Fall in Love: Episode 1

notes: Spoilers!; thanks @dangermousie and @tomorrowsdrama for getting this on my radar.

It’s the mid-1920′s and we’re on an ocean liner headed for Shanghai. First the bad news: we're apparently on the ship from the Philadelphia Experiment because we've become unstuck in time- every character is dressed from a different decade. Now the good news: all the characters are hot, so we don't care.

1940's schoolgirl Mu Wan Qing sits in her cabin helpfully documenting exposition in her diary.

She's been away from Shanghai for 10 years. Dad has been made the President of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce. Previous mom- deceased. New mom- a beeyotch. She puts her diary in her Newt Scamander suitcase and heads topside for breakfast.

Up on deck we meet 1950's teddy boy Tan Xuan Lin who is drinking wine at 9am with his girl pal 1930's Betty Boop.

Boop excuses herself with a tummy ache and heads backs to their cabin. Unbeknownst to her, Tan Xuan Lin follows. Now the fun begins.

Boop is in their cabin trying to pick the lock of Tan Xuan Lin's suitcase (which incidentally looks exactly like Mu Wan Qing's- will we get a classic switch-a-roo? Here's hoping). Tan Xuan Lin catches her and she gives us some character background on him- he’s the mastermind behind a coup plot, but she wants to stop him and have his hotness all for herself. Unimpressed and undeterred, Tan Xuan Lin slashes her throat(!) with what looks like an army medal(!!). Wow, this drama is going hard right out of the gate- I love it.

boop-oop-a-doop you're dead

Mu Wan Qing finds herself in a hostage situation when she accidentally walks in on Tan Xuan Lin stuffing Boop's body under the bed. She calls for help and they narrowly avoid getting caught/rescued by the 1980's OL housekeeper.

“sorry, I thought this was the Shomuni set”

Tan Xuan Lin assumes Mu Wan Qing is Japanese and only speaks English to her (I have no idea what that’s about). The ship docks, they disembark and go their separate ways- almost.

Tan Xuan Lin's ride gives us his entire backstory before they even get into the car. The short version? Wu Xiang Ying and Tan Xuan Lin are ride or die military bros.

I too run through the history of my friendship with whomever I'm picking up at the airport

Tan Xuan Lin suddenly realizes Mu Wan Qing understood Chinese so he re-kidnaps her, then looks through her suitcase.

“wow, you crossed the ocean with just a single outfit, a fountain pen, a diary, eight tubes of lipstick and your mom’s ashes”

They then check into a hotel as husband and wife.

We meet our second male lead, the very junior marshal from the Governor's House, Xu Guang Yao.

no matter what decade you're from, boy band bangs are always appropriate

In the elevator, he notices that Tan Xuan Lin and Mu Wan Qing are handcuffed together. Tan Xuan Lin plays it off:

In his room, Junior Marshal Provincial Military Governor Xu Guang Yao is congratulated on his impending engagement to Mu Wan Ting (Mu Wan Qing's step or half-sister, not sure which). But in a plot twist we could all see coming:

“no I just have resting emotional void face”

Mu Wan Qing has been handcuffed to the bed but manages to escape. Gasp! She picks up the wrong suitcase and runs out of the room, down the hall and directly into Tan Xuan Lin.

“oh what a coincidence, are you staying here too?”

The chase is on for approximately one hallway and one flight of stairs. Mu Wan Qing runs into Xu Guang Yao (literally) and shoves him into the nearest open door.

Cue my very least favorite drama trope- they knew each other as children. I'm skipping this whole hazy, over-romanticized flashback. Suffice it to say they recognize each other.

We find out what exactly was in Tan Xuan Lin's suitcase- a deployment map for the coup d’etat. Now TXL thinks that Mu Wan Qing is in league with the Governor's House. Tan Xuan Lin argues with Wu Xiang Ying- should they move up the timeline for the mutiny or try to get the map back.

Xu Guang Yao drops Mu Wan Qing off at her house. We meet evil stepmom and Mu Wan Ting, neither of whom are happy to see her.

Xu Guang Yao realizes that the suitcases have been switched and goes in the mansion with Mu Wan Qing to investigate.

