I Like Your Phermones Audio Drama Season 2
The subbing of ILYP S2 is underway (finally)! For newcomers, as the title suggests, it is a danmei, omegaverse (abo), schoolyard romance story. Slice-of-life, fluffy, sweet.

Mandarin Name Pronunciations
Would anyone be interested in a casual live session for practicing/learning the pronunciations of MXTX and other novel character names and terminology (in standard Mandarin Chinese)? I was considering recording a video or small clips but I probably don't have that much time rip.
Anyone want to hang out this Friday March 17, maybe around 12-2pm EST? Or feel free to let me know what times might work.
Discord invite below for Friday. I’m saying 12pm EST for now, but it’s really whenever between 12-3, probably.

qqgk prompt list
(procrastinating again so I guess it’s time for more JiuHuo thoughts…)
(for the two and a half people in this Eng fandom, feel free to let me know if any of these sound interesting and maybe I’ll be inspired to actually write some fic ^^ …or tell me your suggestions!)
Post-Canon
temporary amnesia: QJ’s memories reverts to double examiner timeline for a day or two and YH (at Chu Yue’s insistence) pranks him because he’s mad about it - mostly fluff (already started writing this but am currently stuck)
cosplay convention: probably quite ooc - Yu Wen begs YH to help out his girlfriend’s cosplay club and YH (and QJ) gets dragged into convention activities - dressing up and acting out various scenarios link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/39970308
headache: YH gets a migraine for the first time since leaving the System and Chu Yue teaches QJ how to take care of him - QJ discovers YH used to get them all the time - QJ reflects on the time lost between them
attempted robbery: YH has a terrible day and thwarts some criminals along the way
presumed dead: QJ receives the news that YH has been killed in action - plot
undercover i: JiuHuo put on a show to draw out a mole - melodramatic
injury: JiuHuo getting mad at each other for taking risks - QJ’s mission takes a turn for the worse and YH leads a rescue team to go extract them - protective boyfriends
surprise: QJ happily returns home for the day only to find bloodstains and no YH - what happened?
Double Examiner Era
fever: YH is ill and, for some reason, QJ has the urge to take care of this so-called adversary of his - bittersweet ao3: link
drunk: QJ gets tipsy (or does he??) and his companions look on in horror as he starts teasing/flirting with Examiner A
unexpected interlude: a bug causes examiner!YH and examiner!QJ to take a trip to “the future” where they witness post-canon!JiuHuo’s relationship - crack, probably - time travel-ish
AUs
schoolyard romance: QJ crushes hard on the new transfer student
undercover ii/pretend relationship: JiuHuo, exes who parted years ago, reunite when a mission requires them to play boyfriends/husbands
undercover iii: police officer!QJ falls in love with local florist/cafe owner/musician/hooker!YH who turns out to be a special forces agent in disguise
black cat: supernatural - human!QJ and leopard!YH - post-canon and/or completely AU
(Justice in the Dark / Guang Yuan / Mo Du Live Action first impression…)
I was planning to wait for more episodes to air before binging but alas my self-control is non-existent so I’ve watched all 8 eps that are out. Disclaimer, I only listened to the audio drama and haven’t read the novel yet which I hope to correct sometime in the future. And obviously these are my own personal opinions.
Pros
Good acting! Good chemistry between main cast!
I like the aesthetics! (and I know nothing about cinematography etc. but I have nothing bad to say about this aspect)
Is following the original plot MUCH closer than I expected!
Lang Qiao (now Lan Qiao)! I love her.
Tao Ran (now Tao Ze)! Cute!
Cons…?
So that whole thing about genetic predisposition for crime…when that intro popped up, I was like “oh NO” buuut so far, I think I see what they’re trying to do with that and hope they can pull it off well.
The name changes. I guess it was for c*nsorship reasons that I don’t fully understand. I’m conflicted about this but it’s not preventing me from enjoying the show.
Weird inconsistent audio quality, i.e., you can hear when they dubbed over some parts and there is an obvious change between one line and the next. Not uncommon in cdramas but ugh. Though I do appreciate the main actors using their own voices.
So far, I like the dynamic between the main pair. However, I am not feeling any romantic chemistry and don’t feel any urge to ship them. Will have to wait and see if this changes as their relationship also develops.
Yeah, so I saw mostly negative reactions from both the EN and CN fandoms which is not surprising. After watching, I hope minds are changed? People were joking/complaining about it turning into a “sci-fi” but this is not the case?? There are no sci-fi elements…unless I’m missing something… It’s just that they’ve done that AU thing a la Guardian but it’s much more innocuous than Guardian’s fantasy to sci-fi lol.
And the name change thing… On one side, you might consider this disrespectful to the author and original material. On the other hand, if novel fans prefer more separation between the novel and drama, this may be a good thing? Like if someone says Pei Su and Luo Weizhao, you know they’re talking about the drama and not the novel. Tbh I see the benefit of that, especially if there are some more major changes in plot later on…
Anyway, I hope the drama can keep up a good quality so I can enjoy it as a crime mystery show, at the very least. It probably helps that I have low expectations for the romance aspects so I will just wait and see how far they will go with that.

Beware: Dad Jokes Ahead
伏魔洞, the name of the Yiling Laozu's den in the Burial Mounds: 伏 means "[to make] prostrate", as well as "subdue", while 魔 is "demon", and 洞 is "cave". To a typical wuxia audience, it would be read as "Demon-conquering cave." But as WWX explains:
只因为我经常在这儿睡觉。有魔头趴在地上睡觉的洞，可不就是伏魔洞？ "It's just because I'm often sleeping in here. A cave where a demon's lying asleep on the floor - is that not a Cave-Where-Demons-Prostrate?"
After sitting on it for nearly a year, it finally occurred to me how to translate this.
Wei Wuxian replied, "Simple. It's just because I sleep in here a lot. It's not the DEMON SLAYING CAVE, it's the DEMON'S LAYING CAVE. Get it?"
I just want to ask, if you will continue to translate audio drama ILYP? Because the audio got taken down and you haven't update for about 3 months now, so i was wondering if you will continue or not?
Hi there. Yes, I do intend to continue translating but it might take a while. Unfortunately, I caught covid a while back (highly not recommended 💀), so that delayed it, and now real life is quite busy.
Thanks for the patience!
Hello! Hope you're well, was just wondering if you could help me know how GIN is pronounced in qqgk? And when yh is saying GI, what does that sound like? I suck with pronunciation but cant get into a story if idk it exactly, thank you!
Hi! I believe Gin is pronounced just like it is in English. In fact, Qin Jiu's name is pronounced similarly to the Chinese phrase for "gin alcohol" so that's why.
"Gi" is pronounced "gee" (as far as I remember from the audio drama).
Hope that helps!
