“san lang.. do you wish to meet my mother?”
hua cheng meeting his husbands mother!
_______________________________________________
╔══ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══╗
my personal cute thoughts of what i think it would be like if hua cheng/san lang met xie lians mother.♡
there are no warnings, my dear lotus.
this isn’t a x-reader, so there’s no gender to mention.❀ 〜
a/n : well, well… it’s my first time writing for tgcf, wish me luck. my apologies if something is ooc〜! if you know, you’re probably thinking, “but xie lians mother..?” - - yes i know, but what if, my dear〜 i got the inspiration from someone on twitter!

i didn’t know whether to use a picture of san lang or hua cheng… you can imagine either!
oh my goodness!!!!
hua cheng would probably freeze up at the thought of that.
he does want to meet her yes, but what if he messes something up?!
xie lian would reassure him and tell him his mom is lovely〜
she would be so supportive!!! so happy to know that someone loves her son just as much as she does♡〜
most likely would be skeptical at first, it’s only her motherly instincts trying to protect her son〜
…your husband is… the ghost king..? a calamity..? feared by the heavens..?? ..well if you like it, i love it!
i think she would get over that quickly given the fact that xie lian would reassure her heavily that his precious san lang would never hurt him. 
i believe she would be intrigued in why hua cheng loves her son, and listen to every detail with a lovely smile.
“im happy to hear your reasonings for loving my son. but as my son in law, i would love to know you on a more personal level, and welcome you into the family.”
you already know hua cheng would be so respectful! 
bowing to her often, calling her the most respectful titles, cooking for her, opening doors for her, bringing her gifts and paintings he made of her, helping her with anything she needs, and more!
could even make xie lian jealous〜
the more they get to know eachother, the more motherly she becomes with him. treating him with the same, if not just as much love she treats him with xie lian.
i have a feeling hua cheng wouldn’t exactly want her to call him “hua cheng”. would he want her to call him “san lang” too? 
definitely she would be the type of mother to watch the two lovebirds in the back, just adoring them from afar♡
i feel like by accident, she would embarrass xie lian a couple times.. hua cheng will have to reassure him that it’s okay! 
“my queen of xianle, it was a honor to meet you. i promise to protect you and your son, xie lian. gege, thank you.”
overall, they two of them would bond heavenly, and would thank xie lian for such a wonderful opportunity〜
ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻ੈ✩‧₊˚ ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻ੈ✩‧₊˚
Tumblr media
this was incredibly easy and fun to write! super cute aswell〜 apologies of something is ooc though, i’m still new to tgcf but want to indulge in the fandom! i hope you all enjoyed this too, my precious flowers❀ 〜

The problem is when you’re writing a novel you are never not writing The Novel. Every moment of your life is taken up by The Novel.

I read MTXT’s novels before they became “really” popular and I’m ecstatic about the official translation but I’m also in the mode of “oh I’ve read these before, I’m so cool” which is so stupid, especially as they’re now translating novels I want to read and haven’t yet so I don’t know what’s going on…..

So, this is my first post, so hello everyone! I don't really know how to properly navigate this platform just yet, but I'm sure I will figure it out, so please bear with me.
Having said that, unfortunately, I've come here today to rant a little on social media about things that make me borderline insane just from listening to. Most specifically, from MTXT's works. (Because if I ever see another wrong characterization for those fictional people I've became very attached to, I'm actually going to go mad.)
(This is not meant to be an attack of any sorts, I'm just a teenager on social media pulling my nerves into writing because who knows, maybe I can finally be at peace then.)
Let's start then!
Xie Lian is not owo small cutie or sum, and if I hear that one time... my man may be short, but he could fight off almost anyone, just thanos clapping people out of existence. He's also very insane and very horny about the Calamity attached to his hip. My guy is pretty smart and also just kinda gives patient auntie vibes (you know, that auntie that can see beyond everyone's bull but choses not to).
And if I already started with TGCF, may as well continue with it. Hua Cheng is a switch and you can't convince me otherwise. (If his Dianxia wanted to top, he would be as elated as he would be if Dianxia wanted to bottom. My man doesn't care.)
Luo Binge being referred as a white lotus and people not knowing what it means ("In Chinese internet novels, the term "white lotus" refers to a character who appears innocent, naive, and pure on the surface but uses this reputation to backstab, blame, or sling mud on others.") (I believe maybe people confuse this with the other meanings of the white lotus, like, actually naive or pure in character, but those are obliviously not what they mean in the chinese novels)
Shen Yuan is Kim Dokja, but chinese (or maybe KD is SY but korean)
Lan Wangji did not like Wei Wuxian despite him being 'evil', he loved him exactly because he isn't evil. I can't stress this enough. If wwx was a actually bad person, lwj would not hesitate to cut his head off and be done with the matter. Whenever I see someone saying something about him liking wwx even if he's evil, I'm slowly loosing my mind, bcz no, lwj is not such a shallow person, to be attracted to someone based purely on looks (and we do know this bcz he loves wwx in mxy's body just as much as he loved him in his original body.)
Now, we're moving into a territory I like exploring. I just want to start this off saying that I don't like Jiang Wanyin. I just don't care very much about him and I find him annoying as a person. With that being said, I'm a little miffed with fellow jc dislikers bcz they sometimes invent some things up about him or such shenanigans. Like. Man, you do not need to invent things to hate abt him, there are already plenty of them. I'm pretty unbiased when it comes to actual judgements about others. I will protect someone if the points made about them is incorrect as much as I will point out every thing they actually did bad.
And the next point is still abt jc (wow, what a surprise) just bcz, honest to god, a lot of his fans are straight up annoying. I've said it. A lot of y'all are hella annoying. (Not to say that there exist a lor of annoying fans for other characters, it's just that jc has a very high number of them) Some of the ones I don't find bad are those that like him just becouse of how bad of a person he is. I can respect that. What I can't respect is another owo he's innocent and traumatized and a tsundere and everything is wwx's fault owo jc fan. Fam, did we read the same book, or has media really rotten our colective brain that much??
(I believe I have more comments on this jc topic, but my brain is starting to hurt.)
And the last one is Wei Wuxian, probably the most controversial character in all of MTXT's novels. First of all, I have to be clear about this, but in all of this post, I'm purely referring to the characters from the books, not the other adaptations. This is important, bcz the adaptations further skewed wwx's image in the fandom.
I have saved him for least because of just how much things tick me off in this fandom when discussing wwx in special.
Disclaimer that I sincerely believe that you should enjoy and do art and fanfiction of characters however you want. If you want wwx to be, idk, a demon that terrorizes people and breaks lwj's heart and then jc comes and saves the situation from the evil patriarch and then french kisses Lan Xichen, then go ahead, idc (Unless you say he's owo, you have no excuse that would allow you to do that unless you're a child, and if you are, then you shouldn't even be here). But I draw the line when people lie about canon characterizations.
And there is just so much misconceptions on wwx's character that I would need an essay just to compose a list of them. They range from huge details that somehow miss people like how their neurons miss firing, to small details, like his handwriting (I believe the novel said it was cursive, not messy, like how almost all the fandom has apparently mutually agreed on. Do corect me if I'm wrong on this, some things are lost from translation to translation)
I will be discussing just some of them here. Maybe I will do another post where I go in more detail, we will see.
ADHD Wei Wuxian. The people that believe wwx has ADHD should probably reread the novel, bcz that characterization comes mostly from CQL. In the novel, wwx is a very chill guy that can stay in one place perfectly fine. I will not go into more details, just read the novel.
Wei Wuxian is the reason for the Jiang's collapse. Bull statement, everytime I see it, well, I go a little more insane. If you know a little politics, you would realize the Jiangs were next on the list for sure. Why, you would ask. The Lans already burnt themselves to the ground. The Nies have a fortress for a sect. The Jins are almost-not-exactly allies with the Wens. Now, guess who is the most unfavorably positioned gentry sect (lakes are not a good strategic spot), with lax protection (how did the Wens just march in like that like what) and a little too carele leader (Jiang Fenmiang really thought the Wens will give them back the swords after that whole disaster that was the indoctrination? Really??). Oh! I think I know who it is! And maybe you guessed it too. Glad we're on the same page.
Now, wwx being the reason why jc lost his core. Very many people already came to their own conclusion on why jc gave himself up. Brotherly affection, suicidal thoughts or just straight up idiocy. Whatever you believe, it's fine with me (but I do have a brother and I can assure you, wwx and jc never really seemed like brothers to me. They are a little too far to the left to be considered brothers, but this is my opinion, take it however you will). So, was it wwx's fault?
We're finally getting into the juicy stuff. The blame game. I hate it with my being, still, as long as I'm in fandoms, I must persist. My answer is yes & no. Did wwx deliberately made it so jc would be captured? Of course not. Did it still happened? Unfortunately, yes. To go deeper, we will look a little at fate. There are some things that are outside of our control. As much as we prepare, some things will still blow us over. So the definite answer is no. Jc made the decision to be seen by the Wens. It might sound callous , but the decisions you make are yours, even if you protect someone's life or not. Wwx did not ask to be protected. In conclusions, it's not his fault.
And that is a very good statement to make, seeing as we got to the core transfer. People often criticize wwx for giving non-consensualy his core to jc. I always thought it as a weird thing to hate him about, but whatever, I still shall address it. I will start with an exemple. If you loved someone very much, and they would die if they don't get, idk, a new arm (maybe think of something less inconspicuous, but you understand the ideea) they would die. You are the single person that can do it. But you're sure that if someone told your loved one that you would give it, they would refuze it. Are you still going to give your arm? Will you let your loved one die? Knowing that you can help?
And for those that say jc was not on the brink of death. He was suicidal. He would not have resisted a week with the shame of inferiority plus all the trauma that the Lotus Pier massacre was, combined. 'Regaining' his core might have actually made him feel better, like he beat the odds, like he has another chance. That's also why wwx never told him he gave him his core. Bcz he knew jc would not take it easy, finding out that all his accomplishments were thanks to wwx's sacrifice. Because jc has a big ego that's clearly evident through the story.
Anyways, let's continue.
Ghostly Cultivation. It's more popularity used the Demonic Cultivation term, but they are not the same think for Christ's sake. Modao Zushi does mean The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, however the title is for click bait. In the actual novel, I believe wwx talks abt ghostly cultivation, not demonic. It was probably lost in translations.
I don't think I need to explain how wwx needed guidao to escape the Burial Mounds, so at least half of my job is already done. Now I go into dangerous territory however, bcz guidao is not expended upon. Still, I would rather listen to wwx when it's about, you know, the path he himself created?
To explain my stance, we would need to go deeper into the novel's points. A novel can have multiple themes, ranging from obvious ones, like love, family, to obscure ones, like, the importance of standing up for oneself (not the best exemple, but I believe y'all understand what I mean).
I'm someone that loves thinking abt MDZS. It's my dearest. So, I tend to analyze it pretty often. And the themes I usually get are things like 'the danger of hearsay and mob mentality', 'the importance of standing true to your ideals', 'the inherit unpredictability of life' and so on, and so on.
Anyways, what does that have to do with guidao? Well, everything, I believe. The MDZS world has a mentality resembling that of the curent China. Or well, the China of when MXTX wrote the novel. If you know some history, I believe you can connect the similarities. What does that mean then?
Wwx is someone that does not fallow the path set by the ancestors. He creates his own. When the cultivators see that, they are revolted. Becouse everything that strays from the 'right' path must surely be evil. And so, after Wen Ruohan, the Jins paint him as the new anarchist, and the rest is history.
Now, I would actually love to continue, but I've been typing nonstop for hours now, I need to stop. I will continue my points in another post, bcz I still have a lot of them.
Thanks for reading, and have a wonderful day 💐

 PIDW is sus in regards to what was actually going on, because by MXTX standards from the other novel that did cultivation sect stuff in detail, the things that happened to Luo Binghe at Qing Jing were... actually pretty light? By in-universe standard?
As for the thing at the end regarding punishments and what not: PIDW is told from Luo Binghe's POV, it's going to be biased. We know from other MTXT novels that beating Disciples for the slightest of infractions is not uncommon. How many times did both Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian get hit with wooden paddles just for being out past curfew? By modern standards a lot of what would happen to Disciples on a cultivation peak are horrific. What Shen Jiu does to Luo Binghe is also pretty bad, but still in keeping with that 'reasonable' standard for the worldsetting. It's only framed as unreasonable because its coming from Binghe's POV. Kind of like how he viewed Shen Jiu as lecherous and pedophilic despite the fact that the extras revealed he was just awkwardly trying to show parental affection to Ning Yingying but not knowing how because he never had a parent, or frequenting brothels purely to hang out with a bunch of aunties and get a good night's sleep. The novels state that Binghe's physical punishments were kneeling and getting beaten by other disciples, and manual labour at this point. I don't remember if the punishments escalate though but I'm pretty sure the 'whipping' in the woodshed thing was a fanon invention - a bit like how Qiu Jianluo was incestuous for his sister. He didn't want her to leave the household but I don't remember there being anything sexual said regarding it, and there's nothing on the wikia about it either.
Just to be clear, I'm not condoning anything, I'm just saying: LBH's POV is biased and flawed as fuck.

