Random TGCF Idea of the Day
The Cyrano AU returneth but make it three tumors
Or cut Cyrano entirely and just regular good old matchmaking
After Shi Wudu (unintentionally) gets pre-ascension Ling Wen humiliated at the essay contest, he canā€™t stop thinking about her. Partly because he feels a little bad about what happened (not that itā€™s his fault (itā€™s Jing Wenā€™s) and not that heā€™ll apologize for his part, but he at least wants her to know someone is in her corner) but also because he thinks heā€™s finally found someone else worth befriending in the heavens
Unfortunately for him, the other person heā€™s friends with is Pei Ming who immediately clocks SWDā€™s interest in Ling Wen as a crush and it is his sworn duty as both the god of love and a friend (read: heā€™s bored) to support his new bestie in all romantic endeavors! (Plus heā€™s also somewhat friendly with Ling Wen though not really friends yet, and also thinks she could use someone in her corner)
And of course once SQX learns that his brother has a crush on someoneā€¦
#well sqx thinks he can do better actually because lw is kind of gloomy and quiet#and he hates reading her essays (swd makes him)#but still his brother doesnā€™t have much going on in his life (and sqx knows itā€™s because of him) so anything to get swd out and socializing#whether they team up or independently try to push the two of them together#itā€™s going to be a disaster#if I wrote this Iā€™d probably want to do it as a no BJ au#or just ignore the xuli parts of the backstory#although Iā€™d still want lw to kill jw in the end because she deserves it#(I just donā€™t want to write it as a love triangle with bj)#(however I absolutely do want to write it as a love triangle with jing wen who is obsessive and unhinged over lw)#(and an antithesis to pm who get quiet and awkward when a girl shows him up)#(pm can deal with it. Jing wen is a ā€˜if I canā€™t have you I will ruin you typeā€™)#(which I think can also be a fun contrast to swd who everyone thinks is that type)#(and probably is to a degree but has enough self respect and respect for lw not to go that route)#(maybe he sees jw growing increasingly ugly with his obsession and resolves to Be Better)#(because he despises small minded people like jw most of all)#anyway I just think lw/swd are cute and would be a powerful power couple in public#and an adorable awkward mess in private#and i think that's beautiful#tgcf#ling wen#jing wen#pei ming#Shi Wudu#shi qingxuan#random tgcf thoughts#(also I think we as a fandom are not utilizing jing wen to his full potential)
