could not stop thinking about this post from @red-garden
Luo Binghe didn't expect to see his Shizun on this mission. He isn't ready yet, he isn't enough yet- but he cannot let this opportunity slip by. Cannot let Shizun think that he is content with the polite distance they had affected when surrounded by Huan Hua disciples.
He's definitely read and hasn't been standing outside Shizun's door for a few minutes now, gathering the strength to face Shizun. He's spent the hours since they met planning what he was going to say, every possible reaction Shizun could have. He can do this. Luo Binghe can fix whatever mistake he made and Shizun will love him again.
But Shizun doesn't answer when he knocks. He can hear Shizun shuffling in the room, the sound of fabric shifting. Shizun doesn't answer or open the door when Luo Binghe knocks again.
Surely Shizun isn't ignoring him. He wouldn't do that. Even if Shizun hated him he wouldn't ignore him. He can't. Luo Binghe won't let him. He cannot fix this if Shizun ignores him. He just needs to talk to him, to see him, to get past this door.
Luo Binghe doesn't even have to break the lock, the door opens with no resistance, and well, better to ask for forgiveness instead of permi-
Luo Binghe has just intruded into a nesting omega's space. Shizun is nesting and Luo Binghe has just waltzed in like he has any right to be here, with Shizun at his most vulnerable- (but he wants it, with every fiber of his being. He wants to be in Shizun's nest, where only close family and friends are invited. He wants he wants he wants)
Luo Binghe needs to leave, he needs to retreat and regather his thoughts. He needs new plans, he cannot mess this up. None of his plans accounted for Shizun going into heat. Omegas are mostly instinct and pheromones during their heat- Shizun isn't going to be swayed by logical arguments or lofty acheivements. Shizun is only going to see the demon that is Luo Binghe. And who would want a demon in their nest?
Shizun has noticed him. Luo Binghe wasted too much time panicking like some sort of simple-minded fool. He braces himself for rejection, again.
But it isn't "stay back" or "danger" or any other threat or warning pheromone that reaches him. Luo Binghe is hit with a litany of "my child baby come here my beloved mine come to me" with Shizun's open arms beckoning.
Luo Binghe throws himself to the floor and crawls to Shizun, the iron clad control he'd spent years painstakingly building - crumbles under Shizun's gentle hands. Luo Binghe can't stop the tears or the reveal of his demonic traits the way he can't stop loving Shizun.
Shizun kisses him on the forehead, and scents him. Rubs his face and neck over Luo Binghe's. "My pack, my family, my child," the scent says. Shizun still smells the same under the pheromones. Like lavender oil, ink, and bamboo. He still uses the same soaps and oils Binghe had selected for him as a disciple. He smells like home.
Shizun purrs and pets his hair, and his scent says "I am here, all is well."
Anyway from SQQ's POV it's like this:
Except, y'know. Shen Qingqiu has no idea how to swaddle an infant. Or an adult.
What he did is he stood LBH up and wrapped two blankets around him burrito style. That bitch is now tucked the fuck in. SQQ is Winning in Omega. Which is both possible to achieve and normal to want.
LBH can totally handle this. This is fine. (LBH almost has Qi Deviation when SQQ joins the nest and instead of laying next to him, lies ON TOP OF HIM. PURRING.)
