Nothing makes me smile more than knowing Sigewinne prolly referred to Wrios as 'little one' SO frequently before he got to take over Meropide

Geo (confirmed)/Catalyst (claymore actually)

[brainrotexe]

Wriothesley's very stressful and very embarrassing first date prep:

(He's wearing a formal suit to impress Neuvillette.)

It isn’t like Wriothesley to ask, but, “How do I look?”

Clorinde looks over her shoulder as he approaches, her eyebrows furrowing slightly, “What’s with the suit?”

“I always wear a suit.”

“Yeah, but–”

“Does it look good?” he prompts, holding his arms out to his sides, “Come on, Clorinde. I know it’s hard to scrape your jaw off the floor when you see me, but–"

“Pfft. You wish.” she scoffs, folding her arms, “You look fine, I guess. Where are you going? On a date?”

He can’t really think of a compelling comeback to that. For some reason… His heart’s in his throat.

“Wait.” she turns around, giving him her full attention, “You’re actually going on a date?”

He sighs, “Don’t get all excited about it.”

“Me? Excited about your love life? It’s just… normally you don’t do dates.”

“I dabble.”

“Did someone say Wriothesley’s going on a date?” Sigewinne asks, approaching from behind Clorinde’s legs.

A groan rips from Wriothesley’s throat. He doesn’t need a scene to start. “Look, Clorinde. Forget all of this, okay?”

“Sigewinne, how do you think he looks? Date ready?”

Sigewinne studies him, finger to her chin, “According to what I’ve learned about humans…. I think you’re sure to wow any human you come across!” she says, giving him two thumbs up.

“Yeah, that’s not exactly helpful.” Wriothesley says, squinting an eye as he adjusts his rings, “I’m not going out with a human.”

Both of their brows furrow.

“Then… What are you going on a date with?” Clorinde asks. “Don’t tell me. You’ve gotten desperate enough to take a Clockwork mek on a date?”

“Why is that your first guess?” Wriothesley asks flatly.

“Is it a melusine?” Sigewinne asks.

His face scrunches up, “What? No. Ladies, there are plenty of other creatures in Teyvat that aren’t human.”

“A creature.” Clorinde repeats, “You’re… dating a creature?”

Wriothesley runs two hands down his face, rubbing away his rapidly increasing stress, “No! He’s– I mean–”

“He’s?” Clorinde smirks, “I always figured.”

“No. You didn’t.” Wriothesley says, rolling his eyes.

“Hey. Welcome to the club.”

He’s blushing. This wasn’t worth it.

Just as he thinks about walking away without another word, he looks down. Sigewinne’s eyes are wide open.

She's connected the dots.

Some of my genshin ships that aren't reciprocated

Most of the time when i see ships its reciprocated romantic relationships and i just feel like people dont really talk about other dynamics (one-sided, exes, etc)

not including queer-platonic ships because most of my ships are

1. Wriolette (one-sided)

I might not be remembering my lore right, but Wrio was a teenager when he went on trial, which is also when he met Neuvi. I think he was like Wrio's gay awakening or whatever.

2. Neuvichi & Clorchi & Chibedo (one-sided)

Childe is just that one tweet that was like "im pansexual which means im attracted to anyone who can beat me in physical combat" I doubt most of them last longer than a few days but still.

3. Wriorinde (exes)

They give exes-to-besties vibes. I hc both of them to be aspec (Clorinde arospec and Wriothesley Ace) and i feel like they would joke and say like "yeah, they're the reason im aro" or smthg

4. Kazugorou (exes)

Idk i think they'd have gotten together during the war cause of like "we could die any second, i wouldnt mind dying along side you" but realized afterwards that they just didnt work together, theyre still friends tho.

5. Dottolisa (exes)

Honestly i was writing a collei fic and thought it'd be funny if while Dottore was doing his thing he would talk about his ex-girlfriend. And then Collei finally escaped and went to mond only to meet said ex-girlfriend.

[diot05]

I headcanon Sigewinne will be a healer tailored specifically to deal with the HP loss of Neuvillette and Wriothesley bc those two are so clueless they somehow take damage on their own mid-battle

Genshin impact hcs for every nation pt.5

Fontaine edition!

Note: Fontaine is sadly ending! So, as a parting gift, especially since Natlan is right around the corner, here's the Fontaine version of my headcanons!

Another add on. So sorry that I'm posting this the day before Natlan!! I'm kinda taking a break from genshin and focusing a bit more on my personal life. I hope you enjoy!

Charlotte: Before when Charlotte was a journalist, she aspired to be a baker in her much younger youth, but as she got older, she realized the slight difficulties, and her love for baking was quickly swept away by her curiosity in journaling.

Chevreuse: Chevreuse secretly looks up to Clorinde a lot, especially during her early days of being a part of the security. But of course, she'll deny any accusations of her admiring the duelist.

