#but I want to keep kaeya among them because he’s him and I only know him as master so

[kaiisers]

*sigh* I want to have a main in genshin but I have zero idea of who of my measly characters is worth it 🥹

[burquillos]

diluven misses you and so to do i miss it 😔

Will you accept this drabble I have in my notes:

"Don't you like the bard?"

"Whether I like the bard or not hardly accounts for whether I should pursue him or not."

"Actually, I think liking the bard is all the reason you need to pursue him."

Diluc let's out a tired sigh. He doesn't want to have to explain Venti's kind of secret alter ego to Kaeya of all people. He's exhausted. He wants to go home.

But things have been going well with Kaeya lately and he was happy when they started opening up to each other again on this particular night. Well, up until Kaeya opened up the conversation about his love life. Kaeya had always pestered him about it, even as a kid. Both him and his father, ever the romantics.

Though annoyed, he appreciates the sentiment because he knows it comes from a place of genuine concern. Keaya wants reassurance that he will be fine and that someone will take care of him and love him even when him and his father aren't there. Knowing Kaeya, not wanting him to be alone is deeply valuable. However...

"It's complicated" Diluc scowls.

Kaeya leans on his forearm on the counter. He looks at Diluc, unamused.

"You like him. You obviously want to be with him. And from the looks of it he likes you back. What's so complicated about that?"

Diluc doesn't respond but he can feel a slight tingling on his fingertips and his cheeks as he stands there tense and frozen.

Kaeya closes his eyes in contemplation, "Ah..I see."

"What?"

"Master Ragnvindr of the Dawn Winery must not be seen engaging in romantic affairs with a mere commoner. How tragic-"

"No."

It was out before he knew it. Said too fast and too defensively to be considered casual. Like letting a part of himself accidentally slip from his tight grasp.

Kaeya couldn't have been more wrong. Venti is far from a mere commoner. His identity as Barbatos is... holy and powerful. The kind of being who can move mountains, literally and figuratively. His whole life he tried to be worthy of only two people and that included his late father and Barbatos.

But even that pales in comparison to Venti himself; kind and compassionate, cunning when he needs to be, he brings joy and laughter to the people of Mondsatdt with his songs. He listens to his people and guides them into action, never hesitating to reach out to others, even a person like him who has built walls around himself.

Venti has a way of seeing through him but has never once used it against him. He keeps the hidden, little pieces of Diluc tucked away and keeps it safe.

He wants to believe that there is something special about that. That that kind of treatment is something Venti gives to him and him alone.

But he knows Venti's love is grand and extends far and wide over Mondsatdt and its citizens. He knows he's nothing more but a speck among countless others that recieve that kind of godly love from him.

As a protector of Mondsatdt, he cannot afford to be selfish with Venti's love, not when Mondstadt needs it more than him. He is quite well off in terms of status and wealth after all. Honestly, Diluc is quite content to love from afar.

In the end, all he could mutter was a soft "He's too good for me..."

Kaeya barks out a laugh, slamming his hand on the table and leaning back. "VENTI!?" he wipes a tear from his eye "You're saying this about Venti?! The drunkard?? The guy who regularly schemes his way for some apples and booze??"

"You know what I mean."

"No. I don't"

"Well I'm not tired enough to have this conversation."

"Fair enough."

Kaeya leaves a few coins on the counter then stands up to leave. Before he could exit the door, he turns back to Diluc. "For the record, he said the same thing about you being too good for him." Finally, he leaves.

Diluc is left staring at the door. He can't quite believe that statement. He's not looking down on himself or anything, he knows he's quite sought after, he even uses that as an advantage when negotiating sometimes.

It's just that, compared to Venti who shines brightly and whose smile literally lights up the room, he feels like such a downer in comparison.

Once upon a time in his life, he might've had the same smile too, but he's changed since then. He's not the golden child with a loving family running around Mondstadt fulfilling his dreams anymore. His fire has long ceased to be kind and burns with rage and vindication instead. He feels as if he can't have that smile back. That if Venti stands next to him and gives him a little grin he can't smile back with the warmth and kindness he deserves. That all Venti would see is a broken man.

He feels too bare with Venti and that is something he cherishes deeply and also something he dreads.

Lean In. {Kaeya x Reader}

Description:  

A fic where Kaeya teases reader and they decide to “fight” back. 

───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────

Tags: fluff, kissing, flirting, part of me feels like kaeya is ooc but im cutting myself some slack bc it was my first time writing him LKJSDFH, reader is NOT mc/lumine/aether!, not beta'd, not edited, gender neutral reader, genshin impact x reader, kaeya x reader, genshin impact, kaeya alberich

Word Count: 730

A/N: Written on: April 2, 2021 

Feels a bit ooc because I cant get the sweet spot of his teasing but writing this made my heart JUMP so that’s good enough for me to post it LMAO kaeya hand in marriage challenge thanks 

───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────

The Cavalry Captain was always a tease. It wasn’t always with bad intentions or to cause a reaction from them, but more often than not, to their dismay, it was. This was one of those instances where they felt it was a grey area; Kaeya was hard to read in general, and even harder to read if he’s being genuine or bluffing. His honeyed words and sly smile caused (Y/n) to squint at him, brushing off the hand he had on their shoulder. 

“Come on now, (Y/n), don’t be shy.” 

“I’m not being shy, and I’m not giving you anything to hold against me.” 

“Hold against you? Now, why would I do that?” 

“You aren’t fooling anyone, Kaeya.” They looked out towards the town, leaning on their arms against the railing in front of them. “I can see right through you. Everything you do makes sure you have something to gain from it.” 

“Is that right?”  

“Don’t be so smug, you know it’s right.” 

“Oh, how you wound me so.” He joined them on leaning against the railing on one elbow, his cheek resting upon the back of his hand.  

(Y/n) ignored his comment and continued looking over the town in front of them. Bundles of people had bustled in front of the taverns and a few stragglers were making their way to or from the same places. The lights around were soft, faint, just a calm flicker only shadowed by the rogue dandelion seed among the equally as soft breeze. It was a quiet night, with not much to do, so they wondered why Kaeya was even bothering to... well, bother them. What did he want? Just to tease them? To annoy them?  

They started to bite the inside of their cheek, involuntarily growing warm under the periwinkle stare that focused on every little move of theirs. With an exasperated sigh and eyebrows laced together, they closed their eyes to avoid the look they knew he would give them. 

“Stop smiling at me like that.” 

“Hm?” 

“If you keep smiling at me like that... nevermind.” 

“Oh no, (Y/n),” Kaeya leaned in closer towards them, his smile now turning to a smirk, “please, continue. What will happen?” 

(Y/n) shook their head, opening their eyes only to shoot him a sideways glare. They ignored the fact he had slowly started to move closer to them, and figured he was still just trying to get a rise out of them. They stuck their lip out in a pout, huffing at the realization that he’d simply keep bugging them, which was normally unlike the man to do so. Why was he so invested in this exchange of theirs? They turned their face to him, ready to give him some half-assed answer—a taste of his own medicine—but stopped short once their eyes met the longing expression in his. 

The air between them felt still, though his eye flickered between theirs and their lips. (Y/n) was dumbstruck, unsure of what their next move should be. Their heart was racing and they were positive he could hear it with just how close he had been. Kaeya looked genuine, for once, and very vulnerable compared to his normal stature. Mindlessly, his tongue flicked over his own lips before his very faint voice filled the air. 

“Show me what will happen.” 

Without a second thought, (Y/n) closed the gap between them, turning his at first gentle kiss into something with more power, more desperation behind it. They could feel him smile during it, and practically feel the chuckle he held back. Kaeya kept his kiss gentle, moving to rest his hand at the base of their head to keep them with him. They took a moment to simply look at each other once they parted; (Y/n) felt a rush of emotions as the corners of his lips turned up to his signature smirk. With one hand still holding their head, the other moved to hold the small of their back and bring them flush against him. They could feel that they were in for a long night of teasing as the words left his mouth, and simply sighed in resignation at the fact that they had fallen for the man. 

“You're right, I do make sure I have something to gain.” His smirk fell once again to a genuine smile, “I guess this time, it’s you.”

a concept:

tattoo artist kaeya having a thing for u, his regular client rosaria's cute little roommate, who is the exact opposite of her. he feels bad for touching himself to the thoughts of u but he can't help himself bc he likes u so much

❝ INKED SECRETS ❞ + KAEYA ALBERICH !

+. CWs —» tattoo artist au + modern au, f!reader, fluff, light angst with comfort, some canon elements, love at first sight, mention of cigarette smoking, bad relationships, hookups, stranger to lovers, smut ( fantasies, m-mastarbation ) ; word count — 2k.

+. NOTES —» thanks to my beloved yoru ( @anantaru) for helping me and beta reading this otherwise i would've opened the gates of kaeya-brainrot; also, thank you for being patient. This ask was almost a month old and I know this was supposed to be short but the thing is kaeya is the one who had me invested in genshin impact. However, surprisingly I've never thought of writing about him so thank you for your muse. I loved writing this so fucking much. Thank you. Tattoo artist kaeya shall live forever in my mind. If you wanna check more of my writings, click here.

Kaeya Alberich. The name of the mystery man who would always be the talk of the topic for Rosaria. He was more familiar to you than your roommate ever was. You two shared a room yet you could never read Rosaria but she was thorough with you; maybe that is why you two clicked. Every one of your friends considered it a mystery how a sunflower like you would ever survive in the company of a moon. Everyone including Kaeya. He had his own proportion of confusion every time Rosaria talked about you. 

Kaeya knew how you looked, talked, and liked to eat ice cream in winter. Not only that, your favorite colors, bits and pieces of your small dreams were known to him. And all because Rosaria wouldn’t stop with the constant blabbering about you whenever he directly hung out with her, emphasizing the fact that you were nothing but an angel in disguise. Kaeya had to endure all of it, every bit of you that Rosaria seemed to find alluring. At moments like this, one could say that they exchanged personas since Kaeya was a guy of smiles and chitter-chatter while Rosaria was quite the opposite.

True, the friendship between Kaeya and Rosaria was another talk of Mondstadt’s inhabitants, but they both did not seem to react as people expected, as people thought they should. You would, barely, call them lovers. While Kaeya enjoyed different takes of his customers about Rosaria, she, on the other hand, brushed those petty rumors off, with just a glance keeping her stoic persona. 

But, among all these happenings, Rosaria had the front-row seat of the chaos that was about to unfold. She had her beauty salon just above Kaeya’s tattoo parlor. They have been working together for at least five years. Rosaria had her shop on rental and the five-storied complex was owned by none other than Kaeya Alberich himself. 

Anyone who wanted to go to her parlor had to cross Kaeya’s floor; hence, no one slipped past the grip of his galactic eyes. He knew the regulars of her shop and had an immense influence on them. He believed it was his charms while Rosaria begged to differ.

But she was just being professional, clearing non-financial tabs that she owed to him, for bringing the immense influx of customers to her salon. Sometimes, it worked both ways, but whenever they fought, the elders of the locality had more spice to flavor the rumors that had just started sedimenting.

January, the prime of winter, of snow and the freezing cold, Kaeya laid his first glance at you. Warm and alluring: you were every bit of beauty that Rosaria spoke of, in fact, now that he had finally seen you in person, he thinks Rosaria fell short of speaking of your angelic aura. 

“Hello, I have a parcel for Rosaria, could you please deliver it to her? I would have done it myself if I wasn’t in such a hurry.”, you kept the package on my desk, “Thank you very much, Mister . . .”, you looked at his batch that reads Kaeya Alberich, “. . . Thank you so much, Mister Kaeya Alberich.” And before Kaeya could say anything back, you fled out of his sight like a bird.

He watched you get into a cab holding the package in his hand, barely registering what you asked him to do. His mind had drifted far off to all those times when Rosaria was talking about you. He checked his watch and smiled to himself. Oops! Rosaria’s smoke break was ruined since he joined in with the package you had left for her, with many questions.

