LINKDING

Summary: <blockquote>Ever since he was pushed into the Abyss, Luo Binghe has been dreaming of a strange world. In it, Luo Binghe's own face is everywhere, and his story is written out in humiliating detail for some stupid twink to read about. Luo Binghe hates the story, and he hates the dream realm, and he hates the godling within it - Shen Yuan - most of all. Unfortunately, Luo Binghe can't do anything about it - within these dreams, Luo Binghe is stuck within the body of a doll.</blockquote> ➤ it's always a good day when nyoomerr posts a new svsss fic! ➤ this one is about original lbh, beginning in his abyss years, visiting shen yuan in his dreams ➤ lbh can't move or act or speak in these dreams but he gets to hear/read about everything sy says about lbh ➤ over years lbh gets more and more obsessed with sy (obvs) ➤ I love watching lbh's growing realizations of the nature of his frustrations, mediated through getting to hear sy express things that are so different from what anyone in his waking life ever says ➤ I love how much he craves someone who SEES him like sy does, and yet sy can't see all of lbh because the parts of lbh's life he gets to see are all mediated through the nature of what a stallion novel will focus on! ➤ and the ENDING. it is perfect! I'm feral at the thought of what will happen next ➤ 17k words in length

Summary: <blockquote>After being turned away by the nice Shizun of that other world, Luo Binghe finds himself in the modern world where he can find a new nice Shizun for himself. Instead, he finds Shen Yuan, who could not possibly be who he's searching for - he's crass, and inelegant, and looks only vaguely related to Shen Qingqiu. Luckily for both of them, Shen Yuan mistakes Luo Binghe as a cosplayer for hire, and asks to rent him out as his very normal new boyfriend.</blockquote> ➤ I feel sure I've talked about this fic on masto before but I can't find it in my tags?! I've been following it as a wip and it's now DONE! ➤ the premise: bing-ge transmigrates to our world, and shen yuan thinks he's an attractive but incompetent and down on his luck cosplay-boyfriend-for-rent and takes pity on him ➤ sy tries to reform lbh and turn him into someone who's not terrible at being a boyfriend. meanwhile lbh is slowly discovering that maybe.....it's possible.........for someone to care about him and be nice to him just because they like him?? sounds fake! but what if? ➤ every single aspect of their relationship (and everything else in the fic!!!) is a COMPLETE delight. I love to see how much sy's sharp-mouthed peerless cucumber side is out in full force, and how feral lbh is, and how the two of them play off each other ➤ 86k words in length
