Food updates: twice cooked fish was actually c. 4 portions, not the advertised two. Salmon bibimbap ongoing – I'll run out of salmon after tomorrow's lunch. I have a whole bunch of beansprouts to consume. I'll make some lo mein, subbing the beef with ground deer. I'm spending Easter alone for the first time. I guess I'll make something out of the ground lamb I have at home, eat dou sha bao and chocolate, and open some new tea packages to drink tea from my gaiwan. Oh, and watch The Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty – I've watched the first two eps on viki, and I've quite enjoyed them! The foodie guy, Tang Runqing (...I forget his birth name, oops) is a bit annoying, but hey, he has nice enough interplay with Sui Zhou, who is excellent.

In casefic news, the writing background music has been 音阙诗听, in variation between Want You by My Side (which comes across as incredibly femslashy due to two female singers + my inability to spot any gendering in the lyrics), Shuangjiang/Frost Descends and Qingming. As a side note, the singer of the latter is hot. She is welcome to miraculously appear in my house and sing for me whenever she wants. (Further side notes: the trumpet-like thing is called a suona 唢呐.) The fic itself will be 7 chapters/28k long; I'm currently on chapter 6. *gazes upwards* ...yes, the fic involves people eating. ~~Whether it involves people being eaten is a spoiler.~~ ~~I have such an urge to make up false spoilers now...~~