For a tattoo artist, Kaeya seemed the least bit invested in its antics, yet he had a steady influx of customers, mostly because he is very professional and dedicated to his livelihood. He pays special attention to his regular customers, sadly, you weren’t one of them, not yet.

Still, he would stand and smoke at the corner of the entrance so that he could watch you go like the wind to meet your roommate with a package in hand. He would notice the color of your dress, the matching nails, shoes, and every little detail thinking how flawlessly sexy you looked. 

But he abruptly stopped the second he had bruised his fingers with the cigarette burn. Fortunately, it was his left hand but with his line of work, he needed both. 

Today, during the lunch break when Rosaria told him that y/n wanted to have a tattoo, his blood rushed to his cheeks and ears. He did not think you’d be interested in tattoos or piercings. He definitely did not see the next blow coming. “Yep. sure.”, he supplied, coughing back the lump in his throat. Of all the parlors you could choose you had to choose his. What in the lord’s fuck was going on?

The day came faster, faster than he had anticipated. Needless to say, it did not go like he thought it would. It was safe to say he was more nervous than you were. “Are you sure about this?”, “Ya’know it’s gonna hurt, right?”, “Should I use some anesthetic on the area?” His questions wouldn’t stop and you were trying your best to stay as patient as possible It is true, part of him was nervous but another wanted to spend and enjoy some time with you.

“And done!”, Kaeya playfully mused as he wiped over the work of ink, careful enough not to accidentally graze his fingers over your inner thigh but of course, he did want to.“y/n” he spoke, his tone low but clear enough for you to hear, “so, how many tattoos do you have now?” Kaeya shifted in his chair as he intently watched you normalize your heightened breathing

“Didn’t you keep count?”, 

“nine”, he said, letting out a breathless laugh. “which means you dumped your ninth partner.” and he was not wrong. Of all the regular customers he had, you were his favorite because you had an amusing story to tell whenever you had visited his parlor. He would listen to you the moment he was finished with his handiwork.

But this one in particular, was quite a different story. You never told nor was he allowed to ask about the guy you dumped, ever. Part of him wanted to console you, and tell you that good things take time but another part of him was too afraid to lose you, realizing it was unprofessional of him to offer any form of painkiller against a situation like that. Because on any other occasion, his usual customers weren’t as chatty as you were. 

He never thought of a case where it might be the opposite. With that, he thought that you, of all people, being dumped by someone was utterly ridiculous, because who wouldn't want to date someone like you? He knows he would, after all, and if he could, he would make sure the ninth tattoo is to be the last tattoo on your body.

“What about you?”, you asked, swinging your legs in the air while sitting on the bed. “For a tattoo artist, you are awfully blank.” 

“It’s somewhere. . .”, he started, “wait I’ll rather show you . . .”. and when you, in a sliding second, unexpectedly flashed him, his hands immediately found their way crawling at the hem of his turtle-neck.

“Wait. wait. Wait. stop. Just stop.” kaeya panicked as you partly opened your eyes. He crossed his arms over his chest while your eyebrows jumped and stayed intact for seconds. Pin-drop silence and then both of you simultaneously laughed. Some might think it’s corny, and maybe you did as well but it doesn’t matter, what matters is that you were smiling right now. 

That’s good. That’s really good. 

Kaeya checked his watch as you left his place to run upstairs, checking to see if Rosaria was done with her chores; after all, she was almost approaching the closing hour of her shop so she should’ve been done by the time you had arrived at her place. Fifteen minutes, fifteen minutes before you and Rosaria would come out of the elevator to go home;  maybe he could if he’d finally stop thinking about it in such an unhealthy calculative manner.

Yet, well, there was just one problem. His ears felt hot, his mind was restless and he couldn't focus on a single task. Generally, it took ten minutes to close his shop and he does it every day, all alone so if not his mind, his muscle memory should be functioning properly. But all he desired to do was to touch himself and relieve himself from the agony of months boiling in his core.

June, the prime time of summer and ice cream. Kaeya slides his right arm under his vest while grazing his lower belly, eagerly thinking of the last time, but eventually, his arm ends up slipping into his pants, his fingers clamping around his length, and finally, a soft groan escapes from his mouth. The tip of his tongue kisses the corner of his lips as he takes out his cock which was coated with warm white fluid, at the tip pre-cum.

For a moment, he is surprised, and then he suddenly is not. There is a crescent formed along his lips as he taps the tip of his cock, smearing the reddened end with its pre. “Oh fuck. This feels so much better.”, he groans, mumbling to himself, thinking why he didn’t do this way sooner.

He palms his member, a little harder, this time trying to imagine how it would feel to be sheathed by your gummy walls. He started to pump his cock as his pants slipped, now clustered at the bottom of the chair while his legs were trying to give as much space as possible by spreading them further apart.

With half-lidded eyes, he checks if you had locked the door before leaving or not. You did not and the thought of you walking onto him turned him so bad that he thought he might cum right away.

The moment he closes his eyes he could see you, your calloused fingers around his cock and now he is pumping his cock rashly, the hem of his vest being buried in between his teeth, muffled moans escaping his mouth as the squelching noises had gotten louder and louder.

His other hand gradually made its way towards his nipples, pinching and circling around them thinking of your lips instead. “Oh fuck.”, he hisses as his toes curl, his hips bucked up with a force as he thinks of how euphoric it would be to have your soft lips wrapped around his cock, to have your puffy lips on his, to have your boobs tightly pressed against his bare chest, pronounced nipples grazing against each other while Kaeya’s cock is hitting your sweet spot with precision, blessing his ears with the prettiest desperate moans from you.

He squeezes his eyes shut as his hands move up and down his swollen cock, hitting his girth with calculated thrusts. He paces up as he feels his orgasm approaching, huffing and panting, not caring how vocal he has become until the coil at the core of his flat belly snaps, making him dizzy, his hand movements sloppy, and his inner thighs gradually closing, relishing in the high he had just experienced.

Kaeya’s chest rises up and down frantically as he finally opens his eyes, watching the spurs of milky white fluid all over the floor and his study desk. A heavy sigh leaves his body as his breathing normalizes. “Fuck . . .”, he mumbles throwing back his head before closing his eyes and thinking of you, again. He takes a few deep breaths to relax before cleaning the mess.

Yet, when he suddenly heard the footsteps, his heart sank. He regrets touching himself while thinking of you, he regrets not saving himself for you, he regrets chasing love so fast, so insanely that he almost lost his hope for finding the one. 

“Hey Kae-ya, you done?”, you asked, opening the door, “Rosa is gonna be late today. So, I’ll stay and help her. I’m going out to buy some food, you wanna come with me?” You let your exhausted body lean against the door frame while Kaeya remained silent. 

It just made him crazy how blatantly you ignored him, his magnetic affection for you, and the truth was, he cannot even blame you for that. He has always enjoyed this feeling, to like you in secrecy. The more you are unaware of his emotions, the greater chance he has to be around you. Kaeya does not ask for much, just a few more days till he musters up enough courage to finally ask you out.

So I'm reading a Fatui!Heizou fanfic and I wonder...

So in this fanfic, Kujou Takayuki sets up a meeting with Heizou, as Heizou ate the drugged food (Make him sleepy slowly) because Heizou might ruin everything he build for with his investigation skills.

Heizou is also having doubts about the Vision Hunt Decree and reach a conclusion that Takayuki is behind this, asking Yae to tell Sayu grab the documents and deliver them to Sara if he doesn't come back after 2 days. Because if he reject the invitation, it would be arrogant since it was made known to the public back at HQ.

So before he could run away, La Signora froze him and he was eventually brainwashed to work under the Fatui.

But I'm thinking like, sure he prefers doing things his way so he's always absent but after manage to escape barely from the Fatui and Takayuki, he's living on thin ice. Of course he'll always be absent.

Even after the decree was lifted, he could feel eyes following him. And after catch a glimpse of Dottore (Idk, I think Dottore would need a lab rat and since Heizou was on the run, he'll hunt Heizou, I guess?), it gave him nightmares.

Idk how he would handle the situation but what would the club do when they discover this information?

And fatui be damned because his lover or bestie (Kazuha or Kaeya, up to you) is going batshit insane. Ain't no way they'll let the Fatui take their precious person again.

So here is that thing about the Club.

It's Diluc being a big brother again, pretty much (don't worry that the actual birth order is Yanfei Cyno Diluc Heizou). And him learning those bastards have yet again hurt someone he cares about. It would take both everything the other three have to keep him back from another world murder tour.

But Diluc alone would make sure Heizou felt safe and protected. Yanfei and Cyno would do the same, but they would just have to focus a little on keeping Diluc under control. Which is a task. And they would also protect anyone Heizou wanted to protect.

Now let's just look at the power scaling for a second and what the fatui would be up against here.

Diluc, the guy in his early 20s who is already banned from their country. Has had a vision since he was a kid. Can just shoot fire out of his hand. Is on the abyss order hit list. And oh yeah Alice, the Alice said she'd take him under her wing.

Cyno, The General Mahamatra, possed by the power of Hermanubis a guy know as the "Greatest of sages"  

Yanfei, a half Adeptus. WHO HAS NO CONTRACT WITH REX LAPIS. Thus! She has no heed to him and any contract he might have made. And she might not be the strongest among them. But she makes up for in pure knowledge of the law. And you can't tell me she could find loop hoops and arguments to get the Fatui in legal trouble with their own law.

And finally, Heizou. The number one detective in the Tenryou Commission. The guy who went weaponless in a martial arts contest and won. And he impresses Kujio Sara with his abilities.

And the only thing that keeps these 4 in line is their strong sense of justice. And oh boy.

It's not looking good for the Fatui, who are at the very least, morally dubious. And I don't think that would fly.

Yandere Albedo x reader

Just a little bit of Yan! Albedo based off of a pov I wrote before. The reader in gender neutral and I don't condone yandere behaviour.

You and Albedo first met in the tavern. The Knights of Favonius were having a celebration in the tavern and you being the honorary Knight, attended as well. Kaeya and Amber were playing darts, Kaeya drunker than Amber, with Diluc keeping a close eye on Kaeya. Jean was sitting down beside Lisa sipping drinks. But the Chief Alchemist had no one accompanying him, until you went up to him.

Your face had slightly gone red, your tolerance wasn't the best, although it wasn't the worst either. You saw the other Knights among eachother and began to wander. That's when you saw him, a guy with white hair and blue eyes, sitting down and holding a glass in his gloved hands. You the recalled Timeus mentioning someone who fit a similar description. With a little more confidence than usual, because of the drinks, you approached him. He turned around, his blue eyes staring into yours for a second. He broke the silence by asking you, "Are you the honorary knight?"

You told him that you were and from then you to were talking while occasionally sipping your drinks. You were slowly becoming more drunk but you realised that you had never caught this young man's name. "I am Albedo, Chief Alchemist of the Knights of Favonius." Just before your drunken state knocked you out, you and Albedo were talking about Alchemy. You swore that you saw him smile at the mentions of you knowing about it. Alas, soon the drinks got to you and you passed out. Albedo admired your sleeping expression and gently brushed the hair of your forehead. He then removed his gloves and cupped your cheek, with the same gentle touch, and thought to himself, "They carry the aura of the stars, interesting..." Albedo smiled, this time in an obsessive manner. He wished that he had his sketchbook to capture every beautiful feature of your face while sleeping.

You began seeing Albedo way more as a result, whether by your own will or 'coincidence'. Albedo was such a trustworthy, gentle and kind person though, in your eyes. In Albedo's mind you were the most perfect thing that has ever happened to him.

His master told him to find 'the truth of this world' but you, his dear traveler, were way more important. He wanted to have you for the rest of eternity but everyone was always in the way. Even when he subtlety glared at them they always came back. So he began taking out more often to test some experiments with him. You were always so willing, which only made him fall for you even more. One potion he got you to try sent you to sleep for hours. Albedo made sure to capture every detail this time in his new sketchbook entirely dedicated to you.

Albedo was going to be patient and wait until the perfect time to take you, but an almost identical force was going to stop him.

"Traveler would you like to join me in Dragonspine?"

