Oh what a fun ask, can I ask 2Ha and Golden Stage for the ask game? Thanks.

Killing me with the double requests 😭 Alright, here we go!

2ha/Husky and His White Cat Shizun

Favorite Character: Mo Ran

Favorite Arc: 2ha is so huge, I kinda wanna mesh a lot of different events together, but if I had to choose one... Mo Ran on trial and the immediate aftermath

Character I Think is Underrated: honestly, there are just so many. Xue Zhengyong, the dad who stepped up, being known only for comedic relief; Madam Wang and all the bullshit she put up with only being seen as a mostly unspeaking extension of her husband, Ye Wangxi with her perseverance only coming attached to Nangong Si... just off the top of my head

Character I Think is Overrated: Shi Mei, because the care and attention that fandom should be paying to all the other cast is usually sucked up by him since fandom loves to pretend like a villain's sob story redeems them....

Favorite Ship/Pairing: Ranwan

Something I Love About the Book: I love a story that fucks with my perception of its reality, and the way 2ha continues to go in circles with character backstories, adding small new details with each retelling until you realize that it was actually a spiral and the things you thought you knew were all false flags? Sign me tf up!

Golden Stage/Golden Terrace

Favorite Character: Fu Shen (Very generic taste to like the MCs the best, I know!)

Favorite Arc: Yan Xiaohan's drugging, there's just something about the caretaker roles being switched and Yan Xiaohan having to deal with that vulnerability that gets me

Character I Think is Underrated: idk if the fandom underrates Du Leng, but I know the characters sure as fuck do!

Character I Think is Overrated: n/a because I'm not in the fandom enough to know who it obsesses with, and the only characters I really focus on, myself, are the main pairing

Favorite Ship/Pairing: the main couple, obviously!

Something I Love About the Book: I love characters who break convention by not taking shit from powerful figures because "fighting authority means you want to destroy society!" The fact that Fu Shen is like "fool me once" and immediately endeavors to turn on the emperor is peak storytelling. Also, the fact that the main couple already liked each other and just used the opportunity to become a power couple.

when ranwan were out there moon gazing while flying on the sword and mo ran confessed 'I love you' and 'you're very nice to me, you're beautiful to me' and the gentle reassurance that he's genuinely the most beautiful person in the world all the while holding hands and then the vulnerability of him asking not whether chu wanning loves him but 'will you like me?' like I've done unforgivable things, and I'm ignorant and stupid and it's 'will you like me?' is that on the table? and then the way chu wanning trembles at that and the way mo ran just knows that he does and yeah I'm not okay

#im sobbing #i love them so much #i cant wait to reread like i haven't even finished and i know ive got a storm up ahead but God #ranwan #2ha spoilers #husky and his white cat shizun

Omg, so I'm in both wenzhou and ranwan hell and I'm living for it. I was wondering if you could write more omega wkx? Just finished reading a fic where Chu Wanning died alone and in pain after having a miscarriage and wanted to feel even sadder by maybe having you write something similar but with wen kexing? I just love to see my favorite characters suffer. Anyways, I hope you're doing okay! Please stay healthy and safe - all of us will wait patiently for your gorgeous writing.

A/N: the Omega!WKX thirst is strong with y’all 😂 ok ok, jie jie will keep writing them for as long as you guys want to read them 🥰 thank you for the prompt!

TW: main character death, mpreg, mild description of child birth

—

As always, when it comes to pain, it was always that little bit more.

Sweat sticks Lao Wen’s hair to the back of his neck and there is a soreness in his throat that flares with every shuddering inhale and stuttering exhale. Here in the alcove of a long abandoned shrine to a long forgotten deity, he bleeds out onto the rattan mat, the blood stained knife he had used to bring his child into the world lays by his side. Close enough to use in case of danger.

Just a little bit more, Lao Wen thinks desperately and blinks slowly through the sticky wetness between his thighs. A waft of thick iron cloys in the room as he does.

Their little princess screams her displeasure into the world, wriggling in the poor swaddle of his clothes. She should have been born in their Manor, surrounded by the best care.

Straining his consciousness, Lao Wen strains his ears for any sound of his Alpha. Ah Xu was coming, he knows he is. Ah Xu would never leave them alone like this. Lao Wen had sent off a mechanical bird the moment his water broke, still a full day’s ride from the Four Season’s Manor. It really was his fault for insisting that he go alone to check out a remnant faction of Ghosts.

And now, through the fear, through the gnawing pain, through the slowly creeping darkness that prickles in the edges of his sight, he sobs.

Where was his Ah Xu? Tears begin to pool and mingle with the sweat dripping down his face. He promised he won’t ever leave him alone... If anything should happen to him, Ah Xu would blame himself for it.

Lao Wen reaches a weak hand to his baby’s cheek, wiping away the viscera, tracing her wrinkled brow and her lips as her strong lungs bellow her voice out into the world. He aches to calm her, to soothe her, but he can barely muster the strength to scent her, much less hold her.

