Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign-ups!

Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!

NEW: We've made a register! There is now a searchable Google spreadsheet index of the canons promoted on this post. Go ahead and add yours or any you see that are missing! We hope this helps connect people up with canons of interest to them.

Useful tip (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):


- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.

Legend of Yun Qian (2020)

[ginkgofan]

Title: Legend of Yun Qian

Media: Live Action TV Miniseries

Approx length: 15 episodes of a few minutes each; the whole series is about 53 minutes long.

Where to find it: on youtube with English subs (Links here: https://legendofyunze.carrd.co/#legendofyunqian)

What is it, in summary?: A Chinese lesbian romance involving time travel between a historical fantasy setting and the modern world. It's mostly cute and lighthearted, but the plot does get very dramatic before the ending.

Mu Yun is a strict and reserved disciple of the dwindling Lingchuan Sect. It is her duty to guard the Fans of Heaven and Earth. Hua Yue, the only other disciple, isn't interested in studying and just wants to have a good time. She uses one of the fans to travel through time to the future (the modern world) and meets Xiao Qian, a girl who looks exactly like her. Xiao Qian travels back in time using the fan and meets the "icy beauty" Mu Yun. Romance, adventure, and domestic fluff ensue.

What do you love about it?: It's f/f xianxia with added time travel! The dynamic between the stoic but protective Mu Yun and the flirtatious and friendly Xiao Qian is very enjoyable. There's a good mix of dramatic plot and lighthearted humor (Mu Yun's contest of wills with Xiao Qian's cat is hilarious.) The antagonist, Hong Yan, is a very interesting character with a tragic backstory involving a lesbian romance of her own.

What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: Post-canon stuff! There is lots of room for either plot-focused further adventures or just pure domestic fluff and romance, and either would be lovely. I also included Hua Yue in my nominated characters because she basically disappears from the story early on and I would love something about what happens to her parallel to the main story.

Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?: Not really, but it's a short canon.

Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Some violence, blood, and death, nothing atypical for the genre
