goooood afternoon friends 👋 my hiatus has lasted longer than anticipated, and i’m not fully prepared to start filling up this sideblog’s queue again.

however! i would like to know if there are specific episodes, chapters, scenes, or arcs that you would like to see featured more on this blog. when i return, i’d also like to start including excerpts from the novel, as well as official artwork from all versions of the canon.

feel free to drop your requests in replies to this post, via the askbox (always open!), or carrier pigeon. it’ll find me, don’t worry.

We're having an event at work today. I work at a private school (reception and admin assistant). The event today is for the grandparents of the students.

I am currently fucking surrounded by very rich Boomers and Silents.

This is me and my face right now:

Help me.

[dailyayao]

hello! i'm back 😈

i am revisiting jin guangyao-specific episodes of CQL to take more screenshots so i can restart this blog with some fresh content. are there any specific scenes that y'all would like me to focus on?

let me know!

[dailyayao]

good morning everyone! just consider this post a PSA that dailyayao is taking a short hiatus until about mid-november. i’m a bit swamped with offline things at the moment and so don’t have as much time to trawl my (embarrassingly large) collection of jgy screenshots to keep up with my queue.

thanks for understanding 🤝

Special thanks to @dailyayao for the screencap

i lost my first draft of this post 😭 let's try again.

1. why did you choose your url? because i am weak for puns, and because i am actually su she. weepy yet defensive lestat de lioncourt at the end of s2 voice, i am him, he is me.

2. any sideblogs? if you have them name them and why you have them. a whole whack of them:

@dailyayao which is just daily screenshots and scans of jin guangyao from all versions of the mdzs canon

@yaozongzhupressoffice my neglected satire blog where i answer asks and reblog stuff in-character as yao-zongzhu. occasionally will make references to his entirely heterosexual feelings for his very good friend ouyang-zongzhu in the tags.

@itwasabeautifulwebbing my minthara baenre from baldur's gate 3 simping blog lol. it's also turning into a catch-all for various video game nonsense, tho i'm definitely not as active there as i am here.

@fakerashid same deal as above, just for armand from amc's interview with the vampire.

3. how long have you been on tumblr? i first joined back in 2011 with a different username back in the migration of the dragon age fandom from livejournal to tumblr, and have been kicking around in some form or another ever since.

4. do you have a queue tag? sure do! 'moling queue' because, as i said, i'm weak for puns.

5. why did you start your blog in the first place? originally this blog had a different username, and i started it with the intention of cross-posting very serious horror fiction thinkpieces from a wordpress site. obviously i stopped doing that and have been enjoying myself a lot more here since i stopped taking myself so seriously lmao.

6. why did you choose your icon/pfp? i don't understand the question, that's literally me, su-zongzhu. (please god recognize this is a joke)

7. why did you choose your header? i just think jgy and sms look very powerful and dapper together in that scene. 😌

8. what’s your post with the most notes? some unfortunate ides of march shitpost that broke containment within an hour, i have it muted and hope to never think about it again.

9. how many mutuals do you have? no idea. lots? lots and lots?

10. how many followers do you have? 1271 as of this morning.

11. how many people do you follow? apparently 400 on the nose

12. have you ever made a shitpost? absolutely not, i don't have a sense of humour or believe in laughter.

13. how often do you use tumblr each day? every time my attention wanders pretty much lmfao (despondent)

14. did you have a fight/argument with another blog once? never!!!! 😬

15. how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts? i ignore them.

16. do you like tag games? yes!

17. do you like ask games? "i love them, but i don't like chain asks" <- same hat

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous? "probably ray" <- oh no oh dear 😬 i think if i qualify as tumblr famous (doubt.jpeg) then probably a bunch of my mutuals are, too.

19. do you have a crush on a mutual? i am boring and married so no.

20. what is the last song you listened to? this performance of the famous "flowing water" composition for the guqin.

21. what are you currently watching? nirvana in fire, and it's consumed my soul. mei changsu 👀...... /clenches my fist

22. sweet/ savoury/ spicy? "savory"! <- correct!!!

23. what is your current relationship status? "literally on my way to break up with someone T_T i'll be single in a few hours!!!" <- omg fennel!!??? um, as i said above, i'm married! no plans to divorce mr. sushesaid, he surprised me with flowers and takeout from my favourite indian restaurant yesterday because i was having a rough day.

24. what is your current obsession? jin guangyao. it's still jin guangyao. it's probably going to be jin guangyao this time next year too.

25. what are nine albums/ songs you've been listening to lately?

it's not an album, but basically all of the ensemble and solo performances by zi de guqin studio on youtube.

return to cookie mountain, tv on the radio

the wellermen's album of shanties and other arranged covers

the hades 2 videogame soundtrack

the baldur's gate 3 videogame soundtrack

My workplace is actually letting me schedule and coordinate something. As they should. At last. At long last.

I put on my robe and JGY hat...

Screencap from @dailyayao who sustains me with posts of my poor little meowyao

[thatswhatsushesaid]

quick psa: i've received a handful of lovely messages either via my DMs and askbox here or via discord asking me when i'm going to resume liveblogging my readthrough of tgcf, or when i'll resume the queue over at dailyayao, etc. i'm really glad that you guys enjoy my nonsense so much!! i enjoy it too! but i'm currently dealing with some stressful health-related concerns offline, which means just about all of my more organized fandom nonsense has to be put on the back burner for the moment until my meatsuit is back up to code, as it were.

fingers crossed all will be back to normal before too long 🤞

[thatswhatsushesaid]

Yup, that is fully one of your dailyayao shots in the "big brown eyes" shitpost. It's my go-to source for when I need to make a JGY meme, so thank you for all your hard work posting pictures of our favorite little guy.

i am so glad that sideblog is giving the jgy enjoyers in this fandom what they need 🥹 i'll probably boot it back up again in the new year and put out another call for screencaps or scans of the manhua, i sadly just don't have the time to keep it going right now.

this is my favourite tag addition to today's unexpectedly poppin' @dailyayao screenshot

i wish i had a good answer for you @lansplaining but idk i just work here /points at my brain

#cql: episode 41#listen. all i am saying#is that if you subject someone to this 👆👆👆 type of degredation and mistreatment for long enough#you really should not be surprised when one day#he fucking snaps#and runs you through with the sword of your enemy#and looks pleased as punch while doing it#justifiable homicide imo (via @dailyayao aka my OG tags)

#big big big fan of how CQL (and the donghua too IIRC) show us firsthand that the captain fucking sucks#so the question isn’t ‘is MY lying about his grievances?’ but ‘was homicide a justified response to those grievances?’#(answer is a resounding YES from me. annihilate him bb 💛) (via @poorlittleyaoyao)
