Thanks everyone for the positive thoughts. Sometimes life is just hard. Hope we can all get through our rough spots.
I have been obsessively watching Word of Honor. I know it’s a bromance but the BL allusions are pretty obvious. This is only my second xianxia series. When I watch the untamed i didn’t know what xianxia was or what to expect at all, so I was really confused for awhile. With this one i understand the rules of this type of world better, so just the political maneuvering is confusing, which I always have trouble with in historicals. I found some recaps that help a little. Still, I wish i could find a good character list with all their names. Having one character with multiple names is hard. I try to refer to MDL but it doesn’t have all the name variations. Plus the dialogue is not using the same names as the subtitles, but rather “brother this” or that. I’m watching on Netflix which is only available til the 27th. But Prime also has it. Viki took it down which is too bad because usually the subtitles explain more than other channels.
Starting today i have a friend from high school visiting and some relatives coming to town for a birthday party for my parents, who both turn 80 this year. (Yes, I’m old too.) I don’t enjoy my own birthday so much anymore either as I get older, but I will go out with my friend so that should be fun.
I won’t have as much time to watch anything for the next week but I will try to keep up. Plus all the socializing is tiring and I need the escape.
