Ever since bridon ep 1 came out I've really been thinking about that first scene and the hour timeskip where Lu Guang is bleeding (presumably from a bullet wound from vein) afterwards and struggling to stand up. Cause like, was he about to die?
I think it makes a lot more sense for him to completely abandon all his previously set up morals if he's actively bleeding out, knowing he has to go back immediately because he'll die if he waits to act any longer.
It's also just a lot more desperate of a situation and. honestly. it's spicier for the angst potential. I love Lu Guang needing to fear for his own life right after losing his two best friends.
I know this mighttttt not fit in with the newest nightmare he had in ep 4 which was so heavy survivors guilt coded it made me want to hurl but. I don't trust Lu Guang. Or whatever the fuck goes on in his mind. And nightmares don't necessarily need to be accurate they just need to be scary (def succeeding in that btw tone it the FUCK down.)
Although, considering the sirens near the end of that clip where he goes back, maybe he thought he might be saved and was scared by the possibility that he could survive? Maybe the hypothetical that he might've survived everything when the others didn't is what's haunting him. Or maybe the dream just manifested like that because he was both the last of them to die and also Cheng Xiaoshi literally gave his life to protect Lu Guang's.
There's a lot of ways I can spin this and none of them are good, I just really like the idea of him being like welp my friends are dead I'm gonna die fuck it destroys the universe.
