The Problematic of the Unproblematic

kakashi: It's a filler. A few tiny, gentle smiles of Jiu Chen's are worth it though.
JoAnne: The highlight for me was his brutal put down of Yuan Tong.  'Even if she's not here, it won't be you. Don't call for me again. I don't want to see you.'
Bunny: The next 10 episodes could have been easily condensed to about 2-3. I swear there's no sense of brevity at all in these cdramas. 

kakashi: Bunny, you can open your eyes! It's not longer sad at all. There's a cute dragon AND a cute baby in this episode!
Bunny: yeah yeah, I'm here. You're lying though, it's still sad as all hell. My poor Ling Xi takes her own life to escape these Heavenly lunatics and they still won't leave her alone.
JoAnne: But! Cute baby!*does little dance involving pointing out the baby*

kakashi: I'm in Dijon when this posts and I do hope I won't fall into a food coma. OverAndOut (haven't watched a thing but met feather!)
Panda: I have fallen back into drama watching, who woulda thunk? In addition to the 2 recent dramas that I will comment on below, I also started Love and Destiny and I am trying to binge so I can finally start reading recaps on here :)
Trotwood: I'm already enjoying your food pics. I spent half a day driving to another state for a three-day legal conference. Always interesting. Means I'm behind on dramas though. Okay. I'm always behind and watching stuff that half of you don't watch, but I still enjoy the conversations!
JoAnne: Again, I'm not seeing these food pics.
It's Chen Kun, it's not food.

They were sitting in Master Yifeng’s study; none of them said anything and instead drank their tea in silence for a long while. There was a half open book on his desk and the text seemed to be about Kirins. Several books and scrolls with titles that were related to magical creatures lay next to his ink stone.

Chapter 4 - Eight Pillswritten by kakashi

It was one of the most basic human need to be loved. A gentle touch, an encouraging smile, a few friendly words… it did not take much to make you feel like you belonged and only a little more to become thoroughly addicted to touches, smiles, and words.

kakashi: Go away, sad episode, shoo! (but the images! He looks SO GOOD!)
JoAnne: We just love misery.
Bunny: Is it over yet?

kakashi: I travelled far this weekend to eat Beuschel (which is a lung and heart ragout). Now I'm tired.
Trotwood: I've enjoyed watching your travelog with all the food (and drink) pics.
Panda: I watched a drama!!!! Whoooop

Located on an island far East, quiet, peaceful, and surrounded by the unmistakable scent of Divine Energy, Penglai reminded Bai Qian of her own school, so much that her whole being ached with a desperate yearning to see Kunlun again, see her Seniors again.

kakashi: The Demon Detention Tower, huh.
JoAnne:  That place was actually really cool from a viewing perspective.  Not cool from a sitting/waiting perspective though, I imagine.
Bunny: Everybody got their comfort supplies? Ready for more doom? You guys are such troopers.

Chapter 3 - The Ninja on the Rooftop written by kakashi

The blackness was absolute. The only things able to emerge from it were nameless shadows with no substance, soundless and deadly.

The liquid dripping from the ceiling caressed his skin like the fingers of ghosts.

He turned his face upwards, opening his mouth.
When was the last time he had had sustenance? These deaths could give him life.
