Buying Emperor's Smile (from Mo Dao Zu Shi) in the Gusu district of Suzhou, Jiangsu province. OP bought a jar of both 12% and 38%, and according to others who also bought it, it is a sour fruity wine, and because of the low alcohol content, the flavour of the baijiu is overpowered by the fruit flavour.

The shop is on Pingjiang Road (平江路), a historic district in Gusu. The street also has many other shops selling Emperor's Smile. Another street with shops selling Emperor's Smile is Shantang Street (山塘街), also in Gusu.

[eng by me]

One of the other shops (?) on Pingjiang Road offers both white and black jars

Copied from my reblog: I hear that there's a shop on Shantang Street that sells a 52% ABV Emperor's Smile and is a spicy baijiu, which would be far more accurate to the type of wine Wei Wuxian would have been drinking.

#douyin #mdzs #魔道祖师 #mo dao zu shi #apparently one shop on shantang street sells a 52% emperor's smile #/that/ i feel would be more to wwx's taste lmao #also emperor's smile is supposed to be a baijiu #clearly shop owners are just naming one of their wines emperor's smile to get more sales #most people buying it are book fans who just want the jar anyways lmao #it's a win-win

Every time Tubbo jokes about fitpac infront of Fit and Pac, Fit gives off this energy of squeezing tubbo like a squeaky toy as he desperately tells Tubbo to shut up.

#qsmp #morning crew posting #Tubbo always has this sly smile on his face like he put his hand in the cookie jar #And Pac always just stares or goes nooooooooo

Binah likes those star-shaped hard candies. not because they taste particularly good- they're mostly sugar, anyways- but because you always seem so delighted when you give one to her. your voice singing "Binah, look! It's a little star!" is enough for her to face any day, no matter how deep the well and how loud the voices.

#project moon #lobotomy corporation #library of ruina #binah #binah lobcorp #binah library of ruina #she begins to appreciate items shaped like stars #if you get her a jar of the candy she'll place it right next to the jar of paper stars you made for her #which she's also beginning to make on her own time #it soothes everything #occasionally she'll drop a little star in your hands and just watch you smile happily

These were made experimenting in CSP for the first time. Lawlight bullshit. Per usual.

#light yagami #death note #l lawliet #lawlight #death note fanart #my art #lights kind of creepy wobbly smile here is intentional #his smile when he lets his guard down is much less than perfect #I think others told him he smiled too wide and in an unusual way and that his laugh was too loud and jarring #and so all of the smiles we see are practiced #except like his insane laughing in the finale obviously #he laughs like that when hes told a joke at five years old and gets stared at by his entire 1st grade student body

📩 Random simblr CAS prompt of the day: Pick your favorite sim couple (if you don’t have a couple, your favorite sim is fine) what would they wear for a date?

theo's pick for what they'd wear when grabbing coffee together in the gap between his lectures

matthias's pick for what they'd wear on a walk after lavishing theo with good food and wine all evening

#posting this right after finishing editing it like yeah get this out of my drafts NEOWWWWWW #river dipping #asks #anonymous #ts4 #theodore doe #matthias evanoff #a burning house to live in #🦇#ts4 edit #see matthias wants a date that stretches on and on until they wind up back at his place rolling around in bed together #meanwhile theo's like. hm... i think i might be able to fit you in my schedule next wednesday at two pm for coffee. see you then. bye.#it's rough out there for a guy who just wants to be theo's dog that follows him around everywhere and lays at his feet </3 #also by pick i mean those are the clothes they'd pick for each other based on personal preference too #theo in particular likes when the hickeys he's left on matthias are visible and when matthias has his forearms exposed #matthias just loves everything theo wears really... but turtlenecks and tailored suits will have him on his knees quick #the more theo covers up the more matthias wants to strip him naked... which like okay sexy yeah but also.#direct correlation between theo hiding from himself and his desires and matthias dragging all of it out into the open :)#anyway. that coat over theo's shoulders and that button-up slipping off theo's frame both belong to matthias <3 #also it's so jarring to throw a random pose on mattodore and then boom. theo's smiling. he does NAWT do that much at all #in the story version of echthroi! so jot that down ☝️ but sim him can go ahead and smile and have a good time. i'll allow it.#anywayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy thank you anon <3 MWAH #and now let me reply to these other messages from days ago... i suck so bad sorry my avpd is a curse </333

listen. I don't just love father brown because I first saw it while ill with the flu or because it's consistently kind to the outcast in a way that has reviewers calling it Too Woke, obviously a vote in its favour. or because the recurring thief character is very pretty to watch. though those are significant parts of it.

I love it because after eight seasons father brown sits down with the village drunk (a munitions expert in the war, has a soft spot for the parish secretary, name of harold or blind harry) to find out why he gave a murder suspect a false alibi and harry explains to him, calm as you like, that seeing the life leave someone's eyes changes a person, that it's what he reckons brought father brown to his faith, that it's what drove him to drink, and he didn't see that shadow in the guy the police are chasing this time. and father brown, rather than justifying or correcting or dodging or doubting him, says he knows how unjust the situation is. that he got something good out of the horrors of the war. that harry really didn't.

it is not a perfect show and yes I have problems with it but gosh, this is a character who's largely used for comedic beats, albeit kindly, and a scene like this isn't out of place at all but it still takes my breath away. we could've been left with this as subtext, y'know? I hadn't even put together that his alcoholism must have been trauma. but instead harry tells us this directly, tells us it's about guilt, that that's something he shares with father brown, who is competent and so often cheerful and I can't even imagine when he was younger, and it's a moment of such unexpected humanity and respect. and it's such a strange thing to see these characters side by side like that.

the scene ends with father brown calling harry a good man, and harry denying it ("they was only young lads" "so were we, harold. so were we.") and the two them sharing a drink as father brown gets a bit watery-eyed and I'm crying too over my nice cosy 'this is a concerning number of murders for a sleepy english village' show and just. hi. what. ow.

