Two Worlds One Heart: 🌿Our Exchange🌿

(Idk if I will keep updating this on Wattpad. Barely anyone views this and I have more reading it on tumblr. But I will try. If you can, Please let other genshin players that love Tighnari about this book! Idm having a small audience at all, it's just that my audience on tumblr has more people reading it.) (sorry for a long wait and how short it is 😭)

You woke up curled next to Tighnari. Lifting your head slightly as his began to fall. You held it up for him on your shoulder. You looked down to see the both of yours and his tail wrapped against the others body. Blushing slightly as you used magic to bring the paper on the table towards you. (If only I could irl) Reading what collei had written. You were happy for her. She was getting better at literature. 

"Y/N or Tighnari, whoever is reading this. I would like to ask you both on how to control my dendro powers better. I also want to learn a bit of magic as well just incase I can't use my bow. Please give me some lessons on these. I told the forest rangers to not disturb you both. I'm hoping none came inside, I told them to go to Rana instead. I hope you both enjoyed your nap. I would surely be exhausted talking for hours as my social battery isn't as high. Make sure to check the time when you both work up. I have some pita pockets made on the table for the both of you if you're both hungry."

-Collei.

"Awwh! That's so sweet of her!" You said in a soft voice being careful to not wake Tighnari up beside you. Your tail swished slowly as you kept reading the note. Checking the time which was 6pm. The usual time for dinner. "Hey Nari, it's 6pm do you want to eat?" You nudged him slightly Ashe work up from the gentle touch. "Mmhh?" He said as his eyes opened. He rubbed them as he registered your sentence.

"Oh sure! Also since when did you start calling me Nari hm-?~" he asked with a bit of tease in his voice. "Today because I feel comfortable, it's nice meeting a kindred spirit y'know?" You said as you pointed to the pita pockets in front of the both of you. Silently enjoying the food with not many thoughts in your head. "Do you want to do anything after we're done?" You asked him and he nodded. "Yeah I can take you somewhere that I think you would like in the Avidya Forest." "Ooh! That sounds fun!" You said as he nodded. "Make sure to not startle them. Be careful when we head there." He said as he kept eating. 

You gave him your plate as you finished. Taking them both to the sink and returning to the couch. "When do you want to go? I say nighttime is the prettiest for this place." "We can go right now if you want to Tighnari." "Alright I'll leave a note for collei to find if she can't find us." He said as you got up and went outside. He wrote where you were going to be with him and when you both should return. Before getting up and joining you.

"It's this way." He said as he pulled your shirt(or jacket) lightly. Tugging it to the right. "Oh haha!" You said slightly embarrassed as you followed him. (And no it's not a real location 🥰) After a few turns and dealing with paths you both made it to the spot. You were in awe as Tighnari looked at you. "That was how I was when I first stumbled across this place." He laughed as his gaze went back towards it. 

It was a little clearing with a pond,  Firefly's dazzled around it while some foxes were nearby resting. You could hear crickets clearly with the water rushing slowly. Some birds chirped nearby, the sounds of the animals were calming. "Make sure to not scare them away, be gentle." He said as he brought you closer. Sitting near the edge of the pond. Watching as some of the foxes came up towards him. Cautious and wary of you before realizing you wouldn't hurt them. 

"Hmm." You said as you petted a fox that was near you. "I wonder how it feels getting scratched behind the ear." You said as your eyes went towards the fox. "It feels nice." Tighnari told you as he took a few notes. "Woww so descriptive." You playfully rolled your eyes at him as he laughed. "Numbskull of course it feels good." Still writing notes down. "Well I never experienced it since my ears are lowered often." 

"Anyways how long are we going to stay here?" You asked as you looked at him." "I suppose we could stay here for a bit more if you want." "Sure then." You replied as your focus went elsewhere. "Are we going when you finish your notes?" "Yeah I am almost done." He continued to write before getting up. Handing out his hand to you as you touched his. Going back towards Tighnaris house. 

