white streak in my hair but no stress now (i'm so sorry)

[nacrelysis]

no because it's kaeya's power, kaeya's vision, the blessing given to the child cursed with the weight of his nation, on the night that the closest person in his life used his fire to hurt him, that protects diluc now.

because it's that same power given to protect kaeya from diluc's fire that he uses to protect him now. i hate my life im going to go cry now bye

Translating the last line of Ne Zha 2 (2025)

When Ao Bing asks Ne Zha how he knew he'd come back, Ne Zha says something that I think might be the perfect ending line.

因为我们都太年轻，不知天高地厚

Yin wei wo men dou tai nian qing, bu zhi tian gao di hou

I think the theatre I watched translated this as "Because we're both too young. Too young to fear."

Honestly, this translation is pretty good! It's touching and impactful.

Bu zhi tian gao di hou, 不知天高地厚, is a saying that is used to refer to someone that is arrogant or foolish and doesn't understand the power or cruelty of the world.

It means: To know not how high the heavens stretch, nor how deep the earth goes.

Usually it is used to admonish someone, usually an elder scolding someone younger that they're overly confident or idealistic, and don't know anything about the realities of what's out there.

Ne Zha and Ao Bing have both technically lived thousands of years. They were originally the Chaos Pearl, so they've witnessed a lot. They do, in fact, know how unfair the world is, and have seen the heavens and the earth.

However, since their bodies and minds are still young, it's especially impactful for Ne Zha to say this to refer to himself and Ao Bing. Essentially, he is saying that despite them both understanding the cruelty and unfairness of the world, they still choose to be young and foolish.

It's not that they're arrogant and overconfident. It's that they understand they have little chance, but they must fight anyway. They are choosing to be young and wild, choosing their three year old naïveté over their thousands of years as the Chaos Pearl.

IDK, it really got to me.

"you, who betrayed me so cruelly...i finally hold you in my arms.

"this is my revenge."

i didn't think wiege could wreck me any more but here we are. hyuna loving luka despite his hand in her brother's death, and hating herself for the fact that she loves him still in spite of his betrayal. hyuna sacrificing herself in front of luka both because she loves him in spite of all he's done, and because of what he's done.

because he's luka, "someone who only knows suffering and can only inflict the same".

because he's luka, "my one and only weakness".

hyuna, who hates her own humanity because of how she loves despite it all. luka, who has only ever felt the closest to human in her presence. hyuna is his god, his universe, the ruler of his heart.

he thinks her a god, and his worship makes him human.

but hyuna is human, and in dying, her mortality condemns him.

in the words of aechmea, "the most human emotion, is vengeance."

[nacrelysis]

chat wiege hurt me so bad im thinking about working on this antarcphos draft

[nacrelysis]

YES.

is there anyone else here who knows 2ha who has watched Wiege bc that one Hyuna's line is really giving me flashbacks here

[nacrelysis]

TO BE HUMAN IS TO LOVE.

So Luka isn't fully human. Wiege makes that clear in one scene with all the clones dead with a mix of human blood and green blood from their bodies.

But to be human is to love.

"live with love."

[nacrelysis]

"you were my only weakness." and oh, luka really was. he truly was,

because it's only love that breaks past the barrier of logic and overwhelms all sense of strategy. it's only love, it's always love, that greatest curse and that most basest instinct-

because in that split second, hyuna didn't think. she just did what she always has. she loved luka, and she loves luka, and her final act was an act of love for luka, still, always, forever-

she loved without regret. and so she sacrificed herself for luka without regret. it's so easy to lend your lungs to your love if they're the only reason for you to breathe.

it's that sort of feeling. it looks at you from the corner of the corridor, always unblinking, always there. you just can't help yourself. it's always there. it's like holding your breath underwater, your lungs straining, your chest burning,

and then she breathes her last breath, like a kiss across your lips cursing you to your humanity, that you might feel alive again - just once - and you gasp open your mouth for that first inhale in a long, long time. and you know,

it was always meant to end this way.

[nacrelysis]

the way he looks at her.

[nacrelysis]

yeah so. bringing this back about luka.

till and mizi, ivan and till, mizi and sua, mizi and hyuna, hyuna and luka-

everyone in alien stage is reaching for happiness in some form. unattainable, intangible, they reach out for it in the form of a person like it's their god, their universe -

only to be shot for being human.

@tubercloset from our conversation post-round 7, this was truly our alien stage ;-;
