I simply think this fandom doesn't give Wei Wuxian enough credit for the various ways in which he saved Lan Wangji
#mdzs#mo dao zu shi#wangxian#idk man- i just see a lot of “Lan Wangji has always been protecting Wei Wuxian” posts and its like...#I mean... Lan Wangji has always certainly been trying to protect Wei Wuxian#it took him a long time to figure how to successfully do that though#rereading the books rn and noticing theres a lot of instances that could be read as lwj being frustrated over his inability to protect wwx#like he seemed ready to cry when wwx went missing for a while and then came back with the cursed leg#lwj has always been great at protecting wwx from physical threats (ex: waterborn abyss) but had no idea how to protect him from himself#meanwhile wwx has always been instictually good at saving lwj from both#like I'm 100% lwj would've become like Jiang Cheng if wwx hadn't snapped him out of the blindly following authority thing#and also like... 15 y/o lwj wasnt happy with his life. he was lonely and stressed and literally signing up to be flogged whenever he goofed#wwx is who allowed lwj to grow up by showing him what it was like to actually be a kid (shown in story whenever lwj gets drunk)#he led lwj to having a more flexible mindset. and it both let lwj relax and set lwj up to be a better parent#looking into lwj's dynamic with the juniors- he lets them break a fuck ton of the petty rules and encourages them to question authority#he also teaches them to not be married to any one meathod of problem solving#wwx is also able to save lwj from his own stubbornness#ex: carrying lwj when he broke his leg. getting lwj to cough up bad blood. getting lwj to keep the rabbits#wwx also tends to give lwj the words he has trouble saying himself. helps him communicate#wwx also protects lwj in fights a lot but thats narratively less important#except the various times wwx puts himself in danger to help lwj. those times are what made it so lwj could never move on from wwx#like with the cave incident#or when wwx helped surpress the arm instead of using the chaos to escape cloud recesses#tldr i guess: i think this fandom tends to treat lwj being the best like its natural to him when really wwx accidentaly rewired his brain#I'm looking directly at fanfic writers who act like the Lans would've treated wwx better than the Jiangs#lwj had to do so much work and self reflection post meeting wwx to be the way he is. he is not the sole product of the Lan teachings

guy building his character for a campaign i've promised to run but haven't even started prepping yet: upset that i can't make a straight up necromancy cleric like in bg3
me, who knows damn well there's not a necromancy domain in bg3 either: what do you mean?
guy who btw is our group's current dm: well in bg3 at level 3 you can choose different paths and one of them gives you Turn Undead and Toll the Dead
me trying to figure out how this guy came to the conclusion that those aren't things you get in 5e: well all clerics get Turn Undead and Toll the Dead is like THEE cleric cantrip so you definitely can do that
guy who i'm not entirely sure can read actually: Toll the Dead isn't a cleric spell
me strongly considering ghosting this conversation: dude I literally gave you a link to the cleric class that has toll the dead listed right there
guy somehow not getting it: in bg3 I was able to do Death domain
me: https://dnd5e.wikidot.com/cleric:death

if 9&10 were "dont wander off", and 11&12 were "the doctor lies", 13s rule #1 is "dont question me"
"have we not had a good time together" shes pointing yaz to the rule that yaz very well knows is there: we can travel if you dont ask me any difficult questions. yaz knows this is the rule - "because you ask too many questions", "this team structure isnt flat" - but she also was the one to invite the doctor into her home so im pretty sure she also knows shes not gonna kicked out that easily. she has some leeway. which she has been using between revolution and flux, which is why the doctor reminds her of the rules
i dont think she'd kick her out though. she wouldnt. i think it's just that the more you break the rule, the more unpleasant she becomes to be around, and eventually youre gonna walk out on your own. she doesnt want you to, she'd rather you stay and dont ask questions. but if youre gonna try to ask questions anyway, i think thats whats gonna happen
and yaz must think so too. because she does back off. because she doesnt want that to happen either. and it does anyway
#dont question me/dont challenge me. questions are the sore spot but the challenge is one she says explicitly once#because you see this in how she is with other people too. dont try her patience. dont act like shes smaller. dont challenge her or Die#based on the giggle - 'i thought i was clever' 'what do i say?! because im always sooo certain' - i dont think 14 is like this#also based on the expressions of affection#hes not that......reactive. to this. specific thing#so i wonder if it runs over to 15#he seems chill. i think? he seems fairly chill. but also i think we've so far only seen him mostly in control of things#faced with the maestro temporarily not entirely in control hes Notably Less Chill#but still bigger picture. hes mostly in control of things right now i think#or uhhhh based on how eager he seems to get out of the role of doctor#hmmmmm#13 didnt want it but like. was stuck with it i think#didnt want it but nobody else was gonna do it. thats why 12 regenerated#15 comes out 14 Literally Quitting#he doesnt want it and hes decided hes not stuck with it. maybe#none of this is true btw im just saying words recreationally#like those 13 moments are super cherrypicked and i havent rewatched in forever so#dont believe me gfkjghgjh#this is based more on how i write them than what ive seen basically#anyway in terms of 14/yaz i think it takes yaz a while to figure out how to deal with 14 Not being like this#bc she got soooo practiced at handling 13. most of which was abt like not tripping this rule too much#she'd keep it up with 14 and he'd just do stuff that like breaks the rule from his side and yaz wouldnt have any idea how to deal with it#he'd show her hes chilled out a bit. about this. over and over and it'd still take her moooooonthssssssss to start relaxing#just muscle memory at this point. doesnt help that shes also like this#i wonder if 14 - in a sort of compelte reversal - wants to be told what to do and how to do and#seeks out situations where someone else knows more than him so he can sit down and say 'teach me'#i think thats what he does. about all the human stuff. hes like teach me. all of it. show me how to do this

something else hawk should've been allowed to be mad about: that silver bullet punch that kenny did on him
#kenny was mad at robby so he stopped hawk from breathing just your average ck episode#(giving very “i was bored so i ruined lunch” heheh)#this is also just a problem i have with cobra kai's teachings#like in the real world in a real fight where there are no rules go crazy go stupid#fight dirty for all i care especially if you're fighting for your life#but this is an ORGANIZED match between CHILDREN#why are we letting a CHILD use such a dangerous move on his opponent who is just an older child ???#and everyone watched and did nothing#like gunther i know you saw that shit#don't play with me#this is how i know that i'm not well because me personally i'm sweeping kenny's leg and kicking at him with the strength i have left#and again never once did i hear an apology OR an acknowledgement of the harm caused#as someone who has been unable to breathe properly a couple of times in my life#it is such a scary experience#0/10 do not recommend#and not only did the show quickly move on from kenny being taught such a dangerous skill that causes that and using it TWICE#it moved on from how hawk was feeling about the whole thing almost immediately#this wasn't an instance of 'he fell so hard he knocked the wind of himself' someone purposely stopped his breath intake for a moment#and then mocked him for being unable to get up afterwards#i'm ofc also mad at terry for this but i don't think any of the characters know that he was the one who taught kenny the move#cobra kai#eli moskowitz#hawk cobra kai#kenny payne

xiaochen, to me, is like. li tianchen is building a house of cards. liu xiao tells him that card houses are fragile so you have to be strong enough to withstand the event of them falling eventually. but li tianchen's card house hasn't fallen yet! so li tianchen just keeps building the house of cards and puts his identity into being a really good builder of card houses. liu xiao maybe even gives him more cards and compliments his house making skills. and it's like. "wouldn't it be fun to topple it later? just pull out one card, and woosh! it's all gone in a second. doesn't that sound fun?" and tbh li tianchen would (and has) enjoy(ed) toppling card houses, but only if it's other people's card houses. this one though? he just built this card house after the last one fell apart and he's gonna be inconsolably upset if this one falls apart too. and it does fall apart — spectacularly, even, that all the cards get blown away by the wind and li tianchen doesn't have any cards anymore to build a new card house. maybe he doesn't want to build a card house anymore. can't be a good card house builder without cards.
so liu xiao offers to play a new game with him. remember when your card house fell apart, tianchen? there are other games like that, games we can play that don't need cards. we can play dominoes. we can play jenga. half the fun is watching something you construct fall apart, you know? here, I'll teach you how to play. do you want to play?
and li tianchen is like. well I don't have cards anymore. I'll probably suck at playing other games, but it'd be nice to play games with someone else. what else is there to do? liu xiao gave him cards earlier, so he might as well see what other games he plays.
liu xiao asks him if he wants to play cards and li tianchen tells him nah, liu xiao should choose what they play. liu xiao smiles and brings out the jenga set.
li tianchen doesn't know how to play jenga but he learns quickly. he misses his cards but it's fun taking turns playing jenga with liu xiao. they're constructing something together! li tianchen isn't playing alone. that's nice. liu xiao wants to play games. li tianchen is good at playing a game; maybe he can be good at playing more than one game.
then liu xiao tells him that this jenga tower will fall too. that's all part of the game. li tianchen understands this. it'd be less upsetting if li tianchen is the one who takes it apart instead, so it's on his own terms, instead of waiting for someone else to topple it. but is it really on his own terms if liu xiao was the one who suggested playing jenga in the first place?
maybe soon liu xiao will topple the jenga tower they built together. but it hasn't happened yet! when (not if) it does happen, well, li tianchen has gotten good at playing games now. so liu xiao will keep playing with him, right? liu xiao likes games, and li tianchen is a good player. and good players aren't afraid of game overs anymore. it's all part of the game.

