#anyways stop scrolling he'd like to vibe check you

DPxDC AU: Tim receives an interesting email from DalvCo explaining why the CEO is not to be trusted- It's an internal email and suddenly Tim is experiencing supernatural phenomena. He knows that the two events are absolutely related, but he's going to let the cutie stumble his way through data points and vague threats anyway.

(Sorry this got long lmao)

Tim is exhausted after a long night of staking out a new drug cartel with Hood (which in itself took a lot of energy from both of them to have the patience for the other- things are good, not great)... so right now he's logging into his WE email on the train to his office because he's incredibly late. And while he scrolls and contemplates the failsafes he has to make sure Tam doesn't murder him outright- he sees an unexpected email from Vladimir Masters.

Tim's curiosity is piqued, he'd thought that Vlad would have gotten the hint after Tim dismissed him at that Christmas gala a few years ago. Most people took Tim's snubbing as a fatality in the Gotham socialite scene- Most knew him to be 'an agreeable young man', and Tim's reputation had paid a small price for making Vlad's failed vibe check known to the room. The tabloids blamed it on the champagne glass he had in his hand- Has he mentioned how much he hates Vicky Vale lately??

Tim has a few stops to go and he's pretty sure that he's going to delete the email, but in sleep deprived inspiration, he decides it might as well entertain him while he waits. The letter isn't at all what he expected.

"Hello Wayne Enterprise's CEO Tim Drake, I'm sending you this letter on behalf of the entire Midwest to advise that you, under no circumstances, come into contact with or speak to the CEO of DalvCo Vlad Masters. He is underhanded and utilizes untraceable tactics to procure deals. We have reason to believe you may be targeted in the next few days and hope that you are able to take steps for your own safety to avoid Vlad Masters at all costs.

Sincerely, 👑"

Tim feels bewildered for a moment and then... Like a cat with a new toy mouse. A game was afoot! He needed to track down these hackers, he needed to be their best fucking friend (find out their secrets & Vlads) and he needed to apprehend Vlad ASAP! Untraceable tactics? Tim scoffs, but the challenge excites him.

Arriving at WE, Tam looks ready to throw a knife his way (he reminds her that Pru does it better) and states that if Vlad Masters tries to make an appointment- accept it but give him the run around. Make an appointment and continue to contest it, change it, delay it until Tim is actually ready for him. The lights start to flicker, both of them notice it.

Everytime Tim gets a second to investigate Vlad in his office, the room's temperature drops. Tim notices it, and having experienced a number of supernatural phenomena, he knows it has to be related.

Tim decides not to beat around the bush. He comes back to the office that night equipped with a Ouija board, candles and a bag of other occult accessories. He quickly finds, upon setting up, that there is now a groaning Teenager in front of him- lambasting his efforts and chastizing him for taking a meeting with Vlad. Did he not get the fuckin memo??

Tim quickly begins to ask his questions, grateful to not have to deal with the party game board, and takes diligent notes.

"Right, so, you're just a concerned citizen ghost who knows what kind of nefarious deeds Vlad gets up to, how?" ---

Danny is losing his shit. Here he is, having done all the ground work to tell this guy not to meet with Vlad and he's already got him on the schedule! Danny took a page from Technus' book and transported himself alongside the short email. He didn't get this guy at all! Tim was like, basically the same age and clearly super fucking smart, why was he acting like this was a fucking birthday gift? Scratch that, the dude has a Ouija Board- it's like a lame ass birthday party in here!

Danny cannot help himself but return to the visible spectrum and give this guy a talking to- Which, the atmosphere of a birthday party still doesn't change, for ancient's sake this guy is taking notes with a megawatt smile! He's smiling! Danny just described Vlad taking down like, three American dynasties and the dude is nodding his head along gleefully.

Then suddenly, Danny realizes that he might be on the chopping block. Tim asks his first question and it's not about Vlad at all.

"Er, yeah. Just a concerned ghost citizen." Danny cringes.

"Right, and that's why you hacked into the Mayor of your town's email... Right Tucker?"

Danny blanches, not because the guy knew about Amity Park, but because apparently Tucker's online persona had been compromised. SHIT.

