#XiYaoMonth2020 #emhdd

it does have a happy golden ending, time and grace willing, and they all heal

but it's a rough road
but that's why we love it
that's why we need it
if you cut us we bleed

i'm looking forward to playlist day

in old sheets, discarded leg wrappings and ribbons, a carefully gathered sachet of shed strands of hair. dropped handkerchiefs. how romantic. he'd had so much, at the end. things he'd collected, begged, even stolen.

later he'd regretted none of it, made himself a suit

this ends in a Day 6 #XiYaoMonth2020 #emhdd grounding beat pulsing underneath the previous days' festivals of light. it still ends there, despite all of it. we that dwell in the threat are no fools we just have deep sad and ancient eyes
he finds little silk pillows in exactly the right shape. has had a herb-stuffed and embroidered disc sewn onto the base. leaves notes under it in red and gold ink. makes sure the mouth stays flexible. #emhdd

yes, there's a head in the closet. yes, he sleeps with it sometimes. a lot. he spends time conditioning its skin with hand blended fragrant oils, combs and braids its hair over and over again, has xue yang bring him silver pins from his kills. the ones with little flowers. #emhdd

a-yao streaming this out behind him as he runs in #emhdd

When I am laid,
am laid in earth,
may my wrongs create
No trouble,
no trouble in,
in thy breast

Remember me,
remember me,
but ah
Forget my fate

yeah that look at the end is for huaisang (and all the others who slowly come forward to take his arm and lead him away) #emhdd

jgy riddled with scars, with sores.
a special waterproof makeup recipe from meng shi.
the brothel, jgs, nies, the wens and the war, and jgs again. they all left scars.
lxc the only one who did not.
lxc the only one who ever saw CLOSE to all of them at the same time.

i ship him w jiang cheng bc uncles arguing over tuition while drinking, competing w gifts and experiences for attention, being insecure ans defensive; leveraging of power (and some loneliness); it easily happens.

i ship him w any junior who DARES (#emhdd perhaps), near the end.

nie huaisang always had a deeper and more sophisticated taste for noblemen’s pursuits than a-yao ever did. ever could, even in his tower.

how could such an arriviste ever truly understand the arts, aptitudes and history of such men as the nie?

spits into his hand, rudely, and pulls himself to sleep with it every night.

it will be so much better, even, than the temple.
it will light up the very room.
they might all of them go blind with it.
huaisang only with pleasure.

them (#emhdd) to achieve his aims of destroying them both. i do see him as having worked like his mother did, and as having had no real choice at jinlintai during any of his visits there. he endured; he triumphed.

i ship him w xue yang bc they can relax together with it ALL out,
November 23, 2024 at 9:26 PM
whatever percentage of the silver mines goes to the nie, whatever hills they give over will be of no import.

he’ll give anything.

nhs dreams of that moment, the unveiling of the cage, after the sale.

except to cut, stitch, wash, heal, and keep clean. and groom.

lan xichen knows nothing.
when he hears that he survived, has been healed and cared for, that it was only kept secret so as to not hurt his heart in case of failure, no matter how furious this makes him,

there are so many things to atone for,
and his body is so small.

it takes a long time to be done.

the important things are still there, still work,
and his face is still pretty.
and his hair so well brushed.
no one has touched him, throughout,
November 23, 2024 at 9:13 PM
#emhdd

for each thing he took from the world, each life, each future

nhs takes a piece.

(lxc convinces him he has to--should--give up that piece.)

and eventually he does.
let him take.
each one.

some of them aren’t big at all.
November 23, 2024 at 9:06 PM
he’s there at all. erasing himself completely. this nie room is hung in silks from jin storehouses, only the known around a-yao, only his own hell.

jin perfumes, lan incense. never a breath of fresh air.

and the gist of it is

#emhdd

he has to accede to each piece taken.
November 23, 2024 at 8:57 PM
the inner robes only for the ones that touch his skin, all those golds, whites, and blues

#emhdd

--to later SELL him to lxc--

and summoning an image of lxc doing it, a mask, a hallucination
over and over again so he thinks they’re working together

or never letting him know
November 23, 2024 at 8:50 PM
of ‘but lxc keeps him’ did to my nerves including the other one i’m working on

#emhdd

this is happening.

nie huaisang slowly, slowly taking pieces of him,
keeping him in an enormous golden birdcage
in a nest of special cushions made from his old wardrobe

i made a #xiyao #sangyao #emhdd that will be moving to ao3 once it gets bigger and can feed itself

no hatred like the hatred of a wounded sister
