PALESTINIAN LITERATURE READING LIST

PALESTINIAN BUSINESSES

-last updated 11/3/24-

[qilingxiong]

Jin Zixuan does not die at Qiongqi Way.

Jin Zixuan lives, because A-Jie has two younger brothers who get into trouble, and she has made them each carry a stack of various healing talismans since childhood. Jin Zixuan lives because A-Jie has always worried for her family, so she gave her husband the same talismans to keep in his robes.

One of those talismans activated as Jin Zixuan lay choking on his own blood in the dust, using the last dregs of his spiritual energy. Its spell sedated his body and slowed his life processes, gave him thirteen minutes to cling to life instead of thirty seconds. Just long enough for a second party of cultivators, Jiang Cheng included, to find the aftermath of the massacre and its single survivor. Inspection of the remarkable talisman proves Jiang Cheng right- the design is Wei Wuxian's. He doesn't know whether to laugh or scream.

Wei Wuxian, however indirectly, nearly kills and manages to save the life of Jin Zixuan. He does not save his own. The slaughter of several hundred Jin and the nephew of the Chief Cultivator is grounds enough for Jin Guangshan to call for his blood.

In the end, Jiang Cheng does not need to kill his brother because of Jin Zixuan. He watches Wei Wuxian fall to his demise, instead, because Jiang Cheng felt A-Jie slump dead in his arms, and she has a husband who still lies unconscious and an infant son waiting for her to come home. Jiang Cheng leaves a broken Lan Wangji at the cliff edge, refuses to look back, look down. Hanguang-Jun may be the one waiting for Wei Wuxian to return, but Jiang Cheng cannot afford to join him. There is family now he needs to protect for the future. The ghost of Wei Wuxian is a regret of the past.

In the days he waits for Jin Zixuan to wake up, Jiang Cheng scours the ravine below and tucks Chenqing into his belt anyway.

~*~

Jinlintai's healers are adept. After a week Jin Zixuan's full recovery is guaranteed, but as soon as he is strong enough to sit up and talk, he requests for Jiang Cheng to move Jin Ling and himself to Lotus Pier.

"Why?" Jiang Cheng can't help but ask. "A-Ling is the heir to the Lanling Jin. So are you."

"A-Yao can handle my duties, and he seems more organized than I am. I'm no use while I still have a hole in my chest, anyway," Jin Zixuan grimaces, shifting in bed to a less straining position. The white bandages crossed over his torso don't quite bury the outline of the wound, a crater of sunken flesh. "And if I have to be working in a sect this large I won't have as much time to see A-Ling. You have room in yours, don't you? I'll help."

Jiang Cheng winces. The halls of his sect are indeed still far too empty. "But you're talking about leading a life in Yunmeng. You're giving up your birthright."

"I'm talking about wanting to raise my own son, because A-Die barely did and I had both parents," Jin Zixuan snaps. "Jin Ling will grow up here with a father who's too busy to see him, and a mother who's dead and those left to tell him about her won't care. You will. The Yunmeng Jiang will."

"I..." Regardless of how much Jin Zixuan has changed since their youth, this is a far larger commitment, one Jiang Cheng didn't think he would make.

"So what if I never end up Chief Cultivator? Other people want it more than me. But unless you want Jin Ling to grow up without really knowing A-Li," a current of anger shakes in Jin Zixuan's voice, "let me take him away from here."

Jiang Cheng starts making preparations the next day.

The negotiation for Jin Zixuan to leave is an ugly one. Of course Jin Guangshan is reluctant to let his legitimate heir to step down, leaving him to settle for Jin Guangyao, but Jin Zixuan is adamant that he'll go with or without his father's blessing. If it's the latter, Jin Guangshan will never see his grandson again.

Only Jin-furen and Jin Guangyao come to see Jin Zixuan and A-Ling off, a month later on a late summer morning. Jin Ling will still have regular visits to Lanling, but Jin Guangyao will inherit the sect. There's no future Jiang Cheng can see where that will be a smooth transition. Though perhaps he'll turn out to be wrong, he thinks, as Jin-furen hugs her son with what might be a genuine smile for once and not a mask. "Make sure he stays safe, Jiang Wanyin," she tells him. It's not a question. Not for the first time, Jiang Cheng wonders how much Jin-furen longs to leave Jinlintai. She seems content enough for Jin Zixuan to be away from their sect, even if it means a child who isn't hers will lead it.

