Word of Honor Daily Summer Event: Women of woh (20/31)

I think a lot about gender performance in TLT and one thing that suddenly stood out to me on my latest reading is just how exhausting it must be to be Mercymorn. This immortal, devoted, genius in her own right even before the advent of necromancy has been performing femininity for more than 10,000 years. All for the sake of the deeply misogynistic man she literally worships. And what does she get for it? She's constantly told she isn't doing it well enough. She's belittled. She's talked down to. She is "unlovable Mercymorn, critical Mercymorn."

Does she turn around and perpetuate this cycle of abuse when poor, broken, Harrow comes along and somehow earns the Emperor's love in a way that Mercy never could? Absolutely. But you know what? I would have exploded into infinite particles of Mercy-dust long before she did.

It’s him.

I drew this because I wanted a new pfp for my main but in the end I didn’t like it enough. Still throwing it here tho.

Rewatching Word of Honor and I felt like putting them in matching clothes

[orchisailsa]

THEY ARE HERE!!!!!!!

Honestly I think they're cuter in person

So, I did not intend to include these guys in my recent AliExpress order. (I forgot I had put them in my cart a while ago!) But. Now that they are on their way to me, I'm not mad about it. SO CUTE!

It was brought to my attention that if we're revisiting ancient memes for Mysterious Lotus Casebook I shouldn't neglect to include this one. 🤷‍♂️

If I had a penny for every time Liu Tao played a hot girlboss wife/gf to a flimsy gremlin of a scholar-strategist malewife, who also has a deeply homoerotic friendship with a sad little man he's trying to help become the crown prince I would have two pennies. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Oh and there's also Guy played by Wang Jinsong who has a long and complicated history with the aforementioned asshole father:

Anyway the point of this post is that if you have seen either Nirvana in Fire or The Advisor's Alliance you should definitely check out the other because you would definitely probably enjoy it very much.

The Spirealm is a rom com actually.

Di Feisheng has never has a pet name for Fang Duobing because pet names are stupid. He calls his blade "blade," because that's what it is. And he calls Fang Duobing "Duobing" because that's what he is: a pain. All the pains. (in DFS's Ass) (Affectionate)
