Any novels with dead links or that are not finished were mtl .

[Keywords: Healing, Relaxing.] WHERE THE MENG/fluff IS THE FOCUS, not mere mentions! I created this list bcos I had enough being sad when the author conveniently forgets the baby (despite how it's advertised ;_; ). (PS: Check tags for BL, Het or Gen/non-romance stories)... more>>

mpreg=/=babies. NOT ALL MPREG HAVE HUGE FEATURE OF KIDS. Plus there are also people who avoid mpreg like a plague so I've put a tag. 

Meng is served in different kinds and I sorted them as: 

1.) Actual babies. Usually together with the tag #childcare. ✨️️️(human)bun ✴️child MC ⛳mpreg baby ⚙️️ virtual cub

2.) Transformed MC/ML. Usually the romantic partner has a cute form. ❣️️️️cub become lover(not real cub) , pet become lover ⚙️️ virtual lover

3.) Real, actual pet/animal raised by MC or ML ⛵beast companion(pokemon sorta) ♈real pet

Takame Bun dictionary:  

◼️ 'Meng' - cute ◼️ 'Meng-seller' - showing off cuteness ◼️  'Rua' - petting/cuddling  ◼️ 'Yaoijing' - animal spirit cultivator that gained human form ◼️ 'sh*t shovel officer / poop-scooper / cat-s*ave' - same meaning being too obsessed with pet you're willing to be a hooman laborer for free.  ◼️ BEAST CUBS: kids of beastmen that were born in baby animal form.  <<less

Lighthearted, no angst, cute, romantic, warm and sweet. I re-read those often. Only completed novels listed. Some do have a little angst, but it is never between the couple, mostly drama from their past or outsiders who bring them trouble.... more>>

Those novels are well-written, with coherent story, coherent protagonists, coherent fantasy/modern world-building. Coherence and consistency in both plot and character behaviour are really important for me. I am not looking for realism. I am looking for cohesion and escapism. I don't mind characters who are OP, filthy rich, tsunderes, yanderes, geniuses, black-belly, child-like adults, evil demons, amoral characters, shota, obssessive, possessive etc.. i don't mind excessive characters because that's exactly what i like. I like that in Asian lit, those marginal characters are heroes and not defined by standardised morality. In Western lit, i don't meet many characters like that, and i have 45yrs of reading western literature. The only character set i avoid are indecisive protags who have no self-knowledge and keep self-analysing which i find quite boring. IRL, i also avoid such people lol... <<less

mermaid / nightinggales / guide / AO and the like; usually fixing mental riots, pheromone disorder and other mental and/or power problems. Not literal physical illness but may be connected. Mostly exclusive between the couples/partners but some can do it for  other people. there's no specific novel tag for this so I just created a list to collate titles the time I got addicted with these kinds. I've read a lot over the years but forgotten some LOL. ... more>>

It may sound weird but before reading 'Advance Bravely' novel I almost came to believe that in all the Chinese BL novels, One partner is always reluctant or passive; well it maybe noted that I haven't had read that many BL novels before it; this novel enlightened me.

This is just some random list of BL novels that I'm specially waiting for their stories to be completed or translated once again since some... more>> has been on hiatus for a long time. I'm basing it on the summary and how it hooked my interest so please don't expect, the list is heavily subjective. I know some of the novels has low ratings yet I'm still taking my chances especially since I enjoy fluff, slice of life, [very] light drama, action, and adventure genres. No heavy drama here in this list. Although I might some, I doubt I'll read it immediately. Anyways, once again, this is a very subjective list so don't expect much.  <<less
