Best Of 2021: BL Challenge

Remember that time when Lao Wen pretended there was no wine in the bottle, so he ordered Gu Xiang to go find him more wine but later one we find out the bottle in question indeed had wine and Lao Wen was just making an excuse so he could spend time alone with his A-Xu?

Well, yeah... my favorite part of it is that do you know who knew the bottle wasn’t empty too? You’re right, the one and only A-Xu. He knew damn well how much he drunk from that bottle and there was still wine on it, however he remained silence, even when Gu Xiang turned out to him to give a bad look for taking all the wine because HE WANTED TO BE ALONE WITH HIS BABY TOO.

And remember that time when Lao Wen asked A-Xu to go to look for medicines to cure Cao Weining and Cao offered to go with them but Gu Xiang stopped him and Chengling told him “it’s ok. You will learn to be with them” or something like that. That got me screaming because Chengling’s words and Gu Xiang’s actions just tell me that tWenZhou look for excuses to be alone ALL THE TIME. And they do it so much that even my innocence boy Chengling has noticed that and learned to respect that.

I mean, these two go around thinking they’re fooling everyone with their lame excuses to be alone but they’re not fooling anyone. Omg i can’t!! And the best part is they don’t even need any excuse, also aren’t you two together DAY AND NIGHT? Why do you need MORE TIME ALONE? TF.

Definitely there was not better ending for them than being trapped in that mountain lol. Bye

Can we talk about what a selfless character Will is? Always putting everyone else's need above his own. Not only was this trait shown in the van scene with Mike...but even in his actual 'coming out' moment with Jonathan. This moment was supposed to be all about Will. Jonathan saying (without saying) that even if Will is gay, it doesn't matter to him. He'll always love him, no matter what. And Will's response?

Ugh, so sweet. Even in the moment that was supposed to be about Will getting comforted, he still made sure Jonathan knew it went both ways.

Which, reminded me. This isn't the first time this happened. Back in S1, after Will got rescued, he ended up in the hospital. He had just been trapped in another dimension for a week, on the brink of death. And the first thing he says to Jonathan when he wakes up?

This world doesn't deserve Will Byers! My child, you are allowed to be selfish sometimes. Please...every once in a while, just think about yourself.

Wangji and Wuxian

Ye Baiyi (ep. 34)

You ever just stop and think about how much the cloud recesses trio changed from their youthful days. They went from the three boys who constantly broke rules for fun to eventually grow up and become the yiling patriarch, the sandu shengshou, the head-shaker. Each more terrifying then the other.

The accomplishments the three of them made are extraordinary and the villainous acts they have done are horrifying. Wei Wuxian who created a whole new brand of cultivation by himself but also murdered thousands of people. Jiang Cheng who built his sect from the ashes it became after the loss of entire family but also tortured and killed many demonic cultivators. Nie Huaisang who avenged his brother, defeating a person who destroyed the lives of many people but also manipulated & deceived the whole world and it is implied that he took advantage of a lot of people to fulfil his goal.

The saddest thing is they all become who they are now from the loss of loved ones. Especially the loss of a sibling which had a HUGE lasting impact on each of them. Jiang Yanli’s death made Wei Wuxian lose his very sanity. Wei Wuxian’s death along with Jiang Yanli’s left Jiang Cheng alone in grief with nothing but anger to cover it up. Nie Mingjue’s death left Huaisang with using his Intelligence in very callous ways for the sake of avenging him.

The unjustified deaths of their siblings changed the very core who they used to be. Wei Wuxian who was bright and hopeful lost his very will to live. Jiang Cheng who once sought for a life next to his siblings now rules an entire sect alone in loneliness. Nie Huaisang who preferred to live in peacefullness gave up that very peace he cherished for revenge.

And to think that they once used to be just some carefree teenage boys who sneaked in alcohol into cloud recesses to get drunk, sneaked in porn to read and tease their classmates on, cheated on tests and ending up getting caught, gossiped and talked about the type of romantic partners they wanted, went hunting for a chicken just because why not. They were just happy and carefree boys who ended up losing too much, too young.

Do you think ZhuZhi-Lang is a prototype Wen Ning? What was the narrative point of him dying in the end?

Hello Anon!

I’d definitely say that Zhuzhi-Lang and Wen Ning are two socially awkward “monster” boys cut from the same cloth. Zhuzhi-Lang’s character does seem to provide the inspiration for Wen Ning as his MDZS counterpart, with their arcs even centering around similar hardships yet yielding contrasting endings.

At just a glance, in Zhuzhi-Lang and Wen Ning, we see two young men who despite being belonging to the most powerful clans are still outcasts derided by society: Zhuzhi-Lang for his hideous snake-man appearance and Wen Ning for being a timid stutterer, a “Wen-dog” and of course, the much-feared Ghost General. Adding to Zhuzhi-Lang and Wen Ning’s negative public images is the fact that they are the notorious right-hand men (and wingmen!) of someone regarded as society’s villain. And of course, we know that those so-called villains, Tianlang-Jun and Wei Wuxian, are far more complex than what society passes on as “facts”. Much like their right-hand men, both Wei Wuxian and Tianlang-Jun are misunderstood figures who, despite not being entirely innocent, have been shown to actually be victims of society first.

On this point, what’s observed through all these characters is the ever-recurring MXTX theme that the world, and people in particular, aren’t so black-and-white. What’s passed on as “truth” often isn’t accurate nor complete, and humanity exists amongst outcasts who are dehumanized. Sometimes, perhaps unsurprisingly, the ones who are able to recognize that fact most clearly are the very people considered “evil” by society. (Outcasts unite!)

Through the important relationships Zhuzhi-Lang and Wen Ning have with Tianlang-Jung and Wei Wuxian respectively, we see the sides of them that tend to be ignored by society, arguably precisely because of how human those qualities are. 

Namely, they are notably two people struggling with their sense of self-worth after a lifetime of being looked down upon…Given that, it is understandable how they both can’t help but become (perhaps excessively) attached towards those who treat them kindly. For Zhuzhi-Lang, being nonchalantly taken in & given a human form/name by Tianlang-Jun and inadvertently saved by Shen Qianqiu was more than enough to earn them both a lifetime of selfless loyalty from him. For Wen Ning, the simple act of Wei Wuxian praising and standing up for him at one time left such an impact that it led him to risk his own safety to help Wei Wuxian during the Lotus Pier massacre and subsequently become one of his most devoted allies/followers.

As quoted by Zhuzhi-Lang, the phrase “a drop of kindness is repaid as a gushing spring” appears to be the philosophy that these two are dedicated to following.
