Borrowing your gif, Elise.

XY's expression here is that of someone who knew she'd done f*** up! :-)

 Elise:
Controversial opinion maybe but I'm totally fine with FFB/XL "spending time" with other women lol. XY does stuff with that fox and XL feels it sooo... He should grab whatever pleasure he can get.

If I ignored my head-cannon about the Lovers Bugs, then I'm all for it. There are no promises or understanding between them, so why the heck not?

I feel another fanfic idea coming on. XY experiencing all the feels from Xiang Liu's...ahem...erotic adventures!! And realizing that Jing couln't even begin to compare. And realizing that she had f*** up!

Is that too cruel? Do I even care if it is? :-)

 nathsketch:

I never really got this. Even with all those lengthy analyses on our Harvard thread, this seems so difficult to understand. I think it all comes down to her being able to love two people. But I'm petty and I dislike this :D

But according to the bug if she loves anyone other than XL she and XL would die. They butchered show XY

 Liu Yifei:

Then nothing makes sense. Except that Xiang Liu is the best character ever. That's all. 

 nathsketch:

It's so odd to have a manipulating character also be boring. That's an abomination. Not even his manipulating side can make him interesting ahahahaha

Nothing on the planet can make him interesting not even his scars. The most boring ever. Look at XL even his head tilt is a thing of interest

He's the best . No matter what he does.

"Erm, is it too late to take back the 'you're not the kind of guy to enter a girl's dream' nonsense I've just said"?

Girl, bye. LOL

I feel it's a necessity.

Yo, but the head tilt tho.

Dang.

It's the best, that's why he's the most interesting character ever

 Elise:
Such a late reply but I just read the second one. I agree with what you said. Honestly, everyone was out of character and XL didn't seem like himself at all.


 Elise:
Gosh, I'm so harsh critiquing fanfic lol (it's just my opinion ^^"). But it's nice to see more English fanfic writers for LYF :)

My favorite fanfic so far is still https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/555723806

And I started to read this one, it's an AU with Xiao Yao (when she was still Xiao Liu) leaving days before Cang Xuan could capture her https://archiveofourown.org/works/49991599/chapters/126221257

Yes. Everyone was OOC. And the vibe was just off. I wonder if the author came from an Asian background, 'cause some of it could be due to cultural differences. That said, I appreciate people who tried - writing is not easy. And I admire people who are willing to put their work out there. 

I read the second one. I just wish it was a little bit more passionate. Haha, I have such a one-track mind. But, I feel like there is a lot of passion between these two - and suppressed passion will have an amplifying effect - so once they do get together, it should be hot and tender. 

I'll give the other one a shot. Always looking for good YaoLiu's fic.

 nathsketch:
He definitely didn't. But the question is: do y'all think he could do the stuff we think he can do?

Asking for a friend lmao

How could you ever doubt our 9-heads demon? Aren't you writing 50 Shades of Silver. I expect big things, missy :-)

 Elise:
He was FFB for hundreds of years before he met XY and was known to be a playboy. He visited those dance halls and brothels soooo....... yes, he knows how to do that stuff.

Um-hum! Plus, we know that he has discipline and diligence (look at the way he trained the resistance army), so he would have practice until he got it right ;-)


It's a sad life I lead, that I'm speculating on fictional characters' sex life. Lol

 HeadInTheClouds:

Oh dear! Do we need to practice some deep breathing again, nathsketch?

I can see that Jing had reached "bitch, eating crackers" level with you :-)

Is that about right?

I didn't even know about this, but yes!  I think Jing has reached this critical level for many folks here.  The roasting has been elevated to new levels.


Meanwhile ... I just STARING at Fang Feng Bei and XL.



 Kokuto:

Kokuto, that first gif almost got me killed. I'm in tears right now hahahahahahahahahahahahahah


I need to stare for a bit as well to stop laughing

 Liu Yifei:
Well in that if XY really loved Jing she and XL would have been dead but as far as we know it has not happened. So what if XY was just faking it

There are essays over on the Harvard thread about the controversial Lovers Bugs topic. Opinions are divided. I'm of the opinion that XY "likes" Jing, but doesn't "loves" him in a romantic way because the Lovers Bugs would have turned. Other think that the Lovers Bugs allow you to love multiple people, as long as you still love your bugs partner. 

There are also disagreements over whether physical intimacy would/should turn the Lovers bugs into Hearbreak Bugs. I made an observation about this a few pages back to liddi. I might have to throw it over to the Harvard Thread for more essays :-).

Why is the room spinning?

I have nothing to add to that. Except to say that happy lives are overrated.

No, it's not cruel >:) Someone should definitely write this.

Lol. To further add to this observation (just in case you're not sufficiently dead ;-)). Besides discipline and diligence, we also know that he's adventurous and spontaneous. He's open to new ideas, so you just know that he's up for some experimenting and spur-of-the-moment escapades. No boring, single-position, all-day, every-day crap here.  You're gonna get all the good stuff ;-)


I feel like I'm a terrible, corrupting influence on you :-). But, life is too short to be serious all the time
