WIP curiosity question: I would like to know more about JC's no good very bad day!
Okay so! 'JC's no good very bad day' is a SangCheng fic that's kind of part of the Orville Peck Cinematic Universe! The next summer after the main installments, Nie Huaisang goes back to Montana, and this time he decides to bring Jiang Cheng with him to try to cheer him up even though NHS doesn't quite know what's been upsetting JC lately. (The answer is that JC is feeling left behind and abandoned by the people he loves most [including NHS] and feels very much like he's stuck in a rut running the family company on his own, so a bonding trip with NHS sounds like a nice way to spend the summer.) Of course it's not that easy and they've got some shit to figure out between them considering JC is ace and NHS very much is not and that causes some major communication bobbles, but of course they'll get there in the end š Here's a snippet!
--//--
They donāt have dinner nearly as often as Huaisang would like to during the spring, but it really canāt be helped. He always puts his head down and actually works in the spring, getting new textiles and designs ready and ensuring everything in his atelier will run smoothly while he visits Montana for the summer, as he has every year since Mingjue left. Jiang Cheng is infinitely patient with him in this respect, waiting for Huaisang to have a free evening to get together and putting aside anything he might have planned for himself at the drop of a hat if Huaisang texts him.
Heās really justā¦so good. Their routine is dependable in a way so many things in Huaisangās life arenāt, which makes it all the more surprising the day Jiang Cheng breaks routine and texts him a simple request: Drinks tonight?, and the address of a bar that serves nice cocktails that he knows Huaisang likes.Ā
Huaisang dithers over answering for long enough that a second message comes through, another curt one: If you canāt, itās fine.Ā
His thumbs hover over the keyboard for another long moment, his mind crowded with a river of apologies he should definitely make; heās meant to work late tonight on a photo shoot thatās already been pushed back once, and Jiang Cheng is always so good about forgiving him when work gets in the way of hanging outā¦
He hardly ever asks to see him when he knows Huaisang is so busy, so it must be important, but heād already said itās fine if Huaisang missesā
Ahhhh A-Cheng I canāt tonight Iām so sorry ššš can I have a rain check???
Huaisang sends it before he can overthink it, bottom lip caught under his teeth as he watches the read receipt light up, and the typing bubble bloop up right after ā
Yeah, of course. Whenever youāre free.
Huaisang exhales a sigh of relief and sends back so many heart emojis they bump down to the next line as well, and he can just picture Jiang Cheng rolling his eyes (affectionately!) as he goes back to whatever it is he was already doing. Huaisang smiles to himself and gets back to work, reassured. Jiang Cheng really is just so good; the best, actually, and itās ridiculous that he doesnāt even believe it.
-/-
Jiang Cheng goes alone to Huaisangās favorite bar this side of town and scrolls through his own brotherās engagement announcement on fucking Instagram of all places, and drinks until it stops stinging that the post, made at 11:37 that morning, is the first heās heard of it.
#the untamed fanfic#sangcheng#wip#wip ask game#opcu#there are probably going to be a couple of sangcheng fics set during this 2nd summer but they're going to be inspired by different music#so there's the 3zun orville peck universe and then this Sangcheng arc is like. parallel to it? While also within it??#I don't know how to describe it š
#but either way it's basically an excuse for me to dump all my hurt ace feelings into a fic and make JC deal with them lol

A Different Approach
In which Marinette first approaches Lila very differently, and gets a positive result.
+ Bonus Content, basically an added twist which may or may not explain Marinetteās hatred of lying. Trigger warning for stabbing, because children with pointy objects can hurt themselves. Itās pretty mild. Also, trigger warning for blood mention, although the blood is actually unrelated to the stabbing.
Lastly, trigger warning accidental self-harm. All of these warnings apply to the bonus content only.
Confrontation
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ After the first incident where Marinette blew up on Lila, which later caused Volpina, she realised she was going to have to tackle this problem differently. Lila doesnāt seem like the type who likes confrontation, either publicly or privately. But clearly, she does like praise.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Thereās also the fact that Lila must be lying for a reason. What that reason is, Marinette doesnāt know, but Lila does it so often, so chronically, that itās almost like she needs to. Lila treats it like itās all she knows.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ When Marinette confronts Lila, it starts off very similarly to the bathroom scene in Chameleon. Lilaās under the impression that Marinette is going to be an enemy, an obstacle. On some level, that true, but Marinette pulls something she truly does not expect.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinette: Lila, if you like telling people what they want to hear so much, then why donāt you try out for theatre?
