yknow genshin deciding against making more than like 2 male characters a year is kinda baffling to me. hsr just dropped sunday and I think he’s the most hyped character I’ve ever seen from a hoyo game ever??? I know we’re not getting the banner numbers for a while but I know people were whaling for him. He’s a pathetic little meow meow for the girlies gays and theys, and he’s incredibly good for the upcoming meta for the straight dudes. Genshin has Neuvillette but Neuvillette never reached this level I think????

Aether/Lumine: *Travelling through Mondstadt with Xiangling*

Xiangling: So, where's this dragon I've heard about?

Aether/Lumine: Oh, Dvalin? I'm not sure, but I think we can find him. Why?

Xiangling: I want to know how he tastes.

Aether/Lumine: *Mortified*

*Elsewhere in Mondstadt*

Venti: *Heard the whole conversation cause it carried on the wind or something idk and he wants to mess with Dvalin* Hey Dvalin, we should go meet a new friend!

so i was talking with my friend abt like-- genshin lore and it got to the subject of forbidden knowledge and stuff

and she used this analogy of it being a computer virus or a corrupted file that cant be processed properly

which then made me think "ahaha yes SAGAU IDEA--"

so what if... the forbidden knowledge was the fact that the world is a game/simulation? and since the world of genshin is a computer program, it wasnt built to handle the realization of the nature of its existence and like-- processed it as eleazar, and "forbidden knowledge" and its other effects on the world

eleazar is the system like-- turning it into the safest thing the program can handle and leaving it to the gods (rukk and desh) to try and fully put a stop to it like anti-virus-- the program is only running the world, not the beings and people in it, so itd make sense for them to stop it since when the world is ending and you can do something about it, youd probably do something about it--

since rukk and desh were gods and therefore much "closer" to the games code/programming (closer in the sense that they were much more directly tied/connected to it-- esp rukkha because of irminsul), they were able to handle the realization in a sense-- like... they knew that they werent "real" in some sense and knew that this knowledge is slowly killing them and their deaths to the knowledge that "they werent real" is inevitable and that-- in a way, the eleazar is one of the safest ways for people to handle the knowledge-- that even the world is protecting them from the ruin of it

i imagine the way the two gods processed the information was like-- thru the "corruptive qualities of forbidden knowledge" and in fragmented parts. its why i said that they only knew that they werent "real" and not that they knew that theyre a video game world-- kind of in the same vein of practically every harbinger going "the sky is fake let me tell you about it" (proceeds to not tell you about it) (dottore i love you but im still mad about it)

but if the "forbidden knowledge" is knowledge about how youre not real because youre a video game and youre not supposed to be self aware of it, how then can the harbingers handle that information without going mad or constantly dying of eleazar? i mean-- in the both the manga and in the game its pretty explicitly said that like, dottore fully stopped colleis eleazar and practically cured her of it.

so... you know how they manage to keep altered information in the form of stories in scaramouches archon quest? i think a similar case happened here-- an allegorical story about people living in a fake reality, be it a dream or a story or something, was made to preserve this information. and since it wasnt the pure unadulterated truth about the nature of this worlds existence anymore, the program could handle it and keep anyone from reading it suffering the negative effects of forbidden knowledge

pierro probably did it tbh-- in the archon quest, it was said that the events of khaenriah and the events leading to the deaths of king deshret and rukkhadevata are similar, if not exactly the same.

so how can we then tie this into SAGAU? are you still with me? did you completely forget that this is about me bullshitting the games lore so much to fit this really specific genre of genshin fandom stuff so you can make content about it? have you forgotten i write SAGAU fics? ...honestly i cant blame you for that last one if you did, i havent been writing SAGAU fic in a WHILE LMAO

ANYWAYS--

the concept of "forbidden knowledge" being used in SAGAU is really interesting which is why im writing abt it in the first place lmao-- and the concept is uber fun so this is just me helping you fit this into your own fics and fanworks

since the "forbidden knowledge" is literally just like "youre a computer program and youre not supposed to know that", y/n would DEFINITELY be able to handle it without the adverse effects. and i know that y/n is basically the equivalent of a mary sue at this point and it physically hurted me when i started writing y/n fics but-- if you think abt it, it makes sense

i am trying so hard rn to like-- not turn this into a discussion about mary sues-- just watch OSPs video on the subject and youre golden lmao

it makes sense for y/n to be able to handle it because number one: y/n is literally us. y/n is not lines of code in a program. y/n is never supposed to end up inside a program or software, and is DEFINITELY SUPER AWARE OF THE FACT THAT GENSHIN IS NOT REAL.

