[bawkrya]

🥛hiii could you perhaps expand on Dajing *holds my chin in my claws cutely* maybe any fun little mannerisms or speech patterns or etc that he has? (he's gorgeous btw love when a pretty man goes Thru Some Shit and it rly seems like he is just living that constantly<3)

YES!!!! YES DAJING!!!!!!!! MY SPECIAL GIRL!!!!!

so. Dajing wasnt like a sect heir but he Was predy high up in his sect before it got quite literally sniped. His parents were a LOT older, so they were basically becoming elder scholars of the sect before he was even 10. But bc of this dajing has. Really formal ways of speaking. The type to use words you've never heard before bc he doesn't realize there's a simpler way to phrase something. He was kept around alllll the scholars almost 24/7 bc thats jst what his momma ws doing! And yeah he had like a milkmaid and the like bt also he threw a fit anytime his mom wasnt within his sight for actual years. He still got antsy even as a teenager when he cldnt find her.

Anyways

Despite how formal he speaks he takes every opportunity to tease people. Ppl like instinctually take everything he says very seriously and he takes advantage of jt when he Really shouldn't, but its also always for fun and never for any malicious reasons. He did this with Fangyan/the princess and its basically how he charmed her bc she thought it was funny this Big Number 1 Cultivator was a little silly guy.

Its how he pisses off xinkang 90% of the time though

As for mannerisms he has like little habits that he gains specifically after he enters a relationship with fangyan (and eventually xinkang) . . . . . Hes a whole head taller than both of them. So he started resting his chin/cheek on top of Fangyans head Mostly to mess with her but then it actually turned out to be comfortable so he just kept doing it. Then it went on to xinkang. Who tried to knock him out the first time he did it but he accepts his fate at some point. He does this to ruyang too heehee

He also just clings to ppl. Which like *motions to the bit about his mom* is probably obvious but dajing likes holding onto someone in Some way. Fangyan he would hold her waist/hug her from behind or just hold onto her sleeve when in public, xinkang he would hold onto his little ribbons or have an arm over his shoulders, ruyang he would hold her by the scruff of her neck. LMFAO. But hes really affectionate so he had to be holding sm1 in some way. This fact made his seclusion all the more miserable though.

i love dajing sooo much and it is 100% bc i gave him the hxm faceclaim but i looove him my special viciously miserable man . . . . . Rlly looking forward to writing how ruyang responds to receiving a new set of parents given she didnt learn about fangyan/xinkang until jinyu started fucking with dajing (so quite literally in the current timeline, has only known about them for a few months). Shes gonna have so many parents

Also look at this img of hxm being carried. xinkang/dajing core
