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!

Me too! I love his relationship with ZYL SO MUCH.

I also headcanon that Da Qing ended up good friends with Shen Wei in the past -- see Shen Wei's fond little smile when he first sees Da Qing in the present, grumbling about standing guard -- and I am SO REGRETFUL that Shen Wei's nap/Da Qing's memory loss took away the possibility of the two of them traveling the world together, having adventures, waiting for Kunlun to return to them.

Butting in, but saaame. I will forever be sad at this. :(

You know, I was pondering the whole "I searched for you for 10k years" vs "I woke up ~20 years ago" mess the other day and had the thought that maybe when we see Shen Wei wake up on screen, it's not actually the first time? Maybe over the millennia he's had a cycle of sleep/wake/sleep and the drama only focuses on the last one because it's plot relevant. (There's precedent! We've seen them make odd timeline cuts before.) If so, then there definitely would be time for Shen Wei and Da Qing to have adventures in the past! I mean, it still ends in sadness because Da Qing's memory loss, but until then--adventures!!

(Admittedly, I haven't rewatched the show to that point yet and I'm sure that when I do, I'll find details that immediately joss it, but until then I am holding *tight* to this headcanon.)

Well, if he continues seeing Dr Cheng he could always get his memories back. >.> Adventures remembered!

And yes, I like this headcanon. XD

[goodgriefcharlie]

Oooh, I forgot about Dr. Cheng helping him get his memories back. Oh yes, I like that.

[firestar]

And they all lived happily ever after, memories restored and all. The end. XD
