#the untamed episode 25

[spending-life-pretending]

The night hunt episode is literally insane. WWX and LWJ haven’t seen each other in months, and WWX is immediately like “hey let me borrow your special spouses-only headband” for no reason. Then he tries to implode their relationship bc he fears how his actions will impact LWJ, and LWJ is just like “no. I love you forever actually; I already decided.” And before WWX can take the 4-5 business days he clearly needs to process this declaration, the Jin-Jiang family drama erupts and LWJ has to calm WWX down like a drunk frat guy’s gf going “look at me. This isn’t you” over and over. And THEN WWX says goodbye ONLY TO LWJ and peaces out, and the episode ends with LWJ asking his brother for permission to kidnap WWX for a forcible spa retreat. Literally what the fuck

Many "gifts" from GG and DD

So much has happened over the past three or four days that I couldn’t even gather my thoughts together to make a post.

Of course, everyone already knows about the cameras Leica, about the number of GG's photos (18-33-28 and 18-25-23), about camping and the cake with sheep, and so on.

I want to write about some moments that especially impressed me, in addition to the main “candies” that fell upon us in abundance. This post will probably turn out to be chaotic, but I am now very impressed by everything, and there are a lot of emotions.

Everything is fake, fiction and my stupid fantasies, don’t pay attention.🤡🤡🤡

“Everything is cute, everything is cool.” We saw the phrase in the post by GG's studio: “Life is bright, everything is cute.” Less than a day has passed (namely 19 hours 50 minutes), and YBO replies: “Everything is cool collected”. And we're reminded of the old LRLG fake material where it was about "ok, you're cool, I'm cute." Can anyone say that this is the coincidence?! This is the real dialogue during short time!

Yesterday DD again showed us many photos with Leica. It would seem, why focus so much attention on it? It's funny that if you leave a comment or repost, the effect with flying small pink cameras appears on Weibo:

It occurred to me to count all the DD's photos from the trip to Paris on Weibo and Instagram (including duplicate of photos), where the camera Leica M11 is present. You won't believe. There are 23 of them. The word “coincidence” already gives me a callus on my tongue.

Yesterday DD stunned everyone with his 100500 photos around the small iron pole. Turtles on Weibo wondered why he paid so much attention to this inconspicuous place. And it turned out that it was not in vain! Of course, this is the street corner with special numbers - 23 rue Bachelet 75018.

And also the red-yellow-green dog, and DD standing proudly against the background of bicycles. When GG traveled abroad in February, there was the episode in his video where he was in front of motorcycles. Such a funny "exchange".

There are also some interesting things in the GG's birthday photos and video. For example, in some photos GG looks strikingly similar to DD. The turtles mostly took notice of this photo. If you close the right half of the face, you get an almost mystical resemblance.

But I also noticed another photo, the first time I saw it, I really thought it was DD. How can this be? It really looks like some kind of magic.

Of course, GG put on the little lion again. It is interesting that it was in this jacket that GG returned from Paris to Beijing in March (Paris again!). And it was in it that he was photographed for his birthday. And this is not the first time that the little lion appears in the GG's birthday photos. By the way, one more interesting detail: it seems that this particular jacket is hanging in the background in the famous GG's photo that captivated everyone:

The phone card case appears again:

Inscription in the sky. In GG’s video at 4:16, a certain effect appears that resembles the legendary “wangxiao” inscription; in one of the BTS of “The Untamed” GG puts his name under DD’s name and then crosses it out in embarrassment. I'm not really sure if this is intentional or just a visual effect and abstraction, but it looks very similar!

The Chinese turtles, at least, were very enthusiastic about this effect (and they are still better versed in written characters than I am). Even if it's not intentional, it looks amazing because it really does look a lot like those signatures.

At the end of GG’s vlog, the phrase appears: “So, did you come up with a name?” (所以, 想好名字了?), this seems to be a reference to the ending of The Untamed when Wei Ying said, "You need to come up with a name for this song":

Another thing that no one seems to have noticed is the DD's Douyin video. Look at the time of publication. This is the screenshot from my phone, I'm in the same time zone as Paris, in Europe. In China at this time it was 16:05. Don't you think that this is another gremlin-DD's trick - to make the post on 5.10 at 10:05, but in Paris time? In my opinion, this is quite in his style.

And a little about personal impressions.

Interesting is the photo where GG is holding the cake with sheep. This is the only photo in his first photoshoot where he is smiling. In the rest of the photos he is thoughtful, even seemingly sad, and in some places stern. Only in this photo does GG have bright and gentle expression on his face, and the special smile, the look in the other photos is completely different, tougher or directed inward of himself. Even the jeans he's wearing don't appear anywhere else except in this photo. It seems to me that this is the special photo, taken by the special person and at a different time. Can be compared with other photos supposedly taken by DD.

This is probably very subjective, but it seems to me that there is some subtle similarity in these photos. Love. Well, I think so.

BJYXSZD 💚❤️.

Hi R 🌈

I recently discovered an crazy theory about GGDD dating during DD days with uniq which completely blown my mind to be honest. Is there any CPN's behind this rumor or is it just an another fanfiction. As much as I'm convinced that BJYXSZD GGDD dating during Dad's idol days kind look far fetched to me.

Have a nice day rain ლ(・﹏・ლ)

Hi Anon!

Ah, you've stumbled across The Devil's Timeline, an interesting and often controversial theory that's been a part of the fandom for a very long time...

Fake, fan fiction, CPN.

Before I Start

There are some really aggressive people who always respond to these types of discussions in a hateful way, because of the implications of GG dating a younger DD (for example, in 2016 DD would have been 18-19 and GG would have been 24-25). It's called 'The Devil's Timeline' for a reason. If you don't like it, DON'T READ. It's really that simple.

And frankly, if you think it's crazy, outrageous and wrong for an 18 year old to be dating a 24 year old, you're not living in the real world. This is not an unusual age gap, especially between men.

Ultimately this is clowning and CPN. Not meant to be taken seriously.

Any adversarial anons will be blocked.

So What's the Theory?

Basically the theory is that GG and DD have been together for a lot longer than the generally accepted fan canon (fan canon tends to revolve around the idea that they got together during or shortly after filming The Untamed).

The Devil's Timeline doesn't have any specific set dates/times. It encompasses any timeline where GG and DD started dating prior to filming. Some people feel they might have met and started dating as far back as mid-2015, others think it happened between the 2017 DDU episode and CQL filming. So a timeline such as the one I wrote a couple of years ago would fall under The Devil's Timeline just as much as ones that claim they got together in 2015.

What's the Evidence?

As far-fetched as it might seem, there are some 'coincidences' and signs that point to the possibility that GG and DD might have met a lot earlier than the widely accepted '2017 DDU episode' meeting. There have also been fake rumors and whispers about them being together a lot longer than they claim.

For a bit of background on this theory - @accio-victuuri wrote a post detailing some of the clues, and there's also a post from @p-h03n1-x talking about some interesting posts on DD's birthday in 2016.

I know I've seen other tidbits here and there over the years, and in a perfect world I'd dig for it all and put together my own comprehensive post on this, but my drafts folder just can't take another big project.

If you look at their behavior toward each other at the booting ceremony, prior to filming, and then you look at the table read and early filming, they went from 'complete and total strangers' to being very familiar with each other almost overnight. While their natural compatibility and unique rapport make it believable that they'd be quickly very comfortable with one another, that's just a bit too quick even with compatibility as extreme as theirs.

Another thing that keeps me going back to this theory again and again is their behavior both in the 2017 DDU episode and at the booting ceremony for The Untamed. Now that I'm familiar with them and how they act in various situations, their demeanour in both situations seems a bit 👀 to me. Unnatural for them.

What it reminds me a lot of - particularly the booting ceremony behavior - is their behavior during Weibo night, when they appeared to be consciously avoiding interacting with each other (you can read about why here). That tension and overcompensating 'I'm not looking over there' kind of attitude.

In most situations where 'strangers' are put into proximity with one another - even 'acquaintances' who are not deeply connected with one another - there is some amount of totally normal, totally natural human curiosity. The other person is treated as a presence in the room that would naturally draw the eye from time to time.

Not so with GG and DD during the booting ceremony. They were an artificial amount of 'detached' from one another. Standing right next to each other and not even exchanging polite words. Even when they're both struggling with the red silk, they don't exchange any words or glances.

It comes across to me as very odd behavior, especially from them. They're both SO POLITE around others, especially someone they're going to be working closely with. Their normal, natural response in a situation like that would be to look at the other person, reassure and assist them. Not here. They act like the other person isn't even standing there. Not normal behavior IMHO.

And compare that with Weibo Night. Their behavior has the same flavor, at least it does to me.

CQL booting ceremony vs Weibo night: same energy.

Here's a video of the entire Weibo Night event. You can browse through to see how they were behaving toward each other. One example is at 1:41:30 when they go onstage to receive an award. There are also a lot of fancams from that night, you can browse around YouTube if you're curious.

During the DDU episode it's a lot harder to determine their demeanour toward each other because there's so much going on, so many other people around and the camera angles keep shifting, but there were a couple of things that caught my eye.

For one, notice at 27:00 when they're tiptoeing over the bamboo canes, when Wu Jiacheng crosses the canes he immediately steps back to the XNINE corner, while when GG crosses moments later, he naturally gravitates over to where DD is standing. 🤔

It's an automatic thing. Most people will gravitate to where they feel most comfortable in a room, just like when returning to the main area of a busy party after using the bathroom most people will head over to where their close friends or partner/spouse are standing. So in this case it's interesting that GG seems unconsciously more comfortable on DD's side of the stage than with his bandmates, even though standing over by DD means standing with the hosts of the show, which most people would feel incredibly uncomfortable doing.

