Granting You A Dreamlike Life | Xu Ni Fusheng Ruomeng |  许你浮生若梦, Ep 02

If someone has a heterosexual explanation for this, I would love to hear it. (1/?)

So... I am trying, with all my might, NOT to turn into a Zhu Yilong blog over here, but THERE ARE DAYS WHEN IT’S A BIT MORE DIFFICULT THAN OTHERS.

OK, so I realize that I have watched exactly 4 and half episodes of this show and that it devolves into a really nasty love triangle, which I generally hate, BUT... these early episodes are feeding me plot bunnies like you wouldn’t believe, and I hear there is some AMAZING Luo Fusheng whump heading my way in later episodes, so I’M GONNA HANG IN AS LONG AS I CAN.  XD

So, yeah.  I gather from AO3 and tumblr that I’m out here on this little rowboat all by myself, but I’m going to end up rowing my way straight into writing a fic at this rate.  At the VERY least, there will be more gifsets.  Because these two are ridiculous.  Like... five minutes after this point, Xu Xingcheng is feeding Luo Fusheng and groping him while they’re on a motorcycle, and Luo Fusheng says to him: “In the whole of Dongjiang, the only person who can order me around, I'm afraid, you are the only one.”  And then, that night, they share a bed and wake up in a tangle of cuddling arms and legs.  Just... HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO NOT READ INTO THAT?

OK, I’m fine.  I’ll stop.  But... yeah.  I may end up writing that fic.  Just... diverge from canon in like... episode 3 or something.  IDEK.  It’ll probably end in a threesome.  Because I have thoughts in that direction, too.  XD

But yeah, this scene SERIOUSLY read to me like a teasing fight over who was going to get to be on top that night, and I cannot imagine any other interpretation that makes more sense.  XD

Granting You A Dreamlike Life | Xu Ni Fu Sheng Ruo Meng  |  许你浮生若梦, Ep 02, The Motorcycle Scene (2/2)

If someone has a heterosexual explanation for this, I would love to hear it. (3/?)

My favorites:

And because there’s still SO MUCH going on here... behind a cut we go for more meta and silliness.  ;D

OK, so two of my favorite character moments came out of this half of this scene:

1) Luo Fusheng straight up telling Xu Xingcheng, “The only person who can order me around is you.”  And that plays SO HARD into my fealty kink, I can’t even tell you.  You have super badass, dangerous Luo Fusheng, who once took down 100 MEN BY HIMSELF IN UNDER AN HOUR and he straight up tells his soft, sensitive doctor friend that no one else can order him around but him.  I straight up MELTED, OK?  And then two seconds later, HE PROVES IT. 

“Let me feed you,” XXC says.  “I’m not eating,” LFS responds. XXC: *shoves dumpling into LFS’s face* LFS: *eye roll*  *sigh* Fiiiiiine.  If you want to feed me that badly...  *eats dumpling*

TOO CUTE.  XD

The other half of that character moment is Xu Xingcheng who is SO EXCITED by the dumplings; he’s so happy; and he’s lit up like a Christmas tree to get to eat the dumplings... and he STILL gives the first one to Luo Fusheng.  And I’m just... *clenches fist*  *wobble eyes* ...COME ON.

2) I am now CONVINCED that of these two... it’s not the soft, sensitive doctor who’s the romantic in this relationship.

I’LL EXPLAIN.

So, which actions did XXC initiate in this scene?  Feeling up his friend, for one thing.  “I finally caught this amazing specimen, MUST TOUCH.”  And for another thing (I’m sorry, but I have to go here...) STUFFING SOMETHING INTO SAID FRIEND’S MOUTH AT THE FIRST AVAILABLE OPPORTUNITY.  And I mean... you don’t have to be Freud to read into THAT one.  XD

And now for contrast... Luo Fusheng.  Who fought a potentially VERY embarrassing battle in the last episode to secure his friend's favorite food for him so he can eat them soon after he arrives, when he’ll no doubt be starving.  Who knows his friend well enough to know that he’ll be fretting over having forgotten himself while overseas and not only provides verbal reassurance, but an immediate concrete reminder of who he is, so he won’t have to worry for long about having forgotten.  And then the coup de grace of DECLARING HIS UNDYING AND UNSWERVING LOYALTY.

Just... Luo Fusheng IS the sappy romantic in this relationship and that IS a hill I will die on, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.  XD

Ok, one more for the night, then I promise I'll stop. XD

So... Lin-da-ge is watching these two idiots on the motorcycle and wondering about broken sleeves... CUT SLEEVES, MAYBE?

I guess I'm not the only one who thinks there is no possible heterosexual explanation for half the shit they do. XD

Also... Kaidilak? XD

ETA: OH. OH, I MESSED UP. I READ THAT WRONG. IT'S NOT LIN-DAGE WHO'S WONDERING ABOUT CUTSLEEVES. IT'S HONG LAN. XD

I have no idea why that makes it even better, but it DOES. XD

And Lin-dage's response to her saying "isn't that kinda gay?" isn't "...no." it's "...WHICH ONE ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT?" I CAN'T, YOU GUYS. I JUST CAN'T. XD

From the dumpling motorcycle fight:

Favorite bits?

"He raised his mouth and made a fancy motorcycle skill."

and

"Suddenly! A nausea!"

...I have no idea why that last one is so funny to me, BUT IT IS. XD
