大梦归离 fangs of fortune names + titles masterpost

brought to you by @mengyan and @renshengs <3

*note: this is only for what we consider as main characters, or recurring side characters! if you need clarification for a character that isn't here, send either of us an ask!

common terminology:

daren 大人 (suffix) — gender-neutral honorific often translated as Mr. or Ms. (e.g. Pei-daren = Ms. Pei)

xiao 小 (prefix) — little (e.g. Xiao-Jiu = Little Jiu)

jie/jiejie 姐姐 (suffix) — older sister (e.g. Wen-jiejie)

ge/gege 哥哥 (suffix) — older brother (e.g. Xiao-Zhuo-ge)

didi 弟弟 (suffix) — younger brother (e.g. Bai Jiu-didi) 

“A-” 阿 (prefix) — added before a single character of someone’s name/address, to indicate affection, familiarity, closeness etc (e.g. A-Heng, A-jie)

“er” �� (suffix) — added after a single character of someone’s name & is an affectionate term used by someone (often older) whose relationship to them involves some kind of caregiving; can be romantic or platonic (e.g. Wen Xiao’s foster father calling her Xiao’er)

common mistakes:

referring to someone with only one character—in chinese this is generally considered odd (e.g. Zhuo Yichen as “Zhuo”) and is not recommended unless done in-story (e.g. 蜚 Fei’s name just being Fei).

referring to a character by only their surname (e.g. Pei Sijing as “Pei”). chinese names put surnames before given names. (to call her by just her given name, use “Sijing”.)

referring to a character with a 2-character name by only their given name (e.g. Bai Jiu as “Jiu”). since his given name is only 1 character, it can’t be used on its own. using just the given name generally only works with 3-character names (e.g. Zhao Yuanzhou can be referred to as just “Yuanzhou”).

NOTE 1: calling a character by their given name usually implies closeness and informality. generally it is more common among chinese-speakers to use each other’s full names or their surnames combined with a title.

NOTE 2: to call a character by their surname or 1-character given name, you add on a prefix or suffix (e.g. Xiao-Zhuo or Xiao-Chen with Zhuo Yichen, Wen-jiejie or Xiao-jie with Wen Xiao)

NOTE 3: jiejie, gege, didi, (+meimei, what Wen Xiao called E’shou) are not just addresses exclusive to those of blood/familial relation! they can be used to address anyone younger/older than you and also be used in a flirtatious manner (e.g. Wen Xiao’s “Pei-jiejie” is very different from Bai Jiu’s “Pei-jiejie”)!

Romance of a Twin Flower is out. I'm in it for Ding but, I dislike memory loss. If it's done like My Uncanny Destiny then I'll be able to finish it.

New favorite song of the moment: Fangs of Fortune's Unintentional Big Dream. This is just too good.

Here, have Peachey Blossom's subtitled version too (where would I be without their subtitled music video of Chinese cdrama songs)

I mean.

Yes please.

More of this. Thank you.

It turns out to be a water demon. There are many kinds of water demons. Dragon, fish, black turtle, merfolk. Can you narrow it down a bit? It's ugly.

Nirvana in Fire Rewatch Episode Eight

Events:

MCS is attacked in the street to test his defences; later, a large group attack his rooms. Jingrui helps fight them off and discovers they were his father's men.

The Minister of Revenue, Lou Zhijing, approaches the CP to confess he is responsible for some of the bodies in the well.

MCS has bought another house, which backs onto Jingyan's.

Shisan-xiansheng visits MCS.

Banruo visits the magistrate to encourage him to hand the whole case over to the Ministry of Justice asap.

Names and titles:

Ministers speaking to the CP use the personal pronoun ‘weichen’.

Minister Lou’s title is shangshu. He’s a second-rank minister.

Xie Yu addresses the CP as just dianxia, not taizu dianxia.

MCS calls Meng Zhi da-shu to Fei Liu.

Jingrui calls Li Gang ‘helmsmaster’ – huh? I checked, that’s the literal translation.

Shisan-xiansheng calls MCS xiao-zhuren (little master) and MCS calls him Shisan-shu.

Costumes and weapons

Everyone's wearing fur now.

Characters

MCS can’t fight, but he’s not as helpless in a swordfight as I would be.

The CP repeatedly calls Minister Lou careless – that’s his sole condemnation.

Xie Yu thinks the Emperor won’t care about the crime if it’s couched in terms of the princes’ conflict. That’s horribly telling.

The secret tunnel was Meng Zhi’s idea! He found the house and planned the tunnel on his own.

Banruo does massage for Prince Yu.

Banruo and Prince Yu are discussing MCS’s motives for his actions so far, and it doesn’t occur to them he might be motivated by justice for the victims in each case.

Xie Yu used his own guards to attack MCS, not just Tianquan. A sign of manpower limitations?

Shisan-xiansheng knew MCS’s mother. He hasn’t seen MCS since he was Lin Shu.

Banruo has 15 wives or concubines of ministers on her string.

Gong Yu has infiltrated Banruo’s operation, so she must be good at spy stuff, but all we see her doing is moon over MCS.

There are a lot of new names in this episode. Lou Zhijing = Minister of Revenue, CP’s party, was involved in the murders at Orchid House. Gao Sheng = Magistrate, in charge of Orchid House case, neutral. Zhang Jin = former owner of Orchid House, deceased. Shi Jun = his housekeeper, sent to magistrate by Prince Yu.

Time

The guy who owned Orchid Court died 4 years ago. The parties where women were killed were 7 or 8 years ago.

Places

Does MCS still own Orchid Court? Did he sell it back? Was it acquired as evidence?

Misc

Government ministers aren’t allowed to visit brothels. Therefore select little unofficial brothels exist to cater to them.
