I agree with this headcanon completely ππ
Hi, I just joined the fandom, but I found this extract from the LN (i don't know from which book came from, sorry), and I image how Maomao could react when Jinshi gave her the velvet antler.
If she look so happy with the bezoars,
How she react with the velvet antler?
This is my vision.
Jinshi gave her after a big trouble and Maomao is angry with him.
But...
When she see the antler...
And Gaoshun, say somehow likes that: "You look very happy Xiaomao!"
"Of course I am!
I'm an apothecary, and those are my velvet antlers!"
And Maomao kisses Jinshi.

If there is one crossover pairing I will unyieldingly ship until the day I die, it is Harley Quinn and Deadpool. I don't care what no one says. I want to see these two interact so bad.
Their dates, their anniversaries---heck, even just their missions together would be peak CINEMA.
I could totally see Harley Quinn just exploding a building in a way that makes a perfect heart out of fire and Deadpool just going: *gasp* "For me?"
I wouldn't mind them being platonic soulmates either, but if these two were to date---just imagine the cinematography.
If that background is considered ugly, mine are completely blasphemous. WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S UGLY---
Ik the background is ugly don't look too hard LOL
A part of me legit wants to see an alien x human female couple in media where the alien learns about periods, and they're just frantically caring for their female human s/o and desperately trying not to mess anything up because they've literally never heard of menstruation, but feel completely horrible about the fact their s/o suffers through it.
Alien: You're telling me that for seven days each month, you're subjected to immense agony, bleeding, and intense emotional change?
Fem Human: Yeah, pretty much.
Alien: And there's utterly nothing I can do to remove these forthcoming events?
Fem Human: Not any that would have potentially undesirable consequences depending on the person.
Alien: Oh my love, I am so terribly sorry.
Being an ex-Aphmau consumer, Mystreet Season 1 is very funny in hindsight because of how irrational Garroth and Laurence's possessiveness over Aphmau was.
They were always concerned about how Aphmau was spending too much time at Aaron's house despite them never really making much of an effort or invite her either. Even if so, the L was already in their face and they should've just taken it.
On top of having abs for days, Aaron was also incredibly chill, actually genuinely spent time with her, treated Aphmau like an actual person, and also (temporarily for more reasons) wore a blindfold---so the guy can't even see how ugly you actually are.
When you have it all down, is it really any wonder she wanted be around him all that time when it was clear from the start that Aaron actually respected her autonomy as a human being to begin with?
The Apothecary Diaries is finally available on Netflix and I fully intend to watch it like crazy. I watched a bunch of episodes in the span of one night and I can't even remember how many because I was just mindlessly clicking for the next episode.
I love Maomao as a protagonist SO. FREAKING. MUCH. SHE IS EVERYTHING I'VE EVER WANTED IN A FEMALE PROTAGONIST AND MORE.
Jinshi is...Jinshi.
I FREAKING LOVE GYOKUYOU, HER BABY, AND LIHUA.
I LOVE THIS SHOW SO STINKING MUCH AND I'M SO HAPPY I COULD FINALLY WATCH IT AFTER ONLY SEEING CLIPS ON YOUTUBE
I can see the direction of this turning the mage into a very creative, intelligent, and/or whimsical person----or it makes them dumb as a rock, lol
"Well, it seems our mage now has uh...quite the mindframe now since the incident."
*pans over to the mage who's now attempting to eat a fluffy dandelion and choking on the fluttering seeds*
When a mage is badly injured, magic sometimes "fills in the gaps"βgrowing an arcane hand or leg. You suffered brain damage that would have killed most. Magic filled in your mind.
Yeah. I said it. Fight me. Sesshomaru from Inuyasha freaking sucks and I'm tired of people on the internet acting like he doesn't just because he's married, conventionally attractive, and has kids. I don't even have a problem with the fact people like him. I have a problem with the fact people like him so they try to act like he's not a crappy person. I don't care for any so-called nuance this guy could have. I don't care what 'redemption' he was given. I don't care for any of that. I know for a fact that if this guy was uglier than a toad, you'd all hate him. Ain't no way in heck I'm gonna back down just because y'all are okay with the pairing of this eight year old girl with an adult freaking man.
