Book Club Questions
So I have a captive audience for the first vol of MDZS in December and I was wondering what kind of discussion questions you guys think would be good to have for the first book.
I was thinking of addressing the non-linear plot-line and doing a few introductory questions regarding the genre as a whole. These are older folks who very well may never have read outside of American and British Literature so while I'm not trying to handhold them in any sense of the word I can't just expect them to understand the genre and its workings without pointing them along that direction to think about those things.

the first of my pieces for the MDZS reverse big bang! i'm very excited to read what Zer0Two, my author, has cooked up! and you should be too! in fact i'm gonna go read it RIGHT NOW
you KNOW i had to throw in that book club energy, i made a promise to myself to be wild and include wen chao in every event i join :p
[id: an illustration of a modern take on wen chao, jiang cheng and mianmian. the three are walking along a path at a park during sundown, with trees and grass to their sides and a blue and gold sky behind them. each is accompanied by dogs; an ornate wen chao, who has his hair slicked back and is wearing a red t-shirt with white pants, has a large gray dog with a spiked collar, who is walking without a leash and eyeing jiang cheng's dogs, four small orange pomeranians. jiang cheng is wearing black pants, a light purple turtleneck and a purple varsity jacket with gold buttons and a gold snake pattern. he is holding a purple leash with little pawprints on it, which splits into four- the dogs have collars, but they are impossible to see under all their fur. he wears a clarity bell as a necklace. behind them, mianmian is holding a little rat terrier in her arms. she is wearing a black jacket with a pink heart on the sleeve, a layered pink dress, striped pink stockings and black boots. her earring is shaped like a skull. she is smiling in disbelief at the scene ahead, in which wen chao appears to be bragging about something while jiang cheng raises a single bemused brow to the right of him. /end id]

3) a stand-alone that you wish was part of a series: answered here!
10) a book that got you through something: gonna be completely honest, ao3 is what i turn to to get me through things 😭
13) your favorite romance novel: Red White and Royal Blue by Casey McQuinston. i LOVE this book, and i definitely have way too many copies of it 🫣

35) a book featuring the found family trope: Honey Girl by Morgan Rogers
43) a book that you have read more than three times: i just did a reread of The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan for book club and realized during a meetup where i forgot my book that i can literally recite exact quotes off memory alone. i've read and reread that series SO much across my life so far, and i will continue to do so
69) your favourite mythological retelling: The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. i've loved that book for almost a decade now <3
71) your favourite LGBTQ+ fiction: i want to say RWRB but i've already said it in this list so.

86) a book with an insane plot twist: The Echo Wife by Sarah Gailey. INCREDIBLE book
129) a book with beautiful prose: this one's kind of cheating since it's a poetry book, but Harmony by Whitney Hanson

I haven't the faintest clue who these people from the Chinese drama(?) are from but your posts allowed me to identify it when a grown as woman with her half grown ass kid came into my job and there were pins of them on her bag.
listen. listen it's like a sickness. i KNEW it drove people insane but then i got into it and then it drove ME insane. the author, MXTX, put some sort of drug into that book that makes people insane and i have been snorting every version of it. i cannot get enough. this is why you will now see it everywhere. you see a white bunny and a black bunny next to each other? that's wangxian. you'll SEE it now because it's everywhere. it's the ship behind that fic that broke ao3 and i get why now.
gusu lan's hottest club has EVERYTHING - an extremely intricate plot full of mysteries, the best main couple that invented Romance, some really interesting things to say about morality, two incredibly toxic and tragic polycules, the sexualization of headbands (just roll with it), tragedy literally everywhere but a happy ending at least for the main couple, some female characters that truly slay, 4 teens up to shenanigans with a friendly zombie, drunk gay bitches committing petty crimes, scenes that'll make you cry and then cry laughing, a confession scene that is literally the funniest thing i've ever read, a censored wedding in a blood pool....shit has IT ALL!!!!!!!
(it is called MDZS/Mo Dao Zu Shi and it is a serialized Chinese webnovel that has been adapted into many formats, the most famous being the live action the Untamed which is on Netflix and takes some, obviously censored, liberties with the original story but still bangs in its own right. i was told you should start by read the book, the official translation title is Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, which is 5 volumes and I read it from my library. I think the 5th volume isn't technically out yet so I switched to the fan translation someone sent me for the end. then there's the manhua/the comic, same english title, the official english translation is coming but isn't out yet, and is mostly uncensored except the explicit scenes, which the artist posted separately on twitter lol. then there's the donghua/the animated series, translated as Founder of Diabolism, which is currently my favorite adaptation of the original, i had to 🏴‍☠️ this one. it has a spinoff chibi shorts series that is also adorable called Founder of Diabolism Q. then there's the audio drama which apparently has all kinds of extra content that i gotta listen to. anyway. JOIN me in hell!)

Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime/manga, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before.....Thanks...
Sure i'll try my best to answer this for you
10-) Gaara from Naruto
Reason: He's the first antagonist i've ever rooted for, not for his plans but for his mental health. When i first saw his backstory i just wanted to riot bc damn, people really treated this boy like a monster since day one and then got surprised when he started acting like it, i just wanted him happy and at the least i got that at the end of the anime (No, i refuse to watch Boruto on principle)
9-) Tsukiyomi Ikuto from Shugo Chara
Reason: We all have our problematic shoujo male leads that we love. In my defense i watched Shugo Chara when i was 12 years old and it wasn't until later when i realized the age difference but even then i still have a soft spot for him in my heart. He and his sister suffered so much and i just want them happy, healthy and taken care of (he's also the reason why i'm into catboys now that i think abt it)
8-)Naruto Uzumaki from Naruto
Reason: He's my baby boy (not in a carnal way), i watched this boy grow up rooting for him to achieve his dreams, he's the first male protagonist i was emotionally invested in and ngl to this day i still read fix-it fics for his childhood because in my heart of hearts he deserves it (Still refusing to watch Boruto tho)
7-) Haruka Nanase from free! Iwatobi swim club
Reason: The reason is not as deep as the others i'm afraid, i genuinely loved Free! When it first came out, i was obsessed with Haru's character and the way he was as a person, he's extremely attractive and i want to crack him open like an egg and study his insides (he's also very shipable and i like that in a fictional man)
6-) Kageyama Tobio from Haikyuu
Reason: He's my awkward lil guy. I loved the way he developed as a character, from a temperamental, lonely volleyball genius to the type of guy that still uses the signature his upperclassman came up for him in high school as a pro player. I also really liked how we only got the reason why he was acting like he did in middle school only at the end of the end of the manga and how it made everything make sense in retrospect
5-) Hinamori Amu from Shugo Chara
Reason: Shugo Chara was my first magical girls anime and i still have a really soft spot for Amu in my heart. I know she's not the most well written deep characters around but i really like how she was an escape for me when i was younger. She was a pretty, popular, preteen girl who was an awkward mess and while i could only relate to the awkward mess, the fact that she got publicaly rejected by her crush and her taste in fashion i still watched her go because it felt good to see her do so
4-) Jason Todd from the Batman franchise
Reason: He's my babygirl (not always in a carnal way), this boy suffered so much in life, was happy for a few years, got brutally murdered, then brought back to suffer more. He's one of Dc's favorite punching bags and my dream is to see him happy, healthy and in therapy. Really hate how his own father won't avenge his death or let him do it himself, just fuck that clown already since you like him so much
3-) Wei Wuxian from Mdzs
Reason: I really do have a thing for red wearing, died but got better, on his second life but sluttier than ever characters. This boy deserves the world, he did do many morally reprehensible things in his time but it's all justified because i said so, he deserved his happy ending and my only complaint is that it didn't come sooner
2-) Shen Qingqiu from Scum Villain's self-saving system
Reason: This man is a whole ass clown, a walking contradiction, he's the reason why some people describe Scum Villain as a greek tragedy with clown music playing in the background. I've never seen someone so in-tune but detached from reality, bro doesn't even know his own emotions, on the inside he's a chronically online millenial on the outside he's the milfiest shizun in the Cang Qiong mountain sect and everyone knows it
1-) Kagome Higurashi from Inuyasha
Reason: This is my girl and i'll not take any criticism for it. She's a 15 years old middle schooler having to go back in time to fix a magical jewel to save japan and she's being so brave about it. She's an extremely kind person, does her best to see the good in everyone, even in people that attempted om her life before, she's a bit immature at times and has a temper but again, she's 15. She deserved better in general and because of that, and many more other reasons, that i fucking refuse to ever watch Yashahime, i just think it sucks she didn't even get to raise her daughter

Sorryyy, last ramblings - to your last point about tgcf's popularity: mdzs was thee most popular for a long time (wei wuxian was promoting the olympics at some point and lan wangji the forklift was building hospitals in wuhan when covid broke out) but recently tgcf has been gaining a LOT of traction online, especially with the donghua, while no new content is coming out for mdzs
Alsoooo, if u ever decide to read either of the others, i have epubs for svsss and would totally be down for a book club if u were into that. Meanwhile both live action untamed and the donghua mdzs are really good! Even if they start out a bit confusing. Svsss also has a donghua but its abandoned and initially people hate it (i dont but its an acquired taste lmao)
Ohhhhh okay i guess that explains it.... I was sure mdzs is still coming out in some form, whether it's comic or drama, but yeah if anything I'll probably stick to just novels 😁😁 I will definitely keep that in mind, could be exciting to read them together even if you're already familiar. Also, forklift.....??? 😭😭😭😭😭😭

