Xiao Zhan aka "Wide-Eyed, Illegally Cute"

(Chinese Idol Our Song, 2019)

I came for Xiao Zhan and stayed for Ayunga (turned out Liu Yuning was also in the package!)

YouTube brought me the 1st season of Our Song and it's been such a wild ride! First of all, Xiao Zhan is such a KITTEN *heart eyes* I still haven't watched the Untamed (don't throw anything at me please, ahah) because I'm relatively new to cdrama and I'm exploring some other rabbit holes for now, but I can say that his personality is golden. He's such a cutie pie! With a very lovely, beautiful, and straightforward voice. He paired up with a very cool and funny lady that's like his older sister and they had some outstanding performances together. BUT!

There is also this extremely handsome former ballet dancer/present musical singer Ayunga (he's from Inner Mongolia) who looks like an actor celebrity with an absolutely amazing opera-esque voice. The character is also there! The show is very humorous and lively, and the way everyone jokes around is absolutely precious (thanks for the eng subs to whoever translated it). Seriously, I would've watched it for all the cute bickering only, but the music was also there XD. Because of Ayunga's background, you will hear some musicals and some English songs as well (the 80s' hits medley was so much fun!).

Unsurprisingly, both young Chinese idols and established senior singers have amazing voices, so listening to the songs is pure delight, just melodically and musically, it's perfection even if you don't know the language. And all the bickering that's happening between the contestants is just too hilarious. Then there are other teams where you will find Liu Yuning and Zhou Shen, a guy with a very high soprano voice, so there's a lot of versatility. And everyone's personalities are very vibrant.

But I loved when Ayunga's group A competed with the group B whose leader was super short (and Ayunga is super tall) they had these cute and funny moments together (their hug was something straight out of a cdrama, with the hilarious height difference XD). When you become invested in the singers' personalities - it's such a joy to watch this show.

And not Liu Yuning asking "Xiao Zhan Lao Shi" what he has to say about his performance because "everyone wants to hear that" ahah XD The man is the king of fan service, for real))) Liu Yuning is amazing in this show as well, but it's from 2019 and it's good to see that he's come a long way, getting more acknowledged for his talents. He's beyond humble.

Anyway, here's a playlist of the show on YouTube, it has 8 out of 14 eps, mostly subbed, the rest needs to be fished out on Dailymotion. But it's worth it! You will laugh a lot and the music is beautiful, too.

Courting Chaos (to Balance)

A KlarionxDanny brain worm that has spawned

Tim Drake, aka Red Robin gets kidnapped suddenly and very randomly by Klarion in the middle of a JL and others meeting.

Leaving with a

"I'LL RETURN HIM WHEN HES NO LONGER USEFUL JUSTICE LOSERS!"

And fire and chaos in his wake.

While the JL, and others scramble to figure out what Klarion has planned this time, Tim manages to break free of whatever Klarion had used to kidnap him only to find himself on a couch and Klarion nervously petting Teekl on his lap while also sitting in a chair across from him.

When Tim goes to demand to know why Klarion kidnapped him Klarion finally speaks.

"Okay, I wanna strike a deal. I won't bug you or your little Young Just US buddies if you help me ask someone out..."

"...What the fuck Klarion?" Was Tim's only response.

-x-x-

So it turns out, every so often the three main entities and actual factions of Order, Chaos, and Balance get together to well discuss things happening in certain Realms, worlds, and timelines. Basicly to touch base, see where everyone was at. Etc etc.

Order was Order. Chaos was Chaos.

Very simple.

Both could be bad. To much order caused restraint and could snuff out growth. To much Chaos could get out of hand and cause ruin.

Both could be good. Order help stabilizes worlds and builds their future. Chaos allowed creativity to roam and brought forth wonderful things.

And Balance.

Well Balance was the very scales that kept both sides in check. They were neutral grounds. The ones that normally oversaw the meetings as well. And despite their low numbers they held powerful entities that more than made up for it.

Balance did their best to keep things in check, sure they do have their own preference sometimes and allowed the scales to tip a tiny bit but always corrected it later if it tips to much.

