i'm not to that part yet so i pretend it won't happen 😭

on the river god arc, lingling's first door alone and it's funny how he mentions lanzhu every 2 minutes. boy do you miss him that much already? but i understand, i miss him too on my screen

on ep 26 now and i'm so stressed to go further, no more laughing after this 😭

jiushi to lanzhou : heaven is a place on earth with you

my understanding is one can refuse to enter for a moment but they can't do it forever. when the time to enter comes, wherever you are whatever door you cross will lead you into the game so unless you spend your life avoiding doors which sounds impossible, it's just unavoidable. i guess the consequence of refusing is death, just like when they fail to clear the door. i hope i'm not mistaken and if anyone has a clear answer i'd like to read about it too

"anything is okay for me as long as it's cooked by you" SHUT UP WE GET IT!!

the new year's episode has me in my feels, so domestic and tender 🥺
"i can see what others can't, like the light in you" then insert the softest look in lanzhu's eyes like stop! even i am shaken lol it's also funny to me how the entire episode is just everyone acknowledging jiushi is different to lanzhu and very special to him

i'm lowkey scared tho, i feel this is the calm before the storm

i believe viki is releasing 2 episodes every day, i'm a little behind but i'm following their pace

drinking game idea : take a shot every time lanzhu is watching jiushi sleep

thank you so much! it sounds like a fun but also emotional slow burn the way i like them 🥺 i wanna start reading the novel as soon as i finish the drama and this makes me more excited to do just that 😊

it's a very personal interpretation but i like to think of jiushi as somewhere on the aro/ace spectrum. i laughed at him saying he could have a cat and be fine with it but i also think it's valid and relatable

sorry if you have already answered this (maybe more than once😅) but how do they even get together in the novel? i don't mind spoilers btw

this whole baijie/girlfriend/single convo is so hilarious i keep replaying it 🤣 poor lanzhu dropping hints that he's right there if lingling would have him then dejectedly realizing it's a skill issue on linling's part lmao

chen fei is so hot it's almost distracting 😳

i see, thank you! 😊

ok 👌 thank you 😊

after that

we go from the tour guide calling them to gather outside at the end of ep9 to lanzhu digging the skulls and bones out of the observatory wall at the start of ep10. surely other things happened inbetween but it's not shown

in the 38-ep version, the transition from ep9 to ep10 is kinda off, i'm suspecting there's a part missing there. i haven't seen the original release so i can't check. is it like that for everyone or is it the source where i'm watching? 🤔

yeah they're actually doing a great job trying to keep the essence of the original work despite the many obstacles, respect to them!

btw is the novel told from lqs pov only? or do we get rnz's too?

lowkey nervous about what might happen later 😭 it's all fun and games now and i'm trying to enjoy the laughs while i can
