Just some soft Jiang Cheng praising Jin Ling after his first bullseye~🎯

I really wanted something cute and comforting between these two and thought @foxyjoy-art would like more chances to draw the best uncle❣️ And I'll never say no to more Jiang Cheng on my dash 🫰

ah. a nuanced story that allows for imperfect victims and portrays the confusing and contradictory nature of being human – particularly in a context that explores abuse, harassment and trauma. i wonder what people on the internet make of it... oh. oh no. oh no no no no no

I guess the thing that bothers me about the endless debates about the death of the Wen remnants and how culpable any particular character is and how excusable their actions were is it often feels like the goal is either to condemn various characters as monsters who don’t deserve sympathy or to excuse them as just acting as Society expected them to. And either impulse is understandable but still irritating.

Every character in this book who’s survived to the present day is walking around under the immense weight of both victim and perpetrator trauma thanks to this culture of clan extermination and if we’re not engaging with that then what are we even doing with these characters, you know? That’s the meat, that’s the juice! Does it change how the murderer carries the weight of their act if the murdered old woman was your own mother, or your enemy’s mother, or an old sex worker nobody cared about? If you did it for revenge or personal gain or to save your own life or the lives of your family? Does it change how you carry the loss of your loved ones if you understand the reasons they were killed? If it was socially sanctioned? If they were guilty or innocent, soldiers or civilians?

Wen Ning, undead, murderer and murder victim, saving Jin Ling, child of the clan that killed his clan, of the man he murdered, from the murdered corpse of Nie Mingjue’s attempt at bloodline revenge- saving him from the danger that all these other adults put him in and couldn’t protect him from- the cathartic power of that depends on understanding revenge killing as The Problem of MDZS, and not engaging with that means throwing away all that narrative power.
