State of the Fanfic

I fell off the posting on Dreamwidth waggon (in my defense, I've been busy moving to a different continent and trying to get used to All Of The New Things All At Once), but I thought I'd make an attempt at a 'this is what I've been doing fannishly in the last few months' post.

Since my last fic update post, I've posted eight fics to AO3 - mostly Guardian or Lost Tomb Reboot - though that number is partly so high because of the Guardian Wishlist Event. From newest to oldest:


After the Rains (5k, Cloudy Mountain)

Coda for the film because some characters desperately needed a hug.

Unbearable (1k, Guardian)

A sequel to the previous mildly cracky bear fic, in which Shen Wei can talk to bears (but no other animals). I'm pretty sure bear fic is just my Guardian aesthetic now.

Down is Easy (21k, Lost Tomb Reboot)

An unusual one for me, as it deals with rape recovery (though it's a rather softer fic than that makes it sound). Very much not everyone's cup of tea, but it wanted to be written and ended up somewhat cathartic so I screwed up my courage and posted it.

Is or Isn't (1.5k, Guardian)

Mostly light-hearted identity shenanigans that grew some Shen Wei feelings because of course they did.

One for the conspiracy theorists (5k, Guardian)

Guardian Wishlist fill for [personal profile] marycrawford, for the prompt 'Shen Wei's students find out'

Flowers Blooming in the Night (2.5k, Guardian)

Guardian Wishlist fill for [personal profile] yaaurens, for the prompt 'Shen Wei and Ying Chun friendship'

The Perils of Accounting (1k, Lost Tomb Reboot)

Guardian Wishlist fill for [personal profile] achray, for the prompt 'anything Xiao Bai'

Settled (2k, Lost Tomb Reboot)

Pingxie Exchange fill, for daydreamorama, who wanted asexual Pingxie (right up my street)


... In conclusion, I'm still very much in the Z1L fandom space XD

The list of WIPs I'm working on at the moment is stupidly long, but the ones that are closer to completion than some of the others include a Yuletide Lost Tomb Reboot treat, a Guardian early canon divergence AU in which HPS and ZYL end up kidnapped together and bonding ensues, my entry for the Hallows Zine, and a sprawling canon AU featuring Shen Wei pursuing musical interests in a Haixing much more peacefully integrated with Dixing.

You have been amazingly prolific despite the move!

*cheers you on for your WIPs, which all sound excellent*

I'm amazed and impressed that you managed to finish a treat this early! I never finish anything until it's close to reveals, because then I just rethink it endlessly. *g*

This is such a good list of posted fics! (I'm so behind on my fic reading!)

\o/ DW posting!

I still haven't read the latest LTR one. That'll be a while still, I think. (Although that is usually very much up my alley, I really should be less exhausted for it than I currently am.)

Also looking forward to the Cloudy Mountain coda! \o/