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ It takes Lila a solid moment to realise Marinette wasnāt just messing with her and is being entirely sincere.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lila: Iā what?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: Iām not saying I approve of you lying to my friends, but I do acknowledge that youāre really good at acting and telling other people stories. Iām kind of surprised that you havenāt already tried out for it, to be honest? Youād do really well, you have a talent for it.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: I donātā Whatā whatās your angle, here?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: Lila, Iām only trying to give you other options. Lying isnāt always going to get you through life. More often than not, it wonāt, actually. But making a career out of something youāre genuinely good at and seem to enjoy? Youāll go far with that. If you want to try out, theyāre holding auditions for an upcoming play this coming Friday. Itās an edited version of Sleeping Beauty. If you need any help, you can come visit me and recite some lines. I live above Tom and Sabineās bakery, theyāre my parents. Anyways... Thatās all I wanted to say. See you around.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lila is left baffled. In all her past schools, sheās been able to organise her classmates into two separate categories. Those who believe and follow her like sheep, and those who see through her lies and oppose her, either verbally or physically. But Marinette was neither of those. She didnāt try to stop Lila, despite knowing that sheās lying and not approving of itā instead, she gave Lila an outlet. Someplace where she can act and play pretend as much as she wants without anyone judging her for it.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Part of Lila wants to be mad. Sheās so used to the feeling, itās so much easier just to be mad and not think too hard about other people. But thereās just something about Marinette she canāt ignore. Unlike Adrien, Marinette didnāt just sit back or make some passive comments in private about how things are going to end up bad if Lila kept lying. Marinette understood that Lila needed this, and gave her a way to do it without running into a tight spot in the future.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lila wants to be mad. Lila wants to hate Marinette. But she canāt.Ā
Influencing One Another
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lila ends up walking into Tom and Sabineās bakery the next day. She has the script for the audition in her hands. Sheās nervous for some reason, jittery in a way she doesnāt think sheās been in a very long time. Tom and Sabine are kind and smile at her and give her a plate of treats before ushering her upstairs towards Marinetteās bedroom. Itās very warm and friendly.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lila wants to hate them almost immediately. She reserves judgement, just this once. Only because Marinette proved herself to be something different.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinette doesnāt do anything to seem smug or knowing when Lila comes up through the trap door. Marinette simply looks away from her sewing project, gives Lila a slightly surprised but happy smile, and tells her to sit on the chaise for moment while she finishes up the next few stitches.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ That day, Lila spends a lot of the time practicing the lines over and over, with Marinette encouraging her and telling her when things sound a little off or shaky. It was... pleasant. Lila comes home that day and for once, doesnāt lie to her mother. She tells her that sheās auditioning for a play, and she was at someoneās house getting help reciting her lines.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lilaās hesitant to call Marinette a friend. Friends are a concept sheās particularly cynical about. Marinetteās own supposed best friend was a sheep, after all. A self-proclaimed reporter who didnāt even fact-check, who would have dumped Marinette in favor of the new girl rather quickly.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Sheās surprised to find that sheās very irritated about that. That Marinetteās surrounded by sheep, when the girl herself is not. Sheās starting to see Marinette in her own category. A category similar to the one Lila placed herself in, yet also very different. Marinette, like Lila, is not a sheep. Marinette is in control of her own life, everyone adores her on some level, and she is not dumb by any means. SheĀ doesnāt follow the crowd. The crowd follows her. Unlike Lila, however, sheās sometimes blind to the nasty parts of the people surrounding her. And that makes it so, so easy for her to get hurt.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ The next few days leading up to Friday, Lila spends more and more time with Marinette. Sheās noticing things. Marinette has a crush on Adrien, and itās not for superficial reasons. Adrien is willfully blind to it. Thereās no possible way the boy doesnāt know about it, honestly, heās clearly just ignoring the knowledge or not even acknowledging the fact as a fact at all. And the fact that he asked Marinette to set him up with another girlā thatās low. Lila doesnāt even want a boy like that as a trophy boyfriend. She doesnāt understand Marinetteās infatuation with that doormat. Sure, the kindness would hook you in at first, but after all the heartbreak, the mixed signals, the willful ignorance, the passive attitudeā how is the girl not tired of it?
