Sketch dump of an au that’s taken over my mind ٩( 'ω' )و

SY and LQG as dragons and Binghe as the very overwhelmed by how small he suddenly is third person in their weird relationship

This is very self indulgent and pushes my Bingliushen monsterfuckers, size difference, and bottom Binghe agenda 🎉

[absolmon]

So I was inspired by @sinn-bee and their dragon AU to recreate their Shen Yuan and Liu Qingge's dragon forms. I'm totally in love with this AU and I thought it would be fun to compare how I designed based on their art vs what I did for the canon character's in SVSSS.

On the left is the design I did off their design and the right is based on the canon one. I went with a Veilspun for Sinn's design because the horn shape is probably the most similar to the one's on SY, plus the hair on them is such a big aspect of them. It's a little funny that I made him a Veilspun because in Flight Rising canon Veilspun are the smallest dragon's, about the size of a cat, whilst Sinn!SY is a big boy. I made a point to make him Mint because SY's color change is the biggest indicator in their AU that Shen Jiu was replaced. I thought filigree would be a good touch to reference the bracers that are a focal point on SY's clothing.

Canon SY I focused mostly on elegance and a wind theme, so I went with a Skydancer. The outfit was the most complicated thing, mostly because there aren't any specifically Chinese hanfu in the game. I had to do a lot of layering.

Once again, Sinn's design is on the left and the one based on canon is on the right. Liu Qingge was easy to decide on a breed because of his antler shaped horns! I had to go with an Imperial, which are based on both Asian mythology and the largest breed in the game with my largest one the length of an eleven story building. I wanted to focus on making Sinn!LQG as delicate and beautiful looking as possible. I thought the silver Opal really gave him a cool natural look. I think he and Sinn!SY would look beautiful together.

My canon version was focused mostly on his meat head fighter side, but I couldn't resist giving him a cute skin designed by FR user larkhund. I love the gap moe of it. I'm not completely happy with the outfit, but I think it works.

I hope you like it Sinn, I'm so excited to see more of your art. Keep it up!

Prologue (?) for my Dragon!SY AU ❤️

+silly bonus doodle

Thank you so much for all the love and support for this AU 🥹❤️ It’s rotting my brain at all times and I have so many thoughts and ideas for and about it 🥰

[sinn-bee]

Sometimes a dragon’s horns can be /very/ sensitive. SY doesnt know this is just so curious about his little Shidi 🥺

More of the Dragon!SY and Dragon!Lqg au, Lqg probably had to deal with SY unknowingly teasing him like this for Ages before Binghe shows up and fixes this whole Situation when he makes himself a part of it

(Also I’ve opened asks if people want to yell about this au or ask about it or also if you wanna just say hi 🥰)

[sinn-bee]

Drew a Dragon Lqg today in a magma sesh

[sinn-bee]

I bring an offering of more ScumDragonAU 🥰

The Draconic Peak Lord of An Ding, Shang Qinghua!

(Under the read more for dragon….anatomy)

He’s not the largest of the peak lords, but his full dragon form is quite large. He uses it to haul carts and crates to save money on shipping, because if he’s got a big ol dragon form why not be cost effective? The other peak lords keep their apparent to themselves, if their fellow peak lord is going to use the peak form of divine draconic cultivation to haul their supplies they can’t really complain about to money saved

Also Mobei-Jun gets to be the small one, nothing about their dynamic changed though funnily enough. (He thinks Sqh’s refusal to fight back is because the dragon sees him as weak and that makes him flustered)

[sinn-bee]

so I can't stop thinking about your dragon au. How did Liu Qingge and Shen Qingqiu meet? Are they Liushen before they're Bingliushen or just pining messes?

An excuse to talk about Liushen?? Y e s okay so!

The timeline is a little different in this au, meaning that Binghe is going to become a disciple at the sect but not until later (which means he never had to experience SJ), but they meet in the typical Lingxi caves type of situation. Except having a Qi Deviation is Much more dangerous when you are capable of turning into a fuck off sized dragon in a cave system that is not necessarily meant for full size dragons. Lqg treats SY with a lot of caution for a while because he recognizes that this person is (or at least was) SJ!Sqq, but knows that something is very different given that SY!Sqq has different coloration and an entirely different demeanor. He acts on this caution by being around SY a lot to observe him and tries to fight him a few times like he would with SJ but SY always declines.

Eventually they warm up to each other (SY always treated him as SY typically treats Lqg, teasing and whatnot) and as soon as SY realizes Lqg is being more friendly with him he is ecstatic and is even more teasing and friendly and invites Lqg into his hoard and home to hang out and eat together.

