Even after all these years I still love you – Father!Headless Horseman( Sleepy Hollow Movie 1999) x Son!Reader
Tumblr media
To make it more realistic, I decided to write German…a LOT. The translations are right underneath the German text and I made them bold, so you can see it better. I tell you gladly, that the Hessian is German and from my own knowledge German people have a big difficulty to learn English properly and talk flawlessly with someone. I suspect that in the 17th century it was even worse, so yeah. ENJOY READING IT THOUGH !
WARNINGS!: Fluff, angst, fighting, use of Magic, Evil Mary Van Tassel (Like she usually is) and cursing ! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !
“We should have believed him a little !”, young Masbeth said to Ichabod.
“I don’t believe that he is his Son ! And I also don’t believe what he said that it is Lady Van Tassel.”, Ichabod said stubbornly.
“Like you didn’t believe that the Horseman does exist ?”, Katrina snarled.
They arrived at the tree of the dead and Ichabod found out that the young man wasn’t lying. The tree was a gateway between two worlds and behind the entrance was the sword where the Horseman was buried.
He found the head missing and slowly he started to believe what the male said.
“His skull was taken by Lady Mary Van Tassel. She caused him to die already as she was only a child, like I was. The next ones will be a Family. The very Family that gave you Gunpowder, as your horse.”
Why was he so foolish and told the man to stay out of his case ?
But he saw him again. The headless Horseman was at the Killian’s house, but didn’t enter yet. In front of him stood M/n. M/n Schaffner. Son of the headless Horseman. He had his sword drawn and tears in his eyes.
“Zwing mich nicht gegen dich zu kämpfen, Papa. (Don’t force me to fight against you, Papa.)”, M/n begged.
The headless Horseman was frozen in place and turned to his horse, Daredevil.
“Draufgänger…Bitte… (Daredevil...please…)”
Daredevil came over to M/n and then licked his face softly. M/n hugged Daredevil’s neck and stroked his mane.
His Father just stood there frozen.
“Was ? Dachtest wohl dass ich verstorben bin, huh ? (What ? Thought that I died, eh ?)”, M/n asked.
He approached M/n carefully but after 3 steps he tried to grip where his head would be and fell to his knees in pain.
“Komm schon Dad ! Du bist stärker als diese Hexe ! Du warst schon immer viel stärker als alle anderen. Ganz egal worin sie stärker waren, du hast sie alle besiegt ! Kämpfe ! (Come on, Dad ! You are stronger than this witch ! You always were much stronger than all the others. No matter in what they were stronger, you defeated them all ! Fight !)”
Ichabod could see that the Horseman tried his best to fight back, but he didn’t seem to make it and M/n saw that too. He sobbed.
“Ich kann dich nicht noch mehr töten lassen. Es tut mir Leid. (I can’t let you kill even more. I’m sorry.)”
With that M/n gripped his sword in a tight hold and stood his ground, ready to fight his own Father. He may be controlled, but he couldn’t let him continue like this.
“You can’t win this, M/n !”, Ichabod yelled.
M/n jerked his head to his left and stared at Ichabod. He smiled a sad smile.
“It is worth trying. He’s my Dad, Ichabod. I know that he will surely even kill me under HER control, but I have to try and stop him. I know he doesn’t want this…killing these people. He isn’t like this.”
Ichabod stared at the Horseman trying to fight the control off, then at M/n. He was ready to face death by his own Father’s hands, in order to help both sides… Why did this sound so wrong ? Shouldn’t Ichabod be happy that he still tries ?
He shook his head.
“He will NEVER forgive himself if he kills you, M/n. You know that he can’t control this. Do you really want to make him cry when he has his skull back ? Do you really not want to be here when he gets it back ?”
“You didn’t even believe me when I told you about the Black Witch… Why would you now ?”, M/n asked broken.
Ichabod wanted to say something, but he couldn’t. M/n had a fair point…
“My Father taught me a lot of fighting. Even if I die…I at least tried. I know I can hold him off for a little while. Get the Killians to the church. He can’t step on sacred ground.”
Then he looked at his Father again, but Daredevil blocked M/n’s view of his Dad suddenly.
“Daredevil move damn it !”, M/n hissed at his Father’s horse.
He didn’t budge until M/n gasped and passed out.
“M/N !”, Ichabod yelled.
M/n’s Father hit the back of his head with his sword’s handle and knocked him out. Ichabod took the male and dragged him a bit away from any curious eyes and then went back, only to hear a child scream and see Brom appear.
Brom shot the Horseman, but all it did was throw him off of Daredevil. He got up again.
M/n came back running and yelled at Brom as he attacked his Father with his gun.
“Stop you fool ! Don’t you see that he is sparing you ?!”, he yelled.
His Father gave Brom a smack under his chin and then continued to walk away, only for Brom to throw a throwing knife into the headless Horseman’s side.
“You idiot ! Stop it before he changes his mind and kills you !”
M/n’s Father threw it back at Brom and into his thigh. He hissed in pain, pulled it out and then grabbed the next best weapons, which were two sickles.
M/n glared at Brom in rage and while they fought he pulled out his sword and sneaked up on Brom. He hit him hard on the head, knocking him down.
“Will you leave him alone, for Fuck’s sake ?! Do you HAVE a death wish ?! You do realize that none of your tricks killed him, yes ?! Undead, dumbass ! You can’t kill something that is dead !”
Brom glared at M/n.
“I’ll get him !”, he said determined.
“Oh you will get him, alright. You will get him pissed off and ready to change his mind and just kill you ! Stupid men like you never know when to stop, think and quit being annoying !”
“I am not stupid ! I am just not a coward, like you !”
“EXCUSE ME ?! There is a difference between being brave and utterly dumb, smartass ! He is UNDEAD he is already DEAD no MORTAL can KILL HIM ! You CAN’T kill something TWICE ! So wake up, you jealous ass wipe and FACE reality !”
“He is right, Brom. You can’t win this, no matter how many people would fight with you.”, Ichabod said.
“Cowards !”, he snarled and went at M/n’s Father again.
“THEN GET FUCKING KILLED YOU ASS WIPE !”, M/n yelled and then left, sick and tired of Brom.
“M/n !”, Ichabod called.
“No ! I ain’t dealing with this shit !”
Then he was gone. Ichabod tried to make them break up the fight, but this time the headless Horseman didn’t let Brom get away alive.
The next day…
Ichabod, young Masbeth and Katrina were in the Western Woods at the grave of the Horseman.
“I believe M/n… With Lady Van Tassel taking his head.”, Ichabod said.
“We do too.”, Katrina said.
Young Masbeth nodded.
“I found a black bag in my parents’ bedroom under their bed. His skull was in there, but I couldn’t take it away. Maybe at night we steal it when the Horseman is also awake so he can have it back.”, she said.
“Bad idea. Tonight your Father will die Katrina and your so called Stepmother will fake her death and hide away. Tomorrow night you are planned to die. She knows that you found his skull, she won’t let any of you close again. She also knows about my existence now, so we have a whole load of problems storming our way.”, M/n said.
They whipped their heads around and saw him leaning against the Tree of the Dead, looking at his shoes.
“Then what do we do ?”, Ichabod asked.
“We let her think she wins.”
“What ?”
“You do know that Father let you get away with a lot, Ichabod, right ?”
“What do you mean ?”
“You disturbed his grave, hurt his tree, dared to enter his territory, meddled in his affairs and now possibly have his Son in your hands. He spared you a lot until now.”
