When marimba rhythms start to play, dance with me, make me sway~
I’m finally a true sangcheng fan, I drew the watermelon. I didn’t intend to make Huaisang and Jiang Cheng to look like they’re mafia members but several people suggested it, so.
The smoke from the barrel faded quickly in the cold weather, "brrrr it's too cold for this" the brunette whined whilst dismantling the rifle back to it's case.
After finishing the task and the rifle was well packed in the suitcase he hid it in the designated spot, where it'd be picked in a couple of months discreetly,
he pulled his fur coat closer to his body a whine in his throat, as if that'd warm him up, if you turn a blind eye to the fact he was wearing shorts and was laying on the snowy roof for a couple of hours waiting for the appropriate moment, maybe it would've seemed logical, but it's not, he's freezing.
He went downstairs, no elevator, only taking the stairs to the parking lot, the getaway car is there, he should wait for two hours before getting out, switching out at least 2 cars before getting a motel, these are going to be 2 long days.
He sighed, putting on a headscarf and sunglasses, he should get ready to switch his looks a couple of times. He put lipgloss and cheap earrings on, he hated this part of his job.
~~~~~~~~~
"babe!! I missed you!" The brunette threw himself at his husband, forgetting the cheap clothes he was wearing, after throwing the keys to the fake room he got to one of the bodyguards, shooing them away, letting someone else deal with it.
It's been 4 whole days!! The mission was a mess!! He knew he could do it properly, but after poisoning a pest a little over a month ago and having no reliable man close to this target he didn't have plenty of choices, and finishing the job himself was the best way to end this.
"Huaisang, you should've been more careful, are you hurt?" His husband inspected his face, attention on high alert for any sign of a lie, a wince or a wound, but Huaisang wasn't that easy to give anything he didn't want.
"I'm stinky! And I'm wearing the worst clothes I ever wore! I got them at a market!!! It's not even vintage!! A-cheng I want a shower, my pretty clothes, and most importantly, my ring, babe quickly I'll simply die if I'm not having your ring on my finger for even another moment!" He complained and whined, collapsing in his husband's embrace, as if about to faint
"you're such a drama queen, why did I marry you?" His husband groused, holding him close, pulling the ring he was saving in his pocket this whole time, putting it back on it's home.
"because I stole your heart and da-ge would eat you alive if you dared to break mine, thanks love" Huaisang kissed him and quickly dove from the embrace to get to the shower he's deserving.
He turned to look at his beloved husband one last time before going to the penthouse's shower catching his husband staring, "babe, my ass would look good even in a sack I know, but save your staring for when it's in the right package."
"most of your packages are almost nonexistent." "If you didn't like it you wouldn't have fucked me as often as you do."
~~~~~~~~~
They're cuddling in bed, sweaty and satisfied when the wound is found.
"It's only a graze I didn't even notice it!" Huaisang insisted as his a-cheng traced it frowning with his fingers "it could've been worse, I hate it when you finish business this way, you could've waited a couple of months, you wouldn't have to put yourself at risk for this."
"it wasn't that bad!" "Nie Mingjue threatened to have my head roll on the court of justice's stairs once he was done with me if anything happened to you." "How did he find out?! No one was in cahoots on this! Jiang Cheng I swear to all the gods in the sky that if you told him-""they found your favorite brand of Dior lipstick in the getaway car, you're lucky it melted in the fire, but the package was still identified, it was all over the newspaper" Jiang Cheng lit a cigarette and inhaled, he started getting a headache.
Nie Huaisang took the cigarette from his hand and took a drag as well, "ugh I knew I forgot something, I would've been more careful if I wasn't being shot at when I got to the other getaway, seriously they were too uptight about me getting rid of that idiot, I was doing everyone a favor sending him to hell this soon"
Jiang Cheng took his cigarette back flicking his husband's forehead for taking it, " he was the big man paying their salary, and his wife is just as nasty as he was, you don't kill the head of one of the biggest families in this area and expect no fight, you got really lucky."
" I was calculated, my plans never get like this you know it." "There's always a first time, you're lucky it wasn't your first and last, you're grounded for this too." "You're kidding, right? Babe you can't ground me I'm not twelve and you're not da-ge."
"I can, and I am, see it as a vacation, you're not allowed near the strategy room for at least 2 months, you're allowed to still get information from your web but it will get filtered by Nie Zonghui, he will make sure to write it down for you to look at after if it's important."
"everything's important! And having it written is evidence! Babe I'll get bored so quickly it's a terrible decision!" Jiang Cheng took his last drag and crushed the cigarette's end "my decision is final, you need to rest that's it, make art, shop for clothes, we can go on vacation in 5 weeks, when everything cools, but no nothing before your time is up, I could give a call to a-jie if you're getting out of your mind, you liked it when you baked no? It'd do good for you"
"that's evil!! You're evil! Why did I marry you?" "Because I got your heat in a binding contract, you couldn't have done anything to save it."
