"Ayaka, Nilou, and Yoimiya are just random girls who didn't need to be a 5 star/relevant/are pointless" believers when I forcefully fucking remind them that the story in Inazuma and Sumeru is fundamentally fucking broken without them
The waifuification of Kamisato Ayaka makes me want to lose my fucking mind. Dear jesus lord no she was not MANIPULATING the Traveler, nor dangling a reward over their head, IT WAS A FUCKING DEAL. AYAKA WAS ALWAYS GOING TO BRING THE TRAVELLER TO THE RAIDEN SHOGUN, RESISTENCE OR NOT. She wanted them to see her side of the story, she wanted to give them a reason to help her, because it'd be mutually fucking beneficial and as a government offical that's basically her FUCKING JOB and it's not her fault Traveler canonly has a fucking savior complex
Yoimiya and Nilou are supposed to be the reasons WHY you want to save the nation. Yoimiya is there to show you the passion she has for her culture and heritage, her fucking sheer adoration for the nation she's lived her entire life in and that she WANTS it to get better because she's just as deserving of a good life as any other fucking Inazuman, AND BY ALL FUCKING MEANS IT'S NOT LIKE SHE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING THE ENTIRE QUEST. NOT ONLY IS SHE SUPPOSED TO SHOW YOU WHY INAZUMA IS LOVED, WHY INAZUMA IS A NATION WORTH SAVING, BUT SHE LITERALLY COMMITS SO MANY CRIMES FOR THE SAKE OF THE RESISTENCE. ARE WE FORGETTING WHEN SHE SMUGGLED PEOPLE OUT OF THE NATION, DESPITE THE SAKOKU DECREE? ARE WE FORGETTING WHEN SHE LET WANTED FUGITIVES HIDE IN HER HOME AND STORE?? ARE WE FORGETTING WHEN SHE MADE AND DISTRIBTUED FAKE VISIONS FOR THE VISION HOLDERS TO HAND TO THE SHOGUNATE SO THEY WOULDN'T LOSE THEIRS? She does SO MUCH she's SUPPOSED to be you want to keep fighting.
NILOU COMMITED SO MANY CRIMES TOO. DO YOU KNOW THE INSANE, BAFFALING IRONY WHEN YOU DUMB HER DOWN TO A RANDOM MOTHERFUCKER? She is the LAST of the believers of Lesser Lord Kusanali. She adores art and her nation, and she wants it to change for the better. Every day of her life until Azar is taken away, she's constantly discriminated against for following Kusanali, she's degraded and insulted in several main quests for her passion for dance, and her entire fucking livelyhood is threatened to be demolished CONSTANTLY, and she KEEPS FIGHTING because you NEED to see the good in this nation, and there NEEDS to be that good in the nation. What is Truth Amongst the Pages of Purma without Nilou??? Without her theater?? It's empty. In Miko's own fucking words, "A nation like that isn't one worth eternity." She puts EVERYTHING on the line for the quests. Had Alhaitham's plan fucking failed, she GENUINELY would've gone to jail for dancing in a public area. It's fucking banned. She was KEY to the plan going right, and she is the reason Sumeru was WORTH fighting for, why NAHIDA was worth fighting for. Fuck you they were not "just a random girl" you just hate optimism and women

Anyway congrats and thank you
Thank you! I hope you like it! (*^ v ^*)/)
Event Masterlist -------------------------
[Traveler's little helper event] [Aether, Ayato, Tighnari and Klee in Seirai Island]
When Tighnari with the rest of your group stepped on the beach of Seirai Island, he couldn’t help but feel worried. Not only there are storms around the Island, there seems to be one at the center as well. The sounds were unpleasant for his sensitive ears but not unbearable yet. -“Will you be alright Tighnari?” you asked, with worry written over your face. The Forest Ranger really like how you pay attention to everyone well beings, but still you’re the last person he would like to worry. -“Thank you for your concern but I’ll be fine.” Before you could say anything else, the young girl in red hat asked. -“Is Mister Fluffy not feeling good?” You and Paimon couldn’t help but giggle, Tighnari crossed his arms, clearly embarrassed at how Klee called him. He coughed into hand and then crouched in front of the young girl. -“My name is Tighnari, not Mister Fluffy.” -“Oh! Klee is sorry, didn’t wanted to make Mister Flu-.. Tighnari angry.” She looked sad, hiding her hands behind her back. -“I’m not angry, I just wanted to remind you of my name.” He patted her head. Klee smiled and then started to look around. You can tell she’s excited to be here. Ayato approached you and asked with a smile -“So what plans do you have for us today?” You thought for a moment. -“Hmm… we need to gather some Amakumo Fruits and get some Spectral Husks from Specters-” -“Don’t worry (Y/n)! Klee will find it!!” before you could react, the little girl started running deeper into island. -“Wah! Klee come back here!” you started to run after her. -“What are you waiting guys! Let’s go!” Paimon shouted at the boys and fly after you. Ayato and Tighnari looked at Aether who shrugged his shoulders and started to follow after you. -“It seems today will be very interesting day, don’t you agree Mister Tighnari?” Ayato asked with a smirk. Tighnari’s ear twitched, he didn’t like the look the Head of Kamisato Clan was giving him. -“We should catch up with them.” After that the forest Ranger started to run in direction your group went. Ayato chuckled and followed him.
Only little parts were left behind of Ruin Cruiser and Defender after the machines were meet with Klee’s bombs and Aether’s sword. Paimon gathered the parts that were laying on the ground and give them to Aether, while you were talking with Klee -“Klee please, don’t run away alone. We all should stay together, okay? Ah I don’t even want to know what Albedo and the rest would do to me if something bad happened to you.”  The little girl perked after hearing you mention her brother name. -“Klee will be okay!! Klee will protect (Y/n)!  So Albedo can-“ The girl stopped, remembering something. You looked at her with confusion -“So he can?” Paimon suddenly asked with curious look on her face. -“Ah..um…T-that’s a secret!” Klee started to wave her hands in front of her. -“Hmm… now Paimon is even more curious!”   Klee was avoiding looking at Paimon, while Paimon was saying that she promise to keep it secret. -“If it’s a secret you shouldn’t pry, Paimon” Aether finally spoke, the flying girl pouted but then she looked around. -“Where is Tighnari and Ayato?” -“I’m here!” Tighnari came, holding something in his hands. “Is this what you need?” He gave you Spectral Husks. -“Oh! Yes! Thank you! ... But wait… where is Ayato?” You looked behind Tighnari, trying to find blue haired man. -“Oh no! Did he got lost?!” Paimon panicked. “What are we going to tell Ayaka?! What if Shuumatsuban-!” -“Please don’t think like I’m already dead just because I took small detour.”  Ayato stood behind Paimon. -“Ek?!” Paimon screamed and hid behind Aether “D-Don’t scare Paimon like that!!” She said.
Ayato only smiled and then approached you. -“I found some Amakumo Fruits for you.” -“Oo! Thank you Ayato!” You took the fruits and put them with the rest in your little pocket dimension. Klee was looking between you and Yashiro Commissioner, then she suddenly hugged you while still looking at Ayato. You were surprised by little girl actions -“Is something wrong Klee?” You asked her. -“…” She was still looking at Ayato and then she spoke “(Y/n) is Klee big sister! You can’t take her away!” Everyone in group was surprised, then Ayato chuckled. -“Little Miss Klee, I’m not going to steal your ‘sister’. “ Klee nodded and then hold onto your hand. You never saw her behaving like this. The atmosphere felt awkward, Aether coughed, bringing everyone attention to him. -“We still need to find more fruits and Husks, so let’s go. (Y/n) stay close to me.”  -“There is no reason for her to be close to you, we all capable enough to protect her too, you know.” Aether stopped in his track, turning around to look at Kamisato who put his hand on your shoulder. Klee after seeing this started said. -“Klee and Dodoco will protect big sister!” -“I know you all strong but I feel better when she’s close to me.” Aether added. -“Yeah! (Y/n) is our companion after all!” Paimon joined. -“We all are companions now, aren’t we?” Tighnari's ear twitched with irritation. To your dismay the four people started the passive-aggressive argument. You noticed how Klee become silent and with one look at her face you could tell she was feeling uncomfortable. Finally you spoke. -“Alright! That’s enough! You all make Klee sad!” All the guys and Paimon looked at little girl, they started to feel bad for upsetting her. “ I don't understand why you even argue, let’s just all stay together, okay? And don’t separate like before! “ you sighed after that “I know I can’t fight but you all should be more concerned of yourself and each other than me…I would hate if something happened to any of you because of me…” you mumbled the last part but they still could hear it. -“(Y/n) is right, we all team now and we all should take care of each other.” Tighnari said and approached Klee. “I’m sorry Klee that I upset you, will you forgive me?” The girl looked at him and nodded with smile -“Yes! Klee forgives Mister Fl- Tighnari!” -“Paimon is sorry too!” -“I’m sorry too Klee.” Both Paimon and Aether apologized to the little girl. Klee smiled and said that she forgives them. -“I apologize for my behavior, little Miss. I hope you’ll find in your heart to forgive me as well.” Ayato smiled towards Klee, who took a bit of time to finally nod and accept his apology. After that, the whole group went on, together.
You all found a place where more Amakumo Fruits were growing, so you all started to collect them. You noticed how Tighnari was crouching in front one and writing something in his notes. Curious, you approached him. -“What are you writing, Mister Fluffy?” you ask him with lighter voice. The Fox boy looked at you, not amused how did you called him just now. -“I could only read about Amakumo Grass so this is good occasion to study them by myself before we leave the Island. It’s really interesting how this plant can only grow on Seirai Island with such environment.” He ripped off one fruit and motioned you to come closer “Come here, can you hear it?” Tighnari held the fruit close to your ear, you could hear it crackling with a tiny current. -“Oh! I never knew there is noise coming from it!” The Forest Ranger smiled, then opened the fruit. -“If you open it, you can see small electrics coming from it. This fruit is not edible for humans, only elemental creatures can consume it. It interesting that people still didn’t find anything they can use this fruit for… well expect you, of course. I suppose you do need them for something?” -“Yeah! This fruit will help me make my friends stronger. “ -”I thought so, are they perhaps use electro vision?” -“Well… one yes, other uses Dendro and is a Yōkai!” -“I see! That’s interesting… Dendro and Electro works well with each other so maybe-“ And Tighnari started to ramble. You don’t mind it, for you, Tighnari always looks cute when he speaks about flowers or plants, hearing the excitement in his voice and seeing smile on his face always put smile on your face too. Tighnari stopped talking after he realized how you were looking at him. Your lovely eyes focusing now only at him and your smile that he adores so much, make his heart beat a bit faster. He only hopes you won’t notice how his tail started to wag. For some time Tighnari wanted to invite your for a date but most of the time he’s busy or Aether and Paimon are by your side, they always too invite themselves to your both’s hangouts. Now the two of you are alone, this is a good chance to ask you. -“(Y/n), I been wondering, after we come back to Teapot would you-“ -“Big sister! Mister Tighnari!” Klee interrupted, running towards you two “Mister Ayato said that we have enough fruits! Let’s go search for monsters!” Tighnari looked behind him, there stood Ayato with that smile he disliked so much, waving at him.  You said ‘Coming!’ and got up, following the girl. Tighnari could only sighed. -“Maybe next time…”
Your group couldn’t find anymore Specters so you started to search for them on islands around Amakumo Peak. The boys held some competition, who will get more Specter Husks. What they didn’t expect is that Klee was the one who win in the end. With big smile she gave the Specter Husks to you. -“I’m sure brother would get more but Klee did good job, right?” -“Yes, of course! What would we do without you Klee?” you laughed and patted on the head the little girl. Then you turned towards the boys “But you all did good job too! Thank you boys!” Ayato was the first to respond, showing you his lovely smile -“Anything for you (Y/n)~” Paimon noticed how you were staring at the Kamisato so she flew in front him, to block his face from your view. -“How about a break and eat something? Paimon is really hungry!” she make puppy eyes and hold onto her stomach. You laughed and shook your head with a smile. -“Paimon is right, let’s find some pot and take a break.”
Aether was the one who volunteered to cook for everyone. The rest of the group fond some logs to sit on it, Klee quickly took place by your left side while Paimon sat by your right side. Mostly Klee and Paimon filled the air with their talks, sometimes Tighnari would join to the girls conversation. Ayato would go check how Aether cooking is going and you would only listen to girls talk and respond if they asked you something. After awhile the food was ready, Paimon called Aether and let him sit by your side while she smirked towards other two boys. They didn’t said anything but she could see their displeased expressions. Then Paimon said -“Aether makes the best food! Right (Y/n)?” you looked at her chewing the food and nodding with big smile.  “Fufu~ Future Aether’s wife will for sure be happy to have husband like him! Don’t you think (Y/n)?” Aether slightly blushed after hearing that, he took small glance at you, to see your reaction to what Paimon said. But you were only continue to smile. When you swallow the food you said. -“I think so too! His future wife will be so lucky to have him as a husband!” this made Aether red as tomato. Before other boys could say anything Paimon continued. -“He’s strong! And good looking! And let’s not forget that he’s the one helping in every nation with their problems!” -“Paimon I think that’s enough…” Aether covered his face with hands, feeling embarrassed. -“Aw don’t be shy Aether, Paimon is right! You’re truly incredible!” you patted him on his shoulder, Aether’s heart skipped a beat. He heard many compliments from many people but only yours make him feel this warm. He only wished the other guys wouldn’t be present now, he can tell that both of them are annoyed that he gets your attention. Aether really miss those days where only three of you would travel around the nations, yes, you still do that but lately it seems more and more people find time just to join to your group. Or worse, you tell him to relax in Teapot cause he has been ‘overworking’ himself while you take some people with you to do commissions so you still gain some mora. As long you go with girls he’s not worried but if you go with guys he can’t relax at all. He can tell how his male friends look at you, how they try to steal your heart. He can’t help but be afraid that you'll fell in love with one of them and decide to stay with them, just this thought make him feel sick on his stomach. When you got up, Aether come to reality from his thoughts. With a smile you said. -“There is one more place I want to take you all!”