"Uh, I'm not Tucker." Danny attempts to lie- why was he so bad at lying again?!

"Of course you aren't, he's currently playing doomed, but it would have been smart to take the out I offered you. Do you want to tell me your name or do you want me to throw out another random guess? You should know that I've done my homework."

"...It's Danny."

"Certainly not Danny Fenton? Who is, sorry to say it, heir to DalvCo? The same one who totally doesn't have a school record of absences equivalent to well documented town hauntings?"

"Yep." Danny cringes, and giving up the goat, transforms back into his human self, "But seriously dude, you can't meet with Vlad. He'll just... take it all."

Tim blinks at him a few times, and his cheeks flush. Danny desperately tries to ignore that response as well as his own (he knows his ears are red, sue him).

"Right. Well, how would you like an internship? First order of business would be meeting with me and my PA Tam and helping us play ball." The guy has a feral grin. The grin kind of scares Danny, it definitely annoys him and a small part of him is curiously charmed.

"Dude you're not hearing me-" Danny tries before being cut off.

"Yeah yeah, supernatural bullshit is involved, Got that." Tim waves him off. Okay never mind, not charmed at all, Danny is completely annoyed.

"I swear to all the ancients-" Danny has to stop himself to calm down, "Dude consider yourself fucking haunted. I'm not helping you with a suicide mission to talk to the creep and I will be making your ass miserable for deciding to go down this path."

"Is that a promise?" Tim is basically batting his eyelashes at Danny and Danny is desperately trying to ignore that.

"Bet." And then he goes invisible.

"That's cute, pretending to leave me." Tim smirks and Danny can't help but let out an exasperated groan.

As it turns out, Tim is incredibly difficult to spook and his normal haunting methods are not fucking working. Has this guy just, like, seen every single horror movie?

----

Tim knows this is going to be fun, even if it means not going out as Red Robin for a while... Maybe he should get back into his night photography and give the guy a chance to enhance the creepiness of Gotham? Maybe start going to restaurants alone and get the guy to join him at a secluded two person table? Tim has plans on plans on plans.

[bloggerspam]

The car ride to the hotel is deathly silent and incredibly uncomfortable.

Dick tries to salvage some kind of conversation, but Star dons on the fakest smile he's ever seen (and he's seen a lot at galas) and simply says "Hon, I'm drivin'."

When they arrive Star keeps the car running and fixes her lipstick in a silent bid for them to get out and stay out.

When the last door is shut, the car zooms off without so much as a by your leave. Delightful.

The brothers share a look, before they enter this dinky hotel they booked for their two night stay. The receptionist desk is empty, but there's a woman and man Tim's age waiting around in the lobby.

The woman is the darkest spot in the modern looking beige interior. She's covered heavy black and purple make up, long black hair shaved on one side, with a lip piercing that's connected to her ear via a long silver chain. She's sporting a black croptop, leather jacket, black paid mini skirt and long black "fuck off" boots as Steph would say. She's also tapping her foot and looking very impatient at them.

The man is fiddling with a very outdated looking PDA beside her, tongue sticking out in concentration. His dreadlocks poke out under his red beret, and his glasses seem to have scrolling down the left lens. He's got a mustard yellow turtle neck form fitted to him, with an Ankh necklace hanging heavy on his chest, and baggy khaki pants that end in sensible brown boots. He also clearly doesn't care about them.

"Took you long enough, Wayne boys." The woman says. She seems vaguely familiar, now that Tim thinks about it, but he can't place it.

"We weren't aware we were on a schedule." Dick says, trying to be cheery despite his misgivings. They were expecting Phantom. She rolls her eyes.

"Change of plans. Some business came up, so instead of Phantom you get the Welcome Committee."

"Business?" Jason feels like something is a little of with this town. That woman Star gave him strange vibes, but she had nothing on the two before him. He'd even say they were the closest giving the same vibe as Phantom, and doesn't that sound suspicious?

Just then, a loud explosion rings out outside--not near enough to cause any alarm, apparently, but close enough that they can hear the explosion.

"Just a couple of visitors. Nothing to worry about. Can I see your phone?" The man answers, looking directly at Tim.

