Atmospherics

Fandom: Genshin Impact Pairing: Kuki Shinobu/Shikanoin Heizou Summary: Heizou is detective and Shinobu is a lawyer in modern Teyvat. They were childhood friends, separated by different paths. When they come together again, Shinobu realizes that some things are never truly over. A Tears of Themis AU Ao3 Link

Shinobu had long since considered herself as having grown up. She’d moved away from the shrine village of the mountain a few years ago, defying her parents’ hopes for her dreams and future to move to Liyue to study the art of law under the finest experts in all of Teyvat. It was there that she had learned so much more than just the law. 

She’d learned how to cook and keep house, but she also had learned how to exist with herself, how to learn a new set of skills, and how to market herself as an independent woman. 

By the time she’d returned to Inazuma, she could hardly recognize the girl she’d once been. Of course, she didn’t go back to her village—instead she had gone to Inazuma City, to work for the Themis Law Firm there. She kept an apartment in the heart of the City of Eternity, and had made a name for herself. Kuki Shinobu, the lawyer who could take on nearly any case, the personal protege of the legendary Deng Yanfei. She ignored the calls from home, the voice messages begging her to come back now that she had her education and her fun.

When would they figure out that this wasn’t about fun, or some hedonistic impulse?

She would never come back to her hometown. She’d left her childhood behind, all memories under the pinkish glow of the sakura blooms and turquoise-blue moonlight. 

But Shinobu never expected a piece of her childhood to come back to her, to come bursting into her independent life in the city. 

It started with a case at Shimura’s restaurant, a class-action lawsuit by a group of businessmen who claimed to be poisoned by the pesticide used in the building. One of his waitresses, a young woman— who he had been supporting to go to the university, as he had so many students before—- had requested Shinobu’s aid in trying to fight the lawsuit. 

“I know he isn’t careless,” she’d told Shinobu while wringing her hands. “I just know that someone’s framed him!”

Shinobu didn’t like the idea of letting an old man lose everything like that. So of course, she took the case and agreed to help Shimura. When she came to investigate and figure out if they had a case, she knew that the waitress had also hired a detective to help her. 

But when the detective came through the door, she wasn’t expecting to see none other than her childhood best friend.

“Well, well, well, if it isn’t Kiki Shinobu.” His mint green eyes surveyed her a moment before they met her own violet ones. “Fancy seeing you here.”

“Hello, Heizou.” Shinobu placed a hand on her hip. “So you did become a detective after all.”

He’d laughed. “Took a while, but I got there eventually.” 

The way he looked at her, Shinobu knew he wasn’t just talking about the detective job. 

Of course, after their initial investigation, Shinobu insisted on going out to dinner with him. They could catch up, as old friends. As the sun set over the hills, they spoke about what they’d been up to in the last few years. 

Heizou had been the first to leave their small town on top of Mount Narukami. Too clever for her own good and brighter than the midday sun, he burned for glory, so of course he’d graduated a year early. He’d gotten a full ride to the university on Watatsumi Island, pursuing forensic science, a good and sensible career. Everyone was proud, excited for him.

Shinobu was too, although she remembered that last rainy afternoon before he left for good. 

“It’s not like I’ll be gone forever,” he’d promised her then. “You can’t get rid of me that easily. Besides, with your talents, you’ll be there with me in another year.”

He was right, in a way. Perhaps growing up on Mount Narukami had given him the gift of prophecy in hanging around the shrine all the time. 

Then again, he hadn’t been entirely right. Shinobu’s life had gone down a completely different path, one that nobody expected. Least of all her. 

She’d applied to the university on Watatsumi Island in hopes of joining Heizou. But they’d declined her, for one reason or another. Shinobu wasn’t entirely sure. Not that she could have been sad about it for long. The day after her rejection came in from Watatsumi Island, she’d received a full ride for Liyue Harbor’s most prestigious university and had been put on the track to study law like she’d always dreamed. 

She’d applied on a whim, a misplaced sense of having flown too close the sun, for surely it wouldn’t happen?

“And yet it did.” Heizou folded his arms over his chest and leaned back, clearly impressed. “And look at you now.”

