overthinkingthis

That seems to be the case in the fandom generally, no matter what platform!

I'm glad you're here. I get what you mean, though. It's pretty quiet for me here too, and I often don't cross-post or interact much for that reason. It's not you (or maybe it's me too haha)

Hahaha I was going through my phone and reliving some oldies but goodies... wyb has been so shameless and I love it!

Yay! I'm glad you enjoyed the yearning... of course Yibo noticed him too!

Collage of photos showing Wang Yibo wearing a pink Hawaiian style shirt with hibiscus, a grey shirt with red flowers on the back and sleeves (both worn on SDC in 2022) and the red hibiscus logo that Xiao Zhan designed for his Tod's collaboration that year.

Remember when 🐰 designed a new 🌺 logo for his brand collab and 🦁 kept wearing 🌺 on sdc? King 🦐 behavior

In which I finally succumbed to the siren call of racer!wyb x photographer!xz

Trying this again... I'm posting these from my phone and realized I repeated a line twice and didn't provide a link!

Two photos taken by turtle photographer Global Fever at Yibo's recent races, taken from behind at close range. In the first he is wearing a blue suit, fists raised in triumph. In the second, he's wearing a pink suit and looking out at the track and the spectators.

The photographer falls for his subject.

Yibo standing in his racing gear after his endurance eace, his pink suit half on, in a black tee shirt. He's standing on the track with his back to the camera, taking a photo of the night sky with the moon shining brightly.

No matter how far apart they are, their love is as constant as the moon.

Yibo in his white skin tight Evisu racing shirt, showing off his well developed pecs

Xiao Zhan wearing a white T-shirt. His arms are crossed, which shows off his bulging biceps and pecs

Imagine them kissing and pressing those chests together

Yibo in a blue Mickey Mouse shirt, white cat paws, and black cat ears. He has a slightly mischievous look on his face.

I've been kicking my feet happily over these sweaters 🥹

Soft boys in sweaters, wearing their love out in the open.

XZS posted 18 birthday photos and wow, he's wearing a sweater with a race car on it? 😍 I wish him a wonderful 34th year full of love and sweetness ❤️.

Maybe the other outfit was red hahhaha

And he told an interviewer he chose this outfit for the colors 😭

Yibo at Paris Fashion Week wearing Loewe... and the bright yellow of his sweater is blinding (yellow is the color for the yizhan ship). He's wearing the yellow over a green shirt, his fandom color.

The yellow is blinding 💛

This is magic! 😍

Ooh! This is like magic! I love seeing your art develop like this 😍

XZS posted 18 (yi/bo) gorgeous photos of 🐰 on 9/28 (就爱博, just love bo) at 20:16 (8:16 pm or 🦁🐰... 16 is the number of strokes in 🐰's name) & the only photos he's smiling in are photos 5 (我 or me), 8 (Bo), 13 (yizhan), and 18 (yi/bo)... all just a coincidence, I'm sure! 😉

Oh god the untied tie, the unbuttoned shirt, the necklace on his bare chest, the shirt tail pulled out, those eyes, the way he sprawls those long legs out... he's looking like that and is going to be singing about doing something all night ahahhaha help

You drew such a perfect image that it inspired one of the ending scenes... I felt both of your pieces really captured the story I wanted to tell, so it was a lovely collaboration... thank you!

Read "A Royal Mess" (and enjoy Minami's gorgeous art) here: archiveofourown.org/works/692212...

😍 Look at the beautiful art that Minami made for "A Royal Mess"! It was the perfect image for the ending 💚❤️ I'm so grateful to @shenhaichuang.bsky.social for lending her talent to this work!

This is such a lovely image... so perfect for the ending! It just feels so warm and happy 🥰 Thank you so much for creating such beautiful art for this story!

Omg hahah bringing my clowning over from the old place 😅😅😅

Yibo wearing a green shell with the hood pulled up over his head, looking into the camera with a brooding expression. His long wavy bangs fall over his flawless face so that only one eye is visible, staring intently into my soul

Yibo wearing a yellow shell, holding up a piece of paper. Bright, playful eyes look out from under a fringe of floofy hair, one soft, pinchable cheek lifted as he flashes an unbearably adorable smile

aggression cute aggression

Xiao Zhan sitting in a chair in a very appealing sprawl, showing off his endless slim legs, toying with my sanity

Xiao Zhan's slender ankles showcased by tightly laced black leather boots

I just realized that he's wearing black leather boots tightly laced up over his slender ankles and I am now having A Moment

Beautiful cover art for "A Royal Mess," created by Minami. Three princes are rendered in dreamy watercolor: Wang Yibo looking soft in blond hair and a white blouse tied with a green ribbon, Xiao Zhan with long hair brushed back from his forehead, hand to his forehead, and below them, another Wang Yibo, dressed in black, with dark hair and a fierce look on his face. A trail of pink flowers divides the princes.

Gorgeous cover art by Max for "the world pulled over your eyes." Wang Yibo and Xiao Zhan are shown wearing black mirrored sunglasses and black clothing against the iconic Matrix backdrop of green characters raining down the image.

Cover art for "When Wang Yibo Met Xiao Zhan," showing Xiao Zhan in a dark grey jumpsuit and Wang Yibo in a black suit jacket (from their TTXS 2019 episode). They're standing and looking at each other, with the skyline of Shanghai at the bottom foreground.

So grateful to @finishwhatyoustart.bsky.social & @wipbigbang.bsky.social b/c without their events, I wouldn't have finished 3 VERY different fics: an Yizhan fairy tale, a sci-fi thriller, & a romcom. And much love to @maxmaks.bsky.social & @shenhaichuang.bsky.social for their amazing art! (🔗 below)