"What? No." Tim says reflexively, going so far as to step back. The man pouts.

"Aw come on! You gotta have the latest Wayne Tech, bein' CEO and all. You probably have a dozen!" He whines, moving closer only to be stopped by the goth woman.

"Tucker, leave your antics for dinner. We have a tour to give and reservations for 6."

"What even is there to show, Sam? FentonWorks? The school?"

That seems to trip up Sam, apparently, and she lapses into a thoughtful silence before sighing.

Damian takes the opportunity to huff. "Perhaps we could go to our rooms and settle in for a bit? We've just had an unpleasant drive over."

"And what? Give ya'll time to collude?" Tucker says, back on his PDA. Distantly, three more explosions ring out, and an eerie cackle echoes.

"Is that gonna be an issue?" Dick says, pointing vaguely towards the explosions and hoping to change the subject.

"No. Answer the question." Sam says, back to tapping her foot.

"We just want to take a little breather--you're gonna see us at dinner anyway right? At 6, you said?" Dick tries again, even checking his watch. He notices that interface of his watch is blinking random numbers now. That's not good.

"Definitely colluding." Sam huffs out, reaching into her purse for something. Jason tenses, because he definitely saw a gun in there, but all she pulls out is a mirror and lipstick. What is with the women of this town dismissing them via lipstick application?

"There is definitely no colluding going on here." Tim says, trying to sound firm and only sounding whiney. He needs a coffee desperately.

"Tt. I don't understand what the problem is. We have told your Phantom that we have minimal business here, and that we are only tangentially related to the League. What is the issue? The League is full of heroes." Damian has lost his patience. Too bad Dick wasn't able to tell him about the lying thing--shit.

"The issue is, pint-size, we don't take too kindly to League business at all. And cut the crap. We know you're not telling the whole truth. Rev' here didn't tell you?" Sam hooks a thumb towards Jason, who scrunches up his shoulders uncharacteristically.

"What do you mean?" Damian demands, only for Sam to scoff at him. He looks over towards Jason, who shakes his head. Dick responds instead.

"Phantom can tell when we're lying--that what he whispered to me before we got in the car. I just...didn't get the opportunity to tell you." Dick says lowly. Sam smirks, and Tucker snorts a small laugh.

"Weren't you guys supposed to be on a tour?" Phantom says, suddenly appearing behind Damian.

Damian, out of reflex, immediately turns to stab the intruder only to go though him instead. He stares blankly at the unblemished chest in front of him. What just happened?

"Stabby little guy aren't ya. That'll be fun, if you mind your business."

"You'll have to pardon him--he's uh, he grew up in a unique environment." That illicits a round of laughter from the Amity Parkers, to the confusion of the Waynes.

"No kiddin'? Welcome to the club." Phantom says. He's a little dirtier now that they're looking, but no worse for wear. He's also holding a thermos, for some reason.

"How was Skulker?" Tucker asks, finally putting away his PDA, though the glasses stay active.

"The usual. Pelt on his wall, purpleback gorilla research to be done, butt kicking and what not. He says hey, by the way. Anyway. Tour?"

"That's the thing, what exactly are we supposed to show them? Also, they want to go back to their rooms to collude." Tucker says, pointing at the brothers.

"There is no colluding! We are not colluding, no plans at all to collude! We just wanted to take a break!" Dick says, exasperated.

"Oh let them be. They can collude if they want. The only one who can even touch me is the revenant--sorry which one was he, right Jason--and look at him! He's harmless." Phantom says, swirling around the two before sinking into the floor and coming back up behind Jason. He finishes his statement by draping himself over Jason's shoulders and squishes his cheeks together with one hand under his chin, as if to emphasize how harmless a 6ft, 225lbs brick shithouse of a man is.

Jason smacks his hand away, before tensing as if realizing how precarious their place is. When he turns his head to make eye contact, Phantom has already phased through him (and that's a weird feeling) to twirl back between his friends, draping an arm over each of their shoulders.

"I'll lead ya'll to your rooms. Dinner's at 6, so one of us will come by in about an hour. Collude, pool your info, figure out what you'll say. It won't matter in the end." Phantom says, waving a careless hand. All three of the Amity Parker's make eye contact, eyes glowing eerily.

