We're all terrible
Sep. 16th, 2019 07:18 amWow, Chinese sure is a fascinating language. The more I learn about it, the more I'm 1) impressed (at both the language and the people who learn it) and 2) completely uninterested in learning it myself this lifetime. My poor little brain. It boggles.

jo_lasalle 's post yesterday my headcanon for the Dixing King curse thing: My personal headcanon is this only happened after the Guardian lantern went out (which is why it seems to come as a shock to Shen Wei?). Dixing needs some sort of sacrifice to stay functioning at even a bare existence level. Pretty sure this was influenced by my love of fairyland lore because that's 100% some tiend-to-hell shit and I am always here for fairy rules. I'm gonna be sort-of addressing it in a hand-wavey fashion in the Canadian Shack fic but I'm not letting myself think about it too much. I am not sinking myself into two WIPs, especially two that don't share a POV character. I know my brain's limits, and that way lies madness.
In a different exchange,naye coined the phrase "Consensually Attacked." It so accurately describe the (ice) knives this fandom hands each other so we can then stab our own selves in the heart. Repeatedly. I wonder if the reason I fell so easily into this fandom is we're all a bunch of emotional sadomasochists. As I commented in naye 's post:
Oh fandom. <3
