#BUT KAVEH JUMPSCARED ME

[thebitchbehindtheslaughter]

EVERYONE SHHH SHUSH SHSHHHHHHH BAIZHU AND KAVEH ARE *HOME*

[iridescentmirrorsgenshin]

Hello again! I was the anon that asked what interactions you would like to see with Alhaitham and Kaveh (and I am the reader that made the two listed comments). Thank you for the thoughtful response. It's so interesting to hear your perspective of these two. I hope you had a nice vacation. My one takeaway from Cyno story quest act II is that Cyrus was acquainted with the Sumeru crew's parents. He was shown in the photo from Kaveh's handout standing behind Alhaitham's father. I don't imagine they were close or anything, but it does make me intrigued. I wonder if they would explore more of that group in the future, given how they relate (literally and in parallels) with the Sumeru crew.

Hiya! I’ve finally managed to find time to dedicate to this ask, it’s scratched the itch in my brain! I, apparently, have quite a few thoughts about this topic so thank you for asking! Also !!! Thank you for previous asks AND the listed comments on my fic??? I truly appreciate the time you must have spent :,D <3333

This!! The specific detail of Cyrus canonically being mentioned to personally have met, not only Kaveh’s father and mother and tighnari’s parents, but ALSO alhaitham’s parents drives me insane because of how it is directly unmentioned.

It’s uncertain as to the extent of Cyno’s actual relationship with kaveh’s or alhaitham’s parents, but based on what Kaveh’s mother wrote, she, personally, didn’t seem to be close with cyrus, as she records their meeting to be the first instance in which she has met all the attendees. She records that her and her husband were invited to a gathering, but she knew none of those in attendance, only that her husband seemed to be friends with “the man with long ears” - being tighnari’s father. nothing is said about kaveh’s father knowing the other people in attendance, but as it isn’t specified, it also isn’t impossible? faranak does write that it’s unlikely they’ll see any of the people in attendance again after the gathering - but i imagine that tighnari’s father here is an exception, given that he and kaveh’s father are recorded to be friends (also, the only inkling i have for the 'talkative woman' is potentially madam faruzan? but as this is so vague i'm not too sure about speculating)

kaveh’s mother having canonically met alhaitham’s parents drives me a little bit !??!!?? because kaveh notes that the figures in the drawing seem familiar, which, of course, doesn’t mean he has identified alhaitham’s parents, especially after he disregards any potential connection with “maybe we were thinking too much.” but given tighnari’s father being a fennec it is rather odd(?) that he doesn’t make a more personal connection, at least to tighnari's father being the "friend" to his father that his mother writes about

however, in terms of what the narrative is trying to achieve in kaveh's hangout, it does make sense that these dots aren’t connected. the point here isn’t that kaveh recognises these figures, but rather that he relates the companionship in the drawing to those around him. kaveh’s hangout is very much symbolic, being that each figure in faranak’s drawing is meant to represent kaveh’s friendship group, meaning he should rely on his friends, tighnari, cyno, and alhaitham - as the quest is entitled “companionship, the sole antidote”

the fact kaveh DOESN’T identify cyrus in the picture leaves room for development, or future mention of this. Cyrus canonically talks to zaha hadi, kaveh’s mother’s lecturer, about kaveh, and zaha hadi is the person whom kaveh turns to in order to learn about his mother when she was younger.

There’s definitely potential to draw upon here - if cyrus knows he has met kaveh’s parents in the past, and he and kaveh have a personal rapport due to kaveh’s friendships with cyno and tighnari, it seems strange that he omits this detail? Especially, if it’s considered canon that kaveh’s hangout has taken place in-game, then cyrus, given that zaha hadi mentions kaveh to him, might be aware that kaveh has been asking about his mother?

(A counter to this would be that due to cyrus’s potential limited encounter with both kaveh’s father and mother, and that it took place over thirty years ago, he has no basis to open this dialogue with kaveh, as it may be a sore spot (This could also apply with cyrus having met alhaitham’s parents - perhaps he simply only met them once, but still, i crave alhaitham parent crumbs) - however, in an ideal world, this could be some sort of catalyst or feed into the idea of kaveh potentially reaching out to his mother in future events, perhaps with cyrus referencing this past gathering(?)

