Mxtx love interests and their relationships with captivity are fascinating and all, but I’d rather just focus on how funny Hua Cheng’s is in particular.
We have Luo Binghe‘s creepy replica bamboo hut and the tragic horror of watching him succumb to his worst impulses and try destroying the world to trap Shen Qingqiu by his side.
We have Lan Wangji warring internally with himself for years over his smothering need to hide Wei Wuxian from the world and save him from himself.
And then there’s Hua Cheng
Professional Gege Catch and Release Wildlife Expert Hua Cheng.
This man is a gege rehabilitation facilitator who does what he loves and loves what he does.
He tags his gege with a gps tracker so he can study his migration patterns. He humanely traps and relocates his gege whenever he’s strayed into danger.
If you hit a gege with your car, all you need to do is call Hua Cheng and he’ll be there with an animal control slip leash, a GoPro to promote his TikTok campaign promoting awareness of gege welfare and conservation to the masses, and Yin Yu is on the phone preparing the treatment center for a new arrival.
He’s one of those guys who lovingly cares for a feral cat colony in his backyard, providing handmade housing with heating and regular check ups.
He’s insane don’t get me wrong. But his crippling self doubt and unbreakable compulsion to provide merged in such a weird way, it comes off a little more wildlife rescue than I think is intended.

He said he couldn't let Xiao Xue freeze outside.

Reading a danmei is to smile and laugh in the first few chapters, because the authors are almost always truly funny.
Then you get past the first half, and you're increasingly assaulted with gloom, and your heart gets heavier and heavier as the realities of their situations sink in, and you're sighing deeply after every chapter, and a random paragraph makes you cry.

If life was fair, he'd have been born much earlier. In Egypt.
Tumblr media
I got a kitten a few weeks ago, and I'm well on my way to becoming a cat lady.
More photos of him than me on my phone, tons of videos of him sleeping and eating. God, do I love to watch him eat. I like to see his little mouth open.
It brings me immeasurable pleasure.

I was looking through conversations I had with a friend about two years ago, and I'm much less random than I used to be. And that makes me feel bad.
It's a combination of so many things. I stopped feeling like I could talk to my friends, I got into kpop and developed such a huge parasocial relationship with my idol that I was miserable for most of last year, I feel like I have so much to do all the time that there's no place for meaningless conversation, and my primary friend I talk to now so make me feel like I could tell them about the little things.
When's the last time I actually said "heyoooo, I'm bored let's talk about something" to someone? I don't think I could even now.
I stopped sending random lyrics in my head, I stopped sending memes, I stopped sending the thoughts that read like poetry to me.
I've gone quiet in ways I didn't realize.

Me: takes a screenshot
Reddit: sending to someone? 😚
Me: No, it's another huge pile of danmei recs from which I'll only read two slowly over the course of a year (or two).

A lot more people should use the "You Can You Up, No Can No BB" rule before opening their mouths to criticize.

"Snow’s table manners are atrocious—it’s like watching a wild dog eat. A wild dog you’d like to slip the tongue."
This line will never not end me.

The remake reboot prequel sequel industrial complex is killing me but the good thing is I don't have to watch any of that. I can just think "that sounds boring or otherwise doesn't interest me in any way" and do something other than watch it

It actually distresses me how few people are as crazy over Liu Yao as I am.
People who get into niche interests, how do you do it? Liu Yao isn't even niche and I'm losing my mind over how there's not a lot of people to share in the joy that is the story with me.
Because it's a great story. It's an amazing story. It's a sad story and a funny, hilarious, laugh out loud story; a tragic story, and at the end of it I could barely breathe through my tears and the strength of the nostalgia that ending aroused in me. I felt so bad that it was ending, and I refuse to believe I'm the only one who feels that way.
Where are you guys? My fellow Liu Yao lovers?

Despite myself, I have a great deal of respect for Shi Wudu.

When I was younger, I used to simulate my family's deaths in my head. In preparation. So that if it happened it wouldn't hurt so much. I do this for exams I think I'm going to fail too and I think it works, kind of.
But now I've met a person, and I'd like dearly to tell them that if they died, it would hurt me so very much.
