top 10 the untamed characters based on how much theyve played third wheel to wangxian
the scene where they show up in the burial mounds and start to untie the juniors, but instead of explaining whats happening wwx just hands wn his sword and watches w lwj? all three of them were completely in synch, not a word was said, but they fucking knew anf they were having way too much fun w it
literally the whole reason he has consiousness is bc they teamed up
its aro week and i wanna take this second to say that this is a win for my ace aro wen ning & qp wn&wwx and wn&lwj agenda
three-way parenting for lsz
(god can you imagine if wq lived? theyd be too powerful)
was one of the first ppl to hear wuji outside of wwx and lwj
the boat scene????? wwx and lwj were gazing lovingly into each others eyes and wn was just. vibing. dude didnt even look that uncomfortable, just like it was another day im-
literally every scene wen ning was in after wwx came back to life tbh
2. the xuanwu of slaughter
they were literally cradling each other in their arms while an entire murder tortoise was trying to kill them
the telepathy talisman? iconic, why dont we talk about that more
life threatening battles are just hella gay by design, esp when theres swords involved. idk what to tell you
just look at his name. lwj named him that unironically. holy shit.
the temporary parallel universe that was lwjs visit to the burial mounds? what we couldve had smh
i know lwj and wwx lovingly annoy the shit out of him post canon, bless his heart
the bit on dafan mountain where he's like "oh fuck thats dangerous i dont want to run out of here" and wwx and lwj make eye contact and then are just like "thats rough buddy. anyway, lets do it"
"oh wow this adventure we're on is so cool" "we? this is about me and lan zhan, what the fuck are you talking about"
when they see him right after they fuck up the nie tomb and theyre lowkey just bullying him
the scene at the end where wwx confronts nhs while lwj just watches knowingly? theyre once again bullying the poor man
he gets extra points for orchestrating everythig. dude really said "oh jgy thinks he's funny? well wwx and lwj are about to be completely fucking hilarious" and then just sat back and watched shit go down w occasional commentary. king shit
when they come back to cloud recesses after mxy!wwx's reveal and theyre like "the dude whos kinda debatably the love of your life is the real evil here" and he just has to deal w that
ok it felt weird putting him this low on the list but like. he and jc were mostly emotionally third wheeling??????? like he wasnt in a ton of scenes w just him and the two of them, but he had to cope w lwjs pining all the time
really should be lower on this list but he has extra points bc again, i cant believe they let lwj and wwx name things
the part where theyve p much Just been reunited and they immediately have to go break him out of the nie tombs? dude wasnt even concious but i feel like it still counts
i feel like he shouldve been higher on this list too, but im not listing everyone and again he just doesnt have scenes w just the two of them
however he def had to deal w so much pining. the reunion on dafan mountain AND the reuinion during the sunshot campaign. the golden core reveal. the 3 months of him and lwj searching for wwx alone
technically no scenes w just them but like. the bullshit they got up to undoubtedly lived in his brain rent free. theres no way he had any peace
honorary mention for stuff from the novel like the guanyin temple confession
these dudes are everywhere and they will make it everyone elses problem
the skywalkers of fantasy ancient china
post canon discussion conferences? the water abyss or whatever in caiyi? the sunshot campaign? the murder of the cuanwu of slaughter, which helped kick off the sunshot campaign? nightless city pt 1 AND 2? the going-ons of literally every chief cultivator? that was all them babe
honorary mentions include: lil apple, lan jingyi&ouyang zizhen, wen qing, jiang yanli, the ghosts of cangse sanren&wei changse (and prob madame lans ghost as wel tbh), su she (ty @ghostysword for reminding me- i totally forgot about him) and everyone whos seen the show
