Zhu Hong as Time Lord sounds amazing so I definitely vote for sonic screwdriver.

Heee, all the time-related options make me wonder if she would help with the time loop, or if she wouldn't because she's not a Weilan fan, or maybe she wouldn't just because she forgot. xD

I like to think that she would do it too, yep. :D

AW YAY CUTEST POLL. :D ♡♡♡

For me it's always popcorn and sex doll, and everything to do with welcoming Shen Wei, so it was all easy choices. :D :D Oh, and one other! :D It's not the whole team, but I adore the scene where CSZ wants the video of the Envoy deleted, and Wang Zheng and Zhu Hong giggle about him being a fanboy. xD (Wang Zheng laughing always improves any scene exponentially. :D :D)

(Also, the picspam is all kinds of ADORABLE. ♡♡♡ Where is the last picture from again? :D)

And lol, I giggled at the very nice holy grail, so I'm voting for that. :D :D I hope she DOESN'T have a troublesome gold ring. xD

"Ha, I was sure the popcorn would be a shoo-in, but apparently not (at this stage, anyway)."

People really like the Shen Wei options (I am people :D :D), but popcorn is doing pretty great too. :D

"I did a scene discussion post for that. /usual disclaimer, no obligation :D"

Thaaaaaank you, THESE POSTS = ♡♡♡! *giggles at "Lin Jing, being corporeal"* :D

"The last pic is from ep 15, 34:00ish, when they're strategising about how to fool the special commissioner coming to inspect them (who they don't yet know is Zhao Xinci)."

Yay, thank you! :D :D Now that I rewatched it, I'm voting for this scene for "other" too. :D

"Though I imagine the SID would deal with a troublesome gold ring pretty promptly. They know where there's a volcano. ;-D"

LOLOLOL! ♡ Is a regular non-evil volcano enough, or is this one an evil volcano? ;D

Hey, if they have space travel (do they even still have that canonically, or just in the past?), someone could yeet the ring into the vacuum. xD Sure, it's not destroyed, but good luck getting it back. xD

The popcorn is such fun! But no CSZ and no SW, so I think that explains why it's not winning.
trobadora: (Chu Shuzhi - done with this)

[personal profile] trobadora 2025-06-12 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh yeah, the video-deleting scene is so good! ♥ ♥ ♥
trobadora: (Guardian - SID team)

[personal profile] trobadora 2025-06-12 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't have a clear favourite. What I voted for:

The popcorn. Excellent scene, great dramatic flair for Lin Jing, ZYL jumping on the table and Da Qing being very cat, but points off for Lao-Chu not being there. *g*

The team dinner to welcome SW as consultant - great scene, ZYL and DQ sitting on the table, entire SID, bonus SW! Also, Lin Jing eating the same bite of food twice. *g*

Reunion dinner: cheating a bit, because this one is so delightful mainly because of SW and ZYL poking fun at each other, but also everyone's reaction is delightful, and there's the food, and everything. I just love it.

Greeting the Envoy - I voted for that mainly because it's such a tantalising moment hinting at what happened in between, Zhu Hong telling the team. Maybe that should have been "other" instead, for the unseen scene where they all react to what she tells them! But close enough. *g*

And my actual "other" vote was for the scene where they're reuniting in the street in episode 36, because at that point it's so good to see them all (well, everyone currently alive) come together again! ♥ ♥ ♥

As for Zhu Hong, what if the thing she's forgotten she has somewhere is some old Snake heirloom that unbeknownst to her comes from Fu You and happens to be a spare wick of the Guardian Lantern that Ma Gui made after that ominous cross-temporal skype sessions with ZYL?

AWW, HANDPILE. *sniffles* They're doing amazing and I love them all. ♡♡♡

Hee! This makes me intrigued about the rest of your points system. ;-)

LOL! It's entirely vibes-based. *g*

We do get the very start of that scene...

Which is NOT ENOUGH! So sad we didn't get more!

YES, PLEASE!! (Ha, it's a shame the Sacred Wood wouldn't fit in the Guardian Lantern...)

You know, the Hallows can change size - at least the Sundial does once - so why not??? :D

Yayyy all the Shen Wei options. :D :D ♡ And popcorn! :D

Zhao Yunlan sitting on the table instantly makes any scene even better indeed, lol. :D

"Also, Lin Jing eating the same bite of food twice. *g*"

Omg lol what, now I obviously had to rewatch, this is so funny. :D :D :D

"Reunion dinner: cheating a bit, because this one is so delightful mainly because of SW and ZYL poking fun at each other, but also everyone's reaction is delightful, and there's the food, and everything. I just love it."

I just rewatched it yesterday and Da Qing defiantly stuffing his face is so weirdly endearing and adorable, lol, and Sang Zan and Wang Zheng feeding each other, and GCC going 'awww, FAMILY'. :D Add the Weilan cuteness, and I'm not at all surprised it's winning right now. :D ♡

"As for Zhu Hong, what if the thing she's forgotten she has somewhere is some old Snake heirloom that unbeknownst to her comes from Fu You and happens to be a spare wick of the Guardian Lantern that Ma Gui made after that ominous cross-temporal skype sessions with ZYL?"

Ahhhhhh, YES PLEASE?? ♡ :D

Omg lol what, now I obviously had to rewatch, this is so funny. :D :D :D

I notice it EVERY TIME. Can't unsee! *g*

Da Qing defiantly stuffing his face is so weirdly endearing and adorable

Yes! That's my favourite non-Weilan bit. :D

Ahhhhhh, YES PLEASE?? ♡ :D

:D :D :D

"ZYL on tables, YES PLEASE! :D :D :D"

Always!! :D ♡♡♡

"My only issue with the reunion festival dinner is how white all the food is. Is that normal for a feast? /shallow"

I... have no idea what this means? xD Like, in color or does it stand for something? (I have never before considered the color of any food apparently. :D)
