#apothecaryposting

the text could not be clearer in that some of the aspects maomao hates most in lakan are aspects she absolutely inherited from him and it could not be funnier. shes like "man this guy SUUUUCKS he doesnt care about anything that doesnt interest him, cant remember anyones name, and doesnt mention things that should be considered important" then you flip back like two pages and read that maomao doesnt remember the name of the quack doctor shes been friends with for years and also consciously decides not to commit to memory things she finds boring. the call is coming from inside the house

sooooooo funny that in maomaos chapters she might offhandedly think of jinshi like, once, IF its relevant, but in jinshis chapters its like sigh well i WONDER what MAOMAO would do in this situation. i at least know THIS thing, because MAOMAO TOLD ME ! #mymaomao i want to squish him with my fingers like. a ant 🐜

i think if i write an outline for my knh fic idea and can visually see how many important plot elements are missing ill be cured of my itch to write it (DELUSIONAL)

ppl on tiktok made it seem like the family trees and mystery subplots in apothecary diaries were really convoluted and i have to either assume that 1) the anime watered it down and the novels are more obtuse or 2) (likely) those people are just stupid

wow i did not clock at all that maomao and madoka share a voice actress. she HAS the range

im all caught up with apothecary diaries wat the hell :-(
