In light of the paralysis of Jiang Yanli's arm, I had the thought to potentially use this and Wei Wuxian's worry re: that mess to get him dabbling with The Bad Juju (in this case nightmare energy) again. I'm tossing a couple of kinds of pasta at the wall here, please let me know if any of this is feasible and what I might need to know if so?
(General question: Are the snoyotes in any way nightmare-energy-oriented or are they just hungry and mad?)
A: Can an antivenom of some kind be developed using nightmare energy as a venom substitute? (This is a super rough idea but I wanted to check with y'all before I dug any deeper into it.)
B: In canon, proper application of the right paper talisman can draw lingering curses/poisons out of the victim and into the talisman user. Would that sort of thing be possible with the venom?
B2: If drawing the paralysis into himself is possible, could he then potentially (non-scientific phrasing here but) burn it away somehow with nightmare energy over time? (I already figure that if this is possible, it would be a slow process and also be very Not Good For Him - neither of which would actually deter him.)
