Idea for Romance Saja's backstory because he's my beautiful wife and he deserves a backstory 😚

So I was thinking that because he's the Romance Saja, his backstory could have something to do with heartbreak. My personal headcanon is that he was dating or married as a human, but his partner cheated on him. When he found out, he started hearing Gwi-ma, and ended up selling his soul so he could get revenge on his cheating partner and the one they cheated on him with.

What are your ideas for the Saja Boys backstories (if you have any)??

i’m convinced the scene at the fan signing was romance and abby ignoring mira and just making goo goo eyes at eachother like

mira is looking for her gorgeous girlfriends meanwhile these two STUPIDS are kissing with their eyes

Propaganda I am NOT falling for:

Mu Qing is mean/selfish/uncaring

Xie Lian is a reliable/unbiased narrator

TGCF is the best MXTX series

Hua Cheng is well written

Any of the calamities being fully evil or fully good (although they're on different places of the scale)

Shen Qingqiu doesn't love Luo Binghe

Yue Qingyuan is a good love interest for either Shen

Bingqiu is toxic/abusive (they're strange for sure but to just say they're abusive or toxic ignores the complexities of their relationship and how they both actively TRY to fix what went wrong)

Bingqiu and Moshang were the only implied/canon ships

Jiang Cheng's actions throughout the novels were justified

Wei Wuxian is responsible for Jiang Cheng's or Lan Wangji's emotions and needs to repent for anything to them

Jin Ling is a brat

Jiang Cheng is a good guardian figure

Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian are brothers

Xiyao wasn't implied

It's Not Like I Like You!! But with Jin Zixuan and Jiang Cheng. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Random TGCF idea I had:

AU where every God has certain animals that represent them (similar to some Greek Gods who are represented by certain types of birds, snakes, etc), and they can turn into these animals/have a familiar of said animal and can control it.

The most obvious one is XL, considering he's confirmed to be a ferret, so imagine him with a little mischievous ferret that can deliver messages, spy for him, and plays with spiritual weapons like ruoye and e'ming.

Idk if it's that good of a concept, just a silly one I thought of while lowkey half asleep...

You implied in a post that Jiang Cheng is partially responsible for orphaning Jin Ling and I wonder what you mean? I can't remember anything he did to cause it

I’m sorry, but do people not realize that Jiang Cheng’s actions led to direct, causal consequences? Jiang Cheng lets his petty insecurities get to him, which leads to:

him publicly abandoning Wei Wuxian, openly declaring him as an enemy to the (orthodox) cultivation world, and withholding why he owed a debt to the Wen siblings because “tired baby is cranky baby,” while at the same time…

not completely cutting off contact but, instead, covertly helping sneak Jiang Yanli to Yiling to show off her wedding gown, giving Wei Wuxian the false impression that he was still conditionally welcomed enough that it would be safe to accept the invitation to Jin Ling’s one-month celebration, and these first two points lead to…

the Jin Clan feeling comfortable enough to ambush him on the way to said one-month celebration, because they were both positive that Wei Wuxian would show up AND assured that no one would be around to defend him. Jin Guangyao takes advantage of this to kill off Jin Zixuan. That’s one parent down, and the consequences of this are…

…now an unjustifiably angry Jiang Cheng, rather than staying behind to comfort his grieving sister and fatherless nephew, attending the murder banquet, showing a united front to all other clans that Wei Wuxian is neither supported nor welcome. He provides no explanations in neither Wei Wuxian nor the Wen siblings’ defenses, and when Wei Wuxian shows up to said murder party, he keeps silent as Wei Wuxian is verbally AND physically attacked, making no attempts at diplomacy or de-escalation because he doesn’t view this battle as affecting him (because correct me if I’m wrong, but Wei Wuxian’s corpses don’t attack the Jiang disciples at this moment). Which leads to…

Jiang Yanli running onto an active battleground to find Wei Wuxian and, eventually, giving her life for him.

