"I love how beautifully priest has summed up ZYL's character, ahh."

IKR, and how perfectly this is conveyed in the drama! ♡

"Creeeeepy."

*repeats in a fascinated, enthralled voice* xD

"Kind of showing his hand, here. Like drama!Shen Wei stalking the streets of Dragon City warning Zhu Jiu to keep away from ZYL."

I think here his hand has been out in the open for a while (or always?), nothing left to lose.

"So the cape is kind of his portal? Or something? :D"

I figured it was just to hold him extra close so that they could both teleport together, but the cape does weird things in general, so who knows. :D
