love this post. mwah

now here's each of these assigned to an nxx boy

first -> vyn. he is literally a mental health professional and so he'd know the vocabulary of his issues and how to tackle it. the only thing holding him back is the fact that he'd be very averse to showing any kind of vulnerability, weakness, or fault. so he'd be like

vyn: i am aware i have problems and i know what they are, as well as how to treat them. nobody else has to know this though.

second -> artem. he is a self-aware and intelligent man who would be able to realize that there are Signs but he would also be more susceptible to frustration on how to actually handle it, partly also because of an aversion to showing Wrongness. so he'd be like

artem: i sense i have symptoms but i don't know how to deal with them. perhaps i can put this off...indefinitely.

third -> luke. mister repression avoidant liar extraordinaire!!! he will ACTIVELY push people away and belittle his struggles, like it's not a big deal and he'll get over it! he likely wouldnt be too aggressive (it'll be more likely that he smacks a strained smile on his face instead) but he would be incredibly beat-around-the-bush-y and averse to anybody getting close to him while he's going through Whatever It Is He's Going Through. so he'd be like

luke: it's fine! i'm fine! this is nothing, i'll get over it! wanna go grab a burger? :D

fourth -> marius. NOW WE'RE TALKING. i'm not saying he's stupid, i'm saying he's so deep down in denial that it doesn't even occur to him that he might have problems. like it doesnt even compute for him. he doesnt have to vocabulary for what he's going through because he, in the first place, doesnt even believe theres anything wrong. so he'd be like

marius: haha yeah when i'm stuck in a cold dark location i like toooootally zone out and like, breathe all weird, then brain totally shuts off, all empty. same thing happens when people bring up mom or how long giann's been gone, haha. it's just. it's Funky Time. things get Funky. wdym it's a problem? it goes away pretty quickly and becomes Empty Time! and it feels pretty swimmy for a while but hey, at least i'm able to get some work done once the Empty Time hits. haha

vyn: good lord

artem: i...i don't think thats a regular response

luke: man even i can tell that's a problem. and that's rich, coming from me.

marius: it's not! it's---it's funny! guys, you can laugh, you know? uh. please laugh....please?

[theclementinediaries]

The Seven Deadly Sins of the NXX Team

➵ PRIDE best describes Artem, for he takes great pride in everything he does, especially when it comes to work. He would go above and beyond, and would go to great lengths, to ensure that he is always on top of his game. His work is his pride, and his pride is his work, his entire sense of self-worth relies heavily on how well he manages to do his job right.

➵ He has a reputation of having a 99% win rate, so you could imagine how much his pride suffered when he lost in that 1% case. He felt like a failure, like everything that he has worked up to until that point, all of his achievements and success, meant nothing. And for someone, who puts so much value in his career, his success, whose pride mainly stems from his achievements and winning, that really put a dent on not just his pride, but his self worth in general.

➵ Who is he, if not a winner? Who is he, if not the best of the best? Who is he, if he can’t succeed? Would there be any point for his existence if he can’t succeeded, if he can’t become the greatest?

➵ Ultimately, Artem’s pride is his biggest motivator to do better, to be better, but it’s also what eats him up inside, it’s what pushes him over the edge, to the point that it’s hurting him.

➵ Green is the color of ENVY, and that perfectly describes Vyn to a T. Don't get him wrong though, he is not envious of someone having more money, fame, status, or materialistic items than him, far from it actually. Vyn's envy is rooted in seeing people, who have a more full filing happier life than him, especially if they are less fortunate than him.

➵ Of course, as a psychologist expert, he bares no ill well towards people who have it better than him, and on the contrary, he should be happy for those people given his profession. But yet no matter how much he tries not to, he can't help but feel envious of those people, like he resented them for having a life that he fought so hard to obtain, yet it came so natural to them.

➵ His jealousy and envy is one of the reasons why he's so meticulous with his words, never letting anyone ever get too close, for fear that he might uncover something, that he might not like.

➵ For someone who is so happy go-lucky, WRATH really does have a strong hold on Luke. But don't get it twisted, Luke is not angry at anyone at particular, more specifically so, his wrath is directed at himself.

➵ He is so angry at himself, for not being strong enough, for not being good enough, for not being smart enough, but most of all, his angry at himself for not being there for you when you needed him the most.

