the way felines dont even knot lmaoooo its only canid mammals

shut up nerd

i'm just joking btw

I wonder if it's the ABO factor that's allowing him to knot? Since he went into rut and Hyunsoo went into heat?

Here comes the Harvard graduate /jk

i dont think its ABO since theyre half animals so they experience ruts and heats and all that just like real life animals (also ABO is based off wolves and stuff im pretty sure)

HAHAHAHAHA

ABO is indeed based on (an archaic idea of) wolves, but sometimes these tropes are used in combination.

Since all feline females will go into heats, but males won't experience ANY type of breeding season (incl. Ruts), it wouldn't make sense for one of them to experience heat and the other experience rut *unless* there's an ABO component to it.

Ruts are not seen in candids either, which should be made clear; only horned and tusked animals (e.g. deer and elephants) + some other animals, such as skunks, experience RUTS, specifically. However, ABO will, per-trope, feature both ruts (alphas) and heats (omega) – I've seen it be combined with the hybrid trope tonnes of times.
