Xiang Liu and You (Yes, You)

 nathsketch:

It was great during the first seasons, but then it started to go downhill so I never finished. Seasons 1 and 2 had this dynamic we love. The sweet, good guy vs. the human volcano lol

See, the Originals had no sweet guys.  It didn't even have any 'normal' ones.   I mean, I THOUGHT Elijah was the sane one, but nope, nope.  He just covered his volcano in a nice suit and looked a little less over the top standing next Klaus "I must chew ALL the scenery" Michaelson.  LOL!

 Elise:

"Ten or so years ago, Tan Jianci participated in a variety show, and one of the questions asked, "If you were dying and you could only say three words to your lover, what would you say?"
He answered: Forget me!" ?

That may be 3 words in Mandarin, but in English and in a bunch of other languages, it's only two, so wrong answer. Nice try pretty boy, but nope, here we don't do this forgetting thing you're talking about 😹  

 Kokuto:

Every time I see one of these videos / gifs, I'm like, "He's talking to Meeeeee!"  And then I realize, that nathansketch is exploding next to me, and that's who's he's pointing at.  LOL!

It's like The Boys, with everyone's heads exploding in a domino effect ahahahaha

Yes! Klaus and Caroline were next level!

I really thought Klaus and Caroline were going to be endgame. Klaus told her "He's your first love. I intend to be your last, however long it takes." SO THAT WAS A FREAKING LIE!

why did she end up with Stefan of all people. Their relationship is like Jing and XY. No chemistry, friendship vibes

It's a good thing I dropped it early on. When I saw the direction it was heading, I noped right out of it. Those limp relationships are just too boring.

Tell me about it https://br.pinterest.com/pin/595249275774559871/

I just don't understand how he goes from so adorably sugary CUTE to dangerously lethally hot.

I present exhibit A: "YEAH, I"M READY" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3EByNfk5xw&list=RDNvNasFTs7LM&index=7 (the video quality is just awful, I wish there was a better one available)

Yessssss.

And then we see him being so CUTE in variety shows.  It's kind of like seeing XL dangerous coolness  peek out of FFB affable handsomeness.
