Some of my personal favorite parts of my Chaotic Minds - A TGCF Chat/Crack Fic
I am a proud multishipper 🧍♀️so what if I ship mulian huh
I don't think I need to explain this one
Hey 🫵I'm Canadian, I'm headcannoing Shi Qingxuan is half Canadian for this fic because yes. Anything goes in fanfiction
I've heard shit about Haunting Adeline.....of all things to shove up a girls pussy you use a GUN?????? 😒
And yes, Xie Lian and Qi Rong are friends in this fic, leave me alone.
.... I don't have to explain this 😌
All hail Mei Nianqing 🫡 hes a tired old man giving advice to his friends.
I think this explains itself no? Guzi has a lot of uncles in this story with Xianle Quartet being a couple, beefleaf as well, future JunMei, and last but not least QuanYin.
No because would it be fish mpreg or nah. Yin Yu is asking the right questions oh my goodness gracious.
I love CoryxKenshin gang.
So yeah "WhY are they So OoC!" Gang. I just wanna have fun and be silly, so what if they are out of character 😔 can't I be a silly goose? Quack quack.
Anyways I hope you enjoy!!
out of all of the genres tgcf could belong to
i always first think of it as a romantic comedy
Beefleaf fan animatic

Some wholesome lesbian beefleaf for the soul because my babies deserve to be happy <3
Ahhhh my poor beefleaf-loving heart 😭
This idea is so painful but so sweet at the same time, but isn’t that just beefleaf in a nutshell?
Every year, for the mid autumn festival, the crown prince of xianle is undefeated in the number and grandeur of thousands of glittering lanterns lifting to the sky in his honor. All the doing of crimson rain sought flower - and the god's growing number of believers.
But it seems that, without explanation, every year, 523 lanterns are lit for a god that has fallen. The number is always exact, but the god it is offered to has long disappeared. It is a great mystery.
"Palace of the Wind Master... 523 lanterns."
There is nobody to rejoice about it.
From a dark patch of sea, of grief, loss and bitterness, every year, 523 lanterns rise to the skies.
In my crying over beefleaf era where every couple weeks I will reread sections of the Black Water arc (in which I find some new line I somehow missed before that hits like a gut punch) or a beefleaf fanfic and end up sobbing because I love both Shi Qingxuan and He Xuan so much, mxtx why did you have to do them like that
These are adorable, but not the tragic beefleaf 😭
Tgcf chibis :)
Bear with me, it’s essay time because crying about beefleaf while rereading some parts of book 4 gave me a LOT of thoughts and emotions.
The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced that beefleaf were never going to get a happy ending, not because mxtx didn’t want to give them one, but because their dynamic literally makes it an impossibility. I don’t think it matters that He Xuan genuinely cared for SQX as Ming Yi because he is never going to be able to look at them without recalling what they took from him. Sure, he might not hate SQX, and he might actually wish them a happy life, but that life cannot be with him.
And this is taking into account a scenario in which He Xuan didn’t kill Shi Wudu, because even if he didn’t, I don’t think he himself could ever be truly happy with SQX. There is too much pain associated with them, and even though they were not the direct cause of that pain, I think it’s still fair for He Xuan not to want to be around that reminder. Is that fair to Qingxuan? Not necessarily, but neither was any of this fair to He Xuan.
I don’t think they could ever have a healthy relationship built upon a foundation filled with so much hurt, because they would only end up hurting each other more, whether intentionally or not. I think they both know this, and it’s why I personally believe that the ending mxtx gave them is the best we could have hoped for. In the end, I believe it’s clear that neither of them hates the other, but they do harbor a lot of complicated feelings on the matter that cannot be resolved with apology and forgiveness.
For Qingxuan’s part, I don’t think they blame He Xuan for their present situation. In fact, they are adamant in relaying to Xie Lian that He Xuan didn’t do anything to them after the events of the Black Water Arc. However, they also seem intent on moving forward with their mortal life. As for He Xuan, his dropping SQX off at the royal capital, as well as his willingness to give SQX his spiritual power and the fan (regardless of the dire circumstances) shows that there’s a part of him that still cares about them. He has no desire to interfere with Qingxuan’s chances at happiness in their new life, precisely because of that affection, but he also doesn’t want to be around to grieve over what could have been. Because every time He Xuan sees SQX, there will only be regret, both for his inability to see SQX without the attached pain and for the friend (or even lover) he could have had had their fates not been so maliciously intertwined.
Yes, I love beefleaf, but what I love more than the ship are the incredibly written individuals themselves. And I do firmly believe that, in canon at least, they would both be more at peace by letting go and moving on. Not necessarily happy, but at peace.
Now, in another universe, where these two met outside of these circumstances? Beefleaf most certainly sails.
Side note: In a weird way, writing this was actually kinda cathartic because it gave me peace with and acceptance of beefleaf’s canon ending, while still acknowledging that these two definitely had the potential to be lovers. That potential can be (and already has been) explored through everyone’s lovely fan creations.
This is breathtakingly beautiful, the backgrounds are perfection, everyone is right at home and they’re all happy 🥺😭
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 🙃

