This is my ongoing art project to pair up screenshot redraws of characters from MDZS/The Untamed with quotes from Shakespeare. There is no end in sight, but also no schedule. If you enjoy these and want to suggest a quote for a particular character, hit me up! I’ll try to get through as many characters as I can (in no particular order).
I made another fanfic book cover. Haven't done so in a long time! This one is for @thefeelswhale All Old Things Are New Again, which is a fic I've read maybe 100 times by now and is one of my absolute favorites.

MXTX's danmei are getting increasingly popular, and the fandoms are getting more fic-happy. I've noticed that some writers seem interested in writing their own fics but are concerned of making mistakes with niche honorifics and titles. I've noticed some that have jumped right in, but have made innocent errors that I'd like to correct but fear coming off as rude or presumptuous. And so I've made this list of terms that covers the basics and also some that are a little more niche since they're usually directly translated in cnovels.
DISCLAIMER: This is by no means a comprehensive list of everything one needs to know or would want to know concerning ancient Chinese honorifics and titles, merely what I myself consider useful to keep in mind.

DRAWTOBER #19 - Adagio for Crickets and Train Whistle by ChaoticAndrogynous
Brilliant musician Xiao Xingchen is travelling with his old friend from university, Song Lan. They're headed to a rental property for a week of quiet before the next leg of Xiao Xingchen's tour begins. But something is bothering Xiao Xingchen.
a beautiful little modern AU that not only hits my songxiao requirements (exploring Song Lan's mysophobia and XXC's vision impairment!!!) it knocks the whole thing out the park! I've not seen an AU before that explores XXC's past as anything other than him being raised by Cool Hippy Mom Baoshan Sanren, so it's really intriguing to read a fic that allows him a bit more complexity, and Song Lan grappling with his desire for closeness with XXC vs his revulsion with touch is compelling and compassionately written. a sweet and emotionally bittersweet read with a lovely ending.
Everybody I just came upon the best animation ever. Go watch it now. I'm sobbing.

He's so sick over him
I downloaded some watercolor and ink pen brushes for CSP a while back but had a hard time figuring them out until recently. Hospital cuddles for Vash and Wolfwood with all those delicious brush textures. :3
