how would wwx react if, during one of his and lwj's travels, he heard rumors in the marketplace that omg did you hear sandu shengshou got married??

maybe the rumors about this spouse differ per region. in one city he married the most beautiful woman ever seen, in another he's having a scandalous affair with her brother and in yet another his alleged wife is actually a good digger, or after mysterious cultivation secrets, or a spy for the emperor.

(is he even married? who knows, and certainly not wwx!)

I don’t know what Wangxian are doing or why, but the second Wei Wuxian hears this rumor, it’s head empty, no thoughts but WHAT KIND OF CONNIVING SCHEMER HAS HER HOOKS IN JIANG CHENG? Everyone knows Jiang Cheng is too unpleasant for a woman to actually like him! This purported wife can’t be up to any good!

With every new version of the rumor, WWX’s internal mental string board is becoming more and more elaborately yarn-crossed. He’s staying up late after sex to scribble down contingency plans for dealing with a crane wife, a ghost wife, a demon wife, a femme male prostitute (“I don’t think Jiang Cheng has ever seen a woman without her clothes on, Lan Zhan, he might not be able to tell!”), a sexy assassin from the Emperor’s Court (“I’ll be honest, Lan Zhan, I thought the Emperor’s Court was just made-up, but I guess it’s real after all?”), and—just to cover all his bases—a Heavenly Immortal undergoing one mortal life as a trial so that she may know true suffering and grief when her mortal husband betrays her, or her children all die from the plague or something. (“Being married to Jiang Cheng would constitute a trial all by itself, right, Lan Zhan?” WWX says to a dead-asleep Lan Wangji who stopped finding this remotely funny two weeks ago.)

But when they finally make it back to Yunmeng to investigate, Wei Wuxian doesn’t even have time to investigate before some Jiang disciple recognizes him and bodily hauls him to Lotus Pier and plops him in front of a stressed out Jiang Cheng, who is so relieved to see him.

Jiang Cheng: Wei Wuxian? Wei Wuxian? Oh thank god, DO YOU REMEMBER THE INVOCATION OF THE SHELLED ANCESTORS? I’ve been asking around on this one, but no one knows it.

Because what’s actually happening is that it’s time to visit a shrine upriver and pay thanks to a supposedly 3000-year old turtle that blesses the Yunmeng Jiang sect. But the Jiang only do this once every fifty years and all the records got trashed during the Wen occupation and yes Jiang Fengmian tried to teach Jiang Cheng this, but he was four years old at the time and all Jiang Cheng remembers is that “the turtle in her shell is like a shy maiden under her wedding veil”, and we have to say something SPECIAL to lure her out and feed her this sacred lettuce I’ve been growing in my personal garden for seven months, Wei Wuxian! Wei Wuxian! What the fuck am I supposed to say to the sacred turtle!!!

Wei Wuxian: …..uh. um. yeah! I know this one! You have to tell her she’s prettier than her sister

Phantom Blood Liveblog JJBA ch.12-17

Last time... hoo-boy. Uh... where to start?

So Dio's murder-for-inheritance scheme backfired spectacularly, to the point where his only remaining option to stay out of jail was to use the Stone Mask to turn himself into a vampire. But the mask needs blood to work, so Dio tried to stab Jonathan to get some, only he wound up stabbing George instead. Oh, and he stabbed George in the back, which is... appropriate.

As Jonathan tends to his father, everyone else in the room thinks Dio is dead, since the police shot him like a dozen times. The inspector blames himself for all of this, because he knew the Brandos were no good all along. Years ago, the Joestars were in a carriage wreck, and Dario tried to rob the corpses, except George was still alive, so he assumed Dario had come to rescue them. Some time later, the Inspector arrested Dario and found Mrs. Joestar's wedding ring on his person, and was able to trace it back to its original owner. But when he brought George down to the station to confirm the crime, George claimed that he gave the ring to Dario, and even returned it to him. The inspector was furious at George's naivete, and he regrets not doing more about it at the time.

So in spite of everything, George knew that Dario had stolen from him, and not only forgave him, but adopted Dio anyway. And Dio repaid George's kindness with blood.

As he dies, George tries to account for his harshness towards Jonathan, and says it must have seemed so unfair, but he argues that Dio had a lousy upbringing, so that must have seemed unfair to Dio, and he was just trying to do right by both boys. Then he finally dies and Jonathan... turns Super Saiyan? Wrong comic.

But Dio's not dead, and the Inspector has no time to regret the past, because Dio scoops his cranium clean off of his neck. Siiiiick!

