Very Dangerous Guy: Stop Asking Me Questions Or I'll Kill You

Yet Another MXTX Trio:

He's hungry, starving, dying

I like that in The Ghost King's Bedtime Story extra Hua Cheng says, "the night we consummated our marriage" instead of "our wedding night." And even in the story Xie Lian is reading the consummation does not immediately follow the marriage. I like the thought that even once they were married they took a while to get there. And given the fact that there seem to be several truths woven through the creative liberties of the myth, I like that in the story it's the Scrap Immortal who initiates the consummation (albeit for duplicitous reasons, which I don't at all think actually happened). It's just very sweet that the implication is that they took their time, and when Xie Lian was ready he asked (probably just as adorkably as he did in the story) and Hua Cheng, naturally, said, "Of course."

Unfortunately, I am once again asking for assistance.

Due to several factors I don't really want to talk about, I've suffered a series of mental health episodes over the past few weeks that have left me, quite frankly, in the worst state since... basically before I started working on trauma recovery. I've come pretty close to being hospitalized a few times, but aside from the additional trauma that might incur, I also just simply couldn't afford it.

My ability to work an outside job was already limited by my C/PTSD among other things, but for right now, I can't even think about picking up a shift without having a panic attack. I can still force myself to do things if necessary, but... honestly I really need to be able to not do that, at least for a little while until I can get back on track.

Unfortunately, I can't afford to take a break with no income. A few surprise expenses came up recently which very nearly brought everything crashing down. It's only thanks to the support of my followers and fans that we were able to scrape by, but right now there's no buffer whatsoever. My partner's already working as much as he can, and almost his entire paycheck is going to rent payments and other bills. I can't ask him to work even more to cover my expenses as well.

Last month, I had to skip getting a prescription filled. I can't do that again. My cats are more than six months past due for their shots just because we can't afford it, and I'm stressed every day that I might lose them because of this. They are my literal lifeline.

To cover my own expenses, I need a bare minimum of $600 USD a month, broken down as follows:

Medication: $100

Medical Debt Bills: $300 (total $6000)

Credit Card Bills: $100 (total $3500)

Utility Bills: $100

This is just literally what I can't afford to stop paying no matter what, it doesn't cover groceries or gas, and I also need an additional one-time $500 to take my cats to the vet.

Any percentage of this that I can make through ko-fi tips, donations, requests, and patreon pledges is more time I don't have to spend forcing myself through panic attacks and hallucinations to work an outside job.

I'm hoping to get to a more stable place both mentally and financially eventually, but for now... I'm stuck. I'm stuck and it scares me. I want to heal, but right now it's like all the work I've already done and the progress I've made is evaporating. I'm struggling to keep up with even the most basic daily tasks, let alone my creativity and emotional well-being.

If you can help support me, I'm really, really grateful. The best way to do so would be through joining my Patreon, but really anything helps. I have some requests open on my ko-fi if you'd like to get something out of it, and here is a link to donate directly to my Paypal if you'd prefer that. I'm not really in a stable-enough place to make a full commitment right now, but if you leave a note with your donation that includes your url and a character name (or just a character on ko-fi), then I'll do a little doodle for you as thanks once I... am not struggling so much with the urge to delete myself from existing.

Thank you.

shen qingqiu's eye color

ok so...i've noticed in the official art sqq is depicted with green eyes. however, in the book, it is clearly started he has dark black eyes. it sorta ticks me off that on the front cover they got his eye color wrong...but was it just a thing with translation? I can't find the quote rn but in the first few chapters, when shen yuan intially transmigrates and describes sqq's body, he is said to have dark b;ack eyes. never states he has green eyes. and in the art, the green is quite light. idk if someone has pointed this out before.

What book would you defend like this:
