The two best reasons to ship anything are:

1.Incredible, deep and detailed narrative themes. The parallels that seem to hit just right, the narrative foils that they can be to each other, the intricate dynamic that's both extremely complex and easily understood. The juxtaposition between something that's harsh and undoubtedly toxic, with the softer undertones, the parts where you read in-between the lines and find a mutual feeling of loneliness from both parts, their intrinsic understanding of each other comes from the mere fact that they're each others mirrored reflections and shadows. In the end both sides will be together forever, and you as an audience can clearly see their tragedy laid out before in a path that blurs pure anguish and tender romance

2.It would be so fucking funny

OMG YOU'RE ON TUMBLR NOW I CAN TAG YOU IN POSTS AND SEND YOU ALL THE THINGS

Oh noo!! 😭😭 I can see how that might happen, though. My blog has a good bit of art under the Nie Huaisang tag, none of which should be JGY-critical (personally, I’m willing to criticise JGY’s actions in an analysis sense, but I don’t do character bashing unless a character is truly despicable, and JGY is just not that! NHS wasn’t completely UNJUSTIFIED in his actions, but his actions were not inherently less “bad” than JGY. JGY simply did what he did for himself, while NHS did it for his brother. Even if you look at it from a selfish vs selfless standpoint, they both tricked the people who trusted them, endangered loved ones, and both had complex and morally grey reasons to do what they did. They would be viewed as having similar arcs and compared more often I believe, if it weren’t for the fact their conflict was WITH each other, and not someone else.)

My friend Lemon (BearFox_1022 on ao3) is also soon going to be uploading a fic in their NHS-centric series “Life With A Little Luck” that has some excellent JGY content that made me SOB (beta life is fun).

So… here’s my fic reccs!

sucks to be zewu-jun (Xiyao, transmigration au)

Coats and Rings (WONDERFUL sangcheng gang au where JGY isn’t villainized)

any fool can know (no ships, just JGY and NHS friendship)

same sweet shock (instead of revenge NHS puts his older brothers in couples counseling. nmj learns not to be a bitch and jgy learns he likes kissing xichen on the mouth)

Like A Long-Time Painted Smile (nmj lives, xiyao thrives, nhs only schemes for silly mischief reasons)

A Headless Beast, A Ribbon, and the Gold That Colors Them (fic by my best friend. 3zun soulmate au where instead of being ruined by society JGY learns to kiss boys and be stupid and awesome)

https://archiveofourown.org/series/3212457 (Podfic series some friends of mine did featuring the joys of JGY being petty and LXC being down bad. I do remember JGY and NHS being fun in this one)

Jiggy defender blog meets Fan Boy defender blog…. Who shall win… (I love JGY sm acc he’s so complex and interesting. him and NHS could’ve been such powerful besties if not for a few Choices)

noooooo please don't challenge me to a duel, i am so tired 😭

i'm also sad to say that my feelings on nhs have soured a bit in recent months--not because of the character, to be clear, but because of some really frustrating and unpleasant encounters with nhs stans here and on the mdzs subreddit, so it's not his fault, i know!--but i would like to rediscover the stuff that i did used to love about his character. so if you have any nice fanart or fic recs*, i would love to see them!

* my only request for these is that jgy isn't treated like the scum of the earth or some evil caricature of himself, since it's very hard for me to enjoy fic or fanart where i can tell that the author/artist isn't extending him the same grace or compassion offered to the rest of the cast.

Send me links to your fave Pinterest outfits and an MXTX character, I’ll draw them in it (will do some ships too, if you have couples outfits)

Concept: Shen Qingqiu going to stay with Moshang bc they’re happily married and should be immune to SQQ’s Fish Fear Me Men Want Me Rizzaroni Reverse Fuckboy Type Halo only to wake up in the middle of a moshang cuddle sandwich wondering what the fuck color pill did he take for the Webnovel Yaoi Matrix to hate him this much

It's funny that in mdzs x sanrio collab LWJ is paired with Cinnamoroll