You agreed and the two of you set off to Dragonspine, where another person's eyes would be on you. Albedo could sense his presence but he couldn't care less about him right now, you were all that mattered.

After a long day of conducting experiments and research in the snowy mountain, you and Albedo went to sleep. Albedo hugged you tightly in your sleep, making sure to savour every moment and every feeling, unaware that someone had snuck into his camp and this time... He wasn't just there for alchemy notes.

Hope you enjoyed this and apologies for the lack of understanding, cause I still don't really know how to use Tumblr °^°

“What Genshin Vision or element would my boys in La Squadra have?”

I wanted to intertwine my favorite topics, Genshin and JJBA, and do some writing because I've been procrastinating on writing for months. I'm still clinging to JoJo, I don't wanna be a ✨️Genshin Girlie✨️, but it's probably too late.

I focused on the representation of the element rather than the reason visions are given out, to help wielders with their ambitions because we already know La Squadra’s ambition: overthrow Diavolo and gain control over the drug trade in the underworld of Italy.

⚠️TW: mentions of death and drugs, JJBA pt 5 is mafia/gangster themed after all⚠️

*ﾟ ﾟ･ ✧.｡. *. • ･ ✧.｡. *. • ･ ✧.｡. *. • ･ ✧.｡. *.

Risotto Nero

"Sorry... to also have you shoulder the grievances of the world."

"Since you could endure my bitter cold, you must have the desire to burn?"

"Then, burn away the old world for me." - Shivada Jade Gemstone

Risotto would have cryo. Periodt. Can't convince me otherwise. Cryo is the element of loss, whether that be of someone the wielder loved or the loss of oneself. Risotto is the only member of La Squadra with concrete/canon backstory. At the age of fourteen, he lost his cousin to a hit-and-run by a drunk driver, who in Risotto’s eyes got a light punishment. Subsequently, sending him into life in the underworld.

The man spent four years planning and monitoring the driver’s life to assassinate them. Like… Bro, why you spend four years to do it? You could have just stabby stabbed the man in the middle of the night and snuck out the window. Risotto didn’t have or wouldn’t have needed his Stand for this. Were you waiting for the original case to blow away?¿

Cryo characters in Genshin Impact also tend to wear a mask. Example characters being Kaeya of Mondstat and Ayaka of Inazuma, who don teasing, friendly, or even cheerful personalities, but are quite lonely and have lost their family members. In Risotto’s case, he wears a “mask of sanity,” as the leader, it falls on him to keep everyone from falling apart even though he is also in turmoil. Upon first introduction, whether in the anime or manga, he has the demeanor of the cold, calculating, and serious leader of La Squadra. Sane, but how so? An average person would grieve their loss and move on, but Risotto never did. He also lost Sorbet and Gelato, members of his squad. La Squadra waited two years to overthrow Diavolo. In Risotto's final fight, his mask broke and he relished the thought of Diavolo’s suffering with a malicious grin. Okay, I'm rambling now...

Other options I see for Risotto are Geo or Hydro. Geo is an option because, “iron and earth, they must be compatible, right?"/s But also, geo is the element that represents pride, hard-work, and longevity. Hydro represents justice, pride, and laws, respectively.

Pesci

"My ideals have no stains."

"I must correct you. People here bear no sins in the eyes of the gods... Only laws and the Tribunal can judge someone."

"They can judge even me. So, praise my magnificence and purity." - Varunada Lazurite Gemstone

I actually had a hard time placing Pesci, but in the end, I gave him the most flexible element not based on personality or deeper meaning, but its use in Genshin Impact. Hydro is a conductor that reacts with each element and amplifies damage. Pesci is the newest member of La Squadra and the one still training with Prosciutto. The consensus for hydro among the Genshin fandom is that it is the vision for the hard workers who feel like they are never enough. Pesci is the member of La Squadra that is still being molded and has boundless potential, much like hydro.

Reaction? Pffft. Dendro? Add some hydro and make dendro cores that go BOOM. (More like POOF, but it still causes damage.) Pyro? Hydro can extinguish it, but it also vaporizes causing damage. Think of it like scalding water. Anemo? Anemo swirls with hydro to create a mini whirlpool. Electro? Water conducts electricity to cause more damage. Cryo? Apply hydro and freeze everyone. Geo? . . .Geo doesn’t work well with anything. 💀💀 It just makes a feeble shield and it doesn’t even last long or block any other element besides the one it reacted with.

If we need to view Pesci having a hydro vision from an ideological standpoint, the god or Archon of hydro represents “justice.” In Pesci’s final moments, he wanted to not only complete the assignment, but also wanted justice (more like vengeance) by eradicating Bucciarati and the Bucci Gang for mutilating Prosciutto. Another option from the view of functionality would have been anemo, but anemo doesn’t react with Dendro and is thus not as flexible.

Formaggio

"Still, the winds change direction."

"Someday, they will blow towards a brighter future..."

"Take my blessings and live leisurely from this day onward." - Vayuda Turquoise Gemstone

Formaggio was easy to place out of everyone. Even though Formaggio and Little Feet are also as flexible as Pesci making hydro a good option, I decided on anemo the wind or air element for the ideal of “freedom.” In Formaggio’s case, it is the freedom from working under Diavolo or the freedom from the trauma of losing his comrades. La Squadra sought money and power or essentially an escape from their ostracization within Passione and Formaggio was the one that exclaimed this the most in his fight with Narancia. “I’m talking about taking down the Boss and claiming a drug trade worth tens of billions. . . There’s no turning back for me and mine now.” (JJBA: part 5, v. 3, chp. 36) Formaggio’s exclamation that they want money and power, the result of gaining said power: he and the rest of La Squadra are free from being attack dogs on a tight leash.

Looking at any of the characters from Genshin Impact, most anemo users seek freedom from something that has happened in their past or grief from losing someone, but unlike cryo, they’re coping. Cryo is the element for loss and grief, but so is anemo. I'm staring at you, Kazuha... Unlike cryo though, anemo got their nails done. They pulled themselves together. Cryo characters… still have problems to sort through. The anemo squad is doing Gucci. They understand themselves enough to cope. 💅

Ghiaccio

"A pilgrimage for a wish; a battle to earn a name..."

"Burnt to cinders for a dream."

"If the intention yet remains, achieved ____'s truth he has." - Agnidus Agate Gemstone

“Why dIdn’T GhiAcCIo GeT cRYo,” because he’s not a sad-goth-jester boy, like Risotto.

Pyro is essentially the powerhouse of Genshin Impact that causes damage to enemies and allies. Ghiaccio is very much the powerhouse of La Squadra with White Album being the most combat ready Stand and his analytical prowess. You could say Ghiaccio’s temperament and combat ability make him ready for war, which is the divine ideal of the archon. Murata also known as the “God of War.”

Aside from that, the consensus for pyro is that it represents those with a specific passion and determination. In Ghiaccio’s case, he’s very confident in himself and his abilities as an assassin. He wants to prove that to everyone and anyone who will hear him. There’s not much La Squadra can lay claim to, territory, drug trade, or even being the only assassins within Passione if you take into consideration Unità Speciale and characters in Purple Haze Feedback. Ghiaccio exclaims what everyone in the group is thinking, making it seem like he's the most proud and passionate of the group, a trait shared among most pyro units in the game.

Illuso & Melone

"This body is the noblest and most eminent of all in this world."

"It should hold absolute control over this world"

"It once promised its people a dream: the never-changing 'eternity.'" - Vajrada Amethyst Gemstone

These two are weirdos and freaks (/affectionate), and they know it. Never mind that electro’s archon represents “eternity.” Electro is the element for the individualistic, those with unique outlooks on life, or simply the outcasts. Illuso is also just… a complicated individual.

In Illuso’s case, he’s normally portrayed as an escapist. Always hiding in the mirror world and only feeling confident while there. Raiden Ei even created a puppet body that works autonomously while she hides her consciousness in a different plain of existence. Illuso is confident yet self-conscientious. Composed, until his plans fall apart and he’s sent into panic. He lacks empathy for others but will cry and beg for mercy on death’s door.

Melone is La Squadra’s token mad scientist, even seen as “gross” by his own peers. I’m never letting that foot fetish scene go, anime only or not. I also consider Dendro a good choice for Melone due to his mad scientist motif and pursuit of information when producing the “perfect Junior.” But I’ll stick with electro for him.

Prosciutto

“The currencies that flow through this land are my flesh and blood."

"For thus did I become the guarantor of the people's hard work, wisdom, and future."

"This is the trust I have placed in them. Betray it, and you taint my blood.” - Prithiva Topaz Gemstone

I only had to think of this placement for about a minute. The old man of the Seven Archons is the god of geo. So, why not give geo to this old man (who’s probably barely in early thirties, but he likes to be a stiff about it)?/rh You can also say Prosciutto is the proudest member of La Squadra due to his strict code of conduct, making pyro his best suited vision, but Prosciutto is basically the prime example of what you’d consider traditional. He upholds rules and ideals befitting an assassin of La Squadra Esecuzioni and he sees his assignments through to the very end. You could say he upholds his contracts, that which Rex Lapis represents.

Prosciutto, much like Rex Lapis did to his citizens in the game, placed his faith in Pesci. He would have been the product of Prosciutto’s wisdom and hard work, a legacy in a sense, should both have survived the events of Vento Aureo.

Also, like I said, geo doesn’t work well with anything. Its effect is called “crystallize,” which deals no damage, but it creates a shield of the corresponding element it came from. Prosciutto and Grateful Dead would kill their allies faster than they would fulfill their assignment if it were not for a supply of ice to keep their allies from aging.

Another element I see for Prosciutto is hydro for the same reason I would have given it to Risotto.

──────⊹⊱✫⊰⊹─────

Honorary Mention

Giorno Giovanna

This one is too easy. Never mind that dendro and Gold Experience giving the ability of literal plant growth, dendro is the vision that represents knowledge and wisdom. For a fifteen-year-old boy who has gone through neglect and abuse, Giorno had to learn how to adapt to others' emotions and grow up fast.

═════ஓ๑☆๑ஓ═════

The main reason I didn’t give Melone dendro was Nahida’s comment on Kaveh, “He has an almost-perfect grasp of what it truly means for Sumeru to be a Nation of Wisdom. Sadly, the truth as he understands it will never be accepted as the mainstream…” Someone as idealistic and determined as Giorno, who strives for both power and the betterment of the future, is more suited to have a dendro vision over Melone.

I forgot why I started thinking about this topic, but trying to remember, it might have had to do with the Tsaritsa and how she was known as the "Archon of Love" before the Cataclysm. Like, "what do visions really represent," because all vision users have ambitions or else they wouldn't have gotten one. Since I'm not focused on the individual, I focused on the element itself.

Thx for stopping by.

I guess.

My Thoughts on Genshin Characters

Albedo

These will be broken up into thirds to help organize my thought process of: my general all around thoughts, what kind of relationship I would have with them if I was in the gi universe, and what I think of their character stories and background

My general scrambled thoughts

I didn't really care for Albedo tbh

He wasn't bad and I didn't dislike him he was just kind of meh?

But then I found out he was essentially a homunculus and adores Klee.

Like sure, you're so stoic and only care about research and yet you have all but adopted this arsonistic child (affectionately)

As well as his search for knowledge. I personally really understand this because I always have needed to learn about everything around me

I always felt on the outside of society and still do.

I wanted to pick peoples brains apart figuratively and literally

I always wanted to learn about nature and animals and still do

But I feel like him and I would get along in this sense that we both share this intense need for knowledge

And he only learns about things that interest him as well, I hate being forced to learn something I care nothing about and will promptly forget when it is no longer of use

I just think it would be neat to learn about some animals or plant species together

He's also an artist! I used to make art all the time but have since lost my passion for it

If I were in the genshin universe I would love to hang out with him. I feel like his main love language would be differing quality time. Like you're in the same area but aren't doing the same thing and just sharing space and everyone once in awhile looking over and asking "how's it going?" And no need for much more conversation

Or we would both be losing our minds over some new found species and we will not shut up about it, no inbetween

Also of I were in the genshin universe, all Characters under 20 would immediately become my children in some form or another whether I just visit and bring presents and spend a lil time before I'm off or they travel with me, they are all my kids.

