The First Jasmine - Mo Xuiyao

Because Tumblr is American-dominated, I get to be annoying about being from Brazil : ) so everybody remembers other countries exist

susie-dreemurr

da-janela-lateral: O tumblr é muito estadunidense, então eu posso ser chata sobre ser do Brasil :) pra todo mundo lembrar que outros países existem.

#spent like ten minutes talking about brazil today and it's not even 9 am :)#sometimes I worry that I'm too annoying abt brazil and then I realize that's stupid #I should talk more about brazil actually just drop it into casual conversation

“Dianxia is wangfei StEaLiNg a TrEe!?”

THIS SCENE IS INSANE AAAAAA

pls drama, don't disappoint me, pls!

(I am worried it's on youku because what, are they also gonna make it 24 eps or something insane? Unless you are GJM or whoever made Vendetta of An, that would an impossible task. But that cast is so stacked with solid actors, I can't imagine it as a disaster....)

But also, cannot wait to have another entrant in "monster in love and it's a tragedy" endangered species category of dramas a la The King's Woman and GMP.

#okay this looks awesome for a number of reasons but especially the colors??#the way everything is grey and muted except for her???#incredible #sea of no return #(at least this one isn't going to assault us with insanity-inducing amounts of red)

#zhou qi???#oh wow I am excited #sea of no return

The trailer for Sea of No Return is so so so grim and gorgeous!!!!!

#oh wow #pls be good #sea of no return

Well I don't play the flute so I'm hardly an expert. But I remember when my sister was learning she had to spend a few weeks just learning how to breathe correctly. Ye Ying is going to need a LOT more patience if she wants to impress her husband.

Episode 7 has been my favourite so far.

There have been hints that we've seen so far that something is not right with Ye Li. The bit with the monkeys at in the first episode, the girl that only Ye Li can see (whom at first I thought might be a ghost but now I am thinking it's just an hallucination), and the fact that no one seems to have communicated with anyone on the mountain except for Ye Li. Basically, WTF happened on that mountain?!?!

It's definitely the first time that Mo Xiuyao realizes that is something very wrong with Ye Li, despite her sunny disposition. When she runs to him, he hugs her back with almost no hesitation. He does not question her but has the mansion searched twice for her, and then has guards stay on high alert for her. He stays with her when she asks so she can sleep. He gets rid of all the monkey handlers in the city, just so she won't be afraid and he compensates them well enough that they are okay with leaving. He's basically already in love with her.

More importantly, it shows that he's going to help her slay her demons, just as she's already started to help him.

I suspect one of the reasons he may not have tried to get more treatment on his leg is because he is punishing himself. I am curious when she does start treating his leg, will he hide his recovery from everyone else to have a dramatic standing up from his wheelchair moment?

People in FL's family that I like:

Baby cousin

Clearly underestimated by his family for being a kid, but smart enough to realize that they're treating her like shit and to decide to help her out regardless of what they say.

Third uncle

I can already tell that this is the shit little brother of the three and I can't wait to see what headaches he is going to cause for his spineless older brothers.

Grandma

Came in, made everyone uncomfortable in about thirty seconds, and was promptly silenced. Bring her back. I'm sure she could make the situation even more uncomfortable given the opportunity.

People in FL's family that I don't like: everybody else.

And another thing about point of view in this story is who tells us which parts of the events that happened in the past. Because when Ye Li tells us about their first meeting, she tells us about Mo Xiuyao saving her from the bandits. But when Mo Xiuyao tells us about their first meeting, he tells us about the pastries and how they saved his life. And I think its interesting how they both see each other as saviors. Even in the present, Ye Li says that Mo Xiuyao saved her from Lishan, and Mo Xiuyao shows us how Ye Li is saving him from his own darkness.

#the first jasmine #mo li #ye li #mo xiuyao

Another thing I really like is how this show has been playing with point of view and perspective, and specifically how that affects characterization. The first few episodes we get are from Ye Li's perspective, so all the characters, including her, are seen from her perspective. And the Ye Li that we get in those episodes has a few hints of her eccentricities but these are mostly a mask for her schemes, and she is more practical and no-nonsense than anything else. Mo Xiuyao on the other hand is shut off, and his anger is heavily emphasized. But then we switch to his point of view and we see that that anger is also mostly a mask for his own schemes and he starts to feel more like a person. Ye Li, on the other hand starts to become colored by his amazement at her, and we get to see her eccentricities highlighted.

And this is all done so subtly. Like how Ye Li tells Qingshuang that they'll plant things, and then later we see her maids questioning whether they'll actually grow, but it's not until Mo Xiuyao is telling his version of events that the camera shows that she's actually planted rocks. Or how we get indications that Qingshuang isn't real, but Mo Xiuyao is the one who actually first shows us Ye Li talking to herself. Or the scene of Ye Li barging in to Mo Xiuyao's study, which becomes much less scary when we know that he wasn't at the wedding because he was sneaking off on a secret mission.

And that's going to be the crux of their romance I think, that they both reveal parts of each other that were previously hidden. And the more they get to know each other and understand each other the less pronounced this discrepancy between their characters in each other's point of view will become.

She just burned a man to death. And she did it so quietly without ever even showing her face to the man.

I have no choice but to stan.

I really appreciate how so far her scheming hasn't been over-the-top dramatic like how idol dramas usually do it. She's lowkey and quiet with her schemes and that makes her more dangerous than if she was a loud, on-your-face "schemer" FL who makes grand speeches about justice and whatnot.

#the mark of every one of her schemes so far is that no one knows she was involved #and that makes her very smart and very dangerous #the first jasmine #ye li

I like this uncle😂 He brings a hateful sarcastic vibe to the function that his family doesn't like, which is fine because I have a feeling he doesn't like the family either.

#third uncle is the only one in this awful family that I respect #the first jasmine
