Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 1/? anonymous September 14 2009, 06:00:50 UTC

For the anon(s) that requested revolutionary!Rorschach back in the second KM. I'm still working on it, but thought I'd release the first bit for now. Had to Sinify their names... it won't be too hard to figure out who is who.

Warnings: historical inaccuracy, really strange subject matter (but this is the KM, so maybe it's not one of the weirder ones??), probably lots of political incorrectness. Be willing to suspend your disbelief more than usual... I still can't believe I wrote this.

Boxing Days (part 1 ( ... )

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 8a/? anonymous September 19 2009, 20:05:09 UTC

Nuuuuuu whyyyyyy. DD:

But really, I'm a-ok with whatever you do. Angst followed by happiness *hinthint* is always better than the other way around.

Forgot to say this earlier, but GAH THE SHIRT REMOVING SCENE. Oh, the repression! The tension! Which all adds up to being really hot despite nothing actually happening.

And the way you wrote the dialogue without quotation marks - reminds me of how the French do it in the few French books I've read. It kind of makes the dialogue meld together with the narration, and all the mixing up really adds to the mood. If that makes any sense. *wishes to have your articulation skills*

More incoherent squeeing here, because, dear god, this is beyond incredible. I want to give Red and hug, and when Deng hugs him...OMG.

Other things I love, y'know, beyond the entire thing: the way Deng's feelings for Red are tied into the politics, working in lines/idea directly from the GN, shirt removal nnrgg.

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 8a/? anonymous September 18 2009, 21:36:24 UTC

PS- These protests are now on my list of Things I Want to Learn About. I've been trying to expand my non-fiction reading, so thank you for giving me something to look into. :)

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 8a/? radishface September 19 2009, 04:10:56 UTC

Thank you! <3

The shirt removal part was definitely really fun to write. I almost had them go... well... further along, but Chinese people circa the 1980s are still pretty repressed (in contrast with their Western/American counterparts). Not to mention Ror is repressed no matter what universe he's in.

the way Deng's feelings for Red are tied into the politicsI find the Dan/Ror relationship is always tied to politics one way or another--standing up in the face of gov't corruption, immorality, and other timeless sorts of political/social evils. But it's fun to play with the China concept, since the spirit of the times is so focused on symbolism and martyrs and grand gestures (that's just the way Chinese history seems to work), and Dan has always been susceptible to his environment, being a sort of natural empath and all ( ... )

This is amazing. I'm glad you de-anoned-you should be damned proud.

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 8a/? radishface September 19 2009, 17:01:17 UTC

Thank you so much! *flails* That's such a nice thing to say. :) I'm glad you like the fic!

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 8a/? daylilymoon September 19 2009, 18:52:15 UTC

I never know what to say on this, because it really just takes my breath away. Gonna say again that I LOVE the tone and the imagery. It seems like there's a unique way of describing everything in this, and I'm always looking forward to see what new descriptive language is coming up next. :D

This is my favorite paragraph here:
--Yes, yes, Deng says, exaltation more than an agreement and his own fingers are moving of their own will, twisting on each button, slowing his pace as he moves south. Red's stomach ripples under his touch, and he inches his face into the juncture of the other man's neck and shoulder, holds there, in as much as out, ghost-breaths belying the frantic shuddering of his own heart and the possibility of things.

It's so delicate, just like that whole scene.

The very ending part here is so moving, as if he feels now that this is going to take them both apart.

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 8a/? radishface September 20 2009, 02:41:31 UTC

Awww thank you! ^^ Warms my heart to know that this writing style works.

And CAN I SAY HOW EXCITED I AM to sink my teeth into your Western!AU? I've not been very diligent about scouring the old KMs for fic but I am so glad that you made a masterpost for it! xD xD

Okay, going to post the next part to this now...

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 9a/11 radishface September 20 2009, 02:45:06 UTC

The journey back to the university walks along tension's fine line. When they reach the shadows of the dormitory, Deng does not hold himself back ( ... )

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 9b/11 radishface September 20 2009, 02:57:24 UTC

His lips hover above Red's and then close the gap, shy at first and then stronger when the other man's lips part against his with a shaky sigh. Deng slides his tongue along Red's teeth, feels out the chip off the middle one, tastes salt where the lip creases at the side ( ... )

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 9b/11 tuff_ghost September 20 2009, 03:20:13 UTC

this is the first time that Deng has really felt like he's wanted something more than anything else-

the crowd-ocean that is inextricably tied to them

That's such a brilliant adaptation of Dan, how here it's Red and the spirit of protest stirring him out of his natural inertia, where in canon it was Rorschach and the adventure of being a mask, the person and the experience being conflated in both cases. This was a gorgeous first-time scene and my hope was absolutely realized: this IS one of the km's great AU epics.

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 9b/11 radishface September 20 2009, 18:27:15 UTC

I've always thought that Dan was a bit of a romantic, and it'd be easy for him to conflate things beyond their original meanings or purposes.

This was a gorgeous first-time scene and my hope was absolutely realized: this IS one of the km's great AU epics.

Wow, thank you. *humbled*

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 9b/11 anonymous September 20 2009, 18:46:17 UTC

That second to last line is making my heart ache. I know there's going to be angst, and I'm all the more worried about it because this moment between them is so beautiful and touching and I want them to have it forever. ;_;

(Not that I'm not desperately f5ing for more.)

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 9b/11 radishface September 20 2009, 23:37:25 UTC

Aww thank you. ^^ Alas, beautiful and touching moments are not forever (unless you're Jon).

Next part coming up soon! :D Therewillbeangstthoughpleasedon'thurtme*hides*

Re: Boxing Days (Tiananmen Square AU), part 9b/11 anonymous September 20 2009, 19:47:13 UTC

D':

Second-last sentence. And "breathing into each other". Ah god, I don't know why that gets me so much, but augh. This moment is just too perfect.

Have a cyber-glomp as proof of my adoration.
