[seraphimsrevenge]

Intro thingy!!

Hi there! I'm Charlie or Seraph (Use He/him 4 me pls) and this is my writing account. This is where I'll be uploading things in terms of writing and book discussion. I might post art time to time here aswell just 4 u guys to get used to the look of my Ocs

I also AM 16. This blog is purely SFW and I feel uncomfortable with ppl sending things which are not SFW.

Currently Im reading 'the spirit bares it teeth' by Andrew Joseph White!

Im also quite a 'beginner' when it comes to writing so my work might not be very good, sorry abt that :(

What I'll write

The stuff I'll write are:

-Oc content

-fandom content (rarely)

-More Oc content regarding lore

-Ur guys Suggestions!!!

My ocs!

this is a section so u guys can get a little connected to sum of my ocs! These guys r all in the same universe which is loosely inspired by 'Hell Followed With Us' by Andrew Joseph White!! All I'll give u is their appearances cuz their backstories will be in other posts!!

-Zephyr

Prologue look:

Zephyr is nonbinary and uses They/Them pronouns. They traditionally are seen with a hoodie and fleece on in the stables, trying to hide as much as possible. There is no black clothing in the stables, the elders believe that it makes people emotional due to being the colour of mortal funerals. So instead Zephyr's hoodie is the darkest shade of grey one could find before being classified as black. There are dye stains all across the hoodie from the spots that they have missed in poor attempts to dye the hoodie. The fleece however is more simple. It's a dark burgundy lined with light red fabric, mimicking the colour of seraph. Only the top of Zephyr's trousers are ripped. The elders only allowed that, any lower and Zephyr would see that pair incinerated before their eyes. So the top is ripped, not the knees or below it ,only one rip on each thigh. Finally to top Zephyr’s outfit they wear platformers, the platformers are hidden under their trousers, so while uncomfortable it does make them look like acceptable boots.

Zephyr is also apart of the Cadet force in the stables being apart of the Kravi squad. The cadet outfit is exactly what it sounds like. Green jackets lined with bulletproof vests, brown trousers and laced boots, normally with a similar green shirt. Its very rarely that they use camo unless in full scaled panned attacks.

Zephyrs physique is carefully crafted by the way the elders have made their diet and routine. Their more on the muscular side, yet are still unusually skinny making the, more agile. Zephyr sports a mullet kinda? Its shaved and shorter at the sides, the front being fluff falling over their forehead as the back falls out to their neck. Their eyelashes are more of a blueish with eyes a mix of brown and burgundy. Since they are a seraph they also have three wings.

Present look:

Zephyr present look is still similar to their cadet look now sporting in monotone as they become a cadet for the Callers, However, they also now have a binder which was given to them by Styx. Their physique is still similar, they’ve still got the more athletic build, well as athletic as you can get for a 16 year old. However this wasn't done by intensive training.

Even after escaping the stable, Zephyr is still scarred from it. Half of their body now being discoloured skin from their ‘repentance’ to the elders, they don't feel much on that half anymore.

-Thomas

Prologue look:

Thomas is a cis man around zephyrs age. He’s lanky and scrawny and looks like a mess overall, well apart from how he dresses. In some sort of clash Thomas dresses rather smartly, typically being seen in a pale white/cream button up shirt with a grey jumper crocheted by his mother. His eyes are a pale blue and his hair is brown. Near the end of the prologue he has a promise ring in which he also gave Zephyr.

‘Present’ look:

In the present Thomas is around 18 (One year older then Zephyr), His hair is shorter than the messy look and looks more clean. He now dawns a hunting robe in white, the elder symbol for hunter being sewn onto the back. He still looks professional under the robes, now wearing a black button up and waistcoat, he also wears more baggier trousers and boots which he is comfortable running in. He still wears the promise ring he gave Zephyr

-Styx

Present look:

Styx is the same age as Zephyr but looks like a 12 year old boy. Whether that's because of his roundish face or because of his smaller physique. Styx is small and weak, having a more gaunt appearance, collarbones being visible an unhealthy amount. His hair is full of curls and waves, framing his face and covering his right eye. Styx has blackish brown hair, now dawning a burgundy undertone. He only has one working eye, a seafoam green that lightly illuminates in the dark, His other eye is a glass. A white iris accompanying it. Upon closer inspection the glass eye is cracked, a small line going from the pupil to the iris.

Styx dresses like your stereotypical trans boy, he wears a baggy black hoodie (And has a collection of black band hoodies) and has a pair of jeans to go with them. Despite being held up by a belt, Styx’s jeans still fall big on him around the waist, same goes with most of his clothes; his clothes are so oversized to the point that you can see the first half of his binder, a cropped black binder (Later the same one that Zephyr would wear). Followed by a pair of green converse, the runic symbol of decay written on it where the star would be. Styx also wears a Burgundy/dull red bandana, dropping to his collarbones, the bandana adorned with pins of a medical symbol and a wrench. However sometimes Styx can be seen wearing a blanket around him, normally in colder weather.

-Owen

Present look:

Owen is cis man who is more tanner than the rest of the callers. He is normally seen wearing a black mask as half of his mouth is torn open, teeth adorning the inside and outside of the half, gums showing. Owens' ears and skin typically looks like it's melting a little, or a little unfinished due to his nature of being a shard - a being that has not fully finished forming. His hair looks more bouncy, normally moving outwards in a similar way to a wolf cut, his hair is naturally black but to also try to look similar to his Anthon he has dyed half of his hair a more whitish cream colour.

His outfit is normally the same everyday, having multiple copies of the same outfit. Owen can be seen with a vintage aviator jacket. The jacket is itself made of brown leather and clasped with multiple buckles, but not across the fur sections of it. Owen also wears a necklace around his neck, containing a vial of angel's blood, being contained by a bone casing. As part of being apart of the callers Owen also sports the cadet uniform underneath; he wears the cargos, the shirt and boots.  Normally you would also see Styx and Owen together, Styx typically using him as a radiator.

-Kilian

Prologue + Present look:

Kilian is the leader of the Callers, the one with the responsibility to look after Corvis (The god of the dead), but also in recent events to keep the elders at bay. Kilians hair is a mixture of a greyish cream and red, curls falling out of place, as his hair falls into an undercut. His hair also curls into shaping his deep brown skin, making his ivory purples eyes stand out. To some Kilian seems monstrous due to this, he seems unhuman in some light as his irises seem to disappear. Kilian also has a feather earring, the feather being one plucked directly from Corvis, which weighs down his ear a little. Kilian wears a more ‘extreme’ version of the callers uniform, wearing a shawl that drops to the pockets of his jacket, His bladed shoulder armour stabbing out on his left shoulder. His jacket is adorned with pockets, enabling for maximum storage and resourcefulness, itself being bulk by adding many protective measures underneath it. Kilian also has multiple belts surrounding his waist, a chained belt to attach more armouries and useful items to him, he also has an extra pouch just in case. The rest of his outfit then follows the rest of the callers, the same cargo trousers and the same boots, making them seem unified in looks, but less in personality. A more special thing about Kilian is that not only is he the sole carer for Corvis, he also was able to inherit some of its power. While it was a gruelling process of having his arm to be cut off just be attached with a new oozing black bile look, Yellow crow eyes sprouting out of it, it enabled Kilian to be more flexible, and to also adapt this arm into a more prominent weapon crucial for survival.

sorry if this all seems a little rushed (It kinda is lol) But yeah, Hope u enjoy ur time here!!!

Updated ToH!Mike

Plus, an alt ver with dyed hair bc I didn’t know what ppl would like more 😭

Backstory: Mike is the middle child out of two sisters, Nancy and Holly. His parents run whatever the equivalent to an accounting firm in the Boiling Isles is. Karen is the face of that business due to her nature, while Ted is more working on the behind the scenes aspects. Ted doesn’t know much about his kids (except Holly) and Karen is so obsessed with appearing as a perfect family, she tends to forget her kids wants and needs in the process. Also, wouldn’t be complete without complete without child labor!! Mike writes and did enjoy it, until his parents saw it and figured out how to use it to their advantage. He writes letters, reports, and whatever else they can find for him to do.

Explanation for Mike’s hair (Pasted from another post of mine): I like to think Karen is forcing him to dye his hair like this because neither she or Ted have black hair and it throws people off. She believes it’s bad for the business they’re running or whatever, idk.

I would like to expand more on that, Mike is 100% Ted’s child (no scandals here, lol). But Karen is so worried about judgment from others, that it forces her to take these drastic steps. That’s probably apart of her offscreen arc or something because I like to think that she’d eventually grow as a person.