Chiori: Despite Chiori secretly having a soft spot and able to go easy on customers who are harmed. Kids are a different story... the designer has always noticed a twinge of fear in children's faces. She's been lectured to smile more when complaining about her problem.

Clorinde: When Clorinde was growing up, she secretly really liked scrapbooking and writing about her day. She would spend countless hours in different shops picking out pretty stamps or patterned paper before designing the pages, feeling the satisfaction as she could finally write and dwindle on what stickers to choose. Those days are long gone, but she still keeps all her journals with them

Emilie: Surprisingly, Emilie wasn't born with the hair fading into pink! It was due to a rebellious faze with her parents, but she inevitably got attached to the pink hair, that and it was hard for her to it get out.

Freminet: Found it hard gathering hobbies other than diving. Music making, journaling, archery. It was all so tiring to him! But one thing he did found interesting was baking! Specifically baking bread. Though the only people who know are Lyney and Lynette with their peeping eyes.

Furina: Secretly really likes big flamboyant makeup, almost like drag or even juggalo, but got a bit anxious about wearing it, especially since she was a celebrity to her people, but now, as she has a simpler life as an actress. She's begun to lean more into that crazy style!

Lynette: As Lynette got older and her shows with her brother got bigger, as well as their style in fighting and tricks, one of the main problems they found was props. Of course, they were all over the globe! But as a secret child of The House of Hearth, props weren't the main problem... thankfully! Lynette soon learned how to draw and created her and Lyney's customized magic cards!

Lyney: When Lyney was younger and felt a bit more rebellious or just bored in The House of Hearth, he would buy any fake temporary tattoos that looked neat to him. He would always show Freminet and say that he could create new ones whenever they faded. The blond always believed him while his dearest sister just shook her head.

Navia: One of the main reasons Navia spends her long hours in the bathroom isn't for her hair or makeup, but for her concerts! She loves to sing and bathe in comforting bubbles, either reminiscing on memories or just having a laugh to herself.

Neuvillette: As Neuvillette became the Ludex, he found himself bored and envying some of the Fountaine folks who talked about their new hobbies or interests. Inevitably, Neuvillette found himself researching and taught himself how to create jewelry. Before just as a gift for Furina and her flamboyant self, now turning into a personal comfort and charm for different accessories.

Sigewinne: When Wriothesley was growing up in the fortress, Sigewinne couldn't help but notice his scratched up clothes, especially with how big he was growing! As a result, Sigewinne learned how to sew and made him some new clothes, as well as just learning in general with clothing for herself or for younger kids.

Wriothesley: When Wrio was younger and an orphan, he had no clue how to write, let alone read. So when he was brought into his new family, he was ecstatic to learn from his siblings and read any sort of fairytail. But after his murder and trial, he found it hard to get back into writing or reading due to his memories of his family, but Sigewinne taught him how to learn and love again every slow step of the way.

Hi! Saw you talking about Wriowinne/Sigewrio in a previous post, and I would love to hear your headcanons or thoughts on them, if you have any! I have also gone through the same experience of labelling them as father and daughter at first but the archon quest changed my mind since it made them look more like partners in crime to me hahaha

Hi there! I see the archon quest has made several people rethink their vision of Sigewinne, honestly I'm really happy with what Mihoyo has done with her. It's nicely obvious that she's as mature as Wriothesley is, even Paimon says she feels like an older sister - she may look like a kid, but nobody treats her like one because she clearly isn't one.

As for wriowinne, as you said, they really feel like partners in crime! I wound up shipping them because they're clearly close, and because I am not immune to this kind of dynamic - scary-looking guy who's actually pretty sweet, and innocent-looking girl who's actually pretty off-putting. Sigewinne seems to have been Meropide's nurse for a long time, she knows exactly what kind of environment and what kinds of people she's working with. So I imagine the archon quest wasn't a one-off kind of event and Wriothesley involves her in his decisions and actions more often than not! She's someone he can trust with a lot. And he's someone who knows what she's like, so she can study human behavior all she likes around him.

(Though it's been a running joke with a of my few friends that Wriothesley is a bit of a weirdo and is very into what makes Mélusines seem off-putting to other people, so I'm sure a few of her results are skewed with him.)

Someone else I'll happily direct you to if you're interested in several walls of text's worth of headcanons is my own partner in crime @feroluce, who's been slowly losing their mind over these two and who I'm pretty sure only needs a single ask to unleash the flood of ideas they have for them!

[boilingrain]

A particularly silly Genshin HC that I have is that Sigewinne swears like a sailor, but not around large groups of people (or Neuvillette). If you're shocked by her swearing, she just pulls a "no one will ever believe you" and it works because she never swears unless she's either alone, with only one person, or with a very small group of people.