They realize the suitcase has a false bottom- but before they can open it, they are interrupted by Mu Wan Ting who shoos Xu Guang Yao away. The episode ends with Xu Guang Yao stating the obvious:

geez guy, control your emotions

Bonus:

It was super nice of the Couple of Mirrors girls to let Mu Wan Qing and Xu Guang Yao use their room.

Monarch Industry

I can’t believe her, coming to him over this!

Like, if Awu’s father and husband with all their power cannot find her, then how likely is a deposed prince with no resources to do any better? Also, he isn’t allowed to leave the mausoleum.

***

WAIT. IS THIS THE HOT HUN? THE ONE THAT REGRETTABLY DIED AS SOON AS HIS HOT SELF SHOWED UP?

Looks like he’s alive and... OK, not well, mentally or physically, but alive. And still hot! And I guess evil 🔥🔥

***

Oh, and a rapist pervert too. Well, that deflated the hotness factor. It seems like being sick doesn’t stop him from getting it up over other men’s wives. Ick.

***

I want to know! 👀

But, yeah, I would be shocked not at all if they wiped out entire tribes for no reason. Golden Stage had the same thing happening, the Northern Border and the Northern General with insane amounts of power for holding it. I guess this is a common theme in Chinese fiction. And history.

***

LMAO, I love that he’s alive and well and just pretending to be insane.

***

OK, but disregarding his... uh, proclivities, god, this man is beautiful!

Like, stupid beautiful, I had to pause the episode just to look at him.

***

Him coughing up a mouthful of blood onto her face in the middle of the pandemic, coupled with the fact that they transported her to wherever this is with a plague corpse, really gave me a visceral reaction 😅😅

Anyway, he will not be raping anyone anytime soon when he’s barely alive.

***

She’s so pissed they won’t let her beat Awu to death with a log, LMAO

***

God, he’s stupid.

He wouldn’t recognise a schemer if one smacked him in the face. Which, btw, has happened. More than once.

***

I mean, he definitely needs killing, but if she had (deservedly) murdered him, his compatriots would have killed her too. Probably horribly.

***

OK, but how did this pretty explicit attempted rape scene get past the censorship board?

***

Good girl! Stab him good!

Let’s hope he dies. Or at least suffers a little. If we’re lucky it will get infected and sepsis will get him.

***

WAIT, WHAT?

How is he behind this? And how is it either saving her or Zitan? Need more clarifications, my good sir! I was so happy you woke up, but I guess that won’t be lasting long 😕

***

Just watch him hook up with this maid.

She’s already thinking about it, has been from the moment he gave her his cloak, which has since mysteriously vanished.

***

At least you know it.

***

Wait, is this Su-er’s wife?

So, he is neither gay nor impotent, just an asshole to her.

***

So beautiful 🧡

***

Oh? 👀👀

***

LORD YUZHANG COMING THROUGH!!!

***

We will all be waiting with you with bated breath 😋

***

@tomorrowsdrama it’s SO unfair that he’s so good at this 😭

Like, how am I supposed to keep track of the fact that he’s evil when he cries on screen while recounting his life’s miseries and his eyes are all red?

***

Oh, fun.

***

Eh, I very much doubt that.

I have decided I will shed a single tear for you when Xiao Qi kills you.

***

Yes, gorgeous, come and take back your screen time!

I miss you!!

This post opened my third eye about a Jane Eyre/The Devil Judge parallel, and our in tags conversation about Soo Hyun made it even more clear to me what a perfect Saint John she is (despite the name).

Maybe it was done already, and please, take it as a game.

Rem casts The Devil Judge characters into Jane Eyre:

Jane Eyre: Kim Ga on (of course)

Mr. Rochester: Kang Yo Han (as the dangerous brooding rich master of the house with a dark secret - and yes, Yo Han would totally put on the fortuneteller show just to tease Ga On about his feelings, no questions about this)

Adèle: Elijah (the spoiled kid of the house. although, Elijah is a feisty one, Adèle is not a teenager yet)

Bertha Mason: Sun Ah (the mad wife is out of the attic this time) - but also, thanks to Ga On jealous ass maybe even a dash of Blanche Ingram?

