SVSSS Fic Rec

I'm updating it everyday, because time crunch.

(Mostly Bingqiu/Bingyuan, Unless Tagged)

*Different Endless Abyss

Guess I'll Die - Shen Qingqiu goes to the Endless Abyss.

Speak No Evil - SQQ gives up his voice to stop Endless Abyss. It happens anyway.

*Amnesia

Night of Yearning - Luo Binghe forgets Shen Qingqiu.

*Jinlan City Goes Differently/Different Reunion/Different Rebirth

High Mountains, How I long

Dew Over - Shen Qingqiu is reborn in the mushroom body and tries to live as Peerless Cucumber.

Honesty is Such a Lonely Word - Shen Qinqiu faces the trial, and Old Palace Master uses a truth-finding artefact.

*Time Loop/Time Travel

Just Like A Monkey (I've Been Dancing My Whole Life) - Instead of being reborn after self-destructing, Shen Qingqiu keeps coming back on the Stairs of the Brothel in Jinlan City.

Master of Dual Cultivation Series - Shen Yuan reboots his time in PIDW. He is traumatised and less happy-go-lucky. This one is multi, with Liu Qingge and Yue Qingyuan getting more focus uptill now (in the first two stories) but Luo Binghe is important too.

*Shen Jiu and Shen Yuan

Deluxe System 2.0: Co-op Mode!

Found Brother Shen brothers.

A-Yuan Has at Least Three Friends - Shen Qingqiu turns into a kid with both Shen Yuan and Shen Jiu's memory. They are the same person.

Replacement Head Disciple Shen Yuan - Set after the Abyss, before Binghe's return. Shen Brothers.

*Epic (These fics are longer and plot-heavy, and won a special place in my heart)

You Reap What You Sow - Luo Binghe is the transmigrator. I thought it would be so-so, but turned out to be one of the best ones I've ever read. Also has Shen brothers.

Xiangyang - When you are born as the daughter of your murderer, what do you do? A question for the ages. No active pairing, original LBH and his harem is present.

Uprooted - Shen Yuan transmigrates as a minor villain in PIDW. Except he's not.

To Stem the Coming Tide - Shen Qingqiu learns about Shang Qinghua a bit earlier, and they plot to avoid their fate. No Endless Abyss.

*IWYWMH & Its AUs

I Wish You Were My Husband - The epickest of epics. It produced a number of spin-offs of it's own. Maybe I should put them under separate sub-headings when I have time. Bingqiu main pair, but has past yuejiu and hints of one-sided liushen.

A Wish to Change Fate - A great fanfic to IWYWMH. Shen Yuan is actually Shen Jiu's reincarnation. This fic touched my heart in all the right ways, gave me things I didn't even know I craved. Someday I should write about it in details. Hings of Bingjiu/Bingyuan (since both are the same).

No Wish for the Wicked - Shen Yuan wasn't around to take the place of Shen Jiu. Sad.

*Bingge

to love another (and to learn yourself) - Bingge tries to get his own Shizun and brings a Shen Yuan. Even without his cultivation power, Shen Yuan is not a pushover. Binggeyuan.

How to Train Your Shen Qingqiu - Another piece I ignored for a long time, but turned out to be very good. I need to reread it.

*WIP

I usually avoid wips, but here are some of the best ones I read:

I Was Transmigrated as a Sword (Gen up till now)

Lotus Seeds - Shen Yuan runs away to save himself from the horrible fate of the Scum Villain - to the realm of the Lotus Eaters.

Scum Villain's Book of Prophecy - Shen jiu reads PIDW and learns the future. Original Luo Binghe/Original Shen Qingqiu. Almost finished, epic length.

Hi, sorry, I just went through the entire sv rip-off tag because I'm all for isekai! Macaque, and all, but I do also want to share my thought on this.

1.) I feel like the relationship between General Ma (or was it Marshal) and Macaque would be strained. Because she cares for Wukong and likely detested all the bullying that Macaque did. So, maybe later in the story, she would snap at Macaque, all rage and disgust at the fact that he might be deceiving Wukong, only to be shocked at Macaque actually listening to her and apologizing. It's an interesting little story moment that can really help fix their relationship.

2.) While I like the fact that Macaque has a good relationship with everyone, I just want a scenario where some demon fucked up real badly and Macaque goes all villain like in his rage. He doesn't go ballistic like Wukong. He goes all sinister and threatening, which really shows the extent of his acting skills and how he is getting comfortable in his role as the "scum villain." Bonus points if the reason he got angry involved Wukong somehow. This can be set after Macaque's journey to figure out how to get more powers, so it just puts into perspective for the people who witnessed this show of power how strong Macaque grew to be. I can see General Liu being all proud, General Ba being surprised and stuttering questions while General Beng just raises his eyebrows. General Ma is conflicted, and Wukong just falls in love with him for the 4th time, again. Macaque's harem are swooned by that sheer power display, and the Brotherhood will all be up in Mac's face, being like, "When did you learn how to do that?". The aftermath would be very funny for our dear isekai'd boy.

3.) It would be funny that while Macaque is oblivious to Wukong's advances, he is entirely aware of Mei and Red Son's towards MK. For example, we know MK knows about Wukong being in live with Macaque, so why not have Macaque give some advice to Red Son on how to win the little monkey demon's heart?

4.) With all the love potions and sex pollens going around, I kinda wanna see Macaque pull a move where he 'saves' Wukong from drinking some tea and getting drugged because he recognized that scent from his time on his journey and obviously seeing and learning a lot of stuff, so he immediately goes on and try to control the situation by having everyone leave the room so it doesn't affect anyone further. What he doesn't know is that the tea was originally meant for HIM and just got mixed up in the kitchen, and when Wukong and Macaque's harem realizes that, they go hunting.

Anyway, that's all I got for now. This AU has been going around my head like a record, and I can't wait to see which direction it takes.

— Dreamy! Anon

Hello! Tysm for sharing ur thoughts on the au :]

1. Well I'll be real with u General Ma is dead first of all. I technically mentioned that in chapter 3 but that's alr if u missed or forgot that part since it is just a tiny detail so yeahh

2. That would be interesting! I'd like to imagine this demon knows Macaque's reputation as being the detested scum villain who bullies their king because of jealousy so when they try to mess with Macaque, they just get their ass totally whooped by not only Macaque but everyone around him cuz let's be real everyone's way too protective of Macaque

3. Oh absolutely! And it's the same for MK's perspective, he sees Wukong being all lovey dovey to Macaque but is totally oblivious to Mei and Red Son's advances just cuz I think it's funny but to also develop Macaque and MK's relationship for the better

4. Yeahh there's bound to be a wife plot for Macaque whether it's a truth potion or a sex pollen, he'd definitely save Wukong and in turn Wukong goes crazy with having to not only control his murderous rage at whoever could poison his beloved but also having to deal with a fevered and dazed Macaque which I think is a fun scenario

I don't think my account is large enough or active enough (especially lately) to necessitate posting this but I also didn't want to just.. not say anything? so.

the tldr of it is that fandom is just not fun for me anymore. it feels like everything is discourse and arguing in circles and pointless, endless debates over fanon. while catering your own social media experience is certainly a needed skill (and one I have a lot of practice in already, thanks) there's also a point where some things just become so prevalent in certain spaces that they're impossible to avoid.

maybe it's bc of the amount of more recently acquired fans or just bc times have changed, but it didn't always feel like this. even just a few years ago with scum villain it felt more like a community, like we all shared love for a common thing and were coming together to yap about it. but maybe that's just nostalgic delusions lol, I don't know. either way, as things are right now it seems like every time I go through a tag to see what's trending it's just... not fun, at best, and at worst actively makes me more exasperated/upset than a text post on tumblr dot com has any right to.

I still adore scum villain (& my other fandoms too) more than anything and I'm not dropping off the face of the earth entirely. this isn't even a sv/fandom blog, for all that I seem to talk about nothing else. but I don't think I'll be talking about it as much on here, and whether that's a temporary or permanent break, I don't know.

anyway, if you actually read this, please don't be an asshole. lighten up a bit, go outside, drink some water, and make sure the things you're doing both online and off are actually making you happy 🫶

3, 11, 13?

3. Do you anticipate writing for a new fandom this year? Which one?

Hmm, I don't think so, but these things do creep up on me! I wasn't expecting to get nearly so much into Scum Villain last year as I ended up doing. At some point I do want to catch up on TGCF (is the last volume out in English? Can't remember) so maybe I'll end up falling into that and completing the trifecta, who knows.

Answered #11 here!

13. Aside from fanfic, are there any other fan works you’d like to try creating? Fanart, or fanvids, gifsets, or podfic?

None of the above. I'm not skilled in any other form of media and I feel too exhausted at the thought of trying to pick up a new skill and master to the point where I'd be willing to share them.

The only one I might feel like I could actually pick up would be bookbinding, but that almost certainly won't happen until we move somewhere with more space.

Fanfic asks for the new year!

[popotobun]

WIP Wednesday again!

Alright, I'm going to make myself do this again! Because I managed to finish a WIP last time because of it... Ask for any fic below to make me work on it some more :>

The main thing I'm working on is a Scum Villain "fix-it" retelling with an older Shen Yuan that's really been fun to write. It's over 11k words and maybe eventually I'll get all the individual pieces I've scribbled down to flow together right. This is the one I'm sharing today.

Also in progress...

battle is 100% foreplay (feihua, Mysterious Lotus Casebook)

MSQ follow-along (FF14, neglected as hell)

Thancred origins AU (FF14, barely touched, but it exists)

Bonus: Ask for "soulmates origins" to make me start editing a mini bang fic I've still got to clean up!

Snippet from the Scum Villain fix-it:

Though night had long since fallen, getting to sleep was a difficult prospect. The air was too still, the insects too loud, the bed too hard, and Shen Yuan’s thoughts too persistent. He’d given up on sleeping after two hours of staring at the insides of his eyelids, wondering if he’d wake again if he actually drifted off. He’d spent the following two hours digging through the house to locate and identify as much as he could. 

He’d tuned the guqin and played a little, finding that his fingers moved with more practiced ease the less he concentrated on trying to play and just let himself play. That took up part of another hour and left him feeling more relaxed than he would have expected. He found neat stacks of talismans that he bullied the System into helping him figure out and, when it wanted to charge points in exchange, started looking through Shen Qingqiu’s books for the answers instead.

Too many of them were focused on poetry and calligraphy for his personal tastes, but there was a shelf tucked away in the spare room that had texts related to cultivation. Some were obviously older - well-worn beginner’s texts that he eagerly dug into - some dealt with sword forms and more advanced techniques, and of course there were some that focused on talismans. Hah! Take that System! The remaining hours of night slowly faded into dawn before he knew it.

He was pulled out of the meditation he’d decided to try by the sound of voices, a flash of the System window and a hand at his wrist. On reflex, he tugged free of the hand, frowning at the glowing display as he blinked his vision clear.

SVSSS - Vol. 1 - Chapter 1 - Scum

Part 1

So I reached the first break line and wow, this MC is really something.

After reading up to the bit Shen Yuan where first faints after his transmigration, and I gotta say......his poker face? Legendary. His nigh instant adaptiveness? Amazing. His ability to subtly, quickly and easily settle his mind? Absolutely envious. Stellar acting skills and memory too.

Really makes me curious about his background. How he spent his life on Earth. I mean, I know he's the youngest son and second youngest child of a wealthy family, but surely it takes more than that.

I'll admit I prefer the donghua opening to this one. The bitchiness just makes it. But this one is good too. I have to agree with Shen Yuan (SY) on the harem aspect, I wonder what happened to all those women. Makes you curious about the other plot holes and red herrings he mentioned.

As for the upset over cultivators still eating and sleeping, I'm going to put it down to hedonism and the preservation of ones humanity and sanity. I mean, can you imagine a life without dreams or chocolate‽ Is it possible? Yes. Do I really need them? No. Am I going to stop anytime soon? Not a chance in hell.

It's interesting how they made Luo Binghe (LBH) a little bit crooked even before he meets the main villain, the first Shen Qinqqiu (OG!SQQ). It means the man doesn't have full blame for what became of the child. A lot of it, maybe even most of it, but not all of it. Now Shen Yuan as Shen Qingqiu (SY!SQQ) gets to deal with the ramifications of that.

I love how SY has a game plan for a potential transmigration. Now there's a fan for you. 😁 Interesting how it says SY suffered a high fever that made him sleep a while. I could swear I heard it was a qi deviation.

That System siren sounds awful. 100 police car sirens and a herd of divine beasts. Ouch. 😬 Poor man. Good luck with the OOC function. Guess that memory of his will be put to good use.

And Yue Qingyuan (YQY) seems to be a bit of an abuse enabler. A sweetie to SQQ, but a leader who's both knowingly and willingly allowing a child of his sect to be abused by a member of authority. I don't know if I like him yet. We'll see.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The rest of the chapter (3 more parts) is under the keep reading link because 4 parts made for a long post 😅

Part 2

I love SY just internally squeeing at LBH despite how terrified the poor man is. Fanboy much? Such fancy compliments, if only Binghe could hear them.

The comparison of OG!SQQ to a courtyard-complex concubine is interesting. I wonder if he feels trapped. He's certainly bitter. And fearful for his position since the medicine excuse worked. How curious. It'll be fun to see where the story takes that character.

