Do the Stardust Crusaders prefer an adorable or sexy s/o?(not poly, like what does each member prefer? also i hope this made sense)

Stardust Crusaders and their preferences HC’s

suggestive // gn reader

So this one made me think a little since in my opinion your fave will ALWAYS like you no matter what! So instead of only going by “adorable or sexy” let’s widen it up and delve a bit deeper into their preferences personality wise and style wise :D (ofc u will always be their favourite dw 😌) Kakyoin and Jotaro are kept sfw!! 💖✨

Avdol

Avdol is such a kind and understanding soul but still never afraid to voice his opinion in an earnest manner. He’ll appreciate that sentiment in his partners too, open to many ideas and understanding others’ way of thinking.

He does enjoy someone who’s a bit rowdy or playful to help bring out that side in him. Being silly together and just overall heightening the playful atmosphere really puts him at ease.

That’s the exact reason he secretly loves a little bit of chaos around him. Avdol himself is calm and determined but drama and unexpected events always seem to follow him. Don’t worry though, he loves being able to stride in and show off his abilities he’s so proud of!

Be sure to work on your debate skills though, the man is a whole library of knowledge and if you end up in a discussion he needs you to be able to offer your substantiated opinion. If you talk him into a corner, be sure to soften the blow to his ego with lots of hugs and kisses afterwards 😌

Style-wise the man doesn’t have strong preferences. Earthy tones and a natural flare complement his own style very well though, so he loves a bit of a scholarly look as well. Show up in a long coat and cute glasses carrying some cool old books you’ve found and he might just swoop you off your feet hehe!

If you wear a minimalistic set in the bedroom- think dark burgundy, chocolate, burnt orange, he cannot take his eyes off of you. He’ll treat you like the absolute present you are while he unwraps you 😏

Polnareff

Let this man spoil you for the love of all that is good!!!

He has SO much love to give and he will shower you by the bucketload so you better enjoy his antics! He thrives off of complementing you, albeit with the cheesiest lines, anything to see your cheeks flush. Also expect lots of cute gifts!!

If you’re a bit clumsy, get embarrassed easily and are a bit shy... Polnareff will never let you go, he’s so smitten by the way you stand behind him so often while meeting new people as he chatters away. He’ll pull out his best charming jokes to get you to laugh and when he sees how cute you are trying to hide your smile he’ll come smother you with kisses.

Loves it when you go along with his jokes and impulsive nature but prefers it if you’re a bit more responsible, the man struggles with self control so needs some guidance and someone to hold up the stop signs.

He will also look up to a more dominant person just as much, wanting to make sure he does everything to be on his best behaviour to please you. But he never looses that cheeky side and loves getting reprimanded for it. (not just in the bedroom, daily life as well) So make sure to keep that leash tight ;D!

Ok as much as I hate to say it... this man’s style tastes can be a bit tacky. If you like pink he’d love to see you in anything cutesy and frilly, perhaps to a worrying degree. Be sure to gently steer him to your own choices, he’ll forget all about his own ideas if you show a bit of skin anyways. This man is too easy to distract for his own good 🙄

Oldseph (forgive me Suzy Q 🙏)

Because he is the way he is *sigh*, he loves being yelled at for his antics. Joseph will never stop acting like a child no matter his age, that youthful sparkle always present even as he has started to take life a lot more serious.

Boss him around a little too much and he’ll pick you up just to smirk at you until you shut up. Eye-rolls are the dead give away that you like him and he’ll gladly accept them along with the annoyed sighs.

If you reside on the other side of the spectrum- playful and offering a childlike wonder too, he’ll take it all the way. Everyday is a silly playdate, joking around, showing off, any way to impress you and pull you along into the fun.

He LOVES vintage clothes, the fifties are his favourite era style wise and adores it when you dress the part. Joseph ain’t no chump so he’ll always offer to pay the deft fees of authentic vintage pieces. Hell, he’ll even fly you overseas if there happens to be a special item on sale that you’ve been eyeing.

Just like Polnareff, he loves to spoil you. Indulging your every need, even when you’re grumpy or mad at him. It’s his life’s goal to make those droopy corners shoot upwards with his dumb jokes and antics.

Stroll up in nothing but stockings and garters and he’s dead. Good job you killed the un-killable Joestar! But before his soul ascends the mortal plane he’ll ravish you, sure to buy you a new pair that’s even prettier.

Jotaro

As we all know this edgy dude doesn’t love loud annoying people. But here’s a secret he’ll never audibly let slip: if he sees you holding yourself back, trying not to be “too” much of anything he might not like... that next yare yare is him admitting he doesn’t mind it, as long as you don’t start yelling. He’ll actually enjoy your excitement, quietly of course, sure not to let others onto his amusement of your cuteness.

If you share his interests (marine biology, reading, nature in general) he’ll feel a bit more inclined to talk about them, just a smidge. Jotaro enjoys listening to you talk about your passions though, even if they differ from his. That intent stare taking in the way your eyes sparkle, that cute smile making butterflies flutter in his stomach.

