I love these two for various reasons.

First, the restaurant owner has blackout sleeve tattoos.

Beyond that being sexy *bites knuckles*, it's also gangsta.

Which is why he was guarding the entry to his establishment, and only let Qian in but not his schoolmates.

This is also why meeting there bothered Xiong so much.

Because this is a gangsta's restaurant.

Yet later on, we know Xiong frequently visits the restaurant on his own accord, but even more importantly, that he is allowed to visit. It's now a mutual respect.

And this is a gangsta's clinic.

They are NOT a front for gang activity (probably, most likely, maybe?), but a majority of the clientele are gangstas.

Which means these places serve the community and as a safe space for gangstas because they need to trust that the people who make their food and stitch them up won't snitch or try to kill them.

Which is why Zu Guan knew Le Ge was back, and it's why Le Ge was at the restaurant and not his office. He needs to make his presence known, but also, it's a sign of respect to visit the people who held it down while he has been away.

Le Ge knows that Qian doesn't trust him, but there is a level of respect and honor among gangstas, which is why Le Ge trusted the restaurant owner to keep his gun, and it's why the owner was ready to leave it all behind to go with Le Ge knowing full well what Le Ge was planning.

Because he knows that life.

It's also why Le Ge made sure everyone got their shot including himself.

Le Ge stated he doesn't deal drugs, so he probably is in money laundering and reinforcement by offering protection and collection for a fee.

And Qian owes him.

Le Ge gave Qian a legit job, then when Qian needed more money, Le Ge gave him a less legit job. Le Ge not only gave Yuan his name but the official documents to go with that name. Le Ge's clinic fixed Qian and his family up for a nominal fee. Le Ge's restaurant gave Qian the privacy to do business without prying ears. And, yeah, Qian could've died trying to get out, but Le Ge isn't asking anything of anyone else that he, himself, wouldn't do.

And as much as Qian doesn't like or trust Le Ge, he respects him.

Because Le Ge is a man of his word. He doesn't blame others. He takes responsibility. And he keeps his promises.

That's why, unlike A Hu who sees Yuan as Qian's weakness and uses Yuan again to get to Qian, Le Ge understands that Yuan is Qian's strength. It's why he got upset that A Hu took Yuan the first time, and it's why he is pissed when he sees the video A Hu sent him.

When Qian told Yuan he could come home, we understood that Qian was "home" for Yuan. And we understand that Qian's entire life is his family. So Le Ge knows Qian will fight harder for Yuan. Le Ge knows Qian will kill for Yuan. And Le Ge knows Qian would die for Yuan because Qian's life is nothing to him without his family.

Which is why he reminds A Hu that his leg is the way it is NOT because of Qian, but because A Hu underestimated Qian. Le Ge tells A Hu he must take responsibility for his choices and his life.

Because Qian has always taken responsibility for his life.

I'll pay you back. Everything I owe you.

Because his entire life is his family.

Everything I own is yours whether you want it or not

And Le Ge gave him that.

Qian is Yuan's entire life, from beginning to end.

I can sum up my life with two words, Wei Qian

And Le Ge gave them that life love.

I’ve been looking at my glass half empty but atleast I’m doing positive things about it ?

[jackinalex]

Despite not even extensively thinking about them much for a couple weeks, Alex and Jack invaded my dreams last night anyway to sing something together. It was Monsters, which wouldn't be my first choice when awake, but it was a dream after all. Good to know they're lodged so deep in my psyche that I can't escape them subconsciously. Not that I'm complaining either lmao.

I have this au living in my brain where Jack does the rap and the little screams at the end of monsters because he’s the screamer for the band, so I approve this message.

➕Progress update on two full sleeve blackout projects I’ve had the pleasure of making for this incredibly strong human! We’ve got a way to go still on this arm, but it’s really coming together! She came in with some existing work from other artists and we also added some new botanicals, lemon, Cacao, pineapple plant, and drew on the swirls and patterns. We evened out the shoulder caps yesterday, the other arm is fully healed. ➕Thank you always for your trust and for choosing to work with me on such an intense modification journey 🙏🏼🖤 I love making blackouts, I love layering tattoos and creating art with clients and friends who are willing to explore untraditional ideas! Aka More blackouts please!🖤 • • • #tattoo #tattoos #blackout #blackwork #blackouttattoo #botanicals #botanicalart #panteraink #bishoprotary #blackclaw #sleeve #fullsleeve #fullsleevetattoos #tattooideas #tattooart #tattooartist #travel #travelingtattooer #hadesinquisition (at Hades Inquisition2) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoxLWIdrA1D/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
