Nothing is Enough

Rating: Explicit Pairing: Dewther Featuring: Quintosis. Mean Aether. Hair Pulling. Kink negotiated off screen. Dew being *very* into shame. Oral sex. Aether being a bastard. Dew being completely and totally down for it. Word Count: ~1.7k

Many thanks to @kroas-adtam and @miasmaghoul for encouraging my hair pulling Aether agenda.

“Please,” Dew whispers. A barely there noise that Aether could pretend not to hear. For a second–Dew thinks he really didn’t hear. Aether doesn’t shift, doesn’t say a word. Then, there’s an inhale, deeper than the others. Dew’s stomach flips over, drops, settles somewhere down by his balls. .

“I told you to be quiet,” His voice is cold, sharp. Void of any fondness and Dew feels himself throb. He almost moans with it–this callousness. He longs for it to be used against him. He wants to choke on it.

“My feet hurt, Aeth. Come on.”

“Shut up.”

None of the modern terts we have work well with any of the genes we've been getting since like Flaunt and Flair. They either make the dragon look too busy (thylacine, koi, crackle, flecks, polkadot, wish), hide key parts of the primary genes (underbelly, points, scales, etc), barely make a difference (sparkle, spines) or just have always been extremely situational (looking at you, Peacock and Soap). We DESPERATELY need tertiary genes that can balance out the business of the new genes while adding to the appearence of the dragon in a significant way.

Swiss: If I fall.... Mountain: I'll be there to catch you Aether: *looks at Dewdrop* And what if I fall? Dewdrop: Then I'll fall with you, never leaving your side Phantom: *watches the two declarations thoughtfully before he turns to Rain* Phantom: And if I fall? Rain: I'll be the one who pushed you

*the ghouls driving in the car. Phantom and Dewdrop are sitting in the back, Rain between them* (He hates the middle seat but Phantom and Dew were faster in the car than him and Aether, Swiss and Mountain already claimed the front row.)

*Rain, looking over to Phantom*

Phantom: Hey stop looking out of my window!

Rain: wtf

Phantom, crying: Copia help, Rain won't stop looking out of my window!

Copia, from the drivers seat: Rain, stop teasing Phantom.

*Rain, confused, looking over to Dewdrop*

Dewdrop: Hey, don't look out of my window either!

*Rain starting to cry*

Spoilers for Simulanka Day 3

There's a conversation that I've had with friends from time to time about the fact that the world of Teyvat is, at its core, incredibly kind. Shockingly so, even for most fictional stories that aren't directed towards children. Even though the traveler has faced many antagonists on their journey, the people around them have always banded together to overcome those challenges. Even when people are hurt it's very rare for anyone to die, and many of the antagonists in question aren't pure evil and have their own reasons for taking the actions they take. They may not always operate on the same morality as the traveler or the player, and they might not be "good people", but they still believe that what they have to do is right, or at the very least necessary.

To put it more simply, Genshin is filled with characters that are made to be liked. Not every player will like every character, but very few of them are actively trying to work against you, and even when they do there's still something there to like. Except for like, Il Dottore, but he's likable for how unlikable he is (I have to say that or my Dottore enjoying friend will be sad lmao).

I got to thinking about this when playing the last part of Simulanka because it was a reminder of how, despite the kindness that they've been shown by Teyvat for the past three and a half years, the traveler's morality is still shockingly black and white in many situations.

We see this the most in how they interact with the Fatui. The Fatui, particularly the Harbingers, have cause a lot of damage in the past, but a lot of the grunts are just ordinary people following orders. the commission line in Mondstadt with Viktor, Golden Apple Archipelago 2 and The Chasm come to mind for times when we've interacted with Fatui grunts in a way that really humanizes them and shows that a lot of them really are just people doing a job. Some of them have just been surveyors or low-level guards, but the traveler and Paimon treat them like they're cartoon villains until proven otherwise (and sometimes even after proven otherwise).

The way that they acted towards Simulanka Durin before the party gave him their blessings also seemed to reflect this, especially in comparison to the other party members. Wanderer was obviously the most sympathetic to Durin, since his memories were like looking into a mirror for him, but Nilou, Navia, and Kirara all stepped forward to give Durin their support while the traveler was still showing doubts. They were thinking about how the residents of Simulanka might not forgive Durin, or how his form was too big and scary to coexist with everyone, which was an incredibly unsympathetic outlook even though they were ultimately able to change Durin's form.

It honestly reminds me a lot of how the traveler treated Scaramouche/Wanderer in Inversion of Genesis, like he was a person to be kept the company of only out of necessity as a means to keep him under control, even after Nahida said that she trusted him. Even though something did go wrong at the time, it still showed that the traveler's suspicion and distrust of Scaramouche was strong enough to outweigh their trust of Nahida, despite Nahida having proved herself many times to be wise and worthy of trust in the past. That mistrust and even disdain for him even carried over into when he reappeared with no memories, as the traveler was forcefully adamant that he needed to reclaim his memories and atone, to the point that it seemed like they were being a little bit mean about it.

It's arguable that Scaramouche deserved that treatment, since he was kind of a little shithead who caused a lot of harm in the past, but the traveler was also witness to how deeply he was hurt and manipulated in the past, and therefore would have some kind of understanding of why he turned out the way that he did.

Despite the traveler's usual helpfulness in Simulanka, Nilou, Navia, and Kirara all feel like contrasts to them. Nilou's whimsical outlook and positive mindset allowed her to grasp the magic of creation and even gave her the initiative to try and change Durin's form with magic in the first place. Navia is used to taking care of "the little guy", as it were, through the Spina, and was therefore willing to listen and empathize with the toy people who didn't want to undo the power of prophecy. (With those guys also being called "conservatives" or a "conservative radical" in English, that doesn't really have a good connotation depending on your political leaning, but Navia listened to them anyway). And with Kirara, while I haven't played her little sidequest yet, the description of her outfit described how the little cat burglar stole and returned the emotions of the cats that they hadn't been given when they were created, casting her in the role of someone who can understand the balance that anger, sadness, and pain bring to happiness.

The three of them, as well as the Wanderer, all carry Teyvat's fundamental kindness with them, and it was then coaxed out of the traveler only when all of them had already stepped forward.

It made me wonder if this is some kind of lesson that the traveler has to learn before reuniting with their sibling, that they need to be more willing to put their trust in people, or at least be more understanding of others. While the abyss twin hasn't divulged too much of what they've learned yet, they've made it clear that there are lessons that the traveler needs to learn about the world before they reunite. While that likely has a lot to do with various truths about Celestia and the sky being fake and all that, perhaps they're hoping for their sibling to learn that at least in Teyvat, sometimes people who cause harm to others are simply trying (or have tried and failed and lost hope) to find a path towards co-existing with others.

Since the abyss twin is supposedly born of Teyvat as well, perhaps they've already understood that part of this world from the very beginning and are waiting for their sibling to catch up.

Mountain, who feels an intense need to be useful.

He was summoned for a reason, right?

Always working from dawn to dusk until he physically can’t anymore. Until Aether has to basically take him out with quintessence, to force him to give his aching joints a break. Mountain will wake up in agony the next morning but it’s ok because right next to him is a quintessence ghoul, ready to ease the pain.

[sentientgolfball]

Do you think Aether hated Rain when he was first summoned?

This was the reason Dew got burned into a different person? Him? This snobby water ghoul who acted like he was better than everyone. How could he ever hope to be Dew’s replacement when was just so cold and rude? Dew was like a sun warmed lake. Inviting and sweet and comforting. Now all he has is Rain?

It’s even worse when he sees Dew slowly start to fall for him. Dew refused Aether’s mate ship because of the ritual. He didn’t want to lose Aether just after getting him. But now he doesn’t know if he’ll ever get him. Dew starts to recover and all he does is spend his time with Rain. It’s like every vision of the future they whispered into the night never existed. All the sweet nothings, all the I love you’s, all their history together. Nothing. All because Rain popped out of the ground.

Rain took everything from him. How could he not hate him?

[countfagula]

More fall/winter domestic Ghoul thoughts because my brain won’t stop:

Aether being the first to take care of anyone when they get the flu because they trust him the most.

Mountain making his nest comfortable enough for all his mates needs incase they want to join him while he hibernates.

Dew pulling them to himself once they get back to the abbey either after outside duties or being in town and cranking up his element so he can warm them up.

Rain making sure they’re all wearing their jackets and coats before they head out and buttoning them for those who need help.

Ifirit lighting the large fireplace in the Ghouls den and gathering everyone from the pile being especially careful with Zephyr when helping them in.

Aurora making everyone coffee,tea or hot chocolate depending on their preference and always making sure she’s mindful of everyone’s dietary needs and allergies.

….ill add more later but yeah

YOU HAVE SUMMONED MY MOST INTENSE KINK OF ALL TIME. MIRROR SEX + DUMBIFICATION + MEAN AETHER COMETEBDJJRJJDJEJEKRJEJEJ MY BRAIN HAD JUST GONE BACK TO NORMAL FROM YESTERDAY AND NOW IS BACK TO NOTHING BUT MUSH AGAIN.

one of the things that lives in my head RENT FREE is dew getting fucked on all fours, with his hair being pulled by aether, making he look up at the mirror in front of him, so aether can see his expressions as he destroys him.

prepare to get sent 1729272 messages from me talking abt mirror sex. don't say I didn't warn you.

-📼

Oh god fucking LORD.

That's a fucking IMAGE. I'm drooling over it. I can't BREATHE about it. fuck. FUCK. no no no you can send me mirror sex shit as much as you want. It's one of my favorites. I'm living for the visual of Aeth knowing EXACTLY when Dew starts to tear up so he can call him on it. Keeping a firm hold on Dew's hair so that he can't hang his head like he wants to. Dew's elbows keep threatening to give out, to dump him on the ground but he's fighting so hard because he needs to be good he has to be good.

i think the funniest thing about Genshin is how the storyline completely fucks you over.

the beginning is pretty straightforward, honestly: you and your sibling were traveling to this world and had a fight with a god that you lost. you crash landed and ended up in a coma. woke up, your sibling is missing, and you go off to talk to different god and try and find your sibling.

if you pay even mild attention to the storyline and fast-forward a couple adventures,

there's some primordial god fucking with you, none of the gods you've met are actually really gods technically, there's been like 5 different civilizational genocides in the past 1000+ years that nobody seems particularly concerned about, your sibling is and isn't your sibling and is also maybe evil? (unclear), the world may be in a time loop, NPCs die every other world quest, the key to all your questions is a nation that got completely smited and cursed 500 years ago, and your most helpful kind-of ally is the guy that shows up once a year, cryptically trauma dumps some lore, and then fucks off again.

welcome to genshin impact.
