Genuinely unable to comprehend how Jiang Cheng went through the fall of Lotus Pier, the Sunshot Campaign, the deaths of all his family members, and then was left alone to raise his sect from the ashes, all while raising a baby that was barely 4 months old, all before he reached the age of 20.
"Oh, but he messed up so many times, look how Jin Ling turned out–" Obviously?? He would have??? Man had no idea what he was doing?? He didn't have the privilege of mourning in seclusion or having someone else lead his sect, he had to do everything on his own.
When you think about it, Jiang Cheng working hard and bringing Yunmeng Jiang into the Big Four once again is insane– imaging having to rebuild it from the ground up, imagine having no real connections with other clans (save for the Jin, and even that barely), imagine the political disadvantage he was left with after his brother died.
Because politics are ruthless, and all everyone had to say to shut up Jiang Cheng in any kind of setting if he is acting up is "Well, you let the son of a servant, a man you called brother, run rampant in demonic cultivation," and it doesn't matter that that's not how it went, the shadow of the Yiling Patriarch is just something Jiang Cheng can't easily shake that early on. I have no idea how it actually went for him, but I can't imagine anyone was that eager to come to his aid in any kind of way.
The Jiang clan triumphing isn't even attempting the impossible, it's looking at the impossible in the face and laughing.
Kudos to him because I would have simply killed myself and been done with it.

Help I can't stop making AUs
this is sort of inspired by @ tenten18282's Hyrule x four swords AU, but yknow, botw link instead
I'm just gonna start rambling about them under the cut uwu
So from left to right, we have Safflina (Saff), Thistle, Violet (Vi), and Nightshade (Night). Violet was the one who suggested they nickname themselves after flowers and no one had better ideas so here they are
Saff is the designated leader of the group simply because. uh. He's the only one who is willing to actually go talk to people, the other three would rather do so much else. He's the most empathetic and courageous. He's also their best cook!
Thistle is the fighter. He's extremely skilled with any weapon and enjoys monster hunting. He's pretty impulsive and will always be the one to initiate the fight. It's not that bad because he can usually win any fight he starts, but he can get pretty reckless.
Vi is the adventurous one, who can and will get lost the moment he runs off to grab a beetle. He just really likes exploring but really dislikes fighting. He steals the slate constantly to take photos. Night usually tags along with his antics to complete the compendium and also make sure he doesn't end up too lost.
Night is the one with the braincell. He's also extremely stealthy, and prefers to sneakstrike enemies instead of fighting them head on. He just enjoys learning about anything and everything. He knows a lot of stuff, but isn't the best at execution. He's only allowed to make elixirs lol
Vi and Night are probably the most interesting ones design wise, Vi constantly changes outfit depending on his needs but usually wears a combination of the climbing gear and the stealth armor. Night wears a combination of the stealth armor and the radiant set. I think I want Night to have a scar on his left eye. I based his hair after sheik because. sheik mask in game. His hair is also long and braided. Vi's hair is very long and horribly unkempt, he hasn't bothered to cut it at all
Saff wears the Champions tunic, usually a hylian hood, and some soldier armor. He's also the only one who wields the Master Sword. His hair is the usual smol ponytail. Thistle wears the full barbarian armor with crimson dye. His hair is basically the same as Vi's except he sometimes accidentally cuts some of it off with his weapon, so it's also horribly choppy
Saff and Night are the only ones who are concerned about the plot what happened 100 years ago, Thistle and Vi are content to just. Leave all that behind. Save the world and Zelda, and then go back to their new life. Well for Vi his main motivation is learning about the history mostly, and Saff actually wants to know what happened to himself.
I mean, that's not entirely descriptive of what they actually want, its complicated. Thistle, Vi, and Night are a lot more detached to their past self and they feel really guilty about it, but that's not stopping them from pursuing the life they want to live now. I guess. Like of course they'll save Hyrule, but after that? They want to do their own thing.
If that makes senes :V honestly this AU is basically two identity crises stacked on top of each other and multiplied by four lmao

yknow i never noticed the sheer rareness of images having ids or alt text on this website until i started adding alt text to my art (and trying to remember to add it to any images i post in general, especially text screenshots) and that makes me kinda sad

i feel like a lot of the 'i hate kids' crowd would be more tolerant if they understood that due to a kid's limited experience of the world that 4 hour flight might just be the longest they've ever had to sit still for or that trapped finger might literally be the most pain they've ever felt in their short life or they might not have ever seen a person with pink hair ever so of course they want to touch it or nobody's told them yet that they can't run around the museum and they only just learned cheetahs are the fastest animals so of course they want to put that to the test. how were they supposed to know etc etc.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
#yeehaw#1k#5k#10k#posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference#edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense#also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags#1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now#he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic#2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign#like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock#3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing#it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is#extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once#it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life#i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about#Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect#if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it#aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week
