😻YOONGI HAS A CAT!!!!!😻
On December 28th, Yoongi did a livestream where he introduced his cat 설탕 (Seol-tang)--which means "sugar". He'd adopted him from a litter of kittens a friend's cat had 3 yrs ago. Originally, he wanted to adopt two (caling one Seol and the other one Tang), but ended up with just one. Per Yoongi, Tang (as he called him throughout the livestream) is v. cuddly, sweet, and vocal. He's also a biscuit-making machine, has figured out how to open doors, and loves showing his belleh (which is NOT a trap!) Tang is chill enough that Yoongi can trim his nails w/o any incidents. Right now, he weighs 6.4 kg.
FTR, Yoongi had posted some pics (three whole years ago) that showed Tang, so him having a pet kitty was something ARMYs had been aware of. Now it's confirmed and everyone's DELIGHTED AF abt Tang, hehehe.
As expected, everyone (including myself) lost the gorram minds, hahahah. ArtMys showed up in droves too! Here are some of my fave fanarts of Yoongi and Tang. :DDDDD
[NB: the NEXT DAY, Hobi did a live where he revealed he's got TWO CATS (both rescues.) However, he's yet to show them and that's A-OK. BangCat Sonyeandan, hahah.]

Summary: When his army is defeated at the border, Wei Ying - a former General of Dazhi - is taken as a prize by the victor nation Beicui. He's resigned to a life of hard labor and an early death when a chance encounter alters his fate - he ends up in the manor of Prince Qing as a concubine instead.
Wanting nothing to do with the fights of an inner courtyard, he takes pains to avoid the attention of the prince's legal wife and the other concubines. But all his efforts go to waste as the petty struggles for favor that consume the inner courtyard overflow, leaving death in their wake.
Throwing himself headfirst into treacherous water, Wei Ying struggles against the current to create a future where he belongs and thrives, survive a present where danger hides in beauty, and tear down the powerful to get justice for the dead.
(Very interesting no cultivation harem AU with quite the different premise, intersex WWX is taken by the emperor's younger brother (NHS) as a concubine and has to navigate numerous plots and problems in the inner courtyard and beyond, in this (vaguely) a NHS/WWX fic with a splash of NHS/JYL/WWX as well as Jiang Yanli is NHS' wife, LWJ does not appear)
