it's all fun and giggles to see you falling for other groups, but let's do the other way around for once. any tips for new carats? i've been postponing for two years now, need a final push to join caratland 🥹
aw hiii ^_^ i’ve only been a carat for about five months so i haven’t even hit the half year mark—but the fact that you’ve been postponing 😭😭 and for two years no less hon what r u waiting ?? for ??? do u need convincing. i got u.
LOOK AT MY BEST FRIEND. oh my god oh my god. look at the bestie. look at him. swooning fainting falling over etc etc.
thirdly, follow a shit ton of tags. like a lot. ones like #svtsource and #svtdaily are full of so much wonderful fanmade content like gifs, moodboard, graphics, and so on. they’re so nice to look at oh my god ?? the talentry ,, and for free ???? for the free…
blogs like hourly[member] or daily[member] are also good for fanmade content as well, but they also might have updates reblogged as well. some update blogs might have more personalize users to fit the member they’re focused on, though, like my favorites @chweck-in and @fy-wonwoo ^_^

additionally, try and make friends !! caratland is pretty vast and i’ve made friends in all sorts of communities <3 all it takes really is commenting something nice and being friendly :)
i feel like this is more technical towards starting a content blog which i’m not even sure you want to do but i really can only draw from my own experience 😭 so i’m really sorry if this appears more content related. but the community here is super nice !! it’s super sweet and i’m glad i joined <3

Hi again! I just had some thoughts on Caleb that are hopefully helpful in some way? I really like him as a character, but I think that the way the demo has him is a big part of why he's so disliked--most of what I liked is in the asks about him. He has his moments in the demo--when Morgan is thrown around in the car, he's clearly bracing himself to keep her from getting hurt. I think more moments like that would help him in the PR department. For example, you mentioned that he is unhappy (1/2)
This is the last ask I’ll be answering about Caleb, as the situation has already come to a resolution based on our Discord discussions and discussions with Kickstarter backers. (In short, there are a number of backers who don’t want him changed. And since they have already paid for the product - and some of them backed specifically for Caleb - he won’t be changing beyond what I’ve already done).
I cannot make Caleb much nicer for plot reasons as a whole and feel that if I have to continually “nice-i-fy” him, I will ultimately diminish his character and route. I think this comes down to the fact that everything he says and does has a specific reason. He wasn’t written that way ‘just because’. Each behaviour was written as it is for the sake of specific moments that happen in later in his route.
For instance, the reason why he doesn’t explicitly say “I don’t like this any more than you do” or any variation is because this is a plot reveal in his route specifically for the sake of Morgan learning he’s not who she thought he was. If I have that in the common route then, well, it can’t be a reveal later on. This is what I meant in a previous ask when I mentioned that adding in moments of “niceness” or “understanding” erode the foundation of their romantic development because it diminishes his dramatic change in character.
There's a difference between expanding on an idea and introducing an idea. Introducing the idea of Caleb being unhappy with his orders has a different impact than just expanding on it because it was already revealed.
One of the confusing things (this isn’t aimed at you! It’s just an observation in general about this situation) about this has been how often people bring up things about Caleb as possible fixes, when other characters are guilty of the same things.
Caleb kidnaps Morgan, yes. But so does Ari (Caissa tries...Magnus knows they’re about to do it, and Jack is just being more stealthy in his approach). Caleb is dismissive of her questions, but so is Ari. I could be misremembering or forgetting my own writing (I do that a lot! LoL) but I believe Ari literally covers her mouth to shut her up at one point.
I know that Caleb may need extra care because he’s the gruff character that Morgan initially does not like...but that’s also the point. Many of the suggestions I’ve gotten feel designed to make him less gruff, and to rub Morgan the wrong way less, to show her that he does sympathise, or isn’t as mean. But all that is directly at odds with the purpose of his character in the game. Which is why my conundrum was about whether to keep him. I can’t make these kinds of edits without defying why he exists, essentially. So it came down to “completely change his character and purpose” or “remove his character entirely.”
But, of course, as I said, the backers have spoken and so that kind of decides that. Backers don’t want him gone and they don’t want him *changed* so...that won’t be happening. (There were also Misery gifs and threats about locking me in a room with angry cockatoos. So my hands are tied. Possibly literally.) ;A;
That said, I do want to also discuss that a big point of contention for many people is that Caleb, the only visibly not-white guy (Jack’s heritage is Latin American but I am not sure how many people view him as a person of colour compared to Caleb, who is visibly East/SE Asian in appearance), is being singled out for behaviours the others are guilty of as well - pretty much across the board.
