Tumblr Post: And I thought the world / was about this leaving

[mumblemumble]

The first thing I made in this shiny new fandom, and it's just unabashed AGONY. \o/ (A million thanks to kernezelda who screencapped the entire show, in HD, frame by frame, and then shared it all! OMG!)

Actually, the first idea I had for a photo set was this poem, specifically this part of it:

Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole
Sky

I KNOW, I KNOW. But I thought it would have been perfect for ZYL's sacrifice, with the Dixingren dancing under their newly blue sky in the last pic. So I finally googled the thing and yes, it's not actually by Persian poet Hafiz, but by some shady American dude who said Hafiz spoke to him in a dream. Uh-huh. Anyway, TIL!

Awwwww! Poor Shen Wei!!!

My angst meter is definitely calibrated wrong, because the first thing this made me think of was that ring Lin Jing made for Sha Ya. LOL!

His FACE! His EYES! The absolute anguish in his scream! The poor darling boy. :(((((

(Oh, lol, that didn't even occur to me! Sorry Lin Jing, I did not fully get your love story, but good for you! (Except I guess your girlfriend is dead, so that's not so great.))

*pets him* I live in a land of multiple overlapping fix-its, so as far as I'm concerned, he gets his happy ever after in the end, even if it's a loooooooooong wait. *pets him more*

Ha, I didn't really get it either, especially 'cause she says she's not into him in that way (I have a habit of believing people when they say that), but fandom has somewhat swayed me since then... (actually my preferred pairing there would be Zhu Hong/Sha Ya/Lin Jing, but I don't know if anyone's ever written it...)

Oh of course, only happy endings here! But baby Shen Wei doesn't know that yet. *pets him also*

Zhu Hong/Sha Ya/Lin Jing is definitely not a pairing I would have considered before, but what an interesting idea. :-D Zhu Hong definitely needs someone, maybe two someones, to help her get over ZYL!

*pets him too, in all his anguish*

Zhu Hong definitely needs someone, maybe two someones, to help her get over ZYL!

Yes, exactly! :D

Hi there! SIGH, that moment. Poor bb Shen Wei ;_;

I went to kernezelda's DW, but I didn't see any Guardian tags - I'd love to see the screencaps if they're available somewhere!

Hello! :-D You can pinpoint the exact moment his heart breaks! OH NO.

And oops, I should have put the link in the post, but I was like, well I'm two years late with Starbucks, surely everyone already knows about this. *hands* Here's the master post with all the links! Amazingness!

IT'S TRUE :sobs:

Aah thank you for the link! I may have seen it before and blanked on it, but this time I will bookmark, and then also actually download...
