#late night thoughts of mine

[sexylittleslutsls]

Closing my eyes I remember times together …. It seems like yesterday yet days and months have passed by …. Moments spent laughing having coffee .. car rides for the next adventure .. sweet perfume fills the air .. nights at the hotels with erotic passion and pleasure .. the scent of sex on skin and stained sheets …. Memories created embedded in my heart that never fade from my mind …. You call me babe .. as I watch you you leave …. The smile I’m faking within a second an ache is put in me that is put there by you …. I know the heart I’m breaking is my own .. as you never asked me to stay …. I miss your smile when you see me .. I miss your touch as you stand next to me .. I miss your kiss as you hold me …. Lying here every thought and road always leads back to you ….

I lied & said I was busy. I was busy but not in a way most people understand. I was busy taking deeper breaths. I was busy silencing irrational thoughts.l was busy calming a racing heart. I was busy telling myself “l am Ok" Sometimes this is my busy & I won't apologise for that.

Guys, I just now noticed one more interesting little detail in the Untamed!

You know the names of the buildings in the Cloud Recesses: the lecture room/hall Lanshi (兰室, Lánshì, "Orchid Room"); Yashi (雅室, Yǎshì, "Elegant Room") – the reception room/hall; the spirit-summoning room/hall Mingshi (冥室, Míngshì, "Underworld Room" or "Room of Darkness"); Hanshi (寒室, Hánshì, "Frost Room") - Lan Xichen's residence; and Lan Wangji's Jingshi (静室, Jìngshì, "Quiet Room"), right?

The character used to write the "shì", room, in the names is 室, here seen in the Lanshi and the Yashi (the names are read from right to left):

As a side note, the Lan seem to use the traditional rather than the simplified characters, so the "lán" in the Lanshi is written with 蘭 rather than 兰.

BUT. Not so in the Jingshi! Instead of the 室, a slightly different character is used for the "room":

My trusty dictionary did not know the character in question, so I started to look at what was different:

As such, the character 凶 (xiōng) means act of violence, murder, evil. An evildoer. A murderer. And as Lan Xichen told Wei Wuxian, we know who lived in the Jingshi before it became Lan Wangji's residence: "It is the place where our mother lived in the Cloud Recesses".

So, it seems that when the house became Madam Lan's prison, the character was changed to reflect her crime, denoting the place as the quiet room of a murderer. Accentuated by the reversed colours of the sign:

This has probably been quite self-evident to anyone who actually speaks and reads Chinese, but was quite an oooff! to me as I realised. One more killer detail in CQL 😟.

And while I was at it, I just had to check what it says above the gate (seen here when LWJ returns home with the Emperor's Smile):

As far as I can read it, the characters are 影竹堂 (yǐng zhú táng), which I freely translate as "Bamboo Shadow Court". An apt name for the place.

Hopefully it offered some solace to Madam Lan.

And oh, I just have to add! As Hanshi is the Sect Leader's residence, Lan Xichen is living in their father's house, while Lan Wangji is living in their mother's. And the two houses are more or less identical, down to the furnishings (just check the scene where Lan Xichen confronts Wen Chao and his muddy boots in ep8 vs. The Wangxian Scene in ep43). So did Qingheng-jun have the house built for his wife, identical to the house she was not allowed to live in? That is quite plausible, in universe. Out universe, they probably had only so many buildings to shoot in :).

"Is it true that in every relationship, one person loves more than the other? Why does it always feel like I’m the one who loves more?"

We were never monsters

We were just hurt

Silently, painfully, alone.

There’s something about giving your all to someone that feels natural to me. Whether it’s in friendships or relationships, I’m the type of person who pours in effort, love, and time without expecting much in return. It’s never about what I can get, it's about what I can give. I like being the one who cares a little more, who goes the extra mile. I’m okay with that.

But there comes a moment when things shift. Slowly, you start to feel like you're the only one investing, the only one reaching out, the only one who still cares. And that's when something in me changes.

I’m not one for dramatic exits or big fights. But the warmth that I once gave starts to fade. I don’t get angry; I get distant. I shut down. I become a stranger, someone you don’t recognize. And once I’m there, I don’t come back. It's not revenge or a game, it’s just self-preservation. I think everyone has a limit, and once mine is crossed, I become the coldest version of myself.

It’s not that I want to be this way, but it’s who I’ve learned to become. So if you feel my warmth, cherish it. Because once it’s gone, it’s gone for good.

Forgotten how to feel

[anulithots]

we have the worst words for friends. Relationships in general.

LIke.... there's friends, but then there's more than friends but not romantic. The comfort person. The other half of your soul. (it can be more than two people) Soulmates really. Not romantic though.

Then there's not romantic, not platonic, not something in between. Something else. Something more. I like Queer platonic for this. But... There's so much nuance and wonder to friendships that I hate so much how we label it. I love shipping but shipping isn't everything and I want words to describe all the wonderful dynamics in both fiction and in real life.

LIke... found family? KIn? Do they work? No. they don't sound right to me.

Gahhhhh I hate it all. I'd rather dissolve all the labels and let it be poetry... but then there would always be the romantic interpretation. Which is fine... but it would be nice if it was just ONE of the interpretations instead of the ONLY interpretation. There's so many colors. Why are we only looking at red? Have you seen the pretty shades of green and blue and purple and orange?

You ever come up with an idea and you’re not sure how to categorize it