“Look at you—you finally became a detective.” Shinobu paused, thinking of the years with no letters, not even so much as a phone call or an email or a text. “What happened, by the way? I thought you were fogging to become a forensic scientist, not a detective.”

A smile played at his lips, but something darker lingered in his eyes. “What can I say? Like you, the plan changed.”

Shinobu narrowed her eyes and said nothing. She knew better, she could read him too well. But she knew there was also no point in pressuring him. 

Besides, who knew if their paths would continue to cross?

Naturally, their paths crossed plenty of times after that. More investigations, all linked together by mysterious drugs and chemical substances brought them together. They’d become a team for the cops to call, the most elite detective and lawyer, surely making Inazuma all the safer for it. 

They didn’t keep it to work either. It became trips to Homuland Inazuma, a sleep-in at the aquarium. They tried making jade parcels from Liyue, from a cookbook that Shinobu had picked up during her cooking phase in college. Going to escape rooms and doing scavenger hunts together on their weekends off. 

She’d surprise him with some new skill she’d picked up in her time away. He’d hint at yet another secret, a new mystery about the years away that he wasn’t ready yet to reveal. She hoped someday he would. 

It was on a rainy morning as Shinobu sorted through old photographs sent courtesy of her mother as she listened to Variations on a Theme of Schumann that she had an epiphany. Seeing the green-haired girl who chased after the bold, daring boy in the photos, quietly making sure their misadventures ended in safety, it reminded her of how she had once felt when they were both children. 

Some things were never really over, she’d realized. And she had never been over the childhood crush she’d held for Shikanoin Heizou. It was different now that they were both adults, it was something deeper and more complex. But she could recognize the base of it for what it was, the flame that had never gone out, the storm that never ceased. 

It was then that she knew how she felt, and she had to tell him. Not over text or phone, no digital form could properly express the ever-dancing lightning inside of her. 

Without abandon, she sprinted into the rain. 

Others might have feared the rain pelting Shinobu’s skin, the lightning’s arc overhead or the howling winds. But how could Shinobu fear the storm? For that was her and Heizou in their very souls, they were the essence of the storm. An unstoppable force, meant to be together. 

She was completely soaked through by the time she showed up outside of Heizou’s door. But she didn’t care. 

“I love you,” she said when he opened the door. 

She didn’t expect him to take on that disapproving, pitiful look. “We can’t.”

“I don’t care.” She took his face into her hands. “Whatever secrets you have, I don’t care, nothing can change this.”

“I know.” Their faces were almost touching. His tone was filled with a reverent admiration, like watching lightning touch the ocean and light up the waves. “Nothing can stop the great Kuki Shinobu.”

“So just let me in,” she whispered, even though she didn’t know why. 

“I love you too.” That was as much of an answer as Shinobu needed to lean in for the kiss.

There would be time for discussions, for dark secrets, for a history to be unearthed. But for now, there was this, the electricity and the course of the wind. All else could wait.

HI TELL ME ABT THE GENSHIN GSNK AU

HELLO HELLO OK SO!!

to start the genshin gsnk au is also a fanfic which you can see here .there’s only 4 chapters so far but i will add more someday this is a promise

anyway i will tell you more about the characters in the au however when i was typing this out it got really long so. i’ll put it under a readmore hehe

the name of the au is monthly girls’ sangonomiya-san because kokomi is nozaki and lumine is sakura. kokolumi ftw (just started considering kokolumi as a ship like two months ago when i first started thinking abt this au)

anyway sangonomiya kokomi is a quiet highschool girl who secretly writes manga under the penname sango-sensei. her current project is called Heart-pounding! Love and Magic Time and it is set in a fantasy world where theres a rebellion against an oppressive regime and the main leads are a doggirl (hina) and a catboy (muuzuki. mew-zuki…) and they fall in love. so the plot is still mostly typical shoujo manga stuff it’s just that every so often kokomi will throw in detailed analyses of classic war strategies or philosophical musings on the ethics of propaganda or smth

