From Twitter:
Sweet-sad Weilan hug.
Pure sweet Weilan kissing with SW in casual wear.
Nice compilation vid of various Zhu Yilong roles. If anyone sees this on YouTube, lemme know so I can put it in my Zhu Yilong vid playlist.
Speaking of playlists, I think it's funny how that song has been used twice that I've seen for Zhu Yilong vids and it's on my Ye Zun playlist (which I should probably make available since it's got a reasonable number of songs, now). Note: I would have sworn that was an Imagine Dragons song until I looked for a link.
Drama An unfortunate situation prompted some good discussion in Guardian fandom recently. bonibaru 's post on consent, tagging, and other issues was timely because I'm grappling with how to tag Ghost Story (the most notable one is does the entire fic need a major archive warning for non-con or will a chapter tag suffice). Excellent conversations in starandrea 's post about writing things and I'm so glad you wound up writing the post, thank you. xparrot 's thoughts on engaging with fandom are great as well.
I think by the time I have the brain space to make my own response to it everything will have completely died down (wouldn't be the worst outcome), so I'll take just a moment for a public resolution. I will be better about diplomatically pointing out what I see as potentially troubling behavior/statements in my fandom spaces when I see them rather than assume everyone in the fandom is cool with the status quo. Might as well put my thick skin to use somewhere.
Someone contacted me on Monday night about translating my Guardian fics into Russian! I, uh...might've sounded a little deranged with my enthusiastic YES. I've been excited about new Guardian stuff from Russian fans on my Tumblr dash and now someone wants to spend the time and effort translating my fics for them? o_O I'm...just...floored. Wow.
Revising Ghost Story from the top over the next couple days, hope to send the whole fic to beta by this weekend.
