Just my beefleaf girls💞🥩🍃
About the dresses:
Omggg this was favorite thing to drawwww, I’m not that good with glossy textures like HeXuan’s dress but I tried, I wanted both of them to have a very bold, very night club, very euphoria type of dress I also tried for them to be very much opposites in styles, now, SQX I loved drawing her dress, pretty angelic if you ask me, with feathers and a soft mint color
About the rest! Just some sketches of them, I would looove to read a fanfiction of them going to a party together, and like picture, they go as friends right? Maybe a reunion with xie lian and hua cheng andddd maybe Shi QingXuan s a bit drunk and just friendly dancing with everyone, and u have poor He Xuan eating while watching all of that untiiil, Qing Xuan notices this and tries to dance with her and she just continues to say how great that dress (she chose) makes He Xuan look, and maybe they kiss omggg now I’ll have to do more drawings for this
(IM BACKKKKK)

So, I made a recompilation with all the animatics I did during the year!!
Maybe it's not the best, but I'm really proud of what I acomplished this year and that, step by step, I started to feel more confident with my drawing abilities.
If you go and see it and leave a like or a comment, thank you so much!!! And if you just go and just watch it, also thank you!!!

To welcome you to the danmei fanfic nightclub, please can I request some Beefleaf hurt/comfort. Thanks ♡
vnsdifugv hi!!!
he xuan hugs his girlfriend, soothing their hair over their back gently. it's been a long day for both of them, and shi wudu showing up unannounced to their shared penthouse apartment hadn't helped. "you're better than he is," he xuan murmurs, kissing their forehead, "if you don't believe it, a-xuan, then i will until you do." "he left me there," they say, quiet and heartbroken, "and i needed him and he lied to me, he-xiong, i can't-" "you matter, a-xuan. he doesn't." he takes a breath, kisses them again. "i love you." it's been a long-unspoken facet of their relationship.

omg can you please talk about beefleaf as a ship, dynamic, friendship.
oh also what are your thoughts on that scene in last arc - when he xuan diguised as hua cheng comes to help them out for a bit and gives back sqx's fan - and when he sees sqx being himself still, his talking way and brag?, his laugh/antiques. he snorts/ humphs/ scoffs. honestly to me i loved that seen i just don't know how to explain my thoughts on hx reaction to that but i loved it.
thank you<33 [i love your blog sm]
*english isn't my first lang so forgive me for the grammar and wrong words that i might have used ig..
Sorry for taking so long to answer, this landed while I was on my way to Boston and I wanted to wait until I was back on my laptop to answer!
I also really like the scene where He Xuan gives back the fan because of how subtle it is--it's the kind of thing that you can miss if you're not paying attention. I think I probably missed it the first time I read the book and had to go back to verify. Doing it undercover is such a He Xuan way to handle it, too. He spends most of the book in disguise so it feels right that a big gesture like this would also be done in disguise.
My thoughts on them as a ship are mostly that I don't like the fanon focus on them as cute silly girlfriends. From what I've seen in fandom, their female forms are kind of just taken as representation for its own sake, but I think what it's doing as a metaphor is showing how both He Xuan and Qingxuan are not who they say they are. It's almost like a fun game to Qingxuan to flit around in pretty dresses and act like the arbiter of justice, but he's not even supposed to be there and the fact that he is there is actually the ultimate injustice. (Compared to Ling Wen, meanwhile, who is forced to present as male to even be taken seriously, Qingxuan just seems frivolously out of touch.) And He Xuan is obviously pretending to be Ming Yi, so there it's just like... a double reveal about "she's not who we thought she was." It's all disguises to He Xuan anyway, so why not throw some gender on there too.
Anyway, Shuangxuan aren't really that interesting to me as a ship until Qingxuan is being held prisoner in the creepy underwater prison--to me, they're a darkship that I would compare to Xuexiao in MDZS. I guess that's like... the moment that they're honest with each other? He Xuan reveals who and what he really is, and Qingxuan comes to the understanding that he didn't ascend on his own merit. That's when it's interesting to ask "so what if they're attracted to each other?" because now they have to contend with the issues.
The thing is that both of them care about each other, which is important to me for a ship (and also something that I think tends to be dismissed by people who don't ship it). Qingxuan clearly feels remorse and understands that he stole something irreplacable from He Xuan (who he genuinely saw as a friend while he was Ming Yi), but He Xuan doesn't blame Qingxuan and doesn't go out of his way to hurt him even when he had the opportunity to. It's not really enough for them to reconcile, but it sure is enough to play around with a doomed and toxic post-canon relationship.
Lastly... ghosts in TGCF can disperse if they give up on whatever's tying them to the world. I think Xuan Ji gives up her resentment for Pei Ming and is able to disperse and move on since that was what kept her there as a fierce ghost. He Xuan's revenge is supposed to be what keeps him around, but he doesn't disperse even after enacting his perfect revenge plot. His story is deliberately left unfulfilled because it's supposed to show that revenge is unfulfilling, but that also leaves a really nice opening for He Xuan to rediscover what it means to love instead of hate.
Also, Qingxuan definitely ascends for real sometime post-canon so they have time to work it out. MXTX herself told me so in a dream

