i like words a normal amount

say what you like about him but i have a lot of respect for luo binghe’s courtship methods. like he tried the “look what you’re missing out on” approach okay, he gave it a fair go. “look how cool and hot and powerful i am” is a straight up classic and he had it nailed down, he had his evil sword and dramatic poses to strike, he was locked tf in. but then when that failed to work he pivoted like a champion, going from his sexy badass persona to full-on sad kitten out in the rain, and i don’t think he gets enough credit for that. he is a grownass demonic emperor with subjects and presumably a lot of enemies looking for weakness, and yet he has fully committed to the untried and extremely specific “warbling baby bird” approach to wooing shen qingqiu. he is wailing and clinging to the best of his exceptional ability, all dignity abandoned, to get his man. that’s dedication.

If Binggeyuan were friends with benefits bingge would internally go "no one can find out, I can't have people thinking I'm gay or something" and shen yuan would be picking his pants off the floor as he says "let's not tell anyone about this since we're not actually gay" and Bingge would immediately be so offended?? Hello?? Does shen yuan not want to brag about bagging LUO BINGHE? Why is sy hiding him like he's some dirty little secret he's ashamed of?? Then he'd tell everyone just because shen yuan asked him not to
