I read a fic where SQH can speak all the languages from PIDW because he created the world and doesn't even realize that he can do this. In the fic it's not even an immediate thing, but the longer he spends with someone speaking a different language or dialect he starts Learning by Osmosis TM. And I actually LOVE that idea. It could be that all the languages/dialects from PIDM were downloaded in Airplane's brain since birth, but because of The System shenanigans Airplane has no idea he can do this and he doesn't notice when he starts speaking another language. Or it could be that once he meets someone that speaks a different language/dialect the System starts downloading it in SQH'S brain (without telling Airplane), so the first time Moshang meet Mobei doesn't understand him. Or Mobei is speaking the same language that cultivators speak, but either by the time Mobei wakes up or the end of the week SQH spends nursing Mobei back to health, SQH already speaks the same language he does, so from then on that's what they speak to each other. Which would be fucking scary but also impressive. Not only because it would give an edge to SQH's work as spy, proving that he was not lying when he offered his service to Mòbei-jun, but also: How unnerving that this random CQM discipline knows your mother tongue? Something that only Ice demons are supposed to know. How did this fucker learn this if Mobei barely speaks to him! add to the hilarity SQH doesn't know he is the only one that can understand what Mobei says (when he speaks that is), because of course if SQH can speak his language why bother "speaking human"? Bonus: SQQ is driven insane by how SQH switches languages.

Sometimes, I think about the world of PIDW having multiple languages and about Mobei-Jun not even speaking the same language as Shang Qinghua. Let's say that Airplane Bro made an offhand reference to ice demons having their own language, and therefore accidentally implied that Mobei-Jun actually learned a second language from the original Shang Qinghua.

The funniest part is that Moshang having even less ability to communicate in the beginning might somehow actually make their relationship better, if they're so entirely dependent on physical cues. (Or worse, of course, because Moshang can always make a situation worse.) Also, I think it would be funny if it took at least several days for Shang Qinghua to realize that Mobei-Jun isn't just being silent because he's refusing to speak to a "lowly human", but because Mobei-Jun genuinely has no idea what Shang Qinghua is saying.

While I like the idea of this bringing chaos I don't know if having the screen visible and frozen on the Go Home option would make Mobei loose it. Because I'm not sure if he would understand it? Like, we know what that means so to us it is obvious but MBJ doesn't so would he draw the correct conclusion? One of SQH'S eyes suddenly looks funny and there are floating letters following SQH, did someone curse him? What does it mean?

In any case, I like the idea that SQH is unable to see the effects the System left on him. Maybe even SQQ is unable to see that SQH'S eye looks like this, now that the System is broken. But everyone else is able to see this.

And the eye doesn't look just funny, but looking at it makes others either:

Have visions of their original fate in PIDW (not like, their whole life, but you do have a different vision everytime you stare)

Feel irrational fear/hopelessnes/horror (it's so strong that many can Qi deviate or pass out)

Know you are staring at the Creator (and whatever that knowledge entails for each person)

Know what the Creator thinks/feels about you (MANY are left with existential crisis because they now know they are only cannon fodder)

At first I thought this could be completely random, but then I realized that it is better if this depends of SQH'S mood and what he is thinking at that moment.

So if his inner monologue is about how they should respect him because he wrote the world then looking at his eye would make you experience 3 or 4. If he is angry and cursing at the person then 4. If he feels threatened or scared of his life then 2. If he is thinking about the original plot and how different the character he is interacting with is now then 1.

So now no one wants to hold eye contact with SQH now. Except MBJ.

MBJ gets to experience the first 3 once and then he only gets to experience number 4. Because once MBJ knows how SQH feels about him, that he wants to follow him for the rest of his life, that he is afraid of him but still considers him his only friend, that he is God's ideal man and SQH'S favorite person from both lifes, that SQH loves him and would do anything for him that he is obsessed with him and basically only sees him as a person and not just a character then MBJ finally gets his shit together and confesses his feelings/apologizes/kisses him/whatever problem resolution you can think of. And from then on everytime MBJ looks at SQH he only feels love.

Everyone else though is fucking scared of SQH.

Broken System

I love it when the System breaks and gets shut down permanently, but what if it left its marks on its main user? Shang Qinghua won't be able to get out of explaining this even if he really, really wanted to.

Thinking more about it I like the idea of Airplane having Godlike powers. So here the reason why SVSSS happened is because Airplane wrote it.

This would mean that SVSSS is a sort of self fulfilling paradox, it became real because Airplane wrote it, but he wrote it because he lived it. I guess in this scenario he would have to actually write the whole thing Unless he is also kind of the System? but in any case the things he writes (and publishes, he has to publish this things for them to become real, because the power of imagination is what makes them real or whatever) become real.

He doesn't know this, but he has fun making theories about what happened to him and whatever is real. But in any case he remembers about the plant body he gave to YQY and writes a short story about how it worked and these two finally got their HEA, which is kind of why back in SV world it does work.

Eventually SY contacts him. SY is furious that this fucker is making profit with all that happened to him, but also the more he reads SVSSS the more he realizes that what Airplane wrote is exactly what he lived through. Like, one thing would be for Airplane to write what happened but even SY's inner monologues are there.

