[Quotes & Propaganda below] 

Quote 8: TYK Regrets

“One only knew autumn when the cold rain came; parasol trees dying of old age; the suffering of the cold under a thin blanket; wasting your lifetimes away… all belated regrets in the end, regrets that we hadn’t met sooner” - Faraway Wanderers 

Submission: This is the quote that convinced me to read Faraway Wanderers because I read it on tumblr and then heard it in the audiodrama trailer and I thought it was so pretty that I knew I had to read this novel. It is written at the end of Chapter 29 where Wen Kexing discovers that Zhou Zishu only has a couple more years left to live and it’s quite heartwrenching 

Quote 9: TYK Affection

“As long as your affection for me is as mine for you, I will not let it be in vain” - Wen Kexing (he writes this on Zhou Zishu’s palm), Faraway Wanderers 

Submission: The classic WenZhou quote. Makes me want to cry every time I read it

Quote 10: Qi Ye Soulmates

“The first lifetime, a stone appeared, turning into the burial mound of a hero, feelings unable to be broken. The second lifetime, a boulder split, ferrying a predestined love across the Bridge, a pair of mandarin ducks flying off together. The third lifetime, a jadeite burned, vowing to abide by an invaluable oath, eternally following each other in life and death” - Qi Ye, Chapter 1

Submission: This is the opening paragraph of the novel. It goes unaddressed in the rest of the novel but it is heavily implied to be describing Jing Beiyuan and Wu Xi’s several centuries of tragic soulmate-ism

Quote 27: Look at Me?

“Won’t you turn back and look at me? If you turn back and look at me just one time, even if you were to ask me to climb up to the roof and jump off, I’ll do it.” - GuoMen 

Quote 28: Reflection

“I fantasize about seeing my reflection in your eyes one day, just one look, I’ll be willing to do anything that is asked of me, even pulverizing my body and shattering my bones no matter how many times…” - Lie Huo Jiao Chou 

Quote 29: No Betrayal to be Had

“Whatever he wants, I’ll give it to him. If he wants my life, I’ll stake my life for him… there’s no betrayal to be had.” - Liu Yao: The Revitalization of Fuyao Sect 

Quote 30: Droplet of Water

"If one's heart is small, all their sufferings even as large as a house, can only be crammed into that small corner. But if one's heart were as vast as heaven and earth, then even if their troubles were as large as a mountain, they would become nothing more than a droplet of water in the endless sea."  - Liao Ran, Sha Po Lang, Chapter 26

In my last bid to get Han Muchun into the @/top-teacher-tourney I decided to draw the sillies... Please vote for best teacher-dad who founded this family so well they stayed found family-ing through everything!

Round 2, Match 49: Han Muchun vs. Iroh

Submitted kids:

Han Muchun: Yan Zhengming, Li Yun, Cheng Qian, Han Yuan, Han Tan

Iroh: Gaang

Propaganda under the cut!

Han Muchun:

1. “While he was alive? -ish he got five Yan Zhengming our pretty peacock, Li yun the resident forg boy, Cheng Qian childhood ambition to be a serial killer, Han Yuan representing the never ending cycle of how the poor become criminals and a demon bird Shui Keng.

He is a shizun fucker by which I mean he does try to posthumously marry his teacher by attending to his teacher who is chained up for However long their consciousness last.

He is a Great father instilled so many family values in five children by just being an eccentric weasel spirit.”

2. “Han Muchun is a teacher of cultivation with weird, scrungly dad energy. His disciples use the more informal address “shifu” for him which literally translates to “martial father”. He agrees to teach Yan Zhengming after saving his life and YZM imprinting on him like a duckling. It’s unknown how he met Li Yun but he collected him second. He collects Cheng Qian because the boy’s indifferent biofamily wanted to sell him to Han Muchun, and Han Muchun decided to take him in. They meet a starving orphan on the way home, and Han Muchun gives him a name (Han Yuan) and takes him in and teaches him too. Those four find an egg of a half bird creature half human girl, take it home, and Han Muchun takes her in too. She’s given the name Han Tan, and there’s literally scenes of him changing her diaper. He is their dad.”

3. “Best teacher-dad! The five kids are actually his disciples, but to most of them he's more of a parent than any of their birth parents. Cheng Qian's parents literally sold him, Han Yuan was a homeless beggar, Li Yun's parents aren't even mentioned, and Han Tan hatched from an egg the older four brought home (she's half bird yao/supernatural creature). The only one who has family that cares about him is Yan Zhengming and even he actually came under Han Muchun's tutelage because he ran away from home. And Han Muchun accepted this bunch of chaotic kids from different backgrounds, and won their trust, and made them into the found family that wasn’t broken even by a 100 years of separation and everything else that happened in canon (that'd be very spoiler-y to explain)”

(For context Little mushroom is a book series with two books that left me devastated for an entire month and The book I'm currently reading has some devastating part in it as well.)

Han Yuan was never a beauty, so I drew him with rougher features, but I like it even more, cuz it's some kind of change in my work flow.
