“To me, the one basking in infinite glory is you, the one fallen from grace is also you. What matters is you, and not the state of you.”

I believe Hua Cheng came to understand this after the fall of XianLe!

When Xie Lian saved Hong Hong er, he was still just a kid. He didn’t see Xie Lian as a person, but rather his prince or his god, and mainly his savior. This savior of his, in his eyes, was a light that couldn’t be extinguished, an invincible hero (which is expected from a little boy’s perspective). It’s after the fall of XianLe that Hua Cheng probably truly realizes that while his prince is still very much a light, his light, that light could absolutely dim. The illusion faded, and he finally realized: the crown prince of XianLe, the darling of the heavens, his highness who pleased the gods, and the one who saved him is not invincible. His god, now brutally exposed as Xie Lian, also needs protection.

Ghost fire Hua Cheng is when his motive was solidified, since.. he gently tells Xie Lian himself. I’m not a detective. But then “Wu Ming” comes along, and the fact that he sticks around while Xie Lian constantly berates him is the ultimate proof that Hua Cheng only sees Xie Lian now, whether he is a prince, a calamity, or an omen of misfortune. Seeing Xie Lian as “his savior” does not change through his growth, though. It only evolves into something deeper, “his beloved.”

but that’s just me idk

hua cheng being terrified of spiders (and xie lian accommodating him)

-hong hong-er spots a spider and screams. he remembers how his father had trapped him in a room with them, tied up and helpless. dozens of bites, poisons mixing in his blood—it's a truly terrifying memory. xie lian notices and carefully leads hong hong-er away, silently instructing for feng xin or mu qing to get rid of it.

-wu ming is startled. he tries to hide it, but he cant help inch aeay from the spider. scoffing when he sees this, xie lian steps on the spider cruelly and digs his foot in the ground.

-san lang tried to be cool. keyword: tried. he fails, retreats, and refuses to go into the shrine until xie lian brings the spider to the forest.

-hua cheng had a strict rule in ghost city: no spiders. xie lian was amused at this obvious weakness. he was less amused when bai wuxiang used it against him.

inspired by the spider that is now suffocating, ten feet away from my room.

Meta on the symbolism of the bamboo hat in tgcf

"Man in the abyss recieves a bamboo hat in rain"

While the simple act of receiving a bamboo hat illustriously reinstated xie lian's belief towards the prevalence of kindness leaping over the barbed fences of impending doom and essentially pulled him out of the harrowing chokehold of the abyss both metaphorically and literally, however when xie lian mirrored the same action towards jun wu, he seemed to have missed the boat with his inherent rejection of the heart being buoyant in the echelons of paradise even when the body is drilled into the deafening isolation of the abyss.

And it's interesting how the entire exchange of events of the final battle takes place on the desecrated heaven-crossing bridge that was originally designed to relocate the helpless and desperate to the safe hands of 'paradise'/heaven, yet the ones battling on its stairs (xie lian and mu qing) were restricted with cursed shackles infused with a reminder of their banishment, them being rejected by the gallant gates of heaven, nailing them to the 'abyss'. (Like isn't it ironic how jw constructed the bridge for his people to migrate to heaven yet, right now jw barred xl and mq from entering heaven bc he banished them and also voluntarily attempted to drown them into the /abyss/ bc the void beneath the bridge was saturated with resentful spirits inhabiting the scorching lava) Which is predominantly why xie lian's cursed shackles shattering on the same bridge is a symbolism of his ever-so anticipated liberation.

"Indomitable to the point he couldn't control his own powers, each step would shake the mountains. One step to go a thousand miles, one step to ascend to the heavens!"

On the ghastly intersection of lang-er bay, white-no-face pulled the sword out of xie lian, however that didn't relieve him of his resentment laced with pain or pull him out of the abyss; the bamboo hat did and it figuratively functioned as a catalyst to restore his (otherwise dissipating) faith in the amicability of humanness. On the heaven-crossing bridge however, xie lian never attempted to pull the sword out of jun wu, doing so wouldn't have reversed his pain that had morphed into dejection and vengeance culminating in his system for centuries, or introduced him to the compassion of humanness anew, instead xl gave him the bamboo hat.

"To ascend is human; to fall is also human". Xie lian covering jun wu with the bamboo hat that once restored his faith in humanity was ultimately washed away by the tides of futility, for jun wu's transcendence into destruction dehumanised him beyond repair as he ultimately fell. Jun wu never needed cursed shackles to restrain himself, his unceasingly vague sense of identity had trapped him into an echochamber of self-loathing and violence mirroring the barbaric slaughtering of ghosts trapped in the kiln of mount tong'lu, or the blunt shards of glasses bearing the monstrous image of his own reflection.

Xie lian didn't need an article such as a bamboo hat to hold onto as a reminder to not go astray anymore, he held onto that hat for centuries and with time he had to leave it behind with someone because now he had hua cheng by his side who'd always be the indestructible pillar of support for him to hold onto.

