15, 25, 9 (I GOTTA), 4, 24, 38 👁👁 -guq✨

15. Do you write in the margins of your books? Dog-ear your pages? Read in the bath? Why or why not? Do you judge people who do these things? Can we still be friends?

I don't judge people for dog earring pages, nor do I judge them for writing in the margins, I just like having cute bookmarks and writing down my notes in my phone bc my handwriting is terrible

25. What is a weird, hyper-specific detail you know about one of your characters that is completely irrelevant to the story?

nie mingjue lies, not meanly or to get away with things, but the kind of lies your parents tell you when you're asking them too many questions and they make something up on the spot

9. Do you believe in ghosts? This isn’t about writing I just wanna know

I do believe in ghosts! I've had a lot of experiences, so many to the point where I'm more or less casual when talking about it

4. What’s a word that makes you go absolutely feral?

angry feral it's daemon bc it's pronounced the same as demon, they're just being fucking extra and they need to stop

24. How much prep work do you put into your stories? What does that look like for you? Do you enjoy this part or do you just want to get on with it?

the most prep work I do is after I wake up in the morning, I lie there and think like Ursula le Guin recommended, if I'm working on a chapter fic, the chapter is written the day of posting

this is not a good process. Do Not Do This.

38. What is something about your writing process YOU think is Really Weird? If you are comfortable, please share. If you’re not comfortable, what do you think cats say about us?

definitely the lack of planning, but also my habit of just? forgetting that I've written certain fics so when they show up in notes on here or notifs on ao3 or something I'm always very ???

You know that bit in The Prince of Egypt when Moses encounters Miriam and Aaron as an adult and Miriam quietly reprises the lullaby portion of “Deliver Us” a cappella, and it’s haunting and impactful in its simplicity?

That’s the vibe Wangji singing Wangxian.mp3 in the cave SHOULD have had, but unfortunately CQL is allergic to ever having the song be diegetic!

#I did not realize that WWX playing the song is how LWJ recognized him until I read about it online #bc as far as I could tell as a viewer they were just showing me a montage set to a backing track that I’d heard countless times before! #if LWJ is singing to him then he should be SINGING TO HIM #they do the same thing when WWX plays the song on a blade of grass—beautiful flute solo with backing instrumentals. from grass. #at least they avoid it when JGY plays his Evil Music; both Cleansing and Turmoil come from a single guqin so it’s clear HE IS PLAYING IT

so i saw this post about how modern nhs would use his phone as a equivalent of a fan. and tricking people into thinking he's not listening when is. and i added my own 5 cents and now i have a drabble! unspecified modern au with nhs as wwx's and jc's problem radar because it's not the gusu trio if they don't get themselves into some problems! unedited + written late, i might expand this au later... maybe

He was a party soul, honestly. He loved going out and spending time with people, listening to music, dancing, and anything but spending time studying. And it was no surprise that Huaisang was now sitting on someone's couch, in someone's house, he didn't really know the owner– But a good party wasn't happening every day! 

"...nah, no, we'll deal with him quickly."

He was alone though, with only his phone to keep him company. But it wasn't a problem really, he hadn't checked his Instagram feed for an hour now, so he had plenty of things to waste time on. Until someone comes up to dance with him. 

"Are you sure?"

He sighed. It would be great if someone did... Despite all his love for social media and all, he didn't really want to spend this whole night just on his phone, listening to the party noises. 

"Obviously! Come on, he's just a fucking brat who thinks he's in power now. All bark but no fucking bite."

His finger stopped mid-scrolling, his attention caught by a photo posted by one of his friends. Eh, Jiang Cheng wasn't a person to post anything often, so it was a big occasion! He tapped the screen twice and quickly opened the comments section. 

"I don't know, he seems strong... he beat up two people at once."

He typed a short comment about the photo and how shocking it is to see him active at all, before closing off the app. Though, he was even more surprised to see that almost instantly he got a notification back. 

"But they were unprepared losers. I'll get the old man's people, get some knives or something and we will fucking deal with the fucker."

It took him no time to open direct messages with Jiang Cheng, seeing that he was online. He was bored, alright? And Jiang Cheng was the perfect person to text! Well, maybe because he was sometimes funny to tease... 

"...you want to kill him?"

He texted him about how he was at some boring party and had no one to dance with, he had no one else to bother in other words. As if Jiang Cheng cared, was the reply. 

"Nah, wouldn't risk jail because of trash like him. Just stab him to show who's actually in power and that's it. A warning, you know."

Nie Huaisang sighed heavily and clicked out of the app again. He stared at the screen for a moment and opened the camera instead. He posed to the camera, opting for the same, well known pose he had in most of his party photos. 

"I don't want to deal with his brother if anything serious happens to him, though." 

