absolutely wonderful, we need more of this. more recently i've been having mnlx alpha/alpha thoughts, but i think i would enjoy writing them as a very specific flavour of o/o as well.

i think it could be really fun if this was an au where felix is a soloist and minho is his manager. they're something of an infamous duo in the industry: the pretty, perfect omega that rose to stardom within a blink of an eye, seemingly made for shining on stage and captivating hearts just with a single, heart-shaking smile. the nation's sweetheart. omegas want to look like him. mothers want their kids married to him.

and then there's felix's manager. lee minho.

lee minho, who absolutely fucking refuses to entertain any notions of traditional omegahood. who swears on camera (to their company's displeasure), who vocally hates all aspects of his job that do not encompass tending to every single one of felix's needs and wants, who spots the paparazzi following them and something in his usually blasé face just turns a little violent.

he's a walking-talking pr nightmare. felix loves him. actually looks at him with stars in his eyes. there are pictures. he is superglued to his side.

the media do not take kindly to an omega like minho, even though he technically isn't a celebrity. they especially do not take kindly to the industry's darling being willing to work with - and god forbid if the rumours are true - romancing someone as rough around the edges as lee minho. the headlines are brutal, truly.

at the same time, there is something really intriguing to the public about the contrast between these two and the affection they have for each other. there are videos of minho holding the umbrella for felix, carrying his bags, helping him put on his jacket. hundreds of comments under them of omegas bemoaning their own alpha partners who are nowhere near as thoughtful as minho is. felix gleefully filming vlogs about baking for his beloved hyung and going out to get him gifts. articles obsessing over the softness and wistfulness that appears on minho's face whenever he tends to felix, returning to his usual cool expression soon after the fact.

(a now-deleted blurry clip of freshly debuted felix having his tears kissed away gently in the background of some other idol's interview.)

people can speculate all they want but both felix and minho remain tight-lipped about the exact nature of their relationship. felix's fans are surprisingly supportive of the possibility of the two omegas being together and felix's fandom experiences a rather huge of influx of new omega fans around the same time when the rumours start. probably just a coincidence.

years later, when felix is already well-established in the industry, he does share that he and minho have been together for years now. no one is really surprised, especially since they have been very openly living together in a one-bedroom penthouse, as exhibited in felix's frequent livestreams. minho still shows the paps his middle finger when they're spotted, but now he does it while holding felix's hand 💝
