Recently, I've seen some people mentioning bafflinghaze's "Dao of the Salted Fish Cultivator" from Scribble Hub/Chrysanthemum Garden. (Found here: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/214431/dao-of-the-salted-fish-salted-fish-cultivator/) They're a really talented writer, so I'm glad if it's catching on~! However, what this lily really wants to know is... *slams hands on table* Has anyone read their other novel, "Fire Burning"!? They have multiple other works but, in particular, "Fire Burning"! If you haven't, "Fire Burning" a really great, short, and already completed story with a trans MC. The characters are all well-developed! The MC is super cool and admirable! Plus, there's no unhealthy romance dynamics. (Also it's a really awesome action fantasy BL. You can find it here: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/160447/fire-burning/) I've been alone in this fandom for so long~! Come chat if you've read it.
Looks interesting *Ignores my cries from my already too long reading list I'll add it to my to read in the future list.
BL hu? Tbh I'm only into Yuri, I may be trash but I'm not rotten, still I'll give this a shot since you seem so passionate about it lol, I'll read the short story at least, thx for the rec.
a complete recc? hmmm you got my attention. wait, a trans MC!? Wow that's a first. Gonna go read it Just read the synopsis on the site. looks interesting but author needs to work on their naming sense lol
Yay~! I also haven't read their "Dao of the Salted fish Cultivator" yet, but it seems to be the one that's picking up attention. They do have a GL oneshot with a trans MC, called "Blooming Flowers of my Heart" (https://www.scribblehub.com/series/175335/blooming-flowers-of-my-heart/). It's super fluffy~! Trans characters are so hard to find in BL. I wrote a short story with a trans MC as well recently but, other than that, I think this is the only other pure BL on the site with one. I was so happy when I found it last year~! I actually thought the names are kind of cool, though. Do they stick out badly for some reason?
oh it is just my personal opinion. The names seem like something author picked randomly for convenience sake. I am someone who puts a lot of thoughts when choosing a character's name so they seem to casual and bland for me. I don't know what the general populace thinks about it.
No problem~! Come back and fangirl with me about "Fire Burning" if you do read it, okay~? (Or at least let me know how you found it.)
Ohhh I'm always happy to read some more GL thank you. And well you're right trans characters are really hard to find in any format actually lol, the only one I can really remember is from a manga called "Kanojo ni Naru Hi" and even in there it's not exactly a trans character but it is .... It's hard to explain but it's a very good manga that deals with that sort of issue very well in a weird way, do recommend it to y'all, it's also BL somewhat.
