been thinking about the liyue gang and how id draw their physical builds so here are some thoughts i had for xy cy and gm in particular

- xingqiu, unsurprisingly, would be quite lanky. i like to think he has broad-ish shoulders, like a thin athlete's build? hes a long boy to me haha, long face, neck, limbs, fingers etc, so naturally hes stands (comparatively) tall at 5'6" or 5'7"

i like to think hes most physically attractive one and has that handsome princely and boyish charm to him because it adds a lot to his fuckass duality LOL

- chongyun is a lot like xiao imo! short stature but with muscular arms. he seems nimble and flexible because of his normal attack animations (which bears a lot of similarities to xiao's actually! this + the fact that chongyun's normal attacks create gusts of wind further reinforces my hc that xiao trains him). sometimes i watch high energy choreography vids on youtube and some dancers look incredibly light on their feet, almost like their body is inherently bouncy? and i imagine chongyun to have that agility to him. chongyun has a delicate face and aura and i let that bleed into my hcs for his fighting style and physical capabilities hahaha. hes kind of like a cat who's deceptively strong. as for height.. just a few inches taller than xiao, so perceptibly short at 5'4"

- ga ming my new beloved. pretty much similar to chongyun but more muscular and stronger just because he wields his claymore with ease. theres a noticeable weight different between cy and his claymore the way he lugs it up after he swings (or even other claymore users like razor who, on his last hit, bounces from impact). meanwhile ga ming literally slams his to the ground LOL. i love his movements though hes very swift and expressive and radiant.. if cy has delicate movements then ga ming's is fierce and (charmingly!) assertive

ga ming is wonderfully charismatic though, i know hes not well known in liyue harbor yet, but he seems like the type to gain a reputation from his friendliness. how could no one adore him hahaha. 5'5" for height! just between xy and xq

wow, its fluttering to know that you think about me 🥺😭 *sends virtual hug*

aaaaa your moms a kpop fan??? LIKE WOW, honestly thats smth you rarely get to see! but same (slight) hehe, my mom knows the groups i stan bc i always watch them in the living room. shes not really a fan but is familiar with a ton lot of kpop songs. its nice to watch it in a big ass tv 😎 but damn, your moms cool af lol THEN do you remember geonu? i really think that he has those all-rounder vibes ✨ such a shame that he didnt get to debut with enha but if im not wrong, hes part of the group just b i think? sometimes, i find his videos from i land just to watch it all again. hes really talented :>> i remember that i made a lot of accs to spam vote (LOL) since between all the trainees that i really really supported, he was the only one on a dangerous spot :< but im glad that he still reached his dream of debuting even if it wasnt with hybe.

3 days till the 16th ! im absolutely excited 🤩

AND OMG, genshin already update hehe. its childe s banner all over again. happy but i wished it was xiao :<< are you pulling for him? i finally got c6 chongyun (main dps) 🤩 and c4 yanfei. im really happy from what i got! on ayakas banner, i keep on getting ningguang and whats worse is that shes only on level 1 😭 i dont really use her huhu AND i remember spam wishing for baal. i did over like 40 rolls? and every single 10 pull, i got 1 4s and their all sucrose 😭 so i have no sara and no baal :<< the same thing happened with sayu. instead of her, i keep on getting the wrong child (??) - diona. im on about 60 something pity and im saving all of for xiao :3 even though theres no confirmed rerun of his. wbu? hows gambling on genshin so far?

AND how did your day go? i mainly did projects while school break and while IN class, i watched anime 😭😭😭 so just a really chill day lol i still have a ton of projects left but eeeeeeeeee ill do that tomo (its basically a cycle already 💀)

- 🤡

aww it’s just I appreciate you coming in to say hi all the time and talk so I sometimes wonder if you’ll send a message 🥺 *sends a hug back*

oh yeah all my friends know my mom got me into kpop haha 😂😂 but ye I do remember geonu personally he wasn’t one of my favorites, not for any bad reason or anything I just realized that even if I had watched back then I would’ve been biased to heeseung, sunoo and jungwon 😂😂 but yeah he’s a in a group now I believe it’s probably better this way for whatever reason it all worked out in the end !!

I GOT MY BOY! 😭😭😭

he was a pos and made me use a ton of my crystals but it was 100% worth 😭✌🏼 he’s so much fun and I’m gonna build him so good!! his build is pretty good for now and I’m happy 62% crit rate 147% crit dmg ✌🏼😔✨ hopefully I can get a hydro cup someday! 😭😭 I managed to get c4 chongyun!! I’m so happy he has more cons now 🙏🏼 and ended up with c6 yanfei finally and FINALLY FINALLY I got ningguang so now I have every 4* besides thoma soon 🙏🏼🙏🏼 I managed to pull mona since I lost my 50/50 too so I have every perma 5* now

omg sorry you didn’t get baal I was lucky and won my 50/50 and got her 😔🙏🏼✨ I hope you can get her next time and I wish I’d gotten another sara personally so I can have her c2 she’s not quite as fun without it 😭 I wish I could get sucrose to c6 she’s my bestest girl TvT

oooh! I hope you get xiao too then! my pity is back to 0 and I don’t really have time to save unfortunately 😂😂 I’m pulling for thoma on hu tao’s banner and then I’m getting my big best boy itto and gorou too so I’ve got a lot on my list! (I’ll throw a couple potential genshin things under the cut bc it’s genshin le/aks so scroll to the bottom if you wanna know)

My day today is wonderful!! pulling childe and going to the last island of inazuma has taken up my day and I’ve had so much fun 🙈🙈🙈🙈 other than that I spent time with my mom which was nice 🥰 I WISH YOU LOTS OF LUCK WITH YOUR STUDIES AS USUAL BUB!!!! ✨ have a good day/night and stay healthy!!

so some say albedo is the 2.3 rerun and xiao could be coming in 2.4 so keep an eye out. ofc take it with a grain of salt it could not be true but a lot of ppl say albedo is almost certainly the 2.3 rerun I think so I’m picking up all the geo boys in 2.3!!!! 🙈