I think of so many stupid shenanigans between Wriothesley and his daughters in the Addison Lee verse. They tell Wriothesley crazy shit all the time, their daddy-daughter secrets, and it drives Neuvillette nuts that Wriothesley won't snitch.
Sigewinne, whispering into his ear: Today at school I punched a boy because he was being mean. I waited until it was recess, and made sure that no one was watching, and I punched him. Everyone knows he is a liar, so noooo one believed him when he cried about it. And Sigewinne is aaaalways a superstar so Mr Vautrin didn't suspect a thing !
Wriothesley, mildly concerned: Uh huh.
Sigewinne: Papa would say Sigewinne has to be nice to everyone, but, Sigewinne thinks bullies need to get punched sometimes, b'cos, b'cos otherwise, they think everyone is just gonna let them be mean
Wriothesley: Y'know what. That's fair
#They tend to play with him more than Neuvillette because he can match their energies#but Neuvillette usually is who they'd run to when they#need calmness and comfort#at night. when they're all asleep. Neuv would pin his husband down and be like. Tell me. Tell me the secrets.#and Wriothesley is like Noooooooo snitches get stitches Neuv#obviously if it's serious he'd let him know. but. if Carole comes up to him and is like daddy I secretly put a roach in Mr Vautrin's lunch#he'd be like. Did he think it was yummy?#and Carole is like aheeheeehee noooo don't be silly !! It was a prank and the roach was plastic so he can't eat it anyway#ingital#also vautrin teaches all 3 of their kids#for like. first grade#so he's basically a family friend at this point#I also have this stupid#scene in my head. the Swear Jar. I imagine like swear words in the Wriollette household is a hotly debated topic. because Daddy say it#aaaaaall the time. And Wriothesley doesn't believe in banning words. He explains it to the kids when they ask but he's like. You can be#just as hurtful. if not more. with words that are not considered 'bad'. You can still be mean without saying fuck. The point is to be nice#and daddy is nice isn't he. even if he says bad words sometimes.#but neuvillette is like No. No Bad Words. It is considered socially inappropriate for your age group. When you are older#you can decide if you want to use them. however. there are some rules in the classroom and I do not want you girls to get into trouble.#if you get into the habit of cursing like your dad. it'd be hard to keep away from them when you are in class. and bad words frighten papa#so. I ask that you ladies do not use them.#but like I don't think. they'd Punish the kids. the swear jar isn't even like. a punishment. it is a swear tax. every time you say bad word#you have to pay the swear tax. and whatever's in the jar gets taken out for ice cream or whatever to make papa feel better#[ this is how wriothesley explain it ]#and it leads to stuff like. The girls being considerate to Neuvillette firstly (he isn't actually all that bothered he's more scared#of the social repercussions for the girls. But they think he's Scared Of All Bad Words)#so they'd be like. papa cover your ears. I am going to say frightening words. FUCK YOU TIMMY. and then they pay their swear tax#and when Wriothesley curse in front of Neuvillette. the girls are like stop it. you will frighten papa. pay the swear tax NOW#we must acquire the icecream for papa. lest he gets so frightened he runs away forever. and wriothesley is like oh shit yeah that'd be bad#and theyre like DADDY. STOP IT

The best part about currently being obsessed with a weird little dude that i made up is I get to throw him into different situations
Like. Especially because of the whole prince's special knight thing. I can either slap Cameron into a situation all on his own and see where that goes or put him And henrick into situations and rate them both around
If cam is out on his own, it means he doesn't have a hen to keep him balanced so he will either spiral or find someone to fill that position of endless devotion. If they are both there then hen will gently guide him into being a presentable human person rather than rhe anger and spite fuelled weapon he will be otherwise. If hen isn't there but he finds someone for counter-balance, how do they handle it? Are they good natured and patient enough to convince him of his worth as a person? Will they fail in either of those things? How would that go down? Or would they encourage him and go on a spree together?
#if stardew its both of them. hen is the main farmer cam is a farm hand#cam is still magic and the wizard teaches him how to harness it. they dont tell anyone theyre together but do just have the one bed#rotated him in rvb and decided hed be a freelancer. makes it out alive bc hes on a mission when everything goes down.#if he has an ai its upsilon. ups acts as his hen#put him in shield hero in place of the mc once because i thought itd be funny for hin to just beat people up to grt oast the weapon rules#and also bc that show could have been so interesting if not for deciding slavery is fine actually.#hes solo there but doesnt go crazy the same way the mc did bc he literally doesnt care if people like him#hes here to do a job so he does it. and also he maybe kills the slave trade guy and threatens people into removing the slave marks#throws money at all the freed people and peaces out#bodyguard/caretaker au where hen's family is just super rich in a maybe mafia kind of way and hen is super chronically ill#cam sees a job listing that requires fairly minimal experience just some muscle and the ability to give injectible meds#(hen is scares of needles and cant do it himself)#cam ends up with a car a knife and a gun alongside a room in hens apartment (and eventually a boyfriend)#OH ALSO in the shield hero one cam has his dragon ears and horns and hes just like. wow thats kinda gender actually.#cam is only cis because he never learned that xenogenders and therians exist#in universes where he spends more time online he quietly adds those to his vocab in his head and never tells people#(those universes are also usually the ones where he is a normal human man rather than secretly a dragon)

