Yeah, I reckon the dragons are pretty chill about stuff like that. But li Ming and Ao shun are forever.

Li Ming x Ao Shun with 66? Because like you I also cant stop thinking about them.

“Do not tickle me.” Ao Shun sleepily muttered into his pillow (black silk, obviously). Li Ming stretched and groaned and curled up against his side, reaching for him again and sliding his fingers over Ao Shun’s back to wrap an arm loosely around his hips, pressing his face to the dark hair spilling across the covers.

“That wasn’t the intention.” Li Ming replied, nestling against him, eyes barely half open, intending on allowing himself to slip back to sleep for half an hour more if he could. Maybe an hour, there was nothing too pressing to deal with, and he’d showered before going to bed.

He’d returned late, had a long and very hot shower to work out the aches of travelling, and crawled into the bed that Ao Shun was already occupying, reading underneath the light of a solitary lamp.

He’d been too tired for much more than crawling under the covers on the other side of the bed, his side of the bed if they were in the same world (he always slept closest to the door, a constant protector, even at night), and had been asleep before Ao Shun had even wished him goodnight, or hello for that matter.

“Good morning.” Ao Shun said, now that he was a little more awake, he rubbed sleep out of his eyes and shifted to hold Li Ming and he kissed the top of his hair. “Did you sleep well?”

“Better than I have in weeks.” It was always the same response. He always slept better when he knew that his partner was less than an arms reach away.

The finest beds, thick and plush mattresses of feathers, large enough to fit a half dozen people in it and probably a few pets as well, and they always ended up pressed against each other. Curled around one another, bodies touching, even when it was a hot night, they still would sleep close, fingers brushing when the heat became too much to tolerate. Li Ming may run cold, but Ao Shun ran hot and it quickly became uncomfortable for Li Ming to be wrapped up in what felt like a furnace to him.

Ao Shun smiled. “Good, you were exhausted last night, you work too hard mon etoile.” Li Ming tilted his face up to smile at him with sleep hazed eyes. “Oh… you forgot to wash your eyeliner off. Hold still, I need a picture of this.” Li Ming huffed and rolled away from him, pulling the covers up over his head.

“I am going back to sleep.”

“Lí…” Ao Shun softly said. “My raccoon.” Li Ming sat up and glared at him.

“We are not making this a thing.” He swung his legs over the edge of the bed and grabbed his dressing gown as he got up and padded toward the bathroom on warmed tile floors. “I am not a raccoon, I was just tired.”

“I know you were, love. Come back to bed and there will be no more mention of your resemblance to adorable little creatures.”

“I am taller than you.”

“Barely-there-resemblance. Come back to bed, please.” Li Ming sighed.

“Just because you asked me nicely.” 

Lí means raccoon, which is exactly what I needed to find out today and made me do the happy hand flappies

We need to be aware of this more

talk about yemen. talk about the 63,000 yemeni children that died of preventable causes. talk about how the UN dubbed it “ the world’s largest humanitarian crisis ”. talk about US’ major role in backing Saudi Arabia’s bombing. talk! talk! talk! this needs to get the deserved and much needed attention.

I’m finally able to get life-changing help, and I can’t afford it. Please help spread this. Please help me work towards recovery instead of getting irreparably worse.

Hi, my name is Casper! Here’s some pictures of me to prove I am a real person. TL;DR I am really sick, here’s my donation fund

I just got laid off due to covid 19- I was working full time even though my job was bad for my condition. I’m a chronically ill, disabled, and mentally ill trans and nonbinary person (ehlers danlos syndrome, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, narcolepsy, hypermobility, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic pain syndrome, chronic costochondritis, gastroparesis, endometriosis, PTSD, major depression, anxiety, and much more). I finally moved out of my small town, which only supplied healthcare via deeply transphobic and religious sources. 

Since doing so I have finally had access to care. I started therapy and got my chronic illnesses accurately diagnosed. I have had these illnesses mostly since birth, but they became unmanageable 6 years ago and I have been suffering with no known cure or diagnosis since. These illnesses almost made me drop out of school and have already impacted my career. 

Now I finally have treatment open to me, and it could change my life. Please help me. My illnesses are actively getting worse and threatening to prevent me from doing the only things I care about. I have not been bedridden like this since before I figured out how to manage my symptoms, and I have never been in this much constant pain. 

