Power shifts

The battle is halted and both sides part ways for now. LianYue is chastised by Prince of Longya for not identifying all the young men effected by puppet poison. The Prince does seem to be getting his affairs in order and giving final plans and wishes to those around him. Uncle Zhe has arrived and he has taken the option for power transfer between him and MuYu. He recognizes that neither MuYu or his daughter will alter their plans so he empowers MuYu as much as possible and suggests a quiet life in Na’an clinic when this is all sorted. Changhe has successfully reached 9th level hell palm but learns after the fact there is serious backlash if used. First Prince continues to be an annoying prat but that seems what his role is to be. He isn’t happy that Changhe has a very detailed account of Blood River members and is well aware of what’s been happening. The eunuch gives him a 50/50 chance of being able to kill the first Prince. He is such a cowardly weasel that I don’t think he will be missed, but the powers that be seem to accept he will be on the throne. 😝 I really want another option. He doesn’t need puppet poison, he is already eunuch’s puppet.😝They are preparing for confrontation to finish it and with golden puppet the sides are too close with first prince having the edge. I still find Lianyue’s character lesser since he has returned. I don’t know if that is by design to follow story, but I find myself as disappointed in him as Rabbit is and I am unconvinced by the Prince’s words as she is. I was so hopeful for these two initially, but if this is the extent of his character now, she is better off without him.

Inspector Singha is falling down that rabbit hole real fast

Another week, another phenomenal episode~ Plot : The crime investigation really keeps you hooked and on your toes, making you suspicious of every character in the series. This time you also get a better understanding of SeyDarin's dynamic and their past. Personally i loved the scene where Inspector Singha comforted Thup in the bathroom, showing how much he truly cares for him. And may I also add how much I appreciate Pooh's acting in this series? He already nailed his character "Charlie" in pitbabe, but this time he shows an even bigger range in emotions and expressions. Pavel in a uniform? What I also loved is that eventhough Singha doesn't believe in ghosts and in the supernatural in general, he doesn't dismiss Thup's insight and keeps him in his team as a supernatural consultant. And the end??? Yes Singha let's go show everyone that you are the only who can comfort him and keep him safe

the fact that this BL is keeping the momentum…

the fact that this BL is keeping the momentum going & it is still as good as it was at the start, i am quite impressed. even though i have to admit i've kinda gone off Darin - i don't like his playing hard to get when he knows he isn't ready to let go of Sey, is rubbing me the wrong way. no one can promise that things wont go wrong in a relationship - especially if u don't address sh*t that went wrong the 1st time around. Sey had no reason to apologize, what Darin did was a dick move. he kept pushing him away & then allowing him into his bed - which kept Sey hanging on - hoping that there might come a day that they would be together - but then the day after Darin would again push him away. that was a dick move, as was his trying to get in the face of the new guy that was showing interest in Sey. Sey was justified in getting angry - the fact the "smile" popped-up to prevent Darin from disclosing what he found, is neither here nor there. & now Darin is acting like he is the one that was wronged, just cause he got hurt. yeah - i am totally gone off this side "romance". even though i do like Darin when he isn't around Sey. then he acts normal - **************************************************************************************************************************didn't think we would get any romantic development between the mains - not while Thup was still in statues of witness. but we got some... or rather Singha got some lol. now with King breathing down Thup's neck, i wonder what Singha gonna do. the fact King's trying to stich up Thup, when they have a potential suspect is infuriating. it feels like he just wants to get between Thup & Singha, this is the only way he thought up. but again, maybe it is only about closing the case & helping his father idk - *************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: find it kinda hilarious how everyone has found religion cause of this case.

PoohPavel are so back!

Finally we are getting PoohPavel back on the big screen and they are having me hooked since the first minute. The first scene immediately sets the vibe for the whole series : mystery, supernatural, investigation and a whole lot of chemistry. Thup, played by our lovely Pooh, is so endearing and makes you want to cuddle him and protect him from the evil of the world. It sucks to be us because Singha, our handsome Pavel, eventhough a bit (a lot) suspicious of Thup and especially about all the supernatural stuff, it's obvious that he has a soft spot for the ghost seeing orphan. Normally I don't like scary/horror series, but i gotta say i'm really invested in this one and can't wait to see what will happen (edit : i already watched all 6 episodes but forgot to type out my notes after each episode).
