#but xingqiu was always kind of... i guess you can say... the one i looked at FIRST and went

[tenebriism]

I think Xingqiu would benefit a lot from a good hug. A nice, warm, GENUINE hug from someone he trusts and can be himself around ( which, that list of people is, tragically, limited to a select few, but they exist ). He seems to get wrapped up in his thoughts a lot, and they’re certainly not ALL about the texts he gets so immersed in. He’s a classic, saddening case of What His Family Wants vs. What HE Wants, and he’s a lot sadder, on most days, than he lets on.

Yeah. A nice hug would do him wonders, and maybe, even, an opportunity to just sit down and go on, and on, and on about all the things he’s read about without the fear he’ll be told they’re nothing but fictional, immature works. 

u w u Only soft HCs for the youngins. No naughtiness.

๑ [ 20 ] 'veronica open the door' level kinda crazy 

tw: a creep | wc: 1k  if you haven’t read the note from the last update, pls do

the last one to arrive was surprisingly xiangling herself, mere minutes after hu tao had arrived. xingqiu and you arrived together after running into each other in the library.

"but it doesn't count!" xiangling slams her bag down the table as hu tao grins at her. "my professor dismissed us late!"

"but there weren't any conditions," xingqiu replies. "you simply said, 'late comer pays for everything'."

"ha! well, this is my dad's restaurant. he won't make me pay a single cent!" she huffs triumphantly before sitting herself across from you. as if on cue, one of the waiters arrived at your table, setting your orders on the table — xingqiu ordered for xiangling, you ordered for hu tao.

"uhm, ms. xiangling, your dad said this'll be 2,000 mora in total and that if you don't pay, you can help the staff wash the dishes."

"EXCUSE ME?"

long story short, xiangling was grumbling as she marched her way to the cashier and pulled out some cash. hu tao, who sat in front of xingqiu, off-handedly comments, "it's just 2,000 mora, not like we made her pay funeral fees," in which both you and xingqiu gave her an odd look.

"so what's got you all freaked out last night."

you can't help but find it amusing, so you let a small chuckle. "well, i have an ex. his name is haruki. i dated him for a short while when me and hu tao first came here. he lived on the floor below us, and was a kind neighbor –"

"at first."

you nod at hu tao as an acknowledgement.

"at first. he was a great boyfriend. almost too good to be true. he's sweet and he always puts me first over everything. but it didn't take long for it to get overbearing, for it to feel like he sees me more as an object he owns rather than a girlfriend. long story short, he got really possessive and he always lost his mind whenever i go out with friends. he particularly hated hu tao a lot. it wasn't only until he asked me not to be friends with her anymore did i finally snap.

i broke up with him and i made sure i was in a public place so he couldn't do anything about it. surprisingly, he let me off quite easily but even then i can still feel his presence, if you get what i mean…"

you catch a glance at xiangling, who looks like all the gears in her head are turning as her brows furrow. "his presence… you mean he was stalking you?"

"yeah, pretty much."

hu tao licked her lips before talking with a tone as bitter as the coffee she drinks. "we tried reporting it, but police say we don't have tangible evidence, that staring is harmless, that yn might have given him the wrong idea. the best they could offer was a restraining order… and you know how that ends up."

you sigh aloud, suddenly feeling the weight on the world on your shoulders as your heart constricts. you feel stuffy and you can't breathe.

"i'm sorry… i'm – this must be so heavy to tell you guys – i just realized that now, we can stop if you want –"

"yn." you've never seen xiangling look as serious as she did now. "we're here to become aware of the situation, to make sure this bastard never even breathes in the same building as you. don't say sorry, okay?"

you feel warmth radiating on the back of your hand and you look down to see xingqiu's hand atop your own.

you nod, slowly, before shooting both your friends a teary but appreciative smile. you take a steady breath to calm your fast-beating heart down.

"he was… from what i remember he still ended up in jail anyway but for a whole different reason. i forgot why but he was in prison for a year or two, and now he's out, i guess. i didn't want to think it was him, back when i felt uncomfortable sitting in my own car that night of the meeting but it was such a familiar feeling that i got so scared, i was lucky i didn't get into any accidents on the way to the dorms. i wanted to think i was being paranoid but…"

you pulled out his texts, placing them down the table.

"oh, so he's 'veronica open the door' level kinda crazy."

you don't know whether to laugh or to cringe but what came out your lips definitely didn't sound like a laugh.

"look what you did!" xingqiu exclaims, xiangling lets out a pained groaned. he must've kicked her underneath the table. "the joke wasn't funny, stupid! this isn't anime tiktok! this is real life!"

hu tao clears her throat, which effectively silences the table in order for you to speak again. you reach forward to pocket your phone.

"the only ones who knew about haruki are hu tao and xiao. xiao because… while we were still in our getting to know stage, i was still kinda suffering from the trauma. he was super understanding, surprisingly and he knew what to do. so yeah, xiao would –"

"that fucker is the only one who can calm her down from a panic attack. i never could for some reason, even if xiao taught me how he does it," hu tao grumbles as she crosses her arms, obviously not too keen on the information she shared. "to think i found that sweet. look at that motherfucker now."

you nodded along silently, reminiscing on the times he'd hold your hand and guide it to his beating heart. the gentleness of his other hand as he held your cheek, urging your eyes to meet his. his eyes – oh, his eyes. how soft and reassuring it was that you knew, you just knew, that with him around, no danger will ever get to you.

you see a flash of pink.

a shade of pink that haunts your nightmares and robs you off sleep for days, too scared to shut your eyes in fear you'll see him in your dreams but this time you'll never wake up –

too bad xiao isn't here, huh?

haruki stands across the street with a smile that couldn't mean any good. condescending eyes dead set on your shivering figure. he was moving his lips the moment he realized he's caught your attention.

what he says sent shivers down your spine and made you call 911. distantly, you hear your friends asking what was wrong.

did you miss me, yn?

GOOD 4 U » previous : masterlist : next

๑ summary — lesson learned! never challenge hu tao when you're drunk bc you'll just lose and now you have to post a thread of all your exes as songs from olivia rodrigo's hit debut album sour … or: "yn desperate much!" "yn still loves xiao? yikes! doesn't he already have someone new?" "stop ruining my relationship u bitch!"

"Hey, Chongyun, do like doing whatever you're doing?" you ask, balancing the flat side of a pencil on your upper lip. He tears his eyes away from a book he was invested in, focusing his attention to you

"Exorcism, I mean."

"Of course," he plainly answers without hesitation, a bit confused as to why you suddenly brought it up. You look at him skeptically from the side of your eyes before placing the pencil down on the table. "Are you sure you aren't saying that because your family is consisted of exorcist?" you say, "I mean, if my line of family were full of exorcist, I might feel a bit burdened and pressured.. Feeling as if I have no other choice but to carry out the family name.."

He takes your thoughts into consideration, agreeing that it does sound reasonable. "I understand what you are saying, but believe me, being an exorcist is what I love doing," he reassures, and you, not wanting to push the topic further, let it go at that, enjoying another comfortable silence under the setting sun the shone through the windows of the living room.

Chongyun has been visiting you frequently for the past week that him being there wasn't a bother to you now. Well, it didn't bother you at all, it was just that your heart couldn't handle itself whenever he was around; you shyly admit that you have a small crush on the exorcist.

"Oh, right, I--" Just as you were speaking, the front door burst open, causing you and Chongyun to be startled and look over the sofa, seeing another bluenette stepping inside. "Xingqiu, you can't just barge into someone's house like that!" you shout, fuming with a slight anger. "And you'll break the door!"

Xingqiu stood there, looking a bit clueless as if he totally forgot why he came to your house. "Hey, Xingqiu, what are you doing here?" Chongyun ask, setting down the book to the space beside him and stood up, facing the other male. "Chongyun, so you're here again, huh?" Xingqiu asks, not even bothering to greet either the two of you. His eyes started to wander around the place, looking quite worried and something else that you couldn't quite place your fingers on.

"Not going to greet us politely, huh?" you commented with a bored expression. Chongyun stares at you then back to Xingqiu. "Hey, wanna take this outside?" he asks, snapping Xingqui out from his daze. "Oh, right, is.." Xingqiu trails, not wanting to say anything further, eyes hiding something deep within their colours that was covered with great anxiousness.

Chongyun nods silently. "Yeah, it's okay," he says and then turns to you. "Ill be right back, (Y/N)." You nodded quietly, a bit concerned for the bookworm as he looks your way, yet not say anything. He looked out of it and you planned to ask Chongyun once he comes back.

The two males went outside, closing the door behind as they leave. You strain your ears to eavesdrop on their conversation, but the door muffled out clear words, so you gave up, slouching into the seat.

It took no more than 10 minutes for them to chat outside before Xingqiu leaves the premises and Chongyun returning back inside. However, Xingqiu looked somewhat panicked with eyes filled of worry and the other element that you couldn't quite pinpoint. "What were you guys talking about? Xingqiu looked a bit off," you say, eyes following the bluenette back to his spot beside you.

"It's nothing.. Xingqiu has just been having nightmares, is all," he hesitantly says, eyes not looking your way as he utters so. You were quite surprised. Xingqiu? Having nightmares? That was truly new and quite something to tease him about-- but that was something you won't do, since it was something concerning if he looked the way he did.

"Oh, it's getting late," Chongyun comments, looking out the window behind you. "Should I cook you something to eat before I leave?" You shook your head, "The snacks from earlier kind of spoiled my appetite for tonight. I'll see you tomorrow."

He nods and bid you a good night before exiting your house.

You stayed in the living room for a while then cleaned up any mess and locked the front door before going to your room and changing into your sleepwear.

Letting out a tired sigh, you sunk under the warmth of your comforters, burying your face into one of the pillows. No matter how tired you may be, your thoughts did it's usual thing- wandering around aimlessly and thinking whatever it wants to, which brought you to Chongyun.

It was something you think about each night and it never fails to make your heart squeal. You had been picking up unusual behaviours from him throughout the week such as accompanying you everywhere-- be it to your kitchen or outside the streets of Liyue. It kind of made you more confident about confessing to him.

Someday, you'll confess, you thought to yourself and drifted off to sleep, dreaming a happy dream of the potential future if he does happen to reciprocate your feelings.

When the sun shone through your curtains, Chongyun was already at your door, waiting for you to open the door. "Good morning, did you already have breakfast?" Chongyun greets. "Not yet," you answered and move out of the way to let him in.

"I'll go make something for you right now," Chongyun says, giving you one look before heading to the kitchen where you watch him make breakfast for the both of you. It was unnatural at first, but with the amount of persistence, you allowed Chongyun to make breakfast for you each day.

"Thank you for the meal," you say and took your chopsticks, taking a bite before complimenting his skills.

It was a quiet morning, both of you enjoying breakfast. Then, "Say, (Y/N), is there something you want to do before you die?" Chongyun suddenly asks. You look away from your bowl and look at him curiously, though his gaze was on his bowl. "That's out of the blue.." you comment, chuckling a bit.

He places his chopsticks down and closed his eyes, sighing. "Well, is there?" He looks up at you, revealing his cat-like eyes. At that, you knew he wasn't going to let you change topics, not that you have anything else to talk about, and that it was something that most people suddenly brings up suddenly. "Hm.. I don't think so. I mean, I'm really happy with my life right now and being by yours and Xingqiu's side," you say, taking the topic with much thought.

