Sex is like the beat of a drum, like hurtling down a grassy hillside or the crackle of a campfire. The body’s response is instinctual, and for some it’s a social act by definition. For Shen Wei, the Envoy—like his body, like his own face—it’s intensely private.

That changes when Kunlun arrives.

Adult, spoilers for the show. I love how Shen Wei is characterized here, as well as his relationship with Kunlun. The demisexual angle fits my own headcanon perfectly, too. Just altogether lovely!

“Why can’t you ever just obey?” Shen Wei says, more fierce than frustrated, hands fisted at his sides, and Zhao Yunlan’s mouth goes perfectly dry.

Adult, D/s, established relationship. Okay, so apparently Zhao Yunlan absolutely craving to submit to Shen Wei is my kink, because wow, this pushes all my buttons. 😉

It takes…time. A substantial amount of time, and an even more substantial amount of effort on the part of Zhao Yunlan, that yet succeeds but rarely.

That he takes that effort, that his willingness is so proven—not just willingness, but eagerness; persistence bordering on the obsessive, which is one of Zhao Yunlan’s hallmarks and virtues, but to have it applied to this—that he would apply it to this—that is what finally convinces Shen Wei.

Shen Wei still doesn’t understand it, though. Not really.

Mature, dark-ish. This is a fascinating look at a darker side of their relationship, at the fact that Shen Wei always, always has to hold back part of himself. Zhao Yunlan just wants him to let go sometimes, no matter the cost. This is the aftermath, loving and just a little bit melancholy.

“By the way,” came Zhao Yunlan’s voice from the couch, casual as anything, “if you can learn every power you see, do you happen to have Ding Dun’s talent too?”

Adult, first time. Shen Wei learns how Yunlan feels about him. Delicious, delicious smut ensues.

“So what I’d like to know, I guess,” said Zhao Yunlan, tender and merciless, “is whether you ever had the slightest intention of telling me you had returned my sight at the cost of your life?”

Shen Wei felt like a butterfly, pinned to a corkboard by the careful, loving hands of its collector. He opened his mouth to lie, and he was so bad at lying to Zhao Yunlan, and hated it so, and yet.

And yet, it seems, he was caught. And Zhao Yunlan was expecting an answer.

Post-episode 23. Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan get trapped, forcing them to talk. I’m not even that far in the show yet, but this fic owns my heart.

Shen Wei’s eyelid twitch as Yunlan unwraps another lollipop, closes his spit-shiny lips around the spherical head while looking at Shen Wei under dark eyes and thick lashes. Fists clenched on his pant leg, Shen Wei swallows and tamps down the urge to grab Yunlan across the table.

Adult, missing scene between ep 14/15. Oh wow, this fic is perfection – hot and sweet and full of feels, it’s the perfect Shen Wei POV of their first time.
