Trivia

• The screen name "all-things-to-all-men" is taken from the translated lyrics of Jin Guangyao's Official OST Song, seen below. These lyrics are also quoted in the glowfic character pages of both Meng Yao (not-a-single-sin) and Jin Guangyao (all-things-to-all-men). Seen below:

The more humble you are, the more terrified you are
Can’t bear to touch anything in this world
You froze your unfeeling heart and put on a moving act

The more eloquent you are, the more inarticulate you feel
They’re all to fill up the vacantness in your heart
You try to be all things to all men.
But who knows who you truly are?

[...]

As if a warning, and as if self-mockery
You lamented that life is destined to be short
And how many people in your life are willing to know who you truly are?

Willing to know?