"Our exchange is changing a lot." You said out loud as he heard you. "Yeah we're becoming friends, that's how interactions work." "Do you always have a need to be sassy?" "Not really do you?" "No..." "That's good." Collei saw as the both of you came back. Giving her report to Tighnari and told what happened while the both of you were away. "Thank you collei." He stated as he sat down on a chair. Reading the reports that she handed him. "I'll go get ready for bed." Teleporting away from the both of them and quickly took a shower and changed. Using clothes you had brought along as you came back to the both of them.

"That was quick." Collei stated as she saw you teleport in front of them. You wore a long shirt with medium length pants. Watching Tighnari read the reports. "They all did well today. Glad there's no longer withering zone reports. Those were tiring with a limited amount of people available to battle them." 

"It sounds as difficult as the Decree we had in inazuma. It was hard to get trades and export everything. With less visitors and unable to make trades made it hard to earn money." You said remembering how many had suffered to afford their homes. "I have heard about it. Especially with the raiden shogun not letting anyone slip up." 

"Anyways you guys can go sleep I'll be writing my responses to the forest rangers." Tighnari stated as he watched you both leave the room. Focusing on making his responses. His eyes went towards the window. Gazing at the moon every now and then. Before falling asleep on his bed. 

"Tighnari are you up yet?" You said as you tapped him as his shoulder, his ears picked up on your voice as he looked at you. "What's up?" "The sky, anyways I'm heading to sumeru city to get some souvenirs. Do you know any good spots? Or I can mark some stuff based on sumeru." 

"I can teach you to make a flower crown in exchange for how to make something from inazuma." He stated as you agreed. "We can go make some quickly before I start working." "Yeah it sounds fun!" He took out some Nilotpalas lotuses and sumeru roses. "Chose however pattern you want." He said as he made a pattern. Watching you do the same thing. "So here's how you do it..."

"Master has been exchanging information with Y/N again. I don't know where they headed off to but don't worry! He definitely wrote a message somewhere on a letter. I think it's over there actually." Collei stated as she handled the amount of forest rangers coming to her for help. (This sure is getting hard to keep up with, I hope the both of them return soon to us.) she thought as the number of forest rangers dwindled and finally dispersed."Oh it's time for patrol soon. So they should be returning soon for it." Collei told herself as she checked the time. Getting everything ready for him and her for his arrival with you. 

"That was fun! I like the combo, purple and yellow is always great together." You said as you enjoyed the color choice. "Glad you do, anyways it's time for patrol so we are heading back, you can go to sumeru city and look for souvenirs and stuff over there while we're busy." "Alright well we should hurry we don't want you being late to it." He nodded as the both of you ran towards Gandharva Ville. "Well goodbye guys!" You said as you waved goodbye as they headed off. Teleporting to sumeru city you were in awe. Sumeru city's tree really was holding up the Akademiya. "Now to find someone or somewhere to go to for souvenirs." You stated as you wandered around the place. Many things caught you eye as you purchased some for your friends and had some breakfast over there. 

"Sumeru city is nice I didn't think there would be a whole tree in the city! " you told yourself as your gaze lingered on it before you pulled out your phone and started to eat. Trying to ignore the stares you recieved from others. Were they all in awe of you or were they trying to figure out what you are? Surely the scholars know you're from inazuma and are kitsune. The ones that aren't scholars may only know of you being inazuman.

Fools

AkaKuro Day 3 (April 13) - Target | Intuition | Yonder Quote: “I’m not leaving you behind.”

This time I’m posting late for a different reason. That reason being, I got carried away. So I had to smudge the end to make it on time. TBH idk what happened here.

Enjoy some tragic prince/knight AU.

“Protect the Prince!”

“The assassins have back up, get ready!”

“Shit, where did these bastards come from?!”

Loud, louder, louder, the screaming got, echoing throughout the castle's stone walls as the fighting went on. Shortly thereafter, all the sudden, it was quiet. The crickets outside were no longer chirping like they were just hours before. Instead, the sound of  footsteps running around outside the door was somewhat more chilling than the the sounds of clashing weapons.