➵ The anger and wrath that he feels is mostly fueled due to his own shortcomings and inadequacies, and how he expresses that anger is by acting so recklessly, throwing himself into danger, sacrificing himself, again and again. He hopes that his self-sacrifice would compensate for all his failures and shortcomings, he hopes that him throwing his life away would make up the fact that he failed to protect you, failed to give you more time, failed...you.

➵ And most of all, he hopes that his self-sacrifice would help lessen the wrath inside his heart, but it never does, in fact, it only seems to ignite it further.

➵ Now this might sound predictable from the infamous playboy himself, but Marius, is driven by LUST. He likes to indulge in the pleasures of life, whether that be sexual or not, it doesn't really matter to him.

➵ For so long, Marius wanted nothing more than to be free, to live the life that he so desperately wants, and to have the freedom to make the choices that he wants. Those are his deepest desires that he lust for the most.

➵ But sadly, no matter how much Marius lusts over a life of freedom, no matter how many times he wished to indulge in a pleasurable life that not even money can buy, the universe doesn't always give us what we want.

➵ So all Marius has left is to fulfill other people's hopes and dreams, fulfilling other people desires and lust, in hopes that, that would be enough to fill the empty whole inside his heart.

Zhengxi and Guanshan snippet

This takes place during Jian Yi and He Tian's absence in highschool. It's an unattached scene, where I have a poke at Zhengxi's character as an ace/demi gay guy:

High school is about dating and experimenting and Zhengxi gets his fair share in, just by dent of being there. 

Towards the end of second year he settles enough to become slightly approachable. He has his first kiss with a girl from Band and it’s fine. Kissing is nice, sort of, or okay anyway. She's a good friend, so when she asks to go out he agrees. Why not? 

Hanging out is good, sharing interests, holding hands. Kissing is fine too, if not terribly exciting, but the groping is less so. It makes him feel cold and unreal and like he’s outside of his own body. Sex is absolutely off the table, so she breaks up with him after six weeks. It's fine. He feels fine about it and they stay good friends. A couple of other girls have a go at him, but he’s better at turning them down before anyone gets unrealistic expectations.

By contrast, the one time he and Guanshan have a drunk-tired makeout session, it’s fucking hot. It’s just kissing, but holy shit! Rolling around on the floor, pinning each other down, thighs slotted between legs, hard planes and soft skin – Zhengxi is fucking flying. 

They only do it the once and don’t ever have a go at trying anything more. They work well as friends because their taciturn natures match and their sudden explosive tempers and low tolerance for other people’s nonsense keep things fun. But it’s pretty obvious that they’re both too emotionally blocked and aggressively temperamental to get involved romantically. 

The experience does make him wonder, not least when he catches himself zoned out staring at lips and arses. It’s kind of a giant pointer that he might be more attracted to guys after all, no matter how studiously he avoids thinking about Jian Yi these days. In the end he settles on just not thinking about it whenever possible. He isn’t interested in dating anyway. He’s not attracted to other people in that way. 

Guanshan gets around though. He has this wild reckless side to him that craves some kind of hard tether, like a live wire that needs to go to ground. The grounding takes the shape of drunken hookups and it seems to work for him, although Zhengxi has his reservations sometimes. It seems like more of a pressure valve thing than an actual working solution, but what Guanshan is looking for won’t be available as long as the spectre of He Tian is still messing with his heart. Not that Guanshan will admit to anything of the kind.

Zhengxi conveniently avoids making any comparisons to his own situation.

Boo! Did I Scare you? - with the nxx

by someone who gets scared very easily

let's set the scene: someone standing by the corner of a wall, obstructed from the view. another person is coming! quick, get in position to pop out and scare them!

vyn - very unfazed outwardly. did flinch and took a step back, but what are you talking about? he was merely waiting for the person to pop out any moment. afraid, him? why would he be? oiger didn't snap their neck, they're not a threat and he wasn't surprised they were there lol

artem - full on jumps. probably let out a yelp but they're not sure? honestly, they almost missed their queue to scare him bc he's that good at sneaking around. 50% chance you made him drop his coffee. now he's sad, buy him a coffee :C

marius - very very very prolonged scream. a little high-pitched if we're being honest. even after seeing the culprit, he will keep screaming. congrats, you are now the center of attention for making Marius von Hagen scream

luke - one of two: he doesn't jump. he's acutely aware of his surroundings and will force himself to jump just to humor the person scaring him. no one catches luke 'hypervigilance' peace off guard enough to scare him. if, by some miracle, he was actually caught off guard? punch to the face guaranteed. they're gonna walk away feeling something regardless lolol

[ronoro1]

Professor. Richter stop looking in your bloody broken mirror reflection, you are scaring the kids!

