the way everyone has a dislike in their profile that actually says something integral about their character. lu guang doesn't like plans getting messed up, cheng xiaoshi dislikes loneliness, xia fei with owing favors, vein with lying...
and then you have liu xiao, who dislikes... cilantro. and fish mint.
(shakes fist) (putting him in a glass jar and shaking vigorously) learn to be vulnerable!! tell me something about yourself!! I guess him liking movies lines up with the theater metaphors, and there's him liking chess, but that. doesn't count methinks
#mine musings#liveblogging link click#link click#okay the metaphor thing works out a little bit in that. it's on brand#70% of what we know about liu xiao are implicitly gained from other characters#e.g. how xf and ltc relate to him. how the liu family talk about him. how he thematically juxtaposes other characters like lg and cxs#the 30% are the things we know explicitly from him e.g. he's a rich kid with a sports car. he can hear heartbeats#he wants to merge the parallel lines or whatever#the rest are inferences like. oh okay no parallel lines? he doesn't like uncertainties i guess#the way he talks about friendship with xf and ltc? he values a transactional view of relationships#(maybe because transactions imply a certain level of certainty?)#he's the current favored child of the liu family but he wasn't before#he's a “manipulator” but really that's mostly from marketing stuff and implications from canon#like. we know a lot about him but at the same time we don't#the way we just know his uncertainty -> certainty thing contrasts with lg's certainty -> uncertainty thing#we know his heartbeat hearing implies he knows everyone's level of sincerity and both xf and cxs exist as foils to that#the hunter thing with ltc. why does he believe that?#lots of “bringing the darkness” lines in three of his songs for some reason#so like. i can't say that the show hasn't told us anything. they have but in circular ways#we don't know much about him from him directly but we do. know stuff. kinda. do you get me#all i want from YE6 is veinxiao friendship being shown so i can have new dimensions on how lx views friendship#and maybe like. a hint at what his motivations are. like why is he Like That#<- again funnier if he's just Like That from the womb. even if the liu family isn't fucked up he's still Like That#but that's not this show's style so probably not#lx notes#like the INSISTENCE of writing lx as a point of comparison or through other people's perspectives and very rarely from his own#is fascinating to me

Reminder...
Loving them doesn't mean you have to tolerate the choices that hurt or dismiss you...
We all need this reminder now and then.

My grandmother told me that all those physical imperfections you hate about yourself, all those things you have named curse are the same things someone will love about you one day. From your sweet crooked smile to the bump on your nose - all of these things are what makes your beauty unique.

They say, "If it's meant to be, it'll happen."
But someone says, "Sometimes, you have to make it happen."
They say, "Never go to bed angry."
But someone says. "Sometimes, it's okay to sleep on it."
They say. "You should always be yourself."
But someone says. "Sometimes, you have to adjust to make a relationship work."
They say, "If they really loved you, they'd never hurt you."
But someone says, "Love isn't perfect, it's messy and real.
In the end, it's not about listening to everyone else's advice. It's about trusting what feels right for you. People will always have something to say, but only you know what your heart needs, what your mind believes, and what vour soul craves.

So I spent most of my lunch today musing over what would be Viktor's love language (for reasons) because I think we can all agree Jayce's is clearly physical affection.
And the first thing I came up with was words of affirmation and realized the intersection between THAT and Jayce's huge praise kink means there is no way they did not fuck repeatedly throughout their seven years of being 'science partners'

saw a post that was like "it's wild how you don't know someone's going to be important to you when you meet them" and it's genuinely that exact sentiment that i have used to create my own torment nexus because whenever i meet someone new i so often find myself accidentally constructing a timeline in my head where we either get married, become brothers-in-arms, or fight to the death in no hold barred combat

thinking so much about folklore and evermore nowadays... especially how folklore deals with 'teenage' themes (at least the love triangle) and how easy it is to ask for forgiveness and forgive and just being honest about your feelings after allowing yourself to process it and having an upfront communication about everything including missing the childhood that you had/ the friends you were once close with and being open about it ... while evermore being the adult stories was just unresolved issues, love and infidelity (which is both a young and old age thing yet the way it is handled is so different- perhaps for the better because there is some accountable during the latter stage). and just keeping everything inside never telling anyone how you feel and somehow you're at the restaurant and on the run together (because healing is never linear and always messy). so in the end you have to strip yourself to the basics (your younger self and be a bit fearless and wild) to deal with emotions and life. everything comes out teenage petulance indeed.
