Ya Qing definitely knows better! She actually engages with the SID as people instead of just obstacles, even though she seems annoyed by them every time she does. (It's why her eventual turn to helping them makes so much sense! She'd always had the heart for it.)

Yes! She does plenty of awful things and supports more, but she's clearly in a different category from Zhu Jiu even so. I love her.

Chu Shuzhi leaning into the violence he's capable of is just really compelling to me! It's such a contrast from the rest of the SID! He's willing to do the dirty work, and he makes himself out as someone who can even enjoy it, and how much is a role he's playing vs how much is true is an interesting question, along with how much guilt he has over whatever feelings he does have.

Yeah, that's so fascinating! I would love a discussion about the cannibal scene, that could be great ...

even though in the moment I doubt Zhu Jiu would accept it, planting a tiny seed of doubt would be really interesting! (Especially if it led to him not sacrificing himself as the final life to raise Ye Zun.)

Yeah, that would have been fascinating! And even if it didn't lead to any big change in his decisions, having him hesitate for a moment at a crucial moment could have been enough to make a big difference ...
