Sometimes "rarepair" means "you are literally the only person who posts about this on tumblr dot com" and you have to learn to be okay with that.

"love is what makes us human" actually it's 'select all images with boat' but go off I guess

Danmei is a very unique genre of queer literature which both centers and de-centers queerness. None of the Danmei I’ve read have been essentially “about” being gay. They’re just stories of life, of magic, of fantasy, of love, in which the main characters happen to be gay. Which is a kind of representation I have often seeked from western media and related intermediaries because why is every gay story, a coming out story? Is there not more to queer people than that?

However, while capturing the personhood of queer people; Danmei also captures the queerness of people because none of these stories would work if the characters weren’t gay/queer

Wei Wuxian’s absolute buffoonery of misunderstanding Lan Zhan’s feelings in a decade long telephone game in which neither of them open their damn mouth would never work in a non-queer story because between a man and a woman romance would be the natural assumption of everyone around them and therefore wouldn’t leave space for confusion. The misunderstanding of their romance is so closely tied to the plot succession that the plot would be… non existent without it

In TGCF Xie Lian and Hua Cheng’s absolute aspirational love is literally in the backseat and front seat of the story. Not too different from a classic hero’s journey but instead of the hero being one person, it’s two people. They are so intertwined with eo that they become one character and witness a lot of the story together. Witness being a very interesting word choice. Their queerness doesn’t drive the story but replacing one of them with a woman would dampen the effect— it’d remove the uncertainty, the confusion from everyone around them, the genuine slow burn of the romance. There’s also this idea of Hua Cheng falling in love with Xie Lian so far separated from concepts such as gender or whatever which wouldn’t have been hammered home in a straight romance where those conversations aren’t always had between the audience and the story

And Erha.. well obviously. Half of Chu Wanning’s “this is so inappropriate” spiral wouldn’t exist if he was a woman. And, the idea of Mo Ran being a “cut sleeve” builds up the under current of his character being so far dismissed by society because he’s seen as immoral. Which just wouldn’t serve to the same effect if he was into exclusively women because so was every other character.

Not in a single one of these stories is queerness and homosexuality the central theme of the story yet without them, the romance wouldn’t be the same. Liking the same gender as you comes with baggage in our society which is so heteronormative and that effect has to exist in the person characters become for them to be authentic but at the same time, limiting that effect only to produce coming out stories/falling in love stories is unfair. Danmei mends this through a middle ground where the plot is the focus but it doesn’t exist in a vaccum, it exists in queerness itself

out of all the couples in my island safe to say they’re the most dramatic one😅

the timeline goes like this:

sqh fell first, then asked to live together, fell hard, lost feelings, asked to move out (i didn’t let him ofc), then FINALLY mbj falls for him, sqh reciprocated (of course he did), mbj confessed, sqh proposed, and they have a son now <3

still funny to find out with the svsss extras that everyone was wrong about shen yuan being the odd one out in his family. they're all kind of weird. both his brothers fucked off to remote places. he comes back all wise and graceful, and is suddenly into serious cosplaying and theyre all like, ' what intersting new behaviors' and then carried on like it was nothing

spot on about shang qinghua tho. barely back to the modern world and immediately goes back to writing pidw

[eeeeeeelemons]

Shizun, I was wrong…

[eeeeeeelemons]

i posted my bingqiu fankid a couple months back And i figured i could also share my... moshanglings.

They are all boys and qinghua was a little bummed at first because Why does cucumber get a sweet adorable daughter while i have THREE of THESE THINGS? ...but the little beasts grew on him eventually

Welp, you all won’t believe what I stayed up to 2 am working on!

Anyway, have an aroace themed Project Hail Mary cover. I tried to keep a good chunk of the OG cover design (because I actually really like it) and just added in some fun additions to it~

Maybe one day I’ll actually be able to learn some book binding and actually put this on the book 😆. Hopes and dreams.
