I Think I Am In Shock And Sad. I Got Done With The Dentist. It Isn't Good News Folks.

I think I am in shock and sad. I got done with the dentist. It isn't good news folks.

About the Wei Wuxian poll, I know you put "nuance" but I think "both" should be a separate answer. Most people are generally a mix of nature and nurture. I think the latter usually weighs more heavily on a person, but personality isn't always entirely due to environment, and in Wei Wuxian's case, I think he naturally has a fun-loving personality (which is NOT to mean he's dumb. I think we're shown very early on in the novel that Wei Wuxian is a genius, and part of his lack of focus is simply due to already knowing and surpassing what he's supposed to be learning), but it is greatly exacerbated by the environment he grew up in, leading to his rule-breaking.

I appreciate the feedback and will consider it for future polls if I do something similar. I did intend for it to be for people who lean more to one or the other between nurture/ nature with the word mostly in the answers doing some heavy lifting. One of the first things we learned in my early childhood education is that people are a mix! I didn't intend to say he is one or the other, but that it might skew one way or the other and which way is it skewed if that is the case.

I am working on a story in which he is age regressed, to an age before he was taken off the streets by Jiang Fengmian, while he's at the Cloud Recesses Lectures. So he's without all the formative years of Lotus Pier and I was curious if people thought, as I do, that little kid Wei Ying might be *very* different to teen Wei Wuxian. But I didn't want to bias people, which was why I phrased it the way I did.

But I'm new to making polls and maybe from an information gathering perspective it would be better to separate out the both answer. Thanks for your answer!

TLDR: I agree that people are made up of both nature and nurture, but I was wondering: of the people who think one or the other is a stronger influence, which do they think is stronger?

You’re getting married to your Tumblr pfp how fucked are u

welp, here's the long awaited first chapter of my retelling of MDZS from Lan Wangji's POV. it's only 2k words now, but if you hop on the train early, you can suffer with me slowly! we're starting out all angsty, but i promise some humorous detours along the way.

finally drew a comic of a sappy moment from one of my fics :)
