July fanworks round-up post

[china_shop]

This is the fanworks round-up post for July! 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!)

So ... what Guardian and related fandoms works did you create or enjoy in July?

I posted one little ficlet and three meta posts this month:

Episode 27: A Secret Assignment (748 words)
Da Qing & Shen Wei, Shen Wei & Li Qian, written for the Da Qing fest, G-rated
Professor Shen was in regular clothes, but there was still some of the Black-Cloaked Envoy’s gravity about him. It had been like that a lot lately. “Da Qing, I know it’s late, but can I give you a small assignment?”

- Meta: narrative structure and raising the stakes in the Guardian drama
- Ye Olde Olde Haixing Era and some of its parallels, ep 40
- A tour of the lab and Lin Jing's inventions

Just one fic from me this month:

Title: Relinquish all claim
Rating: PG-13, Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan
Word Count: 2,088
Summary: He'd thought Zhao Xinci cruel, xenophobic – but never before had he realised he was also heartless.

This is the first part in my Dixingren Zhao Yunlan series idea :3

I started "30 Days of Guardian" but then life promptly got in the way after the first five posts. I'll continue it in August! Other than that, preparing for guardian_wishlist is the only thing I managed to do. *sighs*

Two quick fic recs, though I haven't been reading much either:

the day of harvest by marycrawford - post-canon domesticity
all the things you feared (i was) by kat_lair - Shen Wei under the influence of a Dixing sex power

And two art recs:

Guardian Lantern art by omaenanimonoda
Weilan art by mme6
