Summary:

[COME ASAP!!!!]

The notorious and nefarious scoundrel also known under the name of Blade pulled up his wrist to look at it. A watch with the dial snuggled there told him the hour. According to the broken dial, he received the message two minutes ago, but what if… If only he knew how to put the clock on his phone since the last time he tried to change his wallpaper and deleted the application by mistake. What he could perfectly understand, however, was those eight letters. He had to come as soon as possible and if there was no address coming with the message, he could tell without any doubt where he had to go.

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

Yingxing 'Blade' lives in the blood. Dan Heng lives in the books. One look, one heat and one pregnant belly brought them there.

Here is where you can read it!

Modern au college renheng part 2!!

Renren has summoned friends for advice!

PLOT

PART 1

[cloud-hymn]

modern au renheng as yanqing’s godparents but neither of them have any idea how to interact with a child so their whole dynamic is just that one video that’s like

dan heng: …

blade: …so do you want a beer?

jing yuan: HES 13

blade: IDK WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH HIM???

[shadowcatzone]

I’m watching a friend draft a modern-ish au with some JingRenHeng sprinkled in and xDDD I swear it’s as tense as you would expect but their brand of humor is something else. (Well, I dunno if you might enjoy it, but I certainly do!)

RenHeng: *serious and tense exes with a wholesome-turned-angsty backstory*

JingHeng: *awkward lads where the latter doesn’t know where they stand with each other while the former is sad but content with just watching the other from afar*

JingRen: *tension over Dan Heng but also????? where do they stand with each other*

Also JingRenHeng:

Memory Zone Meme monster: *commits home invasion*

Dan Heng: 👀 “Well then, guess I’m using that anniversary gift after all!”

Said pre-breakup RenHeng anniversary gift is a tactical axe. Blade had no idea what to get Dan Heng their very first anniversary but he did know that he wanted the other to be safe. Dan Heng was so sure it would be useless until post-breakup.

Jing Yuan walks into Dan Heng’s apartment and almost has a heart attack from seeing all the bloodshed.

Blade is actually just as confused. He thought it would be against a human burglar when Dan Heng would finally use the axe, not against some eldritch dream monster.

BONUS:

Sleepie: *exists*

Jing Yuan: 😱 “Bailu…? What do you have there…?”

Bailu: “Apple juice!” 😊

Jing Yuan: “…Dan Heng—”

Dan Heng: “The guard dog.”

Jing Yuan: “Who—”

Dan Heng: “Apartment security.”

Blade: 😶 “That’s a weird-looking dog…”

that does sound fun, yeah. You can send me the link/title when they're done.

Brother's Friend

.Character: Jing Yuan .Notes: Modern au. Female reader. Blade's real name is used. Dan Heng and Blade are twins brothers (sorry renheng). What am I doing.

– Jing Yuan, who’s the childhood best friend of your older brothers Ying Xing and Dan Heng. He lives next door, so it's only natural that they know each other.

– Jing Yuan who offers to help you find a date for a school’s festival dance because your overprotective brothers scare off any guy within a 50 mile radius of you.

– Jing Yuan, who used to be that pesky child who teased you with Ying Xing and read your pink, glitter diary that had a broken lock with Dan Heng, now makes your face grow warm with his charming smile and warm touches.

– Jing Yuan, who agrees and smiles a funny little smile when Ying Xing complains that “you should be thankful she isn’t your kid sister.” When you smack Ying Xing (that rascal!) on the shoulder, annoyed at the typical insult, Dan Heng sighs in exasperation and Jing Yuan holds back a chuckle. He’s definitely very thankful that he’s not your big brother.

– Jing Yuan, who always excuses himself whenever you thank him or complement him. Not because he wants to hurt you or anything - it’s just because he can’t contain his raging blush nor the excited squeal threatening to escape. You’re just too adorable!

– Jing Yuan who holds your hand and wraps his fluffy winter jacket around your shoulders to shelter you from the cold autumn afternoons when you’re walking home from school. He offered his services not just to get Ying Xing and Dan Heng out of your hair (they insist you’re too young to walk home alone - Ying Xing is more insistent than Dan Heng), but so that he gets to hold you close and spend more alone time with you.

– Jing Yuan who makes it feel so natural to have dinner together when he drops by to hangout with your brother; to lean on his shoulder when watching a home movie; to laugh and gossip about the teachers when he’s supposed to be helping you with your homework.

