See, curmudgeonly rule follower and maverick 'goes his own way' charmer brings to mind nothing other than Mace Windu as LWJ and Qui-gon Jinn as WWX
…..oh god you’re not wrong
Enjoy Wei Wuxian I hope you enjoy his silliness.
Y’know, WWX is all fine and well, but his position is a pain in the ass to fill. At least not without a fundamental misunderstanding of certain SW characters… Frankly, if I was his sister, I would have smothered him (and all the rest of her relatives and acquaintances) in his sleep before any of the long term pining could become an issue. Having not done so when surrounded by emotionally constipated men, more than anything, qualifies JYL for whatever fantasy China calls sainthood. Also now I want soup.
Now, 3zun on the other hand - there’s some angst on a platter for you.
Have been sucked into the very watchable nonsense called The Untamed and now am contemplating the most tragic way to slot SW characters into magic-and-politics fantasy China
he’s just like me fr
we are the same

God the bots are out in force today. Like bloody whack-a-mole it is.
There is truly no greater love than taking your most adored fictional character and throwing them into the emotionally-devastating angst fueled trash compactor and pressing every single button on the machine just to see what will happen
Genre of character: submissive like a guard dog is submissive
i love when fic writers who have clearly never tried any kind of alcohol in their lives try to write someone drinking bc they're always like
"he ordered a tall glass of hard liquor. after three large glasses he was feeling tipsy" like babygirl i can't be sure but i think u just sent this man to the hospital
