there’s many reasons i like jiang cheng but at the end of the day the biggest pull will always be that he has genre awareness
#he follows wei wuxian's lead every step of the way knowing damn well what awaits them. and when his brother lets go of his hand#(because he LOVES him because he wants to PROTECT him) it's a slap in the face that he allows despite having seen it coming#i've said it before and i'll say it again: cassandra!!!! and so... and so he knows the genre#and he plays along while still fighting quite desperately against it. for a time at least.#because he rebels here and there before he learns his lesson. before he realizes that him not playing his role only makes shit worse#so when the moment comes (when he has to be the villain. the brother-killer. the merciless sect leader) he steps up.#he walks up that cliff. he leads the siege.#he goes to his brother. broken-hearted. sword at the ready. (with /everything/ left to lose because if we know something about#jiang cheng is that his family is everything to him) because it's what he has to do. because he knows his role. and he will do what he must.#cain was always going to be the first murderer. judas was always going to betray jesus. lucifer had to be cast out of heaven.#okay wait i didn't mean to make it so biblical lmao (but since i'm here he is unwilling lazarus as well - a point can be made that#wei wuxian is ALSO an unwilling lazarus - /and/ he is st. thomas too. testing the resurrected. wanting proof that it's /him/)#i'm sorry i'm just using the figures i'm not making this religious lmao help!#me patting jiang cheng's head: this character can fit so many parallels to well known tragic figures in him!#it does all come back to cassandra by the way. that's my main gal right there.#mh these are....a lot of tags i'll shut up now lmao#untamed.txt#jiang cheng#fra.txt
