#and sheng lingyuan isn't even given the mercy of answering theoretically

lhjc said who needs time loops when you can watch the same character die at your protagonist’s hands, calling him brother with his last breath, three times in a row in canon
#烈火浇愁#and of course said protagonist (deuteragonist? whatever) remains expressionless and unmoved (apparently)#but sheng lingyuan and aluojin's friendship was first formed when sheng lingyuan /saved/ him#and it was destroyed because sheng lingyuan couldn't help saving him again and again#and it was destroyed because aluojin was so certain even in his most desperate moments that sheng lingyuan would save him#and sheng lingyuan tried. and he couldn't. and so instead he killed him.#and now he never gets to escape killing him.#he has to re-make that choice again and again and again#aluojin asks him when they first meet again in the present#whether he would make the same choices if they had a chance to do it all again#and sheng lingyuan isn't even given the mercy of answering theoretically#he has to answer in the affirmative again and again by /doing it/#the tragedy of these two is that killing aluojin is always the lesser of evils#the tragedy of these two is that aluojin does not forgive him but gently calls him brother as he dies#the tragedy of these two is that it always had to (has to) be this way#the tragedy of these two is that if they had never loved each other it wouldn't have had to be this way
