He Xuan is terribly underestimated as a Ghost King. I don’t see why he would be that far behind White no Face and Hua Cheng.
I think this widespread conception comes from the fact that, yes, in a fight, both HC and JW would wipe the floor with him. But that doesn’t mean (I think) that He Xuan is inherently less powerful or impressive.
See, the thing is… fighting isn’t He Xuan’s domain of expertise. He is a scholar. He is good at plotting, scheming, and has excellent control over his spiritual power, perhaps even better than Hua Cheng’s.
Think of all his clones in Heavens, that must all be powerful since they are supposed to pass for Middle Court Officials. Think of his domain: the guy controls a part of the damn ocean.
So yeah. Justice for He Xuan.
Only my opinion of course. But feel free to give yours in the comments. I love reading people’s thoughts.
It’s Wu Ming Wednesday! So here is my humble contribution to the fandom ^^ (I posted this on monday but shhh)
Expect angst, protective Xie Lian and a hopeful/open happy ending. The rating is Teen and Up, and this is a canon divergence. The fic is complete.
Here’s a little extract:
“He is at his side in an instant, closing his arms around Wu Ming’s flickering form only moments before he hits the ground. He should not be here, Xie Lian thinks, frantic as he desperately calls the ghost’s name, to no avail. He should not be here, bleeding out his very essence in the blinding light of the Heavens for all to see. Because he should be gone.”
Many thanks to the amazing @nootcatt for beta reading
Hope you enjoy!
I was thinking about how in modern AUs XL is often portrayed as liking to wear things that are typically considered “feminine” (skirts, heels, makeup, etc.) while HC is more “ masculine”
When in reality… am I the only one to think that the one wearing heels and make up would be HC? He’s canonically very careful of his appearance and the way he dresses, always wearing make up and carefully chosen jewellery, he has his own style, etc. He also gives off (that´s only my personal opinion though) massive non-binary/gender fluid vibes
So. Idk. But I think he would have an androgynous and refined style while XL would stick to something basic (maybe gender neutral) like baggy pants and sweatshirts. And crocs.
Happy pride month specifically to folks on the asexual and aromantic spectrum who oftentimes feel isolated and left out of the conversation. You belong here as much as the rest of us and I hope that you are all loved in a way that is comforting to you.

Are you a top or a bottom?
personally I prefer the 2nd or 3rd floor of the building because I like being at tree level (i could not live somewhere without trees sorry) on the 1st floor it's too easy for people to look in through the windows so you need to add curtains for a reasonable degree of privacy but then the lighting situation is just horrible. and anything above the 4th floor is just too high off the ground ... how will I be able to appreciate the whimsy and joy of the forest from such an absurd height? the 2nd and 3rd floors are clearly a happy medium between these two extremes
My roommates got married last week and said today that they’re planning on moving to somewhere else in the city, and asked me to move with them when they do.
Which I appreciate so much, they’re both fantastic roommates and I really don’t want to try and find another place on my own, but also. Jesus Christ what a look. “Hiii we’re the Thompsons, we just moved in down the street, that’s my husband and that’s the ghoul who used to live in our basement”
This took FOREVER but here's my tribute to A Long and Slow Recovery by @ardenrabbit
I cannot wait until the exams are over. I. am. tirrred. And I wanna do something else than studying for a change. Like... I don't know. Writing. Catching a glimpse of direct sunlight. Sleeping would be a good idea as well.