"You're lying," he affirms, catching you with surprised eyes. "What do you mean?" you ask, quite confused at how strongly he believes his words. "There is not one person who doesn't have at least one thing that they want to have or want to do before they die," he expresses.

You weren't sure why he was taking the topic so seriously. He asked you this multiple times before and back then, he just hums in response. But since he pushed the topic on, you have no other choice but to think it thoroughly.

You thought about things that you used to want to do, but they were sooner or later fulfilled. Then, your reoccurring fantasy popped into your head as stealthily as it could: Chongyun reciprocating your feelings. You guessed that it was the only thing left to do in this world-- maybe going on adventures with him as a couple.

Knowing this, your face flushes red-- the same colour when Chongyun accidentally ate something spicy to make him hot. "Hm? (Y/N)?" Chongyun stares at you quizically. "Well, did you figure it out?"

"Oh, ah, uhm.. I-- It's nothing!" you stutter, averting your eyes from him and chuckling awkwardly. Did he possibly know and that's why he was asking? You didn't know. "Can you tell--" You caught him off. "Ah, why are you being so pushy today, hm? Do you want me to say something specific?" you ask. Seeing your sudden burst, Chongyun decided to leave it at that, returning the atmosphere to the comfortable silence to help you relax and forget about what he asked.

"Hey, Chongyun, you haven't been doing any exorcism at all these past few days-- what's up with that?" you brought up, now located in the living room where both of you spend most of the day away doing whatever pops inside your head. "Ah, I just have much free time, is all," he answers, sounding as if he predicted you'd question him about it sooner or later.

"Really? Well, I heard that there was a ghost that's been haunting an old lady's place and many other series of hauntings.." Upon hearing your own words, you gasped. "Wait, could Xingqui's nightmare be linked to this?" You turn your upper body to face the male.

"Oh, uh, I guess..?" Chongyun says and shrugs, not knowing what else to say. You crossed your arms, mentally patting yourself. It was silence after that, doing your own thing as Chongyun does his.

"Hey, you wanna go somewhere?" Chongyun asks, getting your attention. "Sure? Where do you want to go?" You look at him, eyes following up as he stands up. "You'll find out," is all he said and you had no other choice but to follow.

Out on the streets, you both bumped into Xingqui, who looked quite sleep deprived, looking down at the grown below him. "Hey, have you been crying?" was the first thing you say, seeing redness around his eyes. You went to put a hand on his arm, but he flinched when you did so.

He looks up. "Oh, hey.." he greets tiredly. "Xingqiu, are you okay?" Chongyun ask, visibly concerned for his best friend.

Xingqiu was quiet for a while, looking hesitant to speak. "Chongyun, when will you finally do it? I can't stand this any longer and knowing that you're always going there is driving me insane!" He harshly grabs Chongyun shoulders.

"Calm down, Xingqiu." You put a hand on his shoulders, feeling him stiffen for a quick second before letting go of Chongyun. Xingqiu did not act the way he used to be and it worried both you and Chongyun.

The hydro male took a breather, both of you allowing him to do so. Then, "When will you let go?" he whispers, his tone breaking.

Your heart tightened. You did not know what was happening with Xingqiu, but it hurt you seeing him looking like a mess. He wasn't his usual self.

You looked over to the icy male, eyes filled with worried. He looks at you, eyes also filled with the same emotion, yet hiding something else within it.

Sighing, Chongyun spoke, "Come with me, Xingqiu, and you too, (Y/N)." You nodded, and followed, looking over to Xingqiu every now and then whose head was down, hiding the emotions swirling in his eyes.

Soon, the three of you returned to your house. You were confused, but didn't say anything and letting Chongyun speak. "(Y/N), you like me, don't you?" Chongyun suddenly ask, back facing you as his front faces your house.

The air in you felt as if it was punched out. "How did you.." You couldn't finish it. How did he figure it out? Did Xingqiu tell him? You did tell Xingqiu your feelings for the exorcist, but to think he betrayed you? You turn to the traitor. "Xingqiu--" You were cut off. "It's useless, (Y/N).." Chongyun gave a heavy sigh.

"He can't hear you."

You were confused. What did he mean? "(Y/N), I am going to guess the one thing you want before you die.." Chongyun says. "You like me and want to confess your feelings, right? It'll feel much heavy if you don't." He didn't directly answer your question, but he was getting there.

"Yesterday, Xingqiu told me about it and I guess that is the one thing you want to do or else you can't rest."

"(Y/N), do you know why I kept visiting you?" Chongyun asks. You, however, couldn't give a reply, too confused to see where he was getting at. "I was trying to exorcise you."

"What do you mean by that, Chongyun? I don't understand," you say. First, Xingqiu can't hear you and second, he is trying to exercise you? It was confusing and it would be understandable.. For other restless spirits.

Chongyun turns his body to face you, however, his head was the same a Xingqiu's; head facing down. "(Y/N), you're dead."

Your heart dropped to the pit of your stomach upon hearing it. It sounded absolutely absurd and you didn't believe it.

Quickly, you turn to Xingqiu and grabbed him by his shoulders, tears threatening to fall. However, when you made contact with him, he flinches. "Hey, Xingqiu, don't play with me right now!" you raise your voice that would be loud to annoy him to break this little prank, but he just stares at you-- or rather, looking your way with a sadded expression but not really at you.

".. Hey, Chongyun, they're in front of me, aren't they?" Xingqiu ask, cracking a sad smile as tears start to trickle his face. Chongyun nods silently.

Knowing this, Xingqiu continues. "(Y/N), I can't hear you or see you.. But let me apologise.. I'm sorry.. It's my fault that you.. Died," he says. "If we hadn't gone to that cliff after it rained, I would still be able to talk with you."

It took a while to understand and recall what he was saying, but the locked memory- the last puzzle to understanding everything- returned to you. That day, you had slipped and fallen, and because at how sudden it was, you panicked and was unable to spread your glider, leading to your death.

Xingqiu has been recuperating from the horror and guilt, having nightmares of the scene he had witnessed that day.

Chongyun was the one to find your spirit bounded to your house and the streets of Liyue being an exorcist and all, so he took it upon himself to make sure you rest in peace. However, since you weren't aware you were dead, it made it difficult for him to make that happen. So, he hung around you, sneakily exercising you when you two hung out in your house.

Tears fall down on the side of your face, now having memory of it, and turned to Chongyun who looked at you with sadness.

Sadness. That was the one emotion you couldn't figure out.

"I.. I'm really sorry, (Y/N)," Chongyun spoke softly, looking at you. "I don't want you to go, but as an exorcist.. And to relieve Xingqui's nightmares.. I, I have no other choice."

"But before you go, I want you to know that I've always liked you.. I was.. Hoping to tell you how I felt, but I guess I can't now," voice breaking as he confesses.

"No.. I, I don't want to go!" you shout and clung onto his shoulders. "I'm not going, I'm not going!" More tears fell faster than it did before as you pleaded to stay.

He places his hands on your shoulders, tears of his own trickling down his face. "Please, wait for me in the next life," he says.

The reason why Chongyun excels than that of other exorcist was because of his energy, and that was something you knew. And so, a stubborn and tireless spirit such as yourself was nothing for him once he got you to awaken and face what was to be your eternal rest.

"Sweet dreams."

Part 9

Silently, I sat on the bed, dangling my legs.

"And this photo is real?" Astonished, he glanced at the photo again. I flopped back on his bed and looked up at the ceiling. "Yes, it is. I just discovered it a few days ago when my mother was browsing through the album."

"That kind of thing is amazing! Then it means you've met him before!" Bennett then looked at Razor. "That must be fate then!"

"That's what I think, too. But how did you recognize him?" They both looked to me now. I hadn't explained that yet. I was at Xingqiu‘s place. And in his photo, they were wearing the exact same thing. So I'm absolutely sure."

Bennett pressed the photo to himself. "How exciting! You're meant for each other! Ah, does he know that yet? Well, about this photo..."

"No."

"Huh?"

I sat back up and looked at him. "I've resolved not to tell him about it for now. I'll save it for later..." He handed me the photo again. I kept it in my small purse.

"For later today? Or much, much later?" I don't think our bowling night tonight would be the right time for that either. I have to admit that something tells me not to show Xingqiu the photo for now.

"Maybe much, much later." I gave with a smile.

"We won't say a word! You can count on that."

"Thanks for keeping it to yourselves for now." I then looked over at Razor, who was sitting at his computer. He seemed to be busy typing. Curious, I walked up next to him and looked at the screen. "Are you chatting?" Razor spent most of his time chatting with others about his passion for writing about animals. Especially about wolves as well as costumes.

"Today it's interesting again. I met new people."

"Razor is more talkative online. Even though it's hard to believe." Bennett tried to stifle a laugh. In response, he got a friendly pat on the shoulder from Razor.

"But it's unbearable at night. The screen is way too bright..I can't sleep like this!" Sighed Bennett, putting his hands on his hips.

Must be hard when you share a room.

"And you type loudly..." Murmured Razor.

"You guys have it great...having your own computer. I only get to use my dad's computer when I need something for school." I have to admit that I was a tiny bit envious. Almost everyone has a cell phone or a PC!

Razor turned his swivel chair away from the desk a bit. "Do you want to try writing something?"

"I can?!" Gladly! I've always wanted to chat on a device like that. At the time, I did it with my cell phone (which actually used to belong to my father). But because the bill was once too high and he found me suspicious he confiscated the cell phone. Since then I got change for phone booths, should I be in an emergency. I guess that's what I got for smiling while writing. I guess he thought I was writing with a boy or something.

He wasn't wrong about that...I shamelessly confess. Guilty!

He got up from the swivel chair and I took a seat. Now they both showed me where I could click.

"On this symbol..exactly! This person seems to be available. Click on the bottom bar and you can text him." Bennett explained to me.

I didn't know what to write. So I wanted to start with a smalltalk. A hello and how the person is doing should be a start, right?

I looked at the keyboard and searched for the letters.

Okay and where is letter W..aha, here! Wait, where was Y again? Now I mistyped.

"(Name)..how often does your dad let you use his computer?" Bennett asked me confused.

"Rarely..why?"

"Just wondering."

I finally sent the message. Razor showed me that I could still send effects, or smileys. I was a bit taken aback by the effects. However, he immediately took over the keyboard and typed quickly as I clicked several times on the hearts effects or the ones with kisses.

Bennett almost fell over laughing. Razor had to explain to his chat partner that it was definitely NOT him who sent those embarrassing love messages. I thought it was brilliant, by the way. Maybe in the future I'll get to use the Pc for something other than homework!

"It's almost time for us to meet! Shall we ride our bikes?" Suggested Bennett. We're almost too late for bowling! Xingqiu and Chongyun shouldn't wait too long for us.

"I didn't bring my bike today..." I said with a grin. However, the two of them suggested that I can sit on the luggage rack. As long as no one catches us, that won't be a problem.

As we sped out, we greeted the other roommates at the home. However, we didn't have time to talk.

Immediately the two of them grabbed their bikes and Bennett offered me his seat as Razor steadied his bike chain once again. I hopped on and immediately clung to him as he rode off.

The cool wind blew my my clothes and I made sure my bag didn't slip off my shoulder. Then I had to think about the photo again. I haven't really let it go since and asked my mom if I could have it. On one condition: Don't lose it! Otherwise, yes, I would be allowed.

