The last time we were on a long flight, my wife and I invented a game we call "Little Guy."

You start a game of Little Guy by saying, "I'm gonna hand you a little guy." The little guy is some kind of baby animal you are imagining. "Oh," she might say in response, "Okay," and hold out her hands for it. I will then mime handing her the animal. This provides some clues as to the little guy's size, weight, and general ungainliness.

She then gets to ask questions about what kind of little guy this is, BUT NO QUESTIONS ABOUT HIS ACTUAL APPEARANCE OR SPECIES ARE ALLOWED. Qualitative questions, or questions about his behavior, are the only ones permitted. She can ask "Is he soft?" or "Does he seem nervous about being held?" or "If I put him in the bathtub, does he seem okay with that?" or "Would he like a lil grape?" or "Is he the sort of little fellow who would wear a vest in a children's book?" but not "Does he have fur," "Is he a reptile," "Is he from Asia," etc. Some questions are in a grey area so you have to follow your heart, but the point is not to identify the animal as fast as possible: the point is to guess the animal purely based on vibes + how he would act if he were in your living room right now.

And I'm not limited to yes or no answers! If she asks, "Would it feel appropriate to see this little guy in a propeller hat?" I can reply, "Oh no, he has a gravity to him. A bowler hat would be a more appropriate hat." Or if she asks, "Does this little guy have protagonist energy?" I can say something like, "he probably wouldn't be the main character in a children's cartoon. He'd probably be the main character's ditzy best friend who's always eating sandwiches, or something."

We're big Twenty Questions to kill time in a waiting room people, but Little Guy is more about the journey than the destination. It's got a different kind of sauce that's nice if "killing time" and "lowering anxiety" need to happen hand in hand.

The maths fandom is wild. “Real” and “imaginary” numbers? I think you mean canon and non-canon. You guys seriously go “this is my number oc his name is i and he is the square root of -1” when in numbers canon lore it’s actually impossible to square root a negative but sure whatever. “Complex numbers”? I think you mean a character x oc ship. “f(x) = 3x - 5”? That is self-insert fanfiction.

A unique agony as a shijie lover is loving her precisely for the reasons people think she's lame and keep trying to "fix". I love that she's a bad cultivator with a weak golden core and that she's in poor health. I love that she's conflict averse and so not always a great mediator because she prefers to keep the peace and shut down conflict. Madam Yu yells at her every day to stop embarrassing herself by lowering herself to a servant's level, and every day Yanli is like "Yes mom" and then turns around and keeps doing what she likes anyways. She is not naturally suited to sect leadering and while she's extremely dutiful and would give it her all I think she'd enjoy it as much as her father does(which is to say, not at all). I love that she's totally unhinged about her brothers and that she was so scarred from the last time her family died when she wasn't there to see it that she recklessly throws herself onto a battlefield just so that she can at least be present this time. It's not even the first time, she's determined to help out with the war effort despite having zero fighting abilities and literally no one expecting her to do that. I love that she's uncomfortable with anger and struggles to stand up for herself. Xuanli are cute and I love that she seemingly banged her man before the wedding. Most of all I love that she died hating Wei Wuxian while still loving him enough to put herself between him and a sword. My beloved!!

renkayli asked:

Omg. Your tags about Shen Wei's tanlines. I'm laughing so hard.

eirenical answered:

Oh, you mean: this post? ;D  OK,

(OK, LET’S HAVE SOME FUN HERE, BECAUSE I JUST WROTE UP A WHOLE POST FOR SOMEONE ELSE AND TUMBLR ATE IT, SO I’M FEELING FRISKY.)

The tags in question: #ok so... i have three separate and distinct reactions to this gifset #1) OMG SHEN WEI #*squealy tea kettle noises* #TOO PRECIOUS FOR WORDS #LOOK AT THEM #JUST LOOK AT HIM #I WANT TO SQUISH HIM #2) FUCK but that quote fucks me up EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. #it just... hurts #i have a lot and i mean A LOT of feelings about how shen wei did such a good job of turning himself into a weapon to fight this war #that he was never able to see himself as anything else ever again #never able to see himself as a person with intrinsic worth beyond what he could DO for other people and how he could HELP other people #A LOT OF FEELS #and this scene triggers ALL OF THEM #*sobs softly* #and 3) ...if he really never takes off that mask he should have had one FUCK ALL of a weird tan line on his face #and ngl i feel CHEATED that we did not get to see that #XD #*dies laughing*

I mean... LOOK.  If I could get a TEVA TAN when I lived my summer in Teva sandals and my uncle walks around every summer with a farmer’s tan because he wears the same exact length shirtsleeves, shorts, and socks every day, you CANNOT tell me that Shen Wei would not have some SERIOUSLY FUNKY TAN LINES if he wore the same exact mask in the same exact placement on his face EVERY DAY while outside leading an army.  YOU CAN’T.

You can’t even tell me that his hood would protect him, because LOOK AT THIS NONSENSE:

IT CLEARLY DOESN’T.  And his hood didn’t overhang his face so much in Ye Olde Haixing, so it would have been even worse!

Now.  That being said, we’ve already established that Shen Wei has powers that:

SO MAYBE HE HAS ONE THAT WORKS AS SUNBLOCK, TOO.  Or maybe Dixingren don’t tan.  Or maybe he can change the way his skin absorbs sunlight, IDEK.  XD  But SOMETHING fishy is going on there and you can’t tell me there isn’t.  ;D

we need more representation in media for people who are just dogshit at improvising snappy one liners. too many characters these days can come up with the smartest funniest thing to say in any given situation with zero rehearsal or hesitation and it's just not realistic. we need more guys who say shit like "yeah, well, um, how about you, uh, suck my dick?"