Yes, Caleb is certainly gruff and angry compared to the others. But many of the specific things being brought up as possible fixes are not unique to his character (kidnapping Morgan, being dismissive of her, even not being terribly sympathetic when she cries. Jack is kind of amused by the situation, and Ari is the only one that expresses any sympathy at all - and it consists entirely of a disapproving dad look at Caleb).
People of colour in our community have expressed they feel Caleb is being unfairly targeted, really. They *want* to see characters of colour who are allowed to be flawed without having to be toned down and declawed and polished up to perfection to be more appealing. We had a frank discussion about how all the other love interests who are people of colour are *nice* or *polite* or *friendly.* (Reuben, Yuu, Jack, Lance - and Edan, Caleb’s possible replacement). There was an impassioned (and very compelling) request to not declaw Caleb when white love interests in games (including in Changeling, our last game) can get away with all sorts of terrible, bratty, and grouchy behaviour without getting called on it to this degree.
I think that’s also a valid point, which is another reason why I won’t be making further changes.
Finally, I want to conclude with this:
I’m not trying to shut down or be dismissive of feedback. I have edited Caleb. I edited before we released our last demo update, and I edited him again a few days ago. So when the game comes out, there will be some minor changes in how he treats Morgan. In some cases, I just altered language - sometimes I think it’s just a matter of a particular word giving the impression of an angrier action than I want. “Hauled me to my feet” can maybe a little more intense than “pulled me to my feet” or “grabbed my arm” can sound worse than “took me by the arm” - especially if a player is already indignant about Caleb not being polite enough.
I never particularly saw him as throwing Morgan around or being “violent” but looking at the writing critically, I can see how certain sentences might have read that way with the language being used. So I tried to address that where I could.
I won’t be making any further additions or changes to what I have, though!
Thank you for your comment! I appreciate you taking the time to send your thoughts! <3

okie dokie, into the pot with all the frozen blackberries i’ve had in stasis - a one-gallon freezer bag stuffed pretty full makes for a nice full pot!
time to turn up the heat on theses bad boys....
oh hell yeah we cookin DOWN
sufficiently reduced and looking Quite Lovely... time to separate the juice from the mush!
Separation Station (cheesecloth pinned over a big bowl). Time To Pour!
watch out for the splatter!!! its still really hot. (it got all over my shirt too)
gently stir and mush that Good Stuff around to help free up the juice so it can filter through the cloth.(does that gif move for anyone? ah well) this doesn’t do the whole job though! Fact is.... ur gonna hafta Squeeze It
hanged for Berry Crimes (you don’t actually have to hang it if you cant manage this setup but i find it to be easier) do NOT squeeze right away! them berries is hot, remember? so now its gotta cool enough, then you go in double hand squeezing firm but gentle like to coax the last bit of juice out (not pictured b/c its very messy and i kept my phone out of the Juice Zone)
Well Now You’re Done Juicing and you can pour your hard earned juice in a jar for storage, but dont wait too long before you make that jelly! i plan on jelly-fying this Sweet Stuff tonight!!
#goblin food#i'll make another post once i've done the jelly! :3#i don't think my gif is working....#the stirring the mush around was a gif but it. looks frozen#oh well#jelly is a little extra work cuz u gotta get the juice first#long post#the squeezin zone looked like a murder scene when i was done

hey my man, amazin work on act omega- the team behind it is wonderful!! im lookin to make a fanventure myself, could you give any tips as to pixelling in gg and how to edit images? you know like basically any recoloured, edited clusterfuck of an image in homestuck that hussie does (planets, for example) + how you tilt to have them at different angles? sorry if this sounds like a loooot and you can completely ignore this ask(!), but im just clueless and motivated, my guy
Thank you for asking! I never get asks and I’m always glad to help with any questions like these.
…Anyway, the team behind Act Omega is definitely wonderful, take it from me. My job is typically to do all sorts of sprites/ sprite edits (like the ones in the [S] Resume animation) and I draw the characters and/or backgrounds for panels often enough, so I can definitely give you some tips on those things.
Most editing effects like the ones you asked about aren’t really my domain - a lot of them are done in Photoshop by (among others) our amazing art director @joyfulldreams (she’s seriously great go follow her please), so I asked her for some additional tips.
