Fanon Jin Guangyao is great. Love all the redemption fics for him. Canon though? That man’s a bitch.

[imafraidoftomorrow]

I'm rereading MDZS and it just hit me that Wei Wuxian's first impression upon meeting Lan Yuan post-resurrection was that he was a "good sprout"

You guys... you guys... that's his little radish... that's his good little sprout....

love how mxtx's books all have a coffin scene. in svsss and tgcf, the main couples temporarily get stuck in a coffin. compromising positions and sexual tension abound. in mdzs, though, the antagonist and the man he murdered thirteen years ago (both zombified) are the ones who get stuck in a coffin, doomed to tear each other's souls apart for the next century. the main couple, coffin-less, fuck off to bang in a bush. unparalleled. 10/10

finally in the process of reading the Guanyin Temple scene and holy shit if WWX isn't the protagonist of all time. We're in the Big Final Confrontation and so far my man has done fuck all except cuddle in LWJ's lap while everyone else is losing their shit and when he DOES finally do something he summons an army of naked, writhing, moaning sex corpses that even his allies just desperately wish Were Not There. stupendous, no notes

good for you, you look happy and healthy

not me, if you ever cared to ask

[glitteringpoet1685]

Not a day goes by where I don't think about how Sizhui is the embodiment of the Lan principles despite not being Lan by blood, exactly how Wei Wuxian was the embodiment of the Jiang principles despite not being a Jiang by blood. God I forgot how tragic this show was.

Xichen, please...

That's your little brother's privacy.

I'm sure it's against the Lan rules

[frankencanon]

you ever think about the fact that nie huaisang's father and brother both died the exact same way — forced into qi deviation via a third party

you ever think about how nie mingjue's obsession with getting revenge for his father's murder might have been foreshadowing for nie huaisang's own obsession with avenging his brother and utterly destroying jin guangyao

you ever think about how nie huaisang is a lot more like nie mingjue than most people realize

Jin Guangyao is really out here like "I am going to get a good grade in Accidental Incest Husband, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve".

my favorite part of the jin guangyao & nie huaisang dynamic that seemingly every fic ignores is that jin guangyao genuinely thought of nie huaisang as incompetent and annoyingly whiny. he didn't realize at ALL until the very end that he was being intentionally played.

he might’ve recognized that huaisang has potential when he actually puts his mind to things. but jin guangyao honestly believed across two decades that huaisang at most was rich, pampered, and pathetically ill-prepared.

it came as a nasty, hysterical shock to jin guangyao that the little brother of the man he killed had actually 1) figured out at any point what he did 2) kept his bitter vicious rage inside and secretly wished him dead 3) brought that to fruition with a skillful mix of planning, improv, and making others do the dirty work of publicly exposing everything for him.
