#I think that cumplane+mobing one will make it...

[domoz-writes]

Fistfighting myself not to add more fics to the wip list for at least 2 more weeks...

blah blah blah moshang/bingqiu fic that seems like your stereotypical bodyguard/noble fic but no one realizes shang qinghua is the noble and shen yuan is actually just the third son of a mildly prestigious family who became a knight.

shang qinghua is arranged to be married to mobei-jun and luo binghe, mbj's assistant, is the one whoe escorts him and his knight sy to the castle. the journey is pretty long so they end up talking to each other and luo binghe somehow comes to the conclusion that shen yuan is the prince.

shang qinghua doesnt bother to correct him and he orders cucumber-bro not to. to him it makes sense because hes not really princely. plus he can admit shen yuan is extremely unintentionally seductive and lbh is clearly already smitten anyway. plus its super fucking funny to see cucumber-bro completely oblivious to lbh's desperate pining.

(luo binghe's inner monologue: i can't,,,he's my lord's betrothed,,,but he's so kind,,,so lovely,,,i must Resist my base urges,,,)

anyway they finally make it to the palace and lbh is crushed that shen yuan doesnt seem sad at all (is he just fine with marrying a complete stranger? even his bodyguard is sadder than he is!)

before the "official meeting" shang qinghua literally runs into mobei-jun. b/c he's gotten into the bodyguard role he immediately prostates himself and apologizes. cue shock from lbh when mobei-jun falls over himself (well, reaches down 1% quicker than usual) to help his fiance up.

lbh: is my lord smitten with...the ugly rat man? ths servant? when yuan-ge is right there???

(yes they've dropped honorifics, they dropped honorifics like 1 day into the journey bc shen yuan doesnt know what boundaries are)

mobei-jun for his part is completely perplexed. shang qinghua is obviously his future empress, who else would it be?

lbh ofc doesnt care about the whole trickery thing once he realizes he can court shizun to his hearts desire.

bonus cumplane double wedding. everyone thinks mobing were the ones who arranged it because cumplane get into a violent fight during the feast. actually luo binghe cried for 10 straight hours at his shizun's feet trying to convince him to change his mind.

So they’re like that classic Shonen trope of bringing over the broody antihero to your side by homoerotic sword play and visions of the future? Where the two characters have far more chemistry then the designated pink love interest/harem? Those slash fan girls probably had a lot more food then SY realized. I actually saw a post earlier this week with a bunch of Chinese guys who’d been tricked into reading MXTX works by their adaptations and being blindsided by the kissing. I think SY sadly isn’t that much of an outlier in society. I wonder if part of the reason Airplane started using MBJ less and less in his work wasn’t just because he was afraid of someone figuring out his preferences.

Ugh, MBJ being initially horrified by his own attraction to a half human but slowly coming around as Bingge falls more and more into demonic culture. LBH never letting himself think about his male attraction because of trauma but maybe trying to test himself in the arms of the one man he knows is completely loyal to him after his run in with nice Shizun. The weird power play they’d have in bed. Honestly, MBJ and Bingge are probably practically married by Demon standards, or at least are a Martial brother equivalent.

I’m loving this MoBing manifesto! It’s also making me think of maybe making a post ranking SVSSS pairings by how much they are just reskinnings of Cumplane. Scale starts at Cumplane and ends at like Six BallsxZhuzi-Lang. I don’t know.

PIDW!MOBEI-JUN HAS A CRUSH ON BINGGE

exhibit 1

Demons were compelled to viciously bully the person they liked. Only if the object of their affections failed to die would the demon accept them. If their target died, that meant they were useless and not worth nursing any lingering affections for. (Chapter 3: Favor Points)

exhibit 2

Mobei-Jun thought about it. With the paths his mind was given to take, there was no telling how he had interpreted “unique” feelings. “Beat them up three times a day?” (Chapter 26: Airplane's Fortuitous Encounter)

exhibit 3

Mobei-Jun was a pure-blooded demon, a supremely orthodox demonic second-gen. In the future, he would inherit his family’s territory on the demonic border in the north, and after that, he would spend all his time appearing and disappearing at will, idling his life away, completely indifferent to everyone else. However, this maverick was destined to get beaten up by a Luo Binghe who had suddenly activated his overpowered abilities. Thereafter, he would mysteriously capitulate to the protagonist, to the point of letting himself be ordered about. From then on, Luo Binghe would have an exceptionally badass-looking errand boy and loyal sidekick. (Chapter 4: Conference)

MOBING IS REAL (at least from mbj's side)

(i doubt he knows he has a crush but you can't tell me that "mysteriously capitulating to the protagonist" isn't code for gay feelings)