Nie Huaisang looked at him, and gave him a suggestive smile "what if I can convince you to change your decision?" "You're welcome to try."
~~~~~~~~~
The decision wasn't changed, but Nie Huaisang did try his best.
Ballet dancer sangcheng au part 2:
Nie Huaisang had one family rule he had to follow: he had to learn at least 2 athletic classes after school as a kid, no matter which, as long as it was athletic and he had fun, the Nies are well known for their sportive nature, and Nie Huaisang would be no different.
Nie Huaisang didn't like the idea at first, he would've preferred to do nothing and maybe draw, but if he wanted to be able to be in an art class in school he had to do as he's told.
The first class he enrolled in was in gymnastics, he was a really flexible kid, and some girls in his class showed him some really cool tricks he really wanted to learn, and once he learnt he could do splits and cool handstands and play with a ribbon, a fan and a hoop in shows he was immediately sold. He loved gymnastics.
The second class was much more difficult to decide, the first year he took hip hop, he enjoyed it, but it wasn't something he really liked, so the second year he tried jazz, which was fine, but not really that fun either
The third year he tried flamenco, he stayed for 2 years but moved along to something else, since he didn't feel connected enough, next he tried fan dancing, but it was so strict and as much as able as he was he was very exhausted.
Next he tried contemporary dance, but as artistic as it was in it's soul it sometimes was too raw for him, he tried Irish but it was too exhausting.
He went on and on, and at 16 he found ballet, where he met a strict and lonely dancer, the passion in his soul to ballet was addicting and curious, he wanted to know him more, and before he knew it he was sneaking looks at him. At 16 he found a new love.
Making friends was easy, but talking with the dancer was sometimes a challenge, although, whenever he could make him smile or laugh he was so happy, dancing with him felt so natural, and learning ballet after so much experience with different forms of dance was easy enough.
He made so many friends in class, but none compared to the dancer they were wary to anger, so dedicated and passionate, no one can ever compare.
Nie Huaisang was in love with Jiang Cheng.
Ballet dancers sangcheng idea:
Jiang Cheng have started learning ballet as a child, he had done it professionally in a very high stress environment due to his parents pushing him to be the best of the very best
When he reaches his teen years he's losing a lot of sleep and barely eats enough for his developing body, when he's not studying at school or doing his homework he's practicing, social life nonexistent, he's pushing himself to the limit of his limit, the only kids his age he interacts with are Jiang Yanli and Wei Wuxian who live in the same house as him
So it's only natural he barely forms any social skills and is suffering from emotional instability, and it pushes him to his limit until he snaps.
At 15 he's no longer learning professional ballet
At 16 he's in a hobby ballet studio, learning ballet again, but easier, less demanding and less stressful from what he's used to. His parents do not approve but cannot argue much longer with Jiang Yanli and Wei Wuxian on the matter, it's a relief of sorts.
He meets there the most vibrant dancer he'd ever met, but making friends is difficult, and making conversation is hard, so he settles for dancing with him and for talking about ballet, it's easier than anything else.
He's lucky the dancer doesn't seem to mind his critique and his guidance in dance, and laughs at harsh comments and easily rolls off any glare, he wouldn't know what he would've done if he hated him.
He falls in love with Nie Huaisang.

i’m gonna drop an art tip here
i think an important thing to learn, especially if you start out with drawing anime, is that faces don’t necessarily have to narrow from top to bottom
i like to think of wide top, wide middle, wide bottom, and rectangle-like as the 4 main face shapes
what you should keep in mind about them:
you’re only halfway done: the jawlines, the width-length ratio, the amount of fat in the cheeks, the intensity or subtlety of the face’s curves are all important components you still have to decide on after choosing the shape itself
none of these shapes are exclusively feminine or masculine, don’t hesitate drawing them on any gender
most people in real life have some variation of the wide middle type
if you are trying to draw real people, getting the shape of their face down is the first step
i’ve seen tutorials say the shape of the face can tell a lot of the character’s personality - you don’t necessarily have to live by that rule. as long as you aren’t unrealistically drastic about their proportions, their face shape determines their inner qualities as much as it would in real life (not at all)

NOTE: one type of fold will rarely appear on its own - they interact with each other quite a bit! for example, spiral folds might define the outline of a pant leg, while the interior folds might be zig-zag folds.
i’m trying to re-learn how to draw clothing, so i made this little guide to the most common shapes of folds that appear. hope it helps someone else too!
Some pointers I keep in mind while drawing difficult angles. Posted these on twitter last month.
I made a color tutorial! i think the main thing is still to experiment a lot and to not be afraid of pushing it, but i hope this is helpful! i also hope my writings legible
This is a great tutorial! Thanks for sharing it! 💕💕
