And all together now! I opened my ask box for names again. In March, I'll look in there and choose someone else! Planning to draw Azure, Boethiah, Mephala, Naryu Virian, Martin Septim and Cosades or Curio

Anonymous asked:

Does Jiang Cheng actually swear (or say anything that could be construed as swearing)? Because he is the most swear-y character in any fic that does not contain Xue Yang and I'm wondering how accurate that portrayal is.

autumnslantern answered:

I'm pretty sure the answer to this is no and it's a fanon characterization of his speech patterns. I understand the impulse though because he truly deserves to get to cuss up a storm! But he is more polite than generally given credit for.

so some time ago I actually became curious and did a little research, and discovered that out of 33 times the word "fuck" was said in the ExR translation of MDZS, 8 of them were said by Jiang Cheng, making him the second most often swearing character after Wei Wuxian (with 11 "fucks"). third place belongs to Wen Chao with only 3 "fucks", so Yunmeng Shuangjie are really ahead of everyone else huh

now, I can't say if all this swearing is present in the original or it's the translation's fault, but "Jiang Cheng swears a lot" is not entirely based on nothing

(it's also worth mentioning that most of Jiang Cheng's swearing happens by the end of the novel, during golden core reveal/Guanyin temple events, when he's really Going Through It, so... who wouldn't start swearing? anyway, here's my favorite one)

#sorry to hijack your post op I just think it's really funny#wwx and jc ~the swearing brothers~#(i do agree that jc is actually way more polite than the fandom gives him credit for)#also I think that wwx won in this competition only because 2 of his swears were in his internal thoughts#but with jc I can only count the swears he actually said out loud#I bet if we could hear his thoughts his count would've been waaay higher#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#mdzs

I was wholly unprepared for the experience of watching the untamed in 2023. I’ve seen the gifs! I’ve read some character analysis! I vaguely knew the plot but I did not expect a.) the show to be a lot more tragic and nuanced and funny than what I thought possible and I cannot stress this enough b.) for Wen Ning to also be there on that damn boat

Shoutout to Baldurs Gate 3 for having a magical girl transformation sequence but instead of a teenager in a short skirt it's a lesbian aasimar paladin in full plate about to open 13 cans of fucking whoop ass
