I want a post-sunshot golden core reveal that happens because of a body swap
wwx is half-asleep and thinks he's dreaming of what it was like having a core, because that's his core spinning in his lower dantian just like it used to and he feels so good, he's in so little pain, ever since wen qing pulled it out of him, ever since he was dropped in the burial mounds and shattered nearly all the bones in his body, he's been in constant pain--
which is about when jiang cheng in wei wuxian's body slams into the room yelling because WHAT THE FUCK WEI WUXIAN WHERE'S YOUR CORE WHY ARE YOU IN SO MUCH PAIN HOW DO YOU LIVE LIKE THIS
ft. jc frantically trying to control all the resentful energy crawling under wwx's skin bc Jiang Cheng Constantly Has A Lot of Feelings That He Expresses Loudly Instead of Burying Them Like Certain Other People, which really doesn't make controlling all that resentment easy; lots of sibling crying, just so much sibling crying, because they can't exactly leave yanli out of this; jc finally getting wwx to go to the medics by dint of the fact that jc is in his body and can force him to be healed and YOU WERE WALKING AROUND WITH HOW MUCH OF YOUR BODY HELD TOGETHER BY RESENTMENT?! while jyl is making so much soup about this; and of course, jc and wwx having to pretend to be each other (bonus disastrous points if they're about to go to phoenix mountain so they have to pretend to be each other in front of the entire cultivation world, bonus bonus points if (whether or not this occurs at phoenix mountain) jc-in-wwx's-body of course immediately runs into lwj who takes one look at him and is like You Are Not My Beloved)
#the untamed#wei wuixan#jiang cheng#I just...love golden core reveals so much#also I've read several fics w chronic pain!wwx#and 'literally being held together by resentment' wwx#bc resentment doesn't heal but it does keep you from dying! which is...great#anyway#*yakety sax playing in the background*

thank u to my mooties who told me everything about touyas ending I think I can work it into hell fic except I don't know if I want to write that much fic for such a narratively bankrupt series tbh lol
#the hell fic ending i envisioned which ill just say bc who knows when ill continue it#dabi does have his suicidal destructive showdown with shouto but nearly dies for whatever reason#endeavor saves him and dies in the process. because i think he deserves that <3#touya is like dying severely because he. well. he burned himself severely down to his eyeballs#but !!!! mc (who is a mom now lol) joins as part of the first aid crew and uses her quirk (which has returned) to heal him#like ACTUALLY heal him. no more scars!#which is symbolically significant because touya reconciles with her and the remaining members of his family#and accepts that he needs antipsychotic medication 💀#anyway its problematic because i do think mc gets together with touya but not for stockholm syndrome reasons#LMAO#yueshuo#cw.kids

Thinking about some kind of "sleeping beauty" post-canon fix-it, were we to interpret Li Lianhua to be still dying at the end of the special episode.
About how it is the simplest tragedy of all, that Li Lianhua just needed more time: Ten years, and Fang Duobing could cultivate yangzhouman powerful enough to heal him.
There is no xianxia magic to freeze time present in the drama, there are, however, nods to it - body-preserving herbs and techniques to stop the breath for three days. And how ice can freeze a body, freezes everything it touches, at the moment of death.
So I'm thinking of that, and I'm thinking about this:
How Li Xiangyi and Di Feisheng were once at the peak of the martial world, and that it is always cold at the summit of a mountain. I'm thinking about Di Feisheng (who recognises only one equal in the world) carrying Li Lianhua up a mountain along a path scattered with pine needles.
There Li Lianhua stays, out of time, a body frozen.
Perhaps he stays frozen the whole time, Di Feisheng a silent guard - standing sentry for ten more years in seclusion. His hair starts to grey at the temples. But what is another decade, if it means Li Lianhua at his side? He is willing to be the one to take the meandering path this time, if it means their zhiji can continue by their side.
Or perhaps Li Lianhua gasps awake - a split second, once every three days, to simply fall back into his breathless stupor. The presence of Di Feisheng a constant in those snippets of consciousness - 1,216 of them. As fleeting as a grain of sand in an hourglass, but a steady trickle of time nonetheless.
