Throughout all the series you have watched what are some of your favorite faces characters have made?

Too too too hard to answer

But here are some less-than-dignified screencaps from my LITA and Cutie Pie watch through

I tried, I really did, but I just apparently don't have silly screencaps of Prapai's face...

"wen ning is wei wuxian's obedient sidekick" boring. what if he's lan wangji's sidekick now.

wen ning has always shown a lot of respect towards lan wangji; but after the golden core reveal, lan wangji's own attitude towards him subtly flips from indifference/mild jealousy to "Actually Wen Qionglin Is Alright And I Have Always Said That" and it's so funny. he straight up lies to wei wuxian to cover wen ning's ass for the time being, and even defends him after wei wuxian is pissed later ("wei ying, he was very sorry 🥺" DUDE).

when wen ning doesn't tell wei wuxian about a-yuan "because hanguang-jun didn't say to", wei wuxian almost pops a vein. ditched by his ghost general, for his husband. his reputation is in shambles. what would people say.

lan sizhui uses yunmeng jiang sword moves in the extras? lwj: "inappropriate. i will punish him later". sizhui uses qishan wen techniques 5 seconds later? lwj: *cricket noises*. wen ning can influence the young lan generation as much as he wants actually - they can go copy some lines later or whatever. who cares

lan wangji had stolen many things from wei wuxian over the years, but this time he's stealing wei wuxian's man, because lan wangji never had a friend before and now they're two hater4hater neurodivergent introverts with a common worldview and a kid to raise. imagine

the thing that captured my fascination about Lee Dongsik is that he is loved. in the past, in the present, in the time between 20 years ago and the present - he is loved by so many people. but none of that saves him or protects him from pain. Jeongje, Chief Nam, Jihwa, Jaeyi, Jihoon, literally all of them loved him and none of them could protect him from grief but still the love mattered. it mattered enough to remind him to save himself. and through that, he saved Juwon too.

villain who’s not a machivellian schemer but wheezes “all according to plan” whenever he gets defeated so everyone thinks he is and treats him with deference accordingly

hm. I really can't give ball boy tactics more than a 6.5, even though there were definitely aspects of it that I really liked. maybe I'm just not used to the short run time for kdramas but a lot of things felt really rushed an very few of the character beats felt earned. I also can't believe they introduced an abuse storyline in the penultimate episode and then never mentioned it again, or explained what was going on with jiwons family.

on the upside, I did really like the characters (special shout out to my boy seungjin) and there were some very sweet moments. I do wish we'd gotten more of the side couple,but what we did get was great.

overall - not bad, but far from great

I have. many thoughts

you're so lucky he'd drink because this is the least convincing lie ever told
