Summary:

There was a slight noise from inside the apartment. Shen Wei’s eyes flicked briefly toward the closed bedroom door and then back, so fast that Zhao Yunlan almost missed it.

There was someone in Shen Wei’s bedroom, and Shen Wei didn’t want Zhao Yunlan to know it.

Shen Wei had a past in Haixing before he met Zhao Yunlan. Zhao Yunlan is perhaps less able to deal with this than he thinks.

520 Day Reverse Exchange: 2021 round coming soon!

[trobadora]

The Annual Interdimensional Haixing-Dixing 520 Day Reverse Exchange is coming back for 2021!

520 sounds like "I love you" in Mandarin, so May 20th is a bit like Valentine's Day, and we're celebrating. As the name suggests, this is a reverse exchange: instead of making your request and that request being assigned to a writer/artist/fanwork creator, here:

1. You sign up with the kinds of things you enjoy creating.
2. You choose three writers/artists/fanwork creators based on anonymised ads.
3. You make a request of each of them based on what they enjoy creating.
4. You are assigned one request to create for, based on your offer.
5. You receive a gift from one of the creators you chose.

(An updated rules/info post will go up before sign-ups open, but here is last year's for reference.)

This year's schedule:

• Sign-ups part 1 - offers: Saturday 20 March - Friday 26 March
• Sign-ups part 2 - requests: Saturday 27 March - Friday 02 April
• Matching: Saturday 03 April - Tuesday 06 April
• Assignments out: Wednesday 07 April at the latest
• Deadline: Thursday 13 May
• Work reveals: Thursday 20 May (there is no anon period)

Hope to see you there, and please spread the word!
