"Shen Jiu looks like/is an incarnation of Shen Yuan's older brother" But have you considered his da-ge could be Mobei Jun. have you considered this little sassy nerd boy only got this far bc of his 6'5" jacked up frigid bastard of an older brother who was loyal to a fault. have you considered SQH once saw this man across the room and never stopped thinking about him, leading to PIDW existing. Have you-

Yesterday for the first time I saw a post in a public forum that actually points out Marika has every reason to be so cold & distant towards Maliketh... thanks God.
The Two Fingers/ EIden Beast stood aside & let her entire family die, then when it successfully entrapped her in a literal divine prison it said “here we gave you a brother lol” like istg WHAT are you even saying. Her entire real family is already in a ditch !!! No prayers to the Gods help them! And now these Godlike beings are like take this random guy as your bro???
It’s confirmed in the base game Shadowbeast is like sleeper agent that the Two Fingers put there to monitor their Empyrean & off them if they try to rebel, no matter how earnest the Shadowbeast sounds. Ranni and Blaid literally grew up together & we still have to get rid of him at the end of her questline 💀 Marika was a young woman who had lost everything then forced to recognize some stranger as family. To her that must be some fucked up joke.
And get this, I do believe Maliketh and Blaidd care for Marika & Ranni genuinely, it’s a tragedy that they were born to bring “nothing but bale” to the person they love. Just like how Messmer, the beloved son in the Shadow, also became a curse to the person he loves the most in the end. That’s the doomed narrative they are trying to portray.

Do you guys ever have an au that you can't put into a summary because it makes no sense if you don't read it completely?
Like how am I supposed to explain the acid trip of an au I have swirling in my mind rn? It has so many parts to it.
Like the Shen siblings are transmigrated into the story but like the system messed up and they were thrown into different parts of the history. And they're trying to find each other within the confines of the system's rules.
Obviously jiuyuan is there, but like Shen Yuan is a cryptid because he's dealing with a penalty from the system but also he was just a creature beforehand but like sealed away. Bro's a changeling like that explanation makes no sense. And like Shen Yuan fakes his death by accident but also he did kill Wu Yanzi, which is always good.
LiuShang is there because I always want liushang to be there.
Mobei Jun gets with Shen Yuan's da-ge. Am I explaining that? ... No that whole storyline is too complicated. But hey, two silent, intimidating men that are gay for each other.
Also Shen Yuan's er-ge gets with Yue Qingyuan? I don't know how to explain that one either. Like what's more romantic than a battlefield? 😗 Probably anything else.
BingFan is also there because I also always want BingFan there. But they do fall into the abyss together. Forced proximity via being stuck in hell. Semi rivals to power couple
I mean Shen Yuan's meimei has a romance with Ning Yingying, and it's literally the most normal ship. They're childhood friend to lovers.
And that's not even to mention that the system is somewhat malicious in this AU.
Family dinners would be strange. Yeah we have here a fire demon that is married to the ice monarch, a disgraced cultivator that is married to this generation's greatest warrior, just deadass a cryptid who is married to the greatest battle strategist and scholar in this generation, and just a normal cultivator with a normal girlfriend.
The Shens would look you dead in the eye and say "Yeah this is my brother" and point to a literal creature of legend.
This AU is so batshit crazy but makes perfect sense in my brain like it's crazy
