Rereading Yi city arc makes it even weirder to me that people read Xue Yang as having some sort of intrinsic drive to do evil. Like. For its own sake rather than revenge. It's literally the arc of "if you leave this guy alone for long enough with people being nice he settles into full cottage core mode". Song Lan is like. External realities return™ almost like that's the point like if left alone without certain social elements and people's existing ideas of what he's like XY??? Carves apples into shapes
