Crack fic idea inspired by an edit that described Katarina’s farming as her cultivating.

Katarina is in fact cultivating when she is farming, it’s a form of moving meditation for her and she does it religiously. She is also inadvertently following a dao that espouses ideas of growth, connection and empathy. This is a large part of why her dark magic is so strong, she accidentally powers her magic spells with her cultivation base resulting in Pochi’s existence.

The Claes estate has so many lighting attraction rods everywhere, everyone is pulling their hair out trying to resolve whatever issue is making Katarina so lightning conducive. No one dares to say anything like ‘lighting never strikes the same place twice’ around Katarina. The harem notes once that Katarina seems to get more attractive every time lighting strikes her but attributes it to their own bias and her getting older and growing into her features. Katarina is getting more attractive because her cultivation realm is increasing.

Katarina barely acknowledges any of the changes, however she adores being significantly stronger and faster than everyone else because she can flee her doom easier like this. People only figure it out when Katarina starts ‘dual cultivating’ with them. Katarina’s dual cultivation is just her solving their trauma, but it gives them a noticeable power boost that the early harem members didn’t get because her cultivation was very weak then.

Cezar as a fish is literally the cutest tiny thing🥹🤏🏽 I feel like I need to later draw Katarina and the others as one👀

Why are we forgetting that Katarina knows how to play the piano, like we need to see her play the piano more often!!

[queerandcartoons]

I just finished My Next Life as a Villianess: All Routes Lead to Doom and I have a question about tagging- is the abbreviation "mnlaav" or "arltd"? I keep seeing the tag "hamefura" and I can't tell what it's used for except for a variety of posts, so is it an abbreviation from the Japanese title? I would like to investigate but i already stayed up to 2am so i have to go to bed.... but i also want to know what tags to explore for fandom content and how to not flood a tag when i possibly make my own.

thanks!

This post is about the literary trope of Transmigration.

Imagine you are a four year old, and you suddenly gain the memories of a… let’s say seventeen year old.

You are not mentally 17 now. You still have the brain of a 4 year old. But you’re also not mentally 4.

It’s a juxtaposition, I believe the term is?

You both are and aren’t 17. You both are and aren’t 4.

Sure, you could maybe say that you’re just 4 years younger now, and proclaim to yourself that you’re mentally about 13-ish. Or just halve 17 and say you’re now mentally a super mature 8 and a half year old.

You could logic it whatever way you wanted to, but it still wouldn’t be quite right. It’s up for interpretation by you yourself, and nobody else… since you can’t really tell anyone that you’ve transmigrated.

But that’s in the case of a larger gap.

Let’s now say you’re a 13 year old with the memories of a 17 year old. How much a difference is that really?

It’s just 4 years in terms of development, give or take since different bodies develop at different rates. It’s still weird, uncomfortable, etc. But less dramatically so, yes? If you ended up dating someone of the same physical age when you’re… say, 15 or 16 — readers wouldn’t find it nearly as questionable, right?

And this is all assuming it’s a full takeover, and not a merger.

So now, let’s say you’re 13, and you’ve still got your memories, but you just suddenly also gained the memories of a 17 year old.

In that situation, are you still mentally 13? Or are you older? Or maybe just more mature?

Whenever I read a transmigration story, I always try to figure out what the author’s answers to these questions are.

In the better ones, they usually answer by making the Transmigrator just Oblivious about romantic interest towards them — off the top of my head, Katarina Claes and Kim Hajin come to mind.

Speaking of Kim Hajin — how weird is it for a late 20s woman to be lowkey into a 17 year old with the mind of an early to mid 20 something yr old?

Don’t get me wrong, I personally love Hajin & Byul together, but it’s still an intriguing thought experiment. I guess one’s answer basically depends on if they’re pro or anti ship though, doesn’t it?

Anyways; I’m just really into the thought experiments inherently surrounding transmigration stories. Feel free to reblog or whatever with any additions or thoughts you’d like to bring up!!!
