"During the rewatch, Trobadora and I joked about getting a diploma in Guardian studies. This feels like that all over again! :D I love digging into the canon in depth with other, ah, lovingly detail-oriented people. ;D <3 <3 <3"
Hee, I think the rewatch is still on a whole other level, but I love that tooooo, and I'm so happy to get to be a part of something similar now. :D :D (Well, technically I was there for the first two (?) posts of the rewatch, with absolutely no idea what I was watching or commenting on. ;D Still eternally grateful because I wouldn't be in this fandom at all without that. :D)
"Ohh, gotcha. Maybe in YOHE?"
In YOHE there would be no callback factor for 'Xiao-Wei', but also idec, YOHE Weilan can do absolutely anything and I'm automatically going to be like :D :D :D
"Hm, except that, as Trobadora pointed out, dried fish are people food too. So maybe Zhu Hong will eat them. (Random fun detail: the original drama subs had this typo: "The presbyters of three races Crow, Flower and Snack" -- which means there are icons floating around of Zhu Hong eating Changcheng snacks during the roadtrip, with a caption something like "Member of the Snack Tribe". :D)"
Lol, I love how this would kind of be an incentive for everyone to win, not just for Da Qing - when the game is finished you get to snack and not just put the chips away. xD :D And heeeeeeeee, I know the subs (that's the version I have) but I've never seen the icons, that's fantastic. :D :D :D My mind went to 'she is a snack', which I guess is also true. xD :D :D
"Haha, true. And even though he doesn't have opposable thumbs! :D"
Ikr, I'm not sure what kind of work he can do, maybe pushing things around or something. :D
"Yeah, I never know how much that's the "cultivation is real, fortune-telling is real" kind of world-building, versus how much it's derived from RL/traditional beliefs, you know? But that's a great find -- thanks for the link! :D"
Yeah, I'm sure some of it is embellished, but also later I saw that further down at the link there is stuff about specific years and areas of life, so that's extremely close to what CSZ was doing with GCC's face. :D
