#oh yeah. ive been playing hsr a lot

Asta really saw Arlan and immediately went "is anyone gonna adopt him" and didn't wait for an answer

[hulahoopsoupgroup]

good evening everyone. i have decided that i need to write more, so ive made a list of ships/other platonic dynamics from genshin and hsr that i like, and i'll be writing some short blurbs about them over the next month or so

day 1: cyno x tighnari

tighnari quietly peered over the book he was reading, some 500 page tome about plants that nobody else in the house except himself understood. cyno stumbled into the living room, his red eyes dim with fatigue as he put his bag down beside the front door before going straight to tighnari, flopping down on the couch beside him and leaning his whole bodyweight against him.

tighnari put the book down onto his lap and brought one hand up to gently comb through cynos hair.

"rough day at work?"

"just very tedious. people are stupid sometimes," cyno muttered, sitting up to grab the tcg deck that he always kept on the coffee table. he quietly shuffled through the cards, arranging them on the table in different teams. tighnari could practically hear the gears turning in his head as he mulled over the best teams at his disposal, eventually pulling out a sketchbook and messily scribbling the shapes of a few exotic plants.

"how was your day?" cyno asked after a while, "hows that new class youre teaching?"

"its alright, i suppose," tighnari muses, eyes not leaving the page, "much less stuffy than the akademiya, thats for sure. less pretentious, too. i think itll turn out alright."

one of tighnaris ears twitched at the sound of quiet footsteps coming down the stairs. a timid collei crept into the room, eyes landing on cyno and tighnari. she nearly walked right back up the stairs, something the botanist had learned was a habit of hers from her old house, but tighnari softly called to her,

"hey, its alright. you can come down here if you want." he watched as the girls body language started to become more relaxed, and he began to relax as well. the past month had been quite rough on all of them, especially with the legal battles of getting custody of the 13 year old and putting her poor excuse for a father in prison. however, moments like these provided even the briefest moments of respite and glimmers of hope of a future that needn't be plagued with anxious tremors or jolting flashbacks of the past in the dead of night.

collei quietly made her way over to the couch, sitting on the side opposite to cyno and tighnari.

"how was your day, collei? did you do anything fun?" cyno asked, trading his tcg deck for a regular deck of cards and beginning to build a tower out of them on the coffee table.

"it was...good? im learning a lot of science-y stuff from mister tighnari," the girl mumbled quietly.

"your handwriting is getting quite good," tighnari said, glancing at her with a soft smile before returning to his sketches of plants that now littered the page in front of him, "almost better than cynos," he added with a chuckle.

cyno glared at him, adding another tier to his house of cards. "your handwriting is a slew of cursive, not much better than mine." tighnari elbowed him in the ribs, but cyno remained steady, and his tower of cards stayed upright.

"oh, by the way, what music were you playing in your room earlier?" tighnari asked.

"oh, i- uh," collei stuttered, "i can turn it down if you want. sorry if it was too loud..."

"no, it wasnt at all. it actually sounded familiar. i liked it a lot."

"oh. it was a lot of stuff from the 1950s, like," collei paused to remember the names of the artists, "nat king cole...frank sinatra...louis armstrong."

"i have a cd of frank sinatra in our bedroom," cyno mused as he added yet another tier to his card tower, "do you want to borrow it?"

"s-sure...by the way...is there any food in the kitchen i could use to cook? i didnt eat dinner earlier..."

"yeah, of course," tighnari said, already moving to get up.

"...i didnt have time to eat at work, either," cyno quietly said.

"then come on, you too. looks like im going to be the chef again tonight."

🔥 anon reporting in 🫡

so true... i haven't played the recent patch in hsr yet (really hoping they'll replace moze's lines next update) but i'm so excited to meet feixiao she seems so cool!

i had a thought yesterday about slowly pulling down mavuika's zipper while kissing down her body 🥰

also mavuika's quote on xilonen's drip marketing... i love how casual she is omg she's so cute.

yeah 😔 i'll always feel bad for poor itto... since they are slowly updating models a bit though there is some hope!

that's fair! in general there are times i feel like redesigns can be better than the official designs (some great nilou redesigns come to mind).

ei and miko were great, hopefully they'll appear in game again soon. i feel like it's been ages since we've last seen ei in particular.

understandable, i was playing genshin a lot less frequently when i started playing hsr and even that made me feel overwhelmed with getting caught back up even though i didn't quit entirely. it's really a shame how hard it is to get back into it If you stop playing for a while... i hate the reliance on fomo so much. i really like how in hsr you can play a lot of events later if you missed them.

oh I heard about that mozes drama…yeah they GOT to replace his voice lines. im so excited for feixiao because I love her design and her personality so far. geez have you seen those muscles??? whewwww

i haven’t heard her quote about the pretty jaguar woman’s drip marketing but ik she would say sum our himeko would say (correct me if im wrong).

bro they did itto soosooooooo dirty like that man is an oni, WHERE IS HIS BEEF??? how is wrio a bigger man than THE itto?

sumeru’s redesigns were great too, i seen sum stuff on nilou and it was sooooo good??? esp nahida’s redesigns im so disappointed the way she turned out tbh.

