Friday Update
(a lot) From Twitter:
Someone unintentionally made an illustration for Ghost Story! (thank younaye , for retweeting it)
Shen Wei fumbling with Zhao Yunlan's belt/fly in this piece of fanart is breaking me.
There is mention of this manip in a fanvid and I want to know where is the fmv please?
Just when you think you're going to expire from Bai Yu's face...his tongue makes an appearance.
Zhu Yilong's traps, delts, and lats clearly visible through his white shirt jesus take the wheel.
And this I actually found on FB through a google search for supercut of Zhu Yilong spitting blood. #NoRegrets #NoShame
and actually not Guardian related!
If you haven't seen the Degas-style studies of Tom Holland's lip sync battle, you really should.
Found a Tumblr with detailed, spoiler-heavy re-watch posts for The Untamed. They're currently at episode eight (posted on November 4).
I did a poor job of tracking most of my Guardian bingo squares and I feel like an asshole about that because I've gotten so many good links from people posting what they did. Apologies for not returning the favor. Mea culpa. In my defense, it was track those or make better progress on Ghost Story and Ghost Story won. But I figure I should at least note what I did to fulfill the Hallows squares:
Longevity Dial: Tonight I'm watching the final two episodes with someone in meatspace I'd talked into watching the show and nursing her through the trauma.
Mountain-River Awl: By sheer luck, I discovered I hadn't left a comment onxparrot 's gorgeously angsty Now Lie in It (which, god, the title alone is heartbreakingly perfect) so I rectified that.
Merit Brush: I'm counting all my links to Twitter posts for this.
Guardian Lantern: Still to go. I won't be posting a fanwork before the deadline (sob!), but I'll work on a love letter this weekend. I would like to recognizemekare, though, as being the reason I'm here. Thanks, bb! Your artwork and screencaps/gifs brought me to the party and I'm so grateful.
Things are Physically Not Great which bleeds right into depression for me. Amazing how an inability to move bums me out! Haven't made it back to the gym since Tuesday's crash. It's difficult enough getting up the (one) flight of stairs in my house. That's a solid indication of a fatigue flare-up even though my brain is (mostly) staying online. I danced around the living room to a couple songs yesterday afternoon, just to do something and it felt so good. But last night's sleep was fractured and I woke exhausted--indicative of high cortisol levels which means I gotta take it real easy today or risk putting myself in a hole for several days in a row.
I hate this.
At least I have Ghost Story and the internet!

Oh, very nice.
Just when you think you're going to expire from Bai Yu's face...his tongue makes an appearance.
Awwww!
Zhu Yilong's traps, delts, and lats clearly visible through his white shirt jesus take the wheel.
Yes. Just yes.
(Not very eloquent today, but these were all things that needed saying!)

*hugs* I hope you have an energy/feeling-improved upswing soon. Damn it, bodies. :/

Thank you for the well-wishes. STUPID BODIES.

Ugh, I couldn't watch that video for even 30 seconds. (I'm the kind of person who really can't bare to see her favs being tormented. Even all the Guardian fanvids I like are cutesy happy ones or BAMF ones. In that case, why did I like the ending? I guess cos I thought it was plenty BAMF in its way - a true heroes' death!)
That unintentional Ghost Story illustration is really nice!
Really sorry to hear about your health acting up! *Sends encouraging vibes*

IDK but they deserve a medal.
Thank you for the well-wishes. My body is ready for gene therapy treatments (or Dixing healing, y'know, Not Picky) any day now.
I love the unintentional illustration so much. I'd buy a print of it, for real. I keep going back to look at it and thinking about contacting the artist to see if they sell prints (and read English).

Sorry to hear things are not physically great! So do tai chi Commencement 9 times (it has to be an odd number) and get your head into your chi.
xxoo!
no subject
Well dang, Commencement isn't in the style I learned. If only you were here to lead me!

Feet shoulder-width apart, arms by your sides. Inhale/exhale while looking at the wall (not your feet). Drop elbows, raising arms up to shoulder height; arms should be at 70% of full extension. Lower back to side. Remember to leave a little space under your armpits; don't press your upper arms against your body.
To add lower body: qua squat as you raise your arms, with leg and arm bendiness feeling commensurate. Press through your feet as your lower your arms to your sides.
Therefore: DROP ELBOWS as you sink. PUSH FEET as you lift.
To add chi/qi: pull some into your hands (rolling balls by your side, or gently rubbing hands together). Focus on the feeling in your palms as your arms lower and lift.
I can read this for you in a soothing voice if you need it...