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Thereās other things she noticed. Marinetteās friends treat her blunders and awkwardness like a joke. Sometimes they act like they respect the girl, then other times theyāre poking fun at her, rolling their eyes at her, doubting her confidence. Itās almost like sheās treated as the comic relief sometimes. Alya goes back and fourth from encouraging Marinette to confess to Adrien, to rolling her eyes when Marinette finally seems to muster up the confidence to do it. Marinetteās constantly in a perpetual state of nervousness because of it.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ So, Lila decides to repay an act of kindness. Just this once.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ The next time Alya tries to push Marinette to confess, putting the girl in a nerve-wracking situation, Lila comes in close and tells Marinette not to. She tells Marinette that this isnāt a ride or die situation. She tells Marinette that she should be taking this slow, get to know Adrien better, let him get to know her. Marinette calms down and manages to speak to Adrien normally. Sheās not freaked out or under pressure of having to straight up confess her feelings.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinette and Lila are changing each other, and for the better. Lila aced the audition and got a part in the play. Marinette is taking Lilaās advice and has managed to calm down somewhat, no longer as anxious as she normally is.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lilaās beginning to understand the concept of having a friend. Sheās still not entirely happy using that word, but itās the only one that works. Marinette is a friend. Thatās her category. Marinette is someone she can trust. Marinette knows when she needs to do something and gives her options on how to do it without backlash or compromising her personal wellbeing. Lila begins to feel like sheās flourishing.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinette is beginning to pick up on some of the things Lila usually sees every day. Alya is too pushy, sometimes. She never knew it made her uncomfortable so often until Lila pointed out that she didnāt need to confess. And Adrien has no spine. Adrienās passive, excuses bullies without even understanding the harm theyāve caused just because he wants to believe in the best in people, and lets people use him. Adrienās also... confusing, and she often feels like sheās being strung along by him.
The Change
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lilaās become popular. People are absolutely enamored with her acting, her expressions, and her twist to stories. Sheās great at improv and is observant of her audience, making it easier for her to spin the perfect dialogue, tone of voice, and expression that she knows would capture their hearts. She often goes off script but always hits the important parts, and never strays from the general story and setting. The writers can sometimes get frustrated with her, but they also have an easier time writing her lines because as long as she has the important lines and the general idea of where the conversation will go, sheāll always nail it. Sheās also really great at playing off mistakes and mishaps onstage as things that were supposed to happen.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinetteās become more outspoken about things that bother her. She tells Alya to stop trying to wingman. Alya is offended at first, but Marinette explains that all the pushing only makes her much too anxious, and sheās not incapable of working through her crush on her own. (Marinette is a little offended that Alya thinks that of her. That sheās such a mess on her own that she needs help.)
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lilaās stopped lying. She doesnāt really want the attention of her classmates anymore. She has Marinette, and a whole host of fans who adore her acting. Her mother has always managed to get a seat in the first row at each first showing of Lilaās performances. Marinette has tried to be at almost all of her performances, although sometimes sheās not able to make it, or sheās pulled aside from the audience to help fix a wardrobe malfunction.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinetteās optimism is challenged by Lilaās cynicism, and vice versa. In another world, this would have made them enemies. In this world, it makes them a force to be reckoned with. Lila picks up on the faults and behaviors of people quickly, and Marinette is accepting of faults and can find solutions to help people who need it. Theyāre only young teenagers now, but given some years, theyād perfect their methods and be virtually unstoppable.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinette has let Lila get away with some of the lies she said in the past, mostly because Lila has changed now, and if she went along admitting to some of her lies, it could quite possibly ruin her life. For example, if the principal were to find out Lila was simply skipping school for those months, that would be a major black mark on her record. She could be expelled. Her mother would be called, wouldnāt want to listen to a word Lila would have to say, and their relationship would be strained for possibly years to come. Lilaās already changing for the better. Lilaās already correcting her faults.