Discover and read the best of Twitter Threads about #CQL

Why do a lot of translations/fanfics keep saying 'this one'? Never seen that in English subs/ translations in my life - is it something the ER translation does? What’s the chinese equivalent? I get 'this disciple' / ‘this gentleman’ 这名弟子/ 这位公子or another noun. I’m confused

@3ysz_ @fanyiyi33 @quigonejinn @yesterday_ying whoever else speaks Chinese

@soursoppi ?

what my #CQL stan mother thinks of different ships from #TheUntamed - a thread

#wangxian

1st time: "Why do these two keep staring at each other? Do they have a bromance? Why don't they tell each other?"

Now: "It's very hard to even find a really good friend, if you can find a 知己 zhiji (soulmate) like LWJ and WWX, does it matter if they are same gender?"

#xiyao

Insists it's canon and that they're madly in love. Pointed out the hand-touch scene at CR, the "er-ge, die together with me" scene at Guanyin Temple. "A-yao should just be good, don't do evil, elope with his Xichen and be happy"

Final Verdict: "LXC too good for ah yao"

Apparently people like NMJ's anaconda more Xiyao + Britney lol.... noted

I have a lot of emotions about my #CQL / #TheUntamed stan mother - a thread

First of all, she's a 60 something, chinese, conservative, boomer lady. Growing up, she was very anti-queer. She still doesn't know about me. I don't tell her. She's a lot like Madam Yu (and unfortunately I turned out somewhat like Jiang Cheng), so you can imagine my childhood.

I remember having an argument about whether being gay was inherent or a choice with her and the shouting match that ensued. She can tolerate them as a broad concept of "these are people who exist elsewhere" but in her own culture, community or family, that would be unacceptable.

Jin Guangyao X Britney Spears - Oops I Did It Again

idea by @lulugimos

#cql #chenqingling #陈情令 #theuntamed #mdzs #modaozushi #魔道祖师 #jinguangyao #mengyao #lanxichen #niemingjue #xiyao #nieyao #nielan #3zun

Did you like the timing of that slap? lol

Also, I swear I muted the audio on the "er-ge, die with me" clip, but I keep hearing JGY say it. Checked the original audio, turned out there was a background hiss at the exact moment he says the word 'si' (die).

I also added a little candy pink tint bc why not

Jin Guangyao X TAEMIN (태민) – Criminal

requested by
@psychicwaffles

made this on hard mode: no subtitles in any clips

#cql #chenqingling #陈情令 #theuntamed #mdzs #modaozushi #魔道祖师 #jinguangyao #mengyao #lanxichen #niemingjue #xiyao #nieyao #nielan #3zun #taemin #태민

For extra pain here's the lyrics to the chorus:

So elegant, a criminal who hurts me
It’s okay, you soothe me just to torture me again
Ooh I’m on a leash called you
It’s painful as much as I can’t breathe but also magnificent

So elegant, a criminal who destroys me
Not okay, I try and shake my head
Ooh but I’m only getting dragged in more deeply
The moment I fall for you, is the end of my innocence

#cql stan mum (her chinese better) also told me the origins of Hanguang-jun

A gentleman has no quarrel (君子无争), radiance has no form (含光无形), sit and forget with no heart (坐忘无心).

apparently metaphor for 'a calm heart with no contention renders attackers powerless'?

also 无心 has taoist connotations and the whole thing is linked to a confucian virtue of benevolence (仁)??

this is beyond my understanding of english let alone chinese

@fanyiyi33 @3ysz_ any idea? lol

also paging @yesterday_ying

My Chinese #cql stan mum texted me today about where #LanSizhui's name is from - a saying that goes 思君不可追, 念君何时归.

Means roughly, thinking (思) of a gentleman/lord (君) but cannot pursue/chase/follow (追), missing (念) but (not knowing) when (何时) will return (归).

@fanyiyi33

@3ysz_

of interest to you perhaps, hope I didn't butcher that

Someone explain why it’s called the Stygian Tiger Seal when 1. Westerners know what Yin is (as in yin and yang) 2. Stygian (as in River Styx) is from Greek mythology, makes no sense in this context

Just call it the Yin Tiger Seal (plus #CQL/#TheUntamed has Yin Iron too)

#mdzs

Do they think westerners don’t know what Yin is the same way the Netflix subs assume all non-Chinese people can’t tell relationships between people like shijie (sister) so they write the person’s name instead???

Literally it’s 阴虎符 YIN HU FU. Yes THAT YIN. surely most non chinese people can understand YIN

FYI: Sometimes I see in fic people have characters refer to fathers as 爸爸 baba - that is a modern development - if it’s #CQL / #theuntamed / #mdzs / #modaozushi period era it’s 爹 die or 父亲 fu qin

source: chinese kid who grew up watching this stuff. my mother confirmed too

If they’re little kids it can be 爹爹 die die or A-die and 爹/父亲 die/fu qin more for adults. Fu qin is also a bit more formal than die

Eg. LXC refers to their father as 父亲fu qin to LWJ. JZX refers to JGS as 爹 die but JGY uses fu qin. Child JC is seen with JFM who refers to himself as A-Die. At dinner YZY snaps and says “Ask your father (die).”

So in LSZ kid fics: probably formal in company, die in private.

Can y'all play this for my #CQL / #TheUntamed /#MDZS / #MoDaoZuShi + Venom mashup AU thank you :')

1. It’s a CQL timeline but instead of a flute CQ is a symbiote that behaves largely the same way Venom does! Except it looks more smokey and wispy like in the show. It is also a sassy Bitch.

2. Ships will be largely following canon but otherwise gen. WWX is our Eddie Brock so he is the main character

I’m doing a #CQL #TheUntamed rewatch and I’m going to do a #wujicount per episode!

Sometimes they run close to each other. I’m counting it as separate if it restarts and is a new instrument.

#CQL #theuntamed cultivators and their medical specialties based on the hospitals I work at:

LXC: neurosurgery (skilled but so sweet). LWJ: neuro consultant (all eccentric, where I am). LSZ+LJY: his med students. LQR: stroke specialist

NMJ: cardiac surgery (bc knife). NHS: cardiology (like big bro, but no stomach for surgery).

JZX: plastic surgeon (e.g. cranofacial/cleft lip+palate repairs). JL: med student (doing rotation with WWX, JC is salty). JGY: pharmacist (knows many ways to kill you and make it look like an accident).

update on my #cql stan mum: I taught her fandom’s use of the term “qi deviate”. Today she texts me saying her friend posted some pro-Trump stuff in a group chat. According to her she promptly qi deviated and then replied with a huge clapback. I’m -

I replied with “Donald Trump = Wen Ruohan” and that her friend has “走火入魔” (gone the demonic way) already. She laughed and said 非常好 (very good).

Also sent her several pictures of soft!LWJ saying “get you a man who looks at you like this” and she replied with the Koi Tower picture. I told her he raised my already high standards for men. This is her response:
