my dad’s best friend who transitioned after being in a car wreck with a moose posted transition pictures and she’s looking amazing

[nentuaby]

Waitlike. Are these just two facts about her or did the moose somehow crack her egg along with her car.

[chaumas-deactivated20240115]

she wasn’t publicly out before the moose incident but she needed extensive reconstructive surgery and just snuck gender affirming surgeries into that

so yeah to most people it definitely looked like she had a near death moose experience and they just rebuilt her into a woman

i feel like nobody has NOTPs anymore. like if you hate a ship now it has to be for some deep moral reason and you have to justify it to everyone what happened to just not liking stuff that isnt inherently bad but just because you personally think it sucks

[andthelaw]

Reblog this with a ship u don't like for no reason

I get the vibe that Xie Lian wouldn’t really be put off by any of the more sensual or erotic art that Hua Cheng made of him. Instead, he’d be really intrigued about it.

He’d probably always been depicted as this perfect, beautiful, model of virtue crown prince or as a failure after his downfall. Then Hua Cheng draws him in a completely different way than he’s ever seen. As desirable in a much different context. More Human. Experiencing lust and love. Hc portrays parts of XL he’s curious to learn about himself.

On top of that, to see himself being portrayed as desirable after everything That has happened in his life and being a ‘laughing stock’ was probably incredibly surprising.

So XL isn’t disgusted or horrified like Mu Qing or Feng Xin. He’s fascinated.

Once again thinking about how He Xuan entered the kiln after Hua Cheng and couldn’t have missed the giant statue of Xie Lian lol

He Xuan in the dark of the kiln catching glances of an absolute massive statue:

Xie Lian's bad luck carries so much meaning in TGCF. Like, Xie Lian has actual bad luck but wait, the bad luck is actually commentary on the self-perpetuating nature of poverty- wait, no, it's not actually bad luck at all, it was just a cover for how Jun Wu took advantage of his power to abuse Xie Lian- but wait, it's not bad luck, it's that Xie Lian keeps ending up in situations where his moral character means he refuses to disengage or ignore people's hardships even if he suffers for it. But WAIT-

Beefleaf Week - Day 2: Eve of Hanlu

what if we admitted to each other that it's not always really romance that we want. What if we admitted that what we're really craving is intimacy and society taught us romance is the only way to get it.

[antarctic-arcanine]

If I ever share anything that was AI generated it is purely by accident. I hate that it's getting harder and harder to tell and it makes me want to never use the internet again. It definitely had its faults, but man I miss the internet of the 2000s so much.

[myqueenmarceline]

Adding to this: please TELL ME if I share something that is genAI and you know it is. I want to know this information.

The Trifecta of He Xuan, Yin Yu and Hua Cheng is so funny because it’s literally just Doom and Gloom and then at the front of the pack there’s Loverboy sent from hell to heckle them forever.

[oliveden]

"hua cheng is so jealous and possessive -" WRONG. that guy would watch xie lian date someone else and ask xie lian every day what his day was like and how the date was and it would literally kill him (for 19th time) to hear about it but he'd still ask because he likes seeing xie lian be happy.

if hua cheng ever dated anyone else (not that he would) xie lian would 100% arrange for a mysterious accident to happen. xie lian got jealous over ghost fire's beloved and wu ming's beloved and san lang's beloved and hua cheng's beloved despite the fact that it's literally. i have no words. you know what i mean.

[neithoftheveil]

Listen, I love that Hua Cheng is revered as such a terrifying dude when this man is an 800-year-old virgin who named himself Flower, uses butterflies of all things to fight with, carries around an umbrella his crush gave him that one time, has his crush’s name tattooed on his damn arm, and made rain an important part of his character all because it was so Pivotal to Xie Lian’s downfall and rebirth. He gave no fucks. He’s in love with his gege, and everyone should know it.

[phantom-butterflies]

I hope all of you Hualian artists know that I am absolutely devouring your art. I’m printing those masterpieces out, putting them on a plate, and eating them to absorb your power. You guys are basically gods on your own.

hua cheng and food

I like the headcanon that hua cheng eats and sleeps more after being with xie lian. before, food was just.. boring, pointless for a ghost that doesn't need to eat. and even before that, when he was alive, food was just a way to survive. but when xie lian comes into his life, xie lian who cooks these purple, bubbling meals that look horrid but are cooked with creativity, excitement, fondness, he now has more reason to eat food. one of their first defining interactions on the ox cart is when xie lian offers him a bun, and hua cheng responds like, "do you have another?" and only accepts after xie lian halves it. it's hua cheng's second nature to look after xie lian and make sure he's well-fed first before even considering himself, providing feasts in his home and cooking fish on a stranded island, most of the times remembering xie lian's hunger before xie lian even remembers it himself. maybe the very reason he likes xie lian's bizarre foods is because it's the antithesis of bland. just as xie lian says that after meeting hua cheng he discovered how simple it is to be happy, i think it goes both ways for them. and i think it's so precious that while hua cheng doesn't even need to eat, hell, he might not even feel the pangs of hunger, he as a ghost discovers the simple domestic comfort of sitting down at meals with someone you love.