SY's thought process is funny. So dramatic. 😂 And at the same time as admiring LBH he's quietly analysing the situation and characters. Not to mention digging up the System's loopholes. He's quite the multitasker. Sharp minded.

Both LBH and Ming Fan are just there in the background going 'wtf is going on here, what happened to shizun'. If only they knew.

Part 3

"Shen Qingqiu was an easygoing person" No honey, you're a 'fuck it, so be it' person. Seriously though, adopting that name as his own already. So adaptable. I know I said it earlier, but this part really does show how well he assesses and breaks down a situation before setting up a clear game plan. He's definitely intelligent.

It'll be fun when he unfreezes the OOC function. Especially since others are already noticing his odd behaviour as it is. Not only was there Binghe and Ming Fan earlier, now his other disciples are looking at him with "wavering faces".

I know he said it was for self-defence, and he listed some very good reasons, but there is no way him wanting to try out is sword nigh immediately after an extensive cramming session wasn't him being a big child getting excited over a cool fantasy weapon. Boys and their toys, really. He went for the sharp leaves pretty quickly too. The leaves show his genuine love for worldbuilding too. Guy saw the MC woo ladies with a cool spell and went 'cool, what else can it do?'. Scared the shit out of himself with both too. 🤣

Ngl, it's hilarious watching him compare LBH to the side characters. Looks at Binghe, 'wow, what a mind, what a heart, such enlightenment, so bright I can barely look at him', looks at Ning Yingying (NYY), 'so young, so silly, little EQ, little IQ, so sweet but so slow', looks at Ming Fan and crew, 'very dumb, dumb and dumber, too pampered, headed for ruin, rip children'. Then there's his view of OG!SQQ. A creepy, old, lecherous hypocrite worthy of castration. A terrible authority who likes beating up young boys and trying to assault Ning Ying Ying. Best of luck Shen Yuan. That's you now.

His take on NYYs behaviour with LBH is curious. I wonder how much of it comes from his little sister, from PIDW or from webnovel tropes in general. I'm guessing it's mainly his sister from how he went into how little girls want a something of their crush's to feel special. There's also LBH's short responses towards her.

And PIDW, wow. I'm kinda curious how the author kept the story going for 200+ years. There's an achievement right there. Not to mention binging that brick in just 20 days. That's what? 10 years worth of story per day? And he still remembers these details? Even if they're a little suppressed at first that's impressive. I wonder what happened in those 200 years for SY to be so focussed on the fake jade pendant, sad origin story aside. LBH must have found it eventually for the frame of reference to exist.

It's kinda fun seeing him speak all fanficy, lingo wise. It's not something you usually see in a novel. He definitely reads fanfics. If he's not read any PIDW fics yet it's only because he died before he could get to it. You can't convince me otherwise. Don't even bother.

I am noticing the distance he's putting between himself and the story. Like when he watched the fight scene from the novels and treated it like peeking into the filming of a screenplay. He still seems fairly focussed on LBH though. And his expected behaviour being to abuse children. Compartmentalisation? If so that's interesting. That's a habit more common in those with anxiety, trauma and the like. So unless the transmigration is the trauma, that says something.

LBH has started noticing him back. First the medicine, now he's caught onto the bloody leaves.

Swapping one green treasure for another.

Part 4

Poor Shen Yuan. He's got his first beginner mission. No more laying about for him. At least he'll be able to shrug off the OOC restriction soon.

It is nice that SY has been able to relax and recuperate thanks to the Sect Leader's (in my opinion, overbearing) doting, and that SY is taking comfort in all the brotherly love. Unfortunate that he still can't see YQY as a person rather than a character. The man straight up got called a mission giving NPC. So the emotional distancing is definitely still there. Wonder how long that'll hold. It's fair enough though, it would be a difficult transition.

Ming Fan is surprisingly capable too, if he has some level of control of all the Peak's runnings. Guess he wasn't just given a good rank because OG!SQQ liked his bullying tactics. Pity he's a dumbass when LBH's around, or worse, when Ning Yingying's around. Guess he's at his 'dumb for girl' teen stage. Well, everyone gets a free dumb teen pass. Not for bullying, but considering the authority in charge isn't just ignoring or encouraging the behaviour, but straight up instigating, he at least gets a little leeway.

The random practicality that comes with the living part of living in a fantasy world is funny. Poor SY doesn't get to play with the flying part of his sword just yet. The System snarking back at Shen Yuan using Harry Potter and flying brooms as an example just makes that scene. And him asking if the System was involved with that story too. I love it.

I'll have to go look for some HP/SVSSS crossover fanfics later.

The worldbuilding that comes with that practicality is right up my alley. Love worldbuilding. Love adding feigned realism to utterly unrealistic fantastical stories. Love seeing the organisational systems of our main groups. Love seeing the interactions and impact of story elements on the world.

This part gives us why people don't fly anywhere, how and when the disciples of Cang Qiong Mountain Sect get their swords. Which showed us the practicality of passing down swords vs each member getting a fancy new one. That must save so much money. And a more developed if crude, Harry Potter-esque explanation on how and why the sword choosing works. Did anyone else read that 'the sword chooses the disciple' bit in Ollivander's voice?

We also got the idea of how the Sect travels with carriages and horses, their influence in the world, and their wealth. We're peeking into the wider world now too. If they're the top, who's under them? The trip to the city will show us more of the common world. And the new demon, the Skinner, that even Shen Yuan doesn't know anything of, will give us a good glimpse of what the cultivators are up against and what they consider training-wheels level.

This brings up five points, a look into OG!SQQ, behaviour on Qing Jing Peak involving LBH, the Skinner demon, Shen Yuan himself and the System as part of the world. I'll start with OG!SQQ.

This trip showed us what was normal for that man, or in Shen Yuan's words, the 'original flavour'. Several tea-sets, a jade chess set that goes everywhere despite it's rare use, any and all manner of comforts that shocks even a self-admitted wealthy second gen kid. Could just be me, but this guy reeks of a bourgeoisie. Not just the technical definition but the cultural one. The sort that gets rich after a poor or mundane life and overcompensates so hard they make a complete ass of themselves to everyone in what they think is a normal or acceptable display of newfound wealth and power.

Then there's the Skinner demon. We've not seen much of this one yet so I don't know much, but it is freaky. And also curious. 9 deaths thus far via a brutal method where the skin is removed from a body so cleanly it would make a surgeon jealous. Which is what got me curious. Do you think a Skinner demon could focus that skill on smaller selected parts for surgery? Like skin grafting or removing it out of the way for organ surgery. Especially if it can put it back just as cleanly. What a gruesome case for our sheltered MC to start with.