or maybe Blanche Igram as K? nah. K is probably Pilot

Mrs Fairfax: (Do even have to write it down? yes) Mrs Ji

Saint John: Soo Hyun (moral above coherence, and they repress our protagonists true nature in the name of a superiority complex they justify by being "the good ones")

Mrs Reed: A stretch, but the substitute parental figure - also, destroying the motorbike is a big Mrs Reed move

I think Lawyer Ko would be a great Richard Mason, but with the reverse plot-twist: you think I was on the same side of the psyco and the the villains gang, but no! I was on Rochester/Kang side from the get go! Ah Ah

Followers, beware. @tomorrowsdrama has joined me in thirsting over Ji Sung in The Devil Judge and I know y'all are about to bear witness to an extremely barren desert in the weeks to come.

I tag "the sexy devil is here to quench your thirst 😈" in all thirst posts for Ji Sung in this drama so filter that tag if you must.

#this has been a psa #many people are watching this drama for the young dude but I'm here for the sexy devil judge #the sexy devil is here to quench your thirst 😈#ji sung #the devil judge #kdrama

The Greatest Show

Summary: Come on, get into it.

Author's note: I haven’t been inspired to write for this fandom in a while because honestly the writers are doing amazing, everything I think of is pure filth because I am eagerly awaiting their next kiss. But episode 17 broke my brain with their squash the rumor scene, the growling and grunting that So-Bong was so unaffected by. These two need a tent, desperately. Enjoy my royal pervs, here is my offering.

p.s. picture borrowed from @tomorrowsdrama- thank you for the screenshots of this amazing moment!

He's doing what he must to survive, that's all. End of sentence. He takes no pleasure in slamming the King into the closest surface and rubbing their body against him like a cat in heat, not in the slightest. Rumors are weeds, you have to rip them out for flowers and crops to flourish. That's all they're doing, weeding the garden of Joseon so it can flourish for their future child.

That's what he tells himself as they cross paths in the royal hall, the King is flagged by the entire royal court animatedly discussing something of seemingly vast importance if their volume suggests anything. As he takes a step forward, Court Lady Choi seizes their hand halting them in place.

"Your highness you just not approach the King when he is with the Royal court. It is not proper. We just simply bow as they walk by."

But he doesn't care about propriety or appearing decent and well-behaved in front of these corrupt old bags, they are simply larger weeds that need to be disposed of. Smirking at their potential outrage, he grins evilly letting that fuel him even more before pulling up their dress to run over to their Cheoljongie. He looks bored out of his mind so it can also be considered a good deed, he's such a giving wife.

"My King!" Her voice rings out as he calls to his husband, who immediately looks over at them warmth filling those expressive eyes. Without hesitation the King bounds over to them happily, his movement only slightly faster than his usual glide ever the diligent King.

"My Queen, I have missed you."

The members of the backstabbing clan look disgruntled at the King's sudden departure, grumbling and pointing at them as if they have committed the highest crime.

If they think this is inappropriate then they're in for a huge surprise.

Looking down demurely, he thinks of his younger days when he was a junior understudy for the school play his acting prowess would come in handy now.

"Not as much as I have missed you, my love." He whispers the word of affection, reaching up to caress the King's cheeks softly making sure to appear infatuated. He has to force that after all because he doesn't do that naturally, despite what the royal maids claim. They are just confused, So-yong has a soft face that appears adoring at time despite his true emotions.

With a soft whimper he throws himself into the King's arm, feeling those strong arms encircle her small waist, lightning zips through their veins but he ignores her bodily reaction.

We're just acting, take the memo! He internally berates the other inhabitant of this hormonally charged body.

But when Cheoljong strokes their neck and easily lifts them off their feet, he gasps loudly clinging to him harder for balance and because her knees suddenly feel weak.

"Your majesty, we do not have time for such....improper dalliance. You must not do this in such a public venue." One of the old farts stage whispers sounding positively scandalized and it revs him up even further. As he feels the King starting to retreat he jumps forward, wrapping their body around the King's like a limpet.

Cheoljong's eyes sparks to life the new position placing them eye to eye, panting softly onto each other. The air between them is charged and thick like a bowl of porridge.

"Your highness, I agree you mustn't do this." Court lady Choi pleads with her, averting her eyes away from the tangled couple.

He looks over Cheoljong's wide shoulders to see the Royal court affronted and wide eyed and Court Lady Choi with a similar expression, Hong Yeon is trying desperately to smother her smile as she averts her eyes. Sending her a secret wink, he pulls the King's head forward staring hungrily at his lips.

"I cannot resist, seeing him awakens such deep passion inside of me. Just one?"

He looks at her dazed, as if he's forgotten everyone surrounding them.

"Just...one?" He questions, confusion morphing into sudden realization as he watches them slide their tongue across plush lips.

"Oh."

Ignoring the cacophony of voices around them, he closes the miniscule space between them puckering up and kissing the soft skin of the King's cheek. Cheoljong tries blindly to catch her lips when they retract but he places a slim finger on his pursed lips.

Shaking their head lightly, he starts to slide down the King's hard body feeling the tight muscles even through the layers of fabric.

"We must save the rest for later, my heart. Come and visit us soon." He rubs at his stomach fondly, staring up into Cheoljong’s red face, he looks good enough to eat.

Wait what. Who thought that? No, it's the baby talking I'm just hungry, that's enough of a show.

Bowing deeply at the men, he steps around the King who is still frozen in his spot. Gathering himself he turns to the royal court with an innocent smile, "I apologize, I could not control myself. I will take a long walk to reflect on my behavior."

They collectively stare at her with gaped mouths as she walks off regally, shoulders straight as if nothing happened. After a few steps he turns around, calling over their shoulder, "Don't keep me waiting!" And then to add the proverbial cherry on top, he curls their finger before letting out a roar to which everyone jumps looking bewildered, except the King whose eyes could pierce a hole through their face.

He looks like a starved man. Maybe they should make him some more ramyeon?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

To say he's flustered is a bit of an understatement considered the problem in his pants. Logically he understands the Queen's actions earlier, she'd merely been doing what they had both agreed to feigning affection to dissolve those erroneous rumors that were circulating the kingdom. But he would be lying if he said he wasn't enjoying this immensely.

His Queen was an enigma he had even up on fully understanding, instead choosing to accept her and all that came with her. And her feelings for him were part of his confusion, she seemed to fluctuate between her emotions without rhyme or reason. He never knew which version of her he would be receiving at any given moment. So having her acting the way he'd only imagined in his dreams was both satisfying and unsettling.

It would be most difficult to go back to their normal, he wanted her in his arms always. Desperately yearned for intimacy that didn't dissipate when the sun peeked over the horizon.

Pushing his work to the side of the table he sighs leaning back into his seat thinking about his Queen.

"Why must she be so confusing?" He groans to myself thinking about their first night together, how passionate she'd been his ears burn remembering the sharp pain of her teeth sinking it. He had bite marks in... interesting places from that heated encounter but her behavior after had been consistent only in it's in inconsistency.

Running away from him, even going as far as hiding. Then just as suddenly she stopped avoiding him and they settled into comfortable nights together. However, they hadn't been intimate since despite his many efforts, he just wanted a kiss those plush pink lips were so tempting and today they'd been so very close. He needed that kiss like he needed air, he didn't care who was around. If she had kissed him he wouldn't have controlled himself, he would have hungrily devoured.

"Your majesty it is getting late, we must leave now if you wish to see the Queen." The head eunuch interrupts his inklings, bowing low in respect.

Is he ready for this? His control feels paper thin at the moment. But he did promise and they have an image to uphold.

Gathering his strength he rises, "Alright, let us take over leave. I shouldn't keep my Queen waiting."

The walk to Daejeon Hall is short but it feels like he's traversing miles, despite his previous concerns he is now eager to see the Queen. Her face is gorgeous at all hours but there's something about her face lit with candlelight, knowing he's the only one who is allowed to see her at such hours.

Accelerating his feet, he almost races to her ignoring cries from the head eunuch in the distance. Every second not spent in her company is a second wasted.

The Queen's Court lady announces his arrival before they all bow walking backwards out of the room before sliding the doors shut.

"You took your sweet time, I told you not to keep me waiting." She glares at him, pouting slightly bringing all his attention to her mouth.

"I apologize my Queen there were pressing matters to deal with." He lies easily no attention of clarifying his meaning, she doesn't need to know that dousing his arousal was the pressing matter at hand.

"Whatever. What's more important than me?" She scoffs looking offended turning away from him.

He lowers down into a crouch, crawling across the room until they are side by side. The Queen gasps at his unexpected closeness, staring at him with wide eyes and open lips.

Grasping at her hands he stares deeply into her gorgeous eyes solemnly with no humor in his voice, "Nothing. You are most important to me, both of you." Reverently he reaches out a hand to palm at her still small belly, impatient to see her round with his seed.

Her face slowly softens as he rubs her stomach and then she places her hand atop his, no longer resistant to these fleeting moments of intimacy.

Instinctively he starts to lean forward, laser focus on her lips as he inches closer to her. When he's close enough to breath into her mouth she snaps from her haze, moving back marginally he almost growls at her he's so frustrated, he's barely able to swallow the sound.

"What are you doing? There's no one to put on a show for."

He peers at her searching her face, her pupils are dilated and he can feel how fast she's breathing each puff landing on his face, her expression near identical to their last night together. But she's stopping him. Even though she clearly desires this too.

He thinks back to her behavior earlier too, she was brazen then comfortable climbing him in front of so many others all in the name of squashing the rumors.

She needs an excuse to do this.

He should feel offended by this epiphany but instead it brings him resolve, she clearly still hasn't fully let him into her heart but she feels something for him she's more than proven that to him. If she needs to draw a line to be with him then so be it for now, he will prove himself to her everyday.

"There are several court maids and servants outside your room, they are pretending they are not listening but they are. Sometimes your imagination can be even more powerful than reality."

She looks towards the door, eying the shadows through the thin covering before turning back to him and nodding in understanding.

"Okay. Let's give them a show."

Without warning she knocks a marble vase to the ground, the loud crash filling the room as it makes contact with the floor.

Then she moans. Loudly. A suggestive gasping moan that goes straight to his chest before zinging lower, tucking at his loins.

She pushes him when he sits silently merely staring at her, "You need to play along too. Come on, get into it."

There's it is again. That damn phrase.

Get into it.

If only she knew how into it he truly was. Grabbing at her ankle and tucking her underneath him, he slams his arms on either side of her head before groaning deeply, "My Queen, please."

Pride explodes in his chest when he sees a deep blush glide across her face. Not unaffected.

"Am I getting into it enough for you now?" He whispers darkly, itching to lower his weight and kiss that delicious look off her face.

Surprisingly she stutters out, "Ye-a-ah. You seem very into it now, nobody can see us though. We don't need to be like this." She motions between their bodies, unable to meet his gaze now. She motions between their bodies, unable to meet his gaze now. She's right but he also knows that he can't miss this chance, he has her right where he wants her and besides squirming distractedly she hasn't shown any desire for him to move away.

"Do you want me to stop?" When she doesn't immediately answer he begins to move backward giving her space but she latches onto his forearm, tight.

"Wait! Maybe we should commit even if they can't see us, it'll help us play our roles better." She reasons and he smiles, razor sharp. She wants this just as badly as he does, he's studied her long enough to read between these lines.

Swiftly he rolls them over so she's on top, pressed together from shoulders to feet her long braid swinging over and brushing against his cheek. Gently wrapping it around his hand he uses it to bring her closer, her breath hitches seductively and he whispers, "Louder. So they can hear you." Without waiting for a reply he tugs at her hair again harder this time and the sound that escapes her lips is orgasmic, a high whining moan that sets his skin on fire. Emboldened and aroused he grabs her neck, speaking into her opened mouth "Do you like that my Queen?" Her eyes are glazed over as she sways as if intoxicated by him.

"Cheoljong, kiss me."

It's too quiet for anyone's ears but his and that makes him even hotter, this wasn't part of the show. This was just for him, just for them.

Always one to seize the moment, he yanks her down to meet his eagerly waiting mouth swallowing the moan that rolls off her tongue. The kiss escalates immediately with both twisting and licking, wet sucking noises soaking the room as they bring apart to gasp for air and crash back together, chaotically and perfectly. When he feels a wondering hand graze his groin he can't resist the urge to thrust up into her touch. Wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her even closer, although there is no space between them.

When he pulls back, her eyes remain close as she licks her lips as if chasing his taste on them. His cock jumps jealously.