"If the League wants to meddle after all this time, well. You'll see how that will work out for you."

DP x DC prompt #189

You know those prompts where Danny refuses to enter Red Hood's territory because he knows not to enter a ghosts territory? Yeah, this is the opposite.

Batman sends a few of the Batfam to Amity Park to investigate the ghost sightings. When they get there, however, Jason refuses to step into the town due to some instinctual feeling he has.

The Angel's Return

It's been a few weeks since the first time Azusa and (Y/N) met. Way too long in Azusa's opinion.

Numerous times has he walked that same path again, catious of where he ends up this time. Only when he could see the city buildings in the distance he stood still. Usually he'd just look around to see if he could spot his favorite human somewhere, but to no avail.

Everytime, he returned home with a disappointed expression on his face, if only he could look deeper. His anxiety prevented him to do so, sadly.

The thought of (Y/N) being the one looking for him made him feel less bad about it though.

Just imagine...His angel returning to him with a bright smile, talking about how much he missed him, how bad and lonely he felt without him...

Azusa can't help, but smile at that thought.

And that was one of the signs that made Kou curious about what his little brother has been doing the past few weeks.

The teal-haired never responded. Kou being Kou though, he quickly guessed what it was, exclaiming it loud and proud during dinner one day, "Our Azusa found himself a human!"

The vampire in question only responded with, "He's an angel.", ignoring most of the questions his brothers threw at him.

"Why not bring him here then?", is pretty much the only thing Ruki asked.

Azusa stared at his plate, sadness clear in his eyes, "I can't find him..." "Huh? Then we'll look for him! You remember his face and name right?", Yuma suggested.

"Yes, but..."

"But what?"

"I know he'll come to see me...He said it himself."

The brothers were a bit skeptical about that, but this was Azusa's human, so it was Azusa's desicion.

Yuma clicked his tongue, "Fine then. But when he doesn't show up soon, we're ready to get him here."

And at the same time, at another place...

"You sure you want to go? Alone?", Akito asked, frowning at his friend who was just talking exactly about what Azusa hoped for.

"Yeah, why not? I mean, I don't have to go inside. We could just take a stroll around.", (Y/N) responded, while scrolling through his Google Maps history to find the vampire's address.

"...", Dakota stared at the (Y/HC)-haired, "You know...being the dumb and naive one is my job in this friend group."

Akito nodded wildly, "He's absolutely right! When did you turn into such a dumbass, dumbass!?"

(Y/N) pursed his lips, "He's cute, alright??"

Akito and Dakota froze.

They froze for a long while.

"SIMP!!! SIMP!!! SIMP!!!", they chanted simultaneously, while pointing their fingers at (Y/N).

"Shut up, would ya!?"

And they did.

But that didn't stop them from following their friend to the mansion, though.

They were really suspicious of that Azusa guy. Sure, he seemed like having his own problems and such, but what happened exactly to make (Y/N) so fond of him??

He can't possibly be that cute right?

Dakota, a bisexual, wanted to find out, 'vibe check' him as he called it.

They ended up agreeing to take that as an excuse to stalk (Y/N) all the way out there. Not because they were scared something might happen to their dear friend, no-

If (Y/N) found out about that, he'd be pretty mad. He hates it when people think he couldn't stand his own.

Yeah, he might seem like a nice and gentle guy, and he is don't get me wrong, but he can bite when he has to.

That's why he wasn't scared to pay his acquaintance a visit by himself. It was just meant as a friendly gesture anyway, he told himself while pushing other thoughts about Azusa to the very back of his mind. He was kind of embarrassed he had thoughts in that direction, honestly

The (Y/HC)-haired made himself ready to knock on the big front door. It didn't feel like a long time since he stood infront of it for the first time, eyes gleaming with interest and amazement.

He's still amazed about the fact he met someone who lived in a dang mansion. And that he never came across it before.

After taking a long breath, he finally knocked, stepping a few steps back as he waited for an answer.

He was hoping for Azusa to open the door, honestly.

If he remembered correctly, Azusa said he lived with his brothers. So there was a chance of one of them answering the door instead of him.

