This is a repost from my journal today, which is relevant for this community. Feel free to share your own DMBJ journey!

I‘ve been taking a bit of a break from DMBJ after the Pingxie exchange, but as you could see from my recent art post, I‘m back in the right headspace for it now.

I am going to reread the parts of Volume 4 that Merebear has translated (they are more than halfway finished, so fast OMG) and catch up, so I can get closer to Sha Hai (that will take some time yet though).

Meanwhile I hear NPSS has posted new Rain Village chapters which I‘m saving for the really dark time of the year…

I‘ve also decided to finally watch The Lost Tomb 1. By happy coincidence, bladedweapons has also started it and keeps linking episode reaction posts in dmbj_tombraiders here in this community. Check them out for some lovely screenshots and Xiaoge gifs!

Also have a poll, because I'm in the mood:

I‘m going to try to keep a semi-regular schedule for these because I have collected so many bookmarks by now and keep finding new enjoyable fics. Anyone is welcome to add their own recs of course!

I also got permission to share/repost the recs hils does on their Tumblr.

Today‘s rec is a lovely romantic Pingxie fic:
