That's Right, We Have An Update!

If you see this, reblog and put in the tags what extremely niche research topic you've found yourself derailed by while attempting to write fanfic. Bonus if it was supposed to be PWP.

Dinghai Love Week 2023 Day 1: Chile Chuan Under the Yin Mountains.

Horses are a blessing and a curse for Dinghai Fusheng Lu readers and I didn't want to leave them out of the event. Here's Huleishan, pride of the Akele tribe, hanging out in Chile Chuan.

Random question for my fanfic writing friends:

When you go to AO3, what’s your total word count?

when did “lmao” become shorthand or w/e for “i’m fucking suffering”

🚨⚠️ATTENTION FELLOW WRITERS⚠️🚨

If you use Google Docs for your writing, I highly encourage you to download your work, delete it from Google Docs, and transfer it to a different program/site, unless you want AI to start leeching off your hard work!!!

I personally have switched to Libre Office, but there are many different options. I recommend checking out r/degoogle for options.

Please reblog to spread the word!!

Can y'all BELIEVE this art? Tiira, you're the best ;A;

I participated in the TGCF Mini Bang 2022 as an artist for Withering Lotus, a modern heavy metal au fic written by Yabanned and beta-read by Leonidskies!

Working with Ban on this series has been an absolute joy and I love this fic and everything about the work process more than I can describe. Ban is a lovely writer and I recommend this fic to everyone who enjoys mostly fluffy and healing modern au fics with a twinge of angst! The Xie Lian lotus cover art was based on an idea and a sketch from Ban!

Happy Mask Collector

A happy birthday to Happy Mask Collector! I hope you like it!

His hours were hung beside the doors of the clock tower, the smiling salesman obviously taking over the empty space for the three days he claimed to be in town. Link figured that whatever it used to be used for was beyond him, the stones that made up its walls overgrown with moss and the waterwheel frozen in time.

Between the hours of 11:00 am and 10:00 pm, the Happy Mask Salesman laid out his wares, every single one of the masks that were strapped to his backpack. Link, who had some time to kill waiting for night to dusk, stepped in through the large wooden doors at a quarter to 4.

The Happy Mask Salesman lit up when he saw Link enter, eagerly bouncing with happiness at the prospect of a sale.

“Mister Link!” The man said. Link didn’t recall giving his name, even when they first met a few cycles ago. Link decided that he’d rather assume he didn’t remember than think about how the salesman could possibly know.

“Anything stand out to you?” The salesman asked. “As you can see, my collection is vast. My customers often find it hard to choose, but I tell them these kinds of masks have a habit of having a voice of their own. Sometimes the right one just…calls out to you.”

ABCDMXTX - Day 10: Jiang Yanli.

Yes, you're going into the lotus root and pork rib soup.

List of prompts.

Hello, I'm Ban (they/them), and after four years or so, I find myself again on Tumblr.

I write and translate fanfiction, and I also do cosplay. I've lost count of how many times I've tried to pick up the habit of drawing just to drop it after a while, but anyway, I'm at it once more. As you can see, this time I'm mostly motivated by the author MXTX, whose good old ghost king Hua Cheng lives rent free in my head, but I hope to slowly delve into my other fandoms through this medium as well.

Glad to be back to the hellsite!