“HIS Tree ?”
“This isn’t just a grave and a gateway. Father LIVES inside that tree. Like a house. You hurt his tree, he feels it and knows of it. You enter his Woods, he feels you intruding, you dig around on his grave, he knows. Already three reasons to kill you, because that naturally means that you threaten him and challenge him to fight you, yet he spared you. Why do you think is that ?”
Ichabod was silent, in shock of what M/n told him.
“Father hears everything here. That is why he spared you. You want to help and he knows that, but Mary is getting very angry at you. The next time you better be somewhere where he isn’t, because she will command him to kill anyone in his way, then he has no control of sparing you again.”
“How are you so sure of that ?”, young Masbeth asked.
“She knows everything Ichabod found out and he continues to get too close to uncover her. So she sends Father now against everyone and anyone that dare to stand in her way. It is a tactical move of hers and very clever. Next time we face him…we are forced to fight him, no matter what. I know we all can’t kill him, but I can hold him back for some time, not much but some. You and Katrina will run and go after that Witch and get Father’s skull back and if you have to kill that Whore for it so fucking be it.”
“But my Father…”
“Has to sadly die. I don’t like it either, but only with that we get close to her and the skull later on. She will try and prove her innocence by faking her death and then kidnapping you Katrina. She will try to frame you. Then she will summon Father again to kill you. Ichabod and I will hide close to the old Mill and after she summoned Father, we will try and get the skull back, if that doesn’t work you run to Father’s resting place and we will meet there. This witch won’t leave. She will want to see how you die so I’m sure she will be there.”
“But now that your Father knows…”
“She doesn’t know. He doesn’t have to tell her anything, not that he even could, he has no mouth and he barely knew how to write and read. Ah…sorry for embarrassing you Father. But yeah ! He can’t tell her anything. All he has to do, is kill for her. He may know of the plan, but it’s not like he is willing to kill any of us. He is fighting this spell and that could buy us some more time. She doesn’t have full control of him as I read in a book that was in the cave of The Crone Witch. She was Mary’s sister and she killed her 10 minutes ago and went back to the Van Tassel estate.”
They stared at him in utter shock.
“If we get Father to stop riding Daredevil tonight I can use the knowledge I have.”
“And what is that ?”, Ichabod asked.
“She may have control of him now. But if he has an heir of his blood and they spill their blood onto him, just a drop is enough, then the heir has also control of the said relative. Not only that, it is stronger than an outsider’s Magic. If we get him to stop for at least 10 seconds, he could have partly his own control back, which means…”
“He has a better way of fighting her spells off of him.”, Katrina finished.
“Bingo.”
“So we wait…?”, young Masbeth asked.
“No. We can’t wait… We need to prepare a little trap for Daredevil and Father. She grows stronger and gets more control of him the longer he is under her spells. He is getting weaker, which is a horrible sign, because my Father is anything BUT weak. He cut down men that were twice his size and 10 times stronger than him. This little mind control trick shouldn’t be a problem to him, but she must have used more than one to make him get weaker with every attempt he tries to fight her off.”
“Then wouldn’t this be useless ?”, Ichabod asked.
“Not really. I just need some more time until tonight to see if I can find the counter spell. It is definitely a draining spell she put on him and a strong one at that. Father must have gotten stronger after his death and transportation to Hell. He shows a lot of that, but his mind is unaffected by changes ? No, no, no my dear friends. She used the most powerful spell that existed and I found it in the Crone’s spell book.”
“Can you even do Magic ?”, Katrina asked.
“Ehhh, yes. I mean Dad didn’t know until now, but I am a Necromancer. I started learning, when I was 8 years old, with The Crone. I took her under my wing, while Mary just disappeared. It surprised us both that I had such powerful and dangerous Magic. I had to walk on eggshells for a long while until I could really practice.”
“Why ?”
“Well…Necromancy is…deadly for the ones who wield it… Yes you can resurrect people and all that, but it comes with a prize. First off, you need enough death around you to do so.”
“Death ?”
“Necromancy is death magic. You get Death Magic from dead people. Graveyards are mostly the best to learn and get stronger, because you suck the death inside you. It gets transformed into pure energy and then you have Magic. The more you use them, the weaker you get, because you need to recharge the Magic, which means you need to go to graveyards and everywhere where death is. If you use too much at once…you can kill yourself. I trained so much that I know my limits and that I even stretched them out. I never used them in a fight, but I will if I have to.”
They stared at M/n in utter shock.
“Why did you never revive your Father ?”, young Masbeth asked.
“I never had enough Magic to do so. Also this can go horribly wrong… One wrong move with your fingers or a second you lose concentration and you bring back a Monster. Mostly ones that rip open the bodies of the living and eat their insides. I really wasn’t ready to revive my Father and possibly turn him into that. Eww no.”
The other three had a look of horror on their faces as they heard that.
“When I share my blood with him, we will be mixed together and have a bond that will break hers with him. But that also means he will have my Magic. I hope he won’t use it, because that could backfire badly for the both of us. While he can’t die twice by mortal weapons, Necromancy can and it definitely will kill me if he uses them without knowing what to do to control it.”
“Can you break the bond when this is all over ?”
“Yes. When he has his head back, he is complete and practically alive at night. Still a ghost and all, but he can bleed. We cut his right wrist and mine and then we lay them above each other and he has to say…’I banish the blood of my relative, for I have full control over my body, soul and mind’. Then his and my blood part ways and no one controls him anymore.”
“Sounds simple.”, Ichabod said.
“It truly isn’t going to be simple. When our blood mixes, we are cursed to feel each other’s pain and emotions, it also hurts extremely when we bond. And when we part we might pass out from all the pain we will experience. It will feel like you are being merged together by hot lava and when you part with him, it feels like someone is ripping you apart from the inside out. But I would go through it for my Father a billion times if I had to.”
“Could it cause any serious damage ?”, Katrina asked.
“Yes. I could go deaf or blind for a few weeks. I could also get paralyzed for a few months or lose my memories for a little while. I could suddenly have the mind of a child again for weeks or even turn into one for a certain amount of time. There is a lot that could harm me, but I will face it. My Father should get away without a scratch. It is only dangerous for the living relative, not the dead one.”
“Oh my…”
“I will take it.”
With that they set up a little net trap and then waited, while M/n read the big heavy book in his lap, searching for the counter spell. He found it one hour before sunset and he rehearsed it over and over in his head.
Soon the sun was down and lightning was seen with thunder not far away. M/n stood in front of the trap and waited for the headless Horseman to come out with Daredevil. He wasn’t kept waiting for long and out they came, landing directly in their trap, which went off instantly. The Horseman fell from Daredevil in surprise and Daredevil whinnied loudly.
“Tut mir Leid ihr zwei, aber das musste sein. Jetzt halt still, Vater. (I’m sorry you two, but this had to be. Now hold still, Father.)“
He struggled to get out, but stopped when M/n loomed over him and just sat there. M/n cut his own wrist with the very dagger his Father gifted to him once and then let his blood fall on his Father’s open neck.
“With my blood on you, Father of mine, I herby have full control over you and you shall not fight me until I know you are yourself again in every sense of the word. Fight me and it will have consequences for both of us, hurt me and you will be hurt tenfold worse, disobey me and you will face punishment. I bind ourselves to each other through my blood.”, M/n said with his most serious tone he ever had against his own Father.