Pick a blorbo vibe!
In the Forsaken AU, Zelda and Gerudo Link are conspiring how to get Mystery Link to reappear after vanishing in the Lost Woods (Zel: Ok, so what we need is a damsel in distress--you'll do just nicely // Gan: I AM NOT PRETENDING TO BE A DAMSEL). They're whispering heatedly in Zelda's fancy royal tent (that Gerudo Link has to assemble for her) just outside the Lost Woods.
In Breath of the Sky, Cloud and Zel are slowly making their way over to the picnic that Princess and Champion set up for everyone. Champ is nervously eating all the food. Mipha is hovering in the distance hoping everything is ok. It's sunny and warm and pleasant outside, at least, despite all the drama.
In the Imprisoning War Era, Hemisi and Link snuck out of the castle while he's still sick because Link wants to spend time with Hemisi and she 100% plans to kidnap him to the desert (or at least to the Gerudo designated quarters so he can be taken care of until he gets better). Ganondorf is exasperated. Impa is too. Hemisi and Link look like drowned cats because it's pouring outside and they definitely were not crawling across the walls and roof of the castle haha nope!
In the Wild Spirit AU, Abel, Link, and Lyra are getting ready to fight Calamity Ganon. Abel hears his boy's voice again for hte first time, but there's a giant malice monster to deal with, worry about that later, Abel! The castle is dark and ominous and cold, it's starting to storm outside, it's time to get to business!
In a Hyrule fresh from the Calamity, Abel and Tilieth are starting to make plans for the next part of their journey. Abel definitely keeps waking Link up simply because he can, because he needs to after going to Blatchery Plain, and Til has to eventually get on his case about letting their poor son sleep. It's daybreak in Kakariko, it's time to hit the road again.
In Zora's Domain, a little four-year-old is about to explore the great world around him and his father will absolutely have a heart attack over it. But Link's ready to have an adventure!
In the Dad Squad, the dads are having an intense game of rummy and literally nobody can get the rules right. Abel's pretty sure Rusl's cheating, Rusl can't be cheating because Abel's playing it wrong, and Fierce just wings it while also wondering what the purpose of this entire ordeal is (this doesn't seem very conducive to strategy building, but perhaps it's for little immature mortal minds and the adults just do it to keep up the skills they learned as boys).
In LU in Healthcare, Sky's napping and therefore misses Wind frantically texting him about Warriors, but the rain is so gentle on the roof, the forest is quiet, and he's exhausted. Time, however, gets the messages before going into surgery, and soon it'll be time to pick up the pieces.

The EK military feels so disconnected and unsociable towards their own people, despite coming from relatively warm and unorthodox communities (ie. Haru's village, Omashu) so I had an little theory that Ba Sing Se is a cause for this, and that they've been instilling their values ie. nationalism, xenophobia, classism and authoritarianism by spreading their influence throughout the EK military and governments.
There's no denying the sort of influence BSS has over other city-states and villages. The mail is under military control and was shown being taken advantage of, as important letters to the Gaang were intercepted by Long Feng. We also see in the show a map of Ba Sing Se's military forces sent to every major fortress in the EK.
Tumblr media
These fortresses also double as training camps, and it's established by the games that it's common to send EK children to these camps once they're old enough. The only training camp we see in show is the fortress under General Fong's command and we all know how he is:
Tumblr media
In the games, the Consul's background is unknown but his character was written like a precursor to Long Feng, with similarities such as "maintaining" EK traditions as an excuse for discrimination, manipulating the king as an advisor, secretly controlling the guards of the city, and ultimately selling their kingdom out over their obsession for power. My first impression of the Consul was that he was an envoy sent from Ba Sing Se, as a method to control other governments, and he's just a particular case that went off the rails. While General Fong and the Consul have unknown origins and are unconfirmed to be associated with Ba Sing Se, their values and actions align with Long Feng's policies.
Because of the way the EK governments and military are set up during the war, the result is EK children being indoctrinated by Ba Sing Se's styled nationalism, xenophobia, classism, etc, and them returning to their hometowns only to become detached and persecuting towards the people they were supposed to protect.
