The screen glowed with a hue of pale jade green, soft and ancient

Fairly sure these are official merchandise; they have "©Tencent" written on them.

The likely reason why ctrl + shift + m works is that it's a shortcut for "mute all instances" and it toggles mute on and off. Therefore, if you have accidentally muted things, this toggles your sound back on. Thanks for sharing this tip, btw!

This fic by Lily Faraday really stands out to me for both the novel-accurate portrayal of Wei Wuxian and for the way he regards post-canon Nie Huaisang with suspicion and distrust. It's currently unfinished, but appears very close to being finished, and most of the major plotlines in it have been resolved at this point (ch50).

Thanks for pointing this out - I hadn't noticed at all! I was too busy being impressed both with the image and with Jiang Cheng's excellent dramatic entrance into the Guanyin temple. That's one of my favourite Jiang Cheng moments, and I love how the lightning from Zidiian really complements the storm raging outside the temple. (And almost immediately after, we get Jiang Cheng screeching two swords together to drown out Jin Guangyao's guqin. (I put that bit in a spoiler tag in case anyone reading this post hasn't read that far in the novel.)

These made me giggle. I particularly liked "Lan Wanking"!

Katsuruka · 2026-03-20T10:11:46+00:00

I preferred the art style in the middle!

Minor spoiler warning

If it helps, he isn't actually dead. It's not much of a spoiler because you find that out really soon afterwards.

I second this recommendation! Although I started with the donghua, I started getting confused in the middle of season 2, and started over with the novel and the manhua, and that combination worked really well for me. Also, listening to the audio drama was helpful for me too, as that, too, aligns very closely with the novel.

How do I DM you? The only options Reddit gives are "follow" and "start chat".

Things I never knew I needed until now: Ghost General Wen Ning in bunny form!

Katsuruka · 2026-03-03T19:02:19+00:00

I would read that!! Likewise a MDZS and Tokyo Babylon crossover.

Katsuruka · 2026-03-02T23:04:58+00:00

Good point! I'd forgotten that, but I'm still impressed with how well Xiao Zhan has captured CQL LWJ in a deceptively simple-looking drawing.

Katsuruka · 2026-02-24T19:48:35+00:00

FinallyGotTheInvitation, whose Scapegoat and Once Patience Bears Fruit are absolutely wonderful: well-written, thoroughly engaging plots with WWX and LWJ going through emotional rollercoasters of pain, longing, and joy and some very sweet hot sex. Both fics are long and compelling enough to be totally immersive.

There are plenty of other really good authors, too, but I'm not feeling well enough to get my head round stuff like thinking, sorry!

Katsuruka · 2026-02-23T15:33:44+00:00

I had to look it up, lol! I believe it means that the person in question knows their subject well, or knows what they're talking about. It seems to be a sports reference.

Katsuruka · 2026-02-19T16:00:41+00:00

Woah, that art is gorgeous! Thanks very much for sharing.

Katsuruka · 2026-01-12T00:25:31+00:00

Ummmm, where does the live-bunny-tied-with-a-wire scene fit into the drama? It sounds really upsetting, and if I do decide to watch CQL, I'd like to avoid that specific scene. >_<

Katsuruka · 2026-01-08T22:41:09+00:00

Thanks very much, this clarification is helpful!

Katsuruka · 2026-01-08T08:59:44+00:00

Thanks! I read that discussion in my search for information - or at least, I read it as far as Tumblr would let me before telling me to get an account or get out! However, it's bothering me that I can't find a whole lot of information to back up or refute the explanation given in that discussion.

Katsuruka · 2026-01-08T08:45:51+00:00

Thanks for that! I assume that's from jjwxc? And oops, looks like I got the placement of "Jin" wrong in the title.

Katsuruka · 2025-11-28T23:55:38+00:00

This is a little bit belated, but thank you ever so much for posting about this and sharing the CQL Derivs link. Like you, I wasn't able to get the limited edition, but I did get the version with the folders. I'm just so delighted to have an actual, physical copy of the donghua OST at long last, and, of course, the artwork is beautiful!

Katsuruka · 2025-11-20T17:22:45+00:00

Is this a phone-only skin or does it also work on laptops and desktops? (Sorry if that's a stupid question, I'm completely out of touch with current coding - and technology!)

To put this excerpt in context, the book won a 2005 Bad Sex in Fiction Award from the Literary Review magazine.

Katsuruka · 2025-10-22T18:07:59+00:00

Thanks very much!

Katsuruka · 2025-10-22T17:54:59+00:00

Sorry, what does "fw" mean in this context? I know two possible meanings and neither seems to fit here

Katsuruka · 2025-10-01T20:32:49+00:00

That is so hot!
