Yqy Being A Good Dad And Soft Makes My Heart Hurt - Blog Posts

Having a lot of thoughts about them as a family

Some thoughts:

- Both Shen Jiu and Yue Qingyuan fought for the empire in the last war with the demons during which YQY almost died. Afterwards they were in charge of training new recruits in cultivation. They remained there until Shen Yuan was almost died and afterwards SJ took his family and made them return to a village as far away as they could get.

- YQY almost died because of Xuan Su fuckery. SJ is now terrified of this happening to SY so he refuses to teach him anything to do with spirit swords or allow him to have one.

- SY, with memories here only from waking up post-almost-dying and ones about a novel he read in a previous life (?), actually does super want a spiritual sword if only so that he can maybe go see the creatures he’s been reading about and can’t find near their village. Mostly he wants his baba to maybe lighten up a little bit and trust him to not immediately die (he should not be trusted to not immediately die)

- When the empire calls both YQY and SJ to return to fight, SJ absolutely runs them out of their town.

- SY is hella glad actually because from what he remembers of the book, SJ is supposed to go back to war and like Die. And the YQY goes after him and also dies and listen he’s grown pretty fond of his second set of parents and would like to avoid that actually! Great job, baba!
