[admin] Welcome and Introductions

[doctorskuld]

Welcome to the HIStory3: Trapped 圈套 Community on Dreamwidth

Even the though the fandom is spread around on various social media platforms, I think there are enough people on Dreamwidth who have seen the show to merit a separate community to celebrate our favorite disaster gangsters and their disaster cop boyfriends.

This is a comm for discussing and sharing the love of Trapped 圈套 and its related content, including:
• All types of discussion, discourse, and squee
• Actor news and spam (RPS and speculation is acceptable)
• Fan works (fanfiction, podfic, art, icons, vids, etc.), including your own work, challenges, recs and fanwork finding, beta requests
• Episode recaps

You are encouraged to post content directly to the community so that discussion can happen in one central place.

The Community Guidelines can be found on the profile page.

To start things off, let's introduce ourselves, tell each other how we came into the fandom, and what our favorite things about Trapped 圈套 are.

Thank you for creating the comm, bb! <3

I was in love with Hong Ye from minute one and when we got to that scene I was alternating between oh noooooooooo and oh yessssssss bc I do like my surprise!antagonists when they're done well. I don't know if my interpretation is correct about how much she knew about Ah-De's shenanigans, but... maybe I could make a post about it sometime in the next week and people can bounce ideas around?

Now I wanna read a fic where Tang Yi and Shao Fei do it, tho--only REVERSED ROLES
Eeeeee YES. Also I've literally just watched the scene where Tang Yi cuffs MSF in the elevator and now I can *really* see it.

[clevermanka]

Seriously, that's some GOOD KISSIN' there.

[clevermanka]

Okay, well I've already talked myself into at least trying it. BTW, you are the person who gave me my last porn bunny. Hope this one goes a little more to plan. XD

[yantantether]

Hooray!! I am SO HAPPY to contribute to the birth of porn bunnies, it's a beautiful moment *wipes eyes* (and that fic is STELLAR.)

[clevermanka]

Aw, thanks, bb. And, uh, I already have a first line for roleplaying Tang Yi and Shao Fei so here we go I guess.

[yantantether]

He didn't even know it till he met him, but he was saving his first kiss for Andy Bian ;___;

[yantantether]

*WILD CHEERING*

[doctorskuld]

*expires*

[doctorskuld]

No other kisses are ever going to compare to Andy Bian's kisses.

Good thing they're going out, so Kenny doesn't have to settle for somebody else's second-rate kisses.

[doctorskuld]

I don't want to blow all my posts in one day, so since you're already starting on this one, I'll save it for later in the weekend. <333333

*whispers* I AM SO EXCITED, BY THE WAY. ٩(◕‿◕｡)۶

Jack really saw Zhao Zi & went “sorry, everything else is cancelled, my sole mission in life now is to take care of this adorable cop”, didn’t he?!?

[clevermanka]

Only 140 words in and I already made myself laugh out loud. I'd say things are going well so far.

[thisaintbc]

They are SO SO CUTE! Jack’s constant little smirk strikes exactly the right chord between sexy and scary, and I love the way he just goes soft around Zhao Zi. And Zhao Zi! So soft! So sweet! So caring! So dedicated! Those puppy dog eyes! It’s easy to see why Jack is so smitten ;)

(Also, I really really love your househusband series! It is exactly the kind of domestic fluff I was hoping to find for this ship :D)

[clevermanka]

You willing to beta for me, bb? Can't say when I'll finish bc my priority right now is Deconstruction of Hei Pao Shi, but this is definitely gonna work as my "I need a break from writing angst" fic.

[thisaintbc]

Howdy stranger *g*


(YES, I am gratuitously abusing the dSVB mod icon, but it’s the one I have that’s the most appropriate! Just don’t tell the other mod & I’ll be in the clear :P )

[clevermanka]

I am SO excited about being in another fandom with you! \o/ and your secret is safe with me

[yantantether]

1000%!

Also THIS fits very nicely into the vibe, what with Shao Fei peacocking up to Tang Yi from his few inches less of height, and Tang Yi very visibly going weak at the knees over it.

[clevermanka]

My latest rewatch was with a friend. When this scene came on I paused it and said "And here we have our first instance of Meng Shao Fei getting himself into a situation a little deeper than he can actually swim." OH A-FEI!

And thank you for being willing to beta! It's a comfort knowing I'll be in good hands, this being my first fic in the fandom. <3

[thisaintbc]

\o/\o/\o/ aaaahhh ME TOOO! I’ve made a couple commitments elsewhere (I promised sewingfrommagic/gingerfiend that I’d try my hand at writing a Gentlemen Prefer Blondes AU of GO, & I told my buddy Vesh that I’d watch The Untamed so they’d have someone to discuss its apparent dS parallels with) so it might be a sec before I can be super active here, but I’m really excited to see this fandom blossoming!

[doctorskuld]

Thank you for encouraging me to create the comm! I had always been unsure whether there was critical mass to really bother, but you helped me that there is!

It would be absolutely awesome for you to make a post about how much Hong Ye knew about Ah-De and the faction that clearly wanted to go with Chen Wen Hao, because that is one of the things I was never quite clear about! Would be interesting to hear what other folks have to say!

(and good luck on the fic, I am at the edge of my seat!)

[doctorskuld]

That GIF perfectly fits the reverse RP vibe too, OMG.

*fans self*

[clevermanka]

Oh wow I'd be interested to hear about those Untamed/dS parallels. I see them between dS/Guardian, but am intrigued about similarities with Untamed. I hope you can post links to those!

[thisaintbc]

I am also intrigued! The conversations about that are probably gonna happen on twitter, & I’d be happy to send you links but also I could tag you in the conversation? So then if you have any Thoughts you can chime in!
