@cherriwre
i hate to say this abt a human artist but it looks soulless in the same way ai art does. that & the missing details mean you could have told me these are all ai and id believe you
(🧵) on
#Baizhu
, his chronic illness and what it says about his character
[aka - why baizhu is a lot more than just a sickly old man and deserves a lot more respect than the fandom gives him.]
@ivanfem_
as someone who doesnt rlly like it,,,,, nothing inherently, i just find it odd personally, the concept doesnt amke sense to me and i dont get the appeal- but idc if people like it, thats their call
@xiaoli_e
yh, it literally just preys on anxiety and paranoia of bad stuff happening... like cmon if ur gonna do interaction bait dont make it guilt trippy :/
one last thing cause ive seen a lot of ppl say this, IM NOT TRYING TO RESTRICT WHAT PEOPLE POST. i am allowed to be frustrated at people posting triggering shit, that doesnt mean im saying all people who post these tweets are evil or that nobody is allowed to do it. If you (1/2)
as a trans man can yall stop using us a gotcha in omegaverse discussions. yes we exist and trans men who go thru pregnancy deserve rep and acceptance but thats a whole different thing than omegaverse mpreg ffs
Guys 😭😭😭
1. I was talking about the origins of it. Idc if you personally want a man to get pregnant
2. Do you guys hate trans people or something?
3. The minute you try to mention misogyny in any context to fujoshis they get actively offended. I thought yaoi was feminist? 😑
@b3autyisempty
im praying so hard that shes the antagonist/villain at the very least... if shes gonna be a coloniser i rlly hope they dont romanticise it
so desperately want to thats your choice but you have to accept that people are gonna be upset w being randomly triggered by some stupid interaction bait. OCD & paranoia are serious issues and ppl who struggle w that deserve to be safe online too lmfao (2/2)
@MessengerF85205
baizhu is the only correct answer im sorry hes literally a world renowned doctor and has brought people back to life before. Love them all but hes by far the best for medicinal treatment lore wise.
@WizTheWitch
@mochii_ri
baizhus eyes are snake eyes, he swapped w changsheng when they made their contract. he has snake eyes and changsheng has human eyes now
@hourfreminet
its alright, this post wasnt intended as a callout, just me expressing my frustration w the trend - i understand you probably didnt think of this and thats completely fair!! your post was only in the ss bc it happened to be the first on my tl today /gen
- taking on immense suffering purely to help others in the future.
He's literally genshin's biggest green flag and if you think otherwise you're wrong <3
@ghoulcap
she cares but she also is grooming them to be child soldiers + outwardly appears uncaring to them 90% of the time iirc which is still a very damaging environment for kids to grow up in,, shes not as bad at the previous knave but shes not rlly a good parent either
@drawninthestars
wdym, how is alhaitham exhausting to be around ?? its pretty clear by now that theyve reached a point in their relationship where they argue less & generally seem to enjoy each others company more
@Notmdi
the graphics are genuinely awful on my tablet (which can run genshin pretty well), i physically cannot put them higher without the game becoming unplayable
@drawninthestars
..why are you commenting on their relationship if you havent played one of the main sources that shows their development? /genq the hkvh we see in the archon quest n even Alhaitham’s sq is massively different to the hkvh in cynos 2nd sq and even parade of providence
1. first and foremost, its important to understand *what* baizhu's illness is and what has caused it. while we don't have a canon name for his ailment, he is stated to experience the following symptoms during flare-ups; chills & hot flashes, breathing problems, intense full-
@kzshii
also why does arle being a better money maker this patch (so far) mean wanderer/baizhu wanters shouldn't get a chance to pull for the char they want what
The point I'm trying to make here is that Baizhu's illness is, in fact, a symbol of his selflessness, desire to help others, rather than a weakness or something to be mocked. He is actively searching for a method to become immortal, despite the fact that this would confine him -
@Auteastic
@chuuchanz
theyre insinuating that white ppl are only making an issue w it on behalf of poc, which in turn implies that its a non issue and the people speaking up are just being white saviors trying to help on an issue poc dont csre abt. Which is simply false
- usually ends in the early death of the one who took on this contract due to the illness it causes. This contract can also only be taken those who are considered pure of heart, not too old or young, human, and are fated to inherit it - so the fact that Baizhu was even able to-
2. these symptoms are largely caused by his contract with Changsheng, an adeptus who takes the form of a snake wound around baizhu's neck. This contract allows Baizhu to heal almost any affliction, at the cost of his own life force, and it's stated that entering this contract -
- to an eternity of suffering, purely for the sake of preventing others from having to suffer like he does, while keeping Changsheng and her power alive. It's likely to become a miserable existence for him but he's willing to do it anyway. He's not just a "sickly old man", he's -
-inherit this contract already shows something about his character.