You see, I first met Xingqiu in the 5th grade. He transferred from a private school to ours at that time. But we were not very close. Rather, quite the opposite.

We really became friends a little later. It's a long story. Yes, yes. I'll tell it later.

I didn't really like him until the eighth grade. And I was totally in love with him in the 10th grade. Almost at the end of 10th grade. That's when it started, that I really wanted to stay close to him. And at the same time, not because it was driving me crazy. Suddenly, I loved just about everything about him..okay, not everything. But maybe you know what I mean. And when he did things just for me like recommend books, leave quotes in books as notes or that we study together. That made me happy as punch!

Especially when sometimes he would put his hand on my shoulder and smile at me. Sometimes he even gave me a quick squeeze.

At first I thought he was just doing it as a friend.

Until it was pointed out to me that I was the only one with whom Xingqiu held such physical contact. I didn't want to believe that at the time.

Then he even pressed me against him a few times laughing, putting an arm around my waist. However, I put an arm around his neck like a buddy in response. (Xingqiu told me back when we became a couple that he often had to suppress a hopeless sigh at such moments. After all, he was trying to give me clear signs.)

And there were moments when he would listen to me smiling and resting his chin on his hand. I thought that he was really quite interested in my stories. Even the recommended books were romance novels, I just remembered. Oh man, I really was a dense one.

I sighed softly and looked at the roads. We passed a couple of fast food restaurants with blinding display boards. Soon we should be there. I was interrupted from my daydreaming, however, when Bennett went over a ramp too fast, causing us to jump up briefly in our seats.

"Geez, Bennett! You can't treat a lady like me like that. I was dreaming..." I looked to the side, playfully offended. „Sorry! That's right, I should have been paying more attention!" I shook my head laughing and put a hand on his shoulder for reassurance. "I was just kidding."

"Ahaha, well if that's the case! After all, that's no way to treat you!" He looked to the side for a moment. "I wouldn't do that on purpose, since..." The last part of the sentence was unintelligible because a truck was passing us.

He didn't repeat the part. I assumed I just imagined it and looked toward a restaurant we were passing. Razor was in sight in front of it.

I could have sworn he glanced briefly at Bennett with an unspeakable look. Maybe a hint of surprised. In response, Bennett seemed a little tense. But I didn't peck and surveyed the sky as I continued to cling to him.

We arrived in a few minutes. Good thing the other two arrived at the same moment. Chongyun briefly threw the stem of his popsicle into the trash can. Actually, he had hesitated to come along. But afterwards he agreed because he had trained a lot against his yang problem and he didn't want it to be forgotten. He prepared well for today.

"It's nice that we all meet again! Did the three of you come here together?" Asked Xingqiu as we all gathered together.

"Yup! With the bicycles. No policeman caught me by the rack of the bike!" Said I with pride.

"I didn't crash, thankfully..." Bennett scratched the back of his head with a smile.

"So he was driving you...?" Xingqiu looked at me. For a second, I was confused about his question. Was that a bad thing...?

"Then I hope you had fun in the childrens seat~" W-what?!

Everyone laughed as I looked at Xingqiu in offense. He just grinned like that. "Hey, I don't need one of those!"

I crossed my arms as we walked into the bowling center, ignoring his apologies as a joke. I wasn't really mad at him.

Luckily, there was a lane open for us and we signed in. It was quite noisy in the center. Some families were playing together, and some lanes had young people like us. At the request of the guests, the employee turned on the disco lights.

This will definitely lift the mood with the music in the background. I usually went bowling during the day and didn't get to see this view. This was something completely different!

"All right. Wanna bet on something?" Suggested Xingqiu.

I looked to him and grinned. Interesting.

"As usual? Ehm..I'll be out of there quickly!" Oh dear, Chongyun still seemed traumatized from before. He had the fewest points in the last bowling night and the winner got to determine what the loser had to do.

Xingqiu was the winner.

And what you should know is..he gets the weirdest ideas.

"Come on, Yunyun. Who says I'm going to win this night?"

"You seem pretty shear and that's a warning sign..."

I shook my head. Maybe I should take a crack at this before it degenerated into a discussion.

"Okay guys. New rule: no trips to the women's underwear section for the boys." Everyone except Xingqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's no fun like that!"

"No way, Xingqiu. Come up with something else!" He gave up and so the matter ate itself. Now the future losers have one less thing to worry about.

"Thanks (Name). At least he listens to you." Bennett whispered to me. We laughed quietly together. "I'd rather spare you this. Even though I think it's funny."

I wonder if Xingqiu isn't afraid of losing a bet. He would have dug his own grave....

I looked at the bullets. All right. This time I will be able to carry a difficult one! I specially trained my arms for this by carrying our 5kg rice bags at home each time. My family may have thought I was stupid, but it made sense to me. Let's see if my training paid off!

Chongyun looked at me and smiled nervously. "Are you sure you can carry this bowling ball? Maybe you could go three sizes lighter..."

I watched as he and Bennett easily carried one of the most difficult bowling balls with one hand.

"Woah...what's wrong with you guys? Have you guys been working out too? So strong!"

"Ahah... for my Yang Energy, I've been physically training, too." Chongyun said, scratching the back of his head. They both looked down at me laughing.

And they seemed to have grown another inch too.... not only in muscles.

Razor put a hand on my head. "Eat a lot of meat. Then you'll grow." He was probably just trying to comfort me. After all, he knows very well that genes play a big role. "It's okay, I'll leave my plate empty..." Without arguing, I took a lighter ball. I might end up trying a slightly more difficult one- right! I'll warm up my arms first.

Everyone picked a ball and the first player was Razor, our wolf boy.

And it wasn't a hit. Quite the opposite.

"Razor, you're babying the ball!" Sighed Bennett. However, we got no response from Razor.

He stared into the air and then closed his eyes. "My friends are calling me."

..?

Next came Xingqiu. He was surprisingly quiet for the last few minutes. He muttered something to himself and then tried his luck.

A strike!

We cheered him on until we remembered we had a bet coming up. Xingqiu looked over his shoulder at us. At first he looked innocent.

Then grinned at us once, slightly sadistically.

"I told you we should form a Xingqiu victim alliance..." Whispered Chongyun to me and I swallowed hard once.

I don't know why, but somehow I got a feeling that Xingqiu looked irritated. But of course, it's hard to tell with him.

He was way too quiet.

Chongyun was next and stood there for a while, petrified. Should we get him some ice cubes?

When it was Bennett's turn, he almost threw the ball in our direction. Fortunately, we all dodged it.

He didn't hit a single cone.

When it was my turn, I picked up the pink ball. This time I have to win...

"You can do it, (Name)!"

"Don't be shy!"

"Yes. We believe in you." We all looked confused at Xingqiu, who smiled calmly at me. Uh..

He's definitely irritated.

H-Have I done something wrong!?

Just don't lose focus, (Name)....

I caught up for a moment and packed all my faith into that ball. Then I swung the ball into the track.

It sped straight ahead and... just before the last second, it slammed into the side as if by magic. It was a gutter. But how?!

Nobody could explain it. Even on the second try, the same thing happened.

"Ahh, it's my fault! My bad luck is acting up like crazy again..."

"Nonsense Bennett. I just need a few tries!" That's right, I haven't bowled in a while.

We all played a couple of times and it was clear who was in the lead

Xingqiu was in lead. But then it was me. Everyone seemed to be pinning their hopes on me. I didn't think they would be so afraid of Xingqiu today. He told us that he hadn't thought of anything yet, but I know that's a lie!

I just remembered that I haven't thought of anything should I win. Probably a trip to the flea market on their dime or a whole week's supply of cotton candy just for me. We'll see what I decide on.

But first we all got something to drink because we were getting thirsty after a couple rounds. We took our soda and sat down to the table. The game is paused until then.

I took a sip and watched a group of college students hanging out at the billiard table for a while. Two of them were chilling on the terrace next door while smoking, only three of them seemed to be concentrating at the pool table and one was drinking a can of Fanta in the corner. I think it was Fanta?

It was pretty quiet among them and I wondered if we would hang out the same way in the future.

We were mostly hyper as a group. Maybe because we were still in school? However, these students don't really seem much older than us.

I put my glass on the table and felt my bag once. Then I took a quick look inside. Good thing I didn't lose the photo. Misplaced in nowhere was definitely not something I wanted!

"Are you hiding something?" Xingqiu moved closer to me. It was probably too noticeable that I kept looking in the bag. "I..uh..I just don't want to lose my new lipstick!" Okay, now that sounded stupid.

"Lipstick, huh?" He tried not to laugh. But at least he won't find out about the photo. For the first one, anyway. Then he turned back to the others and they chatted about the latest spy movie.

I took advantage of the moment briefly to go to the bathroom. The music could still be heard, but only very lightly

As I flushed the toilet, I heard a pair of girls enter the room and turn on the faucet.

"I thought you were going to spend the night at my place."

"Now don't be like that! He's off early tonight. I'll come visit you tomorrow, okay?"

"Tell me everything then, will you?" I heard a slight thump and then laughter.

"Yeaah, the next day you'll hear about a corpse."

They then left the room. Confused, I pulled up my panties and straightened my dress neatly.

I opened the door slightly and peeked out a bit to make sure the coast was clear. I then raised an eyebrow.

I washed my hands. Corpse? Weird girls...

The guys still seemed to be talking about the Spy movie. But I was eager to spill the beans about what I'd just heard.

"You guys have no idea what happened in the ladies' room!" I started and looked at them.

They all looked to me.

"Ehm, (Name)..I think yes?" Gave Chongyun blushing.

"Not that! Two girls were talking about a dead body..That was a scene like the horror movie we watched back then."

"You don't have to be scared. I'm sure it was just a joke." Said Xingqiu, shrugging his shoulders with a smile. T-That's not what I believed after all....

"Now that you mention it...isn't Mr. Tartaglia suspicious?" Bennett asked. He had mentioned then hearing the word "corpse" come out of his mouth. Since then, he seemed a little afraid of Mr. Tartaglia.

"Come to think of it..." Chongyun muttered thoughtfully. "He's pretty athletic too isn't he? And always that grin..it gives me the creeps.

Now Razor spoke up. "I heard he likes pain." Everyone below was silent. Razor would never fib.

"Of course he does. He eats steel without milk for breakfast and trains nine days a week..." Xingqiu stifled a laugh. Seriously. Did this boy ever feel fear?

But then he started a new topic . "You should be more afraid for our principal Zhongli . I've seen the photos from a couple of years ago and this gentleman doesn't seem to age."

"Huh? My aunt said that he also taught in her time when she was very young."

No one could say anything about Chongyun's statement. Finally, we were speechless. How old is she again...?

"Maybe he and Mr. Tartaglia are spies.."

We all decided to watch these two men now. They were clearly very suspicious.

"Maybe we should keep playing...?" Bennett suggested. Yes, we really should. Enough with scary stories.

We almost finished the last round.

Bennett had almost hit us with the bowling ball again and Chongyun we had to get extra ice cubes. The music was definitely too loud for him. But kudos to him for sticking it out for so long today.

And you might not have thought it, but the winner today was me!

I ended up with two strikes in a row, knocking Xingqiu off his throne.

"What a shame! I would have loved to see you in dresses..." Sighed Xingqiu. That's right..there was no ban on clothes after all.

The other guys looked distraught at him. They must have felt really relieved that I won.