Next there's what counts as usual and acceptable behaviour on Qing Jing Peak under OG!SQQ's command. The disciples treat extreme abuse of Binghe as an expected everyday behaviour. No wonder PIDWs LBH was so vicious. When Shen Yuan found a natural way to put an end to it the ringleaders nonsense, he thought it was an encouragement of their behaviour. Which he then added onto later, moving from taunting to abuse, kicking up dirt into him and terrorising him. We also saw Ning Yingying felt perfectly safe and confident to call SQQ out on his bullshit to his face. LBH also showed us the effects of it, like his blanking face when waiting for more abuse from SQQ. The trauma is strong with this one. Followed by everyone's shock when LBH got a free pass onto the carriage.

Which leads us to Shen Yuan. He is sneaky smart. He was probably sassing the System because he's a ball of sass, but he was paying very close attention to how it worked, what he could and couldn't get away with. He did so well he even had well enough idea of it's weak points to flat out defeat it in an argument and get his way. It sulked later, that -5 points was pure pettiness on its part, but what a job well done. As sassy and critical as he is (poor NYY, may you never hear his thoughts), he's also such a fanboy! If only LBH could hear him, compliments everywhere and any excuse to see or help him.

My guy, you are not just scared of him.

Nor is Binghe for that matter. Such pretty and effusive descriptions of his good-looking Shizun. And the little heart prickle at Shizun's laughter and smile. Awwwww, so cute. You don't know what that feeling is yet but you will.

Lastly, there's the System and its place in the world. Thanks to SYs efforts we're getting an idea of its priorities and how it interacts with the world. He's even managed to get more information out of it. So now we know that the world isn't just the polished (published) version of PIDW, but also the notes, stories and whatnot that didn't make the cut. Having to experience all of it sounds ominous. The System also gave him mission information via files. At first I thought they were computer files but SY said they were all over his desk. Were they scrolls? Manilla files? I'm picturing manilla files. It'd be funny if so.

It's a very scary, knowledgeable and controlling existence with surprising humanity in its communication style. I swear it felt more rote-like earlier. Is it adapting to SY!SQQ?

In Conclusion

So in short, I am loving the worldbuilding, the characters and I find the System fascinating.

I think the MC, Shen Yuan, is intelligent, sassy and very adaptable, though is hiding being one hell of a mental block. Luo Binghe is in various stages of shock and is only in for more, The other disciples are also floundering at signs of what will be the new normal. Ning Yingying is very confident and bold, even in the face of her supposed abuser, though the story says that's naivety.

The System is spooky scary but also fun and interesting. It's also petty but that may or may not be part of what I suspect is it adapting to its user, Shen Yuan, partially through mirroring.

I'm also looking forward to how much this deviates from Shen Yuan's PIDW since the System said he would also see the unpolished, unpublished bits. I mean, I know Binghe becomes a hardcore monogamist for Shen Yuan, but outside of that.

About TenFet

Hi, I'm TentacleFetters, and I write adult fanfiction.

When I say "adult," I mean that most - if not all - of my work contains graphic sex and/or violence, and is intended for consumption by mature audiences.

I've just started a new AO3 account, so it's currently empty,

You can find my NO LONGER EMPTY AO3 account here:

https://archiveofourown.org/users/TentacleFetters

Or click the link below:

This blog is for snippets, drabbles, and ideas - basically, anything that won't get published to AO3 as-is. I'll also post links to completed chapters as they go up.

Not all posts here will be graphic, but anything that is will be under a cut with warnings listed at the top of the post, and Community Labels will be added as needed.

Explicit sex scenes will not be posted on this blog at all, as that's against Tumblr guidelines, but they may be linked to when I post AO3 chapter updates. And sexually SUGGESTIVE things might get posted here from time to time (again, with warnings and labels and under a cut).

I have not yet decided if I'm going to link my old AO3 here, yet. Maybe later. Hit me up if you wanna read a bunch of decade-old Transformers fics, lol.

~~~~~

CURRENT MAJOR WORK IN PROGRESS:

FANDOM: "Overlord" (light novels, manga, anime)

WORKING TITLE: Romancing the Bone

(And if you got that pun, you win a cookie. The title will almost certainly change before posting to AO3, though.)

RATING: Explicit

PAIRING: Demiurge/Ainz

SUMMARY (rough wip): Ainz finds himself wondering why he's doing things the hard way and decides to lean on a trusted subordinate for help. Thanks to this, Demiurge suddenly gets to see his god in a whole new light; he didn't think he was even capable of falling in love, but WHOOPS, there he goes!

CONTENT NOTES: Starts out as unrequited lust, to unrequited love, to fully requited. Probably counts as slow burn? Gonna get kinky, but I haven't decided HOW kinky. BDSM will be a thing. Power dynamics will be at play, too, but we're keeping this particular fic consensual and ETHICAL. This is a ROMANCE.

STATUS: Still a long ways to go… A lot of scenes and basic structure are outlined, and the first 2k words or so are totally done. But I don't yet know if this is going to turn into a 40k fic or a 100k monster…

CHAPTERS POSTED SO FAR: 0 out of ...?

~~~~~

CURRENT MINOR WORKS IN PROGRESS:

"Luo Binghe's 5-Step Guide to Consensually Breaking Your Shizun"

Started as a Scum Villain oneshot and now it's a series. 2 parts are up, now. I have plans for at least 2 more. I'll probably try for at least 5, just to match the title, haha.

This seems pretty popular so I'll put this here too. If I find another fic, I'll update it in this post. Happy reading~

Kaito pov/Kaito centric fanfic recommendations list:

Planned future projects:

Start writing fanfics hahaha. First I gotta get over my self esteem and start writing planssss. I do admire everyone who writes, but I really don't want to run out of steam halfway through projects. And if I'm gonna write, I wanna get into the habit of planning! It also allows for tiny details to be hinted in later, super satisfying >v<

Rn I'm super busy with uni so aaaa they might take a while

~

WIP Ideas in my brain, may or may not be actually posted. But definitely feel free to ask me questions about them!

Please send asks, I'm actually begging like please

- Kirby oc + anime au! (i have a series of monstrous documents with meticulous detail, it's getting ridiculous at this point adfghj. But I do need to watch the anime first). I have somehow ended up making an entire au around an oc haha. I'm taking some inspiration from other fandoms and fanworks.