The nature of this contract also ties into his desire to become immortal, as that would prevent him from dying young and continuing the cycle of how this contract is passed down, saving many lives long term!
@drawninthestars
im struggling to understand your point, kaveh isnt fragile, n its been proven that alhaitham does care deeply for kaveh, but for a long time he had to show it subtley because Kaveh isnt one to accept kindness easily. It js seems like u dont understand their basic characters /gen
@KH43NRIAH
tbh,,, baizhu and tighnari (n by extension collei), its canon that baizhu wants to meet tighnari and i feel like theyd have an interesting friendship (+ collei might benefit from meeting a "good" doctor)
@raidenfamilytwt
they fr looked at scara, one of the best written and most popular characters in game, and went "why is he above the hot muscular ones :/" as if looks are the only reason people enjoy a character..
shes not even tan + multiple native hawaiians have spoken out against her as a rep for their culture, just say you want to pull instead of acting like its the moral thing to do
no but seriously have they even used their brain at all? youre actively telling people to boycott one of the only tan characters of natlan (who actually has a good kit which is a very rare thing for tan characters), which will only-
@drawninthestars
maybe not, but there IS a significant development in how they treat each other - they barely argue once in the new quest, alhaitham literally smiles when hes told to do research with only kaveh, + theyve been compatible for a long time, i still dont get why they wouldnt be?
@MrsGabby_
im confused by the apparent belief that being t4t and therefore specifically looking for a trans partner AS A TRANS PERSON is ??? the same as being a chaser ???? what
@HateMachine99
@MatthiasRider
she never claimed to be raped?? she was groomed and sexually harassed, the things she describes in the comic fit both of those definitions.
@mpyreanstairway
some genshin fans r literally allergic to the concept of saving i swear, they act like its impossible for f2p players to get any amount of pulls its so annoying .. like do yall realise f2p players arent going around all doing no wish challenges 😭?? some of us have self restraint
@nyaamari
i love alhaitham but i prefer scara over him because his lore is so interestinf and expansive,, wrio and alhaitham ***in comparison*** are a little boring in my eyes
@heyitspegkat
....lyney literally calls him "my younger brother" in his voiceline abt freminet. what. thats the most basic place you can look for lore between 2 chars.
@navvyia
personally while i love tighnari it feels especially weird that the pale sumeru standard is one of the best dendro chars + the best standard character currently while the dark one is one of the worst
@LuckyyLuka
me too,,, i dont even have ocd but having a million posts on my tl threatening that all my favs r gonna die over a comment is insanely stressful
@drawninthestars
im not trying to say you have to enjoy them, i truthfully dont give a shit /lh. im just still a little confused where you get the idea that they arent canonically compatible when they are one of the most implied to be canon ships in game
@kzscryaoi
nah fr and tbh the only reason chasca has been getting more hate lately is because of that chasca account trying to claim shes better designed than scara ... honest to god if an olorun fan did the same theyd get jumped too bc its simply false
@mihkomehmew
bs omfg 😭😭 as if a lot of characters dont have their own unique aesthetic... nahida literally has computer motifs why is that acceptable but not pixel art ESP when its a cultural reference
@drawninthestars
you still havent given me a good explanation for why you think they arent a good match, only "well alhaitham is too aggravating for poor fragile kaveh"