And well, (Y/N) wanted to dodge that awkward feeling he'd feel while introducing himself and asking for the teal-haired.

Because there was no guarantee Azusa told his brothers about him and well...Wouldn't it be weird to open the door to a stranger who claims to have helped their little brother find his way home, which is also the reason he has their address-

Now that (Y/N) started overthinking, he began to think this was quite the bad idea.

But well, he already knocked so-

His train of thought was interrupted by a black-haired man opening the door.

It's not Azusa...great.

Ruki's cold blue eyes looked the human up and down in slight interest. He certainly didn't expect a random human at his door...so it might be-

"U-uh, hello! I'm (Y/N) and- uh- I was wondering if Azusa was home?", that alone was enough to confirm Ruki's suspicion.

Unbeknownst to (Y/N), his friends hid behind a tree and watched him from afar. They were too far away to be able to hear anything, but close enough to see their movements clearly.

Ruki, however, noticed them staring intensely at the two of them.

"Did you come here by yourself?", he asked, without even introducing himself before.

"Yeah, why?"

The vampire kept looking at the male infront of him, staring him down for a few seconds before accepting his answer as not a lie.

(Y/N) grew nervous under his cold gaze, but he stood his ground. This wasn't his first staring contest.

"Wait here."

Ruki went back inside, closing the door behind him as he did so.

The moment the door made a click sound, the (Y/HC)-haired exhaled a breath he didn't notice he was holding in.

"Holy shit...", he muttered to himself, "That was intense."

A few moments later, the door reopened. But instead of revealing that scary looking black-haired, it was a bashfully smiling Azusa who peecked his head through the door.

"(Y/N)...", he greeted with a voice full of longing. It made (Y/N) feel like the two of them had a much deeper connection than they actually had for a second. Why else would the shorter one be so happy to see him again?

Anyhow, the human smiled brightly at him, "Hi, Azusa!", he went to scratch the back of his head nervously, "I hope you don't mind me showing up at your door so suddenly."

"I don't mind...", he looked up at (Y/N), who was talking about how he was starting to overthink all this. As the vampire did so, he ran his fingers up and down his new scars on his left arm.

(Y/N) didn't see it since everything, but Azusa's head, was covered by the thick wooden door.

Azusa blushed slightly as he thought back to what he was doing earlier. He started to wonder if the human would really do what he imagined him doing to him if he asked nicely.

Does (Y/N) like pain too?

Either way, he didn't want to cut straight to the chase, as much as he actually wanted to, since he liked the thought of his angel keep coming back to see him. So he pulled down his sleeves and pushed back the urges to ask the taller one if he wanted to see his knife collection or anything of that sorts.

This was the first time he was so obssessed with the thought of being together with a human, having that human all to himself.

The vampire didn't want to ruin his chances and risk (Y/N) saying that he hated him before saying that he loved him. Not that Azusa would ever want (Y/N) to hate him.

Yes, his mind already went that far and he didn't mind it at all.

After pulling at his sleeves a bit more, he opened the door further, revealing the rest of his petite body. "I'm so happy you're...here.", Azusa reached out and grabbed one of (Y/N) hands in both of his.

The other was taken aback by that, both by his words and the physical touch, but he said nothing about it. He just chuckled, "I'm happy seeing you doing better, bud."

"Hmm...", Azusa wasn't really fond of that nickname, but he let it be for now.

Meanwhile behind that tree...

Akito frowned, "Alright, that's sus."

Dakota nodded in agreement, "Yes, very sus."

And back to the other two...

"So...uhm...Do ya wanna join me on my stroll?", (Y/N) tilted his head to the side, waiting for a response. And he didn't have to wait long since Azusa immediately stepped outside and closed the door behind him, "I'd love to..."

"Great!", (Y/N) responded back a bit stiffly. He certainly wasn't expecting Azusa to jump in on it so quickly. Almost as if he knew this was coming.

Or maybe he was hoping for it. Longing even.

Either way. the two of them started to walk, leaving Akito and Dakota behind them.

(Y/N) has yet to notice them, unlike Azusa who got the info from his brother. Azusa really hoped they would just go away and leave them be.

But the two teens acted against his unspoken wishes as they continued to follow their friend and his soon to be lover acquaintance crush.

