Picspam: Fu You

[china_shop]

We had a great discussion on Fu You's character post a few years ago, but I felt like doing a picspam for her, too. She doesn't get a lot of screentime, but I find her likeable and capable, as well as confident in her leadership position.

Note: I slightly lightened some of the interior screencaps. And I've tried to put them in her personal chronological order, but they got a bit jumbled in my screencaps folder so I had to guess which scenes a couple of them were from. Fingers crossed I got that right!


First Hallows transmission (ep 38), surprised to see Da Qing.


Second Hallows transmission (ep 40), dismayed at the state Zhao Yunlan is in.


I think this is the scene where Zhao Yunlan first arrives at Allied Forces HQ (ep 34).


Ditto.


Receiving the sacred branch from Ma Gui (ep 37).


At the signing of the treaty (ep 35).


Ditto?

And the rest are from the disbanding of the Allied Forces (ep 35):












Come and talk to me about Fu You! Do you like her? Do you have any favourite fanworks about her? Any theories about her place in the Allied Forces hierarchy, or speculation/head canons about what she did afterwards?

Great caps! I wish we'd learned more about her - both during YOHE (we don't even learn she's a Snake there!), and about her legacy with the Snake tribe and the Yashou overall.

I especially would like to know more about her thoughts regarding the Yashou withdrawing, and how that gets passed down over the centuries and millennia.

Yeah, she comes across as such an interesting character, even with her very limited screentime, and given the hints we get, there are so many possibilities to her background. It really enhances the richness of the world, doesn't it?

I think she'd understand, even if it exasperated her. But oh, now I really want a political conversation between Fu You and Ya Qing!! Maybe Ya Qing could get her hands on the Hallows at some point and they could talk via the Hallows communication?? :D

It really does!

OHHHH what a brilliant idea!

Or what if Ya Qing ended up time-travelling back to YOHE? That would be amazing ...

Oooooh! Depending on when it was set in her timeline, she'd have to overcome a whole lot of prejudice about the different peoples working together, too. (If you ever feel like writing this, I'm standing by with so many pompoms!!)

[trobadora]

She'd have such a hard time adjusting to the dynamics back then! She'd react badly in totally inexplicable ways from the perspective of the YOHE characters! So much potential! :D

Yeah, I love the idea, I'm definitely keeping that in the back of my head!
