I personally find this scene very cute, dunno about everyone else?

A couple out and suddenly rains and they get this big leaf (i think its banana leaf or something?!) to cover ^^ How cute~
Linda has filmed this scene twice, so cute. With Benny in The Biter Bitten and then now with Steven in Ghost Writers.

A Modern Version

And an ancient version here...

So which version do you like more? The modern with Benny or the ancient with Steven?! Haha it reminds me of my other post, a scene in Linda's MV, that was used in a drama. And I had a poll too, everyone voted for the MV one. Now I shall have another one. I believe last time people choose it because they liked Linda?! I wonder this time ^^ Maybe the guys this time or period of time? Personally I can't choose :D Prob Ancient? Haha...

Fala saves Katy, she is a daughter of an official. Katy falls in love with Fala. Fala took Steven's fan and said he is Pu Song Ling. Funny how Katy referred herself as 小女子 and Fala asks whether there is a 大女子. ^^

Fala is funny. She hears that Steven and Linda's heart is thumping fast and she asks them why! ^^

Fala drinks wine and finds that she is not allowed and since she did, her powers were weak. She had to eat a peach in order to regain her powers back. And it had to be a fresh peach just picked from a tree. Fala saw one and picked it up with Steven.

She ate it. Fala says to Steven, "Don't you think I look all refreshed after eating the peach?!"

And Steven replies, "Compared to those dead flowers, you do look refreshed."

And Fala uses her powers to make the flowers all lively again. Steven sees it and is shocked!

-------------------------------------

Fala is so funny! I love her character, she makes the series more funny~ But I also like Linda too ^^ Sad how Steven keeps avoiding Linda in this episode.

Some new graphics I made:


01. linda and steven - ghost writer
i don't really like this one, it's just weird. the sides are...lol?!


02. fung x sa - jade and pearl
i like the colours... quite like this one ^^


03. memories - fungyi (MOL function)
hehe i likey this one ^^ i like raymond's expression funny ^^


04. the cuteness of FungYi
i really likey this set and the pictures! so cute!!! XD


05. linda chung - ghost writers
this one is okay la~


06. raymond lam - hope
i like this one, very simple though ^^

This scene is so cute ^^ I didn't expect they will develop feelings for each other so fast ^^ Already the beginning of a love triangle... Raining and Steven gets one of those big leaves as an umbrella :)

At first, Steven asked Linda out for fireworks festival or something but then Steven finds out that Sunny likes Linda. So I guess he decides to give up on Linda and let Sunny have her...
We can see that Linda likes Steven too ^^ She is praying for him~

Finally since episode 2, Fala appears again!! Love her character so much, she appears in a guy's outfit because she promised to not find Steven as Siu Tsui or else her fox tail will grow as long as it can so therefore she 'pretends' to be her older brother and made up a name randomly called "Ling Wu Dai Dang" Meaning "Big Light" Haha! XD

what i find MORE funny is when Steven tells her not to show her money so casually or else she might have danger and she goes, "Sorry, I have just came here, what is danger?"

THE BREAK UP SCENE

Raymond: Sorry, Sai Lei Miu. My family has given me a lot of pressure. I’m sure you have pressure too.

Tavia: So? Think of a solution. I’m already changing job (changing from CID to something else)

Raymond: Did you know when you decide to ‘change’ my heart feels uncomfortable. I’m very mad at myself that you can sacrifice like that for me, and I haven’t done anything for you.

Tavia: I never asked anything from you

Raymond: You think ‘changing’ can solve the problem with my family? I see you smile so happily, even I thought it can be that simple solving all the problems

Tavia: It is…

Raymond: It’s not. Two people with different backgrounds getting together, the two families cannot be left alone, and there might be problems that we can’t even imagine will come out. Until my mum got sick, I’m sure that I’ve calculated this wrongly.

Tavia: What? Wait… the calculation I’ve already worked out. I’m the one that likes you first, from when I had feelings for you, I already know we’re from two different worlds. I never thought we would be together. You teached me… You told me what was [science word] You said when a girl and a boy comes together, this would add. This relationship is called ‘love’ right? You like me because [science word] has [something]. You never said that us together is a calculation. Since when did it turn into a calculation?

Raymond: Sorry

Tavia: I don’t want to hear sorry, You don’t even like me?! You’re blaming on calculation mistake.

Raymond: Don’t get mad, I know I’m wrong. Other than sorry, I don’t know what I can say.

Tavia: We give each other another chance? You’re so smart, you can think of a solution right? You can do it!

Raymond: My IQ is 0 when it comes to love [???] Sorry, I’m really sorry

Tavia: I don’t want to hear! I don’t want to see you! I don’t want to listen! Leave! I don’t want to listen! I don’t want you see you! Leave! Leave!

Raymond: Sorry…

Tavia: I don’t want to! Come back! I don’t want you to go.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

After this break up scene, Tavia calls Kenneth for help. Tavia is extremely sad after the break up, in this episode, she even thinks and decides to quit being a police. In the next episode, she will finally wake up and not give up being a police.

Sorry about the poor translation. I dunno what that 'science word' is in english... And that IQ part, I don't know how to translate it :/

My Comments:
Everything looked boring to me, the promo clip made the series so boring. Was thinking would it be something good in the end like Fist? Well, it was alright only after all. Far away if compared to Fist. I thought Jessica was going to be very evil in this series, but I guess the first episode showing her evilness was just a mislead? She wasn't that evil after all, the real villain was Bowie Lam. He was sure evil, but I didn't really dislike him. The character I most disliked was Kiki Sheung, I seriously hated her character a lot in the beginning and especially where she made Tim Zai have to leave her mother Jessica. I mean seriously.. that's her sister... how can she DO that. But anyway, sooner, I didn't hate her that much but nor liked her. This drama is all about Bowie trying to take revenge for his father and etc. There was no humor in it at all, wouldn't some comedy make the drama a slight more interesting? I recon it was a bit TOO serious. There weren't much happy scenes either.. You can so tell when they try to make a funny scene or something, the music just starts getting cheesy or some sort. They kinda fail it...

I did enjoy watching Joel's character, his innocent character, I think it's his first innocent role probably..?! It was refreshing, so I don't find it too boring like others. I enjoyed watching him and Macy's relationship develop but they made really less screen time.
I didn't like how Kiki still liked Bowie even though she knows that he is for revenge and she even betrayed her sisters for him. She surely loved him O.O But he has no feelings for her?? I seriously didn't expect that kind of ending. I knew that Michael was PROB gonna die and yes he did.. It was quite sad, but I SO didn't expect that Bowie didn't die in the end, he survived... but he just turned crazy O.O Lol, And I thought the villain was going to die but instead Michael did.

Characters:
Jessica Hsuan (Chi Pik Ha) - Yeah, like I said before, I thought she was going to be evil but she wasn't. She was smart but not all the time. I thought she was going to be very evil after Tim Zai got snatched away but she was only evil for less period of time, she went back to normal after the above pic incident.

Kiki Sheung (Chi Pik Wan) - Yeah and I hated her too. She was SO mean to Jessica, thinking that her husband and her sister are together or something, that's stupid. Hated her a lot when she wants to do something bad to Jessica and esp when Jessica's mother-in law took Tim Zai away.

Bowie Lam (Ho Chung Hing) - Didn't dislike him that the fact he's the villain, but didn't expect that he didn't die but turned crazy... I don't have much to comment really... :/ He played well...

Michael Tao (Hung Yew Sang) - I actually didn't like him that much in the beginning coz he seems like a guy that only wants money and etc. But we come to see that he isn't THAT bad, he changes through the series and starts to like Pik Ha. I liked his character actually, pity he died and lost his legs :/

Joyce Tang (So Lai Sheung) - I was wondering all the time if she will turn evil in this series later on. She didn't exactly did. I liked the beginning parts of her where she was scared and meets up with Michael in the graveyard..that was funny. You can see her character change when she changes her hairstyle and clothes. She's a mother that wants to protect her son.

Macy Chan (Chu Pik Lam) - She was a brat in the beginning, kind of annoying too. But later on, it was better. I enjoyed watching her and Joel, they were sweet but pity they had less screen time.

Joel Chan (Chow Yuk Ji) - A very honest and innocent character here.