I still had to decide whether I wanted a visit to the flea market or a week's supply of cotton candy.

We ended up cleaning up and paying before heading out. And no, I didn't carry a heavy ball that night. Maybe next time I'll lift more rice packs.

Everyone seemed to have biked here. Except me. Xingqiu offered to give me a ride home. It was almost dark and I wouldn't say no to that.

We were all still talking in circles because it was a great evening. It was a shame that it was over now. We all missed it. But also not too late we should arrive home. At some point we had to say goodbye.

I sat on Xingqiu's baggage rack and he began to ride. Now the two of us were alone. I didn't know how to start a conversation with him. I still felt like he was irritable. I looked at him. Only his hair was blowing slightly and his earring was dangling in front of him.

"You didn't need a child's helper or barrier when you were bowling, did you?"

"Are you going to start that again..." I pouted. "I beat you, so you can get ready for my wishes!" Let him be afraid!

Xingqiu continued calmly. "Let me guess..a supply of cotton candy?"

"W..what..well- no!" How does he know that? Now there's no way it's going to be cotton candy.

"Sounds like you, though. I'll be surprised then. Oh yeah..."

"Yeah?"

"I..I'll work out harder too..get muscles.." He muttered, keeping eye contact with the road. "Besides..I would have driven you too."

I became stunned.

"Xingqiu..have you been jealous all this time?" I asked cautiously. Was that why he was irritated?

"Not me..." He couldn't hide it. He stopped at a traffic light, even though the streets were empty. "Maybe."

I smiled and put my arms around him.I leaned my head against his back. "I like you the way you are." I felt on his body that he seemed less tense. When the light turned green, he drove off again and I continued to snuggle up to him. Memories rose in my mind.

My heart grew warmer. I stroked slow and small circular movements on his back.

They were very beautiful memories of us.

Part 10

[zhongliologist]

Oh my gosh! Visions! Lore!! I hope you don't mind me rambling about visions and the in-game lore, this is my favourite part about the games and I'm very excited that you brought this up XD

I think you might be onto something with the visions! I definitely agree with what you said about each vision being a gift of sorts from each elemental archon to those they seem "worthy". I think Zhongli also mentioned that the reason why there hasn't been any new elecro allogenes was because it was the will of the electro archon? So I guess from there we can kind of surmise that at the very least, the respective elemental archons have some kind of influence on who gets what vision.

That being said though, I've always wondered if each archon tends to favour particular kinds of people, or if they there is a certain criteria to obtain a particular element vision (like maybe they give visions to people who embody a particular value or something). I feel like I've found some common thread between each element vision holder?? These are just my theories thoughh, so I'd love to know what you think!

Starting with what I think is the most obvious, I think the Pyro archon values passion. All of the pyro allogenes have something that they're very very passionate about, be it music, bombs, cooking, or defending their hometown.

(everything goes downhill from here the pyro one is the only one I'm confident about lmao)

For Geo visions, I think the connecting thread is resilience? Diligence, strength, and resilience in the face of adversity. People with wills of rock.

Electro visions, I think are given to those who are protecting something. The only common thread I can find between the electro characters was that they were protecting something or someone when they got their visions (ex: Razor protecting lupical, Fischl protecting her dreams and fantasies). I'm not too sure about this one though XD

Hydro, again, I'm not too sure if it's mastery over something, or if it's clarity? Like these people all have a particular value system or ideology that they live by (ex: chivalry, heal others with music, fight yeah!!), and they will not sway from that and will not hide who they are. It's less passion about a field and more discovery of self, I think.

Cryo took me a long time to figure out (Chongyun kept throwing a wrench in my plans 😭), but I believe the value the tsaritsa looks for is rebellion: People who dare to defy their fate, their origins, their physical conditions, to do what they want. It fits what we know of the Tsaritsa as well, with her (spoilers!) "rebellion against the divine" and what not.

Anemo I cannot figure out. I have tried. I have failed. If you know the answer, please tell me because I just cannot figure it out 😭

But yeah!! These are just my two cents. What do you think? P.S. I'm sorry to make you read so much, I got way too excited. XD Hope you're doing well 💕

Yepp!!! You surmised it well!! I do like the Vision part of the game (i mean more than Celestia's bs lmaooo) bc it's pretty interesting!

I'm gonna discuss this through the characters' traits and not through the archons! This is only my own take tho!

I like to think about Vision elements the same way as astrology does! Since astrology is better studied and you can actually infer some ideas from it!

Let's start from elements that have close qualities!

You're right about Pyro allogenes! They're pretty passionate. They'll stop at nothing to go do what they want. They're pretty brash, sometimes impulsive and impatient. They don't really wanna get told what to do. They have their own thing and you gotta respect it otherwise, you're gonna get burned.

For Geo,, it's sort of similar with Pyro but Geo allogenes are more self disciplined. They also won't stop at nothing to get what they want but they're more patient. They're willing to go through the long haul. They're also more grounded and calm. Patience is the keyword here.

For Cryo, i think Cryo allogenes are those who will do anything to survive. I think Resilient is the word to describe them. They are usually befallen by some sort of misfortune, but they still persevere to go on and live. I think the Tsaritsa respects that sort of drive and bestows Visions to those people.

Now for these two, I am unsure bc the characters are really different and I'm only grasping on straws for these ones.

For Hydro allogenes...to me, it's kind of difficult to say bc we have a variety of characters like Barbara, Mona, Xingqiu and Childe who are definitely not alike. But as I read their character stories, I realized that what these people usually feel like something is missing in their lives. They have the drive to search for that "thing", and often goes through some sort of "coming of age" test. Why do I say this?

Barbara always feels like she's less than her sister Jean. She wants to be like her but doesn't know what to do. Until she finds her purpose after singing for that boy with a high fever until her voice was hoarse.

For Xingqiu, he wanted to be like the martial arts characters he would read in books. As a sheltered kid, he wanted to do something other than ride the coattails of his family's fortune. We aren't sure how he got his Vision but I do think his time with a dwindling Guhua clan was his test.

For Mona, she wanted to be like her master. To see the truth through the stars. Perhaps her test was when her master had died and the burden to carry astrological knowledge and pass it on fell on her shoulders. It also fits if she did inherit her Vision from her master.

For Childe, he wanted to be stronger, like a naive kid who wants to be a hero, but maybe he wasn't supposed to be that twisted? Maybe he's just some adrenaline junkie who got twisted when he fell into the abyss. That was his test tho,,, but i dunno, we're not sure how he got his vision.

Now for Electro allogenes. These ones, I am unsure of the most. I mean....Keqing, Beidou, Fischl, Razor....they're so different. Maybe it's being Unusual and going out of the norm. They usually oppose something or are very, very different in their opinions. Keqing opposes the Archon's control over Liyue. Beidou, against all odds, wanted to defeat the Haishan. Fischl is living in her own world of dreams, and wishes to maintain those dreams even if people find it weird. Razor was basically raised by wolves, and generally do not mingle with society.

For Anemo allogenes...these guys are also very different. And if they're not bound by their element, they could've gone to other elements just by their personalities. Venti is the only one who embodies the free spirit personality. Jean and Xiao both have strong motivations to protect their homes. Sucrose has a voracious appetite to learn and discover. Perhaps Venti is just embodying the free spirit and gives Visions to whoever he wants lmaooo

Maybe Jean and Xiao are people who wish to protect the freedom of the people so they were graned Anemo visions?? I dunno. I'm stumped on this one....

But this is what I think! I feel like I've made a few lore mistakes here and there bc I don't know everything and only went to the wiki ebdbhshs

[limeshcs]

Dating Xingqiu Hcs

warnings: sfw, fluff, teasing,

-One of the best genshin men you could date in my opinion

-Xingqiu is not shy, but instead almost star struck. He’s read so many romance novels and yet it’s almost heart stopping how much more exhilarating it is to experience it in real life.

-He is touchy, but still gentlemen like. But his touches always have that wishful flare that says “are you truly real?“

-Though Xingqiu’s eyes always give away what he’s thinking. Whether it’s wholesome or mischievous. He’ll swear ”hes only admiring how lovely you look” yet his eyes seem to be pleading for your physical attention.

-Any type of physical touch Xingqiu adores. Hes always been touchy, even before he knew his feelings were requited. Nothing over the line of course. Though now that you’re dating that line is pushed more and more. His touch is lingering and soft, almost angelic.

-Loves to play with your hands. Brushing your fingertips with his in adoration. Intertwining your hands when walking through Liyue to visit the bookstore. Simply placing a hand on your body at all times, on your lower back, shoulder, waist, thigh (if allowed to).

-Xingqiu’s need for attention doesn’t just stop at hand holding. Once you indulge him it’s all downhill from there. He’s now reliant on kisses like a life support. Will initiate most of the kissing, but highly encourages you to initiate them just as much. Nothing puts Xingqui on a better high. Makes him feel like he owns the world being on the receiving end.

-A surprisingly good kisser. Loves to kiss you just about anywhere. The inner wrist, your knuckles, cheeks, forehead, lips, shoulder

-Though kissing your pretty hands is a close place to his heart. Makes him feel like your chivalrous shining knight in armor right out of one of his favorite books.

-Your hands are his treasure but your lips.. well how can the two be compared? He savors every taste of your lips, but he loves the moments before just as well. Loves teasing you, and surprising you making you guess when your lips will actually collide.

-Loves just missing your lips by kissing the corner of your mouth and listening to you pout. How can he not find it slightly assuming? The sight just tugs at his heart strings

-Xingqiu is the prefect boyfriend in theory; except he’s like the embodiment of mischievousness. Your coat magically disappeared? Oh no how awful.. but lucky he’s a gentleman and would never want you to be cold~ How sweet of him to offer you his body warmth by engulfing your figure in his touch.

-Sitting down to eat and.. what’s this? The waiter only gave us one set of silverware/chopsticks? How bizarre! Guess he’ll have to share his and feed you. Truly unfortunate~

-When October finally rolls around, he’ll be counting down the days to his birthday like no other. Already planning to spend the entire day in your arms. & pleading for kisses all day

-He knows you no matter how much he tells you there’s no need for gifts, he knows you’ll get him something anyways. Though he’s not entirely against the idea, his heart swells at the thought of something picked out by your precious hands just for him.

-He’s rich so there’s no need for expensive gifts. Honestly I think Xingqiu would just die if you gifted him a handmade one. Something his family’s entire fortune could have never bought. Whether it be a drawing, poem, short story, handmade trinket, or even something from a diy kit Xingqui would honor it with his life. & Of course tease you to no end about it.

“My liege spent their precious time making this handmade trinket?You still seem to be a novice at this craft. Luckily your prince would be so kind to lend you his hand at it next time.“ He’s only teasing of course, it couldn’t be more prefect in his eyes.

“Oh is my dear trying to ask for a kiss? Mmm.. strange I could’ve sworn that I had just given you one but a few mere minutes ago. But you want another? My, my, my what’s gotten my darling so desperate this evening?“

Diary of a Junebug

The snowy mountains of Dragonpierce

Crystal icicles can be nice to look at, but they are a pain to deal with. The mountains would be a good place to explore some more if it wasn't for the sheer cold. I applaud Connie and their friends for braving the cold and spending a good part of their vacation time here for team building activities.

Dragonpierce is one of those places where looks can be deceiving. Appearance wise it looks like any other snowy place. But when you step inside it's brutal, to say the least. Amber, Bennett, and Xiang are the real MVPs for keeping us from freezing to death with their pyro powers.

