Bio
Thank you to everyone who's offered kudos, comments, subscribed and publicly bookmarked, you all keep me inspired.
My stories are about The Untamed/MoDaoZuShi, pretty much across all versions though I prefer the live action series. I like to fill gaps in canon but occasionally I'll mash up events and timelines. My favourite characters are WangXian. There's angst and melancholy, but also many light-hearted moments. I like experimenting with motifs and styles. I'm rating conservatively. Things not in my stories: Slang, intimate violence leading to happy endings (does not at all compute for me), fix-its; reframing abuse as 'tough love', timetravel, friends and magic as a fix-all, technical 'how-to' for intimacy, a/b/o (though WWX's body becomes ambiguous in some of my 'Wedding' stories, and Wangji gets a 'belly-zipper' in my tongue-in-cheek 'Fairytale AU'.)
I've interpreted some relationships a bit differently: LWJ adopts Wen Yuan as his Younger Brother, LWJ and WWX have a soul-bond and handfasting, I've cast disciples as students, and titled LWJ as His Lordship in hommage to his noble blood-lineage (and in keeping with his title as -jun).
From the timing it appears that some people have copied but not credited non-canon motifs from mine ('almost two decades', 'third floorboard', WWX's ghosts, WWX identity crisis in MXY's shell, WWX never straying far from Cloud Recesses during his time of travel post ep.50, his plaited hair-ribbon, his ancient Wei clan, Wangji's near-religious imagery for worshipping Wei Ying, Wei Ying book-keeper/treasurer, feeble/unsympathetic Xichen, scheming Lan Council of Elders...). A friend said that somewhere someone took a whole clutch of them and a storyline into one of their stories, hiding behind language and timelapse. I don't mind, just be decent, it doesn't hurt. Even if I'm not on social media to promote my stories.
