#jing lin icons

[geneticcatalyst]

ok i know someone has probably already done this nif commentary since the drama's nearly 10 years old but the snow motif is everything and i was really watching for it on my rewatch and of all the snow scenes the iconic argument in ep33 goes so hard.

so i was reading cyn-lynn.blogspot . com 's nif recap and review and it defines the snow as a symbol of 'corruption'. i agree. but to expand on that, the snow is a bad omen- it covers things up, it sows confusion, things are lost or unseen because of it. it conceals truth and buries justice. episode 33 is almost a breaking point in the relationship between mei changsu and prince jing, because they can't communicate openly, and feel that the other doesn't understand. the true feelings can't be unburied, they are going unseen. and the way that the characters move through the setting- the snow- is amazing.

mei changsu waits outside prince jing's mansion, surrounded by snow, insisting on speaking with him. prince jing is inside, mei changsu stands under… the shelter of a doorway into the courtyard? not sure what the terminology is here, i was reading about siheyuan trying to figure it out but no luck. it is snowing all around mei changsu (and zhen ping)- the establishing shot shows snow both falling in front of and behind them in this view through the shelter. it is snowing between mei changsu and prince jing (in the main building across the courtyard). each in their little bubbles of shelter, but separated by the snow, and the current bad blood.

finally- after lie zhanying has crossed between them as a mediator- prince jing leaves the main house, goes out into the snow, and then out of the snow again- entering mei changsu's shelter. he has taken the initiative (after some prodding) to make an effort to clear the confusion away and make himself understood. the snow still falls all around them, but now they are together in the shelter to talk. however, there's still discord. prince jing insists that mei changsu understand that he intends to save wei zheng. mei changsu acquiesces in spite of- because of- a major piece of concealed miscommunication: prince jing believes it is what lin shu would want. that one stays buried in the snow for now. but prince jing refuses his terms (that jing manor cannot be involved) because he doesn't trust mei changsu not to let anything happen to wei zheng- not approving of the handling of the duchess' assault and his mother's punishment, prince jing's understanding of mei changsu's whole character is corrupted. confused. concealed by the snow.

after making this opinion clear, and suggesting they end their relationship, prince jing turns and strides out into the snow. they attempted communication and clarity together in the sheltered space, but didn't quite get there. prince jing's corrupted image of the truth remains as he walks into the snow again. mei changsu follows him without hesitation, unwilling to let the misunderstanding continue. he needs to make prince jing see and accept that if prince jing attempts the rescue on his own it will be a disaster and only spill more blood (and then how will he face lin shu?). this is the absolute truth. prince jing knows it when he hears it and turns away to step out of the snow- back into shelter (with convenient pillar to hit), back into clear-eyed understanding of the situation. mei changsu is right behind him, offering up, finally, that he understands prince jing's strong feelings on the matter (wanting to make up for his inability to help at meiling). and that's the key- mei changsu joins him, mostly out of the snow again, and promises his sincerity again. this time, prince jing can accept both his sincerity and that he will need mei changsu to save wei zheng. leaving the corruption and confusion of the snow behind them, they finally go inside to talk.

the snow is a bad sign. it's what buried truth and justice for 13 years, what covers up the current corrupt dealings at court, and what almost derails the fight to uncover the chiyan case and bring it back into the light- certainly if prince jing had never spoken to mei changsu again- if he also got caught and confused by the snow- meiling would have stayed buried forever. but instead, they found their way out of the snow together, even without the help of mei changsu's concealed identity. if all of that symbolism is intentional in the set- the buildings, the courtyard- and knowing this drama i think it is- it's exquisite.

#the snow post #thats my onion anyway #nirvana in fire #nif tag #im sure this take is already out there but i had to get it out of my brain for my own sanity. so. two cakes scenario i guess

All these fake license plates are available for purchase online, in case you consider Zhao Yunlan a style icon.

Curiously enough, the plates in SID HQ aren't there in episode 2. As far as I can tell, that's the only episode where that particular corner of the room is both visible and empty-walled. I don't know, maybe Lin Jing made something else explode and knocked everything off the walls for like the third time this week, but hadn't yet been sufficiently yelled at enough to bother going and putting them all back up again.

