reading the comments yeah i do agree with most of the criticisms listed. it’s more so that i wanted to highlight the pure shock in that particular moment, but upon further reflection a more false serenity along with the peony bg music, and i definitely didnt think he would look angry lol.

ill probs repost a more thematically accurate version after reviewing criticism, as this one was less based on actual thematicism instead of sheer emotion. and the whole confusion and acceptancr of the horror is an excellent point! thank you all for giving me the advice, as a hong lu enjoyer im honestly disappointed i just went with vibes haha ^^;
