Huang Junjie Bromances

Zhe Yan (Chen Chuhe) and Bai Zhen (Huang Junjie) from Eternal Love of Dream.

I have not seen this show but from what I've read about it, these two characters goals in life is basically to hang out with each other and drink wine. I dunno about you but that feels a bit gay to me xD

Zhang Qiling (Huang Junjie) and Wu Xie (Zhu Yilong) from Reunion Sound of the Providence.

Do I even need to say anything. The people who know Pingxie will understand me

Lin Quishi (Huang Junjie) and Ruan Nanzhu (Xia Zhiguang) from The Spirealm.

So many heart eyes. Pulled from the site after two hours and it's kinda clear why. The sparks were flying!

Canonicals Tournament Round 1, Match 7

Match 7 is between Bai Haotian from Reunion: The Sound of the Providence (shizun/mentor: Wu Xie) and Rong Hao from Love Between Fairy and Devil (shizun: Chi Di Nu Zi)

Propaganda under the cut! (Warning: Propaganda may include spoilers about the characters and their media)

Bai Haotian:

Bai Haotian -- Little Bai -- is introduced as a supervisor in the mysterious Warehouse 11 which the protagonist, Wu Xie, is trying to infiltrate. She's tiny, she's chipper, She's A Fan, she has a slightly girlier version of Wu Xie's haircut and Absolutely No Chill. What follows is an interestingly asymmetrical relationship where he is canny, resourceful, indomitable, and she knows so much more than she's telling -- youth, expertise, and adoration in a tiny gamine package. When they are fired from Warehouse 11 she becomes his student in scurrilous antique-dealing and 'how to point the knife away from you when there's danger'. (She's young. She's picking things up as she goes.)

She flirts with Wu Xie throughout (he is politely discouraging and occasionally flustered) and the platonic affection and mutual protectiveness is so strong I could cut it with a butter knife.

Rong Hao:

This guy tried so hard to destroy three realms and murdered so many people so that his shizun could be alive and well.

Xiao bai: Are you this rude to everyone?!

Xiao Hua: Yes. Don't think you're special.

i have finished reboot & i am sad

it's bittersweet—i mean, it was time to be finished with it; i've been watching it literally over the course of the pandemic. but enough! all things must end, even the arduously dragged-out conclusion of a whacked-out chinese tomb raiding drama featuring poisonous gas, hordes of insects, zombies, hand crabs, flying carnivorous clams, and "coffin dew," which like all the rest of those things does not exist. ruminations and pictures and spoilers behind the cut!

1. so why is this xie yuchen the most boring xie yuchen out of all of them? i don't even know this actor's name because i never bothered learning it. also when the hell did he become a doctor and do sketchy operations on people without anaesthesia? he's wearing pink, he's rich, he has the same name; but there the resemblance ends. this is not the xiao hua we know and love. where is my bitchy swishy opera-singing organized crime boss? no wonder there's no chemistry between him and xiazi; this guy barely has a pulse. sorry to this man. nice sweater, tho.

2. i was trying to prove that pangzi says "that's not your xiaoge" (which he doesn't, those are bad subtitles; he just says "that's not xiaoge") and instead captured this adorable picture of drunk bai haotian. xiao bai gets a bad rap—mao xiaotong is adorable and sweet and honestly kinda hot when she's not trapped in a bowl haircut and overalls. i appreciate that wu xie, busily dying of lungs, doesn't have time or patience to explain to her why he's not available, but zhu yilong plays it wisely straight down the middle, face impassive. ship it or don't, he seems to be saying; i don't care, it's not up to me anyway—the viewer can read it however they want. (but wu xie does manhandle her on more than one occasion and that's also kinda hot.)

3. admittedly liu sang is very very pretty but i still don't want him in my pingxie, like mint in my chocolate chip ice cream. no thank you please. i have always considered myself a multishipper, a live-and-let-live fan; but this fandom has taught me i'm monogamous and i guess there's nothing i can do about that. still. look at liu chang's beautiful features. he made me care about jinx beyond just his function as a whump magnet, and that's an achievement. someday maybe his ouxiang will give him the hug he deserves.

4. speaking of beautiful just look at these total idiots. i'm going to miss their stupid faces. xiaoge drinking water, so he can be sober enough to take his drunk husband home and put him to bed. wu xie so plastered that i have inadvertently captured the one (1) image of the most beautiful man in the world making a derp face.

BONUS: whatever this beautiful cranky bitchy "doctor" has going on. which definitely involves feelings he still has for wu xie, after what happened in germany. (you know what happened in germany.)

and that's it, that's a wrap. in the meantime zhu yilong has been in cannes being absolutely heart-stoppingly fucking divine, and i will bet you a hundred flying carnivorous clams that the next time he's there, his film will be in competition. the condé nast cover story didn't hurt. with each entrée he cements his reputation and, more importantly, protects himself from the increasingly nasty sweeps of china "cleaning up" c-ent. i honestly don't know what there is to clean up anymore; there's almost nothing left. immortality and the live-action of tgcf not being released; justice in the dark just abandoned not even halfway through. this doesn't end well.

at least as far as lost tomb goes, though, i've decided i'm proceeding backwards—so next i'm watching sand sea/sha hai, because i want to spend time with mob widow wu xie (qin hao has won me over via gifset) and ji chen's xiazi. until then, pouring one out for li jiale and chuchu. and wu erjing i guess. 干杯!