"I want you." He admits, wanting to make it clear if his intentions are not already crystalline to her. He wants no room for misunderstandings tonight.

She stares wordlessly before reaching across his body and then he sees the oil in her hand, he hadn't noticed its presence next to them but he eagerly takes it from her.

"Are you comfortable?"

"Don't go soft on me now, bring back the guy who was pulling my hair. Do you want me to call you Daddy too?"

His breath hitches at the word, he doesn't understand why but hearing her makes something dark coil in his belly. She lifts an eyebrow at his heavy silence, "You're so kinky."

He stares confused again, nothing new to him but he stores the word away for further inspection of its meaning. "Is kin-ky bad?" He asks reaching down to lower his pants and cover himself in the thick oil coating each inch of the hard pole.

She doesn't answer right away, avidly watching him stroke himself to fullness before rubbing at the bulbous deep scarlet head, serving to make him almost painfully turned on. "No, kinky is good. I like kinky." She tugs her skirt up and his eyes bulge when instead of seeing the various layers he should see there is only bare skin.

Had he been seduced? It feels as if he has been but he doesn't care enough to question her or pause this for a second. He would happily be her fool.

Gripping at her hips he rubs against her, groaning when her wetness smears across him obscenely. She grinds down onto him meeting him head on, they are definitely on the same page now.

Unable to wait for even another second, he envelopes her in his arms before sliding into her smoothly her natural moisture and the oil easing the way until he is completely encased. She moans long and wailing as he slides to the hilt, he groans loudly joining her as she scratches roughly down his back even through the sturdy material he can feel the burn. Absently he considers gentling his moves, she is pregnant and more fragile after all. But she must read his face and be vehemently against his plan because suddenly she rises up, slipping off his hardness before slamming back down the loud smacking of skin filling the room.

"It's time for the main event. Don’t stop now.” She challenges him, squeezing around his erection.

Pushing his reservations to the side, he gets into it full heartedly thrusting hard before capturing her mouth in a harsh kiss, hissing when he feels her teeth tug roughly at his bottom lip, his lioness has returned. He teasingly roars into her mouth and she laughs around his tongue, breaking free only to latch on his neck sucking hard. He hopes it leaves a mark.

Her laughter causes her to tighten around him and he groans at her vice like grip on his cock, he can feel himself nearing the end. Recalling their first night he suddenly grabs her neck, squeezing lightly and when she whines in a broken gasp he tightens his hand and delights as she melts slowly limp in his hold, he supports her weight easily bucking into her tight heat. When he thrusts up a second time he feels her wetness gush around him before he loses himself, his climax tensing his body as he slowly falls apart.

The entire kingdom will surely be in an uproar tomorrow.

He's looking forward to it. That will teach them to spread rumors about their intimate affairs.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In the hallway, Hong Yeon brings her hands to her hot cheeks feeling overheated from the King and Queen's boisterous gathering. Every court maid is blushing as they look discretely at the door with every moan and groan that escapes. She hopes this will qualm the rumors in the kingdom, she cannot take this for much longer. Court lady Choi had left to retrieve water after their first moans and had yet to return, she surmised if the Queen were not already with child she would have been impregnated again going by the sounds they were making. It was all too obvious to her, despite the Queen's strange behavior at times, they were desperately in love with each other. She'd never seen two people who were more crafted for the other.

Anyone who thought otherwise was a fool.

#queen cheorin #mr. queen #squash the rumor.#do it for your kingdom #no touch princess #smutty smut #they just have so much chemistry I can't resist #my offering

Okay, no.

I survived episode 50.

I survived seventy-seven flashbacks to episode 50.

I survived @tomorrowsdrama‘s epic (yet depressing) posts about episode 50.

I even survived hearing a retelling of episode 50 done by two obviously traumatized children.

There has to be a limit. I’m not playing anymore, drama, don’t you even try!

Oh. You’re giving back my girl Hu Yao. PROCEED THEN.

In the usual TRP fashion we get another heartrending flashback; this time it’s all about Hu Guanglie’s death. It is The Worst. Hu Yao is traumatized.

Xiao Qi is traumatized.

And so am I.

It also appears that I was right about Hu Yao recognizing Zitan’s brand of bullshit. And she is not happy about her protests being dismissed in a frankly insulting way. The word of one girl has no weight in such matters? STFU, Zitan and may your flute be broken forevermore. I hope that Xiao Qi stuffs its broken remains between your teeth.

It certainly looks he might do just that.

And now, seriously: it’s absolutely heartbreaking to see Xiao Qi talking about Hu Guanglie’s death in terms of exchanging lives. He blames himself so, so much! Notice, though, that he sets Hu Guanglie’s value, no, the value of each and every one of his men, at the same amount as his own. And I don’t think that Hu Yao’s assurances that dying for him is the greatest honour for any Ningshuo soldier helped any. If anything, he’s even more determined to make somebody pay.

Hmm. Why do I have a feeling that any other noble in Cheng, if asked to estimate the value of his own life in lives of his retainers, would start with thousands if not tens of thousands?

What food are you craving right now?: Egg pudding.

Princess Weiyoung: Episode 1

notes: Spoilers! A collaborative effort- I watch the first ep and give my predictions and the incomparable @tomorrowsdrama will rate my accuracy. Thanks for the idea, @andoqin

Before I get to the characters I have to say it: What is up with the costumes in this? They are some of the worst I have ever seen in a drama and that's coming from me. I am seeing a lot of shiny polyester in here, a lot of glued-on decoration and a lot of, uh, leeway with the time period by which I assume there was an intended time period and this is not just a made up fantasy world.

Characters in order of their appearance onscreen:

Count von Dad: Dad is awaiting the birth of his baby as he paces in the snowy courtyard. Btw, what about mom? Did she die? Anyway, dad is banished (perhaps to the Carpathian mountains from whence he came), but he comes back to town for Nana's birthday and then all hell breaks loose. predicted fate: will be seen as a hazy fond memory in numerous teary-eyed flashbacks status: ded

Nana: Only here to give Princess Weiyoung a jade token that will probably prove her identity 20 episodes or so down the line. predicted fate: never to be seen again after this episode status: ded (I was right, lol)

Princess Weiyoung (I presume): Ugh. A lovable scamp of a lass, cavorting around with Zhou Zishu's moustache. Insufferable. She must be the female lead. predicted fate: given her near complete inability to escape danger without ample hands to cover her shriek hole (despite the fact that numerous relatives implore her with their dying breaths to just run away), I think it's safe to say she will be her own worst enemy for the entire run of this drama. But- she will suddenly exhibit skills without warning (or discernable education) such as advanced military tactics, or ambassador-level statecraft. All men within range will fall in love with her but she will only have eyes for Male Lead. They will both survive the drama. See Male Lead below for further predictions.

Stepmom? Mom? Auntie?: Who hot-glued a doily to this woman's chest? I think she's the one who wants the jade token- and tbh it matches her outfit. predicted fate: schemin' and dreamin' until episode 45ish when she will kill herself in service to said schemes

Evil or Just Handy Stepsister: Are we setting her up to be a nemesis or just a flat stanley so stepmom has someone to spout exposition to? predicted fate: Covets the Male Lead but marries whomever mom picks out for her. Survives all 54 episodes.

Male Lead: I did not catch his name, sorry. He carries his own silver chopsticks, has excellent martial arts, and clocks the female lead immediately. He makes sure to flirt a little and then leaves. We see him later in the episode when he gets into a shouting match with Prince Braids whom he appears to be related to. predicted fate: love is fated, but first we have to have a bunch of misunderstandings, mistaken identities and someone should definitely fall off a cliff and disappear for a few episodes somewhere along the way. We should also side trip to at least one exotic locale so we can have a romantic montage. Also we should must have at least one "I thought you were dead" moment. Both the ML and FL have good martial arts so maybe we'll be spared the "falling off a wall and into your arms" cliché. Of course Princess Weiyoung and ML will end up together. But will we get a kiss? I say yes. A wedding? I say also yes. A kid? I say no.