-“Uwaa! There so many kitties!” Klee said and then run to play with the cats. -“It’s interesting how the weather is…different here. It’s like we not even on Seirai Island anymore.” Tighnari looked around, surprised at how he can't hear any storms, but he’s not complaining about it. -“So this is Asase Shrine? How interesting.” The Yashiro commissioner was watching Aether and Paimon approaching Black Cat. You smiled and patted Ayato’s arm. -“I like to call it…a cat island! I know you’re more of a dog person so if one day me and Aether find ‘dog island’ you’ll be the first I’ll show it to you!” Ayato chuckled and come a bit closer, whispering to your ear.. -“I hope you’ll keep this promise~” -“O-of course!” you stuttered, not expecting his face to be that close. Ayato was pleased with your reaction. You’re always adorable in his eyes. How much he wish to spend more alone time with you but with his busy schedule it’s hard. And even if he gets some time, there is always Aether by your side or other people. But now it seems others are busy. Tighnari talks with some adventurer that already been here when they come, Aether with Paimon spoke with Black Cat and little Klee is playing with other kittens. This was a chance. -“Would you like to take a small walk with me?” you looked at Ayato and nodded. He held his arm for you to hold on it, you hesitated for moment but then you put your arm around his and start walking on the small beach, of this part of island. When you both were walking, Ayato thanked you for being such good friend to Ayaka. -“That time you invited her for this…’pajama party’? When she came back the next day she was so happy, but she didn’t wanted to share what you girls were doing back there.” You laughed after hearing that. -“Well this is secret between girls!~ “ -“Hm, I expected you will say something like that.” Ayato chuckled and there was comfortable silence. You loved moments like this with your friends, no fighting, forgetting about all problems and just relaxing with people dear to you. And Ayato couldn't help but appreciate your beauty. You two stopped, watching the sea. The cool breeze caressed your skin.  -“How about coming to Kamisato residence and stay for a night? I’m sure Ayaka will be happy if you visit us.”   -“Thank you but I wouldn’t want to be burden-“ -“I would never think like that about you and the same goes for Ayaka. Even…Thoma… will be happy to see you.”  -“Hmm…” you hummed, deep in thought. “Then if it’s really not a problem I-“ -“There you are (Y/n)!!”  Paimon shout, flying towards where you and Ayato were standing and then she got between you too.  “We already done for today so Aether wants to come back to Teapot!...Hm? What are you two were talking about?” Paimon asked, looking innocently at Ayato. -“Oh! Ayato invited me to his house!” Paimon gasped -“We are going to Ayato’s house?! Yay! Paimon can’t wait to eat some delicious food!!” you sighed at that and shook your head “Paimon, please , stop thinking about food for a moment! So…when we can come, Ayato?” Paimon smirked at him. He knew she was doing it on purpose, but he doesn’t mind, after all Aether and her will be on his ‘territory’.  He smiled towards little girl. -“How about tomorrow?” -“Alright, I’ll go and tell Aether about our plans!” you replied with smile and went towards the Shrine. Paimon looked at Ayato and pouted. -“Don’t even think about stealing (Y/n) from us! Hmpf!” and with that she flew after you. Ayato only laughed at that.
When you all come back to Teapot, Klee immediately ran towards Albedo’s room. -“Thank you for today, later I need to go brush my tail…” then he whispered to your ear “if you want you can help me with it~” You looked at him surprised -“Really? Can I?” Tighnari doesn't let anyone touch his tail or ears but for reasons unknown to you he sometimes ask if you want to help brush his tail and you always accept to do so. -“Of course, just came to my room when you'll be ready.” And after that he went towards his room. Ayato approached you, putting his hand on your shoulder. -“Don’t forget about tomorrow.” He didn’t even waited for your reply and just went towards the kitchen. You sat on the couch, after so much walk your legs hurt. Aether joined to you but then he placed his head on your lap. You starter to play with his golden locks. -“Tired?” you asked. He only hummed in response, closing his eyes and enjoying your touch. After a moment Aether said. -“But today wasn’t that bad…” -“Yeah, we got so many Husks and fruits, we won’t have to visit Seirai for awhile~” That's not what Aether meant, he was glad that the other guys didn’t had too much time to speak with you alone. But the thought that there are more of them , just waiting for any chance to steal your lovely heart, makes him feel tired even more.

O9. his way of thanks [fanboy!scaramouche x drummer!reader] ⎯⎯ heartbeat rhythm series
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
the president of the decorating committee, keqing, makes her way to the front of the classroom. "okay, everyone. let's start planning on what we're going to do for this year's school festival. by the end of today's class, we should have our application submitted to the student council. any ideas?"
yoimiya excitedly proposes, "what about a maid café?" keqing smiles, "i don't know if the guys would be up to wearing those outfits." yoimiya pouts in response, "they could be butlers!" hu tao sputters, "that's boring. you know what we should do? a haunted house."
xingqiu glances at the brunette, "that does seem like your forte, hu tao." ayaka coyly suggests with a tilt of her head, "maybe a drama performance?" keqing uses a piece of chalk to list down the possible options on the board. yoimiya yelps, "why didn't you add the maid café idea!?"
scaramouche is sitting a seat away from you, watching you scribble little drawings on the corner of your desk. his pretty blue eyes deeply analyze your actions. everything you do is just so fascinating to him. "president, could you help us out?" keqing queries.
heizou nudges scaramouche, although it isn't enough to snap the male out of his trance. he hisses, "hey, scaramouche!" scaramouche mumbles, "drawing..."
keqing repeats in a confused state, "drawing?" heizou nervously laughs, "ha-ha, i think what he's trying to say is... ah, maybe we should do an art exhibition!" keqing hums, "interesting intake. any opposing of that idea?"
scaramouche finally gets back to the present and looks at heizou, who gives him a deadpan expression. "i just saved your ass! what caught your attention?" heizou whisper-shouts, scolding his friend. scaramouche glances back at you, where you still seem to be occupied with drawing little animals.
heizou teases him in a lilting tone, "of course."
after heizou leans towards his left side to tell xiao about it, the bell signals the end of class. scaramouche immediately stands up from his desk and goes to where venti's sitting. "hey, give me my headphones. you borrowed them long enough," scaramouche seethes. venti exclaims in return, "no way, the sound quality is so nice!"
the shorter male snatches the headset from him and venti frowns. "fine, i already know it's because you can't last a single day without listening to their drum solos." venti's playful whisper throws scaramouche off.
his complexion goes beet red as he places the headphones around his neck. kazuha lightly laughs, "your face says it all, scaramouche." scaramouche is bound to throw another snarky insult while leaving for the next class, however a tug at his sleeve stops him short.
he turns his head and raises his brow in confusion. "oh, (name). do you need anything?" scaramouche queries, trying to avoid your gaze as discreetly as possible. in the background, venti mocks him, "do you need anything?" scaramouche could clearly hear xiao, heizou and aether quietly chuckling.
"well, no, but yun jin told me to give this to you since she wants you to hear how much potential our band has." you hold out a cd in its case, covered in mostly black but with the unmistakenable, classic and iconic dark blue 5O5 graphics.
"she figured that if you did research on some of our past releases, you wouldn't have found our unreleased songs unless you went to our live performance. these are our most recents and we hope that it meets your standards," you politely say, arm sore from sticking out with the cd in your hand.
you didn't percieve the way he clenched his jaw in excitement, the way sparkles appeared in his eyes and the way he pursed his lips to restrain himself from smiling. "i'll... i'll see if i have any time to listen to it after class," scaramouche mutters. he ends up taking it from you and speed-walking out of the classroom.
xiao steps forward and gives you a few pats on the shoulder. "don't worry, that's his way of thanking you."

⇝ 24 - (✍︎) déjà vu
Tumblr media
“You look like shit.”
“Thank you, Tao.” You looked at her blankly. “The party the other day is still killing me.”
“You’re still hangover?” Ayaka looked at you in concern.
“Well- no, more like they’re hung over something or someone.” Lumine whispers the last part and you give her a glare that said to not spill anything more. She puts her hand up in mock surrender and does a motion with her fingers that ‘zipped’ her mouth.
“Is Venti gonna come with us?” You change the topic.
“Yeah, but he’s going to be late.”
“What’s taking Miko so long though?” You were starting to get impatient waiting at the entrance of the amusement park. After all, you all had agreed to meet here.
Lumine grumbled, “Obviously taking her sweet time with her girlfriend. Couples, I swear.”
“Now, what did I hear about couples?”
“Hey, Miko and Ei!” Ayaka is the first to greet them and you guys follow suit.
“Alright! First stop, the roller coaster!” Hu Tao excitedly exclaimed. She couldn’t wait to try the rides, but also put the plan in motion.
-
As much as you didn’t want to admit it. This amusement park was having a bigger effect than you initially thought. Looking around the place made you unbelievably sad for no reason— no scratch that, you knew why. You were grieving a relationship that could’ve blossomed but didn’t. But then again, what right did you have to grieve something that didn’t exist in the first place?
This was the place you and Scaramouche started to open up to each other, so there was definitely a lot of good moments you had with him. Your heart should be swelling up with joy because of the memories, but with the recent incident all you can feel is bitterness, sorrow, and anger. You can’t help but think about what could have been. The what ifs eating away your entire being.
You’re mad at Scaramouche for saying those nonsense about you. Whether you can forgive him or not depends on his apology, but you also don’t want to talk to him yet. You’re angry at yourself too. You’re not sure if it’s because despite it all there’s a part of you that yearns for him. Or it could be that you managed to like him at all. Or it could also be because you’re still hopeful. Hopeful that everything could go back to normal, to the time you were starting to get to know him better.
“Hey, why are you frowning so much?” Hu Tao asked from beside you on the rollercoaster, she frowned as well. She’s the type of person whose mood is easily affected by those around her.
“Nothing.” You shake your head, you try to give her a smile but it comes out looking strained.
“Alri— AHHHHHHH.” And the rollercoaster quickly took off.
-
“Do you get déjà vu~” Lumine sing-songed close to your ear and you jumped.
“Will you stop that? I just got goosebumps.” You made a face the same way you would when you smell something unpleasant.
“What? I just brought you back to reality.” She rolled her eyes. “Besides, you looked kinda pitiful just staring at your cotton candy.”
“I don’t even know why I bought it.”
“Give it to me, then.” Lumine does a ‘gimme’ motion with her hand.
“No.” You refuse and she gives you a dirty look before mutterring a ‘you’re not gonna eat it anyway.’ You take a piece of it to prove Lumine wrong.
The cotton candy ended up leaving a bitter aftertaste in your mouth.
-
“Oh, Venti!”
“And Scara…” When you caught sight of Venti’s group, your eyes were quick to search for him.
‘Why is he here? Is this why Venti was late?’
“Perfect timing! We were about to ride the ferris wheel, especially since we can only ride it in pairs.” Hu Tao nudged the ferris wheel conductor. “Right?”
Bullshit.
“Y-yes.” The poor guy agreed as he rubbed the spot that Hu Tao nudged harshly.
You don’t know how they managed to make the guy agree.
“Hey, Lumine do you wanna—?” You didn’t even get to finish your sentence before Lumine is already dragging her brother in one of the booth.
“Sorry, I’m going with Aether.” Okay. That was weird, Lumine choosing Aether?
“Well, I’m obviously going with Ei.” Miko is quick to make her way inside. “Good luck figuring this out though.”
“Hu Tao and I will be partners!” Venti announced.
You glanced at Ayaka, “How about you?”
“Kazuha and I agreed to be partners for this one.” She gives a sheepish smile.
“It’s me and Xiao for this one.” Childe gives you an apologetic smile.
Well. That’s wonderful. Absolutely terrific. You are going to be stuck with Scaramouche for the whole ride. But then again, once all of them gets inside no one will be able to stop you from not riding it.
“Don’t even think about ditching on us.” Venti is already behind you before you can even think about your plan.
“I thought you were already inside.” You grumbled.
“Just call it a gut feeling.”
“Fuck you.” You flip him off.
“Aww, you love me so much.”
-
Scara tried his hardest to calm down. He felt like he was suffocating and his hands was starting to feel clammy. He wiped down his sweaty hands on his jeans every few seconds.
‘Just say it. It’s only two words.’
“I’m sorry” was what he wanted to say, but when he tried uttering the words they ended up drowning in his throat. He swallowed and tried again, “I’m sorry.”
A crack in his voice. He wanted nothing more than to disappear right here, right now. Especially since silence enveloped the two of you, and not the comfortable one.
One minute. Two. Then three minutes. He was starting to think, you didn’t hear him. Or you were deliberately ignoring him. He’s biting his lips in anticipation and nervousness now.
‘Maybe I should say it louder?’
“I’m sorry too.” You continue to stare at the window. “I’m sorry for saying those harsh words to you.”
“It’s not your fault.” He’s baffled why you’re apologizing. “It’s my fault. I was an asshole for no reason at all. You don’t have to apologize.”
“That’s true, but I could’ve handled it better.” You finally look at him. “But anyway, why were you an asshole?”
He falls silent and casts his gaze on the floor, “I was jealous and angry.”
You look at him in shock then you laugh. You can’t help but laugh at the absurdity of it, because, wow, you also felt mad and jealous when you said those words towards him.
“Sorry, I shouldn’t laugh.” You cough to recompose yourself.
“It’s okay, I know I shouldn’t have lost my shit just because I was jealous.”
“No, no, I get it.”
Silence again, but now it’s less tense than before.
“Sorry, I can’t forgive you.” You said firmly. “Not yet, at least.”
Scara looks disappointed, but then it changes to a defeated look. It’s like he’s seen this coming and has accepted it. He smiled sadly, “It’s fine. I’ll wait for you until you’re ready to forgive me.”
“No, Kuni. I want you to work for it. I want you to earn my trust and forgiveness. You can’t let time do it for you. If you want it, do it yourself.”
“Are you giving me the blessing to court you?” An attempt to make a joke.
“Yeah.”
“Oh.” Why were you so nonchalant about it?! Scara stared at you with bewildered eyes.
Bonus:
“Can you read their lips?”
“No, it’s too dark.” Venti squinted his eyes.
“Goddammit.”
-
“Uh, fine weather isn’t it?” Childe attempted to make a conversation.
“…”
Childe has been at it for the past 5 minutes. He’s tried to make Xiao talk to no avail. He swears he loses a year of his life the longer this goes on.
-
“Move, bitch.”
“You, move.”
“STOP MOVING, AETHER. IT’S WOBBLING.”
“FUCK.”
-
“How has it been?” Kazuha kindly asked.
“Hectic and exhausting.” Ayaka sighed deeply.
“I get it.” Kazuha nodded in understanding.
-
As for Ei and Miko, they were just doing what couples would usually do in a ferris wheel.

Chapter Twenty-Six: The End... of Us?
Alhaitham has the looks and the smarts. He will also be the stand-in CEO for his grandfather's company for a year.
But, he's been mysteriously cursed to turn into a cat every night since his eighteenth birthday… until he meets you, an employee at his grandfather's company, who rescues him as a cat and changes him back with one kiss.
Alhaitham/You
Notes:
Cross-posted on AO3
Female reader
Chapter index at the end of chapter one
Alhaitham is the only one outside your family who accompanies you to visit your father’s grave as Childe has left for Snezhnaya. After paying your respects, the four of you are walking together when your mother says, “This is the first time you brought someone special to visit.”
You and Alhaitham exchange a little smile.
“I can already imagine the reaction,” Aether says. “He’d be like”—he puts his hands to his cheeks and looks surprised—“oh, finally!”
“Very funny,” you deadpan. Then, you gently nudge your sister. “But maybe he would be more surprised at the friends-to-lovers story.”
Lumine slightly blushes, and your mother laughs. “It’s just you now, Aether.”
“Yeah. How’re things with Ayaka?” Lumine asks.
“Ayaka?” your mother asks. She looks at Aether. “Who’s this friend of yours?”
Aether gives Lumine a deadpan look, and she smiles. “I’ll tell you later,” Aether says.
They reach the entrance, and your mother turns to you. "Well, are you two going to head off somewhere?"
Lumine coughs loudly. “Y’know… we still haven’t forgotten the pictures of that date you said you would be going on.”
“Ugh,” Aether groans, “I’d rather not see people get lovey-dovey after what I saw—”
“Isn’t there a street fair happening nearby?” Lumine interrupts. “We should go there together!”
So, that’s how you and Alhaitham end up following your mother and siblings to the street fair. You and Alhaitham are holding hands, trailing behind everyone else.
Should he tell you about his conversation with his mother? He has his suspicions, but the last thing he wants is to burden you with them. They might not even be true. Yet, he can’t get that conversation out of his head. 
“Hey, handsome.”
Alhaitham turns and sees you looking at him curiously.
“Thinking about something?”
Is it that obvious?
“You haven’t said anything in a while.”
Ah.
He smiles slightly and kisses you on the head. But before he can say anything, you hear someone call Aether's name.