How far away were they?

How close?

It was only a matter a time, and they would soon be found.

Here in the farthest reaches of the castle, is where they hid. It was a special room. One that meant a stronger meaning to them than the royal crest does to the royal family. It sounds doubtful but it was true. They would know, since, after all, Akashi was the prince.

He was the prince of kingdom ruled under a oppressive monarchy led by his controlling father. The two were on bad terms, as Akashi wanted to find a way to break their people free and let them live better lives whilst the king merely sunk into the greed and power his position offered. Naturally, their people hated the royal family, especially the king, as a result. Now, as a repercussions of the royal family's actions, a rebellion was underway. A revolt to end the monarchy.

Their only choice now was to hide, and what place better than their secret room. Well, the location wasn't a secret, but more of what happened inside.

The place where they first met and the place their relationship changed forever.

They couldn't let anyone find out. It'd bring shame to the family. No one could ever know that the prince and his knight were lovers.

Kuroko suddenly found himself being pressed against the prince's chest, the man holding almost too tightly. He wiggled in his grasp and allowed himself to gain some air, though the grip barely let up.

He shot an irritated glare toward Akashi, his voice reaching the lowest of whispers, “Akashi-sama, I'm supposed to be guarding you. Not the other way around. Please let me do my job.”

What surprised him was the distressed expression on his beloved’s beloved’s face. Akashi was notorious for keeping his cool. Given the situation, Kuroko could hardly judge him, but the fact that this one expression hasn't changed since the start of the rebellion meant something.

“Forgive me, Tetsuya,” he apologized, letting Kuroko out of his arms but kept a hand intertwined with the other’s. “I just fear that if I let go, then…”

“Don't think like thatー”

Kuroko ended up cutting himself off when his eyes found their way of a red stain spreading on Akashi's side, just above his waist. It was large and smelled of iron. Akashi was bleeding, and by appearances, it could very well be fatal. All in all, whether they successfully stay hidden til the end or are found, it's likely that the prince will die.

“Akashi-sama, we must get you help immediately!”

Before Kuroko could get very far, Akashi used their entwined hands to pull him back. His other hand applied pressure to his aching wound; he body shaking to stay up before succumbing to pain, legs collapsing and bring him to the floor.

Quickly, the knight knelt down to reach eye level with Akashi, worry reflecting in his blue orbs. “Don’t overwork yourself, Akashi-sama.”

“Today, Tetsuya, don’t call me that,” the prince replied, voice weak. “Just for today, call me by name.”

“.....Sei...jūrō…”

A soft yet wistful smile crossed Akashi’s lips. “I love you so much, Tetsuya. You have always supported my decisions to try to fix my family's wrongs.”

Sudden shouting and knocking outside the door added to the tension in the air.

“What are you saying!?”

Voices yelled out directions as objects began ramming the door.

“You are the one that made me want to become a better person. You're the reason I could take anything my father threw at me. I love you.”

“Seijūrō, stop!”

“Hush now, Tetsuya, you'll lead them right toward us.”

“But-!”

“Listen, I'm their target,” Akashi said, interrupting his lover. “Tetsuya, leave while you can.”

“I can’t do that.” There was no way he was going to escape on his own. He wouldn't be able to live with himself if he let Akashi suffer at the hands of an angry mob...alone. Besides a knight stays loyal to their word. “I love you, Seijūrō.”

“You're a fool, Tetsuya.”

“I know. However, didn't I promise you that I wouldn't leave you behind?”

The prince managed out a shakey laugh, reaching over to kiss his beloved one final time.

“We’re both fools.”

The door is finally broken open.

Five times now, Kuroko has seen this same boy lounging in this room, reading one of the many books that were scattered around the room, no more space on the overflowing bookshelves. He was there nearly everyday and everyday he was reading a new book.

He had once taken an interest in what the the other was reading and discovered they were far more advanced than what someone around twelve years old would normally be reading. Just who was this boy?

