Sooooo this scene is single-handedly responsible for me going feral for Guardian instead of being a casual watcher

Wow, that's so fascinating! As someone who was EXTRMELY into Shen Wei from much earlier than this, that moment didn't leave nearly this much an impression on me, LOL. So cool to hear about what grabbed you that hard!

I can't say I've ever wondered why the apartment was empty. :D

Haha, same!

Hah, yep, I was very into Zhao Yunlan (and ended up drawing him exactly once a year, clothed and not ;D), but it took me two years to watch up to that point nonetheless. xD And then I did watch it in late November/very early December last year, and now here I am. :D :D :D
