The blurb is up in my collection. It’s a cozy farming story about raising monsters, with a bit of showbiz. If you’re interested, click through and have a look~] A school story with a strong top and a weak bottom. [Important: the bottom is weak] A white rabbit spirit who has cultivated into human form teaches at a middle school. Because he’s been very diligent in his cultivation, the rabbit spirit can hide his aura perfectly. One day, a new student transfers into the class Mr. Rabbit teaches. The transfer student is a wolf spirit and a star athlete: tall, handsome, and from a wealthy family. But he hasn’t shed his wolfish nature. He’s arrogant and unruly, causing trouble all the time. He won’t study or cultivate properly, and his wolf parents are going gray with worry. Because the little gray wolf is always slacking off in his cultivation, he can’t hide his aura. Mr. Rabbit sees right through him at their first meeting. A white rabbit can’t overcome its instinctive fear of a gray wolf, so Mr. Rabbit is especially frightened. Every time he sees the little wolf, his legs turn to jelly… [Little scene] The little wolf is rebellious. He gets into fights, skips class, and never turns in his homework. Mr. Rabbit, determined to be responsible for his student, steels himself and calls the little wolf to the office for a scolding. But as he goes on, he gets so scared that he starts crying, feeling both frightened and wronged. Wolf boy: “…Teacher, don’t cry. I was wrong. I won’t skip class anymore. I’ll do my homework properly, okay? Please don’t cry…” [Character notes and content warnings. Please read to avoid anything you don’t like.] 1. Naive and sweet + younger top + strong top and weak bottom + mutual devotion, with the top doting on the bottom a little more + more from the bottom’s perspective than the top’s + fairytale style, not realistic. Important: a soft, adorable, weak bottom. Weak bottom, weak~~~~ bottom~~~~~~~! Read it with me: I love weak bottoms. I’ll love them for ten thousand years. If that’s not your thing, proceed with caution~ 2. The top has repeated a grade. He’s in his second year of high school when the story opens and is eighteen, an adult. They get together after graduating high school. 3. The top is younger. 4. For more detailed content warnings, see the author’s note in Chapter One. From now on, please call me the bomb-disposal expert, or the survival-game performance artist. Thanks~ [A note: I posted this idea on Weibo in March 2017, but didn’t start writing it until 2018. I think the white rabbit and gray wolf pairing is extremely common and not original to anyone; anyone can write it. Still, to avoid any possible misunderstandings, I’m mentioning when I first posted the idea. Search “teacher” on my Weibo to find the original post.] Theme:
