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

thank you! yes that was part of my question. i understood the inside joke when they laughed because i'm aware of this in the novel but not all viewers are so i was wondering if they were gonna leave them clueless like that. censorship sucks but at least that would explain things, those of us in the know would understand the real meaning and show-only viewers would also find a reasonable answer. what surprised me is jiushi's reaction because we never saw that explained to him on screen but as you said it's probably implied as something that happened offscreen.
anyway i'm glad they try to keep things sensical even if they can't tell or show everything

thank you! i'm glad they will at least explain it even if they censored the whole crossdressing thing as it was in the novel. the way it played out was like an inside joke between obsidian members and i was afraid they would leave viewers clueless about it.

i don't mind ofc and thanks for answering 😊

yes i thought the name baijie could give viewers a clue tho it's still not enough to conclude the girl is simply rlz himself. i appreciate that they will still explain it later because that would make more sense even if they're not gonna show it onscreen

i have a question if you don't mind : there's the guy who has a crush on baijie and everyone is reacting with laughs so i assume they know it's rlz crossdressing but it was never addressed before in the show, will they do it later? i myself know because i read about it elsewhere but i imagine people exclusively watching with no prior knowledge would be confused

i can't wait! he's such a fun character i love him sm

i'm now at the human skin drum arc and rlz acting like a sick victorian child is cracking me up 😂
lingling is stuck to his side and ready to hold him at all times and the little brat is enjoying it a little too much

sorry to butt in but your answer made me laugh lol