In the Horseman’s mind it translated to German and he really didn’t like where this was going. He didn’t understand all of what they said but now he really starts to understand what his own child is doing to himself.
M/n started to double over in pain suddenly and he hissed. The Horseman felt a familiar sensation and it hurt even worse than when he got stabbed into his right side the very day he lost his life. He burned all over, even hotter than Hell itself.
“M/n !”, Ichabod yelled worried.
“I-Argh ! I’m fine ! It’s normal !”, M/n replied quickly.
M/n started to feel a connection with his Father and he felt that he was just as much in pain as he was himself.
“S-streichel…Draufgänger. Lenk dich ab… (P-Pet…Daredevil. Distract yourself…)”, M/n told his Father.
He always petted Daredevil when he was in pain or when he felt that his own insanity will eat him up. Daredevil distracted him and calmed him down.
The Horseman did just that, stroking Daredevil, like he always did when he really needed a distraction. M/n smiled softly.
“Du wirst dich nie ändern. Draufgänger wird immer dein Felsen in der Brandung sein. (You will never change. Daredevil will always be your rock in the surf.)“, M/n chuckled out softly, then hissed again in slight pain.
“Is it getting weaker ?”, Katrina asked.
“Yes, but I can feel HER spell. I will fucking kill her when I see her face. This little whore…”, M/n growled out.
Soon everything calmed down and M/n stood up. Ichabod helped him lift the net and Daredevil and M/n’s Father were free. The headless Horseman stood up and then petted Daredevil, while he waited.
M/n came near him again and placed his right hand on the Horseman’s chest then stared at where his head should be, determined and slightly outraged.
“I, M/n Schaffner, the blood heir to Klaus Schaffner, hereby banish your weakening spell from my Father, Mary Van Tassel and any other spells you put him under. These spells shall scar your body tenfold worse than how my Father had suffered from them. Be gone BLACK WITCH !”
The Horseman felt a weight being lifted off of his shoulders and he relaxed.
“She has still control over him.”, young Masbeth said.
“Yes, but only because of his skull now. I can partly control him, in hopes I still know him best, to help him go around a few things.”
“So the plan is in action ?”, Ichabod asked.
“Yes.”
“Then you should tell him about it.”, Katrina said.
And with that they all sat down and M/n explained to his headless Father everything they planned in German. He told his Father to show a thumbs up for agreement and a thumb down for disagreement and if he didn’t understand anything he can touch M/n’s arm and he will elaborate.
He was pretty much okay with the whole plan and understood most of it. Just obey for now, don’t fight her and let his Son take the reins if it gets tricky. He hopes his plan will work, otherwise they are both doomed.
With that they all got into the act. After the deed was done for tonight they met at the Tree of the Dead, where the headless Horseman waited. They only had 30 minutes before sunrise.
“Any questions ?”, M/n asked.
“How do we get the skull if this plan fails ?”, young Masbeth asked.
“It won’t fail.”
“If you get hurt, what will happen to him ?”, Katrina asked.
“He will feel my pain but not be injured, he can only be injured too if he injures me.”
“The spells that were on your Father…”, Ichabod started.
“…Yes…?”
“Could they have controlled him even after he would have had his head back ?”
Silence…
“Yes. But not in the same way as you would imagine… He would drag her to Hell, but she would also have merged with the tree and killed it, while he still lived in it. She could have killed his hideout and made him walk in the sun until he found another dark hideout. And she could have controlled his every move. Just thinking of him, she could make him kill someone or come to her. That was the reason why I had to break her from him.”
They stared in utter horror at M/n.
“God, she even could have forced him to have THE THING with her. Which is disgusting enough…”
Ichabod and Katrina scrunched their faces up in disgust. The Horseman would have done the same if he had his head and face. How repulsing.
“NOW ! We should worry more about what other shit she can pull… I…will be present but I will warn ALL of you… I might not be safe tomorrow.”, M/n informed them.
“W-what do you mean ?”, Ichabod asked.
“I will charge myself the whole day today in the graveyard of Sleepy Hollow. I need a lot of energy against her and I drained myself immensely today by banishing her from him and making this bond. Charging over a whole day can actually lead to overcharging and with that you can slightly lose your mind. I will know who my target is, but I will act very reckless. Just be careful that you won’t touch me and watch the shadows.”
“How can you overcharge ?”, young Masbeth asked.
“I never charged a whole day, without breaks or letting some Magic loose, before. That will lead to me being overcharged because there are so many dead people and so much time to charge up. The more extra energy I get the more it gets to my head, but we will need it. I’m sure of it.”
“Okay.”, Katrina said.
“I might look different, but you shouldn’t be all too worried. Just no physical touch and don’t get too close to too dark, moving shadows.”
They all nodded, besides the Horseman he showed a thumb up instead. Then M/n went to hug his headless Father and then he vanished in the shadows, leaving them behind.
“I hope he knows what he is doing…”, Ichabod mumbled.
They said their goodbyes to the Horseman and then left, while he retreated to his tree.
M/n sat in the middle of the Graveyard and started to charge up. He refused to eat and drink, because that would only stop him from charging up.
Ichabod and the other two got prepared for tonight. Katrina all depressed and Masbeth and Ichabod already went to the old Mill, before Lady Van Tassel noticed anything.
And the Hessian was waiting for his call, prepared to act like his Son asked him to. Until then he just petted Daredevil and cared for him and maybe fell asleep from boredom.
The night started and they all played out their parts. Believing that the Witch actually died, the Horseman still under her control (seems like the curse didn’t set itself into motion for now) and so on and so forth. Right now the Hessian has fallen behind thanks to the carriage and he walked per foot.
The black witch just sat on her horse, holding the poor white witch by the hair. The Hessian winced for her, must hurt being pulled by your hair like that…
Then Hell broke loose. Quite literally. Shadows started to appear everywhere and they tackled Mary down from her horse and on the floor.
“Well, well, well~ Look who we have here~”
The trio and the Horseman looked up at the Tree of the Dead and there was a frightening person on top of it, commanding the shadows like second nature.
It wore a black mask with black, similar to the Horseman’s, armor and the face was glowing a deep red and it moved !
Then it all hit them.
This was M/n !
There were moving shadows everywhere and they all didn’t DARE to move. He slammed Mary into a random tree at his right and then threw her on the ground, making her gasp.
Another tendril grasped the bag that she had the Hessian’s skull in, but she fought with her own Magic. Fire shot out of her hand, that was blocked quickly by a shadow wall from M/n. He swung one of his tentacles towards her and hit her left side, making her fly to her right and crash into another tree.
“Scatter about. One of you must catch it ! Horseman you stay where you are !”
They all ran to a different spot, while the headless Hessian stayed where he was, just like M/n.
M/n summoned rain and let it pour down on the former Archer’s head, making her even more angry than before.
“Kill them already !”, she yelled at the Hessian.
He didn’t move an inch.
M/n laughed loudly and then swung a tendril at her right side, making her fly to her left and into another tree.
M/n scoffed.
“Pathetic.”
She pulled out her gun and gave three bullets into his direction, which he easily blocked off by another wall.
Mary’s Magic only could do so much. She never trained any arts, just spells and potions. This looked bad for her. Then she grabbed the back tightly and threatened to throw it onto the stone she stood, smashing the Horseman’s skull.
Everybody froze and she smirked as she had the upper hand. She pointed at the Horseman and commanded him again to kill them. He was about to move as tendrils wrapped themselves around him.