“A-Ayaka? What are you doing here?”
“We were just passing by."
He isn't showing much of his face, but you recognize the voice anywhere. Ayato appears behind his sister, wearing a hat and a face mask. However, even behind it, you know he's smiling with the look in his eyes. You and Alhaitham walk up to them, everyone saying their hellos. Then, you do a quick introduction to your mother.
Aether looks worriedly at Ayaka, but she already knows what's on his mind. "Don't worry. I have my medication with me." He visibly relaxes, and she loops her arm around his, surprising him. Then, quietly, she says, "...We didn't get to finish our date that day."
Aether turns red. “D-date?”
Lumine laughs. “I… never knew Ayaka could be so bold.”
Eventually, you, Alhaitham, and Ayato are sitting together at a café while Ayaka is exploring the fair with your family.
“Purpose?” you ask.
Ayato puts his coffee down. "It's what I've been thinking about since I lost the lead role. I did want it, but I didn't realize that an actor must put a lot of thought into their characters. Their motivations, desires, drive... The more I thought about it, the more I started thinking about my own life. What's my purpose to act if not for monetary gain?"
“Do you have an answer?” Alhaitham asks.
After a photo shoot, Ayato had Thoma drive him to the hospital to accompany Ayaka for her checkup.
Ayato was patiently waiting outside a hospital room when he felt he was being watched. He turned and happened to see a girl peeking out behind a corner. As soon as he saw her, she quickly moved out of sight.
“Something wrong?”
Ayato turned around and saw Thoma walk up. “I thought I saw someone around the corner.”
“...Don’t tell me it’s a crazy fan or something.”
“That’s what I thought,” Ayato admitted. “But… it doesn't feel that way.”
The door slid open, and Ayaka stepped out with the doctor as he says, "She's in good health. Nothing to worry about. However, I prescribed her some medication that she should carry with her. Just to be safe."
“Thank you, Doctor.” Then, Ayato looked at her sister. “Shall we go?”
“Actually… is there something you can do for me?”
Ayato and Thoma glanced at each other. “What is it?”
As Ayaka led them to a room, she told them about a freshman in high school she shared a room with on the day she had that heart scare with Aether. After Ayato had left, she slid the curtains separating their beds, and they started a conversation. It was then Ayaka learned that the girl was Ayato's fan.
“...She was going through a difficult time because she had just lost her brother,” Ayaka said quietly. “...She tried to follow him. That’s why she’s here.”
Soon, Ayaka stopped in front of a hospital room on the same floor. She slid the door open and Ayato saw a familiar girl sitting on the bed. She looked like the same girl he saw earlier peeking around the corner. As soon as she saw them, she visibly froze.
Ayaka smiled at her. “Hi! Do you remember me?”
"I… I can't believe you really brought him here!"
“I promised. Didn’t I?”
Then, as if gathering her courage, she finally looked Ayato in the eyes. “I’m sorry I seemed to be spying on you earlier… I knew Ayaka was coming, so I came to see her. I wasn’t expecting to see you.”
Ayato smiled at her. “Not at all. I heard from Ayaka that you kept her company when she stayed here. So, thank you.”
“N-no! I mean… I should be thanking you!”
“Me?”
The girl smiled. "I read your interview on Teyvat Vogue a couple of years ago. You talked about your upbringing… and why you went into the industry. I thought it was very moving."
Ayato remembered. It was the first interview he'd ever gone into more detail about his ex-fianceé. If only this girl knew that the reason why he went into the industry was now the reason why he felt so lost right now.
“...You brought me strength that I wasn’t alone," she continues, "and I was doing something right.”
Ayato and Thoma glanced at each other. Doing something right? As much as Ayato wanted to know, he knew better than to pry into the private lives of others, let alone a fan.
"...While I don't know what you're going through," Ayato began, "You're never alone. There's always someone somewhere who's going through something similar." Then, he smiled. "I'm glad sharing bits of my story gave you strength."
“I’ve heard of people being inspired by the stories of others. But after talking with her, it felt more personal,” Ayato says. “Of course, she didn’t go into detail about what she was dealing with, but it did give me a fresh perspective on my career and myself.”
You nod. "Sometimes, all we see are numbers of our work. But when you really talk to someone about how much you've impacted them, it hits differently."
“Yes… she said I gave her strength. But I also drew strength from her, as cliché as that may sound." Ayato smiles. "Which is why I will keep trying. For myself and others.”
“That’s quite a healthy outlook,” Alhaitham says.
"Once you land that lead role, we have to celebrate," you say.
Ayato laughs. “Are you sure you’re not using it as an excuse?”
“How can you say that?” you ask, acting hurt.
“Once I do, you and The Strays will be the first to know.”
“We’ll hold you to that,” Alhaitham says with a small smile.
“Yes!” you say. “We’d better not find out through some media article.”
“Why do I suddenly feel pressured?”
After a short laugh, you see Aether tapping on the glass window beside your table. He points at you and then at a nearby food cart that already has a lineup. You look in the direction he's pointing and see a large sign for fried ice cream. Then, you see Aether make an eating gesture, and you look at Ayato and Alhaitham. But before you can say anything, they already know what's on your mind.
“Go ahead,” Ayato says. “We’ll be here.”
Alhaitham watches you leave the café, and his small smile slowly starts to fade, something that Ayato catches.
“Hey,” he says, and Alhaitham looks at him. “Is everything all right?”
“...Yes and no.”
“...I’m always willing to lend an ear.”
Alhaitham exhales deeply. “I’ve been suspecting something that may or may not be true. One of the options is to ask the person it involves… but I can’t do that because of various reasons. Another option is to do a little investigating myself. However…”
“...You’re scared of what you might find,” Ayato finishes quietly.
“...It’s the first time I’ve felt this way.”
"If I were you… I'd do it, anyway." Ayato picks up his coffee. "Knowing the truth is always better than living in the dark. But I bet you already knew that. You just want another push to know you're doing the right thing."
The right thing… Is it truly the right thing? He would be prying into your private life without your knowledge. Shouldn’t he talk about it with you first? But that would involve mentioning his mother’s conversation and his suspicions.
“It involves her, doesn’t it?”
Alhaitham looks up from his coffee. He doesn’t want to answer that question, but Ayato takes his silence as an answer.
“...May I offer an opinion?” Ayato continues.
“Go ahead.”
"If it involves her, no matter how scary or troubling, I think she would appreciate you talking with her. I… know that Thoma had good intentions when he kept my ex's true cause of death a secret. But no matter how painful the truth was, it made me think how differently I would live if I knew the truth."
Eventually, Alhaitham gives him a subtle smile. “...Yes, I think you're right. Thanks, Ayato.”
“I know you two will get through this.”
◆◆◆
Despite what's on his mind, Alhaitham is still preparing dinner for two that evening. What's the best way to talk to you about his suspicions? You're coming over tonight, so he intends to bring it up. He just took the lasagna out of the oven when his phone goes off. Alhaitham takes off his oven mitts and walks over to the kitchen counter. As soon as he sees the name on the screen, he answers it.
“Mom?”
“Haitham… are you home? I’m outside of your apartment.”
“Is everything all right?”
“...There’s something I have to talk to you about.”
Alhaitham stiffens. “...What is it?”
“Can we talk? Face to face?”
Alhaitham glances at the time. “She’s going to be here for dinner soon. …Perhaps we should have dinner together.”
A small pause.
“...Actually, I’d rather talk to you privately.”
Well, that confirms his suspicions.
“It’s about her, isn’t it?”
His mother sighs. “I told you no more secrets, didn’t I?”
“Is this about her father?”
Another pause.
“...I’m going to talk to her tonight,” Alhaitham continues. “I’m going to ask if she knows whether her parents knew you—”
“No!”
The sudden outburst makes Alhaitham's eyes widen, and he tightens his grip on his phone. Does this mean that what he suspects is true? Does his mother really have something to do with your father's death?
“...You know something. What is it?” When his mother remains silent, he firmly says, “Tell me.”
“...Her father got a heart attack on the street. I… was there. It was the day of one of the most important presentations in my career, and I… I accidentally hit him.”
Alhaitham’s eyes widen. “You… what?”
“I wanted to help. Truly I did! But… my phone was dead, and I didn’t know what else to do! A woman called the ambulance and—”
“Did you kill—”
“No! No, I didn’t! Please believe me, Haitham. I did not kill her father. Just let me finish.”
Alhaitham sits on the couch, his hands slightly shaking and his heart racing a million miles per minute. This cannot be happening.
“The car accident only made his injuries and… suffering worse," his mother continues as calmly as she can. "But it wasn’t the cause of his death.”
“...In other words, you could’ve saved him if you brought him to the hospital. You… left an innocent man to die on the streets, Mother.”
“Please… Haitham… you don’t… you don’t understand. That presentation was—”
“I will never understand. You chose a presentation over someone’s life… I cannot—”
“I would not be where I am today if I didn’t make that choice,” his mother says, her voice shaking.
“...How do you know? Life has so many different paths that can lead to the same outcome. But you… you chose one that shows how truly hideous human beings can be.”
His mother falls to her knees. “I… I never could’ve imagined that you would end up dating his daughter.”
“...Her father died a long time ago.” Alhaitham’s gaze hardens. “Just how long have you kept this secret?”
“I am not a person without a conscience, Haitham… I went to therapy because of what I did. I felt… so, so guilty.”
“...And?”
A pause.
"You said you felt guilty," Alhaitham continues. "...What did you do about it? Did you keep hiding it? Were you thinking of putting the past behind you?"
“Yes! I had to move on, Haitham. I couldn’t live in that past forever!” She takes a small breath. “I am sure if you ask her the same thing, she would agree with me. Her father’s gone. Her family also had to move on from this!”
“Do they know the truth?”
“I didn’t kill him.”
“But you could’ve saved him.”
The silence is deafening until…
“...You aren’t going to tell her, are you?” Alhaitham asks.
“...There’s nothing to say. What she doesn’t know won’t hurt her.”
“You’re going to keep running away.”
“I’m not running away!”
Alhaitham stands, a furious look in his eyes. “You’re talking about this because you’re still haunted by the past. You may not have killed him, but why does it feel like you’re seeking acceptance?”
“...Acceptance?”
“...Tell me your reason for telling me about this now. What do you want me to say?”
She has no answer.
“Do you want me to tell you that it’s okay?” Alhaitham asks. “Comfort you as if you’re a child?” He rubs the space between his brows. “You want to tell her, Mother. You want to tell her about what you did and have her tell you that you did nothing wrong. That’s the acceptance you’re looking for.” He inhales sharply. “But you’re too afraid.”
“...You should know I’m not someone to look for someone’s acceptance. I don’t want to hurt her, Haitham. I don’t want to hurt the relationship you have with her.”
So, what is he supposed to do with his information? Hide it from you? 
“She deserves to know this,” Alhaitham says quietly.
“Haitham… how can you think about telling her? You’re risking—”
“...My relationship with her?”
He sighs. He can’t find the words as he never thought his relationship with you might be jeopardized because of what someone else did. It's not even a misunderstanding. While he has nothing to do with this absurd situation, how will you feel knowing you’re dating the son of the woman who left your father to die on the streets? Alhaitham sits down and closes his eyes for a brief moment.
When will this nightmare end?
“...Haitham, I promised you that there would be no more secrets between us. This is me keeping that promise. And… because I did, I’m hoping you will promise to keep this secret just between us.”
“...I don’t know if I can keep that promise.”
Before his mother can say anything else, Alhaitham ends the call. His back is against the couch, his eyes on the ceiling. Then, he put a hand on his forehead and close his eyes. That's when it hits him. He opens his eyes and looks at the time. You should be here by now.
He thinks about texting you, but you’re right across the hall, so—
As soon as he opens his door, he freezes upon seeing you. You look pale and shocked. How long have you been standing there?
He quietly says your name, and you flinch as if snapping out of a trance when you look up. But then the look in your eyes shifts into something Alhaitham has never seen. Anger? Frustration? Confusion?
“...Were you talking about me?” But before Alhaitham can say anything, you ask, “Your mother… had something to do with how my father died?”
He says your name again and moves to put his hands on your shoulders. But when you move away from him, he feels his heart shatter.
“Does she?” you ask again.
“...She does,” Alhaitham answers. Then, as calmly as he can, he tells you what he knows.
He can see the gears turning in your head. Perhaps you’re trying to match her story to what you know about your father’s death. You only mentioned that your father was in an accident and your mother made the decision to take him off life support. But do you know the full story?
“...I don’t… I don’t understand,” you say. “My Mom has never told me this.” Does this mean not even your mother knows? But that's impossible, right? “...I’m sorry. Could we… have dinner another time?”
As soon as Alhaitham nods, you immediately head back into your suite, leaving him scared and powerless.
◆◆◆
Your mother is at home watching TV with Aether and Lumine when she gets a call from you. As soon as she hears the confusion and frustration in your voice, she quickly moves into her room and closes the door.
“Take a deep breath,” your mother says. “What’s going on?”
“You said Dad wanted to be taken off life support because of the complications after his heart attack,” you say. “...But was he also hit by a car?”
Your mother’s face pales. “...Why are you asking?”
“Just… just answer me, please.”
She sits on the edge of her bed. “...He was.”
Your heart almost stops.
“I didn’t lie to you,” she continues. “Your father’s body wasn’t in the best condition when his heart attack happened. But because of the car accident, he was left partially paralyzed. He… didn’t want to live a life where I had to constantly take care of him. He also didn’t want you to carry this burden of thinking you have to care for him when you're older.” You hear her voice break when she says, "He didn't want you to give up your future because of him."
You clench your fists as you try to calm the sudden pain in your chest.
“...Why didn’t you tell me?” you ask, your voice shaking. “I… I didn’t know about this.”
“...You were so young. We didn’t want to hurt you.”
You take a deep breath. “Did you ever find the person who hit Dad?”
“...We tried. The woman who called the ambulance didn’t get her licence plate number in time. …But I know it’s a woman who hit him.” Your mother exhales sharply. “Why are you suddenly asking about this?”
"...What if I told you I could find this person?"
“How in the world are you going to do that?”
“I have my ways.”
And then you end the call.
You drop your phone on the couch beside you and bury your face in your hands. Everything is quiet except for the violent storm inside your heart as you relive the grief, pain, and anxiety your younger self felt many years ago.
He may have died when you were very young, but you can't count the number of times you wish he was still here... to alleviate your mother's pressure of being a single parent and give you guidance in life. Except this time, you're also coming to terms it's your boyfriend's mother who's partly responsible for this pain and suffering.
What will you do now? Are you a terrible person if you continue being with Alhaitham, the son of the woman who left your father to die?
Suddenly, you hear a knock at the door.
You shouldn't be surprised when you see Alhaitham, who looks extremely worried.
“I—”
You both stop.
“There’s—”
You both stop again.
Alhaitham gestures for you to go first.
“...I want to talk to your mother.”
"...I'll do everything I can to get her to talk to you," Alhaitham says. 
You clench your fists. "Does she want to keep running away?"
He wants to hug you, but it's as if something is holding him back. Perhaps it's the look on your face. You're obviously still processing this newfound grief that his mother was involved in your father's death, but there's also something else. It's as if you're fighting with something.
"Let me talk with her," Alhaitham says seriously. "I'll do something about this. I promise."
When you stay silent, he cautiously puts his hand on your cheek. You don't pull away, so he slowly pushes you toward him until he holds you tightly. He feels your arms around him, and he kisses your head.
“...I’m sorry… about all of this,” he says quietly.