It's a shame, really. I want to explore more of the mountains - it really is a fascinating place that's full of resources we can use at the camp. The glacial gyroids were a nice find along with various plants and berries I've never seen before. But the risk is too much, especially for non-seasoned outdoors people like us. I doubt even an experienced adventurer would want to set foot in the mountains without at least three backup plans or something.

Connie and Pai are back again with their team for another retreat. Things have been going a lot better for them, especially now that they have more allies as well as no immediate threats looming ahead. In fact, it's been a little slow as things outside their control has forced them to put their main mission on hold for a bit. Though that doesn't make Connie any less busy, especially now that they're moving up ranks with the Adventurer's Guild so they're up for a promotion soon.

Turns out it's a good thing we planned this adventure because it's been a while since the original team last hung out all together. Luci and Amber have stepped back a bit to focus on the Knights so they've been eager to meet up with Connie again. Noelle, Seraphina, and Xiang have been stepping up the ranks as well, becoming part of Connie's main team for missions. Xingqiu and Bennett have been helping with the new recruits as well as building up their skills.

In terms of combat, Pai says they've improved by a lot. It also helps that they have more members as well as the fact that Noelle and Seraphina are powerful healers. They still have a long way to go in terms of being in the same league as other seasoned adventurers so that's something for them to keep working towards.

Not too long after Connie and the gang first visited the camp, Xingqiu's best friend Chongyun offered his assistance. He's a psychic exorcist with telekinesis and cryo powers. Connie had ran into him a couple times before, tagging along with him on investigations regarding reported sightings of evil spirits.

The next teammates to join were Meggie and Di, both who work at a bar/cafe. Meggie's a friend of Amber's from Stone Bridge, a neighboring town of Bonsai. Meggie is a bartender/astrologer who just moved to the city in hopes of a new start. She says she's not too keen about being a bartender but she has to pay rent somehow - she refuses to monetize astrology, something she takes seriously. Connie says whether you believe her or not, she does possess strong intuition when it comes to reading people.

I have to say, some of her observations about me were spot on. I barely know her and she managed to get a glimpse of me just by reading the stars. I don't know too much about astrology - and it's not something I want to overly look into - but I like to have an open mind. Even if astrology isn't real, I believe some people are highly intuitive - it's a trait that you can't hone in on, you either have it or don't.

Di is a waitress who's from Spring Valley, not too far from the city. She comes from a family of hunters and is a master archer with the power of stealth on her side. She's quite young so Connie has kinda unoffically adopted her. Apparently she's been going through some stuff at home, so that's why she started working at the bar despite being underage. It's not an ideal situation, particularly due to the fact that alcoholism is a thing in her family so obviously she tries to avoid falling into the same path. No wonder Connie wanted to take Di under their wing.

Then along comes Lan, a renowned captain/pirate who's traveled around the continent at least three times so far. She came to the rescue after a mishap with explosives temporarily put Connie out of commission. Apparently someone at the Adventurer's Guild thought it was a good idea to set off explosive barrels at a high cliff to extract some ores. Lan happened to be around the area when Connie literally landed in her arms.

Lan hardly spends time on land as she's always out on the open seas, so she's kinda a legend around these parts. She said she heard about Connie from Xiang as they often write letters to each other, so she was hoping to meet the honorary hero one day. And so fate decided to literally hand Connie to her, which is quite funny.

I mean, imagine falling off a high cliff and landing right in the arms of this badass pirate captain? If that happened to me, I wouldn't know what to say or do.

And finally, there's the newest team member, a conqueror of demons named Xiao. He's basically an immortal being who has been protecting the land for thousands of years, often lurking in the background. Pai never expected him to offer his assistance considering that he usually avoids interactions with others. Connie was surprised too, though they had been working together a lot since having to defend the city so that's probably why he decided to stick around.

Considering how he keeps his distance from mortals, it's also a surprise that he came along for this trip. He does admit that the only reason he reluctantly joined in was to take the opportunity to observe the team, which makes sense. Pai says he's been helping out a lot in terms of improving team combat skills so that's why he needs to know how well everyone fights and what needs to be worked on.

While the others are off doing various activities, Xiao stands in the sidelines, watching over everything. He seems like the type who takes their responsibilities seriously, the kind you shouldn't mess with at all unless you have a death wish or something.

As for this gyroid event, we're gonna use the gyroids to forge weapons designed by Luci, Xingqiu, and Connie. With the team growing and moving up in the ranks, they're in need of more advanced weapons. Noelle's claymore is pretty worn out while Di's bow isn't exactly meant for combat. Connie still has their trusty sword, but it'll be in need of upgrades later on while Xiang's looking forward to switching out her old polearm for something more sturdier. According to Connie and Luci's research, glacial gyroids can produce a range of high quality weapons. In short, it's something to take advantage of as forging weapons is expensive and hard to come by.

While the mountains of Dragonpierce are hard to navigate, Connie says it's nothing compared to the snowy mountains on the outskirts of Starcatcher and Bonsai Harbor. Over there, you can freeze to death if you're poorly prepared, so most adventurers avoid it like the plague. The sheer cold is strong enough to knock you out if you don't have adequate warmth, not to mention the fierce monsters that roam about. As a result, Connie rarely takes commissions to go there, but it's not something they can avoid entirely, not with their standing as of now.

I don't think I'd survive the mountains over there - Dragonpierce is already pushing my limits. I get that Connie and the others want to collect gyroids, but using the mountains for combat training seems a bit risky. Though it's kinda in the middle of nowhere so I guess it makes for a good training ground. Something about the extreme cold helps to put them in the right mindset? I mean, there's other places where they can train that doesn't involve them risk freezing to death but then again I know nothing about fighting and stuff.

I have to say, it's cool to watch them show off their combat skills and powers. Connie's come a long way as a leader - that's what I call growth! Pai continues to cheer on from the sidelines while offering commentary once in a while. I wonder if one day she'll join in on the field too but I feel like that's asking too much of her.

As much as Connie and Pai are thick as thieves, Pai can be a bit exasperating. Maybe that's why she gets along well with people like Connie and Jamie as they both are kinda jaded and have a low tolerance for bullshit, therefore they can keep her in rein. Also, it's funny whenever Connie roasts Pai because let's face it, she had it coming. Like Pai, we love you, but sometimes you need to step back and be quiet.

It's fun seeing them train and figure out their team dynamics. Like how Xingqiu and Chongyun work well together by coordinating their powers to freeze enemies. So naturally, Connie and Xiao want to utilize that. Xiang, Connie, and Lan also make a deadly combo with Xiang's pyro combined with Lan's electro causes an explosion. Throw in Connie's wind storm and you've got your enemies cornered in a pyro and electro tornado.

At the campsite, everyone's got their own thing going on. Amber's gliding around as usual, practicing her archery as well and bringing fruit for us in the process. Lan, Seraphina, and Xiang have been cooking up a storm in the kitchen and they really like spicy food. I mean, they literally eat hot chilis like it's nothing - it's kinda scary. I though Rika was crazy when it came to spice but I think these three are in another league.

It's a shame. really. Because if it weren't for the intense heat, I would be able to enjoy these dishes more. They taste good but the spice...why must I be weak?

Di and Noelle have taken an interest in finding materials like plants and rocks. They're really good at discovering new stuff like unusual seashells that contain iron that can be extracted or poisonous weeds that can be used to make potions. Di has her methods of handling dangerous plants safely by infusing her arrows with cryo and shooting at them to temporarily make them safe to handle by putting them into a bubble until they can be stored away.

Bennett and Xingqiu have been showing Chongyun around the camp, teaching him a bunch of stuff in the process. Apparently he doesn't go out much so things like camping is completely new to him, so he needed some time to get comfortable. He comes across as a serious person, kinda innocent and naive though, but dedicated nonetheless. I think with Xingqiu around and Connie keeping everyone in rein, he's been able to loosen up a bit.

Pai's been having fun - she's either off doing her own thing and getting into some sort of trouble or bothering someone. It seems like the others have joined in on roasting Pai when she finds herself in a mess that she caused. It's also nice seeing Connie loosen up too, probably since they've gotten comfortable in this unfamiliar world. Pai says they've been making friends and allies left and right - from ordinary citizens to people among high rankings, even some gods as well - it's pretty wild actually.

Of course, Connie remains humble and shrugs it off as it's nothing. They say the high ranking people are just like everyone else, but as for the gods, it's best to exercise caution and expect the unexpected. Also, Connie's at the point where if they hang around certain places for too long, then one of their new friends will whisk them away on some adventure or job. It's only happened a couple times so far but Connie has a feeling that as time goes on, it's gonna become a regular thing, much to Pai's frustration. Connie says they don't mind too much - at least for now.

Since the gang will be coming back in the future for another camp event, I wonder how much things will change by then. I'm looking forward to seeing more of Connie's friends as well as hear more stories about their adventures. I just hope no one insists on doing combat training in Dragonpierce again - unless they're gonna collect gyroids too.

Either way, I think I'll pass on the freezing mountains - I think that's one area I don't mind putting off exploring for a long while.

Let’s Get Intimate

(Bennett x Xingqiu) Genshin Impact

It’s been days since Bennett has last seen his boyfriend. Xingqiu was occupied with his studies and overall catching up with his latest novels. The white haired boy wished Xingqiu would spend time with him instead of having a book in his hand twenty four seven.

He knew the teal haired boy was a total bookworm but during dates he would like Xingqiu to leave the books on a bookshelf where they belong. It hasn’t been a month and Bennett feels that their relationship is falling apart.

“Maybe you should talk to Lisa about it. She’s a sex counselor after all.” Aether advises the confused white haired boy when they had met up for lunch in the city.

“I didn’t mean that kind of intimate.” A heavy blush appears across his face at Aether’s words. “I just want Xing to give his attention to me. I want to find something we can enjoy together.”

“That applies to sex too.” The blonde jokes playfully rolling his eyes before digging into his fishermen’s toast.

“It’s not, I promise. We’re not even ready for that stage yet. I don’t see how Lisa can even help.” Bennett grumbles resting his chin on his fists.

“Regardless she’s still a counselor, I’m sure she can figure out something you can do for your relationship.” Aether shrugs his shoulders and the white haired boy gives in taking his advice.

     Off to the sex counselor, he goes.

Bennett waits in the lobby watching couples one by one go inside Lisa’s office. Maybe he should’ve brought Xingqiu. No, it would’ve been too embarrassing. Going by himself, is already embarrassing enough.

“Bennett?” He hears Lisa’s voice calling for him and he jumps out of the chair heading to her office at the end of the hallway.

“What brings you here? You’re the last person I’d expect in my office.” She giggles behind the open book in her hand.

“Well, it’s not really a sex related issue.” Bennett glancing at the ground though he couldn’t stop his cheeks from blushing.

“Oh?” She closes her book leaning forward.

“You know Xingqiu my boyfriend? We just haven’t really been spending time together ever since we started dating. He’s always got his face buried in a book, he won’t pay attention to me. I just want to be intimate with in some way.” The white haired boy explains his dilemma and she nods her head.

“What’s your version of intimacy, Bennett? When you say intimate, what do you mean?”

