Welcome to SID Guardian!

Hi, and welcome to SID Guardian!

sid_guardian is a noticeboard/community for:

• linking Guardian fanworks of all kinds


• linking to Guardian-related news (incl. info about the actors and their other roles) and meta (incl. serious meta, squee, picspams, episode reactions, writing-meta)


• making Guardian recs, and


• making fanworks-finder/rec-finder posts.


• ETA: You can also post content directly to the comm.

Which is to say, it's for letting Guardian fans find each other on Dreamwidth. :)

Please link your Guardian-related posts here! Whether novel or drama, this is the place for it. Don't be shy, and please encourage other Guardian posters to link as well. You can also link to/rec things that have been posted by others.

As the comm develops, we hope to introduce social, discussion and/or prompt posts, but given it's December, we thought we'd start small and manageable.

To kick things off, if you feel like it, tell us a bit about how you ended up in Guardian fandom! Or let us know your favourite character or scene from Guardian, or what your power would be if you were Dixingren.

And remember, there's no tension that can’t be relieved with a lollipop. And if there is, try two lollipops.

Hello, I'm ratbones, fifteen minutes late with a fresh new account and zero Dreamwidth experience! I'm a rookie writer. I'm just bumbling around with my lil gameface on trying to figure out how to participate in any of this glorious fannish activity, because I've only ever lurked.

I first watched Guardian way back in July 2018 and went straight from the last episode to AO3 (okay, with some crying in between), but I made the usual assumption that the most I'd contribute would be leaving guest kudos. It took me till this spring, when my Guardian problem had not abated AT ALL, to decide this was getting ridiculous and I needed to write something. Having stuck one toe out of my cave, I was then dragged the rest of the way into the light by this super welcoming fandom, for which I am very grateful.

I really can't start listing favorite scenes or I'll be at it all day, but one underrated scene has been popping up in my head and making me laugh recently. In Episode 34, when there are arrest warrants out for the whole SID team, Shen Wei gets recognized on the street by a couple of officers. When his innocent face doesn't work, he clocks both of them, says, "My apologies," and runs away. So polite!

Yay for taking the plunge, and welcome aboard! It's really amazing how this fandom just won't let people go. It makes me very happy!

Hee! I had forgotten all about that. :D

Thank you! Yesss, this fandom is really something special. <3

I'd overlooked that scene, but on a rewatch, the combination of undignified fist-based combat and formal apology just killed me dead.

Hi! *waves* Welcome (and welcome to Dreamwidth!)!!! :-D :-D

Hee! That's awesome! There is something so magically addictive about this fandom, isn't there?

[ratbones]

Thank you so much!

Yes! It appears to have some kind of preternatural hold over me, and I don't even mind. <3
