spoilers for ep 182 of TSCTIR : "why are you upset now ?"

"When I turned around, Sung Hyunjae caught me. He pulled me right back, took off and threw away my hat, then put his chin on my head. You did this last time, and now again ?"

The Metallic Phantom

I've been meaning to make this post for a while, ever since I was asked on my piece Her Machinations, about Metal Sonic — as a fellow Eggman robot, Omega, is depicted in this AU as... a robo-vac. (I know, the crime we committed here is unforgivable 😭 If wanted, I can speak on Omega and why he is what he is in a different post).

But it begged the question: What about Metal Sonic ? If Omega's a roomba with an attitude (and questionable sentience), then what's Metal ?

And that got me thinking. Where does Metal fit into all this ? Does he even fit into this AU ?

So of course, I consulted my sister, because if anything related to AU Sonic’s history is under inquiry, she's my best bet for an answer.

We went back and forth on ideas, but we still didn't have a clear idea on what exactly he'd be, considering we'd never thought about his role before.

But we did have some vague possibilities:

Metal is a bot, impersonating Sonic. Simple. No kind of corporeal form, just a digital bot that probably caused a bit of trouble with Sonic and his image.

Metal, or the equivalent of, is a catfish who probably did the same thing, impersonating Sonic and scamming his fans.

Either way, it could have been an Eggman scheme all along (for whatever reason) or not. But it could partly explain why Sonic has a distaste in 'fakers'.

Whatever Metal becomes, or if he does, I'm sure he'll prove a nice little mention in one of Sonic's stories as an influencer.

THIS ONE.

Kusuo and Kusuke are Egg and Cheese to me.

Where's that meme with someone posting a picture of two kittens and introducing them as "my son and his brother" and then when someone asks why the other kitten isn't also their son they're like "I don't like him"

That's how I feel posting about the Saiki brothers.

(spoiler header because I drew this in an absolute fugue state immediately after I finished playing, and it's...probably more immediately spoilery than usual, whoops)

Thinking about DP x DC Jason Todd being a revenant again. Here's my scenario. Jason gets called that by some ghost. He's like "what the fuck is that supposed to mean?" He's heard the term before but he doesn't know any actual lore. He googles it. He scrolls past the Leonardo DiCaprio bear movie. He opens the wiki. Sees the words "animated corpse" and gets a chill diwn his spine. He starts reading the first section.

He closes Wikipedia.

That night he has a nightmare that his family buried him, again, this time with precautions. He wakes up in his own grave, full of stones, too heavy to move, to scream.

time travel au where liu qingge and shen qingqiu (yuan) end up accidentally traveling a decade back in time before luo binghe was amitted to qing jing peak and before shen qingqiu had his qi deviation, but after their generation has risen to peak lords.

which means, shen yuan realizes quickly, as they're accosted by said peak lords, that he will have to face shen jiu.

as they're being cleared for demonic energy and the likes, mu qingfang of course instantly detects the poison without a cure eating away at shen yuan's meridians. liu qingge pulls a copy of the treatment plan out of his sleeve (shen yuan blushes a bit, did liu qingge always keep that on hand?), and just like in the current timeline, they agree to keep it under wraps.

shen jiu tries various times to get a moment alone with shen yuan, but he never quite manages because liu qingge is there, who is also... nice?? to him?? for some reason?? shen jiu gets a bit flustered at the solemn politeness and skitters off.

it comes out pretty quickly that shen yuan has "memory loss", and thus can't remember anything that's currently taking place in this time. shen yuan expects scorn, hatred and disdain from shen jiu, expects to be grabbed and interrogated, to arouse suspicion.

but shen jiu looks....... sad???

being transported here threw shen yuan's qi off-balance (even liu qingge had to sit down, which means it's bad), and his cultivation is already so unstable, so when the peak lords are all squabbling and arguing and threatening and raising their voice, he can feel his body shut down. he sees yue qingyuan start to move towards him, which, knowing the future yue qingyuan, he really isn't up for right now—but before the sect leader can get to him someone else is at his back, transferring him qi, holding him up gently by his shoulders, then coaxing him up, leading him outside

shen yuan's been fed qi by every peak lord at least once. he doesn't recognize this one. that means it can only be one person.

he looks up. it's shen jiu.

and it's bizarre, getting fussed over by the scum villain, having gentle hands run along his back, his hair, that clear, soothing voice calming him down. and somehow shen jiu knows exactly what to do?? somehow it works perfectly on him?? it's almost as if shen jiu has known him his whole—

oh.

bodies, like homes, hold memories, even if the original occupants are no longer there. it's the milestone marks on the doorpost that chart a child's growth, blurry photographs faded by time, scuffed floors from well-walked paths, and tiny holes in the walls where pictures once hung.

shen jiu takes him to the bamboo house, pours him tea, and asks, calmly, what he remembers from their childhood.

it's not his childhood, so shen yuan doesn't actually remember anything, but the body he's in does. the memories it holds are emotional rather than visual; he remembers being alone, scared, and hungry. he remembers anger, pain. a dark room. loud voices. he remembers his heart skipping a beat when heavy boots stomp his way. the sound of a whip.

he doesn't have to lie. the memories aren't his own, and they're from long ago, which means shen jiu has them too. and, he supposes, this is his only chance to find out what really happened.

but shen jiu doesn't say anything about it. he just nods and stares, intensely. then he asks shen yuan if he remembers yue qingyuan. shen yuan says no, he doesn't. the conversation takes a very strange turn after that. shen yuan can't help but feel a little queasy when shen jiu asks him if yue qingyuan has taken advantage of his memory loss.

"has he come into your home? has he brought you gifts, sweets? does he invite you for tea? did you accept?"

he has. shen yuan doesn't know why that would be a problem, the sect leader has been nothing but kind and helpful and patient. and generous, too.

when he says yes shen jiu looks furious.

liu qingge (his one) comes to pick him up, and his time with shen jiu is cut short. somewhere he's glad, cuddling into liu qingge's back as he holds him while they fly. he feels a little bad for yue qingyuan, knowing he's probably caused a big fight, but it doesn't sit right with him. he wishes he knew what happened.

.

liu qingge, meanwhile, is having the time of his life fighting himself. it's good practice!
