Not really a prompt but would love to read absolutely anything you have to say about your cql or hockey fics (finished/WIP or totally unpublished/just ideas) I just think your brain is neat
Thank you so much ;-; My brain is currently on a hockey break, but i’m never too far from cql. Or like technically mdzs because fun facts I never actually watched cql! except the first episode, which i watch every once in a while because i love every version of the cql/mdzs cold open. it is a BANGER.
The best things I’ve never written in cql/mdzs are actually two cowritten fics with S (@dulosis) (S this will NOT let me properly tag you) In one, Lan Zhan works between Shanghai and Philly at an auction house. He is a specialist in a particular type of ceramic, specifically a celadon called Ru Ware. Some of the finest things I’ve ever written are about Lan Zhan looking at celadon glazes. The fic’s entire premise is about Wei Ying getting facials from other men. It is a masterpiece. Its gdoc is titled “AKA GRITTY (title....the once and future Jizz Fic Prime); artist formerly known as jizz fic”. It is 36k and every year or so one of us writes another scene. I love it with my whole heart.
The second S cowritten fic only exists as thirty thousand precious words of chatfic copy/pasted from whatsapp. It is an AU where Wei Ying is a specialist in the Ediacaran biota (earliest multicellular life on earth and kind of a dead end) and specifically microbial mats. Lan Zhan is a specialist in Denovian fish fossils, specifically fish sex. It is the greatest romance ever conceived. There is a logistically difficult sex scene outdoors in Newfoundland that makes me cry when I think about it, or see a zircon crystal, or remember that answering machines exist.
I knit a cardigan (badly) based on the Ediacaran biota based on this fic! In a sec I'll edit this ask to add a photo bc i'm on my laptop
I hope this was at least a little fun <3 <3