If you were to tell Neuvillette about her swearing, he'd either not believe you or he'd assume someone in the Fortress of Meropide taught Sigewinne swear words (several people in Meropide have learned new swears from her)

[dutybcrne]

Sigewinne definitely has a jar of stickers that patients may take One of after each visit to the infirmary, send tweet-

[zapsoda]

did something motivate your recent reblog spam or did you just feel compelled. Was something in your thoughts

tbh i just see those parent/child type headcanons a lot and it annoys me lol. i find that they are frequently ooc and remove agency from the (often female) "child" character

[resolutepath]

[ META ] + Wriothesley's development in the Meropide [all she has witnessed of it anyway] (Sigewinne)

hc prompts. // @delusionaid

Sigewinne is so very proud of Wriothesley.

She has been with him since day one, been at The Fortress longer still, so she knows the effort that has gone into reshaping what was into what is, the calls he's had to make, the hardships he's had to suffer, the troubles that have crept up along the way. And through them all she has seen a determined individual grit his teeth and continue along this path that he has forged.

Personally I headcanon that before Wriothesley became the administrator of The Fortress and took up the mantle of Duke, Sigewinne stuck to the infirmary as feeling around Melusines (as we know from Neuvillette's story quest) was not always favourable. I very much feel like the beginning of coming to care for him and seeing him grow happened within the confines of the infirmary, offering him a safe space to heal and regroup before he had to go back out into the lion's den. There's a familial connection brewing there, though it is muted, one that she only extends as much as it is wanted, and reels in when it is unwelcome. In these muted moments she saw him change from a boy who had accepted his crime to the one who would eventually change Meropide forever and through the process he inspired a loyalty in her that she thought could only be reserved for Neuvillette.

Whch is why since him taking over she has stuck with him, as seen in her story:

"To be consigned to the Fortress is a punishment in and of itself, and even the most youthful and energetic of guards must take a day off after consecutive days of work. Yet Sigewinne has taken precious few of these throughout Wriothesley's entire tenure as administrator. The lights in the infirmary are always on, and it seems they'll never be put out... The motivation behind such enthusiasm may as well be an enigma to guard and inmate alike." - Taken from the game's social media platforms.

The reason for this limited time off is simple. She believes in what Wriothesley is trying to achieve when it comes to Meropide, she's seen the progress he's making and absolutely thinks that with his mind set to it, he will get there. She wants to be there when he does and is curious to see how he is going to change as he hits those goalposts.

Despite this pride in him and fascination with his development, Sigewinne is also wary of the roads he must take and all that he exposes himself to. She is quick to caution him if she sees the road he is turning to be one that bodes ill or poses risk, but she trusts him too. Not blindly, never blindly, but enough to know himself. And if it doesn't work she trusts that she knows how to put him back together; bruises, bloodied knuckles, heavy heart and all. There are times that she fears she may lose him to the violence and darkness that is in Meropide, beyond the changing system, and that is why the infirmary light must always stay on, to be a beacon in a dark, to remind the boy within the man that there will always be a safe space waiting for him to recoup if the lion's den gets too much.

Sometimes she laments that Wriothesley did not get to grow into the person he is in the surface world, but selfishly she is glad she got to witness it first hand. Because it only opened her eyes more to how fascinating humans can truly be.

[allxgene]

//everyone assumes Wrio gave Sigewinne the tranquilizer and taught her how to shoot it...actually it was Clorinde

[rexonalapis]

the wrio & sige happy happy book club hc isnt baseless. wriothesley is clearly well read. he knows his way around human nature because he's read extensive and various depictions of it. a man this patient is able to take his time to read 800 pages novel without dropping it in the middle because of short attention span. clorinde made a joke about gifting him a SET OF LAW BOOKS instead of 'laws for dummies' book which implies that wriothesley can actually grasp the content if he ever unironically decide to read them.

[captivemuses]

Wriothesley #3

Wriothesley has an extra soft spot for Sigewinne because for all the trouble he went through during his own time as an inmate down in the Fortress, Sigewinne was the only person who was consistently nice to him and who he knew he could trust.

She always treated his work related wounds, or injuries he got from other inmates from fights in the Pankration Ring, or just injuries from other inmates because they got in an argument with the teenager. Sigewinne never judged him for his crimes, or what he did while he was trying to survive in the rather chaotic environment down in the Fortress while the previous administrator was in charge. She just took good care of him, patched him up, gave him that little extra TLC that he didn't know he needed (nor was he aware that some of it was influenced by Neuvillette himself), and became the one safe place for him in the entire hell hole.

So now that he's in the position of authority to ensure that Sigewinne always gets treated kindly, there won't ever be a time that the head nurse is allowed to be talked to with anything but kindness and respect. Not without the Duke having something to say about it.
