This is the fanworks round-up post for February! Please link in the comments to any Guardian (or related fandoms) fanworks you created or enjoyed this month.

• all kinds of fanworks are welcome – fic, art, vids, picspams, etc. - including those made for exchanges and events
• new chapters for WIPs count
• meta or discussion posts, too
• whether or not you've already linked these in a post of their own, we still want them here!

If you're linking to fanworks you didn't create yourself, please clearly mark these "REC", so there's no confusion about authorship/creatorship.

(And please still do link your fanworks, meta, etc. separately, in their own post, at any time!)

I wrote a brief (1560 words) but slightly spicy threesome fic!

Three on a Match

It's Chu Shuzhi/Guo Changcheng/Ye Huo, and was inspired by one of Dorinda's exchange letters from last year; it didn't strike a chord at the time, but it hung around the back of my mind until it bubbled up to the surface, especially after reading the awesome fics that *were* written for that threesome.

There is also blink-and-you'll-miss-it background Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, because those two (gestures helplessly).

• Who You Always Were (8,120 words, complete) -- posted the last 2 chapters; canon divergence from ep 12 & 13, where Da Qing doesn't recover so quickly from Zheng Yi's hypnosis, and Zhao Yunlan turns to Shen Wei for help


• House of Demon Cats (4,648 words, complete) -- canon divergence from eps 36 & 37, where Ye Zun eats Da Qing instead of Lin Jing; fix-it


• Stranger than it should have been (5,012 words, WIP) -- AU of eps 1 & 2, where Da Qing fell into the energy seal with Shen Wei, back in the day, and now they're flatmates

Ha, all my canon divergences revolve around Da Qing! *g*

These all look super yummy--I look forward to reading them!

Ha, all my canon divergences revolve around Da Qing! *g*

Even though GCC/CSZ is my favorite ship, Da Qing is my favorite individual character.

I wrote a fic for Chocolate Box, canon divergence during the Hanga arc (relevant tags: presumed dead, angst, alternate Envoy reveal):

Now This Darkness (SW/ZYL, 5250 words) [Teen]
In Zhao Yunlan's hand, the Mountain-River Awl suddenly pulses with a bright glow; in the ghost's hand, the knife pulses in the same light, just as it stabs into Shen Wei.
The next moment, there's only a cloud of black energy where Shen Wei was, rapidly dissipating like so much smoke.

Jigsaw puzzles—part-REC, part me

[amedia]

I found some very nice WeiLan puzzles on Jigsaw Planet at https://www.jigsawplanet.com/Huachenyu1990?rc=upuzzles&ts=guardian, which inspired me to make a couple of ChuGuo puzzles in response!

Ack, links are borked—will fix soon! Fixed!

One Guardian fic from me: Variable (7.5k, complete) - which was me jumping on the unexpectedly compelling dragon!Shen Wei bandwagon

And also a Lost Tomb Reboot fic: Gilded (5.5k, complete) - post-canon stabbing HC

[mumblemumble]

For my gentle post-canon series in which Shen Wei is a professor minus the Envoy duties and Zhao Yunlan is a happy househusband, I wrote a little extra in which roleplay and feelings occur:

i felt you in my legs (before i ever met you) (2,875 words, rated E)

"Do you still think about that boy?" Shen Wei murmurs, which is unexpected. He pulls Yunlan's hand to his lips to press a kiss against it, and Yunlan allows himself a sheepish smile.

"Would have been nice to spend a little more time with him."

[presumenothing]

One Guardian fic and a whole buncha gifs!

• automation, the perils of – 1.7k words of crack-taken-semi-seriously (my favourite kind) featuring SID ensemble cast and one (1) roomba.
• A gifset with this extremely(!!) Shen Wei quote…
• …and the various gifs from mine and elenothar's scene discussions which can be found in this tag – I need to get around to posting the rest that are chilling in my drafts, shoo.
