hello everynyan :3

Feng Xin has a cute sleepy face once he actually relaxes

Day 6: Butterfly š¦ (I was also kinda thinking of the Travel prompt, like Xie Lian sleeping on the rough grounds while travelling but I realise this isn't as obvious as the butterfly- tumblr gets the behind the scenes lore of what was going through my smooth brain)
Yes we bully Xie Lian in this household

Day 7: Folktale with He Xuan the Siren
Okay I'll be entirely honest i'm obsessed with how this came out and although i am absolutely shattered from doing inktober (i am bobo the fool who did not do any prep work or plan ahead of time ā don't be me) this might be one of my favourite one yet especially considering it "only" took 3 hours.
I'm gonna go be deceased for a bit before having to start this all over again tomorrow.

My first entry for @flufftober 2024! Day 4 - Market Day!
Summary:
When Xie Lian and Hua Cheng visit a bustling day market, Xie Lian becomes wistful of days past, especially of the markets that had existed within his fallen kingdom. Hua Cheng cannot resist anything to lift Xie Lianās spirits, and thus, Hua Cheng decides to surprise his husband with something that will surely bring a smile upon Xie Lianās face.

dont delete that flop post yet king. you have to wait for your Freaky Mutual to wake up on the other side of the world
Weāre⦠friends, right?
Yes, we are.
Well, I need to ask you something. As my friend.
Oh?
Butāand I promise Iām not jokingāalso need to ask you something as⦠Ju Yang.
Oh?
So I have never struggled, as some people do, with my method of cultivation. Iāve never found another person attractive in the way people describe. Aesthetically, sure, but not⦠not carnally. Thatās never been something Iāve dealt with. Iāve never had to worry about such things.
There are plenty of people like you who also feel that way. Thereās nothing wrong with that.
Ah, but⦠thatās not what Iāve come to ask about.
Then what?
I understand those feelings. I understand how to live my life that way. What I donāt understand⦠what I canāt possibly fathom⦠is that it could change.
Mu Qing, are you saying thatā
Can such a thing change, Feng Xin? Iām dealing withāwith these feelings that are so out of my realm of understanding and I justā
What is it exactly that feels different? Is it that youāre now noticing others in ways you havenāt before?
Not others.
What?
Not⦠not multiple others. Just one person.
Ah, I think I may understand.
Oh?
I think you may be like me, Mu Qing.
In what way?
Let me ask you a question first.
Go ahead.
This person, are you very close to them?
Ah, yes. I am.
How close?
Quiteā¦
And when did you notice these feelings you harbor for them?
Recently. Within the past few months. But, I suspect Iāve felt this way for them much longer than even I have realized. It makes⦠sense, looking back at least.
I think you may indeed be like me then, Mu Qing.
Explain yourself.
Well, for me, I find that I donāt have the capacity to feel romantic or sexual feelings for others unless I have an incredibly strong bond with them. Thatās not to say I feel those things for everyone I have a strong bond with, just that the bond is a prerequisite.
Oh.
Yeah. Is that what you wanted to talk about or?
Well, yes, but⦠but alsoā¦
[Mu Qing swallows. Feng Xin furrows his brows and leans forward.]
I've changed my cultivation.
You⦠you did?
I did. And thatās where I need some⦠advice from Ju Yang.
Mu Qingā
Listen, I have looked through scrolls about howāabout how it all works and they justāwerenāt helpful. At all.
A-Qingā
I need to know more aboutā
First, tell me how the reading material was unhelpful. Are you looking for diagrams orā
No. No, I found plenty diagrams. Itās just that the material itself wasnātā¦applicable.
How so?
I could only find texts about⦠intimacy between two people of the opposite sex.
ā¦
ā¦
Oh. Oh, Mu Qingā
What? Justāstop looking at me like that, I justā
Youāre interested in a man?
ā¦
Yes.
And you changed your cultivation for him?
No, noāI did it for myself mainly. But⦠but also because I wish⦠to be able to offer myself in that way. Not because it's expected of me but because I truly wish to experience it.
And have you told him this? That you've switched cultivation methods?
Ah, it's hard to sayā¦
Have you even told him of your affections?
No. No, I haven't.
Why not?
I⦠I'm not confident he feels the same for me. I could make a fool of myself. I could be ridiculed.
But you said you're quite close to him?
Yes.
Anyone you're close to wouldn't dare to mock your feelings. There's really no sense in not confessing, when truly you have nothing to lose. Either you don't confess and you never know whether your feelings are returned, or you do confess and end up with an answer either wayāeven if it's not the outcome you're hoping for.
Even if he doesn't reciprocate, I'm sure he will be incredibly honored to have been the subject of the great General Xuan Zhenās affections.
[Feng Xin smiles, a bit teasing, but still with genuine care.
Mu Qing looks⦠torn. ]
Mu Qing?
Yes?
Who is he?
I⦠I canāt say.
Mu Qing.
Feng Xin?
Itās not Pei Ming, is it?
Oh gods no! No! What are you thinking!?
Then why wonāt you tell me?
ā¦
Mu Qing⦠I know him, donāt I?
Yes.
Then let me vet him. Or duel with him, at the very least.
What? Duel with him?
Yes! To determine if heās worthy of youāthough I can already assure you he isnāt. Of all the men I can think of who could reasonably be your beloved⦠none of them deserve you in the slightest, Mu Qing.
Itās you.
ā¦
Itās always been you, A-Xin.

Been thinking a lot recently about post-canon fengqing becoming very close friends, maybe within the first decade after canon. Mu Qing, after everything that happened, being a bit softer and more open to his friends, but especially to Feng Xin. And then Mu Qing realizing he has feelings for him... it makes me so soft š so I cleaned up this dialogue and wanted to share. I might expand on it later, we'll see š©·

Summary:
It was all Feng Xinās fault. It was all his own damn fucking fault. If he had noticed the ghostās hidden knife sooner. If he had acted quicker. If he hadnāt distracted Mu Qing by shouting. If he had flung himself in front of Mu Qing so the knife would plunge in his own chest. If he had realised the gravity of the injury faster, perhaps he could have⦠Could he have? * When a mission goes wrong and Mu Qing dies, Feng Xin searches for the ghost that is supposed to come haunt him.
