Twitter finds:
Zhu Yilong's handsssssssssss.
Guardian behind the scenes clips I hadn't seen yet.
Not Guardian!
“Cowboy Bebop is just your extended family from Winston Salem.”
What's your ao3 tag (based on your birthday)? Mine is Angst with post-breakup, fuck you very much?
My Guardian bingo badges! I actually made a blackout! I'm a rockstar.

I was merrily skipping along on Ghost Story yesterday when I realized WHOOPS IT'S TIME FOR THE NEXT SCHEDULED SEX SCENE. I've been so narrowly focused on getting through the current plot issues that I just...did not see it coming. Well done, my focus, but damn, that was a shift of gears when I got to the transitional section and realized "oh, right, the [spoiler redacted] sex goes here."
Since a snippet from the sex would be super-spoilery, here's Zhu Hong being a badass:
She moved her wrist in a quick motion, folding her fingers in an intricate pattern before stepping forward. He followed, slowly, frustrated and worried by Ye Zun’s strong presence. The air grew colder, wetter, and put up increasing resistance. With every step, the pressure in his ears grew until the tiny bones started to ache. Could Ye Zun rupture his eardrums? He clenched his teeth together and kept moving forward. It felt like he’d walked for miles. Zhu Hong was a few steps ahead. How was the room so far away? Turning to face the door, she touched it, testing. She waited for Zhao Yunlan to stand behind her before turning the knob and throwing the door open.
I'm in the home stretch of the story (four more weeks of story time plus epilogue) and it's possible (not necessarily probable but possible!) that I'll be done writing it by the end of the week. Eeeeeeeeeeeee!

My sister's AO3 tag is "fluff with a lot of flirting," while I got... "Roommates with BDSM" O_o (Actually not that bad compared to some of the other combos, maybe including yours XD)
Those badges are amazingly pretty *_* Congrats on making blackout!
You know, it continues to impress (and amuse, in a good way!) me that you have a schedule for writing sex scenes, lol. I am so looking forward to this fic! *Shameless grin*

And thank you for the Twitter links again - I really appreciate you sharing them over here. ♥
ETA: OMG NO. The AO3 tag thingy gave me something that's so the opposite of my interests, I'm not even going to mention it. GRRRR, how dare it not read my mind!
no subject
I do have a schedule for them! =D They're part of the plot! Obvs I need to make sure they ~fit the narrative~, etc. Er. Do...do other people not do this? LOL! Am I overly obsessed with my sex scenes? *laugh-cry emoji*

I've always liked curating/collecting images and such (hence my long run of Tumblr collections), so it pleases me I can provide that service. <3
I spent way too much time trying to figure out if I could write a post-break-up Weilan fic because I feel like someone threw me a gauntlet with that result.
no subject
HAAANNDDSSS.... *drools*
Sorry, what was I saying?
Those behind the scenes clips were excellent! Thank you for sharing! I'm so pleased to be having other people curate Twitter for me. XD;
"Alternate Universe" (very on brand!) "With Characters as Parents" (Not so much on brand, but I do like the occasional kidfic, so? *shrugs*)
I am really looking forward to Ghost Story!!!
no subject
At some point in Ghost Story, Zhao Yunlan and Zhu Hong refer to themselves as Da Qing's parents, so... =D

Ohmygosh Zhu Yilong's hands

Congratulations on making blackout! If I can get all my ducks in a row in the next few days, I may still just make it.
My AO3 tag is apparently slow burn...with lots of plot. Which is not the most on-brand result I could have gotten, but is also not inaccurate.

In cdrama fandom, too, while everyone else is watching NiF, The Untamed, etc., I'm just like, "maybe someday." I don't watch Marvel or DCU, either. (Except X-Men, which I admittedly have a weakness for)
And the funny thing is that on the rare occasions where I've succumbed to "the majority can't be wrong so I must be the one who's wrong" and watched/read a mega-hit series, I always end up being all, "So...what was all the fuss about?" (Clearly, my niche tastes don't stop at fanfic tropes, lol)
