The Protagonist’s Halo
The Protagonist’s Halo
I was thinking about Maigu ridge yesterday and my controversial opinion that I do genuinely and objectively think it's the best climax of the three mxtx series despite not enjoying reading the scene. I think what makes it so special is that as opposed to the other climaxes, sv builds up a sense of gradual dread towards it from the very beginning. You know it's going to happen. Shen Yuan tells you: luo binghe merges the realms at the end of the story, this is an unavoidable fact of the canon. But as things start to go to shit and the plot signs are pointing towards it actually happening what once was a somewhat reassuring expectation that you know what's going to happen turns into an inevitable dread that you're desperately hoping is shifted off course before it's too late.
And then sv hits you with the second aspect of Maigu ridge that it's been slowly getting you to dread: the story always ends in sex. That's how things are fixed. Whether the characters want it or not, the genre formula says sex crowns all. That's just how both PIDW and romance works. So there's this horrific reversal of expectations as you're watching all of these things go to shit, and a sense of futility connecting you to sqq as you both know there's only one way the story's going to be able to end, no matter how much else has been changed throughout the narrative. And then rather than granting you any kind of reprieve with the scene itself, that maybe somehow it'll all be fixed easily in the last minute, the climax is viscerally horrific and messy and wildly uncomfortable to sit though. It's like it's sitting you down to say here, this is the type of story you buckled in to read, here's how it will happen. You're rewarded this farce of a conclusion that by all accounts should have been satisfying, but all of the illusion has been stripped out of it until there's just a deep unease left.
Roundup of excellent tags on this one:
#SO much can be said about what it’s doing thematically#but besides the subtext and commentary what it does TONALLY really does blow me away every time#that total dread really is the perfect way to describe it#the way when lbh is revealed to be powering the sword still#the way the bottom drops out even when you could see it coming#the slow slow almsot agonizing build up as sqq wanders the cave in#in the dark#alone (or so he thinks) with this tension building and building#it was hard to get thru the first read but now I appreciate it so much#this book doesn’t flinch away from EVERY aspect of the meta commentary#we are discussing sex and humanity and perspective and common trashy tropes and by god we are going the distance - via @opheliapurple
#it's consistent with the themes across the whole novel#in that svsss is taking these expected genre tropes and revealing just how miserable they actually are#like how it's fun to read a revenge narrative but terrifying and miserable to live through it#maigu ridge is the same#fuck or die plots or narrative climaxes where sex saves the world#they might be fun to read#but to live through? it fucking sucks#it's painful and it strips everyone involved of their agency#and i appreciate that svsss tackles it that way#and that it has lasting impacts on their relationship too since it was deeply traumatic for binghe - via @waitineedaname
#it also really addresses the system#the system could have given sqq the pendant and skipped this whole horror show#but it won't because that's not dramatic#that's not a romance#that's not the story you said you wanted#are you happy now?#we make fun of sqq for treating people like tropes and characters but the climax treats sqq like a character#the author is knocked out but the audience remains and hungers for blood - via @youremysunshine8
#that is sort of the redeeming power of shen qingqiu#he knows that xin mo can only be cleansed through sex or violence#but he offered himself up willingly for that#shen qingqiu of all characters understands when he's being coerced and stripped of his agency#he's spent the entirety of svsss resisting that#every time a wifeplot happens to him he slips sideways and manages to escape#that is inherent to the genreplay that is in svsss. sqq is a shizun he is not a wife#he has been adamant about being treated like a shizun instead of a wife to be conquered#but on this occasion he goes into it willingly. he walks across the ridge to go find the wifeplot and make it happen#horrific as that wife plot is#shen qingqiu's self sacrifice in that scene wasn't just physical and bodily it was also the agency that he prized and protected so adamantl#and he did it because he wanted to save luo binghe#the interesting irony of choosing to have your agency stripped but you chose it. knowing it all. choosing it anyway - via @silversquare

