i got the husky family for christmas ❄️

[whoops11]

thinking about how we would’ve gotten the paige, azzi, and gigi trio this year

[reds-husky-girl]

Hallo? I have heard your name once or twice in passing and, sorry if I come off as strange but... You peak my curiosity. I mean, you have real ears and a tail. It's just so fascinating. [As he's speaking, Nurse is circling her. His gaze is one of fascination and curiosity]

Husky follows his gaze and her tail starts to wag

“You are interested??? Really???”

She holds his hands, being careful not to scratch him with her claws

“You are the nurse right??? How did you get your tail and ears???? They are so so so cool!!! Did it hurt???? Did you get a vivisection too??”

[fennthetalkingdog]

Someone just treated me like a dog today and it made me feel? So good?? Like I was caught off guard at first cause they've never done that before (they only pet my head but still), but then they were like, "But aren't you a dog?" and AGH, it felt so nice!

now reading 2ha vol2

ch 46 - 55

(sorry its a bit long, i wanted to be... coherent... this time lol)

btw tell me how much suffering i should expect from vol 2. on the scale from papercut to getting my heart ripped out 😭

Ok so… That lake thing was wild. Or so i thought, before Chu Wanning TURNED INTO A FUCKING KID. Like what the hell? He is either adorable or absurdly scary, no in between. I'm loving this so far.

I looked at that illustration in the book when I first got it  and I was more than confused because I couldn’t tell who was who. And for a moment I legit was like Is Chu Wanning a child? But then I was like NAAAAH CAN’T BE. Welp. Here we are :)))))) 

1. TL;DR: Chu Wanning is a horny lonely loser (affectionate)

Chu Wanning and his dreams. I have a hunch it's somehow a glimpse into their previous life. No idea how it would occur but that scene seems like something that might have happened?

It seems rather interesting to me that THIS would be Chu Wanning's fantasy. I couldn’t help but wonder if it isn’t because that’s the only way he would allow himself the pleasure. Because ultimately he doesn’t get to have a choice in that scenario. It takes away the guilt of lusting over his disciple. So maybe that’s where it came from. And, moreover, this is Mo Ran who wants CWN. Wants him so badly he can’t contain himself. I just found it really interesting that of all scenarios, CWN dreams of that one. I don’t know why I kept thinking about it but here we are ig lol

Also, Mo Ran destroyed his golden core in his past life? Did I miss that in vol 1? Because ohh :c. Or it wasn't Mo Ran???  

2. TL;DR: I’m gonna get hurt so so so bad

Mo Ran smiled. “Yep. Cause I’m closest with you, and I know you’d never lie to me.” Shi Mei was still hesitant. “That’s true, but…”

Welp. Based on community’s reactions that’s gonna hurt like motherfucker. I fucking know that line is there for a reason. I fucking know it. The reason is to break my heart. And isn’t it like a second time Shi Mei says something about not lying to Mo Ran? I WONDER WHY. (i might have remembered it wrong tbh but this part is there and is tormenting me)

3. TL;DR: Mo Ran’s emotional intelligence is at most equal to emotional intelligence of a lettuce (one that’s been sitting in the back of your fridge for weeks because you forgot about it); Also, Shi Mei is sweet and kind and i don’t believe any of you anymore. He can’t hurt a soul. 

Mo Ran is very adamant on hating Chu Wanning. He wants to hate him. He needs to hate him. As if he was scared of the feelings that might be left if he does not hate him. That part is specifically in relation to his conversation with Shi Mei and how uncomfortable he’s gotten when Shi Mei started going on and on about how Chu Wanning isn’t really all that bad. 

And then that part with the umbrella happened and I really wish it was from Mo Ran’s perspective, because for the love of god I have no idea what his intentions are. It seemed like a really bad and failed flirting attempt. Like me when I asked this guy that was in a band in school to tune my guitar but it was in fact in tune and it was just embarrassing tbh But it could be just him trying to be nice for whatever reason  and CWN overreacting because he is strong and independent and he doesn't need (no man) anyone. 

