otp moodboards: sima jiao & liao ting yan; when destiny brings the demon (2025)

“The demon realm is a place where only the strong are respected.”

How nice was it though, just to see the backyard again? I said backyard, even though it's not. Trying to be nice to you guys. But how, I mean... -Will

Oh, just Feeny again. -Rider 

That's what I mean. It's been coming out the door and yes. -Will 

But I mean, he hasn't been in an episode for like three or four, I think. -Rider 

Cory starts doing the jig and Shawn eventually sighs in defeat and.... -Danielle 

The boys grab each other and start jumping up and down screaming. Yay. But reality hit Shawn. Wait, I can't do this. I've got a life here, Corey. He gets serious. I can't just pack up and leave. I've got a mother and a father and a girlfriend and a good job and... -Danielle

Pretty funny the way they did it though. Just the way you read it. -Will 

I do have a brother. Multiple brothers. -Rider 

One of them is in the room. -Will 

Yeah. I'm just ignoring that. -Rider 

Yeah, that doesn't matter. You're also apparently like everybody else, dropping out of college. That's it. Shawn’s just dropping out of college. -Will 

No one says I can't leave. I have a year left of school. -Danielle

Of classes. Yeah. -Rider

I kind of need to graduate. Something. No. Everybody's just bailing. -Will 

Because it was never implied that Topanga... It was always that she chose to stay with Cory because she was choosing a married life over her own independent success and that that was a good sacrifice that she wanted to make. Now it's implied, oh no, she was actually just scared to be on her own, which is a little weird. -Rider 

And then we're back in the Matthews kitchen. Eric sees his old pal, Jack. Well, I'm going to New York. Jack smiles, good. -Danielle

Jesus. “Good!.” Oh, man. -Will.
