until now my brain has insisted on keeping the wip neat and proper, however i was VERY tired and just wanted to roughly outline what’s happening and
#yeah uh. uh. about that. #(jgy is Aware. and he's being a bit unfair here but also uh it. it works so) #as i said the amount of serious thinking and planning wrt: this fic is firmly somewhere around zero. i am purely vibing #okay the amount of planning wrt my fics has ALWAYS been zero. nonetheless #writing woes
in today’s episode of postcorpsening: the wip, jin guangyao thinks about piss
#and -- to his consternation -- realizes his troubling lack of knowledge. #this is nothing i just wanted to say that i'm writing #DID I KNOW MORE ABOUT PISS BEFORE I DIED?? FUCK #so this... chapter? one-shot in a yet nonexistent series? this Whatever It Is is vastly stupider than the previous one! #luckily it is half past 2am i do Not gaf #writing woes
#the frog is absolutely a plus! #and i don't think young yunmeng boys have ever talked about shoving sword hilts up one's ass #but this? sounds very like something wwx would say. IMAGINE THAT. #nsft#the untamed #it's wonderful that the girls have the most fuckable swords. ok and jzx
hehe... yesterday i managed to read like 1.75 pages, today: five!!! it’s... not many at all but each page has me make one and a half page of new vocab, so... but god it’s so fucking fun
[ID: four pictures of blue ink wash paintings of neocaridina shrimp from my shrimp tank. The first page has gestural and minimalistic studies of swimming shrimp inspired by Qi Baishi's shrimp art. The other three are more detailed studies of single shrimp standing still. The last one is of a shrimp carrying eggs, rendered in scratchy blue biro with a splashy ink wash overlaid. End ID]
this is rather funny considering one of my last posts but i just can’t NOT find jgy’s revenge fucking... amazing. iconic. wonderful in its cruelty. before or after, never in his life jgy has done something like this. dude must be soaked to the bone in hatred juice. angered silly. jgy did it like this because if he got a good sharp stone and just bashed it against his father’s skull until there wasn’t much left it STILL wouldn’t be enough. s o a k e d like a poached pear in red wine. and yet he laughs!! sarcastically asks if his father is enjoying his gift!!! and as we find out in villainous friends jgy probably comes up with this plan on the spot, since he asks xy to take a nice short trip to yunmeng and tidy up a place for him. most likely it took him a couple of days max, since a-yao is pure efficiency. delight. delight
#the personifications of jgy killing jgs and wwx killing wc/wlj are kissing with tongue i think #after a while xue yang (personification of no one. just a-yang) joins them #honestly many faces of violence (esp sexual violence) would be a fine material for an Academic Paper. i'd read it so hard #liveshrimping
overwhelmed by the comedy of Dracula learning to cook & perform light housekeeping in order to convince His Good Friend Jonathan that there are invisible servant lurking in the background. And then it turns out Dracula is an excellent cook! to the point Jonathan remarks upon it in his diary!
How did this happen! Where did Dracula learn Home Economics???
i noticed this very weird thing. namely that if you spend all your time reading one book, the time for other things runs out? what the fuck? anyone else has experienced that???
#NGHF. I HAVE OTHER THINGS 2 DO!!! #shut up shrimp #(not yesterday not today and most likely not tomorrow lol)
it’s interesting that it’s been specifically said that both meng shi and sisi used to be very popular and in-demand in their job. meng shi’s client was jin guangshan himself, sisi had found herself a rich merchant and there was even talk of taking her as a wife. even mo xuanyu’s mother (although her position wasn’t comparable to two sex workers), while not as favoured by her family as the future madam mo, had been jin guangshan’s beloved lover, lavished with gifts.
and then they’ve lost their popularity, and people weren’t tolerating their fancy-schmancy “education”, who does she think she is. and then they got their faces carved by a lawful wife, to show that whore where her place is, try to find clients now, ha. and then the rich guy left them with a kid, because of course, what else was she expecting, stupid girl.
and sisi, i don’t think she had any exciting prospects for the future now, and she knew it, but meng shi and second lady mo? they had hope, they waited patiently, they believed that life would reward them for their suffering, reward them for their hard work raising their children to be good men, future great cultivators.
and then life said “lmfao! L + ratio + die in a figurative ditch, all hopes broken, detested by everyone you know”
it’s aaaaaalmost like life just sucks when you’re not powerful and influential. it’s allllllmost like people don’t give a shit about “hard work” and “sincerity” and “good intentions”, if you’re a stupid woman then you’re a stupid woman, if you’re a whore then you’re a whore! you don’t matter, no one cares what happens to you (and also you’re dirty and probably carry seventeed different diseases, ew, eugh). and the same goes for your possible children and people stupid enough to associate with you. you could read and write in ten languages, sing, play the pipa upside down with your eyelashes and a xiao with your ass, both at the same time, you could find a way to turn rocks to gold but you’d still, always, be pathetic and dirty.
but you should appreciate what you have, and not strive for more. when people offer you kindness, trust in them and don’t demand safety, because rich influential men are known for their steadfastness. just sit the fuck down and don’t even think about having “ambitions”, and if anyone insults you, don’t even think about being mad at them or retaliating :-)
#sorry to make it about Men in the end but sisi introducing herself like this just Moved Something In Me #liveshrimping#of sorts
oh my god i have no idea how i didn’t notice this before but aside from using polite language, jiang cheng uses... a humble personal pronoun 私め (watakushime)...
new favourite word: 粗相 (sosou). just LOOK at it. what the hell. it means “carelessness, careless mistake, blunder”. or “to wet/soil oneself”. to avoid that, the jiang disciple led sisi and bicao to a guest residence.
i know the fandom’s idea of jgy is like... 0% based in how jgy really is and 100% based in what people think would be funny, but WHERE did jgy being weird about lxc come from? as in, being jealous when other people dare to talk to him, or acting soooo smug that he snatched the #1 bachelor. like where did it all come from
#he's genuinely happy (the happiest and most relaxed that we see him) when he's around lxc. he didn't tell him the whole truth because he was #that scared of losing him! because lxc's affection was so important to him and he couldn't bear the thought of being hated by lxc #so WHERE did smug bitchy birl parading around her rich boyfriend and her boyfriend's riches come FROM #why is fandom jgy like ooo i don't deserve his goodness! i'm so bad! i'm so horrible! i don't deserve love! i'm going to make lxc jump #through 17 hoops that are on fire before finally opening my heart up to him BUT JUST A LITTLE. #i understand editing some parts of a character for fanworks because fanworks are primarily just For Fun but sometimes. there's too much fun #is it because wgxn-centered fans didn't care too much about properly preserving jgy's characterization and that's how it spread? #puzzled. #shut up shrimp #ok back to the novel. hoping to read more than 2 pages today lol
