October fanworks round-up post

[trobadora]

This is the fanworks round-up post for October! 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 October?

Ha, I'm always first to comment on these posts. *waves awkwardly*

In October, I posted three fics and a smattering of other things:

• Two ChuGuo prompt fics:
  • First Inklings, 200w, CSZ/GCC, G-rated.
    Chu Shuzhi finds Changcheng's keys.
  
  
  • Lightbulb Moment, 830w, CSZ/GCC, G-rated. On fan_flashworks.
    A little misunderstanding fic.


• I'm on your side (right where I've always been), 5,150w, Shen Xi/Zhao Xinci, Shen Xi & Zhao Yunlan, background Zhao Xinci & Zhang Shi, T-rated for themes. On fan_flashworks.
  Zhao Xinci’s presence left a predictable, identifiable impression on the house, like a fingerprint—on her life, too—and she’d never noticed until now, when it was subtly but comprehensively changed.


• An excerpt from an existing WIP - ZYL & DQ.


• A list of the ways I was predestined to love Guardian (see bottom of post).


• Scene discussion: Ep 1: Guo Changcheng arrives at the SID


• A number of little Zhao Yunlan pic posts: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven.

That's because you're amazing and prolific and always have lots to report! ♥ ♥ ♥

Only managed to get one thing posted with everything going on (was really hoping to finish one or two more, oh well!)

Title: Good Poison Tastes Bitter
Ships: Weilan, Zhu Hong's doomed crush
Words: 6.3k
Tags: Zhu Hong PoV, married Weilan, misunderstandings, identity reveal (but not the usual one), Canon AU (pre-canon divergence), jealousy, bamf!Weilan

Summary: Zhu Hong knows she shouldn't be crushing on Chief Zhao—he's married!

But Chief Zhao shouldn't be flirting with their suspect either >:(

[trobadora]

One is great, especially with so much else going on! Go, you! ♥ ♥ ♥

[miss_ingno]

thanks <3 <3 <3

[awanderingcoyote]

Every story is awesome! (And it rocked too I wish I could smoosh more kudos on it!)

[miss_ingno]

Awww, thanks 💖

[trobadora]

I did a scene discussion post about Shen Wei and Zhu Hong talking to Fourth Uncle from episode 19. Unfortunately the only thing I managed this month ...

[awanderingcoyote]

It was an awesome scene discussion! :D

[trobadora]

Thank you so much! ♥

I participated in Whumptober and wrote for several of the prompts for mostly ChuGuo, but some Weilan, lots of drabbles and ficlets. I tried to put in the trigger warnings but with it being Whumptober please be mindful of the story tags :)

Here they are:
As The World Falls - H/C, T, Weilan
And We All Fall Down - H/C, T, ChuGuo, CW: Buried alive
Fan Arts - I also did fan art for And We All Fall Down.
Trapped in Confusion - G, H/C, Tiny Dragon Shen Wei and Chu Shuzhi background, Guo Changcheng
To Heal Them Together - T, H/C, Protective Shen Wei, CW: Buried Alive
Fealty Even in Death - T, Hopeful Open Ending, CW: Mind-Controlled Shen Wei
The Cost of a Life G, ChuGuo
A Map to the Heart - G, ChuGuo
A Hope for Tomorrow - G, ChuGuo (set after episode 40 and canon for episode 40)
Waiting to Strike - G, Weilan
He's Mine - T, ChuGuo, CW: implied science experimentation
No Need for Words - M, ChuGuo, CW: implied torture
Bound No More - T, ChuGuo, CW: implied torture
Won't Let Me Go - T, ChuGuo, CW: implied science experimentation

I also did pic spam of ChuGuo moments from Episode 1:
Picspam Chuguo!

[trobadora]

That is an amazing list, congrats on so many ficlets! Not to mention the picspam! \o/

I know this is old but I feel better with my record keeping properly done! In October I posted:

1.
Title: of a feather
Rating: G
Word Count: 1,197
Summary: Zhao Yunlan spreads his hands, empty, a show of good faith. If Ya Qing doesn't know he can pull his fire from thin air with nothing more than a thought, all the better. "I wanted to ask you why."

A canon AU where magic and myth also are part of the world.

2.
A themed rec list for BODYSWAP AUs!

[trobadora]

Excellent! (Yay for record-keeping!) ♥ ♥ ♥