Today as well he went to take a peek, cracking open a rather fancy looking book that the boy had read the other day. However this time, he got caught.

“You there, who are you? You're not allowed in here.”

Turning around, blue eyes met with red ones for the first time. For whatever reason, the boy didn't say thing after that, making Kuroko wonder if he was straight up repulsive to this other kid. He was the son of a simple maid, after all.

To his shock the exact opposite happened.

“Do you like books?”

“Y...yes.” Not that his reading skills were all that great.

“I'll teach you how to read, if in return, you sneak me into town.”

This aristocrat looking boy knew who he was after all.

And he kept his promise, years later they had successfully snuck out and back when they were sixteen. By this time they learned a great deal about each other, the kingdom, and of course their status. Their friendship would be forcibly broken by the king if he were to ever find out, thus turning the old stashed away library room into their special place.

Every time they met there, Kuroko could see the prince growing as a person. He was cold and isolated himself at the start, but has softened over the years. His eyes would never leave the prince's form whenever they snuck out after the first time. He was entranced by Akashi as he danced with the commoners whilst in disguise. It was a strange but beautiful sight.

The way he saw Akashi changed after that, which the prince easily tricked him into admitting one night.

That was the start of it all.

It was the night of Akashi’s 18th birthday and they managed to sneak away from the never ending dinner party the king hosted for his son. They went straight for their special room. Finally some they spilled into laughter,  each sharing the funny moments they experienced that night. They only wished that they could have experienced it together.

Akashi fell quiet after awhile. The stories coming to an end, and Kuroko could feel the prince's gaze on him. He nervously tried to turn his attention to the garden just out the window.

A hand prevented that.

Akashi’s hand.

It felt warm against his cheek in comparison to the cool air that drifted in from the open window. It also forced him to met his prince’s eyes.

“Ryouta said something interesting this morning.”

Of course Kise was to blame.

“He said that you're in love with me.”

Kuroko never felt his cheeks warm up so fast, casting his gaze in another direction. “I don't know what you're talking about. Kise-sama was mistaken.”

“He said he heard it from you.”

Curse Kise’s ability to be both a great and horrible confidant. Curse Akashi’s straightforwardness.

Frowning, Kuroko pulled away, nearly slapped the prince's hand back in turn. “So what of it? Yes I love you. My best friend and the prince. Ironic isn't it? Do you hate me now? You have a fiancé anyー”

For the first time, Kuroko found himself speechless as his sentence was cut off by soft lips pressing against his own. Several minutes had to have passed before he really registered what had just occurred.

“Akashi-sama, what are you doing! Someone could have seen that!”

The prince waved away the concern with a laugh. “We’re safe here, besides I just couldn't hold back. I've always been hoping to hear those words from you.”

“What? There's no way. You have a fiancé.”

“Broke it off.”

“Your dadー”

“Doesn't matter.”

“I'm just a servant, Akashi-sama, andー”

“Tetsuya, become my knight. My personal bodyguard.”

“What?”

“Daiki will train you.” The tone he spoke in prevented any room for arguing.

“Aomine-kun knew about this?”

“He is the one that informed me that you planned on leaving with your parents when the resign in a week. Why didn't you tell me?”

The pained expression in Akashi's eyes right now was exactly why. That and because Kuroko never dreamed that the prince would ever share his feelings.

“Forgive me, Akashi-sama.”

“You can make it up to me,” he began, bringing the back of the servant’s hand to his lips, “by becoming my knight so you never have to leave my side.”

Pink colored Kuroko’s cheeks.

Akashi leaned his further until they were merely inches apart. “Promise me that you will never leave me behind.”

Nodding, he slipped a hand into those red locks and pulled the prince closer, sealing the deal.

