Shen Qingqiu is literally the Danmei version of whatever the fuck Helen of Troy did
I don't think i'll ever be able to get over how coquetish Shen Qingqiu is, like, bro is supposed to be a repressed nerd inside a villain's body so why is he acting like the type of man wars are fought over? That head tilt with his voice drawing out the word "Shidi" would make ME fight a deranged half-demon over his corpse for 5 yrs straight, Liu Qingge was victim
My Roman Empire is that Bingge's adoptive mother would be disappointed with him if she were still alive in PIDW because she raised him to be kind and thoughtful. Not a tyrant that would resort to sexual pleasure whenever he was bored. And if she were to find out the way he treated his wives, she would be furious. Bingge treated his wives indifferently and essentially abandoned some of them. How could he abandon them when both he and his mom were left to rot in dust. The only thing Bingge and his mom had were each other.
If Shen Jiu were to bring up this fact, it would hurt Bingge more than falling down to the abyss ever could.
Shen Jiu and Shen Yuan
I know the svsss fandom jokes about Shen Qingqiu/Yuan being like Helen of Troy because he has a tendency to wifebeam himself. But what about Shen Jiu as Clytemnestra? Helen of Troy was the more universally known/liked one out of the two. Clytemnestra is practically Helen of Troy's shadow of a sister. Clytemnestra wasn't the face that launched a thousand ships to Troy. Instead her story is filled with betrayals that lead to her death by her son. It's similar to how Shen Jiu was killed by Bingge. Shen Jiu essentailly plays a parental figure to Bingge, but Bingge seeing how violent Shen Jiu could be, swears revenge and kills him. Just like how Orestes saw that Clytemnestra killed his father and swore revenge. Killing her in the end. You could even go as far as saying that Agamemnon abandoning Clytemnestra is similar to how Yue Qingyuan failed to come back for Shen Jiu.
Another interesting to note is that in the end, Orestes, who killed Clytemnestra, was acquitted by the gods. An eerie parallel to how PIDW fans would go to lengths to forgive Luo Bingge's crimes.
I love how the one thing Tianlang-Jun and Bingge can bond over are being absent fathers
(Jk why tf would Tianlang-Jun be willingly within a 10 foot radius of any version of Binghe)
I know damn well Airplane Bro has no idea what womens' anatomy is. If you told him what a clit was he would go insane because wtf do you mean good papapa should have one mentioned? I bet you 15 bucks he doesn't even know what a C-Section is nor does he know how a child separates from their mother.
PIDW definitely has passages that were put under r/menwritingwomen because SQH would use god-awful adjectives to describe how women were built. Shen Yuan would put a passage or two under this reddit thread about PIDW horrible writing when it comes to women.
I honestly agree with Shen Yuan when he was criticizing Shang Qinghua's writing. Airplane bro wasn't just digging up plot holes, oh no no no. Airplane bro is digging up his grave once Xian Shu Peak and Qi Qingqi hears about this nonsense.
Shang Qinghua is actually a girlboss but y'all just refuse to accept the truth. Just think about it, he wrote 50 volumes of shitty porn with a lot of plot holes, not even remembering any side characters, and his writing was extremely flawed. Yet bitches still paid for that shit; merch was sold, PIDW was one of the most popular novels, and his bills were paid. If that's not the most Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss shit you've ever seen, then I don't know what is.
Mother MXTX please feed SVSSS fans
Being an SVSSS fan is a struggle :)
If Luo Binghe was in a modern au he would be one of those insane Hello Kitty girls, no questions asked
You know how sometimes a fandom will look at a canon plain/unattractive character and will call them goodlooking and only refer to them as goodlooking? I believe that Shang Qinghua is the complete opposite of this and the fandom has collectively agreed that he is average looking despite him being canonically a handsome guy with a sleazy aura. Like guys, he is canonically handsome stop doing him dirty like this lmao
SVSSS characters as kdrama tropes
I'm gonna apply cliche kdrama tropes to svsss characters because i can
Mobei-Jun and Shang Qinghua: Overbearing rich handsome ceo lead slowly falls for his secretary but he doesn't know how to deal with his feelings so he keeps overworking his secretary, but he'll take them on expensive dates and buy them gifts. Meanwhile secretary is under the impression that their boss hates them and eventually sends a resignation letter to the shock of ceo male lead. This leads to a misunderstanding arc but dw they still fuck and get married in the end so all is good (basically a mix of 'What's wrong with secretary Kim?' and 'Business Proposal') Also there is usually a scene where the rich male lead and the secretary/subordinate eat cheap food together. Like instant noodles or something (pulled noodles anyone?)
Liu Qingge: Second male lead who the audience is all rooting for but the writers hate him so he doesn't get the girl despite being a green flag. A fan fav, but he still loses in the end to the first male lead to all of his fans' chagrin. His fans are in the trenches for him.
Shen Jiu and Yue Qingyan: Childhood friends/sweethearts but get seperated and meet back up as adults. The reunion isn't sweet because misunderstandings and so Shen Jiu believes Yue Qingyan purposely moved away without telling him but Yue Qingyan claims Shen Jiu has it all wrong but plot is forcing him to not spill the beans. Slowburn, second chance romance that has a lot of angst and misunderstadings which has fans questioning if they are truly meant for each other or nah
Binghe and Shen Qingqiu/Yuan: Super Handsome friend of female lead that gets all the girls. The female lead is the closest to the male lead so many girls use them to get closer to male lead. Of course, SY accepts because it's the least he can do for his best friend, but for some reason, Binghe likes none of them. Through many misunderstandings, Binghe eventually confesses to Shen Yuan and they live happily ever after in their freak4freak relationship. Slowburn to the max with several kiss scenes interrupted.
Liu Mingyan: The main girl character in a BL. At first, she's believed to be a rival for the main couple, but is later revealed to be a fujoshi and ships the main couple together. (Cliche based off of the one fujoshi in the BL 'Blood Link') She will discuss who is the top and bottom in public with absolutely no shame (Her character stays the same lowkey even if she was a cliche)
Mu Qingfang: He's the side character that is actually sensible. If there is some cringey/cliche kdrama scene happening in front of him, he will call out the bullshit. If the male lead is being a bitch, he'll slap some sense into him. If some character is being weird asf, he will be the first to question it. Remember, if all the main characters are dealing with nonsensical problems that only the male and female lead could have in a kdrama, he's the one dealing with taxes because he actually has responsibilities around here people!
Luo Bingge: Infuriating male lead in isekais. If the villainess suddenly changes then he thinks it's because they want his attention. Who wouldn't??? But just because he's their fiance, doesn't mean they're gonna get it. After all, he has his own lover. He doesn't want the villainess. But... if the villainess wants to break things off with him, then he won't let them go so easily now. Wait, what do you mean they already found another man? What about him??? He's the one they want...right? Suddenly he finds himself wanting the villainess, not his own lover.
