commissions open :3

Shen Yuan is actually a great cautionary tale abt underestimating the effect your presence has on the ones you care about. You are fucking important. Your good actions matter, and won’t be completely erased by one bad deed. Your life matters. People care about you. They won’t stop caring about you just bc you think they would be justified to. Communicate. Do not kys right in front of your favourite person out of a misguided attempt to cheer them up with your death you fucking idiot I swear to Airplane.

Okay this might be an unpopular opinion but while I 100% understand why people say "sickly shen yuan is fanon, not canon" I really think people who interpret shen yuan as disabled/sickly are making a good interpretation and not just making it up. Like the chances of someone healthy dying from pure anger are very low, but for someone who's chronically ill or has heart problems? That's way more likely. A lot of people act like the sick shen yuan headcanon came out of nowhere and I don't really see that

I understand the urge to comment on recent trends in which people seem to want increasingly sanitized media compared to the recent past, but when you say things like "people used to just shrug and move on when there were books and movies that made them uncomfortable" it's like...well. actually people used to convict artists of obscenity in a court of law.