JIN HAN!!!: OH HELL YES! I had no idea he was in this!!! I am a 1000% on board for this hammy ott evil general thing he has going on. He's been onscreen for all of ten seconds and he's already flicked his cape, jumped on his horse, soliloquized to his sword and inspired his army of at least 30 guys to yell "KILL!" predicted fate: out in a blaze of glory, episode 52

Lord Li: Generically evil, what a snooze predicted fate: We're stuck with this guy, I can feel it. Very unappealing. I think he’s Stepmom’s son; strong Oedipus complex vibes. Probably falls in love with Princess Weiyoung. Dead in the last episode

Prince Braids: Oh my goodness. oh, wow. just.... huh. This guy's hair makes me so uncomfortable. It looks uncomfortable for him too. predicted fate: we need him for constant conflict with Male Lead. Also falls in love with Princess Weiyoung. Killed by Male Lead in episode 45

Not-Seen-But-Implied Emperor: Probably will not listen to honest officials and gets himself deposed. New emperor will become the new enemy. predicted fate: old emperor killed in episode 20; new emperor killed in second to last episode after being stabbed, but still has enough life in him for three minute speech wherein he recognizes that Princess Weiyoung is the architect of his downfall.

Well, how’d I do?

Bonus Round: Who Wore It Better?

(Zhou Zishu. Zhou Zishu wore it better)

Tag a mutual you want to know better:

I was tagged by @its-chelisey-stuff and @junkobato - thank you for thinking of me while answering this tag. It was great reading your thoughts and knowing more about you. Hope mine won't be a boring read! ^_^v

Here it goes...

1. why did you choose your url?

To be honest this wasn't my original URL. The first one was biniBningPunkista which is hard to spell and find. I changed it around 2 years ago when my Wordpress blog expired and I felt it was useless to renew since I don't have the time to write anything committedly.

2. any sideblogs?

Nah... I'm too lazy to have too many accounts.

3. how long have you been on tumblr?

I'm not really sure if it was 2007 or 2008. Tumblr was still starting back then.

4. do you have a queue tag?

No. But now that I think about it, maybe I should start one since I queue almost all of my posts.

5. why did you start your blog in the first place?

A friend actually recommended Tumblr to me and I was able to cross-post stuff from my other accounts which made posting relatively easy. Until I found my passion for a certain fandom, like asian dramas. At first it was all about my thoughts (as this was linked to Wordpress), photography, books and movies.

6. why did you choose your icon/pfp?

It's a photo of Seo Hyun Jin from Another Miss Oh. I loved that drama so much and SHJ has such a beautiful facial profile. Unfortunately, it's an underrated show... so my icon basically reminds me that there are a lot Drama Gems in Dramaland and it's up to me to find them and not limit myself to only hyped dramas.

7. why did you choose your header?

PARK BO GUM IS MY BIAS. I myself wonder when will I ever replace him as a header. lol.

8. what’s your post with the most notes?

Currently, it's the gifset I made for Doom at Your Service opening credits.

9. how many mutuals do you have?

I don't know. How can I find about this? Can anyone help me out? I'm very much interested. ^_^v

10. how many followers do you have?

836... for the years I've been in here, it's still a low count but considering the time I've been active... this is a LOT. So thank you to all my followers and for clicking that heart sign, reblogging my content and talking to me. It really means so much. *virtual hugs to you guys!*

11. how many people do you follow?

I just checked and it's around 110.

12. have you ever made a shitpost?

I did. I just don't remember what kind of Shit Post it was. heh.

13. how often do you use tumblr each day?

Probably around 2-3 hours max. I usually queue stuff, so that works like magic to me.

14. did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?

Not that I remember.

15. how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts?

Ever since last year, I started ignoring this "YOU NEED TO REBLOG THIS" idea. At first, I felt obligated to repost stuff to show my support to the content maker, but these days, I believe that liking their post is already a big sign of support and I think the best support I could give these content makers are to send them messages that I appreciate them for making such contents or BUY their hard work if they're an artist. These days, reblogging is actually secondary for me.

16. do you like tag games?

YEEEEEES!!! I think it's fun. ^_^

17. do you like ask games?

Another YES!!! Ask me anything. I love answering asks and posting them.

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

I think there are a lot of them in my list, but I'm still not sure. lol!

19. do you have a crush on a mutual?

What? No. That thought is kind of weird. Someone I look up to would probably fit me better. I have several mutuals in mind, but I'm too shy to mention/tag them here. ~_~

20. tags?

I'm tagging you guys because I'd like to know more about you too! No pressure on answering though. ^_^v