So SY gets the idea that Airplane must still have access to The System and knows more that he told him. Meaning maybe Airplane can help him go back!

So Airplane and Cucumber bro meet each other and eventually SY thinks that maybe Airplane can write about LBH coming to his rescue and proceeds to try and bully Airplane to do this, but The Great Master Airplane is a little shit and he doesn't do anything for free, so you better pay up Cucumber bro!

SY pays Airplane to write, but Airplane decides to be careful with the whole thing and because he is also a bit skeptical and pities SY he decides to actually write something that in case it doesn't work would serve as a consolation prize for SY. (Also for him because he has come to realize that he misses MBJ and what if SY is right and he can make them go back? Doesn't that mean he could write a happy ending for him where MBJ actually apologizes to him and welcomes him with open arms instead of being angry at him for leaving? Of course that would be too OOC and if he wrote it and it happened then it would have happened because he wrote it, then again that would mean that everything that happened did so because he wrote it)

I've seen takes about Shang Quinghua pressing the Return Home button (either on purpose or by accident) and I've also read takes where the System for some reason (a glitch or a new mission) sends both SY and SQH to the modern world. And they are great BUT.....

What if SQH pressed the Return Home option (I'm thinking on purpose, but you do you) and the System sent both back home.

Let's say that the System didn't give SY that option because he isn't user number 1 and it was up to user number 1 to make this choice. Only, because the System is such an asshole it conveniently disregarded to tell either SY or SQH this.

So SQH not knowing his choice would also affect SY (otherwise he would definitely use this to get SQQ to do as he says, like getting LBH to give him the best food 😂) decides that he will take his chances on the real world. I'm thinking that he does this in part because the System actually answered when he would wake up and told him that in the real world no time has happened or that he would go back before he spilled his ramen and electrocuted himself. The other part could be that he just panicked upon seeing LGY. Or maybe he never saw LGY and was able to explore and sightsee some of the wonders of the world he wrote about and decided that this was as good as it would get here, whereas now that he lived in a cultivation setting he had so much fucking material. He could even write the danmei version of PIDW thanks to Cucumber bro!

So he activates the return home function and proceeds to write SVSSS, only he changes the name of Peerless Cucumber to another dick joke to avoid getting sued, you know, just in case.

For his part SQQ/SY hears the System saying "Activating Return Home sequence in 3, 2, 1" and he proceeds to freak out, except of course he doesn't have time to properly freak out and/or say anything before everything goes black.

SY wakes up in the hospital, his sister found him passed out and proceed to call 110/120*. Because this is SY and he no longer can hear the System he proceeds to go in denial/repression. "Ah... It was all a dream of course" (and to be fair, this would be more of a normal reaction than how he immediately accepted he had transmigrated 😂).

Until some weeks/months/days!? (Knowing Airplane it was probably days) later, Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky starts publishing an spin off/AU of PIDW named SVSSS.

Meanwhile back on SVSSS world either (and because I love SJ and he deserves a happy ending and because YQY also deserves a happy ending and I want these two to reconcile 😭 and what are fanfics for if not to write happy endings for everyone!?!):

SQQ'S body goes into a Qi deviation and SJ wakes up (resuscitates? I'm thinking the System grabbed his soul while he was deviating and put it into storage so SY's soul could occupy the body). Obviously SJ proceeds to FREAK OUT and runs away to CQM sect.

SQQ'S body just stops working. One moment he is breathing and the next he is dead. Somewhere out there SJ wakes up in a plant body (at some point SQH tried to bring back his favorite scum villain and gifted YQY a mushroom plant body with some precise instructions to care for it without telling YQY exactly what the plant was, because he believed if someone could bring back SJ it would be his soulmate YQY, but in case he was wrong better not tell YQY why or what the plant he gifted him was for)

SQQ'S body basically becomes brain dead. Technically alive, but since there is no soul inside the body it is as good as dead (SJ comes back with a healthy plant body and reconciles with YQY in CQM)

In any of these scenarios LBH will freak out, obviously, but in the case of scenario 1 he would have no reason but to think that this like the first time SQQ lost his memories, only now he recuperated many of them and lost the ones that involve LBH. So I guess the best option for a BingYuan reunion would be to go for 2 or 3 because LBH would be looking for SQQ|SY soul not SQQ|SJ (who is alive and safe in CQM sect) but I don't really care for this pairing soooo 🤷🏻‍♀️

Upon crawling out of the earth, SJ encounters YQY who immediately knows that this is Xiao Jiu, he would have the confirmation of what he already knew, that the other SQQ was not SJ. He still has no explanation to what happened or how SQH was able to return SJ to him, but he is glad and thankful to SQH.

SQH who has disappeared. Literally, his body did a Thanos snap and became dust or simply glitched out. Because SQH was never from this world. He was born in this world and given the role of SQH but his body is technically not the one of the original but supplanted it. Similar to a changeling only it was the System and he did this from the womb.

I don't know how it would go from here, kind of a dealers choice, if you want Moshang and BingYuan(?) HEA or if CumPlane HEA in the modern world. Or happy ending for Airplane who now can dedicate time to write whatever he wants because he already has SVSSS written thanks to the System and while that sells he can concentrate in writing other things.
