"We were gonna make some plush dolls together.

I was thinking about doing a bunny and he was thinking bout doing a snake cause it was easier.

And we were gonna have them be friends."

The tragedy of Moon

⚠️ this post contains episode 4 spoilers⚠️

Xiao yuequing or better known as moon is a character that symbolises how no one can truly escape the trust system.

From the beginning, moon was characterised as someone who loved and desired freedom yet had her life dictatected by the system in every possible way known to man. Moon is someone who would go to extreme lengths to achieve her freedom even if it meant that she had to resort to suicide to have it, she would. We, as the audience, see how that desire comes back to bite her in the back, causing her death and causing her to be stranded in an abandoned island all alone.

Her desire for something so basic causes her the worst endings of all, and I find that quite tragic about her character.

It is through moon that we are first introduced to just how oppressive the trust system can be. Moon tells us that Nice's abilities caused him to prioritise perfection at all costs, and we see that the trust system also strips Moon of her own autonomy and agency. A girl who simply started out working as a travel blogger wishing to let everyone see every corner of the world with her then becomes a hero fated to stick with a man whom she doesn't like an accessory for the rest of her life.

Unlike wreck and OG Nice, Moon's hero story or her reasons for being a travel blogger and then becoming a hero aren't based on love or wanting to protect people but they are based on the belief and idea that this is simply a job and that she is doing what her superiors are demanding of her so she can achieve her desires. However, this job and duty come to actively destory who she is to the point where she as a character after being given freedom that she longed for didn't know what she truly wanted and simply wanted time to figure out what she would do moving on from here.

Moon is a great actor, and overall, she is great at her job, but it comes at the cost of it taking over every aspect of her life that it drives her to near insanity. 3 years of being an accessory, 3 years of having to be perfect, 3 years of hell where she lost herself and even more years lost to a contract she has abide by. The chance to escape is one that she longs and strives for, even faking her own death in episode 1, ending to receive it.

Moon manages to give a really important message to Lin Ling, and that is to be himself and choose not what the corporation wants of him but what his heart desires and if he is willing to risk everything for it like she did.

Xiao yuequing also holds a lot of symbolism in her name as its a name that directly translates to 'small moon' a reference to her hero name Moon. The moon symbolises beauty, serenity, and an illumination of hope, which are characteristics that Moon does have, especially in the eyes of Lin Ling. He has constantly viewed her as an idol and later love that he could never reach. His love for her allowed him to find a way to free her and to act as a mirror of hope for her. While moon shows and warns lin ling of the costs of being a hero, Lin Ling is able to show Moon the freedom of being a regular person and what it feels like to be a person making memories with a loved one and not an accessory to some corporations perfect hero image.

In the end, Moon death is one that has been foreshadowed in the series and one that hits hard for the audience as we also have developed an emotional connection to her. The girl who desired and would do anything for freedom even if it meant accepting the fate of living alone in an island killed right after she willingly chooses to go back with the person she cares for. A system that forcefully puppeted her with no way out using another puppet to end her life and on the beach as the waves come up and down. I feel like there is something symbolic about the moon being killed on the beach, a place where it should have control since the moon controls the tides.

Ruin: Have you tried asking Moon? He eats anything.

Solar: Thing is…I kinda saw your favorite spoon in the sink when I found the empty pudding cup.

Ruin: …

Solar: You ate my pudding cup, didn’t you?

Ruin: No, I didn’t!

Solar: See, now I KNOW you’re lying to me now.

Ruin: I wouldn’t eat something of yours!!

Solar: Just stop denying it!

Ruin: Oh, like how you denied drinking my frozen water??

Solar: First off, it’s called ice. Get it right. Second, that could’ve been Sun! He munches on ice a lot!!

Good fucking soup Nexus seeing that Earth still cares about him enough to respect his privacy regarding their sessions, going quiet before trying his best to relate to her and comparing their situations. Yeah you messed up still Earth, but he sees now that she could have done everything right and nothing would have changed because the rest of the family is still a problem, they would drop you just like they did to Nexus so why don't you join him? Nexus clearly still cares and is desperate to have some family back with how he jumped on that opportunity, that little bit of hope that she cares about him, for Earth to join his side.

And god Earth saying she never actually disowned Nexus but felt like he disowned her? Yet here Nexus is calling her sister still and wanting to check up on her and Lunar? It's just like my Nexus AU the fucking miscommunication and misunderstanding where they each thought the other stopped caring first thus pretended they didn't either when they very much do. But it's too late to fix things with a single conversation and heart to heart.

LATEST LAES EPISODE. THOUGHTS.

MY THOUGHTS ARE THAT I'M SO HAPPYYYYYYY

Besides the fact that I am just insane for any and all Eclipse n Lunar interactions, everything that they talked about today was HUGE!!!!! Lunar took Eclipse's taunts and insults in stride, understood Eclipse, apologized for blowing him up, AND got him to talk about some of his fun hypocritical thought process!! THAT'S SO COOL!!!!!!

I won't lie I genuinely didn't process how big of a deal some of these were (like Lunar saying they betrayed Eclipse's trust) because its just something I've been so accustomed to for months already so they didn't even strike me as significant the first time around BUT I READ A FEW OTHER PPLS THOUGHTS AND I GET IT NOW GEJAGAJAHS

Lunar standing up to Eclipse like this is just, AUGH. So good. If you told Lunar in the first few months of their existence that they would ever get to this point I don't think they'd believe it.

Eclipse as a whole too,,, what is WRONG with him(/aff). From the fact that he doesn't have all of his memories anymore to his whole "I'm a clone and a copy of the original but I'm still better than everyone" thing to his little plan he's working on in secret, he is just so intriguing. ALSO???? HIS HIS OMG HIS LINE ABOUT HOW HE WAS PROUD WHEN LUNAR ELECTROCUTED HIM BECAUSE THEY "FINALLY GOT IT" WAS SO. AUAUAGHAGAHAHHAAAAAA I'M GOING INSANE. I'VE ALREADY RAMBLED SO MUCH SO TLDR; I LOVEEEEEDDDD TODAYS TLAES EP IT HAS SO MUCH JUICY SHIT <3<3<3<3<3
