Weilan, 38

Weilan: 38. What are they like in the bedroom? Any kinks/fetishes/turn-ons? Anything they won’t do?

AHAHAHA.  GOING STRAIGHT FOR THE FUN ONES, EH?  ;D  OK, I’ll play.  ^_^

[And if anyone else wants to play, here are the questions. ^_^]

So, first off, this is based strictly on the TV series because I haven’t read the book yet.  Second of all, I think Shen Wei’s every kink, fetish, and turn-on basically sums up as: Zhao Yunlan.  I think that if Zhao Yunlan was into it (whatever “it” was), Shen Wei would at least be willing to give it the old college try, because his ultimate kink is “making Zhao Yunlan happy.”  Zhao Yunlan, OTOH?  Horny on main, 24/7, and is probably curious and creative af.  ;D

And third of all is going behind a cut because now we’re getting into lemon territory… ;D

Every time I think of these two in the bedroom, I’m reminded of something said by minotaur of squidge.org fame (R.I.P.): “At Friscon I asked the burning question "James Ellison; Top or Bottom?" And was definitively answered, "Whatever Blair tells him to be."”

Now, for those of you not familiar with Sentinel (…I probably just massively dated myself but WHATEVER XD), Ellison was the bigger, stronger, more powerful of the two.  He had enhanced/superhuman senses, he was a cop, and he had more than a little alpha-male bullshit going on.  Blair grew up on a hippie commune and it showed.  He was artsy and intellectual and basically more a shaman type than a warrior.  But there is no doubt in my mind that if Ellison was on top, it was because that was exactly where Blair wanted him to be. And every time I think of Weilan, I have the same thought: if Shen Wei is on top, it’s because that’s where Zhao Yunlan wants him.

Beyond that… I… have not entirely figured them out yet.  I haven’t written any smut for them, and I usually don’t sort that stuff out until I do.  O_o;;; BUT, I can share a few things I’ve read in other fic that really jived with me.  ^_^

Two of my all-time favorite Weilan fic are A constellation of two by naye ( @listening-to-thunder ), and the companion retelling from Shen Wei’s POV, Binary System by @clevermanka, in which Weilan basically… roleplay what their first time would have been like if they’d really been just Chief Zhao and Professor Shen and if Professor Shen really had been as innocent and inexperienced and straight-laced as he seemed.  They are both BRILLIANT fic and you have NO IDEA how many times I re-read them, and from them I have gathered the following headcanons:  

Roleplay, especially this particular one—the life and meetings they could have shared if they hadn’t been the Lord Guardian/Kunlun and Hei Pao Shi—is a kink they share.  

Also… GARTERS.  Sleeve garters, shirt garters, sock garters.  Zhao Yunlan is into them ALL.  And because Zhao Yunlan is massively turned on by them… Shen Wei is ALSO turned on, because his first, last, and most powerful kink is, as I said, making Zhao Yunlan happy.  ;D

And finally, Shen Wei has a hard NO about roleplaying having sex with a student. I think he’d have an issue with his sex life crossing his university life, at all.  I think he’d have equally much of an issue with it crossing his life as Hei Pao Shi.  Shen Wei strikes me as a man who likes to compartmentalize his life into little boxes that Do Not Intersect.  So, I can’t see him being comfortable with blurring those lines.  

And, OH.  OK.  I DO actually have one headcanon for this that I got to all on my own.  ;D

I think that Shen Wei has a service submission kink a MILE WIDE when it comes to Zhao Yunlan.  And while this could very well be sexual, I think that would play out as being nonsexual, too, because THAT’S BASICALLY WHAT THEY GAVE US IN CANON.  Like I could see him being VERY into being ordered around by Zhao Yunlan or being allowed to take a day and just… do what he can to make sure Zhao Yunlan is happy and comfortable and doesn’t have to so much as reach for his tea cup on his own—because again, it comes back around to ANYTHING THAT PLEASES ZHAO YUNLAN AND KEEP HIM SAFE MAKES SHEN WEI HAPPY.

And... this is getting very long, so I think I will stop there.  ;D
