Today: ~I can show you the world~ I spent like 3 hrs on a photoshoot. A new comic is coming, but not just yet. I gotta get some sleep, and then do some work, and theeeeen make the comic. So here’s a little preview! I’m quite excited for it <3 Also, first appearance of Bichen. Ain’t it gorgeous? So heavy, too!

I wonder if flying on swords is a thing that happens in all Xianxia novels. Also what are the logistics of this ? I mean, do cultivators have to also put up an array to stop the wind from changing them into icicles ? Do some cultivators have some specific outfits for sword-flying ? How high have they tried to fly, historically speaking ? Also, how the hell do they manage to balance on a flippin sword ?? Balance has to be magically sustained some way or another, not everybody can be a fantastic snowboarding sword-flying genius. What happens if your sword is feeling down today and doesn't want to fly ? They are spiritual weapons after all. Is it easier to fly on a large saber like Baxia than on a flimsy sword like Suibian ? … what if, hypothetically speaking, you had a powerful spiritual weapon that was an awesome lightning whip (let's call it Zidian) and you wanted to see if you can fly with it ? Would you invent the Xianxia equivalent of a helicopter ? OO Has anybody tried to fly on their spiritual weapons that aren't swords/sabers ? Imagine a cultivator flying on a guqin or a flippin flute. HOW DOES IT WORK ?? So many questions.