“...It’s not your fault.” Then, you slowly let him go and step back. “But… I just need a little time to process all of this.”
Are you hinting at what he thinks you're hinting at?
With a downcast look on your face, you finally ask, "...Could we take a little break?"

32: how to stay sober challenge: failed ♤
Tumblr media
CW: mentions of alcohol, heavy drinking
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Your POV
26 February, Saturday, 8.54pm
Location: Childe's house
The moment you arrived at Childe's house, you were amazed. There were already so many people there, despite the party starting not too long ago. And they seemed to be having the time of their lives. Well, why wouldn't they? After all, Childe's parties were known to be one of the most extravagant parties of all time.
"Hey, what time did Ayaka say she was coming? I don't see her yet," Lumine asked.
"She said she would be arriving with her brother at around 9-ish, I think." Yoimiya replied, checking her phone to see if she got the info correct.
"Oooo, her brother is coming as well? Can't believe I get to see the handsome Ayato again lmao, isn't that right yn?"
"....."
"yn?"
"......"
"Yo, earth to yn, you good?"
"O-oh sorry my bad, I was just spacing out, what did you say?"
"Is everything alright yn? I've noticed that you've been spacing out a lot lately."
"It's nothing Lumine, I was just thinking about some stuff, that's all."
Truth be told, you were feeling guilty. Now that you were finally hanging out with Lumine for the first time in a while, you couldn't help but recall the moments you've spent with her brother, and how they led you to slowly catching feelings for him, even though Lumine told you not to. And now, at the mention of the word 'brother', you were feeling even more guilty.
One, over the fact you've caught feelings for your bestfriend's brother, and two, the fact that you were now avoiding the said brother.
You knew that Aether didn't deserve the treatment you were giving him right now, but you couldn't help it. You can't afford to hang out with him again.
At least, not yet.
Until you've gotten rid of these 'stupid' feelings, you can't hang out with him like you used to.
Because the more you hang out with him, the more you felt yourself falling deep.
Was this really the best choice though?
You weren't sure.
.
.
.
"How's it going ladies? Are you enjoying the party? Well of course you are. Who wouldn't?"
".... You're a really terrible host you know."
"Ouch! Harsh words Xiao, harsh words..." The two guys had came to your group to see how you guys were doing.
At least, that's what you thought. You were just scrolling on twitter, paying no mind to their conversation, but a certain name made you look up from your phone.
"Hey Xiao, have you seen Aether? He said that he was coming to the party with you guys."
"He should be somewhere around here.... ah there he is, looks like he's coming our way."
"What."
Lumine turned to look at you, giving you a confused look.
"Why do you look so shocked yn? Did you think that Aether was not going to come to the party?"
"Haha of course not.... I definitely knew that..."
Tumblr media
You were panicking in your mind as you saw the blond boy approach your group. And you swear, you saw him light up a little the moment the both of you held eye contact. In a few seconds, he was already standing right in front of you.
"Hey yn!"
"Oh hi Aether!"
"Helloo??? We're here as well you know."
"I know, I just chose to ignore you, that's all."
"HAHA"
"Why are you even my brother...."
You watched as the twins started to bicker, but as they were doing so, you noticed how Aether's eyes kept on lingering back to you. You tried your best to look at anyone but him, but you couldn't.
He looked mesmerising that night. You couldn't point out what it was, and you couldn't help but wonder, was this a symptom of your crush on the blond boy?
That you would always find him beautiful no matter how he looked or dressed?
Probably.
"It seems like you keep on staring at him. Does he look that good to you?"
You flinched at the sudden statement and turned to look at the person who said it.
It was none other than Xiao. Seems like he was watching your every move for some reason.
"What the hell Xiao?!! Don't sneak up on me like that."
"You haven't denied it yet."
"I-I-..... argh whatever, Lumine, Tao let's go get drinks, I need a few right now."
"YEAH THAT'S MORE LIKE IT YN! LET'S GO!"
"Hey w-wait yn! There's something I need to talk to you about-"
"Maybe later Aether? I want to get a few shots now, if you don't mind..."
"Oh, yeah sure, I'll wait for you." He said, giving you a small smile.
You would pay to see him smile again, but you know that that would make you fall for him even more than you already have. So you quickly turned around and left to get drinks with Hu Tao and Lumine.
"Sorry Aether, I think I might have pushed her a little more than I should have.."
"It's fine Xiao, I'll just talk to her later..."
"Best of luck, my dear comrade! You definitely need it."
"Thanks.... I guess..."
.
.
.
.
.
10.27pm
It had been almost an hour since you went to get shots with Lumine and Hu Tao. But now, you were left all alone, drinking by yourself. Lumine got dragged away by some of her other friends while Hu Tao just disappeared.
Usually you would be worried, but that night you didn't want to care about anyone else, just yourself.
Shot by shot, you kept on drinking, trying to drown your thoughts in the alcohol. Out of nowhere, a voice interrupted your drinking.
"Oh? It's you yn! Drinking all by yourself I see, mind if I join you?" You could recognise that voice anywhere.
"Of course the first place I would find you would be at the bar, Venti."
"Eheh, so I'll take that as a yes then," He said, as he plopped himself next to you.
"Now, mind telling me why you're moping by yourself? Hmm?"
"Just got some stuff on my mind."
"And by some stuff do you mean Aether?"
What?
Your eyes widened in shock as you turned to face Venti.
"W-What are you talking about-"
"It's obvious, yn. There's no use in denying it lol."
"..... was it really that obvious?"
"Yup."
"Oh god, what the hell am I supposed to do now."
"Easy! Just tell him you like him!"
"I can't do that Venti."
"Why not? I don't see what's so difficult about that-"
"It's not about whether it's difficult or not, it's whether if I should or not."
Venti looked at you, confused. You just sighed, before continuing.
"Lumine doesn't want me to date Aether, and if I decide to confess, she'll definitely be mad at me."
"And why is that?"
"Isn't it obvious?? She doesn't want me to date her brother! And if I do, then I'm just going against her word."
"But why is it any of her business in the first place? She doesn't get to control who you like or not, likewise with Aether. He's his own man with his own feelings, just like you. Your free to like whoever you want."
"But what if I don't want to confess? Can't I just forget this crush and move on with my life?"
"Well, you can do that, but the question is, do you want to?"
You sat in silence as you pondered over Venti's question.
"Do I want to? Of course I do? Why else do you think I'm avoiding Aether right now?"
"Ok then tell me this, how do you feel, when you're avoiding Aether like this right now?"
How do I feel?
"..... awful.... sad....."
"And?"
"It feels as if a part of me is missing, you know. I guess I miss his company."
"And there you go! That's your answer!"
"But isn't it normal to feel like this, since I'm avoiding him and all-"
"You still don't get the point, do you?"
You shook your head no, and watched as Venti sighed in defeat.
"Wow okay, just answer me this last question. How do you think you would feel if Aether gets into a relationship with someone else? Someone that's not you?"
What?
Aether, in a relationship with someone else?
You couldn't help but feel saddened at the thought, of not being the one with Aether.
Before you could open your mouth to speak, Venti shushed you, before saying,
"I believe you have your answer, and you don't have to tell me. Just go with what your heart wants yn, that's my only advice to you. I'll take my leave now."
And with that, Venti left, leaving you with just your thoughts.
Just go with what your heart wants
.....
Should I really go with what my heart wants?
.
.
.
You were about to take another shot of your drink, when you heard someone call out your name. You turned around to see Aether walking towards you.
"Oh right, he did say that there was something he wanted to talk to me about," You thought.
As you were watching him come towards you, you suddenly saw a purple-haired girl come up to Aether, and for some reason they're..... talking and laughing with each other?
She was probably a friend of his, but you couldn't help but feel a little uneasy over how 'touchy' she was with him. Your mind then recalled what Venti said earlier.
"How do you think you would feel if Aether gets into a relationship with someone else? Someone that's not you?"
Was this what he meant?
You watched as Aether and the girl soon walked away with each other, and that made you devastated. "Wasn't he just coming up to talk to me? Why did he walk away with her?" You thought.
Wait.....
Is this what it feels like to be.... jealous?
Overwhelmed with your emotions and thoughts, you took a shot of your drink. And another. And another. And another.
You didn't like being jealous, it was an ugly feeling. Despite drinking so many shots, you still weren't able to get rid of the feeling.
You didn't like how Aether walked away from you with that girl. You wanted to be the one by his side.
But isn't this what you deserved? After all, you were the one avoiding him in the first place.
Just because you didn't want to upset your bestfriend.
But now, all that didn't matter.
You didn't want to avoid Aether anymore.
You just wanted to tell Aether the truth.
The truth about your feelings.
You stood up from your seat, stumbling a little. You drank a little too much than you should've, causing you to not think straight.
But you wanted to find Aether, no, you needed to find Aether.
So you headed in the direction where Aether went with the girl.

FROM THE START
trailer
“My name is Kamisato Ayaka. What is yours?”
——————————————————————————————————
Has it ever happened to you?
You recognize someone because you see them everyday on social media.
You see their every move. It’s like.. you’re close.
——————————————————————————————————
[name]’s introduction; trailer version.
My name is [name]. I’m a Liyuean girl who moved to Inazuma to study.
It’s like I moved to a universe I don’t know…
and I just met the center of this universe.
she’s Ayaka, the beautiful flower of the universe.
she’s more gorgeous in person than in photos.
——————————————————————————————————
aya[name] first conversation; [name]’s pov.
“My name is Kamisato Ayaka, what is yours?”
“I…I’m [name].”
“Delighted to make your acquaintance, [name].” Ayaka slightly bowed her head before walking away.
she’s even cuter and prettier in person than in photos.
——————————————————————————————————
WHEN AN INTROVERT’S FLOWER BLOOMS CLOSER.
——————————————————————————————————
Ayaka is a popular girl at V-isions School.
I’ve been quietly following her on Instagram.
At home, at night, petting your dog, Latte, your phone rang with a notification.
[INSTAGRAM
K_AYAKA has followed you back]
you screamed, “GOD! Latte!!! Ayaka just followed me!” to which your dog barked at.
——————————————————————————————————
ATTRACTED BY THE BEAUTY OF A FLOWER FROM A NEW UNIVERSE
——————————————————————————————————
CHECKING HOROSCOPES AND CONSTELLATIONS
Mona and Kaedehara Kazuha were sitting at the same table as you like always. They’ve found out your crush on Ayaka.
“What day does your birthday fall on? Mon, Tue, Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat, or Sunday?” Mona asked.
“My birthday was on [birth_day].” you quickly responded.
——————————————————————————————————
WILL THEY GET THE HINT OR STICK TO HELPLESS FLIRTING?
“[name], what you did today was so cool.” said Ayaka.
“Really?!” you asked.
——————————————————————————————————
“Every time you smile, I don’t know what to do with myself.” you told Ayaka nervously, to which she smiled.
“Are you flirting?” replied Ayaka with a slight smirk.
——————————————————————————————————
THE ROPES OF JEALOUSY;
“Beautiful flowers are for a beautiful girl like you, [name].” Childe said with a smirk. He’s your ex although you see each other as like siblings. Why is he acting like this?..
“Ajax… Are you hitting on [name]?” Ayaka asked with a hint of jealousy (more like jealousy is all of her tone but [name] thinks she’s too sweet so she doesn’t see it)
“Let’s just say that [name] is special to me.” replied Childe.
——————————————————————————————————
ACCEPT THE HELP?
“[name], you don’t know how to play basketball, do you? I’ll show you the ropes.” Ayaka said while holding a basketball
[end scene]
——————————————————————————————————
REACH HER?
“Why is it like this? You like each other, care for each other, but you’re not in a relationship.”
——————————————————————————————————
FIND A SOLUTION?
“Do you really like Ayaka, human? If so, this is your chance to tell her the truth.” Xiao said in a matter-of-factly tone
“I don’t know what to do… If I tell Ayaka that I’m actually ‘Seed’, she would be disappointed that I’m not a guy like she thought I was.”
——————————————————————————————————
CONFESSING YOUR FEELINGS….
“I like you, Ayaka. Would you like to be my girlfriend?” you said as Ayaka smiled.
——————————————————————————————————
AND… WILL OTHERS AROUND YOU FIND LOVE?
“This means we’re friends now, Xiao.” Aether said as their index fingers touched the other’s index finger.
——————————————————————————————————
END OF TRAILER. STAY TUNED.
——————————————————————————————————
notes: this didn’t turn out how i wanted it ro be but by the time i work on the other episodes i’ll have improved.

Relationship tropes w/ Genshin Boys
Dainsleif, Aether, Childe x gn!reader
idea inspired by miss.livai on tiktok!
content; fluff, angst, gore
A/N i wrote Dain and Aether’s parts months ago and just finished writing Childe’s today so I’m sorry if they seem less passionate!
Sun + moon
Dainsleif
“You are like the sun. You burn passionately, you shine brightly, you light peoples worlds up. I am the moon. I hide in darkness, I shine only on those who’ll allow me to. We are so vastly different, yet so alike.”
You met Dainsleif through the traveler, Dainsleif came off as cold hearted, he looked as if he were annoyed 24/7. However, the more you two adventured, the more he opened up. You came to realize he wasn’t as cold and mean as he seemed.
You two were like complete opposites though, he was closed off, cold, you were bright, open to everyone. You let everyone in, he was reserved. From an outsiders point of view, you two were total opposites.
You knew the truth, however. He was a softie, he cared for others so much, he observed people every chance he’d get. You were no different. The only difference is that you’d actually talk to said people, Dainsleif was always too afraid to talk to others. Dainsleif knew others looked at him weirdly so he never approached them.
You were different though, he felt safe with you. You were one of the few people he let in. You two grew close quickly, he didn’t understand his feelings but you did. You knew you liked him from the minute you saw him, he liked you from day one as well but he never knew. He never had such strong feelings before, he didn’t understand why he was so overprotective of you and not others like the traveler.
He told you about these feelings he had hoping you’d help him understand why he was acting this way and you just blushed. You couldn’t believe what he was saying, he liked you… the same way you liked him. You told Dainsleif what these romantic feelings were, he didn’t deny it. “Maybe I do want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you allow me to?”
His eagerness and willingness to want to be with you forever made you blush a bright pink. secretly, he loved seeing you be a blushing mess. you would shove your face into your hands or occasionally, which is his absolute favorite, you would shove your face into his chest. he loved being with you and seeing expressions only he could see. 
though you two liked each other the same way, you didn’t start dating immediately. You two took a bit more time to get to know each other aka Dain wanted to ask you out properly. It didnt take long though, took about two weeks.
You guys have been inseparable since, you two were always seen together and when you two weren’t, people questioned where the other was. You were his sunshine and he was your moonlight. You two shined together, without the other you wouldn’t shine as brightly in your own ways. That’s what everyone loves about you two.
BLOOD, ANGST, DEATH WARNING!
Lovers to enemies
Aether
You met Aether through the adventures guild, you were commissioned with him to show him into one of the caves he offered to help clear out. You were strong but he still wanted to make sure you were safe so he protected you.
You two were commissioned together a lot more often and became really good friends. Though he traveled all throughout tyvet, he always came back to mondstadt to see you and catch up with you. “You’ve gotten so much stronger since the last time we talked, Y/N!”
Soon, he changed. He started coming around less often, started ignoring your text and calls, you even asked around and people said he started looking grumpy. You went as far as to go to inazuma to see him.
