#Scumbag System Song

[lost-sheep]

Huwag magtaka (Don't be confused) Kung ako ay di na naghihintay (If I am no longer waiting) Ng ano mang kapalit (For anything in return) Sa inalay kong pag-ibig (For the affections I offered) ... At kung hindi man dumating sa akin ang panahon Na ako ay mahalin mo rin (And if the time for you to return my love never comes for me) Asahan mong di ako mag daramdam (Know that I will not begrudge you)

[alychelms]

I was playing around with some new sumi-e/sakura brushes I downloaded, and I made a passably decent cherry tree and thought "this would be a great background for a Regret of Chunshan drawing!" Then I finished that piece and thought, "Or I could do a whole seasonal thing with the same tree and different pairings!" And this is the result! So here you go, I'm calling the whole series after the chengyu:

春生夏长，秋收冬藏

(pin: chūn shēng xià zhǎng qiū shōu dōng cáng, transl: It sprouts in spring, grows in summer, harvests in autumn, and stores in winter). This describes the agricultural cycle, but also generally refers to the occurrence and development process of things. Edited to add: after discovering the naked molerat weirdness that has consumed SVSSS fandom these past 24 hours, I feel like I picked the wrong day to post something pretty :D

[lqgsword]

i feel like SJ would be a heavy girl group stan and a hater with a capital H of boy groups

he'd have a h=h account on twitter, if you talk shit about his fav gg he Will track you down especially if you're a bg stan. he'd dox people without thinking twice and YQY would help him if he ever got in trouble (he majored in laws bc of SJ)

[rikan-oo]

Listening to Epic Little Wolf, and it really suits Binghe.

I can imagine like three suitable plot moments for that:

1) Binghe vs. Ming Fan and bullies, Shen Qingqiu as Athena.

2) Binghe vs. Sky-Hammer Elder, again Shen Qingqiu as Athena.

3) Binghe in Abyss, Meng Mo as Athena

[skiddliebop]

Discuss: Top songs that Peerless Cucumber has queued up to daydream Luo Binghe AMVs to.

I propose:

Seven Nation Army

I'll Make a Man Out of You (obligatory training montage)

Slipping Through My Fingers (pre-conference era 😔)

Feel free to add on <3

We as society moved on from the svsss songs from centimillimental way too fast

[gurggggleburgle]

Honestly the worst part about having irl slash fic blasting in every restaurant about you in the entire country is you can't even claim royalties on it. Like bitch you're ruining my life we all these albums at least compensate me for my drama.

Hello! I'd like to be able to work on the playlist for The Untold Tale and it's been a long time since I read any of the posts for the music you used for inspiration. What are the songs that Absolutely must be on the playlist and/or the songs that are like apocrypha/special features sort of things? What are the songs that are going to be in the next chapter? Or are like "Nothing Good" where it's inspiration, not actually bgm?

(This Ask is in regards to the SVSSS Bingyuan fic The Untold Tale)

Hi there! To be honest, I listen for the nostalgia so I welcome any new song additions, haha. For TUT, I drown my ears in the C-drama typical tragic love story ballads interspersed with some introspective songs and some blood-pumping badass songs. The lyrics matter most to me. Anything genre typical for the irony. Aside from the few songs highlighted in my A/Ns, I mostly listen to any atmospheric music or OSTs from Chinese xianxia/wuxia/xuanhuan/harem palace period dramas or movies to put me in the writing mood, the more melancholy the better. So you can’t go wrong with anything sung by Zhou Shen.

“Nothing Good” from CW is one of the few outlier ENG songs that helps put me in the mindset of Bingge’s cynical, jaded, rage-against-the-world stallion protagonist energy for his POV scenes in the early part of the story—bonus points if it kinda makes him sound like the big vinegar pot that he is—and then we transition into some peaceful or intense, exciting atmospheric music (think of those broad, sweeping orchestral music with traditional zither or flute instrumentals or the banging of war drums) and then to the happier or romantic music. 🥰 To reflect his narrative story arc/ character development in the fic. Bonus points if there are songs with lyrics that mention fate/ destiny or the cold Will of Heaven, for Shen Yuan’s divinity side of the equation. The more mystical, the better. I typically favor lyrics that relate to how destiny is preordained, to later juxtapose against the angrier songs that sing about defying destiny.

