The scene where Wen Qing pretends to pick a fight with Jiang Cheng at the tavern so she can covertly warn him that the others are in danger has me like 🥺, because Wen Qing was probably expecting Jiang Cheng to get angry and physically aggressive—after all, the whole point is to get close to him without appearing friendly or seeking him out. Instead, he just goes from confused to hurt, and rather than get into her physical space as she escalates, he ducks his head and TRIES TO LEAVE. She has to jump up and physically restrain him to get the needed proximity. She ultimately succeeds in warning him, he understands immediately what she was doing, and all is well, but still… man. When Qing went in figuring it’d be easy to get Jiang Cheng riled up and instead he sits there distraught that his crush is being mean to him.

When one is alone and lonely, the body  gladly lingers in the wind or the rain,   or splashes into the cold river, or pushes through the ice-crusted snow.  

Anything that touches.

I love "i would kill for you" ship dynamics but what about "i would stop killing" ship dynamic??

I would lay down my sword for you. I would change my nature and go against everything i've known. I would resist the easy way out of solving my problems. I would give up the adrenaline of battle to stay by your side and make tea instead. I'm not sure I know who I am without a weapon in my hand because I've had to fight for so long but for you I'm willing to try and figure this out.

It must be hard. To put down your weapon that's protected you for so long. It's allowed you to stay alive it's kept you from getting hurt--physically and mentally. Because you've never had to worry about a real relationship if you think you'll be dead at the next battle. And you feel naked without it and it feels like you're ripping off an extension of yourself. Are you even whole without it? Are you worthy of being loved if you can't prove it by risking your life? And yet they've found someone who's asking them for something much harder than dying in battle on their behalf. They've found someone who wants them to live. And that's much more terrifying.

my first impression of The Untamed’s depiction of Xue Yang was that he was way hotter than I was expecting him to be. my second impression was that he desperately wanted to be topped

I was listening to Hozier's "work song" the other day, and it made me want Zixuan as a discworld-style zombie - one who dies, but just... gets up and keeps going afterwards. he's got a wife and a child that need him! he's gotta get home to them! that's more important than something stupid like dying!

While Jiang Cheng managing to rebuild his clan is amazing, how exactly was he able to recruit enough people? With everyone but his siblings dead (and WWX presumed dead for a while), wouldn't it just have been easy for any other clan to take their place?

That’s probably part of what we have to give Jiang Cheng a ton of credit for! It’s annoying/funny to me that so many fanworks mischaracterize him as misanthropic, awkward, and grumpy even as a teenager/young man, when he clearly has the charisma to rally many, many people to his side.

My understanding is that part of what makes the four/five great sects great is not only their size and power, but also their land and wealth. Now, Jiang Cheng has obviously lost control of these, too, but at least there’s a narrative he can build of “once we win the war, we’ll get it all back and you’ll be a member of the largest/richest/best sect in Yunmeng.” Any smaller sect participating in the Sunshot Campaign would have trouble competing with that argument, and the Wen does not seem to be distributing lands or power to subordinate sects, so there isn’t a path to advancement there, either.