Michael Eade is a contemporary figurative landscape painter from New York. Eade has his unique style that distinguishes his landscape artwork. He studied the egg tempera painting technique, an archival, and stable mediums, that utilize egg yolk. Eade integrates and incorporating in his artworks metal leaves, raised 22k gold leaf, raised copper and aluminum leaf on wood panel. He also explores different mediums, extracts nurse logs, and stumps out of his paintings to create editions varie (EV) in porcelain.

The exhibition touches on some of the most important topics the origins, the roots that linked humans in space and time on Earth, and the awareness of individuals as part of this connection and the universal cycle of life. Inevitably the representation of nature and the landscape, its exploration touch the spirit of nature and the themes of creation, rebirth, renewal, and the cycles of life. 

In Tree of Life Reflected, 2018, Eade’s iconic “Tree of Life” his rendering of this tree is inspired by his study of the ancient fruit forests.

From 2010, Eade began to study and depict an ancient fruit forest in the forests of the western Tian Shan mountains, at the border of Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, and China. DNA analysis has pinpointed that the first wild apple trees sprouted on Tian Shan mountain.

From 2010, Eade began to study and depict an ancient fruit forest in the forests of the western Tian Shan mountains, at the border of Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, and China.

This area is the genetic origin of over 300 wild fruit and nut species on our planet, literally a “Garden of Eden“.

Central Asian areas played a key role in human history. Fruits were brought to Western Countries by traders traveling the Silk Road from China between 4,000 and 10,000 years ago.

The wild forests on Tian Shan Mountain have evolved species very resistant to drought and are a symbol of abundance, the earth’s bounty, and the origin of life. Central Asia’s fruit tree species are in danger of extinction.

Around 90% of the fruit and nut forests of Central Asia have been destroyed in the past fifty years.

Is an urgent necessity to save them from destruction since these wild forests are a precious testimony of cultural biodiversity.

Tian Shan mountain wild forest persists today despite thousands of years of deforestation and fires mainly intended to clear land for farming. Learning all of this inspired Eade to visually eulogize this botanical Eden and started his series – “The Wild Fruit Forest – Tree of Life”. He transformed an apple tree into “The Tree of Life”.

Apple represents an important symbol since the beginning of the history of human cultures. Apple fuelled pagan myths, the biblical narrative, fairy tales, and popular legends, and has become part of the collective imagination as a powerful and ambivalent symbol.

The evolution of the symbol of the apple transforms it into the forbidden fruit, of desire, discord, passion, knowledge; the fruit of love, health, gratitude, magic, immortality, redemption; food of the gods, food that quenches and nourishes, a source of power and prosperity, but also of simplicity and mortality.

The place he paints could be one in which all the mythological stories and legends could have been unraveled, a sort of lost paradise and navel of the world, where we could have been once in a lifetime in a dream.

Methuselah (2019) is his interpretation of the “Methuselah Tree”, a real bristlecone pine found in the mountains of eastern California. This tree of over 4,800 years is one of the oldest forms of life.

Bristlecone pines thrive where other plants cannot grow.

The tree is represented in all its majesty in center stage on the canvas and in a perfect moment of idyllic tranquility.

The tree has painstakingly gilding both the sprouting and fully developed leaves.

In a single moment, we can see the balance of all its vital essence, its own natural evolution that led it to a stage of persistence and relevance that for us to be human is calculable as a stage of immortality and eternity.

The climate, the years, the time have created the figure that we now see, but we cannot perceive all the changes because we live time differently.

The tree seems to us immutable as if it had never really changed, therefore it is perennial and has a timeless nature.

It has always been there and will be there always.

“Change of Season, no. 2”, (2016) is a large artwork where inter-woven branches bearing colorful changing leaves of fall depicting a mature ornamental cherry tree, a view that artists used to see by every day.

Eade brought leaves back to his studio to create works joining his personal life with a larger universal idea of a metaphor for the cycle of life.

The creation showcase Eade’s mastery of naturalistic detail, where intertwining leaves and branches shine in radiant greens, golds, reds and brown hues.

Inspired by nature and the cycles of life “Sunset and Gilded Nurse Log” (2017) explore and expand on artist fascination with fallen trees which, as they decay, provide an ecological harbor facilitating healthy growth and sustainability of many different plant species seedlings.

The nurse log symbolizes renewal and rebirth in the world’s ecological cycle system.

He usually gilded in silver or gold the log, highlighting its metaphorical importance as a self-circulating eco-system.

The circle of life is Nature’s way to take and give back to the earth.

The circle of life is Nature’s way to take and give back to the earth.

Plants, on every little piece of land, experience an endless circle of germination, growth, blossom, reproduction, death, and renewal: rebirth happens every day and we can hear the buzz of life.

The number of details is impressive and incredible, almost as if the artist wanted to invite us to use a magnifying glass to appreciate the macros of the micro details he created.

The scene inside leads to synaesthesia, where you can feel the fragile and vulnerable infinite universe of life.

Pine Tree Sapling (Small) (2019) is from a new series Eade started this year depicting the renewing power of fire.

In the painted scene, green saplings sprout from and around a burnt and destroyed trunk. Plants and leaves are painted and realize in such a way as to give a three-dimensionality texture.

The fire has the power to utterly destroy as seen in the recent mega-fires in California and Brazil’s devastating broad clearing of the rainforest.

However, naturally burning forest fires clear the forest floor and provide nutrients for surviving plants and newly sprouting life, thus maintaining undamaged the world cycle of life.

Eade describes a challenging concept: environmental balance has its own energetic ecological system. The natural world around us has its own rules to self-renew, reborn, and regenerate.

Michael Eade’s egg tempera paintings with their intense color and luminosity bring to mind medieval miniatures or Illuminated manuscript thanks to super-clarity realism given by the details but also by the lights and shadows in the various shades of colors and the use of metal leaves.

He takes care of every single detail with precision just like the smaller decorative ornaments of manuscripts and into the ancient books of the Middle Ages. Eade’s paintings have a great sense of depth that arouses a sense of three-dimensionality given by precision like the fine embroideries on silk.

Furthermore, the precision and delicacy of his lines evoke the signs of ancient calligraphy art.

Viewers are brought into lush, dreamy otherworldly landscapes, between fantasy, reality, and memory, into a vision of nature is close up and highly detailed.

His worlds have natural elements that are all suspended in a state where time-lapses and an instant becomes eternal.

He opens a temporal doorway to embark on a journey to the origins to meditate in the before, here and now, and after. In just one moment simultaneous coexist past, present, and future.

Planet Earth, from what we know so far, is the only one in our galaxy with a soo huge variety of flora and fauna and therefore our task should be to protect it. In all of Michael Eade’s artworks, we can have a sign of what we could lose as we continue to threaten our environment.

The exhibition curated by Liang Hai is on view through November 10, 2019. You are welcome to stop by!

The gallery will hold, during the exhibition a series of events that closely connected to the theme, including the flower and tea ceremonies hosted by Yezi and Lanzhi Dai on October 5th, Zuoliang Liu’s flute solo concert on October 19th, and the Di Zhao’s opera solo concert on November 2nd.

Taking a visual tour to Michael Eade’s show exhibition, thanks to his utopian vision, it’s possible to immerse in an unknown world but with a familiar aspect of cultural and emotional consciousness of nature.

His paintings can connect viewers with the inner world and therefore with an inseparable part of spiritual life.

The journey into nature, the inspiration in the mysterious beauty of nature is a journey not only to the origins of plants, planet Earth and our roots but also within our soul.

Everything is intertwined.

The visual journey in nature can turn into an occasion and moment of reflection and meditation, a return to our origins and our inner world.

I loved your thoughts while watching NiF and now we're blessed with you reading TGCF <3 Is your askbox still open for LYB meta? If so, please anything on marquis Yan?

(takes deep breath, yells)

I LOVE MARQUIS YAAAAAAN

the man is a myth, a legend, an icon. He survives the Chiyan massacre, despite being deeply associated with all of the guilty parties. At the age of twenty, he single-handedly dismantled an enemy alliance, generating the military opportunity that Lin Xie took to thoroughly thrash the opposing armies of three separate kingdoms

he roasts Xia Jiang, and Xia Jiang lets him walk away unscathed

I’ve yelled in the tags now and then about how much I love LYB’s secondary and tertiary characters; they are so vibrant, so diverse in personality and the social spaces they walk, and most of all, they’re independent agents. Often, stories premised on the vastly superior intellect of the protagonist resort to illustrating said superior intellect by dumbing down the characters around them, until you get the impression that in this entire city/state/fictional world, only our protagonist can actually get shit done and everyone else is just passively standing around waiting for the protagonist to round the corner with the plot.

Not so in LYB--LYB is full of characters with their individual motives, their own schemes and goals and stratagems. Plans are set into motion, ambushes laid in the dark. This allows for our protagonists to be caught flat-footed, to have to scramble to salvage what they can from an enemy ploy.

It makes the world feel real, the shifting political landscape dynamic and dangerous.

Yan Que is one of those characters--profoundly clever, capable, and courageous, but also strong-willed, bitter, moved by both a powerful moral conviction and a long-hidden desire for vengeance. He’s one of the few characters in the show that really comes at Mei Changsu, claws out, in their conversations (at least, until he learns who Mei Changsu is really working for) and for that, I respect the hell out of him.

He’s not perfect, by any stretch of the imagination; his own personal vengeance has blinded him to the alienation of his son, a heedlessness for the consequences of his actions. But over the course of the show, we get to see him change--we get to see him spend more time with Yan Yujin, for him to slowly thaw and come around to dabbling in politics again, for him to regain faith and hope and conviction.

Though much of the show is focused on exactly how Mei Changsu dethrones one high minister after another, one prince after another, just as much of his strategy revolves around winning over supporters to the formerly unfavored Prince Jing. By slowly securing Yan Que’s allegiance and trust, Mei Changsu wins Xiao Jingyan an extremely powerful ally. Look, not many people can play Xia Jiang, but Yan Que did it on like, a week’s notice. The excellence. The intellect. The power. The command.

In a world of martial artists, of warriors and generals and bloodied spears and nocked bows and knives in the dark, Yan Que proves that you don’t have to carry a blade, or command droves of soldiers, to be one of the most powerful people in the entire state.

#LYB meta #y'all Yan Que is SO COOL

[lansizhuis]

Do you have any weilan drama hcs vs weilan novel hcs? Also what are your thoughts on the zhenhun japanese audio drama news?

as you already know i lowkey screamed about this ask yesterday hahahaha and i had to pause and take some time or else im gonna cry that im having zhenhun asks hahahaha (and i got your ficlet prompt!! imma write it soon hehe)

I’m gonna go with the easiest question first - my thoughts on the upcoming JP audio drama. Man, I was so skeptical when I saw that post on weibo and admittedly just scrolled past it. But then I saw some weilan personal accts I follow that shared it so I had to check JJWXC but couldn’t see it. And I had to bombard my friend to check it on their app despite her not being in the zhenhun fandom lmao (i owe her my first born’s hair lol) and the rest is history akdaskjf OKAY so I was honestly hoping maoerfm would take it and despite being very unlikely - i was also hoping zhu yilong and bai yu would still voice weilan given that they didn’t need VAs when they did the drama and also I love the two of them. I also really was hoping to hear the iconic lines as is from the novel (thank you xiao bai for recording yourself saying the confession scene on your own jfc long ge it’s just 2 words from you please keep up haha). BUT YOU KNOW WHAT - I’M TAKING WHAT I CAN GET FROM A NOVEL PUBLISHED WAY BACK 2012. I’m super excited for it! I hope they get really good VAs  and idc if they’re new or unknown so long as they capture novel!weilan very well. And I was informed that JP audio dramas aren’t like CN ones where there’s an online platform we pay for but they’re more on physical copies they sell and well looks like I’m back to JP shipping world now haha

[NOTE: WILL BE NSFW-ISH]

DRAMA HEADCANONS- well duh first of all that crap ending doesn’t exist hahahaha- weilan is def canon and istg kunlun taught past shen wei how to bj like all that lollipop references esp when they met with all that hair?? kunlun was past shen wei’s first and only lmao - this makes things interesting now bc present shen wei with zhao yunlan would def know the best ways to pleasure that man-child bc he already knew from the past hahahaha- it’s already obvious but while shen wei is reserved and all controlled in public, zhao yunlan always managed to make him snap and eyyy zhao yunlan ain’t complaining with that aggressive hot papapa (thirsty fckr lol)- the entire SID are their adopted children and the “kids” always run to shen wei when zhao yunlan threatens to cut their bonus- but also the “kids” are def way more scared of shen wei aka the infamous black cloaked envoy and runs back to their shameless man-child of a dad bc hey as much as zhao yunlan threatens them, he’s never really cut their bonuses and he’d save them in an instant anytime anywhere despite his teasing (shen wei though? they’d all get legit scolded and punished for bad moves haha he’s def the disciplinarian)- technically, ever since the secret got out between weilan, shen wei had been staying over on the apartment in front of his *coughs* bc 1) someone needs to make sure zhao yunlan doesn’t die of poison and bacteria from his pig pen of a place; and 2) zhao yunlan is there (already canon but let’s make it that he cooks and prepares his stuff everyday)- again, that crap end didn’t happen and they both have a happy ending

NOVEL HEADCANONS- one of my all-time favorite stuff about them is when shen wei embraces his ghost nature and goes all dark on zhao yunlan that he’d sometimes whisper his dark fantasies like “i just want to lock you up” but zhao yunlan is a thirsty fckr and the biggest shen wei apologist so he just goes “das hot babe”- or when they’re in the middle of papapa and shen wei goes “sometimes i just want to eat you up to make you a part of me forever” and zhao yunlan responds with a grin “yeah? you should start with my pretty, pretty eyes” and shen wei just snaps back to his controlled self bc wtf zhao yunlan you’re not supposed to find that hot??? are you okay???- all their SID children (yes they def adopted that ragtag team lmao) has walked in on them doing it at least once - da qing complains the most bc he ends up seeing them the most (”i dont wanna see your dumb ass” “u fat fuq, no one told you to come in - and my ass isn’t dumb, it’s perk! right xiao wei?)- zhao yunlan is so mouthy to his complements to shen wei (he already does in canon but hey let’s amplify it) and everyone in the vicinity esp the SID team wretches whenever he goes “xiao wei! my love, my heart, my soul, my kidney, my toes, my -” “STOP ALREADY”) and shen wei is blushing and asks him to “ah-lan, please don’t be so shameless in public” “so in private, it’s okay?” and eyyy shen wei actually really loves it (spoiler: SID doesn’t)- once, zhao yunlan cuts everyone’s bonus so he can afford this expensive af gift to shen wei (only wang zheng knows but she’s a sweetheart so she only tells sang zan but sang zan accidentally spills to da qing and well chaos ensured after that)- weilan is forever in honeymoon- zhao papa and shennong-bo as canon still doesn’t like shen wei aka their son-in-law and always tries to drag their son away from him “shen wei is the ghost slayer who’s an abomination” “you dont have all the facts” “which are?” *zhao yunlan snuggling to shen wei “i love him”- i actually really like gui mian/ghost face/the twin and i hoped he had a better role slash screen time bc c’mon!!! someone almost the same as shen wei??? all the shenanigans possible there esp since he’s a crazy ass and shen wei doesn’t like him lol and zhao yunlan just has his eyes mooning over his xiao wei- weilan would have so many kinks lmao with zhao yunlan’s shamelessness?? and shen wei’s own 5,000 year thirst and weakness against zhao yunlan?? please they’d have a veeeeery satisfying papapa life and it isn’t new that sometimes when they orgasm, an earthquake or some tsunami happens bc heyyy powerful god/ghost immortal husbands- it’s rare since zhao yunlan’s shameless but there will be times where shen wei does or says something and zhao yunlan is rendered speechless and blushes (lin jing and da qing has some recorded as blackmail material)- I NEED TO STOP HERE BC IM GONNA WORD VOMIT EVEN MORE IF NOT HAHAHAHAHA

Wuhan Creative Design Center Building News

The site here was a dormitory of Wuhan Iron And Steel Corporation (WISCO), built in Russian style 70 years ago. The target building was original No.3 primary school and located on the central axis of the community. Through various design strategies such as architecture, interior, landscape and exhibition, architects jointly tried to convey the organic renewal view, the historical view and human view.

Based on this multi-level and multi-scale positioning, the practise firstly unlock the largest public open space on the central axis, while completely retain the existing teaching buildings, demolish the playground and other buildings, and present a complete facade of the historical building on the south side. The “Honggang Hill” landscape-architectural design connects it with the city’s core facilities on the south side and reserves a main entrance as well. The “Honggang Crown” platform on the roof can visually link the Yangtze River on the north side with the entire Honggang City area on the south side.

This design specifically retains the four metasequoias on the south side of the building, and creates the visual sense of “meteasequoia forest” and conveys the deep ecological concept, by taking advantage of the location of those trees through highly reflective materials and using highly reflective materials.

The north elevation retains the original appearance of the historical building as much as possible, and shows the traces of various historical periods as much as possible, including red bricks in the 1950s, stone-washed stones in the 70s, ceramic tiles in the 90s, and contemporary steel mesh. The steel mesh not only puts a layer of “new clothes” on the building, but also let people vaguely sees its former grace though the mesh.

The “Honggang Crown” on the roof is very iconic. Firstly, it highlights “red” trait of Honggang City; Secondly, it pays tribute to Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, the representative work of WISCO 70 years ago; Thirdly, the design adheres to the concept of “structure is decorative”, which is neither excessively designed, but can also demonstrate the technological achievements of today’s Wuhan precision manufacturing.

The entrance landscape is firstly descended and then ascended. The atmosphere created by “yesterday’s eaves” gives people the illusion that they are walking over the grass land when they were still children and playing games with cats and clouds on the red roof. The partially replaced glass tiles evoke the memories of going to the house and uncovering tiles when being children. It is unique when combined with luminous lighting.

The main entrance of the building was redesigned with red brick. On the one hand, old materials were used to show the warmth of history; On the other hand, a variety of new tiling techniques were tried to express contemporary design concepts. Many innovative architectural structures are hidden in jagged tiles and arc-shaped rain sheds.

The overall interior design is based on the concept of keeping the original spatial scale as much as possible. In order to achieve such a goal, extremely high requirements are placed on the electromechanical design. The overall interior design style explored dialogue between the ruggedness of history and the exquisiteness of fashion, showing a unique artistic tension.

The spiral staircase with the theme of “Honggang Spirit” is the soul of interior design, also an unresisting checkpoint for tourists. As a vertically linked spiral staircase, the side is wrapped with red steel plates. In two months, the design has undergone four plan revisions. The new structural system and the continuous arc design from top to bottom show the agile effect of Honggang spirit.

Sunset Rollercoaster - Teahouse｜Beat X Beat from chiao chen on Vimeo.

Behind the release of their newest album, Soft Storm, Sunset Rollercoaster sits down to talk about their song “Teahouse.” The band takes a welcomed detour on the album to find their comfort zone on this track- a short and sweet arrangement brimming with a healthy dose of their iconic musical twists and turns. They make use of this song and film to sell a simple idea: “Don’t ever leave me in the Teahouse.”

what’s fantastic? jin ling just straight up letting wei wuxian go immediately after his uncle’s like “if he escapes while ur guarding him i’m gonna break ur legs”

zero fear. full dedication to apparently one of the only noble principles jin ling seems to have so far, the ‘well-i-owe-u-a-life-for-a-life since you did save me from the cave wall cask of amontillado style’. 

also iconic is wei wuxian being like ‘by the way i am deeply sorry for my stupid callous words about your mom. i really fucked that up, i’m so sorry.”

then as soon as lin jing’s like ‘whatever i’m a TOUGH COOKIE people say WORSE you ain’t special it DIDNT HURT’ (liar), wei wuxian just knocking the kid out the instant he turns around.

cause he’s gotta save him from the curse on his leg, and all. 

also, even tho uncle jiang cheng is the picture of ANGER, i can’t help but love him still. also the absolute energy, of finding ur supposedly-dead brother who you helped by letting him fall to his death by interfering with his admirer holding onto him - the energy of finding this guy who you are endlessly hurt by, who everyone in the world pretty much hates, and just taking him back to ur house to have a private scolding with. like, wei wuxian is just chilling in there. if ANY other person had found him, and recognized him, you KNOW they would’ve broken out like chains and rope and put him behind locked metal and put like 20 guards MINIMUM on him, and immediately called for all the other clan leaders to show up asap! But jiang cheng is just like ‘whatever its just my stupid stupid bro, only think i’m threatened by is the Absolute Audacity he has for coming back to life! the NERVE of him, to have mentioned yanli is dead to her SON i HATE this idiot BROTHER OF MINE 16 years dead and HE STILL IS THIS STUPID’ 

and sits down with him, casual as you please, just glaring. 

