mahjong game 🀄
this is probably the most detailed thing ive ever drawn i feel so insane,, keep reading for some of the details you might have missed!!
first the shelf:
1st layer: shenyu and ganyu framed childhood pics
2nd layer: suspensus somium mechanism (furniture from xianyun's sq), the cloud retainer pet, the windmill thing from xianyun's trailer, the one she gave ganyu
3rd layer: scrolls and books one of them labeled "baby pics"
4th later: sunglo tea (the tea xianyun bought during the lantern rite event)
the side of the shelf has postcards from chenyu vale, and the kite shenhe and ganyu made leaning on it
ganyu dlsu grad pic AHJKSDF its a chinoy au now,,
for the calendar, there's no reason why i chose september 2023,, its just bc its the only reference i could find for this type of calendar. also the date encircled is sept 7 which is chongyun's birthday (重云 is written on it)
shenhe on the lower left corner bringing them tea, a fan is on the lower right corner. a vase of glaze lilies instead of guizhong huhu sorry
i tried my best to make the game as accurate and detailed as possible, ping is winning only waiting for the 三萬 tile (which is the one xianyun is discarding), ping also has a kong which is more points afaik (ty for the info poppy <3) mountain shaper is losing bc he has no consecutive tiles or 3 tiles of a kind. zhongli and ping also have flowers which also gives them extra points. this is all based on how me and my family would play mahjong so if its not accurate,, idk HADFAJSDF also i didn't count all the tiles bc there are 144 and i want this piece to be detailed but not THAT detailed,, anyway THAT'S ALL <3 i spent around 3 days working on this it's kinda insane.

Genshin dropping Madame Ping's lore in an event was absolutely vile like how dare they just give us the most heart-wrenchingly tragic sapphic rivalry. An inventor and an artist constantly arguing and Xianyun dragging Zhongli into it to mediate. They soon grow closer and one day Guizhong dies so suddenly and horrifically it makes Madame Ping rethink her ideas of immortality and death and descend to the human realm.
All she carries with her is a bell, made by Guizhong, a bell she previously viewed as unable to depict the soul in the way human-made music could. But it's not that anymore. In the way Madame Ping depicts the soul through music, Guizhong depicted it through creation. That bell carried Guizhong's soul, a soul she entwined with Madame Pings. That's why Zhongli gave it back to her when Madame Ping left for the mortal world.
When Zhongli requests the bell for his funeral, it carries so much more weight. He isn't just requesting a ceremonial bell, he's requesting Guizhong's soul and love, he's requesting a mourner who departed far earlier than him. He's also requesting a blessing from Madame Ping, to live as a human.
Madame Ping takes the appearance of an elderly woman, somebody who is weary and full of wisdom. She has lived lifetimes and she shows it in her form. She mentors young creators around her, Xiangling, Yanfei, Yaoyao and the like. She gives the Traveler a teapot, so they have a place to call home for a little while. She cares for the glaze lillies, because they are the scattered notes of the torn sheet music that's Guizhong's love for humanity. She doesn't play music anymore, because the only one who could hope to understand her tune, the one attuned to her soul, is gone.
Her last song was to mourn Guizhong because grief is love with nowhere to go. She put it in music created with callused hands, like Guizhong's making of the bell. She played for a lantern, a love, a ghost.
She played for Guizhong.

Adepti Family Dinner
A fic I wanna write someday!
When the adepti find out about Ganyu and Keqing's relationship, they organize a get together to get to know Keqing on a more personal note. The original guest list is Cloud Retainer, Shenhe, Moon Carver, Mountain Shaper, Madame Ping, Zhongli, Xiao, Ganyu, and Keqing.
Keqing is worried the dinner will be spent with the adepti scrutinizing her as a partner for Ganyu, but to her surprise they sing her praises the whole night. The scrutiny is directed toward Childe, who is there as Zhongli's partner.
Venti, being Xiao's partner, also shows up during the dinner.
This is how Keqing and Shenhe learn the identities of both Rex Lapis and Barbatos in a single evening.
