at that art of Xue Yang on the ground resting his head on Xiao Xingchen's knee while Xiao Xingchen is sort of petting his hair and it's like. there's implications to that pose! there's a dynamic that's created there of subordination and submission, alongside affection and (with the positioning of his hands), a little bit of possessiveness. have you ever had a dog do the lean into your legs when you're petting them? that's kind of what it makes me think of. Xiao Xingchen's touch looks very light, but the position of his hands is such that it could also be holding him down. and then, at the other end of things, Xue Yang's eyes are open and staring directly at the viewer, and his expression still looks dangerous to me.

it's just this great combination of, like...Xue Yang as tamed/owned by Xiao Xingchen, by choice, but...barely. or partially. or only when it comes to him.

and look. just. when it comes to a certain flavor of xuexiao at least: feelings about the fine, fine leash Xiao Xingchen has on Xue Yang that's only there, that only holds, because Xiao Xingchen never, or almost never, pulls on it. domestication that only works because it isn't about taming something animal. submission that can exist because Xiao Xingchen behaves as though it doesn't.

not sure this arrangement of words makes any sense at all. maybe I just should've typed "ahhhhhhhhhhhhh xuexiao specific dom/sub dynamics where xiao xingchen isn't entirely aware that it's happening, also animal metaphors and xue yang's humanity" and left it at that

✨ weekend wip exposure club ✨

rules: post 7 sentences/a snippet of an unfinished work

dhbgfhds i do love that lil thing hdbhfdjsf thanks @hyperbolicgrinch for tagging me

so lately i've slowly got back into writing for myself. thanks to my job i get to write for my learners and it seriously helped with my own anxieties. that said, here is the snippet of a work i haven't finished and won't probably publish any time soon. it contains the prompt one of my friends, @tootiredtoosadtooangry, sent me, so i'll show that part dhbfshf i did rewrite it a bit.

Suddenly, Vivian felt some fingers catch a strand of hair against her temple and push it back behind her ear. She turned her head towards Aisha, whose hand had stopped moving, her fingertips still touching her ear. Aisha’s dark eyes sparkled with the orange light of the sunset, but Vivian couldn’t read them. She could only stare at those stars trapped between long eyelashes. As Aisha’s hand was slowly sliding from Vivian’s ear to her neck, Vivian’s eyes dropped to Aisha’s lips, half trapped in shadow. Aisha gently grasped some of Vivian's hair against her neck. Vivian gasped.

these are two oc's who were created for the occasion. i unfortunately know more about them than i wished.

i don't know who to tag but if you want to share something, tell me so and help yourself :3
