#cat's out of the bag

[beneaththebrim]

So...

Vermilion Bird gave me permission to publicly share the (heretofore secret) 《烈火浇愁》 translation I completed last year. My hope is that they will continue to translate and the availability of my own translation will not impact their translators’ motivation. Their translators are fluent in the source language; I am not, and my translations are learning translations. Nevertheless, I’ll share my translation on a limited basis, via gdocs.

Rules are the same as for my Shangxian translation, you have to show me proof of payment of the original to get access. In addition, since Vermilion Bird still has an ongoing translation, I will be strict and not allow any loopholes to this requirement.

To get access, send me an ask or DM with 1) [a screenshot of your recent spending record on jjwxc] OR [any volume of the physical edition of Liehuo you bought, with a timestamp post-it] AND, 2) [your fandom/burner email] (please do not send me an email address connected to your irl name, and please make sure it is a gmail account so that it is compatible with the invite/access system)

Intro document

Reference guide

If anyone notices mistranslations or grammar mistakes, please let me know--because this was a learning translation and moreover the first CN->EN translation I did, it is not at the same level of quality as my Shangxian translation. I’m hoping to revisit it at some point (and in particular compare the web edition to the print edition), though I have some other things that are higher up on my to-do list.

No reposting or unauthorized sharing of my translation. Please do not retranslate my work into other languages.

#烈火浇愁 #lie huo jiao chou #drowning sorrows in raging fire #translation #priest #I love Vermilion Bird's translation of the title and leave it unchanged #I'm sure some people guessed whenever I vaguely gestured to having done a project before shangxian #haha #well #cat's out of the bag #as for flaws #I likely translated some idioms overly literally #and also was a bit inconsistent with editing decisions #in addition to other issues #liehuo's a hard novel and when I look back idek how I managed to plow through it like I did #I basically just put in 9-10 hour days during the first year of my unemployment and worked on it obsessively #for 10 months #which oddly enough recharged my soul after being severely burnt out from grad school #yes I am autistic thanks for asking

i couldn't figure out why the tension on the rigid heddle was so bad, nor why it seemed worse every time i pick it up.

i think i've cracked the case.

anyhow, my next big-loom project was going to be tea towels, but now i think it's going to be a cat hammock.

#weaving #cats #fibre crafts #please excuse the grocery bags in the background #i hadn't gotten around to taking toiletries etc to where they belong so they were just hanging out #smartest raccoon i know

[wiltkingart]

#*shakes these images like a bag of cat treats* come get y'alls gender! #how are we feeling about those new songs gamers #sonic #sonadow #sonic the hedgehog #shadow the hedgehog #fanart #digital #original art #wasnt planning on drawing them again so soon but i wanted an excuse to work with brighter colors #and i've had these sketches sitting around collecting dust #so this is me shaking out my brain like a rug

[apt502-if]

Uh so if Andi is a RO is it possible to keep them as a friend and not start the whole drama thing? I just wanna have besties 😭

Don't romance/flirt/pursue them and you'll be fine lol

#mail #about: andi sharma #:> #jus keep it strictly platonic and the game won't flag a romance or any of the drama #since the cat's fully out of the bag......... #there's also a difference between platonic flirting and romantic flirting and the game will tell you which choices are which :>

"I don't think I ever saw him as happy as I did that day"

not gonna lie, I slayed with this design

I only like, teased it once ominously but this is to show

anyways this is what happens when the gay magicals hold hands- or well they can. get to this only if their bond is deep enough. can't just give power fore barely any cooperation n all

anyways Magical Earth!4 for yall :3 maybe if yall ask me nicely, I'll show off 3 better too, though I might change his design a bit cuz there's a few things I don't like about it oof

#smg4 #smg34 #it's implied. I stated. they get to this point by being gay as all fuck (they don't realise it btw) #smg4 au #yknow that thing about how magical girls stuff will have the most stunning shit according to how powerful they are #that's what I'm doing rn #also it's to show what dynamic they go for #for 3 and 4 it's Earth-Moon #fun fact! for 1 and 2 it will be sunset and sunrise. didn't get to that yet tho #oh and when I like. let out the cat outta the bag and tell all about Spudnick in this AU and that where he is :3 hehehe :33333333

Important Announcement!

After several weeks of planning, storyboarding, drawing, rendering and dealing with a frustrating amount of image upload difficulties, I’m happy to announce that my big project is finally finished!!

Behold, the newly rewritten and redrawn version of The Boy in the Walls webcomic:

It will now have longer episodes, better and more understandable dialogue, and be more organized. I’m so happy to be able to finally share it with all you lovely people! Please enjoy, and be sure to give me feedback on anything.

Genuinely hating the fact that people have to look really closely at art to see whether it's AI or not and like, zooming in and pointing out the little bits that don't match.

Because like, it's really fucking hard for me to calm down on obsessive details and trying to make everything perfect and make sense, to make sure that every lock of hair has an invisible follow line.

I get so bogged down in details that I ruin my art and the only thing that's been able to save me so far is to repeat to myself that no one fucking cares if this doesn't match up perfectly. But they do now. Everyone cares. We are zooming in on artworks and pointing out things that could have just been overlooked as human error.

Machine generated art means I feel like I'm not allowed to have human error any more. I have to be pixel perfect. I can't just vibe. I can't even imply.

And I think about that and become too exhausted to even start.

#there is no point to this #theres nothing i think we can even do #the cat is out of the bag and we now live in an era of computer generated art #yes this is about the mtg ai art scandal #the zoom in just makes me feel like we have reached the death of digital art #a little bit of nonsense stutter texture on a dial #and a bit of somethign that doesnt line up in the background #stuff that ive specifically stopped myself from fixing in my own art in the past #in order to try and break free of toxic perfectionism #im just so tired #this isnt a defence of mtg #this is just me being so done #i dont think ive done a single digital painting since the ai stuff began #and i havent pposted any of my traditional media #personal

brother’s best friend

cw: pussy eating <3

part 1 part 2

“shshshh” gojo hushes in response to your light moans as he kisses each thigh, gesturing your legs to hook over his shoulders. your little secret relationship had been going on for the last two months. sneaking in kisses in between the aisles at the library, holding hands under the table, and of course, scenarios like these in your dorm where he’s lapping his tongue like a meditative prayer between your legs. all in secret because god only knows what would happen if word got out that you two were a things. especially if it got to your brother’s ears.

running your fingers through his soft, snowy hair you let out airy, pathetic whines in pleasure, “f-fuck~” eyelids fluttering as you hope this feeling lasts forever…

the feeling is cut short by a knock at your door. startled, you jolt, pulling gojo up by his hair. “hello, y/n, you here?” fuck. shit. nononono. getou is standing outside, oblivious to the degenerate activities occurring behind the door. you and gojo stare wide-eyed at each other. another knock, “y/n?”

your instinct kicks in, “yea?! sorry just woke up from a nap.” you pretend to yawn, “what’s up?” gojo smirks at your blatant lie and proceeds to lower his head down to your heat again.

“um, did you forget we were supposed to get dinner with gojo? for some reason he’s not answering his phone so i’d thought get you first.”

before you could respond gojo starts sucking on that sweet spot again, “OH! i-it totally slipped m-my mind.” you shoot your head towards gojo, giving death glares into his crystal blue eyes. “you ok? you sound like you're out of breath?” your brother’s worry only agitates your anxiety but for some reason, the pleasure from gojo’s mouth is almost ethereal by the way it moves against your heat.

"i'm...i u-uh feel a bit under the weather." you state while faking a cough. "well you should've said something, i coulda brought medicine for you, if you open up i can-" you immediately cut him off with a "nope!" and at the same time you feel two of gojo's slender fingers slide into you. the silence behind the door is loud. you decide to break it, " 'just don't wanna get you sick too, it's p-pretty bad.."

getou sighs, "ok, guess i’ll check again and see if gojo is up for dinner still." you hear foots walk away from the door , and gojo believes it too as he continues eating you like a starved man. you hiss a whisper to him, "i'm so gonna kill you". he removes his mouth with a pop from you clit, "you sure you wanna do that before coming?" and already knowing the answer he dips down again.

a blaring ringtone comes from gojo's pocket and you immediately know it was the one he assigned to getou. getou booms from the other side of the door, never having left, "GOJO YOU SICK FUCK I KNOW YOURE IN THERE FUCKING MY SISTER!"

yea, you're gonna kill him.
