MXTX Side Characters Lower Bracket

Mu Qingfang from SVSSS

Submission: Ppl tend to completely forget he has a mad scientist side (see Jinlan arc) and if he gets into the tournament I'll have a reason to bring it up. 

Additional Propaganda

Pei Ming from TGCF

One of the Three Tumors - three Heavenly Officials that have some of the worst reputations after Xie Lian (“the laughing stock of the three realms”) - due to his EXTENSIVE manwhore ways. Like, when the ghost mother of a fetus spirit claims her child is/was the child of a Heavenly Official, EVERYONE thinks it’s him. What can he say, his reputation precedes him

taking a moment to remember how much i love cql. best cast most delightful budget allocation choices. was it perfect? no. did the script enable every single actor as they jointly pretend that their character is the protagonist and we just happen to be watching the wangxian cut? yes. future adaptations should maintain this energy it works so well. also i think it has my favourite nhs. he tried to stage manage wei wuxian's reintegration into the cultivation world! the scene where he crashes the jiang reunion is so good.

#my most controversial opinion is that every single mxtx adaptation would be best as an ensemble and this is in fact a compliment to mxtx #and her reliably excellent side characters #my second most controversial opinion is that cql doesn't actually dumb down mdzs that much it's just interested in different questions

MDZS: gives us a perfectly happy, wonderfully written WangXian that hits all the Good™ Romance™ tropes while keeping the development grounded and genuine.

Me: *crying, instead, over Jiang Cheng/Nie Huaisang and Nie Mingjue/Meng Yao (Jin Guangyao)/Lan Xichen, clutching them tightly to bosom over the (also fantastically written) tragedy of their past traumas ripping them apart and leaving them scarred and alone and bitter without any supports to lean on*

#mxtx deserves all the awards for creating such fleshed out and compelling side characters and antagonists and deuteragonists #the biggest tragedy of mdzs is watching the slow trainwreck of these outside characters be destroyed #as main couple wangxian get the redemption and happy ending they absolutely deserve #i don't know how I'm going to survive the other two series tgcf and svsss #jiang cheng #nie huaiseng #lan xichen #nie mingjue #meng yao #jin guangyao #wei wuxian #lan wangji #mdzs #sangcheng #chengsang #3zun #nielan #xiyao #nieyao

I decided there was no such thing as “too soon” when it comes to rewatching Heaven Official’s Blessing and lemme tell ya. The show is, impossibly, better now that I already know what’s going on.

#fu yao and nan feng are even more hilarious when I am now completely aware they are dumbasses with terrible disguises #like yea I was suspicious when I first watched the show because yea.. but I kinda assumed it was just bad character design #but now?? knowing it’s just feng xin and mu qing being stupid?? my sides are splitting #and the scene at the end of ep 1 where hua cheng tells the backstory of Xie Lian is beautiful with the pre knowledge of their history #i just love them so much #xie lian #hua cheng #hualian #heaven official's blessing #tian guan ci fu #tgcf #mxtx tgcf #tgcf donghua #fengqing

[steampunk-swamp]

sometimes i think about how yin yu could be giving the entire cast the side eye throughout the entire narrative and we'd just never know

#(just kidding hes always giving the entire cast the side eye. have you seen what he has to put up with) #my art #tgcf #tgcf fanart #tian guan ci fu #tgcf yin yu #was not expecting him to be the first mxtx character id make fanart of #but yknow what. he deserves it

[komaneko-kun]

people say feng xin is the normal one like he doesn't always act like no matter how much he's hurt or worn-out it's "nothing"

#what's gonna happen if you let down your guard down fx hm?? #i'm poking his brain #listen i'm completely aware that he's a side character but i can tell he's very much not ok just from the few times the focus is on him #this goes beyond loyalty like do u guys get me...does anyone see it #feng xin #tgcf #mxtx #dianxia only should worry about his cultivation it's ok if nobody worries or cares abt me!! ! !GET HELP

