#modern fengqing being soft and in love

[fqrot]

mu qing would never admit it out loud but he loves the slow mornings when he gets to wake up in feng xin’s embrace and just listen to the steady beating of his heart and look at his (infuriatingly handsome) face until feng xin, too, wakes up.

they lay in bed for at least half an hour, just talking about their plans for the day and kissing, before feng xin eventually gets up to make breakfast for mu qing and himself. mq gets ready in the meantime; sometimes he asks feng xin to help him pick out an outfit, and sometimes he wears a piece of clothing that makes feng xin suck in a sharp breath and blush like crazy the moment mq steps into the kitchen—like a shirt with an open back, a crop top or ripped jeans. mu qing knows exactly what kind of thoughts go through feng xin’s head at that moment, and he loves that he’s the only person who can make feng xin feel so flustered.

later they eat breakfast together—usually one of mu qing’s favorite foods—and easily slip into banter, teasing each other and arguing about small, unimportant things.

their cat wakes up and starts begging for pets at that point—one of mu qing’s favorite activities is petting the kitty, listening to its content purrs and carding his fingers through the soft fur. and if his full attention wasn’t on the animal, he would notice feng xin watching him with nothing short of adoration in his eyes.

they can only have a slow, unhurried morning like this on weekends, which means that after getting ready they have the rest of the day for themselves, and they usually go on an impromptu date to one of their favorite cafes, or to the park, or the mall to buy some new clothes (feng xin is perfectly fine with his two pairs of jeans and six t-shirts, but he loves watching mu qing try on different tops, skirts and jumpsuits and complimenting mq every chance he gets).

it doesn’t really matter where they choose to go as long as they can spend the day together, far away from their work responsibilities. and even if mu qing refuses to say it out loud, his happiness and gratitude are evident in the way he reaches for feng xin’s hand, immediately interlacing their fingers, and in the passion behind the kisses he occasionally gives feng xin on the lips (mu qing thinks pda is embarrassing, but sometimes he’s willing to make an exception, just for feng xin).

mu qing loves feng xin, and he loves spending time with him.

omg i just read the „London Calling” since you recommended it and respectfully holy guacamoly, it was so good, no wonder it’s your favourite, i especially enjoyed it since i visited london for the first time like a month ago AND THE PRIDE of knowing what they’re talking about was enough to let my ego rise, thanks so much for recommending this it was awesome please drop more im a starving man in the middle of the desert with 50 fengqing bookmarks and over 200 read fics abt them

YES!! LONDON CALLING IS SO GOOD!! I fully understand the pride of understanding what's going on lol - I'm actually English, so being able to read and comprehend something without having to remember Americanisms was so fun lol. The most accurate London I've ever seen in fanfic and that earns it a soft spot in my heart. Also, it's just so cute!

Some other recs I have are:

This fic, which is another modern au get-together, and one of the first fics I read for fengqing :) it's a 24k oneshot and SOOOO good!!

There's this one!! which is just.... these fools <3 it's a 6k oneshot and very funny :)

AND THIS ONE!!! its so sweet, i absolutely love modern au childhood best friends Xianle Trio, and this one is very similar to a massive au my friend @astrowaffles and I have going on, so it makes me smile :))

And, for Cheap Villain fans, here's another fengqing transmigration fic!! It's really good :D

And what kind of fic writer would I be if i didn't plug in a oneshot of my own?

A, T, W, X please :)

A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed

Listen, I’m a very soft potato who falls in characters’ love easily, so listing all my favourite relationships is close to impossible, hahaha. Let’s see… BakuDeku remains my emotional support ship, in every possible version, and I don’t take constructive criticism. Maybe I don’t show it often enough, but TodoMomo is my second fav.  Even if they don’t have many moments together, I cherish every little one. They’re precious. From platonic relationships, All Might and Deku are always number one Hero Dad and Son. 

I might be boring but I love WangXian with all my heart, and BingQiu with my other heart. I’m also a big big big BeefLeaf fan. Now it’s time to throw rocks at me - be gentle - because it’s probably my most beloved HOB couple. Sorry. But I’m certain that I love every relationship in MXTX works? Recently I’m more and more found of FengQing. Don’t you think that Mu Qing and Bakugou have very different temperaments and yet very similar characters? As you can see, I have a pattern. BNHA and MXTX are my current fandoms, so I think I’ll stick to them but believe me. I have more. Much more. 

T - Do you have any hard and fast headcanons that you will die defending?

I have more than many headcanons, but choosing from all my fandoms is quite difficult. Hm. One of the ideas I’d shield with my own body is ‘Deku and Kacchan become partners as professional heros’. Shipping aside, I think we’re at this point where it was mentioned enough how they complement each other, learn from each other and can be better heros together. If it’s not going towards working side by side - and I think it does - I’m gonna be very disappointed. For a long time I was in the ‘If Deku is Midoriya’s hero name, Kacchan should be Bakugou’s hero name’ team, but recently I saw a very good commentary on how those two nicknames have different weight and though I still support this idea, I can also agree with other versions.

In this life, you can take away ‘He Xuan and Shi Qing Xuan work on their past and one day they’re happy together’ only from my cold dead hands. I’m not kidding, I have a very detailed story about them growing, mourning and living a happy family life. Oh, I know one more! Considering HuaLian are gods/demons and cultivators can be immortal, I adore the idea of the three main pairs living past their lifetimes and enjoying comfort of the modern society, where they meet the couple from the upcoming fourth novel. 

W - A trope which you are virtually certain to hate in any fandom.

Ok, this is a very hard question because for me, tropes are nothing more than material and every trope can be done both good and bad? It depends on your author’s craft. MXTX gave me a lesson; there’s a bunch of tropes I usually dislike and yet I loved them in her writing. She portrays certain topics in way that is really enjoyable and believable. 

I have some tropes which are, in my humble opinion, usually done bad. One of them is jealousy shown as a sign of love. I get it, everyone gets a little jealous when they care, but morbid jealousy and making a scene because of any word said to somebody else is not cute or romantic. I can accept it only as a recognized issue and a character flaw. I dislike ‘strong and independent female characters’ - usually they have personality of a fly hitting a closed window. Give them a weapon, tell to attack glass and call it progressive. A sword is not interesting. A well-developed character is interesting. Double points if said independent woman criticizes feminine girls… don’t do it or I’ll bite you. I’m not the biggest fan of miscommunication creating conflict, or ‘opposites attracts’ as it usually comes down to ‘we have nothing in common but we spent some time together and apparently it’s enough to fall in love’. But look, WangXian was able to use both these tropes perfectly! So it’s really not about the topic, but about execution. I have mixed feelings about good character/bad character ships; it’s one of my favourite tropes (look: BeefLeaf) but usually it’s either a masochistic relationship where one side is treated like shit, or it makes the bad character look like a loser/idiot. This trope has potential, why does nobody use it right? 

X - A trope which you are almost certain to love in any fandom.

Again, I’m the type who can love almost any trope but you already know it ;)

He Xuan is my favourite trope: a) a good betrayal with solid forshadowing, this is when angst hits the most, b) negative characters with human feelings who care about some people, yet in the end stay evil. What else… I absolutely love parallels. Give me history repeating itself, characters following up their parents’ mistakes, a hero and a villain portrayed as a crooked mirror. Any kind of hidden parallelism fires up my soul. I have also a soft spot for… give me a minute, it’s 1 am and I don’t know how to describe this trope. Characters who are very proud and ambitious but at the same time suffer from low self-esteem. Characters knowing that they’re talented, but never being good enough. I’m fine with zeros to heros, but I’m much more affected with characters who are almost there but who can never reach for the highest spot.
