Priest is a marvel (re: names)

Zhou Xu / Zhou Zishu*

ZZS names himself Xu (絮), from the Yuan dynasty song 《蟾宫曲·春情》 – “身似浮云，心如飞絮”. It translates (literally) to – body like the floating clouds, heart like willow seeds in the wind. but the meaning lies deeper. 

The first part of this line, “body like the floating clouds”, kind of sounds like he’s super good at qinggong, but really means a person’s body is frail and sways while walking (unstable), just like the floating clouds. The second part refers to a person’s heart being all over the place, like willow seeds in the wind (fairly direct meaning).

The entire song is about this young lovesick wife who’s missing her husband and cannot pull herself out of this weak and delicate state.

Their relationship may look one-sided like WKX is strutting around like a peacock trying to hit on A-Xu, but it isn’t. A-Xu’s the kind that loves Lao Wen quietly, but no less fiercely. ❤️❤️

A weak and frail body, clearly accurate description of his nailed x7 body

A young wife missing her husband? All I can say is I missed this hint on gong/shou because I first read TYK in its English translation. 

Cannot pull himself out of the situation? Yesss, that’s why there’s mutual salvation. *heart eyes* (I mean, technically, Wu Xi saves A-Xu) 

A part of the song that I didn’t translate talks about the husband going far away, where the wife can’t follow, and she prays for his safety at home. Tell me, how is this any different from when A-Xu told Lao Wen that he and Chengling would wait for him at the Four Seasons Manor? ❤️❤️❤️

Wen Kexing

晨起动征铎，客行悲故乡**。(pinyin: chen qi dong zheng duo, ke xing bei gu xiang)

故乡/hometown and 顾湘/character are homophones – both are gu xiang. I’ll use A-Xiang as the character’s name in this post to minimize confusion. 

This poem is the actual origin of Wen Kexing’s (and Gu Xiang’s) name. Wen** comes from the poet’s name, and Kexing comes from the first line in the poem. The line above translates roughly to – waking up early in the morning and hear the bells ring, and the travellers long to see their hometown (gu xiang). 

To Wen Kexing, the Ghost Valley both is and isn’t his hometown because the Ghost Valley isn’t home. It’s merely a place that let him live on to carry out his revenge; it’s his training ground, his proving ground, nothing more than a stepping stone. 

When A-Xiang comes into his life, she becomes his last tether to humanity and, in a way, the last link to his hometown. And right up to the start of the novel, she’s the one who brings WKX’s “real hometown”, Zhou Zishu, to him. 

And if we take a different interpretation of the line with their names, “客行悲顾湘”, WKX grieves for GX. How is this not so incredibly beautiful and heartbreaking??  💔

nah okay, one of the best top-tier kinnporsche scenes is undoubtedly when Chay got his little gay baby heartbroken and instead of playing tear drops on his guitar like the other bl uni boys he went full on shojo heroine and dyed his hair fucking blueberry blue, snagged an off the rack sleeveless t-shirt, went out with his apparent friend group to hit up a dank busted club, choked down two glasses of lower shelf fireball and then as he's living his best-worst dancing on my own by robyn life and some rando is like hey babygirl lemme whisper in yo ear and tries to give him some off-brand ecstasy that looked more like those dissolvable tablets your parents fed you when you were 11 and tasted like ass paper when

BAM IN COMES KIM WITH THE STEEL CHAIR!! giving off "only I can call chay babygirl and my rights were revoked so your ass DEF can't call him that" energy and smacking away the discount walmart drugs pulling chay away by his goodwill tank top and Rando is like "hey I was shooting my shot!" and kim knocks that man on his ASS with the most emotion he's had the whole show bug eyed and clenched jaw like he was gonna rip old dudes throat out with his teeth pointing his finger at him like "DARE said no drugs!" while Chay's other friends in the back are like "BEYONCE???" (new york voice) b/c kim montana just kidnapped chay and almost dog walked their other friend in the middle of the club

maybe the purpose of life is to fill it with as many positive things as you can. regardless of how bad life gets, don’t let it steal your personality, your hobbies, your style. after coming home from a bad day at work maybe you need to sit down and read a nice book. after studying non-stop for so long, maybe you should finish that crochet project you’ve been putting off because you’re so busy. maybe we should prioritize the things we love, the things that make us happy, and not just the things we’re forced to do to survive. in this society, a little peace from the outside world is important. don’t give up on the things that make you happy. don’t forget about yourself.

The KinnPorsche Leading Gentlemen as Fragrances

Kinn - Juliette has a gun A note from the perfume creator: " A gourmand accord of Vanilla and Neroli. An olfactive sweetness that regales the senses and provokes immediate pleasure." Like Kinn, if you find yourself on his good side. Scent notes: Neroli, Raspberry, Caramel OP verdict: Kinn is a whole damn meal and I am always down to chomp.

Porsche - This is him! Vibes of Freedom Like Porsche, the perfume invokes a good mood, carefree days and a taste of freedom. Right now Porsche's dream of running a bar by the beach might be out of reach, but there's a season 2 and Porsche's happiness had better be the endgame! Scent notes: Tangerine, Cardamom, Cypress OP verdict: I ship Porsche with freedom and I wanna see them together.

Kim - Eros Flame Just like Kim, the Eros Flame captures your heart and promises a burning, lasting passion. Whether it's prudent to get too close to the flame and get burnt is all up to you. Scent notes: Patchouli, Rosemary, black pepper OP verdict: There's no safer place to be than in Kim's favour. Get me a man who will slay a bar full of mfs for me even if he can't take credit for it. He might singe your whiskers if you get too close, but approach slowly and sweetly, and he'll be doing tricks for treats in no-time.

Chay - Babe Power

From the description of Babe Power by Missguided: "a perfume that lends confidence and charisma to help you achieve your goals". This fragrance suits Chay, who is living the complete Y/N experience... and who has zero qualms about blocking his flame when Kim serves some trifling bullshit. Porschay really said "bitch I think the fuck not". Scent notes: Pineapple, Peony, Cotton Candy OP verdict: Chay is the one to watch. We say Kim is the stone cold calculated one, but Chay can make the lion say meow SO EASILY. He really has the Babe Power. :)

Pete - Devil's Food There is no other match for the series' most edible character. Ask Vegas. Scent notes: vanilla, spices, chocolate OP verdict: it was either this or Pleasures Intense by Estee Lauder, but that fragrance got discontinued. I would commit atrocities for Pete.

Vegas - The Impudent Cousin Matthew It's THE perfume for the edgy man who shows up to stir shit. It's that one cousin who always gets you into trouble at family reunions, and you really think he's an asshole, but gatherings really aren't fun or worth going to if he's not there. Scent notes: mandarin orange, petitgrain, patchouli. OP verdict: This is a really inaccessibly expensive perfume that's hard to get to - just like Vegas' loving, human core. Goes to show how powerful Pete is, who cracked Vegas like a nut and nibbled on the soft kernel until there was zero mafia left in Vegas.

About Kim's polaroid collection

It was easy for me to miss the first time around, but...

Chay was hiding those polaroid pics for Kim to find at random moments.

Each picture was left as a gift.

This particular one was hiding in the guitar strings.

The rest of them in the box? Each one was almost certainly collected from a different hiding place. Each one with a hand-written message.

Each picture is not just picture but a memory of happiness added to Kim's life when he least expected it.

Now excuse me while I yeet myself out a window.
