Pretentiousness, one of the human behaviors. It refers to the act of presenting oneself as possessing qualities, even if they are not true, in order to fulfill one's vanity or deceive others. It carries a negative connotation. However, there is also an element of affirmation - for example, as Tang Yin said, "fake it till you make it." Pretend to have something until you actually possess it. If you lack sophistication, pretend to be sophisticated until you truly become sophisticated. If you lack confidence, strive to forcefully be confident until you genuinely feel confident. Aspire for style, pretend to have it until you truly develop a sense of style. If you don't have it, pretend to have it until one day you do. Pretend, repeat, persist, and keep persisting. Embrace consumerism, pursue aesthetics, be driven by desires, and use disguise sincerely, and eventually you will bid farewell to pretense..." He couldn't help but laugh, looking at her with a serious expression, he lightly tapped her forehead and said, "Isn't it just about loving to pretend? Why all the unnecessary talk?"

![[Inuyasha] Spider Silk Fiction](https://image.amritaedu.com/images/50868.jpg)
In the 18th year of the Sengoku period, I found a companion after traveling back in time. Although he had a dark personality and was a recluse who occasionally needed to go into seclusion, I reluctantly cooperated with him because he coveted my abilities. Our races didn't match either. However, I was completely attracted to his appearance and was satisfied with him - until his former lover, the white moonlight, came back from the dead, making me realize that he still had feelings for another woman. So, I decisively broke up with him. Warning: This illogical, old-fashioned, and melodramatic time-traveling story, told in the third person, lacks intrigue and manipulation. However, the pragmatic time-traveling female protagonist who excels at conspiracy and manipulation, and the perverted main antagonist (who reproduces his own subordinates), make this a short and entertaining piece. Updates will be sporadic. When I revisited Inuyasha, I realized that I wanted to seduce Naraku. You might be thinking, 'Here we go again, it's the same plot, the same routine.' To that, I can only say, 'Yes, I love this routine, it represents a new era of family values.'