Then at 32:00, when they're discussing the calligraphy tablets, GG and DD are standing next to each other in several shots. Maybe it's confirmation bias on my part, but they do not look like strangers in those shots. I can't point to any particular reason why.

And please take a moment at 4:52 to admire the adorkable way GG is frolicking while the rest of the boys are running. 🥹

Do I Believe It?

Although I go back and forth between popular canon theory (they got together during filming) and some form of The Devil's Timeline, in reality most of the time I see them as having been together long before filming. To me it's the best explanation for some of the inconsistencies we've seen, some of the behavior we've seen, etc.

You can check out my (very old, outdated) timeline post here. I make it pretty clear there that I think that they were together or at least well-acquainted with each other before filming. But given some of the BTS we've seen (and their married level of familiarity), I think it's possible or maybe even likely that they were together even earlier than what I claimed in that post.

How early? Maybe 2016. The DD's birthday posts are pretty interesting. A 20:23 kadian thanking for receiving some presents, on his birthday? 👀

And I do think the theory that they met 6/22 at a Uniq fanmeet* is an interesting one. Let's face it - 6/22 means something special to them. We know it. Could it be the day they met? It would fit.

*The rumor is that GG went to a fan meet in Guangzhou because he wanted to learn more about idols before going on XFIRE. That would have been in 2015, a couple months before XFIRE started, but I have not personally seen confirmation that such a fan meet happened on that day in that location (or that GG attended).

At the very least I think they were well-aquainted/dating between the 2017 DDU episode and CQL filming.

But I try not to restrict myself to any one particular theory. Ultimately we don't know, so why not explore different possibilities? I think it's interesting to view elements of their history through multiple different lenses, and see how those perspectives impact interpretation. I did this with my Japan trip post a while back. Since we'll probably never know for sure how or when it all started for them, why limit ourselves?

Untamed Episode 25:

Lan Zhan's: God Wei Wuixian is so hot today. So hot. God, he's looking at me with his stupid hot face and his stupid hot eyes. Look at him wanting to stand up for the Wen Clan which is against the rules but also like goes with the principles. Fuck me, I love a bad boy.

Wei Wuixian: Lan Zhan can I use your headband?? :D

Lan Zhan: *Says Nothing* FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK OMG PLEASE TOUCH IT. GOD I CAN'T LOOK AT HIM WHEN HE SAYS SHIT LIKE THIS. GOD DAMMIT. SHIT. DON'T EVEN BREATHE I'LL GIVE MYSELF AWAY.

Wei Wuixian: Hmph. :( *Goes and shows off*

Lan Zhan: I... I'm going to eat this man.

Oh shit oh no. Li xianyis choices got his sect absolutely fucked...

I'm really impressed with the choice to show the consequences of sect conflicts in the jianghu in episode 3. Early as hell. Again, I haven't seen many wuxias so I have little to compare it to. But the small amount I've seen, if anything people don't learn their lesson about blood spilt until it's the end of the world or they've fallen off the rails and their sect is torturing and killing several to dozens of innocents (see the sects in Love and Redemption, The Untamed, Word of Honor). So to show the cost of conflicts made out of anger or impulse, the consequences of choosing to fight when you could have not, in the THIRD EPISODE? Wild to me. A choice that works. I'm not even to the point where li xianyi clearly left this life

But I can already see why he would. Picture you're 25. You somehow became a sect leader. Your sworn brother was second in command. He dies. You do what a prideful leader who loved him does: you don't tolerate his murder (I'm assuming the other sect killed him if they went to conflicts over this). In most any story, you're justified in this. People would understand why you went to war: the sect killed your sworn brother (its personal), killed the second in command of your sect (so it's politically significant and can't be ignored without looking weak and bad), the sect that attacked you has a reputation for doing bad things (so the wider jianghu will support a decision to fight them), you're the gem among your peers (so you have a good chance of winning and you'd look like a completely spineless cold-hearted trash if you refused to go get payback). So you go fight the sect.

Then you almost die. You come back and half your sect is dead. It's your fault. And you couldn't really have chosen differently. But you don't want to have to choose this awful situation again. So you leave. You don't want that life anymore. It wasn't heroic. It didn't improve anything. It made you responsible for the deaths of loved ones and people who followed you thinking you'd protect and help them.

[ID: 8 gifs of Wei Wuxian from episode 25 of the show The Untamed. He unravels the black ribbon from his wrist guard, puts it up to his eyes, ties it on as a blindfold, and smirks slightly. He then turns to face the targets offscreen, with 5 arrows nocked and his bow held horizontally. He shoots all 5 of them at once while smiling, and the arrows fly towards the viewer. He then lowers his bow and steps forward. He whips off his blindfold and points his bow at something while squinting. Offscreen, he’s hit a bullseye on 5 different targets at once. End ID.]
