NOT ME TREMBLING WITH THE HIGH OF WRITING ABOUT SHEN JIU'S SELF-HATRED

https://archiveofourown.org/works/61007446

Title: Entangled Affairs

Rating: Teen and Up

Relationship: Liu Qingge/Shen Jiu

Other Characters: Yue Qingyuan; Previous Generation Cang Qiong Mountain Sect Peak Lords

Tags: AU Canon Divergence; Disciple SJ and Disciple LQG; Enemies to Friends (almost); Misunderstandings; Self-Hatred; Bickering; Airplane's Cheap Plot Devices; Talking; POV Alternating; Unreliable Narrator

Sinopse: Some time after the disaster that was The Well Mission(TM), Shen Qingqiu and Liu Qingge are forced by their Peak Lords to go on another mission together on the premisse that they need to learn how to work together despite their hatred for each other. Of course, the only way for them to truly talk things out is by getting stuck in a cheap Airplane Shooting Toward the Sky's plot device.

#love him #he's the poorest wettest littlest meow meow to ever exist #i want to break him and pick up his pieces and glue it all together and break him again #also I'm going to have to change those tags #this is maybe getting a little too dark

Razzle Dazzle... Glitz and Glam... turn it on- IT'S A SPECTACLE ✨️‼️‼️

--

I really, really like how this turned out!! I like how glowy and moody it is. I might doodle some more when I can find the time hehe. But I LOVE HER!! She/he is mother.

I don't know how to explain it but one of Stan's odd jobs in the 80s would be a drag queen, it just fits y'all. He is strutting that stage to put bread on the table, breadwinner but in heels.

I also want to highly recommend two drag queen Stan fics that are eating at me and lowkey inspired me making this.

Links to one:

And, a two:

Second one has a lot heavier themes than the first one. But they're both SO SO GOOD!! Please check em out

#“Maybe That's Enough” by candied_bees also has trans and intersex Stan which delights me(bi too but it not as super prevalent)#i will say check the warnings and tags on this fic first tho before jumping it #gets a little dark #and “Life Is A Drag” is just a really good time fic #gravity falls #gravity falls fanart #gravity falls stanley #stan pines #gravity falls stan pines #stan pines fanart #fic rec #gf #gf fanart #drag queen stan #my art #cryptic underground #cryptic art

uhh another modern au agott follow-up. They've gotten progressively sillier

#witch hat tag #orufrey #hopefully you remember where she's at. the original one about her turmoils with art was so sincere....#but this is sincere too. being a 12 year old autistic lesbian is one of the most stupid things to experience. Like what is happening.#Yeah OK maybe i'm a wee lesbo. but i'm focusing on my CAREER rn so idc about that. SO i'm very upset that other ppl are not FOCUSING!!!!#A-AND FYI MY TEACHER HE CARRIES AROUND A GIRLY LIL PURSE!!! SO THERE!!!! Why are they walking away #agott helps me have to decide how to draw expressions i have never drawn before.#i actually realised looking at the concept art book stuff more carefully that coco is canonically 14? Ok....#it's a little too cruel if theyre dealing with periods on top of saving witch society from its foibles..but ok.. i do feel that riche is 12 #also coco's hair is going to turn dark green when she's an adult or something. it's 'blonder' now due to being a kid🤔#abba is bc after a big long modern au orufrey comic where they got together i just strongly felt that they slowdanced to abba that day #feeling the mirth and hope of life and 'young and sweet only 17' why didnt we get together sooner but its ok like this & i love you dearly.#teen qif secretly listening to abba heartache songs after olly's caretaker drives him away..in that faded neopets hoodie.#it became 'their music' their silly little music.. right up there with the faerie bubbles theme.. (<- frustrating neopets minigame.)

now that im writing this it's occuring that i don't think this was ever actually mentioned or implied in game but the idea of the service weapon following the director around has been in my head rent free for a few days

