More appreciation for The World's Greatest is Dead, methinks. There isn't a single tumblr post about it (it's a chinese novel) so I am taking the dubious honour of being the first.
If you like Cale Henituse style protagonists that are apathetic because they have truly just been through that much shit, you'll love this one.
“What matters is you, not the state of you.”
MXTX I fear you cooked here.
Yo why tf is American Sign Language an option on AO3? Nothing against the American deaf population, obvs, but how tf you gonna write a fic in sign?
Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: 전지적 독자 시점 - 싱숑 | Omniscient Reader - Sing-Shong Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Kim Dokja/Yoo Joonghyuk Characters: Yoo Joonghyuk, Kim Dokja Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - An Observation Log of My Fiancée Who Calls Herself a Villainess, Alternate Universe - Royalty, Arranged Marriage, Mutual Pining, Requited Unrequited Love, tl;dr: you are a cold emotionless ice prince thawed by your peculiar bride only he refuses to love you and it is agony Summary:
Yoo Joonghyuk meets the man destined to ruin him at ten years old.
“I will make your life miserable, Yoo Joonghyuk.” His fiancé says, cream on his cheek. “And in turn, you will find your salvation.”
The boy he is engaged to is ridiculous and delusional. A country with him as queen will surely fall.
How interesting.
“I look forward to it.” Yoo Joonghyuk pours his bride another cup of tea.
There is no one, no king or tyrant or general, crueler than a fiancé.
Fucking delicious fic.
“But until then,” Kim Dokja mercifully relinquishes him. “You will have to make do with just me.”
I will chain you to a dungeon wall, Yoo Joonghyuk thinks blearily.
Reading volume 4 and I had to take a break because of the relentless sexual assault? Like first it’s Wei Wuxian kissing him while wanji is drunk, then it’s Wanji making out with him while Wuxian is blindfolded, then it’s Wuxian full on grabbing Wanji’s dick??? ALL WITHOUT CONSENT??
Like I get that they’re both down for it. But one’s drunk, one’s full on assault, and the other one is DEF assault. Like??
I have been very entertained but this is reaching disturbing territory for me? This may just be personal preference but I just can’t put it aside like “oh, but they like each other so it’s fine!!” If I liked a guy I still wouldn’t want him randomly grabbing my ass or making out with me when I don’t know it’s him or kissing me when I’m blackout drunk. It’s just. The fact that it’s becoming a pattern is just unsettling to me.
Obviously I don’t want them to sit down like lawyers going “do you consent to this?” “Yes I hereby formally consent.”
But just like, before grabbing his dick, just slide your hand down and make eye contact like “this good? Or are you gonna punch me?”
That’s all I’m asking
Lan Wangji spent nearly an hour examining his body before giving his verdict. “No major issues.”
Wei Wuxian stretched lazily and smiled. “Thanks.”
Guys?? GUYS??? Was wangji just there feeling him up for AN HOUR?? To do something he could probably do in 10 seconds?? GUYS!??
For sure he was just like “how long will he let me get away with it? How much longer can I touch him? Ok it’s getting a bit long I should let go. Soon. In a minute.” x10000
The Yiling patriarch: universally feared, killing thousands in one day, ruler of corpses.
Also the Yiling patriarch: “this child? Oh, I birthed him ;)”
pt 2 of He Xuan's adventures with the giant Xie Lian statue
This is canon. (To me).
Y’all I’m starting MXTX’s grandmaster of demonic cultivation and wtf is this???
“He knew he was my little cousin, but he still didn’t observe propriety and keep his distance, so who is the more shameless one here?! I don’t care if you don’t care about your reputation, but I still care about mine!! I STILL GOTTA FIND A GOOD MAN!!!”
Crazy… I’m dying
Gotta love tgcf, because no other novel would ever be able to convince me that Xie Lian's reaction to the Cave of 10000 gods was normal. But here? We know, Xie Lian has seen shit. We know he has the tolerance level of a rock and we also know he trusts Hua Cheng deeply.
So while HC is nervously sweating and slowly bursting into panic and Mu Qing and Feng Xin are desperately trying to plan their flight from the obviously insane and obsessive ghost king, Xie Lian is just like "Oh wow, that's sure a lot of statues of me. Well done. Should we move on?"