Even though he loves going on walks, admiring nature and inhaling the fresh air, he is a secret homebody and would love it if you shared the sentiment. Lounging on the couch in comfy clothes, quietly enjoying each other’s presence while doing your own things, just basking in the shared space.

Since this is SDC Jotaro, he’s in the early stages of his love for showing off his accessories and he likes it when you do too. Just a couple of small hints at your likes through cute pins or a small chains.

He likes to be stylish but is by no means that into fashion, he knows what he likes and sticks to that. But if you’re a bit more of a fashionista he’ll share his opinions on louder outfits that attract a lot of attention. Just don’t take it too personal, he means well 😬

Likes you best in your comfortable pj’s, wrapped up like a cute burrito in a dolphin blanket 🥰

Kakyoin

As much as the jokes get made, if you’re the mom friend, he’s constantly trying to do right by you. A doting nature that still lets him be independent will make him go 🥰😍!!

Love and kindness towards others is so endearing to him, and if you’re not afraid to speak your mind openly, he might have to confess his love right this minute. He won’t be shy in letting his liking for you show either, offering charming jokes and compliments whenever you’re near.

And if you share his dry genZmemer humour, gently starting to drop hints that you’re not afraid to be a bit edgy you become his ultimate favourite person.

Because of his introverted nature, he likes someone who is a bit more independent as well, offering yourselves time and a comfortable pace to move in throughout the relationship.

He also greatly admires a strong need for justice and loyalty to a cause, it shows integrity and intelligence. That fiery passion in your eyes invigorates him just as much!

Kakyoin loves elegance and something that complements your features, no matter what style. He does have a bit of a thing for having matching colour palettes or at least ones that complement each other.

Cool gem tones are his favourite; emerald, ruby, sapphire...the list goes on.

At home though...get him a random shirt with a ridiculous slogan or phrase and he’ll wear it till it’s barely hanging on by a thread. Make him one too, a plain white shirt with a scribbly drawn frog or a meme-y phrase! He’ll wear it forever, being reminded of his love for you every time he laughs at the visual 😊

Playful (Royal AU) - K. Sunwoo

[Requested by @prinxessouo] Hello! 🥰❤ Just came across your blog and was wondering if I can request a royal au scenario? Something like you're a princess and he's a prince and you meet at a ball and it's love at first sight or smth ♡ I seriously can't choose between Hyunjae, Juyeon and Sunwoo so could you just choose the one you think suits the best, please? 🥺❤ Thanks in advance and have a lovely day! ♡

Summary - it’s your first ball as the princess of your country. Thousands of people came from around the world to see you. You were also to meet the prince you were to marry in the future. Little did you know that you would meet a mysterious handsome man named Sunwoo in the process...

Warnings - None, I think.

Genre - Fluff

A/N: Hello! I also had a hard time choosing, because they’re all so perfect for this scenario. I chose Sunwoo because he seemed like a bit of a challenge to be put in a position of a prince (idk if that makes sense lol, just a feeling). Please request more! This was very fun to write, I hope you enjoy!

Powder and perfume overwhelmed your senses as you stood at the mirror, staring at your own reflection. Your eyes traced your perfect hair, not one strand out of place. Still, you searched for a flaw. Your dress was also perfect. It was chosen by you, made by the most talented tailors from around the world. Your shoes were slightly uncomfortable. That was all you could complain about.

They had kept you secluded from society for so long. The country knew you existed, but they hadn’t gotten the privilege of really seeing you, not after the incident with your older brother. He had lost the respect of the country, and was therefore banished when you were very young. You were never meant to have this high position, but here you were. The future queen.

Thousands of people flocked to see you tonight. If you only glanced outside your window you would become much too overwhelmed to handle the amount of attention awaiting you. You were nervous, understandably. You had never seen more than ten people at once, and now you have thousands begging to have, if only, a moment with you.

This was also the night you were to meet the prince you had been promised to. You knew you were to be married off for political reasons your entire life, and you trusted your parents to choose well, so you were not bothered by it. You had never seen his face, though.

You didn’t want to be shallow, but some part of you hoped he would be handsome. You cannot count the amount of times you had tried to imagine his face. You hoped he would smell good, that he would have soft skin, and that he would have a kind smile. Those were the three things you always considered when you thought of him.

“Honey?” Your mother walked into the room, also dressed to perfection. “It’s time to go down.”

She walked up behind you as you continued to observe yourself in the mirror. She could see that you were nervous, so she held your hand tightly.

“You will be doing this more often from now on,” She said softly beside your ear. “It will get easier.”

Usually advice does not help nerves too much. Sometimes it can actually make it worse. However, knowing all that your mother has gone through, it comforted you greatly. You smiled at her in the reflection.

“You look beautiful,” You told her. “I think I like your dress better.”

“Oh, stop. That color is perfect on you. Let’s go before we’re late.”

You followed your mother out of your room, through the wide corridor, and down the steps. Guards were at every corner, guaranteeing your safety. It made you feel simultaneously safe and uneasy. The fact that you even needed guards always made you feel strange. You wondered if they were there only to protect you or to make sure you don’t do anything... reckless. Like your brother.

The two of you reached the doors leading to the ballroom. Loud chattering and music filtered through the cracks in the door. It was exciting and overwhelming. The guards at the door awaited the signal to open the doors. Of course, you had to be introduced.

“...Princess (Y/N) and Queen (Y/M/N)!” You heard as the doors were pulled open with force.

The ballroom was full of all different kinds of people. Your curiosity left you a step behind your mother, who had to pull you forward slightly. You scanned all the faces of the people there. You could tell that for many of them, this was also their first ball. You smiled at the children who looked up at you in awe.

As you got closer to the front of the room where your father, the king, and your siblings stood, someone caught your eye. He was quite tall, at least, he was significantly taller than you. He had dark hair and the most handsome face you had ever seen before. Well, it wasn’t like you had seen very many faces at all. He stood out from the crowd as if there was a spotlight placed on him. He looked at you with an expression you could only describe as awe. When he saw you looking at him as well, he smiled.

You thought you could collapse from the intense feeling in your stomach and chest. You were nervous and excited at the same time. The feelings confused you, but you enjoyed it, anyway. You smiled back. It was a small smile, a flirtatious smile you had seen your cousins flash the boys who lived and worked in the castle before. You internally thanked your parents for forcing you to hang out with them, despite your distaste for your cousins in general.

You quickly looked forward, at your family. You stood up next to them and turned towards the crowd, just like you had been taught. Your father said a few words to the people, but you weren’t listening. Your mind was on that boy in the crowd. The one you avoided looking at in order to feign confidence for a few moments.

Once your father had finished speaking, the ball roared back to life. Hundreds of people moved in time with the music, causing a wave of incredible movement to occur right in the middle of the large room. Women went back to their conversations with glasses of alcohol in their hands. Servants continued to pass around food platters, slipping in and out of the room quietly. Children ran around, avoiding the watchful eyes of their parents. Men fell over themselves to get a glimpse of your father. You searched the room secretly for the man from before, but he seemed to have escaped your gaze. He must have slipped away while you were trying to be cool.

Great, now I lost him. You groaned internally.

It doesn’t matter, anyway. You’re promised to another. You straightened your posture and directed your attention back to the organized chaos surrounding you. You were waiting for someone to ask you to dance.

“Y/N!” A voice called from the crowd. You searched for the owner of the familiar voice that had called your name. “Y/N?”

There she was, right in front of you. Your childhood best friend. You had not seen her since the doors of the castle had been closed. You could barely contain your happiness to see her.

“Y/F/N!” You said, you swore you felt tears threatening to fall from your eyes. You restrained yourself from giving her a giant hug in front of everyone. “I can’t believe you’re here!”

“I know, right!” She looked at you with fond eyes, taking in the fact that you had grown so much. She had as well. “You look so beautiful!”

“So do you!” You laughed.

“Care to dance?” She bowed, playfully. You looked over at your parents, asking for permission silently. They both nodded. It had been a long time since they had seen you so happy, so they allowed you to have a bit of fun.

You took her hand and she walked you to the middle of the room where people were dancing energetically. Your friend twirled you dramatically, occasionally bumping into the older couples around you. No one was bothered, though. They enjoyed the youthful energy the two of you possessed.

After a few minutes, the music slowed down. Your friend pulled you into a slow dance to talk a bit. You two have a lot of catching up to do.

“So, how have you been?” You asked her.

“Not bad. I’ve missed you terribly, though,” She looked up at you with sad eyes. “I can’t believe I missed growing up with you.”

“I know...” The pang in your chest would not let up. It hurt you so much to be separated from your best friend. She was more your sister than any of your real sisters. You were inconsolable when you were told you would never see her again.

Thankfully, it was untrue, though. “But at least we can see each other now. We never have to be separated ever again. If anything ever happens, I’ll make you live here with me,” You said to her.

She lightened up a bit, laughing through her tears threatening to spill over her powdered cheeks. “Hey, don’t look but there’s an insanely handsome guy coming over to us.”

You tensed up a bit and despite your better judgement, you looked.

You caught him just as he reached the two of you. He smiled a bit awkwardly at the two of you. “Uh, Princess Y/N, can I have the next dance?” He asked.

You stared up at his handsome features, almost entranced by them. Your friend quickly answered for you, “She would be honored.”

Your friend let go of your hands, walking towards your siblings to speak to them while you danced with the (basically) perfect man.

He put his hand out for you to take it as the music changed. You were unaware of the fact that everyone in the room who was not dancing had turned to watch you two. Even your parents watched as he guided you further into the center of the room, placing one of his hands on your waist, the other holding your hand. You placed your free hand on his shoulder.

He’s strong. You thought to yourself. You felt him guide you through the dance moves. You had done them hundreds of times before in your dance classes, but they had been with your younger brothers or your cousins. This was entirely different. You could barely allow yourself to look up at his face, so you kept your eyes trained above his shoulder, staring into the distance.