Mike’s relationship with Lucas: They were best friends until they were 10. Karen realized that Mike was getting bullied and basically made him change everything about himself, including his friends. Weak people have weak friends, strong people surround themselves with strong connections. They really stopped talking to each other when Mike stopped saying anything against Lucas’s bullies. He became a bystander.

I know he’s supposed to be the Amity of this au, but I really can’t see him bullying anyone. I think what’s more accurate is him repressing his true self and feelings, then meeting Will and essentially becoming himself again.

Relationship with his family: Mike is just a kid so he does love his parents. However, sometimes he wonders if they actually love him, or what he can do for them. At times, he feels like more of a prop than their child.

He loves his sisters as well, but isn’t close to Nancy. He tries to make sure to be the best brother to Holly that he can be.

I’ll tell more about his relationship with Will in another post but I might add onto this later!! I dunno yet 😭

I might make the other sheets differently, again I’m not sure yet

Also, feel free to add your own thoughts and headcanons!! I love hearing new ideas!

Since you requested to be tagged <3 @jainasolo1233

[segment--uta]

So info thing hsls

Tis a roleplay blog for a segment, specifically Uta. Or also like one of Dottore's segments. Around probably mid 20s or so ?? I don't really have a specific timeframe in mind so there's that but yeah. Kinda think young(/ish) and can kind of be chaos often? That's the best way I can describe it I think—

・❥ That established, they use they/he. Alternative, doesn't care which is specifically used, so long as it's those. Or it. They also vibe with it so that can work

・❥ They are very much with the Fatui. Apart from that, he isn't really affiliated with really any other group. Does not seek it out. Feels no need to. Could probably get him to join something though tbh, but Fatui will always be the main group

・❥ OCs or Canon characters, either or. They might have some relation to some canons though already in mind, so keep that in mind probably? The other segments and Dottore/Prime himself for example. If it comes across a certain way (ie rivalry/dislike, cough cough Diluc n others who do not like the Fatui particularly) that's probably the reason! Might not be on purpose rip

・❥ Uta is demiromantic demi-graysexual. Please keep that in mind if you are trying to be romantic rp wise. It will take a while and intimate type activities are not priority. Unless it's a pre-decided relationship, which in that case you get to deal with Uta being lovey-ish. Kind of

・❥ Specific 'build' would likely be the Eta build.

~Specific tags time~

✧ behind the scenes —— the OOC. For announcements and really everything that isn't roleplay. Like this lol

✧ uta is nearby . . —— Starter sort of. Can be used to start RPs/interactions and stuff ! And just generally there. Locations will probably be specific in the message so tis just that (or if you want a specific location, specify n will go with that)

✧ uta answers questions . . —— The askbox! If it's an IC ask, say for RP n all, this'll be used. Otherwise its the ooc one for asks :3

⧎ Interactive chats . . —— Like the IC ask, but for general purposes in roleplay instead. Ie when someone is responded to / rbed and is during RP

Askbox rules.

✧ Keep in mind that there is a person behind this screen. If you want to hate or dislike this / genshin, that's more than alright, but please don't bring this in my inbox. Block and move on. If you really have a problem please just message me instead. Hate will be deleted. IC dislike and hate is one thing and is fine, it's more alright considering different relations + characters, but if you are genuinely trying to be rude, don't. It will just get deleted.

✧ No straight up NSFW and such things. Suggestive might be fine depending on the character and the relation. If you're actually looking for that, you'd probably want to be on good terms with Uta. Otherwise it will probably not be received well. It really depends for suggestive stuff. Joking wise it might be fine + OOC.

✧ Please be patient. Depending on how many asks, esp if there's many rps going on, it may take a while to get to yours. I promise I'm not ignoring you. I might not have seen it either if Tumblr decides to eat it.

✧ Roleplay in asks is fine. All I ask is that you specify who you are/who character is (unless you want to be an anon instead n stuff) and sign off so I can note that properly n keep track of who it is + relation to Uta.

Other things to note

🂱 Responses will probablyyyy be lengthy or detailed. Might also last a while rip—

-->> "" used for talking, actions and such (ie expressions) will just be words/wrote. Thoughts will probably be smaller text. Like that

🂱 Uta is the same segment as @uta-official . Same segment that's used there :3

🂱 As for specific user or character tags, dunno yet actually! Might be like ' ✧ ⊹⊱[User/Chara]⊰⊹ interactions ' ? I think it'll be that. Anons will be specific anon n probably that also!

