The way Mao Mao is yearning more quietly for Jinshi I barely noticed it in the anime it's so obvious now that's she rejects her feelings because of her position. She is a curious cat, experiencing what her sisters warned her not to try, but she loves testing poisons on herself.

There is simply something about the way she brushes his cheek, she way she silently looks at him, the way they just click as partners and trust each other whenever they're working on a case. How she was almost unconscious and bleeding in his arms, but still looking at him as if he was the most precious flower in the world. The most obvious thing to me is how she never rejects his hugs and any form of kinship with him. We all know Mao Mao can reject people (La clan) if she wants to. She feels safe with him, she feels comfortable enough to throw a fit to taste poison, to get a little bit too excited for ingredients (climbing on his desk) and to dance around him.

Long short story she is a simp just like anybody else in the palace. But she simps with dignity and tries to know him a little better.

No matter how progressive or well-read you are, there are always going to be moments in your life where somebody pushes back against something that's so culturally ingrained you never even considered it before. And you'll say "Huh, it never occurred to me to challenge this but you're right" and that doesn't mean you were "morally toxic" before, it means you're a non-omniscient human capable of growth.

y’all ever think about aziraphale reading the picture of dorian gray

The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful.

i think aziraphale put the book down for quite some time after that chapter

"Is it normal to-" Doesn't matter. Do it weird if it isn't hurting anyone

Full offense but your writing style is for you and nobody else. Use the words you want to use; play with language, experiment, use said, use adverbs, use “unrealistic” writing patterns, slap words you don’t even know are words on the page. Language is a sandbox and you, as the author, are at liberty to shape it however you wish. Build castles. Build a hovel. Build a mountain on a mountain or make a tiny cottage on a hill. Whatever it is you want to do. Write.

Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections. The 26 year old barista couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me

when you get the summoning instructions mixed up...

more ocs! I had this idea for a comic years ago but I didn't really think of doing anything with it unless it was a long running comic, but then I thought covering this interaction alone for starters was fine too 👍
