I'm trying to be a bit more present all around, and maybe appreciate my own stuff a little bit more. So here I am posting my own work to the comm. I made some offers for Fandom Trumps hate, and these are some of the results. It's been nice brainstorming with others.

I Demand a Better Future (12314 words) by tinypinkmouse
Fandom: 镇魂 | Guardian (TV 2018)
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Relationships: Background Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan
Characters: Zhao Yunlan, Shen Wei (Guardian), Da Qing (Guardian), Ye Zun (Guardian)
Additional Tags: Ye Olde Haixing Era, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Pre-Relationship, sort of since they're together in the future, Fix-It, Pre-Canon Fix-It
Summary:

Zhao Yunlan lands in the past. Slowly, he comes to realise that things are not at all how he would have expected. There's Shen Wei as the Black Cloaked Envoy, but no Ye Zun anywhere. That isn't right. If he doesn't change things, he's afraid the future he remembers isn't going to happen.


The fic is set entirely in YOHE, which is kind of a rarity for me. But the present time is also different from canon, though that only really comes through in little snippets of Zhao Yunlan thinking about it the present time, while in YOHE. I feel like it's also far less concentrated on the weilan relationship than my usual. All in all, in some ways it's not really my typical fic, but some change is good now and then.

And a bonus weilan derivative fic I just posted today:

Characters: Luo Fusheng, Han Chen (Memory Lost)
Additional Tags: Bai Yu/Zhu Yilong Character Combinations, Getting Together, Deception, Feelings Realization, Luo Fusheng hates cops, Alternate Universe - Modern Setting
Summary:

He flirts with Han Chen because he's hot and because there's never a bad time to pick up another cop to have in your pocket, especially one that might be looking for you at some point. And maybe he flirts with him because Han Chen's arms around him, as they dance, make Luo Fusheng's knees feel a little weak.

I’ve collected data of all the times Zhao Yunlan touches the hallows.
My criteria were: Zhao Yunlan has to make skin contact with any of the four hallows, on screen. Holding them in a bag does not count.

The columns are:
Episode & timestamp: Self-explanatory
Hallow: The hallow being touched
Description: A short summary of what he is doing with the hallow
Health consequences: How touching the hallow impacts his health
Benefits: What benefit came of touching the hallow, if any

Using the last two columns, we can easily judge whether fondling the hallows was worth it for Zhao Yunlan in any given instance.
I am pasting in the entire table, set to scroll:

Episode Timestamp Hallow Description Health consequences Benefits
1 16:39 Sundial He finds Li Qian's necklace on the rooftop and picks it up, handing it to her shortly after.
2 28:50 Sundial The sundial is in his hand while he is driving, presumably after Li Qian handed it over.
He holds on to it through Li Yufen's ghostly appearance and takes it to the SID.
2 36:05 Sundial He's playing with the sundial while talking to Heipaoshi in his office, and still has it in hand when he shows his visitor out.
2 41:50 Sundial Lin Jing is despairing over the sundial when Zhao Yunlan joins him in the lab.
When he grabs the hallow, it glows and grows in size
3 06:05 Sundial Sitting on the couch at the SID, he plays with the now enlarged sundial.
5 31:34 Sundial Guo Changcheng hands him the sundial to try and save Wu Tian'en. It starts to glow, but Heipaoshi interrupts before any more can happen.
Later in the lab, the sundial glows again and shows a projection of the mountain-river awl to Zhao Yunlan (as he is not touching the hallow then, I am not counting these separately).
A hint to the next hallow
10 24:57 Sundial Surprise! Zhao Yunlan brought the sundial on the excursion. He uses it to search for the awl despite Heipaoshi's warning. They find Wang Zheng
12 09:29 Awl He catches the Awl in the scuffle when Tan Xiao tries to steal it, immediately has confusing visions, and loses consciousness. Fainting ...into Shen Wei's arms
14 02:50 Awl He picks up the awl off the floor after Zhu Jiu fled the scene at the SID. It starts to glow and he has visions of his mother before fainting. Fainting
19 09:41 Awl He takes the awl out of its little dome in the SID lab and falls to the floor, unconscious.
He has visions of Chu Shuzhi, Guo Changcheng, and Ye Huo in the absolute-zero lab.
Fainting, nosebleed A hint to the sub-zero lab
20 33:02 Sundial Zhu Hong brings him the hallows to keep them save from Zhu Jiu. He takes the sundial out of the bag briefly.
20 37:35 Sundial During the confrontation with Ye Zun, he uses the sundial to defend himself. Blindness Protection from Ye Zun
22 32:36 Sundial Shen Wei heals him using the sundial. Cure from blindness Cure from blindness
28 31:47 Sundial He takes the sundial from its socket in the SID lab. It glows brightly and he collapses. Fainting
29 31:19 Brush Wang Xiangyang hands him the brush before dissolving.
34 21:04 Sundial He takes the sundial from its socket in the SID lab once again, and doubles over in apparent pain.
As he sinks to his knees, he is interrupted by a man who is totally Shen Wei, and struggles to put the sundial back into place.
Pain
35 14:17 All four YOHE. He takes the hallows out of the box retrieved from the rebels and tries to activate them, to no avail.
37 08:30 Lantern They find the lantern stored at the SID. Zhao Yunlan inspects it and finds it has no wick.
Afterwards he places the hallows into their metal suitcase (we only see him touch the lantern).
38 04:49 All four He places the hallows on the sockets in the Yashou cave. Skype call to YOHE
39 34:08 Lantern In a flashback, he places a bullet inside the lantern. Nice surprise for Ye Zun
40 07:55 Awl Da Qing throws him the awl, already glowing, to use on Ye Zun during the final battle. He extracts Lin Jing, An Bai, and the Regent
40 17:14 Lantern He lights the lantern with his life. Death Light for Dixing


Have I missed something? Let me know if so!

And now some stats. Note that the percentages don’t necessarily add up to 100%, because he touches multiple hallows at once sometimes.

Zhao Yunlan touches the hallows a total of 22 times in 18 different episodes. This is 45% of episodes.
An honourable mention goes to episode 15, where Zhao Yunlan tries to touch a hallow and gets as far as lifting its dome, but is physically stopped by Shen Wei.

He makes contact with
The sundial 14 times (64%)
The awl 6 times (27%)
The brush 3 times (14%)
The lantern 5 times (23%)

His health is impacted
Negatively 7 times (32%)
Positively 1 time (5%)
Not at all 10 times (45%)

Touching the hallow is
Beneficial 10 times (45%)
Detrimental 7 times (32%)

I was surprised how dominant the sundial was compared to the other three. Also, he touched them in less than half of all episodes, when it feels like he is constantly fondling them. The power of statistics!


EDIT: I had missed a benefit! The percentage of beneficial outcomes has now risen to 45%!

Summary:

At the top of a flight of stairs, a figure was slipping around a corner. In the last moment before she disappeared from his line of sight, Shen Wei recognised her: it was An Bai's friend, Cao Dandan.

Power swirled in his palm. He could catch her, easily -

He hesitated. Clenched his hand into a fist. He couldn't.

Whether or not she was innocent this time, Shen Wei had no faith in a fair investigation, much less a fair trial. Not in Dixing. Not any more.

In the grand tradition of this comm, where people used to share their fanworks a lot, here are all of mine. :D I seem to always make them a lot faster than I can share them, lol, so I decided to finally post everything. And then I can group new ones I make in 3-5 per post, and be able to share them timely and without a cut. xD

Most of these were made between late December and right now (and therefore were also linked in the recent monthly round-up posts), but for completion's sake I'm also including two much older ones (from 1 and 2 years ago).

Bidding is now open at Fandom Trumps Hate! ♡

I'm making a separate promo post just for myself because honestly this comm is my best chance to get bids on all 3 of my auctions, which is something that I would really love to happen. :D HERE is the list of all Guardian creators this year, and I hope they can make their own promo posts too! ♡



I'm offering to draw Guardian fanart: drama and novel (any characters, any relationships!) and RPF (Zhubai only), rated up to E, the minimum bid is $20. I do pretty much every genre/mood/topic under the sun (see the links for details and a handful of exceptions). I'll be super happy to illustrate your fic too!

