Where Shen Yuan managed to strike a perfect balance between caring teacher and strict, distant immortal, and Binghe grows into his demon heritage and acquires his harem, but has no interest in revenge and has no feelings for his former Shizun besides warm affection and kinship for one of his best friends. However, somewhere along the line, SQQ figures out that he has feelings for LBH, and kinda just resigns himself to his pining and tells no one. Instead, he writes an awful lot of poems and songs — pieces so beautiful that word of them reaches past Cang Qiong. Some say the songs were so lovely that they quelled even the worst qi deviations. Some say that an ordinary human couldn't withstand them without weeping inconsolably. Some even tell of cultivators visiting the mountain just to be graced by Shen Qingqiu's soulful melodies.

Eventually rumors of Qing Jing's lovelorn Peak Lord reach Binghe's ears. In true best friend fashion, he visits and makes SY breakfast and drags him out of bed to eat, before asking about the rumors.

SQQ looks at him quietly, before putting his head on the table and watching him silently. Binghe sees the melancholy in his eyes and assumes someone broke SQQ's heart. So he spends a lot of time trying to get a name, because gasp!!! Who dares break the Demon Emperor's best friend's heart? His gege is a catch, and he'd gouge out the eyes of anyone who dared to disagree. He asks Shang Qinghua, but even the squirrelly man refuses to tell him anything, insisting that it's not his secret to tell.

So LBH resolves to come back every day to badger SQQ (and feed him). SQQ stubbornly tells him nothing, of course.

Until one day, LBH is a little late for their little appointments and looks for SQQ. He finds him in the bamboo forest, seated on an elevated ledge overlooking the rest of the Peaks. He's playing a song, a guqin perched in his lap, delicate fingers strumming the strings as gently as one would skim the surface of water.

LBH doesn't realize he's crying until he tastes salt on his tongue.

so dreamy (cr. taee)

Oh my godddddd this is so beautiful!

She took a second to really think about it, and no. She had not one single regret. She wasn’t sure if there was anything in the world that could make her find one, either - not when there’d be a ‘real ceremony’ in two short months. Everyone else could have that one. 

This was just for them.

Here’s one good thing to come out of 2020:

Paleontologists completed a life-sized replica of Sue, the most complete T. Rex ever found.

And she is freaking GORGEOUS!

As I read more about this beauty, I found out some new details regarding things I thought I previously knew about the beast that was Tyrannosaurus Rex, and I’m going to share them with you.

First, and most obvious, her size:

This is nothing new, we all figured T. Rex was big, but I for one never stopped to consider exactly how big it was. Nobody ever really knows what to imagine when they read about something the size of a whale that walked around and ate everything it could kill. 

Speaking of eating things, I just want to remind you all that T. Rex had–by miles–the strongest bite of any terrestrial animal living or dead, somewhere around six and a half tons of force. That’s over six times greater than the current estimate of what Allosaurus was capable of, and three times what was delivered by the highest measured reading of the living title holder–the estuarine crocodile. It didn’t have to waste time swinging its head open-mouthed like Saurophaganax for a little extra oomph, or grow fancy serrated teeth like Carcharodontosaurus to cut pieces out of its prey. It opted for the simplest approach: get its mouth around something and crush it to death; imagine the full weight of an elephant on whatever was between this thing’s jaws.

“How did it find something to eat?” I hear you asking. “It can’t see something if it doesn’t move, right?”

Listen, I love Jurassic Park too, but that’s a big crock of shit.

Notice how both her eyes face forward. That gives her binocular vision (the ability to focus both eyes on one target, like you and I). More importantly it means she has impeccable depth perception due to overlapping fields of vision from each, large, eyeball. Researchers agree that T. Rex not only had incredible vision, but that it was probably better than most modern animals–including eagles, hawks, and owls–and that she could likely spot something three and a half miles away. If something that big can see that well, it doesn’t matter if you move or not, she’d be able to tell if it was an animal trying to hide or a piece of vegetation. So pray she isn’t hungry if she lays eyes on you. And even if by some miracle she didn’t see you, she’d still smell you. 

If she decided you looked tasty, you probably wouldn’t hear her coming as much as you’d feel her. Modern science indicates that T. Rex didn’t roar like in Jurassic Park, but rather bellowed or maybe even hissed like crocodilians. If she were on to you, you’d most likely feel this sense of unease creep up your spine as a low-pitched rumble in the air permeated through you. You wouldn’t know what it was or where it was coming from until you hear her footfalls. By then it’s too late–you could try to run but she’d probably catch you. There’s plenty on YouTube that reconstructs what T. Rex may have sounded like, and it’s legitimately haunting.  

To wrap all of this up, the one bit of good that came out of the cursed year that is 2020 is that this wonderful child of science and art came into the world, and reaffirmed my respect and admiration for the eight ton slab of muscle and teeth that is this magnificent creature.

…and it is nothing if not magnificent.

Imagine your Otp- and they were roommates

daft pretty boys !!!!

.. <- two ants hanging out

Characters who are yellow coded not as in joy and optimism but, rather, yellow as in the first color the human eye will notice, plastered over hazard signs and school buses. Yellow as in a light so bright it burns. Yellow as in illness and disease, just waiting to infect. Yellow as deception, a cover up for something with teeth and claws and malice. Can anyone hear me

The other day I asked one of the staff at school if his cultural food was good and he said it was pretty mid. That got me curious.