Azusa was getting a little fidgety, feeling their gazes on his back. He couldn't even listen to what (Y/N) was saying properly. It was clear to him that they didn't trust him completely. He wasn't mad about it or anything, he was actually kind of glad (Y/N) got friends who cared for him like this.

But he didn't like it in that moment.

Azusa wanted to be alone with his angel and just enjoy these moments with him. He missed that certain feeling of being watched over and being taken care of by the (Y/HC)-haired.

And he really didn't want them to interrupt and ruin it by making him feel judged or anything of that sorts.

(Y/N), of course, noticed the pink-eyed starting to fidget with his fingers and lowering his head, "Hey, you okay?"

"Hmm...", Azusa stood still, making the other halt as well, "I feel like...someone is following us..."

The two of them turned their heads to look behind them, startling Akito and Dakota which caused them to trip before they could hide again.

"Wait...is that...?", (Y/N) narrowed his eyes at the two teens in the near distance, "You gotta be kidding- I- Imma be right back-"

(Y/N) speedwalked over to the two idiots, getting ready to scold the shit out of them.

Meanwhile, Azusa watched the scene, starting to feel a bit better if he's being honest. He knew (Y/N) was trying his best to make him feel comfortable. And (Y/N) damn well remembered how uncomfortable Azusa was when Akito and Dakota came over to check out what happened.

It was basically watching someone you like remove some kind of insect from your wall.

Or tell some bullies to fuck off.

And Azusa liked that very much. He was really grateful as well since there were only a few people who actually cared about his well being before. Three to be excact. And that being his brothers.

He watched with his pink eyes how the two teens left and how his angel returned to his side. Azusa was carrying a small smile on his face.

"Sorry about that...I swear they really don't mean any harm.", the taller one apologized as he bowed down infront of the vampire.

Azusa, again, took one of (Y/N)'s hands in his own. This seemed like a gesture he will recieve quite a lot, is what the (Y/HC)-haired thought.

"Thank you...", the vampire's voice was full of gratefullness and adoration. (Y/N) was starting to think he didn't deserve to recieve anything like that.

The human didn't do anything that noteworthy to make anyone feel so thankful towards him. Or maybe he did and just didn't realize it.

"Hey, no need to thank me, okay?", (Y/N) chuckled nervously, giving the male infront of him a bright smile, "That's what lovers friends do right?"

The moment these words left his mouth he widened his eyes in horror and began to stutter while a blush slowly crept onto his face, "I'm sorry, I didn't- I mean- I- uhm- It's just a way of saying-", he just kept on triping over his own words and it made him more and more embarrassed.

Friend.

"Hmm..."

It wasn't quite the word he had in mind himself, but...

Azusa looked up in (Y/N)'s flushed face, right before (Y/N) covered it up with his hands to hide it away.

...it was enough for now.

"I'm happy...to be your friend."

(Y/N) slowly parted his fingers to be able to see through them, "Huh?"

He didn't get an answer, just a sweet little smile and a tuck on his hand, urging him to keep walking.

I swear, saying (Y/N) was confused about absolutely everything would be an understatement-

Azusa, anyhow, knew he wasn't going to let his angel leave anytime soon.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤCelebrity crush, Genshin boys idol! au

admitting you're their celebrity crush and their reaction to your reaction

includes: kaeya, diluc, zhongli and xiao

( can't stop thinking about idol! au genshin. any type of celebrity but it's hinted that you're a singer in xiao's. )

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ〔 KAEYA ALBERICH ━━ FROSTWIND SWORDSMAN 〕

━━ this man is sooooo fucking slick with it.

━━ he'll slyly bring it up in an interview or a live with a smirk on his face and then act as if it never happened when someone questions him.

━━ his members just stares at him when he brings you up, knowing, that beneath that sly persona and nonchalant act, there was millions pounds worth of fan merchandise in his room.

━━ he would evade the subject and if it's an interview, the host would have to pry answers from his members instead as he sits there proudly with a smile on his face as his members tell his fan behaviour instead of him.

