POLL! :D :D :D (I'm at least partially behind on most posts rn, but POLL. :D ♡♡♡)

I always assumed Wang Zheng picked the herbs herself, but getting them from someone else at the village who knows what they're doing makes even more sense, so I voted for both. :D

ETA: I forgot to say that the assumption that Da Qing has a stash of drugs is hilarious to me. xD :D (Lin Jing on the other hand is obvious. ;D) (Are there any canon implications for either of them? :D)

"the first is YOHE!Shen Wei, obviously"

:D :D I love that it's not even included, to give the other options any chance at all. :D

I read this question and I immediately thought Ying Chun because funny, and then I read the options and I'm also voting GCC (I love the entire introduction an inordinate amount :D) and Zhen Yi because SOFT. ♡♡♡

SID is sid for me, and I'm loving how evenly divided this poll is. :D

*high five*

Yeah, agreed on DQ with the drugs! LJ is just the obvious assumption - though honestly, I could go for WZ herself. She can eat, why shouldn't she be able to take drugs too?

[facethestrange]

"She can eat, why shouldn't she be able to take drugs too?"

Lol, the reason she always looks spaced out? ;D

[trobadora]

Am I misremembering, or did china have a fic with that premise? :D

POLL! :D :D :D

It seems safer, but what excuse did she give when acquiring them? Because she must have needed a lot!

I forgot to say that the assumption that Da Qing has a stash of drugs is hilarious to me. xD :D

Ha! My reasoning was basically: there's no way Da Qing doesn't have a stash of catnip, and if that, why not other things too? After all, he's been wandering Haixing for 10k years. He's probably tried everything under the sun! :D :D :D

[facethestrange]

"It seems safer, but what excuse did she give when acquiring them? Because she must have needed a lot!"

She could theoretically avoid any questions by having enough money, but I don't suspect her (or anyone else at the SID) of that. xD And now I want to know what the potential excuses could be. :D :D

"My reasoning was basically: there's no way Da Qing doesn't have a stash of catnip, and if that, why not other things too? After all, he's been wandering Haixing for 10k years. He's probably tried everything under the sun! :D :D :D"

Hahah, this is FANTASTIC reasoning, very logical, and good for him. :D :D Does catnip work on his human form? Maybe it doesn't, that's why he also needs human drugs. xD

[china_shop]

She could theoretically avoid any questions by having enough money, but I don't suspect her (or anyone else at the SID) of that. xD

And also, it's an isolated village. How much money could the healer use for anything? Maybe she just told the truth: that she was going to do something dangerous, and she wanted to protect her friends...

Does catnip work on his human form? Maybe it doesn't, that's why he also needs human drugs. xD

LOLOL! What human drug can I take to make me roll around on the floor, purring and drooling, and chase any even slightly twitching piece of string? :D :D :D

[tinypinkmouse]

If it doesn't need to be herbs, she could just use like the right kind of over the counter eye drops to knock them out. You could probably get that easily enough online, if they have online pharmacies.

[facethestrange]

Lol, and now I'm looking up eye drops that can knock someone out (and it's not even for fic research, which usually excuses creepy searches xD), today I learned, thanks. :D :D

Hee! That makes sense. Go, Da Qing! :D

[trobadora]

1) I always thought she must have picked herbs, but thinking about it now I'm not sure she had the opportunity? So I'm voting for the online order as well, as an alternative. *g*

2) The half.eaten lollipop, OMG! Which Da Qing then eats without hesitation! :D

3) S.I.D. all the way. :)

ETA: No, it just occurred to me ... it's always S.I.D. to me except in the comm name: sid_guardian is, for some reason, always sid-Guardian to me. :D

[facethestrange]

"it's always S.I.D. to me except in the comm name: sid_guardian is, for some reason, always sid-Guardian to me. :D"

Heee, this is so cool, maybe because it's not capitalized? :D

[trobadora]

Yep, I think that's why! :D

[china_shop]

1) *nodnod* I went for the online order, too. I think she planned it out beforehand -- maybe that's even part of why she was so woebegone in the car? Pre-emptive guilt?

2) Awww! <3

3) Ha, that exception makes a strange kind of sense. g

[trobadora]

Oh, that's a good thought about the pre-emptive guilt! What do you think she was thinking, planning this in advance?

Ha, that exception makes a strange kind of sense.

Hee! :D

[tinypinkmouse]

I never gave much thought to where she got the drugs, but if I had to say then ordering them online beforehand seems most likely. It does mean she had to come prepared. But I don't think she had time to go procure them anywhere else after they already arrived. So unless she did find them in someone's luggage, then very premeditated drugging it is.

I voted on Xiao Guo for the simple reason that I remember that one rather clearly, and I didn't even remember some of the others happened.

It's S.I.D or sid depending on... something. Possibly on context. I think I used to hear the letters spelled out in my head more, but it is definitely leaning a lot more towards sid these days.

[china_shop]

I think so, too, for much the same reason. :-D

Hee! ZYL is so shameless in that one! *hearts him*

I think I used to hear the letters spelled out in my head more, but it is definitely leaning a lot more towards sid these days.

Oh, that's interesting! Just familiarity, do you think?

[tinypinkmouse]

Just familiarity, do you think?

Now I'm laughing at the idea that I don't even adress the SID formally anymore. I've gotten too familiar.

But yeah, probably just seeing it enough and sid seems easier after a while.

[facethestrange]

"I voted on Xiao Guo for the simple reason that I remember that one rather clearly, and I didn't even remember some of the others happened."

That is scene is SO VERY MEMORABLE indeed. :D :D (I don't remember some of these well either, and I don't remember the lab tech scene at all, gonna need to look for it. :D)

[china_shop]

Episode 30, 11:27 -- he's trying to get close enough to read the guy's name tag. :-)

[trobadora]

That's a great point about the premeditated drugging!

It's S.I.D or sid depending on... something. Possibly on context.

LOL! It's funny when that happens and you don't know the rules but there definitely ARE some rules in your subconscious making this decision for you. :D

[maggie33]

Heh, another question I have to admit I’ve never thought about before. But yes, I think she either bought them before leaving Dragon City. Or she made them in the mountains using local herbs.

And aww, lollipop poll. And so many good answers. 😊 But for me Zheng Yi wins this one.

[facethestrange]

Aw, your icon is so soft! And so is the Zheng Yi scene, I voted for it too. :D ♡

[maggie33]

I love Zheng Yi and Tan Xiao, and I love their story arc. So much that I even wrote a little ficlet about it. :) And yes, this is such a sweet, soft scene. That's why I chose it.

[china_shop]

Tbf, I don't think we're supposed to think about it. :-)

Awwww, the Zheng Yi one! <333 ZYL trying so hard to figure out how to comfort an upset kid.
