Butterflied Lover: Ep 1-2

notes: Spoilers! Master list of all recaps

You know, communication is so important in a marriage. If you're a demonic poison butterfly with a thirst for human blood, you owe it to your partner to be honest and disclose that sort of thing. It's basic respect, people! 

.

It’s another bright sunny morning for Tang Qianyue. 

She owns a successful rouge shop and has a doting husband- the very handsome military general Ling Changfeng.

marry me

But Tang Qianyue has a secret. She may not be as human as she first appears. 

Well, Ling Changfeng, that's what you get when you marry the only survivor of a village that was slaughtered by the evil, poison-loving Butterfly Clan. C'mon guy, didn't you ever see Painted Skin?

Tang Qianyue and her husband go out to enjoy the lantern festival but their date night is ruined by the murderous Butterfly Clan who have disguised themselves as the Hua Cheng Dancers, right down to the silver butterfly masks, bells and red umbrellas. 

In the ensuing fracas, Tang Qianyue is attacked (or is she?) and when Ling Chanfeng comes to her rescue she helps herself to his jugular. Ouch!

But it turns out that was all just a bad dream... or was it?

suspicion intensifies (but where did the bite on his neck go?)

Who else is in this?

Wang Ruolin, whom you may remember as the world's worst sugar daddy Zhao Jing from Word of Honor.

Smile Hu as Si Xiaonian and Yang Ze as Yan Wuming from The Killer Is Also Romantic because they are reprising their roles! It's set in the same universe!

The Good

I already wrote a recap for The Killer Is Also Romantic and it's here.

This is great- spooky, atmospheric and the plot is really interesting so far.

The music is surprisingly good

The Bad

Episodes are only 20 min long and there are only 22 of them.

Final Note

I bet this will come up in couple’s counseling

didn't, uh. didn't think my 2024 would end by seriously considering making uhhhhhhhhhhh oc x sci fi keanu fucking reeves art

[papiermachete]

Since i watched the double a little over a month ago i got sucked into the world of chinese dramas … and realized a lot of the ones i was watching had many repeat actors/actresses. So i made a web showing the overlap i found between 10 different cdramas that i’ve watched. See if you can spot each show.

(Disclaimer: i made it in 1 hour sorry if there are any mistakes)

LOVE GAME IN EASTERN FANTASY POSTERS

My fave Big Four! I wished they didn't change the original name because having Black Lotus is the title is fitting for the story and it sounds way cooler than Love Game 😆

[danmeigirl]

Yep thats us ready to ship them in the end :P

Hello mx Lucky guy poster can you show me the sacred texts (please explain misty mountains lore I want to know more about it /nf!)

Im so sorry im about to fuck this up because these shitheads have so many points of view of what they BELIEVE to be the truth and im too stupid

SO. Ill try to get into the important bits. Im so so sorry in advance

August was in a field trip with his other club members, Fernan and Moebius, but unfortunately got stuck in the fog

Bai Ze and Master Yin Yang have already expected his arrival due to them being in a loop, though theyre the only ones who remember anything.

Bai Ze is protecting a scroll thats passed down in her family, and she also has this altar lamp, but Master Yin Yang is conspiring with the mirror demon to get it; in return he will help the mirror demon escape the mountain. This is through the mirror demon assuming August's identity

There were three rules Bai Ze set in place to keep August safe but he was stupid/lh So he broke all of them. During this he also meets Paddle, a rosewood paddle who is now a spirit, and Crane, the embodiment of a copper crane who used to be Censer's subordinate

There was this fucking Battle of Changchuan but i dont?? Understand it?? I only know that the people included were Bai Ze, Censer, Crane and this "Three-headed one" but i have no fucking idea who thats supposed to be. There was an arrow that couldve gotten Bai Ze but Paddle took the hit, so he's very fragile now.

August meets Censer, embodiment of a Boshan Censer, who is also conspiring with Master Yin Yang but he's being manipulated. He tells August the "truth" that Bai Ze has trapped them all in the mountain and he tells him to rip off these talismans or whatever before this Ghost Festival to strengthen him (???????)

August has also been sleepwalking, taking off talismans because of Master Yin Yang's bell, I believe? It can control people with the sound

He meets Cierge, who is not of sound mind!! She has these dreams that seem to "foresee the future," but in the end its speculated that its memories from past loops which made her turn insane...she tells August to get the altar lamp so both of them can leave but Crane is like?? HEY why do you want to leave with him but not ME!! I also want to leave to see the outside!!

