I have been in a love/hate relationship with this video for 2 years, making sure it was perfect, but I'm so happy and proud of how it turned out. This is my first Nirvana In Fire video, and hopefully, I will be making more.

This video is dedicated to @not-saying-revolution-but after she made me a gifset from Guardian.

Mei Changsu's plots, Part One

Although 'Befriend Jingrui' was clearly Step 0, the first step we see MCS take in the show is the Tingsheng vs Baili Qi plot. It's small, low risk and neatly self contained.

Episodes: 3-5

Goals: a) Rescue Jingyu-gege's son and b) Impress Jingyan.

Parameters: Tingsheng is a slave. He cannot be released without someone very high up approving. Anything less than a legal pardon will be insufficient for Jingyan. It is vitally important that no one finds out Tingsheng's identity, looks at him much, or examines his history.

Resources: Mei Changsu's reputation; Meng Zhi; Nihuang (limited, at this stage)

When MCS has a problem, he goes and looks for another problem to use as the solution. MCS is a big fan of two birds with one stone. In this case, he has a secondary problem: Baili Qi is doing his job a little too well and the court is in uproar at the thought of Nihuang's armies married to a foreigner. Smush the two problems together, and you have a solution.

Necessary elements: Three boys, to avoid singling out Tingsheng.

Potential failure points: This one's pretty foolproof, since MCS is essentially playing both sides of the board, with Baili Qi working for him. Meng Zhi needs to pick the right kid, but presumably they had some way of being sure of that. MCS needs the opportunity to make the suggestion at court, but at this point the CP is still hopeful MCS might work for him, and allows himself to be shushed. The Emperor needs to decide to free the boys as a reward, but MCS did that by distracting him with the question of who gets custody of the kids.

Outcomes: Tingsheng is safe and free. Jingyan is impressed. Baili Qi is defanged.

Side benefit: MCS makes a good first impression with the Emperor.

[wjsns]

and u know what im ready to make my full statement on MENG MEI QI too. the situation is so crazy to me, basically now in 2023 some ujung wont even type out her name because 1. cheating scandal (WHERE SHE WAS THE 3RD PARTY, WASNT EVEN THE PERSON TO CHEAT ON SOMEONE) and 2. doesnt mention wjsn ever and to me that is literally HILARIOUS like, god its just soooo funny to watch everyone pile in with the loudest most popular opinion and not do personal critical thinking, or hey, maybe they did and what mmq did really WAS too much for them to still support her but in that case i raise an eyebrow because idk… a lottt of yall are the same people who will get online and write about loving evil women and letting girls be shitty etc etc and she literally gives you what you asked for on a silver PLATTER, like doing nothing cancellable just giving us a good wholesome woman being evil and selfish and obsessed w herself and everyone turns on her!!!! sorry shes not fucking chuu lmao!? (ilu chuu no hate but there is space for good AND evil girls in my heart😇) im sorry im SO unbothered by her being the other woman in a cheating scandal like i cant imagine something mattering less to me and it actually made me super happy to confirm she fucks even tho the guy was ugly😇 but i said kinda most of this already so SECOND OF ALL about her not mentioning wjsn and shit… another thing i literally have NO problem with?? again, like…… no one was more distraught than me at what happened to ot13 but these are REAL PEOOLEEEEEEEEEE?!????!??? i’ve said this before too but i think its worth mentioning, i think my perspective on WJSN has always been a certain way because i grew up playing soccer on a team of the same ~18 girls for over 8 years and im very familiar with, idk, “team dynamics” in groups of girls growing up together? so i understand what its like to be in a larger group dedicated towards this ultimate, performance based goal together and while not everyone out of those 18 girls is one-to-one best friends and lots of people have pretty significant differences, none of that matters “on the field” or when you’re “working”, and its actually lowkey beautiful hiw such different people can unite together to make their dream happen AND develop really long lasting strong relationships w each other when they would otherwise might not have. so ive never had illusions that wjsn as a group has this monolithic motivator or reason for being in wjsn or being an idol, they are all super different personalities and have different interest areas like acting, musicals, song production, MCing etc! so its really impossible for me to feel upset or bothered in any way when i hear complaints about mmq’s behavior in this area because im like ? she obviously has/had this solo career (that i have to believe she had way more control and stylistic direction over than with wjsn) in her home country where she gets to embrace her personal style and concepts instead of matching wjsns, shes clearly separating from that past image and going in a different direction w her career! it does make me bummed that shes not getting 13 stars tattooed like xiao did but again what am i gonna do, be mad that this artist who i really care abt as a person is going off on their own path and direction? cujung is a ROCK of this fanbase its not like a mmq wjsn mention is going to create millions more ujung and album sales? just never added up to me, IM not gonna feel some type of way about it because stan twit fucking tells me to, like how it feels a lot of ujungs react to everything! that one thing going around that was like “wjsn are coworkers not friends” was sooooo funny for me to watch ujung actually get mad about because like,,, they ARE coworkers? AND FRIENDS?! there are 13 of them? each person has a unique individual and complex relationship with each other person? ah idk why i even bother with these essays the avg kpop stans iq is literally 65 yall love being spoonfed parasocial relationships simulated for ur consumption so much u completely block out ​the fact they are real people

