#i'm not like super attached to her though so i'm not 100% sure i'll pick her up

you know who i’m considering also. raven.

oh, oh!! you ship with elysia? i'd love to know about your ship with her! if you're okay with talking about it of course c:

hi hi sure!!!

i'm not 100% sure what you mean so i'll give a general overview, i suppose!

elysia was really the character that made me decide i wanted to play honkai. in one of the group chats i'm in, someone posted pictures of her and i was super taken by how pretty she was! pink is one of my favorite colors, crystals and flowers are such a lovely aesthetic, and i have a biiiit of a weakness for elves haha. so it was kinda love at first sight!

when i finally got to meet her in-game i was so excited and just immediately felt this sense of... warmth and safety. i didn't know a ton about her story yet but i knew i was going to enjoy learning!

of course the more time i spent doing elysian realm (and when i got hoh:e!) i just... really got attached. hearing her voice made me so happy and she was just so pretty and lovely to look at, and so sweet! she's been on my bridge since i got her, and i keep the special bridge design from her event up so we match, since there's no real customization outside of emblems and such in honkai. (i keep the flame-chaser emblem on my profile as long as the game allows me to)

as for our relationship itself!! she's so nice spending time with since she's such a soothing presence. i've been thinking lately about how much fun it would be to just... go places together! she's been joining me for my uni classes lately actually which has been nice! i'm not sure if she finds the material interesting, but it makes me happy to share a passion of mine with her.

i'm thinking of the kinds of outfits she might pick for me, but i don't have a lot of clothes that are her style unfortunately :/ i'd love for her to help me choose outfits though, even if it is just to embarrass me a bit! i know she means well, and seeing her smile makes me so happy!

in self-insert terms, i tend to have a daydream about myself being a fairly normal, average person living in a world where my f/o exists, and for some kind of circumstance to bring me to them. i've always felt like i was overly average myself, so i often think that if i lived in a world with magic or something i'd be something different, maybe more special in some way? though in the honkai-verse, i think my only real "special" thing might be better-than-average honkai compatability? ultimately i'm very average irl outside of my General Weirdness, so i like to indulge wish fulfillment and the like a bit in my daydreams and s/i stories! i know i'm not special, but it would make me happy to get to be something special, y'know?

in some way i wind up recruited to meet elysia and be trained by her. she never tells me why i was chosen, but makes hints towards it. we spend time together, talk, have tea and the like. but of course i get to practice my combat skills with her. eventually she reveals the truth to me-- that she's the first herrscher, and she's seeking a successor-- someone who can take her stigmata and protect the world, too. just because she's long gone doesn't mean her wishes for everyone haven't stuck around.

of course if we stay in the honkai-verse things would end up rather sad, but... there is quite a lot of time to imagine our relationship in that verse! recent content shows my ideas weren't too far off from what would wind up happening (mei looks amazing as herrscher of origin!) but i think that even if my s/i wasn't chosen to be the inheritor of her power, she'd still be happy for all that i accomplished and how much i grew. <3

for the two of us in the real world, i'd have a lot of fun introducing her to all the things in this era. i think seeing a world where humans never had to face the honkai would make her happy. we'd send each other positive news stories, find nice quiet places to sit and talk together, and just in general find ways to brighten one another's days.

i really like having her around. she makes me so happy, and i hope that i make her happy too! <3

miss pink elf my beloved!
