OFMD Critique: Bad Faith, Fandom, and Respect
All right. You know what? Screw it. I saw one post I just cannot ignore anymore that encapsulated all of my problems with the fandom right now. Personal rant incoming.
I understand that there's a nuance to the discussion of season 2 of Our Flag Means Death, and that there are people going a little too far with both their critiques and their support of the show. But oh my God, I'm tired of being straw-manned and made fun of for legitimate critiques of the show.
I just used the block button on someone in this fandom for the first time. Some of you might think I'm overreacting for this, but I saw a post that I could not on any level stand. This person, who I will not name names of, because I'd rather just block them and never deal with their level of bad faith again, took their one legitimate criticism of those of us who critique the show, the back and forth on whether or not Izzy's death was homophobic or not, and used it as the first in a literal list of straw man critiques that no one I've read in the OFMD Critical tag has made (and I check it like once a day bc I like reading meta, sorry), proceeding to absolutely make fun of the legitimate critiques that people have of the show, parodying them in the worst possible ways. They took our legitimate critiques about everything from the sexist handling Zheng Yi Sao's character, the absolute ableism of the finale, the questionable optics of the handling of trauma, etc. and stretched them into things that they very much were not (two examples were that we were crying ableism bc of something to do with seagulls and that we thought the problem in the Stede&Zheng dynamic was the "emotional labor" involved).
Now I'm pretty sure this post was a joke. I *think* it was a joke. But how in the world am I supposed to feel comfortable in the main section of a fandom like this when the comments and replies to this post were full of people agreeing sincerely that this is what the critical section of the fandom is like? How am I supposed to feel when I just see people making fun of me for my analysis of the show? I love this show. I adore season 1 and I'm clearly still making fan related content (moodboards) for season 2 along with my critiques.
Sure, I vibe way more with fanfiction than the actual canon at this point, but I still genuinely engage with the show. And to have the critiques that I made in good faith, regarding issues that I sincerely care about such as ableism, sexism, homophobia, and the handling of trauma, made fun of and taken out of context and straw-manned to their extreme, makes me feel so absolutely unwelcome in this fandom.
Other than keeping up with the couple of fan series that I'm currently still reading, I don't know if I can stay in this fandom any longer. I can't say that I'm excited for the new season if this is the kind of response that any good faith critique of the show is going to get. I can't say that I feel safe or comfortable when there are this many people ready to dog pile on me for a critique I made with ACTUAL TEXTUAL EVIDENCE to back it up.
I would like to thank all the people who have been making excellent critiques of the show. Their meta-analysis is what got me into making my own critiques, which I was nervous about making in any other fandom. I don't think I've in any way tagged them all, but just a few I can remember off the top of my head. Go read their critiques/meta- it's really good!
@sky-fire-forever @carrymelikeimcute @blue-b-bro @bougiebutchbinch @treesofgreen @sixstepsaway @alex51324
And from the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who has engaged with my mood boards or my critiques or anything else that I've made, as well as the amazing writers and artists in this fandom (such as @ruecrown, @aletterinthenameofsanity, @fool-for-luv, and @possumsmushroom). You guys have kept me going with my love for the show and engaging with it for a while now. Despite the stuff that is making me take a step back now, I really did love this while it lasted! I'm still planning on making a few more mood boards, but other than that, I'm going to take a step back from engaging.
Hope this post can spread enough support/joy your way to counteract the ache I'm currently feeling!
Sincerely,
Ashley (aka @khruschevshoe)

Everyone and their hot mom talking up Word of Honor got me to take a break from my Yanxi Palace rewatch to check it out. I got 20 episodes into it and... initial impressions?
* can't claim that it's objectively good in, like, an ~artistic sense
* though the colors!! great outfits! and some fun fight scenes!
* an honest struggle to keep track of all the sects, who is who, and why this group is on their particular bullsh*t at any given time
* why are these guys shouting at these other dudes so much right now? what do they want? whose team are they on? why is it a different team than they were backing 20 min ago? do i actually need to care what is happening in this scene at ALL, in the big picture of the plot???
* i super loved all the scheming in Yanxi Palace and the politics in Nirvana in Fire, Golden Stage but all the sects business in WoH makes me #tired
* the main characters will make melodramatic Grand Statements of despair, disgust or loyalty and then seem to go back to neutral chillin a scene later, very Stargate Atlantis lmao
* subjectively, WoH is compulsively watchable! I powered thru it so fast it's wild
* the central canon pairing is appealing and easy to ship, even with all the emotional whiplash. Obvious sexual tension and romantic tension
* secondary pairing of demonic gremlin maid and sweet dumbo sect boi is EXCELLENT, I really enjoy their every scene together
* so.. much...melodrama...
* i was bemused to realize that I can't really picture a MDZS crossover event because lbr if WWX and LWJ wandered into one of the villages that had been recently blessed w the WoH pair's brand of chaos it would be straight up, "...Xue. Yang. Must. Die." territory and... they have LITERAL MAGIC.
* Ghost Valley vs a corpse army = novel!Wen Sect vs a corpse army = lolz
* basically, HE'S A WIZARD HARRY. your boy wei ying can kill u harder the more of you he slays & the beat don't stop, this is bad math for the wuxia pugilist world
* I am indeed enjoying the series enough to step back and crack open Lord Seventh to read the novel that introduces the Window of Heaven and ZZS. I've gotten about 1/3 of the way through and honestly, I love it. Fantastic read so far. I'm only conflicted in that the crown prince is a character I'm growing very attached to and his characterization in Word of Honor is a DISRESPECT!!!!1 (bro is far from perfect, he's ambitious and paranoid like any imperial son who will sit on the throne, but I do buy-in on him being a comparatively good option. In the same vein as the emperor in Yanxi Palace, he might be an inconsistent friend/lover but it seems like he basically gives a crap about the country and decreasing corruption and safeguarding the populace. As cdrama emperors go, 7/10.)
Frankly, I just headcanon that that's part of the WoH drama AU set up: the WoH Prince isn't actually Helian Yi, he's one of the other 2 brothers.
I dunno, maybe I will change my POV on this once I get to Faraway Wanderers. Maybe the Crown Prince will really get fully corrupted by absolute power and become a pathetic shell of himself.

Bunny boy
People said that every family has a little demon in the house and now that Jiang Cheng has his own headache, he could understand why his mother was pissed out half of time when Wei Wuxian was in the house.
N/A:  Xicheng’s family and Lan Jingyi as Xicheng’s love child. Btw, how do you said “Me pase po”? Like I need to know how to express that feeling when I forgot to publish my daily draft.
For the #CultivaTober2020, sorry if my English sucks.
Day 29: Demon
.
When Sizhui started a group facetime call after the online class, he didn’t expected to see at his best friend in that state. “Jingyi, are you okay?”
Jingyi chuckled before to answer and it was painful to see. 
“Yes, why?”
Jin Ling frowned at the other side of the phone screen, looking his cousin red swollen cheek “Well, you have a hand printed in your left cheek.”
Jingyi started to laugh at the memory.
Oh my god, he has to tell Jin Ling about this before his Dad punishes him cutting the wifi!
“Dude, yesterday I heard my parents fucking and hAHAHA” 
Jingyi’s left cheek it hurts like a bitch when he laughs, but it was a pain that was worth it. 
“...And when I was going to turn up the volume on my headphones, I heard my Dad saying ‘I’m your bunny boy!’” He even dare to imitate the panting voice tone that none of his friends asked for. “So today when he was scolding me for forgetting to defrost the chicken, I told him ‘keep calm, bunny boy!’ HAHAHA.”
Jin Ling looked dumbfounded as Zizhen burst out laughing.
“yOU DID WHAT?”
“Lan Jingyi, you are my fucking hero!” Adds Zizhen, still laughing for his friend imprudence and bravery. 
“I wish I would recorded it, but you know. It just came naturally!”
Sizhui chuckled, nervously “Take care of yourself, Jingyi.”
“Don’t worry, Sizhui. It’s just a slap!” He tells him, knowing that his Dad slapped him with the hand free of rings. But Sizhui didn’t knew that and still seems worried.