- Dcmk oc/self inserts/transmigration aus (Shinichi/Conan, Kaito, detective boys, maybe some others. We need more of these in this fandom)

- Kaito transmigration au (Kaishin, platonic or romantic not decided yet)

https://vampirecatsw.tumblr.com/tagged/transmigrator%20kaito%20au

Inspired by 'Entirely Out of Spite' by Bgtea, a Genshin fanfic. Would highly recommend! https://archiveofourown.org/works/30349320/chapters/74816049 And also "Scum Villain Self-Saving System" too, since EOoS is inspired by it in turn. I'm crying since writing is just Not Happening XDDD The funniest thing about this au is Kaito being extra giddy to meet Shin/Cone and being a fanboy in general

Kaitou / phantom thief oc Look he just slaps, idk how to explain XD

~

Ok, bye! Hope everyone is doing well! I'm going back to work now because uni is using me like its ragdoll in those flash games lol

[irresistiibles]

was that zhu xudan? Oh no no, that was just ning yingying, a canon character from scum villain's self saving system. they are twenty two years old, use she/her, and are aware that they are not actually from washington dc. too bad they can’t stray from this city for long.

how long has your character been here

just a few weeks to a month. she's no longer panicking but she's still figuring herself out.

what is your character’s job

i'll be honest i have literally no idea. she's still figuring herself out. i think she's taking some classes and working part time, trying to see what she wants to do. i also can't imagine her working full time she doesn't deserve that.

where has your character been pulled from in their fandom

i think i'm going with post-canon or at least like close? if i'm feeling really obnoxious maybe really really right after maigu ridge so she doesn't know that shen qingqiu survived and doesn't know about things being good post-canon but i am a little undecided. at the end of the day she is far enough along in the story to have seen binghe's red flags and promptly gotten over that crush. that's her weird little brother.

has any magic affected your character

nope!

any other info

please be gentle with me i am rereading a little to find her voice

ning yingying my beloved you'll always be famous to me

honestly i give mxtx some shit for her female characters but this is an exception!! i am giving ning yingying a pass!

yes, she's kinda a whiny cry baby but the minute she got out of the original story and wasn't into luo binghe anymore? love that she really actually became a real person with growth and stuff

don't get me wrong she still likes to be baby. she works hard to be babygirl. not like in a manipulative way though idk it's hard to explain

i think she had a mostly decent relationship with the original shen qingqiu despite the rumors. i do think he was projecting onto her a little and she's got learned helplessness as a result that she's still working through

would still be kinda sad to find out the og shen qingqiu died so rip if anyone tells her

and that is where some of the needing to be baby when in front of other people comes from.

but she's also really caring and protective. sweet but will call people out on their shit, just like, gently.

in general nice. she can definitely be a little annoying, but trust me, she used to be way worse i swear

bi, maybe even a whole lesbian. i think the more of binghe's original harem wind up with women the better.

wanted plots:

a roommate. she's probably getting some rent money from shen qingqiu while she settles not gonna lie but she would be very easy to live with. could be a guy or a girl. she's used to being one of the few women in her area so she's comfortable with whatever

some sort of tour guide to help her get used to the city and also teach her modern things

also a study buddy cause she's definitely behind in terms of modern education

let her be the good vibes of a sunshine/grumpy or mean duo. just as long as they aren't like, an absolutely terrible person yingying will be supportive

maybe some dates or some sort of ship?

i'll keep updating this as i reread a little

[ilovewillsolace]

another thing that really excites me about octavian: these fucking bears. every, literally every his action since the end of the son of Neptune is accompanied by bears. everything he does is reflected on the bears (squeezes them out of anger, hugs, strangles, and so on).

oh, by the way, a little disclaimer: I sort out the characters mostly from the point of view of psychology and not literature (and this is btw the best way to parse Octavian than parsing him as a literary hero because riordan did not try to prescribe him specifically) so I warn you in advance that there will be no "octavian walks with bears because of his autism" because I strongly doubt that Rick meant it

so I have two theories about why there are so many of these bears I hate because there are too, too many of them (and both are sad enough)

the first: what do you know about villains and milk?

I'll say right away: I love movies, so I can't help but know about this escalating trope when a villain drinks milk (it subconsciously scares us because milk is associated with something good and warm, and when a villain drinks it, it causes cognitive dissonance and makes us uncomfortable). milk is associated with one of the earliest stages of human development and soft toys appear at a later age, but I think this may have a similar effect.

perhaps Rick wanted to achieve the same effect by prescribing Octavian, who is constantly somehow torturing these toys like "oh no, how dare he cut these toys oh gods, even poor fucking Percy's panda, look at this heartless scum." personally, it seems idiotic to me, but... the fandom is really being conducted on this, many people hate Octavian literally because of this damn panda, we live in a world with a stroke

moreover, the moment when Octavian says to Percy, "what, I don't sacrifice animals, only toys, we have moved away from this tradition" is insanely sweet and endearing for me personally? like look at my boy, he can't even imagine that you can kill animals and— oh gods, I'm such a snot for this moment. and by the way, now I'm going to run a little bit about why this moment causes emotion in me and aggression in the fandom. It's simple: I hate Percy (and that's a really useful quality!) because this way I can look at what is happening, taking into account his point of view, and therefore see not Octavian who cut his pillow, but Octavian who refuses to kill animals

and the second theory: even worse than the first

when these bears pissed me off so much that I decided to figure out why there were so many of them at all, I was pierced by the realization that maybe Riordan was trying to transfer Octavian's personality to toys. a toy is not a person. and subconsciously readers begin to think that in this case you can do anything with it

look at the amount of violence and cruelty towards Octavian in the canon, look at the amount of aggression and hatred towards Octavian in the fandom, and you will understand what I mean

I dont know what else to add about this because both of these theories devastate and kill me

[piosplayhouse]

I JUST SAW UR POSTS ABT CQL AND OH MY GOD YEAH ITS. THE WORST my sibling and I just finished it a couple days ago but after they'd finished reading the novel we were mostly making fun of the show as we watched LOL-- one thing I will say is that I like most of their casting choices bcus yibo gets all the little wangji microexpressions dead-on

It's like !! Idk I know it's a lot of people's first introductions to the series, and I do think it's good on its own, but I hate when people analyze it like an improved extension on mdzs. It's not! More than anything it's like. Mdzs-inspired content honestly. Idk maybe discourse has made me too bitter, but I've seen far too many takes that cql makes mdzs better in some way by adding "ace representation" (I'm referring NOT to ace people who see themselves in cql wx! You guys are great and I'm happy for you!! but to the people who say stuff like so glad they got rid of the icky gay sex and PDA, if your ideal ace representation is quite literally government-censored gay content, please reevaluate) or feminism or something. It's like, idk, if you see it that way then good for you, but I can't help but be a bit cynical that a monopolistic company rife with government censorship would have more authentic intentions than a vulnerable young fem indie author who probably barely makes profit off of her original work. It's the scum villain main in me I guess.

Though the casting is so good!! I'm always surprised when I remember that yibo wasn't an established actor before, he gets all of lwj's little details so perfect. Xiao Zhan too is also incredible. You can tell the cast had a lot of love for the characters, and I'll never fault them for that!

Mole!MC (III)

Ft. Gn!MC, Seven Demon Brothers, side characters

C/W: a little bit suggestive when Levi remembers his anime

Note: “Mole” here means a spy.

Summary: you’re a spy sent by the villains to attend the exchange program.

Chapter 3: The Boring Teacher

"Don't just stand there, help me down!" Mammon shouted.

"I can't."

"What do you mean you can't...oh, that's right..."

The ceiling was very very high for a human, even if you got a staircase, there was no way you could get Mammon down.

"Just ignore him, MC!”

You turned around to see fourth eldest, Satan.

"It was because of his reckless gambling last night that Lucifer punished him by hanging him up there."

"That's a bit..."

That was when you realized Satan was judging the kind of person you were.

(F*ck, I can't trick this guy with my Bambi acting.)

“Why are you still standing here? Do you want Beel to eat all the food or what?" Asmodeus appeared and pointed at Beelzebub who was walking towards the dining room, menacingly.

“Hey, someone get me down!"

💙💛🧡💚💘❤️💜

Fortunately, you were able to save a dish or two for yourself. They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, you couldn't let those demons gobble all of your food.

"Hey, is that the new human exchange student?"

"Yeah, that's them. The human smell is unmistakable."

"They look so delicious. Maybe we could get to them before Beelzebub."

You could hear every word they spoke. You were already used to it. Back in the Phantom City, those demon villains talked about eating you all the time. But your Master was capable of protecting you.. When you grew up a bit, she taught you how to defense yourself. In your RAD uniform's sleeve, you actually hid a dagger imbued with holy magic. You came here prepared.

"Hello. Your name is MC, isn't it?"

“Oh, hello. How do you know my name?" you greeted the silver-haired man before you.

"You don't know me, but I actually know you."

"Huh!?"

"I'm an exchange student from human realm, just like you. My name is Solomon. Nice to meet you, MC."

"Nice to meet you too." you replied and shook his hand.

(This guy is suspicious!) you said to yourself. (Wait a minute, Solomon...silver hair...suspicious look and the way of talking and everything...I have heard of this guy.)

“You look like you have heard of me."

"No, I just thought that you have the same name with King Solomon from the Bible. I read that he was very wise and was very rich too."

"Ahahaha!" Solomon laughed

"Ahem..."

That was when you noticed Lucifer standing behind Solomon.

"Uh-oh...it was nice talking with you. Take care." Solomon left right away.

"Good morning, MC!"

"Good morning, Lucifer! Have you eaten? I didn't see you at breakfast."

"I had my breakfast at the cafeteria. Thanks for asking. By the way, you should not trust Solomon."

"May I ask why?"

"Because he's a man with his own ambitious agenda. He's really cunning and would do anything to achieve his goal, including using others, whether they are human, demons, or angels."

“Alright, I'll be careful with him." you said truthfully. Master Llana once also told you to be careful with Solomon, should you meet him. It seemed like your Master had some story to be told with the man.

(Well, I did meet him, Master.) you said to yourself.

“Alright, go to class, don't be late!" Lucifer said as he prepared to leave.

Fortunately, right at that moment, you remembered Levi's plan. Yesterday, Levi told you about Goldie - Mammon "lover", and how she was confiscated by Lucifer.

"Wait, Lucifer, I want to ask you something. It's about Mammon."

"What's about him?"

"Well...I just want to know more about him."

“*sigh*...for starters, Mammon is a scumbag, the scummiest of scum. And I'm embarrassed to call him a fellow demon, much less my brother."

“C'mon, there must be something good about him. He's the second eldest, so he must be something like your right hand, just like how you are Diavolo's." you said.

The face expression on Lucifer changed, but only for a brief moment.

(Bingo!) you smirked inside your head.

"So what's Mammon's favorite thing?"

"He's the Avatar of Greed, so it would be money. And there's a certain form of money of his I have frozen in order to prevent his reckless spending."

Ring...ring...ring

“Alright, you're a few seconds late for your class. Get going or you'll be in trouble. I'm sure that you won't like detention here."

💙💛🧡💚💘❤️💜

Your first class in Devildom was Devildom Laws, and you got to study with Satan and Asmodeus in this class.

The law itself was interesting. But the teacher, Yaluck, was boring. From his person, his clothes, to how he taught and the horns on his head, one word: boring. He kept repeating what was in the textbook, barely explaining anything. You just wanted to sleep, the teacher surely knew how to sing a lullaby. Even Satan had become bored and got a book out of his bag to read. While Asmo had long been focusing on his make-up.

You turned to look at the book in the Avatar of Wrath’s hands.

THE ADVENTURE OF NEKO THE CAT

(For age 5-12)

Wow, you didn't realize the fourth eldest would be into this kind of book. Or he likes cats. In the files you received on Satan, there was mention of his love for book and knowledge, but there was nothing on cats.

So you decided to try your luck.

"Cats are so cute, right? Neko reminds me so much of my cat at home."

"You have a cat back home?"

"Yeah, he's a black cat, with green eyes, and cute small ears." you began to describe your imaginary cat. However, Satan listened attentively.

"What's his name?" the blonde demon asked.

"...Uh..."

"What is it?"

(Oh no, he's getting suspicious.)

"Uh...it's hard to say...his name is...L...Lucifer."

"Huh...why him?"

"No, he was not named after THE Lucifer. He was named after...uh...Cinderella's stepmother's cat...yeah that's right."

"..."

"..."

"Ahahaha" Satan began to laugh.

(Phew, I'm saved.)

💙💛🧡💚💘❤️💜

Unfortunately, Mr. Yaluck noticed you guys the moment Satan's laughed, which resulted in Satan being sent to detention after school and you had to stay behind class to have a conversation with the teacher.

"No wonder the Great Leader entrusted you with this mission."

"Huh!" you were flabbergasted.

This guy...this BORING teach...was your direct supervisor here. His cover of choice was BORING teacher, seriously. But you couldn't deny that it worked. Who would think their boring law teacher was a mole.

"I was actually struggling on how to meet you and not to raise suspicion from the two Avatars in our class. But you did the job for me. You got me the chance to send them away while I talk with you about 'punishment'."

You did not intend that. It was your scheme to talk to Satan and get on his good side, not sending him into detention. And he's the Avatar of Wrath, you're done for.

After a few minutes, you and Yaluck talked about your plans with each other. You told him you were trying to get on the brothers' good sides, while he told you he was using his teacher identity to get info from students, guards and other teachers. He also heard some rumors about secret passage inside RAD. However, you did not trust him completely and didn't tell him that Lord Pride also directly supervised you inside your private room.

"Continue what you're doing." Yaluck said.

"Alright. Can I leave now?"

"Yes. By the way, these are your homework. You don't need to do it, but just in case Lucifer asks."

"A...alright."

As you prepared to open the door of the classroom to go out, you turned around and ask him.