When you got to inazuma, you saw him with other people such as Ayaka, Yoimiya, Ayato, Thoma, and Sayu. A part of you felt, jealous. You two weren’t exclusive but you thought he liked you. You watched them for a bit before his friends signaled to him saying someone was watching all of them, he turned around to see you, you couldn’t hide around the corner in time. He excused himself from them and went to you.
“What are you doing in inazuma, Y/N?” he didn’t even look happy to see you. it hurt. “I got worried so I came looking for you.” you said softly, waiting for him to tell you to return to mondstadt. he smiled and chuckled instead. “Sorry i haven’t been back in a while, i’ve been working for the Raiden Shogun for a bit here. I’m so glad you came, though it was most likely dangerous, I’m glad to see you here!” he gave you another smile. it looked so genuine. you couldn’t help but smile back.
He introduced you to his friends as his partner. HIS PARTNER! One of his friends looked disappointed, like she was saying “oh.. so you do have a partner..” But you were just over the moon hearing him call you his partner. Later on, you asked him about it. “Ah sorry, I guess I forgot to confess my love towards you when we talked earlier. I love you, Y/N, please go out with me!” he said it so calmly but you knew his heart was beating really fast. “Of course silly! I’d be honored to be your partner!”
You stayed in Inazuma for another week before returning, Aether escorted you and spent two days with you in your home. You knew he had to go back soon, though. It broke you, you felt like you just got him back and he was leaving already. “I’ll be back as soon as I can, I love you, I’ll text you every moment I get my love.” He kissed you both on your lips and forehead, and then went off. You both looked so sad without each other, or so that’s what everyone saw.
Soon though, things changed. Aether was good about texted you or letting you know before hand if he was gonna be busy. It stopped one day. You went back to the whole spamming him and asking if he was alright. No response from him. Spam calls, text, you even went as far as to call the adventures guild in inazuma to hear updates about him. You stopped one day, the day you realized it was over. You didn’t want to admit it because aether was so good to you before he left you again. There was no point, you were done, he was done, why drag it on?
“Aether, I don’t know what’s going on with you but i’m sorry. I cant do this anymore. You never return my calls, You never respond to my text. I don’t know why, but I’m tired of waiting for the answer. If you’re back in mondstadt, we can talk about it. Until then, I guess this is goodbye. Thank you for everything, I’ll always love you.” You sent the message with tears in your eyes and you deleted his number.
No response. Neither a phone call or text. “So it is over, huh.” Just as you said that, your door bell rang. You weren’t expecting anyone, who could it be. “Coming!” You open the door and your heart dropped. It was Aether, he… came back for you? No, stop it. He didn’t reply for a reason. It was over, Don’t go back to it.
“Im sorry.” Was his first words. He didn’t look at you the entire time though, he just looked at the ground. “I know I messed up, I’m not begging for you back either. I don’t think i’m good enough for that. I just hope you know I genuinely did love you and I still do. I hope you find someone who treats you the way you deserve to be treated.” And he left. He didn’t even let you reply. He just… left.
You stopped thinking about him, and then… a commission. “In Inazuma some chaos has occurred and apparently it’s Aether. Go check it out please, i’ve sent everyone else over there too. Now go.” You’ve never ran faster to your horse.
True enough, it was Aether. He wasn’t himself. he was… evil. What the hell happened to him. “We have to kill him before he kills everyone in Inazuma!” Someone screamed and everyone seemed to agree. You couldn’t breathe. Kill… Aether? how did it get like this… why did it get like this. Before you could think, he took off. Everyone ran after him trying to kill him. You stayed there shocked. Soon enough, you dragged yourself along with the crowd. One by one they fell. Every single one. Until it was you.
“Ah, if it isn’t the love of my life!” His voice was so… evil. It wasn’t Aether. “Why… what happened… why did you leave me. WHY DID THIS HAPPEN AETHER?” you screamed. he laughed. all he did was laugh. Tears fell down your cheeks. “It’s pointless, hun. You’ll die to me, You’re nowhere near as strong as me anymore!” “Kill me then.” He snapped out of it for a second. “Kill… You?” he asked quietly. “Kill me. Do it. End me. I don’t want to live knowing I let this happen to you. I don’t want to live knowing I can’t save you anymore.” He got.. mad. He rushed at you, slammed you by your throat to a wall behind you.
You coughed but you didn’t wanna seem weak. Suddenly, he snapped. He let go of your throat and put his hand in his hair, almost ripping it out. “Run, Y/N! I don’t want to hurt you.. please… you’re the only thing i’ve ever loved… RUN.” But you didn’t. You stayed. You hugged him. You cried. “I cant. I’m sorry Aether. Just kill me. Please. I don’t want to live without you. Please.. KILL ME ALREADY!” You screamed. Suddenly, you lost your breathe. “I’m so sorry Y/N. I’ll always love you. I’m sorry it has to end like this. I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry I-“ he started but you replaced his words with a kiss. A deep and lovingly kiss. It reminded you of how much you loved him and reminded you you wouldn’t be able to live without him. You bleed out in his arms. The more blood, the more you started collapsing and falling onto him. Your last moments alive, he was repeating how sorry he was, he told you he’d see you soon, he said he’d treat you better in the after life. all you could do was just kiss him and wipe his tears away. “I love you.” You said as you closed your eyes and died in his arms.
Right person, wrong situation
Childe
You two were destined to destroy from the minute you two met. You two were chaotic and would give the traveler a headache anytime the two of you were commissioned with them. You two soon became the bestest of friends. The two of you were never meant to meet, you met by total coincidence, but it was the best mistake to have ever happened to the two of you. You gave him chaotic ideas to fuel his ever chaotic personality. You were more than happy being his partner in crime, being able to inspire him to be his inner chaotic self. A part of you was happy to be able to see a side of him no one else really saw, but soon it made you feel a weird way.
Tartaglia would give everyone the cold sholder and a death glare but you, he looked at you the same way he’d look at his siblings. It felt nice, it was warm, you felt special. You soon became doubtful, however, you werent sure if he did this on purpose or not, you were scared what made you feel so special meant nothing to him. You weren’t sure how he felt, but if he hadn’t felt the same way you have started to feel for him, you don’t know what you’d do. He never gave you any signs of wanting romance in his life, you didn’t even know if he was single or not. You hadn’t known anything when it came to romance and him. It made you wonder a bit.
“Childe, can I ask you a question?” “Shoot.” You two were sitting on the top of a hill in Liyue, you haven’t spoken to him in a month due to him being out working for the fatui. You had to get it out of him tonight, you had to ask if he felt the same way you did. “I’ve been thinking about this for a while now. I like you, Ajax. I don’t know how you feel about me but I just wanted you to know how I felt before you left for another commission out of Liyue.” You turned to look at him with a smile. “Y/N….” “It’s okay, I understand if you don’t feel the same way-“ “It’s not that. I do like you, I just don’t want to put your life in danger. My work is very dangerous and you… I don’t want anything to happen to you. I want to keep you safe.” “I know how to defend myself, Ajax. You don’t have to worry about me, I promise.” He was still worried and you knew he was, but he couldn’t help but smile. “Then, will you be my partner, Y/N?” “I thought you’d never ask.”
Ajax had another commission out of Liyue not long after you two started dating, it had barely been a week since he left and you already missed him. You’d usually sit on the same hill you confessed to him 2 or 3 nights a week, it was like your comfort place. Today was no different than those other days, you’d take your headphones and listen to music as you’d watch over the city of Liyue. You didn’t know when Ajax would be back but you couldn’t wait to be with him again. Suddenly, you felt a tap on your shoulder and when you turned around- “AJAX!” “Hi there lovely” you quickly got up to hug him, “I missed you, welcome back!” “I missed you too, I’m so glad to be back.” He kissed you, a genuine, loving, kiss.
Ajax didn’t go on commissions out of Liyue for a bit after that and it was wonderful. Having him around even if it was just at night meant the world to you. You two often spent your afternoons watching tv and cuddling up at home together. On weekends, you two would go visit his family every 2-3 months. Everything was going perfectly, he spoiled you like crazy and showed you off to everyone. He would sometimes slip and eve be call you his soon to be spouse. You thought everything was going perfectly, you two seemed so in love, you two were in love.
Like most lovely things, it came to an end. Ajax got commissioned out of Liyue more and more frequently and even with all the effort you put in, it wasn’t enough. You couldn’t get ahold of Ajax, you had no other option but to go find him. You knew it was dangerous, you vaguely knew the area he was commissioned to be in and you left not thinking clearly how badly it was going to be. You looked and looked for him, you couldn’t go back now, you were too far from home. There was no going back and you knew it, you had to figure out where Ajax has been one way or another. And soon enough you found your answer.
Ajax had gone completely insane, he went on a killing spree. This wasn’t the Ajax you knew, the Ajax you loved. Ajax was too far gone, you couldn’t recognize him and you doubt he could recognize himself. Even if you tried stopping him, he wouldn’t listen to you, you’d just end up being a sacrifice. At times like these, you wished he would’ve never gotten involved with the fatui, you wished he wouldn’t have to be apart of them, you wished he had it easier. Without thinking, you went up to him. “STOP. What is going on, what are you doing?” “You shouldn’t be here, Y/N.” His voice was empty, hallow. “This is why I haven’t been able to get a hold of you? What happened to us. What happened to you.” “This isn’t the time, Y/N. Get out of here before I-“ “BEFORE YOU WHAT? YOU KILL ME? IS THAT WHAT? DO IT THEN! KILL M-“ without being able to finish your sentence, you felt a sharp pain in your chest. “I’m sorry, Y/N, I promise you I am. I didn’t want to do this, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.” Tears engulfed your eyes, the realization that your own lover just stabbed you started to set in. “Ajax…” you collapsed onto him bringing him down to the ground. Though he just stabbed you, he couldn’t let you fall to the floor like you were nothing.
as he starred into your teary eyes, he leaned over and kissed you. “I’m sorry it had to end this way…I love you.” Before dying, you saw him begin to cry. You held out your hand, it was too late. Your hand plopped onto his leg as you repeated back to him “I love you.”
after your death, Ajax was never able to find another lover. Your death left so much pain in his heart, he couldn’t find anyone to replace you. He didn’t want to replace you, he didn’t go a day without regretting his career choice. You both knew that this was bound to happen, you were waiting for the day to happen. He missed you everyday, he doesn’t live much longer after your death. He commits to the fatui until his final days. Even as he got stabbed and was left to bleed out, he felt so happy to be able to come back to you. He was so excited to be able to hold you again and not have to dread living without you. He couldn’t wait to die, he couldn’t wait to be free with you again.

it's totally not 5am, I totally don't need to write down my thought immediately
ideas:
Reader tells Ayaka and Yoimiya about the interaction as soon as she meets them outside.
in the mall Ayaka notices the duo of Heizou and Xiao and decided to go up to talk to the two, excusing herself quickly by saying she is gonna go check something quickly
The two are understandable confused on why Ayaka decided to go up to them, but while she knows it might be wrong she feels the need to ask them about Kazuha's behaviour
Heizou is first to question her wanting to know such a thing
Ayaka swiftly replying that its information for a friend
Xiao, a bit annoyed, asks why that friend doesn't just ask Kazuha themselves then, or why she is coming to them now, not Kazuha
Ayaka swiftly answering that her friend is too shy to do so and that since Kazuha hasn't replied to anyone with any reasoning she thought she might as well try with her friends
Xiao is cut off from saying "bullshit" by Heizou thinking he has a clue on who that friend might be
"You're talking about [name], aren't you? She's the only one actually shy around Kazuha and on top of that your friend. Tell me why would she wish to know about this so badly?"
"I'm quite certain you can already make a pretty good guess on the reasoning behind my friend's actions, can't you?"
"Oh? you're gonna make me say it first now so you won't get into trouble?"
"No, I'll gladly say it as it is as long as you promise me to tell me what's up with Kazuha."
"Deal."
"So-"
"What are you two talking about? Heizou you can't just tell her about Kazuha's personal affairs, that goes too far."
"Xiao, let her talk. My intuition tells me that we're about to get quite important information to help our dear friend."
"If I may now? [Name] is worried about Kazuha for she has fallen for him for a very, very long time now but has always been too shy to act on those feelings. Too shy to even act without looking stupid around him. Though it seems like she's finally starting to try."
Astonished look from Xiao, pleased look from Heizou.
"So I guessed right after all. Xiao you and Kazuha really should stop doubting me!"
Ayaka now demands their part of the deal and they swiftly explain that Venti overheard them talk and ever since Kazuha been sad, wanting to be left alone to mull. About how Kazuha has been in love with you and how he feels sad by the fact youre seemingly very uncomfortable around him.
"So practically, we have two idiotic cowards in love that have yet to ever actually talk one on one at all."-Xiao
"Actually," and so Ayaka is the first to tell them about the interaction between Kazuha and you, making sure to tell them each detail that you told her and Yoimiya as soon as you came out of the building with that dorky smile.
The three share their LINE accounts with each other
Needless to say later on when on a call Xiao and Heizou really need to not just tell Kazuha everything to not just confess for you without you even knowing.
They notice Kazuha still falling silent the whole time, this time instead of letting him mull or have Venti try and take his mind off things with fun, Heizou instead inquires sneakily about what happened after school.
"So Kazuha, quite silent huh? Did anything happen today?"
A bit flustered Kazuha stumbles upon his words, shaken awake from his conflicting emotions trying to accept defeat in romance that you like someone else but also oh so deeply in love and that interaction of you actualy talking to him and trying to cheer him up, he still has yet to eat the lollipop
Heizou immediately jumps on him and says "so something did happen?" , Kazuha really feels like it's strange for Heizou to seemingly already know that something might've happened but he guesses that that's just him being the detective type guy he is
Kazuha doesn't even get the chance to start to explain before Venti jumps into the questions to
Aether has to calm the 2 down to give Kazuha time to talk, if he wants to, but he too is curious now, Kazuha has yet to deny the accusation
Xiao just listens/watches
After Kazuha explains what happened and then continues with how conflicted he's feeling about this even though he knows that you already like someone else
Xiao being quixker to replu than the others
"are you sure you're not the person of interest here for [name]?"
"Wait Xiao?! I thiught you were the one agreeing to not make assumptions with nothing to back it up??" Yeah Kazuha was really confused and suspicious now. Did something happen that he didn't know about
Ayaka hadn't acted any different but she had a bit of a wider smile? maybe?
she eventually told you and Yoimiya that she saw Heizou and Xiao and now got their LINE accounts, winking and saying she might be able to get Kazuha's too now.
You are so perplexed at how she just got those
She eventually came up with the idea of maybe meeting up with the boys once in awhile, if not to get you more comfortable with Kazuha as well as possibly getting to know him more
you can't really shake off that offer with the two looking at you so expectantly, if Kazuha and other boys also agree on it
cue the making of a big group chat
You totally before the exams have Ayaka eventually tell you that she all of a sudden has no time to help you study almost right before the exams. Everyone else also has no time and Heizou is just like
"actually Kazuha is quite good at teaching! he might be able to help you!"
you internally freak out unknown to you the same goes to Kazuha who is too spooked to even reply
Venti just chimes in like
"yeah yeah! I'm pretty sure the last time we talked Kazuha said he would be free this day!"
eventually Kazuha accepts the setting up of his friends as a chance and after calming down says that if you'll let him try and teach you he'd be glad to help
let's just say that Yoimiya almost took your phone and replied for you had you not replied quickly
you and Kazuha ended up chatting in private about when and where to meet
Tumblr media
title: two points of view pairing(s): kaedahara kazuha, reader characters: kaedahara kazuha, reader, xiao, aether, shikanoin heizou, kamisato ayaka, yoimiya, beidou, yelan word count: 12.6k synopsis: you want him to look at you the same way as you do. But little did you know, you have the same point of view.

