Oh. My god.
I'm moving tomorrow. I hired movers, so I had my dog and cat locked up in rooms while the front door stayed open. Cat yells bloody murder all day.
The movers leave, I let the pets out while I settle payment and then clean up a bit.
And that's when I realize I can't find the cat.

So! Well.
Gonna need a lot of distractions in the nearby future, I see.
(Every time my mind starts to wander I can feel my brain twisting just that little bit more. Distractions. Yes.)

Guardian thread, episode 8!
So, a month has passed since GCC started at the SID and ZYL met Shen Wei? Geez, that’s like two cases a week?
I think for my own headcanon, I’m marking this time period as at least two months. Makes more sense that way, imo! and that is all that matters, tyvm.

Trigun is such a weird fandom for me, because it feels like the kind of show that would have TONS of fics Right Up My Alley and it just... doesn't, haha
(there are lots of good fics! but only, like, three that hit that sweet spot for me. and one of them's a WIP from spring, ahahaha, sob)

Post-cql, WWX's "travels" end with him on Mianmian's doorstep, BEGGING her to tell him how she pulled it off:
- Defected from her sect WITHOUT triggering a war
- Lives in a nice little house
- Is a badass working cultivator
- Got her man (!!) to put a metaphorical ring on it
Like, damn.

Welcome to episode 7 of Guardian, where we learn why you don’t ever mess with Shen Wei’s jewelry.
Briefcase, fine. Wallet, sure.
But hands off the necklace.

Everyone in the SID gets hit with a truth telling compulsion - including their consultant. Oh no.

Readers! Start writing letters to publishing directors saying you do not want AI generated books/art/audio/translations. Tell them you value human creativity and skills. Say you want your purchases guaranteed AI free. Paper letters work best if you can afford the stamp. Let's see what they say?
Sadly, almost every large publishing group is coming back with a refusal to entertain any AI clauses. This isn't through a lack of trying, it's boards refusing to be constrained on the subject yet.
One group is willing to agree to no AI-training, but no more. Not even on AI-translations.
One group is willing to agree to no AI-training, but no more. Not even on AI-translations.
Please, authors, have this clause inserted into your contracts. It prevents publishers using AI-generated voices to narrate an audiobook of your work. For further AI-prevention clauses relating to cover art and translations, visit the Authors Guild: authorsguild.org/news/ag-intr...

Back to the case, we got ourselves a pocket dimension! (not for fix-its, I'M JUST SAYING.)
Lao Chu can’t use his powers in there, but luckily the Envoy can.
He just needs to stick that superhero landing entrance first, ofc. Always gotta make an entrance.

Every time WWX comes back to the Cloud Recesses, LWJ has a bigger and bigger hair piece. WWX is honestly starting to worry about neck strain.
(Jingyi, knowingly: HGJ is coping with his pining by over accessorizing.
Sizhui, who agrees: Shhhhhh.)

Guardian, ep 6 - the case of the girl in the mirror! Thread:
Some pretty interesting parallels here with the girl lying and the guy not knowing who she really is (or who he's in love with).
Compare to Shen Wei, who also isn't what he seems, and ZYL, who's still figuring out what to do with that.

Tbh, I think there's more than a little of Madam Yu in Jiang Yanli, especially when it comes to Their Family.
(One of their biggest differences is whether or not Wei Wuxian counts as Family.)

During the Yiling Patriarch arc especially, whenever I see WWX's red robe I just think - open wound, raw, not healed.
I think it says a lot that by the end the only bit of red we see on WWX is the ribbon in his hair.
