Art inspired by “Paper Flowers for the God of Gods” by @mrcformoso on Ao3!

This fic was absolutely beautiful; plus, I had a great time drawing all these flowers:) I hope you enjoy!

[mrcformoso]

Do you have any headcanons about our lovely flower god and his husband that you haven’t written about yet?

I have a few! These are the top 5 I think about regularly.

Even after saving Xie Lian, Hua Cheng still prays in his temple and folds paper flowers every day. Xie Lian likes to watch his husband do so, and would wear the paper flower in his hair for the day, before finding a spot in the temple for it.

The temple is running out of space. Hua Cheng decided to just add another wing so it could fit more paper flowers.

Everyone in ghost city started learning flower language so that they can read Xie Lian's mood. It's now common for the ghosts to carry around a cheat sheet so they could interpret the flowers in his hair.

Xie Lian loves sitting in The Gardens and listens to the flowers talk about their Big Brother and everything he's done since he started growing them. Hua Cheng is incredibly embarrassed by it, but it makes XL happy so

XL and HC visit Puqi village often. Everyone knows who they are (the ox cart man was not secretive at all), but nobody says a word about it. XL's temple has since grown in size, and Puqi eventually becomes The Best Place to purchase flowers.

Wait wait wait... if Xie Lian represents the flower and Hua Cheng symbolizes butterflies... and butterflies are drawn to flowers for their nectar, aiding in pollination...

Did everyone know this!? Did everyone realize the symbolism of this, and I was just clueless this whole time!? I was just like, ohh pretty silver butterfly and never considered there was a deeper meaning

Outfit swap except Xie Lian wasn’t expecting The Outfit instead of his daily fit, but who can blame HC when thats the first thing he ever saw XL wearing

[mrcformoso]
