what do the mortals want to know?

Shang Qinghua: Well, don't force yourself

Liu Qingge: Enough. You and Shen Qingqiu come from the same home town, right?

Shang Qinghua: Yeah...

Liu Qingge: What does it mean when he calls me 'straight'?

Shang Qinghua, internally: I could tell him the truth, or....

Shang Qinghua: Oh, that means you're a coward who isn't man enough to be more open about your feelings towards him

Liu Qingge: What?! That Shen Qingqiu!!

Shang Qinghua: Why are you getting mad at him? It's your fault that you've been leading him on for all these years

Liu Qingge: ...He's right... I should finally confess my feelings to him. Thanks Shang Qinghua

But also, I raise you Shen Yuan shielding his twin from any interaction that could trigger him.

Shen Yuan seeing how much Shen Jiu hates being touched, so he becomes the tactile twin who is just always there, throwing an arm around the shoulders of their martial siblings. Shen Yuan who notices his A-Jiu's patience is wearing thin and draws all the attention to himself. Shen Yuan who happily greets any visitors and takes them on a walk around their peak so that Shen Jiu can remain in the bamboo house undisturbed. Shen Yuan who is so dramatic that nobody sees the slight shake of Shen Jiu's hands after something reminded him of their past.

Give me Shen Yuan who uses his inner hater to innocently and eloquently dismantle the confidence of anyone who dared insult his A-Jiu. Without blinking or tarnishing his own reputation.

Give me Shen Jiu whose hackles smooth with a sigh as soon as he's alone with Shen Yuan, and Shen Yuan whose smile falls once he doesn't have to perform anymore.

Give me Shen Yuan pleading with Shen Jiu to tell people what has really been going on with him, to explain the trips into town or anything really. Give me Shen Jiu saying he's tired and doesn't want to talk about it, and Shen Yuan staying silent as he plots revenge on his twin's behalf.

Give me Shen Yuan being the twin nobody gets past, the one commonly acknowledged as "the hurdle to get through if you want to talk to his twin" and doing it in a way that nobody notices until they're already back in their own home.

Oh hey pals, new AO3 scam just hit!

Just like the tumblr scam where they pretend to be "the support team" this is also a scam.

I edited out the link because I GUARANTEE if you go to it you will get your computer hacked and your AO3 or discord account stolen.

I am so mad because I got this 30 seconds after posting a new fic.

DO NOT FALL FOR THESE SCAMS.

No legitimate website support will EVER contact you like this!

What if Ning Yingying was immortal? I'm not talking about the usual immortality in a cultivation setting where they live a very long time, I'm talking about the kind where she resurrects anytime she dies. She gets strangled, thrown off a cliff, stabbed in the heart with a poisoned blade, buried alive, and each times she comes back to life with a gasp.

Luo Bingge and the readers always thought he had made it just in the nick of time to save her. She would never tell him otherwise.

Ning Yingying joined the cultivation world hoping for answers, but it's just one more secret she needs to keep. She doesn't know what caused it, or what might cause it to stop, or if it would ever stop. She's glad cultivation stops aging because she used to be terrified of becoming so old she could no longer move while still never dying.

And the other one is always scheming.
