#;ON MY WATCH INAZUMA WILL ALWAYS BE DEFENDED AND THE WILL OF THE SHOGUN WILL ALWAYS BE DONE. (character study - sara)

[ninas-gf]

Genshin ask meme: 5 and 15?

What are your favourite headcanons you've come up with?

sometimes i rotate my favorite characters around my mind so much that i confuse canon with headcanon, but a few that i really like are eula being a major cat person (projection, tbh) and bennett and itto being friends

What's your favourite voice line from the game?

here are just a few (i have many and could never list them all):

"What Mein Fräulein means to say is that you are all rather stupid."

"Boats are made for transferring commodities back and forth, and those that come across Liyue tend to stay a while, so it is where many things come to settle."

"The unstoppable power of an immovable glacier dwells within me now and no grand master, acting or otherwise, can stand in my way!"

"I am Kujou Sara. You may forget my name, but this you must know: On my watch, Inazuma will always be defended, and the will of the Shogun will always be done. Deity or demon, if you make an enemy of me you will be struck down! Oh, ahem… Don't be so nervous."

"Clear skies can do nothing to hide the brilliance of lightning. Divine bolts can strike even in the absence of rain. Do you see that tree? Wait…you understand? So… demonstration is not required? Good."

"Consuming this would be physically detrimental. Remove it from my presence."

also: literally ANY of itto's voicelines

nobody asked but i think kujou sara has a very well hidden fear of heights or acrophobia that stems from when she got badly injured as a kid and couldn’t unfurl her wings as she was falling... which is how she got her vision. she can still fly today with ease and as long as she’s focused she can push past the fear pretty easily but it’s the idea of falling and not being able to catch herself that terrifies her. so usually before she goes into battle or plans on flying that she needs to moment to mentally prepare.

[strmcall]

i’m gonna combine two hcs i had here to clean up my likes a bit but sara has a lichtenberg figure spreading across her back in their shape of her wings. it doesn’t hurt to touch but it is very tingly like getting a little zap. speaking of her wings, for the untrained eye they’re pretty much perfect - not a stray feather out of place but if you were to look closer, there’s these little bends and blemishes from the times her wings broke or were injured in battle, including the time she nearly fell to her death before getting her vision.

Blissful Relief

Modern Day life is stressful (no one can tell me otherwise), and as someone who will practically deflate upon suddenly having nothing to do and nothing important going on in the future (because being isekai'd means all regular world plans for life are cancelled), I will not hesitate to sleep like the dead because I'm not on a tight schedule now.

(Two posts in a Day?? What have I become?!)

A.K.A, I make an excuse to write a Lazy Nocturnal God!Darling who will abuse the cult pampering system... because that is what I would do without hesitation when I’m free from Modern Day duties that eat away at my health and sanity bit by bit with every hour I spend working like a mindless zombie from dawn to dusk, juggling home life that is filled with bothersome troubles that never change.

I’m also a night owl, caused by both insomnia and because it is the quietest hour that I cannot help but want to relish in since my life is filled with so much loud noise it gives me daily migraines... but of course, habits are formed from repetition and I will always wake up at 4-6am like a dumbass thus suffer the consequences the next morning.

Uhh... and I guess there might be OOC stuff?? Characterization who? Also Self-Indulgent again?? Super Self-Indulgent??? Letmeenjoysleepingandbeinganocturnalcreatureplease--

Morning tends to consist of Zhongli coming into your room, leaving the tray of breakfast he prepared on the coffee table near the sofa in your room before he walks over to kneel beside the bed where you're happily dozing off on, a hand moving to gently rest on the small of your back to rub small circles with his thumb. He’s softly smiling the whole time, looking at you with such adoration and fondness with how relaxed you were. As much as he wants to let you sleep in, he knows what would happen if a mortal body doesn’t move that much on a daily basis.

He'll try get you to wake up without being too loud, and if you ask for affection (kisses in particular, because I’m an affection and touch starved bastard), he will give it to you without hesitation and pepper your face in adoring kisses before carrying you off to the sofa so you could eat. He will feed you himself if you’re still too sluggish.

Will also put you in his lap if you’re nodding off, mostly to prevent you from hurting yourself (and because he enjoys the close proximity, if you allow it).

On rare occasions, Childe will be the one to wake you up in the morning instead whenever Zhongli is busy, letting you snuggle in bed a while longer if you want a few extra minutes before smothering you in his affections as he whisks you off from bed to get ready for the day and drop you off in the kitchen where breakfast is waiting on the table.

He will feed you himself if you're still drowsy, looking at you while cooing as though you are the most precious little thing this world has ever given life to (and to be fair, you are the most precious person to him with his family).

Will give you more cheek kisses if you’re still half-asleep, or in-between spoonfuls as a way to let you know you’re doing great... and because why not. It’s a rare moment to have, since Zhongli does hog a lot of your time.

Noon/Afternoon usually has Venti to keep watch over you if you ever choose to nap somewhere random around the teapot outdoors, or somewhere out in the wilds of Teyvat where the weather is just right and the surroundings are generally quiet. If you were outside of the teapot, you’d also have either Kaeya, Xiao or Kazuha to accompany the two of you depending on where you are for extra protection (per Zhongli’s safety precaution).