“You look beautiful,” He said softly beside your ear, sending shivers down your spine.

“Thank you,” Your cheeks heated up. You glanced at him, seeing that he had been looking at your face this whole time. “You look very handsome.”

He chuckled, looking around the room for a second before returning his attention to you. “I’ve waited to meet you for a long time.”

“Really?” You turned back to look outside the grand windows. “I get that a lot, you know... as the princess.” You were only teasing.

“Ah, yes, of course, your highness,” he laughed again. You felt his breath on your skin. “I’m sure I’m a bit different from everyone, right?”

“What makes you say that?” You look into his deep brown eyes.

“I don’t know...” He turns the two of you quickly, causing a giggle to escape from you as you held onto him tighter. “Just a feeling?” He flashed a wide smile at you.

“What’s your name?” You asked him through laughs.

“Sunwoo. Kim Sunwoo.”

It sounded familiar, but you ignored the feeling quickly. “Nice to meet you, Kim Sunwoo.”

“Nice to meet you, too Y/N Y/L/N.”

“No one calls me that,” You laughed at him.

“Can I?”

“You can call me whatever you like,” Your gaze softened on his face, and you were suddenly hyper aware of his lips.

“Excuse me, Princess,” A man approached from your left. “May I have the next dance?”

He had the look of someone who was about to bore you to death with talks of politics. You couldn’t reasonably refuse, however, so you had to say goodbye to Sunwoo. He bowed and kissed your hand, holding onto it for a bit longer than what may be considered normal.

As you danced with a few other men, you couldn’t muster the strength to really listen to what they were saying. Your mind was on Sunwoo. You couldn’t get his eyes, or his hands, or the feeling of his breath on you out of your head. You were thankful when the music stopped and you were able to return to your family.

When your mother saw you approaching them, she smiled widely at you. She pulled you close to her while holding both of your hands. Your best friend also neared the two of you, clearly ecstatic about something you were not privy to.

“Are you ready?” Your mother asks you, smoothing out bits of your hair and dress that had fallen out of place as you were dancing.

“Ready?” You questioned.

“To meet him! The prince!” Your friend said from beside your mother.

You had entirely forgot about that, especially while dancing with Sunwoo. Well, it was fun while it lasted. “Oh, yes. I think so.”

Your mother guided you to the left corner of the room, where a group of men and women had gathered around your father and a young man who was hidden by the heads between you two. You took a deep breath. I guess Sunwoo was practice for the real thing. Maybe I should be thankful-

Your internal monologue was cut off when you saw exactly who was having such an interesting conversation with your father.

“Sunwoo!” Your mother called out. “It’s so wonderful to finally see you again after all these years. How you’ve grown into such a handsome gentleman!”

“It’s nice to see you too,” He looked over at you with a teasing smile.

“Well, this is Y/N,” Your mother pushed you forward, right in front of Sunwoo. “You two should start getting to know each other.”

“Hi again,” He chuckled at you.

“You knew this whole time?”

“I thought you were playing, too!” He said. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to deceive you.”

You sighed. “So...”

“Would you like to go outside?” He asks, putting his hand out for you to hold once more. “It’ll be easier to speak to you without so much noise,” he leans closer to you, whispering in your ear: “and without so many watchful eyes.”

You glanced over your shoulder, finally noticing the fact that everyone in the room had turned to watch the two of you. You turned back to Sunwoo. “I’d love to.”

He held your hand as you two walked off to be alone. The confused onlookers watched as he guided you outside, to the garden. You didn’t pay them mind, though. All you felt was his strong hand holding yours. The broad night sky welcoming you two under it’s protection. It was a night you would certainly remember forever.

Book of Jin 60: Biography of Zhang Fang

張方，河間人也。世貧賤，以材勇得��于河間王顒，累遷兼振武將軍。永寧中，顒表討齊王冏，遣方領兵二萬為前鋒。及冏被長沙王乂所殺，顒及成都王穎復表討乂，遣方率眾自函谷人屯河南。惠帝遣左將軍皇甫商距之，方以潛軍破商之眾，遂入城。乂奉帝討方於城內，方軍望見乘輿，於是小退，方止之不得，眾遂大敗，殺傷滿於衢巷。方退壁於十三里橋，人情挫衄，無復固志，多勸方夜遁。方曰：「兵之利鈍是常，貴因敗以為成耳。我更前作壘，出其不意，此用兵之奇也。」乃夜潛進逼洛城七里。乂既新捷，不以為意，忽聞方壘成，乃出戰，敗績。東海王越等執乂，送于金墉城。方使郅輔取乂還營，炙殺之。於是大掠洛中官私奴婢萬餘人，而西還長安。顒加方右將軍、馮翊太守。

Zhang Fang was a native of Hejian commandary. He came from a poor family, but thanks to his talents and his boldness, he won the favor of the Prince of Hejian, Sima Yong, and he rose in office to become General Who Displays Valor.

During the Yongning era (301), Sima Yong petitioned to campaign against the Prince of Qi, Sima Jiong, and he sent Zhang Fang to lead twenty thousand soldiers forward as a vanguard.

