[i23kazu]

♡ THE HELL YOU MEAN YOU'RE HIS LOVER?!

characters. xiao zhongli diluc kaeya childe wriothesley x gn!reader genre. romantic fluff. an. part 1 !!!! when someone else claims to be their partner / work wife. office!au. | please reblog!! im getting back into writing and reblogs with tags and comments will make me want to write more :D

xiao

you're pretty taken aback by the gall of this .... intern? whoever even was she? to claim that she was your husband's wife.

yep, that's how irrelevant she is

xiao was disgusted, to say the least. horrified.

"get your hands off me." he looks her in the eye, the sudden fierceness emitting a gasp from her.

"i love it when you're strict," she purrs, tracing her fingers up his neck. you smack them away.

"perhaps you'll love it if the ceo was stricter with you," you smile sweetly. "i don't think he takes too kindly to homewreckers."

zhongli

not again. not this ... piece of dirt? no, that might be an insult to his old friend guizhong.

she's a catty lady. beady eyes that went straight for his soul – her piercing stare seemed to always follow him.

he didn't like it one bit. his grip around your waist felt tighter, desperate even – a cold "let's go, dear," escaping his lips.

"so protective, suddenly?" you tease.

"i don't take kindly to those who try to insult my love, dearest."

diluc

oh, he goes red with rage. but he looks on at you proudly, because he knows you got it.

who even was she to claim that she loved him? a silly flowergirl who couldn't do her job right, because she was oogling him the whole time. she worshipped the ground he stepped on.

"who are you looking at?" you tap her on the shoulder, eyes wide with innocent curiosity.

"that man... he's mine." she gazes into his eyes, looking him up and down. you scratch your neck. she asks if you're alright.

"i'm afraid i'll have to correct you on that statement. that man is mine." you grin, turning your hand to show her your ring.

kaeya

okay, you totally get it. your husband is hot. but literally the AUDACITY the lack of SHAME the the the-

"please, we've been put together for almost all our cases. isn't that right, darling? it's almost as if they know we're good for each other." they purr.

darling?? DARLING?? you'll show them darling

"is that so?" you chuckle. "perhaps i ought to write in, then. i'm not too sure if my husband takes well to that. a violation of his personal life, if you will."

they go white at the sight of the ring.

"that's my love." kaeya chuckles, watching then stomp away.

childe

he's wildly uncomfortable. "your complexion is deeply concerning, tartaglia," the doctor chuckles.

"i wonder why." he returns it dryly.

he's too nice to avoid them – those longing stares, the notes slipped through stacks of his paperwork – he cant crumple them up and throw them away. he pretends that they're from you instead.

when that witch comes around to his desk, purring and grimy witch hands all over his papers; pretending to annoy him – 

he can't take it. it's disgusting.

"i'd appreciate it if you left me alone," he stares at her. "my partner and i would appreciate it very much."

wriothesley

oh, he's firm. he's firm, and he's strict about it. word gets around quickly in the meropide, and he sits back with his cup of tea and sighs at the thought of a work lover.

he doesn't stand for it, though. he hates the thought of that.

"get your hands away from me, please," he replies coldly, when they run up to hug him, first thing in the morning.

sigiewinne looks on with a proud smile. i raised that boy.

the girl turns away from him with disgust – from seemingly perfect to nothing but sludge beneath her feet. she slinks away, and wriothesley is satisfied.

he can't wait to tell you the news over a cup of your favourite tea.

perhaps some alone time with each other will do the both of you good.

【 # 001 】 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐈𝐄𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄

fallacy (n.) : are flawed, deceptive, or false arguments that can be proven wrong with reasoning.

𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐘 : As a veteran AR60 player of Genshin Impact, you pride yourself as someone who knows the ins and outs of Teyvat, even studiously completing Spiral Abyss every reset, and having 100% exploration to some, if not all, of the released regions so far. Everything is fun and enjoyable, especially since Sumeru just recently debuted so you still have a lot to do!

All that ends though, when a mysterious passerby pushes you off the building of your university while playing Genshin. But instead of meeting your inevitable end, you find yourself waking up in the very world you were addicted to! 

It's supposed to be a fun dream, right? Something you could laugh at when you wake up? Right?! So, why is that you were back in AR1 with nothing but a dull blade in your inventory?!

…well, at least you still have those 700+ sunsettias and mints, Timmie's fowls…and surprisingly similar game mechanics you used to merely see on the screen before. But what should you do now? Flirt with the Genshin men??? Good lords...

"Welcome to Genshin Impact, Dreamer. Here, we can show you a happier ever after you've never had before…so, ready?"

𝐂𝐖 / 𝐓𝐖 : graphic depiction of violence; possible character death (on bad ends so choose your route wisely!); multiple endings (including good, bad, normal and secret ends); canon divergent, game mechanics, existential crisis, character study.

𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐑𝐄 : isekai/reverse isekai, choose your own adventure (cyoa) with branching narratives, romance, comedy, angst (depending on the routes), hurt with/without comfort (still depends on routes), action, mystery, found family.

𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐄𝐒 : albedo, tighnari, zhongli, cyno, xiao, diluc, venti, ayato, kaveh, kazuha and tartaglia. Possible more love interest as the story progresses.

𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐒 : on-going

𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓 :

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐋𝐎𝐆𝐔𝐄 : that love is a fallacy.

𝐀𝐂𝐓 𝐈 : alea iacta est. (the die is cast)

𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐄 𝐈 : argumentum ad hominem.

𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐄 𝐈𝐈 : argumentum ad ignorantiam.

𝐀𝐂𝐓 𝐈𝐈: audentes fortuna iuvat. (fortune favours the bold)

𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐄 𝐈.𝐈 : magister dixit.

𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐄 𝐈.𝐈𝐈 : argumentum petitio principii.

𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐄 𝐈𝐈.𝐈 : ignoratio elenchi.

"𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐈𝐅" 𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐄𝐒

𝐈 | odi et amo ; ( gn!reader × scaramouche ) ; in which scaramouche reveals you the reason why he hates you so much. But in the silence that comes after his hatred is revealed, and from the unspoken words that never leave his lips, would it be too selfish to ask for something more than this? 

𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒 :

reader here is gender neutral, so if I happened to have a pronoun slip by accident, please do correct me. I swear it was a honest mistake cause I don't really proofread my works :3

that being said, although reader should based off of you, as in you reading this, reader has their own background prior to their arrival in teyvat. Down below are some of the changes/characteristics I took the liberty to add to the reader's persona and history to fit in the story!

(i.) reader is a university student studying science or other related field (their specialisation differs in each route to make it interesting). though i did not specify their age, appearance and race (feel free to imagine them whichever), they were supposed to be in the middle of taking their college degree.

(ii.) reader has an adoptive older brother (who would be important in the storyline later on).

(iii.) reader is presented to be quite reckless, a bit ditzy, chaotic, an unhinge and lively character, rebellious, hardheaded, opinion oriented, and wouldn't bend to rules that they see as pointless no matter how the society dictates them to do so, but they were kind and carefree when you get to know them more. you'll see what I'm talking about in the first chapter 😂

before I forgot, although I'm a huge fan of the sagau presented in tumblr (the one with creator and cult themes; those are chef kiss btw), my take on the plot of sagau is very different. There's no divine creator here or cultish behaviours (i'm so sorry if that's what you're looking for 😷) my main focus here is all about the genshin characters' self awareness that they were in a game as they interacted with the isekai!reader, which is why I added the reverse isekai in the genre tags because it will be a huge turnover in the future chapters :>

also, the game mechanics I'm talking about above is what we see on the screen of genshin. Like the Paimon Menu, the inventory, the character archive, and so on! When reader is isekaid, it seems like they brought the whole screen with them? XD

I know stuff will probably be confusing for you and me later on because of the branching narratives happening in this hellhole of a plot, but please bare with me xD I will do my best to make it clear as possible.

This fanfic has four types of routes (or ends if you prefer it that way), There are good ends (romantic happy ending all the way!), bad ends (if you're unlucky that you fall in the dramatic hellhole then yes), normal ends (this could end in either being platonic, a cliffhanger or an open ending up to your interpretation lmao), and lastly, the secret ends (i'll keep whatever this is hidden for now because I planned something huge for this lol).

a "what if" routes are a series of one-shots, short stories or drabbles that was not really connected with the primary routes. It could be read as a standalone fics. Possibly just my word vomit and brainrotting lmao. They also don't have any branching narratives like the primary routes.

well! that is all, i guess! I'll add something later if I remember stuff I should be telling you beforehand but for now, i guess this would do xD also, if you wanted to be tagged for this, feel free to dm me or send an ask about it! Thank you for reading all the way and I hope you will have fun (and a good laughs!) while you were reading this trash of a fanfic lmao 🤣

Ps. I'll try to post the prologue tomorrow since its already half finished already <3

[akutasoda]

🦭 anon here! Hope you're doing well?

I was just thinking about like genshin chars helping you distress after a long day, just purely pampering you

Pure fluff basically if you don't mind

And take all the time you need to write this!:D

there for you, always

synopsis - they will always help you in your roughest times

includes - amber, diluc, ningguang, childe, wriothesley

warnings - gn!reader, fluff, comfort, wc - 390

a/n: hello 🦭anon, im doing alright hope you're doing okay!

amber ★↷

amber who drops everything to help you, despite the scolding she might receive from jean later. notices how stressed you are and hates it, being stressed is not good at all! she knows people have different ways of de-stressing so will be willing to help with anything - although she still encourages you to get more rest as she thinks that's exceptionally helpful no matter who you are.

