A lot of stuff floating around about the Chinese concept of hun and po souls in reference to MDZS at the moment, as well as the usual stuff concerning WWX's cultivation, yet again.
Very, very brief explanation on hun/po: When a person dies po souls stay with the dead body and eventually go back to the earth. The hun souls go up to the heavens to face retribution and eventual reincarnate.
Firstly, before I continue, this is not the same for all xianxia novels and beliefs around hun and po. But, from what I can see in the Chinese text, MXTX has it that the hun souls that usually go off to eventually reincarnate when someone dies are trapped on the earth and form ghosts/various types of moving corpses when they possess resentment. Hun is mentioned in a number of places and the most compelling evidence I've found is the name of the Gusu Lan's "evocation" song which is aptly named 招魂 (zhāo hún) - this is the song they play when they are trying to contact a restless spirit using a part of it's body or a beloved item.
This shows us that it is not the po souls they are trying to save or suppress, but the hun souls - they are actively trying to help people move on, unless they have to suppress or even destroy them (preventing them from reincarnating ever again) if they refuse to see reason and pose a threat to the living.
WWXs cultivation gives the souls trapped on earth another chance to move on if 'liberation' does not work. Rather than suppressing the soul and prolonging their time trapped on earth or completely destroying them as is the third and final option available to cultivators, he has invented a fourth option - to help the souls use up their resentment (in a safe and controlled manner) that allows them to move on and reincarnate also. WWXs cultivation method is NOT EVIL and does NOT DISRUPT the reincarnation cycle - he's helping the souls that would usually be suppressed or exterminated. He is saving hun souls by using guidao, he is helping them move on and live again where most cultivators would hunt and destroy them instead.

Wei Wuxian has killed a lot of people. The numbers are in thousands, which is mind boggling really. But not one of those kills were for his own gain, not one murder to gain political traction, not one murder to hide his intentions or plans. He didn’t kill someone for insulting him or his parents. He has killed though in war, in revenge for decimating his sect, in self defence when pushed into a corner. His one mistake that killed Jin Zixuan, when he actually lost control, he agonised over it. He didn’t intend for it.
Please don’t put him in the same box as the people who killed just for fun, or to hide their own crimes, or a sense of superiority or whatever.
Wei Wuxian is murderous badass with morals. Thank you very much.
#Wei Wuxian was never evil#his intentions were always clear and righteous#I guess people have problems with righteous#but that’s just hypocrisy because they apologise and make up righteous excuses for actions which are clearly not#okay rant over I think#mdzs#mo dao zu shi#wei wuxian

I love that Wei Wuxian thinking Lan Wangji is hilarious isn’t like. A fluke or him being blinded by love or whatever. Lan Wangji is shown to have this really interesting, sneaky sense of humor. He’s so deadpan and subtle and underhanded about his jokes and while obviously not everybody enjoys that sort of humor I personally do honestly think he’s hilarious! But the thing about his sense of humor is that you need to be paying attention. Lan Wangji’s jokes don’t draw attention to themselves — usually they’re for just him, he’s entertaining himself first and foremost, but Wei Wuxian came along and actually paid attention and saw what Lan Wangji was doing and went “wait a minute this guys a riot actually” and that’s so!!! Good!!! It’s so good.
I love them.

To the Immaturity of the Season
CW! Blood, murder
I’d like to think Mama Lan made a choice of leaving love in her boys’ hearts over bitterness. I’d like to think there was an initial attraction between mama Lan and qhj, removed from other social context and ties that they later had to discover. I’d like to think mama Lan found a value in remembering that, as fleeting it had been. I’d also like to think mama Lan had a hint of sardonic sense of humour while qhj was a blushing fumbling straightforward boy.

