I wonder how off-putting it was when Wei Wuxian came back and he was in that social limbo where some people knew he was Wei Wuxian but most people thought he was still Mo Xuanyu.
Imagine some weird twink gets banished and then shows up to a party one day with completely different mannerisms hanging off the arms of the weird grump nobody really likes but everybody respects as an authority.
His grin is familiar, but doesn't fit that face quite right.
He's definitely still a little freak, but he seems to have the best handle of what's going on.
He walks like a man who has killed with his own bare hands, but surely a harmless, weak man like Mo Xuanyu hasn't killed anything more dangerous than a mosquito.
But it puts a weird anxiety in your stomach, the knowledge that something is not quite right but you have no idea what it could possibly be.
And then it turns out that like a cockroach, the Jianghu's least favorite person is back from the dead.
imagining liu qingge hopelessly watching shen yuan go away with luo binghe after spending five years fighting tirelessly for his corpse is destroying me so bad right now. like ohhhmy god. can not recall the last time i was into a guy who pined this hard and tragically
"He has been proper and righteous his whole life, untouched by the corruption of the secular world. The only mistake he has ever made in his life is you!"
One of my favorite things about mxtx couples being put in a modern/no magic AU setting is how absolutely unhinged their actions would be considered
Hualian consists of some guy that was famous as a child/young adult before falling off hard and some guy that idolized him as a 10 year old only to start stalking and pining for him from afar for years afterwards. The stalker manages to score a friendship with this guy, constantly hangs around him and helps him, and once his red flags are discovered the guy is so chill about it. Even into it
Wangxian starts off more normal. Two guys that are sort of frenemies in high school with one being the suppressed good boy type and the other being your typical troublemaker. The troublemaker goes from being a bad influence to a straight up war criminal even if he’s lowkey in the right for it. Whenever he gets out of jail he goes right back to doing war crimes and instead of stopping him, the good boy protects and even joins him in his war crimes
Bingqiu is this teenager with a massive crush on his fresh out of college, no idea what he’s doing, teacher who was never really supposed to be a teacher, he just ended up here. Everything is chill until the week of final exams he gets expelled from school or something because of this teacher and goes through the worst trauma of his life trying to pull his life back together and survive. Years later he’s the equivalent of a gang leader and meets his teacher, who’s now terrified of him. He starts stalking him and trying to get with him because man he really just wants to be called a good boy
Xue Yang: Am I going too far?
Xiao Xingchen: No, no, no. You went too far about seven hours ago. Now you're going to prison.
at the start of mdzs when lwj drags wwx back to the cloud recesses and then almost immediately goes to the cold springs, known for both its calming energy and helping with … arousal . like… how much of that do u think is lwj being so excited that wwx is back AND also being excited wwx was back, brattier and twinkier than ever
fifth prompt for the svsss gatcha for gaza!! @ yujispinkhair on twitter requested happy gongyi xiao, then my hand slipped and zhuzhi-lang got in there.
actual jiang cheng: one of the strongest cultivators in his generation, said to be equal to hanguang-jun in a no-holds-barred fight
jiang cheng according to me: a wet paper bag could beat him in a fight, so long as it called him wei wuxian's jealous ex first
