Peeking into the Past

One of the most enjoyable things about writing historical fiction is falling down the research rabbit hole. Yes, I know authors of contemporary fiction have to do research also. Not disrespecting other writers. Just saying that historical research is, in my view, lots more interesting. I especially like to read memoirs, and collections of letters. I have a couple of print books in my memoir…

Liu qingge in my mind is one of those guys that punches a hole through the wall when he sees a spider, like will swear up and down he just wanted to kill the spider and doesn't know his strength and the wall should be stronger

I don't know about you guys, but I take pictures and send videos to people in my sleep. 💤

I'm thinking that König messages his significant other at four in the morning, sending you messages while he's dreaming away and you're resting your head beside him. You'll wake up to the notifications, reading the weirdest messages through your sleepy, exhausted haze while König snores peacefully, blissfully unaware of his actions and confusing words.

I think he'd send you a couple messages while having a wet dream as well... 👀
