I really hate when you read a book that has an interesting enough story but is structurally bad.

It keeps you thinking about it because fucking hell, I could have written this story better, but it wasn't my story to write. But goddamn it, this could have been so much better.

#kai rambles #im still thinking about the maidens by alex michaelides #i read it all in one day #and there is a story in there #but its not on the pages #this is spoilers but i dont think anyone who follows me and bothers to read the tags on a post i made that will at most get 6 notes is gonna #read this book so im just gonna ramble #as a storytelling device the story should have been intercut with conversations between marianna and zoe while zoe is in a psychiatric unit #where you think zoe is just talking about knowing the girls (the titular maidens) who were murdered and the trauma surrounding it #that way theo could show up more than twice in the book where he feels like a last minute addition #and also it wouldnt come out of fucking nowhere that zoe was the killer afterall #and you could better intersperse what sebastian had done to her rather than it being a cheap plot twist #sebastian could also be present in the book more than he was where he was literally just a fridged wife until the last plot twist #like you could see him through zoes eyes as well as mariannas eyes #also more needed to be done to clue in the reader what the relevance of the greek mythology meant #like if you dont know much about greek mythology a lot of this is just gonna be confusing #also also like the letter excerpts did not read as a letter despite being one so more could have been done to convey that #it read as a memoir more than anything #i think adding a ''dear [whatever moniker]'' would have actually done more for the book than it would take away from the mystery #it could still read ad a memoir or a diary entry or a letter never meant to be sent #fred needed to be better introduced than just randomly showing up on a train #same with morris #also what the fuck was up with elsie?#like i get now she was meant to be a foreshadowing device but it was way too heavy handed #like she seemed a right creep #if youre having her as a foreshadowing device you need to be more subtle with it #also what happened to conrad? he was just dropped by the plot early on #im so annoyed with this book

I can behave normally around books

#shitpost #anyway guess who brought home 24 new books today?#if you guessed me. well. you would be correct #in my defense I only bought 5 #for a combined total of usd #where’d the number go. it was 17 usd #the rest were from me going through what my dad was getting rid of for space and claiming it for myself #but either way #24 in one day is a personal record I think #also I do fully intend to read all of these it’s not hoarding for hoardings sake

art prompt: cosy reading day on Qing Jing Peak (they're scholars! let them snuggle up and read!!)

as requested! sorry this took so long, this piece had me clawing my hair out

While I was drawing this I was thinking the original Shen Qingqiu had a very neat, orderly personal library— but transmigrated Shen Qingqiu could not care less about appearance more so about the information in it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

-

[ID: Green-toned Scum Villain fanart of Shen Qingqiu, Ning Yingying, Luo Binghe, and Ming Fan reading together in the Bamboo House beside a shelf stuffed with books and scrolls. They are all cushioned by blankets and pillows. Ning Yingying is asleep on Shen Qingqiu's lap, his hand on her head petting her softly. Shen Qingqiu smiles pressed against Luo Binghe, who blushes while holding a book. Ming Fan looks at him with a frown while also reading. End ID]

ID by @/nebulations — thank you!

#thus the mess of scrolls and books on the shelves and everywhere 🤗#I’ve literally had this in my wip folder for like 2 months #I was all like “ this would be a good exercise to try and line more pieces!’’#_:(´ཀ`」 ∠) ughhhh whyyyy #MAYBE one day I will fully color this piece #for now this will have to do #hope this satisfies !!!#svsss #shen qingqiu #luo binghe #ming fan #ning yingying #qing jing peak #qing jing peak trio #in my head the among us ‘sus’ music is playing as ming fan eyes luo binghe and his shizun #‘wth going on over there’#ning yingying tried reading but Shizun’s lap is too comfy….she’s just an eepy girl #and lbh is a freak #hoot art

Being someone who read Under The Red Hood and came out with the firm belief that, for Jason, it's not about killing Joker, it's about Jason wanting proof Batman would choose him over the Joker (bc shelia chose the joker). Makes seeing any other media where it's all about just wanting the Joker dead is a teeny bit frustrating. to be honest

Jason could've killed the Joker himself, really, really easily. Jason kidnaps the Joker before the confrontation. I can't open my comic for a reference right now, but it felt like he had the Joker for quite a bit before the confrontation. He had him. He beat him up with a crowbar. He had every single opportunity to kill the Joker himself, but he didn't because that wasn't his goal. Make no mistake, he did plan for the Joker to be dead by the end of it, but do you see what im trying to say here

Edit: If I knew this post was gonna get 1000+ notes I would've tried to word it better or something, this was a rant I made on the way to the grocery store 😭

It's not about making Batman kill either. When Batman says he won't kill, Jason adjusts and goes, 'Let ME kill the Joker or kill me to stop me' instead. The test is all about Batman choosing him. The whole final confrontation is Jason's first death again. The parent, The Joker, and the explosives. It even ends with Jason unable to move as a bomb goes off right next to him again because the parent didn't choose Jason. And instead tried finding an option that'd benefit them and (consequencely) letting the Joker walk, again, lol, lmao <-in agony

#the final confrontation was basically his first death again #and YES he Does want the Joker dead #and it would've been really really nice if Batman was the one who did it #but when batman made it clear he wouldn't kill the joker. Jason easily switched to saying “LET me kill the joker” to accommodate #because he Wanted batman to pass his test #he gave a test to dick too. and technically tim but it wasnt the family test it was a different one so it doesnt rly count #AFTER utrh and the reveal and the batarang you can go hog wild about it. i care less about it then #granted i do believe they make jason more scared of the joker after it at some point #i guess because hes a bit too willing to kill the joker and ive heard jason wasnt meant to live after utrh #my watsonian explain for that is he was so fixated on his plan he cpuld override his fear. or maybe the pit. either work #i prefer the fixation bc i dont like the explanation that the pit was the /only/ reason he could get all plan together and done #BUT THATS UNRELATED!!!#dc stop putting the joker in jason stories im begging you please please please. lock him in a vault for the next 20 years or something #it Cpuld be good and i understand. but also. after so long of people that dont know or go for jasons need for family and parents #that love him and he can trust #the joker starts to feel like?? hm. words. a cop out? oh haha its that guy that killed him woagh hes here #i bet you dont even know that jaybin got beat until unconsciousness by an angry mob #while asking batman to save him only for batman to have to walk away #anwya. where was i going with this #i think i got off topic #jason todd #dc comics #batman #ADDED AN EDIT. SORRY. this post has been haunting me it keeps me awake. what if people misunderstand #they cant read my tags where i ramble more depth. thisbis the only option #EDIT EDIT: hiii #removed the sentence abt jason having the joker for several days bc i misremembered some things #go read its-your-mind 's addition instead also #ok no more i wont edit this post anymore i promise

I don’t think we’ve ever seen you draw knight of dawn before 🤔 what are your thoughts about him? Or take?

I've drawn him a couple of times, just really little/in the background. but I should draw him more, I love this guy a lot! I have many, many thoughts about him and the way he parallels Silver...and also I think it is extremely funny that his ghost is stuck in a ring. especially considering where that ring has been for the last 16-ish years.
