I'm currently watching the MDZS donghua with my Mom - and yes, I'll make a list of her opinions again when we're done, but my schedule right now is crazy, so I don't get to sit down in peace as much as I'd like.
This isn't about that. This is about me warning her that I'll sit her through The Untamed, eventually. (Assuming I'll survive this. Every time Jin Guangyao shows up on the screen a beam at him, actually whooped in his first scene because it's so, so late in the donghua and WHAT AN ENTRANCE THEY GAVE MY LITTLE GUY, and I've said I adore that man. She's going flay me alive because she's not going to feel the same way.) She's all for it, but I warned her that the special effects are ... ahem. Not it.
Her response: Is it phallactite-level bad?
Me, trying to process this question for a minute and failing: WHAT-level bad?!
Her giving me a huge grin: You know, pallactite. Like the one from Kirk.
It took another hot minute for me to get what she meant, but then I told her that I knew she was okay with the horrible effects and props from Star Trek, but it's one thing in a no-budget 60s show and another in a modern one so I wanted to warn her. I also said the props and costumes and what not are good and SOME of the effects are, too, but she shouldn't think too much about how physics work most of the time.
(Look up the scene in 'What Are Little Girls Made Of' with a stalactite. Or just look for Kirk and stalactite. The scene is about a minute. If you find a still of Kirk holding a huge, unfortunately shaped prop - yes, that is, in fact, a real still.)
Now keep your fingers crossed that I live long enough to do this.
Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead
Shi Qingxuan is missing and He Xuan is uncooperative. Xie Lian isn't convinced he wants to let his friend's fate rest in the ghost's hands alone, so he and Hua Cheng look for him on their own.
I'm not a fan of fall. Or winter. Or anything that isn't scorching hot summer. Seriously, give me a city at 40°C any day, that's more than fine. The one bright light is figure skating. It makes the whole freezing drab wetness bearable.
I want to do unspeakable things to their Nie Mingjue.
Yonah bought me a coffee and asked for NMJ in this crop top, which obviously I was delighted to fulfil

reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something
