So a few years ago I had this idea where SY introduces DnD to QJP as "strategy training" and SQH ends up coming over every week or so to be the DM. (Ofc all of the scenarios are written by SQH) (under SY's supervision bc you can't trust that man) and SY helps with monster-related stuff and convincing YQY to let SQH spend more time outside of An Ding Peak (or smth idk)
Anyway 3 years later here's a short comic inspired by this idea
(MF plays the wizard, NYY the barbarian, and LBH the paladin)
Man i know it's a popular trope for a reason and it's maybe applicable in real life in some cases but the idea that there is a Secret True Evil Self lurking under someone's pattern of kindness and good deeds, and that if they act out ever this is the "mask" dropping to reveal their Secret True Evil Self, which is who they were All Along and everything else was Fake in order to Fool and Manipulate really sets my teeth on edge.
Is it a different logic than "if i put you in a situation designed to stress you out and that stress causes you to act badly or say something you ordinarily wouldn't, then you have proven that you are, have been, and always will be, a bad person"?
Disclaimer that this isn't about public figures lying about never having done anything wrong and anyway they've grown and changed and then it turns out they have been straight up lying the whole time about verifiable facts, did many things wrong, and there is no evidence of growth or change to be found. This is about the way people talk about both regular people and fictional characters.
Uncles and Nephews can perform especially powerful attacks together. Experiment with different uncles and nephews to discover their unique abilities.
this is what LMFAO did with party rock anthem
Shen Yuan introducing his own version of DnD to Qing Jing to get his disciples to think strategically as well as teach them what makes a good story/character. Ning Yingying is one of those annoying bard players that don’t try to figure anything out and just roll to seduce everything. Ming Fan spends hours trying to figure out the best way to minmax his build which Shen Yuan both hates and is impressed by. Binghe is a unicorn player who’s really good at not only following the direction the DM is pointing in, but also reigning in the other players. Only inner disciples that are doing really well in their classes get to play with Shizun but people are allowed to watch the sessions as they happen, which becomes a beloved peak wide pastime. Mostly because Shizun character acts for all his NPCs.
Occasionally other peak lords are allowed to join as guest players, however Yue Qingyuan and Liu Qingge suck ass and have been banned. Shang Qinghua abd Qi Qingqi are tye most common repeat guests.
it probably drives Shang qinghua slightly crazy that everyone is praising sqq for how ~creative~ and ~unique~ this game/storytelling tool he created is, while SQH sits there like “I know what you are motherfucker”
Happy Hanguang-June
"This is tea I made with my own hands. Why don't you want to drink it?" Jin Guangyao pushed the teacup away once more, explaining in a kind tone, "it's precisely because you made the tea with your own hands that I don't dare to drink it."
thanks @madtomedgar for the inspiration, you were so right about this

Rereading chapter 31 and I am reminded yet again of how delightful SVSSS is.
SQQ is gold.
Have you considered that maybe you guys are a little too clingy? Just a little. Just a tiny bit.
Roast them. They deserve all the roasting.
SQQ is gold.
Oh my god Binghe.
Anyone who has to spend more than 10 minutes with them deserves a vacation.
Liu-shidiiiiiiiiiii 🤣
Bingqiu greatest literary couple of all time.
[ID: A series of photographed excerpts from Scum Villain's Self-Saving System volume 4.
1.
“How far has your relationship progressed?”
“We’ve done all the things we should have, and some things we shouldn’t,” said Shen Qingqiu.
2.
“Where do your dates often take place?”
Shen Qingqiu rested his chin on his hand. “The moment I open my eyes, I see him. And when I close my eyes, he’s still the one I see in my dreams. Does that mean we’re on dates all the time?”
3.
“What things does your partner do that make you feel helpless?”
Shen Qingqiu shrugged and said weakly, “Whenever he starts to cry, there’s nothing I can do.”
“Whenever Shizun gets mad, I’m unable to do anything.”
Shang Qinghua hummed in acknowledgment, bouncing his leg. He wrote it down while roasting them in his heart: They really are exactly like a kindergartner and his teacher!
4.
Shang Qinghua shrugged. “My bad. How did you make up afterward?”
Shen Qingqiu waved his hand. “We boned to save the world!”
“What sort of agreements do you have about [beep—]ing?”
“If it hurts, he has to tell me,” said Luo Binghe. “He absolutely has to!”
“No crying allowed!” said Shen Qingqiu.
“Say, have you guys misunderstood the implication behind the word ‘agreement’?” asked Shang Qinghua.
5.
“If a good friend said to you, ‘I’m very lonely, so just for tonight, would you…’ and asked to be intimate, would you agree?
“I don’t have such shameless friends,” Luo Binghe said indifferently. “I don’t need friends.”
Head lowered, Shen Qingqiu scraped at the tea leaves in his cup, then took a sip. “I also don’t have such friends.”
“Really?” Luo Binghe said doubtfully. “Liu…Liu-shishu wouldn’t say that kind of thing?”
Tea sprayed all over the floor.
6.
Shang Qinghua, who’d had his upper body sprayed with tea, had gone to change his clothes and returned, and now continued his questions. “Do you think you’re good at sex? What about your partner?”
Shen Qingqiu let out a dry laugh. Luo Binghe looked on the verge of tears. End ID]
thinking about a moment of nieyao harmony early in 3zun’s sworn brotherhood when Jin Guangyao gets the Full Wangji experience and Nie Mingjue steps up to be like “It’s not you. He hates everyone Xichen likes.”
“but Er-ge likes everyone,” says Jiggy, feeling like Mingjue should have noticed the obvious flaw in this logic before spouting such nonsensical lies.
“yes.” says Mingjue, who has known Lan Wangji since he was a toddler who mostly expressed his feelings with biting. “exactly.”
BITING YOU BITING YOU BITING YOU
i love how shen qingqiu and shang qinghua completely shift genres when they see each other and like. they aren’t even subtle about it. you’re at a cang qiong mountain party talking with the grave and dignified qing jing peak lord, and he glances over your shoulder and frowns very slightly and says “this shen has some sudden urgent matters he must attend to; he begs your distinguished selves’ forgiveness.” and he glides over as gracefully as an immortal to where the an ding peak lord has just shown up, and he picks shang qinghua up in a fireman’s carry and drags him to the corner where they start whisper-yelling things like “good fucking work ‘great master’ i hope you’re proud of yourself” and “come ONNN bro what would you do in my position?” and shen qingqiu fully starts curbstomping shang qinghua. and you go over to see if everything is all right and as you approach shen qingqiu spins around, full 180°, and by the time he gets to degree 180 he’s completely flipped back into the dignified and distinguished immortal master shen who is so far removed from the petty passions of humanity. shang qinghua starts trying to army crawl away and shen qingqiu plants his foot on the corner of his robe without looking. not even luo binghe gets this kind of fucked up treatment
Happy PALentines day! The day of friendship!
be the cringe-inducing insincerity you wish to see in the world
or don't. spare us
thanks @nieyao I just choked on my lunch while reading these tags
It has come to my attention that not everybody knows about the wangxian ice dance performance so in honor of it being figure skating season and the Olympics being held in Beijing, here y’all go💖
Not "The Character did nothing wrong" or "The Character is irredeemably awful" but a secret third thing: The Character may display moments of deep love & compassion, may even have a strong sense of ethics, and may also be capable of brutal cruelty that is irreconcilable with those traits. The constant tension between the different sides of The Character's nature is exactly what makes them compelling, and attempting to reduce them down to simply "a terrible person" or "innocent & misunderstood" is missing the point of the questions a media with nuanced characters is asking you to consider
