Welcome and come in!

My name is Dot or Dotdot! It's been years since I last published my fanworks and I'm trying to gain back that confidence. I draw traditionally because I can't afford a tablet 😔 and have a neverending amount of headcanons and wips.

But he did tell you, after you scraped your legs to catch him when he fell through the grasp of that strange plant, after your hands got wrinkly from wringing wet scraps of fabric to put on his head, after you presented yourself and told him where he is and that he'll be okay (because you knew, you hoped, he would be.) after he cleared his raspy throat, he did tell you, that his name is Yi. ___ Shuanshuan and Yi live together in Peach Blossom Village for two years. Some days are easier than others.

Hi omg hi I'm finally properly showing just how insane I am over Shuanshuan and Yi to the general public !! Yeyy

More Hui posting

A friend and I had an idea of Kuafu finding them at a party with the full get up on. Conversation ensues.

(info dump below)

I would say this is an AU of sorts at this point xD the general idea is that total transition is accepted on Penglai but people still struggle to wrap their heads around nonbinary identities or genderfluid folks. Which is why Yi struggles so much with their own gender experimentation. To imply he wants to be a woman would have people expecting the change to be permanent, and it's not. This is on top of how much he cares about how people perceive him. He wants to be seen as the image of a serious professional and being confused over his gender identity feels like a threat to that to him. So! She keeps it a secret.

I should also say that "Hui" as a persona works for Yi to know themself with a mental barrier that doesn't hurt their pride and lets her be herself while still in denial of their identity. ("Yi isn't a girl. Hui is a girl. Yi takes himself seriously. Hui is loud and unapologetic." is a mentality they use to cope for a while.)

(don't worry though. They accept themself eventually. It's just a slow process 😌)

MORE EPIC THE MUSICAL BUT MAKE IT NINE SOLS!

This time it’s Suffering. Because nothing is real and Kuafu is a delusional yearner.

You cannot convince me that Kuafu didn’t toy with Ruyi’s sensitivity settings to see what a kinder version of Yi would feel like only for him to realise it feels off because it’s not him. I state my case.

I’m sick and tired of found families we need more found toxic workplace environments

‼️Tw depictions of dysphoria ‼️

I didn't think I would get to share this but since the reaction to my genderfluid Yi has been so positive I'm posting it here!!

Lyrics translation:

The more I wish, the more I drift away

I'm a stranger in this body

All this peace makes me desperate

I go out a lot, sometimes I come back

Nightlife

[episyn]

[ID: Yi from Nine Sols wearing a short, non-traditional Hanfu with a puffy shirt beneath, making it look like she has a bit more of a chest. On her forehead, she has a lotus-like symbol on it as makeup, and she's wearing a bit of lipstick.

Notes on the outfit read: What if she puffed out the top part to make it look like she has more of a chest? (Also puffy shirt underneath to hide the stabilizer? and add some volume).

Comic: A stranger asks Yi, "What's your name?" Yi hesitates for a moment, before quickly responding, "Uh- Hui!" The stranger swoons teasingly, asking, "Ah! What a nice name... I presume the one that means "wise"?" Yi quickly responds, "E-YEAS!!!" as she goes through panicked internal dialogue: "OK. Feminine name. Too obvious??? The title of innovator what the fuck was I thinking fuck fuck fuck whatever." /end ID.]

@/dotdot-is-here's genderfluid Yi because they've been bouncing around in my head for a bit .. I like her . I know that's probably not how she came up with the name but it's a cute thought..

[dotdot-is-here]

OH MY GOD.... THANK YOU 😭♥️ SHE'S SO PRETTY IN YOUR STYLE

[dotdot-is-here]

I made Yi genderfluid. #myrep

The basic premise for this scenario is that she goes out as a woman at night but under a different name because they don't want to be recognized as Sol Yi. Which leads to Hui, the party girl persona

[ID 1: a drawing of Yi from Nine Sols in a simplified, traditional hanfu dress. /end ID.]

[ID 2: a drawing of Yi sitting and smiling shyly, wearing a shirt with two herrings on it and some loose pants. /end ID.]

I drew them in outifts before I got sidetracked in the margins. If you can tell. That Mess under the cut

[ID: A comic of Yi and Kuafu from Nine Sols. Yi asks, "Hey, Kuafu?". Kuafu appears mildly confused.

Yi continues, "I'm trans."

Kuafu pauses, even more confused than previously, before asking, "Aren't you already trans?" Yi responds, "I- yeah! But different! I'm not a man anymore. I'm… not a woman either!"

Kuafu then enthusiastically responds, "Oh, so you're 无性别 (Mandarin for Nonbinary)?"

Yi responds, "I guess. I dunno. Could you call me 无也 (Neopronoun meaning nothing there, pronounced as "ta")?" Kuafu responds, "Sure! But isn't that just 他 (mandarin for "he", pronounced as "ta")?" Yi immediately replies, "No it's spelled with 无 (wu) and 也 (ye)." /end ID.]

No they would not fucking say that I just thought it'd be really really funny. I would've written this entire thing in Mandarin if I had the energy to. I think one of my favorite things about Mandarin is that most pronouns sound the same when spoken 😭 relative of mine didn't know how to use English gendered pronouns correctly up until a couple years ago
