Ok so I had this thought and maybe I’m on to something, maybe I’m not.
So remember this panel:
Mo calls out for his dad during what seems to be the destruction of their restaurant and maybe the attemptted kidnapping of baby Mo? (Or just someone trying to hurt him I dunno) either way. Mo calls out for is dad and immediately his dad comes and Randy Ortons this guy through a table to save Mo. Little Mo had that sense of physical security with his father.
With his mother he still had that sense of security but it was mostly like emotional:
Especially in that one panel with baby She Li (I would find it but I’m too lazy) where she’s trying to calm Mo down and telling him it will stop hurting soon. I think as a kid Mo felt physically protected by his mother but eventually when he started to grow he realized that he had to protect his mom. So he was never really able to have that sense of security (thus he got so callous and distant from everyone). I think Mo just thought that he was on his own but deep down he was probably still scared out of his mind.
So when he met She Li he was like “hey you’re a good source of protection because you have so many people who look out for each other.” Naively, Mo probably would have joined the gang for that purpose, to be safe. And maybe somewhere along the line She Li did actually save him from someone trying to hurt/take him again (not because he actually cared but because he wanted something from Mo). And maybe that’s why he joined, I’m not sure. But this would explain why She Li is always has that “I’m the one who gripped you tight and raised you from perdition” vibe going on:
BBBBUUUUTTTTT then Mo met He Tian. And at first he tian was a jerk and just another person trying to take advantage of Mo (like with the whole kiss thing with the water bottle). But then the relationship started to evolve. I think when He Tian actually did physically protect Mo is when the scales in Mo’s mind started tipping.
Now Mo actually has friends and He Tian to protect him. He finally found what he wanted all along. That group of people who are looking out for each other.
ANNYYWWAAAYYYYYYY if you’ve read this far thanks for listening to my horribly long rant!

Hey so I’m not dead! But I had a crazy dream the other night and I wanna make it into a story. Let me know if y’all would read this. So there was a guy and a girl(probs like 18 and 17). And they both came from really crappy homes but the girl would hang out with the guy a lot because he would protect her. Also he would low key kill people because he was really good at it. So one day these things were attacking but the only way you could see them was if you had special goggles on that let you see their glow at night. So the guy had to go kill them because it’s the only way to save everyone else. But there was like 1,000 of them and only him so the girl was obviously very worried.
There’s some more details and other characters but that’s the basics of my dream. Should I write this?

Imagine He Tian waking up in the morning to random music and singing coming from in his kitchen and going to investigate. Him seeing Mo GuanShan making breakfast while dancing and singing to a song (like stupid dancing and singing. Being a total goof singing along to some obscure pop/alternative song). And he tian standing in the door way with his head leaning against it just watching his little Mo have the time of his life being able to actually move around and stuff in this big kitchen. And mo not noticing him at all so when the softer part of the song comes He Tian sings it with Mo and it’s like this cute/awkward moment. Also He Tian has a really nice voice and Mo doesn’t know what to do about it
I’ve had this head cannon for a really long time and I wanna try to draw it (???) or something but for right now this is what I’m thinking of and I feel like the fandom needs this fluff XD

Actually video evidence of He Tian and Mo GuanShan interacting

Mo gets really bratty/snippy with He Tian (more than usual) if he doesn’t get enough attention
(This may or may not turn into a fic.... May or may not be nsfw....)

More jewelry! I made it out of a cat ears headband, a bracelet piece, wire, a rock and of course hot glue and paint 🖤👁🖤
Excuse the horrible sketch and disproportionate bodies but I had too. Lol
More late night aesthetic! Just black and good this time not lavender. I guess this is me wanting a tattoo?
Color is difficult sometimes