I’ll hop back on genshin if miko and ei show up again idcccc

yeah once hsr came out i just abandoned genshin and I have way too much to do on there that it’s overwhelming too. good lord. i think im behind on hsr since I haven’t really played inna while. ive prob missed some events too.

[narwhalandchill]

(just my 2.3 pull / general hsr rambles/rant but i get negative abt fireflys characterization again so thought id hide it for all the fans sake. good for yall & good luck pulling her i just cant get into her)

welp got my e1 gallagher (+ e2 mika) in 30 pulls on firefly so thats it from me, ill get e2 from the character selector so at least thats sth!!! i have been playing him a bit even at e0 and i do overall like how he feels so getting him to that e2 breakpoint where he rly starts to thrive as a sustain pick is v nice

anyway no early firefly which is whatever i consider her in game writing an absolute failure anyway and havent cared enough to watch Any of the trailer stuff either bc like . they lost me in 2.0 im sorry girl no matter how hypothetically good those trailers could be the writing team lost me forever at the ayaka-teppei forced date arc and thats it lmao . she couldve been an actual character but oh well what matters is shoving how cute and perfect and sad and in love with TB she is down ur throat at every fucking moment . her idle animation is so fucking bad too it made me laugh irl at how awful and cheap the fanservice is w her like yeah alright navia idle (which is already the worst idle in genshin i hate it) 💀💀💀 how do you do a characters potential this fucking dirty holy shit . we havent shilled firefly self insert ship to players enough so lets upskirt her too uwu!!!!!

But uhhh yeah thats a me being a hater thing ultimately i just physically cannot stand characters like this and first impressions do matter . Dont let me ruin her for u. nothing but props to her VA too like as much as her general characterizations appeal has been unsuccessful on me still shes been giving it the Absolute most to try to make her feel real and sympathetic and i respect that a lot

Still tho only thing that rly sucks w not just getting firefly at 4 pity or whatever and being done w it is just the. Welp Guess ill proceed to be unable to full clear any of the next 7 AS or MoC updates bc i pulled the wrong characters instead of Good Meta Dev Faves acheron and firefly like havent rly been a fan of the way the shilling has been going recently . like i just have rly shit matchups into the weaknesses of most stages these days and idk i havent even felt like Bothering to do PF 4 bc i just. DoT PF is always the fucking worst and i genuinely dont know what the hell to try to slap at it for a clear. guess my bad for not pulling swan either like truly my mistake . whatever its just a game .

Actually am i getting like burnt out ? well tracks for a honkai game i suppose. ig it also has to do w just the absolutely abysmal luck ive had now like. ive lost LC 75-25 of the 3 times i went for it TWICE . ive lost 50-50 like 5 times in a row now lmao and fully expect to lose on jade too at this point 🙃 might not even manage to get her at all . Sigh guess thats gacha at its worst for u

Sorry this got way more negative than i thought HSJSKSKSKSKSKD i hope the 2.3 story ends up being good at least so theres Sth good about it . and its not like i will die not clearing endgame content w full stars or sth it just sucks bc the way its happening just feels bad

edit: yeah im @ coffee break at work and it took me this fucking long to realize i just casually typed mika instead of misha JSJSTUHTS8J5Z9 💀💀💀💀 im so sorry misha youre way better than that nerd 😭😭😭😭😭 esp at c2 w the def shred i might even build him who knows . So sorry for this

[lostacelonnie]