“Well Uh, I just want to be closer with him. I want to continue holding his hand, hugging him, and kissing him. I also want to have deep conversations with him, I want to know what makes him happy, what he wants in life, his past and our future together. I want to know everything about him but it’s hard when he can’t go one day without reading.”

“I see. Have you tried talking to him about your feelings? Does he know that he’s hurting you?” She gathers in the information.

“Erm no. I haven’t told him.” Bennett slumps in his chair fidgeting with his fingers.

“You should communicate how you’re feeling with Xingqiu, he honestly might not even know what he is doing, is wrong. You should express that your feelings are hurt because he is ignoring you and to set some boundaries. Maybe every time you two go out together, tell him to leave his books at home. It’s your time to be together as a couple. If you can’t communicate, your relationship will always fail.” Lisa advises the white haired boy.

“I just don’t want him to be angry with me. I know he loves his books, probably more than his own life. I don’t want him to get the wrong idea.” Bennett remarked but Lisa shakes her head.

“I’m sure he can make time for you as he can for his books. If he really likes you, I’m sure he’ll listen to your feelings and want to make things work.” She gives Bennett’s a smile patting his hand. “Also if you want another idea of physical intimacy, tickling is a good way to bond with someone.”

“Oh, I never thought of that.” Bennett hums glancing up at the ceiling. He always thought tickling was for kids. He remembered the times when his dads would tickle him whenever he was younger.

“Only if Xingqiu is in a good mood and seems okay with it. If he says stop, stop immediately.”

“Okay, I think I get it now.” Bennett shoots up out of the chair. “Thanks!”

“Wait! We still have so much to talk about!” Lisa calls after the white haired boy who had already sprinted out the front door.

The white haired boy reaches his boyfriend’s estate ringing the doorbell nonstop.

“Ugh it’s you.” Xingqiu’s brother answers the door with a disgusted look plastered on his face. He was appalled that his brother didn’t date someone of their class rather a fiery pyro user with one brain cell. Bennett happened to be a loud, reckless, and daring individual. The complete opposite of Xingqiu and don’t get him started on Bennett’s bad luck.

“Is Xingqiu here? I want to see him.” Bennett tried to peek past the brother’s side.

“Fine, I will get him out. Don’t set foot in our house.” The man scoffs leaving the door ajar as he searches for his younger brother.

Bennett impatiently taps his foot and a minute later Xingqiu is at the doorway.

“What’re you doing here, Benny?” The teal haired boy tilts his head like a dog raising an eyebrow.

“Let’s go on a date! You don’t need this.” Bennett grabs the book out of his hand setting it on top of a table by the door.

“Wait! Benny!” Xingqiu whines behind as the white haired boy drags him out the city.

Bennett leads them to the fields of Starfell Valley as they sit on the edge of the cliff more like the white haired boy was the one sitting on the edge of the cliff.

“Why did you bring me here?” A pout forms on Xingqiu’s face.

“I wanted to talk to you also we haven’t seen each other in forever.” Bennett wraps his arm around the other pulling him close and the teal haired boy couldn’t help but smile.

“I missed you too.” Xingqiu admits. “What did you want to talk about?”

“You’ve been hurting my feelings for the past two weeks.” The white haired boy lets out a sigh praying Xingqiu wouldn’t take his words as an insult.

“I have? What did I do?” A worried look spreads onto the other’s face.

“We never get to do anything fun like other couples do. Razor and Aether go on adventures together. Diluc and Kaeya go to the market together on the weekends. We haven’t done none of those things because you’re always studying or reading your books.”

“Reading is a part of my life, Benny. Do you expect me to give up my hobby?” Xingqiu furrows an eyebrow at the white haired boy.

“No, not at all.” Bennett shakes his head.” I want to spend time with you, not your books. I want your full undivided attention and I’ll give you mine.”

“Hmm I guess I have been bringing my books everywhere we go.” Xingqiu taps his chin recalling his memories. “But I do make time for you too, I still choose to go out with you even when I have exams the next day.”

“I know studying is important for you too. If you have exams, let me know. I want you to focus on your classes.” Bennett smiles patting Xingqiu on the head. 

“Does this mean you don’t want me to read you bed time stories anymore?” A pout forms on Xingqiu’s face, a look Bennett couldn’t resist.

“Of course I still want to listen to Xing’s bed time stories!” The white haired boy lunges for the other wrapping his arms around Xingqiu’s waist.

The bookworm squeals at the fingers digging into his sides.

“Hey!” Xingqiu bubbles with laughter feeling immobilized as Bennett straddled him with his weight.

“Aahaha! N-not there!” The teal haired boy shrieks squeezing his eyes shut as Bennett goes for his upper ribs.

“You didn’t tell me to stop, so you must like this.” A smirk crawls onto the white haired boy’s face watching Xingqiu all vulnerable underneath him.

“I ahahahaha-dont!” The bookworm struggles from his grasp though he loses his focus when Bennett’s fingers slip under his jacket.

Xingqiu cries out at the warm sensation of the other’s fingers roaming all over his tummy, he needed to find a way out. He needed to fight back.

“If you want a hint Benny, my hips are ticklish too.” The teal haired boy adds pretending to blush at the other. That should guide Bennett’s arms and hands away.

“Okay!” The white haired boy cluelessly takes in his suggestion squeezing at his hips though he wasn’t earning much of a reaction.

Xingqiu makes his move with his free arm jabbing his finger into Bennett’s navel hoping that’ll get the white haired boy off of him.

Bennett squeals doubling over falling on his side holding his abdomen and Xingqiu takes the chance to pounce on his boyfriend.

“Hehehehee! This isn’t fair!” The white haired boy yells out in laughter as Xingqiu’s cold fingers claw at his exposed tummy.

“I have tricks up my sleeve too, you know.” The teal haired boy teases the other who was too busy babbling with laughter to pay attention to his words.

“You only ahahaha got me because of my bad ahahaluck!” Bennett denies the truth and Xingqiu retaliates squeezing the sides of his tummy.

“Sure, blame everything that happens to you on your bad luck.” A chuckle escapes the bookworm’s lips knowing that he had Bennett where he wanted him.

Xingqiu realizes that the other had learned his lesson growing tired to fight back and his laughter subsiding to wheezing and gasping.

“Thanks for uhhh just being!” Bennett embraces the teal haired boy into a tight hug and a small smile finds its way across Xingqiu’s face.

“Thanks for just being too.” He couldn’t help but laugh at Bennet’s weird choice of words. Another reason to add on why he loves his boyfriend.

hihihihihihihihihihihi ok so -- -- could you do like a short mentor/mentee type of thing? i was thinking a short scene between lisa and xingqiu kinda like that one daily commission in inazuma where its the two dudes talkin about books (but any mentor/mentee character pairing would be amazing like albedo/sucrose or kaeya/bennett i love that dynamic so much)

Oooo I haven't written a mentor/mentee type thing before- once I went over their character lines in game it came to me!

Characters - Lisa, Xingqiu

Type - Platonic(obvs) - mentor/mentee

Notes - Since you requested xingqiu and lisa, I went ahead and did them! Though it would be interesting for other dynamics...

Xingqiu and Librarian Lisa aren't familiar with each other. Being from two different nations and having responsibilities to keep them there. The first time they met it was kind, Lisa approached Xingqiu in the Knights' library to check up on him. He was a new face after all, and a young one.

Xingqiu stayed attentive to the book in his hand, shuffling his feet as he read idlely. A thoughtful look on his face. He seemed to almost ignore Miss Lisa for the moment.

"Why hello there." She started out, having walked up to him. She hadn't said anything for a bit, seemingly waiting to let him notice her before she spoke up.

Xingqiu looked up momentarily before going back to the book in his hand. After a few seconds he closed the book and looked at her. Bowing he looked at her curiously, "Greetings. Quite the collection here, is it not?"

Lisa let a smile cross her face, "Why thank you dear, I've put a lot of hard work into the state of this library."

His eyes widened, "Ah! So you are the keeper of this library?"

"That I am, you can call me Lisa, sweetie. I have to say... I haven't seen your face around here before. You are from... Liyue I gather?" Lisa guessed.

"Aha! Xingqiu, at your service, esteemed Librarian." He bowed again, using one hand to lift his garment almost in a curtsy.

"No need to be so formal, sweetie, I was simply inquiring as to who the new face was in my library. Is it comparable to Liyue's libraries?"

He hummed, "It is just my way, miss Lisa. We have a book store, but I have read most books I have gotten my hands on in Liyue. The traveller suggested I come here to see if there were any.... Mondstat exclusives so to speak."

"That is quite true, there are different libraries everywhere. You will find the most beautiful of gems in each library you enter."

"Mhm! I've been restricted to Liyue because of my responsibilities, I finally found a moment to sneak away." He held a mischievous smirk.

Lisa laughed, "Is that so?"

He nodded, lifting the book he was reading earlier, "And I must say, I am glad I did. This is a book I have not seen in Liyue."

She looked over the title with a thoughtful hum, "Oh... it's been a while since I've read that one. It was quite popular as a relaxation novel for Sumeru scholars."

"Oh... I wonder what it is doing here then..." He pondered.

"It is apart of my own personal collection of course, I quite enjoyed it." She paused, "If you are looking for mondstat exclusives, some of them are mixed in, but we have a section specifically for our exclusives. They are typically the less popular tales written by locals of various generations. Some of them are quite interesting." She said.

Xingqiu looked intrigued, "Ooh, may I have a look? I am currently looking for some fresh inspiration for a writing of mine, as well as new books to grow my personal collection."

"My my, what a bookworm we have here." She laughed, "Of course, people like us are always welcome in libraries." She began walking towards a specific section.

The labelling seems dusty, to which she frowned about, "Seems I need to ask Noelle to pick up where others are slacking." She huffed under her breath. "Ah... but here we are. All mondstat exclusives, the ones in the case are old and fragile, they can only be looked at under my supervision for safe keeping. I have yet to have them copied."

Xingqiu's eyes widened, "such a large collection of only exclusives... I would love to have some of these for my personal collection."

Lisa hummed, "I can see what I can do about that, I can't let these dissapear from my library after all."

After that first chance meeting, Xingqiu tried his best to find time to read more of the mondstat exclusives.

He set aside his favorites to ask for a copy of it from the publisher if possible.

Once or twice Lisa has found him writing on some parchment at a table, scribbling down ideas. He picked up a note of his and frowned as he could not read it.

Lisa, noticing his predicament, offered to help him with practices for his handwriting that would translate to all languages.

After that he would often come to her when he was in the library to ask for her opinion on books that he found quite interesting.

She always gave the best insight and to her, he was a breath of fresh air.

[aresrl]

Hi ! I saw you were doing genshin matchups can i have one including my vision, friends, enemy and my romantic partner ? In other words can i have the whole formula haha ? I like to write on the spot so i may during my description express myself as if i was the funniest clown or jump on subjects & subjects… Please indulge me in advance :)

So starting by essential infos : i go by she/her, am 18 and would like to be paired up w a male. It can be a funny info depending of my results so i am going to say one thing about my apparence : i am on the taller side for a girl, being 173cm. Personality wise : I can be described as creative, honest, competitive, independent, rebellious, smart, playful and chaotic.