Role reversal au but shen Yuan gets temporarily de-aged into a 5 year old.. at first binghe is having the time of his life. His a-yuan got even cuter!! Everytime shen yuan grabs binghes robe and looks up at him with those big eyes and says "bing-gege?" Binghe wants to scream and cry and roll around on the floor from how CUTE it is
Them at qian Cao listening to the peak lord explain what curse shen yuan must have been hit with but neither of them can focus because shen yuan keeps trying to escape binghes hold and touch the medicine bottles
Unlike his adult disciple, baby shen yuan smiles wide without hiding behind a fan, tells binghe what he wants to eat instead of saying he's fine with anything, holds out his arms for hugs and cuddles 24/7... its heaven until shen yuan asks where his family is
Binghe: you... never mentioned your family
Shen yuan: oh I have a mom and a dad and da-ge and er-ge and meimei !! Meimei is only one year old and she just learned how to call me ge :D
Binghe: aww :) okay, your friend Shang qinghua is from your hometown I'll ask him where your family is :)
Shang qinghua: Okay so the thing is........... um.....
Shen Yuan sobbing uncontrollably all night because his family isn't "in this world." No amount of hugs or snacks will make him calm down. Binghe wondering how he didn't know something like that about his favourite disciple.
When shen yuan turns back to his normal adult body, binghe tentatively brings the topic up. Shen yuan opens his fan and casually says "shizun need not worry, this disciple is no longer a child." Binghe doesn't push but he does stay awake at night wondering how much pain shen yuan doesn't share with anyone else
Wanted to get some clothing practice in and the only way I can do studies is if Shen Qingqiu is there lololol
Edit: decided to color the sketches!
WHY DIDNT I POST THIS ONE I WAS COOKING...
okay getting back to this:
shen yuan and binghe are tasked with getting rid of this shapeshifting demon that's been causing mayhem. they arrive at its hideout and binghe tells shen yuan to stay outside so they don't have to worry about getting mixed up - they also have a secret code they set up beforehand.
binghe wanders in and runs into a beautiful woman and goes yeah nice try and immediately tries to chop the demon in half. the demon panics and then takes the shape of this cultivator's companion who he saw earlier before they seperated
shapeshifter: shizun wouldn't hurt his disciple would he!?
binghe: *freezing in place*
shapeshifter: oh. ohhhh :)
binghe's heart racing as 'shen yuan' removes his layers and steps closer with a seductive smile. binghe obviously knows it's not his a-yuan but ... he cant make himself swing his sword on shen yuan's sweet face...
the shapeshifter is LEAGUES below binghe, it's extremely weak compared to the heavenly demon. but binghe can't even push it away when it presses its bare chest against his body and whines "shizun is bullying this disciple..."
(For a split second binghe actually considers it. Shen Yuan is outside, he won't see-)
Binghe just runs away and finds shen yuan at the entrance where he left him. His disciple is fretting over him, wondering why the protagonist is so freaked out??
Shen Yuan: I'll go and fight it instead-
binghe, imagining shen yuan seeing his own image half naked and realizing his shizun got so flustered because he's in love with his disciple: NO! let's return. cang qiong can send someone else...
*cang qiong sends others*
liu qingge: you need to send someone else
yue qingyuan: you need to send someone else
the shapeshifter demon: damn i hit the jackpot by using this body, literally no one can try to hurt me when i look like this- who are you
shang qinghua readying his sword: FINALLY I CAN HIT CUCUMBER BRO BACK WITHOUT THE PROTAG KILLING ME!
everyones in shock because how did the an ding peak head disciple prove himself the most capable!?
investing in unpopular novels
Bingge gets his kind shizun, he’s smaller than expected but that’s no problem 🧡
One inter dimensional trip later:
He's coping 🙌

Another clothing study! Featuring our favorite shitty author 🥰
Hands down the funniest and best reaction SQQ had to anything ever was when LBH tried to only-one-bed them by getting two rooms for the three of them, and he straight up marched into the first he saw, shut both pathetic gays tf OUT, went “goodnight” and just left LQG and LBH to tear each other apart
Working on a new piece and I loooove how the hands turned out hehehehehehe

In case you're having a good day I just want to remind you that shen jiu's last words to yue qingyuan were "Never appear before me again"
Im picking and choosing what I like from the new extras but one new headcannon I’m a believer in is after MBJ reunites with his husband his fear of abandonment goes up 100000% and he refuses to leave his tiny human alone for even one (1) second
