I hate how people are so into hating jiang cheng wherever the subject is when he’s only being human and not wanting to lose his entire family (what ended up happening btw

imagine try to do everything to keep your family close to you and they DIE in front of you, ONE BY ONE until nothing’s left

I feel so sorry for him and I love him too

If you hate him then you don’t understand the point of the story

OVERTHINKING about ballet dancer lan wangji doing the prince variation of Nutcracker while his boyfriend wei ying plays the song using his flute and admiring the perfect steps that the love of his life executed

- What kind of beautiful sky do you want?

- An orange sky, I guess. And the round shape of the Sun in the middle. Pretty clouds all around it. It would be great to have a rainbow too.

I actually wasn't that broken (thanks to next episode preview and their upcoming hopeful beginning). But this information about rainbow just made a big hole in my heart. Mhok also can't see his perfect picture in real life and can only imagine it. Rung.

[didianxia]

what really gets to me and will probably keep me up at night is that mhok starts crying also because he realizes what he must mean to day. mhok realizes that, after all this time, day has received his love and care in full and and even makes it a part of himself (as the last image he sees). the entire spectrum of his feelings has reached him. and with that, mhok receives day's own feelings, day's own love. it has to be a shattering realization that someone wants your image to be the last one they see. so mhok, who at first didn't have the luxury of thinking he could even be welcomed or trusted by others, is hit with the fact that he is truly, utterly loved by day. and so all he can do is cry.

Waiting for a Choice?

Nobody talks with Day. All of the interviewees talk about him but none of them actually speak to him. Mork was the first one to go back-and-forth with Day by asking him questions, and Mork looks at Day too. When he entered the room, his comments are at Day. Before that, everyone treated Day like a ghost merely haunting the room.

And even though this game of 21-questions is horrible, Mork says the silent part loudly.

Because to Mork, this is all about choices. He believes his sister chose her fate and abandoned him in the end. To him, he had no choice in the matter. She decided their futures for both of them. Even though she is dead, he has spent an entire year not living.

Day's family does this too. Night tells Day they are at the Society when they are already there. It's an afterthought to tell Day where they are going, and he doesn't ask Day if he wants to go in either. It is "where will you wait?" Where will you wait while everyone else goes about their lives? Will you wait here or there? Those are his options. To wait. He is allowed to wait while everyone else lives, but he can't participate.

This is a place for the Blind, yet Day can't go in, and when he does, the receptionist pities him, and his brother gets upset.

By all means, this place should be THE place for Day with its "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you've always wanted" inspirational word vomit, yet all the people stare at him.

Then, on the way home, Day's mother tells Night to speak to Day about the documents even though Day is sitting right there hearing the entire conversation.

Being a caregiver to a family member is extremely difficult. Mostly if animosity already exists.

And even though it's an English translation, the use of "have" is the subtle shift in a family relationship to a caregiver dynamic. A brother has to take care of his younger sibling. A brother now has to rely on his older sibling. Regardless if Night wants to help, he has to. Regardless if Day wants Night's help, he has to take it. They don't have a choice.

When Day exits his car, a point he made to Night, Night hesitates to go after him because they are in the middle of traffic and in the middle of a fight. Yet Mork runs into traffic to get Day, and for the first time in the episode, Day gets asked questions: "Are you okay?" and "Where are you going?"

It hasn't mattered if Day is okay up until now. It hasn't mattered where Day is going because he has to go where he is told. He doesn't have a choice. According to everyone else, he is a living ghost. He has been stuck for a year regardless of what he wants, so even when he gets home, his mother asks him one question without waiting for a response before immediately asking Night what happened.

So Day returns the small gesture of conversation to Mork by asking another living ghost if he has anywhere else to be.

Which jump starts their second game of 21-questions.

Because neither is telling the other what to do. Similar to their first conversation, it's a shit show, but they are both engaged in this shit show. They are not being told to participate. They are not being told what to do. They are being asked questions and they can decide to answer or not. They get to choose. And they chose each other.

Which leads to the mom finally asking Day a question.

Mork is going to be crap at taking care of Day at first, but Day doesn't need someone to take care of him. He needs someone to see him. Day isn't a ghost of his past. He isn't haunting his own story. And he isn't okay. He is unhappy because he has nowhere to go and nothing to look forward to . . . according to the people with lives. He is waiting.

So the guy who is also stuck with ghosts from his past haunting him simply asking questions is enough of a reminder that they are both very much alive, so they must make a choice to actually live.

Which is why Mork asking Day, not his mother or brother, but Day when he starts is very important.

Because these two are stuck in the present with pasts that haunt them. But now they have a future of endless choices.

They just have to ask the right questions.

No, not that!

Much better.

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THIS...

P'Aof, are you telling me that they have come from this...

It's yours. My favourite scent. I think it should match your look today. How? I don't know. It smells like toughness and aggression. At first you want to flee from it. But after you scent it for a while, it makes you feel warm.

to this?

THIS IS WHAT COMES AFTER THIS DIALOGUE?

"I love your scent" "This scent will belong to Day alone"

SO ALL OF THIS...

IS DAY BREATHING MHOK IN?

*head in hands, mind empty*

"this is it. the last image i want to see."

the way mork tries to hold it together, but his lips end up trembling. and when day is so gently holding his face, tracing over his lips, he finally breaks down. he is the one crying, the one mourning day's sight. but day? day is smiling, keeping his eyes on mork's face until everything fades away.

the very last thing he'll ever see is the man he loves. and while it's bittersweet, it makes him happy. because mork is day's last twilight. he'd happily turn to stone and stare at him forever.

[didianxia]

No I’m not okay actually because what do you MEAN Mork spent multiple episodes thinking that he wasn’t a true part of day’s life and keeping himself in the outskirts while he was falling in love with him only for day to turn to him some time later and be like ��you’re the last thing that I want to see before I go completely blind” like. What the hell. What the actual hell-

"there's one more thing I want to do."

I love that Sand is trying so hard to move on but also can't because he sees how much Ray is hurting himself and, at his very core, one of the reasons Sand loves Ray is that Ray needs him. It's the Ray wants to be taken care of and Ray needs to be taken care of and Sand loves that about him. Sand knows he loves that about him and he hates that he loves that about him but he gives in again and again to trying to save him from himself.

But, in the end, it's Sand who leaves with Nick and leaves Ray alone on the couch because he is not going to be trapped by his own heart, he is not going to give knowing that he will get nothing.

Sand might love Ray, but sometimes he doesn't like Ray very much and he is willing to act on that. Which is very, very important.

(Cheum tries to call Ray out as a bad friend but Sand is the one putting in the work to actually help, support and stop Ray from running his own life. Sand sees Ray as a whole person, as the entirety of himself, in a way none of his other friends have ever bothered.)