(This is probably going to turn out long enough to be annoying to scroll past, so I’m putting it all under a read more.)
First off, I have to clear up that when it comes to editing the typical Homestuck sprites (like the ones in [S]:Resume), GraphicsGale hasn’t been my main tool.
The first thing I did for Act Omega was drawing some talksprites (for Tumblr asks, mine were never actually used). I used to do that in Gale, but as soon as I tried it using Paint Tool SAI’s aliased brush (Legacy Pen) instead, I decided that was more comfortable. Most of my work for Resume, redrawing sprites from Collide we couldn’t find elsewhere, was done that way too.Pros of using SAI (and probably Photoshop too? Not 100% sure) for sprites compared to Gale include:
The layers are much, much easier and more intuitive to use than Gale’s. To me Gale’s layers kinda suck and using them is always a pain.
Using a sketch is easier too, and you can make it semi-transparent
Gale doesn’t really do pen pressure, which is most important in talksprites but still can be helpful for the regular sprites too.
That said, when I had to make entirely new animations (like the one above), I had to use GraphicsGale, with its handy preview feature, and it is perfectly possible to use only Gale for everything. Rotating things also had to be done in Gale and then manually cleaned up a little, since SAI will turn anything you try to transform into an ugly anti-aliased mess.
So, bottom line is, I personally prefer to use Gale and SAI in combination, but that’s not strictly necessary. If you’re going full-on Gale (and now I’m gonna assume you haven’t used it too much before), here’s
A few quick practical tips on using Gale I wish I had figured out earlier:
The default settings of Gale include a 1 pixel brush and a 3 pixel brush, but no 2 pixel brush. Since pen pressure won’t save you here, that’s inconvenient. The less you need to go back and painstakingly correct your lines to be the right size, the better. You’ll want to make that brush yourself by opening a new file in Gale, 32x32 pixels, and 1 bit (2 colours). Make it look like this and save it as a bitmap (BMP) image:
And then find this option:
and put your bitmap in there. Gale will recognize that as a custom 2px brush.
If you want to make your images have a transparent background, make sure you tick that box in the options of the frame, not the layer (the little ellipsis button next to each Frame thumbnail -see below). Gale still has no way of telling if your BG is transparent or just white, so I recommend always working with a different color as a background. That way you can tell from the animation preview - if the BG looks white there, it’s transparent. Also make sure these settings apply to every frame by changing “current frame” to “all frames”.
If you want to change the opacity of something (like, say, god tier wings on a troll), you need to save the image as a .png first and tick the box “With Alpha Channel” underneath…
…then open the image again. Only then will the transparency slider above the palette sliders actually work. You can also use the thick blue pencil button:
…to set your pencil tool to opacity mode, which will make anything you draw over into the opacity set by the slider.
Now for some more Homestuck-specific tips:
You’re probably better off making sprites in separate parts (a layer for the head, one for the body, one for the arm(s)… from the start. It’ll save you a lot of trouble when you need to animate them. In fact, it might not be a bad idea to also put all of those parts into a neat spritesheet so you don’t have to look too far when you need to reuse something.
(I didn’t see this one all the way through because there was too much to do but you get the idea)
If you don’t already, make sure you have a big folder of references from Homestuck, both panels and sprites, just so you know how The Huss would have done it. That might be more important for Act Omega since we’re trying so very hard to be as close to canon as humanly possible, but it’ll be very handy regardless.
What else is there… well, I could say some more stuff about the art style itself but I figure if you want to start a fanventure you’ll probably have the basics of that stuff down already.
Now, for what Joy had to say about editing images:“Say you need for example a scene on Prospit or Derse, then the process goes like this:1. Find an image (or images) on google that are generally of italian cities and cathedrals. A lot of iconic “Derse and Prospit” images actually come from pictures of the roof of the Milan cathedral, but generally you should get the gist with the Florence skyline and by cobbling together a bunch of cathedral images. 2. You want to use Photoshop tools like the magic wand or selection tool to cut out the sky and anything else that isn’t the actual building. Usually anyway depending on the image. If you have a picture with a bunch of tourists you could just crop them out or use the clone stamp tool to make them disappear oooooo.3. Turn the entire image grayscale, and (optional at this point but you might want to do it eventually) bump up the brightness and contrast. 4. Then you want to eye-drop pick from a canon Derse or Prospit image the light and dark Derse/Prospit colors. For prospit its like a bright saturated yellow and a more dark orange color? You can actually play around with the two colors you use to vary contrast and stuff if you’re putting together a bit scene. 5. Copy the cathedral layer and lock the opacity, put it above the original layer, and fill it with the solid light color. Set the layer mode to overlay.6. Do this again but with the darker color, and put it below the original layer.7. Lower the opacity of the original layer. It should start to look how hussie makes it look.8. Sometimes to give it an additional rough pixellated look, I’ll go to image>adjustments>posturize and play around with it. It gives the image some of that gif-ified look.But basically when it comes to hussie-fying images these are some of the basic main principles you want to keep in mind. The posturize effect, using overlay layers, and finding images and mashing them together creatively.