[rejectedfables]

t4t xuexiao where Xiao Xingchen came down the mountain and was immediately told that being trans is WEIRD and RARE and he shouldn't let ANYONE KNOW HE'S TRANS, and then years later he ends up in bed with Xue Yang, who is also trans, and is like "Hang on, you mean it's NOT that rare, and people are just shamed into secrecy so we all think we're alone?" Xue Yang like "Yeah pretty much." Xingchen like "You mean I could have been having gay sex thiS WHOLE TIME"

[dreamerinthemoonlight]

It would be so fun to go to stuff like orchestra concerts, operas, and ballets with Vyn. And I'd try to drag him to drum core shows I think that would be a new experience for him.

But still, I think he's the only one of the nxx men who can really, truly share that interest

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Marius

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Being part of a prominent family, his Halloweens are usually filled with endless parties...whether he's attending or hosting

Definitely goes all-out in every aspect of hosted bashes, but most noteworthy are Marius's costumes...he designs them himself every year

Used to go pumpkin carving with Giann every year until he turned 12, has since resumed the tradition with Payton, Rosa and Artem

Provided everyone with costumes for the NXX Halloween party, was primarily responsible for decorations

Vyn

A Halloween tradition of his is to pick a country on the map and immerse himself in their local legends and folklore the entire month

Makes Halloween-themed desserts to share with his patients, keeps a notebook with recipes given to him by the NXX members and Ogier

The type to try out various rituals the evening of Halloween to prove they don't work...but carries around protective charms in case they do

[thatlesbeanjew]

This is so very niche but @colloquialcolival and I were throwing MDZS and Redacted Characters into a mixing bowl.

What came out was their idea of Sam, Quinn, and Darlin as the Yi City Trio - SongXueXiao. Darlin XXC, Sam SL, and Quinn XY

I’m not going to recover. I’ve been damaged emotional and will suffer a slow and painful death.

the nxx boys buying pads for rosa

-

artem

gets overwhelmed by all the types and kinds of pads in the pads aisle and immediately calls celestine for help. celestine laughs at him for 30 seconds minimum before walking him through which to get

-

vyn

calmly and directly texts rosa to ask which brand and type she prefers. he's the one who manages to get back to her with the right pads with the shortest waiting time

-

luke

has bought pads for rosa several times already in the past due to their childhood together so he knows which ones to get already. but he also does text her this:

luke: it's sucks so bad that you have to have periods

rosa: i know but i dont need your guilt right now i need pads

luke: it's just. it's so unfair

rosa: i know sherlock but. time sensitive. pads. need them. now

-

marius

texts rosa "what size pussy do you wear?"

[layzeal]

one of my favorite headcanons with little to no canon support is that xue yang and mo xuanyu were guidao jin disciples at the same time, and mxy mentioned a few times wanting to ressurect the yiling laozu to kill his mom's evil family, so when xy saw him (or rather his body) entering yi city AS the yllz, he was like "son of a bitch he actually did it"

[dntclosemt]

Definitely He Tian i think it fits him more

[thatswhatsushesaid]

1, 6, 22, 23?

1. "the character everyone gets wrong"

the obvious answer is jgy, but I have also written so extensively about jgy's characterization that I'm reasonably sure I don't have to repeat myself here. so I'll go with the other character whose characterization frequently leaves me wanting to chew glass when I check the tags, and that's nie huaisang

I know part of this can be blamed on medium bleed (and fatal journey but lol we do not talk about fatal journey here), but I think the common characterization of nie huaisang that I see in the tags and in fic as 1) some laser-focused mastermind crouching at the centre of a spider web pulling literally all of the narrative strings from the very beginning in order to achieve his revenge, and/or 2) as helpless babie incapable of doing any schemes or any crimes until he was so moved by nmj's death that he just selflessly sacrificed over a decade of his life in pursuit of justice, justice for da-ge!!! and neither of these bland-ass takes are interesting or particularly consistent with the novel or with what we see in cql, tbh.