Venti will hum a song, and maybe strum a calming tune while you nap, happily basking in the gentle breeze and warm sunlight as the day goes by in a very peaceful and quiet manner. If lunch time comes around, he’ll try to wake you up as gently as possible, but finds it difficult to disturb you when you look so comfortable and peaceful right now. (And usually, this has you missing out on lunch if Zhongli is too busy to check up on you. Don't worry though, he'll make sure the packed lunch is empty before the old man drops by and that you did eat something.)

Kaeya will take the chance to cuddle with you, usually keeping you between his legs while you're using his chest as a pillow as your head is tucked in the crook of his neck. He's going to keep a loose hold on you, arms wrapped around your waist while occasionally shifting in case you're uncomfortable. He's smiling the whole time because you're so cute when you sleep like this. (Will occasionally give you kisses on the crown of your head if you don't mind it. Man wants to spoil you with so much love if you allow him to.)

Xiao is 100% attentive to all things in the surrounding, wanting to keep you safe from all potential dangers and will not relax while you're in such a vulnerable state. He will, however, melt when you sleepily call for his name while lazily reaching for him in such a lazy, but cute manner. Just like that, he's right by your side, asking for whatever you need. He's still on guard, but whatever you need, he will be there to provide... kisses and snuggles included, even if he’s struggling to be open about it. 

Kazuha would be smiling serenely, occasionally brushing the hair off your face if it gets in the way of giving you proper sleep. He would take care of problems that may arise before it reaches you, and if you ever have trouble trying to be comfortable, he’ll let you lay your head on his lap while he gently pets your head in such a soothing manner that the nap turns into full on sleep... his legs might go numb, but he just couldn’t wake you up when you looked so peaceful sleeping right there.

Sayu will always accompany you when you’re in Inazuma, mostly because she could find an excuse to sleep with you around when you are getting ready to nap. She’ll be quick to defend you though, because if you get hurt, she’ll lose that excuse and she’ll struggle to find peace to sleep for a while without having people tailing after her.

Dusk/Evening you’re decently awake (or rather, barely awake), Zhongli’s not letting you sleep anymore until later into the night. Ei would keep you company, the time when it’s not so busy for her as things settle down and allow her to spend time with you. She’s honestly just internally squealing when you end up holding onto her hand or sleeve if you’re too groggy to walk by yourself and properly guide your own feet.

Sometimes the Kamisato Clan would be the ones to accompany you, per Ei/Raiden Shogun’s orders. Ayaka used to be on-guard (because how did someone who was barely standing on their own two feet turn the Raiden Shogun into some excitable puppy??) when she first met you, but she got over it after realizing you’re not a bad person after spending enough time with you to see it.

Thoma sometimes coddles you, knowing well enough that you were just tired from the stress of the daily life you used to have when you told him once during a day when he was left to take care of you... He does his best to make sure you were enjoying yourself in the city, keeping a watchful eye in case you’d trip on your own feet.

On rare occasions when even the Kamisato Clan is busy, Kujou Sara would be the one to care for you... as foreign as it was in the beginning, because you’re so idle and pretty sluggish most of the time, but she grew to find these times relaxing. Of course, she is ever watchful for all problems, and when you were awake enough, would be helpful with your foreknowledge if you do remember everything well enough.

When Night falls upon Teyvat, you are fully awake, if only for a while until you grow exhausted again. In these moments, they would all try to spend time with you and gain more of your attention... but aside from that, you would often take strolls on Watatsumi Island, if only because you do sincerely enjoy the scenery the island had during the night... but other times, you would either take a stroll at Starsnatch Cliff or Qingce Village.

Kokomi would be with you, walking alongside you while she admires the sight of your relaxed, fully awake expressions that mostly appears at night. She would keep each of these moments to her heart, knowing that if her God loved Watatsumi as it is, then all her efforts into protecting it was worth it... plus, there was something nice just knowing a God like you enjoying the natural sight of her home while taking a nightly stroll.

Gorou trails behind you like a puppy, basking in the attention you give him and will always be ready to defend you. When you talk, he is absolutely silent, wanting to hear your voice in its more clearer form. He will not be happy if someone interrupts you, definitely will snarl at them if you don’t keep him in check... but aside from that, he will stick close to your side while you’re at Watatsumi Island as your guard with Kokomi.

Diluc will be by your side during the night when you’re in Mondstadt, always looking away when your gaze is directed towards him but otherwise would observe you closely... since he often sees you when you weren’t fully awake. He enjoys seeing this side of you more, and while he does find your sleepy self to be adorable, he likes knowing that you’re aware of everything... It gives him a peace of mind when you do acknowledge his efforts.

Midnight rings clear into the night, the clarity of your mind would return into its sleepy state. You would return back to the Teapot and get ready for bed, tucked in comfortably by one of your acolytes before you slumber until morning rises once more and repeat your day... Sometimes, if you’ve relaxed enough, you might be fully awake for the whole day.

Of course, that is a rare moment that might not always happen, but if you were truly awake for a whole day, none of your acolytes are going to miss this chance and might fight to have your full attention if you don’t give them the satisfactory amount, unless you put your foot down and make sure they behave. 

Aside from that, your cult will always be there for you, ready to take care of you and give you all the affection you want.

Deity or demon, if you make an enemy of me you will be struck down! Oh, ahem... Don't be so nervous. I have agreed to fight by your side, and I will honor that commitment. I may be uncompromising on matters of great importance, but on most other things, you will find me quite easygoing.

more kitsune ik headcanons?

(from the ik is yae's sister ask)

i'd be lying if i hadn't had more thoughts about it, so sure thing!!

according to the wikipedia page, the number of tails a kitsune has depends on their age and wisdom - so ik, being pretty young (by yokai standards) only has three

she probably has an electro vision too, and she has a similar pink aesthetic to her big sister because i'm just a sucker for pastel pink palettes

(though it'd also be funny if she ended up with like, a geo vision, but kept the pink aesthetic anyway)

like miko, she has a fox form and it's TINY, she could fit into a single palm of your hand

she was born either during or just before the cataclysm, so she was super young during it - and miko was extremely insistent on keeping her away from the battles at all times, so ik doesn't actually know much about everything that happened

she did meet makoto once, but spent most of her time with miko and ei

though there was one time that ik accidentally got caught up in the filth that the cataclysm was contaminating inazuma with

one of her ears is all still tattered because of it

she was born with miko's purple eyes and pink hair, but now her hair is more black-into-pink, and the eye on the same side of her tattered ear is now brown (also as a result of the filth thing)

(this is basically my in-universe reasoning to be able to keep kitsune ik resembling original ik)

her fox form has the tattered ear too, and where her fur used to fade into white, it fades into black instead

ik doesn't mind it, she thinks her colours look cool as hell in fox form

she also loves snuggling with anyone she's familiar with and getting scritches behind the ears in fox form

(you've got to be careful you don't squish her though)

she's a lot more friendly than miko, and since she doesn't share the same liking of 'watching people squirm', she's seen as the safer sister to be around

she's generally well-respected, but oftentimes people (mostly older men) don't take her seriously because she's 'just a little girl' - even though she's almost certainly older than them

i imagine she'd be best friends with ayaka - she'd be seen as someone with status befitting a friend of the shirasagi himigemi, so it wouldn't look too weird to the public, and also her personality means that she can help ayaka have fun in private!

miko doesn't mind this, but she's not too happy about the fact that ik has also befriended ayato through his sister

ik's 'thing' would be that she's super quick and agile - like, as a playable, her kit would contain stuff that boosts movement/atk speed, and she'd probably have an alternate sprint

maybe for her burst she'd go tiny fox form and like, run electro loops around the enemy, which immobilises and debuffs them for a period

she's always climbing trees and stuff, and she knows all the best hiding places around inazuma city (which she tells sayu about so that she can find somewhere to sleep in peace)

she has a lot of friends who all think she's pretty swell across all the islands

she's often on the move between them to oversee the various shrines, and (in seirai and tsurumi's cases) to observe the storms/mists and make sure things are relatively under control

because she's so well-acquainted and generally liked, she actually serves a pretty important role in the peace talks following the abolishment of the vision hunt decree

it would've be around then that she befriended gorou

gorou thinks of himself as the older brother figure since ik looks younger and he's more sensible, but ik, who often defends him form miko, thinks he's her little brother, actually

after the peace talks, ik starts visiting watatsumi, usually to visit gorou - the islanders are cautious, since they all worship orobashi and she's a well-known follower of the raiden shogun

but ik's very polite and listens enthusiastically when gorou and some other watatsumi shrine maidens explain their worship rituals to her

after she participates in some shrine-cleaning and ceremonies with commendable accuracy and respect, everyone decides she's alright

while ei was in the plane of euthymia, ik would pray to her every night before she went to bed

it always followed a pattern: recounting her day, telling her what the effects of the vision hunt and sakoku decrees are, telling her what she'd left at her shrines that day, and asking her to come visit miko soon because 'please miss ei she misses you lots'

ei never replied, but she did hear some of the prayers, and it was actually kind of comforting

miko loves her baby sister to pieces so she spoils ik a lot

she can tolerate being insulted herself, because she can very easily turn the tables and embarrass the insulter - but sometimes the insulter decides to go for her perceived weak spot and insult her little sister instead

if they wanted a reaction, they got it. they also just got fried by a giant lightning bolt but to be honest, if they were dumb enough to insult ik in front of miko, they kind of had it coming

ik's also fully capable of frying you herself because she's very well-trained in combat, both by her sister and by the allies back during the battles of the cataclysm

anyway, in summary: kitsune ik is Baby

but then again, all iks are

i just think. in my portrayal. over the couse of the story, kujou sara began to have and continued to have some p serious panic attacks more and more and part of it has to do with everything going on around her, everything she has to deal with after everything happened, her own personal feelings of guilt, depression and insecurities and everything she failed to do thankssss
