#don't worry mon ami this au is not going anywhere. i hope you can finish your work and have some free time to relax :D

[zykamiliah]

omg a Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun au would be amazing, I can't help but think the video game scene would go well with Sqh and Sy hahah-- but yeah you're right that's for another time lol

lbh unknowingly tried to give sy a bouquet they did for class and almost had a meltdown when he saw his yuan-ge’s eyes start watering.

I can just imagine SY face suddenly paralyzed not knowing how to react and then him tipping backwards in a slow fall-- and of course the one who catches him is Lqg. This has happened enough times already that he's developed a Five Sense of Protectiveness when it comes to Shen Yuan (and his sister of course, but funny thing-- SY has had more damsel in distress situations in those two years of being student in CQ High that all the female students in their year combined.)

Sqh would have to take Lbh aside at one point and explain the Host Club Dynamics to him (this would be a good exposition montage, with a whiteboard and everything) so Lbh doesn't mess up again. Those are the Unofficial Secrets Rules that everyone, guests included, must obey for the sake of keeping his business the Host Club intact. Among them are:

-Don't ask Yue Qingyuan about his love life (this is ofc before he graduates and goes to life with SJ) Other topics people are not allowed to ask about: his childhood, his relationship with the Shen-senpai)

-Guests should never invite Liu Qingge for tea, unless there's a third host making them company that can divert the attention from Lqg

-Shang Qinghua will drink tea with you for maybe 10 minutes before going back to his paperwork. (This obviously frustrates a lot of his fans but that's who it is. ehem specially mbj but he's paying extra to have more time with sqh so sqh makes an exception for him)

-Don't ask Shen Yuan his opinion about a Certain Piece of Literature. He'll either stay conspicuously silent or give a half an hour rant about why your opinions are wrong. (this rule is fairly new)

so sqh sits down and writes the best fanfiction of his friends for maximum self profit.

He better not let SY or SJ ever find out he's the writer. It would be soooo bad if someone (Luo Binghe) where to find out and the blackmailer became the blackmailed. How the tables have turn, Shang-senpai.

This incident opens a subplot of Mbj one day overhearing Lbh and Sqh talking in the back room of the Club and misinterpreting everything.

lbh: shang-senpai I want what you promised me (advanced chapters and more development with the kohai character)

sqh: hahahahahaha... like I said, I can't give it to you yet, I've been too busy lately, what with replacing four tea sets and the next tournament-

lbh: *looming bc he's getting tall* I won't ask twice, Shang-senpai

sqh: ah... *sweating* Give me a week?

lbh: *getting up in Sqh's personal space for maximum intimidation effect* Five days.

...Somehow Mbj gets the idea that Lbh is pressuring Sqh into giving him... something... And so the next time he and co. go to the gym he challenges Lbh again, and makes him promise that if he wins he'll let Sqh alone.

Obviously he loses and is very frustrated about it, but Sqh gets wind of the fight and goes to visit Mbj in the infirmary. Mbj tries to communicate his intentions

"If he does that again, you come to me."

Sqh is like: ?????? Who??? Do what??? Come to you for what??? He's very confused but he stays the whole afternoon by Mbj's bed doing paperwork. Mbj resolves to get into more fights that send him to the nurse.

Later he discovers that "revealing a vulnerable side to your intended" was actually a good tip. Where did Mbj get this love tip? Well there's a Love Advice column in the CQ High online page and in a moment of weakness he fell compelled to ask for help. (You decide who's running it lol)

she practices cooking and baking with him and helps him write a heartfelt letter along with every bento box he makes for sy.

I bet SY keeps all the letters in a little box :D During those two weeks Binghe was avoiding him he occasionally would take out a random letter, reread it and visibly sigh, not unlike a poor damsel whose fiance has gone off to the war and is waiting for his return, clinging to the letters to reassure herself.

This is how Sqh described his behavior after he caught him rereading one of the letters. He had to run for his life after speaking of course.

lmy is also one of the few people that will let him gush about his yuan-ge as much as he wants.

and what does SY gathers from watching Lbh and Lmy spending so much time together lately? Obviously the gently flames of young love blossoming! SY applauds and supports his little kouhai from the sidelines and gives him love advice, bc that's what a senpai is for. He has to help Binghe with his knowledge gained from experience! (reading tons of novels and manga)

"Binghe, remember to always treat the person you like with consideration, tenderness and respect. Not getting handsy before you've been giving permission, okay? And be careful, you *cough* you should always use protection Ehem. But you should definitely wait until you are of age *cough* Understand?"

Lbh looks very serious. "...That's what Yuan-ge thinks it should be?"

"Of course."

Lbh takes Sy's hands in his and looks him in the eye, solemn and intense. "I understand."

...What did you understand?

"Please wait for me, Yuan-ge."

Wait for what????

re: SY's new "heart condition" has MQF updating his file daily now. What Sy doesn't get is why it always acts up when he's around Luo Binghe! It's not like Binghe is wearing some flowery perfume that makes SY ill, right? If anything Lbh smells… spicy, very manly, as it's to be expected from his handsome kouhai

and too many failed confession scenes under the cherry blossom tree are made.

how many people have confessed and been gently rejected by Shen Yuan and how much vinegar has Luo Binghe chucked down spying said confessions (alongside Lmy and Nyy)?? Even after Lbh made that heartfelt proposal to him when he mistakenly thought Sy was getting married to YQY?

The bad thing about Yqy graduating is that Sy has some of the YQY fans asking for his company, as Yqy and him have a similar "good shixiong/senpai aura" to them. So now there are days SY has to entertain five guests at a time and has no much time to speak with Lbh in the club. But that means he's making up their lost time by going on (entirely platonic) dates with Binghe, having picnics in beautiful parks, visiting museums, shopping. Sy loves to pamper Lbh and now that Lbh has his own money to buy SY gifts (and when he's short on cash he can blackmail Sqh a little bit for pocket money).

In one of those shopping dates, SY went inside the changing room to try something and as he was shrugging of his shirt he looked at the mirror... and there was a guy!! A creepy, silent guy! Inside the changing room! With him!

And it had a snake! Wtf!!

"My snake was feeling a bit dizzy from all the perfume in the air so I came in here to calm her down."

...How did that explain anything???

"Yuan-ge, are you okay? Do you need help?"

Sy raises his voice, "N-No, I'm okay! Just a minute!"

The creepy stranger with the snake looks at him without blinking, leans forward a bit and says softly

"Don't worry, she doesn't bite."

...

Shen Yuan puts on his shirt, not even trying the new one, goes out of the changing room, grabs Binghe and their bags and power-walks the hell out of there.

He has no idea what's waiting for him the next day at school :DDDD
