I love lqr but he's hardly blameless in how he raised his nephews. its more explicit how strict he was in the novel and how difficult that was for lwj and lxc, but in the drama making lwj kneel with the bamboo for like...two days? with his arms out like that just for visiting wwx is so harsh. like presumably most of the lans, and honestly most of the sects, he's punitive minded and he sees it as the only way to protect people he sees as under his guardianship and correct behavior he sees as unacceptable. but he just causes suffering and in the end he didn't keep lwj away from wwx anyway

#in modern AUs he seems tobdislike wwx because hes annoying or breaks rules or such #and thats true on a personal level maybe #but in canon lqr didnt want lwj to seek association w wwx because he saw wwx as wrong and evil #and he saw it as wanting to keep lwj from destroying himself #his motivations matter. hes not some maniacally evil and irrational old homophobe #though in the novel putting on the wall 'do not associate w wwx' was insanely stupid and awful #like nobody from the lans are allowed to do that? even the kids will be punished?#idr the exact scenario. maybe it was a joke?#anyway drama lqr is my guy. I love him despite his terrible ways #and after the truth comes to light I can see dra verse lqr really come to accept and welcome wwx #not something I could see for the novel relationship. nc in the novel wwx really was responsible for all the shit #but I can see wwx proving himself to lqr. they can have a little friendship. as a treat #also it just sucks to think that wwx is unwelcome by authority figures in whats supposed to be his final and most permsnent home #didnt we already do this? its why the traveling postcanon and leaving gusu at the end of the show rly appeals to me #man I just gave like five conflicting opinions on the tags alone. well whatever. I contsin multitudes and all that #cql txp
