Status Updates From Soul Vibration: 灵魂骚动 Vol. 2...

If Salinger is a riddle, I'd probably never find the answer

If Salinger keeps giving these weird mixed signals... I'm going to scream.

These two are killing me!

Talk about slow burn. Ya think ya smell smoke, but no, it's not.

chi nan is self-aware of his feelings (finally!!!!) and yet he’s not self-aware that salinger likes him back…so close yet still so far away 💔

chi nan: you’re the most talent bassist i know!!!!!
salinger: …so you know other bassists? 😐

not salinger grilling chi nan on who he wants the LOTUS debut album for. ‘girlfriend?’ ‘female owner?’ 💀it’s literally for a 49 year old man who is turning 50 chill

it’s not suspicious at all that salinger—who never lets alone ride on the back of his motorcycle—is having chi nan go pick up a ‘new’ helmet he had made and even emphasized that chi nan needs to try it on

”Chi Nan,” Salinger says, “when that day comes, you have to tell me.”

Salinger, if that day comes, you are the last person I would want to tell.”

just stab me it would hurt less!!!! salinger wants chi nan to tell him whenever he fully loses his hearing and chi nan wants to do everything but tell him 😭

”I have someone I really like too, someone dazzling, who also lives in his own world and doesn’t notice me at all, but I don’t think I’ll ever get the chance to tell him, I’ll definitely get rejected if I do, but you don’t even know what the answer will be, so why not try?”

IS CHI NAN FINALLY BECOMING SELF-AWARE OF HIS FEELINGS???

it’s so cute that salinger was acting all sulky because chi nan & another assistant had matching keychains (that were given as a free gift by the COFFEE SHOP). and he only cheered up when he too got a keychain with a little coffee bean holding a bass guitar…the closet is made of glass at this point salinger

”When the sun rises, I want to hold you tight. I think for a moment, and then just like this, together forever. Us together…forget the past, ignore tomorrow.”

you cannot tell me salinger didn’t confess /something/ when he wrote these lyrics & asked chi nan to say them back to him IN JAPANESE 😭

”Yeah, I wasn’t thinking straight.”

i bet salinger probably hasn’t had a straight thought this whole volume 😭
