Sooooo, I have piqued a friends interest in watching CQL. She's started watching just now!

Let's see how it goes

Friend who's starting to watch CQL: *sends a screenshot of WangXian reunion with tons of hearts*

Me: SEEEEEEE???

Friend: I wonder who's the top

Me: should I tell you?

Friend: yes. I'm confused, tell me.

Of course y'all know who it is...

Friend: send manga refs, I need to feel the top energy (she sees YB as top too, but he's too in love atm to feel the domineering vibes)

Me: *sends manhua, donghua, live action*

Friend: *heart reacts everywhere*
Sighs
Sighs
Damn it
Kill me now
I am quacking in my seat

Me: welcome to this side

Friend: it's darker here, but I like it

Me: it's been 9 months since I started this show, I even came to the point of being invested in the 2 actors love life. Stick to WangXian.

Friend: now that you've warned me, I'll dig deeper

P.S, she's a fujoshi soooo

she's pretty much on board hahaha

Btw, she currently stopped watching just now coz her team leader was calling her hahaha! She took a 2hr lunch break to watch CQL

SHE'S ASKING FOR BJYX AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Me: *le explains about GGDD individually while slipping in some cp facts, coz we slick like that

then gradually giving more cp informations*

She got confused with the names so I gave her the differences between Given Name, Courtesy Name, and Title Name

Also gave her brief introductions of WangXian w/ pictures.

Friend: he has the cutest smile

Me: ikr, who can resist? Certainly not WYB

Friend: yes siz, we stan a boy in love

Me: that's one of the deciding factors why he got WWX's role (GG's smile)

Me: You know, he actually audition for the antagonist role.

Friend: no way, really? But yeah, he does give off the villain vibe. I can see it.

Me: just wait for the show to progress

Friend:

OMG!!!

Friend: my mom keeps wondering why I keep screaming

I cannot contain the 'kilig'

Friend: I feel the lesbian vibes on Wen Qing

Friend: the headband is for significant others only right?

Me: they basically married now

Friend: but

I thought they give more emphasis on it coz they've been building it up, but they completely went to a different scene

Me: get used to it, they love doing that

Friend:

The Culprit The Victim

She's already making memes for the fandom

Friend: I was surprised he was already in WWX's bed

Friend: I also have another ship

Me: I think I already who

Friend: the brother (LXC) and the one who was with the guy with the fan (JGY). I already feel the vibe and chemistry

Me: *internally screaming coz this ship is a disaster in the making but I can't say anything*

Friend: I can't even keep up with the plot, the ships are distracting. I can't even finish an EP since I keep getting 'kilig' (intense excitement) from these two. I think I'll die

Friend: sighs... DAMN THESE GAYS

She's full on ready for the BJYX Train, coz I sent her that new BTS, that one where they were doing the waltz

I've been gradually giving her clips and small bjyx anecdotes. But now she's ready. And I went on and gave the full timeline essay. Were in 2018 now during filming.

I just realized, my friend is so lucky coz she gets to see CQL behind the scenes, no holds barred. She gets to see all this sweetness in full glory.

Friend: I'M FVCKING DYING SIS
FAVE EP SO FAR
AGSVDNDKSKABSAJWLEOIF

Me: we call that scene 'Do you like Mian Mian?'

Friend: the look on his face says it all, "it's you that I like, you idiot"

Friend: I LOST MY SHIT WITH THIS ONE

Me: in the novel, manhua, donghua he actually rips it off

Friend: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
MAMA WHY?!?
ARE YOU SERIOUS???
I AM GOING TO DIE!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
JUST BE TOGETHER ALREADY

Friend: I LOST MY SHIT WITH THIS ONEMe: in the novel, manhua, donghua he actually rips it off Friend: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMAMA WHY?!?ARE YOU SERIOUS???I AM GOING TO DIE!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAJUST BE TOGETHER ALREADY

Friend: Sis I'm crying huhu the characters are so adorbs and the actors did soooooooo good in bringing the characters to life. XZ and YB did soooooooo good in portraying Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji. Not being biased or anything. The cast is just so darn good bruh.

Friend: even the actor of Wen Chao

Me: he did his part

THIS IS THE DREAM CAST (except for Qi Pei/Xin tho

)

Friend: I'M CRYING SIS, I'm so emotional, why you do this???

Me: Entertainment Industry around the world, what's stopping you from having a cast like The Untamed?

Friend: True, the directors and writers must've been so hands on with this production. You can feel the genuineness of each character.

Me: You don't see hints of the actors, just the characters they portray

Friend: YES

Me: Live Action Directors and Writers, TAKE NOTES. This is how you respect live actions!

Friend: TRUEEEE AND DON'T EVER GIVE US CRAPPY FILMS/SERIES

Me: even tho the show was low budget and CGIs aren't that great, the acting compensated 10 folds

Friend: True. So so true. I mean I have a lot to say on the production setting, the CGI and the fake blood BUT DUDE THE ACTORS AMAZINGLY DELIVERED LIKE BRO, YOU'LL ONLY NOTICE THE LAPSES IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT A CRITICAL STANDPOINT

(she's a theater kid btw)

Me: this is why this show is still relevant to this day

Friend: And for me to be this in awe with chinese actors when I don't even watch chinese films or even historical drama is like a big thing for me, coz it's really rare for me to like and be amazed by actors in general

Friend: FAM HE'S SINGING OMG