Thoma x Top!Male!Reader [Smut]
Warning; praising, dumbification, rimming, master kink, face sitting.
Masterlist.
Game; Genshin Impact
With a small smile as he bowed, (M/n) turned around and left the Kamisato Estate.
He was done with his work, at least for now, and of course, Ayaka never missed her chance at teasing him like she always did.
The light-blue-haired girl was fully aware of the massive crush he had on a certain blond housekeeper, but (M/n) never attempted anything more than just his casual flirting with Thoma, his reactions always amused him, seeing him getting all flustered and anxious was somehow a fuel to his ego, well, until Thoma started flirting back.
Sometimes, he would be one left flustered, but it only made his heart pound faster as his inevitable urges kicked in every time it happened. Of course, he always knew how to keep a composed expression, as if he was internally freaking out, but the only two people that realized...
Were the Kamisato siblings.
Obviously, both siblings realized Thoma's reactions and behavior, getting to the conclusion of how much these two were head over heels for each other, but were way too dense to notice it.
However, later in the day, when (M/n) was patrolling the stress of Inazuma City, greeting every worker he saw on his way, he noticed Aether, the traveler, talking with Paimon.
Like a good and well-behaved male, he greeted them with a friendly smile, Paimon staring at him with a shine in her eyes.
"(M/n)! How nice seeing you!" The male blinked a couple of times, before letting out a small chuckle.
"I'll buy some food, Paimon," the floating girl did a little spin, laughing and raising her arms, exclaiming a 'Hurray!' while the blond next to her just shook his head with a deep sigh, "I'll buy some too, Aether."
The blond looked up at him and showed a tiny smile, before the three of them ahead to the Restaurant Shimura, giving a brief wave at Katheryne before sitting down.
While they ate happily, Paimon seemed to remember something they were doing earlier in the day, so she flew towards (M/n) ending up in the middle of both males.
"(M/n), did you know that Thoma is gonna give a class about domestic duties?" The (h/c) haired male blinked at the flying girl and blink a couple of times.
"I actually had no idea about that, Paimon." She clapped her little hands in joy and stared into his (e/c) eyes.
"Then why don't come too? The class is tomorrow in the Kamisato Estate and starts close to midday!" (M/n) smiled and nodded.
"Okay, I'll be there..."
//////
It was close to seven in the morning, and (M/n) was already awake, patrolling for a while and checking up on everyone that might've needed his help.
Somehow, despite being caught in some fights with Samurais and Fatuis, he managed to defeat them all just in time for Thoma's class to start. He ran towards the Kamisato Estate, through the open doors, and caught his breath.
He looked up and sighed, making eye contact with Thoma from the opposite side and he smirked at the blond, making him get flustered and forget for a moment what he was saying. (M/n) just walked closer and stood at the back, his arms crossed over his chest as he stared at Thoma, not really paying attention to what he was saying.
Just now he realized how long it's been since they saw each other, so he wanted to appreciate the beauty for as long as he could.
Well, at some point in the next couple of hours or so, the class was over and everyone left, except for Aether, who help Thoma with the benches, moving them away.
(M/n) waited until Aether and Paimon waved them goodbye before turning to look at Thoma, nibbling his bottom lip as he thought of how he could say what he had in mind.
"There..." Thoma stared at him, and something about the dark look in (M/n)'s eyes made his body tremble, making him gulp as he fidgeted in his place. "There was something that you didn't mention about the domestic duties of a housekeeper and... I thought you could tell me about them..." he stepped closer to the blond, gently gracing his waist as he leaned closer, his breath hitting Thoma's ear, "In private~"
The blond felt a shiver running down his spine, his breath getting stuck in his throat and he squirmed as he tried to find the words to answer.
"S-sure, uh... should we g-go now...?" (M/n) held in a smirk and held Thoma's hand, dragging him out of the Kamisato Estate, all the way to Komore Teahouse.
Of course, as the walk there was quite far, they kinda took their time getting there, avoiding walking paths where there could be Hilichurls or Mirror Maidens. They walked across the lake and got to Byakko Plain, now Thoma was having fun.
He would stop every few minutes to play with dogs and cats that were out in the evening, and (M/n) would simply stare at him, a dazed look in his (e/c) eyes whenever Thoma would laugh out loud. And then, whenever he remembered what he was going to try to accomplish flashed in his mind, he would turn a dark red and look away, attempting to hide his blushing face.
Well, the moment they reached the city and headed to Komore Teahouse, the sun was already set, and the stars accompanied the moon as they shone down on them.
(M/n) took his key to the place and opened the front door. He had been living here for about five years now, when Kamisato Ayato found him sleeping close to the shore during the summer after a year of being homeless. The older male took him to his younger sister in Komore Teahouse and they discussed what to do, along with what had happened to him.
Long story short, (M/n) still didn't have a home, but he had a place where he could come back to sleep and eat at night when the place closed.
(M/n) held the door open for Thoma, winking at him and making the blond blush as he lowered his head, walking past him and inside the place. Taromaru woke up at the sound of keys and door opening and closing, wagging his tail at Thoma as soon as he saw him.
"Hey, buddy~ it's been a while since I came here, right?" He said with a big smile, patting the dog's head. (M/n) leaned over Thoma's back to look at Taromaru, not realizing his crotch was pressing against Thoma's lower back, making him flinch and bite his lip, taking a deep breath to calm himself down.
"You've been good, Taro? Ayaka-san gave you food and water, right?" The dog barked once and slowly started laying down on the counter, closing his eyes, and falling asleep. "Okay, come on."
(M/n) walked towards the room he usually slept in, his futon already laid down making him smile as he guessed Ayaka did that for him. He signaled Thoma to sit down at the table while he started taking off his uniform's clothes, the blond looked away while he heard the sound of ruffling clothing as it was taken off.
(M/n) stretched a bit, groaning as he heard those satisfying 'pops' coming off his body and he turned around to look at Thoma. The blond was still looking away with a pink hue on his face, and (M/n) found fluttering that Thoma would blush because of him.
He sat down across from Thoma, and they stayed in complete silence for a couple of minutes, until the blond finally got over his flustered state and looked at (M/n) again, already fully clothed in some baggy clothing to sleep in.
"So... what was the thing I didn't mention in class?" (M/n) made eye contact with Thoma, and he stood once more and with a smirk on his face -along with a pounding heart- he walked towards Thoma and stood behind him, kneeling on the ground and wrapping his arms around his waist.
(M/n) leaned down, his hot breath against Thoma's ear and neck, making a shiver run his spine as he held in a whimper, "I was curious about..." he lifted one of his hands, gently holding Thoma's chin and turning his face to look at him, his blushing face and glossy eyes made (M/n) slightly bite his lip, "How does a male wife sound when he's being fucked dumb by his husband..."
And like that, (M/n) joined their lips together in a hungry kiss, making Thoma let out a muffled whimper as he turned around to face the (h/c) haired male, only to be pushed gently onto the ground.
"Tell me how good I'm making you feel, baby..."
//////
"Th-that... feels so good, (M/n)~" Thoma let out soft whimpers at the new sensation inside his body.
(M/n)'s tongue was pushed inside him, lapping around his tight muscle walls coating them with saliva, occasionally pulling out to lick his rim, kissing it softly before pushing it back inside, successfully making Thoma's body tremble as he cried with pleasure and pleaded for more.
(M/n) held tightly onto Thoma's hips, groaning at the pleasure he felt knowing that the blond was feeling good thanks to him, his erection twitching against his stomach.
Thoma closed his eyes tightly, his breath turning rapid as his hands reached blindly to grip (M/n)'s (h/c) locks, grinding his hips back and forth on his face, moaning and whining at the knot tightening in his lower abdomen.
The male under him just kept fucking him with his tongue, his eyes clouded with lust and desire as he stared at Thoma's expression. The blond had tears running down his face, his mouth wide open allowing breathy moans to get out and short breaths to get in.
"I...I'm g-gonna... I'm gonna cu-cum, (M/n)... I'm c-cumming..." taking his tongue out, (M/n) made Thoma whine at the loss of his hot tongue inside him, but (M/n) had something else in mind.
He let go of Thoma's hips, wrapping his arms around his thighs to hold his leaking erection, opening his mouth, and sticking his tongue out.
Thoma's body trembled as he tried to back away, fearing how good (M/n)'s mouth was going to feel wrapping his sensitive, leaking cock, but the male under him didn't let him move an inch.
He lifted his head enough and placed Thoma's red and oozing tip on his tongue, soon wrapping his lips on it and bobbing his head as much as he could, tasting the slightly sweet flavor of his pre-cum.
Thoma's body started trembling uncontrollably, his hand pulling on (M/n)'s hair, biting his lip as his legs started closing around his head. Soon, his body convulsed, his back arching and throwing his head back with a loud moan as his cum spilled inside (M/n)'s mouth.
He didn't even blink as his (e/c) eyes witnessed Thoma's mind-breaking orgasm, enjoying his thighs holding his head in place and admiring how he looked with his eyes rolled back, drool dripping down his chin.
(M/n) took Thoma's softening cock out of his mouth and swallowed all the cum that pooled on his tongue.
After a few seconds of catching his breath, Thoma's body topples forward, barely holding himself with his hands above (M/n)'s head.
"Your such a good boy, Thoma." The blond would've turned a dark red if it was possible, his trembling legs taking his body off of (M/n)'s chest. The male sat up and gently held Thoma's chin, leaning forward and kissing him, making the blond moan at the sweet flavor of his own cum. "But we're not done yet."
Pushing his weak body on the ground, (M/n) held Thoma's legs apart, staring at his dripping pink entrance, something that made the blond whine, his hips shaking as he tightened his hole around the air.
"D-don't stare at i-it..." he whispered covering his face as he tried to close his legs, but didn't (M/n) didn't let him. Letting go of his thighs, (M/n) leaned down, stroking Thoma's hair, watching it sprawled on the ground, and he pressed his lips on the back of the blond's hand.
"You're so beautiful, Thoma, and... I'm so crazy in love with you, we can... stop here if you're not ready, okay?" He whispered sweetly, Thoma felt a shiver run down his spine, inevitably feeling (M/n)'s erection pressing against his thigh.
Thoma moved his hand away from his face and stared into (M/n)'s eyes.
"I-I'm... in love with you too, (M/n), and you... you can keep going, but, be gentle, please..." was what he responded, shyly glancing away, his blushing face making (M/n) smile with happiness.
"Of course I'll be gentle, baby... I'm gonna taste you all night~" Thoma whimpered at his words, soon feeling something hard and wet pressing on his entrance, being slowly pushed in. (M/n) stayed still with just the tip in, taking deep breaths as he tried to keep himself under control. "Fuck... you're so wet inside, Thoma."
His groans caused a tingly sensation on the blond's stomach, his arms reaching up to hold (M/n)'s shoulder and lifting his legs to wrap them around his waist.
"P-put it in... a-all in, please..." he mumbled with tears filling his eyes. (M/n) bit his lip and started pushing his entire length, Thoma's wet and hot, tight walls made him gasp and moan.
"I love you... so much, Thoma." (M/n) muttered with gritted teeth, hiding his face on the blond's neck, grinding his hips at a slow pace, his breath getting stuck in his throat whenever Thoma would clench around him.
"Please, move fa-faster... master~" he whispered shyly, feeling flustered at how turned on it made him feel calling the (h/c) haired male 'master'.
And god, did (M/n) like it too.
He backed away from Thoma's neck, causing his arms to fall on either side of his body, and (M/n) spread his legs apart, holding them close to Thoma's shoulders, in a mating press position.
Snapping his hips back and forth, the sound of their skin slapping filled the room, Thoma's back arching and his eyes rolling into the back of his head, his hands desperately trying to grip onto something, needy whines leaving his parted lips.
"Damn, baby... you take my cock so good~ it feels... so good inside you." (M/n) leaned down to press their lips together.
His rapid thrusting made Thoma's mind just turn dumb, his prostate being stimulated every time (M/n)'s cock would be fully inside him. His tongue hung out and his body trembled, desperately holding onto the (h/c) haired male's arms.
"M-master~ I lo-love you, master..." Thoma mumbled between whimpers. "I love... you."
(M/n) gritted his teeth as his pace sped up, enjoying the fucked dumb expression Thoma had, along with his high-pitched moans. He just kept moving, his thrusts getting rough the longer it passed, causing Thoma's moans to turn louder.
The blond had his tongue out, blabbering 'I love you, master' over and again, holding (M/n) tightly, closer to his body.
"You've turned dumb because of my cock, angel? So pretty~" Thoma's body trembled, his pre-cum staining his abdomen and he tightened around (M/n)'s hard cock, making him growl. "So eager... you're so cute, Thoma." He muttered, kissing his tear-stained cheeks, lowering to his mouth, and holding his hanging tongue in between his lips, sucking it softly.
"'m go... gonna cum, ma-...master~" (M/n) smirked and let go of Thoma's legs, wrapping his arms around his waist, kissing him lovingly.
"I'm gonna cum too, angel..." he mumbled against Thoma's lips, his thrusts turning sloppy, but he held his orgasm in, wanting Thoma to cum first.
With a loud cry of his name, the blond came on himself, his body twitching and weak, his eyelids heavy with exhaustion. (M/n) let out a groan and pulled out, jerking himself off as he came on Thoma's stomach, their cum mixing.
The blond looked down at his stained body and pressed his finger on some of (M/n)'s cum, lifting his hand to his mouth and licking his finger clean, all the while making eye contact with the now flustered (h/c) haired male.
(M/n) glanced away as he heard Thoma chuckling, and he stood up, picking up his underwear and putting it on before heading to behind the counter as he looked for something to clean up the mess they made, along with all the cum on Thoma's body.

7 Minutes In Heaven With Aether(Collab)(Gender Neutral!Reader)
Tumblr media
A.N: Hello! So this is my participation in the event organized by @kreideprinzessin and I’m super happy to participate in an event of an author that I absolutely adore ^^ I hope you guys will like reading this! :))
Warnings: Modern!AU and a small mention of jealousy
Genre: Fluff/Kinda suggestive? (All is SFW)
Word count: 777
I proof-read it, but if there is any mistake that I missed don't hesitate to tell me :))
Tumblr media Tumblr media
How did you get here again?
Ah, yes. You let your friends bring you to this party even tho you didn't really want to go.
A few hours before...
"Come on [your name]! You never go to parties! Come with us at least one time? Pleaseee?", said Amber
"Plus my brother will be there", responded Lumine with a small smirk on her face.
Your friends all knew about your crush on the blonde-braided men and wanted to help you start to make a move.
"Come on guys", you said blushing a bit, "I'm pretty sure he just sees me as a friend anyways".
"I'm sure that no, but still you don't know if you don't try! Come at least an hour with us and you can leave after if you want", said Yoimiya.
You thought for a bit and decided that maybe you could go to have some fun as well to try to relax after your long week.
"Fine, see you here at 7pm so we can all go together."
"Yayyy!", they all cheered.
Present time
So this is how you got here, sat in a circle with everyone else from the party while they prepare a game of "7 minutes in heaven".
"Who wants to spin first?"
"How about you Aether?", responds Ayaka looking at the blond.
"Sure why not?"