Auction #1 | Auction #2 | Auction #3

All auctions are exactly the same and include all 3 categories - it's not one for each. (Which means that until all of them have a bid no one needs to compete with each other at all. :D)

The sample drawings in full size + a lot more can be found here on my ao3: drama, novel, RPF. (There's a handful of fics too, but fanart is always tagged.) And here are all my works in all fandoms, to feel out the style. :) Only the last year or so is relevant to the quality you'll be getting.

Bidding closes on March 1st, 8pm ET.

If you feel like signal boosting this, here is a rebloggable tumblr post, and here is another one with all the creators. :)

Zhao Yunlan's turn. He's perfectly encapsulated by "never stands if he can sit, never sits if he can lie down"[1] -- but what is his best moment of outrageous sprawling or lying around?

Some discussion on the novel readalong post made me think about the Longevity Dial arc in the drama, how determined Shen Wei is to catch Zhao Yunlan's attention... and how much he inadvertently keeps arousing Zhao Yunlan's, er, investigative instincts. :D So... a poll!

Here's the scene from the book (vol. 2, ch 12-13).
At the words “Crow tribe,” Zhao Yunlan and Shen Wei both stopped dead in their tracks.

At the same moment, a painfully hoarse voice rang out and interrupted Fourth Uncle. “Hold it!” Some note in that voice sounded inexplicably ominous.

Shen Wei pulled Zhao Yunlan behind him, gaze growing cold. A line of short, unremarkable-looking people in black robes stood in a neat row across the entrance to the Yao Market. Every one of them had pitch-black wings on their backs.

The Crow tribe had arrived.

Chapter 13

“SHEN WEI!” Zhao Yunlan grabbed Shen Wei’s wrist. Even blind, there was no missing the piercing-cold killing intent that was suddenly radiating from him.

When Shen Wei spoke, his voice held no trace of his usual refinement. Instead, it was dark and ominous. “How dare the Crow tribe harm you? Wretched, ungrateful things! Even death by a thousand cuts or their total extinction could never make up for—”

Every syllable dripped with bloodlust, but his seething was broken off when Zhao Yunlan wrapped both arms around him. Instinctively, Shen Wei began to struggle fiercely, but then inspiration struck Zhao Yunlan.

“Xiao-Wei!” he exclaimed. Shen Wei went utterly still in his arms.

After a moment, Shen Wei turned and gave Zhao Yunlan a disbelieving look. Voice trembling, he said, “Wh-what did you call me…?”

“Shhh. Listen to me. Don’t move.” Zhao Yunlan closed his eyes and opened his Heavenly Eye. His perception through it had become a bit blurry, overwhelmed by the Yao Market surrounding them. He tugged Shen Wei slightly back, and the two of them blended into the crowd of yao.


Context. )

I think this scene is a fascinating illustration of the differences between the Weilan relationships in the novel and the drama. (I'm only halfway through the novel, so please do feel free to correct my takes! And for the drama, too, of course.)

My reading of the novel version is that, when faced with the Crow that caused Zhao Yunlan's blindness, Shen Wei is overwhelmed with rage and darkness. This could be read as losing control and his "true" or base nature rising to the fore. His "bloodlust" rises, and he's going to commit murder out of vengeance.

Compare this to the drama, where Shen Wei is furious, sure, but mostly because Ya Qing is working with Ye Zun to threaten the peace. He uses his energy to fling Zhu Hong across the clearing, trusting Zhao Yunlan, even while blind, to catch her. And then he explicitly passes judgement on Ya Qing as the stern Envoy (despite Ya Qing being outside his jurisdiction), not personally. He's protecting Zhu Hong (a proxy for the SID?) and the world, rather than Zhao Yunlan explicitly.

Continued... )

Thoughts? Preferences? What have I misinterpreted? How do you feel about the drama adaptation of this scene? (Does it come down to "prefers politics" vs "prefers violently protective relationships"? *g*)


Note: I also posted a few scrappy quotes and notes from the Li Qian case in the novel.