get to know me better tag meme
@idrilka, thanks for tagging me ♡
rules: answer all the questions, then tag 9 people you want to get to know better!
three ships: SEONHWI (my country: the new age), wangxian (mdzs), aaand i cant remember anything else at the moment, even wangxian feels a bit cloudyXD harry/drako in adult post-canon-slice-of-life AUs was always my comfort ship though.
first ship: oooh boy let me tell you a storyXDD it’s kind of irl RPF BUT (long story ahead!) -
here it is: i was ~15, and i was in a school hiking club, and we went on a 2 weeks mountain hike in two squads - older kids (last year of school) and younglings (like me, second to last year of school), supervised by our geography teacher. It was an amazing experience, we were responsible for everything but trail navigating and pace. 
And in the older squad (those kids were like only a year older than us but the gap felt insurmountable, they were Wise Adults (TM)) there were two leaders, two best friends, one tall, handsome and like aristocratic (but pretty outgoing) and the other one an inch shorter, with longer hair, always laughing, and he had The Guitar (TM) and was not afraid to use it. All the girls were either infatuated with one or the otherXD
So, those two cute guys, always tousling, sharing a tent (with three more boys, ‘cause limited tent amount, tents are f* heavy), laughing, constantly bickering with lots and lots of innuendos, ‘cause you know, teenagers))
And one evening almost at the end of the hike we were sitting around the campfire, and The Laughing One with The Guitar was singing the most heartfelt song about a breakup , which coinsidentally had a name of his friend in it, while looking straight at said friend with laughter sparkling in his eyes,
and my little maiden heart went - OMG are they......... you know..................... ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ 
(mind you, i live in a very homophobic country and it was as bad then as it is now, i knew in theory abt possibility of same-sex relationships only because i was a curious child who liked to read too much for her own good and i’ve found an uncensored version of greek mythology in my mom’s books on the topmost shelf; but it was like historical and not applicable to modern society in my mind, so those two guys might’ve been pretty intense to even put a thought abt that possibility irl in my head))) 
* in retrospect, a lot of my fictional ships make so much sense nowXDD i’ve just imprinted on those two guys)))*
//and if we are talking fictional ships - the first one would be Abarai Renji/Kuchiki Byakuya (Bleach)))))
last song i listened to: Иду - Танцы Минус 
last movie i watched: /last movie i watched that left an impression, i def watched smth else after but can’t recall what was that/ - Triangle of sadness. Don’t go for arthouse usually, that genre can be too pretentious or too revolting for the sake of revolting but this one was good..
currently reading: i mostly read fanfiction these days; if we mean a novel - then Thousand autumns (it’s on pause, i’m too into my current obsession)))); reread some of shorter stories by Olga Gromyko last weekend, needed comforting)))
currently watching: psyching myself to rewatch MCTNA, planning do dive into WDH’s & Yang Se-jong’s filmographies; planning on watching A league of noblemen (gifsets on tumblr look intriguing);
currently consuming: nothingTT_TT food needs to be prepared asap
currently craving: roasted tofu from that one cafe my friend dragged me to last month*////*
tagging (not obligatory! ♡) @gorgeousgalatea, @dadwife, @opticor, @rej11, @soleil-tiara, @smallwinterchild, @turtlewobbles, @maureen2musings, @notenoughgatorade

Fics recs MDZS/The Untamed
inevitably, indubitably by friedkiki
Royalty AU lwj is a prince cursed to die on his twenty second birthday, wwx is a sorcerer determined to save his life and show him how to live. This fic was such a fantastic read I read it twice in a row
Introduction to Floating by cupofwater
Modern Cultivation AU lwj shows up at the hostel wwx is staying at infected by sex pollen. What is wwx supposed to do, NOT have sex with him??? Impossible. Really fun
planted in my mind by milkcrates
Modern AU with magic lwj and wwx go to the same magic school. Wwx is convinced he’s under a love curse because his heart clenches and he feels breathless whenever he sees lwj. An older fic I just discovered and such a lovely read
it was the fault of the lips by luckymarrow
Modern AU trans wwx and lwj become boyfriends and everything is perfect except lwj doesn’t know wwx is trans. Wwx gives a lot of blowjobs to avoid bringing it up. So sexy, and the family feelings with the Jiang siblings blew me away
When the Sky Settles and I'm Still Here by celerydragon
Post apocalyptic A/B/O omega wwx is trying to survive and maybe make his way to the sea when he runs into alpha lwj. For the good of humanity, he’ll need to sleep with lwj and repopulate the earth. No other reason
find me here again by quoth_the_ravenclaw
Modern AU wwx and lwj go to the club and have a sexy time. Maybe there’s a little roleplay in the bathroom. I fanned myself vigorously while reading
Make My Wish Come True by justpeace
WLW Modern with Cultivation AU wwx and lwj take a case on Christmas and must pretend to be married and share a bed for ~reasons~. This was super cute
an observer's guide to lovestruck cultivators by cafecliche
Canon-verse Mianmian’s husband observes wangxian. They’re in love anyone could see it. Also he loves his wife so much. Such a sweet little fic
wrote some things i didn't send by plonk
Modern AU lwj writes romance books and wwx is his editor. His most recent book has some very familiar characters in it. A really fun read!
I'm For You Now by phnelt
https://archiveofourown.org/works/36708862
Post canon wwx gets a little sick, lwj does not approve and lqr helps him make soup. So heartwarming and lovely, all the feels