[amynchan]

According to Wikipedia's List of giant pandas (just the ones who are alive), there are 19 Great Pandas born after June 6, 2008. Here are the names and birth dates I found of the ones still living (they're not in chronological order):

Bao Bao (born 2013)

Bei Bei (born 2015)

He Hua (born 2020)

Jia Panpan (born 2015)

Jia Yueyue (born 2015)

Jiao Qing (born 2010)

Lin Bing (born 2009)

Meng Lan (born 2015)

Po (born 2010) [lol]

Qi Zai (born 2009)

Rou Rou (born 2016)

Xiao Liwu (born 2012)

Xiang Xiang (born 2017)

Xiao Qi Ji (born 2020)

Yuan Zai (born 2013)

Yun Zi (born 2009)

Fubao (2020)

Da Mao (September 1, 2008)

Xi Lan (August 30, 2008)

And now because I'm curious (and rolling with it at this point), I'm gonna count how many giant pandas were born after 2008 but who may have, unfortunately, passed away. [one brief overview later] The good news is that there are none! (at least, no famous ones. Still, a win is a win!)

So, yeah. This is only a list of giant pandas (so we're not getting red pandas or literally any other species here), but for giant pandas, an average birth rate of less than two new pandas a year with the spike of panda births being 2 in 2008 and no new giant pandas since 2020 (4 years ago now) means that the original thought was straight up feasible to someone who's not bored enough to comb through wikipedia and its resources to figure it out. XD I thought it was real for a hot second until I wanted to figure out the numbers. XD

[listen: I know I only counted the pandas that have been born since KFP came out. There are an additional 7 pandas who have been born between 2004-2008 as well (marking an actual 20 year number), but I thought it'd be funnier just to pit the movie franchise against the real-time population rate . XD List here:

Er Shun (2007)

Mei Lan (2006)

Su Lin (2005)

Tai Shan (2005)

Yuan Yuan (2004)

Wang Wang (2005)

Zhen Zhen (2007)

This leaves the final score at 4 movies over 16 years v 26 itty bitty giant panda babies over 20 years. Though, at a quick glance, the rate of pandas (1.58 births per year with a maximum of 2/year over a 12 year period v. 2.33 births per year with a maximum of 3/year over a 4 year period) seems to be going down. That or giant pandas fucked relatively hard in 2004-2005.)]

[miss-starryeyes]

TGCF. It was actually the first danmei I ever read, and I just adore it. Although, SVSSS gets better each time I reread it.

Hualian. Devoted believer X forgotten god is an incredible dynamic, and I love both of them so much. I love that their relationship just grows. It doesn’t rely on too much drama or miscommunication.

Xie Lian (a pattern emerges!) He is such well-fleshed out character. I love how he has so many different facets: soft/strong, wise/foolish, kind/unyielding, shameless/sensitive, etc.

Hua Cheng! His design is so bold, I think it would be so fun. Plus, I would feel like a badass with Eming.

Tianlang-jun X Yue Qingyuan. I just. Like this ship a totally normal amount.

Tianlang-jun. That man was such an absolute mood. I just want to get his take on totally random, everyday things.

Honestly, I can’t think of any! I feel like all the characters I’ve encountered in danmei so far have served a purpose, so even if I don’t like them, they still contribute to their respective novels.

Probably SVSSS. I feel like my survival rate would be the highest.

XIAO XINGCHEN!!!!!!!! MXTX novels have so many characters that deserve to be resurrected, but I am never getting over Xiao Xingchen. I just want him to be happy!

Jin Zixun. I resurrect him, then kill him again just for spite.

“The Flower-Crowned Martial God; Sword in one hand, flower in the other. Shi Qingxuan only remembered the flower, but had forgotten: Xie Lian ascended because of his sword.” The shivers it gives me...

Wen Ning, per the tumblr poll.

Wangxian. Only Wangxian doesn't have 1 person in the couple that would just be pissed off at someone 3rd wheeling. They're used to it with a certain Ghost General.

Hua Cheng. Where to even begin? The butterflies, the spiritual energy, E'Ming. Honestly, him being able to turn people into budaoweng dolls might just be my favorite of his powers.

We all know it's Su She. Don't even pretend it's not.

Lan Xichen. I bet he'd have a really random taste in music.

Meng Yao. He would figure out modern-day etiquette and tax loop holes in no time.

I want Chu Wanning's wontons!!! Erha has the best food descriptions, but the wontons also stood out to me. I am actually really hungry now that I think about it.

Shen Zechuan. Shit would get done.

Jiang Cheng. My boy needs it.

Nie Mingjue. He's still got the 'stache so he can just go around looking like a biker dude.

There is no fucking way Qi Rong can swim. Even if he could swim, he just wouldn't. He'd thrash around to make a scene.

Luo Binghe, because of the protagonist halo.

Jingyi would definitely watch anime despite it not being allowed in cloud recesses. I think he'd like the classic Naruto/Dragon Ball Z shonen, but I also think he'd like magical girl anime even though he's too embarrassed to admit it. Shen Yuan and Shang Qinghua DEFINITELY used to watch anime. SY probably watched things he thought would have a good plot (Death Note, JJK) and SQH has absolutely watched hentai.

Zhuzhi-lang? I don't think he would view it as a sexual thing, but I can see him being interested in animal behavior. Plus, Tianlang-jun would be laughing his ass off in the background.

Nie Huaisang.

Shi Mei. Everybody would assume. that he's shy and not a good actor, but he's responsible and literally the only child in the sect that can stand perfectly motionless for the entire duration of the play.

Luo Binghe. Seriously. I *poorly* explained TGCF and SVSSS to her, and she said LBH was "sweet". EDIT: She now says she wants to svsss, which is a turn of events I did not anticipate.

I'd love to be adopted by Jiang Yanli.

Wen Ning. Is he an adult? Yes. Would I still adopt him? Absolutely.

Nirvana in Fire Rewatch Episode Eighteen

Events:

Xia Chun finds the music scroll. Banruo finds a secret room and Fei Liu's toys. No one finds the secret passage to Jingyan's manor.

MCS begs Meng Zhi and Nihuang to be careful not to let Jingyan suspect who he is.

Prince Yu scolds Banruo for searching. She flatters him and he patronises her. It's icky. She tells him a Southern Chu merchant has been talking about Liyang's relationship with a Southern Chu hostage prince.

Jing-ping and Hui-fei discuss a possible marriage alliance with Southern Chu.

Jingyan visits MCS in the night to tell him he's been sent on military business. He asks him why he's helping him and if he knew Prince Qi. MCS deflects.

Mu Qing tells his sister about the decision in the latest ministerial corruption cases. (This is a very cute way to deliver exposition.) Minster He of Personnel is demoted and sent to a province. Minster Qi of Justice is sentenced to exile.

Jingyan helps the Emperor decide on Cai Quan for Minister of Justice.

The Emperor decides to visit Jing-pin.

Names and titles:

Yujin calls Li Gang 'Li Gang-dage'.

Prince Yu refers to 'Liyang-gugu'.

Characters:

Mu Qing isn't as stupid as he looks; he's worked out there's a pattern with events lately, where Prince Yu and the CP keep losing power.

MCS is genuinely worried about the future of the country if the next emperor isn't strong.

The Emperor is frustrated that the faction fighting has cost him two ministers. My dude you brought this on yourself.

The Emperor is angry everyone gets scared whenever he mentions Chen-guifei or Prince Qi. My dude you brought that on yourself.

One of the Emperor's criteria for succession is 'which of them is most like me?'

MCS - see below

Time:

It's mid-spring.

When did Meng Zhi and Nihuang discover the other knew MCS was Lin Shu? Did I already note that?

Misc:

There's no imperial princess of age to be married.

The Chu take divination seriously.

MCS's reasons for not telling Jingyan:

Jingyan can proceed without emotional distraction.

Jingyan doesn't have to think of Mei Changsu's feelings.

Jingyan wouldn't like Lin Shu doing underhanded things.

JIngyan would try to protect Lin Shu as his first priority.

Also, it makes it emotionally easier for me (MCS).

It stops us arguing with each other.

I am poison and Jingyan is pure.
