Head canon that in a modern AU Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng are roommates. One time Wei Wuxian left his laundry in the dryer and Jiang Cheng needed to use it. He knocked on Wei Wuxian's door to tell him to get his shit but Wei Wuxian was half asleep and just yelled no before going back to bed. Jiang Cheng proceeded to take all of Wei Wuxian's clothes out of the dryer and staple them all to trees outside because he is exactly that petty and Wei Wuxian couldn't decide whether he should be mad about it or find it hilarious. Either way he didn't leave his clothes in the dryer anymore when Jiang Cheng told him to clear it out so he could use it.

Most annoying NMJ or JC take is when someone that dislikes them is like "oh you're a fan of him? *scoff* Well obviously you've only seen cql, where he was super watered down. In the novel he's a dislikable asshole and that's the objectively superior canon I'm working from instead of your woobified fanfic." Meanwhile your main canon is novel canon and you genuinely find novel Jiang Cheng and Nie Mingjue complex sympathetic characters.

#complaining and whining about fandom #mdzs #cql #the untamed #nie mingjue #jiang cheng #WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING TO THEM #it's quite funny because in nmj's case i actually see shit from cql being carried over to novel canon to hate on him #for example my's treatment under the nie was explicitly much worse in cql because they transplanted the langya captain to qinghe #while the worst we see post-promotion in the novel is cultivators (WHO AREN'T EVEN NIE!) wiping ther teacups #(they're visiting from other clans like xichen. That's also why none of them had seen meng yao before.) #you can absolutely choose to interpret that worse things were happening to him at the hands of the nie off-page #it's definitely possible! but cql has people acting like it's objective canon #also the thing about empathy being inaccurate and biased in nmj's favor #that's another cql thing. in novel canon wwx can and does see things nmj does not notice (like the teacups!) #so even if he has some insight into nmj's thoughts and feelings it quite literally can't be showing things exclusively from his perspective #it was a pretty cool ceative decision from cql! gave us some very interesting character moments! #but sometimes i see people discuss the novel going 'and this was warped by nmj's bias i bet he was even worse in reality' girl wrong medium #in jiang cheng's case a lot of hate seems to be coming from the corner of cql!mains too #so clearly it can't be *that* big a difference in likability

i think one of the reasons why wangxian's love is so powerful and strong is because wei wuxian is a romantic at heart but believes he isn't deserving of love and lan wangji is also a romantic but believes he doesn't love enough so when you put them together you get this sappy romantic and unconditional love because they are each other's safe spaces. they are helping each other heal and they are unlearning their trauma together.

#i was too angsty lately so i decided to post a bittersweet fluffly/angst post to make up for it #i will be back on my angsty shit soon though sorry folks </3 #i will be that bitch who reminds you of the angst <3 #you're welcome :3 #lan wangji #mo dao zu shi #mdzs #cql #the untamed #lan zhan #wei wuxian #wei ying #wangxian #starrywangxian

I don't know why people are so fucking attached to that rumor of jc hunting down the other demonic cultivators for all those years after wwx died.

the novel to begin with teaches you not to go around believing people's rumors so easily, and secondly... why do they consider it a bad thing? do I have to remind you that demonic cultivation was GENUINELY a terrible thing? it destroyed the cultivator's soul and mind (literally destroyed wwx slowly), it was a dangerous weapon, and it was super disrespectful to the dead (which, by the way, is serious business in China).

I feel like... people defend this because it was an important part of wei wuxian's character, but they fail to see one important detail:

the fact that wwx used it with intentions of doing good things means NOTHING, much less it should be a sufficient factor to assume everyone else who tries it will be the same. especially since people who started to idolize the patriarch were following the bad rumors about him, and hello!? not one of those rumors were positive! everyone had the dumb idea that wwx was a terrible monster!

why would you come to the conclusion that the following demonic cultivators are not just bad people believing the false rumors that wwx was a heartless monster? those people wanted to be a new big scary patriarch, they didn't care about wei wuxian as a person at all.

so, in what way is it bad that there's someone preventing some idiots from going and trying to do evil shit against the clans using such a dangerous and unstable method?

#mdzs #mo dao zu shi #jiang cheng #this is in response to a comment that was made to me in another post #bc yes of course jc is terrible for putting a dog in front of wwx #but this?? #nah i don't think so #demonic cultivation #the untamed #all characters in mdzs did some shit but get rid of demonic cultivators wasn't THAT bad #IF that rumor is true at all of course

Okay I'm finally reading Untameable (got a choice pass + the 12 days of christmas thing) and oh my god??? I fucking love it so much. I fucking love cowboy romances and the fact that it's so goddamn gay???? i mean i know it's just cause i have a m!mc and a m!kit and pb refuses to show their lis and being interested in a sex other than mc's but still. it is very gay. and very cowboy. and i love gay cowboy romances. i'm having the time of my fucking life reading this book.

#also if you want to talk shit about untameable that's totally fine #just don't do it on this post #untameable #playchoices #pixelberry

Summary:

Seeking answers, and a chance to undo his mistakes, to see both Nie Minjuge and Jin Guangyao again, Lan Xichen turns to the shelves holding Wei Wuxian’s notes, and the array that can give it to him. - “Whatever it is, it’s changed you,” Nie Mingjue says. “Sometimes it feels like you’ve turned into a ghost possessing yourself.”

It is what Lan Xichen has become, even before using the array. He did not die with Jin Guangyao, physically. But he had still turned into a ghost of himself, the melancholy that had swallowed him and the haze of unreality he lost himself in, haunted by the past. Using the array, tearing his souls apart into whatever had made the journey, had simply completed the process, made him truly possess himself.

“Xichen,” Nie Mingjue says, tone completely different, a horror in the silence around the way he says Lan Xichen’s name.

-

Or; A Lan Xichen centric time travel fic where it’s hard to heal from the past while living in it.

(Part of a series but stands on its own.)

CHAPTER 18 IS UP! Also I updated the summary a bit.

modern au transfem jin ling my beloved. jiang cheng who is at a loss when it comes to raising a girl. he finds himself referring to his memories jiang yanli when she was a child and it hurts so much. jiang cheng who has never given much thought to the gender binary but now wishes he could fight it and punch it with his fists because that would be easier and make his niece happy. jiang cheng helping jin ling with her hair... they both look at her in the mirror and she looks so much like her mother that jiang cheng tears up. they go shopping. they both hate it. meng yao has to help with that part. he’s soft spoken and effective. if jin ling wants to officially come out, he’ll arrange for it. he’ll handle the paperwork. talk to her school. talk to her doctor. somehow it works out. and in the end, jin ling is happier.

#this is incoherent this makes no sense i just have feelings abt trans aus and hcs and shit #jin ling is soooo trans i dont make the rules #transmasc transfem nonbinary the WORKS #whether he's being raised by his uncles or by his parents. god knows jin zixuan tryign to parent a trans child is. hilarious. #this post is probably cringe but u guys get to have it #jin ling #jiang cheng #meng yao #jin guangyao #i write meng yao for modern aus bc like. something something changing his name would be more of a hassle without the concept of courtesy #names something something #idk #mdzs #cql #the untamed #PLEASE talk to me about this au i want to discuss have fun #clem's corner

...why is he there, though?

How did Xiao Xingchen come so quickly? 

There are a few things to consider in this fight. One is that Song Lan can’t have ambushed Xue Yang anywhere near the yizhuang (nor other people, for that matter), otherwise their shouting and clashing of swords would have attracted XXC’s attention way earlier. Another is that, since we have dialogue to “measure up” time, not a long time passes from the corpse poisoning to him arriving at the scene. The only moment when this could have been dragged out is when Song Lan lashes out after having his tongue cut, but I think this last bit of the fight can’t last very long, with the state he was in. 

Therefore, how did Xiao Xingchen get to that relatively remote location in such a short amount of time? We-ell, consider this possibility: he didn’t come because he detected a walking corpse...

...he came because he detected Jiangzai. 

Not that he’d know it, he doesn’t have laser-focus detection powers like that. He just sensed something was amiss at the very beginning of the fight, but could only follow in the general direction until he was close enough (in time and location) for the poisoning to begin and the “fierce corpse” to be easily detectable. But do you remember what he said afterwards?

(How did Xue Yang manage to refrain from making a blind joke here is beyond me, btw)

But there it is! Shuanghua behaved strangely. It may have detected Jiangzai’s resentful energy, but by the time he got there, there was a target much more relevant that masked the presence of Xue Yang’s sword. And if you’re wondering how did he never detect his sword before in the years they were together, I’d argue that Xue Yang was wise enough not to swing his sword around daozhang too obviously, or getting hold of another blade for when they night hunted, or even just get by using talismans. He managed to hide so much more from him, his sword is just one more piece in this puzzle. 

BY THE WAY, going by novel/manhua standards here. I don’t know what they were thinking in the cql drama, beyond making the most of each set, but to have them fighting right in front of their house is beyond stupid. Daozhang literally jumped out the door to meet them. He was probably listening to heavy metal throughout the fight -_-

i just blocked someone for saying that my school president was a thai h*artstopper, gonna be very honest with you, i love both shows, but asian media particularly bl needs to borrow or be connected in any form to white western media exactly zero nada nothing, the traditions it follows are its own, and people really need to stop drawing empty comparisons between pieces of media just because there are lgbt characters, msp doesn't even have trans characters, nor a bullying plot, neither is sexual discovery a plot either, like if we're going for particular elements that might tie them together, the high school setting is all, plenty of media nowadays has high schools with gay teenagers, that's all, like this need to connect the few more often than not overtly white lgbt mainstream pieces yall have watched to media from non white countries because of two superficial similarities needs to stop, please, bls have their own tradition, started way back with yaoi, and that has more ties to the straight (japanese) romance genre than things like heartst*pper, love the connection but it's not real, and tbh its starting to feel racist to want to equate any of these thai pieces that usually speak to other bls and its own history, like please msp has been taking more cues from bad buddy than anything else like pleaaaaase, respect the craft and its origin for what it is

#my school president #lakorn posts #like absolutebl could write you a history that might shed true light on western influences in bl and thus connection #but h*artstopper is far-off the mark and it just feels racist that i keep seeing people try ti compare the making or the stories out of #sheer superficiality please write exactly what yoh mean before drawing senseless comparisons #and like i might be overreacting #but it's like the nth time this week i see some shit trying to draw empty comparisons #it's partícularly jarring with things like kp or the untamed or guardian or jbl like dude they do not look to the west #for inspo or connection or conversation #why would they #it's just not how it works #and it's like so condescending to think that they would look at western media for any sort of affirmation #when the west is as racist as it is
