wait i suddenly imagined a small pool of ghosts who, knowing what hualian is like, 100% thought this whole thing was just another kink thing 😭😂😂 “guess we’ll play along, if it’s what Grand Uncle and Chengzhu want!”

until they’re both breathless and and XL is crying and apologizing for taking so long, and HC is laughing over XL’s failed attempts to find an appropriate beloved.
“Gege, how could it have ever been anyone but you?”
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
- and places the most gentle kiss on the ghost’s cold lips. Warmth blooms from the point of contact, buzzing through XL, who feels like he’s ascending for the 4th time, as memories flood back to him. Below him, HC’s single dark eye opens, and he pulls XL into another kiss, and another and another
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
When he returns to paradise manor, breath uneven, hands shaking, he heads straight to HC’s bedside. He’s the same as always, still and beautiful, light by the soft glow of the butterflies. XL brushes the dark hair back from the ghost’s face, heart hammering in his chest as he leans down -
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
- as a potential candidate for HC’s beloved, and ignores the wave of irrational jealousy he feels at the thought. All moody feelings are wiped away when he enters the temple and sees the statue above the altar. The elegant, lifelike carving of his very own face.
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
He won’t admit it, but through all his research he’s grown rather fond of the man, despite not actually knowing him. Eventually he hears word of a grand temple in the city, rumored to have been frequently visited by HC before the curse. XL had never thought to consider anyone from heaven-
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
a supreme ghost king of this caliber (and beauty) warrant! XL just can’t bring himself to even suggest anyone tries the kiss. The thought of it makes something in his stomach squirm. He spends more time than he should making sure HC is comfortable and taken care of.
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
But he puts that aside, because he has a job to do! The rumor is that only a kiss from HC’s beloved will wake him, and so XL dives into researching the ghost king, interviewing citizens, and trying to track down this “beloved”. The problem is, simply no one seems to meet the high standards-
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
When XL first lays eyes on the sleeping ghost, laid out on crimson sheets, silver butterflies resting around him as if they’re sleeping too, XL’s breath is stolen by how beautiful the man is, and how this desperate longing XL has been ignoring seems to grow more painful at the sight.
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
-seem to know him? asking him where he’s been, calling him “grand uncle”, crying about their missing Chengzu. XL learns of the curse, and promises the ghosts he’ll try his best to look into the matter.
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
Eventually there’s enough commotion from ghost city that heaven decides to investigate, suspicious that they haven’t heard of any recent wickedness from crimson rain, and they send XL to check it out. XL tries to remain undercover, but once discovered is alarmed at how all these ghosts and demons-
November 28, 2025 at 5:14 PM
and Xie Lian (maybe everyone outside of ghost city) loses their recent memory, so he doesn’t know HC or remember being in love with him. He’s just going about his business as a recently re-ascended god, trying to ignore the aching sadness in his heart.
