Anyone up for episode 16 of #guardian tonight 8pm CET? "Zhao Yunlan uses the 'ending your descendants' kick" :) @Brennuvargur@Lycanandproud@phyrry@demitas@likealeafonthewind@TheWebRecluse
Wow, I honestly didn't remember what an emotional rollercoaster the first two eps of #guardian were, what with Li Qian's whole storyline... Next livewatch tomorrow 8pm CET, for those interested!
Rewatching the glorious vid of Bai Yu and ZYL singing to each other, I realised the phrase "record player with the dream of music has your voice within" reminds me very much of "you're an ipod with my favourite songs", which was a Pete/Patrick (Fall Out Boy) thing. I love it when fandoms and OTPs collide, it makes me smile like a loon - and shows that I still like the same stuff I did 10 years ago. g#guardian#bandom
After the emotional upheaval only one ep of #guardian caused me this morning and spending the rest of it finishing up the recs blog, now I've started Japanese BL two-parter "Seven Days". It has an intriguing premise, very fanfic, and the two guys do archery (hi, my inner Alec Lightwood fangirl!), so there's no way I'm not going to enjoy it. ;) https://aworldofboyslovebl.blogspot.com/2018/02/review-seven-days.html
That exciting moment when you realize that one of your favourite vidders is also in your new fandom. I'd even seen a vid before, but hadn't made the connection. I don't even care that some of them are crack vids, which aren't my cup of tea usually. But this one, though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGiUOwMYAw4#guardian
Just managed to finish editing my podcast - official release is on Friday, but I'm always trying to get it out a couple of days early, in hopes that it might get people to subscribe to my #patreon. ;)
This week's #shippingcast topic: #kyouhaba from #haikyuu!! http://shippingcast.fandomish.net
This obviously meant no #guardian today, aww - I miss my daily dose of Weilan! :)
Because apparently #guardian isn't enough, I've been checking out a few other movies & tv shows while doing other stuff today (sth I can't with Guardian)...
I didn't get far into the "A Discovery of Witches" book for some reason (although it's technically still on my "currently reading" list), but the tv show has a few things going for it - like Alex Kingston (River Song! as a lesbian witch!) and Matthew Goode. :)
Awesome #guardian vid: https://archiveofourown.org/works/17545976 - Florence + the Machine makes everything even better!
(Btw, for my own vidding purposes - where do I find the eps without hardcoded Chinese subs?)
Quick update for my #introduction post: 38, female, Swiss 🇨🇭 , ace-aro :heart_ace: (aegosexual), fandom old. Writer, vidder, giffer. Currently mainly into #jalec#stucky#guardian but also lots of other fandoms (mostly tv).
Came here after seeing posts on fandom-after-tumblr - really enjoying this place, especially because I never did fandom twitter.
I'm shirasade pretty much everywhere else - :dw: :tumblr: :ao3: :pillowfort: also Hubzilla (fandom.stopthatimp.net), previously LJ (deleted).
Seriously, it's 100% fanfic come to life. There is no heterosexual explanation for pretty much anything to do with Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlun. The glances! The taking care of each other! The half-hidden smiles!
Like, in episode 8 alone, Zhao tried to woo Shen Wei with books (which he pretended to have inherited, but had in fact bought especially - they turned ou
I'm at episode 4 of Guardian. It really is like fanfic come to life, and my one complaint is that I can't really do much else while watching it (because of the subtitles), which is my usual MO.
Although this blog is far from finished, I'm rather happy with everything I've accomplished today. I've also continued my writing streak, managing another 800 words on my Jalec Vampire Academy AU.
Also planned our annual North Sea vacation in the Netherlands with one of my best friends - if possible, we'll go back to the beach hut we were at last September.
