babygirl i am so so normal abt burial mounds era wangxian

[happypeachsludgeflower]

I’m updating my blog’s header and profile picture. I’ve come up with a handful of trash related designs and need help deciding which to use!

To elaborate on the options:

tinkaton’s hammer will be full of fandom’s that are falling out and markpeko wants to eat them; potentially there will be other pokemon hanging around picking up fandoms that fall out.

xie lian will be mostly inside the trashcan also filled with fandom nonsense while mu qing and feng xin are trying to yank him out and hua cheng will be in the background cheering xie lian on as all good husbands are known to do

wei wuxian is being fished out of the trash like a feral raccoon by lan zhan and lan qiren is in the background telling him to put it back where it came from because it probably has rabies or something while lan xichen uses the distraction to sneak away with his own trash gremlin jin guangyao

literally what it says—the pokemon that have the trashiest vibes, i.e. zigzagoon, ratata, marpeko, toxel, skuntank, etc. chillin in a trashcan together like it’s a hot tub

Fanbinding: SanRen by @kyogre-blue

Summary:

Leaving YunmengJiang in an effort to curb the tensions in the Jiang family, Wei WuXian becomes a rogue cultivator. Even without the support of a sect, he is a rare genius whose name will become known across the cultivation world and whose techniques will influence the course of a war. However, what influences his own fate is a chance meeting that becomes the first step toward love.

The cover of this book is self-made bookcloth, painted with mountains and a burning gold sun. The spine features the same lotus as seen later as a scene break. The hexagram array around the title (and all later arrays) are taken directly from I Ching drawings and diagrams. On the cover, the hexagram title is printed on vellum so that the marbled paper behind can show through.

I sewed the headbands in WWX & LWJ's colors. Though difficult to photograph, you can also see here the slight shine of the red-reflective pigment I colored the edges with.

Further fun with hexagrams!

The chapter headers incorporate a Fu love talisman design set over mountain scenery.

I had so much fun designing this book! The design itself is partially a love letter to a book I was recently gifted by ruby/hosruba during the @renegadepublishing Exchange. Their use of single column chapter pages and printed vellum over a colorful paper was inspiring!!

This fic was chosen by me as part of an exchange with @pleasantboatpress. I received a lovely copy of "Two Solitudes" (a Hannibal fic) from them. We each picked a fic that the other had yet read to recommend to them, and bound that fic and sent it to them. And if you are into MDSZ, I also recommend this fic to you!

What a fantastic read it was! I was really touched with this fanfic. It is set in ancient China but there's no guest lectures. There's also a podfic for lazy readers like me xD @reluctantways

Kay: This lovely person also created the lovely header for the fic rec!

Tie Your Heartstring Up Tight

by athena_crikey

M, 54k, Wangxian

Summary: Lan Wangji could not hope to find any other person like this, at least not so far from their home. But wu speak to birds and beasts across the realm. He may be known to them. He may be recognized, somewhere. The ravens and the hawks hear the name and cry it to the skies; the mouse and the fox both carry it with them through snow-washed fields. Below ground the beetles gnaw it into roots and bark. Wei Ying. Wei Wuxian. OR: Tasked with finding the Yunmeng Jiang's missing wu, a young man called Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji recruits a familiar and travels across the land in search of him. His familiar, a black hare with a little too much personality, seems to have his own secrets.

What do you, OTNF, think of modifier tags? Not the full on Tumblr style chatty tags that would go better in the summary or notes, but little things like "kinda" or "in both ways" as a separate tag to clarify how the fic fits another tag.

Would you say those tags all right, since they give the reader a good idea what what to expect from the fic, or do they not belong there because filtering the "kinda" tag in or out has no purpose?

--

I don't mind chatty tags, actually.

I take the headers as a whole. What I want to see is a text block that is short enough and coherent enough that I can grasp it quickly. Number of tags is less important than the whole thing being fairly concise and listing the main important highlights.

Something that would be appealing to me would be like: [main ship], [trope 1], [trope 2], kinda, [funny chatty tag of no more than a couple clauses]

If the individual tags aren't too long, I'd be fine with a half dozen more trope/setting/etc. tags. More than that, and my eyes start to glaze over in most cases. And yes, this absolutely does mean that if your ship has really egregiously long names full of pipes and horrible AO3 canonical formatting, I don't want to see as many trope tags as if they're "Jeff/Bob". (This is also a good reason to sometimes not use the AO3 canonical if there's a current synonym that has nicer formatting and that will still make your fic show up in the right filters.)

I want you to balance visual impact with filtering. Both are important. The more real estate you need for the major tags, the less is left for the modifiers.

I class "kinda" with "the author regrets everything" or "no beta we die like wei wuxian" type tags: they give flavor, but I don't want to see more than one or two per header. (And putting them in the tags gives a slightly different flavor than putting them in the notes or summary.)

They do serve a purpose. That purpose is vibe.

What they aren't is all that informative in terms of plot: "Dubcon, kinda" is probably giving me the same info as "dubcon" plus other tagged tropes and a summary would.

"top/bottom, both ways" is probably better filtered for with "switching" or "top!X, top!Y" or some other set of tags.

"Character death, kinda" is far less useful than just using one of the canonical Not Really Character Death tags, which I often filter for intentionally. (They are Presumed Dead, Temporary Character Death, and Fake Character Death, if you're curious.)

There are also a lot of modified single tags that already exist for things like "mentions of X" or "light Y".

So I'm not against modifiers overall, but I think that the majority of them aren't really helping you. Include them if they're funny and your tags are short. If you genuinely need to clarify which version of a trope is in the fic and it's not something that can be conveyed in a few-word tag, put it in the notes or summary.
