Guardian: picspam: A Dog's Den
title: A Dog's Den (Zhao Yunlan's home)
fandom: Guardian
type: picspam
Note: In the novel, Zhao Yunlan's home is described as a dog's lair, which I believe is similar to the English phrase "a pigsty." I refuse to refer to it as a man-cave even for the sake of the prompt, but it's definitely a bachelor pad!
For the purposes of spatial discussions, I am designating the wall with the front door as NORTH.
1. Zhao Yunlan lives in a turret
There are windows on the west wall (over the kitchen sink) and the west-facing alcove (head of the bed)
There are windows on the south wall (all those window alcoves!)
There's at least one more room through a doorway in the east side of the main room. We never go in there and only get to peer through the doorway -- but in this photo you can clearly see the windows in the far east wall.
Oh, and this weird panel by the front door into what I think is actually maybe the bathroom? There's a door into that area on the south side, at least, so I don't think it's an air shaft.
2. Zhao Yunlan keeps a straight line between his bed, the fridge, and the door
Shen Wei is facing the south wall. Note the bed to his right and the door behind him. The fridge is just visible at the right edge of the photo.
Here's the fridge again, the gray-green thing just to Zhao Yunlan's right. He's looking into the kitchen, which you may notice is nowhere near the fridge.
(See that wooden horse on the shelf behind him? We have one of those! It's a museum reproduction, but I can't recall what it's from. No raccoon on a scooter, though.)
This is the kitchen, with dirty dishes stacked to the top of the sink. Would you want to have to navigate that first thing in the morning? Me, neither.
(He does have what I think is a coffee maker down near the rice cooker at the other end of the kitchen. I have a hard time imagining he ever makes it that far into his kitchen in the mornings.)
3. What strange decor you have, Zhao Yunlan!
There's a yellow-lit shelf of alcohol bottles, to match the yellow-lit table of alcohol bottles. Oh, and a fish bowl with a live fish! Next to the robot-lamp.
There's an animal skull on the table to Shen Wei's right, next to the stone lantern. Note the sports equipment on the north wall and the license plates on the south one.
Also note the glowing ceiling, then go back and look at all the light sources in this place. Zhao Yunlan has a million lamps, and they're all on most of the time -- including the white motorcycle lamp at the eating counter!
Da Qing's blue jacket is on a hook by the door; he's also got a tire and a swing by the big window seat on the south wall.
There are just so many interesting things here!
Oh, and he also has a weirdly reflective thing over his stove. Maybe it's an exhaust fan?
To sum up: Zhao Yunlan has a vastly interesting home, and I wonder about the stories behind every single thing in it.
