Reunion: The Sound of Providence Live Blog [Episode 1]
So while I battle with an irritating bout of upper respiratory infection, I jumped back into DMBJ. (What a shock).
Now, as some of you may be aware, I did plan to put Reunion: Sound of Providence as my immediate next DMBJ series, but, after some advice from commenters, I did watch the first episode of ‘Adventure Behind the Bronze Door’ to bridge some of the story after Ultimate Note.
And, I’m sorry, if I’m interpreting the story correctly - Zhang Qiling took Wu Xie’s place to guard some hellhole for ten years and Wu Xie decided to wait ten years of his very much mortal life for the guy to come back??? I mean, it’s very much one thing for an immortal character to wait for a loved one, it’s quite another game again for someone with a natural lifespan to do the same. Did Wu Xie know that Zhang Qiling was essentially ageless at that point???
Because if he did, that’s an insane love story and even if he didn’t that’s still incredibly gut wrenching.
Anywho the bingo card is back lads because of course it is but I’m also semi prepared to get walloped in the feelings because Wu Xie is now older and I’m feeling very angsty about the fact that only one half of this ship is immortal.
But I’m super excited for this series because of Zhu Yilong - who absolutely killed it as Shen Wei in Guardian and who is already half of one of my beloved ships (Weilan) while I know Huang Junjie from The Spirealm. I have very mixed feelings on that show so I’m really excited to see him in something else and maybe get a fresh perspective on him.
Anyway, enough preamble, here we go!
The third brand of Wu Sanxing has dropped and he’s traumatizing the children but he seems more likable than the Time Raiders version. So far every single version of this man has been different. Here he’s (so far) coming across as borderline fatherly while in Time Raiders he was a puncheable dick and in Ultimate Note he was an irritating deadbeat but kind of funny in a pathetic way. I’m very curious to know what he comes across as in the books because there’s such variation in his portrayal. I know some of it can probably be explained away with the twin-thing and Xie Lianhuan but all three versions have been SO different that I’d be fascinated to know what he’s like in the source material to get such a wide range of actor interpretations.
Well, I suppose some things stay the same - even when Wu Sanxing isn’t here he’s causing problems. Also, I’m hella interested to see what Zhu Yilong’s older Wu Xie is gonna be like.
I’m guessing Wu Xie looks kind of a mess because it’s missing Xiaoge hours?? Also you might as well be X Files all these strange tomb occurrences are because of weird space rocks
As depressing as that may be for you, Wu Xie, I feel it would probably be for the best if he is.
And why aren’t you living with him??? Is it angsty reasons or the censors??? Was there another Pingxie split that I missed? Last time I saw them they were engaged with the sword Wu Xie carved for him. I know there was a ten year separation but I figured they’d be back together after that :(
Is this like Hei Xiazi in Mystery of the Abyss and we’re having angsty separation hours between our main pairings???
Well, they might be older but I don’t think they got that much wiser.
Also, did we learn nothing about messing round with weird green corpse goo from Mystery in the Abyss??? Okay, I realise you two weren’t there for that but I’m sure someone should be aware not to mess with weird green corpse goo.
So now Wu is possibly dying???? I guess we’re starting the bingo card on a fucking depressing note now damn. :( this was meant to be a fun thing but now I’m just bummed. Also, Xiaoge, the reason you aren’t immediately here better be because you’re searching for some sort of cure for your fiance.
Look at my man all cleaned up and off to get his deadbeat uncle. Honestly, I feel like you should drop his ass and go live in the mountains with Xiaoge though.
Well, we learned never to bring Wang Pangzi on a stealth mission.
