oops!

[good-vs-evo]

saw some ppl on tiktok getting SO PRESSED about polycules and relationships other than hualian and that was kind of funny so i needed to make and explain my relationship chart

i’d love to explain to them (as a polyam person myself >:3) that love is not a limited commodity and hua cheng falling for yin yu doesn’t mean he suddenly doesn’t care about xie lian at all but i fear that would be lost on them HAHA

also if you… don’t wanna see that kinda stuff… just don’t look at it… don’t hate on people who do… life would be easier for everyone… but moving on

i debated splitting yin yu x he xuan x hua cheng from the moon quartet then decided against it because it was getting waaaay too chaotic

rip to quan yizhen, either he has no manhua art or i couldn’t find it (i haven’t read the manhua yet ffjhshd)

uhhh i got a lot of inspo abt huayin from @devotedbutterfly’s tiktoks and stuff (sorry for going thru like all of ur stuff and generally being a demon on ur tiktok and tumblr ahsjdj) and xuanyin/blackmoon stuff from @ghooostbaby so. yes their stuff is very cool :]

anyways-

first chart is different explanations for everyone’s relationship with one another

the second is me trying to simplify them into categories

BUT i’ll explain this a lotttt better in text

quanyin

uh. this one feels self explanatory

hualian

if i have to explain this one it’s over

fengqing

same as the first two LMAO

xianle trio

yes, i had to break the trio and quartet into different categories

mulian: mu qing always admired xie lian for his self-assuredness, strength, and also beauty. he was a bit jealous of him for a long time, but they were able to talk about it and they both forgave each other for everything that happened in the past. he's had a crush on him since the beginning, but was bad at showing it. xie lian thought mu qing was pretty and a very interesting person; when he got older, he regretted not spending more time getting to know him, so he makes up for it later on in life! he loves when mu qing is softer and shy and more vulnerable than he is usually, and loves how mu qing is a good listener and is pretty emotionally intelligent.

fengqing: well. you get the idea

fenglian: feng xin was always loyal, the first person to have fallen in love with xie lian, and dianxia’s first kiss. he would’ve never left xie lian if xie lian hadn’t told him to. he respected xie lian a lot. xie lian loved how much feng xin cared, and felt immensely guilty about being unable to give him anything more. when they reunite, he showers feng xin with gifts and words of affirmation (he got better at expressing his emotions) and they spend a lot of time together

xianle quartet

all the other ones stay the same, so i’ll just explain the two new ones

huaqing: they were once stuck together and had to talk just out of boredom. they bickered a little but the more they talked the more they realized that there was more to the other. mu qing feels genuinely bad about what he did to hua cheng. he has a hard time apologizing but he tried his best to express his remorse, and hua cheng was pretty shocked (previously thought mu qing was a bit of an asshole) and, since mu qing was being sincere, decided to accept his apology. they hit some rough patches now and then, but xie lian and feng xin help them through it. they realized they’re pretty similar, and team up to stir up trouble with people they don’t like sometimes!

huaxin: feng xin was jealous of hua cheng because he was the one who won xie lian’s heart after 800 years and was really happy when he found out that xie lian liked him too. he admires that hua cheng was strong enough to help xie lian so many times. he also likes that hua cheng is a little cocky sometimes (read: very often), and finds hua cheng very good looking. hua cheng was jealous of feng xin for being the first person to be that close to xie lian, but appreciates how loyal he was throughout everything that happened and finds him pretty cool. he likes the way feng xin curses a lot when he’s pissed (finds it endearing)

huayin

ONE OF MY PERSONAL FAVES!!!

yin yu fell first, because hua cheng was so fascinatingly determined and also like the prettiest person he’s ever met. he was intimidating, but could be quite kind, as he was to yin yu when they broke past the employee/employer relationship and became closer

hua cheng began to notice the way yin yu came off as so meek and unnoticeable, but had a kind of poised anger and strength beneath all of that. he trusted yin yu with a lot of more important tasks, paid him well, and considered him as more of a right hand man or partner in crime than a henchman, then eventually as just a partner

e’ming also likes yin yu, and trusts him to take care of it

hua cheng finds it endearing when yin yu gets protective of him (both of them know hua cheng is perfectly capable, but hua cheng finds it sweet regardless)

yin yu cheered hua cheng on a lot with xie lian and patiently listened to everything hua cheng had to say about him

huayinlian/hualianyu

ANOTHER PERSONAL FAVE

ppl keep being like “oh but hua cheng would never cheat on xie lian” HOW IS THAT CHEATING! GOOD LORD! HUA CHENG STILL LOVES XIE LIAN, BUT HAS ALSO DEVELOPED FEELINGS FOR THE PERSON HE SPENT THE MOST AMOUNT OF TIME WITH

i digress

yin yu fell for xie lian because he heard about him all the time. how could you spend so much time hearing about how wonderful, kind, gracious, and amazing someone is without catching feelings a little? additionally, hua cheng allowed yin yu to visit xie lian’s temple and leave offerings, trusting him to be genuine in his actions. yin yu saw some of the paintings and sculptures of xie lian and found him beautiful. he knows a lot about xie lian's life, and truly wants him to find peace and happiness

xie lian loves how devoted yin yu was to hua cheng and how much he helped him. he knows those years were hard for hua cheng, and he’s glad that he had a companion (contrary to what people say about “cheating”, xie lian is incredibly happy that hua cheng managed to find love while he was waiting). i know yin yu is canonically “plain”, but xie lian loves him and thinks he’s very handsome :) he gives him a lot of compliments and words of affirmation

blackmoon (yinxuan)

taking a moment to appreciate that very awesome ship name

yin yu thought he xuan was terrifying and intense, only to discover that. he’s just a guy (/pos). but he does have a lot going on! he has urges and a complex history and emotions he doesn’t show to a lot of people and plans within plans and is generally such an interesting person with so many layers to him. beneath a lot of those layers is a guy who’s kind and smart and would’ve stayed kind and smart if his life wasn’t utterly ruined

he xuan initially thought yin yu was just kind of pathetic, but learned more about him and started to like him more. he finds his passion really attractive, loves how genuinely sweet, kind, and gentle he is as well as how harsh, cruel, and unrelenting he can be. he treats he xuan well and makes him feel human and real and knows when to leave him alone and knows when he wants attention and cooks for him and-

they feel seen around each other, having experienced similar things (such as having their destiny “stolen” in different ways though) and have experienced suffering in such a firsthand way. they’re ready to just chill together now :)

moon quartet (hua cheng, xie lian, he xuan, and yin yu)

xie lian finds he xuan cool, doesn’t have too many thoughts about him. he xuan thinks xie lian is cute and also mildly terrifying (i’m definitely editing this later on, i just don’t have a lot of thoughts about them yet)

hua cheng and he xuan have been close for a long time, helping each other out with ghost king business. hua cheng let he xuan relax and chill at ghost city when he needed to, and he xuan kept a close eye on the heavenly capital, so they met often and bonded. they’re both motivated by something and are incredibly passionate about that thing, so they mutually admire the other’s drive and courage

i have the least for them so far, but i just think they’d be sweet together :] they’d all help each other heal and be able to talk to each other. they’d love each other a lot and take care of one another when they need it and be there when someone needs someone :3 idk they’re so traumatized and deserve to recover from that i’ll form more thoughts i swear

ANYWAYS. that’s it for now i’m def gonna write stuff for all of these ships :0 they’re all very special to me 💖 i might add them to my 30 day fluff challenge :3 cuz they all deserve some nice fluff! (ill also keep updating + editing! feel free to ask me to explain relationships more, id love to <3)

[renjunnipeikko]

consider: xie lian being like “we need friends that are also couples!” and hua cheng agreeing because “ofc gege” but hua cheng doesn’t really like anybody so he’s just picks the two people he knows (hx and yy) and is like “they each have their own dumpster fire soap opera going on. i need to make sure they end up with their partners so gege can have dinner parties like he wants” but post canon hx and yy are both like “why are we still here? just to suffer?” and end up finding companionship with each other in that and so hua cheng notices them spending more and more time together while both doing parkour to not be seen ever by sqx and qyz and… wait. wait no. he doesn’t like where he can see this going. why does this feel weirdly romantic?? you two can’t fall in love! from hua cheng’s perspective you can only have one true love and you two already have obsessions with other people so this is not allowed! and not once does he consider if hx and yy DID get together, they could still be their friends who are also a couple, because he already planned this out and it! does! not! fit! with! his! fantasy! and so just like that hua cheng becomes a very aggressive beefleaf and quanyin shipper

so if the reason that hua cheng could show xie lian the 'footage' of yin yu's downfall was because it was what black water observed under cover in the heavens, that means he xuan knew yin yu as a god before he was banished ...

i like to imagine he xuan contacting hua cheng right after the banishment to please help out his favourite sad little guy

and then there is the piece of the yin yu fan cam hua&xuan have from yin yu's mortal life that black water couldn't have gotten from observing himself ... there had to have been trust & intimacy of some kind between yin yu and he xuan (or hua cheng or both) for him to have that ...

also fun to imagine the scolding yin yu gave he xuan and hua cheng when he finds out they're going around screening a catalogue of his greatest humiliations to impress hua cheng's new sweetheart

i love everything im working on rn but i cant stop the brainrot truly no matter how hard i try...

i zoned out in front of my laptop and i wrote an entire synopsis for the yinxuan au idea i posted abt on my main😭🙏

shortened version:

Yin Yu is a mortal who’s lived in constant danger for many years. His powers are coveted as the legendary son of the daughter of the moon. He hasn’t inherited her full powers, like being able to control moon magic, but if he’s killed before he grows into his abilities, his killer is able to absorb his powers for themself. He uses his plain features and quiet presence to move in silence and he’s been running for a long time.

One day, when Yin Yu’s been injured and manages to escape, he gets a little sloppy. He doesn’t cover his tracks entirely, and he gets cornered by a particularly determined hunter. He’s at the edge of a cliff with a sword to his throat and his spear gone and he makes a desperate, desperate prayer.

But prayers at night are never heard by the gods and they rarely reach the ears of the moon, not even for her grandson. Instead, it’s more wicked creatures of the night that come to answer a plea.

Yin Yu takes the deal offered by a mysterious devil named He Xuan, very few questions asked, and passes out.

When he wakes up, he’s being haunted by a devil. A damn cute devil… not that he noticed.

He immediately sets to work attempting to exorcize it, but precisely nothing goes to plan. Chaos ensues. Yin Yu may or may not fall in love.

anyways um. if anyone would be interested… i actually am going so insane abt this… genuinely one of my favorite ideas rn…

moon quartet thoughts cuz the brainrot is getting to me 😭🙏

next

since yy and hc both have braids, i decided that xl would have a lil braid on his left side going into his bun (mirror of hc) and hx sometimes braids his hair down the side like yy :]

hx is the best cook, hc is second best, yy is passable, and xl is [CENSORED]

ppl see hx as like kind of scary and serious but i think he'd be kind of playful w all three of them :) he likes fighting w/ hc (says he needs to humble him), riling up yy (because he's just so chill so often and he thinks he looks cute when he's a little mad), and trying to make xl laugh so hard he either cries or falls over or falls off whatever he's sitting/laying on

xl is so good at reminding everyone to take care of themselves and they're getting him to do the same for himself more and more :D

hx is clingy like a cat in the morning, and xl can carry him in one arm while he does his usual morning routine

yy's a super good singer and any compliments abt it make him blush (he still likes singing/humming when he does stuff around the house)

hc is kinda a neat freak and will keep things very polished and clean in their house

oh yeah they share a house

they also share paradise manor (mainly yy and hc)

and puqi shrine (mainly hc and xl)

and also visit bw territory (mostly hx and yy)

xl and yy both wake up early and they spend some time in the mornings hanging out! xl makes tea and yy will make them a quick lil snack and they sit together and chat or just chill in silence

during that time, hc moves over to cuddle hx until he gets up, then hx goes and searches for xl lmao

hx is the tallest, so forehead kisses to everyone! affectionately (but a little condescendingly to hc just to make him mad /t)

everyone forehead kisses xl because hes just so fucking cute

xl fights people, anybody, who ever say bad things abt his bfs (they all think thats unbelievably hot)

im gonna keep making more when i think of more because i love these guys so frickin much.