Anyways its almost Ghost Festival time so Censer tells August to rip off the talismans already so he does! But then stops and goes "you a fake ass mf 😭😭" and throws the boshan censer into the water. Censer cant move his vessel in his current state, so he decides "if im going down youre going down with me!!!" and grabs August's hand to tear off a talisman

What a romantic 😍 Holding hands...

August is like!?!?!? BAI ZE STOP HIDING THE TALISMANS R GOING TO GET DESTROYED!! She comes out of hiding and overpowers Censer, who PUSHES AUGUST INTO THE FUCKING WATER. While Bai Ze rushes to save him, Censer rips off the last talisman. What happens to him? "Any non-human creature which tears off a talisman by force will turn into dust."

Theres two endings to this!!

August wakes up and finds out Paddle rescued him, but the spirit unfortunately perished. He's given the altar lamp to get out but the light slowly starts to dim and he sees Master Yin Yang again

He figures out that Bai Ze and Master Yin Yang knew more than they let on and that theyre in a loop, showing that he's smarter than people give him credit for. He finds out Fernan and Moebius arent his club members and that his full name is August Fernan Moebius.

Master Yin Yang picks up the altar lamp, deems this loop another failure, and we're back to the beginning! August is fortunately alive but still stuck in the loop

Now, the mirror demon ending is what you get if you dont raise affinity with Paddle. This time Crane is the one who rescues him and Paddle is still alive, and "August" figures out that he should leave before tomorrow night's Ghost Festival

"August" meets with Master Yin Yang and gives him the altar lamp, which can disperse the fog and guide him to this mountain cave that has?? Scrolls?? OR WHATEVER?? Then the mirror demon finally leaves as "August"

There was something about a mountain god that was being sealed, which could possibly be the reason behind the fog, but im not too sure about that....

Sorry, I went haywire and Im not able to explain properly further than this...you can see the quality go downhill...im so sorry..

If anyone can better explain or correct me if i said something wrong...please do..

Coco: Some girls are like Weiss, a total Virgo. The "get nervous if the glass is too close to the edge of the table" kind of girl.

Coco: And some girls are more like Yang, the "drink OJ right out of the carton and wear yesterday's underwear" kind of girl. Y'know, like a Sagittarius.

Blake: Mhm, and what about Ruby?

Ruby: (Walking through school in gothic red and black skirt with combat boots and cute animal cartoon characters in her hair, Stops and chugs thermos of super sweet coffee)

Coco: Ruby is her own damn sign of the Zodiac.

three post-canon headcanons for kiseki, go!

WHOAGH OKAY i wanted to keep this one until i was done with work and could put some serious brain power into it.

This is gonna be a sad one but I don't think Zhou Ming Lei lived for very long after leaving the family, probably 5-10 years or less. He looked so tired in the last episode and so worn down. I think they got married, maybe a year or so after they left the family, and after his death I don't think Chen Dong Yang moved on but I think he continued to live in the quiet, understated house that they had gradually turned into a cozy home together.

I fully believe the conversation in the car about death was Ai Di and Chen Yi's version of a proposal. I don't think either of them give a shit about a proper marriage, laws have never been something they've had much regard for anyway and they certainly don't need a piece of paper to show their love. What they have is forged in blood and acts of devotion and loyalty. I do think maybe one day, when his guilt has faded, Chen Yi asks for Zong Yi's help to make a cake for Ai Di to give him a proper ring, something with a unique design so any time Ai Di punches someone it leaves the imprint on their skin. (Ai Di fucking loves it.)

Zong Yi mentions at one point in the show that he is attending treatment for his memory loss. I believe with time it does get better, but not completely. Some things can only be healed so much. He has some particularly bad brain fog days, gets more easily frustrated on those days, and still has to reach for his notebook from time to time. He doesn't like to talk to Fan Ze Rui about it, doesn't like the way his face shutters with guilt. Maybe someday they each decide to go to therapy; either together or separately.

idk how accurate these are but they're just kinda thoughts i have floating in my head, i don't really get too attached to any headcanons bc they're really just that, silly little thoughts to try and spackle in some gaps, but i think they're entertaining to think about!