In the other side, Jin Ling overcame the shock stage.
“Sometimes I don’t know if you are just crazy or you just want to die early” declares with ears all red after knowing his uncle's kinks. Fuck, he didn’t wished to know that.
Sizhui thought that Jingyi was already dead, but Jingyi just didn’t knows.
In the other side, Zizhen cheers him “Good luck to get your Dad’s forgiveness, bro!” 
“Thank you, bro! I would need it!”
.     ·  ✦
“Where is the little demon?”
“A-Cheng, don’t call our son like that”, Xichen tell him off, lying on the couch. He had a really long and tiring day in the hospital.
Jiang Cheng snorted, furious. People said that every family has a little demon in the house and now that Jiang Cheng has his own headache, he could understand why his mother was pissed out half of time when Wei Wuxian was in the house.
Seems like his baby boy spent a lot of time with his fucking uncle Wei.
“Then, where is your son?”
Xichen raised an eyebrow, unbelieving “So now he’s my son?”
“Well, your dearest son heard us tonight.”
“What?”
Jiang Cheng wanted to punch something, he really needs to punch something. He never slapped his son before, but this time Jingyi asked for a fucking slap on his face “And he had the nerve to call me bunny boy, can you believe it?”
Xichen tries to hold the laugh on his throat, but he can't not laugh.
Jingyi is only thirteen years and he’s this reckless.
Adolescence would be a nightmare, Xichen thinks as he tried to collect himself. 
Yet, his husband seemed very offended.
“Are you laughing, Lan Huan?”
If glares could kill, Lan Xichen would be dead by two bolts of lightning.
.     ·  ✦
That night when Xichen goes to Jingyi’s room with an ice bag in the hand and the dinner in the other one, he didn’t expected to see his dear son with a swollen cheek and smiling brightly.
Jingyi had a slapped cheek, but at least he was happy.
Xichen put the dinner in Jingyi’s desk before to check his child's face  “What have you done, A-Yi?”
“Sorry father, did I mess your night time with Dad?”
“Don’t worry about that”, he says as he applies the ice bag in his son’s injured cheek, without overlooking the worried glint in Jingyi eyes. “Worry about how to get your Dad’s forgiveness.”
Jingyi whines a little, before to speaks again so blatantly.
“Dad will forgive me, I’m his favorite son!”
“Jingyi, you are our only son.”
“What are you implying, father? Princess, Jasmine and Love are my sisters!”
Xichen smiles, resigned. He knew that it would end like this since the day that Jiang Cheng convinced him to adopt three little dogs that will grow up with Jingyi.
“It’s not the same, A-Yi.”
How not? Jingyi thinks, “See, that’s why I am my Dad’s favorite. I know that pets are family too!”
Xichen sighs, bringing him the tray with the dinner.
“Eat something before food gets cold.”

Farmer Lan’s Rewatch Guide to The Untamed - Episode 8
Tumblr media
Does it feel like she’s leading us into a trap? Naaaaah.
episode masterlist here
SPOILER WARNING!
[Wei Wuxian is upset that Lan Wangji went off to search for the Yin metal himself. Jiang Cheng shows up and asks if Wei Wuxian is planning to eat the rabbits and we see Lan Wangji watching them as they leave, bidding them farewell after they’ve left.
Meanwhile, Lan Xichen is harassed by WC and he is not taking any of that shit. Wen Chao threatens to go after Lan Wangji and sees a reaction from Lan Xichen. Satisfied, he leaves. Also, we learn that Wei Wuxian has basically eloped to be with Lan Wangji instead of returning to Yunmeng with the Jiang sect. Wen Chao sets an owl after them.]
Differences from the novel:
Nope. Not in the novel. Mooooving on.
[Wei Wuxian binds Lan Wangji’s wrists to his so that Lan Wangji will stop leaving him behind and they make their way to Tanzhou. Wei Wuxian is having a grand ol’ time shopping and then Nie Huaisang also shows up, so they’re having a blast while Lan Wangji is off to the side wondering when these idiots will knock it off (but really we all know he’s jealous). At Yunmeng, we see Jiang Cheng setting off to find his wayward bro.
Wei Wuxian grabs Lan Wangji’s arm and drags him over to the crowd - turns out there’s a damsel nearby - and legend has it that she awards long-lasting, beautiful flowers to anyone who impresses her with their poetry. At that moment, petals start falling from the sky. Nie Huaisang and Wei Wuxian are both admiring Lan Wangji (I mean, who wouldn’t), who is basking in the flowers, until they are once again interrupted by the movements of the Yin metal.]
Differences from the novel:
Still not in the novel, since, you know, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji do not embark on a quest to find the Yin metal in the past. In its stead, what happens in Chapter 19 (post-Gusu flashback) is:
Wei Wuxian wakes up in Lan Wangji’s room (Jing Shi), and tells the juniors that he’s extremely tired from a lack of sleep due to NIGHT ACTIVITIES with Lan Wangji - keep in mind he’s still Mo Xuanyu and desperately trying to get out of Gusu by being as deplorable as possible. The juniors lead him to Little Apple, because they are at a loss as to what to do. The donkey will not shut up and the elders are losing their patience lol. Wei Wuxian then discovers a whole field of rabbits, only to learn that they are all Lan Wangji’s rabbits - yes, all of them. Wei Wuxian dies of laughter internally at the thought of him raising all these rabbits because he knows exactly where they came from.
Wei Wuxian and the juniors then rush to the watchtower as the alarm bells start ringing (literally), signalling that something has gone wrong with a spirit summoning ritual. Wei Wuxian enters the tower and sees Lan Wangji and a bunch of elders, including Lan Qiren. Everyone has fainted from the dark energy except for Lan Wangji, and with a duet they are able to finally temporarily suppress the demonic arm. Wei Wuxian intentionally plays terribly to make sure he doesn’t give himself away, so badly that he rouses Lan Qiren, only for him to shout “NO MORE! LEAVE! STOP--!” before fainting again lol. Poor man has been thoroughly traumatized. They realize that they need to find the other parts of the corpse to successfully understand how to quell the arm’s resentful spirit, so they embark on a quest which links up with post-flashback Episode 33 of the drama series.
From a chronological perspective, we’re not told what happens post-Gusu Lan in the book. Presumably, the next time they meet is during the archery contest when Wei Wuxian pulls off Lan Wangji’s ribbon lol. But they don’t embark on any side adventures together or anything.
[Suddenly, we cut to a razed courtyard (which turns out to be the florist’s mansion) and the protags find evidence that it is Wen Chao’s doing and that he’s tailing them with the owl. Turns out the flower event is all a plot to find the other pieces. Wen Chao refuses to listen to daddy and continues to head to Da Fan Shan instead of helping Xue Yang. It’s also revealed that Da Fan Shan is where Wen Qing’s family and ancestors are from originally - so they’re probably a distant offshoot of the Wen sect, or absorbed into the Wen sect somehow.
Jiang Cheng and Wen Qing run into each other at the tavern and idk what is going on (is this...flirting?) but it turns out Wen Qing is just trying to create an opportunity to warn Jiang Cheng that Wei Wuxian is in danger at Da Fan Shan.
The trio run into a crazy grandma at Da Fan Shan and make the connection that the temple and the snatching of the spirits = Yin metal! They spend the night at the temple, and the statue starts moving. After a fierce battle with the statue, it appears they’ve finally sealed it. Meanwhile, the whole town of puppets have converged upon them. Turns out - it was all a trap by Wen Chao to lure them into the temple. But wow, can the puppets move any slower?? I am aging as we speak.]
Differences from the novel:
The only event that occurs at Da Fan Shan in the novel is the part leading up to meeting Jin Ling/Jiang Cheng for the first time post-resurrection. Wen Qing and Wen Ning are indeed a branch of the Wen sect and not direct descendants of Wen Ruohan, but we’re not told where exactly they were from.