Sorry this took a bit to get to time slipped right by & life happened a bit. Plus i got my first tattoo & thus couldn't use my right arm as well for a bit. Weather here has been like. Back & forth between rain/snow & mostly sunny so i can only blame the horrors. Oh good! Im glad its mostly easy stuff for you this month. Wait what? Thats all wild & im glad those teachers got fired for that. If only we were that regulatory of teachers in the states. A win win situation indeed. A carnival? That does sound like a lot of fun i gotta add that on my list of stuff to hopefully see one day. Yeah honestly! Like something about schools just. Is way different & can only be explained by school air. Thank you! I got sparkle decently quick which i needed her for her buffs so im glad. Those 30 free pulls from the anniversary will help my archeron gain i hope. Shame jingliu is in the same patch so ill have to wait for her again. One day clara will come to me. I hoped it would be on sparkle's banner but i got e1 gepard instead. I cant even reach gold & gears because the final boss of swarm disaster is still beating my ass i need better imaginary units. Or to work on ratio maybe he can deal with that damn boss duplicating itself. Oh talents are another thing i should focus on maxing for characters i just. Keep forgetting. Next patch we have triple drop coc & su planar ornaments which is gonna be nuts i cant wait to farm then. Ive played wendy's arc a bit more & like. Wow cocolia is awful what the hell. Worst mom of the year. Im excited for you to continue them both are so good. Oh thats what all that was about okay. Seele best girl always. Oh no worries take all the time you need to jot it down. Yeah some people get. Real intense about their us patriotism & its. Embarrassing. My condolences on losing such an impressive noita run. One day ill get into honkai part 2. But for now its a slow movement through part 1

ah very fair and apologies on my part as well!!! yknow how it is. same old same old. i was personally also Quite busy with our dear beloved school festival which drained me for like a solid week 😭😭 but it was SO worth it. im def helping with it next year as well. AND YOO TATTOO??? THATS AWESOME....... man i wanna get tattoos when im older (and piercings. i dont have a Single one i feel inferior to like all of my friends) but ive never really known what Of. and yeah same with the weather..... it was like. 9 celsius like two days ago and its 25 celsius today. Wild. and thankies!!! i Got Through it (with varying results tbh) but not anything to get me really down so we chillen. AND YEAH RIGHT???? our school is just generally a hotspot for strange individuals (both students and teachers) but its usually in the positive way. but ah what can you do. and yeahhhhh i heard it kinda sucks in the us. and same!!! ive heard a Lot of things about the carnivals in spain since theyre a pretty Big Thing and our teachers love to tell us about them so i actually ended up looking quite a bit forward to seeing one someday. if money allows for it, that is. AND GOD FOR REAL. school air my beloathed school air. OH CONGRATS ON THE SPARKLE!!! to be fully honest i do Not know what her kit is because i wasnt playing That much when her banner was up. or rather focused more on just going through penacony, both story- and exploration-wise. AND GOOD LUCK ON ACHERON!! i managed to get her, her lightcone, AND claras eidolon in like. a 100 pulls which is probs a new record for me. currently saving but i dont know who for yet SHJD. ill see if any future penacony chars interest me (ive been Thinking about boothill, or aventurine for clara) but if not then its gonna be either jingliu or topaz. and ahh good luck with getting them as well in the future!! GOD I HATE THE SWARM. I HATE THE SWARM SO MUCH. GAHHH. the most annoying enemies in the game by a MILE. but ah what can you do. oh yeah very real i always forget in genshin but luckily dont really have that problem in hsr. and yeah im Waiting for that triple drops for my acheron since rn she just has. Very scuffed temporary gear. but not gonna lie her damage is pretty good regardless. i think the mechanic with not needing energy to use her ult but stacks of That One Thing instead is very fun and interesting. brings a bit of spice into the gameplay. AND AHHH I HAVE VERY COMPLEX FEELINGS ABOUT COCOLIA shes a really interesting character imo. but thats revealed a bit more in the later arcs so i wont share too much hehehehe. tho yeah i agree she is Not a great mother. SEELE BEST GIRL ALWAYS!!!! and thankies!!! also yeah... but at least theres a lot of ways one can make fun of them. i literally cant stop saying "MY PRONOUNS ARE U/S/A" whenever i get a good mark on my english tests its just embedded in my vocab now. and have fun with honkai!!!!

[chiyoso]

yua, let me tell you a tale.

that therapy session ended EMOTIONALLY AWKWARD, well not awkward... like, we were both aware abt both our demeanors and lingering gazes, and he did bring it up.

BUT IM GETTING TOO AHEAD OF MYSELF

let's start from the beginning, introductions done, shyness was apparent from me, but eventually he made me comfortable, felt safe, (typical therapy code of conduct etc idfk) moving on, he immediately noticed the way i effortlessly redirect topics that im uncomfortable with, the way i automatically dismiss anything good about myself, shiiit he was so observant, so much more than me its scary and relieving — I COMMENTED ABOUT THAT.

praising him and talking about my relief that i wasn't the only one like this, exchanging acknowledgements and etc.

now comes the serious shit, when i got asked, reassured often, i started to think abt my ex as to why he couldn't do this bare minimum bullshit my HOT GETO LOOKING ASS THERAPIST was doing, he noticed my shift in mood and expression and starting writing down shit — in which i assume stuff to remember, deducting stuff as to why im like this etc

then he just had to go and say shit like "are you alright?" "do you need refreshments?" "you're safe, you know that, right? i'm also aware you fear opening up because ill consult your mother, she's hired me for you, not her, okay?" my tears were literally on the verge of dropping, but i was like really confuckled as well, why was he saying all those things without difficulty? why can this guy do this without an ounce of effort while my ex thought of me expressing was me gaslighting him and playing victim???

