大鹏金翅鸟 (Golden-Winged Great Peng)(the mythological figure that Xiao is partially based off of)

Translation of some facts on the Chinese Baidu page

- a guardian deity bird in Chinese Buddhism

- Born with capabilities for flight

- Has diamond-like horn with glowing precious pearl, steel-like talons and beak, sword-like wings

- Hot sand rains from its golden wings

- Lives on a great sago cycas (sago palm)(tree)*

- Need to eat a dragon king and five hundred small dragons (all with poison) everyday

- The dragons are extremely violent, and light up at death, reducing their entire body to ashes, and can burn the surrounding woodland park(?)

- The heart of the Great Peng Bird is a precious pearl that sinks to the bottom of the ocean after its death

- Since it feeds on dragons which have poison, the poison will accumulate in its body, and it’ll fly up and down seven times before flying to the top of a mountain and burn itself to death

*I was surprised that even Xiao’s preference for Wangshu Inn (which is built around a giant tree) may be an allusion to the Golden-Winged Great Peng

[TL] Basketball at Dusk - Masterlist

Story type: Sub | Season: July | Chapters: 10

Writer: Kino Seitaro

Characters: Asuka, Kanae, Kiko, Botan, Mitsuru, Himari, Renren

Plot rundown: Botan hasn't attended basketball practice for a while now, and Asuka's getting really worried... Just what might have happened to her?

TL notes:

Renren uses a CN yakuwarigo (she adds アル ['aru'] at the end of most of her sentences, as a caricaturistic way to show she's Chinese). Normally I wouldn't translate this, but since it was very prominent... I've localised it by adding Chinese particles at the end of her sentences.

You can take them as mere flavour text, or, if you're curious, check my list of their rough meanings and usages here.

I love going completely overboard with worldbuilding as soon as I get an idea for an au. will this be mentioned in the fic? probably not. am I doing it anyway? of course

#elli rambles #I blame theo for giving me the idea (it’s a pj.o lot.r au) #anyway. who wants to hear how I’ve constructed annabeth & rachel’s names in elvish so I can reasonably explain why I ‘translated’ their #names like that? #that’s too bad I’m telling you anyway #annabeth’s name can be constructed completely. quenya ‘anna’ meaning ‘gift’ + sindarin ‘peth’ (+ lenition -> ‘beth’) meaning ‘word’ #I could have her be a poet of a writer of some kind to explain the name #I could also go with Q ‘enne’ instead of ‘anna’ meaning ‘thought/purpose’ which rather fits her I think #for rachel it’s harder bc the /tʃ/ doesn’t exist in either quenya or sindarin #but the sequence ‘ty’ (/tj/) does (in quenya) which is similar enough #so I went with Q ‘ré’ meaning ‘day’ + Q ‘tyel’ meaning ‘end’ #it could be an epessë (elvish given (nick)name) given to her by annabeth referencing dusk/sunset #technically I /could/ just make her have an undisclosed westron or adûnaic name but where’s the fun in that #also the reason between the changing of vowels is that the e & é are pronounced /ɛ/ & /ɛː/ and /ɛ/ & /eː/ in sindarin & quenya respectively #which is closer to the ‘a’ in their english names than /ɑ/ or /a/ #I am aware I’m being a massive nerd about this. in my defence I Am in fact a massive nerd

I feel like I might get flack for this and I’m sorry, this is just my personal opinion from what I’ve experienced, but

Something funny I noticed is that while I’d argue early Digimon (at least for the first few renditions, I only ever was able to watch up to Tamers bc that was as far as Netflix had put and I had no other way to watch it so I can’t judge the rest) had the better anime compared to Pokémon, Digimon seems to struggle when it comes to the video game department

Which I find ironic, because you’d think the franchise about digital monsters in a computer would have the better games

