Do ya'll ever think about how every character in MDZS is living in a radically different genre of story?

Cause yeah, sure Wei Wuxian is living in a danmei fantasy novel with strong romantic comedy elements, but if you slide over a bit Lan Wangji is living a serious and heady drama about regret, loss, yearning, the passage of time, and ultimately atonement.

Scooch on over to Xichen and your in a straight up Greek tragedy, right down to the parable about hubris and trust. Jin Guangyao is living meanwhile in a political dark fantasy al'la Game of Thrones, Nie Huaisang is in a Gothic moody Monte Cristo-esque reflection on revenge and deception, and while Lan Sizhuhi and Jin Ling are living in two VERY different YA fantasy books ('magic boarding school/secret orphan of destiny' and 'Steven Universe style coming of age/discovering all your family are some flavor of evil and magic' respectively).

Everyone connected to Yi City is living inside a dark psychological thriller/horror flick, except for Xue Yang who is in a Found Family/Enemies to Lover fic right up until he isn't.

Jiang Cheng's entire life has been one long soap opera, and it is showing no signs of stopping anytime soon.

Thoughts and Prayers, appearently

I have no talent to make memes but I NEED someone that does to make one of the incorrect quote: LWJ: I think I like Wei Ying. Thoughts? LXC

Someone asked, I delivered, and it sucks- the watermark is work in progress.

Lan Wang (b. 1953), artist, was born in Beijing, China and at sixteen was sent to work as a farm labourer in China's Great Northern Wilderness for nine years. She met the artist Jiawei Shen in 1975, before going on to study printmaking at the Lu-Xun Academy of Fine Art in Shenyang, graduating with a Master of Art. Wang then taught at the academy, as well as working and exhibiting as an artist. One of Shen's paintings – a depiction of heroes of the Chinese nationalist movement – necessitated his departure from China in 1989. Wang was pregnant when he left; it was two years before they were reunited in Sydney, where Shen met their daughter Xini for the first time. A painter, printmaker and woodcarver, Wang's work has been included in solo and group exhibitions and is held in private and public collections, including the National Art Museum of China in Beijing. Wang is a founding member of the Art Trail of Bundeena, south of Sydney, and regularly opens her studio for visitors.

Gary Grealy created diptych portraits of husband and wife, Lan Wang and Jiawei Shen, each holding a photograph of the other in their youth, referencing their homeland and separation. As the artist noted, 'I wanted to create a work that was about reflection and stillness.'

things that totally happened on The Untamed

[neverdoingmuch]

the sunshot campaign wangxian dynamic is so iconic because wwx is out there all like i’ve turned to this unrighteous path, and it’s hurting me and i can see the way it’s twisting me into a monstrous shadow of myself but i can’t bring myself to care. i can see the way that it’s scaring my friends and family but i have no choice to drive them away so they don’t discover my secrets. rumours have started to spread about me - all of them crueller and more upsetting than the previous - but i have no choice but to accept them, to lean into them, for if i dont people will start asking questions and i cant afford that. i have a secret that i must take to my grave and with each passing moment my death draws nearer. and lwj is just like “dear diary, today i offered to help wwx and he called me a bitch to my face before storming off. it was a nice view as he left, but i regret the way our conversation went. i’ll try again tomorrow."

Notice that even though they had to censor out the good bits in this scene, they still had Wei WuXian take off Lan WangJi’s forehead ribbon (as it’s lying there folded beside him) <3