And Albedo likes kids more than adults and I feel like it's because they don't see him as anything less than a person or don't hold these ridiculous expectations of him and expect him to be this genius all the time either

He's not stone cold tho, he has friends but I feel he has the same worries I do and that's they will leave eventually because we can't give them what they want so we keep ourselves away

He's said that he thinks keeping up friendships with adults is tiresome and yeah, it really is

But I do think it shows a very strong sense of maturity and wisdom that he has some friends in Mondstadt

Even if they don't know him super personally they are there, such as Kaeya and Jean, and they've expressed many times that they'll be there for him whenever he's ready to open up

I think something else that I admire about him aswell is that he's not super cranky or rude to people

Alot of people who have a lot of knowledge tend to forget that others do not know all of these things they know and look down on them bc they forget that they were once there too and lacked this knowledge

Albedo doesn't do that

He balances on a tightrope of secrecy, high intelligence, and never ending kindness. All of his dealings and interactions with other folks are in earnest. Which I respect him for bc I have a hard time being nice to people on certain topics bc I feel it should be common sense or blah blah blah blah

But ya know he never hesitates to lend a hand when someone needs it or asks for it bc he has the mindset of "I have you need it here ya go"

And he's so kind to his assistants Sucrose and Timaeus too

Not only that but alchemy is considered an ancient practice!! That must have been so hard and grueling for him to accomplish! As well as it's been stated that he has knowledge that not even scholars at the akademiya in Sumeru have

And he has such and important job among the ranks of the The Knights of Favonius as well

Just all around mad respect for the man honestly he's everything I want to be in life

In Universe Relationship

If I were just like Aether, Lumine, or Aloy and was a traveler from another world I feel we would get along and be pretty good friends

I would love to bring him pictures whether sketches I've made or actual Polaroid type photographs of me and the kid's adventures in the other lands of teyvat whenever we come back to visit Mondstadt.

I would love to go up into the mountains and ask about any of his findings while we were away and tell him about our adventures. Spend like a week at his research facility with him catching up.

He would be great with the kids too. He would be so helpful

The first kid I adopted was Razor (ill write about that later) and Albedo would be so understanding that Razor can't speak very good English yet and would help him out whenever we're around. And Albedo likes to look at the interactions of people around him so he would have a plethora of knowledge on how to act around people and I bet he would even make a book especially for Razor that has some social stuff in it.

Diona was the second and he would be so understanding of her views but I think he would help her break out of them, such as all people who drink are bad and how awful Mondstadt is for allowing her life to be this way. He would effortlessly help me help her with her anger at Mondstadt and shift it to determination do make her life better. She would no longer be a victim.

Of course Klee and how endearing he acts towards her and her destructive tendencies.

Albedo would be good with Bennett as well and probably ask Bennett to like heat up something for an experiment and help Bennett maybe learn to relax and trust himself that he can in fact control his Pyro vision.

Barbara would be great as well I think learning about so many new things would open up her mind GREATLY and she would probably end up pursuing a life of like science or healing outside of the church in some way and not be brainwashed into the Cult that the church in Mondstadt very obviously is. It would probably spark an interest for her to join us in traveling and learning about all the different things in the world .

Albedo would also be really good at listening to the kids when they talk about something exciting that happened while we were gone and be very kind in explaining anything to them that they wanted to learn about. I feel like he would be a great teacher.

I would also love to learn from him and hear him talk and explain things as well. I really look up to him so it would be very much of a mentor/mentee relationship but I'm like an old student of his that's grown up and we are on more equal terms ya know.

He sees me as like and adult and treats me like one and we're good freinds but he never stops teaching me

I also headcanon him as aromantic, he just never really thinks of romance and just thinks of caring about people and helping them out in general and having a general love for life and all the forms it takes

Character Story

What we know of his character so far is pretty neat actually.

So far he is the only non-organic person in genshin kinda???

He was made in a lab, he was a test tube baby so to speak ya know and I think that the fact that he is as emotionally intelligent as he is is amazing as well

He knows how to handle his emotions and how to take care of himself and what kind of relationships he can have with people and how many before he starts getting burnt out.

He also has ancient knowledge that no one else has and that's pretty neat.

I also like that the devs didn't go the route of him having no emotions at all and making him hateful and rude. I really like that they decided to make him so compassionate

[reginrokkr]

Throwing here some bullet points of what little interactions Dain can have with different characters that have been fermenting in my mind for a long time because thoughts be loud™ and I have to get them out one day.

✦ Dain finding out that a very young Kaeya is in Mondstadt now and not precisely with an Alberich. So while his stay in Mondstadt continues, he watches over him from afar and he realizes that at night he has small escapes to chase some Abyss Mage. This in turn makes Dain want to keep him far from them and he takes on the role to offer him the answers he would otherwise seek from the Abyss Mages as to not run the risk to be manipulated or be sought out by these to take him away. All information he provides him with is adapted to a kid and he's warned to not let those mages influence him or make him go with them anymore, for his safety.

✧ Money and precious intel are matters that not even Dain is immune to not have, so having a small network is a must to him. Ragnvindr for Mondstadt and the Kamisato clan for Inazuma, every time he needs he will make business with them to increase his capital but also to share information he can make use for in a mutually beneficial relationship.

✦ Tensions arise every time Dain and Zhongli cross paths in Liyue, but they never escalate in a hostile manner. Sometimes they feign the other isn't there, other times they will engage into deep conversations. In one of these, Dain throws the seed of doubt on him as to whether it is truly necessary to have a god rule the lives of mortals these days and if his answer is no, that perhaps human should be allowed to take care of their own matters.

✧ 500 years ago the Sacred Sakura was about to wither and with it Inazuma would be even more exposed to dangers, specially in the context of the Cataclysm. Ei was witness of Dain being the one performing its cleansing and, while shaken from the recognition that he has the star-shaped pupils as Khaenri'ahns have, she acknowledges his noble deed. From then onwards, every time she is informed by Yae that he's returned to attend the matters of the Sacred Sakura, she poses no resistance. Only should he show signs of scheming against Inazuma would she interfere in a hostile manner.

✦ Besides having low-profile relationships with the Ragnvindr House and the Kamisato clan of which even descendants are aware of, Dain also has ties with the Sangonomiya clan as a means to have a legit way to descend to Enkanomiya whenever he needs it. It would be more alarming if he were to present himself there out of nowhere than if he requests the priestesses' permission. Since the first time he retrieved the necessary item to perform the festival and so the soil wouldn't become infertile, he's known as the blond-haired hero that even nowadays is known of among the priesthood in the island.

✧ Dottore is the reason why Dain started to keep a close eye on the Fatui, being himself a low-profile attendant in the Akademiya for other purposes. This lead eventually took him to find out that Pierro is part of this organization, whom he knows from the old Khaenri'ahn days. Ever since, while he doesn't act directly, he keeps an eye on them every time he has the chance to do so.

✦ In the context of the Cataclysm, Dain partook in the war waged in the Chasm. Morax and adepti alike noticed him and the latter acknowledge his noble deed despite the contradiction it could suppose all things considered.

✧ 500 years ago also, when Dain lost all faith even in Irminsul, Greater Lord Rhukkadevata as its avatar became an ephemeral light to him to let him know of the great things he can achieve being the kind and noble man he is— partly to make sure that as per his connection to Irminsul he wouldn't do anything to harm it or the world, but a genuine act of concern for him nonetheless. Dain had an eye-opening conversation in her realm of consciousness during her last moments which, even if it didn't hit him in that same instant, with time he gave it the importance it deserves and it did give him strength to move forward.

[cluescorner]

My theory is that like 1/2 of Mondstadt already knows (or at least the Knights and Dawn Winery). And they don't really care about it, Kaeya is such a sweet boy and it's very clear that he doesn't WANT anything bad to happen to them. He's been with them since he was so little and they have decided that 'yeah this is objectively shady but he's our baby boy and so it's ok'. I especially believe this because I'm like 80% sure Kaeya has some unique Abyssal power or something, ie the teleporting thing, and I doubt he'd be able to keep it under wraps for long.

But Kaeya is clearly insecure about the whole thing! So why would they bring it up when it could hurt Kaeya so badly? Kaeya's origins are an open secret among much of Mondstadt and the only person who DOESN'T know that everybody knows something is weird about Kaeya is Kaeya. And every time he does something that kinda shouldn't be possible or clearly has unique insights into the Abyss Order everyone pretends nothing is wrong.

Kaeya's pupil is weird? How rude! Don't you know some people have strange appearances? There's this thing they're researching in Sumeru called genetic mutations, this is obviously one of those.

Kaeya teleports halfway across the training grounds because he saw someone was about to fall wrong? No he didn't, Kaeya just ran really fast. We all saw his legs clearly hit the ground and he was visible the entire time.

Kaeya's presence is enough to convince some Abyssal entities to just leave during a fight they were already winning? Yeah, of course they did! Everybody knows that the Abyss Mage's weaknesses include the type of gold Kaeya's lucky coin is made of! He's so smart always having that on him.

Kaeya is seen talking to the hilichurls? He's learning hilichurlian for the sake of Ella Musk! How sweet of him, that's just like our Kaeya. Ella, dear, please update the dictionary accordingly.

Kaeya reacts suspiciously similar to Abyss creatures and the hilichurls during the Chasm incident? Oh please, that's far from unique! My cousin's husband's aunt reacted the exact same way. It's totally normal!

Meanwhile Kaeya thinks he's doing really well at this whole 'being a spy thing' despite having given people his REAL FUCKING NAME, but in reality a good portion of Mondstadt at least sorta knows what's going on and the number of people on team 'yes Kaeya is probably someone tied to Khaenri'ah, no we will not talk about it.'

No way people don't know Kaeya is Khaenri'ahn at this point. I'm like 100% certain the devs didn't mean for Kaeya's last name to end up being everywhere, but it is and it's impossible that people don't know.

"Kaeya what?" "Alberich, why?" "...Alberich like the Alberich Clan like the Khaenri'ahn clan Alberich?" "How do you know-?" "How do I-? My man you are high nobility from a highly important fallen nation, how could I not know?"

Kaeya failed at being a spy the moment he said his last name. Literally how is he still alive.

[throwaway-yandere]

Hi! I have my birthday on the anniversary, how do you think the SAGAU characters would react? For some reason I can see an emphasis on remaining Khaenri'ahns like Kaeya clinging onto whatever they can find of those customs, and yeah, apparently celebrating the birth of Teyvat was a big thing over there. (I can also see Ayaka being very happy <3) Have a good day!

YANDERE!SAGAU CHARACTERS CELEBRATING YOUR BIRTHDAY (Hysteric Humanoid)

A/n: Omg happy birthday anon!!! o⁠(*⁠^⁠▽⁠^⁠*⁠)o i hope you have a fantastic day too!!!

I'm not sure if you're referring to the Yan!SAGAU Hysteric Humanoid or not, because most of the cast in HH are pretty violent towards the reader (e.g: Aether nearly killed the reader, Zhongli tried to kidnap them, Rhinedottir manipulated you, etc). It's not a very happy story. People don't revere you. They actively hunt you down. Hence, I'm not sure you got the right author for this haha, I don't exactly write happy endings… I don't want to dump all those things on your birthday ;;----;;;

You deserve a happier response, so I'll be focusing on some of your devotees in the fic (at the time of chapter 1)!

Might be a little spoiler-y but oh well!

----------

Characters: Dainsleif, Abyss! Lumine, Baizhu, Kaeya, Venti, Zhongli, and Kamisato Ayaka.

Before the three of you separated, Dainsleif often tried to do something special for you, and it's almost always practical (I say this because you've traveled with him for centuries, and not once did he give you something extravagant–). He thinks gifts are great as a concept, but it doesn't translate well with reality. Dain thought about fighting bosses for you just to give you a present but then weighed down that leaving you alone was too dangerous. Customs be damned. He believes that your safety is worth more than fleeting happiness. You understand, don't you? Being empty-handed makes him miserable too. Please be content with your scarf for now.

Things are a bit different after Chapter 1. He's a lot more bitter and reserved. Dainsleif is not afraid to act brutal around you if it means proving that he can and will protect you. He doesn't care if you don't approve or if you "hate" him. But the upside to this is that he'll drag you along to get you your present. Just say whatever you desire ("leave" is not an option) and he'll pluck it out of a corpse for you. After that, it's just another day. You're both over 500 years old. And it doesn't help that the Abyss Order is always up to something when it's your birthday.

Lumine, however, believes that "fortune favors the bold". C'mon, it's The Creator's birthday! She'd take any excuse to celebrate (after all, she's secretly down too, you know.) Lumine understands that for some people birthdays are a big deal. While personally, she doesn't like having hers become a big spectacle (she misses her brother), she wants you to be bombarded by her attention. Flowers! Feathers! Anything that catches her eye will surely find its way into your inventory. She'd peck you on your cheek and tell you that you deserve the world– and Lumine will not stop until she gives you just that. After all, she already promised that she'll bring you home someday with her brother too.

As the Princess of the abyss, she honors her word. Everything she does is for the home she wished to share with you. This is why Dainsleif keeps an eye on your birthday– she has a habit of conducting special operations during this time. She's awfully sentimental. If he didn't burn all the letters she left for you, you would've known that her obsession is a lot more terrifying and burdensome than you thought.

Baizhu doesn't know when your birthday is. But he DID help you make a fake birth certificate so he pretends that that's your real birthday (it's not.) On your/Jianfeng's birthday, he sadistically gives you a herb-flavored cake, made only with the bitterest ingredients Qiqi could find. The doctor explains that it helps maintain blood pressure among other health benefits– while he does speak the truth, it doesn't mean he doesn't have any ulterior motives. You know damn well he just wants more blood samples. If you could pass your immortality to Baizhu you would, but he wouldn't accept that. He wants to be immortal with you, and he will not accept any shortcuts.

You met Kaeya when he was 18 years old. I won't say how you met, but you've known each other for around 3-4 years. Kaeya considers himself your friend first and being your acolyte is nothing more than a cute title. He's not knowledgeable about Khaenri'ahn customs regarding birthdays, instead, he'll celebrate it his way… so expect alcohol. Kaeya knows that you hated how pretentious people are when they celebrate The Creator's birth. You couldn't handle all the noise, especially since you're convinced that you're an "impostor". He'd do his best to isolate you from any other "unwanted" attention by taking you somewhere only you both know. The air around Windrise feels nice this evening– he'll help you climb up the branches. You'd join him, right? This is a pretty sentimental place for him. He often hides here whenever he got into a fight with Diluc, you should know by now that he's being vulnerable by inviting you here.

Other than that, there's no doubt that he'd tease you about your age, and subtly remark where his loyalty lies. He knew after observing the Twilight Sword that chivalry remains unpaid despite 500 years of service, but he would still offer his body to whatever plans you wish would befall Teyvat. What is love without a bit of sacrifice, right?

Is it really a surprise that Venti dedicates songs for you on your birthday? Probably not. Especially when he did this more than a hundred times? Probably not. Does he care? Well, you can't tell. Either way, if you spent your birthday in Mondstadt getting dragged along by Kaeya's whims then the bard will find you eventually. Much to the cavalry captain's dismay, the archon would climb up the branches just to sing you a song. Afterward, you'd both try to push him out. Keyword: try. By the end of the day, the three of you would be the drunkest people in Teyvat. He'll end up clinging to your arm, sometimes sticking his tongue out whenever Kaeya makes a disgruntled noise. Venti will make sure to remind him that he's known you longer than him, that Kaeya is just a child in your eyes. They're both absolutely immature. You'll, unfortunately, need Dainsleif to get these two off of you.

Ahhh, Zhongli. Gosh, I wish I could just spoil my plans for him but I'll do my best to answer this without revealing much. He's no God of Stove, but he will serve you food, specifically jade parcels and his specialty dish, slow-cooked bamboo shoot soup. With somber eyes, Morax– not Zhongli– would reminisce the times you've spent together in mindless rambles, even if those memories evade you. He'll feed you kindly, asking if it tastes just like the first day you first met. When he doesn't get the response he desperately craved, he'll take you back to Qingce Village. Please… can't you give him at least one smile? He missed your company.

(I love Ayato but I can't include him here because he does not have faith in the reader. At all.)

Kamisato Ayaka is superstitious. Or at least, something close to that. For the longest time, she believed her mother when she said thunder is nothing more than the Electro Archon's way of communicating. Like everyone else, her sense of self did not exist at birth. A 5-year-old will always see themselves as the main protagonist of their own life– unburdened by social responsibilities and the weight of what will happen to their clan. And when the Kamisato Clan almost crumbled, she put her blind faith in one other person besides her brother.

You.

She firmly believes it was fate that you both share the same birthday and that it made her closer to you than anyone else. In times that she does not trust her confidence, she thinks of you. What would The Creator do if they were in her shoes? What would They have told her? And thankfully it helped.

That's why before she met the traveler, she never once celebrate her birthday– she celebrated yours.

"Happy birthday, Your Grace. I will not forget to glorify all that you have done and will do. Please continue to guide me in another year of living."

[bluexiao]

Hii! I was wondering if you could please do DCKZ x reader. A little similar to the 4nemo if that's ok with you.

—relationship headcanons for dckz (plus bonus manager!ayato)

idols!Diluc, Childe, Kaeya, Zhongli, manager!Ayato; gn! Reader

modern idols!dckz; fluff; calling them “boys” but this does not really affect their age (it’s just me being too used to calling my kpop men as “boys”) 

hi nonnies! i hope this will be to your liking as both reqs are quite vague~ enjoy reading loves!

DILUC

He is known as a silent type idol who would not mind calling out someone if they did something wrong or immoral. It was kind of his charm to his fans. 

Most likely a Chaebol. He is not only famous as an idol but also in the business world. 

Among all the members, he is the one who is seen as least likely to have a significant other. Unbeknownst to them… he is actually taken. By you, of course. 

Out of everyone, he was the one who was more secretive to everyone else. No one would probably know he was taken unless he was forced into a blind date for the nth time and he had to reject all of them for the nth time, he will probably slip it out of being too fed up—mostly to both Childe and Kaeya who keeps on pushing him. Secretly, actually, Kaeya knows and was just pretending he did not because he knows everything… 

Anyway, going back, he’s quite rich. A chaebol, actually. So yes, definitely, he will be taking you to luxury restaurants, etc. Be prepared to be showered with gifts as well because whenever he’s not around, he will think about what to give you and he will just deliver gifts to you… probably at random times, but he does have good meanings with each of them. Mostly, they were items that reminded him of you, or that he thinks it would be something you’d like. Sometimes, he sends a picture first, asking you if you like it. If you insist you don’t, he won’t get it, of course. He’ll only give you what you’re comfortable with. 

He’s quite inexperienced when it comes to dating, actually. He’s mostly the type who thinks about work all the time and the fact that he even has a significant other right now is quite surprising. At one point, he probably researched how to date someone. So if his actions are quite stiff, cliche and textbook at first, that is probably the reason. 

CHILDE

The loudest of the group. Would definitely not mind fan-service—and would probably even be the instigator of every fan-service out there. 

The most spontaneous. If you actually dated him, be ready to have lots of energy because he will take you on lots of dates. Sure, he has a busy schedule, but he looks quite free and would usually escape out of the dorms just to hang out with you. 

He will be taking you to carnivals, malls, festivals, and various restaurants too! Maybe even toy stores or just in fun places that would be exhilarating and would keep you on your toes. As much as he liked resting, you are probably the one that’s keeping him sane from all the stress he gets with being an idol. Of course, he’d want you to enjoy as well when you’re with him. 

And yes, you two will probably get caught because of this. Manager Ayato would be heavily disappointed with Childe… but he’s kind to you. 

Would also give you lots of gifts! The one who will give it at random. You probably have a whole cabinet of his gifts alone—maybe two. But who cares! At least you will have a teddy bear you could cuddle with if he’s not there or the small trinkets he gave you that you could probably make homemade accessories with them altogether to keep you busy but still be reminded of him. 

He usually whines whenever he’s far away from you. Would definitely call you whenever he could, and as much as possible so he could see your face for the day so he could “recharge,” was what he usually says. 

It’s not a secret between the boys that he’s taken too, maybe because he likes to brag about you to everyone else. He truly believes that if he can’t brag to the world, then he’ll brag to his world—his members, the ones closest to him. 

KAEYA

Actually is the best at fan-service and would sometimes have to be stopped by the other members or the manager. Childe sees him as both a competitor and an ally when it comes to the fans. 

Nonetheless, he will still be a good partner to you. 

However, contrary to popular belief, he, among everyone else, is the most secretive. It was actually the members who told the fans that he is the most mysterious man out there. At the same time, he doesn’t really want to reveal his relationship to anyone, which is something that the members also do not know unless he himself tells them. 

Of course, he would not just tell them without reason… well, there’s a possibility, but he will most likely keep it a secret, no matter how much he trusts them. Hell, if you two even got married, the fans, the members, and the manager will only know when they see a ring on his finger or whatever. 

This is most likely because he takes you seriously, and he did not want to ruin the single thing that makes him happy and free. Freedom is not something an idol like him possesses, but with your presence alone, he is reminded that… he is free. No matter what, a human should be free. 

At the same time, it may be because he just wants to keep you as a part of his “secret”. After all, he is really a secretive man, and the only one who probably knows most, if not all of it will be you. 

But the problem will be time. It will be difficult to spend time with you, especially on outdoor dates. Of course, as you are a secret not only to the world but to those who are his closest friends, it is not that easy to slip you in or slip out of the dorm without running out of ideas.

This is probably why you two have midnight or 3 AM dates. Although it would not be done that much because of course, both of you would need your sleep, especially him who has such a busy schedule. 

ZHONGLI

The gentleman of the group. He is the one who was offered to take the Leader position but he either gave it to someone else (Diluc, most likely) or took it when it was not allowed to give to someone else. 

He is the best boyfriend, I tell you—inexperienced or not. The epitome of a gentleman. Or is it just me being biased? But anyway, even with his busy schedule, he would still be making time for you. 

Yes, he is probably the most responsible and the one who takes the job seriously, but it was also his choice to date someone, he will also take responsibility for you and the relationship. 

He is quite private with his private life—of course, there’s a reason it is called “private”, is it not? And that includes you. This is not only because it would ruin his image—it is actually the least of his concerns, but it was mainly because it was for your safety. It is not a secret that partners of idols would often get harassed by the fans themselves—not really every fan, but he is aware of that nonetheless. That was why it was not even an option to broadcast the relationship without thinking twice, no, multiple times. 

Of course, he will also consider your feelings about this. He will always ask you if he makes a decision. Sure, he is decisive, but he will need to know your opinion as well, then you two will discuss it and will make a final decision together—especially if it’s something that involves your relationship. 

Since your relationship is a secret, dates with him will only be at both of your houses (not at the dorms though) or to simple places that have great landscapes and less crowd. He does great research on each of them, just like how he probably researched how to date while he’s an idol… Did I mention that already? Well, he did that. It’s to make sure that he does everything right though. 

AYATO

Manager Ayato! Definitely see this happening. 

He’s quite strict with the group, and would not be lenient most of the time. Well, there are exceptions. 

Ever since you had joined the picture and started dating him, the members had been quite thankful, actually. Because of you, their Manager will be a little bit softer than before. Sure, he’s still strict and all, but he’s not the type who’s work, work, work always. 

Every time you come over, the boys will cheer (mostly Childe and Kaeya), knowing that it will be ‘break time’ whenever you show up. 

Going to restaurants with the boys, or to filming their new music video, or if he allows it, maybe even to the awards night, accompanying him to witness the boys receiving awards for their hard work. 

Now that I think about it, you two are probably the boys’ parents—that’s what they call you two, anyway. 

One day, AYATO said to you how “You pamper them so much, I think they like you more than they do to me, love.” And that bit was quite true. 

Nonetheless, he assures you that this is not something he’s greatly affected by. On the contrary, he finds it amusing how the boys adored you. 

He’s quite busy as well but he does make time for you. As I said, the boys adore you, and they will probably insist their manager take day-offs not only for their betterment but also to make you happy! 

Speaking of dates, he is quite meticulous in planning them. They’re most successful though, don’t worry, but even if they look simple, they will always have a deeper meaning to them. Maybe he would take you to this restaurant. Did you know? This is the restaurant his father proposed to his mother. Something like that.

[atveren]

Monstadt and Liyue boys: You fall asleep on them, and they fall asleep on you. Plus a bonus for some of them!

Diluc, Venti, Kaeya, Albedo, Chongyun, Kazuha, Childe, Aether, Xiao, Xingqiu, Zhongli, Scaramouche

No Warnings

Headcanons, Gender Neutral (They/Them, You/Yours)

A spoiler for We Will Be Reunited in Aether’s second story, but its vague

Diluc

You fall asleep on them

It was a tiring day of commisions and the like, but you wanted to spend at least some time with your boyfriend. He was rambling on and on about his day and other stressful things that you could’t help but doze off. It took him a bit to notice, but when he did, he blushed. He knew the sofa wasn’t the most comfortable and gently carried you to your room, placing you on your bed, tucking you in. As he turned to leave, you clung to sleeve, silently asking him to stay. He gently nodded, and crawled in next to you. You and him both slept better than ever before.

They fall asleep on you

It was basically the reverse, but you couldn’t carry him, and just curled up next to him, drifitng off with his arms wrapped around you. He looked calm, and at peace. He genuinely trusted you. When he woke up, he blushed. He didn’t move until you woke up, and if you did before him he would apologise, face still tinted red. You forgave him, giving him a soft kiss. It was moments like this he adored, just being able to show his soft side. It was also a small gossip among the maids for about two days, but he never found out.

Bonus: PDA opinion

Not a huge fan of PDA, but if someone’s getting too touchy, won’t hesitate to pull you close. And show off his vision. If he’s around Kaeya, like at the tavern, he doesn’t mean to be rude but may slightly ignore your affections, just to spare you both from the teasing. Afterwards, will kiss your forehead and apologise, explaining his reasons. You forgave him, as always. You did understand, Kaeya was a menace at times.

Venti

You fall asleep on them

You were rested in his lap, as he played his Lyre. The tune was so calming, you weren’t particularly tired but drifted off. It took Venti awhile to notice. Only when he asked if you wanted to go for a walk, and you didn’t reply, did he notice. The bard didn’t wish to wake you, and let the lyre vanish into the winds. He let out a soft ‘Ehe~’ before leaning against the tree, and playing with your hair. He did drift off soon, with a comfortable expression.

They fall asleep on you

It was a late night, and you were carrying Venti back from the bar, as he was far too drunk to get home on his own. You got home and changed, your boyfriend laughing and waiting for you. You walked over to him on the bed, before wrapping your arms around his small frame, and pulling him close. You talked for a bit to him, noticing he had fallen asleep when he cuddled closer and his breathing was softer. You gently laughed, kissing his forehead before falling asleep yourself.

Bonus: PDA opinion

Unless you don’t want it, there is a lot of PDA, he just wants everyone to know your his beloved! Will cuddle or hug or kiss you anywhere from on the streets, to the tavern to the middle of the forest. His favourite place to cuddle with you, is of course, Windrise. He loves to rest with you there.

Kaeya

You fall asleep on them

You couldn’t help it! Despite the captain’s cryo vision, he was warm. And comfortable. And..Well, you could go on and on with excuses. It happened when you two were cuddling after a pretty tough day for the both of you. You tried to stay awake, but failed. He noticed quickly, with a chuckle. “Oh? Falling for me yet again..Adorable.” He kissed your forehead, and stayed awake, mainly because he had more work to do. He decided to put you to bed first, not wishing you to be uncomfortable.

They fall asleep on you

Similiar to Venti, you had to walk him home from the tavern. You struggled a bit, as he was somehow more clingy than you expected. You did get home, but not without struggle. “(Name)~” Kaeya whined, as you lead him to your room, letting him stay there. You knew what he wanted, and stayed. You leaned against the headboard, Kaeya clinging to your side. You stroked his hair until he fell asleep. You fell asleep soon as well. He was embarrassed when you mentioned how he acted, but played it off like it was intentional.

Bonus: PDA opinion

Another one for PDA. He’s flirty in public, but will stop or tone it down if you ask, he doesn’t want to make you discomforted, after all. He wouldn’t hesitate to be even more clingy if somebody was bothering you. Kaeya loves you, and will never let you think otherwise.

Albedo

You fall asleep on them

Albedo knew you didn’t understand much about the experiment he was explaining, but was glad you listened to him. “And that’s how...” He trailed off, noticing you were asleep on his shoulder. “I suppose it was a boring topic for them..” He muttered with a smile. He didn’t want to wake you, knowing how important sleep was for you, so he gently pulled you in his lap and wrapped his arms around you. Resting his head on your shoulder, he too fell asleep. His body was warm, a difference to the cold air of Dragonspine, and a nice one. Or, maybe it was just the fire that flickered in the background.

They fall asleep on you

You had begged the Chief Alchemist to take a break, as he had been working for a week straight. Albedo had deniend the need for rest, but the bags under his eyes said otherwise. He eventually gave in and you pat the sofa, with a happy smile. It wasn’t long that you felt a weight against your chest, and saw he was asleep. “I told you so..” You said, rolling your eyes in a loving manner. You stayed awake to make sure he stayed asleep, and he did until the morning, where he thanked you. You could never get his sleeping face out your mind, it was absolutely precious, and it was nice seeing him so at ease.

Chongyun

You fall asleep on them

Chongyun was rambling about some encounter he almost had with a spirit, but you weren’t paying much attention, only listening to the sound of his voice. He noticed when you leaned against his shoulder, eyes shut and breathing soft. He didn’t want to move, despite him beginning to overheat. He tried to gently move you so he could get a popsicle, but when he heard you mumble, he froze. The exorcist didn’t move, at all. He waited until you woke up, which wasn’t pleasent and he didn’t feel the best afterwards. When you noticed, you were quick to apologise and grab him one, coming up with excuses. Chongyun forgave you, he couldn’t stay mad (not that he was), at you anyway.

They fall asleep on you

Xingqiu had pranked him with a far too spicy dish and you were thankfully there, able to quickly get the situation under control and help your boyfriend. You both went back to your place, as it was getting late. You were talking, and before you knew it he was passed out agaisnt you. You couldn’t blame him, it was rather stressful earlier and he was burnt out. You gently kissed his forehead before carrying him to your room and laying down next to him. When he woke up, he was blushing, but still was calm. It surprised him, a lot.

Kazuha

You fall asleep on them

Beidou has agreed to let you come with on the next voyage they went on, and so you were pretty happy. It was a few nights in, and you and Kazuha were talking. You were leaned against him, and he had an arm around you. It was late, and it was to be expected but you drifted off to the sound of his voice, the ocean crashimg against the boat and the wind. Kazuha noticed instantly, and smiled. Beidou walked onto the deck, about to say something when he gave a small wave, asking her to be quiet. She nodded, deciding it could wait and left you two alone again.

They fall asleep on you

You hadn’t joined them this time, waiting for your beloved instead. When he got back, you were both quick to leave and talk elsewhere, which was your home. You rambled about what had happened in the mean time, while he listened. After falling asleep, he looked even more peaceful. You were happy to rest with him, knowing it wouldn’t be too long before you both would leave again.

Childe

You fall asleep on them

The harbinger had gotten some free time, and was spending it dragging you through the harbour. It was a rather long day, and you were exhausted by the time you got home. You sat on the couch, with your beloved. You were talking for awhile before the exhaustion kicked in and you dropped against his shoulder. Tartaglia didn’t expect this, and shot up, assuming you were trying to attack him, (for some reason, maybe to keep him on guard.) That was not the case, and you were thrown to the floor because of physics, and hit it, harshly. He was embarrassed to say the least, and in your moment of exhausted anger, you did smack his shoulder. He found it fair. Childe was forgiven, but only because he let you sleep in his lap instead.

They fall asleep on you

Childe returned home after a long day of training new recruits. He curled up in bed next to you. You spoke for awhile, until exhaustion set in for him, and he fell asleep. You considered pettily waking him up, like he’d done to you, but when you saw his peaceful and loving expression, you couldn’t. You kissed his cheek before falling asleep as well. His arms wrapped more around you in your shared slumber, and he was grateful when he woke that you’d let him rest. He still felt bad about the other day, and was trying to make it up to you.

Aether

You fall asleep on them

Aether had invited you to the teapot, and you were in his room. Paimon was there too, but she was eating something in the kitchen area, leaving you two alone for now. It was awhile later that you had grown tired, and Aether had as well. He opened his arms and let you cuddle close. This was all fine and dandy until Paimon entered the room. “Aether! We’re out of sticky honey roast!!!” She mentioned, practically yelling. You let out a tired and confused mumble, being awoken by the yelling. Aether gently hushed you, and covered your ears. “Paimon, if you don’t shut up right now..I will tell Xianling to turn you into emergency food. That is a threat.” He said, his tone tired but harsh. Paimon squeaked and quickly left. You were both undisturbed for the rest of the night.

They fall asleep on you

Aether entered your home, and he seemed distraught. He explained everything that happened with his sister, and sobbed into your arms. You were worried, and let him cry it out. You noticed Paimon was no-where to be seem and assumed he’d asked to be alone. It took awhile, but his breathing slowed and he’d..well he’d cried himself to sleep. You were just glad he was mostly uninjured, gently stroked his hair, hoping to keeo him asleep. It worked, as he slept throught the night fully.

Xiao

You fall asleep on them

You had spent the day at the balcony of Wangshu Inn, waiting for you adepti boyfriend. It had been a slow day, but you hadn’t slept much and were tired. This didn’t stop you from offering a bright smile as your beloved appeared. You both talked about what things you’d seen recently, and as always he was a bit shy. You wished you could’ve told him that you were tired, but you didn’t want to waste what time you had with Xiao. It was well into the evening when you felt your tiredness kick in, and you fell asleep, against him. It surprised the Adeptus, and before either of you knew it, he vanished. You woke up instantly, and looked around for him. You sighed with a bit of disappointment, you wanted to apologise, and weren’t sure how.

They fall asleep on you

It was days later he made an appearance again, you rushed over to him, apologising on repeat. Xiao softly hushed you, guilt in his eyes. He’d spoken to Verr Goldet, and she’d told him the best course of action. He’d let you hold him, and both of you eventually drifted off, he apologised again in the morning. You’d already forgiven him. Plus, the fact he’d let you get so close and even hold him in his sleep was proof he trusted you.

Xingqiu

You fall asleep on them

It was an agreed date, you could rest and he would read. Plus, you’d be in each other’s company, which was great for the both of you. Xingqiu let you rest against him as he read, encouraging you to get the sleep you needed. You were a bit suspicious, assuming this would be some prank, but trusted him anyway. That proved to be a mistake, as when you awoke and walked back, you recieved odd looks. You didn’t understand until you got to your mirror, and saw the small doodles he’d drawn on your face. You were embarrassed, heavily. You swore to get your revenge.

They fall asleep on you

Xingqiu entered your home, it was a long day for him. All he really wanted was just to cuddle you and go to bed. You offered a sweet smile, scooching over and letting him lay next to you. After he fell asleep, you wondered on your revenge. It seemed fate had other plans as you fell asleep as well. When he woke up first, he’d expected you to have gotten some form of revenge, but noticing nothing had changed, he did feel a bit bad. When you awoke, he apologised and promised to let you rest normally next time. And when that time came, he kept his word. He didn’t want to upset you too badly, after all he was always big on chivalry.

