#HE KNEW XIE LIAN NEEDED A PRINCE OF HIS OWN#AFTER PUTTING EVERYONE ELSE FIRST FOR CENTURIES#HE NEEDED A HOT SEME TO BE HIS SAVIOR FOR ONCE#hua cheng wanted to be someone gege could rely on and that meant being cool and suave and confident and THE BEST and HOT#he coulda gone back to wu ming deference mode#but after seeing xie lian almost get stabbed a million times again he realized submission was not what would save XL#UGHHHHHHH#HUA CHENG MAKES HIMSELF BIGGER SO THAT DIANXIA CAN LET HIMSELF BE SMALL(in a non-self-sacrificial way)#tgcf#hualian

I can‘t get over how confident, self-assured and almost cocky Hua Cheng can act in front of Xie Lian even though he‘s actually super nervous and insecure about the love of his life liking him back after waiting 800 years and building his entire life around the hope of finding Xie Lian and winning him over.

#GOOD TAGS FROM BROOB #tgcf #I have a lot of intense (read: full otaku crazy mode) thoughts about hua cheng #we all like to have fun imagining how much he's screaming internally and etc while putting on a cool suave facade #BUT IT GOES DEEPER THAN THAT #his character to me is all about making yourself into the person you want to be through force of will #so while the memes and fanart are funny and cute #when it comes down to it I don't actually see him as acting or performing one way while hiding an inner version of himself who is a mess #rather he LITERALLY and ACTUALLY has MADE HIMSELF into a guy who is cool and confident and at ease in almost any situation #including chilling with his god #and he is largely being completely genuine and relaxed the whole story #obviously carefully holding back some uhhh information and the full depth of his feelings #but not like... Acting #DO YOU UNDERSTAND MY VISIONS #like he wanted to be someone xie lian could rely on so badly & he made it happen and he kNOWS he made it happen and his confidence is real #not saying he doesn't get nervous and insecure ever as that's obviously an important part of his character as well #but when he's chilling. I THINK HE REALLY IS CHILLING. THATS MY BIG SPICY HUA CHENG OPINION