#not quite literally following just kind of subtle-like. like shut it in a desk drawer lock your office for the evening and by the time youre #out of the building it's back in your pocket #get startled awake in the middle of the night and sit up sharply to find it already in your hand #even though the last place you left it was across the room #obviously you cant give it to someone else to hold so that just makes it easier #the shapeshifting would help too. maybe it's just a pocket knife for a little while maybe a butcher knife at home #hmm.. multitool service weapon...#be a real pain in airport security but the director probably has private transport either way #ANYONE ELSE THINKING ABOUT THIS. SPEAK TO ME. IT'S SO DARK IN HERE #control #control remedy #control game #original

Callum has asked Rayla twice now to kill him if he's ever corrupted again. This time as like a barter. And this time, despite looking devastated, she finally (begrudgingly) agrees. And later this season, Callum is cleared of his dark magic corruption, but it also warned that if he does dark magic again it'll overwhelm him.

Man my dreams have already been haunted enough by death foreshadowing I can't take much more of it for these two.

#listen i know many many fans adore the angst of one or both of them dying. especially if its the other that caused the killing blow #i get that. i do #but i just wouldnt be able to take that kind of heartache.#if any of the main characters die by the end of the show - ESPECIALLY rayla callum or ez - i will lose my mind. especially if they do it to #each other. either intentionally or not. simply wouldnt be able to take it im too emotional and attached to them to be able to take that #i like angst. but not death angst. i cant take that. especially not for characters i adore so much #they better NOT have either of them kill each other by the end of the show i will not be able to handle it #this better just be some foreshadowing of it 'they said over and over that theyll do it for each other but in the end they love each other #too much to do it and love fixes it' or some sappy bullshit like that. anything but killing each other please i cant handle that #fuck. shits gonna haunt my dreams even more now than before #they wouldnt kill off their main characters that are the faces of their show right? ....right?? please??? i beg?????#please think if the children #me im the children #tdp #tdp s6 #tdp s6 spoilers #that scene where they argue about callum doing dark magic again was so very needed but still oof. and the way callum is so much more firm #this time and rayla looks so devastated but knows he means it even more now. god. end me. i just finished that episode on my rewatch btw #also like. can we talk about how she loudly slapped her hands together right in their faces to get her point across. damn id have jumped #back too. she uh. really wanted to get her point across huh. shes never done that before.#oh oof man this episode has no many emotions. giggles and funnies and sadness and sweetness and heartache and fear and worry #thats probably not even all of em #rayla #callum #rayllum #also they really choose random times to use that slightly different animation style huh. that makes their faces look more loose and the #expressions sit differently. looks a little more animated. and like. goofy but not in a bad way? i noticed it blatantly in s5 in at least #one scene (while in the market in 506) and maybe even other spots in s5. and some less obvious spots in s4 too. now here during their #argument and when callum asks rayla to promise again. its not bad its just starkly different and throws me off. wonder if like. a different #person animated those parts and they somehow did it differently. idk it hardcore sticks out to me every time now when i see it.

[tapping the table quietly] how do you tell if something you have planned is too intense?

#spazzcat barks #delete later #putting the Welsknight Meets Exor wound ask piece on hold #because its getting maybe a little too dark and i dont know how to dial it back #i can say with honesty this is a problem ive never had before #mostly because i dont write horror often #and also the nature of Exor in hels seems to be 'tortures people'#and its like. how much of that can i actually write before i start really REALLY squicking people out #its worth mentioning i actually really like the idea ive had for it #i think it would be cool to explore #but maybe it needs... tamed a little...

