@mulianzine.bsky.social

Our final contributor spotlight is for the wonderful Marc Morrigan 🌸

#DewdropsAtDawn #MuLian #TGCF #TianGuanCiFu #HeavenOfficialsBlessing #天官赐福 #慕怜

A graphic with some light pink and golden accents and some cherry blossoms. On the left side there’s an icon: Hua Cheng as illustrated by ZeldaCW, peeking from behind a curtain, with a pride flag behind him.
Under that icon, some text reads: “Marc Morrigan. Artist. @marcmorrigan (Tumblr). ‘Certified multishipper and trans agenda advocate here to draw my faves in t4t polycules and pretty outfits. Historical fashion is a huge special interest of mine, so how could I not love Mulian? Special shoutout to Fennel, who wrote the incredibly sweet fic that I had the honor of illustrating!’”.
On the right side, there is a sneak peek of some art depicting a modern AU Mu Qing standing behind Xie Lian, placing a crown on top of Xie Lian’s head. Sticking to the mirror where they’re both reflected in, there are some photos .
On the bottom left, it says “Dewdrops at dawn”, adorned with more cherry blossoms.

虚心的人有福了！因为天国是他们的。
哀恸的人有福了！因为他们必得安慰。
温柔的人有福了！因为他们必承受地土。
饥渴慕义的人有福了！因为他们必得饱足。
怜恤人的人有福了！因为他们必蒙怜恤。
清心的人有福了！因为他们必得见　神。
使人和睦的人有福了！因为他们必称为神的儿子。
为义受逼迫的人有福了！因为天国是他们的。
人若因我辱骂你们，逼迫你们，捏造各样坏话毁谤你们，你们就有福了！应当欢喜快乐，因为你们在天上的赏赐是大的。在你们以前的先知，人也是这样逼迫他们。

Dewdrops At Dawn - A Mulian Zine

@mulianzine.bsky.social

Contributor spotlight of the day is for Vin, one of our writers for the winter section @mushroomvinn.bsky.social 🌸

#DewdropsAtDawn #MuLian #TGCF #TianGuanCiFu #HeavenOfficialsBlessing #天官赐福 #慕怜

A graphic with some light pink and golden accents and some cherry blossoms. On the left side there’s an icon: a photo of a red panda.
Under that icon, some text reads: “Vin. Writer. @mushroomvinn (bsky). ‘I’m really excited to be a part of this zine!’”.
On the right side, there is a sneak peek of some writing:
“He felt a jolt as he recalled something he definitely should have remembered from the beginning. Wasn’t Xuan Zhen the heavenly title of his former servant and friend, Mu Qing?
Xie Lian’s vision went slightly hazy as he gazed at the establishment plaque in disbelief. He stumbled backwards, nearly slipping on the snow
Mu Qing”.
On the bottom left, it says “Dewdrops at dawn”, adorned with more cherry blossoms.

Dewdrops At Dawn - A Mulian Zine

@mulianzine.bsky.social

Our next spotlight is for one of our writers for the winter section, the one and only @syllareads.bsky.social 🌸

#DewdropsAtDawn #MuLian #TGCF #TianGuanCiFu #HeavenOfficialsBlessing #天官赐福 #慕怜

A graphic with some light pink and golden accents and some cherry blossoms. On the left side there’s an icon: a person in cartoon style drinking a cup of tea.
Under that icon, some text reads: “Sylla. Writer. @syllareads (bsky) @syllapoecats (Tiktok/YT). ‘Hi, I’m Sylla! I love reading and writing unhinged and/or sad queer things and making readers suffer <3 If any of that sounds interesting to you, stick around and let yourself get hurt. XOXO’”.
On the right side, there is a sneak peek of some writing:
“Love, the cat yawns, butting her little head against his thumb and Mu Qing thinks about the order he had received, and tries not to shudder. Xie Lian’s eyes stare at him, white as his hair, the barest tinge of pink around the edges, and Mu Qing does not tell him because he does not know how. Instead, they both sit and keep quiet, the cat’s mindless purring their only shared conversation.
When Xie Lian leaves, Mu Qing deposits his little beast onto the pillow next to his head and tries to ignore the plaintive cry (cold!) echoing inside his mind.
He had other magic to dedicate himself to. It is, after all, only proper for a bastard to be commanded by his king”.

On the right side, there is a sneak peek of some art with a melancholic atmosphere depicting Mu Qing and Xie Lian, in cool hues, sitting on the ground. Xie Lian has his head on Mu Qing’s shoulder.