It’s the “should we move on” for me 😂😂
Like we are repeatedly shown the effects of Xie Lian’s centuries of torture, namely apathy. The man is like “oh, only exile? That’s fine then.” About Pei junior while everyone else is like “EXILEEE??!! 😱😱😱” and two seconds later Xie Lian is like “you know what? Slap it on me too I’m done here send me down” like this isn’t the worst fear of every single god.
He just gives no fucks. Him getting followed around by that misfortune demon and the whole time he’s like “wow!! My house stayed up for 3 whole days!! A miracle!!”
Like we really need to understand the effects of his misfortune cursed shackle. Living a fucking looney tunes life, EVERY DAY, FOR 800 YEARS. In 8 centuries, not a single moment, not a single minute of good luck. Everything goes wrong. Every time you try you fail. It’s inescapable. I would actually go insane. No wonder that Xie Lian, massively talented swordsmaster, calligraphy, etc could only be a scrap collector for most of the time.
He went through so much. He went through EVERYTHING, and he still laughs! He smiles! He finds joy in the little moments!
can't believe no one told me tgcf has canon group chat shenanigans
also the sex pollen
oh sure a mecha fight why not
wait heaven official's blessing has coffin boner too? 😭 I guess the author has a favorite trope because there's another one in SVSSS
"Body in abyss, heart in paradise," you say.
It would be better if you didn't. Because someone heard you. Someone who will not forget. Someone who will not let you go.
"Body in abyss... heart in paradise," you say.
Think before you speak. You might regret it if you won't. Think about who can hear you. You might regret it if you won't.
No because MXTX was crazy for this. In the first book, in the first CHAPTER, an innocent line. The myth about the crown prince who said the line to a random cultivator, and he smiled. And you scream, not because he turns out to be Jun Wu, but because of this one moment, the dominoes have started to fall, the end is inevitable, he has set his fate. It’s so tragic. It’s so tragic, because it wasn’t inevitable, not really. He could have broken. He could have given up. But because he didn’t, because he was unwavering….you can’t say it was entirely self inflicted, but you can’t say he didn’t do it to himself.

Why is this all that it takes to break my heart??
Ilona Andrews COOKED when she said 'the hottest quality in a man is self control'.
And then stuck with it for all her main male love interests. They can be different levels of kind, of funny, of honest, but every single love interest is the type that hold themselves in complete control, and honestly, she's absolutely right.
Nothing more unattractive to me than a man that is ruled by his anger, a slave to his lust, and doesn't act with intention.
Maggie is the only female protagonist I know to undergo horrific torture under a literal serial killer, and not only did she not break even though he literally tortured her TO DEATH, SHE FUCKING KILLED HIM AFTER!! FUCKING BRUTALIZED HIM!!
I started the scene and was like “alright. Here we go again. Perfect time for the male lead to rescue her and showcase how strong he is and how much he cares”
AND THEN HE DOESNT. SHE RESCUES HERSELF! NO DAMSEL IN DISTRESS HERE! He has to literally pull her off his mutilated corpse!!
All this by a modern 21st century woman!! Like not a “trained as an assassin since she was 12” woman, or a “deadly killer since birth” woman. A bona fide, normal uber eats driver who likes to curl up and read. Hasn’t even punched anyone before! And yet she has a body count of two!
She’s getting flashbacks and instead of turning back, she goes “Demons were meant to be confronted. I would face mine.” Badass?? Yes? PTSD who?
i love Maggie. heroine of all time. instacart driver who gets transported into her favorite fantasy novel and goes, i’m gonna save all of you. appreciates toilet paper. loves pastries. refuses to kiss her favorite character bc she knows too much about him and doesn’t want to take advantage. so fucking smart. doesn’t let anybody run roughshod over her. bludgeons bad guys’ (PLURAL) heads in. doesn’t hesitate to sacrifice herself for what she believes in. still takes a second to notice the hotness of dudes while in an unbelievably traumatic amount of stress. so compassionate. always tries to do the right thing. will yell at the scariest motherfucker in the entire world for messing up her plans. just cares so much. i love her i love her i love her
Maggie my darling my love
This is the post that made me read the whole book in one sitting on the same day. More people deserve to be influenced
