*hearts*

did you know his Jing character 静 means "quiet"? Wishful thinking on his parents' part, clearly

LOL! Perfect.

And Zhao Xinci seems to know perfectly well what is going on and to be playing along, rather than actually falling for any of Lin Jing's patter. He's only really disturbed when the dark energy detector comes out, presumably because he knows it's going to react to him.

And even then, he retains his poise. Note to self: do not play poker with Zhao Xinci! *g*

Irrelevantly, I love the whole scene with the popcorn maker, especially Xiao Guo chivalrously serving Zhu Hong and her satisfied "see, here's a man who knows how to behave."

Yes, the whole team shines there. I love Da Qing trying to stop ZYL from interrupting, and ZYL jumping on the table and taking a handful. *g*

I don't think the bed itself does anything (maybe?) it's just a useful place for people to lie down and have things done to them with other machines?

Yeah. It has some lights in the base, but it's not clear that they indicate anything. Maybe it can be heated?

all of which are true, but also serve to heighten the punch when we gradually learn that he's also a damn good liar when he wants to be, that he does see people and does care about them, that he can be deadly serious (and still not forget to brag).

Oh, that's so true. His arc is actually a lot like ZYL's -- learning to be real with people. He might also be the only character we see dream, outside of the Master of Nightmares arc. I'm not 100% sure of that, but we do see him dream at least twice -- once at the start of the face-stealer case (in the car!) and once about Sha Ya.

I love your rambles! <3