It was at this meeting, a meeting even Klarion knew better than to do anything too chaotic, pranks were fine but nothing too much, and had been chatting with a newcomer to the side of Chaos (Danielle, call me Ellie, Phantom. She did some heroing on the side but liked causing chaos in her wake to do so, he liked her so far though.) When the bells for the side of Balance to appear announced them.

Ellie had smiled brightly and said her brother was coming with his mentor, turns out her brother was apart of the Balance group which meant that he was strong, strong enough to need a mentor.

He watched as the members of Balance walked, teleported, flew, and other means into the meeting halls. And then froze when his eyes caught sight of him.

Floating next to a blue skined being that was switching ages was a beautiful otherworldly person.

Snow white hair that wisped upwards oh so softly. Glowing green eyes that were cat-like with their piercing glance. A galaxy cloak hanged around his shoulders and seemed to shift with each movement. Star like freckles decorated his face and seemed to glow a soft bluish white. A crown made of ice and aurora lights floated above his head as well.

All in all Klarion couldn't keep his eyes off of the being at all. He nearly spat his water out when Ellie commented that was her brother Danny, or rather.

High King of the Infinite Realms, Daniel 'Danny' Phantom. The Great One. Defeater of the Tyrant King. The Halfa. The Peaceful End. The Balance of the Undead. (And his mentor was the Ghost of Time itself. THE very Keeper of Time, Kronos original form himself.)

Klarion honestly didn't know what to think or rather what emotions he was feeling when he spotted Danny, nor why his face felt so hot and red when the young man looked over at them and smiled. (He was smiling at Ellie but Klarion for some reason hoped it was for him as well)

It wasn't until halfway in the meeting when a rather ingenious prank that Klarion, Ellie, and a few others had set up went off... thing was it strong enough that it had hit Danny's side of the meeting and had hit him.

Now, again pranks were okay but only after the meetings. It was one of the few rules many, even those in Chaos, took seriously because once it was done and over they could go do their things. So for it to happen in the middle of a meeting means someone set their time on the prank wrong and add the fact it hit a person on the Balance side...

Yeah not good.

Only...

Only instead of getting angry, even Clockwork who was seated next to Danny was chuckling, Danny threw his head back and laughed about it. And his laugh... was very cute.

And before he knew it, Klarion had already fallen.

-x-x-

"So yeah.... Since you have a boyfriend and know how to date in this modern age, I need your advice."

".... Klarion just because I'm dating Bernard doesn't mean I know how I did it..."

"Bernard? I thought you were dating that one Supes?"

Even leaving aside the obvious ship bait here, this is one of the best examples of character comedy Hoyo has posted in a long time.

The fact that Jade sends Aventurine a bunch of rocks just knowing that his incredible luck will allow him to suss out, without even cutting the stones, exactly which ones are worth processing is funny as hell.

The fact that Aventurine is actually able to answer and picks out the rocks that contain high value jade without hesitation is absolutely hilarious.

Bro is out here using his blessing from a goddess to play blind-box prize games. This is like finding out X-Men's Professor X uses his telepathy to order pizza.

Do you think people ever call Aventurine like "Hey man, is my new relationship going to work out?"

And Aventurine's just over here as the divination champion of Pier Point going "Signs point to no, friend. The vibes are just rancid. Abandon ship ASAP."

And then he trips over his catcake and eats shit because he didn't see it coming.

Don't forget! ☀️

It is incredibly uncomfortable.

[momentomori24]

I can't get over how Shadow needed Rouge bribing him with a fucking spaceship to reluctantly attend Sonic's birthday party, but for Amy's birthday he not only went willingly but got all decked out in a costume, played along with the murder mystery game, went through lengths to get her tickets to her favourite band as a surprise present and agreed to go to the concert with her afterwards even tho he doesn't listen to their music to boot. Either Amy is a different kind of special or Sonic is just a different kind of "not worth it" lmao

Ok, this blew up more than expected so while y'all are here please consider helping out these guys!

The Dungeon Meshi crew 'leap' into action!

[artistmarchalius]

I wanted to design my own female Alastor for funsies and put her in clothes she might have worn in the mid 1930s. Once I’d drawn one outfit it was hard to stop. Of course I had to turn them into a catalog page!
