YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I think what I like so much about Hualian’s love is their profound respect for each other. They never try to change one another. They respect each other’s autonomy, choices, and conception of morality. The only time Hua Cheng ever tries to oppose Xie Lian is when he thinks Xie Lian is about to harm himself.

And that is just so precious and important.

Any day now

Do we all agree that Xie Lian would LOVE Tumblr?

He’d get to ramble on about any and everything. And find other weirdos with the same special interests as him

Hua Cheng would like and comment and repost every time. Perhaps even create a second account to re-like and re-comment et re-repost all over again

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.

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.

YO FRENCH TRANSLATION OF ALASR BY PINKPLUM1153!!!

To me, Hua Cheng and Xie Lian’s relationship always felt like relief. Relief that they finally have somewhere (someone) they belong. Somewhere to rest. Like they’ve both been on high alert for 800 years, never able to rest, never able to rely upon someone, to trust with their whole soul. And then suddenly, quiet. Peace. Relief.

Idk, that might be a very personal interpretation that nobody shares. But. That’s what it always felt like to me, first and foremost. This is why HuaLian is my ultimate comfort couple. Because they feel like coming home after a hard day and finally being able to just relax and place yourself in someone else’s hands, not only trusting but knowing they will never take advantage and always cherish it.