There is, however, the damsel of the flowers story! The novel goes into way more detail - it’s in Chapter 45, right after they all leave Yi city. They pass by an abandoned garden, and Lan Sizhui (!!) says he read that it was once the garden of an elf spirit who gave out flowers to poets, but if you recited incorrectly, she would come out and hit them in the face with flowers, causing them to faint, only to find themselves thrown out of the garden by the time they had awakened. Even though she was rumored to be extremely beautiful, no one had ever seen her face...except Wei Wuxian. The story goes that he persisted in reciting the wrong poem over twenty times, getting tossed out each time until he finally glimpsed her face, and then bragged to everyone about it LOL. The juniors are like holy hell he’s aggravating, and Wei Wuxian is like a) which dork recorded this in a book, b) where did you find the time to read about trivial stuff like this Sizhui, clearly none of you are studying properly so you’re all writing lines when we get back and c) who hasn’t done something like this?! It’s called youth hellooo?!
Overall thoughts:
The majority of this is not in the novel again (it gets better in Episode 10, lol) and I actually got curious because I’m like well...what’s IN the novel but NOT in the drama, because the drama covered a lot of ground but also had all this extra stuff in it. So I flipped through and honestly it’s pretty remarkable how much ground they covered.
There is a bunch of Lan Wangi/Wei Wuxian scenes cut out for censorship (Chapter 12 when they first go back to Gusu, Lan Wangji getting drunk THREE times (vs. only once in the drama excluding the Gusu Lan arc), a fair amount of the Phoenix Mountain hunt, the confession…) and there’s a bit more detail in the writing (for e.g. the damsel of the flowers story, the meaning of the Gusu ribbon etc.) that adds more interaction and relationship building between characters. But really, I think rewatching the drama has made me realize how they’ve really done a great job of bringing essentially the same story to screen.

TianShan Week 2018
Day 1: Vacation 
A big, FAT thanks to my beta reader and best bro: @alexc1ting grazie bruh
ao3
«Oh my, GuanShan! I’ve never seen you so tanned before» exclaimed GuanShan’s mom, looking closely at his arms and caressing his cheek «You look so different! And look at your hair! It's even brighter!» she smiled fondly «Did you have fun? I bet you did u-hu? With all your friends. I’m almost jealous!»
«Um» sighed GuanShan, looking at his luggage
His mother followed his eyes «Oh, are you tired? Was the travel long?»
GuanShan nodded «Yeah... kind of»
His mother took the luggage from his hands «Alright, I’m going to take care of this, you get some rest. You're going to tell me everything at dinner. You did take some pictures right? Student He told me that the destination was a surprise so I’m pretty curious~»
GuanShan nodded again, dragging himself lazily towards his room, which he entered: everything was exactly how he has left three weeks ago, the day when He Tian had suddenly showed up at 5 am.
He sat down at his desk, looking at his bed and inevitably remembering that morning: his mother, waking him up, saying that He Tian was waiting for him in the living room.
«Who?» asked GuanShan, half asleep
«He Tian» repeated his mom «Don't make him wait»
GuanShan sat down, confused as his mother took a luggage from nowhere, already full with clothes.
«Wha- where did you get that? What's happening?»
His mother took clothes from a bag, handing them to GuanShan «Here, go take a shower»
«Mom, it's winter, why are you giving me a tank top and shorts pants?» for a moment GuanShan thought he was still sleeping.
But then his mother pushed him out of his room towards the bathroom and in the corridor he saw He Tian, laying against the wall, smiling innocently at him. No, innocently wasn't the right word more like... victorious.
«'Morning little Mo~»
GuanShan gritted his teeth, sending He Tian a death glare «AND WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?!»
«Here’s the luggage He Tian»
«MOM!»
«Thanks Auntie»
«WHAT IN THE CHICKEN DICK IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW??»
While He Tian was taking his luggage God only know where, his mom looked at him, shaking her head.
«GuanShan, why are you still here? Shower, now!»
Again, she was pushing him «Mom, what-»
«Also brush your teeth!»
GuanShan first looked at the closed door, then at himself in the mirror
“It has to be a dream” he thought.
Twenty minutes later he was freshly showered, dressed, and out of the bathroom, his mother waiting for him.
«Ready?» she asked
«It's freaking freezing mom! What the heck is this all about?» he frowned «Are you...kicking me out?»
«Of course not you silly! Here take this backpack. There's your phone, headphones, a camera, your wallet, I put some money there, buy some souvenirs!»
«Souvenirs?»
«Let me walk you to the car»
«I think my head is about to implode»
Outside,the sun was still low at the horizon and  he found himself shaking as the freezing morning air hit him.
A big black car was waiting for him.
He stopped a few feet away from it
«This is madness» he said
« GuanShan hurry!» His mother took him by his hand guiding him to the car; before opening the car's door he looked at her
«Mom…» he whined.
She smiled, hugging him tightly. After a moment of hesitation GuanShan hugged her back, noticing how small she has become from the last time they hugged each other.
«Don't think about anything, have fun with your friends and make a lot of good memories. You deserve it»
He heard her sniffing but before he could look at her face he heard the sound of the one of the back car’s door opening and then she literally shoved him inside.
When he recollected himself he could just look at his mother more and more far away through the car's window.
«Hey redhead»
GuanShan snapped at his side: Jian Yi was sitting beside him at the back of the car, and at the front passenger’s seat was Zheng Xi. No sign of He Tian.
A guy in a black suit was driving the car.
«What are you fuckers doing here?»
«What?» pouted Jian Yi «Don't worry we’re not going to disturb you and He Tian»
GuanShan gritted his teeth, and he felt some of his veins popping with pure rage.
«Somebody better start explaining 'cause I’m about to kill someone»
Zheng Xi shacked his head «We don't know either, He Tian said he was going to take us somewhere nice»
«WHAT THE FUCK? WHAT ABOUT ASKING?»
Jian Yi smiled «I don't care as long as I'm with XiXi~»
«Who the fuck cares!! And where the hell is He dog’s shit eating Tian, he was at my house just a few moments ago! Thinks he can do whatever he fucking wants!»
Jian Yi was covering his ears «You're so loud! Does anyone ever told you that?»
GuanShan took him by the collar «How dare YOU telling me something like that?!?!»
Jian Yi struggled pushing GuanShan's face away «XiXi!! Help!»
«'m going to sleep» answered Zheng Xi, yawning and lazily resting his head.
After some minutes of fighting they finally settled down, and GuanShan noted that Jian Yi and Zhen Xi were also wearing clothes that clearly weren't for winter, he asked about it and apparently it was part of He Tian's instructions, the other was to arrive at the airport at 6am.
After getting out of the car, they were guided by two others men through the airport and they brought them to an hangar where, beautifully shining, an airplane was waiting to leave.
«Is that…» said Jian Yi «A freaking personal jet?? One of those you see in movies??»
GuanShan and Zheng Xi were both admiring the beautiful machine, jaws dropped.
«What in the actual fuck…» whispered GuanShan.
«AWESOME! AWESOME!» was shouting Jian Yi, shaking Zheng Xi’s arm, who shoved him aside
«Where's He Tian?»
And, as summoned, He Tian showed up at the jet’s door, arms crossed... looking all satisfied and tall and cool and... GuanShan stopped his train of thought there.
«What are you dumb heads doing down there? Hurry up, we’re about to take off»
Jian Yi, hanging into Zheng Xi arm, dragged him towards the stairs «He Tian~ I’m totally re-evaluating you! XiXi! Let's go! I want to see how's inside!»
«Stop pulling me idiot!»
As Jian Yi and Zheng Xi entered the jet, GuanShan didn't move a single step, looking annoyed towards He Tian who, slightly tilting his head, crossed his legs resting his shoulder against the cold metal.
«Aren't you coming Mo?»
«Of course not you shady, conceited bastard! What the hell is this uh?»
«This?» He Tian looked over his shoulder «An airplane if I’m not wrong»
GuanShan gritted his teeth «Don't you dare fuck with me! Where are you taking us?»
He Tian smiled «Of course, that's a surprise, isn't it?»
«And what? You thought I would just follow you like that? You're just as crazy! I’m not coming with you jackasses!»
He Tian lowly chuckled «I don't think you have a choice»
«Of course I do!»
He Tian took just one step down «I could always bring you up here with force» his eyes darkened, and his voice was low.
GuanShan took one step back «Y-you wouldn't dare!»
He Tian smiled, taking a second step «Really now? Wouldn't I? I’m not sure about that...are you?»
“OF COURSE NOT!” thought GuanShan, how could he be sure about something when He Tian was involved? Look at him! He was in a freaking hangar, dressed in shorts in full winter! And he didn't even know how all of that could happen!
He Tian took a third step.
GuanShan clicked his tongue «WHATEVER!» he shouted, climbing the stairs, stomping furiously each step.
As soon as he passed next to He Tian, he felt him nudging at his shoulder, at witch GuanShan retorted with an angry snort.
The inside of the jet was simply something out of his wildest imagination: it was like the inside of a luxurious hotel. Everything was sparkling, silky seats and expensive furniture. TV, mini bar and somewhere at the back of the airplane he heard Jian Yi screaming «A freaking king size bed?!?»
He Tian chuckled behind him, pointing at the seats «Make yourself at home, I’m going to talk to the pilot»
GuanShan didn't answer, looking at He Tian disappearing into the pilot's cabin.
Then, he carefully sat down into one of the seat, caressing its soft material, that chair alone was probably worth his whole room furniture .
At that moment a hostess walked past him, perfectly dressed up and looking like a model, smiling elegantly and slightly bowing.
«Sir, would you kindly give me your luggage?»
GuanShan's mouth went ajar for a moment while his mind started to process those simple words, didn't He Tian took his luggage at his house? Then, the lady graciously lowered her eyes towards his backpack.
GuanShan felt his cheeks going on fire «O-oh» he said, hanging out the bag «Yeah, sure»
After placing it inside the compartment, she thanked him and bowed again, disappear into the other side of the airplane.
At that moment something occurred to him: it was the first time for him to fly on a airplane. And even though it burned, he had to admit that he felt kind of agitated.
What was he supposed to do? Did the take off felt weird?
He was so deep in thoughts that he almost missed He Tian calling him
«Are you alright?» he asked, noticing his slightly paler face
GuanShan gritted his teeths «What's it to you?»
He Tian shrugged «Everything's ready, I need to call those two idiots»
GuanShan eyes widened «A-already?»
He Tian tilted his head, folding his arms «Are you... afraid of flying?»
«WHO'S AFRAID YOU USELESS PIECE OF SHIT?!»
«Mmm~» smiled He Tian, taking a few steps towards him «It's your first time?»
His voice was so low that GuanShan couldn't help but feel the hidden innuendo behind those words, he fought though with all his might, pushing He Tian away and trying to retrieve his backpack, unfortunately the compartment was locked.
He Tian chuckled gripping his shoulders and turning GuanShan towards him.
«I’ll tell you what you need to do» he whispered
«Let fucking go of-»
«First» interrupted him He Tian «You sit down» and by slightly pushing him in his chest, He Tian made GuanShan fall back in his seat
«HEY!»
«Then…» both of He Tian's hands rested upon GuanShan's thighs, who horrified paralyzed himself, as those hands started moving up.
GuanShan looked at them, moving then his eyes towards He Tian's
«Wha- ?wha-?»  
He Tian grinned as his hands disappeared behind GuanShan hips; he was ready to shout his lungs out when, immediately, those hands come back out, holding the two sides of a black belt.
«...you buckle this up» continued He Tian, buckling the belt with a click and getting up straight slowly «And let the airplane do the work»
GuanShan felt so much rage that he had the impression that his heart was about to explode in his chest...wait, what? That's not how rage wor-.
«Whaa?? Redhead’s scared? Laaame~»
Jian Yi and Zheng Xi came back from their little adventure.
GuanShan's punched his seat while the other two young boy sat down too.
«What do you know asshole?»
Jian Yi buckled his belt, thinking «Well, we did went to that school trip together, didn't we XiXi?»
«Um» nodded Zheng Xi «Last year»
«Fuck you guys!»
He Tian took place beside him «Don't be afraid little Mo, here: you can take my hand»
«Fuck you! I want to get out!»
He Tian smiled devilishly «Too late for that».
With the corner of his eye, GuanShan saw the same hostess closing the airplane’s door, and with a gulp, he felt cold sweat rolling down his spine.
The flight was lightly longer than two hours, and after the shock of the take off, GuanShan spent most of the time admiring the view under their eyes. It was amazing how everything looked so small and distant. After the first hour all he could see was open sea, all the way to the distance.
“Where the fuck are we going?” thought GuanShan, admiring the beautiful shades of blue shining at the sunlight.
Then he saw it, in the distance: a little dot of pure white sand.
«Is that a freaking island??» Jian Yi had screamed.
And it seemed that yes, they were landing on an island in the middle of nowhere.
As soon as the airplane touched the ground, and the door was open GuanShan finally understood why He Tian has made them dress like that: wherever they were it was HOT.
«Hey» called him He Tian.
GuanShan looked back, blinking at the light burning his eyes.
«W-what?»
He Tian chuckled, handing him his luggage «You can be amazed later, we need to go now the car's waiting»
«SHUT UP!» answered GuanShan, throwing a punch to the air.
They all got on a car, and suddenly Jian Yi called GuanShan «You forgot this» he said, handing his backpack
«Thank- is that my camera?!»
Jian Yi hid the camera behind him «C'mon we both know you're not going to use it. Lend it to me! I'm going to capture a lot of good memories!» he winked at him.
GuanShan stared blanky at him «You're just going to take photos of Zheng Xi you fucker»
Jian Yi snapped his fingers «Correction: I'm ALSO taking photos of Zheng Xi in a swimsuit»
«What?» he said
«Forget the last part. Please Redhead?»
He sighed «Whatever. But if you break it I'm going to kill you»
«Yes!» and right after that he took the first picture of GuanShan, blinding him
«Stop you asshole!»
The car left the airport and took and old road surrounded by trees and palms.
Jian Yi was simply over the edge «Where's the beach? Where's the beach? WHERE'S THE BEACH?!?»
«SO LOUD! SHUT UP!» silenced him Zheng Xi.
GuanShan sighed, like that was the point of the whole situation. Well...not that he wasn't curious but…
«THERE!!! I SEE IT!!»
GuanShan's train of thoughts stopped there: he saw it at his left, curving lightly and following the line of the coast, water shining with so many shades of blue and sand as white as whipped cream.
He didn't even realized when he got out of the car, he just stood there, walking slowly towards the beach.
He was...not used to his eyes looking so far at the distance. Not anymore.
He had almost forgotten that outside of his room, his house, school, and his all city...the world could be so much spacious and silent. For a moment he stood there, still, taking all in that new feeling of surprise.
«Do you like it?» asked a voice somewhere behind him.
«Mn» nodded GuanShan before he could even realize it, then he turned around and saw He Tian.
He felt himself blushing from head to toe. He opened his mouth to shout with all his might but stopped as soon as he saw He Tian looking towards the sea himself and… just smiling.
«I'm glad» he said.
Words died in GuanShan's throat.
He Tian looked so different for a moment: younger and relaxed.
Then he looked back at GuanShan with the corner of his eye and patted his head once.
«Let's go»
It was like that with He Tian.
Like there was always something undone, something untold.
It was there, but GuanShan couldn't grasp it even though it looked so close to him.
From where the car stopped they walked for about two minutes from the beach towards a house immersed into the green and, like everything involved with He Tian, it was something else:
spacious and full of light, with the windows directly faced towards the sea.
He Tian had arranged two bedrooms with two twin beds each, GuanShan was ready to protest but before he could open his mouth, He Tian preceded him «Who's ready for a swim?»
And just like that GuanShan found himself swimming inside a beautiful crystal water, playing cards under the beach umbrella, playing basketball (GuanShan suspected that He Tian had build one just for them), getting sun burnings at his back because like hell he was going to let any of those fuckers touch him, eating watermelons that tasted like heaven, swimming again, playing again.
Like the sea GuanShan found himself following blindly the flow of events that were thrown at him.
And just like that came the sunset, before he could realize it they where back at He Tian's house; he had just showered and was more than ready to just fall asleep.
He laid down, hissing at the burn at his back
«Fuck» he whispered
He Tian entered the room in that moment, shaking his head and showing a bottle of after sun cream.
«Need a hand?»
GuanShan looked at He Tian, then at the bottle and then at the bed, imagining the hell of a night that he would have gone through if he wasn't going to do something about his back.
Maybe it was that thought, or maybe he was just too tired but in the end he turned around
«Don't try anything funny» he said, before grasping the edge of his shirt with the tip of his fingers and raising it enough to uncovering just his back.
He felt the mattress deepens behind him, and right after that He Tian's hand on his skin.
He accidentally flinched, feeling how cold the cream was but also He Tian's fingers.
He Tian chuckled, moving his hand in slow circles
«Sorry about that»
GuanShan grunted, and in an attempt to distract himself from He Tian's touch he said the first thing that came into his mind «When are you going to tell me where we are?»
He Tian moved his hand from his shoulders to the center of his back «Does it matter though? Just enjoy the moment would ya?»
GuanShan snorted «Like I could. I don't even know why you would do this for us»
He Tian's hand stopped «Maybe I'm just doing it for myself»
«Yeah right. You're not like that» it just came out so naturally, that his mouth just blurted it out. And it looked like that day it was happening a little too much. With the corner of his eyes he could see He Tian's eyes widened with surprise.
He gritted his teeth, taking a big breath and ready to yell, when he felt He Tian's forehead resting at the nape of his neck.
He didn't have the courage to talk, or to move.
Then, He Tian moved raising his head «Thanks»
and right after that He Tian kissed him on that same spot.
«HEY!» shouted GuanShan, almost falling down from the bed.
But He Tian was already up smiling at him «I'm going to shower now~».
And just like that he was gone.
Three weeks went by from that day, days where they just enjoyed their stay in that little corner of the world. Away from everyone, away from everything. Like there were nothing but them and the sea.
And the evening spent eating at the beach, falling asleep till the moon was high in the sky, seeing for the first time millions and millions of stars like he had never seen before. He Tian had also organized a fireworks night, GuanShan couldn't even imagine how. And it was breath taking.
Time kind of disappeared, and days blended into each other.
It was simply nice.
GuanShan was almost ready to admit that he was having fun, in spite that one day...
«GuanShan» a voice called him, waking him up from a deep sleep «Wake up, hurry»
GuanShan opened his eyes, finding He Tian fully clothed in front of him «What do you want?»
«You need to go. Prepare your stuff. Jian Yi and Zheng Xi are already up»
“Oh” thought GuanShan “We're going home. Why didn't he tell us yesterday?”.
Then he looked at his phone: it was just 3 am.
Weird.
He looked around and he noticed someone waking outside of the house, he also heard weird noises coming from the kitchen.
«What the fuck is going on?»
He Tian tossed some clothes against him «There's no time, hurry»
Trying to ignore the weirdest feeling of déjà vu, GuanShan followed He Tian's instructions, and in less than ten minutes they were out of the house, while waiting for Jian Yi and Zheng Xi to put they luggage inside of the car, GuanShan looked back at the house...he would have lied if he would have said that he wasn't kind of sorry that it was just going to end like that, but it was going to happen sooner or later. Thought... something was definitely off.
When they got into the car, Jian Yi fell asleep over Zheng Xi shoulder, GuanShan looked at him, then to He Tian sitting in the passenger seat in front of him.
«Not that I care, but what's the hurry? There's like… a storm or something?»
He Tian smiled, but something in that smile was off too.
«Kind of»
At the airport things get even weirder, at least twenty men in black clothes were patrolling the entire area, and there was a car, in a parking lot, surrounded by at least eight of those weird guys. Black windows and clearly waiting for someone.
They all got out.
Jian Yi was the first getting on the plane, followed by Zheng Xi and right after him GuanShan. But before taking the last step into the plane he turned back: He Tian was at the bottom of the stairs. His hands deep inside his pockets.
GuanShan looked around them, a strong wind rose between them.
Two men were behind He Tian, looking ready to escort him.
The car who took them had already left, everything felt cold and different from just a few hours ago.
Why wasn't He Tian telling him what was happening? Why couldn't he be for once the one to share his plan? He followed him into this place with no words, trusting him. Why couldn't he do the same?
GuanShan stared at him, tired.
«If you're not going to take this plane with us, I'm done with you. Don't ever talk to me, don't ever look for me. I'm just going to forget about you»
He Tian lowered his eyes, took a deep breath.
And when he raised his eyes, even though he was smiling...he looked so, so freaking hurt. Like he was about to fall to his feet.
«That» he said, his voice heavy «Might be for the best».
GuanShan didn't waste another second looking at him, he went inside, sitting in his seat.
Jian Yi and Zheng Xi looked at each other, confused, but GuanShan was blind and deaf to their voices. And it was like that for all the flight, till he got into the taxi that took him back home.
When he woke up and his hands caressed his sheets, if felt weird to not find little bits of sand between it, and it felt weird that the hair didn't smelt of salsedine. But most of all, that there was no bed besides him, with He Tian on it, breathing slowly, with his dark hair scattered over the white pillow.
He blinked a few times, reminding himself that he wasn't on a desert island anymore. Thinking something like that was even weirder than just dreaming about it. But it wasn't a dream, it really happened. And that ugly weight to his stomach was killing him.
Then, someone knocked at his door «GuanShan honey?»
«Mom» yawned GuanShan, sitting up «Come in»
His mother peeked out of the door, smiling softly at him «You're awake dear? Dinner's ready»
GuanShan nodded «How much did I slept?»
«Just a couple of hours. Oh and before I forget» she entered the room «Look what I got!»
She put a camera on GuanShan's desk.
The redhead looked at it, widening his eyes
«How?» he asked
«Your friend Jian Yi came here a while ago. He was in a hurry so he told me to not wake you. Also, he said that, and I quote, “you should definitely, absolutely look at this”» she smiled «Isn't he nice?»
GuanShan nodded «Yeah»
His mother smiled «Alright, come eat when you're done»
GuanShan took the camera in his hands, he had almost forgot about it. Probably because Jian Yi was so focused on taking photos of Zheng Xi only, that he had probably didn't notice him using it.
He tried to turn it on.
«Battery's dead» he said.
He took an USB cable and connect it with his computer.
At first he just wanted to let it charge, then he thought that no matter how much of an idiot Jian Yi was he wouldn't ask him to look at it if it was just to look at a bunch of Zheng Xi’s pictures.
He sat in front of his computer, searching for the camera’s fold.
He looked at it, and after a second he opened it.
There were at least five hundred photos.
Most of them (he could see without even opening them) were, as he predicted, of Zheng Xi; other were of some random objects or sea view, or some of the house. The others thought…
It started with the first, of him and He Tian walking together while reaching the house. One at the beach, again one besides the other.
While eating.
While drinking.
One even when they were sleeping at the beach.
In a video, during the fireworks night, also there, they were standing by each other.
GuanShan looked shocked at the pictures. He thought he was kind of aware of how He Tian could be clingy sometimes. But this...he just never noticed.
In every photo they were never more than three feet away from each other.
So maybe it wasn't just He Tian... could it be, could it be that he also…?
Then he noticed, a video.
On the preview he could see the date, and it was probably made a few hours before they went home.
He Tian's face was on close up.
He clicked play.
And suddenly He Tian was looking at him, smiling.
« Thank you for sharing all of this with me GuanShan. I'll never, ever forget it. Those were the happiest days of my life. Forget about this place, it would have been the same even if it was on the shittiest place on the planet. But it would have been with you, and I would be as happy as I am now. Let's have fun tomorrow too, together. I'll see you there»
GuanShan had never felt a pang so hard in his heart.
He took a deep breath and saw tears falling down from nowhere to his desk, he snarled rubbing furiously his arm over his eyes.