Dewdrops At Dawn - A Mulian Zine

@mulianzine.bsky.social

Happy Happa Monday! Here is another sneak peek of what’s in the winter section of the zine. We’d like to thank @happasecs.bsky.social for being a part of it. 🌸

#DewdropsAtDawn #MuLian #TGCF #TianGuanCiFu #HeavenOfficialsBlessing #天官赐福 #慕怜

A graphic with some light pink and golden accents and some cherry blossoms. On the left side there’s an icon: A closeup of a chibi.
Under that icon, some text reads: “Happa. Writer. @happasecs (twitter + bsky). ‘Obnoxiously obsessed with tsunderes. I believe Mulian are both part kitten, part menace’”.
On the right side, there is a sneak peek of some writing:
“Mu Qing’s frown deepened, like a bottomless pit overlooking with grief. The aire was crisp and clear, yet the felt nothing but the stench of death. Today was his funeral.
The surroundings of the Imperial City were nothing like the day he first found himself in front of the entrance, or even like they were yesterday. In one night, everything had changed. He could no longer recognize his home.
Home?
To Mu Qing, home was a person. And when that person was no more, even heaven would become unbearable.”

@mulianzine.bsky.social

Happy weekend! We’re ecstatic to show you Fennel’s writing for the zine. Such a cool winter addition. Pun intended. 🌸

#DewdropsAtDawn #MuLian #TGCF #TianGuanCiFu #HeavenOfficialsBlessing #天官赐福 #慕怜

A graphic with some light pink and golden accents and some cherry blossoms. On the left side there’s an icon: Sha Hualing drawn by Velinxi, against a lesbian flag.
Under that icon, some text reads: “Fennel. Writer. @mingguangsword (twitter). ‘I run on caffeine and rarepairs’”.
On the right side, there is a sneak peek of some writing:
“Together, they stepped past the doors of the theater, into the cold winter night. On their walk to the subway station, Xie Lian watched Mu Qing’s face, his breath steaming in the air, cheeks flushed from the cold. Xie Lian felt his heart rise in his chest slightly, the same way it did at the end of a performance, when the whole audience got on their feet, applauding.
But this was better than any standing ovation. Because Mu Qing wasn’t here for the Sugar Plum Fairy, or for pointed feet and high legs and powerful jumps. As the two of them ducked into the shelter of the empty subway station, Mu Qing led Xie Lian through. The broken turnstile again, saying, ‘we really need to get you a pass that works.’”

Starting the winter section sneak peeks with the lovely art, full of yearning, that Alma created for our Mulian zine 🌸

#DewdropsAtDawn #MuLian #TGCF #TianGuanCiFu #HeavenOfficialsBlessing #天官赐福 #慕怜

A graphic with some light pink and golden accents and some cherry blossoms. On the left side there’s an icon: a closeup of a character playing the flute, as light illuminates them from above.
Under that icon, some text reads: “Alma. Artist. @almyaa_ (twitter). ‘If you could only use one word to define Xie Lian and Mu Qing’s relationship, it’d probably be ‘complicated’, They’ve hurted [sic] each other so much, but they’ve loved each other so much, too. They’re like winter and spring: meant to be, also meant to depart. I worked hard on this piece, and hope you will like it! <3’”.
On the right side, there is a sneak peek of some art in soft warm hues depicting Mu Qing and Xie Lian in opposite sides, seen from the side, with their hands reaching out to each other, standing against the sky.

Our last contributor for the autumn section is @namelessflower.bsky.social, who has written a truly wonderful story. 🌸

#DewdropsAtDawn #MuLian #TGCF #TianGuanCiFu #HeavenOfficialsBlessing #天官赐福 #慕怜

A graphic with some light pink and golden accents and some cherry blossoms. On the left side there’s an icon of a chibi version of Hua Cheng.
Under that icon, some text reads: “NamelessFlower. Writer. @flowercityism (twitter) @hualianisms (Tumblr) @namelessflower (bsky + AO3). ‘Love of words, stories, yuri/yaoi yearning, angst, catharsis & healing’”.
On the right side, there is a sneak peek of some writing: “The divine statue alone stood as if untouched by the passage of time, its splendor unsullied, unmarred by neither dust nor erosion. The artisan had captured Mu Qing’s likeness perfectly: his graceful beauty the deftness of his hands, the elegant set of his shoulders. Every bit the glorious, magnificent deity.
Xie Lian didn’t know how long he stood there, gazing at the statue, at that beautiful face: at once close enough to touch, and the farthest thing in the world”.
