Ahhh, what an awesome picspam! I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to come back to it. (And also I'm very much looking forward to your If it fits picspam in the future, heeeeee! ♥!) - I'm so glad you liked the picspam and yes if it fits I sit is going to be hilarious. The amount of times people sit uniquely is hilarious :D
(I'm just going to pop in the paragraph I wrote about this during the rewatch. I hope that's okay! - OMG yes! :D I love seeing otherwrite-ups/thoughts/insights to this scene :D :D :D
This may be his most likeable moment in the whole show. - THIS MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD :D Because it's so true. SO SO true LOLOLOLOL.
I wonder if the combat book is assigned reading, hee. Like, Chu Shuzhi deciding that Changcheng is so klutzy, he might be better off learning the basics from a book? *g* - I love this thought! Chu-ge just all: Read this first. LOLOLOL. And then just the whole SID getting on the same boat and giving him different books to read to help him out XD
I'm always so interested by this mild-mannered persona. And I think you're right that he ran into Changcheng deliberately. It's like he's trying to charm each member of the SID, one by one (except for Chu Shuzhi, of course!) - This is such an interesting thought! My brain just went to was he getting on Changcheng's good side, because somehow he knew Chu Shuzhi and Guo Changcheng were partners and it's another way to get under Chu Shuzhi's skin. XD THough I also love the thought of the Regent trying to butter everyone up to get on their good sides.
LOL! And also, ick, I need a shower. That little pout!! /o\ - RIGHT RIGHT!
Yesss! Maybe they always train together in the mornings, and that's what Changcheng is late for? And lol at Chu Shuzhi playing it cool and stern like that. :D - AHHH I LOVE THIS THOUGHT! Maybe that's why he was reading the book in the morning so he could remember everything he could for their morning practices XD
It's interesting that Changcheng outright points at the Regent. That seems kind of rude -- maybe he's secretly annoyed by having been delayed. Heh. - I thought the same thing! I do think Guo Changcheng was mildly irritated at the Regent's behavior XD
I wonder what, specifically, Chu Shuzhi holds a grudge about. Is it the torture during CSZ's prison sentence (I suspect not), or is it that the Regent took Nianzhi's doll (iirc? please correct me if I'm wrong)? Or is it just his epic corruption and mismanagement of Dixing? Anyway, I bet it's something to do with Nianzhi as far as Chu Shuzhi's concerned, and the fact that the Regent arrived with soft, hapless Changcheng is an extra trigger. Ooh, maybe that was the Regent's plan all along (assuming he knows that Chu Shuzhi is Changcheng's mentor; would he know that?). - All great thoughts here :D I do think it's Nianzhi's doll and to a lesser degree the mismanagement of Dixing. AND YES to him arriving with Changcheng. Just like: HOW DARE YOU. The Regent was just rubbing his face in it. I do think the Regent knows more than he's letting on in regards to knowing Chu Shuzhi and Guo Changcheng are mentor/mentee. I feel like he has little spies everywhere!
The Regent is so smug, he deserves ALL the choking! ;-p - 100% agree LOLOL.
Ahhhh, great catch (ha!)! I never noticed that before. And I love how Zhao Yunlan isn't the least bit physically intimidated by furious Chu Shuzhi -- he just strides right in and shoves him away without a second thought. I wonder if that would have been the case in episode 1... - Oh you are so right about Zhao Yunlan not being afraid. I mean I did realize that on some level but having it pointed out makes me really see how ZYL isn't afraid of CSZ at all :D
I think it's shock that Zhao Yunlan is taking the Regent's side? Like, Chu Shuzhi has come to consider himself one of the team, and this is his mortal enemy, but here's Zhao Yunlan, his chief, scolding him in front of that villain, giving the Regent that satisfaction. How is this happening? How dare?!?! (I wonder if this haunts his nightmares. /o\) - Oh oh my heart for that first line of yours about him now considering himself part of the team. MY HEART. It would only be worse if it had been HPS scolding him XD
Hee! The one that immediately comes to mind is in Zhao Yunlan's vision of the zero-degree lab where Chu Shuzhi starts choking Zhao Yunlan and calling him a murderer. But I really love the posturing between Chu Shuzhi and Ye Huo when they first meet in the fight club, too. - OH that is such a good moment!! I remember being like: OMG Chu Shuzhi!!! Such feralness!!
And squee I'm so glad you liked the post and thank you for a lovely lovely comment!! :heartheartheart:
