My part of this delicious collab! Always a delight hehe <33

fulmination

pairing: edward nygma/jonathan crane

summary: during an argument with edward, jonathan finds himself tempted by the very worst parts of himself. (this piece of writing was a collaborated brainchild with the very skilled and utterly delightful @skxtchyghost)

The argument was familiar; two bitter men who staunchly refused to meet on common ground while maintaining an unwillingness to give an inch of their opinion made such disagreements a regular occurrence. Less regular, yet still a constant threat between them, was the violence which both men were willing to wield without care or consideration as they lashed out their frustrations.

Edward had been the first to succumb as Jonathan fell victim to his more volatile traits and struck out like a serpent, sinking his venom into Edward's thigh as he pressed down harshly on the plunger of his toxin-filled syringe and ignored the howl of outrage from his injured prey.

It had taken only a panicked minute before Edward dropped to his knees, his racing pulse only serving to spread the toxin quicker through his veins, and a harsh shove from Jonathan had sealed his fate as Edward found himself splayed on the cool carpet with Jonathan straddling his hips - pinning him to the floor and claiming inevitable victory.

Pleased with his win despite the anger which continued to sizzle across his heated skin, Jonathan grinned viciously as he stared down at Edward. His spindly hands moved with speed, darting to Edward's wrists to pin them roughly to the floor above his head.

"You lose, Eddie." Snarling the pet name with obvious mocking, Jonathan didn't miss the twitch of irritation that still managed to break through Edward's frightened expression as he fought to slow his breathing and fight off the encroaching toxin.

"Cheat." Edward hissed out from between clenched teeth. "Bastard! And a cheat!"

Adrenaline making his fingers tremble, Jonathan laughed at the accusation, a cruel noise which fluttered in the space between them, and tightened his grip until open discomfort flared across Edward's face. "Don't deflect, boy. We both know that you're the cheat and the one who owes all his meagre successes to others."

It was a lie, but a lie which had the desired effect as the words struck Edward like a open-palmed blow, sinking deep into his psyche to be absorbed alongside the toxin which was now visibly causing him to sweat as his breathing grew more laboured.

"No! No. No. N-no." A repeated mantra, one matched by the thrashing of Edward's head as his perfectly coiffed hair fell into ruin against the carpet. "Lying, always lying to wheedle me with your shit, Crane. It's all you know."

The dosage was on the lower side of things, not enough to truly spark hallucinations and terror, but certainly enough to make the weakened Edward more docile as he fought the wicked effects.

"I don't lie, not to you." Jonathan crooned. "We both know that you revel in truth and facts. Wordplay is a game for us and you cannot stand to be the loser. So you lie and you cheat to gain the upper hand, accusations which all stem from the same truth. A cheater..."

The heat of Edward's body pressed insitently against Jonathan's groin as he struggled and the sordid position wasn't lost on Jonathan - his mind flicking through recollections laced with sweat-slicked skin and the delightful fullness of Edward inside him as he viciously clawed red marks into his exposed, hair-flecked chest.

Even now, with Edward's wide, glassy green gaze darting to and from his own, the clear panic and distress which flowed from his upturned mouth and lined forehead only served to stoke the lust which their close proximity sparked.

"Will you be good, Edward? A good boy for me, one who doesn't lie or cheat?" Jonathan asked, his tone laced with arousal as his cock stiffened. It wouldn't be the first time they had fucked, high on his toxin, and - if he had his way - it wouldn't be the last.

"I never cheat. I'm good."

A desperate denial as Edward's breath grew more erratic and his hips canted into Jonathan's thin ass - his body seeking the sensations it desired even as his mind whirled and strained against itself. Stimuli was stimuli and a hot body would always be more appealing than a shifting shadow.

"I said," placing emphasis on the word, Jonathan felt his cock twitch anew and his sharpened tone forced a flinch across Edward's straining body, "will you be good for me? Only me, boy."

"Yes!" Edward practically heaved the word, his distressed gaze staring through Jonathan, "I'll be good, sir."

Not expecting the title, Jonathan groaned and adjusted his slacks with his free hand, the pressure of his fingers brushing against his cock making his head swim with possibility. If Edward was amenable, cognitive enough to respond to him like this, then perhaps he really could be convinced to engage in a little sordid...

...and before the thought could fully form, Edward's eyes fluttered shut and his body went fully limp beneath Jonathan's thin hips.

"Well, fuck." Jonathan grunted, his excitement deflating in an instant as a cruel anger flickered in its place - a desire to lash out in his frustration and punish the unconscious Edward for his failure to remain with him in the moment. He resisted, however, and a quick measure of Edward's pulse confirmed that he was fine.

Huffing as he pulled himself to his feet, Jonathan dropped a hand to his still-hard cock as he stood there dumbly for a moment. That little voice, the one which tickled his thoughts and pressed him to his worst self, whispered ideas of continuing, of using Edward as he was - limp and fully submissive in a way which his conscious mind would never allow - but he shook such an idea away as the fallout would no doubt be messier than he was willing to deal with.

Leaving Edward like a marionette with its strings cut, Jonathan retreated to their shared bedroom and instead dropped to the edge of the bed with a weary sigh as his fingers fumbled messily at his slacks. It took only a moment to free his hardened cock and the instant relief of wrapping his cool hand around the shaft stole a groan from his lips.

He pleasured himself slowly, splitting his attentions between stroking along his length and massaging the balls below, building up the delicious tension across his groin as his mind conjured images of what could have been.

Edward splayed beneath him, his expression glassy yet heated as his hips bucked without thought, impaling Jonathan on his cock as they both allowed their baser nature to consume them.

Fear and arousal.

Predator and willing prey.

Two brilliant minds finding pleasure in the other in a way that no other could.

The sharp noise of a clearing throat dragged him from his thoughts with a vicious start and Jonathan's head whipped around to the doorway of the bedroom to find Edward standing there with a conflicted expression that quickly smoothed out to nothing as he held Jonathan's eye. He was angry, Jonathan could tell, and that anger sat in the sharpness of his gaze and the flush of colour which painted his freckled cheeks a shade of pink.

"That's fucked up." Edward stated simply, looking between Jonathan's face and his cock as his spindly hand resumed its movements to slowly stroke along the length. "You're a sick man. Sick in the head."

"If you're body weren't so weak and unable to handle a mild dose of toxin then we could have both enjoyed something fruitful. As it stands, this is what I am reduced to."

Unashamed, Jonathan released his cock and stared openly at Edward - allowing him to view him in his entirety.

"Beast." Edward sniffed. "Despite your bastardry, I do appreciate the reduced dosage i csn feel making my fingers shake. I have a lunch tomorrow with my girls and they would not enjoy watching me sweat my way through my chicken while desperately searching the shadows for my father."

"Sounds ideal. Perhaps I'll join." His cock abandoned despite its continued arousal as it jutted free of the unruly patch of pubic hair which encircled its base, Jonathan's hand instead scratched at his covered thigh.

"You're not welcome."

"Nina and Diedre-"

"-think you're a cantankerous old crow who is in their debt after that mess in the Lounge they helped you out with."

Snapping his mouth shut, Jonathan glowered at the reminder - his wrist only recently having fully healed from its injuries. Oswald had gifted the table with an expensive collection of white wines and Jonathan has discovered, first hand, that his tolerance of that particular drink was wretched at best.

Jonathan made a dismissive noise in his throat as he returned his hand to his length, absent-mindedly stroking along the sensitive skin as he chose to ignore Edward's words.

"If you're not going to lend a hand then I'll ask that you have the decency to provide me some privacy."

Their earlier argument all but forgotten even as the promise of revenge danced in Edward's sharp eyes, it took the slighty trembling redhead a moment to unleash a long suffering sigh as he turned on his heel and retreated to the living room to fix himself a familiar vitamin cocktail which would take the edge of the remaining toxin as it continued to pulse weakly through his veins.

Fun Facts behind TTEOTM!

Creative Team

Till the End of the Moon is the second TV drama produced by newcomer Otters Studio (獭獭文化), which was originally set up for dangai/BL drama Immortality (皓衣行), also featuring Luo Yunxi.

The Hangzhou-based Otters Studio is a subsidiary of Nanpai Entertainment (南派泛娱), the company owned by Kenneth Xu (aka “Third Uncle" 南派三叔). Xu is best known as the novelist and screenwriter behind "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" (盗墓笔记).

A big part of TTEOTM's core creative team also worked on Immortality. And a lot of the Immortality team came from Ashes of Love (2018) with Luo Yunxi. This includes...

He Fang (Screenwriter) - Immortality

Luo Xuan (Screenwriter & Associate Producer) - Immortality

Huang Wei (Costume Designer) - Immortality

Guan Dazhou (Music Director) - Immortality

Wang Yirong (Lead Producer) - Immortality

Wang Haiqi (B Unit Director & Action Director) - Immortality & Ashes of Love

Tsang Mingfai (Makeup Designer) - Immortality & Ashes of Love

Shen Xufei (Special Effects Director) - Immortality & Ashes of Love

Hua Tian World Concept - Immortality & Ashes of Love

Wang Haiqi was the stunt coordinator who trained Luo Yunxi in Ashes of Love

Part of the creative team came from Huanyu (Bai Lu's management company, aka the production company of Yanxi Palace). This includes award-winning art director Luan Hexin, Huang Xinyao (Yue Fuya) and Liu Min (Nan'an).

This is the second time Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu have paired up in a drama. They previously played a couple in modern workplace romance Love is Sweet (2020). Bai Lu expressed interest publicly in pairing up with LYX again in a costume drama numerous times.