Kaeya passes him the bottle and he spins it. Meanwhile, a lot of thoughts go through your head. "What if it lands on you?" "No impossible, the odds aren't that high that it will end up on you." "Will that mean he's gonna kiss someone other than you?" "Why are you even thinking that, it's not like he's your boyfriend! Also, the rules don't say that you have to kiss the other person-"
"[your name]?", Aether says looking at you, "It landed on you, but if you feel uncomfortable don't worry you don't have to do it", he then says with his beautiful smile.
How is he so cute?
But wait! It landed on you! You!
"No, no, don't worry it's totally okay! Uhm is it okay for you?", he nods and you both direct yourselves to the closet near the entrance.
You see your friends looking at you with big grins and giving you thumbs-ups in encouragement.
Aether closes the door and immediately checks if you're okay.
"Are you comfortable? If you need more space don't hesitate to tell me."
"I'm all good", you respond a bit nervous, "and you?"
"Good as well"
"Good.", there is a small silence, "so what do you wanna do for 7 minutes?"
"I don't really know. This is the first time I play this game actually", he says that last sentence laughing a bit. The blonde then notices a black coat on a clothes hanger and puts it on. You wonder what he's doing until you hear him speak.
"So this is how America was discovered in 1492 by Christophe Colomb", says Aether imitating your Geography and History teacher M.Zhongli. You laugh at his imitation and then try to find something to do an imitation as well. You take a lab coat and cough a bit before starting: "Today we will learn about microbiology and how it affects the nature around us and even ourselves.", you say imitating your biology teacher
"That is a great imitation of M.Albedo", he says laughing. While he's trying to find another piece of clothing to imitate someone else, he trips and falls on top of you, your lips touching when you tried to catch him.
You both accidentally kiss like that for a few seconds before you both realize what's happening and he detaches himself from your lips to start apologizing profusely. You take a moment to understand what just happened and realize that you both accidentally kissed.
"Wait! I just kissed him!", you think to yourself.
"I am so sorry! I don't even know what happened I just tripped and we kissed accidentally. Not that it's a problem for me since I like you and all- Wait! I'm sorry, I don't even why I said that! It's okay if you don't like me that way and you can just forget what I said-"
"What if I do like you as well?"
"You do?"
"Of course! You're generous, caring, patient, handsome and so many more things that make me love you.", you said blushing a bit.
He's touched by your words and feels something inside him that makes him ask you: "Is it okay if I kiss you again?"
You respond by pulling him again to your lips and you both kiss each other like you both always dreamed of.

" kazuha, i love you so much! "
" i love you too, my lady shogun! "
" aha haha hahaha! " running around in a dandelion field as they both hold hands and jump around with smiling faces.
" my lady shogun, let's share this beautifully strawberry sandwich made by yours truly! "
" of course, kazuha! " looking at each other's faces as if they are their sunshine.
" lady shogun.. do you know how much i lo— "
------
" shogun-sama, please wake up!! " says one of her servant, " you're late for your daily walk with the traveler! "
with an annoyed face, she—
*insert thundering noises*
" oh! what's going with the sky? " says paimon as she hides behind aether's back.
" the shogun must be having a tantrum again, haha! " tomo laughs, " i feel like it has something to do with me.. " kazuha thought as he shivers.
" kazuha, tomo, i think we should— " aether begins but is suddenly cut off by a loud voice.
" kazuha!!!! my darling!! "
turning to the source of the voice, they are met with an archon running towards them with a bright smiley face.
kazuha tries to run away but is suddenly pull back by the shoulder by a certain close friend of his. " tomo. please let me go. "
" no. "
smiling evilly, he keeps him in place until (Y/N) caught a hold of kazuha and hugs him tightly.
" kazuha! how are you? do you want to go on a date? maybe ask the kamisato clan how they got their whatever those drinks with the round squishy things are called! "
" i don't think i have the time for that, lady shogun.. " kazuha says but is quickly cut off by tomo, " yes! yes, he does have time! "
" great! let's go then, my beloved! "
------
arriving at the kamisato mansion, they were greeted by thoma
" lady shogun and kazuha, what a surprise we have here! " he exclaims while winking at kazuha.
" helllo! we're here to see the kamisato siblings. "
" oh, the kamisato siblings? lady ayaka is possibly free right now, but i'm not sure about lord ayato.. "
" do not worry, we'll just burst into his workroom! " she replies happily.
" what? lady shogu– "
" lady shogun, wait no– and.. they're gone " thoma sighs, " lord ayato is going to kill me.. "
at kamisato ayato's workroom, sat said person as he's working on his papers while occasionally drinking his `drink with the round squishy things`
it was quiet for a moment.. until his doors suddenly burst open. " mister ayato!!!!! "
looking up to the source of the voice, he saw the archon of his nation and the infamous samurai cupped in her arms.
" my lady shogun. " he smiles, " what business do you have with the kamisato clan to come directly to me? "
" lord ayato, please help me– "
" mister ayato~~ " she sang out his name,
chuckling, he replied " please drop the formality, lady shogun. "
" right, right.. so... " she eyes his drink next to him, " where did you get that drink with the round squishy things..? "
" ah, this drink? " he said as he waves the drink in front of the archon's eyes, " well.. you can get them from tomoki's stall but we have some stocks here too, you can have them if you want. "
" great! can you deliver some of them to the tenshukaku please? "
------
" kazuha.. kazuha... i got this bouquet for you.. " handing him the bouquet, kazuha looks at the flowers only to see purple and red flowers a mix combination of their colours that actually looks quite nice. " lady shogun, you didn't have– "
" no, no i insist. " smiling happily, she took his hand and start walking, " actually, today i planned a picnic for both of us. "
" oh, but i have some discussion with the watatsumi soldiers today though. "
" you do? " turning her head to him as he nods, " oh well then, we can have the picnic after your training. and i'm tagging along of course! "
arriving at the watatsumi island, most of the soldiers were surprised to see the archon of their nation trailing behind the samurai as she chases around with butterflies.
" general gorou, the wandering samurai and lady shogun have arrived. " one of the soldiers told gorou.
" oh, kazuha is here? " gorou questions, " wait. the raiden shogun is also here?! "
------
reaching sangonomiya shrine, (Y/N) goes to talk to kokomi while gorou and kazuha are chatting.
" kokomi, hi hi!! "
" (Y/N)! how are you? "
" my best friend, kokomi.. " (Y/N) hugs her, " you see, today kazuha and i were supposed to go on a picnic date but he said that he has some discussion with the watatsumi soldiers and now we're here! "
" but it is okay, i always have time for kazuha! "
as kokomi reciprocated the action, she chuckles " don't worry, while kazuha is busy why don't you go give our guardian deity a visit? "
hearing the similar title of a close friend, she perks up " orocchi! where is he? don't tell me he's still hanging around in enkanomiya.. i don't like going down there! "
" fortunately, he's currently out suntanning around watatsumi shores. i'm sure you can find him easily if you go to bourou village. "
slipping away from the divine priestess's arms, the shogun starts skipping towards bourou village, while the latter went to work on her duties.
" orocchi!! "
hearing the young shogun's voice, orobashi removes the newspaper from his face and sat up from the sunbed.
" orocchi, orocchi! i can't believe you actually came up here, it's been like 300 years! "
orocchi as (Y/N) calls him or orobashi, a dragon-like serpent god that is worshiped by the residents of the watatsumi island and their leaders, also a childhood friend of the raiden siblings.
in his dragon-like serpent form, he may look scary and terrifying but in his human form, he's a handsome young man with very attractive features. fair skin, long white and teal ombre hair tied in a loose ponytail, and cherry red eyes.
although, he looks like your everyday stoic businessman, orobashi is actually a kind and collective man that is very caring, even going as far as helping the raiden siblings when they are in need of help.
" (Y/N), don't run or you'll trip on the– "
and she tripped on the sand.
gathering herself back up, she goes to orobashi and starts to bash him with stories of how her love life is going and her huge crush on kazuha.
" so yesterday, kazuha and i went... "
------
" ...and that's how the plan to will go. " says gorou as kazuha nods along. " basically, we set up the trap and wait for him to fall for it. "
" that's pretty easy. by the way, have you seen lady shogun? " kazuha questions
" lady shogun..? i'm sure i saw her walking towards bourou village. "
" bourou village...? "
at the shore of bourou village, orobashi is listening to (Y/N) rambles about kazuha. " so kazuha and i drank this drink that ayato calls it as the `boba drink` "
suddenly, orobashi starts leaning down closer to her face. at the same time, kazuha round the corner and saw something that he probably shouldn't have because it made his eyes widen.
quickly, he turns back and walks away.
" you have this ignorant white thing in your hair. " plucking the white thing away from them, (Y/N) resumed on telling stories.
kazuha might think that he escaped without anyone witnessing him but orobashi with his sharp eyes and a sense of hearing immediately caught kazuha in his act.
well, maybe he's going to have a bit of fun with it.
" (Y/N). what do we say going to check on the soldiers and admire the scenery from above? "
" sure! "
------
upon arriving in front of sangonomiya shrine, there stood a chuckling kokomi and kazuha, a laughing gorou and paimon, an unimpressed aether, and a shrine maiden, tsuyuko is the first to notice them. " watatsumi omikami and lady shogun! "
what a strange sight to see. the watatsumi's guardian deity carrying the electro archon on his shoulders.
" hello everybody, what are you doing? "
" orobashi-sama. " kokomi says, " we were playing a practical joke on aether. "
" aether? the legendary traveler, how are y– "
" orocchi, i saw some sango pearls 200 miles away, we need to collect them! " (Y/N) suddenly pulls his hair while pointing in the direction.
" please don't pull my hair, " orobashi sighs, " i'm sorry that we have to cut this interaction short, we'll be going now. "
smiling mischievously at kazuha, he disappeared away with the electro archon.
of course, the whole group caught his act but it was intentional anyways and they knew exactly to who that mischievous smile is directed to.
kazuha knows, he knows that he shouldn't be feeling this way but his heart is telling him that he should be feeling it. he saw them gazing at each other lovingly at the shore of bourou village, shouldn't he feel happy for them?
but what about the affections that the archon has been showering him with? all those years, he did feel happy and mushy inside whenever she was around but he was too scared to admit it.
so was it all a joke, a continuous running joke that has been happening for years? he doesn't know, he doesn't want to know what the feeling is called.
------
it's been a few hours since kazuha and (Y/N) returned from watatsumi island. the second that the ship anchored, kazuha immediately dash out without letting (Y/N) say a word to him.
of course, the electro archon thought that his behavior is weird as if it hasn't been weird since he saw her and orobashi together.
but she decided to brush it aside for a bit.
no, she wouldn't. if anything involves kazuha, she would be there in a millisecond. but since she's too tired, she wants to take a nice, relaxing spa~ first.
after having that nice and relaxing bath, she sets on a mission to find kazuha. firstly, checking his and tomo's room in the tenshukaku, but he isn't there. then the training room, which he also isn't there.
where could he be?
oh! under the sakura tree at amakane island perhaps?
as she travels from the tenshukaku to amakane island while also stopping to buy some dango milk and petting the stray animals. reaching the said island, she sees the silhouette of the wandering samurai that she's been pining for.
" kazuha! "
said person flinches when his name rolled out of that sweet person's tongue. turning around, he sees that she's walking toward him in her pajamas.
wait. in her pajamas?
" l-lady shogun! you shouldn't be wandering around outside in your sleepwear! "
as she's in reach of the samurai, she pulls him in a tight embrace. " kazuha, what are you doing out here? and alone! it's dangerous at night, you could've gotten hurt for all you know! "
" my lady shogun.. i am a samurai... "
" but.. but still! i can't bear seeing you return with bruises on your beautiful face! " she embraces him tighter, " you know, i love you a lot.. "
those words, his heart clenches at them. but what about the watatsumi omikami?
" what about orocchi? " she questions,
" oh. i'm sorry, did i say it out loud? i didn't mean to. "
" unn.. but what do you mean what about orocchi? "
" u-um... "
what a sight. the samurai that is known to be calm and relaxed is now a stuttering mess in front of the electro archon.
" kazuha, " tilting her head to look at him, " are you perhaps.. "
don't say the word, don't say it..
" jealous? "
...
from the silence and the deep red hue forming all over his face just confirm her question.
kazuha has his eyes shut tight but when he hears only silence from the archon, he opens them meekly.
" ah! " surprised to see his archon sobbing quietly and beautifully.
" i didn't know you felt that way, kazuhaa!! you could've told me.. "
" i-i'm sorry, i told you and the watatsumi– "
" noo! " (Y/N) cried, " orocchi and me are just best friends! he's like my brother figure and most importantly, i really love you kazuha! "
...
" i love you too, (Y/N). "
as (Y/N)'s eyes start to tear up and widen at his words, fireworks suddenly shoot up into the starry night sky making both of them flinch.
looking around, they saw yoimiya working with the fireworks, yae and ei chuckling, aether and tomo giving them a thumbs up plus, paimon and beidou crying happily.
laughing quietly, (Y/N) turns to kazuha " this feels like one of the confession plan i made for you.. " taking his hands in hers " except this time, you accepted it. "

Mischievous Birthday
[church]
Venti:Oh Aether~
Aether:I don��t like how you said my name.
Venti:What’s wrong? It’s my birthday. I’m a special little birthday boy who wants a special little gift.
Aether:You always want wine. We have a good thing going.
Venti:Yes, but I started thinking, wine is no good without entertainment.
Aether:I want to remind you we’re currently in a place of worship.
Venti:Uh huh, for me!
Aether:….How did I forget that?
The door opens and Amber, Keqing, Yanfei, Kokomi, and Ayaka all walk in and sit on a front row bench. Nervousness hit Aether immediately. Venti snickers as he drags Aether to stand in the front. Things only got worse as Venti pulled out flash cards.
Venti:First question-
Aether:Wait! Is this some twisted game show or something!? You’ve explained nothing!
Amber:Just roll with it, haha.
Venti:First question! What’s the most physically appealing thing to you about all of your partners?
Aether:*blushing* I’m the entertainment!? Can I get a lifeline!?
Keqing:Not how it works!
Aether:Uhh ummm. Okay… *takes a breath*
Yanfei:I feel slightly bad.
Kokomi:No this is great.
Ayaka:Agreed.
Aether:Physically appealing. Well I can’t be too embarrassed about yours Amber. You caught me staring at your butt like two weeks into knowing you.
Amber:And it was hilarious.
Aether:As far as everyone else, Yanfei, we’re crop top buddies. The bond was instant.
Yanfei:Heck yeah!
Aether:Keqing’s eyes are very beautiful.
Keqing:Awww, now say you’re actual answer.
Aether:*red* I mean your leggings look good on you.
Keqing:There it is!
Aether:I want to die… these were supposed to be private thoughts.
Venti:You got two more! Tough it out.
Ayaka:*smiling*
Aether:To be honest, your face is just… so adorable.
Ayaka:What!? *red*
Aether:Yeah. You’re beauty mark, pale skin but intense eyes. Soft cheeks. It’s just cute.
Keqing:I take offense!
Aether:The question was most appealing, not first impressions. If that was the case then I’d say face for all of you. Eyes were legit the first thing I noticed about you. It just so happens I like your legs more.
Keqing:*red*….You live today.
Aether:Kokomi, I’m torn. I want to play with her hair every time I see her. But also….*red* It’s hard not admiring your figure. Your thigh-highs are longer than Amber’s.
Kokomi:*smiles* And just like her, I caught you looking as well. I just never said anything about it.
Aether:Am I free now?
Venti:Question two!!! What thing does each partner do that is your absolutely favorite?
Girls:CHANGE THE QUESTION!