Also another key thing to note is that when you resize or transform things, there are different transformation MODES. In order to transform pixellated stuff, you want to use Nearest Neighbor. That will preserve sharp edges, but sometimes it can distort things and make it look weird. In situations like that Hussie often uses Bilinear instead, and then sharpens the transformed part. He usually ONLY does this when he is making things smaller or rotating them, not to enlarge anything, because then the blurred/sharpened-ness of it becomes way more obvious.This is honestly the best advice I can give. A lot of it is kind of fucking around with blending modes and layers until you get the right LOOK lol.”
(-Joyfulldreams 2017, give her a round of applause)
…So that’s pretty much some general technique pointers. I’ll post them publicly in case anyone else would like to know.I hope I haven’t just been stating the obvious here, wasn’t entirely sure what I could say that would really directly be helpful, but in any case, if you have any more specific questions you think I might be able to help with, please feel free to send me a PM.

A MESS
That’s what the SKAM fandom has become. A fucking mess between :
- The creepy fans. They are hardcore fans. They are obsessed with Evak. They watched like 50 times, season 3. They know every lines by heart. They managed to do 2-3 trip to Olso, not for the beauty of Norway of course, only to see the two principal actors. On tumblr, their only occupation is reblogging stuff concerning Evak, Tarjei Sandvik Moe (“MY PRECIOUS SON”) and Henrik Holm (“RAY of SuNshIne”) (“BEST ACTOR IN THE WORLD”) (“I’M SO EMOTIONAL” or “I’M CRYING Tarjei or Henrik is buying some orange juice”) and answering Anon who is telling them ”Gurl, it’s gross, stop shipping Tarjei and Henrik together.“ ” You have to distinguish the character from the actor“. They don’t care, they’re too far gone, they will keep shipping them anyway because "I don’t hurt anybody doing that”.
- The Norwegian weaboo. They throw some “Halla”, “Alt er love”, “Nei” and “Fy Faen” in ALL their fucking post even if they are just talking about idk lasagna. They remind you everyday that they are now master in Norwegian thanks to Duolingo. Suddenly, since Skam, half of Tumblr is Norwegian and live in Oslo and have (if it’s not them) "friends who knew / go to the same school / did a party / hang out (cross out the wrong indications) with Henrik, Marlon and Tarjei". Yes, little we knew, Oslo is a village of 100 peoples.
- The Yousana shippers. Some muslims, many who aren’t. Innocent, they don’t understand what’s the big deal with the fact that Yousef doesn’t believe in God. Some even except a kiss between Yousef and Sana. LOL. My sweet summer child, you can wait.
- The Jonas (”Eyebrows god”) stan. My favorite. They’re just worried about their fave since he disappeared completely this season.
- The Eva stan. They’re just most of the time praising her and her “fabulous mermaid hair”.
- The seeker of the truth 1. The one who only care about this ETERNAL question in the universe : Is Vilde a lesbian ? They’re no doubt for them, and the answer is “YES”. They dislike Magnus with passion and (like 99% of the fandom) can’t stand Magnus and Vilde making out session. They reclaim the truth from Julie Andem ALL THE TIME.
- The seeker of the truth 2. The one who only care about contradict them. “Vilde is NOT a lesbian”. They’re personally offended by this supposition. Why ? Nobodies know.
- The artist. They just draw or do “aesthetic edit” about Skam. Half of their caption is “Alt er love”-“Du er ikke alene”-“Be kind. Everyone is fighting a battle you know nothing about”. If you have an “aesthetic gif set” about one of the girl squad then you can be sure that you will find the picture of “a MAC lipstick slightly open with behind a white grayish background” in it.