━━ in a live, he would somehow convince his fans they were hallucinating but someone would post the clip and everyone would just go ballistic, it'd be one of those "top ten things i can't believe kaeya managed to get away with: gaslighting his fans into believing they were crazy."

"Who's your favourite celebrity?" Kaeya reads out from the comments passing quickly through his Instagram live, he pretends to think. A smile forms on his face when he 'decides' on an answer, "probably [Name]."

He watches the comments speed through even quicker before changing the subject, dropping the matter as if it never happened. His fans are all freaking out though, wanting to get more details on his crush on the celebrity but Kaeya ignores all comments about the subject. They never die down though, only ending when Kaeya himself ends the live.

━━ you may have ended on the same show some time after him and the host brings it up ( 100% planned for views ).

━━ it makes you smile because you've already been informed about this topic by your fans and kaeya's.

━━ you'd end up thanking kaeya for the support and say that you've also been lowkey a fan of his group but you've never openly stated that to anyone.

━━ his fans and your fans immediately get to work and start tagging kaeya's insta/twitter, group and personal, under the clip of you shyly admitting you're a fan of his also and he goes mental.

━━ probably sits there watching the entire interview with a huge smile on his face, and it doesn't leave, not even after he finishes the interview ( bonus: diluc is very disturbed ).

━━ HUGE ego boost for the rest of the day. kaeya's normally very confident but he's extra confident, like starts strutting around like he's the shit and even had the balls to nod his head at diluc as if to say "what's up" with the largest shit eating grin on his face.

━━ diluc definitely thought he was picking a fight.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ〔 DILUC RAGNVINDR ━━ DARKNIGHT HERO 〕

━━ more likely to come from one of his members than him.

━━ or he'd be very smooth with it, and brings it up rather subtly. it'd be a small "oh, i ingest their content and enjoy it" and he'd just continue about his day

━━ and his fans will still go insane because diluc actually enjoying something seems weird, especially another celebrity's work

━━ this would obviously reach you, who was an open fan of his group, and you'd freak out when you see it but wouldn't bring it up because he only said he enjoyed your work, not he was a fan.

━━ would definitely get questioned if he was being interviewed on a talk show, he wouldn't evade the question.

━━ he doesn't really see a point in lying, so he simply shrugs and tells the host that he is a fan and owns some merchandise.

"Diluc, a few fans are curious about your statement the other day," the host redirects the questions to Diluc, who raises an eyebrow. "Is it true that you're a fan of [Name]?"

The question makes his heart pick up a little, he leans back on his chair and clears his throat, composing himself before nodding. "I am a fan," the host seems happy by his response. The conversation continues to steer in this direction, asking Diluc if he had attended any fan meetings or merchandise, how he would feel if you two collaborated for a project and then finally ending once the host asks other members if they were fans of anyone.

━━ he thinks nothing of it, continuing with his day as usual but when he gets mentioned by your twitter? the man loses his shit.

━━ he sits there staring at his screen like he was hallucinating and literally tunes everything else out, staring at your little: "i'd love to work with you too!" message with a small smiley face at the end.

━━ he checks the account multiple times just in case it was one of his fans trolling him but clicking on the @ takes him back to your account so he gives in at some point

━━ he types out a normal, professional "thank you, i hope a time comes when we can collaborate" and "i look forward to more of your works" but he's still losing his shit.

━━ stays in his mind for at least a week.

━━ fans always bring up the fact that y'all never did end up collaborating.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ〔 ZHONGLI ━━ VAGO MUNDO 〕

━━ the public is very aware.

━━ he's never made an attempt to hide how he is a fan, not even the massive poster in his room or the little keychain that he hangs on his bag nor the red eyeliner belonging to a makeup brand that you became a brand embassador for, also now one of his favourite brands.

━━ so no one is really surprised when he talks about you or your upcoming work, what is kinda surprising is when he straight up says that he says you're his ideal type.

━━ not because it's shocking that you'd be anyone's ideal type but because they didn't expect the out of the blue question from host and it's even more mind boggling when the man doesn't even stutter nor even think before just saying your name.

━━ members are sat beside him literally losing their shit in both negative ( scandals and shit ) and positive ( it's fucking hilarious ) ways as he just blinks.

