#he's saying bow your head (burst voiceline)

[remnri]

made a little thing for my journal

[pseudowriter69]

to everyone who has encouraged me, thank you. unfortunately, my brain is very small. i will probably not get everything, but i'll try my best

red masks on the same place on their heads

bow users who canonically can use alternate weapons

both a part of a military-esque organization of their regions

has been a part of said organizations since they were young

"noble" antagonists (childe is nice to his underlings + says he doesnt want to hurt weak people, and sara literally releases a prisoner in her first appearance)

gets lied to in the main story (zhongli and signora lie to childe, lotta people lie to sara)

in the voicelines, One Friend Only (zhongli to childe and shinobu to sara)

childe: skirk taught him, pulcinella is a familial figure, and the tsaritsa is his archon. sara: yae miko "trained" (read, trick into believing in asceticism [kagura's verity lore]) her, kujou takayuki is her adopted father, and the raiden shogun is her archon

despite being smart (childe was able to deduce things very quickly in the labyrinth event, and sara figured out that the main suspect wasn't the actual murderer in heizou's hangout quest) they get tricked easily

devoted to their archons, and defends them, (your mileage may very on whether the archons actually deserve it)

both have somewhat gray moralities (childe is. well. childe. and sara fully believes in whatever the shogun believes in)

fell from a great height at a young age (childe fell into the abyss, sara fell from the mountains/forest)

drastic change in personality at a young age (before the abyss, childe was considered shy, and kagura's verity states that sara had an unruly personality before being adopted)

gets constant Ls in the main story (along with a Big L by signora near the end of their archon quests)

their attacks look visually similar to some of the abyss heralds (childe's melees vs the hydro abyss herald and sara's burst vs the electro abyss herald's lightning attack)

"weapons" (childe is a harbinger solely for his combat prowess and sara was adopted bc she had a vision)

hoyoverse is very rude to them (the qixing blames childe for everything that happened in liyue while kujou kamaji becomes the next clan head instead of sara even though she is 1. a general and 2. literally stated to be a worthy heir in raiden's voicelines)

i think that's basically it. i think they would have a very interesting dynamic if they became friends. when will it happen hoyoverse??

every day i have to physically stop myself from talking about the similarities between kujou sara and tartaglia from genshin impact
