There's this fic that I've been thinking about for weeks now and I need to leave my thoughts somewhere
it's a Bingge x MQF fic (one of the only two tbh)
I really like the dynamic they have going on, MQF feeling pity for white lotus Bingge and doing little things to help him and little Bingge taking that kindness and develop an obsession with the man who gave him said kindness and wanting to keep that man to himself while the other does not reciprocate AT ALL.
Talk about a snow ball effect, yk
I thinking MQF thought of Bingge as just a poor unfortunate child who is suffering and wanting to help as much as he could and not much more. But Bingge probably thought of MQF a lot, yk, with the repay kindness tenfold and suffering a hundredfold or smt like that. Maybe fixated on any little interaction they had to know why MQF is helping him and then think more about it during those years in the Abyss.
Psot abyss could go different ways, Bingge follows the canon and kills eveybody and let's MQF live under the condition that it's with him (how the fic go) or Bingge just kidnaps MQF and lets Cang Qiong alone and use it as a threat to keep MQF to himself. Either way they are together by Bingge's will alone and MQF is there 'cus there's no other option.
You could argue that this is kind of like Bingyuan but hte thing about Bingyuan that in the end Shen Yuan loves LBH in everyway possible, MQF doesn't. At best he likes the kid and at worse he resents him for what he has done. And I kind of like that forced relationship. Then you could say that it's like Bingjiu, but it's also different because Bingge doesn't want MQF to prove who's better or who's the one in control know, it has a sweeter motive behind but still is an unhealthy relationship.
idk if I'm explaining myself well but MQF helping an abused kid snowball into MQF being held captive by the Demon Lord because he was that said kid. Love fucke up Bingge in a different way
