i honor of xue yang’s birthday i thought id share my personal version of how xxc finds out his friend’s true identity (i probably won’t write it ever. you know how it goes. but it’s important to me that it’s out there)

i’d really love for it to happen during a night hunt. they’re pursuing some particularly nasty monster and at some point it turns ugly. and dangerous. so much that xxc can’t keep up anymore. he’s quickly finding himself in serious trouble, desperately swinging his sword at the beast, he even falls down to the ground. and xy sees it. only he can’t really help him with whatever small knife he’s got for a weapon, so without thinking he does the only logical thing.

he pulls out jiangzai in all her two-bladed beauty and fights the monster himself. and it feels so good to not hold himself back anymore and be himself in a fight. he’s missed this even more than he thought. (bonus points if he used demonic cultivation on top of everything.)

of course he absolutely obliterates that poor evil creature. he doesn’t even quite notice what he’s doing until it’s over, only realizes how great he feels and how alive. maybe he’s a little out of breath when he comes to a halt in front of xxc who’s still sitting on the ground and hasn’t moved one inch since xy started his spectacle.

he and shuanghua recognized him, of course. immediately. and while xy laughs “all clear, daozhang” (he hasn’t quite grasped the situation yet) xxc is just sitting there like.

Do not interact unless you have read all my posts. You must be familiar with my work.

wizard college is going to kill me I swear to god. I just saw someone without a component satchel reach into their pocket and pull out a handful of LOOSE tapioca to use as a substitute for blood in their fell ritual. and it worked. I've never been so fucking mad.

Kinda like the idea of Richard ending up w/ a boyfriend later in life, then kicking it with Francis, who’s big mad when he finds out cus: “oh so I wasn’t good enough for u!?” Like it’s Mr. “I’m so straight, like so straight” who ends up w/ a man, and the all-but-out gay who’s suck in a loveless marriage w/ a women and is bitter that someone else chose their own happiness (even though he had every opportunity to do the same himself)

I’m really tired of seeing people broken up into labels of absolutes.

People are not just “good” or “bad”.

People are not a list of labels. 

People are complex, situations are complex.

I know, that makes it a lot harder when you want to just write off everything someone’s ever done as bad – but that’s not how people actually are, and it would do everyone good to stop pretending they are.

I am tired of hearing about the fear people have in putting themselves out there. And it is a scary thing! Putting yourself out there means subjecting yourself to people who want a really good reason to tear you down, who will jump at the first chance to feel “good” by labeling someone else as “bad”.

I reject this. I reject the idea that there should be fear in speaking up and talking about experiences and trying to reach an understanding of a situation.

I’m unhappy to see people spitefully urging others to cut off ties with their friends under the guise of “well, that person’s just inherently bad, so if you talk to them you’re bad too.” That is fucked up. You definitely have the right to let the friend know you don’t want to hear about whoever troubles you, but you do not at all have the right to decide who their friends should be. This includes guilt trips.

Anyway, just try to be more aware of others. Everyone else is a person like you. They might not have the same experiences as you. They might not understand how their words are harmful, or how what they’re doing is wrong. They certainly won’t if you never tell them.

Most people are trying to be good, but they’re going to mess it up sometimes. Try to keep that in mind. Even when people do really fucked up shit, sometimes they are trying to do good. “The road to hell is paved with good intentions” and all that.

Nothing gets solved, no growth happens when you put people into a box from which you’ll never let them escape.

Yes, you absolutely must be careful about people who have tendencies and patterns that are harmful to you. Sometimes people try to overcome those patterns and they fail, and you have to distance yourself from them: that is the sad reality of life. Sometimes though, they can overcome it. But they certainly won’t if the first thing you do is write them off after a fuck up. 

Be sincere. Use your best judgment.

Oh, I never forget that. In fact, that’s the worst part.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!

Pushing the idea that people are morally/ethically binary and permanently on one side or the other doesn’t allow room for growth. Things like cancel culture can further promote hatred because it discourages learning and empathy. You put this so eloquently and I hope this gets reblogged at least another 50,000 times!

Mistakes that I have made, and ways we learn to be better.

"I can't believe humans would hunt the thylacine to extinction, humans are fundamentally evil" Hey, did you know that extinction was long thought to be impossible, and within 50 years of humans realizing that extinction via overhunting was a possibility it practically stopped happening? Did you know that humans are so desperate to prevent more losses that they're funneling millions of collective hours and billions of euros into helping other species? Hours and euros that could be spent on humans, being spent on species on whom humanity's own survival does not depend? Did you know that due to an accidental introduction of rats, the Lord Howe Island stick insect population was brought down to 24 individuals and now there are tens of thousands of them?

This bug. This bug that, to most humans, is utterly useless, relatively gross, and completely foreign. Humans saved it because humans do not want to cause another extinction ever again if they can avoid it.
