Thank you so much! 😭

<3 thank you so much!

Ah thank you for saying so! I will absolutely be taking your recommendation as soon as I can stop drawing them long enough to actually read some fic.

Yesssss thank you for understanding exactly what I’m going for

Right???? He could have at least tried!

All of these pictures are just fast sketches of Xue Yang’s face as depicted by wang haoxuan

I just think he’s neat.

a black and white digital painting of song lan and xiao xingchen from the untamed (as depicted by li Bowen and song jiyang). song lan has the black veins + scleras indicating that he's a fierce corpse, and is holding his sword. Xiao xingchen is holding him close by the back of his head and gripping his sword arm in the other hand. the people and sword are rendered in a realistic style, but their hanfu, hair, and the dark leaf shapes framing them are more abstract. Xiao xingchen's bandaged eyes are represented by a light colored transparent shape under which you can see his eyes staring lovingly at his bf

This is basically posting the same thing twice, but I did make a version of this with a slightly reworked composition for #songxiaoseptember2025! <3 i like to imagine what a slightly different xxc mental breakdown could have looked like.

xiao xingchen looking lovingly at song lan as he says his name

song lan looking judgingly at xue yang

xue yang smiling down at fuxue's blade

the way xingchen says song lan's name and the way song lan looks at xue yang and the way xue yang looks at fuxue i am so feral about them i am in physical pain

SXX art I made before drowning in hundreds of thousands of words of fix-it fics vs SXX art I made after drowning in hundreds of thousands of words of fix-it fics

These are both sooo gorgeous! It’s continually impressive how you manage to capture a likeness with just a few lines in a face.

Also it’s funny to see this given that I’ve ALSO been making angsty b&w sxx art, but have not delved into the fixit fic yet. It feels like some kind of prophecy, haha

Thank you, that’s so kind!

Thank youuuu I tried. I’m on a mission to depict him getting whatever he wants because he’s my beautiful princess and it’s what he deserves.

Aaaaa thank you so much! The desperate/futile grasping at each other is so important to me 😌

my awful boy 💚

He’s so beautiful. Perfect murderboy sweetie pie <333

a black and white digital painting of song lan, xiao xingchen, and xue yang from the untamed. song lan has black veins + scleras indicating that he's an undead puppet, and is holding his sword. Xiao xingchen is holding him close by the back of his head and holding his sword arm in the other hand. Xue yang curls his body around Xingchen’s, resting his head on the other man’s back and grasping his hips. the people and sword are rendered in a realistic style, but their hanfu, hair, and the dark leaf shapes framing them are more abstract. Xiao xingchen's bandaged eyes are represented by a light colored transparent shape, through which he is gazing lovingly at song lan, of course.

Back on my bullshit…

#yicity #songxuexiao #theuntamed

Special birthday boy shouldn't have to walk and deserves to be carried around all day

#songxue

He just thinks SL is so hot and cool and good at cultivation… and he’s right.

My hand slipped… #songxiao #songxiaoseptember2025

Aaaaaa thank you! They make me insane. <3

This is the same image as the one it’s a reply to, but without clouds obscuring the characters’ faces; just Xiao Xingchen cradling Song Lan amidst tall grass.

Bonus version without magic eye surgery, for any sick freaks who want to see them just being kinda happy.

digital painting of Xiao xingchen and Song Lan from the untamed. They kneel in tall grass under an overcast sky, Xiao Xingchen cradling Song Lan as lucky clouds swirl from his open eyes to Song Lan's closed ones.

“Where do you think his eyes went”?

I finished watching #theuntamed and predictably i’m still obsessed with #yicity. I gather that this is just a thing that happens to people. Hahahah. Anyway! Have some #songxiao in these trying times. <3
