#mxtx did the mood stabilizers not kick in properly

[muzsmocsing]

Let's recap chapter 1 of SVSSS book 3 because I'm ✨overwhelmed✨

Mushroom man and heterosexual extraordinaire Shen Qingqiu gets dragged into the demon realm by ex student/pseudo adoptive son/now love interest Luo Binghe.

He's imprisoned in a house modeled after the one in Binghe's last year of happiness, and gets told he shall never leave again.

Binghe cooks him a fantastic dinner.

Shang Qinghua pops by to say "good luck with the gay shit dawg but that is not my problem lmao".

Binghe confesses his feelings and SQQ responds with just "be fr. and get it together."

They start fighting and when Binghe almost moans at SQQ beating him proper he starts to ponder his pedagogical failures.

Luo Binghe shreds SQQ's clothes (AGAIN???) and almost assaults him, only being interrupted by a migraine of biblical proportions.

Which is apparently caused by him being soul snatched into his old body????

Leaving the fungal vessel to decay, like those champignons in the back of the fridge you promised yourself to use up, in the arms of the already very mentally unstable Luo Binghe, who will definitely process this sudden turn of events in a healthy, reasonable way.