Then as a little treat, instead of Jiang Cheng taking responsibility for his hand in how all of these events played out, he instead teaches his orphaned nephew that Wei Wuxian intentionally killed both of his parents in cold blood and that this young child should kill anyone who reminds Jiang Cheng of Wei Wuxian, grooming the kid into his tool of vengeance. Guanyin Temple is the only moment where he drops the facade that this was ever about Jin Ling, when he basically says “You took everything from me and left me with this orphan” pointing directly at Jin Ling and causing the kid to deflate.

This is also what I mean when I say that Jiang Cheng is a follower who wants to be treated like the leader be refuses to be. He wants to play both sides—posturing to the cultivation world that he’s cut all ties with Wei Wuxian with that staged fight but then sneaking Jiang Yanli to him when she asks, siding with the cultivation world wanting to exterminate the Wen remnants and shun Wei Wuxian at the emergency conference but telling Wei Wuxian that he’s there for the latter’s “benefit”—because he never wants to make a decision that can be confidently placed on his own head. He wants the benefit of actions he didn’t take—“why am I not being praised as if I killed the xuanwu of slaughter when I led the search party afterwards?” “I’ll take credit for killing Wei Wuxian even though I literally didn’t.”—while shoving all of the responsibility to others—“you repaid my debt to the Wen siblings, so that’s your bad luck,” “you almost died to save everyone in the cave and now the Wen are knocking on the door, so that’s your bad luck, nevermind that I also tried to kill Ling Wangjiao in that same cave.��

Jc stans are a constant refrain of, “Looks guys, he didn’t repay his debt to the Wen at the cost of everyone else’s ire, that was Wei Wuxian! He didn’t lead the ambush and host the banquet, that was the Jin! He’s just a hapless baby, a widdle guy! He’s only there for numbers! He’s only there for face! Nothing is ever his fault!” when truthfully, most of the events of the story past the war are directly his fault, and that’s why he has not a damn thing to say when Jin Guangyao calls him on it.

I always die a little inside when people draw e'ming as a child because. You guys do know that e'ming is just a euphemism for hua chengs dick. Right.??

[seraphaggot]

Slowly learning how to draw so that one day I can draw my beautiful wife jin guangyao with boobies

Love shipping Mu Qing with everyone but I will always stand by the fact that no one deserves him

[seraphaggot]

I hate that TGCF isn't as accepting of a fandom as SVSSS.

Cause in SVSSS you can say shit like: "I ship the MC with the father of his canon love interest." and the fandom will nod and go: "Yeah makes sense I like it".

But in the TGCF fandom you can say: "I ship the MC with his two first friends, who've stood by him in his early days, but they were tragically torn apart by fate, causing everyone to go their own paths and only meet again after decades, yet the two friends felt immense regret for their departure and decided to stand by the MC once again and protect him, as they've secretly tried doing through the decades they haven't been with eachother." and the fandom will go: "How dare you destroy the pairing of MC and ML. How dare you have other opinions. How dare you ship something that makes sense and is healthy."

And that's just sad. Because I can't just say stuff like: "Yeah XL should be PM's and SWD's Sugar Baby as a treat lol" or "He deserves to be loved so he should have a harem anyways lmao" without THOSE fans crawling on my ceiling at night ready to assassinate me.

Especially in a work as shipable as TGCF.

Jin Zixuan would be like those corny guys on tiktok who post male feminist videos but he'd do it so sincerely and Jiang Yanli would unironically love them

[seraphaggot]

Hate when I'm being such a freak that even ao3 can't match what I want and I have too much shame to write it myself

[seraphaggot]

Mu Qing is literally the most sane person in tgcf and I will never forgive any of the other characters for how they treated him

[seraphaggot]

It'll just be fluff of them being taken care of by their partner btw...

[seraphaggot]

I headcanon WWX as trans but only in his original body cause MXY was just a cis guy so WWX is absolutely flabbergasted post-resurrection everytime he takes off his pants

[seraphaggot]

"guy who's scared of women but is worshipped as a fertility god due to a clerical error implying he has a massive dick" is the funniest character idea ever, no one is doing it like mxtx

[seraphaggot]

Shen Yuan is the biggest yearner of all mxtx novels and I will not elaborate
