i PERSONALLY would like to FALL IN LOVE please!!!!!! and have the SAME PERSON fall in love with me BACK!!!!!!! could i get some MUTUAL AFFECTION out here!!!!!!!!!
loner teen Lan Zhan stealing the perfume bag from his passed out crush to use as his money pouch for years + acclaimed young warrior Hanguang-jun snagging his crush’s peony and turning it into a bookmark and taking such good care of it that it still has a pleasant scent 13 years later = me wanting to grab him by his exquisitely toned and pale and slender shoulders and shake him so vigorously that his hopeless romantic brain turns into scrambled eggs
but i guess i can’t do that because he already walked himself down to Gusu to be lashed 33 times for each clan elder he injured to defend his evil overlord necromancer unrequited lover and it was all in vain anyway
