Two months after Shen Jiu joins the sect he's finally forced to go get a full medical exam. It's remarkably tolerable- but they keep asking if he has any siblings and don't seem to be taking 'no' for an answer. Finally he's like "if I do I've never met them!" And fuck if the healers don't bring in an older boy with Shen Jiu's exact same face.

Chen Xuan is an inner disciple specializing in spiritual veins. He's from a middle class merchant family, but admits he doesn't look much like either of his parents.

Eventually they take a magical DNA test and yep, they are brothers.

Both of them are like, "this doesn't really change anything, I don't know you."

But they meet for tea frequently, and eventually after they become genuine friends Chen Xuan coaxes Shen Jiu to let him work on his spiritual veins. (Shen Jiu might start going to hide in his brother's room when he can't sleep but they never talk about that.)

Life goes on and not much is different until one year disciple selection gets Real Weird. Shen Qingqiu is just trying to snipe a promising kid from Liu Qingge - but then Ming Fan is like, "Shizun that other little boy bit me when I tried to separate them"

That other little boy, is of course Shen Yuan, who has his same face again. SQQ hadn't noticed him at first, he kept his head down. He's mentally cursing his slut-dad when Yue Qingyuan steps in and scoops up both boys despite his protests. (He noticed the mini Shen immediately)

Chen Xuan tells him later they do indeed have a new didi, just one thank the gods. If SQQ was related to both those little brats he'd kill someone.

He doesn't see either boy often but Shen Yuan has it out for him for some reason. He'll feel eyes on him and turn and there's that little street rat, glaring at him.

Again life goes on, once the boy's a little more settled he's invited to the brotherly tea meet ups. He and Shen Qingqiu reluctantly become fond of each other. (Chen Xuan's plan worked perfectly.)

Until Shen Yuan comes back from his first night hunt and crashes tea with a little baby girl. (Also Binghe comes too.)

SQQ rightfully asks why SY stole a baby and SY informs then that 1) the demon they killed had her in a sack so she was free not stolen and 2) "It's Meimei."

The two older men have sudden violent flashbacks to their past lives as Shen Yuan's Da-ge and Er-ge. Shen Yuan, of course has always remembered. After they recover from the shock they do another magical DNA test. The baby is definitely Meimei.

the difference between zhao yunlan and luo wenzhou bringing their boyfriend along to solve crimes is sooo funny

zhao yunlan: this is shen wei. why is he here? bc he is my wife. next question

luo wenzhou: somehow this brat has tricked his way into the police station & I'm not allowed to throw him out. don't let him touch anything

Finished the game and I think Mr Reaper just needs a hug

Drew this a while back and I thought it was cute <3

[migratory-potato]

every time

had this idea that at some point Tharkay might have taught Laurence alternatives to fighting with a rapier (or any sword type weapon, really) and ended up on staff fighting and - because it’s them, c’mon guys - had to make it homoerotic

i don’t even know where this would fit in canon, maybe it’s a missing scene, maybe post canon, but does it really matter? their travels are long and the clothes are slutty and that’s all i care about

guess he got CARRIED AWAY

*Royalty au - headcanon When Miles first arrived at Castle von Karma, Franziska treated him like her most precious doll: she wanted to dress him up in the clothes she liked, put bows and chains on him. Miles was embarrassed to refuse her and agreed to try something on, especially as Franziska's position in the house was much higher than his - a adopted child. And so it went on for a while, until old Manfred forbade it.

A WWDITS inspired AU where the prosecutors family are vampires and Phoenix is their neighbour who is literally just some guy

imagine an au where shen yuan transmigrates into a blank slate npc with very little system involvement, traveling around for a while until he's found by yue qingyuan and taken back to the sect because apparently shen qingqiu went missing around his transmigration period and shen yuan looks exactly like him, so it must be him, but then a few weeks later when he's just settled in on the peak and accepted his fate the real shen qingqiu shows up who was just on vacation and everyone forgot.

now there are two shen qingqiu's, one of whom is the real one and the other an amnesiac they gaslighted into believing he is shen qingqiu.

anyway—shen qingqiu has a new didi now!

svsss body swap au where shen qingqiu and liu qingge swap bodies, and while shen qingqiu (either yuan or jiu could work!) is having the time of his life with the full power of the bai zhan war god, liu qingge is having a very rude awakening on how much chronic illnesses suck and how much pain and discomfort sqq is in every single day.

liu qingge finds out how awful without-a-cure is, it's blocking his cultivation and leaving him helpless, and it hurts, too, a constant ache that lingers in the back of his mind. it takes mu qingfang calling him out on his behavior to realize that he's been lashing out at others out of his own discomfort and frustration. the only relief he gets is the cleansing of his meridians, but to take all those brews every day and be dependant on his martial siblings for his base health is really frustrating, because he can't do so many things he used to be able to do without second thought.

meanwhile, shen qingqiu arm-wrestled every peak lord and won, cleaved a mountain in half, ran a marathon for fun, and approached every dangerous animal he could find to study them because his strength and reflexes get him out of tricky situations every time.

shen qingqiu: i just ran eighty miles and im not even sweating !!

liu qingge: i tried to circulate my qi and now i have a horrible migraine

eventually they switch back; liu qingge is very relieved, glad to be himself again. shen qingqiu is keeping up a brave face, but the constant discomfort feels a little worse now he knows what it's like to live without it.

Silly SVSSS AU idea of Meng Mo realizing somethings weird with SQQ dreams because LBH keeps having breakdowns and Meng Mo knows SQQ is one thing that will calm him done and shut him up! He cannot take another round of whining/pining and also the stupid plans he just wants this fixed. So he starts staying around SQQ dreams... only there's something up.

And Meng Mo ends up finding system...

Just Meng Mo and system staring at each other across SQQ mindscape like that one always sunny scene.

Bonus

LBH: Old man your back where have been?

Meng Mo: Your Shizun's haunted

LBH:...What?

Meng Mo: Your Shizun's haunted.