In addition, a number of Love is Sweet actors have minor roles or cameos in TTEOTM:

Zhao Yuanyuan (Qiao Na aka Yuan Shuai's colleague who has a crush on him) plays the Moon Goddess

Cheng Chang (Jiang Jun's father) plays Ye Xiwu's father

Deng Jinghong (Jiang Jun and Yuan Shuai's shady client) plays Ye Xiwu's brother Ye Zeyu

The popularity of TTEOTM has generated renewed interest in Love is Sweet on iQiyi. In the first half of 2023, Love is Sweet is ranked #5 on Yunhe's "old/classic drama" list, receiving 360M views (10M views/episode), equivalent to airing a new medium-budget drama.

Two actors in Ashes of Love also have minor roles in TTEOTM:

Wang Yifei (Shuihe aka peacock princess in Ashes of Love) plays the Devil God's lieutenant Siying

He Zhonghua (Heavenly Emperor aka Runyu's father) plays the King of Sheng, again terrorizing Luo Yunxi's childhood

In addition, a number of TTEOTM actors play minor roles in the unaired Immortality:

Huang Yunyun (Yue Yingxin) plays Song Qiutong

Zheng Guolin (Qu Xuanzi aka Susu's father) plays Jiangxi

Huang Haibing (Zhaoyou) plays Nangong Zhangying

He Zhonghua (King of Sheng) plays Nangong Liu

Geng Yeting (Ye Qingyu) plays an unknown role

Production

The source novel (黑月光拿稳BE剧本) was optioned by Otter before it was complete due to strong early hype around the IP and interesting characters & premise. It's one of the top 10 most-saved web novels of that genre on the Jinjiang platform. Its title literally translates to "black moonlight is guaranteed a bad ending screenplay".

The screenplay was written for 40 episodes, which was edited into 50 episodes of probably 45 mins each. The original plan (based on governmental records) was to air 34 episodes as part 1 and 16 episodes as part 2. However, the NRTA (Chinese government agency that regulates TV) closed the loophole around airing two seasons back to back early this year, which is why TTEOTM was edited back down to 40 episodes of 55 mins each so that it could air in one go.

TTEOTM changed its Chinese title twice. It was originally named 月照千峰为一人 (The moon shines for one person). It was then renamed to 长月无烬 (long moon without Jin/ember, also a pun for without limit or endless), which is the official publication name proposed by fans of the web novel. Right before the booting ceremony, it was renamed 长月烬明 likely for auspicious reasons (especially after the LYX accident and Immortality not airing)

Some keen netizens have noticed that if you break apart the characters of its Chinese title, 长月烬明, it becomes 长月火尽日月, which literally means....

长月 (long moon) - how people refer to the drama, in its short form

火 (fire) - Chinese internet lingo for explosive or popular

尽日月 (to the end of sun and moon)

(Gotta give one to Chinese people for coming up with auspicious names)

Luo Yunxi was injured right before production began when filming his final scene in Light Chaser Rescue. He got punched in the mouth by a costar which required emergency surgery and left a scar on the top left corner of his mouth. Production was delayed as a result. Bai Lu had to film her solo scenes first starting Oct 19, 2021. The booting ceremony took place on Nov 6, 2021 after Luo Yunxi joined the set.

Luo Yunxi was the first actor to be cast, according to an interview with the producer. It is rumored that he might have even picked which novel to adapt as Otter initially optioned both "Black Moonlight" and "Black Lotus Casebook". Bai Lu is also the "only choice" for Li Susu according to Yu Zheng.

Yin Tao (Who Rules The world, Love & Redemption, and Ancient Love Poetry) was originally considered for director, but he worked on the Blood of Youth instead. In the end they went with Kuk Kok Leung, an award-winning veteran TVB director who has adapted 7 out of 8 Jin Yong novels. One of the Cantonese songs Luo Yunxi kept singing on set is the OST of the 1983 Condor Heroes where Kuk served as Assistant Director.

Sun Zhenni (Pianran) and Zhao Shiyi (Fuyu) won their roles through open casting call. Sun Zhenni was a big fan of Bai Lu, and the two became close friends during the shoot. She is 1/4 German Jewish through her paternal grandmother.

Chen Duling (Ye Bingchang / Tian Huan) briefly dated Xichao Wang (who plays Jing Mie, the demon god's other lieutenant). They were apparently introduced by Yu Zheng (boss of Bai Lu's studio).

Luo Yunxi and Sun Zhenni are the only actors who dubbed themselves in the drama. Bai Lu is dubbed by Duan Yixuan, who is also the voice behind Linglong in Love & Redemption.

This is the second time Luo Yunxi plays a dragon god (Runyu is the first). This is also the second time Bai Lu plays a character who leaps off the tower to her death in a costume drama.

Post-production was rumored to be delayed and then rushed due to a number of reasons, including covid which hit the special effects team hard and the last minute change of the 40-episode rule.

Promotion

During the premiere day, celebrities posted on Weibo to promote the drama in support of Luo Yunxi (usually actors only ask for this favor when it's a really important project to their career): Huang Xiaoming, Tan Songyun, Wu Jingyan, Chen Yuqi, Cheng Xiao, Victoria Song, Zhang Ruonan, Huang Xuan, Chen Yao. The most noteworthy ones were Chen Xiao (whose drama was also opening on the same day) and EDG (the esports team that LYX supports)