TGCF and SVSSS Crossover (Or aus)
Mobei Jun or Shen Yuan (Or both lol) being the sons of He Xuan and Shi Qingxuan, (Maybe a bit of spice of Shen Jiu being the son of Shi Wudu). Also HuaLian being the parents of Luo Binghe. Also also Liu Qingge & Liu Mingyan being the son and daughter of FengQing
He Xuan did another way of revenge, marrying the man that ruined your lifes little brother.
(Maybe with a bit of Liujiu, Bingyuan, and Moshang).
my fate is up to me and not the heavens

Progress Report: In Truth No Beauty, in Lies No Refuge
I just sent my Papyrus file to my beta. Since I'm just under 90.000 words and she has a life on the side, it'll take a hot minute. This part is, oddly, the hardest. I can't do much except wait, feeling both accomplished and anxious.
Well, I can do one thing: Get going with the next fanfic. Which is exactly what I'm going to do. (No, not a beefleaf one. Next one's Xiyao.)
Progress Report: In Truth No Beauty, in Lies No Refuge
The first draft of my sequel to Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead, is - as of now - complete. Now I have to proofread and edit - heavily, in a few spots.
I have heard that whole thing about gardeners and architects. I've always thought of myself as the latter: I usually know when I start writing where I'm going and how I'll get there. This time, I am really glad I didn't post while I wrote, because I wouldn't be anywhere near the finishing line if I couldn't go back and adapt to changes in my plans. (That is why one of my older fics, Tug-o-War, took me almost five years. I've since learned a lesson: Finish before posting.)
So I'll need a bit for this process, then I'm sending it to my beta. And once it's back, I can start to post.
The title will be In Truth No Beauty, in Lies No Refuge. My working title was 'High Water Over Hell', but I was increasingly unhappy with that (because anything that would have made that make sense never made it into the text). I'll let you know when it goes to my beta and when she's cleared it. :)
Okay, listen. I never read WiPs because I got invested in too many of them before they were discontinued. I have no idea what possessed me to open this one first BUT I AM SO GLAD I DID and you should, too.
This fic takes a somewhat different direction regarding what will happen with Shi Qingxuan after canon, and it's believable and brilliantly executed.
Go on. If you like Beefleaf and slow burn and HELL I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW THIS IS GOING TO END but I think it'll be fine because if it isn't I'll cry ... Anyway, if you like those things, then read it.
New cover, same amazing Beef-Leaf fanfic!

Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead
New Chapter:
Xie Lian has made his report. His plan for the rest of the night is to go home and sleep - and he'll get to do just that. Except there is this one little thing ...
(Note: I also posted the epilogue already, so we are, officially, finished!)
Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead
New Chapter:
The best laid plans don't always work out. And Shi Qingxuan's plan was never all that good to begin with.
Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead
New Chapter:
Shi Qingxuan wants to go back to his investigation, and since he can't stop him without sitting on him, He Xuan does his best to be helpful.
Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead
New Chapter:
Shi Qingxuan is exhausted. He wants to have time to think - but mostly, he wants to be alone with He Xuan.
(I'm a day early this week because tomorrow I won't be able to post at a reasonable time by the looks of it.)
Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead
New Chapter:
Shi Qingxuan is missing and He Xuan is uncooperative. Xie Lian isn't convinced he wants to let his friend's fate rest in the ghost's hands alone, so he and Hua Cheng look for him on their own.
Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead
New Chapter:
The investigation has been crudely planned, but it leads ... well, somewhere. How to get back from wherever that is is a different question entirely.
Avenge the Living, Heal the Dead
New Chapter:
Sure, Shi Qingxuan and He Xuan have a lot they absolutely have to talk about. But maybe a stroll through the Royal Capital is not the time and place for it.