lumine is kokomi’s classmate who had a big crush on her and decided to try and confess her feelings to her, except she messed up and kokomi thought she wanted to help with her manga, and the rest is history

gorou as mikoshiba…he’s the captain of the archery club and has a lot of admirers and he would be so cool were it not for the fact that he gets flustered sooo easily. he’s been kokomi’s manga assistant for some time now but somehow never noticed that she’s basing her heroine’s personality on him

arataki itto is seo except even more oblivious. he is still in the glee club and they call him “the glee club’s angel of music”. he lives with his grandma and his childhood friend kuki shinobu, who goes to a different school but works at a cafe where kokomi and friends sometimes go to talk about manga things. ofc shinobu has no context for any of their conversations ever

yoimiya as kashima ..not sure she’d be as “princely” as kashima but yoimiya’s so pretty and lively and always seems to know the right thing to say to a girl to make her day.. so yeah shes still the girlcrush of the school and the drama club star

kujou sara is hori. she is so tired of yoimiya getting distracted talking to girls in the hallways instead of showing up to drama club practice on time. she wanted to quit and join the archery club at one point but she stayed on as the drama club president because of yoimiya (but she will never tell her this). she’s kokomi’s background assistant so she’s spent enough time around her to know that beneath her quiet, ladylike demeanor, sangonomiya kokomi is a dumbass

thoma is wakamatsu, he’s one of the newer players on the basketball team and he’s a nice guy but a little naive. he got tired of itto showing up to “help” the team practice (the captain says itto helps them learn how to deal with “unpredictable” opponents) and thought that maybe he could get itto to be a better team player and less annoying. except of course itto thinks thoma just really wants to be friends. now thoma is stuck dealing with him all the time. oh, if only itto could be less boisterous and more considerate, like the glee club’s angel of music…surely someone like that would have a personality as gentle and angelic as his singing voice, right?

kamisato ayato is kokomi’s editor who shows up at her apartment in a hoodie and sweatpants to collect her manuscripts and then leaves usually without saying more than ten sentences. kokomi appreciates him greatly. kamisato is so professional. so punctual. so reliable. definitely a huge upgrade from her previous editor, Nightmare Editor Yae Miko, who kept suggesting ideas that were either incredibly simple or incredibly stupid and trying to get kokomi to put kitsune plushies on every page. to this day kokomi isn’t sure if yae actually read any of her manuscripts or not

kazuha as mayu.. kazuha is kokomi’s cousin who grew up in the same house as her so bascially he’s like a little brother to her. he’s a bit spacey and either speaks in flowery, poetic language or just doesn’t speak much at all. he spends a lot of time sleeping or staring into space because he’s saving his energy for kendo club

aether is lumine’s twin brother who goes to a different school than lumine. sometimes he wonders about his sister and her friends from school, especially that girl she mentioned having a crush on. he visited lumine’s school once and left even more confused than he was before he arrived

[gloamingbloom]

So it’s been a couple of days since I posted one of my KND playlists, sorry about that. Here’s the one I have for Kuki, the kind of music she would be into seemed pretty obvious to me, a lot of fun pop music as well as JPop and KPop. Admittedly I don’t know a whole lot about Japanese and Korean pop music so I just tried to find bands that were popular and who had the kind of sound that she would like. I also put some anime themes, specifically the themes for Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura since I think that she’d love the magical girl genre

  Miyano:  "I am really glad to play Tsukiyama again. I myself was so happy to meet Tsukiyma-san and to have many feelings together. And I also met with an enormous response from the people who watched the series. I have already read the following story of the manga, I am so excited now because I have found many scenes I want to play. I'll do my best with my whole heart to bring joys to everyone. We would gladly accept all your support!"

      Kobayashi: "Since when I read the manga, I have been fascinated by Kanae von Rosewald-san's way

of life, character, and complex and deep emotions, which made me so heartbroken. I was impressed by

her attitude to keep fighting with her emotional conflict inside and to protect her precious things. So I

am very thankful for this opportunity to play Kanae-san. At the same time, it makes me feel very tense

and uptight. I'll try my best to portray the character. So please support us."
