🥀IN BLOSSOM🥀
This "In Blossom" fanart was requested by @yletylyf as part of the "Cdrama Gotcha for Gaza" (@cdrama-action)! The prompt requested to show pan yue's suffering fashionista side, so I chose my favorite outfit of his!
prompt: anything Pan Yue! Maybe highlighting his fashion sense, or his dramatic flair, or how he suffers so beautifully. (I don't have a preference between graphic, vid, or art, creator's choice!). Alternatively, just anything In Blossom for fanart.

Cdramas have insane lack of upcoming schedules, even more insane censorship, and parts of fandoms that are downright terrifying but what other industry is going to give us:
(1) what if God was a gorgeous trolling sub who fell in love with his pet chicken?
(2) what if we rebel against heaven while wearing fur and bondage gear, with our hero being a demigod prince turned mine slave with the power of the monochrome and his OTP a magic crystal in human form?
and
(3) what if the most gorgeous man in the empire had a beloved dead wife who came back in the body of his stalker?
As shows airing AT THE SAME TIME!
It is like the fanfic authors of my dreams actually getting their hands on enormous budgets to put their wildest ideas into reality!

The historical inspiration behind In Blossom’s Pan Yue
From Wikipedia (english version):
Pan Yue (Chinese: 潘岳; 247–300), courtesy name "Anren" (安仁), was a prominent Chinese fu poet in the Western Jin dynasty. He is popularly referred to as Pan An (潘安) and was well known for his good looks from a young age. "Pan An" has become the Chinese byword for handsome men.
The drama chose Liu Xueyi, known for his beauty in costume dramas, to play Pan Yue:
From Wikipedia (Chinese version):
三十余岁担任河阳县令,下令全县种桃花,有“河阳一县花”之称。
When he around 30 years old, he became the magistrate of Heyang County, ordered the whole county to plant peach blossoms, and was known as "the flower of Heyang County".
In the drama, Pan Yue buries his wife in a patch of peach blossoms near Heyang:
潘岳是中国历史上有名的美男子,据《世说新语》所载,潘岳每次外出,都会有不少女子手牵手地围着他的车子,又向他的车子投掷水果。成语“掷果盈车”即来自于此典故。
Pan Yue is considered one of the most famous handsome men in Chinese history. According to Shishuo Xinyu (A New Account of the Tales of the World, a 4th century anthology of biographical stories about scholars, musicians, and artists of the 2nd-4th centuries): every time Pan Yue went out, women would surround his carriage and throw fruits at him.
Here is how the drama recreated this famous episode:
妻:杨氏,元康八年(公元298年)去世。潘岳对亡妻甚是怀思,著有《内顾诗二首》、《杨氏七哀诗》、《哀永逝文》、《悼亡诗》等。
Wife: Madam Yang, died in the year 298 AD. To express his grief, Pan Yue wrote [a series of famous mourning poems that I am too lazy to translate].
Here is our fictional Pan Yue reciting an excerpt from one of the mourning poems historical Pan Yue wrote for Madam Yang:

I still am not over the choice to turn parts of pan yue's hair white. He's menacing, he's merciless, yes yes, it's what he portrays outwardly, but also visible to everyone else are those streaks of white, his grief in full display, and not a single person thinks he is mourning his dead wife. He is cunning and secretive, but not with this. He could've dyed it back to black, but he doesn't, and so displays his greatest heartbreak, and no one sees this vulnerability.