Overall i am ambiverted but can be for some hard to approach cause of my resting mean face or the way i am direct w words. I like to think a lot but am what you can call a mix of rationality and irrationality. I like to process all possibilities like a crazy sciencist, learning about new things making a step closer to the truths this world can hold to have my own perception and apply what i think is justice ? Ah, Watch me being all philosophical yet people like to call me coleric but i guess it’s just on jealousy as i obviously do of sort to make decisions w my head rather than my heart / semi ironic. but i am not immune to my own emotions even if i can hide them or bottles them up for a long time. I consider showing too much emotions as weakness and i do not like to be seen as vulnerable… So when i feel romantic feelings towards someone i also tend to feel kind of mixed up about this and do not know how to act, i use all my forces to hide my easily flustered self and then process to either flirt accidentally or act like my collected self so not so much, friendly but mysterious.

I value adaptability, quick thinking process, curiosity and detachement to social norms. I can be quite hard on myself despite not looking like your usual and organized perfectionist but do not mind facing others adversity. My hobbies consist of drawing, writing, reading, listening to music like everyone on this platform lol but add learning new things and playing all sort of games no considering their nature, also i like from time to time to cook even if i am far from being an expert but i absolutely no take slander on my skills and i do physical activities as i pay attention to my condition and want to still be able to fight whoever mess w me or run after whoever mess w me too. I take interest in psychology, history, social, economics, philosophy and languages. Currently stduying law to be the weirdest avocate. I like spicy food or just food in general, the sensation of the sun on my skin, poetry and art in all its forms. I like to take inspiration of my surroundings and am quite sensitive to things as rain, fire for that. If i wasn’t poor it would make complete sense that i like to travel, but it’s bound to not happen as i have also poor money management skills… My case is not as bad as Mr.Zhongli but i too have quite a detached relationship w money and try to not be involved in…. There’s like tons of people who owe me money but i am like too tired to even reclaim it and i guess it’s on my hidden generousity. Insert virtual sigh here, What can i add ? A fun fact about me ? During something like a week i have putted salt on my father water during summer cause i was angry at him and was laughing everyday cause he was complaining but couldn’t find the responsible ? And Till this days he don’t know it’s me ? Also i did write a 3k one shot about food flavor once, I think that’s enough embarrassment for me, thank you for doing this and I hope that’s enough and most importantly useful infos.

Okay, while reading you, I was like: “Ok, ok, calm down.” Here are your results

You received... A Pyro vision! Optimistic, enthusiastic, impulsive, reckless, and a lot of energy are the general characteristics held by the Pyro vision. • I said I wouldn't base myself on astrology and all but are you an Aries? The way you wrote your description instantly made me think of it, and the Pyro vision and this sign share the same energy. • So, the way you're writing is one of the reasons why you got a Pyro vision. • Even though you said you take your decisions with your head and not your heart, you seem very impulsive: someone made you feel bad? You will immediately plan your revenge. • You seem to have infinite energy to spend (especially on annoying people). Your partner would be... Childe! Chaotic couple. • Honestly, I think he's the only partner that could deal with you because he also likes to “cause quite the stir.” • He will manage “your” money. • He loves your softer self and will also be soft with you if he sees it. • Childe would be supportive with you, and sometimes you'd share totally different opinions on certain things so it can create interesting situations. Your friend would be... Xingqiu! Chaotic friends. • You share a common way of thinking, even though Xingqiu might be more sneaky. • Because you've got the same ideas, you always have fun together. • He's also one of the only ones that can deal with you. Your enemy would be... Chongyun! Leader of the “Victims of Y/n and Xingqiu” alliance. • Your curiosity didn't pass through Chongyun's condition, so it creates spectacular results. • He thinks that your plans are even more annoying than Xingqiu's. • He's at the edge of hating you because you never stop bothering him. Worth to mention • Yanfei could have seen you as a sort of rival, but eventually, you ended being her assistant. • Beidou likes your values. There! My final words for this are: you don't have anything to prove, and don't lose yourself.

[kitorin]

heya!! may I please request a vision and regular matchup please :0? (very very curious to see how you format your matchups hehe-) anyways, this will be based on me in real life,, just letting you know <3! (blogs are mentioned in this ask, and all the ones mentioned are my friends and mutuals to please follow them ;____;)

---

vision ~ :

my past has not been dark, I've had a happy life! my main goal in life is to ensure the success of my friends and family, because they deserve the best. I don't have many unique traits,, and the only thing I can think of that makes me, "me", is my long hair. my late grandmother had long hair, and my hair reminds me of her <3! I've also been told my eyes are very beautiful,, they're blue and shiny!! one thing I live by is the quote, "if you see someone without a smile, give them yours <3" for personality traits, I'm generally sensitive and very emotional, and (I asked my friends for this part) Benevolent, altruistic, and very creative are traits of mine (according to @scorpius-major), and according to @mikachuchu I'm chaotic, friendly, and soft.

---

regular ~ :

if possible, a female and a male ;__;? for hobbies, I love to draw!! I'm absobultey terrible at it, but enjoy it nonetheless! I love making mood boards and "themes", as well as (obviously-) writing <3!! I love and have a strong passion for my followers and mutuals, and they mean the world to me <3!! video games are super fun as well, and I HEAVILY enjoy reading manga and watching anime! sleeping and eating are amazing as well because, well, yea-! I don't really look for anything in a partner, and I can handle pretty much any trait! I always want to see the best in people, and I'm willing to look past any negative traits as long as they show me their good ones <3!! like I mentioned above, my friends describe me as chaotic, friendly, soft, benevolent, creative, and altrustic <3!

---

I'm sorry if this is to much,, feel free to ignore this <3!!

Hi Yumpty! I'm really sorry about how overdue this was ;-;

I assign you a hydro vision

Many people say that hydro users are gifted for the pursuit of mastery, this isn't incorrect, however I see another link.

All hydro users' goals have some sort of connection to protecting someone/something or to do something for another's sake.

Mona doesn't charge people for getting an astrology reading (Is that the term??), as she believes everyone deserves to know the truth, as she seeks for the truth of the world

Xingqiu wants to revive the Guhua Clan and it's arts (This one's pretty simple)

Barbara wants to support others and Jean (and surpass her), as well as make others smile

Childe I'm not sure how he got his vision (apparently he doesn't have a vision story??", but I'm gonna guess it has some connection with protecting his family and hiding his true identity for Teucer's sake

I see this connection through your goal of making sure your family and friends are successful. (And a hydro vision would match your eyes as well-)

matchups. (These are modern AU)

I pair you with Albedo

He'd find your determination to draw praiseworthy, even though you're not amazing at it. Since he's an artist as well he'd spend plenty of time drawing with you and giving you tips on how to improve. Albedo would illustrate your writing, and your book(s) if you do end up writing one. I do think he craves a bit more chaos in his life, as he probably spends most of his time studying with Sucrose who's more on the reserved side. I can see him being into making mood boards and layouts as well with photos of you two together. You'd both learn a lot, you'd help teach Albedo more about emotions while Albedo would teach you many things; whether it's drawing or anything academical

I pair you with Amber

I think she'd match your energy really well, and like you she does her best to make others smile. Amber definitely does value her sleep, and she loves eating as well (She's more of a "Live to eat" kind of person) She'd be into anime as well, I can see her being into happier anime rather than the dark and sad ones (Though she wouldn't mind watching them with you). When it comes to games she's fond of them as well, I see her being into Animal Crossing. Your relationship is overall very affectionate and can get chaotic at times.

hi bb!

oh rip... the ol’ laptop fan situation. it must sound like a plane when you play genshin right? yes, we’re more prepared now. i remember the first few years there were so many fires and stuff to the point where they even made bbq illegal. such a mess, but it took away a fire hazard which is good. i believe aus had the same situation right?

awwww sounds so cute! pokémon go? no i don’t! i dropped it after that summer sjsksjdk. do you play while you’re walking that’s so adorable. wait bakudeku zine??? you’ve peeked my interest.

ooh that makes sense! i thought about the gold seelie too actually! the babie might bring you mora which is always good to have. also there’s fanart of the gold seelie being aether and those are sooo cute. have you seen any?

help i hope xiao knows how lucky he is to have such a devoted fan as yourself!! you’re really pulling all the strings for him i applaud your patience and determination. dude albedo is like... easily one of the prettiest animated character i’ve seen! he’s gorgeous! also i like his elevator move that could be so handy. and for the dancing videos, just search on yt baron bunny dancin or something hehe.

WAIT. WAIT. WAIT. WAIT. WHAT THE FUCK? wait are you serious? venti’s jpn va is HINATA? I HAD NO IDEA WTF???? god..,. that’s it i’m switching to jpn dub that’s insane... i was actually gonna ask you once if you could apply haikyuu characters to the game who would they be and the only one i was sure about was that hinata would be venti.... 😭 you’re so talented for knowing that hehe.. also you can say that you’re studying when you’re gaming then lmao. study smart not hard. god i’m still in shock over venti. this made my morning ngl.

i have no idea how fic collabs work either. i had a friend that did it once and she said they each wrote a chapter but i feel like that might be confusing if the writers use different writing styles..? idk it seems fun but kind of scary too..

ilytttttt little blushing girl.. <3

it always goes back to dragonspine does it not... 😶 but damn it’s been about a month and you’ve saved 12k that’s super solid. since xiao will be coming around feb that means you’ll have another month-ish to save up as well... so girl you’re def getting him sjdksjdk.. <3 and so much other goodies as well. unless you don’t pull him on the first try you might get some other great characters and weapons/artifacts as well. you need to force me to start saving up too bc if venti is really coming back.. i /have/ to get him esp now that i know about the va..

they’re adorable! i don’t know much about their story but i think they’re best friends, right? which makes it even more adorable. and there’s so much fanart of them as well. dude speaking of, genshin stans make the BEST fanart. i spend hours just looking at them and it’s perfect. i imagine there’s so much on twitter too, right?

god. remember shiro and adam. dreamworks would def not do that.. lmao...

your bravery for even considering posting wip. i’m taking my hat off for you. also, one writer to another; how does your writing process usually go? i’m always interested in seeing how other fic writers work bc it varies so much.

oh!! i was all over the place but i really liked sm groups. and loona! you don’t like slow songs? like even slow indie? aksjjdhdkdhf im gonna keep asking to find a middle group bc right now i’m super lost help...

i don’t really like sleeping in so it’s fine HEHE it’s 9 am now and i woke up about an hour ago which was perfect. 10 hour sleep? immaculate. not yikes. sleeping is always good never stress about it shjdhdjd, think about when you go back to school and have to pull all nighters etc.

kiss <3

heya!!

yeah HAHAAH it gets so hot omg.. and my laptop is supposed to have pretty good specs so i can’t imagine what it would’ve been like if i tried to play on my old one yikes 😬 oh shoot! yeah we have a fire danger rating too, the second lowest one is “high” and it goes beyond “extreme” to “code red”/“catastrophic” lollll. and we’ve regularly got fire bans in the summer to try and prevent anything! 

hfsdkjfhs summer 2016? god i remember that time so clearly... iconic 😩 i do play sometimes! normally if there are any mystic gyms around me to join, otherwise i’m kinda lazy about actually catching the pokemon HAHA oops. https://twitter.com/kotatsutomikan1 here!! does that mean 👀 you main bkdk 👀👀👀

oooo i thought the seelies were actually just there for decoration? AHAH. yessss I saw one with a whole lineup! https://twitter.com/icedkappe/status/1347555831831699457 look how cute 🥺 ugh but that reminds me of something i was thinking of earlier today, i hope they’ll introduce skins or something later down the line? fshdk like think of the potential. it always upsets me when i click the hanger icon and it only lets me change their glider fhsjfskfjsdjkf

god when i saw albedo’s hair... <3333333 and also his eyes??? um chief alchemist? more like PRETTIEST alchemist. yesss i’ve been doing plunge attacks a lot more recently (preparing for xiao?) and honestly ugh if i had albedo.. I LOOKED THOSE VIDEOS UP!!! THEY ARE SO FUCKING ADORABLE WHAT EHE FSUCJK!!!!!!  my god. fancam for characters who? ? from now on only fancams of baron bunny are allowed 😤😤😤