20 questions writer meme.
tagged by @heyholmesletsgo THANK YOUUU
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
not counting things i'd rather remained anonymous, 21!
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
513,621 lol
3. What fandoms do you write for?
mdzs, vaguely tgcf, hotline miami (though mostly past tense) and we'll see about the future
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Wei Wuxian's Super Special Super Secret Book Club still reigns supreme with 1229 kudos, and will most likely be my legacy despite it being the second fic i ever wrote for the fandom (i think?)
If You're Reading This, It's Too Late with 513, one would think i'd still be messing around with this AU but i'm happy to leave it where it is and just keep messing around with the crackship
Dawn Chorus, my most precious baby, at 251 by some miracle despite being oc/canon. you guys spoiled me with the love for this one tbh. none of my other xue yang centric works got anywhere near this close and i'm at peace with that because he's bonking my oc in this one and they have a kid.
The Book Club Extras at 232, which is hilarious when compared to the original but at least new readers will see there's more and maybe in the year 2055 i will publish them for fun
Frozen Pond with 156 at the end of the list, written for my friend @petitjams and taking place in a silly AU we made together (wen chao stays winning on here which is very funny)
i'm attributing the popularity of the first two to mostly being centered around super popular characters, because my later stuff is naturally better yet struggling haha
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
always unless they're like just emoji, because i like conversation! though i may also reply with a little heart hehe
6. What is a fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
i wouldn't call it angstiest ending, it's bittersweet, but the threads that bind us is my top pick. and it also needs more readers so go read it. your hands and mine has a bit of an 'angsty' ending but only for song lan. xue yang had it coming :p 💖
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
excluding the two above, so far they all have a happy ending, or at least neutral??? i'd say Book Club, though, because that's the massive 'everybody lives!!' silly fixit fic
8. Do you get hate on fics?
nope. i hope i didn't just jinx it. i get hate on art and through anon though! woo! (not anymore on here tho thank god)
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
i do and i feel like it sucks so i almost always end up fading to black LMAO my actual explicit stuff remains private... it's like too embarrassing for me. i got judged for it as an 18 year old and 10 years later haven't gotten over it. i like bondage and bdsm though and that seems to crop up in private 😏
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
i do on occasion! i love roleplaying them, but the only one i have out there is The Way To His Heart Is Through His Stomach (Oh God Please Don't Eat Me), which mixes mdzs and tgcf characters in a unique setting :3
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
not to my knowledge, but i've had art stolen plenty so i wouldn't even be surprised
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
yes, a few have been translated into russian!
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
NOT YET BUT IT'S IN THE CARDS
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
all time? jeez. somebody tell me why i always freeze up and go blank when asked these simple questions? it's like i forget who the fuck i am. i feel like i should also say songxiao? but they're relatively new so it doesn't seem correct. fuck it. my all time favorite ship is [DATA MISSING OR CORRUPTED-- PLEASE PROCEED TO NEXT QUESTION]
15. What's a wip you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
haha... (looks at my abandoned hlm fic with the seventh chapter halfway written) haha...
16. What are your writing strengths?
i'd definitely say dialog. it makes sense, since the stuff i'm most used to doing is drawing silly comics. i also like to ping-pong emotions around and feel like i'm pretty good at that too
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
using the same words over and over and feeling like i never write Enough, like everything is always light and never in depth. i don't like making scenes too heavy with padding but i also feel like i need to find a balance
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
i'll do it only if it's a language i speak!!! this doesn't apply to peppering words like gege and stuff just for funsies. i think the best way to go about it is to just tell the audience what language they're speaking in that moment
19. First fandom you wrote for?
we're gonna have to go back to when i was 10 years old here lol... i think it was tokyo mew mew in terms of stuff i put online (oh god)
20. Favorite fic you've written?
it's hard to pick favorites, but i once again must say the threads that bind us in terms of work i'm most proud of.
i tag whoever sees it, plus @sugarapplebaby because ily
