a barstool

“So I called and told them that we couldn’t possibly do that,” Bess says. “I have to draw a line somewhere.” 

“Mhm, right,” Nancy nods, only half listening. Her eyes are fixed on Kate, watching her little feet swing freely below from the barstool, occasionally kicking into the scuffed wood of the bar. Ace is standing next to her, a hand on her back, making sure she doesn’t fall, while his other is tracing along the bar top, weaving stories from the memories the five of them had carefully laid under glass all those years ago. 

“Of course, they didn’t take kindly to that, so I—” Bess cuts herself off, realizing Nancy’s mind is nowhere near this conversation. “It’s a bit weird, isn’t it?”

The shift in tone pulls Nancy’s eyes back to Bess. “What is?”

The Story of Pearl Girl (ep. 18)

An episode we've all been absolutely not waiting for, but here we are. It was as gut-wrenching and hit-you-in-the-face-punching as I expected it to be, but it still hurt. Like yeah, I know it's a cdrama and this type of not-really-plot-twist was inevitable, but you can never not hope for something different.

The plot is surprisingly consistent. Having almost lost Duan Wu to the bandits, Yan Zijing makes the only sane decision a man could make in this situation. No, not ditch the whole vengeance thing, that would have been too perfect and totally out of his character.

Although, I do hope he gets his epiphany at some point and decides there are better things to do in life than that. But he decides to leave Duan Wu behind using the good 'ol drug-your-drink stunt. Alas, it was too late, and the bad guys came to meet him, instead of waiting for him patiently in their bandit's den.

It seems that someone in the higher circles of power is in cahoots with the baddies - the army that was supposed to help YZJ in his mission got stopped last minute and the 2ML had to venture into the wild leading just a group of General's guards, who may or may not have been plenty. What a coincidence, huh?

The bandits infiltrated Yan Zijin's convoy (somehow, we don't know the details, our boy obviously didn't do a good enough screening procedure while hiring his people). Either this or they'd been following him around for years in his convoy - in that case, I have questions for the Big Bad Boss. Long-distance relationships rarely work out (but in this case, from his point of view, they kinda sorta did). YZJ did end up coming back to the desert and it didn't end well for him.

I'm not revealing too many spoilers, but it's a sad-sad episode, so you should brace yourselves for a heart-aching evening if you're planning to watch it now.

In terms of visuals, it's still stunning and the fighting sequences are all quite believable.

Duan Wu got kidnapped for a moment there, but the whole thing wasn't too dramatic. I don't know if it was supposed to be like that but it felt more like a means to the end - something that would make YZJ decide to leave her behind.

I can't really blame the guy. She's a fighter, but not an exceptional one. And his mission turned out to be deadlier than everyone thought.

YZJ is a mix of gentleness toward his girl and revenge finally being served (at least partly). Liu Yuning fits this character remarkably well. Going from soft to stabby in a matter of seconds.

Of course, she doesn't know ALL the bad news. The Big Bad Boss is vicious enough not to kill YZJ directly, but to take away all hope of him getting better (because POISON, yes, good old, good old).

The show finally remembered it is, indeed, dark and gritty, and the memories of cute fluff were devoured by smoke and fire.

We also got a glimpse into Kang Ju and Yan Zijing's past when they were running away from the bandits - the boys had it rough. And they're having it rough once again.

On a brighter note, Zhang Jinran looks a tad bit funny in this armor XD That's probably the only positive thing that can be said about this episode. Oh, and kudos to him for leaving Duanwu's girlie friend behind. That desert is too deadly for pretty ladies.

The moment we've all been waiting for 😍

[deadgirlwalking91]

Wait there's gonna be a sequel?!

Hey Anon,

Yep! Coincidentally I actually came up with the title only like an hour ago on my drive to work, but the first four chapters are all planned out!

I am beyond excited to share more info when the time is right ❤️ but for now all I can say is that this is going to be jam-packed and a total emotional rollercoaster.

[cameronspecial]

I'm working on the second part to The First Son and The First Spare, but I needed to take a break from it because I was inspired to write another angst fic. I just wanted to give you guys a very far-in-advance warning bc I have a feeling it's going to be very angsty based on the fact that I already want to cry while I'm planning it out.

Legends | Chapter 26

Green, blue and white.

Those were the three colors Armin saw as his eyes cracked open. They were dots, blurred, overlapped dots; he couldn’t make anything out of them.

He closed his eyes and tried to compensate sight with hearing. Water gurgling and birds chirping was all he could hear. He tried to move his arms; one arm stirred, while the other shot pain through his shoulders. Armin didn’t even have enough energy to hiss.

He moved his fingers, and he felt the harsh particles of dirt, or was it the texture of mud?

Armin waited patiently, focusing on his breathing, taking deep breaths in, and letting them out, then he opened his eyes again. After several blinks, he saw leaves rustling above his head, the blue sky creeping between them, and the clouds sheltering him from the sun.

A groan left Armin’s mouth, nausea suddenly swathed over him, the sky, the leaves and the clouds blending into the previous blurry dots.

He heard footsteps before someone called, “Armin? Armin?”

Annie…
