please come tl;dr at me about Shen Wei

[extrapenguin]

I need to figure out stuff about Ye Zun, and [spoilers], but also stuff about Shen Wei! Since having other people say things about the thing is in general a productive way for me to acquire thoughts, I now invite your opinions on Shen Wei and secrecy. He's trying to tell Zhao Yunlan the absolute minimum to protect him and also the timeline, yes, but in a divergent scenario where he was unavoidably associated with Zhao Yunlan, how much would he tell? What do you think is the core of the (over)protectiveness and secrecy? What is the root of his nondisclosure?

Giving him Reasons would only make it longer and more involved!

Ah, you are resistant to the root of all writing evil. Go you! (I know where my problems come from.)

There will be no excess plot in my fun worldbuilding times! Only one Dixingian who's bad at being on dates being taken on them by his human soulmate.

(I also need to research what sorts of takeout is popular in China, and types of dates one can do in the comfort of one's apartment, and try to figure out what the Envoy would be like on said dates...)
