Inappropriate use of curse technique
Please feed him (◞‸◟ )
Exactly.
To whom it may concern,
Nie Mingjue’s blind spot
That part where Nie Mingjue asks Jin Guangyao something on the lines of ‘are you different than them/ what makes you different’ and then claiming that he himself would never use his privilege for his own benefit is so funny…
Like babe, you are great and have your own trauma to deal with, but you know… you managed to openly attack and injure your sworn brother with zero consequences because you are the privileged legitimate sect-leader, and he is the whoreson grudgingly recognised.
Talk about privilege blindness of the elite… really!!!

I so very desperately want a crack MDZS mistaken identity AU where somehow the entire Jianghu becomes convinced that not only are Wei Wuxian and the Yiling Patriarch separate people, but that Wei Wuxian has become the Yiling Patriarch's wife/concubine/sex slave (whichever is funnier).
Bonus points if the misunderstanding becomes so widespread because Jiang Cheng throws a hissy fit over the misconception. Lan Zhan should also have exactly one (1) drink and promptly try to go on a drunken one night wife-stealing quest.
MASSIVE KUDOS if someone manages to write in everyone jumping to the conclusion that Wen Yuan is Wei Wuxian's biological child with the Patriarch, and just immediately assuming in relation to that, that evil resentment powers somehow gave Wei Wuxian a working womb. Somehow. Cue Lan Zhan chugging vinegar in a corner.
Everyone is screaming inside. Wei Wuxian says at some crucial point to everyone the truth that he is the Patriarch. No one believes him.
I would write this AU myself, but while my heart says yes, my mediocre writing skills say no.
The Guanyin temple confession is maybe my favorite scene of any piece of media I've ever consumed because it's so unpredictable.
You got the villain just halting his evil plot, full stop, in the middle of his gloating speech, no less, because "What do you MEAN you guys aren't even together?! What?! No, no, no, there won't be any romantic misunderstanding in my hostage situation! Honey, tell him!"
And then the calmest, most polite character alive procceeds to go his version of apeshit on this punk like "my brother like-likes you, you fucking pinecone! You useless twink! We all thought you were a hoe but you are just an imbecile!" (Which is a nice parallel to the Jiang brothers' hatred for the peacock, but I digress)
And THEN, when it's the perfect moment for a climatic love confession, homeboy goes and screams for everyone to hear that he... really wanted that dick, Hanguang-jun! Where's love? Who cares? WWX wants to ride you like a carnival ride: sticky and filthy and multiple times.
It's a wonder that Xichen didn't yank that string from Jing GuangYao to strangle WWX himself.
This has been my favorite addition, I cackled like a seal irl lol
today i learnt that chinese national figure skaters wang shiyu and liu xinyu onced skated to wuji and they even dressed like wangxian!! it’s so stunning it should be illegal. you can watch them here
I am genuinely obsessed with how jiang cheng goes from “youngest sect leader in an age with a weak, newly rebuilt sect who can’t risk upsetting the jin sect” to “if you’re going to offend someone, make sure you don’t offend the jiang sect or sandu shengshou”
theres something so ironic about jiang cheng saying "you promised that as long as the gusulan sect had its two jades, yunmengjiang sect would have its two prides" and "that i'd be sect leader and you'd be my subordinate" in the same sentence.
could you imagine lan xichen ever referencing to lan wangji as his 'subordinate' or demand that he "help [lcx] [his] whole life".
actually, we know exactly what lxc would do in a situation where lwj might have 'betrayed' their sect, he would do everything in his power to protect him. lwj, on paper, does all the things jiang cheng accuses of wwx; protecting an outsider, hurting their elders ect. but lxc doesnt hold this over lwj, instead he tries his best to understand the emotional turmoil lwj is under and make sure that lwj is given the least harsh punishment he could possibly get.
jiang cheng could never get his 'two prides' bc that would have required him to view wwx as his equal. when really, all he wanted was a subordinate who would help him run a sect for his whole life without complaining or ever leaving him.
Mdzs as a d&d game.