The next thing she didn’t see coming. M/n sneaked a tentacle behind her and it wrapped itself tightly around her, making her yelp and try to get out. Then she was slammed into the dirt three times and then released only to see a very pissed off shadow wolf.
“Hurt her.”, M/n said.
And the wolf out of shadows did. Scratching her and ripping here and there, until M/n snapped his fingers and the shadows left.
Then the former Archer had one last idea. She can control roots. She put her hands on the ground and started. M/n snarled and fought back. The Horseman saw and felt how insane M/n went, but he also felt how hurt he was from using so much magic.
He summoned black shadow flames that burned the roots to ashes, making the Black Witch hiss and let go of her control over the roots. Then the bag flew out of her hand and into Ichabod’s.
Ichabod took the skull out and threw it at the Hessian. He reached out, but a vine grabbed it and pulled it back. A black shadow tendril with spikes slapped the witch across the face, making her lose focus and he returned the skull to the Hessian. He quickly put it on and M/n trapped his Father into an enclosure of shadows so the Black Witch can’t reach him.
“NO !”, she yelled and tried to get in.
It took great effort for M/n to keep the closure up. He summoned another tendril that wrapped around her and threw her, head first, against another tree to her right. She was knocked out cold for now and M/n started to drop his Magic and with that his mask and everything else melted into shadows. All he kept up was the enclosure.
He teleported down the tree and coughed. The rest of his Necromancy, which wasn’t much anymore, already went to work on healing him as fast as possible.
“M/n ! Are you alright ?!”, Katrina asked.
“Y-yeah… Just hard to keep the barrier up and heal yourself and stay awake all at the same time.”, M/n answered.
He coughed again and fell to his knees.
“M/n !”, the three called worried and ran over quickly.
“You are bleeding !”, Ichabod yelled.
“I’ll be fine…”, M/n mumbled.
Then he dropped the enclosure and they all saw the Hessian with a head and a face. He looked at them but everything quickly fell from his mind as he saw M/n on the floor, bleeding terribly.
“M/N !”, he yelled worried sick and ran over, holding his boy close to his chest.
“Hey…Dad…”
“Was ist los ?! Was ist passiert ?! (What is going on ?! What happened ?!)”
“Nothing, just a little miscalculation… I’ll be fine. I’m already healing.”
He was too drained to talk in German to his Dad.
“Schau dich doch an ! Du siehst so aus als ob du fast tot bist ! (Look at yourself ! You look like you’re almost dead !)”
“I’ll be fine. Give me 10 minutes and I will be fine.”
And so they waited and indeed, M/n was fine after that. He sighed and stood up on shaky legs. M/n’s Father helped him to stand straight.
“I’m sleepy…”
“You can sleep later, now what of her ?”, Ichabod asked.
“Hell. To Hell with that whore…”, M/n sneered and then passed out.
He missed how his Father dragged her to Hell, how he gave her a bloody kiss, how he returned and brought him home and cared for him until he woke up.
Dexter awoke the next Morning and looked around, smelling something, he missed all too much. The best chicken in the whole world, from his Father. But…wasn’t he supposed to be going back to hell ?
No matter he ran down the stairs and caught his Father in his kitchen.
“Morgen. (Morning)”
“Hi.”
“I’m a free spirit now… We still need to undo your little spell to keep me in line.”
“That we shall do after we ate. We might pass out otherwise and burn the house down.”
The Hessian nodded.
“Ichabod und die anderen zwei haben vor nach New York zu gehen. Sie haben dir Briefe hinterlassen. (Ichabod and the other two are planning to move to New York. They left you letters.)”
“New York, eh ? And who will take care of Sleepy Hollow ? Or of your grave that something like this NEVER happens again ?”
“I don’t know.”
“Well I will write them just that then. The food ?”
“Fast fertig. (Almost done.)”
“Okay.”
After a few more minutes they ate and then undid the spell. They passed out. M/n on his Father’s chest and in his arms and the Hessian in a tight snuggle from his Son.
They will talk with these three nut heads later… Now they really need a nap.
Meanwhile the counter spell, M/n casted against Mary Archer, hit her in Hell tenfold worse, making her suffer for a long while.

- SUB-UNIT: STUDENT COUNCIL -
It’s all black… I can’t see… where am--
I slowly opened my eyes and sat up. I was in the same classroom, it was lit brighter. The light from the sun shined through the windows and I felt an aching pain in my head. But it could be from the fact I just fell on my head a few sec--- wait. How long ago was it?
I’m starting to remember now.. We’re in a game.. The school was in ruins a moment ago. What the hell is going on here?
I walked towards the door and into the hallway. Where is everyone? The other students? Do we have to meet up in whatever room? I peeked back into the classroom to look for a message on the chalkboard but there was nothing. Sooooo, no clue what to do- uh- I’ll just walk over to the classroom next door…
(Entering classroom/ representatives;2_found/ subunit;studentcouncil)
“Hellooooo? Anyone in--”
“No, but I’m just saying- is it really a good idea to allow timed academic competitions..?”
“Of course it is, don’t be so cautious. Other schools do it, and besides- we were picked out for this subunit, so it would most likely make the most sense, right?”
Uh- am I supposed to be here? Maybe I should leave? WAIT- THERE ARE OTHER STUDENTS, THAT’S A GOOD THING, UH- OKAY-
I walked over and they turned to look at me. A more young masculine looking person and a feminine looking person. One of the students had more fluffy orange-tinted hair, wore the masculine-based school uniform. And the other student had straighter black and faded purple-tinted hair, with their hood up. “My name is Star, I was wondering if I could get some help around here? I don’t really know what happened to my school- adding on that I’ve never seen you two during my entire life at this school-”. I jumbled over my words a little, I have no idea how to explain any of this. “It’s nice to meet you, I’m Aim. Listed under the Student Council Subunit.” he smiled. I let out a sigh of relief, they were nice- thank the stars.. I turned to the other student: “And you are-?”.
They stared at me for a second before blinking, like they were bringing themselves back into reality. “OH- sorry.. You can call me Oriana, I’m under the same subunit as Aim. We were just discussing random stuff that I kinda already forgot about--” they scratched their head and laughed awkwardly. “Really….?” Aim glared sarcastically at Oriana. “Yeah, okay. Don’t try that, you’re still a baby compared to me.” Oriana snickered.
I watched Aim get slightly offended before turning back to me. I decided to take them with me to look for other stu--- wait, did they say they’re under a subunit?
‘ ‘ I am your Headmaster Subunit. , ,
“You’re under a subunit, like Yui?” I asked. “Huh- didn’t we say that?” Aim asked before Oriana chimed in. “Yui is a weird kid, I don’t say that often. I’d like to not be compared with them.”.
I quickly apologized and fidgeted with my hands a bit. “What subunit are you listed under?” Aim asked, and as always, I was dumbfounded. Man- I really gotta start paying attention in class. I don’t even remember what subunits are-
“Well-- uh-- I-” I was looking around trying to think. It was just out of habit.
“If you don’t remember, you can just check your student handbook.” Oriana suggested. I thanked them before taking out the student handbook in my pocket. And this student handbook- was VERY personal. Like extremely personal-. Besides the subunit listing, which is normal, there was: blood type, likes and dislikes, family origins, aliases, height, weight in both lbs and kg, even closest allies. “Huh- never knew my blood type before-.” I mumbled. “Yeah- this thing is kinda weird.” Aim noted. “It has info on everything and everyone.”.