y/n is a human, or at least was a human before they got isekaied or whatever plot thing you decide to do to put y/n in the genshi world. y/n is human, not programming and can definitely handle the thought of "youre not real, youre a game". (lmao it could also really make for some good introspection and/or angst moments where they could philosophize about themselves now that theyre in the game, and the nature of pataphysics and all that fun stuff lmao)

i feel like-- you could also use this as like, a sort of leverage thing? to prove that you are who you say you are and, if this is impostor au, you could use it to your advantage as well in more aggressive ways-- not just as a "prove that youre the one above us all" situation but as a sort of self defence thing-- like when scara and dottore were both talking about the sky being fake thing

obviously youd be immune to eleazar and the madness of the forbidden knowledge caps and the other adverse effects-- BUT you could also inflict those things to the people and the world around you. while other characters like the fatui and the gods could say "youre fake, the world isnt real", they wont inflict the bad stuff since its like they heard the info from a friend of a friend of a friend-- the knowledge has been filtered and purified and fragmented so much that it wont do anything-- its not the full unadulterated truth

but when y/n says it, thats when it inflicts the adverse effects. its the difference between knowing something happened because you were there when it happened and witnessed it, and knowing something happened because you heard it happen from a friend who found out thru the internet. y/n fully knows the truth and intricacies of that statement on so many different levels than the characters can comprehend which is why they can do that.

i feel like it could depend with the volume and amount of people that heard-- like, if you scream it and a whole crowd hears you, the ones closest to you suffer the worst cases of eleazar ever recorded or EVEN DIE, and the severity just decreases the further it gets away from you. itd also be an instant withering zone or become something like the mud from the chasm

i also wanna say that you can "control" the spread in a way but like-- i dont see a way of making that happen tbh. if youre reading this and are getting inspo, go wild babes-- i believe in you, but i personally dont believe that y/n can control it. using the "computer virus" analogy, youd probably have to go into the essence of Teyvat itself to "delete that information" similarly to irminsul but different in the sense of like-- irminsul only put it in the recycle bin but youre going in the recycle bin, selecting all instances and deleting it. maybe you can bullshit it via leylines and abyss mage drops since they carry around leyline branches but i personally think that you just spew out forbidden knowledge, and have to go to irminsul itself to delete it

but yeah! thats my thoughs on Forbidden Knowledge in SAGAU and how it could fit into the world of the AU! making this actually like-- inspired me a bit to write again lmao-- theres just like, so many cool ass concepts in genshin that i dont see in this AU (probably because i havent been there in a while ;vjklldxfg) and i really hope you guys get inspired too :))

No Matter the Impracticality - Al Haitham

Author's Notes: I wrote this before the Sumeru Archon quest was even finished being released. It's just been sitting in my document gathering dust. Additionally, this fic was a last minute 'let's post this one' kind of decision I didn't actually listen to a song while I wrote this fic either. It just kind of happened. Nonetheless, writing Al Haitham is pretty enjoyable and I do hope you enjoy this fic! Reader is, as per usual, gender-neutral.

Type: Fluff/romance heavily implied/gender-neutral reader

Word Count: 467

“When people say adults in Sumeru don’t dream…. Do they mean they don’t have night time fantasies that only occur in their sleep or do they mean that they don’t hold hopeful aspirations for the future?”

Al Haitham looked up from his book to find you gazing back at him with a curious stare. Though your question was odd he did understand the meaning behind it, “Both, I suppose. We don’t dream our evenings away and we don’t waste our lives frantically chasing hopeless fantasies.”

He watched a small frown appear on your face, betraying your nature as one of the few dreamers within Sumeru, “That’s sad.”

He snorted, earning himself a look from that merely had him turning back to his book just before he threw an idle, if sarcastic, reply back your way, “It’s sad that people don’t let themselves get led astray by impractical and wholly unattainable dreams?”

He didn’t have to look at you to know you were frowning. Your tone said everything, “No. It’s sad that people chain themselves to only the things they know they can do. I understand taking the safe route when looking at something like job options, but for your entire life? That’s just restricting yourself.”

Despite himself, Al Haitham found himself acknowledging your argument. For a dreamer you could be quite logical.

He looked up from his book once more, finding his eyes being drawn to where you sat once more as you continued, fixing him with an unshakable look, “Haven’t you ever tried to reach for something? Some skill or goal you weren’t positive you could gain?”

“No.” His answer was flat and lacked all hesitation, but it didn’t tell the full story and he knew it.

He silently watched as you stared at him, startled by his speedy reply and he felt a smug smile curl across his face as he looked back down at his book.

It was true, he hadn't ever reached for anything that he wasn’t positive he could get. But just from spending time with you like this, he knew that wouldn’t last.

Al Haitham was no fool. He knew that when he looked at you he was looking at that potentially unattainable reward that he would strive for. No matter the impracticality or impossibility.

He could still feel your eyes on him when he turned his attention back to his book. You were no doubt thinking about his earlier, unhesitating reply to your question. He didn’t even bother hiding the amused smile on his face as he continued to peruse his book, not truly reading the contents as he pondered the fascination that was you.

With the way you filled his thoughts, perhaps he should be counted with the dreamers after all. But what you didn’t know wouldn’t hurt you.