He looked at his phone, pouting «I hate him so fucking much»
somewhere far away 
He Tian phone's buzzed in his pocket.
He didn't want to look at it, he didn't want in fact to do anything. Every trace of force had left him.
After a few minutes he took it anyway.
A message.
He unlocked it.
“I'll be waiting”

oh gosh the8 is really showing us how hard seventeen works to get their choreo super in sync wow they really must work so hard.... wow minghao giving up the center position bc he knows how important this is to these kids... he deserves more recognition as a great mentor wow
oh my goodness.......... li zhenning’s voice shaking as he says to shi mingze “if you can get into top 20, then you’ll have hope” is.... the most heartbreaking......... knowing that shi mingze doesnt.......... they literally were smiling as they went off into this corner to talk and are crying by the time they come out..... can you just imagine how much sadness and stress is constantly looming over these kids’ heads and tearing down at their mental health?? its all hidden and suppressed, but with really fragile borders, so as soon as you pick at the walls, their raw emotions come bursting through... 
Tumblr media
this just reminds me that even tho shi mingze is their cool, handsome leader, hes still the youngest in bg project............
can we please talk about how considerate of a friend li zhenning is and has been?? 
and this all took place before zhenning ever ranked into top 9.... so to them, this opportunity wouldve been really important for zhenning too, bc maybe he wouldve really needed it to get into top 9. but at least we know now.... he has enough popularity that they made the correct choice and hopefully more people will notice shi mingze as a result

Tumblr media
idk whose outfit is distracting me more, xu bingchao or xixi’s LOL shao haofan looks so nice here wow and ding feijun is so adorable even tho this is a more mature concept but i still cant see him as anything but a cute child
maybe its the way they cut up the lines but idk this song didnt really show off their vocal abilities that well..... sorry xixi :( i think xixi’s voice deserved better time to shine on this show...... his and feng junjie’s voices are actually both so nice i was so impressed when i saw them singing in the oaca clips
this koala ad makes me very uncomfortable......
wenhan reaches into the box and pulls out..... costco brand blueberries??!?!?/1 hHhahahhahHAHAHHA

feng junjie with the voice!!!!!!1 
JOLIN THE QUEEN
still kinda wish jia yi had more opportunity to sing on this show......... hes like second main vocalist to zhan yu in tyger but i feel like he hasnt gotten to show his voice much :( he did really well tho!!! he really has impressive stage presence
omg lin mo’s super shy “1 day” ahhhhh 
omg wang jiayi looks like hes about to cry... the poor child....
yixing reaching out to apologize to them.... hes really so caring towards them...... wang jiayi just needs more confidence!! i believe in him too
where did lin mo get this white cap from? lol he chose the pink one..... on a related note, im so happy lin mo got to be in yixing’s group, bc from the beginning with namanana hes really really tried so hard to earn yixing’s recognition, im sure it means a lot to him to be able to learn from him like this and share a stage with him 
yao mingming too, i feel like he really values yixing’s recognition as well
i think all the kids in this group had to have known that picking yixing’s group would be the most tiring and require the most effort, but i think choosing this group regardless just really shows they came here to learn 
A HAPPY BABYYY
Tumblr media
omg like yixing is really /teaching/ them and i appreciate that
lin mo and xu fangzhou’s voices!!!!!!
OOF IM SO READY FOR THIS OUTFIT 
Tumblr media
ASLDKALSDKJLAK HE WINKED!!!!!!!!!!!

Tumblr media
OOF HES GETTING MORE LINES THAN I EXPECTED TOO
you know how ive talked about how i love how much detail lin mo puts into his dancing, including even his slight head tilts? LOOK ANOTHER HEAD TILT 
Tumblr media
HAHAHAHHAHA GUAN YUE’S EYES GOT SO BIG HAHAHHAHA OMGGG
ooof lin mo getting to sing the chorus with yixing im !!!!!! im sure hes so grateful for this opportunity wow also i think i mentioned this with namanana but i really think lin mo suits yixing’s dance style, like its a style that hes pulls off really well, so i think he got to shine a bit in this performance :’)
ok i havent said this yet but what is with that thick black fade at the top of the screen its so annoying??? like why you gotta cover the top of their heads??? 
Tumblr media
wow we’re really getting a lot of random lin mo shots hahahha is this iqiyi repenting their wrongs from ‘spirit of the knight’ i almost am surprised how yao mingming isnt getting the most screentime but then i remember iqiyi has never favored yao mingming........ /sigh
AYYY WENXUAN AND LIN MO THE BUDDIES
Tumblr media

-oh my gosh are we getting a sayid centric episode???? Is it his time at last??!??
-Oh what that? A rope? A BOAT??!?!
-we’re following the rope chain, the rope chain, the rope chain, we’re following the rope chain, where ever it may go
-Looks like it’s going to be a musical episode folks
-Ah Jack, back at it again with that bedside manner
-Sawyer for the last time stop it with the casual racism I’ve had it up to here
-But yes continue to call Jack out on his bull, you’re the only one who does it consistently and for that I appreciate you
-THEY’RE IN FUCKING HIGHSCHOOL LOOK AT THAT SMUG LITTLE GRIN
-You ain’t got nothing to be proud of Sawyer, you coerced that makeout sesh and you know it
-IT WAS NOT AN ACCIDENT IT WAS A DELIBERATE CHOICE
-Coming out here saying “accident” how dare you
-Sayid offered and you accepted knowing full well what you were doing
-“accident” Jesus Christ are you a man or a shady government, Jack you’re the worst. And watch now as he still maintains his moral high horse, god damn he really is the Finn of Lost, at least Sayid admitted what he did and took moral responsibility you sanctimonious ass
-Folks I’ve realised I don’t like Jack very much
-Maybe you’ve noticed ...
-Remember how Jack was supposed to die in the first episode and Kate and Sayid were gonna be the leads? Yeah me too.
-SAYID NO
-Oh thank god for a minute I thought you were going to deliberately trip the wire
-SAYID NOOOOOOOO
-ouch fuck
-If this is another one of Locke’s damn traps I swear to god he will catch these hands
-I mean a smart and conscientious hunter tells their mates where the traps are so they can avoid them but somehow I don’t think Locke’s been doing that, living his Lord of the Flies fantasy

-Hurley are yOU ACTUALLY GONNA THROW A BEACH PARTY I’M SO EXCITED
-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT NADIA PLEASE NOT NADIA
-Rousseau you a mad lady
-I ask again can you untie him first??? Is this such a big ask? Let him move his arms? Sit up? He doesn’t have to be unrestrained just let him move a bit
-Michael you’re so smart I’m so proud of you
-HE BUILT A GOLF COURSE I’M SO PROUD
-“You didn’t hear about the polar bear?” I’m HOWLING
-also props to the writing team for keeping track of what everyone does and doesn’t know
-Mind AND BODY folks, Hurley’s onto it what a smart cookie

so like. i got into logh fandom and my otp by haunting chn fics (eng ones are so RARE like what guys i’m so sad) and i swear i started out in the reinhard/yang camp but somewhere along the lines i accidentally tripped and fell into reuenthal/yang and NOW I CAN’T GET OUT - don’t help me i’m happily gone.