– Jing Yuan, whose face comes to mind when you close your eyes and try to picture the ideal date… and perhaps even the ideal boyfriend. But there’s no way he;d be interested in the baby sister of his best friends, right?

– Jing Yuan, whom you realise is actually someone you like love. It’s not awkward at all with him - you don't have to memorise conversation starters or quiz him on his hobbies. He’s comfortable to be around, and he even shares his treasured Immortal’s delight with you - and only you. INDIRECT KISS LEGGSGO

– Jing Yuan, who has a smile (smirk?) on his face that tells you he knows something that you don’t. When he pulls you up from your seat on the front porch of your house with a little too much  force so that you lose your balance and fall into his arms, it’s Jing Yuan who says “I found a guy for your dance, and your brothers will approve of him because he’s their best friend.”

– Jing Yuan who chuckles when you bury your face into his neck and presses a kiss on your head. Jing Yuan who can’t help but coo when you mumble out a meek “yes,” muffled by his clothes when he asks you out.

– Jing Yuan, who’s been there from the very beginning.

[saunne]

You know what babe? M gon ask u about yingheng now cause they 💯💯 need the spotlight as well and i WANT the world to know how crazy u are about them. Go fuck shit up dear spouse

*looks at inbox* *looks at ask* *looks at date*

WELL GUESS WHO FORGOR TO ANSWER. I did the XingRen one here but I guess ADHDon't then got in the way and since I open my inbox like, once every three month I just. Forgor. We're kinning Acheron in this house baby.

So. Heart is big cause So Many Thoughts but I think indicating that it could have taken off like a rocket from the top right corner towards distant horizons was also a possibility.

So, YingHeng. YingHeng as "HCQ Era Furnace Master Yingxing" and "Dan Heng of the Astral Express" (and for once it's fixated dynamic). It is a rareship and even more, it is a crackship cause there is absolutely no way for them to ever fucking meet in canon.

Doesn't mean I won't try tho.

(Long babbling under the cut)

It doesn't make any sense because they do not belong to the same timeline at all (700 years apart more or less) and because the only way for them to meet (and do more than that) would actually break the space-time continuum OR involve some really strange and fucked up revival/reincarnation with the existing possibility of destroying/replacing Blade in the worst case scenario process.

BUT AEONS IT DOES COMPEL ME SO MUCH and you would know cause I shoved at least 4 WIPs about them right in your face lmao.

I like this ship because it compels me and scratches a itch in a way that classic RenHeng never really managed to do except for certain fics.

I will admit that I sometimes have troubles with the RenHeng ship and the way their dynamic can be/is portrayed despite loving the ship. RenHeng has a common past involving Yingxing and Dan Feng their past-self/incarnations (whether one agrees or not with the theory/system of thought that DH = DF for that matter) and their ship is based on acceptance/rejection/reflection around this common past, the idea of responsibility and above all an idea of healing of trauma (for BOTH OF THEM).

The main thing is that RenHeng often involves violence (canonical and/or added one) and more or less toxic relationship tropes that I don't always have the desire or energy to deal with, even if the writing of the fic is of exceptional quality (I have a lot of RenHeng fics like that in the waiting list fir when I'm in the mood for it tho) . Sometimes I just want something that's still as emotionally charged but a lot simpler and that's where YingHeng came in.

The biggest problem for YingHeng is to "bring" Yingxing back into the picture and there are several solutions for that :

time travel (him coming or Dan Heng going)

dimensional travel (Curios are very practical for this kind of stupid plot)

Yingxing's memory having survived in one way or another (in an object, in Dan Heng's memories inherited from Dan Feng, sealed outside or inside of Blade)

Alternate Universe (it's easier to make him appear in a modern AU settings than in sorta-canon HSR settings lmao)

I like the third option the best, because it allows me to be able to keep Blade in the picture if I want (whether to do a YingHengRen or just an opposition/comparison study between Yingxing and Blade) or not ( by "killing" Blade by retransforming him/rewinding him back to Yingxing).

My two mains thoughts paths about YingHeng are “longing for something you never had” and “mourning for something you never thought you would have to mourn”.

"Longing for something you never had" is mostly Dan Heng centered. I like to start from the idea that Dan Feng's surviving memories can be a curse because they blur the separation line between their respective identities, but that it can also be a blessing. I like the idea that fuzzy and imprecise surviving memories of XingYue's passionate love could have been one of Dan Heng's greatest comforts during his imprisonment in the Shackling Prison. I like the idea that Dan Heng fell in love with the idea of Yingxing or at least fell in love with the idea of Love and Being Loved because of these memories of Yingxing.

All of this while being intimately aware that they were never intended for him.

I like the idea of Dan Heng longing for something that doesn't belong to him. Of being unable to let go of this feeling of "wanting/desiring/missing" Yingxing's love he felt in Dan Feng's memories despite wanting to separate as much as possible from Dan Feng and the burden of his unintended inheritance. Which can lead to a feeling of shame/embarrassment due to being sorta "voyeuristic" and yet attracted to it. Or on the contrary, a sort of defiance with a "these memories have been imposed on me against my consent so I don't have to feel guilty about anything, let alone my feelings about them".

For Yingxing, it was the idea of how he would deal with grief that interested me. Firstly the mourning of his life/friends (and what they became) if it's a time/dimensional travel scenario. Secondly, if his memory is forced back into Blade's body or stuffed in a newly created body to "re-alive him", the mourning of his past death and having to continue / start living again (whether or not he is immortal after said resurrection). If Blade remains alive it adds yet another level of mourning/philosophical reflection on identity, on what makes someone unique and all the tropes around "what would you ask/would say to your past/future self if given the opportunity". I like the idea of exploring the grievance of the one who died/should have died first ending up mourning the one who should have lived/who was supposed to live.

I like the idea of how Yingxing and Blade might treat differently the whole "is Dan Heng = Dan Feng ?" and "does Dan Heng has to pay for Dan Feng's mistakes/errors/crimes ?". I like the idea of Yingxing being "excuse me I was married to/in love with Dan Feng and I can tell you that Dan Heng is definitely not him" compared to Jingliu and Blade's "Dan Heng is Dan Feng" motto. I like the idea of exploring the theme of the difference between Dan Heng and Dan Feng through Yingxing's eyes rather than Blade's.

I like the idea of Yingxing bringing emotional and identity stability to Dan Heng by falling in love with Dan Heng not for his similarities with Dan Feng but for his differences with him. Because Dan Feng was irreplaceable and nothing could take his place in Yingxing's heart, especially not what would appear as a poor copy of his former lover. I want Dan Heng to feel comfortable asking Yingxing about Dan Feng, because Yingxing never compared them as a before/after or past/present but always kept talking about Dan Feng as if he was Dan Heng's deceased brother or distant relative.

Also, I'm sorry but I find Yingxing more aesthetically pleasing to the eyes than Blade, even more when you put him in the Artisanship Commission uniform and next to short-haired no Vidyadhara features 4-Stars Dan Heng. Also, Yingxing should have wrinkles like crow feets and smile lines. And not completely white hair, but more like a salt and pepper hair with mostly grey/white hair but some surviving black hair.

I think they should hold hands and cuddle in the Archives Room while Dan Heng updates Yingxing on what happened while he was dead and asks him about crafting and Zhuming to add to the Express Database.

*gestures* I'm nowhere near the term "sanity" when it comes to them.

More rnhg modern au from me because I can't draw angst /sry i rarely draw🙏

⚠️OOC

[dollfaced-erin]

Dragon's Cradle (Blade x F!Reader x Jing Yuan)

I'm planning on posting a new fanfic short series or something about honkai star rail right now. i'm not sure should it be in modern AU or the current AU it is set in now.

There will be a few parts of the plot that will be a little twisted to fit in with the MC's appearance in the story. I'm sorry to all RenHeng and JingRen shippers, but since this is a JingYuan x Reader x Blade, RenHeng and JingRen shall be kept to a minimum, hence the parts i will twist in the original game. This AU will use Stelle as the trailblazer.

any requests and questions will be answered !! i am also open to one-shots regarding the character i will create !

[megumismom]

renheng modern au where theyre divorced but still in love with shared custody of bailu

[anshares]

Comic for the modern au college renheng i posted yesterday!

