Chinese hanfu of moon goddess chang'e嫦娥 who lives in guanghangong广寒宫/ guanghan palace (meaning the cold and spacious palace) on the moon. The styling and makeup are often inspired by the chang'e from the costume drama journey to the west (1986 version) and referenced classic chinese paintings. Chang'e flying to the moon is a household story in china. That's why China named its lunar probe series chang'e.

In addtition to chang'e, the looks of yutu玉兔/jade rabbit and guihuajing桂花精/sweet osmanthus spirit are also popular choices for chinese hanfu on mid-autumn festival. Jade rabbit is the pet of chang'e who makes 长生不老药chang sheng bu lao yao/elixir by grinding and smashing herbs every day, and if one takes the elixir, one'll live forever and become immortal (that's the story of yu tu dao yao玉兔捣药/jade rabbit grinding herbs). And guihuajing/sweet osmanthus spirit involves another story about the moon, wu gang fa gui吴刚伐桂/wu gang chopping osmanthus tree.

Wu Gang is a man who wants to learn the secret of immortality but doesn't want to put in the effort. His laziness angers the Jade Emperor, who punishes him by sending him to the moon palace to cut down the osmanthus tree every day, and he can go back to the earthly world when he's finished. It turns out that every time he cuts down the tree, the osmanthus tree automatically recovers its original shape, so wu gang's work will never be finished. According to the story, he cuts down the tree to this day, as a neighbor of chang'e. So his desire to live immortal was realized in an outrageous way lmao (the wisdom of jade emperor). However the chinese myths never says how wu gang and chang'e were related or how they get along, if they ever chatted or anything like that. We only know they are neighbors.

It's funny that no one has ever dressed up as wu gang on the zhongqiu/Mid-Autumn Festival, probably because he doesn't have a specific image or people think he is nobody and don't care about him, and I think it would be especially fun if someone dressed up as a wu gang standing next to chang'e holding an axe as her bodyguard.

In short, yutu and guihuajing are often represented with elements of bunny, osmanthus flowers, and mooncakes respectively, and the colors are usually sunrise orange or bright yellow, many with a distinct xianxia仙侠 style. There are also some historical styles as well.

#There's something to be said #For not rushing into Christmas in November #But enjoying the end of the autumn and the beginning of winter #Watching the dark half of the year roll in #And remembering why a mid winter festival was so important to us in the first place #my photgraphy #landscape photography #photooftheday #photography

So, lesson learned: the calico eggs from the calico festival don't get saved after it ends and hence can't be used next year, I just spent 3 days mostly in the caves earning a currency I didn't end up spending 🙃 (150+whatever the adventure guy would've given me for gathering like 10+ eggs in the caves on the last day)

#On a good note I FINALLY realized what the whole luck deal is about #Mid spring year 2 #F to me for fishing and going to the caves and stuff with the unluckiest spirits debuff 🫡#Honestly knowing about this is a life changer it never clicked for me why sometimes I get insane loot and sometimes... Coal #I realized by going on the best luck one day&a mob dropped that insane cave candy thing #+mining+defence+attack #And most importantly +luck #Honestly I was waiting for the game to tell the mechanic through tv or a book at this point #Svtag #On another good note the festival was fun I'll just focus much less on the caves next time #The food mechanic is very fun #I'll probably just use the luck food to farm omni geodes #(Which is the only thing I did semi right on this festival I have like 30 of them)#But yeah I'm not going to the mines right now

Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Pei Ming & Shi Qingxuan, Jun Wu & Shi Qingxuan Characters: Pei Ming (Tian Guan Ci Fu), Shi Qingxuan, Jun Wu (Tian Guan Ci Fu) Additional Tags: and other heavenly official npcs, Mid Autumn Festival, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff, sqx is a tsundere, sqx is also jun wu's favorite daughter, in a way that is not worrying, probably, Protective SQX, Pei Ming's Backstory Summary:

“Me again? How does this keep happening?”

