Best Siblings Round 3: Thian & Yang (To Sir With Love) vs Jiang Yanli & Wei Wuxian & Jiang Cheng (The Untamed)

[Submitted Reasons Under Cut]

Thian & Yang: "I know this drama isn't as popular but legit they are the best brothers I can't even. The fact that even as children they were so close and supportive. They have different mums and were raised to compete with each other, constantly told to hate the other, but the whole time they stuck by each other. And Yang is so damn protective of Thian and Thian will stand up for Yang and the whole series I'm waiting for the classic 'bros are close, need drama/misunderstanding so they fight' but it never happened?? Thian was literally engaged to the girl Yang loved but they openly communicate the whole time, work together find way out of it. And then Thian dealing with the whole sexuality and the coming out scene where he can't say the words and he doesn't need to bc Yang knows and he doesn't care, he makes sure Thian knows he's loved and he'll do anything to protect Thian's secret and be there for him. I just love them so much and they balance each other so well and I love how they could be interesting and complex characters with great plot and there wasn't a forced third act argument for drama. their mums did all the hating, but those bros stood by each other every step of the way."

Jiang Yanli & Wei Wuxian & Jiang Cheng: "I find it really hard to talk about them without going on a rant and crying. Yanli is the best big sister ever. She always puts her brothers first without fail and her care for them is the glue they need when they argue. Even though Wei Wuxian is not their biological sibling, trust and believe Yanli will shut down anyone who tries to minimize their relationship or claim Wei Wuxian isn’t her brother. In return, Wei Wuxian is fiercely protective of Yanli and will literally kill anyone who touches her. Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian both love her to absolute bits. The relationship between Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian is more complicated, but contains no less love. Ripped apart by circumstances out of their control on top of being constantly compared to each other growing up, they still have each other’s backs and canonically would die for each other and prove this multiple times. Yunmeng trio my beloved❤️"

LAWS OF ATTRACTION my Wishlist

Somehow this show has grabbed me by the satin collar and stripy tie, and I found myself wishing for some strange things to happen. So naturally, I turn to Tumblr to write it down and send it on my special krathong hoping it will come true...

I do not remember the last time I wanted a main couple to fuck about it this much. They are Hurting me with the looks and the flirting.

I want Charn to break Jeng-style, but about his past and mother and I want Tinn to hold him gently and kiss his tears.

I want a big-ass confession from Thaentai to his bodyguard Thee. I want him embarrassed and giggling like a little girl (don't ask me why, I don't make the rules).

I half wish their neighbors had something to do with Thatthep finding out his son was framed for the fire.

I want to see Charn and Tinn switch wardrobes, but have them both wear All Stars.

I want grandma to walk in on them when they kiss for the first time and immediately start to plan their wedding.

I think that's it for now. I reserve the right to update this list according to my varying levels of unhealthy & unpredictable lack of normalcy I'm apparently experiencing about this show.

*side note - watching LOA and To Sir With Love simultaneously is quite the experience. I will be screaming about this in @rocketturtle4's dms, but I will gladly talk this out with anyone currently watching TSWL. @thegalwhorants bestie, have you watched it yet?

The Secret World: Legends is one of my favorite older games.

I love the urban fantasy horror vibe where you find yourself imbued with powers by Gaia herself and then scooped up by one of three different secret societies so that they can use you to fix the problems that would threaten the world that they're each vying for.

Where you're just trying to use these new powers to help people while your puppet masters may or may not care about the smaller folk that get hurt in each disaster area.

And it kinda irritates me that I can't find any other games that have the same feeling.

Marshland Mixology

The story is finally complete! Please enjoy, dear friends, and look forward to enhancements to To Save What's Lost in the future!

For Collins, the humidity was the worst part. He’d dealt with hot before—you’d be surprised just how sweltering it could get at sea—but at sea there’s a breeze and salty spray. Sure, this truly wretched swampland was crawling with shade, but that didn’t matter when the air was practically dripping with body-temperature water. Keeping his brews cool was another challenge. Some of the more…

you learn something new about yourself every day!

They are actively trying to seduce each other. Tian with his I will teach you how to write and Jiu with that shirt. Sluts. The both of them.

Best Siblings Round 2: Thian & Yang (To Sir With Love) vs Kuafah & Daonuea (Star in My Mind/Sky in Your Heart)

[Submitted Reasons Under Cut]

Thian & Yang: "I know this drama isn't as popular but legit they are the best brothers I can't even. The fact that even as children they were so close and supportive. They have different mums and were raised to compete with each other, constantly told to hate the other, but the whole time they stuck by each other.

Kuafah & Daonuea: "I think khuafah is a really good older brother. He shows up for his brothers events and knows about the things going on in his life, even tho he’s way older and busy with his job he still checks in with daonuea and knows what’s happening in his life. Daonuea also is a very good brother and you can tell he really cares for khuafah. From the way he calls him and checks in routinely and tells him not to drive if he’s too drunk. Their relationship feels very genuine and loving. Also I’m pretty sure they’re half brothers but it’s never weird between them and they don’t treat each other any less because of it."

Random tswl thoughts 'coz zero energy to write a fanfic rn tho I want to 😩

- 'Jiu, what is your favourite colour?' 'Blue' 'Why?' 'Because that's the colour of the insignia on the handkerchief you gave me when we first met.'

- Tian buying pencils in Jiu's favourite colour

- Tian asking Jiu to pose for him by the roses in the garden to paint

- Jiu discovering the hairpin in the bottom drawer in Tian's room. Leading to Tian revealing in embarassment about his silly childhood desire to be as pretty as the Baisuzhen opera performer. That whole night, Jiu whispered sweet nothings to Tian, telling fondly and earnestly that Tian was already the prettiest star in his eyes, hoping that Tian could try growing out his hair to use that hairpin.

- Jiu kissing the snake bite scar on Tian's leg every night, thanking the gods quietly for keeping his Tian safe.

- Yingpin and Mat becoming the best of friends after Yingpin complimented Mat's outfit

- Yang telling Jiu all of the naughty pranks that Tian played as a child and the entire family believing that it was Yang who was behind them all. Yang never bothered that everyone pointed fingers at him. He was just happy to see his beloved phi smiling again and enjoying himself months after that 'slapping' incident, even if it was for a short moment. Tian's happiness was everything to Yang.

Dedicated to @moonlightchicken for introducing me to this masterpiece of a show. I know that this isn't the JiuTian fic you hoped for, but I promise you one for sure when time is on my hands :)

Why do I get the feeling that just about everything Mama Li is gonna ever say about Tian and Yang is fall under the “worse person you know just made a good point” category

End of the Year Update

It's time to look forward!

This post was uploaded yesterday at patreon.com/champthehippie There are a couple cliches that always pervade this time of year. They are pervasive, perhaps, because they represent emotions that most of us are feeling: “How can it be almost January again already?” and “I’m going to start the new year right!” and so on. Cliches, however, aren’t necessarily trite or useless. The fact that we all…

u guys shoudl um. ask me mundane thinsg abt my ocs.,

[smittenskitten]

Man got magic roofied by his mother so he would 'get together' with a girl

Too bad mom! He is gay and even your magic cicadas are not powerful enough to get the gay out of him

The drug effects have worn off. Tian: Oh no! What have I done!

Jiu doesn't want Tian to run away and then you guessed it. Tian's mom opens the door

I have laughed so much that my sides hurt

Tian's mom probably: this is all that hot gardener's fault. Nothing to do with the magic cicadas me and my sidechick powdered up into my son's tea.
