[ OCs ] - Friday Gazette
I wanna cope through oc brainrot and art during a very challenging time so let me share my ocs - Robin Paige and Sadie Oakes !! Robin is the lousy (she prob reeks….) but extremely reliable worker who meets Sadie Oakes, the well-known ex-employee she replaced five years ago in her current job position, for the first time.
The office literally hasn’t moved on from the so-called perfect employee for 5 yrs which caused the mistreatment and comparison Robin faced but she finally got to see the (in)famous Sadie Oakes in the flesh out of coincidence…
…Or is it through shared circumstances?

thinking abt how rody canonically hates bitter food but tolerates manon’s cooking, and then leaving vince’s dishes pile up in his fridge. very much reinforces the fact that he struggles to acknowledge and communicate his needs, only eating bitter food if it’s made by someone he loves. also he either prefers fast food because its a silly little thing or its meant to represent how he really lacks standards for the way he’s treated

Can we talk about how amazing Shen Qingqiu actually is?? He wakes up in an unfamiliar room to an unfamiliar person talking like he knows him, and his first instinct is to play along to buy himself time to figure out the situation without endangering himself. He quickly puts it together and manages to outwardly keep his cool and assess the situation. At multiple times in the story he’s forced to think quickly on his feet and he’s GOOD at it, he realizes things fast, memorizes things easily, he’s extremely studious and read through the entire Qing Jing library as soon as he realized where and who he was. He’s quick witted and flexible with his thinking, great at problem solving, a great actor… Sure, he couldn’t fool people into thinking he was the exact same as someone they had known for years, but he’s great at keeping his thoughts and feelings on the inside while showing a cool, controlled, *confident* face to everyone else. Actually he’s really good at genuinely taking control of situations in general, even when he IS internally screaming. Fake it til you make it WORKS for him, because even when he feels like he’s faking, he is doing amazing work and showing great competense. On top of that he’s very compassionate even when he doesn’t necessarily want to be, and while he was given a body that had already become an immortal cultivator, he still put in a LOT of work to practice, refine and master that cultivation until it was completely natural and second nature for him to use it. And that’s fucking AMAZING.
The only times his abilities fail him, really, is when he believes he already knows how something is supposed to go and thinking it’s set in stone. He believes Luo Binghe must hate him, must want a harem, and that he himself isn’t that important or desirable, and he believes it SO STRONGLY that he can’t see past it until it’s shoved directly in his face. That’s the only times he truly acts like an oblivious idiot, and honestly can you blame him? Like I said, he believes those are facts set in stone, no matter how much the evidence contradicts it. The pitfall of having detailed future information of an alternate timeline, I suppose.
TL;DR: SQQ is a brilliant, quick witted, creative, intelligent and hard working man and I fucking LOVE that for him. He was the perfect candidate for filling the role of the academic peak’s leader and the sect’s strategist, because he shares all those same qualities with his predecessor (I’m assuming, I haven’t actually read the SJ extras yet oops). The main thing setting them apart, really, is just that SY was raised to be *kind* where SJ was unfortunately raised to be cruel.
Chef’s kiss, truly.

Shen Qingqiu’s narration is always like “Wow that man is beautiful, wish he were hunkier tho, it’s just what the audience wants I’m like every other dude who enjoys a good hunky man, I like women I like women I swear, my favorite character is a woman who has no sex scenes in this smut novel I exclusively read for the hot protagonist man, gosh I wanna buy these women better clothes this fanservice is ridiculous they look so uncomfortable BUT I’M STILL INTO WOMEN’S LACK OF CLOTHING wow look at that man’s arms he could crush my face between his thighs-”
