So, those posts about 'jagiya' translations into other languages? Yeah, i love them.

Sadly, German has virtually no cute terms of endearment, alas, I put a spin on it: I present to you, Austrian German curse words Jongwoo would use on Moonjo

(Because Austrians looovee swearing and using obscure curse words)

1. Deppata (idiot)

10/10

I feel like it works with the way Jongwoo usually speaks with Moonjo?? I would definitely scream 'deppada' the same way Jongwoo does 'saekkiya', and it can be easily used with other curse words

2. Oaschloch (asshole)

6/10

This is THE word you hear in Vienna lmao, but I think Jongwoo would be too much of a 'countryboy' to actually use that. Plus it doesn't work with the way he yells at Moonjo?? Like I'd use it in a derogatory looking-down-on-someone kind of way

3. Wichsa (literally a man who ejaculates xd)

7/10

Slightly better than 'Oaschloch', but still too calm I think?? Also Moonjo is too elegant for a person I'd typically think to be a 'wichsa'

4. Goschada (annoyingly talkative person)

8.5/10

Moonjo loves annoying Jongwoo with words (and actions, but his creepiness is often conveyed through encouragements and words), and 'Goschada' is PERFECT for that

5. Gfrast (brat)

6/10

Hmmmm not enough anger for me?? I feel like it's used more towards (annoying, malicious) children or younger people, so maybe Jongwoo would use it when Moonjo is really annoying him? Idk

best thing about writing from jongwoo's perspective is the unreliable-narrator aspect: is this really happening? is this moonjo, or an actual person? am i confusing the reader, or spelling out the truth, or does it just seem like i'm spelling out the truth when really it's a hallucination of jongwoo's?

"being queer isn't a choice"- uhm you're wrong, i decided to love women the SECOND huigyeom got on screen??? /j

Brainrot go brrrr

Have some dumb doodles of old man yaoi (but domestic), plus brat summer deadpool. Ignore the different lineart lol, I didn’t wanna redo those two, the morning cooking sketch was so bad I HAD to do a second sketch/lineart

“Those poor boys”

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”

I meant to go at 11pm, and then it ended up as 2am...

shit i meant to go to bed early

i want a gay-coded-villain-coded hero. everything about their aesthetics says that they are evil and gay, but technically speaking their behavior is never anything less than noble and helpful, albeit in a weirdly sinister way.

one thing that I can’t let go of re: the locked tomb series is the statement I think it makes about identity and permanence and love. Like, I guess we all finished gideon the ninth being in love with gideon’s pov and with harrow as the person she is in relation to gideon. Then we landed in harrow the ninth and we were robbed of both, and I’m sure we all felt like we lost something, and we thought the end goal would be to get to the point where we would go back to having the thing that we lost: gideon’s vibrant voice and harrow’s whole psyche. and then we landed in nona the ninth and… 

I don’t know for ya’ll, but that’s when something in me shifted. phyrra was in the body of her most beloved adept and got to live with her longing for him and for wake redefining her identity; we didn’t care for her in the previous books, but we got to care for her now, and she was worth it. camilla’s body was both hers and palamedes’ and the coronation of their arc wasn’t to go back to how they were when we first learned to love them; it was to let go of both their individualities to become a whole new person, and we readers - just as nona - got to experience the pang at understanding that we were to let go of our concept of camilla and palamedes as individuals, while having to accept that that was the truest form they both could possibly achieve, that they felt no loss whatsoever, that what we perceived as loss was in fact their triumph. gideon - our beloved gideon - came back and she wore another name and we got to love her again, but names matter in this universe, and we had to deal with the pang of knowing that we could love her all the same, but she was - in fact - not the same at all, and when she antagonised our new main characters we found out in surprise that we resented her for it, that our loyalties had partially shifted. and then…

and then there was nona. nona in the body of harrow, who got to be loved as a person separated from harrow because bodies are transient and the soul is what matters. nona who was born to disappear in mere months, something the people around her knew well and which didn’t prevent any of them from getting to know her as a fully fleshed individual and to learn to love her all the same. nona whom we readers too understood at one point that was a character built to fade away. we could have decided not to invest in her, then. we could have decided to be annoyed at not finding harrow in her, at not finding gideon in her. but we didn’t. well, I didn’t. I understood she was born to die, and I chose to love her all the same. because isn’t it how it is? isn’t this how love is? we are mortal things who fall for mortal things knowing full well they won’t last. but we choose to love all the same. the impermanence of things isn’t a flaw ruining what should have been perfect; it is the very essence of things. we got to love nona even though she wouldn’t last. we got to love nona because she wouldn’t last. that’s all fine, in the end, because we got to love someone, and you can’t take loved away.
