I am about to restart my watch of Three Kingdoms and I realized I had these caps from the last Lu Bu/Diaochan scene before he got captured and executed and I never posted them because the OTP imploded shortly after this and I didn't feel like looking at my caps. Randomly crying at one's laptop is sort of a sign of insanity. Well, I've had a month to chill since then, so here you go.

Yup, he basicaly gives up his plan of attack and the only way out because he can't bear to leave Diaochan when she's sick. I am a rabid shipper for them but even I can't help but think this is a bit insane.

Indeed. I am both swooning and horrified.

This ends about as well as expected. One of these days I am going to find a Peter Ho drama which is (a) period (b) and has subs (c) and ends happily for his character. So far, I have found dramas which have two of the three reqs but nothing that fits all three. How cheery.

I don't really have any death caps because I was too busy bawling my head while watching to cap and I can't really see myself going back to cap any time soon (I am not that much of a masochist) so there's that.

I just realized something - my two favorite cdrama OTPs are both (a) period secondary OTPs (b) involving fierce but not too-bright warlords (c) who fall in love with their tough wives at first sight (d) and end up in death-suicide which makes me bawl. Three Kingdoms had nothing on The Myth where Xiong Yu/Xiao Yue made me cry so hard I literally had to throw up and lie down. Their death scene remains the most epic, amazing, and awful drama scene I've ever seen. From anywhere.

In other news, the Warlord Mousie Would Most Like to Take Home (and then make sure he doesn't off me or steal things) award goes to:

Yup. My favorite character in 3K is still Cao Cao. I can't stand Liu Bei, who hasn't done anything awful, but I love Cao Cao, who has done plenty of awful things, including killing half my OTP and causing the other half to off herself so as to avoid submitting to dishonor. And I still love the man. Clearly, there is nothing he can do to make me not love him.

Oh, and since I am about to restart 3K, inspect more insane binges and posts. This drama devours my life.
