Sunday snippet

I've been writing again! Excruciatingly slowly, but still. Words. My top achievement has been 500 words in a day.

Here is some more time loop fic! I'm at 6.5k in total now. It's pretty much emotional knives all the way down, especially for Zhao Yunlan.

"We need to find out what happened in Dixing, then," Shen Wei said. "I can —"

Zhao Yunlan's hand shot out and grabbed the hem of Shen Wei's sweatshirt. "No."

"You don't —"

"I don't know what you were going to suggest?" Zhao Yunlan chuckled, with no humour in it. "Shen Wei, I have watched you come up with ideas about this, and try and them all, and most of them kill you. Please just… just trust me on this."

It's what all the cool kids do when it's pointed out that we're doing something neat.

Any momentum is better than none! Looking forward to this one.

More time loop! And emotional knives yesss. Poor Zhao Yunlan, watching Shen Wei constantly dying. I hope he gets the message here and they can work things out alright!

Yay words! And what an intrigueing snippet! The first time I read it I missed that it was a time loop and it was SO ON BRAND for Shen Wei's problem-solving that I didn't even notice.
