Can you tell me more about your new blorbos? I don't play genshin impact so the only thing I saw about them is that an attacking skill makes NPCs excited while a giant hat terrifies NPCs

oh my god i would LOVE to (everything else is under the cut since there are genshin 4.0 spoilers and also i go on for a bit)

okay so this is lyney (right) and lynette (left). they are twins, lyney being the older one, and in their show lyney's the magician and lynette his assistant. and they are so so so so precious to me

first of all they have a matching idle animation plus a matching idle voiceline (lyney (paraphrased) has "i wonder how my dear sister is doing... missing me to death, i'm sure!", and lynette (as if in reply) has "sounds like lyney's saying weird things again..."

but that's like surface-level stuff. once you get into their backstory.....

it starts out fairly tame for genshin standards - they were orphaned at a young age and wandered the streets, taking up magic as a means to earn money before getting taken in by a (seemingly) well-meaning aristocrat - who turns out to be using lyney for his magic tricks to gain favour in his social circles, and... basically traffics lynette.

also the cn va absolutely smashed it because lyney's distress is PALPABLE when he relates this bit. and it's no wonder that these two cherish each other so much, they were so close to losing each other forever

and then you get into their character stories and voice lines and it's gut punch after gut punch like

their banter in quests is adorable AND THEY BOTH GAIN VISIONS OUT OF THEIR WANT TO KEEP EACH OTHER SAFE!! THEY ARE SO HHHHHHHHHH

and!! AND!!!!! AS IF THAT'S NOT ENOUGH!! WHEN THEY FALL IN BATTLE THEY CALL OUT FOR EACH OTHER