I think that's about it,,,askbox is open, feel free to interact if wanted.

Dunno what else to put but hemlo there ppl :3

Why Tumblr Sexyman Zim? I don't know how long have you been in the fandom, but there are people who call themselves (the) zimps. Like @mizzztery , @izzydrawsforfun (and there is also someone else, but I forgot their name), you probably should ask them. LOL

Honestly, I dunno what I expected, of course there are zimps- btw, I've entered the fandom when ETF came out and recently joined again for the funnies. I DID see them in the tags sometime.

But I mean, it was just the shock factor, be thirsty for whatever you want I guess, I also simp for weirdos lmfao.

I'll just leave that entry there. It's not like it's the weirdest entry in the sexypedia. The song touch-tone telephone is there for some reason.

But I DO would like to know why do these ppl simp for Zim lmao. Besides, I am bored and like chatting so-

Edit: the first one doesn't allow minors so yeah, it's a no-no for me haha

#10YearPromise - pingxie blabberings

bc i wasn’t able to answer these questions throughout the week (as i’ve been traveling around while being extremely busy), i decided to just collect all of my answers under one post! i never tire talking about pingxie so this was extremely enjoyable ♥ am also practicing some very shameless self promo in this so be prepared!

thank you for @laireshi​ for organizing this event (i take it’s you alone? am not sure, sorry for my laziness) and being amazing in general ^^ i won’t be able to join as i am still very busy and summer is always pure chaos for me, so i can only hope that other ppl have fun! if you are not aware of 10 Year Promise Pingxie Exchange, you can find the original announcement post here. join in if you have the time and inspiration ^^ 

and then to my answers which i will be placing under the cut bc i don’t want to flood anyone’s dash with me going bonkers over these two idiots. enjoy tho if you decide to read this :’D ♥

I. What made you ship pingxie?

Back when I got into Reboot bc of ZYL (as has happened to many ppl probably) and then saw stuff about pingxie once I started going through that drama’s tag on tumblr, my first thought about them was that they had to be a crack ship. The way Reboot portrays them as well as their actors and their huuuge age difference affected this a lot, and I was actually cackling at them bc all their moments in Reboot made me just go “oh, socialist brotherhood at its best” in my head. But then I finished watching Reboot’s 1st season (as the 2nd one wasn’t out yet) and started reading some fics. I learned more about them and the canon storyline. I learned how damn devoted they are to each other, and after that, many moments in Reboot gained new meaning in my eyes. So, I think what made me ship pingxie was a mix of Reboot (especially the hallucination moment where Xiaoge dies and Wu Xie loses it bc that’s my jam as I later on became to notice) and then the amazing fics I dug out during that time. After that the love grew stronger as I watched the other dramas, and these days I’m a lost cause. I feel like I spend most of my awake time thinking about these two and their love. They are amazing. I cry rivers for them.

II. Which pingxie version is your favorite?

After finding pingxie, I fell in love with them properly during TLT2. There is just something about that stage of their relationship for me, the stage where both of them are still very tentative about everything but they have deep down accepted that they’re tied now. Wu Xie is figuring out so many things, coming to terms with being betrayed by his uncle and slowly realizing that something bigger is going on behind the scenes. Meanwhile, Xiaoge is learning how to trust Wu Xie and how to accept that he cannot leave this naïve boy behind. It feels very fragile, and I have so many emotions about TLT2 bc of this. Xiaoge is so soft and feels very multilayered. Wu Xie is still his naïve self but is slowly gaining some sharper edges as he comes to face the cruel world. I like how Cheng Yi and Hou Minghao have portrayed this dynamic. Also, TLT2 is just very extra with all the pingxie scenes, who would be able to resist loving them? So, I have to admit that my favorite pingxie is these two, tho Ultimate Note comes very, very close.

III. What’s your favorite pingxie headcanon?

Headcanons are a bit hard for me as I don’t know enough of the canon. I have not read the novels so most of the story I’ve just patched together from all the bits I’ve read from somewhere (here, on twt, in fics) and through the scenes the dramas have shown me. I feel like the whole world is lowkey made of headcanons for me :’D But hmm, my favorite pingxie headcanon… I’d say there are two and then one bonus bc it’s more a Wu Xie related headcanon than just pingxie. The first one is that the pingxie confession happens after the Bronze Gate. It feels like the only moment when they’re both ready for such a thing. I’d say Xiaoge comes to realize his own feelings a lot earlier and he might tell something to unconscious Wu Xie before leaving for ten years, but he will not actually leave Wu Xie with such a burden. He doesn’t want to ask anything when it sounds like he doesn’t even believe that Wu Xie will be willing to wait for him, and I’d say that for him, his feelings are going to be fine even if Wu Xie never learns about them. He might even wish that Wu Xie never learns about them bc he’s not able to promise much as an immortal and amnesiac being (he outlives Wu Xie, most likely forgets him). For Wu Xie however, I’d say he needs time. He really is way too naïve and I’d say that he needs those ten years to realize that he’s in love with his best friend. I dunno who confesses first after Xiaoge returns but I think that only after that decade their relationship is “mature” enough to hold the weight of a confession (even if I also love to play around with the thought of them getting together during the events of Ultimate Note bc that drama offered many good chances for that). Another headcanon for me is that Xiaoge will find a way to die when Wu Xie does. After learning about them more, I feel like Reboot implies this too. Xiaoge is very accepting of Wu Xie’s death but in the last moments, when he really thinks that this is going to be it for Wu Xie, he hesitates. We see a spark of desperation there, and I’ve come to think that his initial plan, the plan he came up with once he got that call from Wu Xie and knew he would join Wu Xie on his last adventure, was to see this through for Wu Xie’s sake and then leave and die alone. I don’t know how much there would be left for Zhang Qiling after Wu Xie is gone. I feel like this is also what Wu Xie fears. But would he really resent Xiaoge for joining him in death after living such a long and hard life? I’d say no and I’d say that even Pangzi accepts this as one of the most likely outcomes. The bonus one then feels very personal to me. I don’t usually talk about this bc I feel so unsure of even mentioning this but I’ve seen others with similar thoughts so am sharing! I’ve never before gotten any vibes about a character��s sexuality in a drama I’ve watched but Reboot Wu Xie looked at me once in the eye and all I could hear was my brain yelling “asexual”. So, that is just my personal headcanon for Wu Xie. He’s ace and proud of it. He can flirt etc. but sex makes him go naah. He doesn’t need it or want it. He can appreciate beauty and hot ppl without wanting to sleep with them and I think his relationship with Xiaoge fits very well into this. I don’t have any personal experiences with being ace but I feel like Wu Xie has read the name once, shrugged and gone, “guess that’s me” and continued on with his life. He’s badass like that and I love him for it. (take a very relevant meme lol from this post)

IV. What’s the ideal pingxie date?

Ah, christ. I dunno if I’ve ever thought about them going on a date? In the middle of tomb raiding, hospital trips and fighting against powers bigger than themselves, I’ve rarely seen any time for them to do something like that lol. But after Ultimate Note, I’ve thought about star gazing a lot. Just them, the infinite night sky and some lonely hilltop. They would probably take a blanket with them, huddle together and talk about things in hushed voices. Wu Xie would go on a ramble about all the constellations and their meanings and mythology behind them and Xiaoge would just nod at him and watch Wu Xie talking. Maybe he would offer some tidbits in the middle of the rambling, making Wu Xie smile brightly. It would be relaxing and comfortable and loving. They would make out a lil bit. Would maybe lie down and play with each other’s hair. All their worries would feel insignificant. Wu Xie would fall asleep for a moment and Xiaoge would wake him up with a kiss to get him moving again so that they don’t need to sleep on the cold ground. They would return home and drink something warm and then go to sleep, cuddled together and happy. relevant edit x

V. What’s your favorite pingxie getting together scenario?

I guess I already talked about this a bit but let me elaborate then! As said, I’d see it happening after the Bronze Gate. I am not sure if it would be right away (they’re both going through so much trauma at that point) or if it would happen after Reboot (maybe we would still need Wu Xie almost dying for them to get their shit together), but I’d say it happens in a rush either way. It’s one of those “I have to tell you something before it’s too late” -type of moments. Or one of those “Bc I love you, you idiot!” -type of moments. I feel like I keep thinking that maybe Wu Xie would have to confess first bc as said, Xiaoge wouldn’t like to burden Wu Xie with his feelings when there’s so little he can give in the sense of normalcy. But then again, I have written a oneshot where Xiaoge is the first one to confess and that always feels better for me. That at some point Xiaoge feels secure enough to tell Wu Xie about his own feelings. That he feels confident and comfortable enough to say it out loud while still expecting nothing in return bc he knows that Wu Xie won’t abandon him either way. But no matter how that happens, I always see it as this dam breaking. The emotions finally become too strong. Something happens that reminds them that life is too short. Something happens that makes them finally talk it out and ah, Pangzi can finally take a break, what a joy

VI. What’s your favorite pingxie moment?

Every adaptation has its own good moments so let me make a list (like I saw someone else do too):

The Lost Tomb:

Xiaoge rescues Wu Xie from the shibie

Wu Xie worrying over unconscious Xiaoge plus taking care of him in the hotel room

The Pingxie MomentTM aka Xiaoge saving Wu Xie from falling and then cradling the boy to his chest while thumb rubbing his shoulder

The Lost Tomb 2:

Xiaoge revealed to be Baldie and Wu Xie yelling at him about it

Lowkey the whole underwater tomb arc bc holy shit that’s gay

Wu Xie losing it when Xiaoge doesn’t come up from the underwater tomb, diving after him and then almost dying himself + Pangzi getting angry at him for being stupid

pingxie ft. magical skype in the bronze tree cave (and Xiaoge being emo about the 1000yo warrior guy right before that)

Xiaoge rescuing Wu Xie from drowning (they shared air, you cannot convince me otherwise) + Wu Xie giving Xiaoge his watch in the hospital (relevant edits x x)

Wu Xie’s face when he sees Zhang Buxun in the coffin bc I love pain :)

Xiaoge not shooting Wu Xie despite not remembering him in the mountain village

Wu Xie grabbing Xiaoge’s jacket after being kidnapped and the Iron Triangle reunites in that old Chen guy’s cabin, asking, “Is that you?” from Xiaoge to make sure that he remembers again while looking like the biggest puppy (relevant edit x)

also some relevant memes x

Ultimate Note:

The hand over mouth reunion in the Golmud Sanatorium

“Xiaoge will ignore anyone else but you”

Xiaoge pretending he isn’t Losing ItTM throughout the whole time Wu Xie is in the Devil’s City with A-Ning

more hand over mouth with the gigantic snake

“The goddess has ascended”

Wu Xie protecting Xiaoge after he returns from the jade meteorite 

“Do you remember me?” “Wu Xie.”

Wu Xie promising to help Xiaoge find his memories no matter what bc Xiaoge’s business is Wu Xie’s business 

“Maybe you can return home with a wife today.” Wu Xie: proceeds to stare at Xiaoge, horrified

“Take me home.”

The sword gifting scene (especially Xiaoge denying the possibility of him killing Wu Xie or them harming each other, relevant edits x x)

other relevant edits for ultimate note x x

Reboot:

Wu Xie telling Xiaoge about his sickness and then Xiaoge coming back and promising to join Wu Xie on his trip (relevant edit x)

the death hallucination bc am a masochist 

Wu Xie’s death dream where Xiaoge calls to him but then accepts his choice to move forward bc am a masochist pt. 2

pingxie reunion in the Thunder City forest where Xiaoge saves Wu Xie & co. from the poisonous gas 

the moment in Thunder City where Wu Xie sits outside at night, eating the peanuts Pangzi gave him and then notices Xiaoge, offering him the peanuts and smiling 

when Xiaoge leaves for the last time and then gets reunited with healed Wu Xie against all odds

the train scene and their softest smiles to each other  

Time Raiders:

Wu Xie being the best bean and just wanting to befriend this mysterious man while seeing right under his skin and making Xiaoge baffled and fall in love in approximately 0.5 seconds

Xiaoge, catch! *proceeds to save only Wu Xie when they fall into that shibie horror chamber*  

Xiaoge’s desperation to save Wu Xie from the crumbling ground 

their death waltz at the end of the movie plus Xiaoge’s sacrifice

+ Sand Sea: 

“Don’t you dare call him Xiaoge!” 

Wu Xie offering his friends and then himself as comfort to Li Cu when he’s scared while smiling very softly at the memory of Xiaoge 

“But isn’t his surname Wu?” Hei Xiazi: You have seen nothing yet, you sweet summer child

Wu Xie talking about Xiaoge’s past in the temple (aka the Tibetan Sea Flower story bc I just adore how pretty they’ve made those scenes) 

VII. What is the best gift Wu Xie and Xiaoge could give each other?

I haven’t really thought about this type of stuff either bc we have already seen a ton of gifts being exchanged! I love the watch Wu Xie gives to Xiaoge in TLT2 as mentioned (it’s so silly but also so sweet) and I love it that Wu Xie gifts Xiaoge with a new sword in Ultimate Note. Also, I feel like I can count the food Wu Xie leaves for Xiaoge in Ultimate Note and that one moment where Xiaoge offers his knife for Wu Xie as a “pen”. They would give anything for each other as long as the other asked (which they never do) so I dunno what type of gift would matter the most. As it’s so hard to say, let me talk about one more headcanon that I’ve been thinking about ever since the infamous Bazaar photoshoot for Ultimate Note/XYL & ZSX. So, we see them having matching rings and necklaces in that photoshoot. I think jewelry would be kind of difficult for Xiaoge to wear when he needs to fight, as jewelry could be a hindrance in that type of situation But my brain won’t shut up about “pingxie married!!!” when I ask this question from it. To be honest, I do not see pingxie getting married in the traditional sense. They don’t need something like that after everything they’ve gone through. But I like to play around with the thought of promise rings. Just them exchanging rings for fun, for their own sakes, to have something concrete that reminds them of their promise to each other and of their feelings. Maybe even Xiaoge could wear that ring under his gloves idk. But am a sucker for that thought so my answer to this is then simply: a ring. relevant edits x x

if you read this far, thank you so much! I hope this gave you something and thank you once more for organizing this and allowing everyone to share their love for pingxie ^^ ♥

Lil Update Here

Hey y’all. Just wanted to let ppl know some things.

I’m feeling like tumblr may have become a little unhealthy for me at the moment. I’m on it more chronically than anything else. And I think lately it’s led me to start comparing myself to others again. Which isn’t the greatest thing to be doing to yourself.

Comparing how lacking my abilities seem to other people’s rate of interaction, art skill, and writing skill hasn’t been the funnest time. It’s had me tackling my imposter syndrome more than I’d like to as of late. Am I doing enough? Am I even that good at what I do? Do people truly like the things I do? Do I belong here? Am I doing this whole blog thing right? Am I really doing everything I can? I know the resounding answers to all these questions for the most part is yes, but a part of me is trying to doubt.

I’ve been thinking about my relationships with moots and wondering if those relationships are still okay too. Aside from the few people I’ve interacted with and who have interacted with me consistently lately I feel kind of… alone? Do people on here people truly like me? Am I annoying? Did they forget about me? Do they hate me? Is my content just not good enough to notice or talk to me anymore? I know it isn’t anyone’s job to reach out to me. And I could just as easily reach out myself (in some cases I have and have both received and not received responses). There are some others who I’m worried about too. It’s all just… tough.

And there a lot of factors occurring outside of tumblr that aren’t exactly helping with how I’m doing mentally either.

So I’m gonna try to limit my time on tumblr for a while. Focus on myself and what I might enjoy doing or creating without having to worry about anyone else. So I don’t have to compare myself as much.

Some steps I’m taking are:

Spending only 2 hours per day at most on this app for the incoming week

Turning tumblr notifs off

Creating a tag for queues

No scrolling. If I wanna read smth I read from what I’ve compiled in an external read later list.

If I’m not reading but want to be on tumblr I’ll be working behind the scenes on stuff for my blog

Dunno how long this will be for, but right now I’m focusing on the incoming week.

Feel free to DM me or send me asks still if you want. I’ll just get to them when I get to them. If you have my contact info on any other platform feel free to hit me up there too.

I’m not trying to go cold turkey and completely disappear for a while or anything, but if that is what I end up doing, pls know I’m not dead lol.

It would be great if whoever sees this reblogs it so other moots might possibly see it. Thanks ✌🏾.

I love you all 💜💜💜.

[jedi-order-apologist]

yooooo just wanna say im legit SO glad i found ur blog. ur fantastic at putting words together to form solid debate w/o making it feel like unwarranted aggression. u would make a fantastic jedi. i totally get why more people dont bring up the issue considering how ppl get online, but its so great to just read good jedi meta! i also think its fascinating (in like. a horrifying way) how the jedi hate in the fandom came to be, and your explanation feels like it hit the nail in the head. (1/?)

Fundamental misunderstandings about Asian philosophies, false equivocacy with the Christian religion, intolerance toward aro/aspec folk, being just flat out unable to relate to or sympathize with characters that dont act or process in certain ways, these are all things i def noticed but never had the words to put into! Ive seen the term "marital bliss" used maybe 4 times in fandom unironically, (2/?)

ALL in star wars. someone once compared the no attatchments rule to "pray the gay away" (yes about anidala, a very much het couple) The way they cry "child thief cultists!" one minute then joke over soldiers in the aftermath of a battle (that they fought in and walked away from) finding a small child in the wreckage (of what was likely their home, meaning said soldier was likely responsible for attacking and destroying and uh. orphaning them) and then taking them from the planet without (3/?)   

, i dunno? checking for extended family? And i LOVE true mando culture (i am sabine wren's bitch forever and always, and each and every one of the clones are a babe) but somehow other sw culture tags, (mando and tatooine basically) are just hella anti-jedi??? and this really unfounded idea that no one in the order liked anakin, and that they didnt have a fufilling sustainable way of life after a millenia of existing, and the inexplicable but we all know why dislike for windu especially?? (4/?)

youve managed to answer so many questions while also giving and linking genuine, informative, interesting meta for anyone interested in listening and im super grateful for it! (sorry for the monster of an ask lol. also just realized i ended up talking more about negativity than anything else of the MANY things i wanted to compliment u on T^T) (5 or 6 idk anymore/?)            

Thank you so much! I’m really glad that my blog and meta has been able to resonate with you and so many other people :) And I’m glad that it doesn’t come off as aggressive, because I do worry about that sometimes when I’m trying to think of the best way to word things.

It really is so unfortunate how much more criticism the Jedi get in all aspects than any other culture in Star Wars, and how often appreciation for those other cultures spends an inordinate amount of time taking potshots at the Jedi as if to bolster their favored group by comparison. Sure, in-universe, it makes complete sense for many Mandalorians to be anti-Jedi, but the fandom doesn’t need to be.

People really don’t understand the “no attachments” thing - a lot of the expanded material didn’t help with that because they too often conflated attachment with love, and people projected that onto the films. (I also think the AOTC marketing is to blame a bit too - I was only 6 at the time the film came out so I don’t really remember but a lot of the marketing stuff seems to have gone really hard on the “forbidden love” aspect. A lot of the trailers, for example, have the line where Padmé says she thought love was forbidden for a Jedi, but don’t include Anakin’s response to that explaining the difference, so of course the former part sticks out in people’s minds through repetition).

And yeah, the Order was, as far as we’re shown in the films/TCW, generally reasonable towards Anakin and did their best to support and guide him - it’s just, well, evidently guidance is criticism in the fandom’s eyes. That, and a not-insignificant part of fandom likes to woobify him, and twisting the situation into a “everybody was so mean and unfair to him” thing is a pretty standard woobification tactic.

Fanon interpretations of the Jedi are just...really annoying, in general, and if I can at least get people to consider a more charitable view, then I’ll be much happier. If not, well, at least I can commiserate about it all with other Jedi fans like you!

Favorite color? My fav color is blue... mostly greenish blues

Things people do that drive you crazy? umm go slow or hold me up tbh lolly gagging is so crazy to me cus its just wasting my time and I hate having my time wasted.... also when ppl I don't like touch me or bosses talk to me ineffectively cus I feel like I constantly show how good of an employee I am uk? like idk anyway

Phobias? HOMO(phobia)!!! jk

Favorite childhood sports? I played a LOT of softball and loved it tbh.. I love team sports lol really wanted to play basketball but shortly fell into ye ol childhood obesity

Do you talk to yourself? Just the usually self-depreciating comment here and there honestly or like a “fuck me” or “damn guess ill go fuck myself” when ppl do wild shit to me ya know?

What movies do you adore? Zombieland, Sleeping With Other People, She's Out of My League, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Snowpiercer, Annihilation, Her, Prometheus.... Honestly comedies, sci-fis, and romcoms haha

Favorite kind of music? I like alt music tbh anything bass heavy and has a lot of live instruments

Tea or Coffee? I like both.... BUT if you held a gun to my head... probably coffee. It wakes me and puts me to sleep so hey that's cool