After Sima Jiong was killed by the Prince of Changsha, Sima Ai, Sima Yong and the Prince of Chengdu, Sima Ying, then petitioned to campaign against Sima Ai. Sima Yong sent Zhang Fang to lead an army from Hangu to camp at Henan. Emperor Hui sent the General of the Left, Huangfu Shang, to oppose Zhang Fang. But Zhang Fang routed his army with a hidden army, then entered the walls of Luoyang.

Sima Ai brought Emperor Hui with him to attack Zhang Fang within the walls of Luoyang. When Zhang Fang's army saw that the imperial carriage was present, they began to fall back. Zhang Fang tried to stop them, but to no avail, and his army was greatly defeated, with the dead and wounded filling the streets and alleys of the city.

Zhang Fang retreated to his rampart at Thirteen Li Bridge. His soldiers, sapped of morale, had no heart for further resistance, and many urged Zhang Fang to flee during the night. But Zhang Fang replied, "It is the fate of soldiers to know both victory and defeat. I need only turn this defeat into a success. We shall instead advance and build a new fortification, to catch the enemy unawares. This is the genius of using soldiers." So during the night, Zhang Fang secretly advanced to threaten Luoyang from within seven li of the city. Since Sima Ai had just won a victory over Zhang Fang, he believed there was nothing left to fear from him. But when Sima Ai suddenly heard that Zhang Fang had completed these ramparts, he marched out to fight him, but was defeated.

The Prince of Donghai, Sima Yue, and others arrested Sima Ai and sent him to the Jinyong fortress. Zhang Fang sent Zhi Fu to get Sima Ai and bring him back to his own camp, where he burned Sima Ai to death.

Zhang Fang greatly plundered Luoyang, kidnapping more than ten thousand public and private slave girls, before returning west to Chang'an.

Sima Yong promoted Zhang Fang to be General of the Right and Administrator of Pingyi.

蕩陰之役，顒又遣方鎮洛陽，上官已、苗願等距之，大敗而退。清河王覃夜襲已、願，已、願出奔，方乃入洛陽。覃于廣陽門迎方而拜，方馳下車扶止之。於是復廢皇后羊氏。及帝自鄴還洛，方遣息羆以三千騎奉迎。將渡河橋，方又以所乘陽燧車、青蓋素升三百人為小鹵簿，迎帝至芒山下。方自帥萬餘騎奉雲母輿及旌旗之飾，衛帝而進。初，方見帝將拜，帝下車自止之。

During the Dangyin campaign (Sima Yue's march against Sima Ying at Ye in 304, culminating in the battle of Dangyin), Sima Yong once again sent Zhang Fang to guard Luoyang. Shangguan Yi, Miao Yuan, and others opposed him, but they were defeated and fled. The Prince of Qinghe, Sima Tan, launched a surprise attack against Shangguan Yi and Miao Yuan during the night, causing them to flee. Zhang Fang then entered Luoyang. Sima Tan met him at the Guanghan Gate and saluted him. Zhang Fang got down off his carriage and stopped Sima Tan. He deposed Empress Yang once again.

When Emperor Hui returned to Luoyang from Ye, Zhang Fang sent his son Zhang Pi with an escort of three thousand cavalry to welcome them. When the imperial party was about to cross the bridge over the Yellow River, Zhang Fang further sent them a light-catching chariot with green canopies and three hundred servants to accompany the chariot. Zhang Fang himself welcomed Emperor Hui beneath the Mang Hills. Zhang Fang led more than ten thousand cavalry and brought along a mica carriage and banners and flags, and he protected Emperor Hui as they advanced. When Zhang Fang first saw Emperor Hui, he was about to perform obeisance, but Emperor Hui descended from his carriage and stopped him.

方在洛既久，兵士暴掠，發哀獻皇女墓。軍人喧喧，無復留意，議欲西遷，尚匿其跡，欲須天子出，因劫移都。乃請帝謁廟，帝不許。方遂悉引兵入殿迎帝，帝見兵至，避之于竹林中，軍人引帝出，方於馬上稽首曰：「胡賊縱逸，宿衛單少，陛下今日幸臣壘，臣當捍禦寇難，致死無二。」於是軍人便亂入宮閣，爭割流蘇武帳而為馬帴。方奉帝至弘農，顒遣司馬周弼報方，欲廢太弟，方以為不可。

By now, Zhang Fang had been at Luoyang for a long time; his soldiers had greatly pillaged the region, even digging up the grave of Princess Xian'ai. They were all restless, none wanting to remain in Luoyang any longer, so they discussed going back west. In order to provide a pretext for this, Zhang Fang wanted to wait for Emperor Hui to expose himself so he could force him to move the capital. So he asked Emperor Hui to go pay his respects at the Ancestral Temple, but Emperor Hui refused. Then Zhang Fang sent his soldiers into the palace to fetch Emperor Hui. When Emperor Hui saw they were coming, he hid from them among the bamboo, but the soldiers brought him back out. From horseback, Zhang Fang kowtowed to Emperor Hui and said, "The invaders and bandits are spread thickly, and the household guards are too few here. I invite Your Majesty to view my ramparts today. I shall do my utmost to guard against invaders or other difficulties; I will not shrink even from death."