It's a gamble. 1216 days - 3 years and 4 months, a decade of stretched time - for Fang Duobing to cultivate the strength to save Li Lianhua.
(Yet it realistically is a decade of Fang Duobing's life - of intense training and focus, the survival of Li Lianhua on his shoulders a constant anxiety in the turmoil of the jianghu - within which he now forges a name for himself without Li Lianhua or Di Feisheng, while Di Feisheng himself has almost passed into legend, unseen since the letter on the shores of the East Sea.)
But even that borrowed time may not be enough: Li Lianhua must survive like this for three years, when he is already down to practically zero.
..It's internal power that Di Feisheng willingly gives.
Every three days, he gives another second of his life.
To die three years earlier - decades hence - with the satisfaction of decades more with both Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing at his side, is no gamble at all.
Such a small debt is meaningless, for love.
#I JUST#IT'S ABOUT#*screams*#i'm playing fast and loose with how the poison and wuxia biology works okay it's about the SYMBOLISM#and also the poetics of a man dying of a cold toxin encased in ice but surrounded by flowers meant to preserve#flowers of love that hope against all hope about longevity and healing and rebirth after a long winter#the maths burnt my brain more than the fic idea did honestly#nikkiwrites#tumblr fic#fic idea#difanghua#mysterious lotus casebook#di feisheng#fang duobing#li lianhua#feihua#difang#fanghua

Hiya! Just wanted to stop by and share how IMMENSELY re-readable I find endless/cruel summer to be. I think what calls me to come back to it, and think about your story time and time again are the collective decisive narrative moments. Especially, Part 7 where the narrative begins to converge with season four's plot-line.
It's one of crossroads where I cant help but think What if? Where would the characters be if they hadn't been thrown into that supernatural setting and remained in a mundane setting? Do you think Eddie would have discovered Reader was still in town, or would they have co-existed in Hawkins completely removed from each other's orbit with him being none the wiser?
I'm curious if this is something you've given any thought to!
p.s. it's been a delight to read endless summer and slowly watch our beloved dyad become more recognizable to who they develop to be in cruel summer. agh! good stuff!!
Bestie oh my God…. oh mY GOD you’re really gonna make me write another fic CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT???? I gotta sit down… I gotta think about this
#asks#celestialpercy#cruel summer asks#also this is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said#the fact that you all love this fic so much really is a balm to my soul#I wrote this silly little fic to channel my feelings while my dad was dying and you’re just out here helping me heal#truly this is a wonderful community#and I’m so lucky to have you all here with me#the BIGGEST hugs for everyone

ok hear me out: eddie is on the mend but he’s limited to his trailer because he’s about 78% mummy. wayne is back at work because bills pile up even when your nephew is lowkey dying in the hospital. everyone seems to be back to their normal routine and eddie doesn’t want to really mess that for them so…here he is. trying to comfortably sit on the couch outside and get some vitamin d before he actually turns into a vampire.
Eddie is cursing his existence as he shifts for the 56th time when his neighbor cheerfully opens her screen door and starts walking to her small garden in front of her blue and white trailer.
“Hey, Eddie!” She calls out when she notices him sprawled out. “How you doin’, honey?”
Eddie keeps his eyes on the cloudy sky as he replies, “Livin’ the zombie dream!”
Patty tsks softly before crossing the dirt path.
She stood over him with her hands on her hips, “Come on! Up, up!” She wiggles her pastel gloved hands at him.
Eddie eyes her like she was an actual predator, “Uh…” he starts.
Patty rolls her eyes, “Don’t look at me like that, boy. I’ve known you since you were a wobbly-kneed 12 year old.”
Eddie sputters, offended as though he didn’t draw breath in his lungs until he was a leather jacket wearing dungeon master.
Patty sighs and wiggles her fingers at him once more, “I know you’re bored to death, sweetheart, cooped up here by yourself and hurtin’,” she starts softly, “come sit with me while I spruce up my rosemary. You might even learn somethin’” Eddie stares at her for a minute and exhales loudly when her eyebrows raise.
He starts to slowly shift up and he allows Patty to gently take some of his weight as she helps him cross over to her trailer. She sets him up under her shade cover in a lawn chair at her small round table with a small glass of lemonade. She claps her hands softly when he gives her a thumbs up before she turns around, picking up a few things and brings Eddie three small plant pots that were full of soil and three what looked to be slowly dying plants in plastic beginner pots.
Patty hands him some gloves, “I found these little cuties at the store for a quarter! They’re lavender!” She chirps.
Eddie picks up on the plants as he says, “Patty, they look dead.”
Patty waves her hand as she crouches next to her small wooden plant bed, “oh people always think they’re dead. But you give those little babies a little TLC and they’re good as new!”
She racks up brown crusty leaves with her fingers, “can’t tell you how many times I’ve bought plants that people think are dead but blossom just beautifully if they’re taken care of.”
Eddie hms softly. Eddie creates a small hole in the soil as Patty instructs him how to plant the lavender. She gently pats him on the shoulder when he finishes.
She hands Eddie a small elephant shaped watering can and watches as he slowly waters the newly potted plants. Eddie exhales loudly once he sets the watering can back down and leans back in the lawn chair.
“That’s enough physical activity for me, babe.” Patty chuckles as she fusses with her older plants that are sitting seemingly randomly around the outside of her trailer.
“Well, I thank you for your assistance just the same,” she says before she starts into a story of when she was sixteen and pretty. Eddie sips the tart lemonade slowly as she talks and it isn’t long before he dozes off surrounded by potted plants and a chipper old woman.
#Eddie Munson#this is just#I dunno a wholesome I just wanna write about Eddie healing and learning to garden fic#it’s mainly for me but also everyone else if they like that kind of thing#also Patty is me#dying plant savior#this fic has no purpose but to relax me#eventual#steddie#stranger things

What's some of you're favorite military whump tropes?
caretaker and whumpee being on opposite sides is always peak imo.
and i leave the time period ambiguous, but i usually imagine all my military whump to be period-wise anywhere between WWII and the vietnam war. probably bc i like war movies and those are generally when all my favorites are set.
and so a lot of my favorite military whump tropes sorta stem from that, the difference in weapons, technology, and medicine from then to now.
sorry this is kind of nonspecific, most of my favorite military whump tropes are already shown in the military whump prompts i've written, so i'm kinda struggling for something new to say lol.
#asks#military whump#i'm writing a romantic tragedy fic with a military setting but idk if it classifies as whump necessarily#it's pretty cliche. two soldiers from opposing sides are both injured and taken in by the same kind civilian#despite their initial wariness they find themselves growing closer and eventually fall in love#but then their wounds heal and they're forced to return to being enemies#they run into each other on the battlefield again and just can't bring themselves to kill each other#so they try and desert together but are caught and gunned down#and with their dying breaths drag themselves closer so they can die in each other's arms#yadda yadda the world wanted them apart but they are together in death#yadda yadda i enjoyed reading romeo & juliet in 9th grade english

anyway I'm really glad I wrote dabi with a reader with a disability that is also slowly killing her and the attitude of 'I just want to love you for as long as I got' was the point, cause WHOOOOOOOOO BOY y'all are not coping
#siren!mc#loyalty fic#as someone who's also 'slowly dying' from their disability#'slowly dying' can mean A LOOOOOOOOOOOOT of things#like...............idk maybe it's cause of my situation but I did not go into this thinking that touya would NEVER die#you can't do those types of things to your body and not have consequences#like even if touya heals which I think there's good evidence for#touya's always been sickly. he's always had a body in conflict with itself#having a cold-preferenced body with a super hot fire quirk is gonna have health consequences#I never thought touya's happy ending was absent from death I just wanted him to be loved and seen for once#I'm more mad that if these are his final days that he has to spend them in fucking tartarus#with no sunlight and only seeing his family for a couple minutes every day#THAT'S unsatisfying to me. I wanna see them eat these fucking noodles#I honestly think touya will most likely stabilize and live for probably years after the fact#but he's still gonna be burned. he's still gonna have damaged internals.#at the very LEAST he'll have extreme fatigue and need to rest a lot in bed#and that wouldn't be BAD actually. he's still living he's still loved#I think it might be a good idea for some of y'all to reconcile what it means to be fans of a disabled character

Also, bonus question, does what role the character play affect how you feel about their death or if they were to die? For example, a whumper dying vs a whumpee dying or a caretaker dying
#tw death#cw death#death#whump poll#idk im just curious#personally for me it depends#ive been experimenting with whump concepts in my head that involve death#like zombies immortals who die and ressurect themselves#stuff like that#‘came back wrong’ trope etc#of course it still depends to me like. certain ways it plays out are fine but others go outside of my comfort zone#like i was reading a pretty gory whumper turned whumpee fic#and im not saying its bad it was pretty good#just not for me personally#i think it was called red room? or smth like that#the whumpee was torturing their whumper#and then at the end they killed them#i dont remember the names or pronouns bc it squicked me out a little so i think i forgot about it#im not sure how i feel about permanent death in whump fics#like sure ive got zombies and people who can ressurect or vampires who can heal#but i dont think i like to read about humans dying?#idk idk

me realizing while writing this that actually none of these characters really care about anybody dying in specific.