He gets a little ..Dark Mode every other event

#that's a gif *points*#when i say dark mode i mean... hmm... dommy? possessive? moody shadow serpent hours?#maybe... light mode means more Bullyable?#honestly he's kinda split on cocoa liqueur. nerdkumo gets a lil All Consumey Dark Impulses too. uhhhh #and i'm not even talking about his behaviour in the story i'm just thinking of his h scene actions #because i def can't call chimes of darkness yakumo Light Mode in general *flashbacks to loud cult noises in the catacombs*#ok so he's a little dark mode in every event because that's just yakumo BUT11!!!#i needed to ignore the grey zones FOR THE GIF #the on off light switch gif action doesn't work as well when a couple lamps are on sometimes 🫤#honestly this is all just an elaborate justification #for my hopeful prediction that the yakumo cycle is coming round to subby again #come on! lights on! i want him extra pathetic next time!!#he had his glorious high heeled mountain goth moment #i want him SCRUNCHED for his next event #nu carnival yakumo

couldnt decide on drawing fish or horsies

#the first one is bc I was totk infodumping and I was like yoo what if the other races lived in the depths at some point too #like. there are statues that depict each of the races but no evidence they actually lived down there #it would be so cool if we had stories of Zora that lived in the depths and changed from being in the dark for so long. like their scales #glowed and they grew long fins to feel and smell in the dark. we could have Zora based on deep sea creatures #the other one I wanted to do was depths rito but there are so few documented nocturnal birds. even less people associate with darkness #so it would have been mostly owls but maybe kiwi and nightjars. rito are so hard to draw #the other thing I was thinking was they evolved again and turned into bats. theyre pretty damn good at evolving so why not #but then my brain was like horsies. so I drew bat fluttershy #I want to give her a bat nose and membrane.. apparently the mane 6 turn her back but she grows a fang. but I also want her to have bat #wings under her feathers. like it looks like normal Pegasus wings from the outside but the inside is lined like a bats wing with membrane yk #femoral membrane and leaf nose also. maybe she gets quieter flying and better night vision plssss #discord also for fun but I wanna stylize him tmrw #my art #myart #doodles #mlp #my little pony #mlp fluttershy #mlp discord #loz #botw #totk #botw zora #eye contact #scopo

no youre completely right - im a gay (trans)man and i legit wanna see so much more about the women bc There Is So Little. I wanna make a lesbian oc who gets bent in half by taash. im very normal.

i’m just tired man!!!! it feels so obvious how disproportionate it is when you’ve got. a cast of characters that we know almost equally little about. and a few of them explode in popularity and it’s like spongebob sticking his hand out the curtain. literally all a character needs to do numbers is to be a light-skinned man

#like you bring up taash!! we know equally little abt taash and emmrich. why is one FUCKING EVERYWHERE and i’m like. scrounging for scraps #sometimes i feel like there has to be a secret other main dragon age tag that has the real stuff in it #but maybe it’s just the tumblr userbase idfk #i feel like i’ve seen a little bit more of neve since the trailer but still not anything on the level as everyone’s fave boys #and before you hit me with ‘lucanis was in a couple short stories’ harding was in the literal entire last game. and she and neve had comics #there’s obviously something to be said about character types too. a lot of people love dark and broody #vs harding keeps getting described as Girl Next Door and that’s much less popular. fine i’m not going to argue abt individual tastes #but like. neve isn’t popping off??? on the columbo fansite????#everyone’s talking about emmrich’s experiments and research but no one talks about bellara’s??#like personally. ok. lesbian opinion so take that for what it’s worth. but i don’t understand all the lucanis thirst #davrin i could understand. davrin can get it. he gets way fewer thirstposts than the other men (hmmm interesting im sure it’s nothing 🙃)#i’m just like. tired. i don’t want to say people can’t enjoy what they’re excited about #but it adds up!#i feel guilty complaining when i am also not doing a lot of Female Character Poasting but like #there’s only so much i can do as someone who can’t draw and has been too busy to keep on top of all the breaking news

Would you ever consider becoming a published author? I love your fanfics but seeing you recommend dark romance novels does make me wonder what a dark romance book from yeyinde would be like

published author kinda scares me ngl lmao but maybe. i enjoy writing fanfic, dgmw, but i have a lot of ideas i want to try that don't really fit into the fandoms i write for. the more i read and write and experiment, the more i want to take on and do. and there's only so many situations i can put these particular characters into, so. thinking about it.

and also, Vi Khi Nao, Shiloh Sloane, Tanya Tagaq, and Agustina Bazterrica have def had an impact on me when it comes to writing, so!! who knows. maybe i'll get around to writing something of my own eventually—if only so i can slide into their dms with my kindle unlimited author hallpass to chat them up and figure out how their brains work.