It's tradition at this point for Pei Ming’s salacious tales to be featured in the Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet, and he downs the wine in a single gulp to great applause. The curtain can’t rise faster than the anticipatory whispers, as everyone wonders what sort of stage they’ll find the general on this year. A palace? A brothel? Maybe an enchanted forest?

They get a battlefield.

While trying to write a different kind of Pei Ming h/c fic, I remembered this draft exists and decided to clean it up and post it ;w;

I hope you enjoy! <3

#admittedly its mainly because i really liked the sqx & jw dynamic in this one #yes really #idk how to explain but i just want to write more of jw interacting with the gods during the 800 year skip #i want him sinister but i also want him to be the heavenly emperor everyone looks up to #tgcf #tian guan ci fu #heaven official's blessing #fortune's fanfics #pei ming #shi qingxuan #jun wu #peixuan #but ALSO i like writing pei ming & sqx fighting for performance as much as actual #and the mid autumn festival plays really are such a good way to force a character to suffer a little #and i am resigned to the fact that if i want pm & sqx content i need to make my own food ;w;

Thinking abt my dst swap au again it's so messed up that I can't just talk about hypothetical character kits 24/7 and actually have to make a plot that some characters are more or less relevant in because all I wanna do is talk about Wilba and Wortox kits cause they're silly goofy goobers

#rat rambles #starve posting #they are swapped with eachother btw #wilba's kit is much Much more krampus themed than wortox (which is a low bar since he had no krampus stuff but still dhdndgd)#basically her whole kit is built around her being klaus's daughter #she is completely immune to the negative effects of a hight naughty meter and gets a free present each winter as her passives #and she has her own crafting station which is her lil tinkerers table where she can craft some festive themed items and deer stuff #she can have up to two gem infused deer followers at a time and other deer dont run from her #I do think itd be kind of fun to give her an enraged form too to mirror her werepig form in canon but idk it might be a bit much #also when she does fight klaus the amount of krampus summoned mid fight increases based on her highest amount of naughty points that year #the main reason this matters is that due to her being spoiled by her dad she cant rly do krampus farming by herself #but this is somewhat balanced by the fact that once she gets one she can tinker with it at her crafting station and unlock a recipe #so this both acts as her dad punishing her for fighting him and as a way to make it a smidge easier to get that initial krampus sack #as for wortox hes kind of two characters built into one #but both are simpler since hes now a og ds dlc character (although tbf current in game wortox is even simpler but thats due to change)#theres normal piggy wortox who has fun criminal gimics and during the aporkalypse he gets sorta possesed ~oooo~#outside of the aporkalypse hes attacked on sight by guards but passively has the theiving hat effect and it can further stack with the hat #he also can craft a lock picker to break into shops at night and a thieves sack which is like a krampus sack but held in the hand slot #he also wont be stolen from by other theives and can in fact trade with them for thieves stash maps #during the aporkalypse most enemies will become passive towards him and if he kills the he becomes the total ruller of all pigs #he can extort shops for whatever resources he wants and can kill or steal from whoever #but he has a pretty constant heavy negative sanity drain and lower max stats in general #also the chaos herald is still a potential issue although it wont immediately agro onto wortox #oh but if the aporkalyse is ended then his kingly status is revoked as the being that is seen as the ruler is no longer possesing wortox #I just thought that it was odd that no one in the hamlet dlc was given any aporkalypse related gimmics considering its so easy to ignore #I think itd be fun to have a character that incentivices engaging with it more even if its a risk to do so

I wanna buy a nice Chinese tea set but now I just gotta convince my cousins to do tea parties with me. Like, could I have cha time by myself? Yea obviously. But it's a 10000x more fun if I get everybody to dress up nice and drink tea with me.

#plus i bought a hanfu a couple years ago for an event and i need an excuse to wear it again #double plus i just bought a bunch of nice loose leaf teas #triple plus i was really busy with council work and totally missed mid autum festival and i feel guilty about it :(