“Well, according to this, I’m also under the student council subunit..” I looked up at them. “So we’re on the same subunit?” Oriana asked. I nodded. “That’s soooo cool!!” Aim’s eyes lit up in joy. “We finally have another addition to the unit!!” He cheered as we began to walk into the hallway in search of other students.
“Like I said, he's baby.” Oriana shrugged before laughing. I couldn’t contain my laughter and began laughing as well. “Hey! I don’t really appreciate that..” Aim scoffed dramatically before running in front of us. “Mhm, yeah- okay. Talk to us when you’re older, young one.” I patted his head jokingly. “I’m barely any younger than Oriana! We’re the same age! Just a few months difference!”. Maybe this wouldn’t be that terrible.. I’ve already figured out people to stick with in this game.
I completely forgot..
We’re in a killing game..
Nobody can be trusted, not any of the students.
But maybe… These people are different...
They must be… right..?

Während ich schuldbewusst in der Ecke stand fragte mich meine Frau,
" Weißt Du warum ich Dich mit dem Kochlöffel verhauen habe?"
Ich schluchzte laut auf, mit verhaltener Stimme gab ich zu, "weil ich an Deine Schokolade genascht habe!"
"Ja genascht hast Du, ohne mich vorher zu fragen! Darfst Du das?"
 "Nein, das war sehr ungezogen von mir!"
"Ja sehr, sehr ungezogen! Wie ein kleiner, schamloser Bengel hast Du dich verhalten! Ein hinterhältiger, kleiner Dieb bist Du! Schäm Dich, mich so zu hintergehen und zu bestehlen! Und was verdient solch ein gewissenloser Dieb?"
 " Haue! Haue! Strenge Haue! Strenge Haue auf seinen Po!"
 "Haue hast Du ja von mir bekommen! Und geweint hast Du ja genug, wegen so ein bisschen Haue! Kannst Du Dich nicht mal wenigstens einmal wie ein großer Junge benehmen und tapfer Deine verdiente Züchtigung hinnehmen?"
"Aber, aber es tut so, so fürchterlich weh! Und fast immer bekomme ich die Haue auf meinen nackten Po! So wie jetzt eben! Und dass nur weil ich ein kleines Stückchen Schokolade geklaut habe!" Und schnell beeilte ich mich zu entschuldigen" Ja, es tut mir ja so leid!"
" So es tut Dir also leid! Aber was heißt hier nur ein kleines Stückchen? Ich glaube Du siehst Deine schlimme Missetat noch immer nicht ein! Bring mir sofort den Rohrstock! 25 Schläge bekommst Du jetzt von mir! Natürlich auf Dein nacktes Hinterteil"
" Bitte, bitte nicht noch mehr Haue! 25 Schläge auf meinen nackten Po, das ist zu streng! Bitte verzeihe mir, ich will es auch nicht wieder tun! Bitte, bitte!"                                                                                                             
“Du bekommst Deine verdienten 25 Schläge, aber 25 Schläge auf jede Pobacke wegen Deiner “Du bekommst Deine verdienten 25 Schläge, aber 25 Schläge auf jede Pobacke wegen Deiner Bettelei! Noch ein Wort und ich überlege mir, ob das bei Deiner unangemessenen Aufsässigkeit reichen wird! Los bringe mir sofort den Rohrstock, sonst wird zusätzlich der Teppichklopfer Deinen Po besuchen!"                                                               
Eingeschüchtert beeilte ich mich, ihr den Rohrstock zu meiner angesagten weiteren Züchtigung zu bringen!
 While I was guilty in the corner my wife asked me,                                          
"Do you know why I spanked you with the wooden spoon?"                         
I sobbed loudly, I admitted in a restrained voice, "because I nibbled on your chocolate!"                                                                                                    
"Yes, you nibbled without asking me beforehand !Are you allowed to do that?"                                                                                                                
"No, that was very naughty of mine!"                                                         
"Yes, very, very naughty! You behaved like a little, shameless villain! You are a sneaky, little thief! Shame on you to deceive me and steal from me! And what does such an unscrupulous thief deserve?”                                    
"Spanking! Spanking! Strict spanking! Strict spanking on his bottom!"        
 "You got blows from me! And you cried enough because of a few smacks! Can you at least behave like a big boy at least once and bravely accept your deserved punishment?"                                                                              
"But, but it hurts so badly! And almost always I get spanked on my bare bottom! Just like now! And that's just because I stole a small piece of chocolate!" And I quickly hurried to apologize, Yes, I'm so sorry!”          
 "So you're so sorry! But what do you mean by just a small piece? I think you still don't see your bad iniquity! Bring me the cane immediately! Now you get 25 blows from me! Of course on your bare buttocks!"                        
"Please, please don't spank any more! 25 blows on my bare bottom, that's too severe! Please forgive me, I don't want to do it again! Please, please!" 
“You get your deserved 25 strokes, but 25 strokes on each buttock for your begging! One more word and I will think about whether that will be enough with your undue defiance! Bring me the cane immediately, otherwise the carpet knocker will visit your butt in addition! "                        
Intimidated, I hurried to bring her the cane to my further chastisement, announced by her!

The Guanyin Temple Event: another essay
(spoilers for episode 47 - 50 and the novel. All novel excerpts taken from the wonderful translations provided by Team Exiled Rebels Scanlations)
I didn’t read the Mo Dao Zu Shi novel until I was about a dozen episodes into The Untamed, but once I did, there were two events that I was most looking forward to seeing depicted on-screen: the Phoenix Mountain Hunt and the climax at the Guanyin Temple. The main reason for my heightened anticipation was because they were both critical and awesome events in the novel and also because I couldn’t wait to see how Team CQL was going to work around the blatant WangXian-ness present in them. Since I already wrote at length about the Phoenix Mountain Hunt, I won’t delve into that topic again, but suffice it to say I was quite pleased at what the drama team came up with in place of the blindfolded make-out session between Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian.  
For the Guanyin Temple event, I knew Team CQL had their work cut out for them because it wasn’t just a kiss they had to work around, but a whole ton of WangXian moments since that’s pretty much when Wei Wuxian, our completely awesome and lovable but dense AF protagonist, finally finds out that Lan Wangji has been in love with him for like…forever…and they acknowledge their feelings for each other (in front of family and foes no less). From the moment WWX finds out about Lan Zhan’s love for him until the end of the Guanyin Temple incident, it’s so loaded with WangXian cuteness that I almost died laughing while reading those passages: for me, at times their lovey-doveyness actually crossed into cringe-territory. Not that they didn’t earn the right to be completely corney, mushy puppies in love, but I still had to cover my eyes, shake my head and turn away in embarrassment a few times. I mean, I was literally suffering from a diabetic attack during some of those scenes.  
Of course I didn’t expect mushiness to that level in the show…there’s still censorship to consider after all…but I was hoping for a ghost of what happened in the novel so that once again the spirit of their love confession can still be captured on the show. Or at the very least, I was hoping for some Easter eggs that would let us know that the production team understands our pain and wishes they could’ve given us all the WangXian love too.  
Unfortunately, there didn’t seem to be any of that. In fact, with much regret, I have to say that in terms of WangXian quotient, I was a rather disappointed in CQL’s adaptation of the Guanyin Temple event.  
