hiii i hope this isnt disrespectful or anything, but did your account use to be about something else a few years back?? i just logged in here after 1-2 yes of not using twt and i can’t seen to remember who u are, though u seem oddly familiar so im curious 😭😭💗
hi, not disrespectful so no worries, my account changes a lot because i have many interests/fandoms and i tweet about them/change layouts whenever i like. if you were here 1-2 years back, my user was @ faeriarchive then and i have been active in the tgcf, genshin, honkai impact 3rd & honkai star rail fandoms
Hi! I have a question regarding this calculation https://x.com/notyixiangs/status/1838196401853087761?t=DMIgJHkTAoRQNquUkAb5QA&s=19
How does one knows the length of ju yang is 30cm? Is it stated somewhere in the scroll of The History of General Nan Yang? Or General Xuan Zhen personally came into your dream so that you make correct representation?
(I loooooovveeeee when ppl use their uni major knowledge for fandom stuff. Pls keep calculate the physics of fx love ❤)
hi anon thank you for your interest in our research endeavours =] we prayed to general xuan zhen ourselves with the inquiry and he kindly offered us this piece of information in exchange for some advice on how to un-repress one's emotions.
omg xiying do u know that for my creative writing class my prof accepts fic as assignments.... my grade literally depends on fic i write😭
OMG THAT SCRAZY
hi xixi this is ruru… first order of business i’m glad the reanxi meetup went well‼️‼️ it was genuinely heartening to see you two on my tl :)
i’ve been thinking a lot about absence lately, and how our lives are (surprisingly often) shaped by what we lacked (or perceived the lack of) instead of what we had. kaveh vs al-haitham and how they deal with love and grief…. something that was and then wasn’t…. how do you live your life around those empty spaces…. how did you grow around them…….
HIII THANK U RURU OMG sorry this is so late i hadnt formed like a coherent thought in ages so i was struggling to articulate myself lolll but yes definitely grief is such an important theme for haikaveh for me i think its also rly interesting that for haitham his parents died really early on so its like grieving something you never truly touched vs. kaveh whos grieving his very much tangible memories of his parents. but haitham also has the grief @ his grandmother ofc.
i feel like haitham... he just learned to somehow endure the grief through clenched teeth... years of rattling and violent shaking until ultimately peace.... and now he deals with it pretty healthily. but with kveh his grief shapes him jnto thinking he needs to earn things to deserve them !! because he wasnt good so his parents were taken away...
lol, ignore this if this is cringy. But I found FengQing angsty because they really don’t like each other throughout the novel, you can call it hate even. And yeah, Xie Lian is the glue that holds them “together”. But then you have FX recognising his shadow easily… They’re so in sync when it comes to fighting and honestly, you cannot just not care for one another in the process. Especially when you have to protect eo. Subconsciously, they care. Consciously, they hate. UGH EW. Sorry I’m not articulate
hi not cringy at all! you actually nailed their dynamic and i agree with everything you said here. especially the "consciously, they hate. subconsciously, they care" yeah. yeah yeah yeah. to me in the novel fengqing have a lot of animosity and i do actually think they resent each other a lot, particularly on feng xin's part it's very obvious (he holds a very strong grudge against mq for leaving) and for mu qing its the entire undercurrent of how feng xin has always treated him as lesser. tbh, in canon, everything feng xin says to mu Qing has been extremely cruel up till the bridge scene. but then its so sad because in the end they dont want each other to die, and they are the ones who know each others best after being together for so many years.... (as u said the shadow + the fighting being in sync) and in a sense they are the only ones who can match each other in this way. theyre the only ones who know each other this well precisely bc theyve spent so many centuries trying to get under each others' skin, seen past each other's best and worst.... :( in the end no matter how much they hate each other, you cant deny that theyve also been at each others side for 800 years :( and the care leaks through the cracks of their "conscious" exteriors with mu qing trying to save feng xin from the fire + feng xin saving mu qing from the lava (i like to think mu qing was so frantic and worried while saving feng xin from fire + that there on the bridge was the moment feng xin was struck with the terrifying realization like 'oh. i dont actually want mu qing to die. i dont—i dont actually want to hurt mu qing at all. at least, not anymore. oh shit.') they give me brainworms. "ugh ew" is the correct descriptor. i hate them!!!!!! (affectionate)
