Ciro Ferrara & Gianluca Vialli (Cap) : Before & After Vladimir Jugovic’s winning penalty - 22.05.1996
Gianluca Vialli has passed away at the age of 58. Rest in peace Gianluca 🕊️
“I made some progress in composing the music score, and I wanted to share it with you to see how it works.”
the thing is. lwj would have protected and stood by wwx's side even if he didn't love him romantically
like. i often see the order of things switched up. that lwj believes in wwx and stood up against his clan and the world for him because he was in love. no no nonono guys it's the opposite!! lwj is in love with wwx because he believes that wei ying is good, because his pre-conceived notions of him kept getting challenged, because at every corner wwx kept showing how he was actually good, and kindhearted, and capable, and smart
we even see early on how lwj behaves when he's experiencing attraction while he still thinks he shouldn't. lwj is cold and detached, he ignores him, he constantly tries to draw a line between them! we see exactly how that changed after xuanwu cave, and especially after the yiling date
he became infatuated with wei ying against his own judgement, but loving him was a choice. protecting him was a choice. he would have made that decision anyway, even if the feelings weren't there
The causality is really important here. LWJ would not love WWX as he did/does if he did not believe him to be good, and LWJ takes action when he thinks it is the right thing to do, not because he thinks it will help their relationship or simply make things better for WWX.
LWJ very specifically does not let himself use his own wishes and desires as justificaction for how he acts towards WWX. After the Phoenix Mountain kiss (and apparently learning from his parents' example) LWJ seems to change his approach. He is furious with himself for forcing that kiss and while he still tries to change WWX's mind RE demonic cultivation he stops angrily dictating to and insisting on WWX changing in the way he did during the Sunshot Campaign. LWJ mostly staying away from the Burial Mounds is proof of this I think- he really really wants WWX to not be living this life but also ultimately respects WWX's choices and relinquishes the idea that he has the right to force him to take a particular path. I sometimes see this portrayed as a failing on LWJ's part, and that if he really loved WWX he would have followed him or not let him go in the first place. Which is an interesting concept for fic insp but not a fair character read. He doesn't fully understand why WWX is doing what he's doing, and he knows that WWX reacts badly when LWJ attempts to chastise him or tell him what he should be doing- see the meet-up in Yunmeng or the entire of the SSC. But he believes in WWX's goodness and is willing to not prioritise his own feelings and wishes to let WWX follow what he believes is right, so he checks in with WWX the one time and then lets him be, thinking that is what WWX would want.
When WWX is about to be killed and the Wen remnants massacred, that's when LWJ steps in, and I don't think even this desperate acts is rooted simply in love for WWX. Because this isn't just about protecting his love but averting a cruel and horrible injustice. LWJ knows that the pledge conference was wrong, that the Wen siblings had offered themselves up for the safety of the settlement and instead the clans continued to make plans to wipe them out. He has enough belief in WWX to at least question what exactly led to Jin Zixuan's death, and knows that the elderly and children will die if cultivators find the Burial Mounds undefended. He wasn't happy about the situation previously, as shown by him publicly speaking up for WWX, Mianmian and the Wens, but he actually takes action when it is clear to him that something utterly wrong is going to take place if he does not. He protected Mianmian during indoctrination, at great risk to himself and his clan, without any romantic feelings involved and at the very least I don't think it was primarily romantic feelings that prompted him to protect WWX here. I think he just believed it was utterly wrong for things to be playing out this way, and did what he could to try and avert it.
One of the things I love about LWJ as a character is that he uses those 13 years to look at himself and really think about what he considers important in the world, in his life, and his love for WWX of great value to him even when he has no hope of even seeing WWX alive again, never mind it being recipricated. His love is no longer a compulsion against his better judgement (after the initial confusion of teen chaos Wangxian; I think he's accepted it by the time of the Xuanxu Cave at the very latest) his love is something he chooses for himself again and again against the expectations of the world. Because Wei Ying wasn't just brilliant, and dazzling, and gorgeous, he was good and righteous and stood up for their shared values, even when it cost him everything. To restructure the narrative so that LWJ is willing to sacrifice his morals and act on the basis of selfish romantic interest is a JGY in the Guanyin temple tactic and I'm not here for it lol.
Bless the Lord I'm finally moving to London 🙆🏻♀️
WangXian: Loving The Other
"When you love a person, you accept them exactly as they are: the charming with the ugly, the strong with the fearful, the true mixed with the facade, and of course the only way to do that is to accept yourself that way."
The Untamed: WangXian In Love
The Untamed × Wei Wuxian & Lan Wangji In case you ever foolishly forget – I am never not thinking about you.
In this world, people hate me, fear me, rely on me and admire me. Only she’s the one who loves me. She helped me through the difficulties. She helped me recover my love. She would follow me even if she’d stand against the world. And I… I’m full of thorns.