I’m really puzzled at Mo Ran tho. And, like, that’s not a bad thing. There is this part of him that hates Chu Wanning with every fiber in his body. But he also admires him deeply as a teacher and maaaybe tiny bit as a person. There is both disdain and interest. Hatred and kindness. His whole (other) life it seems like he had this image of Chu Wanning that was coldblooded and ruthless. And i feel like it’s shattering now that he starts to notice how it wasn’t really the case. But still it’s hard for him to put those two pieces together so he really tries to choose one. It’s really telling when he can’t answer Shi Mei’s question ab if he dislikes Shizun.

ALSO SHI MEI IS SO SWEET AND KIND I DONT BELIEVE ANY OF YOU. HE CANT BE EVIL. He can't be evil... He can't...

4. I’m just wondering why the thing that happened at the lake (i don’t remember how it’s spelled so it’s going to be THE LAKE) was so different to how it went the first time MR was there. Basically the one major change he’s purposefully made was that he stole money from Rong Jiu and didn’t fall for his trap. Could it be somehow connected? Because otherwise the events should be the same unless something was changed. And the only thing i can think of right now that he influenced in major way, is that whole deal with Rong Jiu. The ghost marriage "arc" ended more or less the same, didn't it? I might be mixing shit up but oh well.

Also, I saw a post the other day in which op was talking how Mo Ran’s love for Chu Wanning was clear to them from the very beginning. Op said they don’t understand how others might not get it and since i’m the one that wasn’t that keen on the idea at first, i decided to elaborate a bit on points i made after first 20 chapters or so, this time trying not to be as much of a clown (hopefully).

Well, I’ve seen the title of the book and I know they're gonna end up together one way or another. But its complicated and messy and I would even go as far as to say that’s the point? And, ironically it's also in the title. A dog and a cat. At first glance they are so different it seems almost impossible for them to get along. At first glance Chu Wanning and Mo Ran felt too different to be able to get along as well. There was too much resentment and too much things left unsaid (and unnoticed). After reading only first 20 chapters i was told that 1. Chu Wanning is ruthless and cruel 2. Mo Ran hates him. 3. Mo Ran is horny for him. Only with time as I was reading further, it turned out that they both care for each other in ways they themselves have a hard time explaining. 

I also don’t think sexual attraction equals everlasting love. And like, the fact that Mo Ran doesn’t get hard at the sight of Shi Mei isn’t telling me anything about his feelings. Does he really love him too much to have a single impure thought about him? Or does he not realize he doesn’t like him that way? Does he love him platonically? I don’t know. I’m for sure lacking context in this situation. That’s the point. I want to read it with my mouth open agape as I get to know those characters more and as slowly my first impression changes. Right now, based on what i’ve been presented by the book I adore Mo Ran’s puppy love for Shi Mei. But as i’m on chapter 50, I see it as just that, a puppy love.  

I don’t want to argue who to ship, because that’s not the point im trying to make xD I just think my hesitation to picture CWN and MR together after first 20 chapters was not that weird. I know it will happen and i’m curious to see how long it will take those idiots to realize their feelings for eachother and express them. I know they are meant to be. But they themselves don’t know that yet. And it feels like they try their best to ruin every chance they get lol I’m also curious where those feelings come from. Why Mo Ran became so obsessed with CWN.

There is foreshadowing, there are those little and not so little things scattered across that slowly become more meaningful the more context you add on top of them. But those alone, in my opinion aren’t enough to be convinced with utmost certainty from page one that the main characters are in fact in love. It’s more complicated than that and that’s why I enjoy it a lot and i enjoy when the books makes me believe one thing to then make me realize it wasn't ever that simple. Am I making sense? Idk it's 1AM i want to go to sleep njkinrjgkn

Hi, how are you? If you don't mind me asking, what are your top 7 favorite media (can be books/ manga/ anime/movies/tv series/etc)? And why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before...... Thanks....

hi! I'm doing great, thank you for asking! I haven't thought of a top 7 before so that's interesting to think about. hm...I guess it would probably be:

1. Haikyū!! (it's so simple but it's so good. I heard Furudate created it to get people into volleyball and I'm confident in saying that he succeeded. there's just something so refreshing about it, but underneath everything, it still manages to communicate a thoughtful message that where you are today is not where you'll be tomorrow, and that the journey brought on by your passion—while it may not get your end—still has meaning in its pursuit.)