My unpopular opinion is that TGCF is the weakest out of all MXTX books (maybe because she didn’t get to edit it until recently unlike the other two). I still love it and it’s an amazing piece of work but as a narrative, its structure is not as strong as the other two (though I think TGCF is stronger in other regards)

#mdzs is strongest obviously #it has the most consistent story and flows the best #one problem tgcf has (which pains me to call a problem) #is too much focus and information on side-characters #ofc everyone including me loves that we know so much of everyone and got so much of them #but looking at it through narrative lens it ends up making the story messier #mdzs also has a lot of side characters but they feel balanced according to their role #like imagine if we got as much information on nhs nmj jzx oyzz ljy and all the other obscure side characters as we did for jgy and xy #that’s tgcf #which i love because all the characters are so complex and very dear to my heart (I don’t think i disliked a single one) and their parallels #but argubly we didn’t need them all (even though I wouldn’t change it because i like having them all) #don’t get me wrong it’s still an amazing novel and i enjoyed it a lot #and it’s not fair to judge it because it’s unedited #but i think it’s worth talking about #tgcf #tian guan ci fu #heaven official's blessing #mxtx

[the-golden-mango-of-discord]

the worst crime this fandom ever committed was forgetting about the original lang ying. mxtx did not write an impoverished, grief-stricken man carrying his dead baby on his back for days just to find him a decent resting place, a man who acts as a tragic mirror to xie lian’s own wealth and the personification of the futility of his good intentions, a wholly sympathetic character who takes up the mantle of yong’an rebel general to take down the useless xianle royalty, a man whose motivations are so pure that in another story he would be the protagonist, who even after he assured yong’an’s victory and was established as king himself, never got what he wanted bc all he wanted was his dead wife and child back, who denied xie lian his unrighteous vengeance bc he was already dead and dying, only for the entirety of the tgcf fandom to never talk about him again

#tgcf #lang ying #xie lian #tian guan ci fu #i will NEVER forgive yall for forgetting about arguably one of the most tragic well-crafted a complex characters of the entire novel #of every mxtx novel actually!!!! #cannot understate how much that scene in book 2 of lang ying burying his child ruined me as a person #blorboposting #yeah i believe in book 2 supremacy its themes and emotional beats are fucking insanity-inducing #lang ying is the very essence of the antagonist with a Good Damn Point!!!!!! he was not wrong about anything the xianle royal family IS #corrupt and useless and blind to the suffering of its own people and helpless to help them besides!!!!! #will never get over the way mxtx wrote the fall of xianle. if ever there was a more justified revolution. and YET. both sides are so #incredibly sympathetic. xl's parents are not good rulers he admits this himself. and YET. how could he choose not to fight on the wrong side #he was raised on that side. that's all he's ever known. and that's why lang ying can't trust him regardless of his good will. bc in the end #he's still rich and he still does not understand his own limits. so revolution it is #GODS mxtx was INSANE for THAT how did we just let her DO THAT

MXTX Side Characters Lower Bracket

Ning Yingying from SVSSS

Submission: Her glow-up in the SVSSS timeline is real! Instead of becoming Luo Binghe's childhood sweetheart, she roasts him for referring to her too familiarly. Love this for her. 

Wen Qing from MDZS

Submission 1: Doctor, mad scientist, war criminal, protective big sister... she has the range!!

Submission 2: Wen Qing my beloved!! She did surgery on a grape. Mad genius for real. Also a loving sister with a very sharp tongue and maybe no sense of how far is too far. Can't wait for them to find her alive in a Koi Tower basement!

Submission 3: Justice for my girl!!!! 

Submission 4: She's bitchy and pragmatic and cares deeply and did an unprecedented operation (experimental and nonconsensual!), what's not to love? Also she deserved better.

when one of them has an arguably higher social status (like, they're both well-known and respected but one is just COMPLETELY on another level)

but the canon makes it so very crackingly clear that they are BOTH so incredibly whipped for each other, there is zero one-sidedness in this relationship lol

love 020 (denounce the cringe all you want (and also the scandals oml), but you can't deny they do really go for the both-these-characters-are-SO-whipped-for-each-other angle)

solangelo (well-liked camp medic vs Literally The Hero, and make of that dynamic what you will ig)

wangxian. just. them. yeah

there IS another example I just can't think of it right now I'll come back to this

Singing together

Ling Wen: When everyone believes you

Mian Mian: What's that like?

Wen Qing: I'm so sick of running

Jiang Yanli: As fast as I can

Madam Yu: As fast as I caaan

A-Qing: Wondering if

Meng Shi: I'd get there quicker

Xuan Ji: If I was a maaaan

Shi Qingxuan, deadpan: You won't.

The MXTX girls, shocked: .........

Shi Qingxuan with a sigh, flipping their hair: Take it from me, girls. It ain't worth it.

Wen Qing: Most of us died awful deaths and lived miserable lives.

Shi Qingxuan: Okay, but did you get tortured?

The MXTX girls, stunned: ........

Wei Wuxian, Hua Cheng, Bai Wuxiang: On repeat

The MXTX girls, looking on in pity: ........

Xie Lian and Bai Wuxiang: No matter how much you begged and screamed for mercy.

Madam Lan, horrified: Damn son.

Xiao Xingchen: Yeah, we all have it tough in this universe.

A-Qing, speaks up: Okay, but I got tortured.

Pei Ming, horrified Damn child, how old are you, 12?

Bai Wuxiang: What kind of monster would do such a thing?

Xue Yang, offended: Seriously? From you?

Bai Wuxiang: Xie Lian might have been 17 in body but he spent three years in heaven so I at least waited for him to get legal before messing him up. Bitch was at least 20 when he caught these hands.

Xie Lian: That doesn't make it any better you sick bastard!

#mxtx said gender equality #except for happy endings #women got the same shitty ending with every last side character 💀 #Mian Mian is the golden exception #I cannot speak for svsss #haven't read it #incorrect mxtx #incorrect mdzs quotes #incorrect tgcf quotes #incorrect quotes

[noinobonoto]

I really dislike it when people make wei wuxian dumb in fanfics just so other characters seem smarter

Ofc it's fanfiction so it doesn't really matter and I firmly believe anyone is allowed to write even the most ooc bs ever because that's what fanfics are for, to do whatever the hell you want, so that's a slight to no one and just me putting my thoughts out there

So yeah, I'm not saying wei wuxian has to be the smartest, the genius and the prodigy, especially if it's not about him, but he IS very intelligent and making him act stupid and not in a playful way but in serious situations where he is making things worse or depending on others to explain obvious things to him is really weird and feels as if an author either didn't understand his character or just doesn't like him

And again, it's weird for me bc all the time I'm saying that fanfics are for writing whatever you wish but at the same time... sometimes I just want to complain a bit about things I hate 😅

#mdzs #wwx #wei wuxian #i love him a lot and he is a very smart boy #also saw a tweet today that many people actually don't like wei ying all that much and I'm like no way 😟 #ofc not everyone will like him #that's obvious for every character ever #but the post made it seem like compared to other main mxtx characters he is less liked #idk if that's true but if it is i want to know why?? #is it bc of his canon character or some fanon misinterpretation? or just the main character syndrome #bc i won't lie there are some shows where i dislike the main character just bc they are the main character #and my side bitch isn't getting all the attention #bloom winx club that one is for you #that's like half a joke lmao but it is like that sometimes when you like side characters more #but i love wwx so much and it's hard to imagine him being unlikeable #that's not to say that the making him stupid thing is only for ppl not into him #bc I've seen it happen in wwx-centric fics as well #yeah.... not a fan #and that's enough existing on the internet for today

I feel very deeply about Yushi Huang. I was foaming at the mouth reading a god had the moniker “The Princess Who Slit Her Throat” and then didn’t get brought up again for hundreds of pages