characterization #1 is harder for me to prove definitively, at least right now, so let's just call it a hard headcanon that he is not this genius schemer and move on for now. (I'm working on a longer Thing for nhs and trauma in my drafts, but it's not done yet, so /waves hands, watch this space)

it's easier for me to point to clear textual and visual evidence of why characterization #2 doesn't hold up under close scrutiny just because wwx lays out so much of it for us during his scooby doo murder mystery postmortem interrogation of wwx after jgy and nmj have been sealed together in the crypt. everything that nhs does to trigger jgy's 'killing intent,' to use wwx's own words (the law in most countries calls this 'entrapment,' btw, and it is illegal, but I digress), involves unnecessary collateral damage, and I say 'unnecessary' because there is no one holding a cursed murder sword to nhs's head forcing him to take any of these actions. he could just not do any of them at any point, and go on living his life, but he doesn't. and what he does do is manipulate mxy into utilizing the sacrifice summon ritual to bring wwx back from the dead to murder the entire mo family; he does the thing that I PERSONALLY had the most difficulty dealing with as a reader sensitive to animal death, which was kill a bunch of cats to lure wwx, lwj, and the junior quartet to yi city; he is the one who ensures that the knowledge of jgy and qin su's relation to each other reaches qin su without any regard to how learning this information would impact her psychologically; and he is perfectly comfortable using lxc as his last-minute, convenient tool to kill jgy when it seems otherwise inevitable to him that jgy will walk out of the temple alive.

all of this 👆👆👆 is not the sort of thing that someone does if they are pursuing justice. nhs wants vengeance, and I am fine with that being his character's driving motivation, I have no problem with that story. I would just very much prefer it if this fandom would treat his revenge quest specifically as that--a revenge quest--and then engage with what the actual, concrete consequences of realizing that revenge quest are for nhs in canon. in short: nmj is not at peace; the one person in his life who had made some attempt to understand him, care for him, and advocate on his behalf to nmj, is now dead, because he killed him; nmj's remaining sworn brother will certainly not be stepping up to provide him assistance as nie-zongzhu or xiandu from seclusion; and none of his remaining friends from childhood trust him. post-canon nhs, whether sauntering away from the guanyin temple as he does in the novel, or trudging away with a thousand-yard shellshocked stare on his face as he does in the drama, essentially has his san-ge's bloody hat for company henceforth, and that's it. that's depressing, and lonely.

6. "which ship fans are the most annoying?"

wangxian lol at least on tumblr. x!cheng as a ship drives me nuts and I can't stand it, but x!cheng shippers themselves are fine. honestly it's just the wangxian fans that make me want to blacklist the ship altogether.

22. "your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores"

huh! I don't know that I have one that my little corner of the fandom doesn't pay attention to? I suppose something I wish we speculated on more in the form of fic or art or w/e is meng yao's time in qishan with wen ruohan, because I am crawling up the walls in my eagerness to know how meng yao became the only person able to approach wen ruohan's throne not on his knees. I want to know how meng yao becomes someone wen ruohan actively wants to protect from harm in that final nightless city confrontation between him and nie mingjue, while meng yao is actively undermining his battlefield advantages through sending intelligence to lxc.

I just have so many questions!!

23. "ship you've unwillingly come around to"

I don't think it is fair to say that I have 'come around' to this particular ship because I still very much do not like 99.9% of fic and art that feature it, but I read one romantic 3zun fic rec'd to me by @poorlittleyaoyao that absolutely left me in emotional tatters. but that's it, that was ONE fic, and I think I mainly vibed with it so hard because the principle romance at work was xiyao. but even the n!eyao still left me feeling "oh 🥺" which I for sure was not expecting lmao.

edit: mea culpa @thymianne !! the fic is called 'favor' by venndaai (aka henshengs here on tumblr), and it is a hunger games AU that leans extremely hard into all of the messy, ugly feelings and actions that you would expect from a hunger games AU. you will absolutely suffer! enjoy it.

Are there still people who like to swap characters (such as active for passive, and passive for active?) Or am I the only one?

Fanon-Headcanon MDZS. The Founder of Diabolism( Mo Dao Zu Shi)

In my canon, Mo Xuanyu was not loved not only for his sexuality and makeup, but also for his appearance itself, since he was literally a copy of Wei Wuxian, only 3 centimeters shorter.

During the siege of Mount Luanzang, Wei Ying's body was left behind. The head of the order, Jian, lied to the other heads, telling them that there was nothing left of Elder Yiling,that he was torn to pieces by his own soldiers. Jiang Cheng sealed Wei Ying's body in a crypt so that no one would find him, and the dark energy sealed in his body would not break out. (Nothing happened to his body for 13 years (most likely due to dark energy), approximately the same as in the system).

