Some moments from the new āMoving Forward Through the Flowery Nightā Extra that made me, a Heihua enthusiast, wonder if I was hallucinating as much as DMBJ characters do because WHAT THE FUCK NPSS
With some book and TV quotes that I thought were very appropriate for what my eyes were and still are currently processing.
This sounds very red string of fate. Yāknow the Chinese concept about soulmates who are destined to meet where the thread may knot or tangle but it will never break. Did NPSS really just drop 5k about how Heihua are soulmates actually. Is that what Iām reading.
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. So Xie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi are a rare example of meeting the right person at exactly the right time???
āShe used to say she was the kite and I was the line... without me she'd become untethered and she would float away... And then without her, I would just, you know, crash, just drop right down to the ground.ā - Hugh Craine about his wife Olivia Craine in The Haunting of Hill House TV Series.
THIS IS A CANON ROMANCE AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED. The whole trying to push Xie Yuchen away to keep him safe⦠hhhhhhhh
LOVE CHANGES YOU FOR THE BETTER???
āWhatās a soulmate?ā
āIt's uh... Well, it's like a best friend, but more. It's the one person in the world that knows you better than anyone else... It's someone who makes you a better person. Actually, they don't make you a better person, you do that yourself - because they inspire you. It's someone who you can carry with you forever. It's the one person who knew you and accepted you and believed in you before anyone else did... And no matter what happens, you will always love them. Nothing can ever change that." - Dawsonās Creek
Hey did NPSS just say that Xie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi matter more to each other than their own lives? I mean Mystery of the Abyss was basically that but Iām still staring at that bit about the other person mattering more than oneself and bluescreening.
THIS IS MY CHOICE ASS LINE???
"Mine is the choice of LĆŗthien, and as she so have I chosen, both the sweet and the bitter." - Arwen about choosing her lover Aragorn over an immortal life, The Lord of the Rings.
āRemember. This is my choice, not yours. You dont have to bear any blame or guilt.ā - Ying Long to Bingyi in Fangs of Fortune
Also, I better get that story next because hey what do you mean Xie Yuchen went with Hei Xiazi on a suicidal revenge mission that Hei Xiazi desperately tried to keep him out of but Xie Yuchen was like, āno Iām coming with you and if I die it doesnāt matter because Iām with youā. Whereās that story? Like please for the love of all things say that either a book or a new movie is coming out with that story in it.
Oh and now theyāre stars. Amazing. Iām having a fever dream. NPSS basically spelling out that Heihua are doomed without one another and need the other to survive or theyāll collapse. And when you relate that to the bit earlier about Hei Xiazi trying to push Xie Yuchen away to keep him safe⦠and how Hei Xiazi doesnāt think fate can be defied but Xie Yuchen does and when you put that into the context of Mystery of the Abyss??
"Their spirit names are Tui and La. Push and Pull. And that has been the nature of their relationship for all time⦠Tui and La, your moon and ocean, have always circled each other in an eternal dance. They balance each other. Push and Pull. Life and Death. Good and Evil. Yin and Yang." - ATLA
This binary star imagery is giving the Yin and Yang comparison of Tui and La and how they perfectly balance one another. And especially in Ultimate Note with how Heihuaās relationship seems to show how they get so drawn into each other until Hei Xiazi actually consciously tries to push Xie Yuchen away but then keeps getting pulled right back in.
Yes Iām very normal about all of this and Iām processing it amazingly what are you talking about.
NPSS WHAT THE FUCK. HE JUST WOKE UP AND SAID āHEIHUA RIGHTSā.
And donāt even get me started about the porcelain shard reveal and what that says about their relationship. The fact that Hei Xiazi unknowingly gave Xie Yuchen the piece he needed to succeed in the eyes of the Xie Family and become their head and he feels guilt over that moment because of what it put Xie Yuchen through but it probably saved his life???
My personal headcanon is now that neither Xie Yuchen nor Hei Xiazi actually realised that about each other when they met again until maybe Xie Yuchen opened up about the porcelain shard as a story from when he was younger and Hei Xiazi realised the significance of that one random moment.
And we get the reveal that although Hei Xiazi did eventually lose his eyesight heās still alive with Xie Yuchen when the deer comes. And that may be an ambiguous ending for the two of them but given the whole theme of the story is that they are able to save one another over and over again - which has been the nature of their relationship for all time - I like to think that means they made it out alive and continue to be together.
But Iām still here sitting in shock. Im gonna be here in shock for a while longer.
Oh and donāt worry Iāll get to the Louvre Museum Date one as well. Because again - WHAT.
Anyway hereās the link for this one so you can all experience the absolute state of shock I went through first hand : https://merebear474765851.wordpress.com/2026/07/28/moving-forward-through-the-flowery-night/comment-page-1/?unapproved=19950&moderation-hash=5d2b73cac31f6dbdfd2f4621fb56f274#respond
