THE UNTAMED episode 20

So, this post about Wei Wuxian going ballistic once he hears that JC is marrying gave me a good giggle.

And it also made me think - what if he was right? What if the bride was suspicious?

And the person who brought it to his attention was no one else than JC's right hand, the Yunemeng Jiang First Disciple.

WWX is experiencing one mental breakdown after another. Double betrayal? Et tu shidi?!

Now he has to work with this duplicitous pretender to disrupt the wedding and save the Jiang Sect Leader from being fooled into marriage?! Gods keep testing him!!

“Kymans trying to justify their ship isn’t toxic” I mean they’re toxic but that’s part of it tbh, it doesn’t always have to be all “fluff and wholesomeness 🥺” in every damn ship, learn to have some fun or at least let others have fun?? Pinchesaguados😴

"c12的迷幻蓝天，《天使连环失踪事件》" 冯伟 Feng Wei（c12）

[penguinotaku]

It's pride month and time for a new headcanon for our only Chinese racer in Cars; Long Ge or Zhang Wei Long provided by @physicalyx-613 and human form by @aurora-ze-aquarius

Every June ( if there's an opening in his racing schedule), they book a trip to Taipei. They wash out the hair dye, only snowy white hair brushed and tied loosely back into a man bun tucked under a baseball cap, wearing sunglasses to hide pale blue eyes. Avoiding the usual parks, malls, and shops; there's a special place that they visit away from the cameras and fans. Tucked in an alley way from the traffic and pedestrians is a very special Taoist temple.

That temple is devoted to a very special god: Tu Er Shen, the Chinese god of homosexuality and in more recent times, the entirety of the queer spectrum and any non heterosexual love. Zhang prays with joss sticks, bowing three times before the main shrine, the name bathed in pink backlight.

Long Ge prays for securing safety and love for all couples and quietly for themself. For all the lost love that never came to be and those remaining in the closet for self-preservation. Mainland China is not exactly welcoming for people like them, censoring any mentions of the LGBTQIA+ in the media and history.

But Zhang knows better than most. They read the historical records and stories of bitten peaches, shorn sleeves, fox spirits changing forms and ribald and bawdy stories from dynasties long ago.

Some days, Zhang Wei Long is Bai Suzhen, moving heaven and earth to find her love, only to be betrayed and defeated by Fa-Hai, sealed in Leifong Pagoda. Her snowy white hair and icy blue eyes already set her apart from the majority of people. Zhang wouldn't be that surprised if she woke to pearly iridescent snake scales, fangs, forked tongue, tail, and slit pupil eyes reflected in the mirror. She's seen the pictures of leucistic snakes and wonders if Bai Suzhen ever had white hair (most depictions had the standard black hair so no dice for that). West Lake in Hangzhou was also a favorite place for Zhang-jie to visit, paying homage to the folklore.

Other days, Zhang Wei Long is Huang Jiulang from Pu Songling's "The Cut Sleeve". Those days, fox ears and tail would be a welcome if expected surprise one morning. Though the number of tails he would have is still up for debate (definitely less than nine, he humors himself). Male huli jing were plentiful in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio but were mostly into women while a few had homosexual relations. Zhang never really had a particular preference for either sex or gender and before his racing career, had relations all over the rainbow.

On other days, Lan Caihe could probably empathize with them. Artists weren't sure whether to depict them as male, female or some other for all together. Likewise in photoshoots and modelling, they could become very androgynous and portray both masculine and feminine sides. It earned them quite a number of queer fans, thanking them for showing themselves in their true light as is.

Zhang often donated to the Hall of Martial Brilliance as often as he could. They also donated to various LGBTQIA+ organizations around China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau. This time, Zhang offered a bottle of Midori that Shu gifted them from a Secret Santa to the rabbit deity. Ta-ye would appreciate having new drink aside from the bottled teas and baiju.

The Untamed, Episode 2

[thefurrowedbrow]

I wish I loved "Put Your Head On My Shoulder" more. It has a strong start, but I had to force myself through the last 6-8 episodes. It jsut felt like not much was going on, which is okay with me if I feel like that time is used for character and relationship development. And it was a bit, but mostly I didn't feel by episode 24 (the finale) that the main couple was even ready to get married. I wish they would have dated longer or the show at least showed them getting past the initial awkwardness of dating at some point. But the physical intimacy still looked cold by the last ep.

I liked the concept and the characters though. Si Tu Mo is so cute, I'll definitely have to look into her actress. Mo Mo and Gu Wei Yi together was also fun to watch though there were some immature moments here and there, which actually fit their age so I didn't mind.

Shan Shan? Also cute! Her character and Fu Pei's, and then them together were really interesting to me. I like that Fu Pei wasn't cut slack for stringing Mo Mo along, and I also like that Shan Shan wasn't really cut slack for her self-sacrifices. Their relationship is... idk how to describe it but it's so clearly built on red flags and enabling, and the show chose to not really sugarcoat that, which made it interesting to see what the writers were trying to tell us.