Which of course means that SY unknowingly initiates and engages in dragon courting!! And very intimate dragon behaviors that leave Lqg so so confused and scared and happy all at the same time. The little bit of angst in there is that Lqg thinks that this half-baked relationship means nothing to Sqq because of how he doesn’t quite reciprocate things correctly and that he’s just one in Sqq’s long string of lovers and meanwhile SY!Sqq is just like :D wow! How dragons interact with their friends is so interesting (They’re pretty much moved in with each other and almost having gay sex and scent marking each other) (Lqg has given up most of his hoard to Sqq)

So essentially yeah, they’re both happy (one of them reluctantly so) and have their weird not quite a relationship going on for a while and it doesn’t progress past that until plot happens and Binghe returns as an adult to court his Shizun and Sqq is bonked over the head with O h there’s two people trying to date me o.o

I’m a sucker for pining so there’s plenty of it in this au 👍

[sinn-bee]

Hii hello i have a slaying question! So if the qiong ding mountain sect is like dragons, what about the demons? I would also would love to see dragon LMY with SHL like i think that would be neat and cute ya know?:D

The demons are pretty much the same? There’s me inserting my indulgence and making demons have more fun demonic features of course.

Binghe’s blood is still sealed while he’s a disciple and demons can’t follow the path of draconic cultivation at all, so he spends his time as a disciple with a caring Shizun secretly thinking he’s a big failure because he hasn’t cultivated any drsconic features the entire time he was there. (Post abyss he grows demon horns but he files them down because they’re “ugly” and not the beautiful draconic horns he wanted so bad as a child)

OH DONT WORRY I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT SHL AND LMY ALREADY

Shl coming to attack the sects and taunting a younger Lmy who hasn’t cultivated many draconic features yet and calling her a puny pathetic human and all that and then coming back later on and Lmy has come into her draconic features and cultivation and now towers over her

I already had this sketched, Shl deserves to be kabedon-ed by a big dragon lady I think 🥰

[sinn-bee]

Hi I'm very fascinated by your dragon svsss au and I got a question if you're still open for them! It's regard SY!SQQ, bc in the first pic that you uploaded of the au he's noticeably more clothed than LQG and in the last comic you made the joke that he's wondering where his clothes are. Now to my question: is this different to how Shen Jiu used to dress because Shen Yuan had some modesty concerns from his former life or did he always cover up more? Or is Liu Qingge just unusually exposed in comparison to the other dragon Peak Lords? Anyway I hope you have a good day!

First of all sorry it took so long to answer your ask oTL (Got busy and distracted)

To answer your first question, SY!Sqq wears the same kind of clothing that SJ!Sqq did, he does feel kinda weird about being so exposed for a while but gets to learn Very Quickly that most everyone dresses like this. So yeah he has modesty concerns but learns to hide his embarrassment very quick because if everyone else is doing it, it isn’t as weird!

Lqg is more exposed than the other peak lords 😂 I’ll get back to that in a second.

SO. Some worldbuilding lore~

“Dragon fashion is designed to transition easily between forms and allow a tail to move freely, and dragons don’t care much about nudity or exposure-

Clothes expand at the waist and are slit at the sides to accommodate a larger, more serpentine form, and come off quickly and easily if you want to get really big.”

-excerpt taken from a dragon au fic my friend Corrin (/ partner in crime for making this au) wrote (it’s not posted yet, it’s Moshang, and it’s part of a zine coming soon)

Draconic peak lords, having ascended to full dragon hood, can shift between forms easily and so as mentioned above prefer to have less clothing that is easier to move around in. Normal draconic cultivators mimic those styles to some degree despite not being capable of shifting forms fully.

So less clothing = Shifts into other draconic forms more often. Lqg likes to hunt and travel and be in a draconic form a lot so he…doesn’t care much for clothing.

Yqy you’ll notice is very clothed and that’s because he just doesn’t ever shift to other draconic forms for sad reasons, and also to cover up as much of his scales as possible.

The other fun clothing headcannons (is it headcannons for an au??) I have are that the style and complexity of clothing also depends on the ranking of the peak and draconic hierarchy. Like Sqq has more jewelry and gems and Sqh has much simpler clothing and no gems. Lqg has gems because they’re a gift from Sqq.

The other reason for being so scantily clad is that draconic cultivation takes a Lot of time and effort, some more so than others, so people who have beaten their way to the top and ascended to dragonhood like to show off their scales and draconic features. Ahem Sj cough cough

Thank you so much for your curiosity! I like being able to infodump about my au especially since posting the comic and art for it takes a while 😅

[sinn-bee]

Hey! I’m absolutely in love with your dragon au, your art is amazing! Super excited for more!

