Oh why why why can't Hu Ge's 'present day' character be 1/10th as amazing as his past life one?

[dangermousie]

I mean, present day character is funny and likeable and looks like Hu Ge :P but he's fulfilling a role normally given to a comic sidekick. Wallace Huo's super-competent, super-honorable, extremely deadly warrior monk is a lot more the hero type. I can't wait for a ton of angst to drop on Hu Ge's character so we can finally see the hidden awesome within.

As mookiehyun once commented "He's hottest when he's miserable and angsting, he's cute when he's smiling but his face is created to angst and be miserable and thus makes us lose panties."

Indeed.



Crown Prince of Jiang? MMMMMMMMMMMMM. OMG. I want a whole drama about him, and while we are at it, please make Liu Shi Shi his wife instead of his sister, because seriously, that is NOT a sibling relationship - not when she tells him she cannot be parted from him and cross-dresses to join his army and compares them to their father and mother.



This scene, where he is doing things with banners with bells on them so his dying mother would believe these were victory bells got me close to tears.





And now he's with this flag in battle.



Here for the hotness.



With his sister. Seriously, no siblings act like that.





Or how about this??????!!!!!











Reunion after a year-long separation due to war. Tell me this doesn't play as swoonily romantic.















She's so beautiful:



But I think Wallace Huo's OTP in this is even more so:





I mean, I don't know, I am an only child, so maybe this is normal sibling behavior but I think not. I know they couldn't make LSS his OTP from the past life because that would really throw his present-day romance with Yang Mi out of whack, but I wish they figured out how to do so because it would make so much more sense.

ETA: Mmmmmmmm:
