Xie Lian's Big Naturals
villainous friend@xieliansbignaturals oh noooo that’s it exactly
I really enjoy finding posts, assigning them to characters, and finding a perfect image to put them on, like this. It's so much fun.
@xieliansbignaturals it’s a really fun kind of fanwork to see!
@villainousfriend *happy gasp* Fanwork?? 🥺
That makes me think - I wonder if this is the sort of thing that should go on AO3. Definitely not one at a time, though. But I kind of want to archive them somewhere.
I guess it's kind of like web-weaving.
@xieliansbignaturals it’s intertextuality!! And definitely fanwork!! ❤️
I guess it could go up on AO3? You’d have to host the images somewhere else, which is always a bit annoying with AO3, but I think it’s worth thinking about archiving. This kind of thing is so ephemeral, they get hard to find not just if a site goes down but also if it changes its url scheme or search engine policy or whatever.
@villainousfriend Thank you so much. 
It means a lot to hear that. There is genuine creative work that goes into these, but I guess I hadn't really thought about it. It's "just a meme," and I didn't write the text posts.
Yeah, ugh. And I don't tag these things consistently on either Tumblr or here, so there's no easy way to find all of them even while the sites *are* up.
It looks like Squidge Images is back up. I could use that!
@xieliansbignaturals oh nice! I don’t know Squidge Images specifically, but I know Squidgeworld has been around a long time in fandom. 😄
@villainousfriend I've heard it's a good place to host fandom-related images!

lipsyncingblackwater@xieliansbignaturals now I want a frankenstein au
@lipsyncingblackwater Bai Wuxiang kills Xie Lian just so he can reconstruct him. Later, Xie Lian is worried that Hua Cheng will think he's gross, but Hua Cheng is just sad that Bai Wuxiang designed the way he's put together. Erotic re-re-construction follows (Xie Lian wants his original limbs back, and Hua Cheng is happy to help).
@xieliansbignaturals maybe they have to fight bwx to get those limbs back cause bwx has this weird fixation on them and keeps them somewhere.
Also they could get together during the re assembling process! It could be so heartfelt an emotional omg.
Hua Cheng needs to be a scientist!
@lipsyncingblackwater oh my goshhhh 🥺
Bai Wuxiang graduated from the College of Torture and Evilness. Hua Cheng is self-taught (and significantly better at his work).
@xieliansbignaturals Bai Wuxiang needs to be a doctor too. Scariest most abusive doctor to ever doctor.
Hua Cheng just snuck into lectures to get closer to dianxia. Maybe Xie Lian was a star student or smth like that