Zhang Fang's soldiers rushed into the palace and forbidden chambers and caused chaos; they fought with one another as they cut up all the flowing ornaments and martial banners to use as reins for their horses.

Zhang Fang escorted Emperor Hui to Hongnong commandary. Sima Yong sent his Marshal, Zhou Bi, to report to Zhang Fang, expressing his belief that Sima Ying should be deposed from his position as Crown Younger Brother. But Zhang Fang felt that this could not be done.

帝至長安，以方為中領軍、錄尚書事，領京兆太守。時豫州刺史劉喬檄稱潁川太守劉輿迫脅范陽王虓距逆詔命，及東海王越等起兵于山東，乃遣方率步騎十萬往討之。方屯兵霸上，而劉喬為虓等所破。顒聞喬敗，大懼，將罷兵，恐方不從，遲疑未決。

When Emperor Hui arrived at Chang'an, Zhang Fang was appointed as General Who Leads The Army of the Center, chief of affairs of the Masters of Writing, and acting Administrator of Jingzhao.

At this time, the Inspector of Yuzhou, Liu Qiao, sent out proclamations claiming that the Administrator of Yingchuan, Liu Yu, had compelled and beguiled the Prince of Fanyang, Sima Xiao, to violate the imperial will. Meanwhile, the Prince of Donghai, Sima Yue, and others rose up with troops east of the mountains. So Sima Yong sent Zhang Fang to lead a hundred thousand horse and foot to campaign against Sima Yue's coalition.

Zhang Fang camped his troops at Bashang, but then Liu Qiao was routed by Sima Xiao and the others. When Sima Yong heard that Liu Qiao had been defeated, he was greatly afraid. He wanted to disband his soldiers, but he was afraid that Zhang Fang would not go along with it, so he had still not made a decision.

初，方從山東來，甚微賤，長安富人郅輔厚相供給。及貴，以輔為帳下督，甚昵之。顒參軍畢垣，河間冠族，為方所侮，忿而說顒曰：「張方久屯霸上，聞山東賊盛，盤桓不進，宜防其未萌。其親信郅輔具知其謀矣。」而繆播等先亦構之，顒因使召輔，垣迎說輔曰：「張方欲反，人謂卿知之。王若問卿，何辭以對？」輔驚曰：「實不聞方反，為之若何？」垣曰：「王若問卿，但言爾爾。不然，必不免禍。」輔既入，顒問之曰：「張方反，卿知之乎？」輔曰：「爾。」顒曰：「遣卿取之可乎？」又曰：「爾。」顒於是使輔送書于方，因令殺之。輔既昵于方，持刀而入，守閣者不疑，因火下發函，便斬方頭。顒以輔為安定太守。初繆播等議斬方，送首與越，冀東軍可罷。及聞方死，更爭入關，顒頗恨之，又使人殺輔。

At the beginning of Zhang Fang's career, when he had first come to Chang'an from east of the mountains, he had been desperately poor. A rich man of Chang'an, Zhi Fu, had favored Zhang Fang and provided him with things that he needed. In turn, after Zhang Fang became an honored person, he employed Zhi Fu as a Commander of his personal tent and greatly favored him.

One of Sima Yong's Army Advisors, Bi Yuan, came from one of the leading families of Hejian commandary. He had once suffered harm because of Zhang Fang. So he now took the opportunity to advise Sima Yong, "Zhang Fang has been camped at Bashang for a long time. Even hearing about the great movements of the soldiers east of the mountains, Zhang Fang still lingers and does not advance. He is plotting something, and you should provide against it. His trusted fellow Zhi Fu knows about his plot."

Mou Bo and others had also slandered Zhang Fang as well. So Sima Yong sent someone to summon Zhi Fu. When Zhi Fu arrived, Bi Yuan welcomed him (before he could meet with Sima Yong) and said to him, "Zhang Fang is planning to rebel, and people say that you know about it. If the Prince asks you about it, what do you plan to say?"

Zhi Fu, astonished, replied, "I truly have heard nothing about Zhang Fang rebelling. How could that be?"

Bi Huan said, "If the Prince asks you about it, you must tell him, 'Indeed, indeed.' Otherwise, you will not escape disaster."

Zhi Fu was then brought in to see Sima Yong, who asked him, "Zhang Fang plans to rebel; do you know about it?"

Zhi Fu replied, "Indeed."

Sima Yong continued, "If I send you to deal with him, can you do it?"

Zhi Fu again replied, "Indeed."

So Sima Yong sent Zhi Fu to visit Zhang Fang's camp bearing a letter from Sima Yong, so that Zhi Fu would have an opportunity to kill Zhang Fang. Since Zhi Fu enjoyed Zhang Fang's favor, even when he entered Zhang Fang's tent bearing a sword, the guards did not suspect anything. When Zhi Fu gave Zhang Fang the letter, Zhang Fang moved under the fire to open the envelope, and Zhi Fu then cut off his head. Sima Yong appointed him as Administrator of Anding.