“Can I get full A on Devildom law without studying?"

“Sure, no problem." Yaluck smiled at you.

💙💛🧡💚💘❤️💜

Asmodeus led you to the cafeteria preserved only for student council officers. The food there was surely more delicious.

"May I join you?" Satan put his tray of food beside yours on the table.

"Oh shit!" you mumbled.

Obey Me! Masterlist

PARINGS: Tomura Shigaraki x Prostitute! Female! Reader

CW: yandere, noncon, degradation, choking, somno? somno, prostitutes, unprepared sex, shigaraki has a FAT crush on mirko and decided he needed to take it out on you

AN: my first shiggy fic! please mind the tags and enjoy <3

For @tomurasprincess Shigaraki Birthday Celebration Collab! enjoy bb <33

Turning 21 and still being a virgin? It was pathetic, really. His birthday was not something he was used to celebrating; there were more important things for him to divert his attention to than a petty holiday. It was just another part of society that needed to be eliminated.

But, damn it all, if Dabi wouldn’t stop pestering him about “letting off steam” down on some street corner.

“I already told you, I don’t want some cheap hooker that’s gonna squeal on us.” Tomura sighed, scratching at his neck with a frustrated vigor. “Take Giran with you if you’re that desperate. Hell, Twice might even go too.”

But Dabi didn’t budge. “I’m not doing this for me, boss. It’ll be good to stop being so pent up and pissy.”

His grin was wide and toothy. Tch, of course, this was some kind of game to him. The bastard probably wanted to see how long he would last his first time, which even he knew wouldn’t be too long. Not that he would admit that out loud, least of all to the man sitting across from him at the bar.

“I am not pent up and pissy. I’ll go as long as you’re the one paying.”

“No sweat off my back, boss. I'll take you somewhere nice. Kurogiri said it's where your old man used to go to relax.”

———

The man wasn't lying when he said the place was nice. It was too nice. Made is his skin crawl to see so much money being thrown around so carelessly. They were all disgusting, sniveling pigs who would all bow to him one day, so he paid them no mind as they passed the whores around as quick as they would a used napkin.

“See, told ya I was takin’ you somewhere nice. So pick someone you like and a room to, uh, get to know them in. I'm off.” With that, Dabi stalked off to find his own kill for the night.

But how could Tomura choose just one? There were so many choices. Women, men, those who blurred the gender lines, mutants, both pretty and ugly. But hey, everyone’s got a fetish nowadays. The elaborate costumes and lingerie they wore meant nothing to him; it would just get in the way.

His eyes scanned the room before he did a double-take over the hero section. Heroes were popular, but Christ, would people be so depraved and desperate they would pay to stick themselves in a fake one just to bust? Apparently he was one of those people tonight. When he saw those bunny ears and that bodysuit, Tomura Shigaraki was done for.

A pink flush dusted his cheeks as he approved the vixen, the imitation of the woman of his dreams, more specifically, you dressed in a Mirko cosplay, tail and all. It was naturally unrequited feelings, but damn if his cock didn't get hard at the sight of Rumi viciously tearing through villains like they weren’t even human. She would make a fine one herself. Ah, but only in his fantasies. Or so he thought until tonight.

Lanky, bone dry fingers make their way around your wrist to yank you up out of your seat. Your eyelash had bat up at him as he had walked over, his attraction towards you was obvious. But he wasn't here to play games, so your coquettish flirting did nothing but make him cringe.

“Come on, little bunny.” He tugged you along to a private room. “We’re going to play together.”

Tomura was undoubtedly more excited than when he first entered the brothel. He sat down on the room's velvet couch and spread his legs, patting his bony left thigh.

“Sit. I don't like to repeat myself, so don't make me.”

You sauntered over to him, giving a slow walk to build than anticipation, but he wasn't feeling patient tonight. Tch, hero slut thinking you impress him? You were nothing but a hole for him to corrupt.

Four fingers brought you to his lap roughly, migrating to your neck for good measure.

“Do you know who I am, Mirko?”

Was he delusional? Not really.

Possibly.

Definitely.

But that wasn't the issue at hand.

A meek “no, sir” stuttered out from your bulging eyes and reddened face as he squeezed with bitterness he didn't know he had.

“No? The number five doesn't know who I am?”

It was true then, he was just scum under her shoes. Who was he kidding? That damn rabbit bitch would kill him without a second thought.

“You think you’re so high and might don't you, hero?” He sneered venomously, tightening his grip while your arms weakly hit him. Good, he liked a challenge. “Looks like you need to be put in your place, bunny bitch.”

Your thrashing did nothing to quell his frustrated growls and huffs as he pulled the thong of the cheap bodysuit to the side—no point in disintegrating the whole thing. God, he couldn't wait to get his cock stuffed to the hilt inside you. His hard cock sprung free from his sweatpants as he pulled up the hood to his black sweatshirt.

The scene was already set in his head, a camera pointed directly at her as he corrupted her hero pussy for all of Japan to see what a whore their number five was. Unfortunately, you would have to do, alone with him in the dank room of the brothel.

God, you were just ruining everything weren't you? You hardly looked like her at all, especially with all that crying and squealing. She would never be so pathetic.

“Shut the fuck up; I’ll give you something to cry about.”

With that, he sheathed himself inside of your unprepared pussy. Oh fuck, did your walls clamp down on him perfectly. At least you were good for something.

Tomura wanted it to hurt, relishing in the screams you let out as he inched his way into your resistant cunt.

“Yeah, that's right. Scream for my cock. It's stretching you out nice and good, isn't it?”

He only got a sob as a response.

“I asked you a question, bitch.”

Ah, an enthusiastic yes. Maybe you weren't such a bad substitute after all. Heavy balls pressed snuggly against your skin as he fought the urge to cum so soon after violating you. The thought of one day being balls deep in Mirko almost sent him over the edge, but looking at your tear-stricken, choked-out expression lulled him back. Ugh, that definitely would keep him busting on the spot.

His pace was brutal as he snapped his hips into yours, snarling and growling all the way.

“You think you're too good for me, Rumi? Think you're hot shit? You're nothing but a breeding bunny for me.”

Your cunt felt heavenly clenching around him, he noticed that the harder he choked you, you squeezed his coco tighter. He quite liked the sound of your crying and pleading for him to stop, it was almost cute. Keyword being almost.

Now he's not one for pain, but damn if they sting on his thighs from slapping against your skin didn't feel just incredible. He has a fleeting thought to wonder how you're feeling, but he supposed it didn’t matter all that much. It was your job to please him, right?

“Cum on this fucking villain cock, Rumi. Show the world you're nothing more than a villain’s whore.”

It was his turn to cry, more so out of frustration as he used your body like a fleshlight, pounding into your now wet cunt mercilessly. God, if this didn't hurt knowing he'd never have her. But you seemed to do the job just fine.

