My favorite thing about my hualian reincarnation AU is that in one of Xie Lian’s life times hua cheng comes across like 12 y/o calamity!XL burning down a village and he’s just EXASPERATED

Like

“Look you don’t know it but this is actually a really big setback for me”
Because Xie Lian’s self loathing is bad enough and when he remembers this lifetime later on it’s gonna BE WORSE and it usually just spares them both a headache if hua cheng commits crimes for him
And hua cheng is just like “why are you even burning this village down anyway”

10 minutes later they’re both watching the village burn down with hua cheng carrying Xie Lian on his back like “well a little arson builds character honestly”
This is beginner’s guide to living btw the first two chapters are on ao3 and I’m gonna resume posting when I finish no paths are bound.

It also has 90s goth gf/preppy gf hualesbians
And it features Xie Lian falling for hua cheng and San Lang simultaneously not realizing they’re the same dude all while feeling TERRIBLE ABOUT IT

i love tgcf with every fiber of my being but i will never not be sad about the lack of explicit emotional resolution for the Xianle trio
the beauty of MXTX's writing is that they leave SO MUCH up to interpretation because you don't get anyone else's inner thoughts except for Xie Lian's most of the time (and even that's limited), but sometimes i'm like "NO i want to know EXPLICITLY what this character feels NOW."
and i think writing no paths are bound has given me SUCH a greater appreciation for how beautiful and symbolic tgcf is,, but it's also made me realize how much untapped potential there is in the broader cast and relationships between the characters that just didn't get developed

sometimes as a catholic i have to stare at like angel/demon stories pulled from catholic lore like 'u do realize that angels are supposed to look terrifying whereas demons are supposed to be alluring, right'
like i don't MIND i love a sexy angel/demon au as much as the next bitch but angels are supposed to literally make you shit your pants out of terror
which i'm not sure if that's what imaginary was going for in their recent monsterfucking thing where Xie Lian was the monster but IF SO IT WAS ONE OF THE FEW ACCURATE DEPICTIONS I'VE SEEN

i love natalie portman as an actress but i hate jane foster (in the MCU specifically) so much that i am just not as excited for Thor Love and Thunder as I want to be
thor ragnorok is my FAVORITE MCU film by far and I love Thor's character,,, but in the female thor case it feels like Marvel runs into the same wall as it did in the Loki series,,, building a character off of another's popularity instead of letting it stand alone
because I'm sorry I wanted to like Sylvie SO MUCH but her character only thrived because Loki's was SIGNIFICANTLY dumbed down in the show, and if you're not creative enough to make Jane Foster interesting without turning her INTO THOR...i just don't like it at all

OKAY i have edited the gap between what thread reader couldn't compile and the new start to the thread (which was a 40k word gap) and now with everything assembled together into one doc,, feast your eyes on the behemoth and despair
BUTTTT the good news is that with this being edited in AND the new thread being linked in things should be easier for everyone now
and just so u know how much work that is for me editing wise i have to convert the twitter data into a separate page, copy that page into word, reformat it on word, and THEN put it in google docs with the rest of the content and edit it all together,,,

"Mu Qing!" Feng Xin's voice carries easily through the forest, always finding it's mark. "Is your sector clear?"

The martial deity straightens, flicking his hair over his shoulder as he sheathes his saber.

There's been no end to them. Ghosts and demons--coming in hordes.
Oddly enough, despite the fact that Mount Tonglu is northwest of here, the majority of the flow of beasts has been curving south.

“…Just about. Yours?”

“I’ve still got a few snake spirits that won’t…stay…STILL—!”

Mu Qing rolls his eyes, following the sound of his voice.
Anything that he can’t hit with an arrow, and he turns into a grumbling child. Honestly. He knows how to use a sword just as well as—

“Hahahaha!”

Mu Qing pauses in mid-step, leaves crunching under his feet.

“…Feng Xin?”

He was within earshot before, but now…

Nothing.
