I know all the consequences, I don't mind

Guardian/adjacent:
Watch me end this man's whole career with nothing but a lollipop and a suggestive look.
Just an exhausted Shen Wei removing his glasses in the rain nbd.
The way they look at each other.
That costume is certainly clingy in nice places.

Lost Tomb bts photos with no moustache, horrible hair, or, uh, package straps.
Fanart: Zhubai chibis. 🔪🔪🔪. Art Train! Forehead kiss with bonus chibi.

I'm obsessed with this song right now.

Watch on YouTube

I feel this is a very Zhao Yunlan song.

Speaking of Zhao Yunlan, I'm getting a few comments on Fit to be Tied about (non-spoiler) my use of post-serum Zhao Yunlan's strength. Surely I'm not the first (English-writing) fic writer in Guardian to use that?

And for the record, on this July 4, let me state my (correct) opinion that America was never great.

I love that in the TV show end credits, they show staff swooping in to wrap Zhu Yilong in blankets and give him tea. It is what he deserves, always, especially because that silly man is prone to going to extreme measures for acting.

[clevermanka]

Yessssssss I love that, too. TAKE CARE OF OUR LONG-GE HE IS PRESH.

Mmmmmm, clinging to them shoulders and that butt!

"Package straps" 😂

Bai Yu's got the day off tomorrow and is celebrating with being "not drunk" and dropping in on fan's group chats to say hi sand sing and that gives me much joy. Twitter thread.

NEVER OVER PACKAGE STRAPS OH MY GOD

What a charming celebrity, can you imagine being one of the people in that chat? I'm so happy for them!

The way they look at each other.
I feel like a tinhatter person, but...I mean...I can't even imagine what Zhu Yilong's "I'm in love with this person" face could be if that's not it.

(I enjoyed the corset fic, by the way; I'm idiotically shy about commenting on explicit fic for some reason...)

I can't even imagine what Zhu Yilong's "I'm in love with this person" face could be if that's not it.
Seriously. I've had long-term romantic relationships with people who never looked at me that adoringly.

And thank you! I'm glad you liked the fic!

The way they look at each other omg. Z1L is so smitten. <3

I also suspect that Lost Tomb Reboot isn't too far off anymore. Let's hope.

*HUGS* I like the hopeful Langston Hughes poem, though:

Come on, Lost Tomb! Arrive and Don't Suck! 🤞

It always makes me happy when people send me Langston Hughes poems. He was from the town where I live!