Plot here

[narzissenkreuz-ordo]

i want to draw modern au renheng w/ my personal gender headcanons for tmrrws daily doodle but idk if folks would vibe with my imbibitor lunae headcanons fdjskflds

[shadowcatzone]

(the au in which only the high elder of the vidyadhara can get one child in each reincarnation)

-imbibitor lunae being too good to have kids (kids are for losers and distract you from your job uwu) until dan feng who in the beginning thought thought the same before meeting yingxing

Dan feng: fertilize my eggs please.

Yingxing: what

Dan feng: what

-xingyue child having a long list of health concerns from birth. Bc they're born a little early. Some aren't actually health concerns but dan feng overreacting

Dan feng: they squeeze their eyes shut when i feed them a lemon! That's not supposed to happen!!

Yingxing: ...why are you giving them lemons??

Dan feng: for their vitamin c deficiency?? Why else would they be so pale???

Yingxing: ...they were born two days ago. Of course they're pale, just take them outside twice.

Dan feng: but they'll die from the light exposure and also whatever the xianzhou put into their air to keep it clean!!!

Yingxing: ...love.

-I need the cut higher bc tumblr is a slut again-

-this means in modern times, xingyue child has a long list with things that aren't actually an issue anymore. Still in dan fengs handwriting.

Bailu: oh you're allergic to lemons?

Xingyue child: not really, no

Bailu: okay... but, you easily get sunburned?

Xingyue child: no, not that either.

Bailu: so... do you have breathing problems?

Xingyue child: yes actually i do have those.

-xingyue child not forgetting prior lives (which will eventually become an issue.) (There are also vidyadhara that forget MORE often, so there should be some that forget LESS often, right?) Meaning they spend 100 years at most in the egg as their body regenerates. They remember everything down to 'melting' in the egg.

Xingyue child: do you know what melting feels like?

Dan heng: no...? ...Do you?

Xingyue child: yeah. It's pretty fucked up and very painful, pray you never remember.

Dan heng: ??????

-it's getting a little dark past this point-

-xingyue child having been forced into a war/conflict (the idea is that there was a non-canon small scuffle between the zhuming and another party. No longer than one or two weeks.) In this life which gave them ptsd as a child (child soldier??) They were supposed to learn, lets just say craftsmanship as a broader term. Ardens regia was the one to throw them into said conflict.

-ardens regia also being the one to tell one or more of their kid/s to watch over xingyue child. But xingyue child still almost dies on multiple occasions.

-xingyue child returning from battle with multiple wounds, fractures and the like. They're getting heavy painkillers and none of the bones properly get fixed. They end up smoking something for the pains, can't feel anything.

-they also have glass jars with their bones, from their ribs, their arms and their teeth. Takes them out as a "party highlight" (they don't like or have parties) literally threw the glasses into yanqings lap when he visited them once. It was a traumatic experience for yanqing, then for jing yuan who yanqing told it to, then for renheng and bailu, who heard it from the general.

Xingyue child: wanna see my bones?

Yanqing: ...your what?

Xingyue child, throwing a glass jar into his lap: MA BOOONES, those are rib bones, oh, these are from my left hand, these are from my right- oh look, the field doctor even gave me the small piece of my lung back!

-they're dead afraid of jingliu (a post i made a while back) and will not be normal about it, even if jingliu doesn't remember OR didn't mean it

Jingliu: *trying to grab them as they try to walk away from the seat of divine foresight* aren't you-

Xingyue child, jumping back, hiding behind jing yuan: DO NOT! TOUCH! THE BLACKSMITH!! DON'T TOUCH! DON'T FIGHT! DON'T BOTHER!

Jing yuan:

Jingliu:

-the artisanship commission being very loyal to their blacksmiths. You fight one of them? Now the order of you and anyone who has any kind of contact to you will be delayed, indefinitely.

Master blacksmith (that one guy, i think): oh they fought and hurt xingyue child, one of our blacksmiths? That's it guys! Put down everything connected to the cloud knights!

-the blacksmiths can and will close down the forges. And the senior cloud knights know better than to pick a fight with a blacksmith.

-xingyue childs muscles being anything but torn and they're basically doing everything with bone strength alone. They don't realise bc too many painkillers. They. Dont. Feel. A. Thing.

-also meaning the first time they're off painkillers after anyone decided to fix their bones, they can't work. For months. They insist. Doctor says try it, be my guest. They try to pick up blades sword- their thumb hurts in this position, but its fine - try to lift it and their arm feels like. Searing pain. Nothing ripped (luckily) but yeah. Not gonna work for a while.