The beginning of the story begins the same way as the original before the city of Yi. ((Backstory) Xue Yang traveled through some unknown mountains trying to restore the soul of Xiao Xingchen, feeling a very strong dark energy, going to her he discovered a hidden overgrown, abandoned crypt that was completely covered with protective talismans. In short, he took Wei Wuxian’s body.).Xue Yang came up with many new techniques (using the Stygian Tiger Seal) such as transferring souls. After Wei Wuxian returned to his real body, complete madness began to happen.

Есть ещё люди которые любят менять местами персонажей (типа актива на пассива, а пассива на актива ?) Или я одна такая ?

Фанон-Хедканон MDZS. Магистр дьявольского культа (Основатель тёмного пити)

В моё каноне Мо Сюаньюя не любили не только за его ориентацию, и макияж но и за саму внешность, так как он был буквально копия Вэй Усянь , только на 3 сантиметра ниже.

Во время осады горы Луаньцзан от Вэй Ина осталась тело. Глава ордена Цзянь соврал другим главам сказав им что от Старейшины Илин ничего не осталась, что он был разорван на части своими же солдатами. Цзян Чэн запечатал тело Вэй Ина в склепе чтобы его никто не нашел, и темная энергия запечатанная в его теле не вырвалась наружу. ( С его телом за 13 лет ничего не произошло (скорее всего из-за темной энергии), примерно также как в системе ).

Начало истории начинается также как и оригинал до города И. ((Предыстория) Сюэ Ян путешествовал по каким-то неизвестным горам пытаясь восстановить душу Сяо Синчэня, почувствовав очень сильную темную энергию пойдя к ней он обнаружил скрытый заросший, заброшенный склеп, который был весь обклеен защитными талисманами. Короче он забрал тело Вэй Усяня.). Сюэ Ян придумал много новых техник (с помощью стигийской тигриной печати) например перемещение душ. После того как Вэй Усянь вернулся в свое настоящие тело начало происходит, полное безумие.

n, o, t, z for the fandom ask game 😁

n: Name three things you wish you saw more of in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice).

this question had me think for a bit, im mostly content with whats going on in the fandoms i participate in, buuuuuuuuuuut then i recalled:

1) i once watched a video essay on ning yi that really impressed me. (i just searched the internet up and down to link it but i cant!!! find it!!!! whatt iisss thissss) anyway, i want more of that!!! for rise of pheonixes fandom, but also for WOH and for TYK!!! i neeeeeeeeEEEed it

2) generally more academic-approached textanalysis for tian ya ke. im dYING to read something like that!

3) for the fics i would like to request MESSINESS in regards to zhou zishu and wen kexing respectfully, thank u (BONUS IF THEY HAVE AFFAIRS ON THE SIDE OR SLEEP AROUND)

o: Choose a song at random. Which ship or character does it remind you of?

i threw a dart and it landed on this which reminds me of wen kexing in that moment in the novel when hes gearing up to slaughter mo huaiyang and hes all exhausted and bleeding but he needs to avenge his a-xiang‘s silly little husband. (i lied i dont have darts. i clicked next in my epic orchestral music playlist and this is what showed up.)

(while im typing this this started playing and now im thinking about elizabeth swan ,, ,,,, im so gay)

t: Do you have any hard and fast headcanons that you will die defending? 

the headcanon i told u last night, about zzs and ljx! i dare u to reread qiye!!! come fight meeeeeeee!!!!!

z: Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go! (Prompts optional but encouraged.)

UM. ive always been very passionate about fictional characters and fictional worlds. when we were kids i would share comics with my brother and we would read them together, when i grew out of my childhood books my sister inherited them and grew to love them just as much as i do. my mom is not a tokio hotel fan per se, and she doesnt watch the same shows or read the same books as me, but we tell each other what we are currently invested in and she loves seeing what i create. fandom can looks like anything, it can be small and offline and familiar and private like what i just described, or it can be subscribing to magazines and read the fan theories and fan letters that are published in it. it can be organizing big events like conventions and forge a bridge between fans and the source material. it can be a community on social media like here on tumblr. but its in its essence all the same, people—sometimes literal strangers— forming connections to eachother simply because they are all in some way moved by the same thing, generating new thought and creativity everyday and cultivating a culture of communication and cultural exchange, entirely seperate from our capitalist society, and i think thats really beautiful