On top of being a self-centered and careless jerk, he's also a major hypocrite and his (now romantic) relationship with Rin is so off-putting to me. "He isn't abusive to her----" Congratulations, he does the utter bare minimum---is he supposed to win a consolation prize for not being the scum of the Earth? "Oh, but Inuyasha and Kagome have a large age ga---" Inuyasha was mentally & physically (meaning both qualities should be present SIMULTANEOUSLY) the same age as Kagome when they first met. Ironically enough, before the whole Kikyo situation, he was 150 (which alludes to the fact he was a teenager within the realm of his species). The only reason why Inuyasha is chronologically older than he is---is because Kikyo shot an arrow into him that kept him in a state of limbo and being unchanged. Even regarding the overly complicated realm of when and how long it takes for supernatural beings like Inuyasha to age, one thing is for sure----Sesshomaru met Rin when she was LITTLE. "Oh, but he went away for a long time and met her as an adult---" I don't care. Let's really put this into perspective and think of what that fully entails. You're a fully grown adult who knew this person from the time they were eight years old. You then move away for a long time, then return---all for personal reasons. You see the person you knew as a child and meet with them. Would it NOT be considered weird at LEAST if you were to be in that situation and then think, "Hmm, I wanna get with that." In what universe would that context NOT be gross? Who in their right mind would willingly marry someone they used to know as a child while they were an ADULT? At least Inuyasha was mentally and physically a TEENAGER when he first met Kagome. Sesshomaru has known Rin as an adult from the time her age was a SINGLE DIGIT. The fact I even have to explain any of this makes me wonder if I'm in a simulation waiting for Morpheus to wake me up. If it wouldn't be okay for Kagome to wait until Shippo was an adult to have kids with him, why is it okay for Sesshomaru to do that with Rin? It makes no sense. "That's how it was back then---" Still doesn't make it any less gross, bro :) Though, let's say somehow that I am wrong----and that there's nothing wrong with Sesshomaru's relationship with Rin---
NOPE, never mind, he's still a major freaking hypocrite. He gave Inuyasha so much crap for having Kagome with him, hated his own mother for being human, hated his father for being WITH a human----only for him to then turn around, marry a human girl, and then have KIDS WITH HER. So even if everything else that I said before this aspect of the topic is incorrect (which I really don't think it is or will be convinced it's not), you gotta admit that Sesshomaru's behavior + hypocrisy is very slimy. Heck, even if they had her first encounter him as an adult or if he was ALSO kid when they first met---I most likely would've been a lot more receptive to them being a couple. "Oh you must've not watched the show/you have poor reading comprehension---" What else is there to comprehend? A guy married a girl who he knew as an adult when he had first met her when she was EIGHT. He practically raised this girl before letting her go with Kaede. WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO ANALYZE?! "Sesshomaru didn't raise Rin---" Okay, so what the heck was he doing the whole time she was around, then? Because he was protecting her, taking care of her, making sure she had stuff----that sounds like raising a child to me. Pretty sure Rumiko (the creator) even describes him as Rin's hogosha (which means protector). Even if not, the so-called romantic feelings Sesshomaru could've had are never mentioned of when they started forming. But no matter when or how it started, it's still VERY weird because he knew her when she a----say it with me----A SINGLE DIGIT. He still knew her as an adult when she was kid, so even if those 'feelings' were to have only begun when she was (let's say) 18, it's still off. I understand that both Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were previously morally corrupt/murderous beings before undergoing the general direction their stories went in. So as the audience, we tend to forgive things from them we normally wouldn't---especially considering the overall nature of their plot. But if a character is going to be a murderous piece of crap, don't have them be a hypocritical murderous piece of crap and act like we're supposed to forget it afterward. As much as I love the addition of Yashahime (because duh, it's more content that involves characters I like), the romantic relationship between Rin and Sesshomaru felt so unnecessary to me (if not downright disgusting---which it is). Don't get me wrong, Kagome and Inuyasha's relationship is not in any way perfect either, but at least Kagome wasn't freaking EIGHT YEARS OLD.
He really should've just stayed her father figure/caretaker/platonic mentor or something like that. A cold-blooded fiend like Sesshomaru reforming upon learning to care through adopting a child would've made a MUCH better and cuter arc for him than whatever the [BLEEP] this is.
Insult me all you want, but it's the truth. Sesshomaru x Rin is freaking disgusting.
Thank you everyone who got me to 100 reblogs! Thank you so much, this is crazy!
One of the cutest aspects about the direction of Yashiro's character in the newer chapters is how much she's openly simping for Hanako. We even get a glimpse into how Yashiro actually views him.
In the beginning, Yashiro was dead-set on only getting with the hottest of hot guys---the whole prince charming type. In fact, this is why she was obsessed with Teru for quite a bit.
But as of chapter you-know-who, there's very clearly a distinction between how the series/other people portray and see Hanako versus how Yashiro views him.
Throughout all the bullcrap these two go through, Yashiro realizes she can't keep her feelings buried anymore (though, I don't see why you would when you literally fight your way through this world's version of hell just to get to this dude, but I digress) and goes all in with acknowledging she wants nothing more than to be with Hanako.
Heck, even when her former crush, Nakahara was (creepily) hitting on her (actually, he was harassing her), she wanted nothing to do with him because Nakahara wasn't Hanako. It literally takes her a few seconds for her to even remember who he is because that's how insignificant he is in comparison to the one and only toilet ghost.
As she runs away from him due to his downright creeptitude (which ironically enough, smartly shows that he wouldn't have even made a good partner anyway so it was actually a good thing he rejected her), she reflects on how she DID want to confess to someone, but it wasn't to him---it was---say it with me: HANAKO--
And the best part from her reflecting on how she wanted to confess to him, it goes back to that part where he was with her in the stage where they'd be holding the performance for the Wizard of Oz. See how the series objectively portrays him versus how Yashiro sees him?
Yashiro is no longer concerned with any prince charming because in her eyes, Hanako IS exactly THAT. From what she originally saw as this snarky boy in a hat, she now sees him as the most handsome because of who he is and what they've both been through together.
He looks more attractive to her because of the fact she recognizes the bond she has with him and wants nothing more than to delve deeper into it.
As messy as these two are, I will say this: AidaIro are MASTERS at subtext and tugging my heart strings.
I do find it cute how Hanako and Yashiro are usually holding hands in the official art. And Hanako lovingly taking care of fish Yashiro in the last one is sending me---
decided compile all of the official art i cleaned in one post in case anyone looking for them needs some Β―\_(γ)_/Β― i never realized how many i worked on, wow
i keep forgetting to mention this but i don't really mind if anyone uses my cleans without credit, but it's deeply appreciated tho ^^
I'm so tired of the 'bad boy' or emotionally stunted male love interests for stories.
I want a story with a decent guy who just so happens to like leather and rides a motorcycle while being extroverted and funny.
"That sounds a bit unrealistic---"
So is having a healthy relationship with someone who glitches just from trying to say, "I feel ____" so I guess we're both at a standstill here.
I love a dark and brooding love interest as much as the next person, but it's honestly getting pretty old. Vintage even.
Sorry not sorry for wanting more media with fictional couples that have healthy communication and basic respect.
Hi. I like stuff :)I am unable to donate---sorry I'm a brokie
