okay *cracks knuckles* time for my socmed promo posts

my ao3 wrapped! this is probably the fifth year in a row mdzs fic has dominated my reading. also you can see the effects of my bagginshield obsession hehe. and kisa dominating because of me STILL making my way through 'and time is but a paper moon'

i'm still listening to kisahawklin's time is but a paper moon series when I have longer journeys, and it's so nice to have a familiar universe to sink into. i must have started it in june or july?

look who I found

repping the phandom at pride

found the forbidden section of my cloud recesses library

hey isn't this what xie lian is carrying in his sleeve?

chapter 6, a sweet flirty domestic chapter, is up now~

Agh, it's over!! Thank you so much to @ginevrafangirl.bsky.social for recording every chapter of #TGCF and providing recaps and commentary for every single one of them. I learned so much, laughed a lot and cried at points. Beautiful story read by a wonderful podficcer!

xie lian core

the last chapter of tgcf is online. thank you all SO much for following me and I'm so happy and proud to be done with this project, after 1.5 years. ❤️😭

just listened to this whole series (as in heard the song while reading the lyrics) and it's truly excellent!!!! I'm now imagining lwj as an avid Chappell Roan song, because no one identifies with sapphic yearning like him 😌

omg!!!! a Chappell Roan wangxian filk for meee!???? WHATTTT

cold read audiobook: tgcf volume 8 it's time for the final chapters of this epically long journey, so join me as we see if xie lian and hua cheng can finally defeat jun wu! tgcfforbeginners.wordpress.com

hey this is just like in waiting for spring

cold read audiobook: tgcf volume 7 after surviving all that angst and pain we have now a lot of ACTION and FLIRTING and MYSTERY! enjoy this avenger's endgame-esque volume. chapters will be posting daily now, as everything has been recorded. tgcfforbeginners.wordpress.com

I lost my mind and wrote a wangxian filk to Red Wine Supernova, as a gift for @mulberrygraceful.bsky.social! Congrats again on finishing Wfs and TBoS! Thank you to @ginevrafangirl.bsky.social for all of your guidance (and filking)! archiveofourown.org/works/682740...

can't believe it's well and truly over. what a ride it's been, and I've only been in the little side car!

And we round things off with this 2,5 hr behind the scenes podcast with host @ginevrafangirl.bsky.social Lots of WfS fic series feels and podficcing thoughts, lots of yapping, laughs and a little q+a Enjoy. The end ⚾ archiveofourown.org/works/67523466

ngl this is my favorite one. it's the surprise youngest child born years after the middle child that somehow gets the best of the parents qualities and the kids that came before.

If demonic cultivation was a baseball walk-up song, this final Waiting for Spring series filk would be it. BAMF wwx vibes provided yet again by @ginevrafangirl.bsky.social's BAMF lyrics, and I had the pleasure of exploring my lower register (not a euphemism lol) archiveofourown.org/works/67521156

Oh you thought we were done? When Lan Wangji also has a walk-on song to be filkified??? Have another baseball au filk to add to the goodbye playlist. Lyrics by the impeccable @ginevrafangirl.bsky.social, vocals and editing by yours truly ENJOY⚾🔥 archiveofourown.org/works/67516401

Another Waiting for Spring filk? WHY YES! ⚾ Ending it on Lan Zhan's pining would've been too sad. Instead you get a new version of The Patriarch's walk-up song, with @ginevrafangirl.bsky.social's bamfiest lyrics to date. And I got to rap again wohohoo! ENJOY! archiveofourown.org/works/67487341

Welcome to the Waiting for Spring podfic series wrap party, folks. DJ @ginevrafangirl.bsky.social wrote us all this INCREDIBLE filk, which I had the pleasure of recording. Inspired by The Boys of Summer by @thievinghippo.bsky.social archiveofourown.org/works/67484121

me while listening to this:
