if all of xie lian's luck was sealed away so that his followers could get his share of it and hua cheng was his most (and most likely only) devoted believer in those 800 years and he's got really good luck....... do you. do you understand. do you understand what im trying to say here.

[rainthekittygirl]

I drew this stupid thing because of a short conversation I had with @th3-tr4sh-b0y about how hua cheng PROBABLY spent 800 years microdosing actual trash in preparation for Xie Lian's Treasured Royal Cooking. lmfao...

Edit: i fixed some of the colouring gaps

WHAT DOES IT FEEL, TO JUST LOOK AT EACH OTHER IN THAT LOVING SOFT GAZE WHILE LAYING BESIDE EACH OTHER. GAWD THIS IS TOO MUCH TO HANDLE JUST LOVING EVERYTHING ABOUT EACH OTHER. HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE NEAR EACH OTHER AFTER 800 YEA—

Hua Cheng really said luck may not be on his side but I AM, so if he loses that's against the rules because in MY city law is Xie Lian always wins at everything and the prize is anything he asks for. Argue with the wall or my scimitar and I respect that.

oh shit, it's 3/21/23, 32123, palindrome day

I roll my eyes so much when characters are like this until I realize this is probably the only way I'll ever get back into a relationship. I'm so damn awkward and clueless when it comes to flirting/romance irl that I probably won't clue in how serious things are until the wedding. 🤣

People call Heaven Official’s Blessing / TGCF a slow burn but Hua Cheng is literally courting Xie Lian like they are DATING. Slow burn who??? They’re sleeping next to each other on straw mats and Xie Lian’s offering to cook him dinner and they’re bantering across THE HOME THEY SHARE like a bunch of desperate hussys

San Lang LEAVES XL WITH A KEEPSAKE OF THEIR TIME TOGETHER SLOW BURN WHOMST

They have A DATE in HC’s armoury where they HOLD HANDS and XL pets San Lang’s quivering sword I-

Hua Cheng basically throws himself at this man he’s like you want a sword?? All of them ?? You want ALL THE SWORDS?? Fuck it take the whole room THE WHOLE ROOM JUST COME VISIT I WILL CLEAN THEM FOR YOU

Like he isn’t the king of a whole realm with shit to do

And this is just the first half of the first book—again I ask the world SLOW BURN WHOMST

What gets lost from the book’s message in trying to push monster!Hua Cheng as canon is not just that the message of Hualian’s romance is “I see you for who you are, at your best and worst, and I love what I see,” but also that Hua Cheng and Xie Lian are both just people. Xie Lian isn’t a bad luck charm capable of toppling kingdoms, and Hua Cheng isn’t some grotesque monster that nobody loves because they can’t look past the horrors. They were both once kids, then young men who were put through some of the worst trauma—but not unique!—imaginable and still came through the other side without losing themselves. They were and are people, and nothing about their traumas makes them inherently unloveable. There is nothing wrong with them. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ It just took someone willing to see them without shying away for them to experience the love they deserved.

last one for now, I was hoping to get 4 posters done total for AB but I've got work to do so the final one is on the shelf until I get more free time 😩

also this one was cute in my head but jeSUS MY HAND IS DEAD why did I decide to draw a show where everyone's wearing 4+ robes 🙃

[rainthekittygirl]

it will forever be funny to me how Xie Lian has scary dog privileges

Random Heaven Official: Holy shit it's the devastation Crimson Rain Sought Flower!!?!? WITH XIE LIAN!?!?

The whole heavenly Council: WHATS HE DOING?

Random Heaven Official: HE'S JUST STANDING THERE, MENACINGLY!!!!!!

Hua Cheng: *just happy to be there* :3

Xie Lian: It's fine he doesn't bite!

Hue Cheng: >:3

All of Heaven: AAAAAAAAAAAAA XIE LIAN GET YOUR DOG HE BITES HE FUCKIN BITES-

i do desperately need everyone on this website especially people who arent american but want to rag on america to familiarize themselves with the basic romanized spelling conventions of native american languages because every day i come on here and i see people making fun of massachusetts or connecticut or mississippi or passamaquoddy or mashpee or nipissing and its like PLEASE. PLEASE THEY ARENT ENGLISH WORDS. PLEAAAAASEEEEEUUUHHH. USE YOUR MINDS TO IDENTIFY WHEN A WORD LOOKS LIKE IT MAY NOT BE ENGLISH. I DONT CARE IF YOU MAKE FUN OF AMERICA JUST PLEASE STOP BEING RACIST WHILE YOU DO IT

Hua Cheng wearing wedding colours, Xie Lian wearing funeral colours

Hua Cheng's spiritual weapon being forged in a last desperate attempt to stay alive, Xie Lian's spiritual weapon being forged in a futile attempt to die

Hua Cheng who is dead and has died three times clinging to life with everything he has to the point where he became one of the most powerful ghosts in the world, Xie Lian who is immortal and literally can not die trying to kill himself and being self-sacrificing

Hua Cheng who loves life choosing to die for Xie Lian, Xie Lian who wants to die choosing to live for Hua Cheng (live as in actually enjoy living as opposed to being idle and suffering)

[rainthekittygirl]

Something about the way Crimson Rain Sought Flower, known for instilling fear in all heavenly officials at the mere mention of his name, who, throughout this encounter, projected nothing but carefree wit and easy charm, faltered at Xie Lian’s touch of his hand for a mili-second.

Nothing fazes Hua Cheng. Except when Xie Lian gets hurt. Or near.

Hua Cheng is textbook 近情情怯 hehehe. And 近情情怯 to the max because it’s towards someone whom he’d loved, revered, and desired in equal measure for hundreds of years.

Corroborating evidence: MXTX once said in a Q&A that San Lang shook off Xie Lian’s hand immediately because he both loves and respects him too much and is deeply concerned that any physical contact would lead to excessive excitement and mistakes…

He is just … 🥹
