Pic Spam: Affection and Protection!

[awanderingcoyote]

I am such a big ChuGuo fan, and I was pondering what to do for my scene/discussion, and I decided to start looking into all the little moments between Chu Shuzhi and Guo Changcheng, primarily focusing on affection and protection :D

I haven't gotten far yet, but I have scoured the first episode for all the little moments where Guo Changcheng sought out protection from Chu Shuzhi.

In my HC protection is definitely one of Chu Shuzhi's love languages (which I suppose comes down to acts of service?!?!). EITHER WAY, I hope everyone enjoys this little pic spam moment from me :D

Here is the first instance in episode 1 where Guo Changcheng hides behind Chu Shuzhi, albeit he hid behind both Chu Shuzhi and Zhao Yunlan. 


Guo Changcheng is FOR SURE hiding behind Chu Shuzhi here.  


I know it's not Chu Shuzhi in this one, but I just thought it was cute that he was all hiding behind Zhao Yunlan as well.


Oh no, Guo Changcheng scared himself by kicking over some cans (or something!) and Chu Shuzhi is unaware that he has incoming! 


He's for sure aware now XD


We jump ahead to where the Shadow Man has arrived!  Guo Changcheng is definitely arm/coat clutching here. XD


As Hei Pao Shi arrives for the first time XD  This was pretty blurry apologies :) I was just screen grabbing from my videos :)


Chu Shuzhi happily helps Guo Changcheng show the correct respect to HPS' arrival XD LOLOL.


Interesting note here I just realized Lin Jing was the last one to drop his gaze with HPS' arrival.  XD  Even Da Qing is all: I will lower my eyes a little bit. 


Guo Changcheng wants to say something to HPS XD It gets scary for him.  Clearly Chu Shuzhi is less scary than HPS because he immediately scoots closer and arm clutches. 


And that's it!  

I could probably scream to the void for hours on end how much I love their dynamic.  The grump and the sunshine and each trying to protect each other in their own special way :D

Some Points to Ponder and/or questions:

• What are some of your favorite Chu Shuzhi/Guo Changcheng moment?
• When I was re-watching episode 1, I didn't realize how quickly GCC did glom onto CSZ.  For some reason in my brain, it didn't really start until episode 3ish.  I have no idea why my brain felt that!
• No matter how many times I rewatch the series I feel like I spot new things I never noticed the last go around XD  I actually watched the episode with no sound on and I was just all: Oh wow I never noticed that before! at several parts.  Some of it was facial expressions, but also scenery and such too. And I sure have watched the first episode more than once (or twice XD) and this is why I love this show :D

Oh, they're so adorable, what a great post.

oh dear, as a Lin Jing fan now I want to start analyzing his relationship with HPS and Shen Wei respectively...

What are some of your favorite Chu Shuzhi/Guo Changcheng moment?
My absolute favorites are both in episode 18--one at the boxing ring just before Chu Shuzhi goes in to fight, when Xiao Guo says "Chu-ge..." and Chu Shuzhi grins at him and it's basically "I love you." "I know." And then later in the episode when they burst in to un-kidnap Lin Jing and Da Qing; they're just absolutely delighted with each other and Da Qing has to say "Could you quit with the mutual admiration society and untie us already?!" <3

No matter how many times I rewatch the series I feel like I spot new things I never noticed the last go around XD
Yes! This is one reason I think (for all it's not without issues) it really is such a good piece of work; there are so many interesting small thoughtful details.
