toxic people are funny, actually

listen i love huaisang but the way some people talk about how he's like a heroic character.... you are thinking of someone else SURELY

"his plan was actually so smart and brave" smart yes of course. but you will notice that part of what's so smart about his plan is that it always puts OTHERS in danger instead of himself and if he is not keeping far from the action he is actively being shielded lmfao. he's not a heroic guy and that's exactly what's so fun about him. love him for who he truly is!!! the man who killed a bunch of cats for the express purpose of throwing kids into mortal peril so wei wuxian would do the grunt work of his revenge plot!!!!!!

he went to the jin guangyao school of machination and improved on the method by caring LESS about "collateral damage" and "morality" and i INSIST you respect that

we desperately need sex 2

One of my all-time favorite Jin Ling moments was when he realized that his crazy homo uncle (who may or may not be the Yiling Patriarch) was trying to get with Lan Wangji—one of the only adults Jin Ling actively fears and respects. And after enough Wei Wuxian-specific shenanigans, Jin Ling’s reaction to all this, which had initially been, "cutsleeve? more like cut that shit out," eventually morphed into, "okay this is HANGUANG-JUN, buddy, you cannot fuck around and find out with this one. You gotta LOCK THAT SHIT DOWN if you're going to sleep with a man that famous. Look at me, put a ring on it immediately, he's too good for your slut ass do you hear me—”
