Today's a special episode of "Since when is he like this?"
previously, on SWATLT/SWIHLT: part 4B, part 4A, part 3, part 2, part 1
Yes, we are back to the original title because all of Changyu's behavior is, well, our beloved Changyu (as this post describes her, she is our #1 best girl and that is the only correct description of her).
BUT! It's still a special episode for it is time to start looking at everyone around us. And let me tell you, the shocked pikachu's are aplenty. Because the mushy Marquis can't hide how gooey he is anymore. 😏 Man's a fresh baked cookie when Changyu is in the room.
WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, LET US BEGIN
*clap clap* *room goes dark* * aggressive spotlight appears*
CONTESTANT 1: It's a member of our goose gaggle that has latched onto his big sister, Mr. Jin! And honestly the rest of the goose gaggle too a bit here. 🚨
You may say, Heidi, he didn't find things out this episode. And you are correct. but he senses a vibe. We see that when Changyu is asking around camp for her man. And it continues in their conversation in the evening!
She of course is worried he already passed (and I swear to you his face is like "nooooo way, not that man", and he's RIGHT).
He sensed a vibe when he met Yan Zheng when he tried to 'collect debts' and they got their asses handed to them by some old men, who clearly could NOT do such a thing. and knows that the man is.... something or someone. at the very least, he's just a bad bitch, with a baddie wife.
It's truly to make our girl feel better, BUT, we must acknowledge that they recognize.... this man be different.
They can't even bring themselves to think about talking to him directly or calling him that name to his face! CUZ HE HAS THE MAGICAL MARQUIS AURA.
BECAUSE ITS A SURPRISE RETURN CONTESTANT!!!! MUSHY MARQUIS IS HERE FOR AN EMOTIONAL SHIPS PASSING IN THE NIGHT SCENE 🚨
Also that damn ribbon. girl. I think it's more of a matchmaker than Mrs. Zhao is, lmfao. Director gushing sidebar, I know people have talked about the visual storytelling with blue and yellow (cold/warmth) in the show, and oh my god the light showing up in the tent in his direction had me FERAL.
have I ever told you that the Marquis of Wu'an loves tangerine peel candy from his brave, brilliant, beautiful wife?
The 👏Marquis 👏 of 👏 Wu'an 👏 loves 👏 tangerine 👏 peel 👏 candy 👏 from 👏 his 👏 brave 👏 brilliant👏 beautiful 👏wife 👏
his shift back in shock when he sees changyu's siloette but we see it from CHANGYU'S side of the tent? oh fucking diabolical.
Then she's reaching, he's reaching, I'm crying, and folks walking around the camp are so CONFUSED.
and the light goes out and my man is DEVASTATED.
ALSO HE SNIFFS THE CANDY WRAPPER. SNIFFS. IT. MARQUIS SIR THAT IS... OH MY LORD.
and yearning at the moon. classic yan zheng behavior. but NOT. Marquis behavior.
Okay, we are back our scheduled contestants.
CONTESTANT 2: The only man who could possibly shit talk the Marquis to his face, the silly scholar and go playing fiend, Gongsun Yin 🚨
honestly, man is freaking out the minute he sees Changyu, he knows this is about to get messier than a morning court session. And of course, we have to get back to Changning. A good distraction. I'm surprised the man didn't run like a bat out of hell back to the Marquis.
WHAT IS THAT? A SECOND SURPRISE CONTESTANT? IT'S OUR BABY GIRL CHANGNING! 🚨
our girl must always share updates about big brother and that he did protect her! and saved her! but he got hurt!
Okay back to our scholar.
I gotta hand it to him, bold move to say this in front of Changyu, girl's neck almost got a sprain for how fast she looked at him for this:
And of course we can't tell her where he is because.... *waves hand at the situation* ya know.
Changyu offers to care for wounded soldiers, which we know is going to just, add a bit more of a complication. Man said, I would like to watch this, but I am not a part of this.
BOY THEY ALMOST KISSED. HOW DARE YOU! You lost mushy marquis so fast. But I do agree, no lying, bad marquis behavior.
Contestant 3: Our girl is off trying to run from the confines of the palace and is willing to be anyone but HERSELF, it's the Princess, former fiancée to the Marquis! 🚨
Now all she knows is: 1) Changyu's husband saved her little sister, and 2) that Changyu has been looking for them. Man, this guy sounds really cool!
WAIT? IS THAT A THIRD SURPRISE CONTESTANT? MY GOD IT IS! IT'S THE BLUE RIBBON, THE #1 STAN OF CHANGYU/ZHENG! 🚨🚨
the ribbon is sick of your shit you too and is constantly like "why are you both like this, he/she is RIGHT. THERE."
man grabbed that ribbon so fast. 😏
the way the ribbon moves in the wind like "jfc FINALLY. Sick of your moping about."
Okay back to our Princess
we have reunited and called the physician! yay! and she went to Changyu first instead and. OH BABY.
girl is like WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING AT?
she is FULL ON oh my god what in the hell is happening here
"You know each other?" oh my god this is gold, she is going to sass him to high heaven.
gotta make sure this shit is real because this is like.... straight up the juiciest gossip anyone may learn. in the history Jinzhou!! the Marquis married?? and clearly?? happily married?? NOT HER CALLING HIM A SCAMMER!!!!!!
man is LUCKY she likes Changyu.
Honorable mention to his poor soldiers trying to hide his identity and whispering to themselves "sir why are you like this":
In conclusion, the Marquis of Wu'an and his wife are causing shocked pikachus left and right. But we know the worst is yet to come (episode 27 bb!!!!) and that slap will feel SO. GOOD.
And that is the rest of today's episode of....
"since when are they like this?"
tune in next time for more of these two crazy kids giving everyone else a heart attack. the true marriage of inconvenience.
