Musings of the Obsessive Kind

Four episodes in, and the OTP has progressed to investigating murders together.




While holding hands and walking in-step. Crime-fighting FTW!



Also, it has just occurred to me that Chae Rim is supposed to be successfully masquerading as a man. Despite the bust and makeup. Ahahahahhahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!



It makes me think of Damo where I didn't even get she was cross-dressing and everyone thought she was a man, and was puzzled for eps and eps. Poor Si Lang, vision problems must be horrid!



Also, have a MV:

I randomly skimmed the drama version of Butterfly Lovers (which I am not watching. Not even my Peter Ho obsesion can make me watch a 40 ep drama about scholars, especially when it's partially subbed and those partial subs are very Engrishy) and to my total shock, this is BL's idea of a woman successfully cross-dressing as a man:




Did I mention she's also barely 5ft tall, doesn't seem to have bound her breasts and didn't bother lowering her voice? And yet somehow every man in 100mi radius is fooled, including Peter Ho - he is supposed to be a genius scholar but if he can't tell this is a woman, I think he has severe mental and developmental problems.

Not putting on lipstick apparently automatically makes you a man. I've been a man most of my life it seems, horrors!

Ah, so much fail.
