I was watching the first ep of Cowboy Bebop and thinking about space westerns.
The idea of the archives crew as the crew of a small space ship that hunts down info and stories from all over. Sometimes, for week or more spans its just them on their ship, travelling. Spending time
One way I've been dealing with the the lack of ao3 is by taking my fav albums and artists and applying them to the characters even more than usual. For example, there's some Marianas Trench songs I can't help but think apply to Wangxian...
@poppiesandhoney I love when one or both are some sort of non human who cultivated a body so that they can love, protect, and care for each other. Especially if they're something cuddly.
Lan Zhan figuring out Wei Ying is back because he can suddenly see colour again. He lost the ability to see it after Wei Ying, his soulmate, died 13 years earlier. The first colour he sees again is the red of what Wei Ying wears, and paired with that song, he Knows.
@everblossomin Going from absolutely polite to someone to snapping and snarling at the same person from getting to near to *his* Wei ying, to all silly and affectionate is so good!!!
@littlenightma16 Even if he glares while receiving treats, that's up to him! Qi-ge seems to find it funny and even though Xiao Jiu doesn't he'll still take more tasty, *expensive* treats as tribute.
@sweetlolixo (2) subject to punishments. Her scream sounded like a rabbits to him, when she died, so the motif could go further... Wwx something of a wild rabbit himself, always moving, doing. But he comes around lwj. Trusts him. Lwj will makes sure my nothing bad happens to him ever.
@sweetlolixo Ohhh he definitely fixated on wwx for that reason. Brainy ever rule, doing everything wrong. Almost rude but utterly fascinating. Wwx becoming his one exception, the one 'free' thing he's allowed himself and anyone after that who dares to try and control his beloved are now (1)
@sweetlolixo Part of me thinks he'd be like Hannibal in a way... If someone breaks the rules/been rude or unjust he's been so strictly taught. Maybe he's a killer thanks to what happened to his mother? That said, I could see the rules obsessed lwj targeting wei ying because of what he's