━━ he doesn't even look the slightest bit worried as he stares dead straight through the host's head.

━━ obviously scandals emerge, there are positive and negative reactions. some people suddenly realise how good you two would look together and others are mad you "stole" their man because we have delulus in all fandoms.

"So Zhongli," the host starts before clearing his throat, obviously a tad uncomfortable under the eldest member's sudden gaze, "who is your ideal type?" The members also seem curious, as they stop their interactions, staring over at their unusually emotionless member.

One member laughs, waving the question off as a joke and as a way to avoid any possible scandals, knowing that Zhongli wouldn't filter his words due to his lacking understanding of social cues. "C'mon, there's no way that he has an id━━"

"If I had to say, then [Name] suits my preferences." The member who tried to wave it off blinks, staring at Zhongli like he just murdered someone and other members laugh. The host seems pleasantly surprised, peering at the camera with a raised eyebrow and a certain look on his face. The entire studio never gets over it.

━━ it's brought to your attention on twitter because twitter is usually where shit goes down.

━━ you've always been aware that zhongli has been a fan but you've never been able to speak up about it due to your management.

━━ luckily for you, your contract with your previous strict company had ended just a while ago and under your new management, you were more free to do whatever you wanted.

━━ so obviously, you quote tweet the video, tag his account and say in a jokingly way that he should take you out on a date first.

━━ he doesn't publicly reply to your tweet because he already got in trouble with his management for answering such a risky question anyways and your tweet is a little too suggestive.

━━ but he also wants you to know he has seen the tweet. so his solution? to slip into your dms.

━━ and all of a sudden, the next time you're both seen together, you're besties? so people started connecting dots and shit, were they good at connecting them. moral of the story: never underestimate zhongli fans because collectively, they may be able to beat zhongli in an iq test.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ〔 XIAO ━━ CONQUEROR OF DEMONS 〕

━━ best believe this man got death threated or held at gunpoint into admitting you're his celebrity crush.

━━ or he didn't do it at all and his members confessed for him just to tease him.

━━ happens on a group live, members are just vibing.

━━ xiao is sat in the back somewhere, scrolling through his phone with his earphones in so he doesn't notice his members shifting the camera to him or jumps onto him whilst holding the camera.

━━ when he does notice though, he takes out his earbud and your song just blARES through his earphone and it's fucking loud.

━━ he immediately turns it down but his fellow member already has this shit eating grin on his face and jumps onto xiao, successfully grabbing his phone and showing the live of 100k+ people.

━━ his homescreen is one of those "boyfriend/girlfriend/partner material" lockscreens of you and it shows that your song had been playing.

━━ xiao literally attacks his members and grabs his phone back, walking off to escape the embarrassment but can hear the echoing laughter as he walks down the hallway and slams his door closed.

Xiao lets out a sudden 'oompf' when his members glomps right ontop of him, grinning widely as they held up a camera to show off themselves and Xiao. Glancing at the camera, Xiao takes off an earbud, freezing when a loud upbeat tune echoes throughout the open area. Xiao ignores the feeling of his face heating up and turns down the song, ignoring the obvious gleeful stare of his member.

Almost on instinct, he moves his phone away but curse his parents for their genes because all it takes is a little stretching for his member to have his greasy fingers all over his phone, ripping it out of his hands and immediately running away to shield themselves from the wrath of all 5" and a bit of Xiao. When they deem it safe, they click on the home button of the screen, grinning amused at the homescreen.

"Look at fanboy Xiao!" And just like that, Xiao's cold demeanour had been shatteres infront of a plethora of people.

━━ you find it one of the most endearing things ever.

━━ literally how could you not? you find pride in yourself to have such a popular member of an idol group enjoy your work and it helps gain a little more confidence in yourself.

━━ it's brought up on a talk show kinda casually where the host is one of your friends so they are slightly teasing you for it all the whilst remaining on the professional side.

━━ and it's obvious to say that you're embarrassed by the way you chuckle and mess with your fingers and hair, but you hold yourself together anyways and manage a sweet "thank you for the support" to xiao when the host asks if you wanted to say something in case he was watching.

━━ and the very next day, on xiao's official instagram, he has a signed album and poster of yours, tagged and everything.
