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.

I took a while to warm up to Xiao-Guo - the first couple episodes, his scenes came too close to hitting my embarrassment squick

I understand perfectly, I found Guo Changcheng very annoying in the 1st episode, too. But I changed my mind pretty quickly. Can't really remember now when exactly, but again by episode 7 I already liked him a lot and I shipped him with Chu. :)

They are so cute?! I kind of bonded with Xiao Guo after reading the novel - his social anxiety is so relatable, and yet he tries so hard...! The show writing doesn't do him any favors, but he's just the most adorable puppy? And his Chu-ge who is so gruff and angry with everyone else just ends up treasuring him so much it's adorable.

I love the novel's description of GCC as a depressed mushroom, because it fits him so perfectly! The start of the story where he's meeting/being horrified by everyone at SID is just so funny.

Xiao Guo really is a very likeable character in the novel, in my opinion. Actually, the one who has a truly good heart and genuinely thinks of others first. I hope the rest of the translation will go apace so that you can read the scenes that inspired GCC's ability in the last parts of the TV series (trying to avoid being too spoilery).