Now, moving onto tighnari’s parents, who are very much alive and well, and also have canonically met kaveh’s parents - with tighnari’s father being directly stated to be close with kaveh’s father, in terms of the gathering at least. with tighnari and kaveh being friends due to exchanging letters during the construction of the palace of alcazarzaray, rather than tighnari’s parents’ influence, could indicate that kaveh’s mother dropped all contact with any friends or acquaintances, which i think likely. however, i am !??!!?? very confused about this implication

tighnari’s parents would, of course, know that kaveh is tighnari’s close friend, and i presume that kaveh has met tighnari’s parents at some point, so from this, i would imagine that tighnari’s parents having known/met kaveh’s parents may have come up at some point? Especially with tighnari’s father being recorded as being friends with kaveh’s father, at least from faranak’s perspective?

in terms of the canon, however, this appears to not be the case, so i would LOVE for this to be mentioned at some point!! Especially as sumeru cast heavily revolves around family, found and biological (i’m looking at you cyno’s second story quest)

In terms of alhaitham’s parents, the only mentions of them are in alhaitham’s character stories and here in kaveh’s hangout. there’s no indicator as to whether alhaitham’s parents were close or just acquaintances with cyrus, kaveh’s father, or tighnari’s parents, but in my mind i think it’s interesting that his character stories record his grandmother teaching him of his parents, and his retaining part of his parents’ book collection when his grandmother passes. basically i think alhaitham treasures what he does know of his parents, and i think a lil mention of them by people we KNOW met them, if only for one gathering, would be appreciated

So this links directly to kaveh’s mother - if she is ever mentioned in the future, it would be INSANE wish fulfilment if her drawing was returned to, and the figures were identified, and memories from those present and alive could be shared

(I also think it’s so funny that her son is roommates/innately bound by mirror symbolism/married to the son of the people she thought were uncomfortable and awkward. basically i am in DIRE need of a kaveh and faranak reunion and for them to sort their issues, obviously for kaveh’s development and reconciliation within himself, but also for a faranak-alhaitham interaction…. Can you imagine. Now i have thoughts about that, but this has gotten off topic!!!)

Of course, i’m aware that i’m overthinking a lot of this, and this could be one of the many plot discrepancies within genshin, and that as a result of creating symbolism, in-game implications were created that weren’t supposed to be touched upon, but i think a lot of fun comes with discussing and hypothesising (manifesting) these things!!

Thank you so much for your ask!! Delving back into this part of kaveh’s hangout is always a treat, so i hope you enjoy reading my brainrot :,)

Character Demo - "Kaveh: Edifice of Sincerity" | Genshin Impact

Drafting blueprints, designing models, and refining proposals... These matters demand the greatest expenditures of effort and thought from an architect.

But to Kaveh, they are also things that can calm his heart and distract him from his frustrations.

[semi-completely-original]

i usually don't post art here, but i'm unfortunately shadow banned on my normal apps since i reposted too many palestine updates. oops! i'll try my luck here instead

there's a fem!haikaveh takeover lead on twitter rn and one of the loudest champions of this is my lovely mutual who inspired this outfit by giving me femveh brainworms :3 she is a WOMAN IN STEM!!!!!

[sneakywingeddude]

I couldn’t decide what color the bg should be.

[kavehater]

XILONEN OMGGG YAY !!!

[cerealmonster15]

i finally made a folder of my google docs re: twst fics/plannings and looking at the names are so fun bc a lot of them i didnt use the final fic name [if it got published] so sometimes it's just a placeholder [especially if it's just notes/ideas and not a fic] and some dont have a title at all and just auto used the first few words of the doc so i have like

i think only like 5ish of these have their ao3 titles on them / on two separate occasions i named an apple juice fic prompt doc the same thing except for literally just one has an extra ! and they were like 2 months apart......... i even checked bc i thought for some reason the doc duplicated themselves but no, those are just two completely different fics, they just both happened to be Apple Juice Kiss Prompts jvdjfdsljg i didnt do that w/any of the other kiss prompt docs but. whatever i guess!!

it's a fun guessing game on looking at the titles and trying to remember which ones they are. they date back to like 2021 when i moved from word docs to google so i could more easily share them with my friend since i wasnt really publishing anything at first lol.

GENSHIN MEN & DOING CUTE AUTUMN THINGS .

characters. zhongli diluc kaeya childe neuvillette alhaitham kaveh x gn!reader genre. romantic fluff. an. happy almost october. which means happy almost christmas | please reblog!! im getting back into writing and reblogs with tags and comments will make me want to write more :D

zhongli

autumn, with zhongli, is sitting around a bonfire together. his hands are tightly wrapped around you, with you leaning against his shoulder – liyue never had seasons like these, so experiences like these came far and few. it was lovely all the same, sitting nestled in the leaves with you.

diluc

autumn, with diluc, is helping him with the autumn harvest. carts of grapes, pumpkins, cantaloupes, tomatoes, and more were filled to the brim, with two satisfied smiles on your faces after as he pushed the cart back to the manor. a sweet tradition, always ending with a glass of the harvest's finest wine at the end of the day.

