Would you believe it'll be my first time participating in slickfest too? I should note I am not an expert by any means. Just a little goofball with a hyperfixation that happens to be omegaverse. I guess the first thing that's the most important about all omegaverse AUs is that there's no like ... right or wrong way to depict it. The beauty and often the appeal of omegaverse to a lot of people is just how much you can do with it. You want your betas to have both parts? You can GIVE them both parts. You want omegas to be rarer and thus highly sought after? You can do that too. Feisty omegas, docile alphas, growling, purring, possessiveness that goes both ways. There's really nothing you CAN'T do. It has so much potential for creative expression and you can come up with new things too.

(Shout out to Nopebunny for glitter slick or Ays for giving more depth/lore to omega's with venom in their bites.)

Omegaverse is less about "facts" and more about widely accepted things within the AU space. Silently agreed upon ideas until someone comes up with something new that catches everyone's attention.

I got a little off track here, my bad.

Also I don't think there's really a specific time frame for pack dynamics or mating runs? Sure I've seen a bunch done in more nondescript eras but I feel like you can have them be whenever? Modern day mating run with drones keeping track of the contestants and so on. (although this gives me hunger games vibes lol). I'm also a little ashamed to admit, I haven't kept up with moon goddess lore much so I can't really comment on it.

I don't really know if this was helpful or just me babbling but if you have more questions. Please don't hesitate to ask, I can try to explain more. ♥
