#yunmeng siblings

[junodoom]

swordtember day 5: edible

[raeiyyn]

not a day passes by where I don't think about the yunmeng brothers and their love, which despite its abundance haunts the other

[ineffectualdemon]

To understand Jiang Cheng is to understand that he's not the golden child or the scapegoat

Wei Wuxian is both of those

Wei Wuxian is Jiang Fengmian's Golden Child and Madame Yu's Scapegoat

But to both of them Jiang Cheng is simply the Failure

He isn't the son that his father wanted and he's not the son that his mother wanted

He can not live up to either of their wishes or desires because of who he is inherently. He is not charming or naturally exceptionally talented

He is smart and capable but he's not smart and capable enough for them

He puts in pure graft and commitment and gets only looked over or told how little it matters

It's not that he's to blame for anyone else's failures, it's that his accomplishments are meaningless and forgettable just like he is

And if you can't be loved for who you are a part of you wants to be hated because at least that means someone gives a damn

You wear your anger on your skin because it does hurt so much when you are rejected and it makes it harder to forget you

And god how badly you wish to at least be remembered

And you love your sibling who is both on a pedestal but being flogged for the honor

And you want to help and protect them but you also resent them

And they also resent you. At least a little

Because you have time without eyes on you

Time without constant scrutiny over your every action

Which is why the thing that holds the siblings together is the only parent they ever knew who truly loved them unconditionally: Jiang Yanli

Who of course was smothered under that love

yunmeng sibs go brr (mdzs/untamed tpmeme pt 10)

[yueyie]

We got you… always

[thistle--bug]

I love finding little fun facts about the Untamed cast because the actors of the Yunmeng siblings all had other things they did before acting so it's just like:

[tls123]

This flute… I've never seen you hold it before.

Jiang Yanli should have an honorary "Jiang Yanli FUCKS" tag for being the only one of her siblings to not die a virgin

[nadiasna7]

Happy birthday Jiang Cheng!!!

A moment of happiness because I can't stop drawing depressing stuff with him, lol. He deserves a break

[bi-turtle-enthusiast]

jiang yanli defended wei wuxian to anyone who dared to talk shit about him.

wei wuxian would rather say he died of natural causes than let wen ning think jiang cheng killed him.

jiang cheng was ready to make every excuse to the cultivation world for remaining associated with wei wuxian but wei wuxian wasn't going to let him be disgraced on his behalf.

jiang yanli traveled to the burial mounds herself just to give wei wuxian soup and show him her wedding dress.

jiang cheng kept chenqing in perfect condition.

jiang cheng hunted down every cultivator that could possibly be wei wuxian reincarnated but when wei wuxian got reincarnated he just let him go.

jiang yanli loved and protected both jiang cheng and wei wuxian in their broken family, making sure they stood up for each other instead of standing against each other.

jiang cheng would rather sacrifice his dogs and his golden than have to live without wei wuxian.

wei wuxian feels like he owes jiang cheng and jiang yanli his life, but they never wanted his life, they just wanted him.

[touchlikethesun]

jiang cheng and lan wangji working together trying to find wei wuxian while he was trapped in the burial mounds is actually objectively hilarious, like two of the most socially awkward boys in cultivation society — who kinda hate each other but definitely hate smalltalk — being forced into close proximity and extended contact for months all because they happen to love the same wonderfully annoying/self sacrificing boy (who is also maybe the reason they hate each other but like hell will either of them admit to it)… not to mention their emotions are running high and their stress levels even higher but all of this is happening with more than a couple underlings always flitting about and clan politics to worry about (oh and also a war) so they can’t even argue they just have to. exist. in the same space. in ever increasingly tense and awkward silences. it’s just funny to think about idk
