Hua Cheng is theoretically such a stupid character, because ah yes. The supreme demon lord of butterflies and flowers, feared throughout the realms. He’ll defeat you using the power of love and his sentient scimitar that’s honestly just a sweet little baby who wants cuddles from its owner’s husband. You mention butterflies, and all of Heaven starts quaking in their boots. He held an umbrella for a flower one time, and that’s like- his title now. He also learned like- every language ever because he was bored, and yet his handwriting in his own native language is so bad, you literally can’t tell what he’s writing ever.

I just absolutely ADORE the way anything and everything associated with hua cheng, like eming or his wraith butterflies, go feral the instant xie lian shows them affection. Its like they are showing the internal chaos that hua cheng hides from his gege. The yearning and love is so ingrained into everything hua cheng that it spills onto anything that is his and so they react the same way as hua cheng wants to. And then he has to reprimand them off of xie lian too to save face and omg i cant i just cant sudhehshsbjajxbsbzbsb