kaeya

autumn, with kaeya, is always filled with baking and your household smelling like the grand mixture of cinnamon, butter and nutmeg. pumpkin pie, apple pie, cinnamon rolls, pecan bars, apple crisps and so many more left no more room for actual eating at the kitchen counters – time to host another soirée!

childe

autumn, with childe, is always competing to gather the biggest pile of leaves outside to jump into, within the coziness of your backyard. some years, the children eagerly watched the you go against each other, only for childe to tackle you into your pile of leaves. you always forgive him, though – you can't stay mad at your favourite ginger.

neuvillette

autumn, with neuvillette, is taking a stroll through the cold gardens of fontaine. the air seems to whisper and flitter about, and the melusines skip around as happily as ever. neuvillette forgets about all his worries the moment his hand slips in yours so perfectly – it seems as if your hand was made exactly for his.

alhaitham

autumn, with alhaitham, is booking an isolated cabin in the woods – and spending your most favourite two weeks of the year there. the air is sweetened with the scent of cinnamon biscuits and browned butter. you and alhaitham finally get to take a breath away from the bustle of sumeru city, and curl up within each other to read and live.

kaveh

autumn, with kaveh, is booking every single haunted house and maze you can find on the sumeru websites. you laugh as you watch your boyfriend's face turn from pleasantness to a horror-filled shock, the most high-pitched squealing and shrieking you've ever heard extract out of his body when the jumpscares start. he may have grabbed your hand too tightly, and now there's a red mark.

taglist: @tiredsleep @loptido @raincxtter @chichikoi @ladyadii @soulsanta @sheiiths @genshinparty @eowinthetraveler @moonbyunniee @legitnoi @lemontum @manager-of-the-pudding-bank @starz222 @ilyuu @cherry-colored-petals @mondaymelon @tartaglia-apologist @soleillunne @m1shapanda @aimynx @smokipoki @adeptuscharm @diorlumx @vennnnn-diagram @ryuryuryuyurboat @yuminako (send ask to be added to taglist)

reblogs w/ tags & comments help me lots !!! if you liked this, consider dropping me a follow as well :-)

[alhaithamcore]

just saw the new insidious movie today (it was awesome btw!!) and it got me thinking about how kavetham would watch horror movies

kaveh likes scary movies from an artistic standpoint but is an absolute wimp when it comes to the scares. alhaitham, on the other hand, barely flinches, even during the jumpscares. he views the films from a logical standpoint, and as such he doesn’t get spooked by the monsters. realistically, it could never happen, so why should he be frightened?

i imagine kaveh practically clinging onto the couch in fear while haitham’s just watching the movie like 😐 LMAO

[scruus]

Human jumpscare ig

I want to rail kaveh in this 🙏🙏🙏

Why do u do this to me. You already know my everyday thoughts are filled with him and now you randomly appear with this picture and say you want to RAIL HIM in THIS DRESS??? 😧😧😧

You are the reason my mind is nonstop running for these men.

But anyways. This would be kaveh’s idea to surprise you ya know. Like it would be ur bday or some event to celebrate for and at the end of the entire day when u finally reach home tired, he undresses his suit and reveals this dress beneath.

Your exhaustion disappeared in a moment’s time and you were all over each other. Your hands sliding up and down his hips and making sure his legs hold around your waist tight as you carry him to your bed. Kissing along his neck and entangling your hands while whispering, “my sweet love, thank you so much” and all kaveh does is reply with a shy nod.

His cock peeking from under the dress was so adorable it was almost painful for you to not tease and make that dick so entirely spent in a manner that Kaveh would forever remember. And you did. It was the best thing ever.

Oh btw, the dress was also ripped and it did cost alot so kaveh scolded u in the morning💀💀💀.

like a good portion of the genshin x star rail crossover stuff ..

at least what i've seen - is a lot of the 'kaveh & alhaitham are dr ratios parents' and all the fluffy hurt/comfort fics that this entails.

also , dr ratio would def receive a geo vision , you can fight me on this. as for aventurine im torn between making him cryo, or geo as well.

but when i try to write something in this crossover myself (that isn't centered 'round sumeru) , my gremlin brain is bongoing the keyboard with heist ideas and screaming about the masked fools.

elation ! trailblazer and klee would be a very dangerous - but fun - pair if left unsupervised for more than 5 minutes .

the initial meeting between the astral express crew (-1 raccoon) and knights of favonius is cut short by the sound of explosions and raucous laughter following them .

after watching klee and what merry chaos she wreaks , stelle/ caelus decide that since there's no trashcans to pilfer , obtaining a vision of her/ his very own sounds far more fun ~

and after the 3rd attempt to juggle jumpty dumpties ends in a few jumpscared guards and klee gaining her own mask , the duo flee to the Angel's Share tavern in order to plan their next move.