Earlier, Mou Bo and others had proposed that Sima Yong should behead Zhang Fang, then send his head to Sima Yue, hoping that this act would convince the coalition east of the mountains to disband their armies. But instead, when they heard that Zhang Fang was dead, they all raced one another to enter Guanzhong. Sima Yong regretted what he had done, and he beheaded Zhi Fu.

Mabinogi Drama: Graterilsi vs Ruricy vs Milktea7 vs Prudentia - Extended version

2020 UPDATE:

I have been informed that one person involved in this drama has been arrested and incarcerated. Faith has been using his guild, Prudentia, to target young girls for sexual abuse. Obviously I condemn this piece of shit and I regret not calling him a lying gaslighting piece of shit when I had the chance.

The current officer of Prudentia has accused me of calling all his victims “tainted”, which is complete nonsense. All I had said was that I refuse to recommend any other guild from now on (except the one led by EC’s former leader) because I don’t know which ones will turn out to be secretly run by pedos like Prudentia. He claims this is proof that I deem all the girls to be “tainted” and that “it’s not fair because they’re trying so hard” to reclaim the guild name and remove the associations with Faith.

I will say that I do believe that the name Prudentia and guild entity itself is tainted with Faith’s pedo-shitbaggery. He made and used that guild to abuse minors. He was so proud of that guild and always signed his posts as their leader, even during times when he wasn’t actually the in-game leader. I can’t imagine why the current management is trying so hard to maintain a guild that has become his pedo legacy. None of that means that I blame his victims in any way. They did a fantastic job of bringing him to justice and I applaud that.

This officer has a history of misinterpreting everything I say in the most negative way possible and while I try to be lenient towards ESL* speakers, I’m quite convinced that it’s intentional malice at this point. There will be no more diplomacy with Prudentia, new management or not.

*he’s Serbian and it’s not like his English is poor enough to actually be used as an excuse anyway

The original drama write up is preserved below.

================

Hey Alexina server!

If you know me, you probably know me as Eralea. A small subset of you, however, may know me as Naryador - longtime active member and current leader of Elvencrusade.

The drama mentioned in the title of this post occurred partially in my guild discord server, and is how I ended up taking up the leadership position (cleaning up all their fallout - thanks, ladies!)

You may have seen this FB post from Graterilsi/Aisha/Donna/Daphne/whatever name she’s going by now (she changes it as often as she changes her fashionogi). You may also have seen this response from Ruricy/Daisy/Yuno. For the most part, their stories mostly focus on the followup weeks and only vaguely allude to the explosive drama directly preceding the part where Ruricy gets Aisha locked up.

I’m here to tell that prequel story. This dates back to late last year, blowing up on the 11th of Dec 2018.

Elvencrusade and Prudentia had been guild allies for most of the year at that point - the officers from Prudentia were taking a more active role in the alliance by joining the Elvencrusade guild server. What none of them knew was that there was an undercurrent of hostility among the Elvencrusade members the entire time they were there, centered around one individual called Milktea7.

MILKTEA7 VS PRUDENTIA

Milktea7 was not in Elvencrusade. He was friends with many of the guild members, so he was allowed in the server as a guild ally. He also had previous drama with one of the officers of Prudentia, which led him to have a bad reputation with many of their members. His friends sided with him, obviously, and they were out to get the Prudentians.

Every day, every single day, Elvencrusade management would hear Aisha demanding in voice chat to “kick out the Prudentia spies”, “block them from all the channels”, “ban all the naive bitches”. Ruricy would report back from outings with Aisha, saying that she’d spent the day complaining about them and gossiping about their past dramas.

This happened throughout the entire two months we had the Prudentian officers as guests in our server. We attempted to explain that we were allies with them, we tried to compromise by limiting them to only the public channels - nada. None of it was satisfactory enough for the Aisha and Milktea7 faction.

(It should be noted that the Prudentia members are not entirely innocent in all this - they would also nag us to break ties with Milktea7, telling us to just kick him out of the server, asking us why were we associating with such a toxic person. They’d send us complaints about him, as if he was part of our guild. PSA: Milktea7 was never part of Elvencrusade, please send your complaints to his actual guild and actual guild leader, thanks.)

Kicking Milktea7 out at this point would have greatly destabilised the guild, given that many core members at the time were openly siding with Milktea7 and believed that the Prudentia girls were intentionally provoking him to get a reaction out of him. On the other hand, select members of management (actually mostly Ruricy) was friendly with Prudentia and didn’t want to upset them either.

In hindsight, trying to please all these ticking time bombs was a mistake, because they were going to explode eventually.

RURICY AND AISHA LIGHT THE FUSE

On that fateful day, we received a request from Prudentia: They wanted us to allow their other officer into our guild server - the one who previously had drama with Milktea7. Elvencrusade guild management agreed that this was a definitely a no-go and that we would quietly and politely decline their request, given past history and current tensions.

