May Fanworks Round-Up Post!

[awanderingcoyote]

 This is the fanworks round-up post for May! Please link in the comments to any Guardian (or related fandoms) fanworks you created or enjoyed last month.

• 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!

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 May?

8 works from me in May! :D (And one already in June, hee, but I'm keeping that one for the next round-up. :D) Oh, and a silly incorrect quote tumblr post (with nsfw text). xD And as always there's a handful of recs in my newest bookmarks! ♡

Shen Wei breathes him in, the silver hair falling all around them now, under the crackling of dark energy that rises and unfolds before retreating again. He tries to ignore it, but it is like frost on this summer night, brushing against Shen Wei's cheeks and neck and lips until he shivers.

Summary: It all happens before Wei can even blink. The beautiful young god looks up at him, sun glinting in his hair and eyes. Wei's heart does a flip in his chest that somehow shakes up his world more than the tumble down from the rock. The youchu's teeth sink into his neck.

Somewhere in the background of his mind there are more things, impressions twisting and hard to grasp — strong arms lifting him out of the water, and the faint scent of every wildflower Wei has ever known and could ever imagine. After that there's only darkness.

I wrote a thing for 520 Day:

Unwritten (3,017 words) [Teen]
Relationship: Ya Qing/Zhu Hong
Characters: Ya Qing, Zhu Hong, Ying Chun, Snake Tribe's Fourth Uncle
Content Tags: Post-Canon, Post-Fix-It, Guardian Treaty, Yashou Worldbuilding, Yashou History, Fu You's Legacy, High Chief Zhu Hong, Pre-ship, First Kiss

Summary: It's foolish to have a quarrel with a dead woman, but Ya Qing does. She's had it for years, ever since she began to realise how much the Guardian Treaty and Yashou neutrality were holding her people back. Fu You's legacy looms large among all the Yashou tribes, and everything Ya Qing did was to try and escape it.

Yayay! :D

I also wrote a thing for 520 Day:

Title: Senza Sordino (没有弱音器) (6858 words) [Teen and Up]
Fandom: 镇魂 | Guardian (TV 2018)
Relationships: Shen Wei & Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi & Tan Xiao, Background Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan
Characters: Zheng Yi, Shen Wei, Tan Xiao, Special Investigation Division | SID Ensemble (Guardian), Zhao Yunlan
Additional Tags: Episode Related, Episode 14, Missing Scene, Canon Compliant, POV Outsider, Fatalism, Trauma, Mentions of deportation, No One Is Actually Deported, Happy Ending, rated for themes
Summary:

Zheng Yi quavered. On her left were the conscious and unconscious casualties of her desperate search; on her right stood the object of it, Tan Xiao. She’d been too desperate to consider anything or anyone else while she’d been parted from him, but that was no excuse. Something inside her cracked, and guilt poured out.

In this private space shared with only the Envoy, it felt safe to speak. She gulped back tears and opened her mouth. Whatever kind of person the Envoy was, she had to say it. “I’m sorry.”