- The Penetrator Chris Stan. Mostly young, they live in their bubble. They don’t take part of any fandom’s drama because they’re not invested enough. Isak ? Nope. Even ? Nope. Sana ? Nope. Noora ? Nope. LGBTQ representation ? Nope. POC representation ? Nope. ON-LY THIS FUCK-BOY MA-TTER FOR THEM. You easily recognize them because of their self-insert-imagine Readers where they are “William’s little sister and Chris secret lover” or when “You (Y/N) and jealous Chris are fucking in the kitchen”.
- The Noorhell shippers. Maybe they were the original, the first one, SKAM fans on Tumblr. Who knows ? They live in the past. They are still too invested in their shitty ship. They are an endangered specie now or maybe just hiding till the Wilhelm hate shit storm calm down.
- The pepsi-max girl stan. Just kidding, nobody care about them.
- The “Guys I have this incredible NEW theory : water is wet”. They are like weeks late in the season and just rehearse a theory who was already confirmed or already enunciated already by hundred of persons before.
- DISCOURSE GROUP 1. The “Sana’s season is too boring”. Mostly white girl, mostly straight, “they can’t relate to Sana because “she (an arab muslim straight girl) is too different” but they had zero difficulties to relate to Isak during season 3 (a white gay boy). Why ? You already know the answer. You can pair them with the Evak creepy fangirl, most of them came from this group. Until know, they were just a pain in the ass with their “ok it’s not that I don’t care about Sana (in fact, surprise, they don’t) but WHERE IS EVEN ?”. They cried when the S4 trailers was released. After their little crisis, they wrote 10K long ass meta about why in fact every little details in this trailer was related to Even and not Sana. Still delusional, they don’t want to move on. They don’t talk or reblog stuff from S4, only from S3 (OR S4 but only if it concerns Evak of course). They wrote many theories about the balloon squad and how problematic they were. This friday, they were apparently “proven right” to their greatest joy with Mikael and Even’s story. YAY. Since you can hear them yelling “all religions are evil and homophobic and needs to disappear (BUT if Islam could be the ONLY ONE to burn it would be nice”). Suddenly they adore Sonja (who was ”a bitch” during season 3) If you ask them not to jump to conclusion with Mikael (“the rat”), you are homophobic yourself and obviously awfully racist against white people (???).
- DISCOURSE GROUP 2. The Sana’s stan/ muslims one. They waited so long for Sana’s season and muslim representation. They have no time for your “lowkey islamophobic white ass” (���Sana is too white in this gifset” “ Pepsi-max girls sucks” “We don’t care about Willhell/ Evak/ Noora ” ( cross out the wrong indications) ). This season is very personal for them but to their surprise, it’s anything but what they expected. They have mixed feelings every new clip. They tried to educate the others Skam fans about some concept of Islam but people are not very receptive so they started to give up. Despite friday clip, they are still defending Mikael and the balloon squad against the various attack from the DISCOURSE GROUP 1. Easily offended, they can be a little too protective of Sana, her mom, and the balloon squad. It appears that they lost all their patience and decided for the best or the worst to let the fandom burn.
- THE OTHERS. The one who just enjoy the show, their favorite characters and favorite ships. They’re just watching the drama from afar. Sometimes, they low-key have a side but are too lazy to make a post about it. They’re just incredibly tired of this mess.
Bye.

