The Untamed - Nickname Edition

[rheasilvia]

It took a surprisingly long time, but solo and I finally finished watching The Untamed. I really enjoyed it! So of course, there is a pressing issue I must adress: NICKNAMES.

For the purposes of clever (?) commentary, solo and I came up with a number of nicknames while watching. We replaced some with actual names in due course, but others stuck around till the very end. ;-) (I should add that few of them are complimentary - but my surprise fave is among those with a really bad nickname, so...)

• Stoneface


• Jin Douche


• Canary Guy


• Sulkmeister


• Pretty Evil Guy, or PEG for short - also known as Cray Evil Guy by solo (who failed to appreciate his charms)


• Jin Douche.2, or JD2


• Slimeface, also Slimedude or Slimer


• Cute Baby Cultivator, or CBC


• Jim, also known as Golden Guy - named Jim because of solo's passionate non-spellchecked outbursts of "I really hate jim"


• Bonus nickname I came up with too late, but that I wish I had though of in time: Soup Girl

I now have a number of burning questions for all of you. Namely:

1. Can you tell who these people are?*

2. Do you have nicknames for The Untamed characters?

3. Why does nobody appreciate my darling properly?

So many qestions!


*If anyone guesses all of the nicknames, I will write a drabble for them. ;-)

ETA: Unsurprisingly, there are spoilers in the comments! Just in case anyone is even slower than I in watching this. ;-)

The perfectionist in me wants to look up Jim's name just to finally know what it is, but the H8R in me stops me looking it up every time because it doesn't deserve to be known.

LOL! Let him languish in nameless obscurity forevermore!! It seems a fitting fate - Jim definitely would not want that. ;-)

ETA: So, I did find out his name... should I apologize? ;-)

[solo]

Waaaaah!

No, it's okay, I actually found it out independently last night because I have started watching my way through the series again and he appears in ep 14 with a pal as the 'last surviving members of Clan Somethingorother' and he was the chief and he's injured and he's the reason Jiang Cheng's father and sister travel to Jinlintai before the attack on Lotus Pier, because they take him there to keep him safe.

I shall endeavour to forget it again quickly.

LOL, your icon! Very nice. :-)

Good, then I will not feel guilty! ;-) And wow, I have no memory of his origins whatsoever. So he is just another thing the Wen clan has wrought, is he...

I shall endeavour to forget it again quickly.

He shall be known as Jim the Loathsome in eternity!
