Sunday Snippet, et. al.

Guardian/adjacent:
TOP NEWS Guardian DVDs will be available to order from Taobao. From the replies it looks like it will be a limited edition so there's a zero percent chance I'll get one, but I'm happy for the lucky few who will.
This manip is giving me ridiculous pants feels for how SFW it is.
Thread of Bai Yu's livestream where he talks about sleeping naked.
Whole buncha gifs from episode 30.
Fanart: not sure what's going on here but it's cute. Episode 38/39 Shen Wei. The second image at Privatter really makes this for me. Wu Xie.

There is so very little I can post for a snippet that isn't completely spoilery. There's a non-zero chance that this will be the last snippet from Deconstruction!

“I hope it was okay that I just got the one room,” Zhao Yunlan said with a grin as he ushered Shen Wei through the hotel room door.

“And the one bed,” said Shen Wei, smiling back.

Zhao Yunlan closed the door behind them and leaned against it.

“Come here,” he said softly, and held out his arms.

ETA: Oh holy shit, y'all, guess what just wrapped up beautifully and SO much quicker than I thought it would?

Oh wow, Guardian DVDs! Damn, I wish they'd do a regular release. I want one! But looking at pictures online is great, too. *g*

That is an excellent manip!

I don't have a Blu-ray player, so that would be of no use to me, but they should totally release it on both. Widely! For everyone! WAAAAAANT.

There's a whole story behind that manip and it's going to end with Bai Yu getting shoved up against the wall.

And your snippet made me feel very fond!

I am so in awe of your skill and commitment to writing. I mean, sure, when you have source material that is inspirational, it really helps get things going, but the perseverance is all you!

If the Guardian DVDs are a limited release I think my odds of getting them are veryvery slim indeed, but I want them so badly...partly because I want to think that they probably won't be more expensive than the terrifyingly pricey Japanese release that's coming up, which I'll otherwise have a very hard time resisting. ^^;

That NSFW fanart is a hell of a thing. *_*

(And I know I already said so elsewhere, but so many congrats on the draft!!! I'm so excited!)

I have SUCH an old fashioned need for physical media!

The combined need to have a physical copy that I can KEEP and the desire to throw actual money at the franchise made the DVDs very, very hard to resist. But ohmygosh, Japanese DVD prices. So horrifying.

I am averting my eyes from the snippet! I'm pumped to read it, but twelve years of parochial education mean I know how to WAIT. :)

But congrats on finishing! That is momentous!

Did you see this update on the Guardian DVD?? https://twitter.com/wenella_subs/status/1285157537189203970?s=20

This manip is giving me ridiculous pants feels for how SFW it is.
Oh god same. *fans self*

And then that set of NSFW fanart...that second one...ffhfhfhfhfhfh.

OOH DO I SEE "AND THERE WAS ONLY ONE BED"??? :D

Haha, Guardian DVDs. I would totally buy them if they were possible to get. Who makes a limited edition? Whyyy?

I didn't see the live stream itself, but from those few snippets, it looked like Bai Yu was in a better place than the last one. The last one pained me to watch.

Yaaay! \o/ Completing first drafts is such a good feeling!

The Zhu Yilong hotpot one was very adorable! No better live stream to be had. :D

I want them both to be happy, too!

Bai Yu does more live streams and more regularly, and he usually likes to talk and keep his viewers entertained, but the last one was in the middle of isolation and I think he felt as depressed as we all did about the isolation, so he talked a lot about staying safe and about how he's not left the apartment in too long and gained weight and... it was very easy to empathize on one hand, because his situation and ours were more similar than they'd ever been (including the depression), but otoh it was... a bit depressing. :)

But I guess we all got better again, too, and so did he. Now he's working again, and happy about that, and it shows.

I should probably watch the live stream he did last week, where he showed people around Xi'an, since that sounds really interesting. At least I think he did something like that... but I only found twitter snippets and not a whole video. I'll go look for it, even if I won't understand a word. ;D