Zhongli

You fall asleep on them

Zhongli spoke of more stories, history and the like, you normally loved listening to him and were always interested, but you’d stayed up a bit too late and were tired. You sat on his lap, as he told another one of the things that had happened in his long life. He noticed you fell asleep when your usual questions never came. He chuckled softly, kissing your forehead. He carried you to bed, and tucked you in. The archon though for a moment, before deciding to join you.

They fall asleep on you

The atmosphere was relaxed, and Zhongli wrapped his arms around you. You smiled, leaning against his chest. He rested his head on top of yours, and shuts his eyes. He didn’t mean to fall asleep, but he did. You didn’t mind, and let the archon rest. If anything, you were glad to be getting so much rest with him, something told you that others weren’t so lucky.

Scaramouche

You fall asleep on them.

It was rare moments you were able to rest with the harbinger, but you never took them for granted. You would clear your schedule when he was free, knowing Scaramouche was a busy person. The one thing you couldn’t change was your energy levels, and you were exhausted. The past week you’d done nothing but work, and rarely slept. But when he notified you he was free, you rushed over. You’d managed to hide your sleepiness so far, knowing how against physical affection he was. But your eyes grew heavy, and you dropped against him. He froze up for a moment, before shoving you off. He hadn’t even registered you were exhausted nor that you had fallen asleep. You blinked, staring at him befofe muttering a small apology and that you had to go, not wanting to bother him. He realised he messed up, and hoped to be able to let you forgive him.

They fall asleep on you

It was another time you were both thankfully free, and he had asked to meet at your place. You had nervously agreed. Upon entering, the first thing he did was apologise, which was a surprise in itself. Then after the small bit you talked, you noticed he seemed tired. He had mentioned he wanted to make it up to you...You moved closer, which confused the harbinger, before you wrapped your arms around him. He was about to protest, before you reminded him of what he had said. He nodded, with a sigh...but he had to admit, he was comfortable..and maybe this wasn’t so bad. His eyes eventually closed, and he had guessed you would shove him off like he’d done to you..but all you did was offer a smile, holding your boyfriend closer, before falling asleep yourself.

[nemo-of-house-hamartia]

omg now way. omg now way.

no way.

APPLE PIE IS MY FAVOURITE DESSERT IN THIS WHOLE WORLD. AND THAT LOOKS SO SO SO DELICIOUS.

omgomgomgomg thank you so so so so much!! does happy dance

accepts it gratefully and scarfs it down because it's SO SO GOOD

also, please, keep rambling and keep talking because dear gods, I absolutely adore Genshin and listening and having the chance to talk about it with someone that equally adore it is PERFECTION. And omgomgom writing fics about it??? ok, I am all for it. I am ready. I am mostly brainstorming around and drawing about it (cannot seem to stop the brain long enough to put words down), but I am always up for chitchatting about fanfictions and stories! :D

This game is truly everything. I have the soundtrack in my spotify downloaded list because I listen so much to it, it's just everything. And honestly, YES. The roaming around to discover all these beautiful places (gotta admit, Mondstadt is still very much my favorite among the 4 regions we have as of now, with Liyue coming close second. Even when I have quests to take care of, I am always so happy to just be in Mondstadt, and truly wished we have more quests and events revolving around the City of Wind and Song).

and omg your choice of favourites is EVERYTHING.

I am so sad to admit that I do not have Albedo in my roster (am saving up those primos hoping that we will get his banner again soon, because I need to have all the Mondstadt characters, and as of now, I am missing a few lol), BUT KAEYA. KAEYA HAS BEEN THERE FROM WHEN I FIRST STARTED PLAYING AND I AM NOT PLANNING OF HAVING HIM GO ANYWHERE. Like, I seriously adore his character, and I am so so intrigued by his story, I cannot wait to see him in the upcoming version 3.5. I saw some leaks and omgomgomgomgomgomg I cannot wait. As for who my favourite are, allow me to show you my current team, which is made up of all the bebes I love the most (tho, as you said, I have truly an hard time not liking everyone because each character is likable in their own way!)

LIKE. HERE ARE THE BEBES I LOVE AND ADORE. Seriously, Zhongli and Diluc are the ones that are neck and neck for who I like the most, and then I have Kaeya and then Venti (because I just love his attitude. He is a little shit (most affectionate), and I can get enough of his antics. ALSO, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WHEN ALBEDO WALKED AROUND YOU COULD HEAR THE SMALL CLINKING, omg that is downright adorable!! and have you noticed that when you are looking at the characters in their menus, you can hear the sound of the elemental vision?? Like, I didn't notice at first, because I was playing with the PS4, so unless the volume was at max, it was impossible to hear. But then I was playing on the PC as well, with my earbuds on, and THAT'S when I noticed it and I was all "omgomgomgomgomgomg". Seriously, this game is just beyond amazing, I am honestly so in love with it. The only thing is that I am F2P, which means that I have to grind a lot to get those primos, and sometimes (i.e. almost always) I don't have enough to pull for the characters I want. So I need to plan carefully with both the whole Pity System and just wait up and not risk it. But I have to be honest, as of now I got all the characters I truly truly wanted (I am only missing Mona, Jean and Hu Tao that I truly truly want, but don't have, so I am hoping that I will be able to get them soon enough, tbh), so I cannot complain :D

as for the events, the Lantern Rite is MOST DEFINITELY one of my favourite, because Liyue is just absolutely breathtaking during this event, and seeing all the lanterns floating up is just so dreamy (plus, LORE ABOUT XIAO AND ZHONGLI, so I am all for it. I always in it to know more about darling Zhongli and bebe Xiao,) and the other one is the Weinlesefest (dear gods, the tears I poured for dearest Razor during that event) and Windblume, but this one I was too late for the game to actually play it, so I only watched the cutscene on youtube. But I am truly hoping for it to be back, because I NEED TO SEE MONDSTADT ALL DECORATED AND GO AROUND TOWN AND MEET ALL THE MONDSTADT CHARACTERS. What about you, what are your favourite events???? :D And please, do not hesitate to ramble, because seriously, Genshin is awesome and I love to chitchat about it with another fellow estimator of the game!! :D

Morning morning!!

Coming in to bring something good to drinm and munch on!

Also, i saw that you are into Genshin???😁😁 me too!!! I just adore that game!!! 🤩Who is your favourite character, if you don't mind me asking??😁😁

Ohhhh thank you! Please have a piece of apple pie in return! Made it myself last night :D

Genshin is such a good game! I love the music, I love the exploring, I love the lore, I love te soundtrack! (And writing silly little fics about it all :D)

Favorite character is a hard question, hmmmm... aaaa there's so many good characters but I think Kaeya and Albedo :D I just love the way Kaeya talks and all the backstory that goes with his past. And if the leaks can be believed there will be even more about him in 3.5! And ngl, the hair and the fur scarf are just *happy sigh* And Albedo? Just look at him, so cute! And the voice? Damn, Khoi is talented. And his relationship with Klee and Alice. I have alchemy fam feels aaaaaaaaaaa :') oh, oh! I noticed last night that when Albedo walks, his clothes do this little metal clinking sound and I really like it!

I always get so happy talking about Genshin :D what about you? What's your favorite character? Any favorite events? :D

[husbandohunter]

You know ur small predicament post?? you should make a reverse version where s/o is smaller!

A Smaller Predicament [Genshin Impact x Smol!Reader]

Characters: Scaramouche, Diluc, Kaeya, Childe, Xiao, Zhongli, Albedo

Synopsis: Not only did you shrink, you went pocket sized as well!

(A sequel to "A Small Predicament")

(A/n): Sorry for the long wait anon, and I kind of added a twist to the scenario for more diversity hahaha hope you don't mind >_<. And why is Childe the poster boy for this series lmao.

------------

Childe

When Childe walks in, he doesn't see you....until he looked down. He almost crunched you beneath his feet if it weren't for your constant flailing of arms and screeching voice. He blanks out for a hot minute as you clung onto his toes, doesn't dare to move an inch because he's so petrified (even though there's nothing to be afraid of??). But honestly if Childe moved right now, he might accidentally flail you to the side and that's the last thing he wants.

"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU??" He screamed so loud it nearly blew you out of proportion. Seems like he's going to have alot of adjusting to do. Childe is a tall man (canonically the tallest) and he knows how impulsive he can get which is why he bought a handmade dollhouse from one of the Liyue merchants for you to stay in.

Though there's something about your tiny size that makes his heart flutter. With your face so small with a pair of eyes far too big, *clutches chest* "My oujo-chan is so cute" -Childe probably. He won't stop saying them over again and you were growing tired of his gushing reactions. He can't help it. He wants to spoil you rotten. You fit right onto the flat of his palms, the way you just snuggle up againts his finger and he just- swoons, might tear up (bruh).

Toys may be for kids but for Childe it was now his favourite pass time. While you navigate around the wooden dollhouse, he pitches in by moving around the furniture to make it easier for you. Offers to carry you through the rooms like a personal elevator. And please, please let him tuck you to bed. He has to pinch his fingers to grab the blanket. It's so adorable to him.

Loves it when you snuggle up against his collar. He thinks it would be the best area for you to be nearby him since the risk of you getting hit by anything (or him) by accident is very slim chance. Sometimes he pulls up his collar so that you're more comfortable and cradled within. He would have to avert his eyes down rather than turning his head if he wanted to look at you otherwise you'd be hit by his chin and that would hurt.

The poking sensation with you by his neck can bother him since he's veeeery tickilish there. Plus, Childe can get easily sweaty so have fun with that.

You have a feeling that he wasn't so pleased when you transformed back. You might be right. Actually, you are right. He secretly has an extra potion hidden somewhere...just in case.

Diluc

Mortified, his soul just left his body. To think things couldn't get any worse ever since he turned into a child to the point no one took him seriously, now you're literally the size of an apple. Oh god what if his bird suddenly swoops in and gobbles you right up? Or the wrath of the wind comes by, swirling you away towards a tornado. Needless to say, Diluc grew paranoid over your well-being ever since.

Due to your extremely small size, he will ensure that you are supervised by him (except at night where he has places to go). In otherwords, you're slipped into the inner pocket of his coat. It's super warm, you can fall asleep (and feel his heartbeat awww). Diluc doesn't like keeping you in places where people can see you, it would be too easy for outer things to access your tiny form (or maybe he secretly likes the feeling of you in his pocket.)

And he's such a gentleman about it. You noticed how careful he moves among his footsteps because he's worried that you might get dizzy. Diluc guards the pocket at close parameter, keeping an eye on things so he won't bump into them. As if he was treading on thin ice (you even suggested it was best to leave you home but he's too overprotective for his own good).

You're like his little assistant. Diluc does so much paperwork through out the day and although the act was small, he finds it endearing how you would help bring the papers back to it's rightful pile or pushing the ink bowl towards him. Or during his shifts at Angel's Share, crawling around the glass utensils and trying to find a specific wine beverage on his shelf. Of course that only happens when the shop is closed, how is he going to explain to his patrons that you shrank and now live in his pocket?

He dislikes the thought of you wandering too far. It's so easy for you to get lost especially when the mansion is so large.

At night you now sleep atop the fluff of the pillow. Diluc is a calm sleeper so he won't have to worry about hitting into you. However he radiates warmth so you just subconicously roll towards to his face. He usually wakes up with you sprawled over his nose. He can hardly breath (careful, he might just sneeze too).

This all happened because of the experiements you participated with Albedo. Diluc ensures that doesn't happen again. It will take some tencaious effort to convince him otherwise.

Scaramouche

Fuck this guy. He treats you like his new pet, a new toy (though you technically are one). He has this arrogant, smug and sadistic look as if he was a predator looking at his prey and grabs you by the collar before dangling you up in the air.

"Hmph, looks like the tables have turned," he says while toying with your state. You tell him he's just angry because he's short himself and mad that everyone else in the Fatui organization is taller than him. Scaramouche demon face activated. He's about to devour you. (Maybe you should keep your mouth shut this time. Honestly your relationship with him is pretty weird).

His hat is so fun to play with. You'd swing around like Tarzan using the strings that were hanging from it. His head was your playground now which annoys him to an enourmous extent because it makes him look ridiculous. Scaramouche will have a hard time catching you since you move around so much. Climb around him, especially the back of his neck. He'll start wheezing when you tickle him there.

