#mdzs brainrot

[orandoggo]

My MDZS brainrot kinda spilled into lion dancing for some reason?? But it's such a good idea where both my oc Maoxian and @plague-mortem's oc Yun decides to make lion dance costumes just to fuck with people

Then they end up being the first lion dancer/cultivators together. Two besties wanting to scare people only to end up going down in history as 'magical' lion dancers

fun lil prompt thing for October cuz I am sick™ for Halloween/October I love it so much

MODERN MDZS (I might expand on this one for day 12 - Familiarity)

Wei Ying has a different mug for every day of October. Cheesy things like "Witch Please", "Coffee, Scream & Sugar", etc. After wangxian have breakfast together in the morning and they have their coffee, wwx watches blissfully as his husband washes their dishes and winks at lwj if he looks up at him.

This usually ends up in extra everyday™ before lwj has to go to work, but wwx doesn't mind, he simply cuddles up next to the fireplace like a cat with a bundle of blankets for a few more hours, and maybe paints something after lunch.

lwj also has to deal with spontaneous Halloween décor showing up around the house, and nearly has a heart attack walking into his room seeing wwx asleep beside a skeleton in the bed (he was probably waiting to spook him but fell asleep in the process)

Nie Huaisang is such a character. He can faint on command. The character guide in the novel describes him as a dandy and lists his weapons as saber (ostensibly) and crying (actually). He stalked a canary for several days and then sneaked it into class. He collects porn and shares it with his friends. He's in a sword wizard society and his clan in particular is known for their blades but he never once has a fight scene. His characteristic accessory is a paper fan. He failed summer camp twice. He formed a Golden Core nearly a decade later than everyone else his age. When his brother was killed he set in motion a several years long revenge scheme that involved both careful planning and insane improv. He built a reputation on not knowing anything. He threw himself on his brother's killer weeping and saying "if you don't help me I'm killing myself in front or you." Truly who is doing it like him

I started reading Dungeon Meshi last week, became instantly charmed and captivated, and blitzed through the entire manga in 4 days (and changed my profile picture about it). With that in mind, I would just like to say...

I love your dungeon meshi art so so much

CHILCHUCK!!!!!!!!

Thank you kindly! I love Dungeon Meshi a lot, so I'm happy to see so many people get into it for the first time.

CHILCHUCK!!!

reply got too long so here we go again (pardon if i'm a bit disjointed, the adhd makes it hard to focus on one thing at a time rn):

I think its a little complex but at the same time pretty simple;

at the end of the day wwx didn't take it as insensitive bc the man was finally treating her right and wwx loved her and wanted to see her happy. I don't think he even thought about it being insensitive- I don't think Yanli did either, because she knows/loves wwx & loves jin zixuan.

We know wwx talked about being involved in yanli's wedding, he was always super excited to see her happy & in love and he shows how upset he is, albeit subtly, while eating with lwj. He starts drinking more, he talks (in lack of better terms) in a depressed manner kind of like how you would expect an alcoholic to (which i won't go too into- but i really do think wwx had a drinking problem and i think even he addresses it after lwj/wwx have a misunderstanding towards the end), revealing how he and jc had always talked about making her wedding the most grand. He was upset that he wasn't involved and thought he wouldn't be at all, having to hear it from lwj that there was a wedding to be had at all. I think if anything, this would have been the moment he would have been hurt by, but instead i believe more in something like this:

In canon further along (after jin zixuan's death) we know wwx has a moment of weakness as he thinks to himself (through the narration) that he wonders if he should have ever took them to the burial mounds- not a perfect quote here just summary, but yeah- we know wwx is capable of doubting his morals at this point despite him so strongly believing in them. So in that moment, he was probably thinking something similar, even if he agreed with himself he did the right thing: if only i hadn't saved the wens. But he knows this is a bad thought, he knows the dafan wen didn't cause the issues ppl kept pushing on them, so he knows he did right despite these thoughts. So in that moment as he drank and ate with lwj, he was upset because of being separated from them. He was close to them for so long, a little over half his life at that point, and now he couldn't have the things he always wanted because he was protecting a group of innocents from the other clans. He was briefly angry at himself. Upset with his own decision but living with it, because it was right. He would still be affected though bc it was another dream he realized he'd have to give up.

The jin family be damned, Yanli loved jin zixuan. I think it went without saying, as she regularly shielded wwx, that she didn't approve of how zixun treated him and if she had been present when jin guangshan acted out towards him, she probably would have married in anyway because she knows jin zixuan could eventually replace jin guangshan and thus make the clan a better one. She even responds to madam jin saying that she took the disrespect towards wwx very seriously: making her opinion of his mistreatment well known. I believe after jzx confessed, she started to spend a lot more time alone with him and thus, the opportunity for the jins to be extra foul just kind of happened. I think a good portion of what happened still came to her from jzx's and jc's perspective, but unfortunately not wwx's. She always seemed just conveniently placed out of the important scenes, (probably bc she was too good at her job and would have ripped into zixun when he dared to disrespect wwx when he was trying to save innocent lives) but thats a writers pov so i'm just going to get to the next bit.

wwx never felt wronged by yanli, so i don't think we should assume those feelings were there. They were all living in a world where everything was a little fucked up and trying to improve things. being able to see her when he was supposed to be kicked out of the clan for protecting the wens was probably one of the lights on his little path on the way to a terrible end, and they were doing their best. I don't think she brought soup just to temper the waters so to speak, she brought it because it was jc's and wwx's favorite comfort food growing up and she knows wwx misses them. I'm sure getting soup and seeing his shijie in her wedding dress was something positive, and they were just doing what they could to bring each other up!

but anyway, my thoughts were that! the two didn't see it as something bad but something of hope and happiness. Not all was bad, and maybe one day things could get better. Of course, we knew something bad was going to happen beyond what was already there. but they didn't know how bad things would get. It was a temporary and welcome balm, when everything felt wrong.

edit: also, don't get me wrong, i do think wwx would be worried about her, but thats about it. She is very good with her words and wwx has a lot of confidence in her, and a lot of people don't dare treat her badly because of her marrying jin zixuan as well as just being a woman, as bad as that sounds. This is not a modern novel so there is some immunity if only with her gender. (and, she is not described as being anything more than a regular girl in the novel, so she is unlikely to be targeted by jin guang-shit)

I've talked about this before but I like polls so:

I'm curious to read your thoughts!

I'm proud of my impulsive decisions :D

Character belongs to @plague-mortem!

[rkivees]

The quote "I will sacrifice pieces of my flesh and still be called selfish for wanting to keep my bones" lives rent free in my mind because Wei Wuxian did sacrifice pieces of his flesh and was still considered selfish for wanting to keep his bones.

[rnmyn]

They're talking about wine. And their best friend.

Also, they share a voice (Donghua!SQX and A/D&CQL!WWX)???