My shitty insurance will not cover anything until I pay $1000 for my deductible per treatment type. I need 3 types (listed below). After I do that, they’ll cover 80% of the expenses and I can hopefully handle it then. Unemployment will be enough to cover my rent and food, luckily, but not much else. State healthcare would not help me more than my current healthcare. I am applying for disability now that I have a diagnosis but it is a lengthy process. 

1. My insurance WAS covering therapy but surprise! They changed their minds, didn’t tell me until this week, and now I’m $850 in debt to my therapist and I’ll have to stop therapy cold turkey right when I need it most. Once I pay back the $850 debt + $150 to hit the deductible, I can continue therapy. That’s hoping I don’t accrue a ton of interest before that happens and become hopelessly in debt. 

2. My physical therapy to help me stop dislocating my joints constantly and being in so much pain I can’t sleep, walk, or draw was slated to start April 15th (today) and continue weekly for 7 weeks. If I can pay $1000 of visits, I hopefully can manage to pay the co-pay after insurance kicks in. 

3. And finally, I desperately need a psychiatrist. Psychiatrists are the only kind of doctor that can give me the kind of medication that will help the majority of my physical illnesses - not just my mental illnesses. My nerves bombard my brain with pain signals and the only way to begin to help me is to quiet those signals. Again, I’ll need to pay $1000 to that doctor as well before my benefits kick in. 

This isn’t even counting what I’ll be needing to pay for my medications and mobility aids (I need splints to stop my joints from dislocating, but they are not cheap). I am going to have to put those things on hold, along with a terrible tooth infection that I have been trying to save up to fix for 3 years now. 

GoFundMe’s 3% fee tacks on about $90 assuming I somehow manage to raise this money 

.https://www.gofundme.com/f/ehlers-danlos-syndrome-treatment-for-casper

That brings me to a minimum of $3,090 to get into the doctor’s office.

Please help spread this. I know everyone is in a tough spot right now, and I deeply appreciate it. My life was just about to finally get better when this came crashing down on me. 

Here’s some of my art. Its the only thing I have to offer the world most days. I want to continue living and making my work. Please help. 

Aww, very cute. Yeah, I agree about Kai being somewhat of a hopeless romantic.

Hiya, what do you reckon for 8 of the otp questions? Thanks

I think Irene probably would prefer if people didn't know that Kai was her student because they may judge her so they say that they met through work which is correct anyway.

Kai probably likes to describe Irene exactly as they met, right down to the gravel in her hair, followed by that he knew she was the one as soon as he saw her argue with Bradamant because he likes that fiery side about her.

Irene tells it very factually and calls him an idiot but kisses him anyway

Irene discussing this with coppelia: and then he did not let go for some time/ utterly out of order/ I know! So unreasonable.

Irene: W..why are you squeezing me with your body?

Kai: It’s called a hug, Irene. I’m hugging you.

anyone please ask your crush out like this

To people who are desperately asking for fundz/donations on tumblr.

USE THESE REDDIT SUBS INSTEAD PLEASE FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!!!!!!!!

Hate Reddit if you want, but using these subs are your best chance. People gather in these subs because they have charity to spare:

/r/Assistance /r/legaladvice /r/RandomKindness /r/Charity /r/care /r/Random_Acts_Of_Pizza /r/Food_Pantry https://www.reddit.com/r/RandomActsOfPetFood/ https://www.reddit.com/r/RandomActsOfChristmas/ https://www.reddit.com/r/almosthomeless/ https://www.reddit.com/r/homeless

/r/freelance  /r/povertyfinance /r/thrifty /r/borrow /r/gofundme

/r/depression /r/familysupport /r/transitions 

I never see anyone actually getting any significant donations on tumblr and to be honest, tumblr is the worst place to ask for assistance. Use it as your last resort, it frustrates me to no end seeing people begging for help, reblogging the same post over and over, the same types of posts over and over, to no avail, when people are waiting to help you on a different part of the web  GO TO WHERE THE HELP IS. IF YOU WANT DIRECT ACTION TO WORK STOP WITH TUMBLR AND USE REDDIT.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF SATAN REBLOG THIS SO WE CAN START REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF DONATION POSTS THAT GET STUCK FLOATING AROUND THIS WEBSITE

Hey if you’re schizophrenic/psychotic I just want you to know that you’re a wonderful person and that you deserve so much better than the demonization, marginalization and stigmatization you face in this society.
