I've seen qws (the wife is first) aus for both svsss and 2ha, which works well, but for the past few days I've been wondering how this au would look like for tgcf, because the scenario is: xie lian gets gay married, BUT it's to cut off his access to the throne. how will he fix the mistakes he's gonna make???
i think xie lian has potential to be like jing shao.. jing shao is neither as idealistic as crown prince xie lian, nor quite as apathetic in his first life as calamity xie lian. it's interesting to think of scenarios to get xie lian to that middle ground :3c (but also! doting xl in his second life sounds fun)
hua cheng and jun qing do have pretty different personalities, though they have their loyalty and wit in common lol. it would be fun to explore his thoughts in both lives
i can see hua cheng hustling to make sure xie lian lives his best life, but on the other hand i can't for the life of me imagine xl having concubines, much less FAVORING them over hc adfhfsa (he's Gay ladies)

If you do happen to decide to do wip Wednesday, Andrew first with Neil and Andrew being domestic please 🙏
WIP Wednesday (7/19/23) - Closed | Andrew First AU
Aaron comes home and is treated to the familiar sight of the half-dead guy his brother had dragged home dead asleep on the couch.
Neil sleeping on the couch was not anything to write home about considering that 5 times out of 10 Aaron would find the other teen sleeping there.
At least 3 of those 5 would involve finding Neil like this.
His face smashed against Andrew’s shoulder, Andrew leaning his chin resting against Neil's head, their legs endlessly tangled, and Andrew stroking Neil's back.
Andrew looks up at his entry into the living room but only to acknowledge that he knows that Aaron is there before his gaze falls back to whatever book he’s trying to read with only one hand.
“Is there a reason Josten is only awake for a couple hours a day?” Aaron finally decides to ask.
He doesn’t mind that Neil is sleeping, Neil doesn’t give a shit about any noise around him and has proven that with the many times Nicky had blasted music in the house and for Neil not to stir.
“Keep your voice down.” Andrew hisses his free hand moving down from Neil’s hair to the ear that isn’t pressed against Andrew’s chest. His eyes briefly snapping to Aaron to glare before snapping back down to Neil’s sleeping face as if searching for any hint of Neil waking up.
The problem is that Andrew treats Neil sleeping as if Neil will wake up at the sound of a mouse farting three houses away.
“He didn’t wake up when Nicky was playing Mariah Carey at full blast for an hour before you got back from wherever you were Saturday and made Nicky turn it off. You and I talking at a normal volume is not going to be the thing that wakes up Josten.” He rolls his eyes. “So explain it to me, why is he always sleeping?” He points at the teen in question.
Andrew scowls at him for a full minute but kept his hand over Neil’s ear as he answered, “He has a sleep debt and he’s recovering from…” Andrew trails off, “…a lot.” He decides.
“Is he sick?” Aaron asks worried that Neil needed more help than Andrew’s, frankly, obsessive doting and caretaking. Aaron reaches out before he can think about it to touch Neil’s forehead.
Andrew’s hand caught his wrist before he could get close. “Don’t touch him. He’ll wake up if you touch him.” Andrew says voice sharp despite whispering. “He’s not sick, he needs time to recover from everything that was going on before I found him. You and Nicky saw him after almost a week of him resting.” he hisses.
