so far the system has given him one (1) job and song qingshi botched it first thing out the gate, promising start. guess that's what comes of giving vague instructions
life as a pre-med student is hard enough without your brother's asshole boyfriend touching your notes. Neil better count his fucking days because as soon as mid-terms are over his ass is grass
Something I wondered in MDZS Is... Where is Changse Sanren and Wei Changzes graves at? Their bodies even? Surely SOMEONE recovered their bodies and gave them a burial
I want to see Wei Wuxian talking to his parents graves about Lan Zhan and introducing him to them like he did with Jiang Fengmians and Yu ziyuans graves...
If their bodies were never recovered or given proper burials there is also the fanfic angst potential of Wei Wuxian running into the place he lost his parents as a toddler and finding what does remains of thrm.
Considering they're wandering cultivators and the general world they inhabit I always just assumed that whatever passes for a grave would be nigh impossible to find again. There's no reason to assume someone would have recovered their body, after all! That's assuming that they not only told people where they would be and what they were doing, but that someone would be brave enough or care enough to venture into a place that may or may not have gotten cultivators killed just to find out if there's corpses left behind. That's a big ask for a stranger with no powers and no connections to these outsiders! I've always figured they were either:
a) eaten wholesale, nothing left
b) killed and their bodies left to be scattered by scavengers and gradually decay, in which case good luck finding a few random bones in a forest, or
c) buried by someone who did find their bodies, but who didn't know who they were and therefore had no way (or possibly motivation) to mark the grave in any way or contact anyone. Just a polite, anonymous grave dug for these poor travellers or brave cultivators, something that's probably forgotten about pretty quickly without anyone around to mourn them or upkeep them.
Though that could be a fun fic to play with... WWX and LWJ trying to piece together whatever little clues they have about their travel route and final days, talking to people to see if they can find any hints that a pair of cultivators passed by or where they might have been put to rest.
No, but the first book is on my shelf! It's in my mental queue of books I'd like to read.
My current danmei is The Wife Comes First v2 (which I am reading very slowly, admittedly), and I haven't decided what I'll read next... been waffling between Misvil v1, Erha v3, or Disabled God of War v1
"Boba tea," Jeremy said. "Flavored teas with tapioca balls? Really? If I tell Laila you've never had it, she'll lose her mind. Every cafe in a two-mile radius knows her name and face. Next time you're in the kitchen just take a look at the fridge. Half of her magnets are from tea shops."
Neil learnt how to ski on fourth-hand equipment he bought for about 15€ total. Helmets did not factor in. He thinks the one that was rented for him this time makes his head feel funny and he "forgot" it at the lodge. Kevin will lose his shit when he realises this.
Skiing headcanons because they're fun to think about:
Allison: went skiing regularly as a kid, has all of her own, quite expensive equipment, genuinely really enjoys it and is hyped about dragging her teammates up the slopes with her (also just a little smug to be able to show most of them up)
Dan: Has gone skiing exactly once before with Allison. Hasn't gotten enough of a hang of it to really like it, but likes hanging out with Allison and enjoys spending time in the lodge after.
Renee: Has never gone skiing before, she'd gone home to spend the break with Stephanie when Dan and Allison went skiing together. She's gamely trying though, because she can tell how much Allison wants to ski with friends!
Matt: Maybe went skiing a couple times with his mom when she was getting him into different physical sports to get his mind of his addiction. Very neutral to it in general. He's so tall that when he falls it's a Production
Kevin: Famously has Never Skied Before. Has heard it talked about as this Very Dangerous (Hand-Breaking!!) Sport so much though that he's kind of psyched himself out about it. Is easily annoyed by the fact that he is slow and awkward and is therefore Not Having Much Fun. Was absolutely the one who ensured that helmets were included in their equipment rental, he is not having his teammates concuss themselves over the break. He is going to hunt Neil for sport the second he realises that he left his helmet behind.
Andrew: Never skied. Never wants to ever again. Goes on the hill exclusively to make sure that Neil isn't going to get himself killed. Lasts about three runs and that's only because the beginner hill has a T-bar instead of a chair lift. Promptly fucks off back to the lodge where he can drink hot chocolate until everyone else decides to stop pretending that it's fun to fall face first into cold frozen water all day.
Aaron: Never skied. Also is not enjoying this. If Katelyn is around he would fuck off and ski with her where no one else can witness him being pathetic (he would enjoy getting to cozy up next to her on a ski lift and just chat and soak in the view). If she's not around, good luck even getting him on the hill -- he needs to be baited or it's not happening.
Nicky: Erik is very outdoorsy, and therefore got Nicky skiing a few times while he was still living in Germany. Nicky isn't proficient but he's good enough to actually have fun. Definitely annoys the heck out of his cousins that he's making this look easy -- he gets a snowball thrown at the back of his head by at least one of them at some point.
Neil: Spent a few months in a small northern town in [redacted] where there wasn't much to do in the winter except ski -- since this was what other kids his age was doing, he was allowed to buy/borrow some cheap old equipment for the sake of blending in. Never thought to mention that he could ski because as far as he's concerned he can't actually ski well enough to count, he was a total amateur compared to everyone else he was skiing with as a kid and hasn't done it since.
He could ski rings around almost every other Fox on the hill, and is very weak to the GOTTA GO FAST instinct. Skiing honestly seems like something Neil would enjoy. Allison does her best into coaxing both him and Nicky into going on harder runs with her and he definitely overextends himself at some point and absolutely eats shit.

Playing Tomodachi Life, and so far instead of Li Yu and Mu Tianchi getting together or Luo Binghe and Shen Yuan getting together, the game threw me a left curve and
HAD LI YU AND SHEN YUAN GET TOGETHER
AND THEIR EVEN MARRIED NOW.
And Luo Binghe has a crush on Shang Qinghua.
Also DESPITE Shen Yuan and Li Yu being married, Mobei June’s become a homewrecker because he’s just MOVING INTO THE NEWLY MARRIED COUPLE’S HOUSE.
Also Shang Qinghua had a crush on Shen Yuan and got hard rejected.
I mean if nothing else, I suppose that last one sounds like it could be canon 😂
Li Yu and Shen Yuan though... bonding over transmigration I guess but there is not a single brain cell present in that relationship, god help them their systems will play them like a bop it
