What’s your favorite book/game/show/movie/media genre? And is there any you don’t like?

I love fairy tale, medieval fantasy, historical fiction, reincarnation/time travel/stuff like that, ancient mythology, epic poetry, and horror

I don’t usually like romance, slice-of-life, science fiction, action, or dystopian

I want to say I like mystery but TBH I can never solve anything and don’t get the characters’ thought processes LOL

HELLO!! I’m here to explain Mydei’s immortality because apparently most people still don’t understand it 😞 So as Mydei’s no. 2 glazer, this is my duty

First of all, Mydei is not immortal in the traditional sense. He’s not “can’t die”, he’s “can revive”, and there is a difference.

Mydei can be killed in any way, for example in battle, but unless the attacker stabs through his weak spot, the 10th thoracic vertebrae (in other words, around the middle of his back), he will revive. Currently, Phainon and the Flame Reaver are the only ones who know this (well, they’re the same person).

In the 3.2 trailblazer quest, this was confirmed again directly in the story. Mydei is the one forcefully resisting permanent death so that he can keep fighting (for a better explanation, watch the Styxia part from any play-through)

His signature lightcone tells us that apparently the revival process is very painful. I know a lot of people don’t read lightcone descriptions, so I attached a picture. The Chrysos Heirs seem to be aware of this, or at least Phainon is, which is why he tried to prevent him from dying as much as possible in the Nikador fights
Thanks hoYo for making me feel bad every time I let him die </3

In summary…
Can Mydei die? Yes.
Can he revive? Yes, but only if he didn’t die from his weak spot, and the rebirth process is painful

Can Mydei touch Castorice? Yes.
Would it kill him? Also yes.
(Could be why he dropped out of the arm wrestling contest when he saw that Rice was his opponent)

And I’d love to include how his immortality is different from like Blade’s or something, but I don’t know any Blade lore I’m sorry 😭😭 I’ve only read Amphoreus lore cus I’m crazy

HII!! To fellow editors (esp. targeted to certain ones):

Can we please not use A.I. for our edits? Whether that’s in the form of generating A.I. images to use in the edit, or doing that TikTok “trend” thing where people send models of the character they’re trying to edit to A.I. to get it animated, or going as far as to try getting A.I. to create the entire edit for you. Or anything else that involves it really

First of all, I’m surprised that a lot of people still don’t know that generative (“art”) A.I. didn’t just build itself out of nowhere. It fed millions of artworks, animations, and videos from the internet without permission into the A.I. so that it could mash them up to make ugly pictures. A.I. continues to learn from everything they are provided and A.I developers continue to plagiarize. That also means if you are putting HoYoverse’s work into an A.I., you are literally feeding it to the A.I. and helping them infringe on copyright. If you feed chatGPT images of other people’s characters, it will literally store it in its system for it to learn from. That means you have just done something called indirect plagiarism!

Not only that, and this is something I recently got to learn more about, but A.I. produces a heck tone of waste and uses water to power itself. It’s nothing but a waste. Stuff along the lines of “Well, if you care about the environment so much, then why don’t you stop eating food too?” is a common response from A.I. users, but can we sit down for a moment and consider how ridiculous that sounds? Food isn’t waste if you’re eating it to sustain yourself. Food is a necessity in our lives, is generating A.I. slop a necessity? Also, eating sustainably is an option, and A.I. produces more waste than food anyway.

I will be unsubscribing from and blocking those who have used/continue to use A.I. for edits. From an editor to certain editors, editing is a form of art. Why are you trusting robots with your own creative work, helping them steal from others and contributing to destruction of the environment?

OK I’m curious, do YOU still watch long/full-length videos? (Esp. referring to the customized ones that show up on your recommended page)

For the 3rd option, I’m referring to when it’s something specific you’ve been looking for/looking towards in particular (e.g newest Cipher leaks, idk LOL)
