i keep seeing this play out in real time and it's fucking hilarious

Qijiu Week 2023

Day 7: Domestic Life & Warm Meal

———

In exchange for Xuan Su, Yue Qingyuan took Shen Qingqiu far away and disappeared from the cultivation world. Meanwhile, Shen Jiu knows that the beast's blood lies dormant within his body, but is unaware that Yue Qingyuan, too, has placed his life in Luo Binghe's hands.

Peaklord Shen (svsss) as Lord Shen (Kung fu Panda)

People really read Scum Villian and think Shen Yuan as Shen Qingqiu doesn't care about any of the people around him?

Yeah he struggles to see them as actual people at first but that changes over the years! Long before he realises it!

And saying that he doesn't care that Shen Jiu was abused? He literally yells at Airplane for creating his backstory and putting him through it!

He does feel for Shen Jiu and mourns that he wasn't there to hear Yue Qingyuan's explanation and apology

However! He doesn't let Shen Jiu's trauma justify him abusing Luo Binghe in the same way which is correct!

Yes what Shen Jiu went through was horrible and deserving of of sympathy but he also regularly had a child whipped bloody!

He didn't just bully Luo Binghe he abused him horribly and broke his spirit

The abyss didn't really blacken Luo Binghe in PIDW, Shen Jiu did. The abyss was the final act of Shen Jiu in the process

Thats why while SVSSS Binghe is blackened its not nearly as much. Because there were gaps between Shen Jiu and the abyss where Shen Qingqiu was loving and kind because he was Shen Yuan

They spell it out! Shen Jiu is a complicated villian, he is sympathetic but he's still a villian. (And I say this as a Shen Jiu fan)

And Shen Yuan pretends he doesn't care, that he's seperate, as a defense mechanism. But his actions are the opposite

He saves Liu Qingge so Liu Qingge can protect him later and then repeatedly puts himself in danger to protect or help Liu Qingge

He goes running towards Cang Qiong when Luo Binghe is laying seige to protect everyone and because he's realised Luo Binghe loves him and has accepted that even though he's still struggling with what it means for him

He repeatedly abandons attempts to run away and protect himself in favour of protecting others

In fact in Sha Hualing's raid on the sect after he's poisoned (that happened because of an action he took to instinctively protect) he was fully prepared to self detonate right then and there to protect the sect

So from really quite early on he was already treating them as more than characters

Just how can you read Scum Villian and think Shen Yuan doesn't care?

(yes this is about that one post. No I'm not responding to it directly to save my sanity)

wealthy, gifted, loved and admired guys that need a lesson in humility to earn their comforting big-dick boyfriend xD

now i’m not denying the fact that these characters were privileged at at least some point in their life (xl being born into it as royalty, sy being a second-generation rich kid and wwx being adopted by the jiangs), but saying that they ‘need a lesson in humility to earn their comforting big-dick boyfriend’, in my opinion, is a gross misrepresentation of their characters.

from the way you phrase it, you make it seem like the advantages that these characters’ possess is an inherently bad thing. privilege is no one’s sin. none of these characters asked to be born with talent and/or riches, it’s simply just the circumstances they happened to find themselves in, and there’s nothing they could have done about it.

being privileged in and of itself is neither inherently good nor bad, and the deciding factor lies in whether privileged individuals choose to acknowledge this privilege, and how they choose to use it.

some choose to use it in a way that is harmful due to perceived superiority and arrogance. this is when there is a need for ‘a lesson in humility’ in order for there to be character growth.

now do kindly elaborate and provide some concrete examples rooted in fact to illustrate your point. how do these three characters choose to use their own privilege to harm? i would be more than happy to hear you out provided you can give valid proof.

I dunno, I think that post-Scum villain MXTX wants to write a poor mistreated Cinderella protagonist, but somehow keeps ending up with these wealthy, gifted, loved and admired guys that need a lesson in humility to earn their comforting big-dick boyfriend xD (Hard work, who? Don't know her, I was born better/wealthier!)

Like, the boyfriend is universally a dick to the protagonist's family members/friends who in any other story would be terrible abusive faithless monsters - but somehow MXTX cannot write them as anything else than decent, upright, complicated and dedicated people who only leave the protagonist's side when faced with insurmountable odds, and yet still try to support them.

Dunno, it's like we're trapped in the genre and can't get out :0

i just want he xuan and qi yan to be besties

DON'T GO ON HAMAS.//////COM

I recently saw tweets about this website called Hamas .com.

It is a site made by Israel to steal your information.

Its just another way that Israel will harm Palestinians by making a fake website to confuse advocates
