No one from the outside has to know that it's actually just a handful of weirdos snacking on fish all day. ;D

LOLOL! At the taxpayer's expense, too.

And it makes me feel better because it means it's clearly just the fever/headache/exhaustion that he gets from being too close to Shen Wei.

Oh, good point. Thanks for putting that together. <3

I'm pretty sure he stalked him in this life too (he knew his address for one

True, I wasn't clear if that was from pre- or post- their first non-Emissary-flavoured meeting. I guess it doesn't make that much difference. The fact that ZYL liaised with the Emissary pre-canon muddies the waters so much.

(Now I'm wondering what kind of role the Guardian played before the SID was established. Did his previous incarnations liaise with the Emissary? Did he get involved in cases? *mild confusion*)

but I'm still 100% sold on this headcanon. :D And now I want to see two things - This canon-divergent AU where Zhao Yunlan can't resist hitting on the Emissary when he can see his face. :D :D And also canon exploration of all of Shen Wei's feelings about their actual first meeting and all the further professional meetings!

\o/! And ooh, yes, both of those things!

And obviously the entire story is different, with the reasons to avoid ZYL just not being there at all.

And with ZYL presumably not being the Guardian until he takes his position as SID chief.

*applauds Sang Zan for being incredibly chill and mentally stable by comparison, all things considered*

LOLOL!! :D
