Can Ye Zun eat my furniture and puke it up later? Asking for a friend.

Moving requires packing, which is terrible. Don't move if you can help it, kids. Even if your life may fit into a trailer and stuffedish car.

I also don't deal well with leaving. Part of it is that I'm terrible at keeping in touch with people outside of my immediate environment.

This December will likely be spent first writing stressfic, which may or may not be Yuletide-related (I'm taking my prompts file and outlines with me), then gorging on Yulefic. Let's see what this flavor of stressfic looks like, from outside and inside. Perhaps, come author reveals, the fandom_stocking stockings will have all been posted, and I can start filling them?

In more positive/less gloomy news, I've discovered I like nekomimi. (Example.) This leads to a very cracky fic idea: all Dixingians have cat ears. Zhao Yunlan, cat person, likes petting Shen Wei's cat ears, which Shen Wei also likes. At some point, Zhao Yunlan pets Ye Zun's cat ears, and this is the first time ever anyone has been nice to Ye Zun, so he abandons his world domination plans just a little bit so that Zhao Yunlan can continue petting his ears. This is probably some subconscious reaction to stress: I just want a cat(person) to pet, and I also want to be petted. Also indicative of my stress fantasies' shapes: "And then they all lived happily ever after, very cuddlily."

I ... think this must be at least my sixth move. /o\

Ye Zun could profit from someone petting him even without cat ears.
He would! I am reasonably sure both he and his brother have a huge praise kink, and Ye Zun hasn't really encountered people being nice to him. No-one's ever asked why he's doing what he's doing, etc. (Given that line, I am pretty sure he and Shen Wei have a similar "intrinsic" personality, Shen Wei was merely given an okay youth and a Kunlun who was interested in him as a person whereas Ye Zun was emotionally and physically abused by the original rebel leader, and never had anyone be interested in him for himself, never mind be nice to him.) A better knowledge of who Ye Zun was, and Zhao Yunlan might've been able to stop him way back in the park at the midway point of the series. Hm, perhaps Zhao Yunlan can get idk a vision from the future that tells him which button to press?

Sixth move? Wow, I don't envy you. Best wishes to have everything done quickly and without complications. :)

That is a fantastic plot-bunny. And very plausible. After all Zhao Yunlan did get visions after touching the Hallows. They were about the future, but who says he couldn’t have visions about the past. And now I really want someone to write that fic. :)

To be fair, two of those were when I was young enough it was my parents moving. I have started packing, and perhaps I can clean up more efficiently now? My mats need to be washed. /o\

I will redeem Ye Zun one way or another, and this is one contender for making him reconsider his views! Another is praise kink + sex pollen.