i mean. hina cares about sakura dying. that was a pretty big deal to her. and kyoko cares about fic spoilery things.
but like.
they cared that people in general died. they cared that they were stuck in a murder game. but they weren't really friends with people. none of these people were really friends. (kyoko and makoto, sure. hina and sakura, also sure. taka and mondo, sure.)
but like. nobody cares.
#musings#bandit writes fic#bandit liveblogs danganronpa#(mostly because i want this in that tag even though technically this isn't liveblogging)#dr1 end rewrite fic#like#this is starkly different from dr2#where everyone cared about the first death#the second murder /and the death of the second murderer/ were VERY impactful#everything with nekomaru#mikan tried to heal everybody who was sick!#(...even DESPAIR mikan kept nagito from dying!#honestly he would have been the easiest person for her to kill)#LIKE I JUST#dr1 characters are so SELFISH#(dr1 is still a fantastic game! just. man the dr2 characters)

Normal brain: most of the Blight in Fiona was unnatural and it all going away was an accident that cannot be replicated
The part of my brain that wants Fiona to be the protagonist of everything: Duncan used the knife he stole to cut the corruption from Fiona's body and she healed healthy
#in my head it is a horrible and fraught moment. where Fiona knows she'll be sent on her Calling the moment they're done w her in Weisshaupt#and she's spending her final weeks/months on a punishingly long journey where she has to hide so she doesn't scare ppl she comes across#and she feels AWFUL. her body is betraying her down to her last days#and then she realises. what that all lines up with. and she's not a healer by trade but she knows enough for diagnostics#and she goes to Duncan and she says the knife. it wards against the Blight. use it on me#it takes some arguing but she can't let it all end like this. not after everything.#and it's slow and painful and dreadful but the skin heals back scarred. not dying. scarred#she sleeps peacefully. she feels wretched when she wakes but she sleeps peacefully#and the moment the final drop of that tainted blood leaves her she can Feel it and it feels like deliverance.#she's not free because she never can be but she's not dying anymore and the BABY#and that's the first time duncan saves Alistair's life :)#there's a whole fic in my brain which this forms the crux of and maybe ill write it some day

I'm currently dying of the plague and trying to stick it out at work.... and it's not going well. Here's a sick comfort fic with Loki.
I love him.
I love soft Loki.
Darling.
Loki x reader — sick!fic, established relantionship.
No warnings, just fluff and comfort.
Loki takes care of you when you're sick and makes sure you feel better. He's really soft.
“I feel disgusting,” you say. The words coming out slurred as you struggled to breathe with your congested nose.
“Darling?” Loki asks, concerned. “Can I do anything to help?”
You don't want him to see you like this, in fact, you've been trying to ignore your sickness for a long time.
You feel useless, you don't want to exist, the only acceptable thing to your mind is the thought of going to sleep, the aching pressure around your eyes begs to be closed. You're almost crying from shame.
“Darling,” Loki reaches around you, embracing his arms around your figure, even as you protest, he lifts you up in his arms. “You can't work like this. I know you're sick.” He watches your puffy face, all due to your crying and sneezing.
“No, I'm not, I'm okay,” your voice rough as you lie, fighting not to cough with your pained throat. “I'm not sick, I can do things just fine.”
He still keeps you there, now making sure your face rests against his shoulder as he takes you to the kitchen, already preparing some tea for you two.
