ITS JELLY INFODUMP TIME WAHAHSHEHW

putting a read more bc its VERY LONG i wrote a ton of stuff abt them heheuehheu

alright so. for the basics jelly's a dj and (occasional) reporter for channel 42 since from what i know channel 42 mostly centers around entertainment, specifically music. and also bc of this!!! jelly has his own show called "jelly's nighttime jammin' show where they basically play music on their turn table and play music videos and concert recordings until the next morning. and for what she reports on, they usually do interviews with music artists and report on upcoming solos, albums, and concerts (i did take alot of inspo from the fact thaf ulala was supposed to have a show on mtv doing basically the same thing for jelly's show)!!! he also works with pudding alot but its usually on pudding's show to help out with the music on her show (jelly and pudding are also really good friends!! i also like to think jelly is cool with ulala too)!!

more info abt jelly outside of their job at ch 42,,, they're supposed to be an alien species thats like. humanoid sea slugs!!! jelly themself is supposed to be a humanoid leaf sheep sea slug (this is literally bc i love sea slugs alot especially leaf sheep sea slugs theyre my fav sea animal along with jellyfish)!!!! this isn't something he can do but sometimes i like to imagine jelly can turn into an actual leaf sheep sea slug i just think its silly,,,,,, but for her personality theyre super relaxed and friendly and they tend to get along with people well! bc of this they get along great with their coworkers (like pudding) and sometimes even reporters from competing channels (like ulala and mayyybeeeee the jaguars...,,,,,,, not because i dont think they would be friendly or be friends but bc ive rarely seen pudding and jaguar interact so idk o_O). jelly's also kind of an air head and has their head in the clouds alot so 9 times out of 10 they r NOT paying attention to where they are or what theyre doing (shes just like me...).

i cant think of more stuff abt jelly so this is it for now thank u all for listening

#space channel 5 #lei rambles hehe #ALSO. TO EVERYONE WHO ASKED. JELLY WILL GLADLY HOLD YOUR HAND AND WILL BE YOUR FRIEND!!!!!! :)#jelly #ocs

Tobio acts all that "King of the Court" stuff in front of everyone else (being a great setter, professional in games, yada yada), but in front of his s/o, he goes all dorky and cute.

Oh, did I mention how he gets all flustered and blushy? Also how he listen's to s/o rambling on and on about something even though he's not knowledgeable about the topic? Yeah, my heart melted.

//Kageyama Tobio is really just my type of s/o and I'm sad that there's no one like him in my life.

HE TOTALLY DOES AND KASJDGKASHGDASKHGD thats why we love our setter 😌

hes so adorable when yall are alone and i feel like he even gets a tad bit touchy- not like a clingy touch (yet hehe) but i feel like he likes to have at least some contact with you he just enjoys touching you yk

YES YES YES YES YOU LOVE IT WHEN HE GETS FLUSTERED AND BLUSHY YOU LOOOVE TO TEASE HIM ITS SO FUNNY- he will most definitely fly a little defensive insults but yk they mean nothing and its just so cute to see him like this

kageyama tobio is a man we all need but a man we cant have 😔

Here’s a list of random things that tickle my funny bone for no reason in the Kyoshi novels

(as a Mandarin speaker)

am working through the novels currently so light spoilers?

will continue to update as I go

click 4 sum fun rambles

Horse stance. THIS BITCH DESERVES THE TOP SPOT SO HERE GOES. I somehow did not make this connection until like I’m almost all the way through the book, but 扎马步 (zhā mǎ bù) or if you take the literal meaning of characters “poke horse step” is literally so well known it’s insane. I’m talking one of the first training/fighting stance that comes to a Chinese person’s mind when u mention kung fu/combat training in general well known so I rly dunno how it slipped my mind for an entire book

this particular stance is always a lil funny to me bc of the way it’s phrased in Chinese; with the 扎 ��poke”, the intention is to convey a planting & sinking, steadying of the stance that’s just also funny af to me

so imagine sth u find a lil silly & funny fully becoming a flirtatious & romantic code specific to the main characters of the story? hilarity ensued; rip my friend who had to listen to my scream-laughing

Jianzhu, the architect, his name is literally pinyin for building (建筑 jiàn zhù); imagine naming ur kid Building Smith. No wonder he’s such an uptight type A

the name of Jesa’s (Kyoshi’s mom) sky bison, Longyan / 龙眼 (lóng yǎn), while directly translates to “dragon eye”, also happens to be the Chinese word for Longan fruit (which like Lychee, has cloudy, white/clear-ish flesh surrounding a dark, round pit)

Rangi’s name in the Chinese translation of the book is 燃姬 (rán jī), which itself is a basic sound translation, but these characters mean “lady on fire” or “burning lady” this is kinda cute as heck 4 me for some reason????? lil furnace lady Rangi makes me soft

…that brings us to Rangi’s mom Hei-Ran, someone who we know can be cold and calloused in getting sh*t done with some shady days in the academy, & her name may reflect that. her name could be these two characters 黑燃 (hēi rán), which translates to “black burn” or “dark burn”. talk abt obvious characteristic here; nothing more obvious than ur name amirite???

…then again it could also be 黑兰 (hēi lán, “Black Orchid”) which tbh I kinda like better bc it’s more likely to be used as a name; AGAIN, no one wants to name their kid “black burn” it really doesn’t sound as cool as you’d think

SO! After clues from the comments (thank u @taare-writes!) and help I outsourced from TikTok — Hei-Ran’s name actually could be 혜란 in Korean !! also when I put this in the translator I used, the corresponding Mandarin it gave me was 蕙兰 (hùi lán), which is a specific type of orchid (boat orchid I believe?) and SUCH A PRETTY NAME oh my

the term used for the outlaws daofei, is literally just 盗匪 (dào fěi) “thieves/bandits”; this especially tickles my friend (who’s also reading these novels) so I gotta include it for her ;))))

the daofei’s secret gathering spot next to a lake in the mountains, Hujiang, could be 湖江 (hú jiāng) “lake river” or 湖将 (hú jiāng) which if u squint at it could mean “just by the lake”. this is fun bc it’s possible the author just flipped the saying 江湖 (jiāng hú), which while directly translates to “river lake”, has a much broader & meaningful use often in 武侠 (wǔ xiá, if u know u know, but if u don’t you can think of it as samurai or traveling knight but CHINESE) lore: it is used to refer to the world of action, thrills, and adventure walked by these warriors. It’s p cool to me lmao

oh and the Lei Tai the daofei’s fight on? Just 擂台 (lèi tái) “fighting stage”, same thing as the ring in boxing but doesn’t only reference one specific type of fight

Yun’s name is p simple & straight forward, probably just 云 (yún, “cloud”); it’s also an actual last name and I know someone from Highschool with this last name :)))

While Kyoshi obviously has Japanese origins, the kanji corresponding to きょし is 虚子. Japanese kanji have their origins in Chinese characters, and in this case these two kanji can mean “child of the void” (虚 xū “the void / the lack of something” 子 zǐ “child / kid”); pretty fucking metal name if u ask me

Lao Ge, the human alias of the bloodthirsty spirit in Kyoshi’s gang, could just be 老哥 (lǎo gē) “old brother” which is equivalent of just bro

… it’s real name, Tieguai, could be 铁怪 (tiě guài) “iron monster” or 铁拐 (tiě guǎi) “iron crutch”, which both kinda make sense??? given its monstrous tendencies and ancient origins

the green emerald burial sword Tagaka carried with her, jian, literally is just 剑 (jiàn) “sword”. Yes they really went you know what? we gon call it a sword sword

speaking of weapons, the dao broadsword? same thing. 刀 (dāo) literally means “broadsword”. broadsword broadsword hehe

what I find interesting abt this whole weapons naming is that technically when u picture a broadsword, it falls under the umbrella classification of sword (can someone who’s first culture ain’t Chinese confirm this??? thanks); though for Chinese ppl, 剑 (jiàn, “sword”) and 刀 (dāo, “broadsword”) are completely different beasts

basically dao & jian to us r like tigers and wolves when broadswords & swords r like tigers and lions (both in the felidae family)

where this info kinda becomes relevant is bc knives are also translated as 刀 (yeah the one for “broadsword”), and the way ppl know which type of sharp instrument you mean depends on the context. if ur carrying ur dao on ur back (like in the novels) it’s broadsword; if ur looking for a dao to prep dinner with it’s probably a knife unless u really have the urge to chop spinach with a broadsword

the Yellow Scarf’s imprisoned (later freed then dropped) leader, Xu Ping An, has a weirdly ironic name; his name is likely 许平安 (xǔ píng ān), “wish for peace”. 许 (xǔ) can mean “making a wish” & is an actual Chinese last name; 平安 (píng ān) “peace” on the other hand can be & have been used as a name

slight tangent: there’s this Chinese tradition of including undesired characteristics in ur child’s name so they could avoid those things in life I know it’s probably not the tradition mom&dad Xu had in mind when they named him but it did kinda take effect

the design of Govener Te’s mansion complex, the traditional earth kingdom siheyuan design that Rangi mentioned? It’s an actual traditional courtyard’d household design. I’m not the expert on this but if ur interested u can just search siheyuan and read more abt it ! v fascinating

四合院 (sì hé yuàn) roughly translates to “four enclosing yard”, referring to how the structure of this type of housing consists of four sections of single floor housing (each a specific functional space) enclosing an exposed courtyard in the middle. You can still find some of these in Beijing; also these houses go for SO MUCH MONEY on the housing market bc 1. it’s p much a suburb home but in the city 2. CITY LAND 3. homes r just insanely expensive in a city like Beijing. so there’s a running joke that you’d say someone’s well-off by saying their family has a siheyuan

(alright that’s the end of the Rise of Kyoshi!!! Will prolly make another one for the Shadow of Kyoshi; see y’all then)

⌗. hey, hey, how have you been? hopefully you're doing well! sorry that i cant interact much, it's currently exams and i'm really stressed and tired from it hsbdh. how's the funds for thoma and albedo? huehue i only have 54, nothing much changed considering how i couldn't go play genshin that much because school got my time ... well, earlier i got to go back to a hobby of mine which is studying flowers! hehe the most recent one is about a peony. since i feel like there isn't anyone who bothers to study flowers unless they're a florist or smthn because i could just shove a flower in someone's face and they'd thank me because it looked pretty. huehue i just wanna give thoma and zhongli wonderful flowers that they'd really like .... huehue sorry to ramble, will go back to burying myself in schoolwork; have a good evening, lei !

—🌙

my head has been aching for the past week, i genuinely hate— but aside from the academic stress and fuxking maths, i’m alright! i understand how u feel, mostly bc that’s me 24/7 but eh— education amirite? i have 146 pulls i think? thoma and albedo pls hurry up, come home and end my misery 🥲 and oooh flowers! its been awhile since i got to read abt them too. if you learn smth new, please dont hesitate and share them here! i really want to learn more abt flowers and they’re just so fascinating lololol. it’s been so long alr but im suddenly reminded of my event back then. im considering writing smth similiar just for thoma bc im heels in deep for him but eeeeee where is the time to spare? good luck in school and take some breaks! i hope that you’re having a great night too mwah!~

quick trigger warning/content warning for people with emetophobia, i will be mentioning the word v*mit once

hi luce!! (am i allowed to call you this)

OK so um, about my original character: dendro archon!reader reminds me of her is mostly because of her special ability, which i will get to at the end,,,

it started with a thought. what if there was another more accurate way to teleport (because god knows how far a sepcific spot can be sometimes), and then i remembered about ley lines, and how they supposedly have ‘roots’ that run to every corner of Teyvat.

imagine if someone can directly utilize those ley lines to travel instantaneously from one place to another. i haven't decided whether what species she should be; i wanted her to be an adeptus at first, one that didn't need a dendro vision—her ancestors just had a natural talent to teleport using ley lines; but it wouldn't match her occupation as a courier/mail deliverer, who delivers stuff all over Teyvat, not just limited to Liyue.

another reason is because i just really want to see more dendro visions kxjskdnsnnzjsn. the ley lines take the form of plants, no? it’d be a missed opportunity. (besides being an adeptus or human, forest nymph crossed my mind but that seems more out of place,,, idk)

there are limits to this, though—if the ley line runs under buildings or paved roads, she can't go there because the way her powers work is to grow a special flower that can directly connect to the ley lines. another identical one on the final destination will sprout: that's how she’s able to be precise with where she’ll end up. it’s important she does this, or she could get trapped within the ley line flow.

she also can't go to places with ley line disorders— she tried to once, and she ended up in a completely different place and vomitted from terrible nausea.

anyway i think that's all for now! i don't wanna bother you with too much rambling, however i need your honest opinion:

does she sound,,, believable? as in, she doesn't look too out of place in Teyvat’s lore??

- mushroom anon

(for those that don't know, emetophobia = phobia of vomiting)

OOOH after digesting this info and reading it over a bunch, i offer you my very mismatched thoughts because my brain is small LOL

(you're absolutely allowed to call me luce! everyone is hehe :>)

you know, i've always been sort of confused about the properties of ley lines (especially in spiral, all i did was hack n slash with kaeya and hope for the best PFBFBT) but your explanation actually helped me understand the game's lore better, so thanks!! :D

your oc is really interesting!! i can see her being a disciple of the dendro archon themself given that one must have potent power to be able to form life itself and travel through it. but the idea of an adeptus or forest nymph are really cool to explore as well!! the dendro adeptus could be someone who survived because they didn't accumulate any karmic debt that corrupted their soul (since dendro seems to be primarily used for healing and buffs i believe). and a forest nymph isn't far outside the realm of genshin's world given that we have a literal plot of land in a frickin teapot LOL (and we have mystical creatures like the bake-danuki in the game already!)

her occupation as a courier/mail carrier is so frickin smart!! she's famous for her speedy delivery and no one knows how she does it! :D i can also see her selling information and traveling using the ley lines on the down low to avoid a physical footpath for people to follow and ambush her :D

(you're not bothering me at all!! i love hearing about ocs, especially with how creative they tend to be!!)

though my opinion shouldn't matter (because she's a really awesome oc!!), i will still give it because im in love with this concept: she absolutely fits into teyvat's lore!! dendro is a power we have yet to know much about but your ideas are actually sound in genshin's logic and make sense!

thank you for sharing this with me, i really enjoyed reading about your oc!! (do you have any drawings/picrews for her? or perhaps a name? :D)

#sincerely: the stars—☆#from my beloved mushroom anon—☆