"-you can cry." bro. i did, i let everything out. AGAINST HIS KNUCKLES THAT HE LET ME GRIP AND WEEP AGAINST IT.

but i wasn't flustered or anything obv, he told me afterwards that he may have triggered me, thats why i suddenly yknow... wanted to cry because of the bare minimum he was giving me

oh and he didn't wipe his knuckles btw, think that would slip my observations!?!!?!?? THINK AGAIN

oh and, if you want to know the dynamic of my past relationship - you can read uhh my hsr blade fic, but remove the whole reunion and still being in love part, ex was a fucking asshooooolleeeeeeee, ruined my whole teenhood fr :(((

...i should also mention i accidentally confessed to my therapist that he was attractive with a typical dismiss of myself and redirecting the compliment towards him, like not "you're so hot" I COULD NEVERRRR,,, it was a genuine compliment to his appearance and HE TOOK A SCARY PAUSE???? i think he was observing me too, but i couldn't tell - my eyes were ANYWHERE but his, if he responded eagerly, i think it would've been unprofessional of him, so there was an unspoken air of mutual understanding about it, we weren't dumb cmon

he did say thank you quietly though, but he looked kinda confused? and ive seen enough anime and dramas to know it was a sad smile, tf is going on with himmmmmmmmm

oh, when the serious stuff was done, after work hours, we were actually laughing together a lot NNNGHHHH like getting to know each other — FUCKING BANTERING HELLO???!!!?!!!!! but he had to compose himself when he welcomed my momma again! i also excused myself abruptly and sprinted towards his bathroom to process.

yeah, i shrieked. mom heard, geto heard, we're now calling him geto cause my THERAPIST LOOKS LIKE HIM BUT WITH GLASSES AND HE LOOKED LIKE A LITERATURE TEACHERRRRR

im actually just spilling the main plots but there was so much shit happening i cant say it all in this one post cause im so embarrassed help

ERR !! are... are there ppl who enjoy reading long ass fics abt their faves?

this scaramouche oneshot from WEEKS ago is probably reaching 8k+ or even hella more, shits longer than any of my previous fic holy shit 😭

i'm also simultaneously writing a toji smut, and an alhaitham x violinist reader oneshot, that IM ALSO SO GLAD I HAVENT PUBLISHED MY NEUVILLETTE ONESHOTS BEFORE I PLAYED FONTAINE'S ARCHON QUESTSSSSSS

also sorry for my absence, my momma schedule me a therapy session in secret (since ive been begging for one months ago) AND what are the odds that she found a hot, GETO SUGURU built fucking late 20s guy???1?1??!?1!!

fucking manbun, serious as fuck, HOT AS FHCK

he was seizing me UP, making me feel all vulnerable n' shit without crossing things, but he was also intrigued by my observant and duality of a personality oml how did i SURVIVE

will probably make a story time out of it if some are interested

[lostacelonnie]

Totally understandable ive been dealin with long work & other stuff so i feel ya. My energy levels have been all over the place. Ooh have fun in alicante! Right? Like hey im here sorry ive just been havin a time. Love discord. Hell yeah good times with good friends is always phenomenal news. Oh? Kudos for that there should be a badge for not having gulls try to steal your food. Australian magpies are notoriously asshole birds there's a whole chunk of time called swooping season where they get so vicious that mail people have to wear thick helmets to protect their head. Theres like. So much to learn in history & having adhd makes it hard so i have to pair it with like. A podcast or something to focus but it has grown on me recently too. Wish i could say the same of geography. Cool teachers are the lifeblood of learning i had so many cool science teachers. Thanks! Wolfie & kafka are my other goals of characters to get where i dont have them. Ive just been trying to catch up on the story & finally finished the luofu story. Building characters for me is just yeah this works i dont focus so hard on it anymore. No time for all that. I used arctic fox purple dye which allowed me to not have to bleach my hair so maybe thats an option? Im so ready for furina i have like. 335 wishes ready. I like team building in star rail its more. Relaxed than in genshin it feels like. Pela stays because her debuff is so helpful especially on the luofu. Bye pesky mara struck revival buff. May the courage to wear your choker in public come to you. I have & get compliments when i do. & may the future bring still easy exams for you