“Have you taken some medicine?” He asks and you keep your face hidden, ignoring the question. “You didn't?
“Don't be mad…” You begin.
“Why would I be mad, darling? Why would you not take your meds?”
“I don't wanna be sick, and I didn't know which ones to take, I took a pill but it didn't have any effect so I thought I'd just wait some more.” You're scared you'll sound pathetic to that, but Loki only rubs your back gently.
Loki could sense the effort it took for you to talk, he keeps a concerned look on you as you only rest further to his chest.
This is better, he thinks. She's accepting my help. My love.
Loki had a secret under his sleeve that could work, he could apply his healing magic to your tea — the magic his mother would give to both him and Thor when they got sick, on their younger days, the spell she taught him.
He remembers those days with nostalgic care, he keeps them in the depths of his heart for when his mind needs some kind memories, these parts are specially occupied with you, now. He misses his mother, but he can express the love he received in a new way.
You're shivering under his hands, so he conjures your fluffy, heavy blanket for you, covering you till your neck.
He makes a mental reminder to prepare a warm bath as it's early in the evening, it'd help you feel better, and then he'd make sure you wear some warm clothes so you don't get any fevers.
“Love?” He asks you, your eyes are fighting to stay open but they're moist with tears from the cold.
“Can't breathe,” you whine a bit in pain, closing your eyes and trying to rest but feeling the strong pang in your head.
“I'll make it feel better, love. I'm here,” He tells you, giving you a kiss. He was glad your temperature was normal as he felt it against his skin.
You cringe as his lips touch yours. “Don't kiss me… I'm gross,” your voice goes whinier than you wish for again, which he finds adorable.
“You can't pass me anything, my love. I'm a frost giant, I wouldn't get sick with mortal germs.” He gives you a kiss again.
“But I'm still gross though.”
“I could never find you anything close to gross, when I see you like this, I only wish to nurture you back to health, and make sure you're safe and loved, just as you deserve.” You try to hide your smile against his chest now, he can feel it, and it makes him beam with pride at making you feel a little better. “I hate to see you unwell.”
The tea is ready, he turns your body a little in his arms so you're facing the teapot as he makes two cups for both of you.
He makes sure you see the green sparkles leaving his hands as he puts your tea.
“I hope I'm making this right,” he blushes. “It's the spell our mother would pour on our teas when we were children, Thor thought it was disgusting.”
“Very good, really,” you joke around, smiling at him. “One of the few opinions I have, and little Thor thought it was disgusting.”
Loki gives you a tight lipped smile, but still smiles with his eyes too. He shakes his head.
“I think the magic is flavorless, the problem was just that Thor never really liked tea, and we just discovered a long time after,” he smiles at you. “So, my love, as I know you like this tea, I make sure everything is safe and good to your tastes.” He chuckles and you feel his chest move with the sound.
So you stay there, in his arms, watching his magic with a certain wonder, you'd never tire from this, he always loves the way you look at his magic, the way you look at him. It was never about the magic powers he carries, but the way you're the only person to look at him while he does it and appreciate him, just him, you like it when he does anything, you're the only one to look at him with this clear admiration your eyes always hold for him.
He quietly begins to hum a song for your ears, carrying you to the couch.
You move to take the tea and drink it.
Loki touches your temple, he makes his fingers blue and —consequently, a little colder, just enough for your body to accept, reaching your forehead and keeping it there as you sip your tea.
He notices you're going quieter, just appreciating his acts, not really forcing yourself to speak anymore. He's glad, it makes him happy to see your body sliding slightly closer to him with each sip, probably almost too sleepy to notice.
He conjures you the correct medicine, and you take it. With him kissing your forehead as you do so, like a little reward.
“I'd never shame you for being sick, you know,” He says, breaking the silence of the room. “I never want to see you feeling like you can't tell me again, even as your body starts to feel weak, even if the symptoms are just starting, tell me.”
“I will. I'm sorry.”
“I'm not mad,” he reinforces, quickly booping your nose, gently smiling at you. You stay quiet, he accepts that.
“How about a bath now?” The tea was warm like a balm to your throat.
You don't respond but complain with sounds of disapproval at having to move from the comfort of the couch, from under the cozy blanket.