Tbh, I think if you read an mxtx novel with the expectation that the story’s hero is meant to learn some valuable lesson that fundamentally changes their character and views on life, then you are reading her books wrong. There’s not a single mxtx protag (currently) in existence who changes by the end of the story. It’s the world they live in that is changed because of their actions:
—Shen Yuan’s Shen Qingqiu transforms a toxic masculinity fantasy into a queer romance in which the unhappy stallion protagonist with a harem in the 100s is given his monogamous happy ending with a husband he actually loves and values with reciprocity. They fuck off to their forever honeymoon after exposing the corruptness of the cultivation world that ruined Luo Binghe’s life to begin with, and all of this was only possibly because Shen Yuan was just a genuinely nice fucking person. The world lives to see another day and a fuckton of people who died (or didn’t even get to exist) in the original stallion novel get to live long, more fulfilled lives in Shen Yuan’s revision.
—Wei Wuxian is killed for sticking up for a condemned clan, is resurrected against his will, and still stands by his actions in his first life while protecting those that continued to wrongfully condemn him. As a reward, the corpses of the people he died protecting save him and his loved ones (and the rest of the bystanders who killed them), he bags himself the most perfect and perfectly matched man in the cultivation world, and he continues to help others and do what he wants to the ire of the cultivation world who are now too embarrassed to fight him. The younger generation look to him as a beloved teacher, protector, and role model to aspire towards.
—Xie Lian rebelled against hierarchy as a beloved prince of a prospering kingdom, then as a beloved god against the older gods, then as a reviled scrap gods against the then most popular gods of the present day. He was always willing to lend a hand to anyone who needed it and to never hold resentment even if that kindness blew up in his face (and it often did). He gets to marry the man (ghost) who has seen him at his best and absolute worst and chooses him unconditionally, something no one else has ever done before. At the end of the novel, he is the god that all the other gods look to for guidance and strength.
None of these stories humble these characters for being good people. Even when their morally righteous actions net them unimaginably terrible results, even when they falter in the face of their failures, they ultimately remain true to their goodness. And none of the books humble them for that, because being good is not a character flaw. So in short: please stop talking about how mxtx protags “needed” to learn valuable lessons to “be good people” when they were already good people from the very beginning. These stories are not about how the world changes people but how genuinely good people can change the world just by actively being kind even with no benefit to themselves and especially if that kindness leads to detriment.

I had a dream teen LWJ got hit with a mind reading spell and found out that:
1. WWX thirsts after him big time
2. Not just WWX thirsts after him big time

I was re-reading the Intrusion extra recently and I remembered just how much I loved the casual intimacy between wangxian, so I decided to make a list of my top 5 favourite wangxian moments from this extra in no particular order:
1. Lan Wangji leaving Young Master Qin to wait outside their room until Wei Wuxian woke up much later in the morning, and only after being “hugged and caressed” a lot by Lan Wangji (ft. poor Sizhui who had to first drag Lil’ Apple away from bamboo shoots and then lie to Young Master Qin that his senior was ill to explain why lwj and wwx weren’t to be interrupted)
2. Wei Wuxian wearing Lan Wangji’s clothes. Both the time he is stated to roll up the sleeves many times because they’re too long for him, and this:
[Lan Sizhui] wanted to tell him, Senior Wei, you accidentally wore HanGuang-Jun’s clothes again. But after some thought, he still swallowed the sentence.
After all, Wei WuXian wore the wrong clothes every couple of days. If he reminded Wei WuXian every single time, wouldn’t he die of fatigue?
And every time Senior Wei would wear it anyways because he thought it was too much trouble to change. Feeling that there was no point in reminding him anyways, Lan SiZhui decided he’d much rather pretend he saw nothing.
3. Lan Wangji hugging Wei Wuxian to comfort him when they’re discussing how Young Master Qin talks about servants and the conversation drifts to Wei Wuxian’s past (and Wei Wuxian hugging back, of course)
4. Wei Wuxian laughing so hard at the thought of Lan Wangji being a virgin that Lan Wangji has to wrap an arm around his shoulder to steady him (followed soon after by Lan Wangji pulling Wei Wuxian into his lap and Wei Wuxian complaining about how unfair it is that people misperceive the two of them)
5. Wei Wuxian eating the apple the fierce corpse brought over, claiming he’s “trying to save Hanguang-jun some money” and Lan Wangji taking it away and saying that would never be necessary
Honourable mention to how in-sync the two of them are whenever Wei Wuxian is about to start saying absolute bullshit to get Young Master Qin to tell them the truth and Lan Wangji shows no indication that he’s lying his ass off

Usually when people write about LWJ telling LXC about his sexual awakening re: WWX, it’s done for crack. Either LWJ is too sheltered and inexperienced to realize how TMI he’s being and LXC has to just grin and bare it, OR LWJ is too sheltered and inexperienced to realize how totally normal his experiences are, and LXC has to reassure him that wanting to sleep with the man he loves is perfectly fine, actually. It’s funny! It’s a cute little background thingy I’ve seen in lots of fics. I don’t have anything against it.
But. I think people maybe forget that LWJ’s whole Thing with being horny for WWX wasn’t just “pretty boy make dick hard.” Lan Wangji is a sexual sadist. His attraction to WWX brought with it the realization that he wants to hurt someone, force them, take away their autonomy and make them like it.
LWJ is a good person. For any decent person, that’s a Lot to have to grapple with! But LWJ is also the son of an atticwife. There’s a non-zero chance that he and his brother are the product of sexual assault. The guy has like. Good and valid reasons to find his sexual desires disturbing, frightening, and even repulsive.
I think it makes sense for LXC to be the person he confides in about all of this. I think there’s a lot of really interesting avenues of exploration you could take with that!
Maybe I’ll add it to The List.
