Can you imagine being he xuan after the events of the final book and seeing that one guy that your boyfrienemy made great friends with, who also happens to be that other guy’s 800 year long crush who he’ll murder anyone who looks at him wrong, defeat the literal god of gods, the heavenly emperor himself, and prove that he is in fact deserving of the title number one in the three realms? Thanking every deity and twist of fate out there that he’s down so bad for your evil colleague that he understands to let you do your business and honestly doesn't blame you for it instead of exterminating you on the spot, which you just found out he was fully capable of doing this whole time, even more so than your evil colleague, he’s just not that kind of guy. This man figured out the whole puzzle so damn quick, instantly knew he was the suspicious one, was so close to blowing his cover at so many instances. If things went haywire enough back then….let’s just say legendary ghost king Black Water Demon Xuan has a few extra incense sticks to spare for his highness anymore…

Auld Lang Syne

Some sentimental thoughts after the cut.

Two months ago I thought Rosalind Myers would be "just" a one night stand during Val's journey to find a cure; instead they celebrated the holidays together (1, 2). Rosalind reignited my passion for the game, and made me truly understand superlatives like "screaming crying throwing up" and wanting to eat glass.

I'll forever love Mitch. He helped pull me from the worst depression of my life, led me to Discord and Tumblr, and ultimately people who have become dear friends. My love for him prompted me to write a novel-length drama/romance smut about guilt and loss when I hadn't written in years. No one can ever supplant him or the place he holds in my heart.

All that said... Rosalind upended my world. She rewired my brain, I don't know how else to put it. Perhaps she's the result of a lifetime of latent lesbian attraction, perhaps it's being closer to that age myself and seeing such representation. She offers something that Mitch never can — a reflection of a woman of a "certain age". More shocking to me that I'm exploring a ship with someone other than Mitch is the subject herself. Ros is quite the opposite of Mitch, in nearly every way, but that allows me to explore different sides of Val through her.

2024 will be filled with Val & Ros, but that doesn't mean the end for Mitch & Val. Val's canon is still The Star ending, riding off into the sunset with Mitch and the Aldecaldos, plus there's the NOGLY sequel in the simmering stage; plus corpo Val's story is still being written. They'll still be around, just off doing their own thing in the corners of my subconscious, waiting for me to get back to their stories.

If you made it this far, thank you. If you've been a supporter of Mitch & Val, you have my undying love. If you've just joined for my brainrot-induced meltdown, welcome and I hope you enjoy my disaster bisexual. Whatever the case may be, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

May 2024 be filled with light and love for all of us.

I just discovered that Mary Shelley and Kunikida share a birthday (August 30th), which is funny because Asagiri also made them similar in other ways (blond, glasses, abilities related to creating things, have beef with the government, etc.)

I just had a thought for a new term: slashbacks

Definition: Sudden remembrance of ships you've had in the past that you either now see as problematic or worse, severely cringe inducing.

Happy New Year!

Val, Mitch, Ros and me

OC talk but man it's so funny to me how my opinion of Vin has shifted from "he's a shut in" to "actually he's like a stray cat that is only partially acclimated to living indoors and will bolt for freedom as soon as possible but will inevitably come back when he gets hungry"

and I can't help but think that's because he lives with Asphodel now so he's like "ah, home is safe. home is good. home will be there when I'm done romping through dreams and other worlds and chasing whims and visiting the other demons. I can roam as far as I like because I know there's somewhere to come back TO"

which makes me so fuckin soft about these two, who were both designed as fundamentally lonely characters. both conceived of with their own backstories and reasons for isolation written in, both always designed to be exiles from "home"

and that's still part of them now but they found each other! And the more their world expands and the more they get introduced to new characters the less lonely they get and aaahhhhhh

I’m looking at an absolutely unbelievable Will Solace ship and I gotta say i love this fandom so much. i love how some of you just wake up and choose violence and then proceed to set fire to the world in the most splendid way as possible. 

I’m enjoying the chaos like a demon king watching bloodshed unfold.
