Guardian fandom friending meme!!!

[china_shop]

Our lovely fandom continues to grow beyond our wildest expectations! Comm membership has just hit 100 98 (and we got impatient)! *shameless champagne and ballooooons*

A few small notes and reminders:

1. The Welcome/Intro post and the Fannish Resources post are still alive and kicking. Feel free to drop in at any time and say hi, or give us all your resource links (even the ones that might seem really obvious)!


2. Lurking is also totally fine, of course! *waves to lurkers*


3. Please tag your posts to the comm so other users can easily find what they’re looking for. In particular, it would be great if you could use the canon: drama and/or canon: novel tags, since it’s not always obvious to us mods which should apply, including for fanart or vids that use drama visuals but draw on novel elements. This is our current list of tags, and we’ll add more type tags as the need arises.


4. You can find the full (updated) comm rules on the profile page.


5. Feel free to promote sid_guardian on your journal or elsewhere. (Here's a graphic and text.)

And now, without further ado...

Since some of us are new to Dreamwidth, and some of us are new to Guardian, it seems like a good time for a Dreamwidth friending meme. Come and meet new people! (Re)Populate your DW circle!

To participate, just copy the text below, paste it into a new comment and tell us about yourself. (All information is optional.) Then read through other people's comments and say hi / follow them as desired.

About You
DW username: firestar
Languages: English
Offline location: UK

I like: I tend towards slash but also love me some gen. I have been known to go the occasional AU and/or crossover route. It... may or may not have been my rep in a previous fandom. >.>

Guardian-specific stuff
Drama, novel or both? Drama.
Fannish about canon, actors, related shows, RPF or some combination of these? Definitely canon. I'm definitely keeping an eye on what the actors are doing work wise, but RPF is awkward making for me. That said, fanvids have made me a solid shipper of Han Chen/He Kaixin, from Memory Lost (Bai Yu) and Royal Sister Returns (Zhu Yilong) respectively, but I have yet to produce anything for that outside my head.
How long have you been in the fandom? Since September, roughly speaking.
Where can we find your fanworks, if any: Don't really have any, aside from the occasional picspam on my tumblr that I uploaded insted of reblogged. Those would be under the tags 'guardian' and 'otp: worth it'.
Other points of interest regarding your Guardian fannishness:

Posting habits
How long have you been on Dreamwidth? Where were you before that? Came over during the LJ migration, got lured over to tumblr when most of my fandom didn't make the jump. Only recently got back into posting over here since Guardian brought me back.
What do you post about: Media. My cats occasionally. There may or may not be blips of my various crafting, idk yet.
Your other fandoms include: SCI Mystery, various tokusatsu shows - mainly of the Ultraman variety - but not as much as I used to.
Post frequency: Depends on whether or not I have something to post about, I guess?
Access policy: I tend to grant access unless there's a reason not to. That said, this journal was friends only for a while and so most of my previous fannishness is still under flock since changing settings only covers what you post from that point on and I can't be arsed to go unlock everything.

Anything else we should know about you?

This is currently giving me feels and idk what to do with it, but I want to do *something?*

Someone definitely needs to do something with the Time Engraver thing! *cheers you on*

[firestar]

I don't know what, though. :( Hence my problem.

[trobadora]

I hope someone will hand you an idea!

[firestar]

Here's hoping. XD

That ad was really made for Guardian fandom! *___*

[firestar]

Right? He's definitely drawing on Shen Wei there. XD

[china_shop]

Those would be under the tags 'guardian' and 'otp: worth it'.

*hearts-eyes at your tags*

[firestar]

I needed a tag I would remember, and, well. 'Worth it' wasn't something I was likely to forget and/or not get feels from, so it worked. XD

[unrelaxing]

I fell for Han Chen/Luo Fusheng (spelling??) but im just glad I’m not the only one embarrassingly into the crossover ships

[firestar]

Oh, Han Chen/Luo Fusheng got me first, no doubt. XD That triad romcom undercover vid thing? Sucked me right in. Probably because Dreamlike Life was airing at the time so there were quite a few crossover vids. Then I met Kaixin and was gone, he is my son who I shall squish and name George, etc etc. But yes, I love me some crossover ships. I'm also getting quite fond of Xia Nanxiang/He Kaixin, but I haven't seen anything of that particular BY drama so all I know is his name and that he plays a doctor in it. And there's no subs, so I cry. Like I cry over When Flowers Fade and Fly having no subs. ;-;

[trobadora]

Some of the vids out there really sold me on that pairing, too! I wish there was fic in English.

[firestar]

Saaaaaame.

[mekare]

Huh that gif sure is interesting.

[firestar]

It needs to be something? I can't stop staring at it and I need it to be something, but idk what. Gah! XD

[mekare]

Reincarnation AU?

[firestar]

oooooh.

[abyss_valkyrie]

He works his magic so well,it's really interesting to see this in an ad especially when it's compiled like this.

[firestar]

Yessss. And he's definitely drawing on Shen Wei here for that.

[rheasilvia]

I don't know who or what the time engraver is, but he definitely looks like an alias of Shen Wei's to me! ;-)

[trobadora]

The Time Engraver is from a L'Oreal commercial, of all things.

[rheasilvia]

...

Wow. That is actually really fascinating... and very creepy. What an amazing commercial...

So that was what Shen Wei was doing for 10,000 years, then? ;-)

Adding you here and on tumblr, if you wonder where your random new follower is.

:D

[firestar]

*laughs* I did wonder, but honestly? I was more surprised it wasn't a porn bot as I seem to spend a lot of time banhammering those lately. XD

Also, hiiiii. ♥

[green]

Hiiii! ♥
