The Poor Little Thing Is a Catastrophe of the Highest Order

An Wu is a little monster born in a laboratory.

After being subjected to excessive drug experiments for a long time, he is frail, hard of hearing, and losing his mobility. Most of the time, he can only curl up alone in the high-security containment zone, waiting for the next experiment.

Then one day, a piercing alarm rang, and for the first time, An Wu saw a glaring splash of red in the pure white laboratory.

Amid the sound of artillery fire and the chaos of running footsteps, the researchers fled. People in black military uniforms moved with practiced efficiency, apprehending and disarming them... and discovered An Wu locked inside the high-security containment zone.

The person at their head opened the glass enclosure. He wore a moon-white military uniform and had a cold expression, standing out unmistakably among all the black. Without hesitation, he gripped An Wu's face, apparently assessing how dangerous he was.

An Wu's cheek was squeezed out of shape. He blinked, then offered the other man his arm, covered in pinprick marks.

His hearing was almost gone. He hadn't heard a thing, but An Wu guessed they were changing the people who would experiment on him.

The man holding his face froze for a long moment, then gently let go.

Looking at An Wu's flushed cheek, the man furrowed his brow, took off his moon-white military jacket, and picked him up.

For the first time, An Wu left the thick glass enclosure of the laboratory's high-security containment zone.

[Containment File | S-01]

Name: An Wu

Threat Level: S1

Species: Tentacle Monster

Characteristics: Skilled at mimicry, with an extremely powerful regenerative ability. Its true form consists of transparent tentacles and it can cause humans to become pregnant with eggs. It is difficult to kill. Electric shocks, starvation, oxygen deprivation, and viruses are all ineffective.

Recommendation: Send to K107 Research Institute to assist with biochemical weapons testing.

[Notes]

This contained entity can easily [bewitch the mind], inspiring feelings of pity. A similar tentacle monster once captured dozens of researchers during its mature phase to serve as hosts for its eggs, causing irreparable harm. Do not speak to it! Do not meet its gaze!!

“Big... brother?”

A gentle, youthful voice interrupted Yu Qing's thoughts.

The instant he heard the other's soft voice, Yu Qing's wary expression turned blank.

He casually tossed aside the file and asked patiently, “What's wrong? Are you hungry, or are you feeling unwell?”

An Wu suppressed his restless tentacles. With his lips pursed in a smile, he looked innocent and harmless. Without a sound, he kicked away the file Yu Qing had set down, wrapped his arms around the other's neck, and said very obediently, “Nothing... I just missed you, Big Brother.”

Yu Qing had taken such good care of him that the maturity phase he'd been overdue for finally arrived.

An Wu lowered his eyes and thought:

If only Yu Qing would never wake up.

I want Big Brother.

I want to mate with Big Brother.

"The first day Yu Qing took An Wu out of the laboratory"

Yu Qing: (calling a subordinate) Yes, there's a special-grade monster here. Get in touch with someone and prepare to have it destroyed...

An Wu: (teary-eyed after tasting a proper meal for the first time)

Yu Qing: ...

An Wu: QuQ?

Yu Qing: ...Get a wheelchair to push him around, and bring him another bowl of rice.

Subordinate: ...?

#Don't worry about it. He's so pitiful, the threat level must be wrong#

[Just for Fun, Scene 2]

At first, Yu Qing thought of himself as An Wu's caretaker, feeding the little monster three big bowls of rice every day.

Later, Yu Qing thought of himself as An Wu's teacher, teaching him pinyin starting with a, b, c, and d.

Later still, Yu Qing thought of himself as An Wu's big brother...

“In summary,” Yu Qing said calmly, looking at the tentacle reaching around his waist, “it would be immoral for us to have a sexual relationship.”

“Why?” An Wu blinked his beautiful eyes, looking as though he was about to cry. “Big Brother, why can't you be my caretaker, teacher, big brother, the mother of our children, and my lover all at once?”

Yu Qing: ...

[An Wu x Yu Qing]

A gentle, naturally scheming nonhuman top with a very girlish heart

x

A bottom who initially thinks he's been bewitched, but later realizes he really does go soft whenever he sees An Wu, damn it, and becomes a doting mom

The top will gradually recover and grow taller, eventually becoming a beautiful young man as tall as the bottom.

A top-tier calamity who is very good at acting weak (but only in front of the bottom), and a bottom who knows full well that the other is a top-tier calamity putting on an act, but still spoils him rotten. These are the author's favorite tropes, so readers can decide for themselves whether they're a dealbreaker or a delight. No pairing reversals or self-insert shipping comments; they'll be deleted if seen.