For some reason, Ruricy didn’t pick up on the part about declining their request, and immediately goes to Aisha, saying “GOOD NEWS! [drama officer] is joining EC!!”

This provokes Aisha to go into the VC to repeat to everyone that [drama officer] was joining the guild (she wasn’t), starting a massive wave of FUD among the members. Aisha was threatening to leave the guild and start her own guild and server “without any bitches and spies in it”. Some people were freaking out and saying they didn’t know what Elvencrusade management were up to, forcing them to get along with these “spies”. Other people started telling stories about [drama officer]’s past scandals.

Amidst all this chaos, a different officer of Prudentia chooses this unfortunate moment to enter the VC. Milktea7 immediately flames her and accuses her of snooping, and everyone leaves the channel. Aisha requests that I set up a VC that was limited only to guild members, because those horrible untrustworthy spies were intruding on private discussions.

Meanwhile, Faith, the leader of Prudentia, was DMing me to complain about his officer-girlfriend being abused in the Elvencrusade VC, as well as to get to the bottom of the whole drama. While I was trying to explain the situation to him, I suddenly hear Aisha saying in the new guild-only VC that “Nary is talking to Prudentia, she’s taking their side!”.

See, Faith had assured me that the discussion about the drama would be limited to only the members of management within both guilds. Aisha was not a member of Elvencrusade management, for very good reason - she’s a drama-monger. She’s quick to throw fits and spread stories of questionable veracity. And given that she was the one person who was demanding the ousting of Prudentia the most, she was the absolute last person who should be hearing about it. Faith explained to me that she was their friend IRL and that she was in that VC, so of course they were talking to her about it.

This is the point where I realised Aisha had been two-faced towards the Prudentians the entire time - pretending to be their friend IRL and in DMs, while turning around and screeching in the VC every day to demand they be kicked out of the server. I also suddenly understood why she had been referring to them as “naive bitches” all this while.

I opted not to alert Faith and the rest of Prudentia about this. He believed that Aisha was his friend, and he was likely to take her word over mine, anyway. Honestly, it’s not my problem, and I don’t really care if she wants to play them all like fools. My problem was that she (and Milktea7) was bringing their drama into my guild and causing a rift between the members.

(Side story: This wasn’t even the first time Aisha brought Prudentia-related drama into the Elvencrusade server. We had previously been unwilling witnesses to a Prudentia vs Movimentum argument that she was fanning the flames of. Like, seriously, can you guys not use us as a battleground? FFS)

THE FALLOUT

When I woke up the next morning, I was informed that Ruricy had a psychotic freakout, tried to force Aisha to pick between herself and Milktea7, and then finally called the cops on Aisha.

That story is told elsewhere and I’m sure everyone has already enjoyed most of it anyway.

I would like to point out that no one in Elvencrusade has been “tortured” by Milktea7 - that’s all in her head. The reason she accused us of not acknowledging her pain is because no one else would agree with her about him “torturing” people. (As far as I can tell, he “tortured” her by telling her that her boyfriend is manipulating her and by being rude to said boyfriend.)

He is an entertaining jackass, however, I’ll give you that.

I’m sure Ruricy will type out another outrageously long response to this post, so I’m going to say this now - I can’t be bothered arguing with whatever insane bullshit you come up with this time.

No, seriously. You drag people into a whirlpool of nonsense and then conclude something completely different from what people are saying. You were the sweetest person ever 99% of the time you were in Elvencrusade, and then all this happened and you revealed your hidden psycho bitch to us. It’s really telling when, despite all the awful backstabbing shit Aisha has done, everyone in the guild still sides with her over you. All these other people who don’t know the real you might fall for your manipulation, but I’m not making that mistake any more.

I also know exactly what Aisha is going to say in response to this too - she’s going to say that Nary broke her trust again. No, babe, you broke my trust when you created a huge pile of lies and bullshit for me to clean up. I know you’ve been telling a highly dramatised one-sided version of this story in Viper’s circle. Did you tell them your role as the poisonous snake? I doubt it. Make no mistake - I was fucking worried sick when you were locked up and I side with you when it comes to how Ruri treated you, but you need to stop causing me so much damn trouble.

Milktea7 has since left the guild discord server and threw a fit when I refused to let him back in. He doesn’t seem to understand that this is his own mistake - his drama caused the guild to split, and most of his friends had left to form their own guild. There is very little support for him within the remaining and new members. I know you’re reading this, Milk - it’s entirely your own fault if the majority wants to keep you out.

Last but not least, Ruricy had the conceit to believe that Elvencrusade would disband after she left. (HAHAHAHAHAHAH) She was also wrong about that - we’re still here and still active.

If you’re looking for friends and would like to join in on mafia, food debates and karaoke night, pop an application at the guild stone at the Filia Moon Gate. We run nightly Girg raids at 8pm Sydney time and the occasional black dragon spam. Guild rules: No drama-mongers and no using general chat as a battlefield. I’ll cut you 💚