I'm currently trying to finish some of my long-form WIPs, but I just received two TGCF prompts that I'll work on once I do. Problem being, I'm indecisive �� So, to any folks out there who might be interested in TGCF fic...

[lasenbyphoenix]

@xcziel @rainvillage-trio @xiaogesword new poll is up! And if anyone else wants to be tagged when these polls release just let me know!

[csilla-nocturne]

This a rewrite of a thing I posted on twit a while ago, and wasn't sure if I should post it here, because I know A/B/O stuff can be real hit or miss with people. I'm still not sure how to tag this, so please let me know if there are any I need to add, so people can block it if they want, but anyway here we go.

Xie Lian is an omega with a very rare ability to pick up unique scents. basically as close as I can get to how I think scent might actually work in the animal kingdom. Everyone has their own scent to him that he can't describe to anyone else but it lets him know things like family relations, health, and even the moods of people around him. The ability is so rare there is no one else who can really understand what this is like for him, which could be a whole set of issues on its own when you think about it. I initially came up with the idea as a way Xie Lian would know Hong-er was the same kid he saved every time he ran into him, and that even a ghost with a human form will carry the same scent they did while alive. So he wouldn't know ghost fire Hong-er was Hong-er, but he would immediately recognize Wu Ming.

Then I realized Jun Wu would have no idea how to hide his scent from Xie Lian, and Bai Wuxiang would have the exact same scent! I had no idea where to go with this one after that.

19 and 21 for the book asks, if you are still doing them?

Absolutely!

19. Favorite old(er) book you read this year

I read a lot of public domain books in 2024 (thank you gutenberg!) And my very favorite was The Scarlet Pimpernel by Emma Orczy. I'm probably going to read it again this year, it was that good!

21. Best recommendation from a friend

Atlas recommended Golden Terrace by Cang Wu Bin Bai and it was great! 10/10 I enjoyed every minute from page 1 right to the extras. I love recommendations from my unhinged and feral mutuals, there are many more on the list for 2025 :3

It shouldn’t be a problem, even if Seung-ah and Do-gyeom have harbored secret feelings for each other for years.

Rival investigators Cui Buqu and Feng Xiao embark on a diplomatic journey westward, hoping to build a key alliance that will stand against the power-hungry Eastern Khaganate. But they get more than they bargained for when they stop to rest at the oasis city of Qiemo, where they find a haunted inn, a beleaguered Sui magistrate, and the city divided between two powerful self-styled rulers. Despite their larger mission, Cui Buqu has an audacious idea—one that will turn the city upside down and bring Qiemo back under Sui control if he succeeds. Even Feng Xiao must admit that, while Cui Buqu’s schemes are outrageous, there’s something increasingly intriguing about this sickly chief of the Zuoyue Bureau. Yet more is at stake in the city than petty power struggles: as the investigative duo digs into the underbelly of Qiemo, they uncover evidence of a conspiracy that stretches across Great Sui and beyond.

Hi! I really like your meta and insights into characters, so I'd love to hear your take on certain events in book 4.

What do you think Wu Ming was doing during those two days Xie Lian was lying on the ground, pierced with a sword?

It's actually quite hard for me to imagine what Xie Lian could've said to him or threatened him with to make Wu Ming obey him and not follow him for a few days... Xie Lian originally stabbed himself right in front of Wu Ming's eyes and probably told him to go somewhere else afterwards. And I just can't get my head around how Xie Liang managed to convince Wu Ming to not do anything about it right in the moment, and then to leave him unattended for a couple days. I guess there's something to be said for obedience here, but with Xie Lian doing something that has caused him so much pain in the past in front of his eyes, it's hard for me to understand how Wumin could've stayed away, since he was already clearly quite disturbed even before Xie Lian stabbed himself

Hello there!

That's something I've also wondered for a long time, to be honest. Frankly, my only explanation has been that Xie Lian kind of just... yeet'd himself away, and without knowing exactly where, Wu Ming had to search for him. That it was too far for Wu Ming to get there quickly. I don't think Xie Lian gave him any orders or anything, and even if he did, Wu Ming would not have obeyed.

It kind of makes sense because the cut-away says "the next day" -- so it took a day itself for Xie Lian to drop down in Lang-Er Bay. Perhaps that location really was far from where the two originally were. Though, I can't help but feel there would be a commotion, and word-of-mouth would get out that something weird was up in Lang-Er Bay. That being said, no government officials or soldiers or anything came to investigate (as far as I remember), so perhaps not?

Regardless, once Bai Wuxiang came over and started messing around and gathering ghastly spirits, etc etc etc -- I think that would be an unmistakable sign pointing to the right location, allowing Wu Ming to rush over.

That was first impression of that whole thing, and I think it works, anyway. Hopefully my explanation made sense to you! I'm very curious to see if this was changed in the Revised Version, actually. It seems like one of the things MXTX would have revisited.
