every scum villain au where bingbing is a real boy is even funnier than canon by virtue of the fact that 1. the man exists in real life and not just airplane-bro's drafts and 2. shen yuan white knighting for Guy From Fuzhou is infinitely funnier than him doing the same for Internet Novel Protagonist

"It is just like as you always said, 'I'm sorry' is nothing but an empty phrase...I must let you hear, not to ask for your forgiveness or sympathy, but because if I don't say it now...it will be too late." Shen Qingqui's heart felt bitter, his eyes hot. It was already too late. Shen Jiu was no longer here.

scum villain characters in order of how likely they are to go to therapy

any other character not specifically named on this list: eg, liu mingyan doesnt really need therapy.

shang qinghua. he was already going to therapy in beijing hes fine with it. he likes it.

liu qingge. he got referred to a therapist by mu qingfang and that helped him come out. he stopped when it was getting good.

luo binghe (bingmei): if shizun so much as sighs wrong binghe is signing them up for couples counseling with sqh.

luo binghe (bingge): torture is like therapy if you suck

yue qingyuan: therapy is like torture if you suck

mobei jun: theyre putting being a kuudere in the dsm-vi

shen yuan: he would rather fucking kill himself than discuss his feelings with a stranger. mu-shidi what are you doing. what i just said was not actionable.

shen jiu: torture is like therapy if you REALLY suck.

say what you will about shen jiu but that man was dedicated. he didnt even enjoy abusing bingbing he was just on that child abuse grind. as opposed to the lazy and spoiled fu er dai shen yuan,

what some people need to realize is that scum villain is the best fandom for effective autism headcanon speedrun strats. first off is shen yuan. now that we've established hes autistic we move to shang qinghua, who is also autistic. and since hes autistic, we can effectively argue that he wrote every character in PIDW as autistic because he was projecting!! with that, the only characters left to headcanon as autistic are shen yuans unnamed siblings. this is the greatest percentage and speed of autism headcanons out of all three mxtx novels

i think its fun to make shen jiu be the only one aware that he exists in a fictional universe and so thats why hes a villain. for one thing the parallels with shen yuan--a fictional man who knows hes fictional and doesnt care about the fictional lives of anyone around him, versus a real man who does care. and for another thing i think that that kind of realization inherently leads to being cast as a villain, because if you deride your world as being fictional, your world will deride you back. i like the idea of shen jiu's villainy existing not just in the text that shen yuan reads, but also in a meta sense in shen jiu's world. because he knows that the world is not real, the world has to erase him in order to maintain its 'realness'--the villain always dies in the story. and thats why shen yuan 'succeeds' as shen qingqiu, because he believes in the world and the people in it. whereas shen jiu failed because he wasnt playing the part of shen qingqiu, who is a wise and noble master--shen jiu was playing a part that had been deleted from the script, and he was aware that the rest of the script could be just as easily erased, and so the script had to act first.

i love chubby shen jiu as a sign that hes healed from his shitty childhood the problem is he 110% has not. he is abusing his inner child worse than he is abusing binghe. but even so: drawing chubby shen jiu is the only way to get into heaven.

[virginsqq]

every character should get fatter to signify that their life no longer sucks

[virginsqq]

shen jiu has never done anything silently. he will not suffer silently he will not HAUNT silently he is loud and he will ensure that you are aware if he is in any way displeased. he looooooves violence and expressing his anger. NO OTHER EMOTIONS..

[virginsqq]

Sorry! 😭

i think part of why shen jiu hates yue qi so much is because sj thinks yq would rather sj had died as an innocent and abused child slave, specifically so that yq could have the perfect cultivator backstory. like we know that yq doesnt believe that, and we know that yq doesnt want to have a special backstory, but i think that its fun for shen jiu [as a consummate actor] to think that everyone else is also obsessed with how other people see them.

shen qingqiu: shidi, what's your zodiac?

liu qingge: metal tiger, why?

sqq: figures.

lqg: WHATS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

sqq: nothing!

sqq: just figures, is all.

sqq: and your western zodiac?

lqg: ....aries, why?

sqq: figures.

[virginsqq]

liu qingge is only an idiot because hes classist but hes a solid c/b student

[virginsqq]

i dont think liu qingge is even particularly stupid unfortunately i think that its just every time we see him hes either 1. doing his best against a transmigrator or 2. getting riled up by somebody and being too mad to think straight

these two posts are in a very loving relationship