I also haven't recovered from the episode that turned into a heist halfway through but frankly I'm only mentioning that because I don't know how to wrap up a post like this. (it was good though. there were two separate honeypots, three if you count the impromptu replacement, one character terrible at grifting and one unexpectedly great at it, and, somehow, a con within a con. it was really very fun. get a show that can do both, I guess?)

#back on my bullshit (unrepentant)#I was raised so protestant I retain a deep suspicion of priests so this remains very startling to me #something something father brown handshake emoji iroh #love where they are now no clue how they got there but it's always kind of a shock to be reminded there was blood along the way #also like. the kindness. the tea. the fondness for life's small pleasures.#pretending to be harmless and friendly and also BEING harmless and friendly to the core.#this is an association I had not made before so if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go hide my face in a pillow about it #father brown #falderal speaks #love a show that waits until you're comfy and then smacks you with a very human reminder of the horrors of war #love a character with. moral injury. listen shush I'm very predictable I just hadn't put together that it was father frikking brown too #silly little (not little) guy who elbows his way into situations by smiling pleasantly at people and who likes cake and jazz music #it's not like I forget he has depth I just. forget that the story GOES there #and so respectfully. harold who is usually slightly comic relief getting a serious moment that explains a lot and doesn't even feel jarring #I'm stopping here but like. good show‚ show. I did in fact have unexpected emotions about it.

14/FEB/20XX

passing around to everyone his hand-made valentine's cards and heart-decorated goodie bags, papyrus hesitated almost unnoticeably while giving one to mettaton.

he also gave him a note, but i didn't ask what it said.

alphys and undyne came over earlier to pass around their stuff, but left pretty soon to go. y'know. have a valentine's date.

"Hey, Mom. Look!"

frisk raises one of those chalky heart candies. it reads, "GOAT".

"What a coincidence!"

"...Though, were those not supposed to contain compliments?"

"sounds like you 𝗮𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮 give your mom a slang lesson, kid."

flowey shot me a dirty look over the pun.

papyrus wasn't paying attention for once - too busy talking with mettaton.

"Calling someone 'the goat' is a compliment."

"What does it mean?"

"It's like saying someone is the greatest, basically."

"Then I think you are 'the goat', my child!"

not sure what the expression meant, but flowey definitely had... 𝙖 look on his face. somewhere between cringing and the general annoyance he's had for all of today increasing. frisk laughed a little and gave tori a hug.

irritated by the entire essence of valentine's day apparently, flowey's rage was sated mildly with candy.

——

mettaton whispered something to my brother, and then papyrus spat some random excuse to leave; jumping out one of the windows.

at least he opened it this time. (tori's been working with him on the breaking-windows thing.)

shortly after, mettaton quietly got up and left to go find him.

——

tori gave me a quiet smile.

i glanced at the time.

giving her a small nod, she rose from the couch.

"There is something I must do. I will be back later tonight. Please be good for Grillby."

grillby nodded like he agreed.

toriel stops by her room before leaving.

frisk and flowey argue about something, but i'm not paying much attention.

about thirty minutes go by.

i rise from my seat with a yawn.

"welp. it's gettin' late, and i'm having a 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁 time keeping my sockets open. gonna make my way home before i crash on the couch here again. seeya, kiddos."

"you too, grillbs."

i fist bump with the remaining folks with fists to bump, and step out toriel's front door into my room.

"It's HEART to believe how much I love puns!" read the shirt i swapped my current one for. i grab the card and chocolate from the bottom drawer of my dresser.

a pretty magenta-ish sweater with a ribbon at the neck; heart shapes exposing the shoulders, and a light pink pleated skirt.

that's what the old lady waiting in my living room was wearing.

"Oh! It is the shirt I got you!"

"it's fitting for the occasion."

"And fitting you well, it seems."

i hand her the card and chocolate. i'm thankful that she laughs at the cheesy jokes i'd scribbled in there, but i can't shake my nerves still.

tori presents a small cake with a heart on top and a plastic rose.

"you're probably right to be giving me a fake one."

"I feared that a real one might not last long in your hands..."

as planned, me and her went to a small theme park with a few rides; just like the one we went to in september. this time though - the entire place was decorated in hearts and valentine's-ey imagery.

an employee stopped us at the entrance.

"Here's your couple discount bands! Today only."

toriel nodded and accepted the bracelets with a smile. she quietly put on on my wrist, and the other on hers.

𝘴𝘩𝘦'𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘸𝘦'𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦'𝘳𝘦 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴.

.....

but, she didn't. she only kept my hand warm in hers, squeezing it gently.

i didn't say anything either.

maybe she looked at me to see if i would, but i couldn't do a thing but move my gaze anywhere else.

maybe that was the wrong decision.

maybe it was stupid that i was excited about it.

maybe it's stupid that my soul is still beating so much thinking about it.

but damn am i one
