As a former student of biology and an eternal fan of Ghibli, and this hits really deeply. 😁

chemists will be like this is a molecule

The Husky and His White Cat ShiZun, volume TWO 2 二

(The one with the very pale cover)

(English 7Seas version) Notes 1 of 4

Pages 1-132

I am constantly impressed with how well 2Ha has been translated. It has been an absolute joy to re-read, but this time in English.

I don’t expect everyone to know that “zizi” is another word for “older sister,” though, so here are some notes to help you get through the novel if you aren’t already a fluent Chinese-xianxia reader:

(Also, I’m on mobile today, so Vol2 notes will be separated into four 🙄 posts instead of two.)

For all the people out there who are dealing with insane amounts of pain on a regular and frequent basis.

One of my friends fixed her endometriosis by changing her diet according to a Tibetan Healer’s recommendation.

Another fixed her debilitating monthly pain by cutting one ingredient out of her diet on an acupuncturist’s offhand advice.

And another finally went to her normal usual western doc and got some hormonal medication that makes it so she doesn’t pass out from pain anymore.

There is a solution! Find your cure!

whenever i have those brutal searing being-dissolved-from-inside period cramps during school or work i pretend i am a viking warlord who has been stabbed in the abdomen but i killed the assailant so i’m the only one who knows im injured and i have to carry on normally til the end of the battle to keep up my mens morale

So true, so true.

Be sure to read all the comments, too.

whenever people in fandom refer to lan wangji as “lan zhan” there is an instinctive part of me that reacts like “how dare you be so informal, that is ‘lan wangji’ or ‘hanguang-jun’ to you” which is, frankly, absurd

(but also. how dare you be so informal)

So, I’m getting to the very end of the novel 镇魂 Guardian by Priest, and I know that everyone is super worried that Chaos 混沌 is about to envelop the world, but the more I read, the hungrier I get…

What a difference one radical makes.

长庚低声道：“让开。”

Chang Geng doesn’t shout. He lowered his voice and politely warned the people around him (that he was going to stab them if they didn’t) “Move aside.”

Definitely check the Glossary for 江湖 Jianghu. It’s the foundation of an entire genre of story, very nearly of the entire Chinese culture.

Gu Yun is never careless! And he also doesn’t care what you think of him.

Hmmm. Self-deluding people of limited education and even less critical thinking skill. Never seen one before.

姐姐。Big sister. Polite way for teenager to refer to a young lady.

Yao Zhen knows that Gu Yun’s version of the story will get him into trouble. Shen Yi must be glad that at least it’s not him having to fabricate Gu Yun’s story this time!

No French warning. Just a 小心 = “Careful!” as he attacked.

“功夫扎实，主要看自己肯下多大工夫，功夫厉害，主要是战场上生死一线的情况多了，谁教都一样。”

It’s hard to translate. The first and second half of the argument match perfectly, and we’re talking about a topic for which English doesn’t really have the vocabulary.

扎实 = solid, strong.

厉害 = intense, amazing, devastating (in a good way).