It almost felt like in the end, Team CQL couldn’t really come up with anything to replace the abundance of WangXian love we were given in the novel, so they chose to just completely avoid any hints of it altogether. If I’m going to be honest, LWJ even seemed grumpy most of the time. I don’t blame Wang Yibo’s performance for this at all (I will never blame him for anything LWJ…he has given us such an amazing LWJ that he is blameless forever in my book. Same goes for Xiao Zhan and his WWX), I’m sure that’s the direction he was given, which makes me really scratch my head in perplexity. To jump ahead a little, a good example of this is during the scene where LWJ is protecting WWX from Fairy. In the novel, we had this exchange during that moment: (from chapter 101):
Wei WuXian, “Hug me!”
Lan WangJi, “I am hugging you!”
Wei WuXian, again, “Hug me tight!”
Lan WangJi, also, “I am hugging you tight!”
Whereas in the drama, we didn’t really have any dialogue and Lan Zhan didn’t even look too pleased about having to protect Wei Ying from the fluffy puppy. In fact, I was actually a bit bummed when he raised his arm to protect WWX: they started out with Wei Ying clinging to Lan Zhan’s body but raising his arm like that actually caused Wei Ying to move away from him, making their interaction less intimate.
Tumblr media
Then there was that pivotal moment in the courtyard of the temple in the beginning, where WWX was being held hostage by Jin Guangyao and his guqin string: that was a scene I was especially looking forward to since that’s when Wei Ying blurts out the line that he’s always wanted to sleep with LWJ, which pretty much sets off his confession of love and devotion afterwards. I was extremely curious what dialogue Team CQL would put in place of something as blatant as that. I was hoping for something along the lines of “no matter what, you will always be my 知己” from WWX, which would’ve served as another callback to what they said on Phoenix Mountain and what they were thinking about during that snowy evening on Cloud Recesses. Just something poignant yet meaningful to capture all the love WWX has for Lan Zhan. Sadly, all we got was forgiveness from WWX about what happened during Nightless City, which, as heartfelt as the words were uttered (WWX saying it all teary-eyed got me all teary-eyed as well), they still felt almost a little unnecessary at that point. Especially since we already got that pardon when Lan Zhan was drunk and Wei Ying was telling him all of it was not his fault. Sure, Lan Zhan’s sober this time around and I did sense all the emotions in their expressions, but in terms of what was actually being said, as a replacement for “Lan Zhan! Lan WangJi! HanGuang-Jun! Back then, I-I really wanted to sleep with you!”? I’m sorry, it fell wayyyy short.  
I also didn’t like the fact that once they were inside the temple, sitting side by side, the dialogue was changed to the following:
Tumblr media
Where’s the love in that?? Again, it’s not like I was expecting anything hot and heavy like it was in the book (from chapter 100):
Wei WuXian couldn’t let out another sound. Amidst the darkness, Lan WangJi had already embraced him tightly, stopping him with his lips.
Lan WangJi’s breaths were short and disordered. His hoarse voice whispered beside Wei WuXian’s ear, “… fancy you…”
Wei WuXian hugged him tight, “Yes!”
Lan WangJi, “… love you, want you…”
Wei WuXian raised his voice, “Yes!”
Lan WangJi, “Cannot leave you… do not want anyone but you… it cannot be anyone but you!”
But maybe just a little more affection?  In the book, there was so much love going on between WWX and LWJ at Guanyin Temple that even Jin Guangyao was nice enough to step aside and give them some alone time to talk out their feelings. Big bro Lan Xichen and Jin Ling also made sure to sit away from them so that they could hug and kiss it out. The show actually kept the seating arrangement intact, which I guess was meant as a nod to the fans, but I would’ve rather they kept the sentiments instead.  
Not that Guanyin Temple was completely devoid of WangXian moments, thankfully, we did get the following little touches:
Tumblr media
But if you read the novel, I have to believe you’d agree with me just a bit that all of that was hardly comparable to the source material. I don’t know if Team CQL decided to change things this way so that the ending with LWJ deciding to separate from WWX (although temporarily) would make more sense, or if the censorship monster finally got to them; either way, I wish they had been just a little more…creative and generous, I guess? It pains me to say that since it sounds like I’m being rather ungrateful—they have given us so much already—but Guanyin Temple was just so important to WWX and LWJ’s relationship, I can’t help but wish it was…better? At least in terms of WangXian.  
Not to mention, strangely, there seemed to be more technical problems with the Guanyin Temple episodes than with any other consecutive batch of eps prior to them. The issues ran the gamut of bad production choices: awkward pacing (I love Wen Ning and it was cool seeming him possessed by Baxia, but it felt like it took him at least half an hour to get from the courtyard to actually inside the damn temple), very obvious editing errors (one moment WWX has his hand on LWJ’s hand, the next he doesn’t, and then he does again), clunky scene transitions, bad sound editing/mixing (why are we hearing the flute on top of Wei Ying’s whistling and the melodies aren’t even the same?), and if I’m going to be honest, the fight choreography and scene set up were kind of mediocre too.  It felt like only the actors were bringing their A-game during those scenes while the production team was already getting ready for the wrap party since the show was going to be over soon. I mean, look at this, where the hell was A-Yao running off to?  
Tumblr media
Why couldn’t they show his death? It was so much better and creepier in the novel. Or is he even dead? Did they keep that open-ended too just in case they want to bring him back for the movie? And will LXC even get his sword back???
I know I sound rather negative, and I actually debated for a while on even sharing my feelings because I hate being so critical of this show that gave me so much joy for the most part. I also didn’t want to bum anyone out with my criticisms, however, even though I love, I can never love blindly, so I just have to get all the griping out of my system.  
On the bright side, despite being disappointed by the WangXian quotient and the technical shortcomings of these eps, I was quite pleased by some of the changes Team CQL made from the novel which, imho, I thought were actual improvements from the source material (sorry, MXTX-laozi!). First of all, I really appreciated the closure we got between Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying. I LOVED that the two Yunmeng brothers got to talk things out and really reconciled. I especially loved this look JC had as he watched WWX play his flute:
Tumblr media
As if he was both proud and relieved that WWX found a way to be strong again even without his golden core. We didn’t get such a sweet moment in the book. There actually wasn’t much interaction between them after Wei Ying told JC to just forget about the past; in fact, there seemed to still be some residual bad feelings which made me think the Yunmeng brothers weren’t really ever going to be ok again.  WWX definitely didn’t wipe away JC’s tears or even touch him. That affectionate exchange we were given in the drama was just so precious and needed after all the pain both of them have been through, and it made me feel so much happier and reassured about their relationship. I’m glad that in both versions JC didn’t tell WWX what actually happened the day he was taken by the Wen Sect: it would’ve been just yet another heartache to burden Wei Ying who obviously was ready to move on with his new life. That little consideration made me love Jiang Cheng so much more.  
Another improvement was the resolution between Lan Xichen and Jin Guangyao. I tried really hard not to ship big bro and A-Yao, but dammit, the show pretty much forced me to, especially towards the end with their last scenes together.  Before I say anything else, I must really commend Liu Haikuan and Zhu Zanjin, the actors who brought LXC and JGY to life respectively: they really delivered during their scenes in Guanyin Temple. Zhu Zanjin is always on the verge of overacting and sometimes actually crosses the line, but all of his choices really worked for me within those scenes. I completely felt the hurt and anger from JGY when he thought LXC never trusted him, just as much as I felt the same emotions from LXC when his A-Yao revealed his true colors.  They made my heart hurt for both of them and wish for a happy ending for them, which is just crazy because JGY is not a good person. As WWX pointed out, JGY really is a lot like Xue Yang, but he probably didn’t realize just how alike they are: they’re both technically monsters but still somehow capable of love…or a twisted form of it at least that passed for normal for them. One of my favorite pieces of dialogue in the entire novel was actually JGY’s (chapter 108):
“In this life, I’ve lied countless times, killed countless times. Like you said, I killed my father, my brother, my wife, my son, my teacher, my friend—of all the evil in the world, what haven’t I done?!” He took in a breath, rasping, “But I’ve never even thought of harming you!”