Songs that I think must be on the playlist, if I had to compile songs into an album that I think are representative of TUT:

And, of course, the SVSSS OST Song of Words Unsaid by R1SE (Zhao Lei) (for that genre typical heroic music)

I’m forever sad the fan-made PaPaPa MV was removed, but I’d say the hilarious Resentment of Chunshan bingqiu song is obligatory for the lolz (I posted the roughly translated ENG lyrics which can be read here)

After these, the world is your oyster! 👍 I recommend going for songs that are heroic (that inspire valor) or lovelorn melancholic love ballads, with some traditional music. Chinese lyrics recommended, but ENG music or other languages are acceptable.

hi here's pumpkin man dancing to the entire scumbag/scum villain's self-saving system op (忘言歌)

[idk297472]

OK SO THE SONG PETER BY TAYLOR SWIFT FROM TTPD WORKS SO WELL FOR SHEN JIU

so I was listening to the song, and omfg it works so well (is it just me???) so anyway here’s a detailed run down (u can probs find the lyrics online, I can’t be bothered to screenshot it)

First verse:

first thing to acknowledge is that this is from Shen Jiu’s perspective, and ‘Peter’ is Yue Qingyuan

The line “my lost fearless leader”- YQ was like an older brother to him

“Preserved from when we were just kids”- they were slaves and on the streets together

This is actually a whole chunk, but from “goddess of timing” too

“Peter was she lying?” Is about how YQ was like 10 days too late (I think)

“Goodbye for now” about how he thought YQ was gonna come back (obv he did but SJ doesn’t know that)

Chorus:

Entire chorus is just about him believing YQ broke his promise to return

Second verse:

Entirety of second verse up to including “in different galaxies” is about them on Cang Qiong peak together

Final bit of the second verse is about him leaving because he thought YQ wasn’t going to come

Again, the chorus is the same as before

Bridge:

“I won’t confess that I waited” he won’t pretend he cared about YQ

“Let the lamp burn” he burned down the house he was being abused in

“As the men masqueraded” I can’t remember the specific name but when he was abused in that house by the men and then they lied about it to Qui Haitang and stuff

“The women who sits by the window has turned out the light” is him saying he ‘no longer cares about YQ’

Final chorus is the same as the other two

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my ramblings, have a lovely day and make sure you get enough sleep :) !!!

idk guys

[meephisto-underscore]

im here to post these things bc they are never ever getting finished and they r both like a year old jsdjdhjdjd

[winterbeautyees]

I think I have a special bond with green eyes. Because I look back to all my biggest fictional crush and

1. Shen Qingqiu from Scum Villain Self Saving System (Green was his identity colour: his eyes, his robes and the colour of his peak)

2. Patroclus (Idk, I just always imagine him to have a deep green eyes, it just vibes you know)

3. Louis de Pointe Du Lac from Interview With The Vampire/The Vampire Chronicles (Also a character whose most identifiable part about him is his green eyes)

Should I be glad or concerned with this obsession I suddenly discovered?

[fear-is-truth]

BEING IN A POLY RELATIONSHIP WITH THANOS & NAM-GYU l headcanons

pairing — thanos x reader x nam-gyu warnings — (mild) s2 spoilers. smut author’s note — i wrote some corny lyrics for this lol

──⟢  fear-is-truth — all rights reserved. do not modify, repost, translate, or plagiarise my content.

thanos recruited you into his “team” because of his attraction to you. the rapper didn’t try to hide that he found you hot, and he made sure you knew it, throwing compliments your way. his flirting was over-the-top and shameless. he’d call you “senorita” or “babe” in a sing-song voice, leaning in close to make sure you couldn’t ignore him. his favourite move was to serenade you with cheesy raps that made everyone cringe.

one day, thanos sidles up to you, a wide, cocky-ass smirk plastered on his face. he’s got his hands on his hips, like he’s about to drop the hottest bars in the universe. “yo, senorita,” he starts, “you’re the queen of my world, can’t you see? ain’t no one gonna take my throne, you and me, together, baby, we’re destiny!” while nam-gyu, in the background, is rolling his eyes so hard he could probably see the back of his skull. but thanos keeps going, totally into it, “baby, we can rule the game, you and i, got them all thinking i’m the reason they’ll die. you’ll be my queen, i’ll be your king, together we’ll make this whole thing sing!” it’s a miracle you don’t combust from secondhand embarrassment.