thankies ajskdglskjf as you can see it happened Again. ahhhh. school. AND THANK YOU IT WAS EXTREMELY FUN!!!! much better than my first trip there. got to eat SO much spanish food and omg i love all of it. not a single dish i disliked. plus i got to get my needed dose of the sea again! much more than my needed dose, in fact. we went to the beach EVERY EVENING. ive never been by the sea at night b4 and its such an awesome experience...... esp with the besties........... BUT AHEM. ANYWAY. YEAH DISCORD REALLY IS GREAT IN THAT WAY. and thank you o7 i also managed to avoid being robbed by them this time, despite the fact i was literally eating a salami sandwich next to an entire SWARM. every day i thank my luck for that. AND OH GOOD LORD????? HELMETS????? friendliest australian animal i guess 😭😭and ahhhhhh i feel you on that. luckily being diagnosed with the 'tism makes it so that teachers are obligated to let me draw during lessons so at least thats nice. and tbh with geography its funny cos like. i dont really Care about it but 1. its probs one of the easiest extensions and 2. i have an epic prof so i ended up liking it quite a lot as well. AND FOR REALLLLL tha AMOUNT of subjects ive never had a solid opinion on bc of how dependent it is on the teacher. for example my current teacher somehow managed to make me like PE. which feels illegal and yet. anyway, moving on! GOOD LUCK ON GETTING THEMMMMM wolfie has never left my team since i got her. shes op. the luofu story was so good................ tbh i dont rlly know what going on in hsr rn since i for real havent logged in since the release of luofu's last act and am not really planning to but Oh Well. i treat building chars the same way tbh [other than in honkai where i Do actually try to get good gear], i usually dont bother doing anything with my chars if im not outright struggling. not worth my time. AND AHHHHH THATS SO EPIC....... im still hovering around 175 since i havent really played recently but ahhhhh im hyped. and yeah i agree, i feel like its. Easier. to get a good team in hsr than in genshin, not to mention building it. since in genshin a lot of teams are dependent on 5* like raiden for example. who i Do Not Have, by the way. maybe one day. yeah pela IS great omg. AND THANKIES!!!! THE MOMENT I GET EVEN MARGINALLY MORE CONFIDENT ITS OVER FOR EVERYONE. and, once again thx o7!! i managed to get 100% on a chemistry short test so im gonna treat that as a good sign

[lostacelonnie]

Tumblr is a functioning site & ive got goldfish memory which is a bad combination. We as people should all take more time to swim in the sea for our health tbh. Rice truly is a side dish of all time true mvp. Long as you pick up the vibes they were dropping i think thats enough dont gotta fully understand them. Ooh yeah who wouldnt be glad to be out of a place thelat earned the name broom closet. Oh yeah one bathroom to share for multiple rooms is the worst. Bad design. Yeah! I am enjoying star rail even if i cant play too long because it eats my phone battery. I am definitely not that far in i think i got stuff to do still. I just finished the first quest encounter with simulated universe. I will catch up on hi3 someday when i have much more time than i do now. Oooh heck yeah vacation from school is always a bonus

god i have the EXACT same problem tbh. even on memory meds right now but theyre Not working so i still dont remember anything Ever. oh well it is what it is. and yes so true honestly. im usually not that much of a sea person [beaches are always crowded and the sand. good god. i hate sand] but sometimes you just gotta do it and life is just a bit better afterwards. SO true where would we as a society be without rice. and yeah thats true even for languages i DO speak fluently sjdkgk. theres always gonna be a couple fancy words ya dont understand but as long as the general message gets through its not a big deal. and yeah dhfjg definitely A Room. actually speaking of that my class is going for a [one sided, no ones getting sent from there to here] exchange to spain in october and the city that got chosen is. alicante. so i guess im never gonna be free of that place. but its ok alicante is nice. and ah cool !! ive also been playing star rail quite a lot tho tbh since i was a bit busy recently if i have to choose between hi3 and hsr i always go for hi3. old habits die hard. im quite excited for 1.1, i miiiiight try to get silver wolf since she sounds very fun and with a bit of effort i might still manage to grind for kafka. simulated universe is quite fun i think!! i definitely dont dread it nearly as much as having to do elysian realm every week. auto mode my beloved. and fair shdfj there is quite a Lot of stuff to catch up on so gl with that !! and so very true i have like one more school day to go [id usually go on wednesday as well but. have a thing i gotta do] so im so close to reaching the checkpoint