like anyone else in this whole world of people would be taking precautions galore around a reanimated wei ying, but jiang cheng is just frustrated and disappointed and reliving the losses of all his family members all over again. (to be fair, i think him reminiscing though just makes wei wuxian reminisce, so in the end they were both just real depressed bros sitting in that room contemplating how they both definitely felt like the whole jumping off a cliff and screaming ‘go to hell’ thing were justified to them at the time). 

when i watched episode 1 and saw jiang cheng say ‘go to hell’ i had expectedly presumed that meant he hated wei wuxian. but after episode 33 i think, in that moment, they were both just so heartbroken over yanli. and i think actually, jiang cheng probably didn’t want to lose his only other sibling, his only family left. but i think jiang cheng probably felt as hopeless as wei wuxian, and probably wanted to go over the cliff himself too. but unlike wei wuxian, he had a whole clan to lead and take care of and keep alive, and he had yanli’s son to help, so he had to stick around. he had people he still had to take care of. whereas for wei wuxian, i’m sure he saw losing the last of the wen clan as another huge family loss - after of course the jiang parents - and so losing yanli was like way PAST the final nail in the coffin for him. he already lost the only people he’d been taking care of - the wen clan. it would have been like if jiang cheng had lost everyone in jiang clan except yanli. 

So then, when yanli, someone they both grew up with and always looked up to and tried to get approval from? When she died too, wei wuxian probably felt like he had no one left depending on him or that he sought approval from. No one he considered family, anyway. And again, even though jiang cheng felt the same Exact loss in a way, he has SO many more people actively depending on him as their leader in that moment. Like all of his life once his father dies, jiang cheng has to consider his responsibilities as leaders in contrast to his wants and needs to be on the same side as his siblings (things which start colliding over and over when wei wuxian goes against the 4 clans). I think that day on the cliff, Jiang Cheng wished he could have left with wei wuxian - but his responsibilities kept him there, alive. Just like his responsibilities kept him as part of the 4 clans when wei wuxian left. Just like his responsibilities kept him from publicly being able to keep wei wuxian in his life, like his responsibilities kept him from ever pursuing Wen Qing. So in episode 34, when they sit alone in that room together - there’s no threat really, because jiang cheng gets why wei wuxian jumped. And he’s not really angry at wei wuxian, so much as angry at how his responsibilities and wei wuxian’s toward the people he protected, clashed, and then ultimately all added up to killing Yanli’s husband, then her. 

I think jiang cheng is a lot angrier at life in general, than at his brother specifically - angry that because of the roles they adopted in life, Yiling Patriarch and Jiang Clan Leader, there is no way for them to ever have an easy uncomplicated relationship or interaction with each other. Them sitting in the privacy of that room, Wei Wuxian being scolded by Jiang Cheng like old times, like all the time when they grew up and Cheng yelled at him - that was the closest they could ever get to normality with each other again. In their complicated roles publicly, in society, in how the world views them, yes Cheng has to bound Xian up in the purple lightning and order a full guard and act like he’s taking the situation as gravely dangerous and important. In private, they’re still just two brothers, who never ever see quite eye to eye, but would never hurt each other and wouldn’t view each other as threats. 

#the untamed lb #im on like ep 34 #anyway 32-33 ripped my heart out #im real excited to finally get to see the kids tho #especially now that i realize shizui is yuan is WEIS KIDDO #no wonder he's the sweetest kindest best darling #hes the one good thing that came out of the disaster that was the wen-sunshot-wei-wuxian monstrosity of events #meta #i ended up writing a lot about jiang cheng #but i really!!! #like him as a character!!! #he's a great example about how public responsibility can clash with private love or loyalties #he constantly struggles to do both the INSTANT he becomes clan leader. and its constantly wearing at him #the thing he wanted to be his whole life - leader - is the thing that makes the most trouble for him in trying to keep relationships #with the people he loves