Looking down, he sees that the blood pooling on the rattan mat was still fresh and spreading.

Right then, he thinks he hears Chengling calling out, “Shishu! Shishu!” Lao Wen swallows down the wave of numbness that threatens to overwhelm him and looks down to his baby.

With a last burst of strength, he calls out, “Here! I’m right here!”

Lao Wen heaves a croaking sob, blinking sluggishly through the creeping darkness. He can feel the cold pull of death tugging at him. Every breath is measured, every heart beat is weighed.

Distantly he hears footfalls and tries to muster the last dredges of his being to reach for the knife. But there is none left.

Like looking through the shifting light from under the water’s surface, he thinks he sees Ah Xu. He thinks he smells the cool, clean scent of his Alpha and hears his name being called in a desperate plea. He feels his body being moved into an embrace and closes his eyes.

In his arms, his baby quietens.

ok so 2ha. vague spoilers ahead (important spoilers are warned but watch out)

that’s a solid 4.5/5 for me. this novel RUINED me and I loved it for it. it made me feel like very few novels (and even stories in general) did. today I’m STILL shaken over a part of it that I read two days ago, despite the happy ending. I have A Lot of thoughts (shout-out to @whateverwuxian who can testify that I couldn’t shut up about it, love you buddy!!) so I just went ahead and [gestures below]

starting with the negative so we can enjoy all the positive later. feel free to discuss but I’m extra sensitive and these are only my personal feelings so they probably won’t change anyway, so be nice please!

what I didn't like:

too many r*pe scenes. I get that the non-con """makes sense""" narratively and thematically but like. they didn't have to be explicit. at the very least not all of them. sorry but too much is too much. there are more non-con sex scenes/flashbacks than consensual sex scenes! stop! we get it! enough now!

not a fan of a 26yo falling in love with a 16yo. if cwn had initiated Anything I would’ve thrown the novel out the window. but thankfully it didn’t happen, I got invested, and nothing mutual happened until mo ran was 22, so I mostly got over it, but I’m still somewhat uncomfortable with it for very personal reasons.

their first time putting it in. it felt so unfair and I was very upset over it. it could’ve worked without going There? why. was that necessary. and it's heartbreaking for both of them, because mo ran didn't want to do it either. he wanted them to take all their time. he wanted to go step by step. all he wanted was to make sure cwn would be happy and comfortable and never hurt again in bed. for their first time that way he wanted it to be special. but it was just. taken away from them, and for what? for nothing there’s absolutely no reason for it. I get there’s the metaphorical foreshadowing of the upcoming reveal aspect (spoilers) both of them not consenting, mo ran being horrified -> the reveal that mo ran was cursed and so would’ve never wanted to treat cwn like this in the past either if he’d had control (end spoilers) but still?? and it’s never brought up again? I know they don’t get the time until the very end but hhhh. yeah I have Feelings over this

some plot twists hit good emotionally but had no point? thinking of the one about xue meng here.

there’s horny, and then there’s mo ran. it’s not a bad thing, it’s just not the kind of stuff I like reading about and book 1 and 2 are A Lot on that side so in book 2 after a while ME, THE BIGGEST ASEXUAL WHO COULDN’T CARE LESS ABOUT SEX SCENES, WAS LIKE, “oh my god have mercy please just fuck already I beg of you” and indeed they chilled a bit after that. like they were still horny but. less intensely and less all the fucking time. thank god (I still think the farm arc was hilarious to witness though, and I did love it)

kinda wish their reunion at the end was longer and more emotional but that’s just because I love that shit

(spoilers) kinda wish we got to see shi mei again before he went off doing his blind wandering doctor stuff. a talk with ranwan would’ve been very interesting. (end spoilers)

xue meng didn’t get a hug

that one thing at the end you know the one. maybe I'd be more into it if it'd been given time to be explored seriously and wasn't played off as a joke. it kinda ruined the mood of their last scene for me. (spoilers spoilers spoilers this is the end of this section if you don’t want to get spoiled) in that scene I wanted chu wanning to ride off into the sunset with mo ran, not txj. like, txj is the alternate world’s “if there had been no transmigration” version of mo ran 2.0. the whole point is that mo ran IS txj in book 1, but changes and becomes mo ran 2.0. mo ran 2.0, who by the end of the novel has already done all the redemption and deconstruction of his dubious habits. who he was as txj is long behind him. at this point txj will always be a part of who he was, but they are pretty much two 'different' people now. txj disappearing into dust after everything that happens at the end was beautiful symbolism. it meant something. to me there was no point keeping txj around after all that other than for “haha split personalities fighting over cwn’s attention uwu” THAT SAID the fact I'm not a fan of the idea doesn't mean I don't like txj. I care txj a lot and have Emotions over him, and I will definitely eventually explore this in my writing

