You Know How Cats Slow Blink To Say "I Love You"?

Omegaverse Basics:

 Overview: Omegaverse is an alternate universe where there are three genders in addition to male and female: alpha, beta, and omega. These three genders determine the person’s instinctual desires and special abilities unique to that gender, usually in relation to romance or bearing children.

The genders are based on wolf society (wolves have now been proven not to have these rankings, fun fact) so there’s a lot of talk of packs, mates and pups. Common slang for Omegaverse. The main story plot for Omegaverse universes (apart from romance) is usually some form of societal oppression towards omegas.

Omegaverse universes vary from person to person so if you see contradictions, that’s all a part of the fun. Mi mundo es tú mundo.

Something important for my Omegaverse!: In my Omegaverse I make it a point that these people are a different species. Everyone has both reproductive organs regardless of secondary or primary gender. The only difference in primary gender is whether or not the person is capable of producing breast milk.

Glossary:

Heat and Rut: The mating cycle of omegas and alphas respectively

Mate: Romantic life partner

Mating Bite/Mating Mark: A bite on the neck that marks someone as mated

Nest: A collection of blankets, pillows, soft things, put together in a nice comfort pile

Pack: A group of people who have bonded together

Presenting: The process of coming into your secondary gender, which is mostly dormant throughout childhood

Pup: A baby or someone who hasn’t presented yet

Scent: An identifying smell

Scenting: To add your smell to another temporarily

Secondary gender: Alpha beta or omega

Slick: (NSFW!) A white substance that leaks from the vagina during heat

Instincts: Each secondary gender has a set of instinctual needs or desires.

Scenting: A lot of Omegaverse involves using scent to identify yourself and others and who you hang out with most. It’s also used to identify which secondary gender people are but that doesn’t really work, even if people think it should.

Pups: Babies are their own gender, and that’s baby. This affects their scent as well.

Presenting: The great right of passage into adulthood.

Heats and Ruts: The mating cycle for omegas and alphas respectively (betas don’t really have a mating cycle). I don’t have rut headcanons in my world but I do have three posts helping describe heats: 1 2 3

Mates and Mating: This is is nsfw. It’s akin to consummating a marriage. The process of becoming mates.

Packs: Packs are groups of people who stick together. A family. People are born into one and then they sometimes find another one when they’re older. Packs are the Omegaverse’s found family.

Nesting: Nests are like the beds of Omegaverse. They’re ground blanket forts.

Bonus: Purring 1 2 3

Footnote: There’s plenty more. These are the basics found in almost all Omegaverses. Please note that these are from my Omegaverse, and you may encounter something different in another version. Welcome to A/B/O, Omegaverse!

Differences between a Nest and a Den

Feel free to dissagree/have your own versions of everything but my general ideas for my interpretations on the differences between an omega nest and an alpha den is essentially this;

Nest

Almost all soft materials

Small enclosed spaces

Not much clutter/generally tidy

Brighter colours pups like

Tends to look like the typical kid's pillow fort with being small enclosed area usually filled with pillows. Simple & bright colours and soft & fluffy textures are the way to go when designing one as of course these nests often have to be pup-safe. The space is usually very tidy, well as tidy as you can get when there's pups around, but still gets regularly cleaned.

Den

Not as enclosed & more open ended

Cluttered / hoarding is common

Lots of different textures & patterns

Darker colours

Could literally just be the person's entire room since there aren't as often clear boundaries between what is the den and what isn't. Dens are often kept dark since many alphas are somewhat nocturnal. There's also usually a variety of textures, so along with alphas' tendencies to fill up their space with a lot of stuff dens are oft cluttered. Due to denning behaviors, alphas are sometimes seen as "hoarders".

Though technically most alphas den and omegas nest, there are cases where an omega may den and an alpha may nest. Betas often will either have something more in the middle/sharing traits with both or will not participate in nesting at all. There are also non-nesting omegas & non-denning alphas. Of course, every individual is different, and there's always exceptions.

omega pro tip:

when buying plushies for your nests, keep in mind build a bear has scents that can be put inside your stuffed animal!! some of them are stronger and some are mild but they’re amazing. they have lots of different types and they’re super comforting!! they’re also replaceable if they stop smelling as strongly! ♡
