Quarters of Change - Heaven Bound

[dwuerch-blog]

It's Sizzlin' in the South

I read that more than 30 million people remain under heat advisories across much of the southern and central U.S. Officials have linked at least 13 deaths to the heat wave. The near-record temperatures are being driven by a weather phenomenon known as a heat dome — when pockets of hot air become trapped in place for days or weeks by variations in the jet stream. Temperatures are expected to…

No Paths are Bound vol.1 by @cataclysmicevie 🔥🖤

this has been in the works since last november.

i discovered a friend i’d met through bookbinding also loved mxtx and when we agreed to do an exchange i knew exactly what i was making. could i have made this less than 6 books? absolutely. so many mistakes were made with these books but all in all i’m very happy with how they came out and i’m so happy she finally has them!

the art on the dust jackets is by @/ RACCUN7 on twitter and the end page art is by @huaepiphany !! both artists were so kind to let me use their art for this project and it would not be complete without it!! 🖤

if you’ve never read this fic but you love tgcf then i cannot recommend this enough. this fic is one of my top 5 all time favorite things i’ve ever read and to this day i think about the character development and story probably more than the original story and if ever there was an oc i loved it would be ren song. i think everyone should read this and love it as much as me and i cannot wait to make my own copy sometime :) i’ll probably post some more closeups of the other books soon, but i just thought i’d share these!

I don’t think Xie Lian ever really got the chance to feel human. When he was born he was the center of the world, and since he was young he wanted to be a god. There was nothing he couldn’t do and nobody who didn’t love him, he had massive privilege and he knew it, and at the time, he really genuinely thought he was omnipotent. His mind skipped mortality and went straight to expecting godhood. But even when this period of his life is over, what comes next is isolation. Now, he’s someone without heavenly appeal but with knowledge and experiences much beyond the understanding of mortals. He lives among them, takes the same jobs, eats the same food, has the same needs, he can try to help them, he can try to love them as he always has, but there’s still something that’s just not quite the same. He may understand their plight after living through poverty, but he’s never truly been the common person he’s always wished to save. He can’t grow old, he can’t die, nothing can kill him, his existence is something so beyond humanity but still so far from the god he dreamed of being. And so, he berates himself whenever he has strong emotions or slips up a little or says something kind of weird or misses little details, becuase he still sees himself as not quite human enough to make those kinds of completely normal mistakes. He pushes people away before he has the chance to hurt them, before they have the chance to learn to hate him. So when Hua Cheng finally comes into the picture, he’s trying to say it’s okay to be human, Xie Lian. It’s okay to want to save yourself too.

CHARLIE & EMILY in 1x06 - "Welcome to Heaven"

[emotionaldisaster909]

Inside someone else’s memories, Hua Cheng whispers the same thing.

“I’m sorry.”

His hands cradle Xie Lian’s face, wishing he could speak to his god again.

Never before has the child prayed with the expectation of an answer, but god, how desperate he is for his love to look on his face one last time.

To hear his voice when he speaks, and give him an answer.

An arrangement no one is really happy with.

His occasional walks with his betrothed are as unavoidable as they are uneventful. She talks, he listens. He doesn't make the same mistake again of disagreeing with her on something, instead hes tasked with showing her around. A walk through the palace, a walk through town, through the market, around the city walls. He wonders if he can postpone the wedding for as long as he keeps finding places for him to take her. But then again Xianle is only so big, and he thinks suggesting that "Your majesty perhaps I can show her Yong'an first" would get his head cut off instead.

The Emperor and the Queen dont bother sending Xie Lian away anymore when theyre on these walks. And his occasional presence makes it all so much worse. Because he cant zone out when his Highness is there. Instead Feng Xins gaze follows him, miserable and pleading. that is until theres a tug at his arm and the sound of his fiancé clearing her throat, and hes forced to look away. Its absolute torture.

I had this wierd dream were I read a tgcf fanfic where sometime during the couple of centuries xie lian was on his own he got taken in by this family who seen like a teen on his own and felt bad.

So they looked after him and he only let them coz he needed somewhere to stay and could do things for them in return and he was 17 in there eyes so it would only be for like a year at best before he could say he needed to go off to the world.

But the problem was they had this child of their own who was like 7 at the time and some way some how xie lian figured out it was his mother reincarnated and then the kid kinda grew up and then the writer got really wierd and incest-y so everyone fucking hated the fic coz it had so much potential to be wholesome

And I took it upon myself to re-write it without the incest part and put my own spins on it too and it got very creative without me meaning it too somehow.

There was a bit were xie lian went to a spiritual room with all these ribbons of his ancestors lives and he used it to find out his suspicions about his new brother but he also found some of his other ancestors were also reincarnated and a pretty bad one was that the family didn't like the story of and always praised that this mofo died bc he was a bad omen in their lives.

So xie lian and his now grown reincarnated mum had to go find this ancestors and make sure he wasn't bad again and then when he was they defeated him together and the brother had memories of his past life as xie lians mum during it and got to tell xie lian how loved he was and how she would always ve there for him no matter what form she takes and then he got to watch this new life of hers grow old have his own family bc he was still his own person and stuff and xie lian got to have a kind of proper good bye with his mum and now with his adoptive brother he also loved.

And yeah that was a wierd dream