diluc ragnvindr ★↷

diluc who would take the time to look after you himself and shooing away his maids. as soon as possible he is all over you, doting on you and do whatever you needed to de-stress. anything you say he will see to it, but knows already what really helps you and does that first out of muscle memory. no hesitation if you requested to cuddle with him, he normally has stressful days and this helps him calm down aswell.

ningguang ★↷

ningguang who can be guilty for not properly looking after herself, but will not stand you doing the same. she is very busy and often gets quite stressed - not that people notice - so if you're hoping she would help you, you might have to wait. but she would make the effort to try and get to you as quick as possible to make sure you're properly dealing with the stress. buying, doing or getting you anything to help you de-stress no hesitation.

tartaglia childe ★↷

childe who would do anything to get you back to your best. knows being stressed is awful and is ready and willing to help. no matter what it is, if it'll help you he's doing it as quick as possible. would be very open to cuddles and just enjoying each others embrace, totally not his personal opinion.

wriothesley ★↷

wriothesley who is very familiar with stress and therefore familiar with ways to de-stress - him actually doing them is another topic. again, may take a while to actually look after you himself as he is very busy but in the meantime if you would like he will ask sigewinne to keep you company. but when he can spend time with you he will do anything to help you de-stress as he knows just how bad that can make one feel.

Haunted Houses

Home page

A/N: A little something while I procrastinate formatting my other posts : )

TW/CW: Unrequited love, failing relationships, neglect(?)

Modern AU

You wanted to remain here. Within the comforts of the four walls, you deemed safe enough to return to every day when things never seemed to go your way.

You wanted to remain beside him, to hear his voice every morning and night, to read his texts with a painful smile splitting your lips and to support one another when the world was against you.

You helplessly held on to the dreams of a perfect ‘forever’ when you knew that everything on this earth had its end. Even that which seemed ethereal.

Ever so slowly the veil had been torn away, the skin peeled to reveal a haunted house, abandoned by its two owners who once nurtured the land with every ounce of love that they could muster, until there was nothing left.

Nothing left to give and nothing left to look forward to other than the resolution of every day’s new argument.

You hated it, loathed the coldness the silence brought and yet each night when you closed your eyes, you hoped to open them the next day with his arm wrapped snugly around your waist -just as you used to.

But, you never did.

Instead, you would wake to his slumped back sitting at the edge of his side, shutting you out, as if the memories you clung to were nothing more than the dust beneath his shoes.

It took a long time for you to finally fathom the helplessness of your love- unrequited now, but when he muttered out a solemn “Let’s end this.” one morning, it wasn’t long before he had stepped out of the door and out of your life completely.

Diluc, Tartaglia, Ayato, Kaeya, Al Haitham, Your Faves

Heirs of The Moon

m.list

CW: not proofread cuz i wrote this mid class lmao, mentions of sex, drugging and death (not the mc), dysfunctional family

Summary: Since the death of Crepus Ragnvindr, His two sons have all but severed ties with each other. Only speaking when they must. And neither brother ever fails to remind the other of the reason why. However strong their hatred for each other, they never managed to show such disdain towards their little sister. But perhaps hate would have been kinder then neglect.

Note: This is based off the theory that Pierro is Kaeya's father, and that the Tsaritsa is collecting gnosis to rebel against celestia

Chapter 2: Watchers in The Wall

night gathers and now my watch begins

Mondstat. The Great City of Wind and Wine. Full of Songs and Bards and Freedom to do as one wishes.

It felt real, sitting atop the tallest windmill in the main city, looking down at the people, packing up their things to go to home. Take a rest, eat dinner. The simplicity and uniqueness of every person she took a glance at made her smile, just a little.

The things she never got to enjoy, will never get to experience without casting a cautious glance back.

The things she has protected on behalf of others. While everyone goes to bed, only two people remain awake

it shall not end until my death.

While Diluc takes the supposed mysterious and lowkey job of a vigilante, she takes it as an opportunity to gather information. Get blackmail, intel. Interrogate

She cared not for the wellbeing of others who would not give a shit about hers, had they seen her in danger. Diluc was glorified hero, whilst Lady Albrich, and to her dismay, Her brother Kaeya—were most skilled in strategy and scheme. More her then him, since he too had decided to join the Knights, an incapable lot if you asked her

I shall take no wife, hold no lands. father no children

The last door shut, and her watch began. Pulling a hood over her head, she took a seemingly leisurely walk down the walls of mondstat. Heels clicking, loudly, challengingly, and yet it had no source.

Since the beginning of the end of Autumn in Mondstat, this sound had been one repeating almost every night. It faded to one wall and became louder in the other, surrounding the city and taking it hostage in its grasp

i shall wear no crowns. win no glory

It was eerie, irritating to the ear until it made you wanna scream to drown out the sound. And just when you thought you couldn't take it anymore....

i am the shield that guards the realms of men

It stopped, and seemingly turned into a specific intersection before fading into its victims home.

Today, it was Mikail. For the time being he was no victim but an ally. A Fatuus stationed in Mondstat to report back to his superior, and the intel would get to Lord Tartaglia.

It was amusing really. The ginger truly was a puppy to play fetch with. The Fatui had seemingly bored Mondstat and decided to keep a lazy eye on it. Up until recently when Y/N had made her next move. Did Pierro order more personnel into the city of freedom to watch her.

i am the sword in the darkness

And Mikhail, was to be her plaything until she got all she needed.

Men like him were so easy, anything for a person with a set of tits. Especially when war and violence is added into the equation. Soldiers throw themselves at women's feet for a chance to bask in pleasure before the pain

And Y/N knew how to play them to her needs. Her brothers were aware of her silver tongue, it seemed to run deep in Albrich family. What else she did though, was up to their imagination

Despite hating their little sister they never wanted to acknowledge the sinful things she did. The rumors that went about. They decided to close an ear when it came to things that made their skin crawl to think about her being in. Diluc couldn't give two shits about her fairs until it involved violence. Only then would he almost sound like he cared. Since he didn't pay mind to it when it was his brother the culprit.

Tsk, Tsk. Father wouldn't be pleased

The so-called gentlemen he raised broke up the family they had. How sad

Nonetheless, she knocked a pattern on the door, and was instantly let in by an all too eager, silver-haired male.

Y/N chuckled, "Eager are we? You know what I want Mikhail, do it for me and ill give you what you want." Luckily, this was her last day in his home.

He gazed up with wondrous but annoyed eyes. "Later Later, please i really need you today." He gripped onto her arm, tugging her. But she didn't budge

Y/N lifted her foot off the ground and shoved it into his chest, making him sit, keeping a steady hold on his lower stomach with it. "I won't give you anything if you aren't good to me. That's only fair." He sighed, raising his bare arms in surrender.

"The Balladeer has been turned into a God in Sumeru, soundly defeated by the Traveler however."

She raised a brow, "The Jester allowed this? Doesn't he have hate to all archons and adepti? Even his snow queen gets the stink eye."

"It was an experiment, if they could use it to infiltrate and further progress to Her Majesty The Tsaritsa's goal, it was nothing him and The Doctor couldn't tinker with."

"Is that so? Do you know where The Doctor is now? I heard he returned to Scheznaya." She let go of him and began to take off her coat and heels, making herself comfortable.

Quickly, he hurried to tell her what he had. "Yes, he is. Reporting to Her Majesty, He doesn't plan to leave soon. Make haste." Mikhail grabbed her by the waist and spun her around. Tackling her back to the couch he sat on a moment ago.

Within a few hours the last of her deal with the Fatuus was exchanged. Drying her hair as she quietly walked back into the bedroom, Y/N crouched down to the floor, instead of making a rukus to put her clothes back on, she began to fill a syringe in her bag with polluted water.

It was easy work. Slipping the needle into his arm pressing down gently and watched his body shiver and writhe while she took her time putting her clothes back on.

i am the watcher in the walls

She grabbed her bag and her cloak and quietly stepped out of his home, heels clicking once more as she began to make her way out of mondstat and to her home in Springvale.

"There you are~ " Spoke a voice deep, and familiar. Mocking and angry. She stopped and her glare set on her face naturally.

Turning around, she raised her chin high and looked down her nose.

"Mr. Ragnvindr, to what do I owee the pleasure on this fine night? Out for a stroll..

Darknight Hero?"

Night Gathers and now my watch begins

I hereby pledge my life to King Irmin and the homeland . For this Night, and All nights to come.

wc: ~1.2k

hewwo hewwo, i think i struggled getting their dynamic down, but i hope this turned out ok. ty both for requesting them! also hi nim ur one of my fave writers here asdklfj

---

"You nervous?"

Yes.

"No," Diluc quickly scoffed, but the shakiness in his voice had already given himself away, prompting his head to turn to the side and avoid the amused glint in Childe's eyes.

"Hmm, I don't think I believe you." Normally, the cheeky tone would be enough to set Diluc off and he'd have no problem throwing Childe off of him in the moment, but the subtle eagerness laced into his words sent a shudder through Diluc's body and he could only respond with an apprehensive cough.

"I'd hate to disappoint you, but I don't think you'll get what you're looking for here," Diluc's voice trailed off into a whisper, a feeble attempt at dissuading Childe, though it honestly felt like he was trying to convince himself. He wasn't even sure what there was to be afraid of because surely there'd be no way he'd still be ticklish after all these years.

"Well, why don't we check together, just to make sure," Childe winked, his one hand that pinned Diluc's wrists above his head seemingly growing tighter as he spoke. 

It was futile to shake Childe off at this point and Diluc inwardly groaned, knowing full well that he himself was mostly to blame. The harbinger was an.. interesting person, to say the least, oftentimes displaying personality traits that Diluc would not associate with such a high-ranking member of the Fatui.  The boundless curiosity mixed with his stubbornness and naivete more often than not led to trouble that Diluc would inevitably have to drag him out of, but this time, there'd be no one to keep Childe in place, as Diluc himself was now the focus of Childe's current interest. 

He only had himself to blame, however, because had he not scrambled at the other's attempt at poking him, Diluc might not have piqued Childe's attention on the matter. This only unleashed more potential tickle attacks that Diluc would take care to avoid, but Childe's persistence grew more frequent over time to the point that Diluc constantly had to watch his back for even mundane things, like whenever the two would get dressed together in the morning. "Y'know, most people that actually aren't ticklish would just say so," Childe would often tease him and Diluc knew him to be right, but he could never bring himself to just say "no" because Diluc didn't even know if he was ticklish himself.

His train of thought was broken by the sudden presence hovering just above his stomach and he made the mistake of taking a glance in front of him. Although Childe's free hand still hung freely just a mere inch from its intended target, the way his fingers twitched sent a shiver down Diluc's spine, almost like they were antsy to finally make contact, and Diluc couldn't help but suck in his stomach, as if withdrawing by just the tiniest of space would save him.

"Uh-uh, none of that, now," Childe mused, using his fingers to trail up Diluc's stomach, dragging the white t-shirt up in the process. Diluc flinched at the sudden touch, feeling the cool air on his stomach that contrasted with the warmth of Childe's hand. Light grazes from his fingertips soon awakened the butterflies in Diluc's stomach and he couldn't help but shift in place with the way Childe teased at his navel, prompting Diluc to quickly bite at his cheek, forcing his mouth closed. These little reactions seemed to enrapture Childe and Diluc disliked the way his eyes twinkled more with each passing moment.

"Ticklish?" Childe giggled to himself, as if he already knew the answer. His fingers continued to drum at the sides of Diluc's navel, keeping the other on edge.

"Sh-Shut it," he managed to breathe, the corners of his mouth slowly upturning the longer Childe went on. His wrists strained under Childe's hold and a small whimper slipped past his lips as he waited in anticipation for the other to finally strike, feeling each motion become more pronounced. When he could no longer take it anymore, Diluc shut his eyes, bracing for the worst.

It never came, though.. at least, how he expected it would.

"HahHMMPH!!" An unsightly sound, one that Diluc would normally be embarrassed about, but it was a product of his best efforts to contain himself. The tummy teases simply acted as a diversion for Childe's true intentions, throwing Diluc off by targeting one of the vulnerable hips instead. Had his eyes stayed open, maybe he would've been able to better prepare himself for the surprise attack, but through gritting his teeth, he was able to at least stifle the flow of giggles, though, the way his hips swayed and jittered to Childe's insistent prodding seemed to amuse the other.

"Almost got you." The sing-songiness to his voice certainly didn't help with the current situation and certainly added to Diluc's struggles, much to his chagrin. His face continuously puffed with air with each jab and prod to the sensitive hips, a cycle that lacked any sort of end. 

"How long do you think till you'll break?"

He refused to answer that, partially to deny Childe the satisfaction of a strangled answer, partially because if Diluc so dared open his mouth now, there was a good chance he'd just combust into laughter. The only option, of course, was to shamefully turn his face into his arm, hoping that he could hold off till Childe started to grow bored, though that would require a miracle with how determined the harbinger could be.

The sudden release of his wrists subverted that notion, however, and for a brief moment, Diluc thought that finally Childe had decided to call it quits, only for his expectations to be flipped over once more and that extra hand to make its way over to the unoccupied hip, tag teaming alongside the other hand that had been teasing Diluc this whole time. The two hands at his hips were enough for the older man to sit up, bellowing out a shriek as he tried to stop the onslaught that Childe brought down on him, feeling every ounce of tickling from each squeeze and poke.

"There we go," Childe exclaimed smugly, fighting back Diluc's attempts to push him away, hands focusing on those hips. With each pinch came new bouts of ceaseless laughter that rang throughout the room.

"OKAY- OKAHAHAHAY! I-I'M TICKLIHIHISH!"

"Hmmm, I'm not sure I'm convinced yet," Childe teased, his voice laced with mischief. "I think we're gonna have to- oh!"

Diluc breathed faintly, heavy with each exhale, but with his wrists freed, it was no trouble at all grabbing both of the offending hands, holding them captive in front of him. He shot daggers at the other, to which Childe responded with a cheeky smile.

"Soooo, someone's ticklish," Childe said with a head tilt, as if he didn't just put Diluc through a brief moment of hell. 

"Yes, I am," Diluc responded flatly, loathing the triumphant look that Childe proudly displayed. "Now, I wonder if you might be the same." It was now Diluc's turn to smirk, watching as he wiped the smugness from Childe's face, the quick shift to a pitiful pout unmoving to him. "Surely, a harbinger wouldn't be a ticklish like me, right?"

"I- well, I-I don't know- W-Wahahait, Diluhuhuc! Nohoho! NohohHOHOHO!"

Thoughts on possible genshin oc?

how would you guys feel if i made a genshin oc that was khaenria'hn, abandoned, and also adopted by crepus and grew up with diluc and kaeya(debating whether or not related by blood) but also left mondstadt after he died and the brothers fought and ended up in snezhnaya somehow(thinking on how) and was found by pierro and taken in by him and perchance became the 11th harbinger in time with tartaglia(and perchance i might make them date cus im self indulgent with ocs) cus i just think that the sibling angst would be so good. oh and oc could be close with tartaglia cus she often babysits his siblings(again might make them date, but could be platonic too) and shes like "i used to be like this with my brothers too but they probably hate me now cus im fatui and a harbinger" but then they all love each other they all just think the other party hates them

can you guys tell ive been thinking of this lately?

baseline for her is: hydro, tall female model, polearm, and sub-dps or dps in gameplay and in story

[theinkedfoxsl]

Choose violence all of them. All of the violence.

omg why

the character everyone gets wrong

not oc: tartaglia. oc: ezel

a compelling argument for why your fave would never top or bottom

i don't have a compelling argument, all my favs are switches.

screenshot or description of the worst take you've seen on tumblr

I've seen a lot of bad takes on tumblr, I've been here over a decade lmao. But honestly? Most "writing tips" are absolute garbage and constantly contradict themselves and each other.

what was the last straw that made you finally block that annoying person?

I don't hesitate :) there are no last straws, if i do not like you, goodbye. this has gotten me into shit in bigger communities where people talk to each other but i do not care.

worst discord server and why

my old one<333

which ship fans are the most annoying?

mercy x moira fans and also any tart shipper.

what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?

Diluc. I was pretty mid on him but after following uhhh certain people who were super annoying about him and awful with his characterization i hate him now.

common fandom opinion that everyone is wrong about

what's a common fandom opinion?

worst part of canon

retcons when a media becomes more popular. happened to genshin, overwatch, dbd, ect. They need to pump out more information and they end up contradicting themselves and making their media boring.

worst part of fanon

idk this might just be my issue personally but i watched a lot of people tell a lot of lies to make themselves look better and its. something. i'm here to enjoy a common media, not get into your little cat fights.

number of fandom-related words you've filtered

35 for JUST tags. And its because my mutuals can't tag consistently, yall ANNOYING as hell for that btw. its come to the point where i have to fucking post filter instead of tag filter. i hate yall.

the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them

(holding corvus) i just think hes pathetic.

worst blorboficiation

diluc or tartaglia, also lion(r6)

that one thing you see in fics all the time

I don't read fics anymore unless its my mutuals. Nothing interests me enough. That being said, lot of fuckboy shit in the old genshin days. he would not do that.

that one thing you see in fanart all the time

a lot of people can't seem the grasp the wide range of asian skintones, let alone shade them correctly.

you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

cheating hcs, or thinking kaeya specifically would be a cheater. are you stupid or??

there should be more of this type of fic/art

genuine love for what you're writing rather than what'll get clicks. I can see how soulless some things are.

it's absolutely criminal that the fandom has been sleeping on...

the paladins fandom in general is very much asleep, wake up bro

you're mad/ashamed/horrified you actually kind of like...

Mutual obsession is my weirdest thing I g, it can be done well.

part of canon you found tedious or boring

As I mentioned before, once things start to get retconned and changed, it becomes tedious afterwards. You can see they're stitching together the pieces they think will do well, with no regard to the actual story.

part of canon you think is overhyped

Eh

your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores

Kaeya's favourite flower is a medicinal one.

ship you've unwillingly come around to

corvus/caspian, meg/trapper.

topic that brings up the most rancid discourse

i don't know i don't pay attention lol

common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing

Graphics updates for dbd.

[inardescere]

Diluc, if you could erase Kaeya’s desire to be with Childe, or even know who he is, would you do it?

"Yes."

Did a certain someone expect him to ponder, to hold his head and struggle with an answer? To think about his dear brother in love, who looked so happy in his moment of bliss whenever they flirted in front of his eyes in the tavern, the way Diluc would catch a long-unseen smile whenever he was reading a letter from the man or the way they seemed to gravitate towards each other the same way all lovers did in the city of freedom? The moment he realized what the question was, there was no doubt in him that his lips would only move to form one and only that one word. Yes.

Why would he ever say anything else? The directions were clear-- Kaeya would forget his desire for the man and forget he ever existed. If that were the case, then there would be no sadness, simply an easy snip for them to go back to their normal lives, memories wiped clean for a fresh start. Isn't it so simple when one could play God?

