213 | Scum Villain Fic Recs
Alphabetical order within each category. I tried to keep this to no more than 1-3 favorite fics from any one author (...or, failing that, no more than 1-3 per category), but if I've recced someone here, than I've probably enjoyed their other works as well.
behind a clock no longer chiming by Jinxed_Ink (also filed under: YQY/SJ)

After his death as Luo Binghe’s prisoner, the original Shen Qingqiu wakes up in Scum Villain’s universe, in the same body Shen Yuan transmigrated into. A body Shen Yuan has not vacated.
Faced with a world in which all it took for his sect to thrive, for Yue Qingyuan to live and for Luo Binghe to avoid turning into the scourge of the realms was for someone to take his place and live his life in his stead, Shen Jiu finds himself having to confront old hurts, his own accountability and the inevitability of human (and demonic) nature.
Crowning Glory by persicae
https://archiveofourown.org/works/20220109
The last thing that Shen Qingqiu ever wants to deal with is politics, let alone demon politics. But when the demon lord of wind, Taifeng-Jun, arrives early for negotiations, Shen Qingqiu is simply going to have to deal with politics - demon politics - until Luo Binghe returns.
With any luck, Shen Qingqiu will survive in one piece.

Shizun has Binghe hold on to him from behind whenever they’re in the air, and shouts at him to speak up when he attempts to whisper sweetly in his ear. Perhaps he ought to be embarrassed by his failed overtures. He does feel his cheeks heat and his stomach swoop from more than their rising altitude, but it only serves to make Binghe want to squeeze him tighter. A lesson in seduction.
The only man Binghe has ever wanted to please is Shizun, and he will learn to be less clumsy. Shizun will teach him, as he always has.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/19416133
Luo Binghe, the former Heavenly Emperor, was overthrown and forced to reincarnate into a dying mortal child.
Unexpectedly, the savior who came to raise him, was none other than the person he detested the most—the black-hearted Peak Lord, Shen Qingqiu. Living under Shen Qingqiu's wing, Luo Binghe, with memories of his former life intact, was trapped!
And yet, almost twenty years later...
Shen Qingqiu had the fucking gall to save him, raise him, treat him tenderly, spend nearly twenty years with him, only to push him away? To think, he was brazen enough to flash those deceptively warm eyes at him each morning, to ply him with artificial praise, to treat him with such care and false sincerity, only to send him off?
Unacceptable!

For the first half-day of the 105th Immortal Alliance Conference, Yue Qingyuan almost felt like everything might go off all right. Unlike the last time Cang Qiong Mountain had hosted the Conference, the speakers were in the right order—the head of Huan Hua Palace needed to feel important, given the quantity of silver he sunk into this money pit every fourth year—and no one had skimped on the service on the sect leaders' platform. Beautiful, buxom women in soft pastels played popular compositions on the qin and circulated with trays of beverages while the sun rose high above the day-drinkers. Standing by the balcony with a cup of wine in his hand, Shen Qingqiu looked pleased.
Ah, if only that welcome expression weren't so worrisome.

Shen Jiu went through three qi deviations during the first six months he spent at Cang Qiong.
The episodes were unpleasant, but the time he spent recovering from them was worse -because it was boring, because he was forced to lie still, when stillness, in the streets, had been a synonym for death.
And because, every moment that he spent on his back, counting the cracks in the infirmary’s ceiling, the hope of returning to find Yue Qi still alive withered and died, bit by bit.

“Sometimes when Luo Binghe and Shen Qingqiu make love-” Shang Qinghua thinks of the right way to phrase it, drawing on his extensive experience- “Shen Qingqiu’s heavenly pillar descends to Luo Binghe’s ravine, if you understand me,” he says, moving his eyebrows in a way that is meant to convey deep meaning.
Mobei-Jun does not make an expression of understanding, but he’s watching Shang Qinghua very, very closely.
“Shang Qinghua,” he says. “You want to be inside me?”