The type to put you in a box but also the type to keep you on his shoulders. Being relied on makes him feel taller (lmfao). Scaramouche seemse to have developed a habit to poke your cheeks whenever he needed your attention and you bit him back once when he pushed too hard that you nearly fell off. Despite your size, your teeth still hurt. He threatens to put you back into the box if you don't behave and the outcome ends with a full out brawl as he tries to grab you again while you run around, pulling the strands of his hair to climb on top of his hat. (This is literally Tom and Jerry wtf.)

After transforming back, he outwardly admits his disappointmen. Scaramouche says it suits you better (when he actually meant that he highly prefers you small). You marked his words, keeping an extra vial for your own entertainment in the near future.

Xiao

Xiao was face-palming against his forehead real hard about this. For the love of Rex Lapis, what kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into this time? First it was the child incident, now you're the size of his finger? Good grief, looks like he will have to keep an eye on you from now on but at the same time he's scared to get too close, you are nothing but a tiny mortal in which he would have to double his effort to look after.

He lets you sit at the crown of his head rather than anywhere else. You insisted since it was easier to see everything at a nice distance (plus he's short so you won't have to worry about him bumping into door frames). You noticed that Xiao also has a little strand sticking out from the center (ahoge) and you sometimes grab onto it for stability. Turns out he's quite sensitive there and winces when you pull too hard.

For the remaining week as the antedote was being prepared, Xiao became extremely aggressive over your well-being, he looks as if he's ready to massacre everything in his way...which he did. Clears out the monsters off the path before going on daily strolls with you, you wouldn't have to lift a finger from now on. No one except for him is allowed to hold you unless they're a trustworthy person. You could feel his sharp eyes glued on you like a hawk when walking into the grasp of Zhongli's hand.

You once accidentally tripped into his almond tofu when he wasn't looking and he almost ate you. Turns out being small made his job as your gaurdian ten times harder (especially when you're the clumsy type). If you were to fall off the table, he would have to catch you right? Xiao often bumps into furnitures in the process...ouch!

He's very soft. It's all over his forehead, his mouth, his eyes. When he looks at you, his tense eatures melted away and there's an invisible fondness over them as he cradles you in his palm. The way you snuggle in them is lke the most precious thing in the world.

When you turn back, there's a wave of relief. He was really stressed out you know?

Zhongli

His first thought is to get you as far as he can from the Funeral Parlour before Hu Tao finds you. Who knows what that child might have in mind. Zhongli takes one of his empty tea pots and urges you to go inside, or carries a tea cup with you in it, he likes placing you on objects while carrying you around.

Zhongli realizes that you can no longer use the household items like before so he has to remake them to your standards- especially when he realized he doesn't have the mora to buy you a dollhouse. He improvises. Takes a handkerchief to make your blanket, his cups for your bathtub, Zhongli had to cut the foot into byte-sized too. But in terms of clothes, well he had to make them as well. Living thousands of years would mean he would have lot of experience. Sewing was one of them luckily. But that would mean he has to take your measurements as well. In the end, most of the things he made were dresses since they were alot easier.

You like to sneak in between his shirt and his vest tucked behind the coat he wears. Unfortunately Zhongli doesn't seem to have visible pockets (most likely the reason why he doesn't carry mora either), though if you don't hold on tight you might just slip down his vest and right to his stomach. It makes him chuckle when that happens even if the amount of effort to get you out took more than he thought since his attire is quite complicated to put on. If you really want to climb on him, he'll find a seperate pouch (but realizes it won't be a good idea when there's alot of pick-pocketers in Liyue streets).

All of a sudden he reads you bedtime stories. It's some sort of inner instinct that tells him he's taking care of a child now (he's right though). You realized that his voice was equivalent to a thunder's roar due to size difference. He would have to whisper now.

It will always be part of his precious memories when you turned pocket-sized. Zhongli still keeps the clothing he made somewhere in his closets too.

Kaeya

Amused by this eventful situation. Absolutely thrilled! He's not evil like Scaramouche but this new version of his s/o is both adorable and fun at the same time. You're so easy to tickle, just one poke using his finger against your hips makes you yelp. Sometimes he twirls your hair or taps your forehead gently despite your protest, he's so handsy like always in an affectionate yet annoying way.

Kaeya picks you up and places you among the fluffy comfort of his feathery scarf. You sneezed, the last time he cleaned it was before he went on a mission with the knights. Though you have to admit, it's the best feeling in the world. It's so soft you might sink deeper into the fabric. He likes to put you in places where he can talk to you easily, sometimes on the table while he downs on his wine. Normally you have to take the bottle away before it gets too much, now you have to push it away which he finds very entertaining at your futile attempts.

"Don't you have anything better to do?" you tell him. Since you turned byte-sized, he can't seem to stop playing around. Takes his two fingers and pretends they're legs walking across the surface. You would turn around and he halts, Kaeya sends you his signature grin. When he promises that he wouldn't do anything funny, you would let him hold you. Since hugs are out of the equation, Kaeya gives you his finger instead to wrap your arms around. He can't get enough seeing you like this, things he couldn't do when you were normal-sized. he enjoys your reactions way too much.

His favourite pass time is helping you brush your hair because the hairbursh is too big for you to handle. Kaeya ensure he's handling things delicately but he would love to help style it for you as well. Pretty please? At this point one request turns to another because he's having way too much fun. But it couldn't be helped since you would need his assistance in almost everything so there's really no escaping.

You were so happy when things were normal again but Kaeya would bring this up again during your conversations (how next time he would like to put you in his drinks while you're wearing a swim suit).

Albedo

Legit blurted out if he could put you on a hamster wheel.

What about trying out the little maze he just made?

Or participating in a race against slimes of different elements?

No? Okay, then he'll just turn you back.

Albedo isn't going deal with this as along as he can help it (especially when he remembers what Klee did to him when he turned small.)

“Would you like a kiss?” [Genshin Impact]

How would they react if you ask them “would you like a kiss?” and proceed to give them the “kisses” chocolate?

Characters Included: Aether, Albedo, Bennett, Childe, Chongyun, Dainsleif, Diluc, Gorou, Kaeya, Kazuha, Thoma, Razor, Scaramouche, Venti, Xiao, Xingqiu & Zhongli + GN! Reader

Notes: idk anymore- xD this is only short because the format is similar to the imagines i do. Hope ya’ll like this! :D

Warning: kisses which means tongue is involve a little and slightly seductive on kaeya’s part. 

Aether

... has the most betrayed look on his face, puffing out his cheeks while glaring at you slightly. How dare you tease him like this?! Whining quietly as he leans in with the most adorable pleading face that he could mustered. He wants his kithes, not chocolates! Would smile brightly when you do give him what he seeks from you. 

Albedo

… takes a moment to process what you did before he shoves the chocolate in his mouth and leaning in to lock lips with you. Smirking at your flustered reaction, amusement dance in his eyes as he pulls away, whilst stating “that’s quite a treat” before walking away leaving you standing there frozen. Your plan totally backfired on you. 

Bennett

... flashes you a big smile as he thanks you for the chocolate, taking it from your hands. Mentally disappointed though, he was really hoping for a kiss from you. But eating the chocolate is enough to bring his mood back up. But if you do give him a kiss, he would have a goofy smile on his face. 

Childe

... would laugh the instant he sees the chocolate in his hand, flicking your forehead for teasing him like that. Whilst holding the chocolate in his hand, his other hand wraps around your waist to pull you towards him. Pressing you to his body while looking straight in your eyes with a mischief glint in his eyes, “you didn’t think I would let you go scott-free?”

Chongyun

... has the most obvious disappointed face among the boys. He was expecting kisses, not the chocolate ones. But quickly composing himself as he explains that he’s grateful for the chocolate and all, he was just expecting a real kiss. Safe to say, he might need a popsicle to calm the burning heat of embarrassment inside of him. If you want a dead Chongyun though, kiss him anywhere and you need to plan his funeral afterwards-

Dainsleif

... “why are you giving me chocolates? I thought you said ‘kiss’?” the most confused man in this list. You might need to explain this to him, and he’ll only able to understand half of it. Not gonna lie, the situation might turn awkward and he’ll unintentionally spoil the mood. Apologizing softly while pressing a kiss on your knuckles and lips. 

Diluc

... gives you the “are you kidding me” stare before turning around and leaving you there. Has a pout on his face as he trudges his way towards the tavern or mansion. Deliberately ignores you if you call him from behind, he knows he’s being petty but the man was really expecting a kiss from his lover. Really gives you the silent treatment for the whole day until you give him a kiss. Please give this man the kiss- 

Gorou

... “very funny” down was his ears and so was his lips, frowning at the joke you made. Being a half-hybrid like Diona, I don’t think he’s allowed to eat those. So it’s a bit cruel on his part as he glares at you in annoyance while his tail flicks behind him back and forth. Might also give you the silent treatment if you don’t kiss him at once. 

Kaeya

... rolls his eyes while patting you on the head, taking the chocolate from your hands and pressing it on his lips whilst keeping eye contact with you. Smirking as he notice your gaze fixated on the piece of chocolate as he takes a bite out of it. “darling my eyes are up here” laughing at your flustered reaction before swiftly pressing his lips on yours, still able to taste the chocolate he ate in his mouth. 

Kazuha

... chuckles at the joke as he plucks it out from your hands and eating it in front of you, not before thanking you of course and proceeded to go by his day. He would not give you the satisfaction from it, as he laughs at your face when he takes a peek in your direction. Karma is the best. But he does give you lots of kisses when the sun falls from the horizon so don’t worry. He can’t resist you really.

Thoma

... another man who pouts at you before wrapping his arm around your waist and pressing you against him. His face resembling a whining puppy who’s asking for attention, you can’t help but laugh at him. Bringing his face to rest on your shoulder, he mumbles “it’s not funny” before smirking and his fingers started to ruthlessly brush your ticklish spots making you shriek and laughed, squirming away from him. Good luck escaping his clutches. 

Razor

... another boy who’s confused. Might end up like Dainsleif, explaining to the wolf boy what the joke is about and effectively making it awkward around you. Frowning when sensing the tense air around you two, he leans towards you before nudging his head to yours, a symbol of a kiss in wolf terms. “is... that what s/o asks for?” 

Scaramouche

... better think carefully if you want to prank him. Would have the most scariest face amongst them all. Gives you the harshest glare while shoving the chocolate in your mouth before walking away grumbling under his breath. Might ignore you for days because of it and no matter how much kisses you tried giving him, it wouldn’t work. So proceed with caution with him. 

Venti

... laughs at your joke before calling you out for it. He probably did this with you once already, knowing this man. You cannot fool him despite him being years older than you. Gives you an A+ for effort though, and proceeded to smother you with kisses. Afterwards proceeds to tickle you mercilessly, a punishment he muse, for tricking an archon. 

Xiao

... has the “why are you with me again?” face while raising a brow at your action, mentally asking himself why on teyvat did he choose you as an s/o. Then you proceeded to give him a smile and he feels his heart beating loudly in his chest as he muse “oh right”. Would have no other reaction than rolling his eyes and proceeded with his day. But if you look closely, you can see a pout on the great Yaksha’s face. 

Xingqiu

... literally pinches your cheeks while having a tight smile on his face as he stretches them, not paying mind to your whining. Scolding you for pranking him like that, “as punishment, you will be sentenced to not get any kisses from me for the entire day.” True to his word, he didn’t give you any kisses whatsoever. Even if you tried, this boy can literally do a backflip just to avoid you. Don’t worry, he can’t last long either. So when the clock strikes 12 on the clock, he goes immediately to you and demands for his kisses, asking more since he didn’t get one yesterday. 

Zhongli

... a sigh escapes his lips while he shakes his head at your joke, amused at your actions. He completely expected this to happen since he did see you with Hu Tao earlier and knowing that girl, she would’ve told you this prank. Thanking you like the gentlemen he is and swiftly press a kiss on your lips before leaning back and eats the chocolate. “it’s quite delicious... what’s with that face, my love?”