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lila does go about admitting to some of her lies, though, and apologising. While she may not see the rest of the classmates in a particularly positive light, she sees why Marinette still hangs out with them. While theyāre easily fooled and go along with the masses, people are still complicated and not one-dimensional beings. She shouldnāt have organised them into so few categories. Each person is unique in their own way and similar in other aspects, and it was wrong of her to see them all as other. She had a Me vs. The World mentality, but now she sees her fault in that.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Her classmates are understandably cold and upset, but Marinette is there to settle them down. She reminds them that Lila admitting to her lies was something to be proud of, that Lila was changing and trying correct her wrongs, and they shouldnāt attack her in her attempt to do better. They can be upset that she lied, thereās nothing wrong in being upset that someone lied to you, but donāt brush off her current attempts. Let Lila try. Give her a chance now thatās sheās trying.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ The class keeps their distance for some time, wary of Lila and her seemingly totally new personality. Lilaās not faking anymore. Sheās clearly cynical, and although sheās apologised, sheās made no attempt at befriending anyone. Gradually, though, when itās clear sheās not going to go antagonise anyone or start anything, they begin to relax around her. Some people even ask her advice for things, approach her, because theyāve seen how sheās like with Marinette.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lila begins to see just how complicated individuals are. Sheās beginning to accept it. Rose is even more optimistic than Marinette, ridiculously trusting and forgiving, and while Lila would see that as being vulnerable, Rose makes her think that maybe itās more about enjoying life however you can. Lila can accept and appreciate that. Max is complicated in that heās intelligent to the point of being called a genius, but is not as smart socially as he is academically, which is why he tends to follows others in that area. Which makes sense. She can understand why heād try to learn that way.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Before, Lilaās used her observational skills for picking out what people would accept easily. Now, sheās using them to dig deeper and to push herself and others to greater heights. Before, Marinette was anxious and took however her friends treated her regardless if it made her uncomfortable or not. Now, she sees that her friends have faults, accepts them, and voices her opinions and advice.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Itās not long before Lila and Marinette becomeĀ the classā go-to people when they think theyāve done something wrong and need an outside perspective on what they did and how they need to improve. Lila observes, and Marinette offers advice.
+ Bonus Content
I reiterate, tw stabbing, tw accidental self-harm, tw blood mention
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lila begins to realise that, while Marinette had taken a breather and was able to help Lila with her situation, Marinette does have a deep-seeded hatred for lies. Which makes it more baffling as to why Marinette wanted to help her, and how Marinette somehow knew that Lila needed to be able to tell her stories.Ā
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ When she asks Marinette about this, sheās pretty surprised by her answer.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinette: I used to be a pathological liar, when I was a kid.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Lilaās left to wonder how Marinette Dupain-Cheng, the girl who hates lies with a passion, could possibly have been a pathological liar. She struggles with the idea. Sheās left to wonder what had changed. Talking with other classmates brought a clearer image in her head.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Kim: Marinette used to lie about a lot of things. I donāt really blame her, she always had a lot of trouble making friends. Sometimes they were big lies, other times they were smaller ones. Like, one time she told everyone she was a secret agent, I think? Then other times sheād say things like she cooked breakfast for her parents, or she made the macarons she brought to class.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: What changed?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Kim: One of her lies I think got way too out of hand, heh. She said she couldnāt feel any pain in her left hand, and did really well in following through with that one. I pinched her on the top of her hand so hard it started bleeding, and she didnāt even flinch. She really wanted to prove it for some reason. It kind of escalated, and I wasnāt there for the rest of it, but something bad enough happened that she ended up going to the hospital.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Nino: Oh, I was sorta there. Yeah, Marinette got her hands on a pair of scissors the teacher had in her desk, I donāt know how, and really hurt herself. Somehow missed her hand and ended up stabbing herself, I guess. Didnāt come back to school for weeks.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ The image is getting clearer, but not by much. Maybe when Marinetteās parents caught her lying tendencies, something happened? Not wanting to dig too much, she went back to Marinette and asked directly instead.
Ā Ā Ā ā¢ Marinette: I didnāt miss my hand. I wasnāt actively trying to prove my hand was pain-resistant, I just... stabbed myself in the leg.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: You what?!
