things vanish but will be found again

[marycrawford]

I've been in a weird headspace re: fandom where I've mostly stopped reading Guardian fanfic because I love it so much, and it has such good writers, that reading anything awesome will do my head in as far as writing goes. (And I'm inching closer on finishing the AU I started, whoops, two years ago? Still a way from the finish, and then there's beta, but things are looking up.) I want to get this story out and catch up to everything I missed, damn it.

But here's a story from a while ago that lit my imagination on fire:

Follow You Everywhere (5091 words) by achray
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: 镇魂 | Guardian (TV 2018), Kuroshitsuji | Black Butler
Rating: Mature
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan
Characters: Shen Wei (Guardian), Zhao Yunlan, SID team
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Kuroshitsuji Fusion, Canon-Typical dark content for Black Butler canon, Canon-typical violence for Black Butler canon, black humour, Constant Innuendo, Demonic Contracts (Kuroshitsuji), Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan as themselves
Summary:

Never had Shen Wei known such enjoyment, in fulfilling the duties a demonic contract required.

It's a crossover with a manga/anime series I had never heard of, and it doesn't matter because I found the story entirely comprehensible and deeply delicious. And then I fell into a hole and read a whole bunch of the manga, and watched the anime as well. Good times.

And now Guardian has been removed from Youtube, again, which sucks, since it's just so handy to rewatch a scene or an episode through Youtube for a quick fix. And to attract new fans.

But fandom has access to all the beautiful HD files with fan-curated subs. (That link goes straight to a Mega download site that I share with permission!)

Woohoo! *cheers you on*

Also cheering you on! Reading Guardian fic is still my happy place even when I get distracted by other things as well, so I hope you get to go back to it <3

In vaguely related good news, I finally finished a draft of the longer fic I talked about previously. It's not actually that long (35k), but it took over a year to write, so it still feels odd that it's done save for editing (ye gods) and beta.

Man, that's a mood - I have to decide all too often whether to read or write because there's only so much time and my brain will hook on one activity to the exclusion of the other :'D (which leaves me with a high pile of fics to be read still, this fandom has a lovely backlog to snoop through but also still regularly new stuff to enjoy, I'm torn!)

Good luck on finishing your story and have fun diving back into that treasure trove!
