Catalyst is objectively the funniest weapon type because amongs the catalyst users we have:

BOMBS

*Throws rocks at you* *throws rocks at you* *throw rocks at you*

Stamp of JUSTICE

What? Catalyst? No, no. Gohei wand

Cast spell: THROW HANDS

Magic keyboard

Snake. (literally)

thinking about arranged marriage between kujou sara and kamisato!reader.......... sara, seeing for the first time what a family is really like when you both make the trip up to the kamisato estate. you make an effort to include her in your conversations, and though she’s a little awkward, she tries. takayuki had never allowed her to play with her adoptive siblings or any of the other kujou soldiers—roughly grabbing her by the arm so tightly she remembers tears stinging her eyes as he ranted to her about how she should not let such pointless things get in the way of her duty. but as she watches you mess around with your brother and lightheartedly tease your sister, she can’t help but think this is the furthest thing from pointless.

(an unfamiliar ache blooms in her chest; is this longing?)

sara, sharing a meal with someone for the first time. she’d been so, so isolated as a child, and even as a general, held to some impossible standard that no other mortal could reach. but you are her wife—her equal. so you sit next to her as you have breakfast, and you sit next to her again as you have dinner. you talk about the weather, about your brother, about your sister, about your work, and sara listens. she doesn’t hang on to each of your words; no, she cradles it tenderly against her chest, holds it in her battle-hardened hands and cherishes it.

(these are the words you only say to her. this is hers.)

sara who is so unbelievably touch-starved she doesn’t even realise it. her heart leaps into her throat the first time you take her hand in your own as you both stroll down the streets of hanamizaka on one of her rare days off—kamaji had to practically force her to take leave. you absently tug her along as you flit from shop to shop, and she waits patiently as you chat with ogura mio about new kimono designs. she sees your eyes linger on a dark purple, almost black silken cloth with golden highlights, and makes a mental note of it. the next morning she leaves the kujou estate before you wake, and heads straight to ogura’s shop to commission a kimono and yukata made from that very cloth. her coin purse ends up significantly lighter, but she can’t find it in herself to care.

(she pretends she doesn’t see the knowing look in ogura’s eye.)

sara being defended for the first time by you. harsh words and harsher hands are not unfamiliar to her—this is, after all, just how takayuki raised her. she has long since learned how to drown out the snide comments from the other nobles of the kujou clan who coveted her position or her prestige. she is used to it, really. but she can’t help the way her eyes widen by a fraction and her heart lurches in her chest again when you shoot an equally scathing response right back at the noble from over the rim of your teacup. she has been a protector for so, so long that she isn’t sure what to do with herself when you glance back at her, all while the noble fumes across the tatami mats. she just nods, and you offer her a smile, before commanding the nearby guards with all the authority of a general’s wife to remove the man from the premises.

(you squeeze her hand under the table and her throat tightens—is this what it’s like to matter?)

sara going to a festival for the first time with you. she’d only ever enjoyed these from the outskirts, watching the fireworks as a guard at her post instead of as a reveler. you bring her along hand in hand to try out all sorts of assorted street foods and festival games. the fireworks bloom in the sky like blazing flowers, and she watches as your hair tosses lightly in the wind. the light illuminates your face in hues of dancing gold, and for a moment she’s struck near senseless by the sight of you. you call her name, softly, and her heart trembles in her chest like a frightened bird. and then you kiss her, lips soft against her own and she’s melting into your touch. her wings burst out from her back, pulling a breathless giggle from you. sara blushes furiously, stammering out some excuse that you cut off by kissing her again.

(she doesn’t mind.)

navia: i love murder mysteries.

wriothesley, trying to impress her: i’ve been convicted in a murder case.

[followerofmercyart]

Something that I don’t think gets addressed with anemo boys often enough

[sadiecoocoo]

Everyone freaking out about the imaginarium theater taking away all their mains when I’m over here loyal to my beautiful anemo boys and Bennett and have basically never farmed for anyone else to get to the point of doing decent damage

Fontaine’s next generation of visions

I’ve been thinking about Furina’s vision and the reasons behind its shape. We know that the little sharp things around the gem are like dragon teeth, maybe a symbol of how Neuvillette is now the sole ruler of Hydro. But, what about the shape of the vision itself? Why is Furina’s a pneumousia vision?

I want to believe it’s because of Neuvillette himself. Previously, it was Focalor, and she was unable to canalise both arkhes on her own because it wasn’t her original power. That’s why, if you got your vision in Fontaine, it would follow the arkhe system. But now that the Hydro Dragon has regained his authority, he has control over this powers (which is canon btw). This would explain why Furina’s vision is pneumousia.

My theory is that now, Neuvi being Fontaine’s “god” (he would hate to be called that honestly), has unlocked a full control over this ability and the new vision holders might get all pneumousia visions, which would make the uniarkhe (only one arkhe) visions something akin to a relic.

It doesn’t mean the old visions stop working (why would they), it just means that future vision holders will have it easier dealing with any arkhe related issue.

Thinking about how there's a lot more ghosts wandering Mondstadt in the Archon Dvalin AU than usual because Venti is usually the one sending off spirits into the afterlife and well. he's kinda stuck on that side post-Cataclysm

At first there weren't any because they just followed Venti, but afterwards there were some that still lingered and the number just kept piling up over the centuries. Many did eventually go on their own, but there's just more that didn't want to or simply couldn't

Dvalin doesn't know how to send them off, no one really showed him how and he doubts that even if he knew, he probably couldn't. Still, whenever a spirit decides to show themself, he stays with them for a bit, just to alleviate their burdens even a little and maybe help them find enough peace

It's probably another thing that eats at him alive because he couldn't even help those that he failed to protect, no matter how much most of them say it isn't his fault

And then, after the whole reconciliation with Celio thing, one of the lingering spirits asks him for a song. Before, he might've gently turned down the request, but after everything, he decided he might as well

Dvalin starts singing an old song he loved. Singing it had been painful, once, considering it was made as a duet and having to listen to the silent answer just brought him nothing but grief. Now, there's a sort of peace to how the breeze and the sound of nature fill in the gaps and pauses.

Over the course of the song, more and more ghosts come to listen. By the end of it, Dvalin opens his eyes to see most of them disappear, not in terms of hiding away like usual but rather beginning to dissolve into light as they finally move on

The last one to leave was the one who requested a song. She turns to smile at him. "I suppose I can finally tell that bard how much you've grown," she says before finally dissipating into the wind

[avampyone]

I mostly finished up in Eureka Anemos yesterday and acquired the first BLM relic. It's so pretty! Curious to see how it'll evolve the further I go.

[speaknever12]

Venti literally solos all of the archons

Fight me grrrr

[huntingrays]

if i had a nickel for every time my favorite character was a second son who loves the arts/literature, just wants an easy life, and who’s best friend had some connection to evil spirits, i’d have two nickels

[coldwind-shiningstars]

apparently if your internet crashes in a particular way while you're using kinich's grappling skill he just keeps ascending unstoppably up into the air while the game tries to reload. he just rockets off into the stratosphere until you get reset

[tempests-bards-and-birds]

just realised that fontaine was the first nation where the winds didn't bless our travels 😔