how tall ru
160cm
what uni are you in
im not doxxing myself what
as a struggling astrophysics student, any advice for studying physics or science in general
hi i rawdog my degree crying and screaming so idk how useful my tips will be but i think try not to skip classes/lectures and if u do, try to catch up asap with the lecture notes or recordings, do more practice questions & past exam papers if ur uni/school has that, consolidate ur understanding & knowledge regularly over the year, when revising in exam season prioritize understanding the core concepts (and the math skills) rly well first and then do it in detail, a lot of details can usully be derived from the core concepts anyway (like if i cant remember all the forumlae i remember the most important and the others can be derived.) dimensional analysis also helps w getting the form of equations right
Hello xiying, thank you for loving fengqing and haikaveh and always have a lot to say about them. Thank you for being you. I hope you always have a wonderful every day (and may ur period cramps stops)
hellooo thank you for this kind message!!! i love to talk about fengqing and haikaveh <3
hi xi :-)
HI!
(hi xiying this is ruru ^_^) the idea of haunting makes me crazy. afterimage of the other person in your memory…. voice in your ear telling you how x y z thing is done after they’re long dead/estranged from you…. flash of hair the same color or a similar silhouette and you chase after them to find out it was no one at all…. bright eyes or a ringing laugh reminding you of them and suddenly you’re brought back 5 years when nothing went wrong btwn you two…. (this is about hkvh)
omg i love haunting. and like haunting metaphors even if its stuff like your own past haunting you. I LOVE THE THING ABOUT SUDDENLY YOURE BROUGHT BACK 5 YEARS AGO ETC its so good like when theres a ghostly string tugging at your ankle and you think you’re walking along fine and suddenly theres a sharp yank and you’re thrown backward 10000 steps and youre like oh fuck
XI how honest do you think kaveh is
omgomg let me think. so like i think he’d try his best to be honest for integrity reasons since i think he does value that, in terms of transparency in work and stuff, honest with his clients about every step in his commission etc. and with friends (or haitham) when it comes to matters that do not touch the things that he feels wounded by. like if he’s speaking about everyday events like idk what he did in a day or his opinion on a building or a concept, things like that, he’d be pretty honest
BUT when it does come to the things that he keeps buried inside himself i think he’s a very good liar who even lies to himself so much that he’s almost gaslighting himself. whether that be an actual vocal lie or him omitting the truth/circumventing it in crafty ways. he’d lie about how much he takes care of himself to his friends like if someone asks if he’s eaten he’d say yes even if he hasnt, or play down the number of bottles he’s drank during one night, etc. he’d also lie about being okay / not needing help bc guilt / his inability to ask for undeserved help. pre-reconciliation he lied about not living with haitham (or at least hid the truth) because it makes him feel guilty + humiliated too. he wouldnt really be honest about his feelings (but theres an inconsistency because i think he’d be fine showing how angry he is at a client if they disrespect his craft but he would be not fine showing his self doubt or grief, stuff like that)
with haitham specifically he probably lies the most (pre-reconciliation also) because he just . yeah. thinks haitham disdains him (False) . and he even lies to himsefl about haitham disdaining him becuase
i think deep down he can see the acts of kindness haitham’s offering but because he doesnt know how to face haitham if he were to accept the fact that he really is doing them out of his heart and not for the sake of receiving benefits in return, he’d rather make himself believe that haithams doing it out of derision and turn it into a whole transactional thing. probably the biggest lie hes ever woven in his life and its so seamless that it almost becomes the truth to his mind. & then everything else haitham does gets twisted to feed this fallacy so its just this Giant Web of fabricated lie
ie he’d be honest about impersonal topics or opinions he feels strongly about (like beauty art creation science integrating into design etc) but an extremely good liar about the deeper personal things
