#also the big things like hua cheng being delulu for 780 years he had no trace of xie lian’s existence

hi guys another hot take on tgcf right out of the oven:

the story is officially Insane. Crazy. I get that some people are crazy in love, some people are crazy vengeful, etc etc, but almost all of the things that make people what they are (except for maybe xie lian and bwx) are handwaved away.

why does hua cheng have his luck?? how did sqx ascend as the god of wind (wine??)? why is fafa always in red? how did hua cheng not dissipate into butterflies the second he saw xie lian again? on that note, WHY BUTTERFLIES?? why can hua cheng eat xie lian’s cooking? why’s his cooking so bad? WHY IS XIE LIAN’S HAIR HALF OPEN LIVING ON THE DAMN STREETS??? why does he have a ******** kink??

I have no idea how any of those came about. These are pretty big motifs for all of them, yet all you can say is that,,, they’re there and they fit. that’s it
