he's not just the face that launched a thousand ships, he's the face, the ship, the armada, the war, the trojan horse, achilles running around camp weeping over patroclus, the squabbling gods, the muses, and the whole fucking odyssey

War of Faith fics!
So @stultiloquentia told me to link my fic here on Tumblr! In truth I've been remiss about sharing my complete War of Faith obsession here, but I am so, so obsessed. This show isn't even stealth m/m romance, as far as I'm concerned, it's just a straightforward BL about these two and their intense smoldering obsession with each other, masquerading as political idealism, but no one here is fooled, I mean look at them look at them
like if you haven't watched show yet you're sleeping on not only one of THE best c-dramas in recent memory, with stellar acting and edge-f-your-seat action and layered writing and intricate direction and absolutely gorgeous production design, but one of the most satisfying queer subtexts of any show ever.
um. which is to say i have been trying very hard to make this fandom happen by way of writing fics in a variety of shapes and sizes, and i haven't linked any of them here yet but if anyone would like to read them, here they are!
All fics are Shen Tunan/Wei Ruolai.
Out of his system. 1,269 words. Just a short scene and a quick bit of shenlai suit kink because i couldn't take their blazing UST anymore. Written after episode 8, which was 5 eps before the show actually gave us canonical shenlai suit kink?!?! This show, I swear. I swear!!!!
Wedding night. 3,385 words. Written after episode 16 and the epic staircase wedding ceremony. Just taking things to the obvious next level.
Ask a Manager: My boss is showing blatant favoritism to my coworker. This is just a silly meme I wrote based on the actual AAM blog before Congyun's longsuffering got kinda sad actually.
of a feather. 5,657 words. Kind of a pre-canon AU that posits spy!handler Shen Tunan, meeting a teen Wei Ruolai. Cue mutual obsession. I was so obsessed with this headcanon, I had to write it.
鵬程萬里. 1,130 words. A sort of stream-of-consciousness ramble from Ruolai's pov on becoming half of an intense soulmate bond, look i didn't say any of this was restrained.
Okay and here finally is an actual fic fic, except not because it started out as just a series of 5+1 sketches and then became a fic in the second half despite my best efforts.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
So I guess when I say I've been "writing fic" for this pairing I just mean I've been frantically coughing up loosely formed ideas hoping something sticks and might inspire other people to watch this show and join me in this pit because holy christ this pairing is off the chain— hot, sexy, mutually obsessed, so fucking smart and competent and obsessed with each other's briliance, so completely capable of trading who doms who in the relationship while equally capable of forming a lifetime lifestyle dom/sub partnership, 100% society elite power couple while also rough-and-ready rivals having intense soulmate bond sex in-between trying to fuck each other over for social justice, just an OTP for the ages.
sigh. just. shenlai everyone. SHENLAI.
I totally agree with everything OP said about this hidden gem. I wasn’t halfway in before calling it for War Of Faith as not only the number 1 Chinese drama of 2024 but also far and away the best and most intense BL of the year
I went in for Wang Yang, the more senior actor, but Wang Yibo’s performance truly blew me away. The Wang-Wang chemistry perfectly complements the stellar storytelling direction and cinematography that perfectly complement this skills of an outstandingly stellar cast inclusive of one of the finest, most complex and well-written and executed villain.
Also all OP’s fics are super good so go and read them
If you haven’t yet, don’t bother complaining about the lack of new Dangai, just stop whatever you’re doing and watch ShenLai fall in love and stay in love in #WarOfFaith 
📣 JUST WATCH SHENLAI FALL IN LOVE AND STAY IN LOVE 📣
the way this whole photo is a study in angles and it only works because his face is the sharpest angle of all

What Wang Yibo is everyone watching today? Of course it's SDC captain Yibo! What a rewarding pleasure to get to see WYB dancing again. But this performance is just also an excellent depiction of who I imagine he is. He's obviously the focus here, people came to see him, and the dance is his, but he continuously steps back to make sure all the dancers get their minute in the spotlight. It just has a vibe of "look at all these amazing people I get to dance/play with!" like yes, sure it's about him, but he's making it about everyone, because it's only this good when they are all doing it together.
Yibo-a-Day all posts
One of my favorite moments is from SDC5 when he finishes dancing and even though he doesn't want to talk about himself, when does he ever, he insists on grabbing the mic. Why, do you ask? To make sure he singles out one of his dancers to wish him a happy birthday. Look at his smile when the audience applauds for his dancer.
I always think the reason Yibo is so, so good at what he does is that he truly has zero ego about it. He's there for the art and for the spirit of collaboration and to respect the work, never for personal glory. To him, competition is all about the challenge. he loves winning, but it's never about winning, it's about the journey and (yes, really) the friends he makes along the way.
He refused the opportunity to speak at the SDC6 finals when they offered him the mic because he wanted to redirect the focus back onto the finalists, not himself. He made a face when they played the One and Only dance theme because if he'd been consulted on that decision, he'd have rejected it. And then he quietly snuck offstage after Poppin C won, because it wasn't about him.
And all of that is why it's always about him. ♥
Ahhhhhhh XFX welcoming XZ to Milan with all these giant billboards around town!!!
Wow, I'm so happy for him, I hope he sees them and feels like the king he is
everyone hush now and pay attention, our best boy has something he wants to say 🥹

i truly don't know how to be on tumblr, but i guess i'll say here that for a ridiculous long time i've been trying to piece together a yizhan futurefic Persuasion AU, and i just posted a flimsy update of it if anyone is interested.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Chen Rong goes wide-eyed. “I’m sorry, I thought we all made a gay love story together?”
Even suspecting, as Xiao Zhan does, that Chen Rong’s earnestness is all a form of calculated grandstanding, he feels a pinprick of envy. This is, after all, what Yibo had wanted from Xiao Zhan all those years ago — exactly this level of fearlessness.
Except now, Yibo turns to Chen Rong, and Xiao Zhan, registering his flashing eyes, realizes that he isn’t admiring or even a little grateful.
Yibo is furious.
As rushed as this chapter is, i think all the stuff i originally wanted to write in this fic went into it so everything after this is up in the air. I actually have no idea how Yibo eventually creates his Captain Wentworth letter, so if anyone has any suggestions please share them!
Screaming at the universe about Wang Yibo
WANG YIBO as SECRETARY YE HIDDEN BLADE (2023) | 无名, dir. Cheng Er
see, the thing is… this guy is billed as an idol but in reality he’s a goddamn character actor and incredibly good at disappearing into whatever role he’s given.
Like, I’ve been following his career since The Untamed, and even having seen that show a zillion times and god knows how many gifs/stills/etc Lan Wangji just doesn’t even look like Wang Yibo. In Legend of Fei, Xie Yun looks nothing like Lan Wangji and nothing like this guy, and nothing like Xie Yun half the time because he puts on terrible disguises…and nevertheless disappears into them. This guy here looks nothing like his other military/cop/gun toting characters who look nothing like each other.
He managed to be plausible as 3 years younger and 15 or so years older than his calendar age in CQL, many of those scenes shot on the same day.
And it’s more than costuming or makeup by a lot. We’re talking Christopher Reeve superman-to-clark-kent and back again levels of transformations in a breath in the bts.
Like I know, I KNOW the same actor is playing all those roles but my brain keeps going… nawwww. And that’s a level of brilliance a lot of very big-name actors will never actually bother aspiring to.
wang yibo really said 2023 is the year i show you my emotional side and we're two weeks in and i cannot handle it i'm not ok
Han-ge is so proud, he is a proud dad and he is proud of everything that Yibo has achieved 😭😭😭.
I'm her
