ARCHIVE OF DIXING | English 镇魂 Guardian Fanworks Directory

There was something to be said for living in Ye Old Haixing Era, thought Zhao Yunlan. What with the war and the rebels, and the age of it all. It felt very rustic, very roughing it but then when he watched Shen Wei or those with powers fight, it felt like something even more fantastical.

Not that any of his rambling thoughts helped him in his current situation, crouched as he was in front of the little firepit he had dug out. Zhao Yunlan had just finished stacking together kindling and small twigs within the center of the pit, and now all he needed to do was light it.

Rebuilt Dixing has lasted for ten thousand years. The Masked Emperor rules over Rebuilt Dixing. Those are simply facts of life.

Enter Zhao Yunlan.

Shen Wei lets his guard down around the team.

The SID members answer the question everybody wonders about: Did they have a crush on Shen Wei at any point?

“He’s just a loveable ball of rain clouds. With a rainbow.” - Zhao Yunlan

When his new apartment proves too quiet to keep memories of the past at bay, Shen Wei ends up at a nearby bar, where the background noise and a chance encounter with Zhao Yunlan provide much-needed distractions.

"Pl- please don't" He pleaded, struggling to breathe.

The wicked man glared at him, squeezing his neck. Shen Ye felt his mind go blank due to the lack of air. Please, he does not want to die. He wanted to live, he wanted to be back to his gege.

"You will forget everything that happened here." He does not want to, no.

"Your brother had abandoned you." No, that is not right, this man is a liar.

"You are so useless, that you become a burden to him so he sold you to me and ran away." He does not want to believe in that. No, his gege did not- he had protected Shen Ye. 

Zhao Yunlan shows Shen Wei what he's picked out as a wedding gift for Lao Chu and Xiao Guo. Shen Wei has questions.

A moodboard featuring images of how Zhao Yunlan sees Shen Wei.

After traumatic experiences sometimes all you need is a big hug from your husband and a good talk. But when your husband is Zhao Yunlan, who's filled with mischief to the brim, the talk turns into a pillow fight.

Zhao Yunlan attends a very specific support group for a very specific problem. He may have misunderstood the group's purpose.

“Who are you?”
He pushed himself up from the ground and looked around. The landscape was desolate and there was some sort of cracked pillar next to him. There was a man there too, looking tired and wearing robes.
“Didi?”
“What?”
“Don’t you- Don’t you remember me?”
“Would I be asking you if I did?”

"My dear, I'll keep holding on to the hope that I will be able to hold you through the night once again."
A knight and a lord fell in love and now they have to spend a year apart. Shen Wei has a lot of feelings to be shared.

...or just a knight au nobody asked for.

Five years into their cohabitation is long enough for Shen San to have worked out a crude way to make paper out of pulped wood; a week before the new year, he presses several sheets and soaks them in red berry juice.
