So during my playthrough of Dragon Quest XI, I named my hero character "Shen Yuan" for kicks and giggles.
For those who don't know, Dragon Quest is a video game series whose designs are done by the late Toriyama and is a massively popular series in Japan. It's the prototype for every medieval fantasy JRPG.
Dragon Quest XI in particular follows the selfless chosen one/lost prince, The Luminary, as he battles the forces of darkness to bring peace back to the magical world of Erdrea. The hero is a blank slate for you to project yourself onto who doesn't talk or emote for most of the game. The "official" name for the protagonist is Eleven.
Now all I can think of is if post-canon SVSSS Shen Yuan/Shen Qingqiu re-transmigrated to Dragon Quest as the famed protagonist and now instead of being the villain who has to avoid a bad ending, he has to deal with the pressure of being the Messiah of a fantasy world that everyone expects him to save.
Meanwhile, everyone's confused as to why Shen Qingqiu (who is really Eleven the protag) is acting so bland and quiet.
The other peak lords all assume it's another qi deviation, but Shang Qinghua and Luo Binghe figure out pretty quickly that this isn't the Shen Qingqiu that they know. Someone was forced into shizun's body, so Shizun must be wherever they were from. So Luo Binghe grabs Xin Mo and travels to Erdrea to find his beloved shizun.
So Shen Yuan's party gets to the World Tree to fulfill the hero's destiny and defeat the Dark Lord, only to find that Luo Binghe has already defeated him and is desperate to bring his shizun back, wrecking everyone else in the process.
Shen Yuan/"Eleven": BINGHE, I HAVE A WORLD TO SAVE! I'M THE PROTAGONIST NOW!
Luo Binghe: NOT ANYMORE! I TOOK CARE OF IT FOR YOU, SHIZUN! NOW COME BACK WITH ME!

Cancer Placement Observations ~ Part 1
From someone who both has and been around Cancer placements their whole life.
Moms with cancer placements frequently still prefer to be addressed as "mommy," "mama," or any other name their children used to call them as children.
The 9H Cancer may have strong emotional ties to their opinions and values.
Not all Cancer Moons good processing their emotions. Yes, they may be adept at communicating and understanding them, but depending on the circumstances and the house it is in, processing may be challenging for some.
Cancer Mars placements, in particular, are excellent leaders who are frequently overlooked. Why? People are at ease around the naive and don't feel under pressure or overwhelmed since they perceive the naive as understanding and upfront.
The voice of 3H Cancer are very soothing, tranquil, and gentle. Mercury's in Cancer also apply to this.
Cancer Placements consistently is able to make their food feel comforting, at home, and prepared with love.
A Cancer Mercury will frequently be able to perceive and comprehend your current feelings and emotions when you speak to them. When speaking to someone they care about, they are especially watchful because they want to make sure they don't miss anything so they can console or assist them if they are feeling down or anything of the kind.
If they and their spouse have a history together, 7H Cancer people may not want to leave them or find it difficult to do so.
Of all the signs, Cancer Placements are the best at expressing and letting their inner kid out, depending on the aspects, houses, and other signs in one's chart.
People underrate how popular and successful naives with a Cancer MC can be, in my opinion. Popular and well-respected individuals include Beyonce, Britney Spears, Jennifer Aniston, and Kendrick Lamar.
How are your mother-related problems/mommy issues going, Cancer Lilith?
Cancer Venus frequently has fantasies about a childhood sweetheart.
Not all Cancer Placements get along well with their families or mothers. It does have a big impact and role on who they are and thier life.
Typically, 5H Cancer are wonderful parents who want to make sure their child is happy, safe, and protected.

The Falcon, for @campaignskyjacks
I had an idea to make Project Falcon a luminary when we first got news of them being born, but it took me this long to finally make it!
The piece is done in my best recreation of Carson Ellis's style, since I adore her art to the ends of the earth :3
