despite literally everything i think a universal binghe thing is that he gets bullied as a teen. like as soon as sqq gets it to stop on qjp BAI ZHAN? GETS IN ON IT? i think the teen bullying is inescapable
oh sure! i think realistically lbh can succeed on any peak, bc he’s hard working and adaptable. but from what we see of lqg and yyx, there’s a love for the fight and fighting *itself* and it’s something they actively seek out. this seems to be true of the bai zhan peak philosophy
luo binghe fights out of necessity and survival. he fights to get what he wants when fighting is required, but we know from bingge that if he can get what he wants thru other methods, he’ll also take those.
in my opinion, especially by the extras, if lbh never had to fight again, if he could just have a peaceful life? he’d take that, no questions asked. it’s just that he has to be the strongest and the most powerful to achieve that peaceful life (and other goals eg sqq revival)
HAHA. actually i was trying to figure out what kind of teacher qqq is and how she’d feel about bullying. would she care?? i think she’d have lines about it, like no endangerment or threatening someone’s cultivation. she’s not a coddler tho. i can see her telling lbh to bully them back lmao
but yeah I think qqq outperforms many cqms teachers in terms of "nobody seriously gets hurt" while still having a "kids need to toughen up" attitude in terms of . emotional development etc
this is all very interesting but I'm still transfixed by how lbh getting hit with the carrie treatment perfectly fits into the bingjie/bingmei enforced femininity/butch freedom dichotomy