#that’s not to say the few Digimon games I’ve played are bad or anything #(the ones I have played are Digimon World DS Digimon Dusk and a bit of Cyber Sleuth) #it’s just that the gameplay itself feels too close to Pokémon and less like it’s own thing #and it doesn’t really follow the rules of the show it’s based on #though I mean I suppose I understand given that the rules in the anime don’t exactly translate well to video game format #like the fact that a person can only have one (or two if they’re a matching pair or something) Digimon #kind of limits what you can do with all these mons #although you could just have it be that you have a party of human characters each with their own Digimon with different abilities #though from what I can understand Digimon Survive is doing something similar to that? #if so good for them #it’s just that in the long run it feels like in terms of gameplay Digimon had the weaker setup #anyways #digimon #pokemon #video games #random stuff

[intomybubble]

ouch…

#desiree talks #desiree reads #this is another work by the same author as shounen note and #and our dreams at dusk #its called hiraeth #it has an official translation but sadly its only digital #i acutally will buy it physically despite that bc its so pretty #i really like stuff about mortality and supernatural #the covers are very pretty and i really like how the artist frames panels

Update for part 2 of Revenge, the plan will be changed to fit with the actual thing.

No dropping TNT carts ontop of Grian and Scar :')

It'll basically just be what actually happened in the Battle of Red Desert (I just decided to use Grian's title of his episode cuz why not)

I was in the middle of writing the whole thing and thought, "Why not just re-write the whole thing to actually fit the real thing!" which I am doing!

Stay tuned for the part two of revenge!!

📝: Cas birthday live rough translation

Someone asked Cas who the first person was to wish them happy birthday today and they said it was Jumin. They said that they’re roommates and they’ve been together for a long time so they naturally remember each other’s birthdays without fail. Their parents also called them on video for their birthday and it was nice to see them even if they couldn’t be together.

During the birthday live, Cas shared some behind the scenes for their cover video. They said that they felt silly running around so much with balloons but it looked really good when they were monitoring, so they were satisfied. It was awkward filming without members and they wished that at least one of them had been able to be there. It was their first solo content so they were very nervous, but they’re happy that Dusks seemed to like it.

They apologized that the song isn’t in Korean or English but they really wanted to share this song with Dusks as it’s a song that gives them energy and healing. They hope that, even if Dusks can’t understand the words, everyone can listen to it comfortably. They promised that this won’t be the only content like this and that we should look forward to the future.

There’s this one part I really loved in Yun Jin’s character story 4:

The section talks about how the Opera Troupe’s fans used to call her grandfather Sir Yun (not a straight translation from云先生, Yun-xiansheng) and how in present-day after a performance, a fan also referred to Yun Jin herself as xiansheng because of her skilled performance. Someone asks how could a young woman be called xiansheng, and Yun Jin basically says that older, more knowledgable people are referred to as such, but not all knowable people are old, and women can be knowledgable as well. Then she drops this line:

「先生您快人快语，称得上先生，年轻女子答得上您的问，自然也配称一声先生才是。」

(Official translation edited to include some honourifics)

"You [sir] are quick in mind and speech, and are thus qualified to be called Sir. I [a young woman] have answered your eminent question — [naturally] that also makes me [qualified to be called] a Sir."

YUN JIIIIIIIN😭😭 From her character concept video it was revealed that the team “referred to many literary works in history — women who are both accomplished and have their own ideas such as Hua Mulan, Mu Guiying, Liang Hongyu”

Note about the 先生(xiansheng) honourific: it’s used for academics and learned people older than oneself, and is a gender-neutral honorific (like Professor or Doctor in western culture)! Though in the English version, Yun-xiansheng was localized as “Ms. Yun” (Zhongli’s Good Evening voiceline) and “Sir Yun” (Yun Jin Character Story 4) which loses the meaning a bit.

how absolutely outrageous is this????

the first statement says, “give others food, and tell them kind words"

the second statement, literally translated, means "may your fasting be accepted, your sins forgiven, and your iftar delicious" (iftar is the first meal we have after fasting from dawn till dusk, literally means breakfast)

they’re now tormenting palestinians with the things they don't have. a huge part of Ramadan is family gatherings for iftar, with different kinds of food and dessert. it's also about strengthening your faith with God as best as possible through prayers. now, how can palestinians in gaza have all of this when they lost their homes and families? the children are orphaned and the wives became widows. the mosques are demolished. there's not even CLEAN water for them to break their fast. they're being starved.

the IOF are also notorious for bombing and killing palestinians practicing Islam every year during Ramadan, so can you imagine what will happen now that they've been on a rampage for six months?

keep speaking about palestine. keep speaking about gaza. it keeps getting WORSE.

