Summary: Feng Xin is invited to Xie Lian’s wedding with a plus one on the invitation, but Feng Xin hasn’t been dating Jian Lan for years. Xie Lian doesn’t know this because they only recently came back in touch with each other. Feng Xin scrambles to find a date and asks Mu Qing to be his fake boyfriend. Xie Lian had wanted to invite Mu Qing, but didn’t have his address because he moved so many times over the years. Xie Lian is pleasantly surprised by FengQing being together, but is happy for them nonetheless. FengQing realizes their feelings for each other amidst all the chaos of the wedding, and sleep together for the first time after teasing each other at the reception.

@here4hualian kissmas day 3: morning kiss

Xie Lian wakes up before Wu Ming. The two have been travelling for several weeks now after just narrowly managing to not release the Human Face Disease.

Yesterday, Xie Lian had managed to get his hands on a straw mat through collecting scraps in a nearby village. What had followed was a battle of politeness with both Xie Lian and Wu Ming insisting that the other sleep on the mat, before Xie Lian finally suggested that they share it.

Xie Lian turns over, and is surprised to see Wu Ming is still asleep. Usually, the ghost will go to sleep after Xie Lian, and wake up before him. What's more surprising, though, is that Wu Ming's face is bereft of his mask. Xie Lian has caught glimpses of Wu Ming's face before, whenever he would lift up the mask to eat, or remove it to bathe, but he's never had a chance to properly admire his companion's face.

It's a very lovely face.

Wu Ming stirs, mumbling something under his breath. Xie Lian can just barely make out his own title amidst the jumble of words.

"Wu Ming? Are you awake?"

"Dianxia needs... more jewelry," the ghost mutters.

"Jewelry?"

"For the... ceremony."

Xie Lian can't keep his lips from quirking up into a smile. "Wu Ming, I think you're dreaming."

"Mnngh... dianxia... g'mornin"

Wu Ming doesn't open his eyes, but he does stretch, much like a cat. Then, he leans forward, pressing his lips against Xie Lian's in a sloppy kiss.

Xie Lian goes still.

A moment later, Wu Ming also goes still. Then, the ghost jerks away, hiding his face behind both hands. "Dianxia... please forgive this one."

Xie Lian is still a little in shock. He's never experience anything like that before. "Ah, it's... it's fine."

Just what was Wu Ming dreaming about?!

I've been thinking of a soulmates style au wherein hualian discover they are soulmates after XL saves HC as a child.

In this AU meeting your soulmate is incredibly rare and very auspicious, so even though HC is a commoner he is recognized as XL's future spouse and taken into the care of the royal family, but sequestered away from XL to maintain decorum. They see each other now and again, and interact during events and gatherings, but otherwise are kept separated. HC is delighted and pines and generally dreams of the day he gets to officially marry XL and be his wife.

(I like to personally use the term 'wife' in danmei specifically to mean 'the spouse that marries into the home of the other', so as he is marrying into XL's home, he would be the bride in this scenario.)

XL ascends, as in canon. Unlike in canon, when a soulmate ascends, so too does your soulmate, and HC ascends with XL.

XL also descends and falls from godhood, as in canon. Ever so magnanimous, JW ~kindly~ allows HC to stay in heaven upon XL's request, as HC didn't break any rules. HC is, however, bound to the heavens, unable to descend to seek out XL.

Centuries pass, and HC becomes known as a God of constancy, faithfulness, and marriage. He is regarded with both awe and pity. Poor HC, who remains loyal to a faithless god of misfortune. Isn't it incredible, how much he is willing and able to endure to uphold the sanctity of his marriage vows? He has a large faction of worshippers, mostly brides and wives in arranged, unhappy marriages, who pray to him for strength.

Few, if any, remember that Xianle fell before HC had the chance to marry XL. That all this time he has remained steadfast and true to his fiancé, rather than his husband. The gods that do look upon him with scorn and judgment. No one expects him to remain loyal to the likes of XL, so who does he think he is putting on this show for?

It doesn't matter what those gods, or even what his worshippers think of him, however. HC is loyal to XL out of love, and devotion. He is not suffering out of obligation. His only pain is that felt by his fiancé, and the pain of separation forced upon him.

And despite what the gods and his worshippers assume, he is not a long-suffering bride who sits and pines for his beloved. While he yearns for the day he can reunite with XL, HC spends his time playing the long-con. After all, is the keeping of house and home not one of the primary roles of any good wife? And the heavens are so steeped in filth. Certainly not worthy of his husband to be.

As for XL, he strives and toils to regain his godhood under the weight of his lost worshippers and the scorn of the gods who once praised him.

More than that, he worries, often, about HC, and his misplaced loyalty. Every now and then XL hears another tale of HC's endless, unshakeable loyalty, but with those tales also come stories of that devotion being nothing more than a shackle. Nothing is ever said of HC's love for his husband, or HC's happiness, only his impressive endurance in the face of obligation to a worthless husband. XL fears that HC is little more than a long suffering would-be bride, held back by XL's mistakes and the fate that bound them together without either of their say.

So XL does his best to regain his godhood, so that he may re-enter heaven and finally free HC from himself for good.

When, after 800 years, XL finally ascends once again, nothing is as he had expected it to be. There is a crowd, but no one is casting judgment or disparaging him. Instead, it seems as though he has ascended amidst the start of a lavish celebration.

As XL stands amidst a sea of joyful revelry, a procession slowly makes its way towards him, and at its end, a bridal sedan.

When the sedan stops before him and a hand moves aside its curtain, XL reaches out to grasp it without thinking. Gently, he leads the bride off of the sedan and onto solid ground.

XL looks up at a veil of opaque crimson silk. He cannot see the face behind it, does not even know, after all this time, what HC would even look like... But in this moment he knows, unquestionably, that this is not just any bride, but his bride.

Part of XL recalls that one of his main reasons to rise to godhood again was to let HC go, to finally allow him freedom from the weight of being tethered to someone like XL. And yet, any thoughts of breaking his vows to HC dry up in his mouth. He has thought of so many ways to say it, so many ways to cut HC loose of him without bringing HC any more pain, but he cannot bring himself to say any of them.

The hand in his grasp turns, and laces their fingers together. His bride's hand is strong, XL observes as though from a distance, unflinching and sure.

"Hello, gege," HC says. His voice is deeper than XL remembers, richer and more vibrant than anything he has experienced for decades, if not centuries. 

"Ah, San Lang, I'm sorry, " he manages to force out through his shock. His laugh is pitchy and uneven even to his own ears. "I'm afraid I'm not quite prepared...!"

"It's okay, gege." A thumb carasses his knuckles tenderly, and XL's throat tightens. "I already have everything ready for us."

GOD THEY are so DOMESTIC?!?!? Theyre so married couple coded?!?!? THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE

[happypeachsludgeflower]

People are always giving Hua Cheng shit that he proposed to Xie Lian and then immediately took it back, claiming it was a joke, thereby postponing his own wedding but, hear me out, he’s gay guys. He can’t math. Leave the man alone. Two plus two equals purple and this poor man doesn’t understand the passage of time because there’s counting involved.

[the-slow-unravel-of-stars]

How do I subtly ask if my crush likes me…?

Hua Cheng: Gege, wanna get married?

Too obvious!!

Hua Cheng: JUST KIDDING!

Xie Lian, flustered, about to say yes: y…uhhhh oh right, good joke, hahahahaha
