    Summary

    Mobei-Jun does not speak human. He does not speak human even a little bit, as Shang Qinghua has tested by saying absolutely unholy filthy things to him that should have gotten him instantly murdered, but instead only earns him a blank, annoyed stare. 

    “My king, please, it’s only water. It’s unpoisoned, see? See, I’ll drink some. Ahh, tasty, safe water! Please, drink it? You’re sweating so much, you’re, like, melting.” He helps Mobei-Jun drink the water. “... God I really want to lick the sweat off your neck.” 

    Mobei-Jun does not react. Ahaha, this is kind of fun. Except for all the ways that it’s so fucking inconvenient.

    Shang Qinghua wrote PIDW to have many different languages; he does not remember this.

    Summary

    Shen Yuan’s smugness lasted up until Shen Qingqiu whisked him off to the Bamboo House, where Shen Yuan was meant to brew and serve his shizun his first pot of tea as official head disciple. Shen Qingqiu didn’t dump it on his head, thankfully, but he did give Shen Yuan a rather unnerving warning:

    “If you have the nerve to present qianyuan in the future, this master will make sure you regret it for the rest of your life.”

    Yikes! What the hell was someone supposed to say to that? Got it, I’ll make sure to control this completely uncontrollable fact of nature? Talk about unfair!

    Shen Yuan transmigrates into a cannon-fodder NPC in an omegaverse version of PIDW. He tries his best to make the most of it—with a few stumbling blocks along the way.

    Look, he doesn’t need to know all the ins and outs of omegaverse customs, right?

    Summary

    Being a Parselmouth came with the inherent predisposition to understand snake behaviours and imitate them. It was relieving Harry wasn’t going to kill anyone with venom, nor petrify them with his gaze. But also, somewhat frustrating as it was all completely useless. None of the skills that came with being a Parselmouth would help Harry survive Voldemort.

    It might, in fact, have the opposite effect. For all Riddle's fury that Harry was the cause of his elder self’s defeat, he was fascinated by the fact Harry was also a Parselmouth. He had grabbed Harry’s face, turning him side to side looking bemusedly enraptured by Harry’s threat display. “At your age, I was imitating much more vicious snakes than this, Harry.”

    That may have been all well and good, but Harry didn’t feel very vicious. He felt very threatened and in over his head.

    Summary

    “Okay—okay, fine. You win,” Harry muttered, sounding as though he’d been struck over the head. “Just…don’t be surprised if this goes nowhere. I’m not as interesting as you think.”

    Hardly relevant, as Tom’s interest lay solely in the man’s wallet. To obtain what he needed, he would tailor himself accordingly.

    Tom smiled, not releasing Harry’s hands as he spoke. “I like you, Harry. Soon, you’ll like me too.”

    Or: Tom’s hunt for his golden goose, and how he came to claim it.