It took him a moment to actually make a good photo, good quality, and all in this party lighting, but he looked super cute! He opened Instagram again and posted the said picture. He couldn't be bothered with a good caption, so instead, he just put the first emoji he had in his recent ones and tapped "post". 

"Ha! As if he cares about this annoying orphan... He will thank us for dealing with him, watch it."

And then, he opened his direct messages with Jiang Cheng again. 

you: you better watch ur brother btw

jiang cheng: why

you: [pic]

The photo was showing two guys sitting near the couch Huaisang was occupying. If they were a little less obnoxious and not so fucking loud, maybe he wouldn't hear their full conversation and their plan would succeed, but, well! Maybe if they cared about their surroundings more. 

you: ive been listening to them talk for some time

you: and they might be out for wei-xiongs blood

you: this time literally 

jiang cheng: fuck

jiang cheng: what the fuck 

you: take care, you two

Nie Huaisang tapped out of the app and raised his eyes from the phone. His gaze lingered on the two men, talking loudly and drinking some random liquor he was sure wasn't even party sponsored until his phone screen went black.

Well, he should sit around for some more, maybe. Who knows what else he would accidentally hear? He pulled out his earphones. This is going to be a long, long night it seems.

writing the 'soulmate' prompt for polyship week (I know I'm late lol) but it's gonna be Nieyao-focused right up until the very end...does it still count as a polyship if Lan Xichen doesn't feature in it at all?

#it's based on that post by guqin-and-flute that littlesmartart just did art for where reincarnated Nieyao find themselves drawn to a shrine #that Lan Xichen tends but they don't know that yet they just know they're drawn to the shrine and to each other but something's missing #so like idk #3zun #Nieyao

WWX plays the flute so he's good with his mouth and LWJ plays the guqin so he's good with his hands in this essay i will-

#mdzs #mo dao zu shi #original thots #wangxian #i said what i said

[erivroom]

when did wei wuxian learn how to play the flute

like lwj spent years learning how to play the guqin

did wwx practice flute at some point or did he just pick it up and know how to play it by feeling where the notes go in his balls or what

i though about a silly "bad boy x popular good boy" highschool au except the bad boy isn't really bad... just people talk stuff about him. and it ended up being sangcheng coded so. here it is lol cross-posted from my twitter account

to people at school, jiang cheng was... well, a bad boy. err, he has attitude problems, always walking with a scowl on his face, it's hard to talk to him, he's even often heard threatening his brother! unbelievable...

so, people are kinda avoiding him. just not talking unless necessary, yes? he came to school one day with a broken nose, so he probably beat someone up in his anger, truly scary.

no one really saw him beating someone up though, but.. rumours are strong. someone sees one thing and tells another, someone passes the story to someone else and suddenly people create a whole new picture of you, doesn't matter if it's true or not.

(jiang cheng saw it happen on a bigger scale, but that was in the past now.)

but to nie huaisang, jiang cheng was his boyfriend. and it was so, so weird! huaisang was a nice guy, maybe he didn’t have the best grades, but people liked him. he was nice. funny. popular among people. total opposite.

and even though no one questioned it out loud, people couldn't understand why someone like this was with nie huaisang.

(the someone like this was a boy that loved huaisang very much, but wasn't good at showing it. a boy who loved dogs very much, but couldn't have one because his brother was scared of them.)

(this one time he came to school with a broken nose was because he accidentally gave a dirty look to someone on the street and got himself beat up, hah! huaisang couldn't help but laugh at the rumours about a-cheng "beating someone up.")

(a boy that was raised among arguments and screams of his parents, kind words of his sister, love of his brother and his own insecurities and fears, and worries.)

(a broken family, a broken feeling.)

(he shouted and threatened, but still cared. a boy that spent weeks searching after his brother when he went missing, but never let anyone know.)

(he was a loving boy, really, and the rumours weren't true at all.)

no one dared to question why huaisang was very to bring even stars and the entire universe to the boy, because they knew better. but, well, that's a story– a rumour, a gossip! for another time...

Inspired by @jinguangshanhateblog's polls!

Do you play a musical instrument? Do you have a sense of rhythm? Do you know where the tuning pegs should rest with a guqin? (hint, it's not on the table...) Can you tell the sound of one instrument from another?

Vote and see who will be crowned worst cdrama musician! Write-ins and video/photographic evidence very welcome! If you voted for another instrument, for all guqins, or for all flutes, please let me know in the tags or comments!

#word of honor #nirvana in fire #guardian #the untamed #love between fairy and devil #legend of fei #the disguiser #the blood of youth #for guqin playing there is an exception for certain scenes in the untamed #and also this one scene in love like the galaxy which oscillates between crimes and no crimes #poll

Nie Huaisang: If Wei Wuxian can play a flute and Lan Zhan is a guqin virtuoso... what instrument can you play, Jiang Cheng?

Jiang Cheng: I can actually hold a note.

Wei Wuxian: Gasp! How dare...!D:<