(TRANS) 170417 Mogujie Interview with Lay
Mogujie interviews Zhang Yixing | The Hardworking Zhang Yixing never earns his living through his looks! There’s definitely a good reason behind the astounding rise in the number of his fans in recent years. Zhang Yixing, whose nicknames range from “little lamb” to “master of silliness”, has been known for his earnest efforts in public welfare, his humility and sincerity, how he treats everyone around him with care, and how down-to-earth he is in his job. While it may seem that our society now is greatly centered on one’s appearance, he still believes that working hard is far more important than a person’s looks! Today, Gugujiang (a Mogujie journalist) had the opportunity to interview the very busy Zhang Yixing! Want to know more about what we discussed? Let’s have a look! Zhang Yixing is here to say hi to all of you! (I’ve listened to it over 20 times, how about you?) [Yixing’s recording] Hi everyone on Mogujie, I’m Zhang Yixing~ You have to admit, the year 2017 belongs to Zhang Yixing! Our Yixing won this year’s All-rounded Artist of the Year Award at the 2nd China TV Quality Drama Awards this year, where he looked astonishingly handsome decked out in an all-black suit at the ceremony, thereby humbly accepting and reaping the first of his “fruits” of 2017. Zhang Yixing, who has had his hands busy collecting awards, also recently bagged home two big awards himself at the 5th YinYueTai V Charts Awards; with his solo original album Lose Control, he brought home the two big awards Album of the Year and Best Male Artist! For someone who has just released his first solo album, this is unbelievable results! We are so proud of his amazing achievements. From the composition of his own music and lyrics, to the producing of his own music, he could only sleep a few hours a day in that period of time, working so hard just to produce a work of his sincerity for his fans. Not only does our Yixing sing immensely well, his dancing skills also renders everyone speechless. Zhang Yixing, who has put in a lot of hard work in his dancing skills since a young age, seems to take on a different persona once he starts dancing; he really melted my heart! Do you remember Yixing’s “Wet Dance” at the annual Countdown Party concert on Dragon TV? You could become pregnant just at a glance, he was so sexy that he killed all of us! His choreography, which was the combination of power and beauty, coupled with that sweet voice unique to Zhang Yixing himself, has made every performance of his a grand ceremony of sights and sounds. Yixing once said that he hoped to mark the dawn of China’s music industry, and with all the effort he has put in through the years, step by step, he has indeed done so. Now, other than being a singer, Zhang Yixing has also joined the ranks of actors! In the 2016 drama To Be A Better Man, which earned great ratings, he played the role of the sweet and cute “Xiao Cai”. He could melt your heart with how adorable he was in every scene he appeared in. Let’s now move on to the famous topic of the role he played in The Mystic Nine. His role as Er Yuehong allowed the audience to see Yixing as the multi-faceted actor he is; instead of just being a sweet muddle-headed teenager new to love and relationships, his stellar performance in this role showed that he is a true actor who can also marvellously execute scenes of wrath, power, deep feelings, sorrow and pain. Yixing’s newest drama production, Operation Love, will be released on April 24th this year! Zhang Yixing will be showing us two different images of the same role in this drama - Yan Xiaolai both as a student and as a mature suit-donning adult. Anyone could be blinded just by seeing a few immensely handsome pictures of him from the shoot~ Our little lamb can melt your heart with just a scene from the drama! Let go of that girl (the actress in Operation Love, referring to the gif below) and come to me right now! On the topic of how there are some who still doubt the maturity of Yixing’s performance as an actor, our Yixing gave a most humble and sincere response. “I don’t recognise myself as an actor. I have worked hard and have been lucky to receive good roles to play. Ultimately, what’s most important is the audience’s opinion [of my acting]. When they say you can act well, you can recognise yourself as an actor then. I hope that everyone will give me more chances in the future, I will continue to work hard.” He said. In the media industry today, many artists have proven to be impatient in becoming famous as quickly as possible. It is thus refreshing to see that Zhang Yixing is an artist both humble and earnest, earning him the moniker of an idol filled with positive energy! Last year, he donated RMB 1 million to his alma mater, contributing to the school’s arts scholarship fund, to encourage his juniors to work hard and realise their dreams. Despite his waist injury, Yixing even went to visit children living in the poorer areas of his country, bringing them warmth and joy. As an artist who loves his fans, he told his Xingmis, “If you see me on the streets and you want to say hi, don’t be afraid to, just go ahead, whenever and wherever. But really, you don’t have to come to the airport to see me, I don’t want anyone to fall or get hurt or hurt others just to see me. Your parents will be worried.” As an artist who also takes care of his backstage crew, he even uses his own chopsticks to give food to his backstage crew when they are eating together. As an artist who also respects his seniors in the industry, he has been praised by famous senior actor Liu Xiao Ling Tong as someone who is very polite and courteous, always bowing and greeting his seniors. His senior, Huang Lei, who starred in Go, Fighting with him, also once praised Yixing for all the hard work he has put in as an artiste. When I received the task of interviewing Zhang Yixing, I was so excited that I couldn’t stop myself from asking him to do the 30 Quick Question and Answer exercise with me. But I was also concerned that he could be too busy (and therefore may have to cut short the interview) so I told him to just pick some questions from the list. However, our open and sincere Yixing answered them all! It was so touching I almost cried! Come on, let’s take a look at it! There’re so many interesting and exciting facts too! Mogujie interviews Zhang Yixing Mogujie: Do you usually edit your photos before you post them? Zhang Yixing: I’ll use a filter. Mogujie: What did you recently post in your group chat with friends?