nam-gyu, as thanos’s second-in-command, was pissed from the start. in the beginning, it seemed like he was just territorial—angry that you were disrupting the group dynamic. he’d throw side comments like, “oh, great, now we’ve got a distraction,” and give you cold, assessing looks. his irritation was obvious, especially when thanos started giving you preferential treatment, like sitting beside you during meals or casually throwing an arm over your shoulder during group talks.

he tried to act more “mature” than thanos (spoiler: he wasn’t). his idea of flirting was to act tough, which mostly involved bullying weaker players to look impressive. it was like watching a middle schooler try to flex for their crush. in reality, he just looks like an asshole, and you feel annoyed by his attempts to bully someone into submission to show off. he catches your disapproving glare and immediately tries to backtrack, but it just makes it worse.

thanos wasn’t subtle about his future plans for you. “after we win this thing, you’re coming with me,” he promised you confidently. “i’ll make you my official girl. the fans will eat it up—thanos and his queen.” he didn’t ask if you wanted that, just assumed you’d go along with it lol. nam-gyu, on the other hand, played dirtier. when thanos wasn’t around, he tried to plant seeds of doubt in your mind, leaning in to whisper confidentially. “he’s a scumbag, you know. all talk, no loyalty. don’t let him fool you,”

during meals, both of them insisted on sitting next to you, even if it meant practically wrestling each other to the ground. there were no tables, just groups eating near the bunk beds or stairs leading up to them, and you always ended up sandwiched between the two guys. thanos would slouch with his arm around your shoulders, smirking at anyone who looked your way. nam-gyu would mutter snide comments under his breath, low enough for you to hear, but not enough for thanos to notice.

then came the game “mingle,” where the players had to group up based on a random number announced over the PA system. when the voice said “two,” both thanos and nam-gyu grabbed your arm at the same time. “she’s going with me,” thanos barked, pulling you toward him. “what the fuck about me?” nam-gyu shot back, tugging you in the opposite direction. if it hadn’t been for se-mi, who quickly pulled you into a room with her (the two boys found a room next to you), the four of you would’ve fucking died.

the tension escalated at night. at first, both of them insisted on sleeping next to your bunk bed. but as time went on, they started fighting over who got to sleep in your bed. it started as bickering—“move, she doesn’t want you here,” nam-gyu would snap, trying to shove thanos aside. “speak for yourself, bro,” thanos would shoot back, climbing up anyway. it’s like a power struggle between two self-proclaimed alpha males, but it’s over you, which just feels awkward. each one tries to subtly imply their superiority by making the argument about who has the better “qualifications” to be your bunkmate. eventually, the rivalry reached its peak when they both tried to squeeze into your bed at the same time. you ended up stuck between them, neither willing to back down, and neither particularly caring how uncomfortable it made you.

despite the rivalry, the situation eventually settles into some sort of… equilibrium. neither thanos nor nam-gyu backed down completely, but they seemed to reach an unspoken agreement. the two of them started “sharing” you, like some fucked up custody arrangement.

you start to realise that maybe—just maybe—this unholy triangle might not be such a bad thing after all. meal time turned into a prelude for something else entirely. when everyone was distracted, one of them would catch your eye, silently signaling for you to follow. you’d find yourself slipping away to meet them in the bathroom stall.

thanos is all energy, and unable to shut up—being balls deep inside you, his dirty talk came easily, an endless stream of words that tumbled out in rapid succession, that had you equal parts flustered and irritated. especially with how careless he was. you’d have to kiss him just to silence him, pressing your lips to his until his words were replaced by muffled groans. whenever you grabbed his hair, his reaction was instant—a breathy whimper that only seemed to spur him on more. but almost as quickly as the sound left his lips, he was smirking, leaning in to tease you. “don’t mess it up, baby,” he’d warn, his voice playful yet smug. “this shit cost a lot to style.”

nam-gyu, in contrast, was rougher and far less interested in theatrics. he wasn’t one for words—far too focused to waste time on anything unnecessary. he had you pinned firmly against the partition wall, the cool surface digging into your back as beads of perspiration formed along his brow. the thin structure trembled violently under the sheer force of his movements, creaking with every thrust as though it might give way at any second. the silence between you was broken only by a few curses and grunts that escaped him.