#a yeyinde dark romance book would probs be more horror erotica—like: fmc gets in over her head with the mafia #maybe goes to a party with her socialite friend and gets accused of theft and enforcer mmc has to rough her up a bit for the info #he'd be awful vile foul irredeemable #spitballing here tbh and making this up as i go but ummmmm #then he lets her go but maybe she liked the violence a little too much and seeks him out for more #gore torture mayhem misery #an hea that leaves you queasy #yeah #that sounds nice

"He’s frozen stiff, threatening claws now hovering down to the side—his eyes look huge in the darkness, that faint white glow giving just the slightest of his expression away.

He still doesn’t strike."

- all because of you (i do right) by puppyblue on ao3, Chapter 1. @puppyblueao3 here on tumblr i think!

(does this count as a fic rec or fanart. both, probably. rambles under the cut.)

SO uh—i'm really picky about fanfiction. like. really really picky.

i dunno why exactly, but i kinda have a hard time reading them right away bc a) i'm not really a shipper and that's most fanfiction i've seen and b) i like when i can really imagine the characters saying and doing whatever it is they're doing.

y'know the whole "he would not fucking say that" meme? lmao that's me, but with fanfics and only to myself. (i know everyone has their niche and i'm not here to police anybody's fun, just curate my own.)

anyway all that to say that i really, really liked this one. a lot. it's canon divergent off of into the spiderverse, and if you can believe it the comic is literally not a spoiler bc it's in the summary of the fic. but if you liked uncle aaron or even just are a sucker for redemption (? ish?) arcs, i think you'd like it! with all the angst and chaos from atsv it's a nice change of pace.

#into the spiderverse #itsv #into the spiderverse fanart #itsv fanart #aaron davis #miles morales #the prowler fanart #the prowler #um. what else do i tag this with #fanfic rec #maybe. i dunno #should i do this for more fics that i read?? i have a couple others but y'know #i'm a big nerd who just likes making things based off things that make me happy #we all need that sometimes i think #you would not BELIEVE the amount of time it took me to get to this layout for one page #like yeah i'm an amateur with comics and it could use work but. good god.#so many drafts... so many abandoned canvases...#i think part of it was bc i wanted to keep the little doodles so bad. like the hand with the mask?? i wanted to keep it #also the shadows are dark on the prowler on purpose bc that's how it's described but. might have made it brighter if i hadn't merged layers #just a bit. too late now though! *shrug*#i don’t have an ao3 account so there’s no real way for me to get this to the author #their tumblr seems inactive atm #but if they do happen to see it i hope they like it!#ney's art #ney's comics

been reading spellslinger in the past few days after having it on my shelf for ages. Really good book and all but what I’m stuck on character designs.

aka.

This is what the main character looks like, a blond dude actually. But everytime I try to visualise him I see

THIS BITCH WHO HAS NOT LEFT MY BRAIN YET.

#It started as a joke #i don’t think it’s a joke anymore #like the storyline’s aren’t even close besides being ambitious dumbasses #Who considered dark magic to ‘cure’ a problem #(It was really bref in kellen’s case)#And are sassy little nerds who has studied pretty much all of what they can get out of magic and how to perform it #Sneaky bitches too #Okay maybe there are some connections to make #Granted I’m only on book one #kellen argos #sebastian sallow #spellslinger #Hogwarts legacy