Can I get a WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?

Dio makes quick work of the other cops. "Even Speedwagon is afraid!" has become a classic meme, but when you see what he's screaming about, who can blame him? What has been tragically overlooked on this page, however, is the silly red bow on Jonathan's outfit.

Man, Part 1 is so boring, guys. You should just skip this part and go straight to Part 4, where a kid plays rock-paper-scissors with some douchey comic artist.

But Dio's just getting warmed up, and he reanimates one of the dead cops he just finished murdering. The layout here suggests that Dio has some ray he shoots at the corpse that turns it into a zombie, so I guess that's how this works, then. Fortunately Jonathan clobbers it with a big iron spear and saves Speedwagon.

Oh, I should mention that Speedwagon was injured when Dio flung one of the police corpses at some of the other cops. A severed arm hit Speedwagon so hard that it broke his own arm, which is why he can't do a whole lot in this battle.

Jonathan can't do much either. He's resolved to destroy Dio since he's no longer human, and he reasons that destroying Dio's brain will work, since the Stone Mask turned him into this creature by altering his brain in some way. But his strategy of "stab him with a big spear" doesn't work. Dio's too strong and his body heals too quickly for any human to defeat him with conventional attacks.

Really, the only reason Dio hasn't finished Jonathan off already is because he's enjoying the rush of this new power he has, and he wants to toy with Jonathan a while longer to get more fun out of it. This exhiliration gives Jonathan time to hide with Speedwagon while Dio is distracted...

But Dio soon finds them behind a curtain. He reminds Jonathan that plans are useless in the face of human limits, but this isn't a plan.

This is CZW.

Trapping Dio under a flaming curtain only slows him down for a little bit, so Jonathan heads upstairs and tells Speedwagon to get out of here. Dio knows Jonathan is only goading him upstairs to save his pal, but he figures he can kill Speedwagon whenever he wants, so he humors Jonathan by walking up the wall to follow him.

Oh man what a boring story this is! I should have skipped to Part 5, where a guy pees in a teapot.

Outside, Speedwagon realizes that JoJo's plan is a suicide play. Flames hurt Dio, but he heals too quickly, so the only hope is to make the fire hotter by letting it burn up the whole mansion. If Jonathan can trap him inside, he'll surely burn to a crisp. But that doesn't leave much hope for Jonathan's survival, does it?

This leg of the story is pretty much Jonathan trying to tackle Dio off the second floor and down into the first, but Dio keeps giving him the slip, forcing Jonathan to come up with creative ways to hold on to him. At one point he jumps off that iron spear he tried to use earlier and when he can't reach Dio he whips out his belt and snags him like Indiana Jones. At last Dio's like "Fine, we'll fall into the flames together, you big baby."

But Jonathan makes a last-second play on the way down, as he kicks off the wall and steers Dio's body towards the point of a statue in the atrium. Dio gets impaled on it, and Jonathan tumbles away...

... and he manages to escape the house before it's too late. Now Dio's stuck inside, surrounded by flames, and it sure looks like he's doomed.

Three days later, Speedwagon desperately tries to visit Jonathan in the hospital, because he feels so bad for the kid. In one night, he lost his father, his adoptive brother, his family estate, and I guess his fortune too? And Speedwagon figures he's the only one left who can offer any comfort. Unfortunately, the nurse tending to Jonathan is a real hardass, and won't let Speedwagon see him. So Speedwagon resolves to sneak into the hospital at night, where he discovers...

... the same nurse is still taking care of Jonathan. Turns out she's not the cold jerk Speedwagon took her for, and when Jonathan wakes up, he soon recognizes her as Erina Pendelton.

Satisfied that Jonathan is in good hands, Speedwagon withdraws, cooly.

Meanwhile, Wang Chung returns to the remains of the mansion. Remember, he was there in Chapter 11, when Jonathan confronted Dio about his crimes. Wang Chung seemingly vanished after that, and he probably fled shortly after Dio started slaughtering all those cops. Now he's back, and hopes to find the Stone Mask, thinking its strange powers will fetch him a high price someday. And he finds the mask, but also...

...he finds Dio, who sucks Wang Chung's blood and swears revenge on Jonathan. Uh-oh.

Fandom Problem #6775:

I'm really sick of the mindset I've noticed lately where people act like a series is bad if it doesn't specifically pander to them. Sorry but no, people make stories based on what appeals to them and generally for a specific audience. Just because you aren't the target audience doesn't mean that it's a bad series or that the creator should have to change things to make you happy.
