Maybe i am too woke but I'm actually glad birth rates are declining.
Not because children are a burden,but because more people are finally realising they're not fit to be parents and that's a far kinder decision than bringing a child into a life they're not prepared for.
Side characters cannot exist anymore every single story must have an ensemble cast and if my DefinitelyNotSideCharacter doesn’t get enough screentime and a full character arc then it’s BAD WRITING!
No offense to OP. But I think what annoys me the most about lg fans is that yall only ever talk about his trauma. Yes, it plays a big role into why he acts the way he does but yall make it his whole personality. You define him by his trauma and it’s honestly become so unbearable that I almost don’t care anymore to hear it.
He’s been through this ! He’s been through that! Yeah well, so has everyone else except for QL who appears to be the only normal child to have grown up well enough to be the rock for these two boys. Which in itself can be traumatic cuz it really shouldn’t be her job.
What is so annoying about the lg takes is that yall have boundless empathy for him but for everyone else is like ‘how dare they not understand Lu guangs trauma’ when 1. They’ve got their own and 2. LGs trauma is really only known to lg. yall ask for sympathy and understanding from cxs in literally all the wrong times.
Yes his trauma might be the reason why he is closed off, why he doesn’t open up, his secrets he keeps the keep from being able to really be honest but those are also his choices. People can only help so far and if he isn’t willing to budge then there’s not much else anyone can do. I do hope as we progress he starts to let go of that control and be honest so his friends can finally be allowed to help but they haven’t been right now. Cheng xiaoshi has reached out multiple times. Lg not getting comfort isn’t something we think he doesn’t deserve. We’re all waiting just like cxs is. We’re all waiting to be let in, but we DO have to be let in. It’s gotta be his choice.
Lu guang is more than his trauma. Yall turn a brilliant, morally grey character who is just trying to hang onto happiness a little longer so boring when all you talk about is his trauma. I relate a lot to him, I am also someone who doesn’t like to cry. It makes me feel embarrassed, and weak. I know it’s not true but years of trauma I am still unlearning. We don’t always emote the way cxs does who wears his heart on his sleeve. I understand lg in the way he doesn’t trust easily, he does not see the good in everyone because not everyone can be trusted. I get it more than most cuz I lived a pretty awful life for a long time.
But my years of trauma do not define me. Lg’s trauma should not be the only thing that defines him. He isn’t just this sad little meow meow. This is what annoys a lot us when it comes to the way yall coddle him. He’s not fragile. He’s quite the opposite. I beg yall, please try to look beyond just what he experienced as a child. Beyond losing his best friend. He has his moments, he’s gotten years with cheng xiaoshi and not all that is sad.
