WAIT THAT EXISTS???? holy shit what. i’m ngl though the only two yanqing ships that i enjoy are with yunli or jing yuan (and fixed yanjing. my one and only fixed ship)

BUT HONESTLY I FEEL LIKE BLADE WOULD SEE HIMSELF IN YANQING ?? the like drive to prove himself and the arrogance of being the best from his yingxing days. a lot of interesting potential there (for me not in a romantic way but maybe for you it is lol)

ALSO bc you brought up jingliu i have to mention now: i have a like modern au version of jingliu training blade via stabbing him on the back burner. aka my jingliu/blade toxic bdsm sex fic. blame alyssa for that one bc we were talking about the fact that blade moans when he gets hit in cn dub and like his character stories in the jrh server and then alyssa was like “all i’m saying is that a modern au version would be her pegging him.” and then a lightbulb went off in my head and now i have 500 words of this monstrosity. this is also not romantic. this is purely in a sexual way BECAUSE I THINK ITS FUN AND INTERESTING. the basic premise of this is like self flagellation for both of them. anyways that’ll get finished… eventually……

TY FOR THE ASK THOUGH. I LIKE THINKING ABOUT CHARACTER RELATIONSHIPS.
