re-reading tgcf <3

new batch of xie lian memes but theyre just really sad and existential this time hahaa

Original Post

Love how the heavenly officials went, "Ling wen, your war crimes were no good very bad. As punishment we're employing you again, congrats. Go finish these reports by tomorrow."

I made these just after finishing season one of the donghua to laugh at with my friend I dragged into this hell with me, I have no clue how accurate they are but -I shove them into yalls arms and run away-

Quotes/text posts don’t belong to me ;;

One bonus one I made after learning about Xie Lians extensive trauma list:

In case you were ever in doubt...you are definitely gay, I can tell. I don't even need to know who's reading this, if you're here, youre gay.

It's okay, I am too.

Hua Cheng after the night when Mount Tonglu reopened: What happened?

Xie Lian: We had a fight… *quietly* with our mouths..

Hua Cheng: What was that last part?

Xie Lian: Nothing! I said nothing. We fought, that’s all

i’m both finishing the tgcf donghua that i started a while ago and never finished and rereading the book and like. i forgot just How pathetically in-love hua cheng is like. Man. it’s so fucking funny but also with context it makes me Feel things

good news: i finally figured out how to take screenshots of crunchyroll, so i can start making tgcf textpost memes and other rp icons probably!! i know you're all very excited

bad news: for some stupid reason my screenshot functionality keeps displaying the first screenshot i take, even after i've let the episode play for a bit longer and tried to screencap another scene?? what nonsense is this

anyway can anyone help me out 🥺 i'll make you.... something.... in exchange, idk, we can figure it out later

tgcf + tumblr text posts

the thing about the jun wu/xie lian centuries-long gaslight gatekeep situationship extravaganza is that its still SUBTLE. its still subtext. its "xianle" being both xie lian's heavenly title and literally meaning "heaven's (jun wu's) delight." its jun wu pulling xie lian out of a bow, but still expecting him to make that gesture of servility in the first place. its the altar scene being a rape allegory. its bwx burying xie lian's parents when he couldnt do it himself. its "your highness, look at you look what they've done to you." its jun wu administering the cursed shackles himself and having direct control over xie lian's body but only exerting that control after 800 years of it lying dormant. its making the curse of eternal life seem like a gift because xie lian can atone forever and ever and ever without end. with jun wu everything is a kindness except that kindness is always hiding a greater evil and with bwx everything is an evil hiding a more fucked up kind of kindness. etc etc

new love language dropped, sending my partner tgcf characters as textposts with captions such as "me" "we" "you"
