Been thinking about Zuo Linchuan ever since I finished reading the 4th Bday card by sheer mtl, but I think if I have to sum up his character into something simple, it would be Artem's wishing tag and its interpretation from Entwined Fate SSR.

I'm not going really to delve into the plot of the card because personally it's better to experience yourself and I want to reread when it eventually comes to global (I will say though, people who loves Day and Night SSR and Belle Nuit d'Amour will definitely enjoy it.)

Anyway, while it's indeed only half of the poem, the interpretation of the tags itself is the one that made me pause.

Keeping things to himself and never complaining to anyone, burdened with responsibilities that caused relationships with loved ones suffers.

they're really cut from the same cloths because both artem and his father would rather face the danger alone than let what is important to them get hurt, this led them to not say anything about it until things have passed and dust settled, mixed feelings and words that went unsaid.

But now, Artem has Rosa who wouldn't let him take the burden alone, who would be there for him, so he wouldn't faced into danger on his own.

Ultimately, I think all three of Artem's parents'figures have this tendency to handle things on their own because of their belief and they have to sacrifice things in the process in order to stay on their belief and protect what is important to them.

(Side Notes though, they are imperfect parents but Artem parents are loving in their own way.)

I think Artem, with Rosa on his side, might be able to break the cycle of taking sacrifice and danger alone, unlike them.
