Love Between Fairy and Devil spoilers.

So I just re-watched Episodes 28-32 (because I guess I like getting my heart stabbed multiple times by a searing white-hot knife) and realized…

1. The three days when XLH was in the Fuju cave were after DFQC received the nine Bone-eating Spikes, so you’re tell me there were three nights when our Moon Supreme DFQC was experiencing BOTH the Fuju Cave torture AND the nine spikes piercing his organs/ants eating his flesh/bones being cut off…SIMULTANEOUSLY??? How is this man still alive/functioning??? LET THE MAN HAVE HIS WOMAN because if THIS doesn’t earn the right then literally NOTHING does

2. Omg… *cries* so Orchid dissolves from his arms when she dies from the sword, right? But then *sob* in his dream when he finally admits to himself that he knew it was a dream and tells his dream-Orchid that he has to leave, his dream-Orchid dissolves in his arms, too… *heaving* He created the dream to experience happiness with her, but instead, it’s like he loses her TWICE *hysterical wailing* why did he do that to himself 😭😭😭 why is this so effing sadddd 😫

I’ll probably post about some more heartache later. 💔❤️‍🩹

if you're still boiling a character as complex as alistair down to anything along the lines of: himbo, idiot, soft baby without an idea of his own, haha funny cheese man i'm straight up burning your house down with lasers and sending you directly to hell.

if you genuinely believe that man is stupid, all you're doing is admitting that you yourself cannot see beyond the incredibly transparent veil he wants to put over your eyes.

what he is is insecure, and he wants you to think he's stupid so that he doesn't have to live up to expectations he fears he won't meet. shortly after meeting him you can call him out on using humor to deflect and make himself smaller and he ADMITS IT.

he repeatedly shows you just how intelligent he is and how aware of the ways of the world he is. his history knowledge, his understanding of the chantry and its control of templars and mages that goes far beyond nearly anyone else we as the player speak with, his emotional intelligence when it comes to understanding others' intentions and needs... and this is just a thoughtless little post with quick examples i conjured up in five minutes! i'm not even doing a deep dive here! how do so many people miss all of this?

this is not advanced reading of subtext, it's incredibly simple and i'm completely unsure how people don't understand this about him.

he's such a great character for so many reasons - his flaws being some of those reasons - but a lack of intelligence is simply not one of those flaws no matter how you spin it.

Nothing gave me more whiplash IN MY LIFE than going from acowar to acofas.

Remember when Feyre closed the chapter on her relationship with Tamlin and wished him well? Coz the Inner Circle sure keeps forgetting.

this person has me blocked, which is something i used to genuinely lament because occasionally i'd see bits of their very thoughtful commentary floating across my dash, and i'd find myself sighing sadly over what other gems of wisdom i was missing out on by not having access to their blog. i'd even lament about it via dms to some of my pals who did still have access to this person's blog. what interesting discussions must have been happening beyond that "???" "this is no one" "uh, who??" opaque door that tumblr always presented to me whenever i clicked on this person's username? would i ever know?

a friend this morning: want to see a bad take to get mad at

me: obviously yes

anyway as it turns out, it looks like i'm missing out on exactly nothing, actually, so that's a huge relief

more seriously, recalling the insightful commentary that i have seen this person reblog in the past when it has come across my dash, i am frankly in awe of this one, because it is so profoundly disconnected from reality and how people experience stories. like i'm not even sure where to start with peeling back all of the wrongness layers at work here because i haven't taken my adhd meds yet this morning, but the primordial stupidity at this take's core (coming from someone who is clearly smart, ftr, i am targeting the stupidity of the concept, not the person) has made me genuinely angry. it's not even just about applying this framework to mdzs, though of course it is principally about that because this book DOES actually place class front and centre at multiple points in the narrative. it's the idea that we just shouldn't be having conversations about classism, or sexism, or [x]-ism, in the romance genre, because don't we realize the point is the romance, actually?? these other things clearly don't matter and aren't worth talking about??? and this mindset is so utterly foreign to me because at no point have i ever felt compelled to stop myself from thinking thoughts about a book because "oh, but this is genre fiction, i need to turn my brain off to read and enjoy this, i forgot." or "this thought is not appropriate because genre fiction, i'd better stop thinking it before i ruin the story."

like. i am deeply, deeply sorry for this person, actually, that they are not picking up on precisely what mxtx is putting down in the text, especially considering mxtx has explicitly explored themes of class in at least two of her novels (i'll get back to you on including svsss once i've read it). but also, a critique of class in the jianghu, or how mxtx has written her female characters, is entirely as valid use of fandom time and energy as writing one more definitely original and not remotely repetitive thinkpiece on the power of wangx!an's morally good love to overcome all obstacles (not saying OP wrote any of these, just that there ARE a bunch of them out there).

like. why do you want to simplify the experience of reading and thinking and talking about these books? why do you want to push for more boring analysis of stories? why are you using your platform to encourage this? i'm so mad about it actually. people listen to you, and this is what you're encouraging them to do: think less.

Resident evil fans going "I love evil women" when it's Lady Dimitrescu because she's sexualised by the fandom but hating Mia with completely unwarranted vitriol when she's a human who made Mistakes. Do I need to keep saying it.

Me: I joke about writing the same McCoy centric story over and over again in different ways

Me: and like. I love doing it and imma keep doing it because it makes me happy.

Me: but also. I do sometimes wonder if it's like. A little Much.

Me: like maybe I should branch out or something

Me: [reads another fundamental and extremely insulting misread of McCoy's character by someone who is clearly making a Choice to cast McCoy as the villain, because they have to get him out of the way of spirk, because they're too???? idk immature??? to realize that even when you're in a relationship with one person, other ppl can and SHOULD still be important to you]

Me: lmao I hope I AM too much actually!!!! I hope it is 100% obnoxious how much I love that doctor!!!!! Time to write more versions of the same story of McCoy being forced to realize that he is loved and cared for!!!!!!

Me: I KNOW MY NICHE AND IMMA DIE IN THAT NICHE, THANKS

Today I remembered the most autistic asexual thing I have ever done. 

So I went to 4 different primary schools in 7 years. And on my first day at number 4 I found out that boy bands were a Big Deal at this school among the 11 year old girls (this was the late 90s/ early 00s). Because I got asked "which boy band do you like?" and "which member do you have a crush on?". 

And I said "I don't know" and "no one." This was very much the Wrong Thing to say to these girls and long story short, I had no friends at that primary school. 

But luckily, because my family was moving yet again, I would not be going to high school with these people (children start high school at 12 in my country). So I could do Research. I was good at Research!

So I borrowed one of my brothers CDs (why he had a boy band one I don't know) and listened to the whole thing. (Which band was it? No clue, it was the late 90s/early 00s they were all the same pick one). And I decided that I Liked that band. I picked a Favourite Song and memorised at. 

And I looked at the little flyleaf inside the CD and memorised all their names. Then I picked one to Have A Crush On. And I could totally say I definitely Had A Crush on someone famous when I was asked. 

And off I went to high school prepared for any boy band or crush related questions!

But don't worry, the kids at high school found a whole bunch of other things to bully me about that we're in no way related to boy bands.