(still spoilers) the demonic blood reveal was a bit.... deus ex machina? plus I personally would've preferred mo ran staying a regular person (end spoilers)

alright what I liked now:

the themes, both regarding the characters and the various plot elements. this novel really challenges your morals and what you think is right or wrong, what’s redeemable, what’s punishable, and how much one relies on first impressions, amongst other things. this novel is the definition of “don’t judge a book by its cover” but also “look further than the first page” in so many ways

the romance. like I don’t need to say anything there. just, the slow burn, the longing, the yearning, the romance [clutches heart]

the plot twists/reveals. I’m so glad I was barely spoiled (I was spoiled two Big things but very vaguely so I was still surprised) because pretty much all of them had me shouting “WHAT” and/or gaping and/or various “what the fuck!!!”/”holy SHIT”/“NO” reactions

the way a lot of those reveals just completely change your view on things/characters?? that’s my jam

wontons. that was the first time I cried and my first very physical reaction to an event in this novel. I literally felt like time froze. I heard my heart beating. it was painful but AMAZING.

might be nothing in the grand scheme of things but honestly, all the food! I love that mo ran is an excellent cook and can make all those delicious dishes for cwn. as someone who loves to cook for their loved ones I think it’s so lovely that he gets to do that

the character growth. for everyone, but mo ran in particular? like I just. I started off not liking mo ran very much, straight up despising him at times, and in the end I was fucking sobbing over him and cried myself to sleep only to wake up in the middle of the night to cry some more so there’s that

chu wanning? there were aspects of him that I related to heavily, and that felt both like the Mortifying Ordeal of Being Known and very special because it doesn’t happen to me that often

the whole deaging arc. that was deaging done right and it had a purpose in the narrative and their relationship growth, I was “!!!!”

I LOVE how they took their time with EVERYTHING once they got together? that it spanned over several weeks? that it started with the confession, then just holding hands, then kissing, then making out, then sex, and even the sex was step by step! it said A LOT about mo ran’s character growth and it respected SO MUCH the fact that cwn is a 32yo (unrelated but (spoilers) I like to argue that yeah he’s been alive for 32 years but when you’ve been asleep and not aging physically nor growing mentally for five years in a way that makes you a 27yo. so when he calls his body “mature and old” and compares himself to shi mei I’m just. buddy your body is just three years older than shi mei’s there’s barely any difference in maturity right there. I know it’s your lack of self-worth speaking, and believe me I get it, but don’t be so hard on yourself. (end spoilers) anyway, this is an unimportant and unrelevant thought that I had during the mirror scene) who has no experience in any of these things whatsoever. he's not pushed into sex like he's going to be comfortable right off the bat and like it isn’t such a big change in a life that’s been ascetic so far. mo ran is aware of that! and when they have their first time mo ran, who’s been maybe even more horny than cwn all this time - seriously horny is that guy’s middle name, who initiated the sex, what does he say!!! "don't worry about me, tonight, I just want to make you feel good"??? mo ran?? your character development??? I appreciated that so much.

the pain. I’m still bleeding on the floor despite the happy ending but yeah. I like angst and I was not disappointed. it didn’t feel that gratuitious to me, more like, brutally honest? I don’t cry that easily but by the end I think I’d cried, what, close to ten times??

quite a few excellent quotes [lies down] “I realized - I had grown into the you in my heart”?? “hell is too cold”??? I highlighted more but those two are the ones that always come to my mind first

most of the time the flashbacks were perfectly inserted for maximum emotional damage and I respect that skill

xue zhengyong. like he’s not my favourite, my favourites are xue meng, nangong si and ye wangxi but? I just adored him so he gets a special mention

the side characters? like, I legit loved Everyone? when I cry over side characters you know it’s serious

THE CONFESSION SCENE. LIKE. HOLY SHIT MY HEART. it comes reaaally close to the vocal one (because hua cheng confesses so many times without words) at the end of tgcf for me. it was beautiful. I was so emotional. the fact that cwn can't say it no matter how much he feels it. like it's always been plain and clear just how much he loves mo ran. but he can't say the words yet and I just. the fact that mo ran gets it? that he doesn't need the words, just that squeeze of fingers, just what cwn is, at that moment, able to give him, and it doesn't mean less to him than words would? it hit home real hard

unless I think of something else, that’s about it! I can’t recommend 2ha enough, that said, I beg of you, heed the warnings. they are NOT overstated. and even if there were no warnings, take care anyways. the angst is serious, it haunts you. angst always makes me feel like my chest is being squeezed and that’s precisely the feeling I’m looking for when I choose to read angst. I have good tolerance to it, so despite not doing entirely well lately, I thought I was tough and went for it, but I’m a CLOWN. the way it’s written ruins you. this morning despite reading the hardest part of the angst on saturday evening, I still had some physical chest pain. so I recommend it with all my heart, but take care of yourselves. 2ha doesn’t fuck around.

#2ha #bee talks #i will probably tweak and add to this post over time because I probably forgot stuff #anyways I'm gonna go lie down and cry over ranwan as I think about my fic ideas #2ha review