Is that a fellow tgcf/mtxt fan I see? 👀 who's your favourite character? (Any novel)
yesss i like all of it— the Untamed was my first introduction to danmei in general (even though the live action “isn’t gay”). I’ve basically finished all of them in some capacity, and my brain chemistry hasn’t been quite the same since LOL
my faves are shi qingxuan, xie lian and he xuan in tgcf. I think I relatively like everyone in mdzs the same amount, with lwj being slightly above for whatever reason
liu qingge and luo binghe are my faves in scum villain

Some people really need to understand the difference between BAD WRITING and DECISIONS I DON'T LIKE -
For example, if BNHA kills off All might, it's a decision i will not like (at all) and make the manga drop from my top 5 to top 10. I hate the trope of the mentor being killed off, i like the trope of challenging fate and destiny and i like when there's a prophecy and the prophecy ends up being slightly wrong or still right but in a way that is different (foe example all might "dies" not the man but the hero/peace symbol) BUT is it bad writing if the author still does that ?
NOPE. It fits the themes the author put in his manga, it helps build tension / suspense during the last arc of his story, it gves the hero a despair pushes the feel of doing everything he could to save the ones he loves and still failing. It's a decision that has been prepared and built up for several tomes now. It is GOOD WRITING.
Another example, i really don't like JGY's fate at the end of MDZS, yet it fits the core themes of the novel, it gives a parallel with the hero's fate and makes a narrative loop with the first line "Yay WWX is dead!!"
It gives a pessimistic view of the world, of the mod of the actual power of changing the world either via rebellion (WWX) or via override (JGY) and it suggests as long as the world has made its decision about you, there's little to nothing you can do about it.
Do i like this idea? No. It makes me sad and pessimistic. Is it bad writing. HELL NO. This is brilliant writing and while i would rather have the bastard son who had nothing stay on top of the world...This is not the kind of story MTXT wanted to tell. She is not giving us a successful storyline, selling us the american's dream. She also decided to not go the road of children repeat parent's mistake and goes into that parallel and loop, with LXC saving JGY the same way his father "saved" his mother. It's a decision the author made and that's FINE.
BAD writing would be making that decision without OWNING the themes that goes along with it, without exploring it and making that vicious circle/loop/parallel in the narrative. Bad writing would be take this decision without direction and ending it up that way for free/shock drama only. IT IS NOT BAD WRITING EVEN IF YOU DOn'T LIKE IT.
But that's okay that's what FANFICs are for. You don't like the decision / the direction the story went? go find people who think the same on the internet and wrote the end of the story they wanted to see, or better write it yourself; That way maybe you'll see what writing is like and change your mind (or not).
Anyways just a post about me raging because i saw someone say HB is badly written when the show has kept all the promises / tone and same pacing as his first pilote episode and i'm pissed by such blatant and ignorant statement.

