"A-Song, which story should we read tonight?"
"May we read the one with the butterfly again?"
"Does A-Song like butterflies that much?"
"Yes! Especially the ones that xiao-bo* makes..."
a few things... first, i didn't use jin rusong's appearance as shown in the manhua because that look is, um. Something. listen, i love my beautiful son, but i had no idea how to make that hairstyle work, so, i gave him cute bangs and a ponytail instead.
second, i don't actually know what he would call lxc?? i assumed that since lxc is jgy's sworn brother, a-song would be encouraged to consider him his "uncle", and since lxc is his uncle on his father's side, it would be "shushu", right...? pls feel free to correct me if i'm wrong!
*EDIT: big shout out to @paledreamsblackmoths for the correction!! since lxc is jgy’s elder sworn brother, he would not be “shushu”, which is used for an uncle who is younger than one’s father. thank you so so much for correcting this! apologies for not getting that right in the beginning y’all. RIP to everyone who reblogged this before i fixed it :’)
third, i have no idea if books for children were, in fact, A Thing in this culture during this time period, but i figured, even if they weren't, lxc would maybe have made one for a-song anyways? complete w paintings & stuff bc... he loved his little nephew... so, so much....... 😭
lastly, i think jrs is about... 4 or 5 years old here? i imagined this scene occurring roughly a year or so before his murder :’) for Maximum Pain.
if you’d like to read my terrible awful jin rusong metas, please go here and here :’) (though i’m still waffling on the historical accuracy of that second post...)
