Chinese and Thai BL Fanfic @cowhux - Tumblr Blog

Pinned Post

Hi, I'm cowhux for reasons I can't even explain (never start a joke AO3 account). I write on AO3 here.

This blog is for me to stick drabbles and short stuff that I don't really have a good place for on AO3. Currently writing Pit Babe, ABO Desire and Revenged Love.

Yesterday but Vier has a spine

“I don’t see how you can ever forgive me,” Kelvin, staring dejectedly at the ground. “I did all those terrible things to you…hoping you would love me…”

“Oh, yeah, good point,” Vier said. “I don’t know how I could either.”

Then he turned and walked away and never saw Kelvin again.

#yesterday the series #I’m sorry but I am not over Kelvin’s low-self esteem

There are broadly three types of toxic BL fans that I’m aware of:

Here for the drama: You just want something interesting and kind of fucked up to happen and you are here to see how dark things can get. You get upset when the love interest doesn’t commit murder. This is always me and my friend.

I want my unhinged baby boy to get everything he wants: Sometimes me and I always respect this. You know the love interest is evil and you love that for him. You cheer as the MC is given Stockholm Syndromex10 and you are writing some wonderful dark fanfic. Good for you!

Aww they’re in love and going to get married and live happily ever after: I am not here to drag anyone, we are all in these extremely niche fandoms together and I will happily write fanfic for you but if I am being honest it does feel like some of you are watching different shows. Generally you are the ones carrying these fandoms though, so thank you! And your gifs with hearts framing the main couple are pretty adorable, honestly.

#Are there anymore? I should make a uquiz but I won’t #Toxic bl #avoiding work by shitposting #Really not insulting anyone’s tastes I am just aware that I am watching these shows for very different reasons than some people

the "my favorite character did nothing wrong" mindset is completely unappealing to me because i love thinking about all the things my favorite characters did wrong

I enjoy how all the random tourists are just like🧍‍♀️in the background while stupid gay things are happening on the beach and they are now Unexpectedly extras in a toxic yaoi peace and love on planet earth

#To my shore #Lol yep we noticed that as well #i think there’s a production assistant shooing them away in frame at one point

I can work with that (to my shore special)

#To my shore #Unearned but at least in character

while I’m at it yesterday redemption arc pitch:

kelvin keeps vier in that basement forever. Vier learns to love it except when he doesn’t. The end of the show is a fever dream especially the special episode where kelvin sings karoake and when it’s over Vier wakes up right back where he belongs

(Sorry)

#i am sorry vier kelvin could be healthy fans but I want Kelvin to be worse and Vier to suffer #Vier is such a boring character #Kelvin has beautiful dead eyes #yesterday the series #Kelvin’s problem is not low self-esteem!!!

Hey…. Hey… Character’s covered in blood, okay? You remember characters covered in blood?? You used to love characters covered in blood

#Characters covered in blood my beloved

so here’s my “to my shore” redemption arc pitch which is better than the show’s:

fan xiao betrayed his evil father and is somewhat on the run and it’s implied that’s to protect shu lang. what if that fails and shu lang is kidnapped for his part in what happened, along with fan xiao. Some shared torture, some him not me moments, running away and hiding together and getting to know each other in moments where fan xiao has no power and control, mundane quiet moments shared together over food, only one bed, shu lang getting to beat someone to death to protect fan xiao, fan xiao learning that the only way to keep shu lang is to be able to let him go, shu lang choosing to stay because they are both a little fucked up and codependent BUt Also because he’s seen fan xiao respect his boundaries multiple times on their adventures together and he believes that this time he’ll try

i have negative amounts of time to write this sadly but it would be a banger if I did

#To my shore #anyone is free to use this idea

how it should have gone

”And from this day forward, you’re no longer my pet,” Vegas said.

“Now wait just a second, hold on,” Pete said. “Let’s not rush into saying things we can’t take back.”

a talking point i often see when defending the consumption of dark content is that it’s a coping mechanism for those with trauma which is very valid and true but i also want to make this abundantly clear: you can like dark content for no reason. you can enjoy fucked up shit in fiction because it’s enjoyable and entertaining. trauma is not required as a ticket for entry. enjoy your dark content bc it’s fun and sexy and don’t let anyone take that away from you