Zettai bl: is a comedic manga playing into bl tropes for laughs, absolutely should not be taken seriously

Me: imagine being mc and you're the only one aware of the world you live in and you have to be constantly on guard or else forces beyond your control will shove you into a relationship you never asked for and now all your friendships have become superficial because anything could turn into a flag and you're not willing to risk it would that be fucked up or what

#starts thinking way too hard about a gag manga #this post was brought to you by the live action during the scene where mc's friends are all eating together and hes sitting alone #knowing that they're in relationships with each other #the eng subs translated him thinking he was 'the only real person' idk how accurate that is but like! fucked up! #chit chattery #idk why i have so many thoughts. this is not a serious manga #dusk liveblogs #amlb

Basketball at Dusk - Epilogue (10/10)

And here is the end of the journey! I once again struggled a lot to pick screenshots so I decided to just do beginning and end moments, haha...

I really hope you all can enjoy a last sweet moment between these two as much as I did :)

Featured characters: Botan, Asuka

Location: School Gate

Botan: She got really angry, huh...?

Asuka: Man~, President Segacchi looked really scary, didn't she~?

Honestly, why do I have to work under President Segacchi as a Disciplinary Committee member...?

But, but! Komacchi-senpai is the best senior ever! So balance is achieved, yeah~?

Botan: No. I'm still no good as a senior.

It's not just you, Momochi-san — there are many other juniors who look up to me, and yet...

I acted selfishly and tried to quit the club.

Asuka: Hnn...? "Momochi-san"?

I remember you called me "Momocchi" before I fell asleep, right?

Are you back to using "Momochi-san" again~!?

Botan: I wonder. Maybe you heard it in a dream, Momochi-san ♪

Asuka: A, a dream!? But I'm sure I heard it! I heard Komacchi-senpai saying "Momocchi"!

Botan: I'm happy for you, Momochi-san. Looks like you had a nice dream ♪

Asuka: Eeeeeh~!? So it was a dream after all! Noooo~!

But well, if it was in the dream, in the dream it stays. Nothing I can do about that ☆

Until the day Komacchi-senpai calls me "Momocchi" comes, I'll do my best ♪

Botan: That's the spirit. Momocchi ♪

Asuka: !

Komacchi-senpai, just now, you called me "Momocchi"...

Botan: I meant to say "Momochi-san", though.

Maybe you're hallucinating it, Momocchi?

Asuka: Gh, ghhrrh...! Please don't tease me like this, Komacchi-senpai!

Botan: Fufu. You've still got a long way to go, don't you, Momochi-san?

Work hard so that I can call you "Momocchi".

Asuka: I-I'm frustrated, but I'm also all fired up now!

In order to get acknowledged by Komacchi-senpai, I'll keep doing my best from here on!

So... You too, Komacchi-senpai, please.

Won't you please show up to the basketball club more often? Just a little bit more would be fine, so...

Botan: ...

Right.

I'm sorry I made you miss me.

Hey, Momocchi. Give me your hand.

Asuka: Sure, but... What for?

Botan: Since it's gotten dark, let's walk home holding hands, okay?

Asuka: Can we? If you're fine holding hands with me, then sure ♪

Botan: Mm.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm not going to say selfish things anymore.

Because, even if I go act as support for other clubs... I'm part of the basketball club.

Because — I'm right here.

...Uh, Momocchi. What are you looking at?

Asuka: The starry sky! I just saw a shooting star~☆

Botan: Where was it?

Asuka: Uuum, well, it was around the top of that building...

Wah, I can't see it anymore!?

Komacchi-senpai, outside of matches, you're so relaxed that it's almost like you're a whole different person, huh~?

Botan: That's true. But don't mind that.

The night is still young. So, someday, I'm sure we'll be able to see it together.

Together, the two of us...

Okay?