“You'll feel better,” he comforts you, caressing your skin as he speaks in a low tone so as not to hurt your head. “I promise, just trust me.”
He wraps his strong arms around your legs to push your entire body close to his, gluing you to him as he calmly princess-carries you to the bathroom. Patiently taking the time to hold you as he magically —to be quicker— makes the water warm enough for you and your tired body.
He helps you through the bath, bringing some things to make the bath time more relaxing like different soaps and a pink bath bomb.
“Bath bomb?” You laugh a little, glad the stinging in your head stopped a bit. You point to the product he held.
“It's fun, and I'm not used to these midgardian bath entertainments.” He gives you a kind smile and allows the comfort to surround you two as you take the bath together.
He carefully washes your hair for you, massaging your scalp, hoping to show all his love through his fingertips and gentle caresses.
He moves down to your shoulders, your neck, pressing a bit harder in certain spots, then he slides down to your back with tender care. You hold your breath, and leave some moans of delight as your aching body feels the blessed touch.
“Are you feeling better, love?” He asks, you hum to agree, not wanting to ruin the moment. He muffles a laugh and keeps his loving touches.
Loki runs his hands across the other parts of your body with extra patience and passion, ignoring how sexual it could seem, he knows you're not wishing for it now. He still keeps a longer time washing you, and pressing his hands on your breasts, your chest, your stomach. Brushing among your thighs, anywhere he could show his love and feel your skin close to his.
He kisses your jawline, and moves your head a little to kiss you. The whole time was filled with loving little kisses, some all across your face, some on your lips as he couldn't have enough of your mouth, or enough of you.
The bath makes you feel clean and relaxed, you're allowing yourself to finally succumb to the peaceful affection he's showing you. It's almost overwhelming, you never thought you could have something like this, neither did he.
When the bath's over, Loki exits first to grab a fluffy, dry towel to wrap your body on. You got up and he immediately wrapped you in so you wouldn't face the brutal chilly air of getting out of the bath.
He takes you to the bedroom, your clothes are already on the bed. You tremble to think of removing the towel and facing the cold, but Loki makes sure that doesn't happen.
He puts you on a cozy green sweater, kissing your clothed chest as he's finished. Matching the sweater, he puts on you some warm pajama pants, then proceeds to kiss your stomach.
He puts your socks on you, and gives a kiss to each of your ankles, almost reverently. Looking up at you with wonder, rubbing your legs. You almost weep at the sight, feeling overly emotional.
After he's sure you're warm, he lets you decide on what to do next. You just want to sleep.
He turns off the lights of the house, and dims the one by the bedside table. He reaches for his book, this is one he's been reading without you, he thinks it's a bit too uninteresting to be shared, but now it might fit perfectly for the purpose of getting you to sleep.
You two created a habit of sharing your stories together, you love to sit around while he just reads for you. And whenever you read a story you really like, you get extra giddy to tell him every single detail about it, he loves it when you do so.
He knows how much you love his voice, and in moments like this, in which you need less loud noises, you can't help but pay even more attention to how soft his voice is as he speaks. You could listen to it for days, and thankfully, you can really listen to it all day, for days, he's yours.
He cozies you two under the sheets, the only light being the one by his side, so he can read to you, he makes sure it doesn't bother your eyes.
He holds your body on top of his, keeping a light hold not to pressure your skin, allowing you to rest your head on his neck, unbothered by the little sniffles of the remains of your sickness. He'll make sure to check some more spells later —unharming to humans, to be certain you get even better health soon after you drift off to sleep.
“I love you,” you say. He stiffens a little because it comes unexpectedly, then he relaxes. After all this time, Loki's still unused to these words.
He still gets surprised.
His expression softens and he can only hope you feel all the love radiating off of him.
“I love you, darling. Now rest, you'll feel better as soon as you wake up.”
He begins reading to you from where he stopped, taking pauses a few times to explain some details to you, quietly. You pay attention to the sound of his voice, and his chest moving under you with each word he speaks, until you drift off to a comfortable night of sleep.
This is my apology for not having posted anything this week because I, once again, got sick, so I wrote this! Oh to have a Loki taking care of me.
I hope it can bring some comfort to you all!