They would never have predicted that this where they first met, and eventually had their first kiss, would also be where they'd meet their end.

dima and ari, her parents. just like dima, they’re people she feels safe to be here genuine self around and she can trust them and never worry about it

K: Kill2. have they ever thought about homicide?

honestly,,,, like,, yeah given some of her experiences,, but she’d never actually do it unless it was out of self defense because her life is in serious danger. in which case i don’t really consider it homicide, its murder by self defense which is different than thinking and deciding to go out and kill someone

Q: Questions2. do they ask questions in class?

occasionally, but not often. she’s quiet in class, she tries to blend in as much as possible

R: Rules2. would they be a strict or laid-back parent?

deffoz laid back. strict parents make for more risk for the kids

S: Streets

2. would they give money to someone on the streets?

U: Underdog2. have they bullied anyone?

no. her and dima have been on the receiving end ever since they started school

yeah a decent amount. stress anxiety and any strong negative feeling tends to manifest itself in feeling not the best

W: Water2. have they learned to swim?

yeszssssszszszszss

X: Xylophone2. do they have a favorite song?

nadya is constantly playing all sorts off different genres so the song always varies depending on her mood

(sorry for a long wait and how short it is 😭)

You woke up curled next to Tighnari. Lifting your head slightly as his began to fall. You held it up for him on your shoulder. You looked down to see the both of yours and his tail wrapped against the others body. Blushing slightly as you used magic to bring the paper on the table towards you. (If only I could irl) Reading what collei had written. You were happy for her. She was getting better at literature. 

"Y/N or Tighnari, whoever is reading this. I would like to ask you both on how to control my dendro powers better. I also want to learn a bit of magic as well just incase I can't use my bow. Please give me some lessons on these. I told the forest rangers to not disturb you both. I'm hoping none came inside, I told them to go to Rana instead. I hope you both enjoyed your nap. I would surely be exhausted talking for hours as my social battery isn't as high. Make sure to check the time when you both work up. I have some pita pockets made on the table for the both of you if you're both hungry."

-Collei.

"Awwh! That's so sweet of her!" You said in a soft voice being careful to not wake Tighnari up beside you. Your tail swished slowly as you kept reading the note. Checking the time which was 6pm. The usual time for dinner. "Hey Nari, it's 6pm do you want to eat?" You nudged him slightly Ashe work up from the gentle touch. "Mmhh?" He said as his eyes opened. He rubbed them as he registered your sentence.

"Oh sure! Also since when did you start calling me Nari hm-?~" he asked with a bit of tease in his voice. "Today because I feel comfortable, it's nice meeting a kindred spirit y'know?" You said as you pointed to the pita pockets in front of the both of you. Silently enjoying the food with not many thoughts in your head. "Do you want to do anything after we're done?" You asked him and he nodded. "Yeah I can take you somewhere that I think you would like in the Avidya Forest." "Ooh! That sounds fun!" You said as he nodded. "Make sure to not startle them. Be careful when we head there." He said as he kept eating. 

You gave him your plate as you finished. Taking them both to the sink and returning to the couch. "When do you want to go? I say nighttime is the prettiest for this place." "We can go right now if you want to Tighnari." "Alright I'll leave a note for collei to find if she can't find us." He said as you got up and went outside. He wrote where you were going to be with him and when you both should return. Before getting up and joining you.

"It's this way." He said as he pulled your shirt(or jacket) lightly. Tugging it to the right. "Oh haha!" You said slightly embarrassed as you followed him. (And no it's not a real location 🥰) After a few turns and dealing with paths you both made it to the spot. You were in awe as Tighnari looked at you. "That was how I was when I first stumbled across this place." He laughed as his gaze went back towards it. 

It was a little clearing with a pond,  Firefly's dazzled around it while some foxes were nearby resting. You could hear crickets clearly with the water rushing slowly. Some birds chirped nearby, the sounds of the animals were calming. "Make sure to not scare them away, be gentle." He said as he brought you closer. Sitting near the edge of the pond. Watching as some of the foxes came up towards him. Cautious and wary of you before realizing you wouldn’t hurt them. 

“Hmm.” You said as you petted a fox that was near you. “I wonder how it feels getting scratched behind the ear.” You said as your eyes went towards the fox. “It feels nice.” Tighnari told you as he took a few notes. “Woww so descriptive.” You playfully rolled your eyes at him as he laughed. “Numbskull of course it feels good.” Still writing notes down. “Well I never experienced it since my ears are lowered often.” 

“Anyways how long are we going to stay here?” You asked as you looked at him.” “I suppose we could stay here for a bit more if you want.” “Sure then.” You replied as your focus went elsewhere. “Are we going when you finish your notes?” “Yeah I am almost done.” He continued to write before getting up. Handing out his hand to you as you touched his. Going back towards Tighnaris house. 

“Our exchange is changing a lot.” You said out loud as he heard you. “Yeah we’re becoming friends, that’s how interactions work.” “Do you always have a need to be sassy?” “Not really do you?” “No…” “That’s good.” Collei saw as the both of you came back. Giving her report to Tighnari and told what happened while the both of you were away. “Thank you collei.” He stated as he sat down on a chair. Reading the reports that she handed him. “I’ll go get ready for bed.” Teleporting away from the both of them and quickly took a shower and changed. Using clothes you had brought along as you came back to the both of them.

“That was quick.” Collei stated as she saw you teleport in front of them. You wore a long shirt with medium length pants. Watching Tighnari read the reports. “They all did well today. Glad there’s no longer withering zone reports. Those were tiring with a limited amount of people available to battle them.” 

“It sounds as difficult as the Decree we had in inazuma. It was hard to get trades and export everything. With less visitors and unable to make trades made it hard to earn money.” You said remembering how many had suffered to afford their homes. “I have heard about it. Especially with the raiden shogun not letting anyone slip up.” 

“Anyways you guys can go sleep I’ll be writing my responses to the forest rangers.” Tighnari stated as he watched you both leave the room. Focusing on making his responses. His eyes went towards the window. Gazing at the moon every now and then. Before falling asleep on his bed. 

“Tighnari are you up yet?” You said as you tapped him as his shoulder, his ears picked up on your voice as he looked at you. “What’s up?” “The sky, anyways I’m heading to sumeru city to get some souvenirs. Do you know any good spots? Or I can mark some stuff based on sumeru.” 

“I can teach you to make a flower crown in exchange for how to make something from inazuma.” He stated as you agreed. “We can go make some quickly before I start working.” “Yeah it sounds fun!” He took out some Nilotpalas lotuses and sumeru roses. “Chose however pattern you want.” He said as he made a pattern. Watching you do the same thing. “So here’s how you do it…”

“Master has been exchanging information with Y/N again. I don’t know where they headed off to but don’t worry! He definitely wrote a message somewhere on a letter. I think it’s over there actually.” Collei stated as she handled the amount of forest rangers coming to her for help. (This sure is getting hard to keep up with, I hope the both of them return soon to us.) she thought as the number of forest rangers dwindled and finally dispersed.“Oh it’s time for patrol soon. So they should be returning soon for it.” Collei told herself as she checked the time. Getting everything ready for him and her for his arrival with you. 

“That was fun! I like the combo, purple and yellow is always great together.” You said as you enjoyed the color choice. “Glad you do, anyways it’s time for patrol so we are heading back, you can go to sumeru city and look for souvenirs and stuff over there while we’re busy.” “Alright well we should hurry we don’t want you being late to it.” He nodded as the both of you ran towards Gandharva Ville. “Well goodbye guys!” You said as you waved goodbye as they headed off. Teleporting to sumeru city you were in awe. Sumeru city’s tree really was holding up the Akademiya. “Now to find someone or somewhere to go to for souvenirs.” You stated as you wandered around the place. Many things caught you eye as you purchased some for your friends and had some breakfast over there. 

“Sumeru city is nice I didn’t think there would be a whole tree in the city! “ you told yourself as your gaze lingered on it before you pulled out your phone and started to eat. Trying to ignore the stares you recieved from others. Were they all in awe of you or were they trying to figure out what you are? Surely the scholars know you’re from inazuma and are kitsune. The ones that aren’t scholars may only know of you being inazuman.