Ooh love when the ideas for a character come on their own and also establish a friendship

Wynne (the new Maren character) is an engineer who makes mechanical art, which naturally, makes him want to collaborate with Dusk, who makes strange, unknowable machines

Dusk then appreciates this because he's happy to have someone who's trying to understand his work on their own and with simple confirm/deny sort of questions rather than pressing him with the stress of trying to express their functions and purpose with his limited ability to physically speak Common Draconic

They speak the mutual language of mechanical devices as art and it makes it very easy for them to form a close friendship

#Realizing that Dusk kinda represents my own difficulty verbalizing my thoughts #Because I think so heavily in like color and texture and non-verbal sound I can NOT translate that into english easily #And Dusk physically struggles to mimic more verbal language like he CAN but it's exhausting and difficult #Dragons and beastfolk are built different from him vocally and having to write out his thoughts takes a long time #So him having someone who's happy with a gesture or nod or headshake is a relief #Because his new friend understands how machines work! #Wynne is also patient with him writing down more complex responses and diagrams

Mirror sex with Hyunjin!! Being able to see his gorgeous face while he fucks you from the back, he's so pretty😩‼️

🏷️ hwang hyunjin x fem!reader. cw ; dom!hyunjin, fuckboy!hyunjin, mirror sex ofc, unprotected sex, dubcon elements, degradation, dirty talk abt forced breeding, pet names: doll, name calling: slut, whore ( 576 w. )

minors dni. for mature audiences only !

“would you look at that, doll. prettier than any picture.”

he was, of course, referring to the way his cock slid in and out of your slick cunt. his eyes hadn’t left the sight since he’d first buried himself into your tight heat. but your gaze was focused on his face instead: his perfect profile, beautiful features twisted in pleasure.

black strands of hair stuck to his damp skin. if it wasn’t for his large hand pressing down between your shoulder blades you’d attempt to twist around and lick the sharp slant of his jawline.

“filthy slut, letting me hit it raw.” hyunjin punctuated his words with a slap to your ass. you clenched around his cock, every ridge and vein causing delicious friction. you knew he was a fuckboy and you should know better than to have him use you like this… but the memory of his gorgeous face lighting up when he spilled onto your back was enough to throw all care out of the window again.

“bet you wouldn’t even protest if i didn’t pull out.” he wrapped an arm around your torso and lifted you up, your sweaty back pressed against his chest. the change in angle and the risqué suggestion had you gush around him. hyunjin laughed. “i knew it. sluts like you get their brains fucked out once and they turn into cum-hungry whores. what do you think, should i give you what you want?”

“n-no,” you stammered, just lucid enough to know this would be a terrible idea, ignoring the spark of heat in your tummy rearing its ugly head. 

hyunjin hummed and grabbed your chin, tilting your face towards the mirror. 

“do you see my cock? see how wet it is? that’s all on you, doll. you wanted this.”

heat flooded your cheeks at the sight of your bodies tangled together. hyunjin slowed down, pulling out as far as he could. his impressive length glistened with your juices. even if you hadn’t been able to see it the wet sounds would’ve told you enough. you were thoroughly soaking him. 

“hyune, we shouldn’t…“

“we shouldn’t. but we can.”

his hand slipped down to rub circles on your clit, your trembling body fidgeting in his tight grip. for the first time you wished he wasn’t this perceptive. regretted how he could read your body so well. how he left no doubts about feeling your orgasm approaching fast. 

“your mouth’s saying something different than this tight pussy’s telling me.” hyunjin’s hand around your chin moved down to your throat, fingers flexing in time with the fluttering of your cunt around him. “so who’s speaking the truth?” 

“hyun-ah!” you managed to whimper before his fingers found their way into your mouth, effectively silencing your pleading no’s. the twitching of his cock inside you told you he was close, too. it was that thought — the idea of his cum filling you up and leaking down your trembling legs — that pushed you over the edge. 

one, two, three, four thrusts. hyunjin pulled out, white ropes of cum painting your lower back as he stroked himself to completion, your empty pussy clenching around nothing. 

a pang of disappointment rekindled the heat in your gut, embarrassment mixing with the afterglow of your fading orgasm. hyunjin’s dark eyes found yours in the mirror. a smug grin now graced his features and he nipped at your earlobe, his breath hot on your skin. 

“thought so.”