in the tavern information is traded over a few pints of apple cider and a decent introduction to the genius invocation TCG .

much merriment was to be had when a misbegotten miscreant let word of "the dark knight hero" slip its way into the ears of the pair of masked fools , who both now had a lovely excuse to get up to some midnight mischief.

somewhere , the aforementioned Dark Knight hero got a sudden chill down his spine ; but he remains unaware of the duo intent on chasing him down.

and thus concludes act 1

don't worry though dear audience, this won't be the last you see of our merry pair of fools.

things are gonna get fun when this duo sets off for liyue

more lore stuff below the cut

now i don't have a good idea on what Klee's mask would look like , but with her first steps on the path of elation comes plenty of new andwild things she can have her bombs do.

as for the trailblazer ; aha's gaze gifts them with a tanuki mask and the ability to transform into other people ; the only giveaway to their trick is that their eye color doesn't change.

and when the story rolls over to the start of the heist(s) , klee's disguise for this bit of mischief would certainly be based on kaeya.

[kitty-meowskers]

top 5 general ship/character headcannons!

hihihi thought you’d never ask (lies, i was waiting the entire time)

sampo closes door and shi with his hips

alhaitham enjoys jumpscaring kaveh (idk why this just makes sense to me) he’ll just casually walk up behind him and just grab him and kaveh will shriek like a girl

blade once tried to write a (emo) poem and he ‘casually’ showed it to kafka who passed it onto silver wolf with a snicker (because it was too emo) and then they gave it back to him and burst out laughing. he then stomped away grumpily (like the emo alpha male he is)

i said this before but march doesnt care about the juice all she really cares about is munching on the ice cubes

alhaitham is autistic (this isnt even a headcannon in my head anymore honestly)

these werent really my top 5 (i dont have a top five😭) but like these just get to me (dont take the third one too seriously tho—)

[overlysour]

Hello hello it's me again, the problem

Gender : Female

Relationship status : Romantic

This is something Valentines related to lighten up my mood because i was so bitter yesterday 🙉 (i hope I'm doing this right)

Character : Kaveh (It doesn't have to be perfect btw <3)

--

I snuck up behind the Blonde man with messy hair because even god knows doesn't know how he'd mess that up/j

"BOO"

I exclaimed from behind him, Jumpscaring him

"Hehe, just like the first time we met, Dear Kaveh.. Well! Happy Valentines day, love"

I handed him a bouquet of of Peony and Tulip and figets my fingers while he was admiring it

"I figured that you might have any plans today, so i didn't bother making up a plan and leave it up to you.. i do also have a backup plan of course"

"Stargazing with picnic on somewhere slightly high"

"With no Al Haitham" i chuckled

"So.. what do you say?"

--

Forgive me as i can only write first person perspective and i hope I'm not too late, take your time :D

I’m really sorry that it’s late.. I was feeling pretty tired for a while. Never too late for Valentines requests though!! Also sorry for him not being extremely canon, as I’m not at the Sumeru quest and he’s not playable so far.

“H-hey I thought I was supposed to ask you to be my valentines! Anyway, of course I wanna go with you, especially with no Alhaitham! I haven’t been that busy lately, so I’d much rather spend time with you than do nothing”

-Kaveh (He was stuttering slightly due to the embarrassment of being surprised by you again but very much happy with that idea)

im getting the sense you like kaveh... (very nice theme btw. very pleasing colors. eichi jumpscare indeed tho)

how're you mihai?

I lure you in with a blond babygirl and bam. Another blond babygirl. Following me is so worth it.

Im sooo eepy but im not going to sleep until Mar pulls for Baizhu and Kaveh in a few mins. We had to change themes to celebrate their release of course.

[sauce-cat]

1. Your drawing of yourself is very cute I like it. Also at first I was like "look at that cutie who are they?"

2.do you have a picture of your fursona on here?

3. Don't mind me and my charmed ass here in your askbox.

aH tHANK YOU i like to use myself for How To Draw Human Person art practice / warm-ups, as it's easier for me to not to nitpick my art all to hell if i goof up on the anatomy

my fursona is this Rat! his name is Sebastian. this blog is exclusively for my human/humanoid fanart posting and practice. Sebastian's art gets posted over at @godbirdart with all my other furry doodles. sometimes there's some fandom crossover, like this art of sebastian holding kaveh and baizhu; from when i pulled kaveh 435374598 times just to Get to baizhu. what a jerk

hope i'm not jumpscaring people Too Bad from mentioning the words "Furry" and "Fursona". to be honest, my furry blog is 90% pictures of trees.
