Fic recs without spoilers?

[piscaria]

I’m desperate for Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan fic, but I am afraid to go trawling through AO3 because I haven’t finished the series yet and I don’t want to be spoiled. Can anyone rec any relatively spoiler-free fic? Self recs are absolutely encouraged.

I’m on episode 20 if it makes a difference.

sarahyyy has a bunch of cute AU fluff - the Bartender AU is one of my favorites, but mentions some characters you might not know yet? (They're all very much bit parts, though.)

trobadora's Dare to Hold is all set around episode 14.

xparrot's Didn't know I would feel it has adorable mutual pining in an established relationship and doesn't touch on anything past where you are in canon.

shaenanigans and fkyb each wrote a different POV on the same adorable & hot first-time fic

qikiqtarjuaq wrote a hilarious and adorable bit of identity porn shenanigans: How to Lose a Black-Cloaked Envoy in 10 Days

yantantether's Just Gotta Know is mostly spoiler free (it might elaborate a bit on something that's only been shown in flashbacks, but it doesn't explain what's going on)

tethysian wrote a fic set right after episode 20! Baby, I'd Rather Go Blind

Amazing crack by china_shop: Getting to Know You

As for self recs - most of my stuff is set in the ~handwave AU~ where things fit between/after episodes without going into specifics, but might have minor spoilers? The exception is This heart I gave you to hold is still beating, which is set after episode 16/17.

Oh, and Never Look Away is 100% porn and so doesn't mention anything plot-related. :D

Ooh, so many recs! I can’t wait to dig into them. Thank you!
