How their encounter with the 212th went
Crosshair: Cody, what are you doing tomorrow?
Cody: Having my day ruined by whatever you’re about to ask me to do.
Obi-Wan: Let's all agree that going up the stairs on all fours is actually the best experience on earth.
Wrecker: Conversely, going down the stairs on all fours is actually the most terrifying experience on earth.
Obi-Wan: Tech won’t come out of his room!
Wrecker: Just tell them I said something.
Obi-Wan: Like what?
Wrecker: Anything factually incorrect.
Obi-Wan, shrugging: If you say so.
Tech, arriving moments later: Did you just say that suns are PLANETS?
Hunter: You’re drunk.
Obi-Wan: Correction: drinking. Present tense. Grammar, Hunter.
Obi-Wan, hungover: Please tell me I'm imagining that I claimed I was king of the ducks.
Cody: I would, but then I would be lying to the King of All Ducks.
Obi-Wan: You shoot like a straight person.
Crosshair: That’s literally the worst thing anyone has ever said about me.
Obi-Wan: Sometimes I get so caught up on being gay that I forget I’m actually bi.
Obi-Wan: I’m quick at math.
Tech: Ok, what’s 38 times 76?
Obi-Wan: 24.
Tech: That wasn’t even close.
Obi-Wan: But it was quick.

a little light went on
…Well, at least for Jackson Wang it did.
The general consensus is that Jackson should be eating his words. Or at least taking the time to reflect on what he said at that concert in London. The situation was so polarizing and made me think, “Why? Why did he decide to do that?”
But this isn’t about his actions weeks ago. This is about what people have noticed. They say he doesn’t look happy and that his drinking problem is so sad to see. He actually admitted to it. Yet, in the divide of his fans, some defend it saying he doesn’t necessarily have a drinking problem while others say he, in fact, does have a drinking. And regardless of what I think, I believe it’s a little weird how when fans comment on his appearance (saying he looks sad, and I hope he’s doing okay, he seems to be struggling, etc etc etc), there are other fans who are like, “I appreciate your concern, but we shouldn’t make Jackson worry. So, I think we should stop talking about his appearance…” Yet, I’ve expressed genuine concern along with everyone else. Why not comment on it? Why not point out the obvious? He looks sad and exhausted.
Of course he’s not perfect, but he looks like he’s struggling with burnout and his mental health. He needs to rest.
A fellow fan brought to my attention why fans are still commenting on his appearance and mindset, and they said this:
“….In one of his interviews, he said that there's one light bulb in his house that he never turns off. When he returns home, seeing that light makes him feel that after a day of hardwork, when all the people and camera no longer surrounds him, there is someone/something that awaits him in his home, and that's the light that is always turned on.”
And I think about this short movie I watched titled, “A Little Light Went On” that the music duo Matt and Kim posted on their YouTube channel. The premise is basically about a new product that’s been released in the market. It’s a lamp (or a thing with a lightbulb in it). After you buy the lamp and set it up in your home, the lamp may or may not turn on. The only way it turns on is when a person is thinking of you. The story went on to depict that when there were people’s lightbulbs who never went on, those people opted to make themselves disappear or they fell into a deep depression.
In a very sentimental perspective, maybe Jackson’s holding onto the fact that someone’s (a lot of people are) thinking of him and that he still matters. Maybe that means more to him than empty declarations of love from fanatics, and the love from his family who love him very much but he may feel disconnected from (due to how he sees himself). It’s the thing he can come home to.
He’s glad the light went on. And it stays on. I’m not sure if what I said makes sense. But maybe I can understand why he keeps the light on.

not saying that you cant headcanon chuuya as an alcoholic but i think the reasons people have for this headcanon are usually kind of flawed? from what i've seen people tend to view him as alcoholic because he:
a. collects wine
b. drinks it sometimes
c. is a lightweight (so we've seen him behave drunkenly)
but none of these are traits that actually indicate alcoholism. honestly, they actually are more likely to indicate that he's not one and that he doesn't have a problem with alcohol at all. wine collecting is a very expensive hobby and chuuya has wines that are several thousand dollars a bottle. you don't get nice booze when you're an alcoholic: you're drinking to get drunk. the quality doesn't matter. the fact that he's a lightweight and gets drunk easily is also indicative of him not being a regular or heavy drinker, since your tolerance increases the more you drink.
this feels like such a common interpretation of his character and it's just a little odd to me since not only does it not have any canon basis, but the canon facts actually suggest he's more likely to be moderate about alcohol rather than abuse it.
tl;dr chuuya may have a wine collecting hobby but an alcoholic this does not make.
