User names: yantantether Pronouns: She/her Language(s): English is my first language. I read and understand reasonably well in French and Spanish and speak both badly. And I'm learning a bit of Chinese, but not really in any kind of organised way. How did you first get into Guardian fandom? I watched this video by AvenueX, somehow managed to persuade a friend to watch the show even though I hadn't yet, and then she pimped me into it. What is one thing you love about the show? They're so!! in love!! UGH What is your favourite terrible special effect? 😂 What is (one of) your favourite relationship(s) on the show (either romantic or friendship) and what do you like about that relationship? OBVIOUSLY Weilan. But I also love Zhao Yunlan and Da Qing's friendship - I love that they're so casually physically affectionate with each other, and they're super fun to write. Do you have a favourite character? I am stupidly and ridiculously in love with Zhao Yunlan's flirtatious, lolling, orally-fixated, brave, loyal self. Do you have a favourite villain? I'm not really a villain fan, but Zhu Jiu at least has entertaining hair. Talk to us about one (or more!) of your favourite Guardian-related canons: I love Detective L, because Bai Yu has never been more beautiful, the clothes are amazing, and I love period detective stuff in general. Also, Qin Xiaoman is a tiny brawler and I adore her. I've never managed to get into anything else Zhu Yilong has done, but I'm looking forward to Lost Tomb 3! Do you like RPF? To PIECES omg Do you have a favourite ad campaign (such as Bai Yu's rentboy photoshoot or Zhu Yilong's ReFa ads)? My brain just went into shutdown here because I started thinking about Zhu Yilong tenderly stroking his finger down a phallic object, so there's your answer! What other fandoms are you in or have you been in? I love Nirvana in Fire, but I'm not really active in the fandom at all, although I've written a couple of fics. Bandom was the fandom of my heart for a long time, and the one that made me create a journal, stop being solely a lurker, and start making fannish friends. What are some of your general fanwork likes: Pining! Fluff! H/C but with a LOT of comfort! Identity porn! Regular porn! This fandom was made for me. Where can we best find you to squee more about this thing or other things? I love twitter (yan_tan_tether) and spend WAY too much time on there. Right now I'm tweeting a lot about my current rewatch - up to ep 9! And my fic is at yantantether (ETA: and Dreamwidth too lol.) Anything else you want to say? I love the Guardian novel a LOT and am unbearably excited that the translation is almost finished!
