Guardian/adjacent:
A shipping manifesto for Zhang Qiling/Wu Xie.
Bai Yu being so cute I want to pinch his cheeks and also bang him like a screen door in a hurricane.
Zhu Yilong's laugh.
Love these gifs that tell an entire story.
That weird White People Smile looks different on them.
Weilan staring into each other's eyes (something I've never noticed before is how hopeful and eager Shen Wei looks in that first look 😭)
Fanart: lonely bb!SW.

It's hilarious and delightful watching my DW reading page devolve into All Lost Tomb All The Time. Love seeing people so excited! I'm avoiding the conversations for now, but will hit y'all up for spoilers when the show wraps up.

Yesterday I came to the conclusion that I need to add a lot more to Deconstruction's denouement. Like, maybe a whole extra chapter. Which adds at least a week to my writing time. So if I want to finish this thing by the end of the month like planned.... *cracks knuckles*

Ooooof. I just finished revising the Big Climactic Scene and am taking a bit of a breather (and getting another cup of tea) before diving into the fallout from it. *whew*

Eeeee! Yay! *^^*

*sprinkles you with writing magic*

[clevermanka]

It worked! I got over 1k words on Deconstruction and close to 700 on a new, short piece!

[wrote_and_writ]

Hooooooraaaaaaaay!

Bai Yu is cute and very bangable for sure. Zhu Yilong is cuter and ... well, same. :D

I've only just read up to July 17th, so I guess that is still coming up, then. :D

I can't blame anyone, we've been waiting SO LONG for a new Zhu Yilong show, and this one looks to be actually *good* - well, family popcorn fare, but it is good at what it wants to be, so there.

[clevermanka]

"Good at what it wants to be" is a standard I wish more people would recognize!

Are you planning on experiencing the show through gifs eventually, or actually watching it? How much should I protect you from spoilers??

[clevermanka]

Unless it suddenly goes sideways or has a horrible/cliffhanger ending, I'll probably watch it. It looks 100% up my alley.

I am counting on everyone to spoil me thoroughly, please. Please.

I have been enquiring and apparently the Reboot novels are unfinished so nobody knows how they will end and I am SCARED.

And they're definitely going to let season 1 end on a cliffhanger aren't they. ;_;

I am counting on everyone to spoil me thoroughly, please. Please.
Whee, good to know my gifs are coming to good use!

[clevermanka]

I didn't know the novels weren't finished. Ugh. Yeah, with that in mind I'd say there's a 99.999% chance of cliffhanger ending. Hm. That does affect my interest in watching, but I'm certainly not going to complain about the gifts of gifs!

Apparently the original series (but not the spinoff) are finished, but they're "Reboot" because the author started revising/rewriting them and that set of books is not finished. The author was involved in the script writing and the franchise is very popular so I'm hoping they won't kill anyone off? (From promos I am hoping that it will roll around to HEA but I really don't know...)
