shangqi’s back scars.   this is kind of how i picture shangqi’s scars. i think his are less prominent, they’re more white and settled in his skin / more healed. the amount is a mix between the two images, he has quite a few, but they aren’t all over / they’re more condensed in certain areas. these are from where the ten rings men whipped him with sticks as training when he was a child. he’s not insecure about them, per se, but he doesn’t like looking at them. they’re a reminder of what he went through. other people seeing them makes him slightly uncomfortable, depending on who it is and what their relationship is.

[   RINGSTHIEF   ]          —————          @ringstrained i don’t deserve you, or maybe you just hide your scars the same way i do

i’ve been the archer,   i’ve been the prey.   who could ever leave me,   darling?   but who could stay?       /       singing karaoke,   killing backstreet.   touching in the photo booth,   something you can hold onto.   babe,   just in case i’m the one that gets away.       /       said this ain’t what you usually do,   and a girl like me is new for you,   and i can tell you mean it ‘cause you’re shaking.       /       you’re taking up a fraction of my mind,   oh,   every time i watch you serpentine.       /       just tell me when you’re wrong,   so i’ll forgive you when you’re wrong.       /       boy,   you got me blinded.   oh,   pretty baby,   there’s nothing i wouldn’t do.   it’s not the way i planned it.       /       the skyline falls as i try to make sense of it all,   i thought i’d uncovered your secrets but,   turns out,   there’s more.   you adored me before,   oh,   my good looking boy.       /       i don’t like slow motion,   double vision in rose blush.   i don’t like that falling feels like flying ‘til the bone crush.       /       and if i’m unable,   tell him that i’ll try,   but underneath the table,   i will spin the wheel and hope for gold.       /       pulling me in softly at the coat check,   i’m seeing double.       /       and when the sky’s looking starless,   searching for light in the distance,   until i find that the darkness was only shade.       /       now here you go again,   you say you want your freedom.   well,   who am i to keep you down?       /       you’re the scars on my skin,   you’re the past i don’t want to erase.
