#spy and traitor would probably still fall on airplane with how much the system loves him I imagine

[levemetal]

I love fics that have the Shen twins as twin peaks lords of Qing Jing, but let's be real: If there is one peak which SHOULD have two whole peak lords, it should be An Ding, the literal peak of logistics and paperwork.

Just feels like it would make An Ding's workload more manageable.

AAHHH you're latest svsss au has me hooked! what's going on sqh's end? what're they saying in cang qiong? what happens when sqh and sy meet and how does sj react? this is a lot of questions, sorry, but it's just the flavor of sj angst and spite i love. btw, make sure to take care of yourself and have a lovely new year! <3<3<3

Thank you so much! I'm quietly quite fond of this au actually haha, I love the idea of SJ getting to try again - he doesn't give his loyalty away by halves. Never apologise for questions! I love them!

Cang Qiong is kinda. Fucked, but in that weird, deep, buried way that you notice as a faint tension thats going to explode one day and possibly bring the mountain down on them. But no one says anything. They just stew. Factions form.

what's going on sqh's end?

Shang Qinghua's system imploded when Shen Jiu was pushed into the abyss, citing a 'fatal plot deviation', proclaiming he'd be returned to his original world. And then he didn't go anywhere. He was a brief mental breakdown when he realises that, to some extent, this is his original world.

what're they saying in cang qiong?

Yue Qingyuan never forgives Liu Qingge, but also never calls him out on it. Liu Qingge is convinced he was in the right and that Shen Jiu was a traitorous coward. Shang Qinghua (a transmigrator) knows he wasn't. Qi Qingqi didn't like Shen Jiu anyway, but she also doesn't like Liu Qingge all that much, and rather trusts Yue Qingyuan. Mu Qingfan is of the opinion that Liu Qingge murdered one of their martial siblings and they are letting him get away with it. The rest of them either fall into line with MQF or LQG, or they try to pretend it never happened.

what happens when sqh and sy meet and how does sj react?

So, SQH is still spying for Mobei-jun because he's a simp and also if he didn't MBJ's uncle would probably just murder the guy, which, is pretty terrible. MBJ is allied with Tianlang-jun against said uncle, meaning its not super uncommon for poor SQH to have to face The Strongest Person in his whole book which takes years off his life every time.

The first time he ran into SJ he almost cried out of stress, then almost cried out of sadness when SJ clenched his hand so hard he broke his fan, turned on his heel and stalked out of the room. (They have talked it out to the extent SJ is capable of talking about his emotions without committing a murder, and they are almost friends at this point).

Then he shows up one day and SJ has??? A baby??? Ok the kid is probably like 8 or something, but thats a whole ass child. A mini Shen Jiu, fan and all. Also very conspicuously human. "Oh, fuck your mother." "... Airplane?" Shen Jiu watches in a 20/80 mix of confusion and parental pride as his new Not Son drags a grown peak lord out of the room by his ear as said peak lord pleads for his life.