(but no pls come talk to me i’m so lonely why is no one else i know in this fandom SCREM ;A;)
mind you, all i have canon knowledge of is like. 47 chapters of the fujisaki manga + 3 episodes of DNT & 50 pages of the first translated novel. so uh. i apologise very sincerely to everyone else in this fandom. (but i friggen love DNT yang with his not-so-subtle shade and school boy pout, lemme love you sweetheart. also reuenthal in the manga is A+++++++++ FINE. and mittermeyer is a giant puppy and their hysterical interactions GIVE ME LIFE. i’m all over that like cats on expensive kibble man)
anyway, so there’s me. and my tiny one person raft and i wished so hard that i could draw because like. ARTISTS ARE AMAZING. but i can’t so here have some dodgy ass writing.
i have like. 9k of backstory but i got tired of writing it ??????? slice of life aint my thing bro.
spoilers for the original series below but you probably don’t care LMAO so in reality i’m just cutting it to save your dash.
basic premise is that it’s brain ship AU fic (i’m trash leave me to my can pls) where some of the empire cast (well just reuenthal + mittermeyer ok, the TWIN PILLARS AW YIS) live approx 200 years after the alliance cast did (yang and reinhard still got into their super epic fights as per original time line etc). but as per canon when the THING happens and them creepy earthy church people try to assassinate yang, schonkoff (I HATE SPELLING THEIR NAMES OKAY) finds him in time and tries to rush him to the hospital. but however, because the alliance superiors are dickwads, instead of trying to y’know, save his life, they decided to take the opportunity to upload yang’s consciousness into his ship so that he can continue to fight the war (INDEFINITELY NOW) and then when it WORKS like a motherfreaking miracle, yang wakes up, is silent for about 5 minutes taking everything in and then is kinda like ‘yeah nah’ and promptly runs away into space to chug through history files and drink virtual tea until like. 200 years later, when reunethal picks him up randomly (on the side of a space highway LOL) when yang’s taking whatever a brainship’s equivalent of a nap is but reuenthal obvs doesn’t know that the hyperion is a brainship so \o/ (yang, also a giant troll, decides to let him do whatever. it’s been a long 200 years ok).
it was going to be a long 20k epic where they play chess, overthrow the empire in favour of some form of XXcracy and ~fall in love~ along the way, all that GOOD shit. but i have zero patience and probably am never going to finish it so.
this is literally the first thing i’ve written in about 1.5 years (since i saw star wars oh my god) because my attention span for fandoms and everything else in general TBH is about zero ohoho. 
It was late, but Oskar couldn’t sleep, something restless buzzing at the back of his mind. Whether it was from a combination of the uneasy atmosphere from the crew currently on board, or his irritation at their willingness to jump at a mere ghost story, he wasn’t clear. His chronometer told him that he was due on bridge in about four hours, which was when he decided to give up on sleep entirely and perhaps take a quick walk around the still unfamiliar vessel.
He pushed his arms through his overcoat and exited his temporary quarters. He assumed it had belonged to the long dead fleet admiral of this craft, but there was a scarcity of personal effects that implied that he either hadn’t much down time at all, or wasn’t the type to care much about his decor.
Beyond the physical chess set carved from what looked like real ivory and the few volumes of rare paper books scattered about, there was not much to do in there at any given time.
He strode down the hallway, boot heels clicking gently against the metal floor. He wandered without much of a real purpose, distracted by random bits and pieces and by organising his thoughts from the day, so he could probably be forgiven for finally looking up when he arrived at a dead end and having absolutely no idea where he was.
To call it a dead end wasn’t actually completely true. There was a glimmer of light beneath the wall just to his right, a little bit of feeling about put his hand on a metal door, exactly the same colour and built to close at exactly the same depth as the wall.
The rebels sure were weird in some aspects, Oskar thought, tapping at the side of the wall where he expected the control panel to be. He wasn’t disappointed when the door hissed open quietly to allow him entry.
He only managed a couple of steps forwards before his feet just stopped. This room was nothing but a giant observatory, monitors bigger than any he had ever seen on a ship that did nothing but reflect outside back in. The galaxy and stars spun in a kaleidoscope of colours, whirling around him as the massive flagship flew through space, cutting through the darkness with ease.
He stared, lifting his gaze up, just to watch the splendor of space. It was completely different to his favourite spot on the Tristan, and definitely, the view from there couldn’t hold a light to this. He doubted any ship’s could.
“It’s beautiful isn’t it?” an unfamiliar voice said from somewhere to his left.
Oskar’s hand instinctively went to his hip, where his firearm would usually sit. However, having thrown his clothes on absently in the middle of the night, he had forgotten to slide it into its holster before heading out.
He braced himself grimly. He knew every single person who was currently on this ship, and this voice was not one he recognised at all. He cursed himself for being too distracted by a pretty view instead of securing the room first.
Oskar let his cool gaze sweep the room in a casual sort of manner for a second before he finally spotted the figure standing right up against a massive screen to his left hand side.
The person, a man from his voice and figure, was turned towards him, hands held up as if surrendering. “Sorry, sorry. It’s been so long since -” He cut himself off and slowly walked towards Oskar, hands tucked in his pockets. “Anyway, I don’t mean you any harm, Rear Admiral Reuenthal.”
Oskar kept his weight balanced on the balls of his feet in case of a sudden fight. “You know who I am,” he commented, keeping his voice calm and disinterested.
The man was close enough for Oskar to pick out some details now - tousled dark hair, a double breasted blue coat. His eyes caught on the gleaming gold pin on the man’s lapel, lit for one brilliant moment by a passing star, showing the clear detail of a single line bisecting the pin from left to right, and a solitary gold pentagram sitting proudly in the middle.
An uncomfortable prickle slowly crawled up Oskar’s spine as he remembered his crew whispering about disembodied footsteps and glimpses of shadows turning in hallways.
“Well,” the Rebel Fleet Admiral said, taking a hand out from his left pocket to slide through his already messy hair. “I do tend to make it a habit to know who’s on my ship.”
He seemed to notice Oskar’s unease and stopped, still several steps away. Oskar could tell now that the other man was a head or so shorter and his bearing was very clearly not military, even if his uniform and rank insignia said otherwise.
“Oh,” he seemed to realise something, rubbing the back of his head in a sheepish manner. “Sorry, that’s very rude of me. Julian used to always go on about how I should make it a habit to introduce myself first.”
He smiled then, a warm curve of his lips, and his dark eyes lit up, glittering with stars just like the galaxy behind him. “My name is Yang Wenli. Welcome aboard my ship, the Hyperion.”

am I the only one who’s tired of ppl saying zhanyi have no progress ??? since it’s not true??? because honestly it’s comes from a very specific set of ppl and it just seems more like they’re bitter and refuse to acknowledge anything between them than anything. they’ve come a long way from the beginning of the story and have been showing beautiful progress , ESPECIALLY lately. haters should just stay in their sad cave and focus on what they love.
