    Summary

    【INITIATING MISSION: ‘Become a True Catboy or Fucking Explode!’ ₍^>ヮ<^₎ .ᐟ.ᐟ START】Shen Yuan transmigrates into early PIDW as a cat demon and gets picked up by the scum villain! Now his system keeps giving him cat-related missions such as ‘cats must play!’ or ‘all cats purr!’ and even ‘cats often go into heat!’. Ignore that last one, actually.

    So begins Shen Yuan’s balancing act of completing these nonsensical missions, hiding his identity, and staying on the good side of the super tsundere, cat-like man known as Shen Jiu, who keeps saying stuff like ‘I’ll kill you if I find out you’re a demon’.

    TDLR; this whole fic is an elaborate excuse to write catboy!SY going into heat.

    Summary

    Jon stares at him, searching for a trace of humor in his expression or tone. Maybe this is part of a roleplay? Jon truly hates roleplays. “Intercourse, Martin.”

    Martin doesn't blink.

    Jon fights the urge to roll his eyes. “Sex,” he spells out dryly. “Copulating, coitus, fucking.”

    Excuse me?” Martin squeaks.

    “You’re excused. Can we please just get on with it?”

    Martin accidentally summons a demon. It goes about as well as expected.

    Summary

    “Fine,” Jon says, and he tries to ignore the sulky tone of his voice, “fine. What do you suggest?”

    Martin pauses, like he’d not expected Jon to give in so easily. Jon’s never been particularly agreeable, but he still feels vaguely offended by the blatant surprise. “W-we,” Martin stammers, clears his throat, continues on much more confidently, “we go in together.”

    Or: it takes close quarters and a full 24 hours to finally get them on the same page.