Jin Guangyao does not offer an embrace, but he bows with a murmur of, "Take care, Xuan-ge." He looks a little more than faintly pleased, when Jin Zixuan tells him he'll be a fine Chief Cultivator. It seems he was correct. There are people who want to lead more than Jin Zixuan, who accepted his role because he was born into it.

The boat kicks off from the river shore as sunrise turns the water a molten orange. "Look, A-Ling," Jin Zixuan says to the baby on his lap. "We're heading to your A-Niang's home. Our home, now." Lotus Pier lost two people from those who knew it best. Now, there will be two more among them.

This was a snippet from a years-ago started and promptly abandoned WIP, which unfortunately I will not be picking up again. However, I reread it back and didn't want it to live confined to my notes app forever, so here you go !

This was a threat, okay?!

[evercelle]

[disgracefulthings]

Shang Qinghua: My king, if I ever am to die, then please-

Mobei-Jun, cutting him off: This king promises to avenge you

Shang Qinghua: What? No, I was asking you to go talk to Cucumber-bro. He knows where my backup body is

Mobei-Jun: Oh... Then after I can avenge you?

Shang Qinghua: Sure, go for it

[muninnhuginn]

love it when characters do a sacrifice play ostensibly to save others but mostly so they don't have to face themselves

[yamalvr]

i have a personality flaw that always positions me on the side of characters who are hiding everything and refuse to accept help. like do NOT confide in people. confiding in people is the enemy. REAL winners lie and lie and continue lying until they ruin every single thing theyve got going for them & didnt fix a single goddamn thing. keep digging grandpa youre almost there

Hi! I have another fanfic to recommend! I almost died from laughter reading it. @andyousaidtruelovedidntexsist

whether i’m gonna be your wife or gonna smash up your life, i haven’t decided yet

by livinginaworldofnoise (@gh0st-0f-luke)

G, 2k, Wangxian

Summary: Wei Ying, I will come pick you up on the auspicious date. Lan Zhan Lan Zhan, What auspicious date? Why are you always speaking in riddles? And why do we still have this giant pile of gifts from your sect? Are we forming some sort of alliance, or is this an underhanded bribery tactic? Wei Ying To the Madam of the Yunmeng Jiang Clan, As an elder of the Gusu Lan Clan, I consulted a matchmaker and did not learn of any auspicious days suitable for this marriage. Perhaps it is ill-fated. Lan Qiren To the Gusu Lan Clan Elder, I have received your concerns. Perhaps a matchmaker in Yunmeng could offer a different perspective. Why don’t you send me Lan-er-gongzi’s Eight Characters? Yu Ziyuan OR: yu ziyuan and lan qiren negotiate wangxian's marriage (but they don't exactly share a common goal)

[need-him-pregnant-poll]

NEED👏THAT👏MAN👏PREGNANT *SEASON TWO* ROUND 4 POLL 26

TUMBLR! Who's getting pregnant?

Yue Qingyuan/Yue Qi (The Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System)

Maes Hughes (Fullmetal Alchemist)

Voting ended onJun 4

PROPAGANDA:

[Yue Qingyuan]

"The Sect Leader should get pregnant because the Sect Leader should be the picture of fertility and virility both, boost the usage of male child-bearing pills, and because the whole Sect would go crazy trying to find out who's the baby daddy. I think Yue Qingyuan could benefit from having to raise a child of his own instead of managing disciples, because Yue Qingyuan no longer has a family of his own and deserves one, and this way, perhaps he'd be forced to care about another person again. His strong and qi-rich body would also have an easy pregnancy and have a strong and happy child."

[Maes]

"The ultimate family man, the #1 wifeguy, wouldn't it be a joy for him to take some of the burden off his wife when the time comes to grow his family? (And shhh, everything is fine! Canon won't happen if we close our eyes and write fix-it fic instead)."