About tgcf (Heavens official blessing)
Tumblr media
A novel from MTXT, it's a global phenomon that gained adaptations in the form of: manhua, dongha (second season soon), audiodrama and live action (still in production)
We follow the story of Xie Lian (in the gif), a formor crown prince of the kingdom of Xian Le. As a formor martial god, he used to live on Earth until one day he ascended for the third time ( :0 ) and has to help the heavens to pay his debt caused by the damage of other heavens officials during XL ascending (have I mentioned XL is known for being extremelly unlucky?)
During the first arch we meet some other characters and get to know better the world of tgcf: The calamities and other officials
Pay attention to these names cause you'll see them a lot: Nan Feng, Fu Yao, Hua Cheng, San Lang, Mu Qing, Feng Xin, Jun Wu, Pei Ming, Ban Yue...
Tumblr media
There are five original books, but they are a fast read when you're invested (like I was)
Without adding spoilers, you will see the mysteries of this world and their characters get untagled throughout the archs, you will be surpised with the character developments and the major plot twists
A soft bl story, their love story is definetely one of the most beautiful ones I have ever read about, it's really deep and true, (oh to have a relationship so faithful like theirs!)
But bear in mind that it's not all fluff, the characters stories are really complex, there are even some TW for major injuries, su!c!d3, g3noc!d3, and gor3. Rember folks, our xie lian is a martial god, he's super strong and is a specialist at swordmanship.
I guarantee, it's a balanced read (excpet book 4, oops) with amazing lore, powerfull battles, a little bit of comedy, romance and quite suffering.
Tumblr media
*image from the manhua, available on billibilli
If you're interested, I don't recommend searching more about it on tags, otherwise you'll get spoilers!!
In the US there's already official publications of the novel, but not in south america (as I'm aware of). I believe plenty of countries in Europe already have their official books.
Hope you enjoyed it and that you'll become a fan of this amazing series!
*pardon me if I made some grammar mistakes :)

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
Who said it? Who said that heavenly official blessings is a very good, funny, romantic novel? I must have lost my mind to think that. MtXt should try writing a horror!
Danm it! Disgusting!
I want to cry ! Poor Xie Lian! Poor san lang!
Chapter 190 is even more disturbing than Tender is The Flesh.
God hundred people stabbing a poor man. And giving excuses to justify it! And you know what? I can't even pretend that it's a fiction, impossible to happen in real life. Because human are capable of anything to save their own skin. Fuck! I can't read this anymore. No, I need to read this. To know there is a happy ending.

🎋A Shizun in the making! 🪷 I’m thrilled to share my current costume progress of Chu Wanning from the danmei novel “ErHa” or “Dumb Husky And His White Cat Shizun” in honor of his birthday!! Yes it is August 9th in China already! I have been planning and collecting materials for months but started sewing just in the last couple of weeks. The lil video shows the various layers coming together, the belt is a stand-in from my Lan Wangji costume, and there is still A LOT left to do. Yes it is ANOTHER all white hanfu 😆 but the overall look will be much more regal and formal than my last one. For Chu Wanning, I’m taking inspiration from the elusive mobile game designs and various official illustrations of the character but then throwing in my own design aesthetics as well. The ErHa novel is not as well/known as the MTXT works (or is it for the faint of heart) but it is the one that has left the deepest impression on me and I knew fairly early on that a Shizun cosplay would be inevitable. The novel had been licensed in English and the first volume will come out later this year so I hope more readers will get to experience the brilliance and core-cutting angst of ErHa. I think only Berserk has ever come close to this pain level for me lol Anyway - Happy Birthday, YuHeng Elder! More updates on my Wanning cosplay sooooon! #cosplayprogress #danmei #danmeicosplay #erha #2ha #dumbhuskyandhiswhitecatshizun #chuwanning #chuwanningcosplay #meatbundoesnteatmeat #二哈和他的白猫师尊 #二哈 https://www.instagram.com/p/ChAz8-rOmgn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On that SVSS and satire/mocking thing: I do feel MDZS was generally way better at playing around with BL tropes than SVSSS was with harem fantasy series, but it's really not down to any mean spiritedness, so you don't need to worry about that fellow anon. I think it's mainly due to 1) MTXT improving as an author and 2)Her probably actually liking BL stories and so coming to the tropes in them differently to Stallion Novels, which she probably doesn't.
yeah, I think this is spot on!

reading MDZS: omg, this guy’s been mourning his beloved for 11 years, that’s so sad and romantic, 10/10
reading TGCF: this guy’s been stalking a god for 800 years? simp. 100/10
