30 Days of Guardian

23. Which two characters who didn't meet should have, and how might that scene go?
Very obviously, Professor Zhou and Ye Zun! Ye Zun tries to impersonate gege, meets gege's mentor who cares about him-as-gege, and is baffled by the sensation of someone giving a fuck about his well-being. Then it'd go to my absolute favorite place of "crack happens, happily ever after ensues" because a penguin can dream.

For meeting in person: Ye Zun and Zhu Jiu. Surely Zhu Jiu deserves a chance to meet Boss in person? (And take over all the planning. And bask in Boss's attention like a plant in the sunlight.)

For meeting again: Sha Ya and Li Qian. That shot with Sha Ya looming over Li Qian was very hot, and I have now started shipping it. Someone, please cater to me. Li Qian is the Envoy's very own postgrad, surely she has some value as a hostage and Sha Ya can agonize over not wanting to go too far for her revenge?

ooooooooooooooh

Yes!!! I was so catered to with that one shot of looming. Fic idea free for good home? (I know, no-one but me would care, but think of the delicious Shen Wei angst over his daughter postgrad being kidnapped and him being unable to save her (because she's undergoing a very complicated adventure with Sha Ya)!)

I like the idea of Ye Zun interacting with Professor Zhou! I'm not sure it would go well for the Professor in a straight reading of canon, but it's a thing I could see fun to explore if Ye Zun were a little more toned down. (Honestly, my trufax impression is that straight-up Ye Zun as we see him would take any concern exhibited by the professor as another reason to h8 on Shen Wei, and eat the professor.)

He would, yes (everything is a reason to h8 on gege, even the weather), but I am pretty sure that Ye Zun has no idea Professor Zhou exists and would react in an accordingly baffled manner, from which Professor Zhou might make the reasonable leap that his prize cabbage has a twin brother, and then the fun would start. Basically, there's a space of "I am confused but also intrigued" in which Ye Zun goes along with things in a bid to gather information so he can destroy all of the things gege likes with maximum thoroughness - and that space has delightful crack potential.