AHAHAH YEAH HE IS!!!! wait have you finished the world quest with him tho?? either way i’m sure you’ll be able to find clips of it in japanese dub online... his ‘ehe’ is so cute my god.. study smart not hard my motto!!!! <3 

yeah I feel like chapters is confusing which is why separating by POV might work better? definitely scary tho lol .... such uncharted territory for me

IM DEF GETTING HIM!!! xiao i am patiently waiting for you to come home 👐🙇‍♀️ yes!! i really hope the four stars on his banner are good bc i’m def gonna be pulling it a lot AHAHHA i hope hm.... i wanna get xingqiu to match with chongyun but beido seems so cool too 😩 tho i already have so many claymore users fsdhfksdfhsjd. oh that also reminds me venti’s elemental burst dialogue ‘kaze da!’ is so cute... like his voice is so melodic??? omg.... WAIT lemme send you this interview i found https://youtu.be/g3floaU41Uc !! AND START SAVE UP MARRIAGE ANON!!!!! tho i think he’s like 5 banners away so you still have time if you do wanna pull now... fhdsfkjds

they are!!! chongyun has this line in his story profile “Who could he possibly trust, if not his fine friend Xingqiu?” 🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭 how cute is he i love him so much :((((((((((((( yeah there are so many on twitter!! i don’t see much on tumblr tbh bc i don’t look at my dash too often AHHAHA but it’s all over my twitter timeline~ 

my writing process depends!! but typically i type out the outline of a fic/write out certain scenes, then fill in everything around that ahaha. usually my ideas come from a line i thought up that i really like or just a concept. i usually also type out my plans in all caps LOL. i hope that makes sense lmaooo how about you? do you just go for it or plan everything out first?

ooo yeah sm have some really nice stuff... and nice! i never gave loona a shot FJKDHFKSJ. i don’t think so?? the slow songs i do like are usually exceptions rather than the rule LMAO but i like hozier’s stuff even tho they’re slow (but who doesn’t? AHAH) honestly i couldn’t even give you examples bc i can’t think of any FHSDKFJS like i guess for example, lovely by billie eilish and khalid, i like the song but on a normal day if it came up on shuffle i’d skip it? FHSFKSD im so sorry legit i am no help at all fhskdfhsjdfjsdkfhsdhkfhk but what are some artists you listen to often?

i never pull all-nighters!! it’s kinda like my rule, even if i’m absolutely fucked i’ll deal with it later rather than not sleep fhskjfsdf. (or maybe i just haven’t reached that stage yet... i hope not!). also wait a second i just registered what you wrote.. YOU WOKE UP AT 8AM????????? my goodness... legit i don’t think i did that a single time in 2020. there was a week i woke up at 8:30 every day but very quickly i started sleeping in again omg... that energy! i’m also gonna try start waking up early but it’s hard when i go to bed then read fic 😩

kisses!!! hope your day has been swell so far xoxo

hi babe ! its snowing so much here today i’ve been cold all day :( but i got some chai latte and made snow angels so i’m feeling a bit better,.. <3

i wish there was a way to trade objects or send them away!! ik it would spiral into hacking, scamming and would probably defeat the purpose of the game by making it much easier but still :( it would be nice to help out friends with some objects.. :(

actually the most annoying thing about mobile is the camera. it sometimes glitches especially during battle and i find myself stuck facing a mountain bc the camera. so i see why people might complain. also sadly NO :( i wish!! i have an old laptop i thought of using but idk if it can handle it. i think i wanna try it out though. do you use a laptop or pc?

that’s true. i wish we could like... unable easy mode and just chill LMAO hsjshdhdk. but combat does get more fun the more you progress, i’ve started to really enjoy it. now i get why you started to like dragonspine.... i think.... i’m still iffy about that place... 🤔 fuck the cold.

dude. they’re sooo good. i love how they just.. angrily reassure each other constantly. kageyama’s just ARGH *literally smacks sense into hinata’s head* and hinata’s just EEE *takes the compliments and spikes like a mf*

i actually didn’t know much about voltron when i first started watching. i only knew about shiro because an acquaintance had posted about his gay announcement but i never checked it out. i actually got into it in a funny way... i was on yt one day and i saw a video titled ‘are keith and lance gay?’ and i was like who the fuck are keith and lance? then because i’m such a gay person myself i decided to check it out and i saw keith and was like... wow that’s a cute boy... then i saw their dynamic and said WOAH. and well... i just started watching and got hooked and i thought everything was neat and fun so i watched up until season 3 without engaging in any fan activities so i had no idea what people were saying...,, then i did and i was greeted with the shit storm. and the rest is history. but i can imagine it must’ve been so fun... the excitement of not knowing where the story will go and getting new content and being in the fandom while it was alive despite everything.... ahhh how did you find out about the show?

dude YEAH!!! do you feel like university affects the way you handle your fandoms? we talked a bit about hobbies and stuff but what about fandoms?

(MAKES A SECOND REROLL ACCOUNT JUST FOR THIS.... 🥺 omgggg imagine how cute that would be wait omg i’m actually like ahhhh.. we could go on dates at liyue... or watch the sunset at cape oath.... or have picnics at any mountain top... 😳 YEAH PLS that would be so nice... help is anyway nice to have and you’re such a op now you’d just murder the villains in a second... 😳 oo. although i checked earlier and my server is in america for some reason? i really hope they do the cross-server thing life would be SO good. i’d ask you on a date in a heartbeat. 😳 which characters would we use on this co-op date?)

KOSMO!!! BEST PART OF VOLTRON???? kosmo... come back to us please.. please. ok maybe second best part after keith in the bom suit..... god keith in purple just sits so right <3333 sooo right <3333 I VOTE FOR KEITH BECAUSE HE’S HALF-GALRA SO I GUESS THAT MAKES HIM THE FUTURE *LOVE-SICK SMILE* yeah... hahaha fucking fools. ‘rewrite where lance was looking for keith to confess to him bc they were going back to space’ CRIESSSSSSSSSSSS... CLUNAAAA... 🥺👉🏽👈🏽 hi.. 🥺 now i’m just gonna think about this all night and clutch my heart. thank you for that. btw how would you feel about a voltron movie ?

(i love how our topics just jump from genshin to voltron to genshin to voltron again lmao)

lots of kisses from your m.a. <3333

(okay this ended up being very long bc i combined your second ask too and talked a lot so i hope it’s okay i put it under a read more fkdsjhfks)

omg snow!!! is it all pretty and fluffy 🥺🥺 also ‘chai latte’ and ‘snow angels’ in the same sentence when you said you were cold made me fhfksfjs but i’m happy you’re feeling better! muwah 🥰

yeah same!! i said that to my brother when i first started playing i was like ‘i wish you could trade characters’ and he just gave me a deadpan look and was like.. why would they allow that FHDSFKHD sigh but it would be fun!

ah yikes no! sometimes the camera fucks up even on pc so I can’t imagine what it’s like on mobile in the pivotal moments fhdkfjsd. and i use a laptop! i don’t have a pc ahaha. ahhh i hope you somehow manage to find a laptop/pc to try it out thoo

AHAHAH come on m.a. give dragonspine another shot 🤪🤪 but yeah the challenge is fun sometimes! tho i tried to do a domain like 3 times today and kept failing so... it’s also not fun. (i also tried to find some vids about how to build my characters and got overwhelemd fkhsdfks i feel like i’m going about it all in the wrong way ahhhhhhhhhhhh)

FSHDFKJSDHFKSDHJF THAT DESCRIPTION OF KAGEHINA YES 💯💯💯💯 the accuracy omg.. they’re such chaotic idiots i love them!!!!

!!! what a story that is ahah omg it’s like fate... icb you got that vid recommended to you lolol iconic... and i found out about it from my dash!! someone reblogged a screenshot and i was like “legend of korra?” FHSKFJHSKF so basically i thought it was a korra comic or something bc the art style was so similar fhskdfjd. and then i went searching and gave it a shot! and fell down the rabbit hole..

ooo wdym by handle my fandoms? i do know that last year when uni got overwhelming i locked my twitter and made a priv to vent and just. didn’t really go on social media if that’s what you meant FHSKJSDHKF but yeahhhhhhh uni fkn sucks. sucks out all the motivation i have for anything... i type so many words for lectures that i don’t have the energy to write fic :// FJKDSHKSDHFKSHF don’t meant to get so negative but yeahh lol. hbu?

(all those options got my heart going doki doki 😩 who needs real life dating when you can date in the gorgeous atmosphere that is genshin? AHAH. and oh? america??? maybe they just did that as default hm. as for which characters.... i don’t know that we have any that make up the popular ships fhdskjfj (xingqiu/chongyun, zhongli/childe, beidou/ningguang).. tho i see xiao/aether and xiao/venti on the rise so when the time comes ... AHAH you can be the venti to my xiao <3 LOL)

!!!!!!!!! okay i’ll list that down as the fic idea.. but no promises once again sdjfhksdf but i’m also very 👀👀👀 at the concept so! will def keep it in the back burner. 

hm. i honestly don’t know if i would even pay any attention to it hfksdhfjds like voltron left such a sour taste in my mouth i don’t even know that i could consume any canon content ever again. but it’ll also depend on what the plot would be? lol. would you be okay with it?

(lmaooo we be balancing many convos at once look at us 🤪)

ALSO!!! i’m watching spirited away rn and omg. i love haku sm. i love no face too!!! (at least in the beginning when he (?????) was helping sen <33) all the characters are really good as well tho and ofc the art and music!! i really wanna draw something for it now...... and it makes me very excited to watch howl’s moving castle!!

‘I saw the person my younger self had been enraptured by. I saw someone who took my breath away. And when I blinked, I saw the present you. A soul which, slowly but surely, I’d started to fall in love with.’

UMMMMMMMM CLUNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! explain yourself right now.........., what is this goddamn beauty you hide ? why is that so beautiful..,,, i take it the last klance fic is a multiverse fic???? literally everything good in one????? i saw hints of royal au as well? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 you do us so good i literally love you sm just reading those small snippets just Ahhhhhh..... i love them they sound amazing i just wanna exist in them yk... 😭😭😭😭😭😭

FHDSKJFHDSFKJ IF YOU THINK THAT IS GOOD JUST WAIT UNTIL YOU READ THE LAST SECTION!!!!!!!!! but at the same time i’m surprised by myself too... me @ past me you ain’t bad! shdfkds I legit have no recollection or writing the snippet you sent but i’m glad you like it 😩😩 and thank you for being so kind always ilysm too 😭❣💓💖💫💞💘❣💖

oh and to answer your question (oops almost forgot) yes it’s a multiverse fic!! that’s why i thought it’d be good for the last one ehehe. just shoved in everything i loved and made klance in love in them!!

hope you’re treating yourself!! loveeeeeee your c.r. <3
