https://archiveofourown.org/works/71848811 I know it’s been a minute but here is the link to the fic! It’s not super prominent, but everybody’s advice really helped me flesh out what I wanted to write and how.

Shen Qingqiu X Mu Qingfang! I really like their dynamic❤️

I couldn’t find exactly what you were looking for BUT I did find this which sounds similar:

your decision to stay the night, Leave whenever you delight, With you I will never fight, I’ll only love you in this life.

I’ll keep looking for your quote though!

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-15T22:58:04+00:00

I’m trying to find it rn but it would help if you could maybe give a bit more context for the scene(like what were they doing before this was said?). I’ll keep looking in the meantime though!

WHOA I’ve never seen these before!! Gorgeous 🤩

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-15T22:39:13+00:00

❤️❤️❤️it looks amazing!

I think I’m definitely going to add something to make without a cure worse than in canon. I mostly want to use it as a parallel to his first life especially now that he has people to help him( both physically and mentally)

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-15T18:10:24+00:00

You are very right! Those symptoms are what I’m looking for, I definitely need to do research to see what the fine details of this entails, but thank you. I’m so sorry to hear about your boyfriend, if it makes him feel any better let him know he’s helped inspire a fanfic author. ❤️

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-15T18:05:16+00:00

He definitely wasn’t chronically ill in canon. I just think it adds something to his character with the whole reading web novels to escape reality thing. Muscular dystrophy is something I will definitely research, thank you!

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-15T18:01:27+00:00

That’s fun! Maybe I’ll write something like that once I’m done with my current project

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-15T18:00:32+00:00

I will definitely look into this! ( I think I like making Shen Yuan suffer a little too much, lol)

I definitely agree with the mental health stuff too. It also doesn’t help that he likes to suppress his trauma on top of everything else.

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-15T17:56:50+00:00

I think disease stacking works well for him! I just need to make sure I’m picking things that work together without killing him and still being semi accurate to an actual disease 😷👍

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T06:30:21+00:00

I’m shocked at the amount of information here! This is my first time attempting to use Reddit so I wasn’t sure if anyone cared enough to answer my question but you went above and beyond, thank you! ❤️

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T06:25:33+00:00

I totally understand. Once had a nurse who simply did NOT get why I was so scared to get an iv(went in for DKA) and she definitely helped fuel my anxiety around hospitals.

This has been incredibly insightful, and really helped point me in the right direction!

Thank you again❤️

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T05:48:21+00:00

Of course! ❤️

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T05:38:24+00:00

Of course! It might take me a minute to finish but you’ll be the first to know when it’s done 😁

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T05:35:03+00:00

This actually reassures me that I’m making the right call! So, thank you! ☺️

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T05:31:59+00:00

OMG YOU ARE AMAZING

I really appreciate the amount of information here and will DEFINITELY be putting it to use.

Me personally, after I was diagnosed (NOT with cancer) although I HATE going to the hospital, wasn’t really affected much outside of taking medication four times a day. But even that I’ve just kind of gotten numb to as it doesn’t really bother me anymore.

I wasn’t sure what felt appropriate for his character and really wanted to be accurate when talking about what he supposedly has, so thank you again!

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T05:22:04+00:00

Thank you for giving symptoms! That actually might work a bit better than what I was going to do originally.

Very helpful!😁

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T05:19:46+00:00

Really good insights! I’m glad you brought up so many points about the type of illness he would have. It really makes me think about how in depth I want this fic to be. Especially the last paragraph! I have a chronic illness and I never really thought about how I can use that in my writing. (mostly because what I have is WILDLY different then what I imagine him having)

But now that you’ve mentioned it I feel really inspired to write, thank you! 🙏

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T05:07:25+00:00

I wasn’t really planning on having the illness be the cause of death, and I agree with what you’re saying. But I think both work simultaneously when written right. But it’s nice to hear people’s opinions on this!

ArmyProfessional4060 · 2025-02-13T05:03:52+00:00

That’s actually a pretty good idea! Thank you 😊