The tail on the back of your bodysuit was bouncing and jumping with his thrust. What he would give just to be able to grab the real thing and hear her squeals of Tomura, more, more!

At some point, you had lost consciousness, and he couldn't find it in himself to care as he continued to chase his pleasure. He moaned louder and bolder now that you were out cold, hell, he even whined a few times. Not that anyone was around, or awake, to hear him.

He couldn't help but sob as he creamed your unresponsive cunt, hunching over your limp body and nuzzling his face into the faux ears you wore. Tomura could imagine how soft the real deal would be as they talked after, saying everything and nothing all at once.

Although it seemed it would be nothing as you were still limp and flushed under his arms. At least you were breathing and had a pulse.

Cleaning himself up, he stuffed a couple of dirty dollars into your still dripping cunt and stalked out of the room.

He’d definitely come back for round two.

🌎🚲 Mid-year Reflection on my 2022 Reading Journey

🌃 tagged by @thecasualbookreviewer; It might be titled a little differently than what you tagged me in. A freak-out reminds me too much of cram and grind culture. I read for fun and enjoyment, not to tick the little boxes. As cliche as it is, it's all about the journey and not the destination. It's about the acquisition of brain worms of which I have farmed many this year.

📚Amount of books you’ve read so far

Please hold I need to actually go count because I haven't in awhile. I'm back it's 43.

📚Best book you’ve read so far in 2022

This is such a difficult question. There were so many good books that I read this year. I feel like I have favorites in different categories like this is an awards ceremony. fffs. Overall, I'm going to go with Scum Villain because it's been just a general good source of brain worms this year. The bees have ate well over that book. If you want to send me fake categories and ask based on that, always game. 📚Best sequel you’ve read so far in 2022

I mean. I've read concurrent sequels (books published in multiple volumes) but I don't count those. Because they're all one story told in multiple parts. As for Sequel sequels... I know absolutely nothing is going to top Husband Materials. Even though I haven't read it yet. LOL.

📚New release you haven’t read yet, but want to

I'd like to read I kissed Sarah Wheeler by Casey Mcquistion because it's her junior novel. I'd like to see how it differentiates between the two others before. I haven't gotten to the Fae Keeper duology yet and that's on my list really high. As well as like. Heaven Official's Blessing III which I haven't gotten around to because I'm not ready to hurt quite yet this week. 📚Most anticipated release for the second half of the year 2ha on my birthday. Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn. Aiden Thomas (Cemetary boys) has a new duology starting in September. Golden Terrace in November. Husband Materials on Tuesday. uhhh. Mushroom II in late august even though my physical got delayed until September. So I'll have to get an ebook if I want to read it. So MANY. Glitterland's re-release in Jan. kdfdffkf 📚Favorite new author (debut or new to you)

well, this year it has really been Alexis Hall. My goal is to be done with all of his books by the end of 2022 so I can eagerly await the: *goes to his website to count* 6 books he's got scheduled for 2023?? man is prolific and I am jealous.

also I fell in love with S.A. Cosby in the same way as I did David Heska Wanbli Weidan this year. I believe DHWW has more books coming out soonish. Also excited for those. 📚Biggest surprise Little Mushroom still holds the biggest shocker for me this year. Because I AM SALTY ABOUT IT AND I WILL NOT BE SILENCED. 📚Book that made you happy

SVSSS, Dark Rise by C.S. Pacat, One Last Stop, A lady for a Duke, Pansies. These are all frequent brain worm topics on nights where my brain bees won't be quiet and let me sleep.

📚Newest fictional crush/newest favorite character:

aro ace here. I don't really do crushes. I just have a lot of fictional children. Newest fictional child is Luo Binghe and Xie Lian. As well as maybe Violet from Dark Rise. Luo Binghe: The protagonist who deserved none of his bullshit ever despite some of the horrible things he did. Did not deserve the absolute trashing the plot gave him in Volume 3.

Xie Lian: Local Tired Grandpa with a traumatic past just wants to collect his trash in peace, and both divine realms have decided he will not do that. More news at 11. Violet: Local mixed girl gets harassed by the plot. Absolutely doesn't deserve it. You will be hearing from my unethical treatment of fictional characters lawyer. this is a joke I swear to god.

📚Book that made you cry:

Honey Girl got me GOOD during Grace Porter's mental breakdown. Been there grace. Been there so hard girlie.

Most recently I was in HYSTERICS over This Way Out. Full on ugly inconsolable crying for like 10 minutes over. well. His family is conservative and Muslim, they reject his gay marriage. But what's worse is his fiancee's family is very white and doesn't understand the stigma and the culture. and they just. so neatly wrap up Amar's family into a judgemental little package. and he's just like. "nope they may be assholes but they are my family and they deserve respect because despite THEIR actions I still LOVE them because they are worthy of LOVE." and it just made me grapple with a lot of complicated feelings I have revolving around my own queerness and family issues. Just a very strong gut punch of complications.

📚Most beautiful book you’ve bought or received this year so far:

have you seen Heaven Official's Blessing's Cover art?? especially for volume three??? fdskfsdf or like. Pale Moon Reflected in the Water?? sdlkjff

📚Book you need to read by the end of the year: KD Edward's Tarot Sequence Books The rest of the Alexis Hall booksets. These are the only books that I am going to REQUIRE myself to finish. Otherwise I'm getting FUNKY with it. No rules.

tagging: free tag from me here. If you want a specific @ I will certainly edit you in.

if ur still doing the bingo i saw you did yqy so maybe OG!sqq/shen jiu? or jgy?

i will ALWAYS return to a meme for JGY and i will do shen jiu too but you will be disappointed i'm sorry

shen jiu

i don't have much to say about them: I'M SORRY i keep saying i need to re-read scum villain because i don't feel like i really... got it? like it just didn't make a huge impression on me the way the other two did, but i think i'll get more out of it now that i'm more familiar with the genre tropes

JGY tho...

they're like a blorbo to me: one of my top top blorbos

they got done DIRTY by the fans: LEAVE JGY ALONE!! BY WHICH I MEAN ENGAGE WITH THE ETHICAL AND CLASS-BASED PROBLEMS HE RAISES AND DON'T JUST THROW HIM INTO YOUR FIC AT THE LAST SECOND AS A 2D VILLAIN

im mentally ill about them: i have said before that in watching CQL, I played the role of lan xichen. i refused-- REFUSED-- to accept that maybe JGY would end up as the villain. this could not be happening. he looks so polite. but your honor i love him. briefly after finishing i felt SO BETRAYED and turned against him and then turned immediately back to justifying all his actions which don't even need justifying actually he's perfect

they've never done anything wrong in their life <3: but literally. (i'm joking.) (or maybe not.)