2. The Husky and His White Cat Shizun by Meatbun doesn't Eat Meat (xianxia danmei. my god, I went into this novel thinking it was another low-hanging fruit enemies to lovers type bait where the ML is basically abusive and the MC is a weak backboned twink, but no. no the story had me screaming, sobbing, and begging the author to stop because it hurt too much. I was in tears and I was laughing and I was in love and I was praying for them to be happy so, so bad. it's actually insane. NOTHING will beat how Meatbun managed to make me reconcile Chu Wanning's cold exterior with his soft heart, and Mo Ran's past life with his current one. I was actually baffled by how many fucking revelations, foreshadowing, and plot twists (that made sense and didn't come out of left field entirely) this book managed to have. Meatbun expertly weaved humor, tragedy, horror, mystery and romance all into one misleadingly-packaged book and I feel delightfully bamboozled.)

3. Turning by 쿠유 (Korean historical bl novel. Still reading this one, but the deep unspoken trust the MC and ML have for each other is really awe-inspiring, and they're also very competent at what they do. The relationships with their subordinates and allies are also really heartwarming. The plot is sufficiently interesting as well, and not just something cobbled together to make the characters kiss lol—not that that's bad intrinsically, but it can get old after a while.)

4. Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rock Riordan (everyone knows this one. I love it because I grew up reading it, and then reading it to my sister out loud with the voices and everything. I love an MC that just consistently doesn't know what he's doing and yet sees things through to the end, and whose motto is just "fuck it, fuck this, and fuck you". and again Percy and Annabeth have that "bantering duo who trust and balance each other out and are also very, very good at what they do" type relationship that I'm such a sucker for.)

5. Bleach by Tite Kubo (one of the Big 3 manga serialized back then. I'm down bad for the art, he's one of my favourite mangaka in terms of art style, and also it's nostalgic. I grew up watching ichigo fight through impossible odds with just his "fuck you don't touch my people" mentality. are you starting to see a pattern with me and protective, headstrong MCs? the cast of side characters are all pretty memorable, despite its growing size down the line and again, i love their designs. I know people gripe a lot about the plot and continuity errors, but I enjoyed it regardless—except for the accursed ending and Epilogue Dad Haircut..)

6. Montmorency by Eleanor Updale (victorian crime fiction novel. I was sent this as compensation in, like, 5th grade when the Scholastic Fair delivered the wrong order to me. I didn't expect to like it but it was surprisingly a good standalone read. i used to reread it loads but it's been about a decade now so some details are blurry, but i am very fond of it still.)

7. A Quiet Place (horror movie, though for me it's less horror and more of a family-centric movie. I'm awful with horror, I'm such a wuss, but this movie was so good with its character dynamics and the ending was so fitting that I couldn't help but rewatch it and have it engrained in my head. I haven't watch the other movies in this series and tbh I fully believe the first movie is sufficient on its own, not to say the other suck, I just have no urge to watch them. this movie was such a palate cleanser for me in cinema.)

thank you for your ask, had a lot of fun coming up with this list!

Tried out this jogging thing a bit (8/10 would [and will] do again, since the views definitely help) 🏃🏽‍♂️

(Goal was actually 25 mins [with light starts/stops bc vieeeews] but I felt up to 5-7 mins extra and then just forgot to stop my timer app lmao)

Gun x Krist – Fire Boy

aka flirtatious and playful song and dance cover that Thai BL fans absolutely need to see because this performance is fire, no pun intended 🤩 Gun's voice is so soft and sweet as well, and Krist is a king on any stage as usual 😋

This is the performance where this legendary photo was born:

Actually if we're being 100% canon accurate then Hank would probably never approve of SU or letting Bobby watch it. He isn't as strict about gender roles as Cotton, but so far I haven't seen him approve of any of the times Bobby's been GNC. Also he was more disgusted with Bill putting on a dress than him drinking pasta sauce straight from the jar

Random Crossover Thoughts

There are ideas I play with and ideas I write. The following is an example of an idea I play with:

Jason Todd, Luo Binghe, and Mo Ran/Taxian Jun and how they would interact. Because they all have similarities... until they don't. (I am not into... I believe the term is batscest. And BIngmei would be creeped out by Taxian. Bingge would take notes). But I think it would be neat to watch Jason's reaction at the moment where he realizes their... different perspectives, and different types of revenges on their mentors.

And then I had to wonder at how he would feel about their interactions with his own mentor/father figure after that. 'Cause if I had a mentor/father figure, I would be distinctly uncomfortable leaving any of these guys alone with him. But how uncomfortable? Which would I be like, I wish they wouldn't, versus which I would immediately drop everything to intercede, if I were in Jason's boots.

I think it breaks down like this:

1.) Luo Binghe from SVSSS, also known as Bingmei. Most comfortable. Basically no threat of harming Bats or anyone really without good reason or purely because they have been a shitty mentor (at times). Would understand the perspective of loving someone with whom you have a complex relationship with underlying tones of guilt, betrayal, and pride. (Familial versus Romantic, but the base is there). Could actually be a sweet scene with either character, until the reveal. Might even be funny in how uncomfortable he would make Bats.

2.) Taxian Jun/Mo Ran would be unsettling, but not like an emergency, get to them immediately. I get the vibe he's a little like the Joker at times, but as long as he's got a reason to keep someone alive he will. I think if he and Jason were working together for whatever reason, he'd leave Bats alone except for being verbally abusive. I get the sense in terms of other abuses, Chu Wanning is the one most in danger at any given time. Same goes for other timeline versions of this character.

3.) Luo Binghe from PIDW also known as Bingge. Instantly get to them as fast as possible. Should probably not be left unsupervised with anyone, but especially not Bats. Bingge should never be left alone with someone who resembles a mentor/father figure, let alone one who has occasionally been shitty. Best case scenario he does the blood thing and bides his time to take revenge. Worst case he doesn't wait, and assumes he can talk his way out of consequences.

It remains an idea I will not write though, as I can think of no plot that could create a solid storyline. That, and I do not have a fully solid understanding of Jason Todd's voice/character that I feel comfortable writing him. But it remains a fun thought exercise to get me through my commute.

Juno gets spayed tomorrow and I’m being a worry wart

I’m not worried about anything in particular, I just don’t want her to be in pain

Lil babey gorl.

On the plus side I’m hoping that when her hormones balance out and stay that way, we can make some progress in our training. She had a season within the first couple of months of her being home and man oh man, that was a struggle for us all. Really backtracked on ignoring other dogs.

It’s also gonna be nice not having to worry about people asking if we’re breeding her. It makes me nervous having an intact dog that people are interested in. We’ve already had people ask if we will breed her, to let them know if she has pups because they’re interested, enquiring about breeding her to their own boy.

Like NOOOO thank you. Unless y’all wanna pay for all her health testing and pay for me to put her through some classes which lead to trials/competitions, and pay for those too? Oh and also pay for your male to do all the same in hopes that they both succeed and pass everything and are compatible? Like sure go ahead my guys. It’s your money not mine. All for a single pup you can keep? Bargain on my end.

how self indulgent can i get with my geats ar world before people start getting annoyed /hj

[sigs-gurney]

Decided today that the coworker who called me the r-slur is not, in fact, a cat as I have imagined many of my other coworkers to be, but a husky.

Huskies are

Stubborn

Easily offended

Escape artists

Not particularly interested in pleasing their people

Cool-looking

Don’t normally get along with cats very well

This fits that coworker perfectly. He is convinced of the idea that everyone likes or should like him, but at the same time makes no attempts to help others or make their life easier. He often manages to worm his way out of his tasks usually by finding a lull in business where he can just slip under the radar and leave without consulting anyone, which has become a common occurrence because his appearance tricks people into thinking he is upstanding and trustworthy. He also takes criticism very very harshly, even if you are trying to help him.

Side note on the criticism thing:

He also has a tendency to flirt with any girl of his age, usually unsuccessfully because nearly all of the girls he’s flirted with are actual lesbians. And I mean like 85% of them. At this point it ought to be obvious when they are holding hands and both have the same shoulder-lengthened haircut with curtain bangs, but this child usually goes for the girls traveling in pairs bc he has this idea that if he hits on one and it doesn’t work the other will bite.

And when I, a queer and somewhat gender-nonconforming woman, helpfully point out some of the indicators he missed on whether or not these girls are even attracted to men at all, he starts ranting about how I’m “ruining his game” or just saying that cause I’m jealous and “get no bitches”.

Teenagers amiright?

That’s not exactly 100% related, but it seems like something a husky might do if it were human (continually trying to engage play with another animal who is clearly not interested and maybe even afraid)

So yeah, I think husky characteristics fit his testosterone-fried behavior pretty well :)

Black

Shi Mei visits Rong Jiu in the dungeon. His form was marred by dark purple marks.  

