Parallels Between Sinner's Pit And The Heavenly Parade

Parallels between Sinner's Pit and the Heavenly Parade

Re-reading TGCF is interesting. Someone has probably said this, but here I go anyway.

During the Banyue arc, I had a bit of an epiphany. Hua Cheng catches Xie Lian, keeps holding him while fighting Kemo, and tells him not to be worried.

In the flashback at the end of the second volume, Xie Lian catches a then unknown child, keeps holding him during the staged fight with Mu Qing, and tells him not to be worried.

Even the first time I thought ‘It’s dirty’ is an odd excuse for not setting Xie Lian down. I mean, they’ve travelled through the desert by funnel cloud, they’ve had a building collapse right near them, and had an intermezzo with the mud face. I’m sure Xie Lian’s clothes weren’t exactly pristine any more. But that isn’t what it was about: He refused to pass up the opportunity to recreate their first encounter with reversed roles. It was just too good to let go.

This is really, really well done.

I'm not a fan of fall. Or winter. Or anything that isn't scorching hot summer. Seriously, give me a city at 40°C any day, that's more than fine. The one bright light is figure skating. It makes the whole freezing drab wetness bearable.

We Had An Uninvited Visitor ...

We Had An Uninvited Visitor ...

... found bone daddy ...

We Had An Uninvited Visitor ...

... and had a very brief chat with an Owlbear. I didn't fight her. It didn't seem right.

We Had An Uninvited Visitor ...

We saw through the illusion at the swamp, but didn't yet go there.

We Had An Uninvited Visitor ...

We freed a gnome (despite the fact that I almost got the wrong lever ...) ...

We Had An Uninvited Visitor ...

... and walked in on a situation. Sadly, they were so unamused I had no choice but to attack.

We Had An Uninvited Visitor ...

And at the end, we woke up to a set of very sharp teeth. Because he told us he'll be able to fight better, we let him drink. A little.

Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead

New Chapter:

How should a mortal deal with a furious ghost? Shi Qingxuan may not know the answer to that, but he'll try anyway. Even if he has to accept help he doesn't feel he deserves - or wants.

(I'm posting this about 32 hours earlier than I normally would, but I'll be busy later and probably won't remember, and I'm out tomorrow, so there we are. Between now or mid-Saturday, I'm choosing now.)

For starters, talk to him like a normal person. Someone should have tried that some time. (Yes, I know a total amount of two (2) people did that - and those don't include Minshan because hero-worship is not normal.)

He's in your room what do you do.

Sorry I didn't know what to do with this photo.

How bad is it that I know exactly which episode and scene the TOS pic is?

to demonstrate the issues with spock’s characterization in certain star trek adaptations i’ve made this convenient chart

To Demonstrate The Issues With Spock’s Characterization In Certain Star Trek Adaptations I’ve Made

as you can see here, recent spock iterations simply are not serving enough cunt

we can clearly see that snw spock is at a critically low level of cuntiness, whereas aos spock does have noticeable cunt. however, it is negligible seeing as tos spock was already off the charts in cuntiness.

I'm currently watching the MDZS donghua with my Mom - and yes, I'll make a list of her opinions again when we're done, but my schedule right now is crazy, so I don't get to sit down in peace as much as I'd like.

This isn't about that. This is about me warning her that I'll sit her through The Untamed, eventually. (Assuming I'll survive this. Every time Jin Guangyao shows up on the screen a beam at him, actually whooped in his first scene because it's so, so late in the donghua and WHAT AN ENTRANCE THEY GAVE MY LITTLE GUY, and I've said I adore that man. She's going flay me alive because she's not going to feel the same way.) She's all for it, but I warned her that the special effects are ... ahem. Not it.

Her response: Is it phallactite-level bad?

Me, trying to process this question for a minute and failing: WHAT-level bad?!

Her giving me a huge grin: You know, pallactite. Like the one from Kirk.

It took another hot minute for me to get what she meant, but then I told her that I knew she was okay with the horrible effects and props from Star Trek, but it's one thing in a no-budget 60s show and another in a modern one so I wanted to warn her. I also said the props and costumes and what not are good and SOME of the effects are, too, but she shouldn't think too much about how physics work most of the time.

(Look up the scene in 'What Are Little Girls Made Of' with a stalactite. Or just look for Kirk and stalactite. The scene is about a minute. If you find a still of Kirk holding a huge, unfortunately shaped prop - yes, that is, in fact, a real still.)

Now keep your fingers crossed that I live long enough to do this.

Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead

New Chapter:

The investigation has been crudely planned, but it leads ... well, somewhere. How to get back from wherever that is is a different question entirely.
