Hollow Tears

Drawn for the @tgcf-reverse-big-bang 2024.

I had the pleasure of working with the wonderful @feanope (please check them out on Bluesky and ao3 as well!) who took my one art piece and ran with it to create this beyond amazing work, which you can find here:

The worst part of Jun Wu’s story is that absolutely none of the horrific, disgusting and terrifying things that happened to him were manufactured.

Xie Lian realized later in the series that most, if not all of the horrors that befell him were all manufactured by White No Face - but Jun Wu’s was not.

He really was stabbed a thousand times, kicked and stomped on, spat on, hated, accursed.

The mortals he served, his own worshippers, hated him that much truly, without any helping on from a resentful entity.

I genuinely believe that one of the main reasons Xie Lian never ended up like Jun Wu is because Jun Wu orchestrated the fall of Xian Le. From Xie Lian's first banishment to his second- Jun Wu was there as White no Face blantently messing with things right in front of Xie Lian. All the times people hurt him could probably be traced back to White no Face and he never hid it. So while he was crushing Xie Lian's faith in humanity- he was also giving Xie Lian a direct excuse for those people's actions. Like that people won't do that if they have no option. And the Bamboo man was the proof that Xie Lian was looking for that people weren't just inherently bad. And that it was all White no Face's influence.

Basically, the main difference is that Wuyong fell because of man vs nature while Xian Le fell because of man vs man and that made all the difference.

Trying to figure out why i get so attached and feel so much because of fictional characters and situations to the point it’s genuinely overwhelming so i searched it up and. No. you don’t understand I do not imagine myself being friends with characters or being in a relationship with them or merely existing in that world i think about them and their relationships and their gut wrenching world ending trauma obsessively to the point it is unbearable. to the point it is PAINFUL. i don’t want to be them, I don’t WANT them, i simply need to comfort them in a way that is not humanly possible and it pains me i cannot cope with it

Tgfc Novel Spoiler!

------------------------------

I really can't help but be surprised when I see JunLian fans. Look, my friend, maybe you haven't read the novel, so feel free to continue your happy admiration for now. But if you've read it and still have such admiration, I can't help but ask you, "Really?"

Perhaps people with such admiration are fans because they share a view like "similar fates," but I think there's something they overlook:

Jun Wu destroyed all "Heavenly Officials", to erase Wuyong's existence.

Jun Wu was interested in Xie Lian because Xie Lian resembled him, but a single phrase was enough for him to hate Xie Lian: "Body in abyss, heart in paradise."

Jun Wu wasn't like that. His body wasn't in the "abyss"; his body was in heaven, but his soul was experiencing the "abyss".

Jun Wu's unfortunate fate was self-inflicted, but almost everything Xie Lian experienced was due to Jun Wu's inferiority complex.

"As White No-Face, he caused the fall of Xianle Kingdom and terrorized Xie Lian to convince him that a heart can't remain pure under horrible and traumatizing circumstance. However, he failed and Xie Lian remained unchanged, thus Jun Wu grew extremely vexed."