“ He really is too cruel sometimes” 

“Emperor Ta and his empress make a perfect pair” 

“ Whatever do you mean?” 

Those peach blossom eyes narrowed “ You left a slab of chicken behind so you could savor the duck” 

He’s right Shi Mei had given the dog his other enemy to save Shizun.  

A slight stab of guilt easily self-soothed. 

“How funny, the Empress now holds the butcher knife over me.” 

Shi Mei recognized the jibe, ever since he revealed his secret to Emperor Ta. Everyone knew and anyone who had a problem didn’t keep their lives for very long. 

Hau Binan hadn’t been happy but then again he hadn’t been kept around much longer either. 

Ever since Shi Mei found out Mo Ran had the recessive Butterfly bone  Beauty feast gene accidentally, he’d been making some changes to his future self's plans. A war to kill the gods and free every beauty seat. 

Except for me and the dog, I’m forever chained too.  

                   “ I prefer it to being on the block”

            Rong Jiu smiled  “ Then it lightens my heart to know the dear Empress will soon be lying next to me.” 

Shi Mei thinks he should strike that pretty face but he’s intrigued by the man’s bite. Where was the simpering fool eager to curry favor and obtain riches he remembered? 

“ Why is that?”

“ The rotten nature of cultivators” 

Shi Mei studied him  “ Even me?” 

“ I’m quite certain your hidden soul is the blackest of them all” 

 The younger man reaches out and runs his hand through the other man’s silky hair affectionately. “ This knife will spare you” 

“ The Empress is so kind to me” 

“I'd like to be,” Shi Mei said softly. “ I’m not sure I know how….” 

“ To do anything but not end up trapped beneath a hungry pair of teeth,” Rong Jiu said quietly. 

 Shi Mei looks at him pinned to the wall. His slender body spread out. 

Like a butterfly, he thinks with a bitter smile. “ Let me love you until the end” his tone suddenly raw with desperation. As he caresses the other man’s cheek. 

“ I’ll hurt you the most.” 

“ I’m used to being wounded.”

Rong Jiu laughed  “ You think that makes it easier?” 

Shi Mei sweetens his tone  “  Oh A-Juier what has that brute done to you.” He runs his hands gently over each wound. 

“ Very well Empress I’ll play along, there are worse ways to spend my last days. Then in the arms of a beautiful man with a black heart.” the whore coincided. 

Shi Mei seals the bargain with a light kiss. 

                        Nine days later after the execution Shi Mei finds golden tears pouring down his face. Emperor Ta reaches out to comfort him and Shi Mei pulls away. Part of him relishing in the look of hurt confusion on the other man’s face.

Everyone talks about how smart huskies are, and as someone with a lot of experience in animals I can tell you- they’re not wrong! Huskies learn quick, can work jobs, save humans in emergencies, even learn to mimic human talking and use simple words to get their humans to feed them or give them water. That’s all true. It’s just that huskies are also kinda. Dumb. But In a different way. Like one time I brought my chihuahuas to the beach, and someone had a husky running around. Being all happy and friendly the husky came up to one of them and tried to play. Jon, the chihuahua who doesn’t even have teeth due to dental issues, did not take kindly to the invitation and snapped at the husky’s nose. The Husky, having been not even actually bitten by the 6 inch tall chihuahua, screamed and ran behind the couple that was walking him to hide. We said sorry and all, the couple laughed, and the husky was all sad. Because clearly he just almost died by the hands of a great beast. Yet meanwhile, as I recently saw in the news, another husky was being walked by the Hollywood sign, and fell off the edge of the short cliff. Just walked right off while the other dog (a smaller one) did not because It Is A Cliff Edge. Now the husky was completely fine, In fact he had a great time running around in the bushes while an actual search team was sent after him. And when he saw the search team from the brush he ran out tail waging because ah!!! Friends!!! He was reunited with his person and the small dog he was with, and seemed to have absolutely no regrets or qualms about how he Literally Walked Off A Cliff. So basically huskies are great, but they can be very very stupid and are very very lucky they’re sturdy and strong enough to handle their own decisions

[simonghostrileys]

can't believe almost all of my mental health issues got treated thanks to a husky puppy... the power those dogs have lemme tell you