Venti:The birthday boy says no! Aether, I highly recommend you don’t let this question kill you. It would be funny though.
Aether:You all have such little faith. Do you even know my answers?
Kokomi:No matter what they are, it’s embarrassing!
Yanfei:Have sympathy! I thought this was going to far!
Amber:There’s no shame left between us so fire away. Plus it’s no fun if you’re lying.
Venti:I like your spirit!
Aether:Guys, it’s literally not what you think. For Amber, it’s hugs. Since all of you are either busy in your office or have an image to keep up, what always sticks out to me is that the moment I see Amber, she’ll run up and hug me.
Amber:Score one for the land of freedom and being average citizen!
Keqing:It’s not a contest ya know.
Aether:Don’t pout. It’s fine that you’re busy. When you know I’m around, you either stay late so I can conveniently walk you home and have a late dinner with no one else around. That, or there’s a suspicious space in your schedule that I always manage to get.
Keqing:*red*…..
Venti:No defense?
Keqing:I’m no liar. He called it like he saw it. Guess I’m not as sneaky as Ningguang is. I wonder who else noticed?
Yanfei:Ningguang, Ganyu, probably Yelan, me, your major staff must be suspicious-
Keqing:*covers face*
Aether:Fishing has become a big thing between Yanfei and I. Whoever catches the least has to cook them. Still we end up cooking together anyways most times. She always manages to get incredibly long ramblings out of me before I realize it, hours pass. I really like it. *smiles* you’re really good listener.
Yanfei:I am a legal consultant. If I can’t listen to people’s problems and find a way to put them at ease, then I wouldn’t be the best.
Aether:Kokomi and I have nap dates.
Kokomi:Don’t confess to that!
Aether:But it’s literally the best! I’m tired from adventures, you’re tired from your job. Finding a place to run off and go to sleep is comforting. You always get so cuddly.
Kokomi:*flustered*…This stays in the church!
Venti:Why of course! Now then, what about Ms. Kamisato?
Aether:Ayaka will take any new food I cook her and try cooking it herself for the next time I visit. Then there’s the fact she tries “teaching” me tea ceremony etiquette. It’s a great excuse to bring my teapot. I guess you and Keqing have something in common. You do a lot of things to create alone time. It makes me feel special.
Ayaka:You’re the one teaching me so much about the rest of the world. How could I not want to see you? You broaden my horizons in an otherwise practiced life. I’m thankful.
Aether:*smiles*
Venti:Awww, I think she loves you.
Ayaka:H..Hey! Don’t single me out!
Venti:I’m just teasing. Now, third and final question! Aether, what-
The church doors fly open. Barbara stands in the doorway, breathless, and visibly annoyed for once.
Barbara:Venti! Jean wasn’t in danger at all, or at Windrise!
Aether:You sent her on a wild goose chase!?
Venti:Well…duh. This is a church! No one would just allow this to happen.
Barbara briskly approaches the bard. Not wanting to stay, a sudden gust of wind blows in everyone’s face, sending the flash cards flying and giving Venti the perfect opportunity to run by Barbara, but not before twirling the girl first.
Venti:Thanks for the wonderful gift everyone! I’ll be sure to make a song about it!
Barbara:Venti!
Yanfei:Did we…become accomplices?
Amber:It’s fine. Let’s chalk it up to we were in the wrong place at the wrong time, without knowing.
Yanfei:That’s an unknowing accomplice!
Amber:Trust me, it’s fine.
Kokomi:There’s still a question left.
Keqing:Well, it’s not like we need him as long as-
Ayaka turns Keqing’s head to show her the cards that should’ve been on floor, are gone; as well as Aether. Everyone looked around but sure enough, he bolted the moment chaos happened.
Keqing:Oh I am not making time in my schedule next time he visits!
xxxxxx
Sometimes, the best place to hide is in plain sight. Aether and Venti sat in the hands of the statue in front of the church, watching everyone go their separate ways. The only one who bothered to look up was Amber, but all she did was give her salute before going on her way. Figures the glider knew to look towards the sky. Venti waved with the flash card in hand, and a bottle in the other.
Venti:So my fellow escape artist, what made you fall in love with such wonderful and kind people?
Aether:Sorry Venti, some songs can’t be played for just anyone. *smiles*
Venti:And that my dear friend, I couldn’t agree more with. Bonus question, ever wanted to sleep with a wind god?
Aether:Haha! Tempting, but sorry. I’m spoken for.
Venti:Ehe, worth a shot.
He let go of the card, letting it soar to the heavens.

Ayaka: Err. . . .amber, may I talk to you for a moment?
Amber: Sure! Whatcha need?
Ayaka: Well, it's just that after I came here, I managed to see how close you and the traveler are, and how well your relationship works. You two confide everything to each other and can talk about any topic like it is no big deal.
Amber: *sheepishly* Do we now? I guess we just got used to each other after a while. Still, what do you need?
Ayaka: *fidgeting* well. . . .i. . . .need some *pink* r-relationship advice.
Amber: sure. Just ask away what you want to know.
Ayaka: How do you make it easier to talk to your partner? Ever since me and Thoma started dating, just talking about anything makes me really nervous.
Amber: Oh, that's normal. I was the same back then with aether *sheepishly* I ended up missing most of my shots because of how nervous I got whenever I went on commissions with him.
Ayaka: Then, how did you get so comfortable around him? Every time I stand near Thoma I feel like my heart is going to explode.
Amber: That's normal too. And i guess the best solution for that is time, me and aether have been together for a year now, so we're just used to each other at this point, But if you need something more immediate, you could try telling jokes.
Ayaka: Jokes?
Amber: yeah, something to make both of you laugh, it usually helps out a lot to clear the tension when you can't speak up normally.
Ayaka: but. . . .i-i don't really know how to make good jokes.
Amber: Oh that part is easy, just make a short story for the setup and finish with an unexpected punchline.
Ayaka: d-do i really need to do that!?
Amber: Of course, no joke is complete without a punchline.
Ayaka: but. . . .won't that make him mad?
Amber: I doubt it, normal people usually don't get angry with jokes.
Ayaka: then. . . .i'll try my best.
Amber: *thumbs up* I'll be rooting for you.
*Later on*
Thoma: *serves her tea* Here it is, my lady.
Ayaka: Thank you thoma. *Sips her tea.* . . . .
Thoma: *sits down as well* . . . .
Ayaka: . . . . .
Thoma: . . . . .
Ayaka: *pink* . . . . .
Thoma: *pink* . . . . .
Ayaka: Uuugh, this is so awkward. No, I got this, just gotta remember what Amber told me, everything is gonna be okay. . . .i still don't like this though. Thoma.
Thoma: Y-yes, my lady.
Ayaka: D-did you know that i-i really like the story of the loud duck?
Thoma: R-really? Why?
Ayaka: Because. . . . . .BECAUSE IT ALWAYS MAKES ME QUACK UP!!!
The line ended with her sending her fist full strength forward and colliding with Thoma's face, sending him flying back through the paper wall.
Ayaka: O-oh my god. *Rushes to him* i-i'm sorry! I was too nervous and put too much strength in it!
Thoma: *rubbing his cheek* Oww. . . .your strength never ceases to amaze me, my lady. Though, could I know what have i done to deserve that?
Ayaka: Was. . . .was that a bad joke? Did I do something wrong?
Thoma: What are you talking about my lady?
Ayaka: It's just. . . . *Pink* A friend told me that a good story set up followed by a strong punchline can make for great jokes. Did i do it wrong?
Thoma: Pfff. . . .hahahahaha.
Ayaka: *extremely confused* It. . . .it worked?
Thoma: Hahahaha! *Wipes a tear away* My lady, what do you think a punchline is?
Ayaka: Isn't it a line followed by a punch? Wait! Should I have punched first!?
Thoma: *chuckles* My lady, a punchline for a joke is a line that twists the story in an unexpected way and packs a figurative punch to finish off a joke, you don't really punch people during a punchline.
Ayaka: Oh. . . . . *red* I'm so sorry Thoma! I had no idea that-!
Thoma: It's okay, I get it. I got to laugh by the end so it still worked in a weird way.
Ayaka: Still. . . .
Thoma: But why the sudden interest in learning to make jokes?
Ayaka: I just. . . . *Fidgeting* I-i heard making jokes can help ease the tension and make it easier for two people to talk.
Thoma: Oh. . . .*pink* so that's why. I suppose that means I'm not the only one who becomes a mess trying to just act normally.
Ayaka: *Shakes head.* It's just. . . .whenever you're around i get anxious and self conscious about everything i do, i-i don't want to mess this up.
Thoma: Yeah I know the feeling. To be completely honest, I never really thought I had a chance with you my lady, so every day I feel like I'm stepping on eggshells, one misstep and it's all over.
Ayaka: That would never happen! My feelings aren't so shallow that one mistake would end it all.
Thoma: *smiles* Took the words right out of my mouth, my lady.
Ayaka: . . . .can you stop that?
Thoma: what?
Ayaka: *pink, looks away* What did you promise me you would do when it's just the two of us?
Thoma: R-right. I'm sorry my la- i mean, Ayaka.
Ayaka: *smiles*
Thoma: *pink* D-does hearing me say that makes you that happy?
Ayaka: Yes. I love the sound of your voice so hearing my name is quite pleasant.
Thoma: *red* . . . . .
Ayaka: *blush* I-i mean-! The sound of your voice is nice! Not you-! I-i mean-!
Thoma: It's okay. I-i get it.
Ayaka: *red, with steam coming from the top of her head* I-i'm sorry, for becoming such an embarrassing mess.
Thoma: It's fine. I-it's not like I'm doing any better.
Ayaka: But-
Thoma: Still. *Pink* I wanna try and be a better boyfriend, as best as i can.
Ayaka: *redder, feeling his hand on top of hers* I. . . .i will do my very best too.
???: Aww, Aren't you two the cutest?
Thoma/Ayaka: *flinch, looking at Yae and Ayato who stood at the doorway* Y-young master/My brother!?
Ayato: We were hoping to use the room to discuss matters, if you two lovebirds don't mind.
Both of them got red from head to toe and jumped several feet away from each other.
Thoma: Y-young master, w-we were just-!
Ayaka: How long have you been there!?
Ayato: Since Thoma came crashing through the wall. You seriously need to work on your jokes my sister.
Ayaka: *covering her bright red face* P-please excuse me! *Runs off*
Thoma: Aya-! I mean, my lady, wait! Please excuse me young master. *Goes after her*
Yae: Fufufu, innocent love is quite adorable, don't you think.
Ayato: It is for sure. Though I don't know if Thoma will survive if she keeps telling such jokes.
Yae: Well, I think it's quite charming.
Ayato: Do you now?
Yae: Yes.
Ayato: . . . . . .Did you know that once, two blind men-
Yae: *smiling* You try and finish that sentence and I'll smite you off of the face of this planet.
Ayato: *shrug* Well, i tried.

a/n : Eh idk what to name this chapter + If you want a ship added just tell me !!
Chapter : 2
Tumblr media
Maybe a year ago you still would've hated the thought of switching schools again; after all it seemed so unfair. But now you felt relieved, relieved not having to deal with all those people staring, waiting to hear the worst.
The day passed quickly, and soon enough it was time to leave. You waved goodbye to all your classmates, promising yourself you'd see them tomorrow. They would probably all try to give you hugs, tell you how lucky you were, and ask you what you were going to do next. You wouldn't lie, you did wish you could tell them, but that would only lead to more questions and then more yelling and then even more anger. So instead you just smiled and said goodbye, hoping that they understood.
As you walked home, you started planning what you were going to do that night. Maybe you'd make dinner tonight? Or order pizza or something. That always worked when you were upset. It helped.
Before long you reached your apartment building. You grabbed your bag and unlocked the door, walking inside. There wasn't anybody in the hall, which was fine with you. There were fewer people out today, anyway.
After taking off your shoes, you headed into the kitchen and began preparing dinner. The smell of tomato sauce filled the air, and you hummed contentedly.
You glanced at your phone and frowned. 7:30pm. Well, at least that was an acceptable time for eating dinner.
About twenty minutes later, you put the finished dishes into the dishwasher and sat down at the small dining table with a book. You'd finished the last chapter about four chapters ago, but you couldn't help finding yourself rereading it, reliving old memories.
You' d been reading the same sentence for over ten minutes when the doorbell rang, startling you. Your first thought was that someone had changed their mind. It wouldn't be the first time.
"Coming!" you called out, getting up and making your way towards the door. Who would bother you at seven PM?
You swung open the door to reveal a slightly dishevelled Aether. You noticed, however, that he was holding a small box in front of him.
"Hey," he greeted.
Your heart jumped when he spoke to you like that, but that didn't surprise you in the least. Even though he tried, he couldn't quite keep his emotions off his face.
You opened the door wider, inviting him in.
"Thank you."
The two of you walked into the living room and set the box down on the coffee table. He took a seat on the couch.
"What is this?" you asked suspiciously, sitting opposite to him.
"Open it, Y/N," he urged gently.
Reluctantly, you picked up the lid. Inside were several items; a piece of paper, a pen, a key, a wallet, and… a photograph?
It was your mother. She was smiling widely, wearing a red dress, her arms wrapped around you and another man. You recognised him immediately; he was your father, standing next to a younger, happier, more beautiful woman in a wedding dress. The photo was taken years ago, probably around your third birthday.
"[Name]?" he questioned.
"Yeah," you mumbled, eyes still glued to the picture.
"Do you know her?"
You blinked and finally tore your gaze away from the photo, focusing on Aether. He was looking at you intently, his eyebrows knitted together in concern.
For a second, a small smile played across your lips. How nice it would feel to finally tell him.
Then you remembered you had no idea whether he really cared about you, or if he was simply using you.
"No," you replied softly, looking down at the photo again.
"Are you sure? Because-"
"Don't." You cut him off harshly. "She's dead. And I don't want to talk about it."
The smile vanished from your face as quickly as it had come, and you stood up and walked out of the room.
"[Name]?" Aether called after you, but you ignored him.
There was nothing else you could do now but sit by the fire and cry until your father returned.
You woke with a start when your phone alarm rang in your ear. Slowly you peeled yourself out of bed. The clock read 5:00am.
You shuffled out of bed, grabbed a pair of pyjamas from your suitcase, and dragged your feet back towards the bathroom. You showered, brushed your teeth, and put the rest of your clothes into your duffel bag. When you were done dressing you left your bedroom and headed down to the kitchen. There was a note laying on the counter. On it was written:
[Name],
I'm sorry to wake you early (or late) but I'm leaving now for work, and it'll be around 4:30am by the time I come home, so I'll try and get back before 6:00pm, but I don't think I can guarantee it. I've already arranged for my colleagues to look after you. Just please eat something and drink some water.
See you tonight.
Dad
You sighed to yourself and placed your hands in your pockets. He was acting completely weird, and it didn't take much for you to figure out why. This meant something big was about to happen.
You grabbed a bottle of water and a granola bar from the pantry and sat down at the table. You opened the granola bar. While chewing, you watched as the rain outside poured relentlessly against the glass windows. It reminded you of the stormy nights you used to spend alone. Sometimes you wished you lived with your father, then maybe you wouldn't have to deal with all this crap.
With a sigh, you threw the wrapper into the trash and got up to throw away the empty bottle. As you turned around, you saw a flash of movement out of the corner of your eye. You froze. Was it your imagination? Were you imagining things?
But then you saw it again. Another flash. And then another. And another. Soon there were dozens upon dozens of flashes, causing a blinding light to fill the apartment, flooding your vision.
Then everything faded to black.
