- Here in ch21 qi qingqi thinks she's dealing with SQQ's twink boytoy who brought snacks and is just done

- 'A little while later, someone lifted the carriage curtain, and Luo Binghe smiled while asking, “Shizun, snacks, water, or is your waist sore?”' ...did you get that boy to give you back rubs like 'hope this doesn't awaken anything in him!!'

- '"Beautiful beyond comprehension?”
She isn’t even showing her entire face. No matter how beautiful, can she be better-looking than me?'

I love one (1) absolute bitch child

- "The four great cultivation sects made up the main force of the participants. With Cang Qiong Mountain in the lead, following closely behind were Zhao Hua Temple, Tian Yi Monastery, and Huan Hua Palace.

Of the four sects, Cang Qiong Mountain was the most comprehensive, the twelve peaks each had their own strengths, in multiple fields. Temples3 and monasteries3 were naturally the headquarters of those who had become Buddhist monks and Daoist priests. Huan Hua Palace was more complicated: their sect followed the teachings of various different schools, had an aptitude for the Daoist art of concealment, and interacted the most with the secular world; the level of their techniques was not clear, but there was one point on which there was no doubt: they were absolutely the richest of the sects. They contributed the most money every conference."

Answering one of [personal profile] superborb's questions the other day about Buddhist cultivation in xianxia

- ‘I just think he should only date QUALITY girls!!’ ok kiddo. Mmhm.

- Also I guess so far LBH has never stopped to consider his obsession object could be straight? I mean granted, it’s not a thing I’d ever think about SQQ either, but.

- SQQ REALLY callous/detached about the first Qin girl’s death. (He’s not good at that when it’s Binghe.) Is this detachment a processing mechanism re his situation/what he’s about to have to do? Or he just doesn’t think they’re real? Or he’s a subconscious jealous bitch?

- 'Nu Yuan Chan was an amphibious creature: after sucking three people dry underwater, it was itching to climb the bank and search for new targets. Luo Binghe’s expression was icily severe; he snapped his fingers, igniting a burst of flames at his fingertips, then boosting them with spiritual energy, flicked them towards the lurking demonic beast. As soon as they touched the hair-like strands the flames surged into an inferno, forcing the black mass of hair to speedily retreat into the water, afraid to come onto the bank. He’d executed the entire set of actions in a single smooth sequence, full of formidable might, utterly relentless. Shen Qingqiu internally held up a sign: Luo Binghe, ten points!'

jfc can you--for five min together, can you not be obsessed with him. I know you don't see it but it is so embarrassing.

relatedly: need post-canon fic where SQQ thinks he's cool but then has full on internal/external 'well MY HUSBAND--' passages of this ilk, as per the text

two wolves inside you: Giant Bitch and Obnoxious Wife Guy

- Any second now Shang Qingha should show up, and I'm reasonably excited to meet Nie Huaisang If He Were a Cringe Post

- Me, nearing the end of the part of the book covered by s1 of the donghua: this is it, mr. Frodo. If I take one more step, it'll be the furthest away from the Shire I've ever been. I'll finally know what fucking happens in plaguey town--

- Arguably if SQQ believed these were real people he had an ethical duty to tell them the conference was going to be invaded even at the cost of his own life/at the risk the system wouldn't let him/tho he probably wouldn't have been believed, so is in part responsible for deaths

- "Though he had made mental preparations long ago, when such an enormous scene of chaos played out before him, Shen Qingqiu realized, with his scalp numb and his fingers icy-cold, that he could not do as he’d previously expected, and just pretend he was watching the climax of an ultra-realistic show."

Ok here we go the freak out I was expecting
