ao3 is down, lemme know if i need to make a discord server to host all my fics the alternative is a mailing list, as long as everyone agrees they don’t only use it for personal consumption, don’t feed it to AI, and not spread it HAHA

apparently i've forgotten to scream about this: has anybody realized that in my oubing fics, ao bing refers to nezha as 'love' and nezha refers to ao bing as 'beloved' because this is so very dear to me

add (1) more text' and right when i was pulling my hair out trying to decide which text i should use, i kid you not, that book fell off my desk and opened to the nezha page and i was like well fuck the lotus prince has spoken i guess (long story short yes i did end up putting nezha into my thesis)

also funny story: in my research there's a specific writer who wrote a little scene of nezha and I wasn't planning to add this work in bc I didn't have time left but in the FINAL draft a week before I was supposed to submit my defence copy my supervisor went 'i think it would be good if you could

wouldn't be an 'oomph'/punch to the gut feeling to it. practical tip: you have to start reading your own stories obsessively and think about your own writing habits (heaven knows how many times i reread dtass/tff lol) and what effect u want to have that was/was not brought across. hope this helps 🫶

tldr there really isn't a one-size-fits-all/formulaic way of constructing narratives, it gets easier when you get used to your own writing style + think through what you're trying to express as well as the themes/titles/metaphors/symbols you're going to use in the specific story, otherwise there

investiture. the turning back of time reverses the exit wound, pulls the bullet out of the body. hence huagai disappears, bing-er disappears, ao bing comes back. - things literally 'go back to how it was'/'how it was supposed to be'.

✨ | mostly ia @devilrin.bsky.social · 11/04/2025
entrance wound, disappears from the narrative entirely, yet he needs to come back at the end of the story. - and now we 'fold' time back. huagai brings the reader through the 'wound' and shows you nezha's hurt, but when ao bing comes back at the last chapter, he reverses time and dials it back to
100
✨ | mostly ia @devilrin.bsky.social · 11/04/2025
- but the wound can't heal when the exit wound is huagai: huagai who is the exit wound himself, he does not remember the entrance wound/in vuong's words 'what did i break off from to end up here? how do i go back?' - so we bring in the second perspective: ao bing. ao bing whose death is the
100
✨ | mostly ia @devilrin.bsky.social · 11/04/2025
- to recap we have the 'wound' from entrance to exit -> thus begins the journey of healing, which should happen over the course of the narrative if time is moving in a linear fashion.
100
✨ | mostly ia @devilrin.bsky.social · 11/04/2025
- so now you have two anchorpoints: the point at which the entrance wound heals, and the point at which the exit wound heals. this corresponds to [spoilers ahead] ao bing dying in Investiture (entrance) and huagai coming back which opens another hole in the 'body' (narrative/nezha's pov).
100
✨ | mostly ia @devilrin.bsky.social · 11/04/2025
- but bc of his soulmatism with ao bing i bring in the second layer as a 'wound'. - walk with me: an exit wound implies the existence of an entrance wound: it tears *through* the body as a passage. but because of the existence of 2 wounds (entrance and exit), both wounds heal at different times.
100
✨ | mostly ia @devilrin.bsky.social · 11/04/2025
standard/baseline to base changes off of: i construct what i call anchorpoints in my head: at a certain point in time, there is a baseline. here we bring in perspective: who experiences this baseline? - for exit wound it's nezha.

linear time so i always turn to relative/experienced time, and to do that you have to focus on how the body (sensation/feeling/emotion) interacts with time and vice versa. but it's hard bc all of these things are rly abstract + hard to render into writing so for me i like to give myself a definitive

✨ | mostly ia @devilrin.bsky.social · 11/04/2025
things are the things that i work with the most, and often for me i prioritize perspective over time but it's more or less intertwined (perspective influences the experience of time and vice versa) - time itself is a very tricky thing bc linear time is BORING. i don't like reading things written in

#processyaps #exit ppl have been asking me about how i construct narratives. trust me sometimes m as mindfucked as everyone else is but: - using exit wound as an example to explain this: - i always think of my stories as layered. mostly layered in terms of perspective (pov) and time. these two