zhan went from “ew no homo hahahaha jian yi is just mah bro xD” to “omg jian yi baby u ok,, leme get u a glass of water buddy… ah u want a kiss? wanna hold my hand? wanna tell ppl i’m ur baby daddy?? sure sweetiepie xxx anything for u bb”
jian yi went from “can’t let zhan see how i feel,, can’t be showing anything gay… gotta stop myself from loving him more than i already do” to “i’m proud of ME!! i love this guy, this male, this man, and i do not give a fuck. sue me bitch i dare u”
for serious though i can’t wait for more :). i don’t really get why some ppl don’t like zhanyi & have to be a bitch about it. welp, just be respectful and keep it out of the tags 💓

BROTHER SAMSON AND SISTER DEBBIE STORY CONTINUES
May 29, 2014 "Fire of Love"
When I got 2 "mai" lord's place afta d discussion he was fast asleep on d sofa in d parlor, he must have been tired afta d program.."E ku ile o", I said as I opened d door, turning 4m d sofa he slept on, partly opening his eyes, "Uhm, e e kabo..o ma pẹ ẹ kẹ", bro Samson said, closing his eyes again, as I walked 2 d sofa on which he lay sleeping, sat beside his legs, bending 2 remove my pumps. "Sorry. The lady needed some advice on her relationship & u know such could not be given in haste (I did not wait 4 his reply b4 I asked), "se ẹ ti jeun sha?"" ""Igbati mo jeun tan na ni mo ni ki n gbe ehin lele", I did not know when I slept off", bro Samson said turning again on d sofa. "Ounje temi nko?" Debbie asked "I have finished all, "mo ni boya o ti lọ mu oyan die lodo mummy"" bro Samson replied. "But we left 2geda, how do u xpect dat I wil go 2 home without informing u?"Debbie asked as she tried 2 rest her back on d sofa, dis made bro Samson 2 take out his legs 4m her back placing them on her lap.."Ebi lo le mi wonu ile yi o". "Ẹyin ko tile le ba Jesu sọna fun iseju kan pere? Assuming we have not close d service "nkọ"? Bro Samson said. "If we have not finished I will know we have not finished, my system will understand dat & wil have conditioned itself 2 dat", Debbie said yawning. "There is bread and butter in the Freezer, go & refresh yourself with that...and afterwards cook for us", bro Samson said. "Cook for "us" again? Or cook your that is, my food?" Debbie asked. "Ounje ma mu ẹ kárakára loni kẹ...tabi aunti yen ti ko e nifun lo ni?" Bro Samson replied taken off his legs 4m her lap. "Ko ye mi o. I am seriously hungry sha...ebi kì í wonu ki oro miran wọ ọ, let me get the worms in my intestines somethings to hang on to before I cook our food" Debbie said as she stands up going to the freezer...soon she gets to where d freezer was and opened it "kran-in" was d sound heard when it opened. "E gbe awon appetizer yen wa o, ebi npa emi na o", Bro Samson said, as he puts on d paid tv. "Ha-Ha-Ha. I hope we will not take your intestine to the Pacific Republican, ounje yin ti fe poju o", Debbie said. "Ife lafe fi ba ẹ jẹ ẹ. It is you who said we shd be showing our love", bro Samson enthused. "I know u will say dat", says sister Debbie as she closed d freezer, puts the bread, butter and water on a tray carrying them to where brother Samson sits. "Okay. Ki a ma ma lo ifẹ mọ abi?" asked Bro Samson. "I did not say dat...let brotherly and sisterly love continue so says me, Debbie" as Debbie puts d food on d table, slicing the bread with knife and applying butter on its surfaces. "Iwo tebi npa ju lo yẹ ki o kọkọ jẹ nibe", bro Samson said as he puts d sliced buttered bread into sister Debbie's mouth. "But you have not blessed dis food "mai" lord" Sista Debbie talking in between d chewing meal. "Eyin ko nigbagbo bi woro irugbin oka baba, ti eyin ba nigbagbo ni e o mo wipe mimu ti a mu dani yen gan o ti di yiyasimimọ...whatever I touched is sanctified", bro Samson said. "Yes sir", replied sista Debbie as she continued with the application of the butter on d bread. "But for you not to be annoyed, "Oh Lord, sanctify and bless these foods, including d one in my inestimable jewel's mouth & those already swallowed in Jesus name. Amen". Bro Samson said as he tucks d remaining bite of sister Debbie in his hand into his mouth. "Eyin laiye yin. Uhm! Oro yin gan ko ye mi mọ", Debbie said. Bro Samson talkin as he grinds d bread with his teeth "instead of you to say "amin", u are still talking" "Emi na ti se amin sinu ni", Sis Debbie said, as she also puts a sliced bread in her mouth. "Mi o gbọ amin yen. Didnt u hear me when I was praying?" bro Samson said. "O da, Amin loruko Jesu fire!" Sis Debbie said. "Why did u add "fire", you want 2 set dis place on fire ni?" bro Samson asked. "Yes o. I want dis place 2 always be on fire of love. I want "mai" lord and I to always be on fire of love, anytime, anyday, anywhere", Debbie adds trying to drink water. "Alright. Fire of love. Love of fire...nay, nay, Fire of Love is it. And I see a farmer, clearing a virgin land, afta d clearing he sets d grasses on fire, afta which he made new ridges, in which he planted d seeds. "Which seeds are these?" I heard someone asking. "They are d seeds of love, dat will produce fruits of love. Afta a While d seeds germinated & started growing, d farmer paid attention to d planted seeds, weeding out other plants beside it, those weeded out plants were what will make d plants malnourished while fighting with d plants 4 d nutrients in d soil..."bro Samson has stopped eating now, fixing his gaze on his love-sister Debbie-who by now is resting her back on a chair opposite bro Samson as dey continue 2 eat, she, Debbie was also looking at her love & gem, obviouly in love, obviously admiringly, smiling, "in love I love u, in your love you will find me", Debbie thought within her...as she continued to listen to his love and lord "...the farmer said, "those weeded out plants are doubts, inexpression, anger, bitterness, bickerings, not-open to each other, insincerity, communication gaps etc" These are d weeds dat could hamper & prevent the development and growth of those seeds of love and ultimately leadin to non-productiveness of the plant and ofcourse making the farmer's labour to be in vain..."When dis plant started bringing forth fruits, it brings them forth in hundreths..bringing forth money 2 d farmer, as well as nourishin the souls and bodies of those who ate it...Everyone who eats out of this fruit of love asks for more, because love is like honey, which when any1 tastes will ask for more; love is like energy drink, which keeps one active and alert; love is like fire, which when ignited consumes the lovers hearts and flesh; love is like deodorant, which when put on smells nice; love is like air, which living things cannot do without; love is like rail, that is specially designed for a particular transport; love is like cloth that covers man's nakedness;...uhm! As fire does not have reservation for its igniter, so does love have not respect for its igniter, "ani", so does love have no respect for any, for as it consumes the hearts of younger ones in love, so does it consume the hearts of the elderlies in love...LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! By love we live, by Love we have our being...As we, Debbie and Samson continued in love, we will be refreshed daily, becoming younger than our ages...Fire of love! May it not be put out from amongst us in Jesus name. Amen" "Amen". I have always suggested that you become an actor but u are yet to consider my suggestion" Sista Debbie said.. "Uhm!" Easting the bread again...gulping down water..."and how will you feel seeing me romancing somebody else in the movie or on stage "jare""? Bro Samson asked. "Indifferent" Debbie replied. "Indifferent? Really?" Bro Samson asked. "Yeah, Yeah. Thus is bc I know its your profession" Debbie said. "It is easier said than believe. Orisa je ki npe meji obinrin awon agbalagba wipe kosi", said bro Samson. "Se orisa jen pe meji okunrin na wa ni?" Sista Debbie replied. "I cannot answer that", bro Samson said. "You cannot answer because u know there is none", she said, "Your proposal is good. I have read thru it. I will submit it to the management for scrutiny", bro Samson said, "That will be better. That is good of you. I do not wish to see a star rot away in the closest", Debbie said. "May God bring us to the limelight in Jesus name...and may our glories come out of its hidden closets in Jesus name". Bro Samson prayed. "Amin re po." Sista Debbie replied. "Ejowo gbogbo eleyi ti A n so dun, nje ji wa ni a fe je bayi?" bro Samson asked. "But, sebi e ni e ti jeun lekan ni?" Sis Debbie asked. "Do u xpect me 2 have eaten?" Bro Samson asked. "I would not know", She replied. "O dara. Emi o ti jeun o. I was waiting 4 your return until i slept off where u find me", bro Samson replied. "Mo ro wipe e ti jeun ni o...okay. What do u want to eat?" sis Debbie asked, clearing d table. "Delicious meal. Because I want to look robust, younger and fresher before you leave 4 schl again", bro Samson said. "Even if I resume, dont I come home 4thnightly?" sis Debbie asked. "Yeah you do, but dats different 4m when u r around me now, it is much more different 4m when we are seeing ourselves regularly" bro Samson said. "Dont tell me dat u are already "missing" me...dat's why I said let us solemnize everythin b4 now, but u said nay, nay, e o ma mu mora ni o", sista Debbie said. "It is for our future. Se iwo na o ti ma "miss" mi ni?" Bro Samson asked. "I miss u daily. Particularly when u aint by me, when I get home @ night I always pray that d hours be fast-forwarded so dat d day breaks quickly so dat we see, so my missing u is an independent integer from my moving to school" she enthused. "Ironically the hours must be fully expended b4 d day breaks forth. And I think the "missings" is an assorted relationship", bro Samson said "Eyin le mo. Whether assorted or independent, "missing" na missing", Sis Debbie replied. "Worry less love, ohun to ntan ni eegun odun. Everything will soon be coupled" bro Samson said. "I pray it be soonest in Jesus name." Sis Debbie prayed "Amen" bro Samson replied as sister Debbie clears the table, takes the used utencils to the kitchen and so as to start the cooking..