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: I wasnāt really thinking. I didnāt actually enjoy lying. It made me feel guilty, and I got so angry at myself I just did it without even realising, and got super freaked out when I saw what I did. I was a seven year old who lied so often just to make friends, and no matter how many friends I got, it felt like nothing I said was enough. I was constantly terrified that if they knew, they wouldnāt like me anymore. I was really desperate for people to pay attention to me, but I also didnāt like the attention I got. I went to therapy for a while, but my therapist wasnāt exactly the best. I mostly ended up figuring out my problems on my own as time went on.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: And... what did you figure out?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: Lying was a learned behavior. I got it from my mom, actually. She sometimes told me to lie to some of her friends, like when she didnāt want to go out, or didnāt want to tell them the real reason why sheās busy.Ā So if her friends asked, I would tell them my mom was busy working on a big order, or she was in the bath, or sheās having a date night with papa. She just wanted alone time. My mom would sometimes get upset if I said the wrong thing, and she was never mean about it, didnāt scold me or anything,Ā but I didnāt like that I disappointed her. So I decided to just... get better.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: Oh.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: Yeah. Eventually it wasnāt about my mom anymore. I didnāt have any friends, so I was lonely pretty often, but then when I started lying about small things to start a conversation, something that would catch their interest, I started getting attention. People started liking me when I started being fake. And I may have been pretty young, but I understood on some level. Other kids didnāt like me when Iām Marinette. They liked me when I told them I was someone else. I wanted to be Marinette, but I also wanted to have friends. It was getting overwhelming.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: How did you get from the hand lie to accidentally hurting yourself?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: I didnāt grab the scissors for my hand, but my parents and my therapist didnāt really believe that when I told them. Around that time I was already interested in fashion design, and I wanted the scissors because I think I had this idea in my head that... uh, that involved the classroom curtains? But I ended up thinking. There was blood on my hand that only got there because I decided to tell another stupid lie, and I was probably going to have to lie about it when I got home, and I was going to lie about what happened to the curtains, and I just kept thinking about all the lies I was going to have to tell, and I started crying, I flailed my hands, and then suddenly there was a pair of scissors stuck in my leg.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: Ouch.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: Yeah... I was a kid who didnāt really know what to do. I started taking my frustration out by creating more than usual, just kept designing more and more clothing. Didnāt stop. I went back to being pretty anti-social, and I was generally left alone for a while. I still really wanted friends though, so I tried other methods, but generally... While I got on friendly terms with everyone, nobody was really my friend, you know? Until Alya showed up. Things have gone a lot more smoothly since then. Iāve been more confident, more responsible, and I have actual accomplishments to my name.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: So, you hate lying because...?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: Because it reminds me of how I used to be, and how harmful it is to yourself and the people around you. I really hate how past me was like.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: You were only a kid.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: Iām still a kid. And itās really hard not to remember parts of your childhood that was just really bad. I know I have a lot of good memories, but when I think about myself at age seven, all I can think about it how constantly guilty and afraid I was. No matter how hard I try, any good memory from back then is totally overshadowed by the lying.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: Why are you clinging to it so much? Youāre better than that, now. You donāt lie for attention, and you donāt need to.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: I still lie sometimes, though.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: So what? People lie every day, lies donāt automatically make you a horrible person. Listen, have you ever lied since then just for the heck of it? Have you lied for any malicious reasons? Have you lied to trick people into doing bad things?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: No!
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: Then what are you getting so hung up about?
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: I...
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: Sometimes people lie because they have to, or because they want a little kid to behave, or because theyāre scared, or lonely, or whatever. Doesnāt mean theyāre horrible. Even people who lie for bad reasons can have good in them. I lied for praise and attention from people I didnāt even like, but you gave me a chance to be better and I took it, didnāt I? I mean, my problems arenāt gone. Liking and trusting people is going to be difficult for me. Iām going to be judgmental, moody, and maybe harsh sometimes. But Iām not a horrible human being. Things arenāt as black and white as that. And you know that, donāt you? Otherwise you wouldnāt have given me a chance.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette:.... Thanks, Lila.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: Donāt thank me for pulling your head out of your ass, Iām just doing my job.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Marinette: Hey!
Ā Ā Ā Ā Lila: You hated a seven year old so much that you took it out on the very concept of lying!Ā I donāt care if that seven year old was you!
Aaaand thatās the end. *wipes brow* Whew, that was long and drawn out.Ā
I donāt find this perfect but I did the best I could. Iām probably gonna be iffy on this no matter how I wrote it, though, so whatever. At least itās done.Ā
You guys can do whatever you wish with this, add your own hcs, stories, etc, doesnāt matter. My blog is meant for everyone to take creative inspiration from.Ā
