inspired by this post by @drwcn... all the Jin bastards canonically see Stab as their way of solving a problem when the situation gets dire, which I think in a universe where the sibs get a chance to get to know each other, might give poor JZX a bit of a complex

I've been thinking for a few days about how Jiang Cheng and Jin Guangyao both recognize the limits of their own power. And like. A lot of people don't like that. They expect Heroes(tm) to push past their limits and do the impossible, like Wei Wuxian. But they can't do that.

Jin Zixuan: Brother, i didn't drank THAT much last night
Jin Guangyao: You flirted with lady Jiang
Jin Zixuan: So what? She's my fiancee! We'll be married in one month!
Jin Guangyao: You asked her if she was betrothed to someone.
Jin Zixuan: …
Jin Guangyao: and you cried (on my shoulder) when she said that she was getting married next month.

was thinking about how jgy is such a good portrayal female envy and female rage and he fulfills so many common female tropes
he's looked down upon despite being just as good as others of the same age solely due to things he couldnt control like his parents (female envy)
hes assigned to positions of subservience by default because that all his inherent worth due to his mothers status, hes forced to claw his way up the ranks, he has to rely on manipulation, strategy and betrayal, he has to don a fake smile and hold his tongue to serve others
he dedicates his life purpose to his mother and because of that attaches his self-worth to his capability to fulfill his mothers hopes (to be accepted by his father). he has so much of his self worth tied to gaining acceptance to this male figure in his life that he throws away morals, relationships and lives all for his father
in the end hes shamed and thrown away after serving his purpose, which is also a common female trope, and no matter how much he tried, schemed and lied, he doesn't achieve his goals in the end
i think he's such a twisted and tragic character and mxtx is a genius for creating people with such complexity and depth