BeefLeaf fix-it AU
In which He Xuan takes a "actually you can give me back what I lost" stance and proceeds to wife Shi Qingxuan up. Repayment for the lost fiance
Also for the ruined achievements, when worshipers of the wind and water masters start switching to the earth and wind masters. Ships, as it turns out, can be built to withstand heavy storms even heavenly ones, if you pray properly (from the complementary instruction book). And move faster too, the water tyrant doesn't offer that one
The ghost king also wants repayment for the lost family members. BeefLeaf has three kids now. One son and two daughters. Shi Qingxuan willingly names them after He Xuan's father, mother, and sister. He Xuan comes up with a suitable explanation for why Shi Wudu has to pay his respects to the spirits in question and bless the kids. Personally. And humbly. Nice
He Xuan does not tell anyone of this. He does not reveal any dastardly plot. Black water doesn't even remember to feed his fish. He just keeps living as Ming Yi and does not bother informing anyone why he ascended
One day, after the first or second kid is born, he walks up to Shi Wudu after decades of glowering to say:
"If you do anything that ruins this, what I have, or anything happens to my family I will tear your head off. Clean off"
Then she waltzes off to go be Shi Qingxuan's mommy goth girlfriend again. Who fully believes they are living the ultimate fantasy of any romantic and is so glad his most special people are finally getting along. She's been pushing them together long enough
Shi Wudu does not know where he erred in this situation. He never will. That's none of his business, not anymore

The girlfriend, who had only marginal knowledge of TGCF and sees me scrolling twitter out of the corner of her eye -
"What kind of trees do beefleaves come from? Or is it some kind of dish?"

so, i've read a lot of people say that beefleaf fanart is misleading for those who haven't read the book because they are not "pastel/goth girlfriends" and, while it's true that the book doen't focus on that at all and that their story is very tragic, beefleaf's fanart is also not inaccurate
precanon beefleaf was pastel/goth friends oblivious to the whole business and it might have been romantic
even if they spend a lot of time in their male forms, that's because when their tragic arc starts one of them can't change anymore! shi qingxuan is obviously trans and he xuan's very interpretably trans as well
postcanon they could potentially become pastel/goth girlfriends

Honestly I think its really weird that like the vast majority of beefleaf fics are mlm like 1172 vs 220???? Like. Ugh. I don't know how to explain it but it makes me feel really weird and uncomfortable that a character that's so heavily transfem coded and at the very least genderfluid has 1172!!!! gay fics and only 220 lesbian??? Idfk maybe its because I myself is a genderfluid lesbian
so okay as a fellow genderfluid lesbian I have a lot of thoughts about this and I could talk all day about it but here's my spark notes -- My girlfriend and I had a really good discussion once about how fanfiction in general is just... not made for trans women or lesbians in general? The genre is heavily weighted toward mlm content, which I suspect is a combination of the genre's history and a lot of cultural weirdness around representing wlw relationships. But trans women (based on her experiences and discussions) just don't consume fanfiction the way other demographics do, and thus also don't produce fanfiction to the same degree.
So the onus falls on other demographics to create that content, but since non-mlm content gets heavily overlooked (because again, the demographics most interested in it aren't reading fanfiction to the same degree as other demographics), people are disincentivized from creating it. The problem with tran girl!SQX and wlw Beefleaf content in specific is that (1) there's just enough plausible deniability about SQX's gender feels that writers can depict her male form without feeling like they ever need to address her genderfluidity/trans femininity, (2) a lot of readers take He Xuan's comments at face value and ditch any nb/female depiction of He Xuan because "clearly he doesn't like it" nevermind that SQX shows she'd leave someone alone if they didn't want to transform with her when talking to Xie Lian, and (3) all the previously mentioned biases present in fanfiction writing communities make it easier to steer toward writing mlm. (Interestingly, when you look at artwork for Beefleaf it's overwhelmingly female depictions and wlw/nblw. Visual mediums don't seem to have the same hang-up that fanfiction does.) I am a strong believer in "You can write what you like and I'll take or leave it", but I also think it's important to consider WHY we keep falling back on creating mlm content when presented with characters whose genders aren't cis. And I wish more people were thinking about it outside of those who are desperately seeking that kind of content.

i’m about to go nap but i’m on my bullshit again and thinkin about post-canon sqx and like.
listen my heart belongs to beefleaf but consider two things:
1) poly beefleaf
2) enemies to lovers good slowburn pei ming/shi qingxuan 😩👌💦 they’re Not Friends in the beginning. He’s taking care of her bc it’s what swd would want. She doesn’t like it, but she desperately needs the help.
slowly.... slowly... somethings shifts. They mourn over their common loss, and it brings them closer. They start to understand each other in a way they never took the time to before. feelings start to fester. sqx is slow to trust, still heartbroken and confused by her continuing feelings for hx. Liking pm doesn’t take those feelings away, either. Now it’s *two* feelings.
and ofc eventually she reascends and becomes a very popular goddess but the only heavenly officials she really has anything to do with are xl, pm and yushi huang.
anyway i love them, thanks.
also like sqx should have as many boyfriends and girlfriends as she wants bc she deserves it

BeefLeaf Week Day 3: Jealousy 
I'm embarrassed to confess I am a jealous girlfriend I want you to belong to me But I think they call that jealousy
A drawing I did for @beefleafweek, running recently on Twitter. I’m slightly ashamed that I started with a darker prompt, but only slightly. I decided to redraw here the statue destroying scene because it was cool and red elements are my passion.

BEEFLEAF GIRLFRIENDS 🥺💚
We all know even if Shi Qingxuan is not in a female form they would use skirts.
So, I used 'popular' from wicked in here.
also I noticed someone (flobubbles) in YouTube made a whole animatic of beefleaf with the song! Go and check it!
He Xuan loves being by Shi Qingxuan's side!!!