I’m curious, because of how SQQ changes when going from SJ to SY, will everyone be totally aware that’s he’s a completely different person or is there gonna be a way he ‘gets away with it’? Like the Qi deviation excuse

Thank you so much!!! 🥹❤️

So! 👏 to answer your question-

Sj!Sqq had been going through a Qi deviation prior to SY transmigrating, and Qi deviations for the peak lords especially as full draconic cultivators are Very Very bad. It can completely mess up their connection to their dragon form and cultivation as a whole and as we know, SJ died from it which is why SY was able to take over. SY had to experience the last bits of Qi deviation as his soul being crammed into a new body forced Sqq’s core to change and thus in turn made his scales change color to match the new soul.

Of course, no one else knows this has happened, dragons scales turning a different color happens extremely rarely and only under very bad circumstances. So others do assume that his Qi deviation just changed his personality for the better. Some notice that his energy and personally is completely different and challenge him on it but realize it’s not worth the effort with how powerful Sqq still is (much to SY’s relief as he doesn’t fully understand how to change into a big scary dragon form yet and just intimidates via keeping a cool head.) There’s no system in this au so SY doesn’t have any Ooc lock, so his shift in personality is much more apparent even if he’s approaching everything cautiously.

So yes? He does get away with it? Everyone is aware he’s different but they can’t prove he’s *not* Sqq so they coddle their fellow peak lord who’s lost all his memories and hope the pleasant personality sticks.

Good news for any ScumDragonAU fans out there, I’m drafting up the next part of the comic and it is looking like it’s gonna be 16 pages long with not only a Yqy introduction but also Mqf and and special Lqg surprise :3c

If I get the draft done today I might post some pictures of the wips for funsies

[sinn-bee]

Realized I forgot to put my wip for MxtxMonsterfuckerWeek here and then remembered it has to be a little censored

Unsurprisingly it’s DragonAU Liushen +Binghe >:3c

//size difference, Bingpussy

[sinn-bee]

I’m loving your Dragon AU! Do you have any ideas for Yue Qingyuan in this AU? Also how did Liu Qingge react to seeing Luo Binghe the first time?

Aaah!! Thanks! I’m having so much fun with it 🥰 and I’m so happy other people are enjoying it!!

I do! When I have time he’s probably gonna be the next one I do some sketches of, I want him to have big ram-like horns and like dull gold and brown colored scales. There’s some of the typical QiJiu angst there to if you’re meaning ideas like Story wise? SY transmigrating changed what Sqq’s body looked like, when it was SJ it looked less minty and more bamboo leaf and his horns were more angled and sharp. So Yqy instantly Knew something drastic had happened when he saw Sqq after the transmigration.

And for Bingliu first meeting, Binghe showed up and met Sqq when Lqg wasn’t there (a rare occurrence considering he’s pretty much moved in by donating most of his hoard to Sqq) so when Lqg gets back and Knows someone had visited he’s tense about it and gets super protective. When they actually meet for the first time Lqg gets all posturing and stands tall but behaves himself because he is Sqq’s guest. (They will go fight later because Binghe Will taunt him enough and Lqg Will fall for the bait) But they’ll figure out how to get along and more once they realize that Sqq is interested in both of them and they can team up shfjg

That was a little ramble-y _(:3」z)_ I hope it made some sense??

[sinn-bee]

Hi im really sorry if youve already said this but i was wondering if you were okay with people doing fanart of your svsss!dragon au? If not thats fine but i was just wondering, thank you. :))

:,0!!! I AM MORE THAN OKAY WITH THAT!!!!

I’d be honored in fact 😭 If you do make some you Have to make sure I see it so I can properly scream about it and love it so much ❤️

[sinn-bee]

I have a question about your SVSSS!Dragon Au. What did Shen Jiu’s dragon form look like?

Also I absolutely love your Au!! Keep up the good work 😊😊😊

Hello!! I do have an answer for that 🥰

Shen Jiu’s scales had a lot more of a yellow green color, more like bamboo versus the minty color that Shen Yuan has. His horns also were a bit pointier and had small spikes as the curving parts.

Coincidentally enough you’ll be able to see a snippet of what he looked like in the small comic thing I’m putting together for funsies. It’s gonna be 9 pages of SY transmigrating into SJ’s body and it changing, so you get to see some of what SJ looks like!

[sinn-bee]

liu shidi's horns are so pretty and delicate looking 🤩

They areee I liked leaning into the gap moe of him being a super fighty and strong character and giving him such pretty dragon horns (which are based on deer antlers and fit with the fighty aspect anyways, win win) 🤭
