#dtbpf #danmei #audiobook

Finally, next week on YT I am starting my fifth(!?) BL review - another TutorYim series ofc haha

All links are in the post below!♥️

[ID: A DTBPF Drawing. Both characters drawn in a chibi form. Li Yu, with his hair down and dressed in his inner/sleeping robes smiles brightly as he is princess carried in Mu Tianchi's arms. One of his hands comes to rest on his own lap whilst the other rests against MT's heart/chest. He leans his head onto MT's shoulder. MT, also with his hair is a more informal/loose style, rests his head against LY's with a soft smile. He is also dressed in his sleeping robes. End ID]

For Valentine's 2026 💜 #dtbpf

[ID: A DTBPF Drawing. Li Yu and Mu Tianchi sit next to each other at a table overlooking a map. Li Yu excitedly chats about ducks as he points towards an area on the map. Mu Tianchi is looking at Li Yu with a soft loving expression with his hands folded into his lap. End ID]

Duck Army Planning o7 #dtbpf

[ID: A DTBPF Drawing. Li Yu dressed in a pale blue robe, is slouched on the ground at a brown table. His hair is loose with black, orange and white streaks throughout. He smiles with a closed eye :3 expression as he leans his face on his hands. He wears pearl bracelets on both wrists, one of which has a small gold charm of a fish. Some scales peak out of his robes on his elbows, chest and neck. He rests his elbows on the table and some of his leg can be seen next to him as he leans. End ID]

The face of a man who helped overthrow corrupt officials/princes :3c #dtbpf

[ID: A DTBPF drawing. Li Yu stands looking towards the viewer with a bright closed eye smile with his arms supporting the baby he has wrapped in a green blanket to his chest in a baby wrap. The baby is Xuebao who is looking up at him with an open-mouthed happy expression. End ID]

Girldad <3 #dtbpf

[ID: A DTBPF Drawing. Depicts a 3/4ths body shot of Li Yu in his human form, he has one arm folded behind his back and the other up pointing towards himself with a flustered/nervous expression. Two speech bubbles show a fish with a question mark and then a fish with an X as if he is denying being one. Fish scales can be seen on his elbow and neck and his hair has some gold, black and white highlights like the scales in his fish form. End ID]

Decided to start off my old art collection with some Li Yu <3 #dtbpf

MONDAY TREAT - Chapters 59, 60, and 61 have all been added to the drive! 💦

My goal is to have Book 3 finished in the next week or so, then ON TO BOOK 3.

Slowly but surely we are going to get this fish settled down!! haha #dtbpf #audiobook #danmei

I’ve been devouring #DTBPF recently and I’m nearly finished with volume 3 and yes, these are the silly mpreg fish danmei, but I’ve been so emotional over such a sweet and loving depiction of a queer family I wish the author could know just how much it means to me

Attempting to get back on my bullshit and finish this Fish Book 🐠 haha

Chapter 58 of The Disabled Tyrant's Beloved Pet Fish is now on the drive! Hoping this gets me in the groove of recording again! 🙏 #dtbpf

Still planning to finish the full audio series before moving!

Like very much.☺️🦋🌺🇦🇺
What is #dtbpf???

went through my folders last night and found my rough sketches of the illusts i did for the #dtbpf books lol these are messy

Merfolk Druid Li Yu!

Inspired by @thiscatdraws.bsky.social 's danmei dnd series! We can say this is pre-transformation so he's more swampy lolol

Text above Wang Xi reads: “Your Highness, you can't! The fish is too small! It won't be able to take it!” Text around Li Yu’s thought bubble reads: Mission failed! Mission failed! Mission failed! Around Mu Tianchi’s head are a lot of question marks

Prompt of that one scene in the first book of The Disabled Tyrant’s Beloved Pet Fish, the misunderstanding of the century, as a thank you for melons-n-cocoa on tumblr for g4g!
