A few fannish updates

I wrote a Tibetan Sea Flower fic! And also Sand Sea fic, sort of, just due to the way they adapted Tibetan Sea Flower. As I said in my spoilery review, Zhang Luyi was just very, very good at pining and longing and yearning. It compelled me. When I brainstormed fic ideas with [personal profile] lunarriviera, I said at some point that Wu Xie basically spent ten years falling in love with a ghost, after they parted as friends* and Wu Xie subsequently lost all his marbles.

(* "Parted" as in, one friend nerve-pinched the other into unconsciousness so he wouldn't make a scene, but you know. Who among us.)

So then I literally wrote that. (And sam helped me with all the Sand Sea lore. <3)

ยป how to fall in love with a ghost

Relationships: Wu Xie/Zhang Qiling, Wang Pangzi & Wu Xie & Zhang Qiling

Summary: Xiaoge has gone behind the Bronze Gate. Wu Xie is handling it well.


When I started writing, I thought that maybe it would be Zhu Yilong's Wu Xie in my head, or maybe Qin Hao, but then by the end it was just fully Zhang Luyi, going very quietly insane with love. That's how compelling he was. Dammit. (Although that scene in the shop was 100% Qin Hao. I could picture it quite clearly.)




I briefly considered signing up for Yuletide, which I haven't done since 2010, but then the thought of coming up with fandoms to request and details to put in a letter was too overwhelming. So I'm just gonna attempt some treats for the fandoms I was considering! Also looking forward to [community profile] fandomtrees to make some non-fic gifts, hopefully.




Lastly, Wang Yang is fully back from his self-imposed (?) radio silence after the big Magnolia Awards kerfuffle! I have lost all track of his event appearances and brand relationships (apparently he's hawking supplements with his Stand or Fall co-star now?), so here are just some recent-ish highlights:

- photoshoot for the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala where he sang a duet with someone
- photoshoot for TOD's (and a tiny little BTS clip)
- whatever this is ๐Ÿ™ƒ
