23. Favourite soft moment
There are lots of excellent candidates for this, but I decided on the one that leapt to my mind when I first saw the question, almost a month ago: The Bench Scene. Zhao Yunlan being so very himself, Shen Wei's indulgent-but-amused-against-his-best-judgement smile, and the way they both just...sat there, content with each other's company in a rare moment of calm at the eye of the storm, is something that will stay in my heart for a long, long time. And seeing Shen Wei lean against the seatback, close his eyes and relax, if only briefly, despite the memories of his ordeal in Dixing and the knowledge of what's surely about to happen soon, made me incredibly wistful for all the things I wanted him to have, though I suspected from the start he wouldn't get them.
