August & September fanworks round-up post!
Oops, things got a bit hectic, and we missed a month. But it's never too late to link your fanworks! Please comment with any Guardian (or related fandoms) fanworks you created or enjoyed over the last couple of months.
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 August and September?
- all kinds of fanworks are welcome – fic, art, vids, picspams, etc. - including those made for exchanges and events
- new chapters of 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!

1. Shining bright, Reflecting in the sky [2,785 words, G-rated]
OCs, Zhao Yunlan, space.
Summary: Captain Ji contemplated the star chart glowing above their console. The course set by their predecessor twenty-one cycles ago gleamed, as always, a hopeful green arc. It was leading them further and deeper into an outer arm of the galaxy in search of that elusive prize: a planet welcoming enough and sufficiently resourced that the Prosperity’s residents could establish a home without importuning any pre-existing sentient life.
2. like no one ever saved me before [2,186 words, G-rated]
Pre-canon Da Qing & Zhao Yunlan (contains bullying)
Summary: Zhao Yunlan finds a cat in a tight spot and, naturally, rescues it.
3. The Importance of Being You [1,339 words, G-rated]
ChuGuo undercover as a m/f couple.
Summary: “Do you think anyone can tell?” Changcheng leaned in to whisper to Chu Shuzhi. His wig tickled Chu Shuzhi’s ear.
4. forever to bear the imprint of your touch [1,010 words, G-rated]
Zhu Hong pov of the "Xiao Wei!" scene in episode 21.
Summary: Shen Wei—no, the Black-Cloaked Envoy in the professor’s clothes—shouted, “Catch her!” With no sense of how it had happened, she was in Zhao Yunlan’s embrace. He was here. She was safe. He might be blind, but his arm was around her, he was patting her shoulder and letting her lean against his body and feel his warmth.
5. Onboarding [2,074 words, G-rated]
The gen version of Chu Shuzhi's arrival at the SID.
Summary: “You’re asking about my power.”
Zhao Yunlan gestures impatient confirmation with a thin trail of cigarette smoke. He’d told the Envoy what he needed; if Chu Shuzhi’s is a wildly destructive ability, Zhao Yunlan will have to risk offending the Envoy and request a replacement. Preferably someone without a doll so palpably eerie that its mere proximity makes Zhao Yunlan’s neck prickle.
6. A pivot of possibilities [1,828 words, T-rated]
The not-so-gen version of Chu Shuzhi's arrival at the SID. (Non-romantic Chu Shuzhi/Zhao Yunlan.)
Summary: There was a chill in the Monday morning air, but Zhao Yunlan opted to ride his bike to work anyway. He was feeling good, still energized from a blazing hot hookup on Saturday night, and ready to face the week whatever it might bring. Even if that “whatever” included welcoming his mysterious new Dixingren employee.
I also posted meta and a poll about Shen Wei's feelings in episode 8, a question about Zhu Hong's dream, and a question about Shen Wei's car in the novel vs the drama. :-)

Summary:
The only thing that could have made this better would be a supply of dried fish snacks, but that would require getting up. He couldn't even send Lao-Zhao or Lao-Shen for them, because if one of them got up, Da Qing would have to, too. How this cat had to suffer!
