Reversed Tales AU! We have here Calamity!Shi Qingxuan and his brother Shi Wudu

Shi Wudu wasn't able to find the Fate Switch Spell in time and the Reverend had found his brother who ends up going missing before Shi Wudu found his body.

Distraught he was ready to follow when a small ghost fire with his brothers voice came to him.

Shi Wudu is even more feared in the heavens and earth, no enemies can touch him figuratively and literally. Any attempts made on him were deemed useless almost as if he has an invisible protector. He had no allies only envious enemies.

any plans made fail before coming to fruition, almost as if someone had heard them and made them come apart.

Many believe its the younger Shi protecting the older one, but was dismissed.

Surely the gods would know if there was a ghost amongst them?

Feng Xin: I don’t know what to say at funerals. It’s always so uncomfortable

Mu Qing: Just say “I’m sorry for your loss,” then move on. It's not that hard

*Later, at a funeral*

Feng Xin: I’m sorry for your loss. Move on. It's not that hard.

Xie Lian, *beside him, alarmed*: ... What? Feng Xin, no that’s not-

Mu Qing: *clutching his stomach from laughing so hard*

[muqingfx]

pei ming: I dare you to kiss the next person who walks into this room.

mu qing: Screw that, I’m not kissing any of you.

*feng xin walks in*

mu qing: Fine, I’ll do it. Rules are rules you know.

A redraw of a panel from the tgcf reverse au by @kimbapchan! I think this was when they were in the gambling house? But Xie Lian looked so pretty in this panel that I had to draw it uwu

I highly recommend checking out the comics! This AU is fantastic!

I'm not getting to writing out the story for this WIP this year or probably the next (too much other stuff going on) so I want to put this out there somehow.

My mental nickname for it is 'TGCF Vertical Reversal AU'.

Instead of the more 'traditional roleswaps' (God/Calamity) it switches the places of Xianle and Wuyong on the timeline.

Jun Wu, thrice ascended as a martial god, god of disasters and misfortune, god of broken things. Generally way more hissy and spiteful than Xie Lian in canon. Also not very good at hiding the fact that he is constantly five seconds away from losing it.

Mei Nianqing the ~mysterious~ ghost king, infamous for his cartomancy, knowledge of the future and ability to manipulate dreams and fate.

The three unnamed vassals as gods who ascended after breaking up with Jun Wu.

Xie Lian as the Heavenly Emperor, as kind as he is strong, and oh so fucking tired. Constantly trying to parent all the other gods. also he gets to have pet tigers because I said so.

Hua Cheng as the gambling-addict State Preceptor of Wuyong. Responsible for Jun Wu's first encounter with the possibility of death. Currently trying to avert Xie Lian's rube goldberg suicide attempt.

Fengqing as powerful weather spirits in the territory of Mount Taicang. Mu Qing, a snow spirit known as Greed and Feng Xin, a wind spirit known as Ignorance (Hua Cheng is Anger). The names are referring to the three sources of mental suffering, as counter to the sources of physical suffering- Birth, Death, Sickness and Old Age (MNQ + the three mountain spirits). Hua Cheng is the old man shouting at clouds.

Mount Taicang and Mount Tonglu also switch narrative roles.

Mount Tonglu as a spiritually significant place for the kingdom of Wuyong, and also the place where the royal tomb is- 'in the fire we were born, to the fire we return'.

Mount Taicang as the ghost king trial location, though it isn't a volcano- think more Shinsenkyo from Hell's Paradise, a forested mountain overgrown with flowers, swarming with deadly insects and strange beasts- vaguely inspired by the wording of 'Body in Abyss, Heart in Paradise', a place of overwhelming beauty seemingly designed to harm you in every possible way.

The actual plot of this is less 'Xie Lian trying to force Jun Wu to become his successor by putting him through the Horrors and revealing Heaven's corruption' and more 'Xie Lian trying to ensure there is someone reliable in place to take over when he finally gets to kill himself, and cleaning house as a side benefit'.

But here's the thing. The deal with Mount Taicang is that it's the place where Xie Lian has imprisoned all of the Worst Things Ever, and the wards will fail if he dies. His power is the only thing keeping the Heavens afloat and a dozen other things functioning. The world is falling apart at the seams and is being held together with Xie Lian's lifeforce as duct tape.

Xie Lian is so, so tired.

And well, it isn't like anyone would really care if he died.

Care about the real him.

So, he plans to pass on the duties of maintaining the functional state of the world and finally find his rest.

Then his favorite child comes in and starts trying to beat some self-worth and appreciation for life into him.

Then everyone else shows up, including his old friends and the one who his heart betrayed him for.

And in the end, one person is enough.

I am 100% down to talk about this stuff if anyone shows any interest!

KOSA IS BACK. REBLOG NOW, OR THIS MIGHT BE THE END OF FANDOM -- AND SAFE PLACES FOR LGBTQ PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/02/15/kids-online-safety-act-kosa-senate/

we can't let this happen. Oh no, oh no... quote a reblogger on my pinned post about this on my blog; "oh shit, the abomination has been reanimated". Indeed, while I'm a big fan of abominations, NOT THIS ONE. THIS IS THE MOST DISGUSTING ABOMINATION I'VE EVER SEEN. FANDOMS OF TUMBLR, UNITE.

I have come to the conclusion that in a Role Reversal AU with Ghost King Xie Lian and God Hua Cheng, the two fake Junior Officers must be Yin Yu and He Xuan. Yin Yu is trying to prove that Xie Lian is a Calamity and dragged He Xuan down in this mess to have some support but his plan was foiled by Xie Lian giving He Xuan something to snack on and now, he keeps asking for more food. Or he's dead, if Xie Lian was the one to cook it.

In the unlikely event that we ever get a very censored version of The Coffin Scene in the donghua wherein Xie Lian is just kind of socially anxious about being crammed in a sardine tin, I rest easy knowing that James Cheek and Howard Wang will come along later and turn Xie Lian's inner monologue into a flustered string of "What is happening? Is that...moving? No no no, not now not now!" and James will have just the right panicked hitch in his voice on "Don't move!" and all will be right with the world. 😇

Howdy y'all! this year i got to participate in the @tgcf-reverse-big-bang ! i got partnered up with TWO super amazing writers, who each made a fic based on this drawing here! (which you can also find on my twitter for better quality bc tumblr decided to chew it up for some reason)

you can find @jalpari 's fic in her promo tweet or on ao3

and you can find @fqrot 's fic in their promo tweet or on their ao3

if you can, please go show them some love bc the fics are so good, they both devoured, i fear!!

[yea-baiyi]

people on twitter are discoursing about whether xie lian’s chastity-based cultivation is a form of abuse (?????) which is so backward to me like huh???? yes jun wu’s thing about xie lian being a virgin is fucking creepy and weird and part of his overall obsession and desire to control him. but did they just completely miss the part where xie lian chose this method of cultivation bc the abstinence wasn’t an issue for him? he got hit by sex pollen and never once thought of sex? he didn’t even cultivate for 700 years and just never had sex because he never wanted to and as soon as he found a guy he wanted to fuck he just went for it? literally didn’t even pause to consider the cultivation thing at any point. if this were any other character it might have been used against him but the whole point is xie lian once again perfectly dodging jun wu’s manipulation attacks by just being a weird little guy with autism
