  1. Yes, they are hugging, but it's episode 33 and they're almost engaged, so they are allowed.

    My main focus is of the printed pattern on the hanging roomdividers in the background. White flowers on a pastel blue background, almost too delicate to see. I'd call it xianxia Marimekko, if I'd actually liked marimekko. As of now I can only put it on the list of things I'd st... buy if I ever get to Heng Dian World Studios.

  4. Fabric covers for the outside of the wagon! I'll definitely yoink that idea! Especially since blue with red details is A: my favourite colour combination, B: easy to adapt to Swedish 18thC folk art. Nevermind the murder and the "sound eel"* that just happened - this is _important_ stuff!

    (*from context I think it's a _gr_ound eel, but I couldn't get parallell subtitles so we'll have to wait for confirmation)

  7. CW: Teef (Burning Flames)

    Even by the standards of C-drama land this is _slightly_ OTT. I truly enjoy it. But the actors who's gotten the Eeeevul roles seem to have the time of their lives! You can almost see them giggling internally as they slosh on the slime.

    (*Looks at the cane* That one's really pretty! I wonder if I should DIY..
    ...
    Naaah! I actually want something on the Good Side.)

  10. This tragic scene has gone on forever, so let's distract ourselves with a deep and philosophical question:

    Are those hallberds or battle scythes?

    They look like someone taped two knives to a spear shaft in an angle, because that's basically what they are. I've seen the historical original, and I can for the life of me not rember what the Anglical world has settled for.

  13. Maybe not the point of this fighting scene, but I love Hei Long's* nail polish! He should add some rainbow glitter to give it depth and it'll be perfect.

    (*Eeeeeevul character, in case you're wondering)

  16. Colours play a large role in Fate Choses You, and that means...

    *notices the lamp to the left*

    *starts pondering different ways a DIY version would project light*

    *briefly wonders how the lamp is related to palace lanterns*

    *forces herself back on track*

    ...that the production put a lot of thought in how it uses colours. Note the yellow/brown/green/blue palette here. Bright, yet neither childish nor garish. A+!

  19. Those bowls would have been a hit in 1950s Sweden, just sayin'. Kockums factory made enamel ware in two colour combinations; white with blue accents, and cream with green accents. While the bowls on screen are China made, they _are_ cream coloured, and that version was like catnip to...

    *cough*

    ...maybe we should return to the adventure? I'm sure embroideries will show up soon.

  22. Dang it! I keep getting distracted during this scene by automatically converting li to kilometers and then into Swedish miles! 😅 (The reason being I understand vastness through Swedish miles.) For anyone who want to try; 1 li ~0.5km, 1 Swedish mile = 10km.

    (The subtitle says "a month and a half to fly 6,000 li.)

  28. C-drama: This. Is. Poignant!

    Me: Yes, I see that random piece of cloth, yes.

    (I've amused myself by trying to figure out how to weave that pattern, but on closer thought I think it's supposed to look comb marble dyed. The latter would be quite a feat considering how large it is. OTH it would explain why it's out on its own on a dark night like this.)

  31. "Yes, yes he's brave, but how is that log cabin constructed? They've put some grout in the gaps, I see... could be some more actually, but they haven't knotted the corners like a Swedish timberer would do. Hm, maybe the set builders at Heng Dian World Studios should do a field trip to Skansen? Of course, China probably has log cabins at home, but just for the fun of it..."

  35. CW: Funeral pyre (A Moment But Forever toot)

    So help me, I'm _still_ writing an academic essay when rituals show up. This time I'm trying to sort out what's invented for the story and what's actual habits. Also I'm speculating about what a Viking* would say about the pyre ('You've stacked the wood wrong - you need more airflow!' probably), At least I get use for my education...

    (*Cremation funerals were common in Viking Age Sweden)

  39. Not a bad idea for a bathroom! There's a lot of surface area for towels, and the screens can double as clothes hangers. My problem would be to bring the livingroom up to wet room codes and redraw the plumbing. I'll probably change the greenery from pines to spiderplants and moss though - they behave better indoors.

  43. On one hand; I've always thought it looks weird when someone in Sweden _fills_ their home with things from China (or any other country/culture). Having things as part of the mix is one thing - but letting it be dominant... naah.

    OTH: I wonder if I can find similar dragons at Alibaba?

    Interesting recipe. Normally meat is ground before stuffed into casing, and if you dry the tongue you'll end up with Dried Tongue. Liu may be aiming for a _small_ dried sausage. Or maybe he'll mix the meat with other stuff - I know 100% meat is...

    You know, if I go on we'll head straight into inuendo land. I'm already hearing the pitter patter of the kinky side of mastodon.
