Feiyun Xingqiu - Blog Posts
Shout out to Xingqiu’s brooch, and it experimenting a little with whether or not it wants to have that little “gold-curl” on the top:
The hearts are to show which of the images have the “gold-curl”^^
Personally, I think her brooch looks better with the “gold-curl”
// Lantern Rite day 1 — (about Chongqiu & the Feiyun family)
The footage I used for the screenshots are from here :)
First off; just Chongyun’s face and how he looks at Xingqiu the entire time she’s explaining the circumstances with her great-grandfather…….
And him being cautious about whether or not to relay what’s going on..
He’s so concerned and worried for how she’s feeling….. ☹️☹️☹️☹️
I love these type of moments a lot because it reminds you that they REALLY do care about each other a lot, they just love each other so much 🥲🥲 (I say this because sometimes it feels like some people forget that.. /lh)
It just makes me really happy to see, their love means a lot to me <33
And Chongyun saying he’s going with Xingqiu to check up on the room again, I just know it’s actually because he wants to be by Xingqiu’s side and to be there for her, he’s very clearly worryed about her and how she’s doing..
Even if she isn’t close with her great-grandfather, he wants to be there for her…
And I’m just thinking about the idea of them after they say goodbye to the Traveller & Paimon, and as they’re walking to her house; Chongyun sees Xingqiu looking down and appearing all gloomy, he asks again if she really is okay, and she says “Yes.” again, but Chongyun still doesn’t think so…
And he asks if she wants to hold his hand, and she gives a soft but pained smile and excepts it, and when she takes his hand she never lets go after that..
Also I want to talk about how I interpret Xingqiu’s relationship with her great-grandfather with my hcs for her family:
Xingqiu emphasising she’s “never been close with her great-grandfather” and how “he wasn’t speaking much by the time she was born”, implying the non-closeness derives from her just not interacting with him at all pretty much. And I find that very interesting when it comes to interpreting it and compared to her other relationships in the family…
I like to think this non-closeness for her great-grandfather doesn’t come from the same place as like her mother, brother or father (negative), and it is more neutral because compared to the other three; he never gave her a hard time growing up or in present day, because she never really got to interact with him in a proper way.
And because of that neutralness towards him rather than negative feelings, she is feeling a sense of fear for him - even if she isn’t close to him at all, and is trying to assure everyone that she’s okay, even though it’s clear that it is affecting her in someway. Because since it’s not deep rooted in negativity, it’s actually getting to her.
Also I kind of like to think that in the little times she did interact with him, he just lets her do what she wants because he’s old asf and could care less on what she does (even if her family says otherwise) - so she has respect for him on that front.
And this is pretty much everything I have to say rn, of course this is all only going by day 1, but I’m interested to see how this is going to progress :3
Edit: we didn’t get much more..
If there’s one thing I desperately want to make when it comes to the Feiyun Family, it’s a family portrait of them all - the painting of the family that they have in their house (because they’re rich asf so of course they would), but I haven’t been able to because I haven’t finalise their designs, and especially outfits for Xingqiu’s father and brother (I hate designing clothes for men)
Because the main idea I have for a piece like that, is Xingqiu’s face “not being herself” - Xingqiu has such a warm and happy smile when she’s with her friends, bc she’s able to be herself, but she can’t at home or with her family..
It’s so cold and uninviting, her beautiful smile is gone.. she’s not happy.
She’s ‘not being herself’…
Need to redesign Xingqiu’s Mother, Father and Brother…
Xingqiu’s had a lot of changes when is comes to her design — + specific parts about her person — so I need to apply those characteristics to the others, and specifically for her mother and brother, I NEED TO COOK!!

Xingqiu’s eyes are brown but the bottom part of her eyes shine gold in the light
Definitely made my process when drawing Xingqiu’s hair 10x longer because of one decision, but it’s all worth it because she looks absolutely beautiful <33
My Xingqiu design is peak, I fear……

Have a Christmas themed Xingqiu GIF (made by yours truly) :3c
𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬!!!
It’s like late asf for me rn, and I just had the most insane ramblings to myself while listening to all of Xingqiu’s (menu) dialogue.
Like absolutely losing my shit over specific pieces of dialogue, with the small bit of connotations and implications, and what they could mean about her and her family, AND her family trouble’s (I love Xingqiu having awful family problems, she doesn’t like any of them <33) - and many other little quirks about her personality (she’s a fucking nerd)
I wish I could write down all of my ideas and hc’s that I have when it comes to the Feiyun family, and Xingqiu’s relationship with all of them… BECAUSE OH DO I HAVE SO MANY IDEAS.
↓ ↓ I love this little thing so much, she means everything to me ↓ ↓
I hc Xingqiu using she/they just fyi