That moved me so much, and I actually teared up when JGY uttered basically those same words in the show because I believed he meant them, it wasn’t just a ploy to manipulate LXC again. And then, at the very last minute when JGY was about to pull LXC into the coffin so that the two of them could die together, in the book, JGY just suddenly pushed LXC away. I loved that in the show, we are shown LXC’s acceptance to the fate JGY intended for them…
Tumblr media
…and that is why he pushes his second brother away. It was enough for him to know LXC didn’t regard him the same way that Nie Mingjue did after all, that he did genuinely care for JGY all these years. Although JGY probably didn’t deserve such satisfaction before his death considering all the people he‘s killed and harmed (except for Jin Guangshan…that asshole deserved everything he got…I’d count that as a PLUS on JGY’s karma scale, even if that was his dad), I still couldn‘t help feeling a bit happy that he attained it. I can‘t help it, JGY reminds me of a Puss-in-boots half of the time.
Tumblr media
Finally, as heart-breaking as it was, I appreciated how much more affected Wei Ying was by the revelation that he had just been an unwitting pawn and victim in JGY’s schemes all this time. In the novel, the truth seemed to mostly rolled off his back, probably because he was too busy cuddling with LWJ to even care anymore, but in The Untamed, WWX seemed downright devastated. I have to say, Xiao Zhan really has mastered the laughing-while-crying combo-hit so damn well that he never fails to make my eyes well up every time he delivers that killer move.  
Tumblr media
I really felt his pain and anger at how much he suffered because of what JGY and Su She did, and how wronged he was by them, even if JGY tried to partially lay the blame on him and Jiang Cheng. What made JGY’s words especially hurtful was the modicum of truth to them, because WWX was being incendiary and arrogant during that time, and JC really didn’t have his back at all. He definitely never stood up for him like Shijie did at Phoenix Mountain. Again, I should hate JGY for hurting them with such painful truths and hell, I should hate him solely for all that he has done to WWX, whether it was purposeful or happenstance, but I simply don’t. I might feel differently if Wei Ying wasn’t given a second chance at life and happiness, but thankfully he was and that does make all difference in the world. I don’t even hate Su She…I just think he’s really pathetic and I’m glad he died the way he did.
So, do all of these positive factors balance out what I thought were definite missteps in the drama’s version of what happened at Guanyin Temple? If we had another 10 episodes of Wei Ying and Lan Zhan interactions to look forward to, the answer would probably be yes. OR, if we were given a bona fide, neat as a bow, unquestionably happy ending for them, the answer would also be yes. However, because this was the last couple of episodes we would ever get in the series before its conclusion and the ending was not quite as neat as I wish it would’ve been, then the answer is, sadly, no. I feel we were simply deprived too much of WangXian–I think they spent half the time just spectating at what was going on–and therefore for me, the execution of the Guanyin Temple events by Team CQL unfortunately leaned more on the side of being a disappointment overall.  
Thank you once again for reading my second thesis. I have no idea if I will ever be able to earn my doctorate in MDZS/The Untamed, but I will continue to work hard at it. At the very least, I hope all this blabbering has granted me the privilege of being a somewhat worthy disciple-in-training.

Das Problem fr mich ist, dass es mittlerweile einfach wahnsinnig ausgelutscht und nicht nur ironisch sondern auch objektiv unlustig ist. Jedes mal wenn ich eine direkte (und bewusst falsche) bersetzung einer englischen Phrase lese, stell ich mir den Verfasser schelmisch grinsend vor seiner Tastatur vor, wie er glaubt auf komdiantisches Gold gestoen zu sein, obwohl schon hunderte anderer de selbiges oder hnliches vor ihm gebracht haben. Es ist einfach nur noch cringe.. I can promise you one thing, as an African American, I will never forgive someone for saying that word until they personally apologize. Idc if they record a video to say it was an accident blah blah blah. If the N word is the first word that comes to mind when you're mad, you have problems.. This may be harsh, but it something I struggling with as well. You are not responsible for your parents marriage. You are their kid and any fall out is their 속초출장샵 responsibility. "I'm personally super excited by this pickup truck. It's something I've been wanting to make for 속초출장샵 a long time. And I've been iterating sort of designs with Franz.

This is Mexico: The Stars of the Mexican Bicentennial. These beautiful and serene videos truly capture the wonder and magic of the beautiful land of Mexico. Giving corporate welfare to the richest company in the world sets such a dangerous precedent. NYC is the economic engine of the world. Small businesses suffer for the privilege of setting up shop here. When I wouldn't answer him, he started to tell me I should go to the tourism office (called TBO) for a coupon for hotel deals.

I'm so sorry for what you're going through, I went through the same with my mom few months ago. I'm sure you know this, but if she is still lucid and can speak, please try and ask her if she'd like anything taken care of. My biggest regret was not finding the time to go through her jewelry together like she requested (she was bedridden but still energetic).

Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation / Mo Dao Zu Shi PV (Voiced)
It is late and I am slightly high-strung from editing the wiki all evening, so please forgive me if I sound more incoherent than usual...
Tumblr media
I will never not love this shot of past Wei Wuxian.
Tumblr media
OH. I was wondering why I couldn’t get a clear screenshot of this part, but it’s actually because the camera is purposefully switching between a blurry and clear view – after all, this is Mo Xuanyu drawing the lines for the ritual in his blood. He must have lost a lot of blood by that point, so it makes sense for his vision to be blurring as he does it.
Is he reciting the words needed for the ritual or is it an entirely different line altogether? I only know the words 道, 正, and 意 and that tells me nothing haha.
I really love whoever’s voice this is though! I need to listen again when I’m not loopy.
Tumblr media
That being said, there is something nice about the added touch of the gritty stone and straw scattered on it. Which is interesting, because...
Tumblr media
It seems he is doing the ritual in a very run down lean-to thing for keeping straw in the donghua, whereas he was in a warehouse in the novel.
Tumblr media
I really like the flow of the animation as he lifts his arm to expose the cuts.
Tumblr media
Ahh nice touch of (Madam Mo, I think?) dropping this trinket while running.
Tumblr media
And for a quick scene, her expression of worry/fear is really well done, I’m surprised.
Tumblr media
Is that you trying to animate corpses behind your back, Wei Wuxian.
Tumblr media
You know, he does actually look younger as Mo Xuanyu. YAY. The widening of his eyes as he turns around and sees- something- is really nicely animated, too.
Tumblr media
I have a feeling this is a derpy CGI fight scene. But it’s over so quickly and the figures so small that it doesn’t really look bad.
Tumblr media
The corpses are wonderfully, appropriately creepy.

T-that eye. rolling in her head. I’m glad this is only animated lol. It’s creepier when you see it move, go watch it!
Tumblr media
LOOK, why if it isn’t my second favorite Extra character in the series! (poor Jiang Cheng you’re second in everything. I don’t know if he wins in prissiness either, but he has that vibe going strong in this screenshot).
Tumblr media
lol shocked Mo!Wuxian (what else am I supposed to call him)
Tumblr media
I don’t know why but I LAUGHED UNCONTROLLABLY for about five seconds when I saw Lan Wangji’s face appear omg I need sleep.
but uh, he is indeed so pretty?? and shiny. don’t forget shiny.
I love the cloud pattern on his headband.
I could attempt to say something about that look in his eyes, but I’m not Lan Xichen so I won’t try.
OH HE BLINKED. It was so quick I almost missed it.

Sorry, lots of derpy Jin Lings. Maybe someone else will be able to get a better screenshot (or gifs!) than me. This is a very nice sequence though and I wanted to see his sword up close.
Tumblr media
Someone gif his cute little laugh!
Tumblr media
OH NO IT’S HEAVEN’S SMILE. Waaait is this supposed to be 15 year old Wei Wuxian? Or is this Mo!Wuxian or- I’m confused.
I’m fairly certain those lines were spoken by 15 year old Wei Wuxian when he was standing on the wall and trying to bribe Lan Wangji.
Wait, this is 15 year old Wei Wuxian. You can tell by the hair/fringe. His is different from Mo!Wuxian’s. Wei Wuxian’s face also tends to be a tiny bit longer in some shots than Mo!Wuxian’s.
Anyways, I really need sleep. I somehow thought Lan Wangji’s FACE was FUNNY.

BTS’ Love Yourself Poster Theories
Version 1 theory:
JK: “The day i want to go to that place, where my heart leads me to.”
Suga: “Don’t come closer, you will become unhappy”
Jimin: “I lied because i thought there was no way you would love someone like me.”
V: “Would you not have left me ? If i had made a different choice.”
Jin: “If i could turn back time, i want to be the best man in the world.”
 RM: "It’s not the right time now, i am going to watch you only from behind.“
 J-hope: “If you can shine. I am okay.”
If i made it into a short story:
 That was the day i want to go to that place, where my heart leads me to. Yet, i hope you don’t come closer, don’t come with me because you will be unhappy. So, I lied to you to keep you away, because i thought there was no way you would love someone like me. I was glad you stayed away but I sometimes wonder, would you not have left me ? If i had made a different choice. If i could turn back time, i want to be the best man in the world for you. However, it is too late, is not the right time now, so i am just going to watch you only from behind. As long as you can shine, i will be okay.
Moral of the story:
BTS were torn between their choices.
If i relate it back to BST MV (Final Jin Scene)
“Man muss noch Chaos in sich haben, um einen tanzenden Stern gebären zu können” :You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star.
The chaos is the inability to make a choice/decision. (Read my BST theory)
Version 2 theory 
Love yourself is the continuation of BTS I Need you & Run era! (My fav eras!)
 I need you & run & spring day MV + lyrics + analysis
“Why do i fall in love and say goodbye alone?  Why do I need you again although I know that i am gonna be hurt?” (I need you  lyrics are BOLD)
+
“ Curse me, this foolish destiny!  You make me cry cry, Love is a lie lie, Don’t tell me bye bye” (Run lyrics are italicized)
+
“I Miss you.” (Spring day lyrics have normal font)
Suga: “Don’t come closer, you will become unhappy” 
I will stop, I don’t want you anymore
Please get out of here.
Just burn me out, yes.
Keep pushing me away.
Yes, i hate you. You who left me.
I will erase you because it hurt less then resenting you.
Suga is sitting in a tunnel and with dressing very similar with i need you era. This emphasises on the fact tha it is really a continuation of I need you! So remember this quote: “ There’s light at the end of every tunnel” which matched BTS theme of “Love youself”. Suga is still stuck in his past and unable to move on, if he finally gets himself up, he would be able to love himself.
Question is: Would he be able to do it? 
I am waiting for the MV
V: “Would you not have left me ? If i had made a different choice.” I’m sorry (I hate u) I love you (I hate u) Forgive me
Memories are crumbling like dried flower leaves
How much more do I have to wait? How many more nights do I have to stay up? Until I can see you? Until I can meet you?
You know it all, you are my best friend
-
V is definitely related to the run era because look at the puddles around him and river behind him. Remember his drowning scene in Run and prologue?
His reflection is seen in the water and his buddy all along was namjoon and namjoon solo song was titled “reflection” coincidence? i think not.
Tumblr media
RM: "It’s not the right time now, i am going to watch you only from behind.“
It goes round & round, why do I keep coming back Whatever I do, I can’t help it It’s definitely my heart, my feelings but why don’t they listen to me please, I’ll treat you well
It’s too late, too late, I can’t live without you
Seeing each other for once is now so hard between us.
Namjoon is definitely related to spring day. (Spring day train scene)
Remember V’s starting scene is spring day?
The train that namjoon was on left (RM poster)  and V took in the last memories of him by leaning against the railway. If V had made a different choice, would namjoon have stayed?
Namjoon had to go, so he promised he would watch V only from behind.
Tumblr media
Jin: “If i could turn back time, i want to be the best man in the world.” Girl please rather say me goodbye
I don’t have the courage 
Let me not go back ever
Please stay there a little longer
-
Jin is alone like usual, his background is a garden. Remember in run era he was the only one wearing shoes in the grass and in wings era he was the only one not wearing shoes. He is dead, and if he could turn back time he would be the best man in the world for his friends (He was the cause of the separation of BTS members) > Read my theory on Spring Day.
Usually, their concept photos would be at the same area but for love yourself, they were all separated. > Read my theory on Spring day concept photos.
Jimin: “I lied because i thought there was no way you would love someone like me.” 
I can’t help it.
This is all i can do anyway
All i know is how to love you
But i can’t really let you go yet.
-
Jimin is related to his short flim : lies > Read my theory so i don’t have to explain again.
He was associated with rain, water throughout the eras. He now have an umbrella to block these away suggesting that he is finally able to love himself? No longer trapped in the expectations of others > (Read my theory on lies to understand)
“There’s a rainbow after every storm.”
JK: “The day i want to go to that place, where my heart leads me to.”
Let’s run run run again! It’s okay to fall  Let’s run run run again! It’s okay to get hurt
I am chasing butterflies, so lost in dreams
Show me the way, please stop me.
I’ll be there to see you
I’ll come for you
-
Jungkook is obviously in i need you era, i am guessing you all know about his accident scene so i won’t explain it.
J-hope: “If you can shine. I am okay.”
It’s alright even if i can’t have you (J-hope didn’t sing this part but this lyrics was shown on his scene.)
-
J-hope is related to young forever, with the plane and fence.
I am guessing J-hope is able to love himself after trying to protect the members thus, his carefree self.
Extra:
“I’ll see you.”
“I’ll get back to you.”
“I don’t want you to leave me alone”
Somebody coined this from the poster so my interpretation is that the boys are gonna be reunited after separating.
-
Summary
The boys are trying to love themselves, some have done so, yet some are still trying. J-hope, Jimin and Jungkook look up because they have found a reason to do so, found a reason to love themselves after all the ordeals they faces in the previous era. Taehyung, Suga, Jin look down because they are still trying to find a reason to love themselves.
Namjoon on the other hand, looks just right in front of him, neither up or down.This is because he knew what loving himself meant, but he also know that just loving yourself is not enough, there will be times we would hate ourselves and there are people who hate us: “I wish i could love myself.”
He knew he can love himself, but what happens after that?
The bliss of loving oneself is merely temporary.
