    Summary

    I'll start by briefly describing how Li Daikun (who played the role of Xie Wang) and Wang Ruolin (who played the role of Zhao Jing) interpreted their characters since in this analysis, I will rely primarily on their interpretations. In the case of Word of Honor, the opinion of the actors is of particular importance, since the director gave them more freedom of action, and the original book differs significantly from the serial adaptation. Links to interviews and other sources are provided at the end of the post.

    Li Daikun and Wang Ruolin deliberately did not discuss with each other in advance how they would play their scenes together - each moved in its own direction to make the dissonance, the misunderstanding between Zhao Jing and Xie Wang more obvious...

    Summary

    But Lan Zhan floats through them like a ghost. Without trying, he has learned to blend in, to make himself forgettable, to embrace the reality of a life unending lived among mortals. He steps where he knows he will leave no footprint.

    And then he comes home. He ventures out into a world that feels more like a fever dream than reality, ever shifting, ever evolving, for the things he and Lan Huan need to survive, but he is only truly awake here. This place does not change.

    Lan Huan does not change.

    He is just as pale as he has always been, just as slender, just as impossibly beautiful. His skin is too pale from thirst and there is a certain gauntness in his face that reminds Lan Zhan he is not well, that Lan Huan’s perpetual state is one of delicacy and fragility.

    But that is why he has Lan Zhan to take care of him. Lan Zhan counts the days so Lan Huan doesn’t have to. He learns how cell phones and computers work so Lan Huan does not have to bother himself. He brings Lan Huan blood so Lan Huan does not have to know where it came from.

    Summary

    A story taking place in an alternate universe, one with secrets yet to be discovered.

    I am in the process of rewriting this fic, there is too much I am not happy about and want to change, so THIS FIC WILL EVENTUALLY BE DELETED, BUT I will reupload a better version once I do.

    Note: I have deleted all comments from march 23rd 2021 due to all the spam I received that day. I don't trust any by me unknown guest comments from that date. If I deleted your comment and you were not the spammer, then I am sorry.