If Kaeya has fallen in love with someone once, what is to say it wouldn't happen again? Hopefully, the next would be with someone who wasn't involved with the organization that had been involved in the murder of his father, the same group which tried to take control of his beloved city with petty discussions and arguments. The organization caused distress to not only their own land but planning behind the curtains to bring chaos to the whole of Teyvat- even without solid proof, this fact was undeniable based on their movements. The things Diluc wouldn't do to protect those of Mondstadt are few and it's a long-established fact that Kaeya was one of them-- a beloved child touched by the wind of freedom, whether he wanted to accept it or not.

He's used to denial. He's already made himself the hated.

Maybe it would be against Kaeya's wishes. But Diluc is ready to be called cruel if it meant that the lives of people around him were peaceful. If erasing one love could protect him from heartache on the chance Tartaglia decides to betray Kaeya for the God he so reveres, so be it. If it could save him from the possible future of being used, he would take it. Possessive and protective; those were two extreme traits he simply never learned to get rid of, and doesn't ever plan to. Isn't it funny, how those who stand above others do simply because they're a little unhinged.

But these are all stupid theories.

There is no way for him to erase memories nor does he plan to involve himself further in Kaeya's adventurous flings. He's better off wishing the Gods throw a meteorite at the harbinger first than believing he would suddenly gain godly powers.

Masterlist

"That's not right either…"

With a dejected look, you threw the garment you were holding onto the floor, among so many others you had tried on before. A heavy sigh escaped you as you looked sadly at your scantily clad reflection in the stand-up mirror that your sweet Diluc had bought for you. You thought you were ugly and fat… How could Diluc love you or even want you with such an unattractive body?

Your hands went to your hips, feeling the flesh there… You had always had "love handles," making your figure unattractive to you. But that wasn't all. Your eyes fell on your thighs, which you found too thick and not sensual enough.

Tears stung your eyes as your thoughts turned to all those beautiful women who were circling your lover. They were all so beautiful, so why had Diluc chosen you? The image of Jean came to mind. She was such a beautiful, attractive woman, and with her intelligence, she and Diluc would have been the most beautiful couple in all of Mondstadt.

Plunged in your thoughts, you hadn't noticed that the man you loved had returned to your common room, a worried expression on his face.

"Y/n? Is something wrong? I was expecting you for breakfast, but…" - His surprised eyes landed on the pile of clothes thrown carelessly on the floor. He analyzed the scene carefully before casting his gaze on you. His head lowered, your arms came to cover your chest, which was dressed in a simple bra. Diluc cautiously approached you, removing the gloves that covered his hands before placing them delicately on your hips.

"What's wrong, honey?" - He whispered. You could feel his breath on your shoulder as he gently kissed your skin. Your eyes sought his through the mirror and when they met, his arms wrapped around your waist, pulling you closer to him as his chin rested comfortably in the hollow of your shoulder.

"Diluc… What do you like about me? Because frankly… Look at me, I look like a slime- Diluc couldn't help but smile at the comparison and he had to hide it as he tenderly kissed your neck.

"You are beautiful. Whatever you may think of yourself, in my eyes, you are the most magnificent woman I have ever seen." - Slightly relaxed by his words, your muscles relaxed against him and your hands abandoned your chest to rest on his.

"But… There are so many beautiful women around you… Next to her, I am…"

"Don't compare yourself to others. You are unique and I love your body. You have beautiful curves and I can never stop touching them." - His hands gently caressed your hips in demonstration. - "I know it's complicated to love yourself… But believe me, in my eyes, there is only you." - Diluc's tender and sincere words managed to wring a shy smile from you as your cheeks took on the same hue as his hair. - "And you are without a doubt the cutest slime in all of Teyvat." - Your smile faded instantly at your lover's unexpected joke. In revenge, you slapped him on the thigh which he couldn't dodge, making him chuckle softly in return.

"You're mean Diluc." - You say with a sulky look. With a smile, he tore you from your contemplation in the mirror to finally kiss your lips.

"Forgive me. But I'd rather see you smile than have that expression disgusted by your own reflection. We each have the body that life has given us my love, and yours is perfect as it is, I don't want you to change." - His warm hands languidly caressed your belly before settling back on your hips, which he clutched languidly. His once teasing gaze was now full of lust. - "I think breakfast can wait a little longer…" - He whispered softly in your ear and nibbled gently before lifting you gently in his arms to lay you on the bed.

Diluc proved the sincerity of his words with his gestures. His hands and lips worshiping every part of your body. Tenderness and love were evident in ƒevery deliberately slow movement he made to express his affection for you. He vowed to remind you every night, every morning, in words or physically, that you were a shining goddess in his eyes…

Sitting in front of your dressing table, you were staring blankly at your face, lipstick in hand. You had bought a whole assortment of makeup, hoping to look like all those women who wore makeup so well and showed off a perfect face. You wanted to please your lover, to make him proud, he was such a handsome and elegant man, attracting all eyes on him. Next to him, you felt like the ugly duckling… No matter how hard you tried, it didn't work and you felt even uglier than usual…

Zhongli was coming back from work when he saw your delicate body in front of the mirror of your dressing table. He noticed the indecent amount of makeup product scattered in front of you. Then as he looked up at your reflection, he noticed the makeup you had started to put on yourself. He quickly understood from the expression on your face that something was wrong and when you looked up at him through the mirror, you immediately started to move to get away from him. Alerted, Zhongli rushed towards you, gently grabbing your wrist before turning to face him.

"Please don't look at me… I'm ugly…" - Zhongli frowned sadly at the harshness of your words. How could you think for a moment that you were ugly? His amber eyes turned back to the pile of cosmetics before returning to you. He noticed the lipstick in your hand and decided to carefully remove it from you and place it back on the wooden surface of the dressing table.

"Sit down my dear, let me show you something." - The softness in his voice made you obey him obediently. Zhongli curved towards you, taking your chin between his fingers to gently rock your head from right to left, carefully observing your features. Then he took a wipe in his free hand and began to gently clean your skin. You closed your eyes, your lips trembling, as you let your lover remove the makeup from your face. You felt like crying, disappointed in yourself, unable to make yourself beautiful for him. His fingers eventually replaced the wet fabric of the makeup remover, running thinly along your features - "Honey, open your eyes." - Slowly, your tear-red eyes opened to let you see Zhongli's smiling face. - "Look…" - He said as he gently turned your face towards the mirror, letting you see your reflection purged of all traces of makeup. - "You are beautiful. You don't need all these pretenses to be." - His hand caressed your jaw, gently going to tangle in your hair. He slowly began to comb it back into your hair, a tender smile on his lips as he pulled your hair up into a bun.

"Zhongli…" - Your eyes blurred, your tears threatening to fall.

"I'm sorry Y/n." - Your eyes widened, searching his gaze for an explanation for his forgiveness.

"Zhongli, why do you…"

"I'm probably the one making you feel so bad. I'm sorry. Maybe I said something hurtful or maybe I'm not expressing my love for you enough…" - Zhongli's calm eyes remained focused on your hair, which was gradually taking the form of a beautiful bun. - "Your beauty is natural my love." - He said as he placed a golden comb in your now perfectly coiffed hair. - "You have always dazzled me. Your eyes, your lips, your lashes. Everything is perfect. Nature has already given you all the beauty it could possibly give, and I feel honored to have been chosen as a mate by such a wonderful woman as you." - Unable to hold them back any longer, you let your tears run down your cheeks.

"Zhongli… you know I-" - Long arms wrapped around your shoulders, while your love's cheek rested against your ear.

"If only you could see yourself as I see you…" - You grabbed his sleeves, squeezing them like a vice between your fingers. You sought to lodge your face in the crook of his neck, and he helped you by shifting the axis of his head. Zhongli was always a loving and sincere man, you trusted him completely, and thanks to him, you were able to love yourself a little more each day.

As a child, you had a serious accident that left a long, deep scar on your back. You didn't like to see it and even less to show it. How many times had you been rejected because of this scar? Kaeya was your boyfriend, you trusted him completely. He was a charming and romantic man. And above all, you loved him like never before… So, in your mind, the idea of talking to him or worse, showing him your scar, caused you a terrible fear. You were sure he would reject you, disgusted by the mark on your back. But of course, Kaeya was a curious and investigative man. He knew that you were hiding something from him. So he didn't mind entering the bathroom, knowing precisely that you were there to take a bath.

"Kaeya?! No! Please go away! Don't look at me!" - You had cowered in on yourself, tears welling up in your eyes as you were praying for him to come out quickly. But he didn't. His silence was soon replaced by the sound of his footsteps. When Kaeya saw it, that dark scar that ran from your shoulder to your pelvis, he couldn't help but put his fingers on it, running along your mark, his lips then taking over. You shuddered, fighting the urge to run away from him, lest you disgust him. Kaeya had always told you that he found you beautiful and perfect. Wasn't he going to change his mind after seeing the monstrosity on your back? Was he going to… reject you?

"Kaeya… I-I don't disgust you?"

"Why would you disgust me princess?" - He said against your skin, his lips continuing to taste you hungrily. "I-I… you always told me you thought I was perfect. I don't want to disappoint you… Please don't hate me." - Kaeya's hands tightened against your hips as he straightened up to whisper in your ear.

"You look beautiful." - One of his hands, surprisingly warm despite his cryo vision, ran along your back, following the line that your scar ran. - "You, that scar…" - He kissed your shoulder, moving gradually up your neck to your jaw. - "I love all these facets of you." - His arms wrapped around your shoulders as his head slumped against your neck. - "I would never hate you for that. You and I are the same. We both have wounds that are branded with a red-hot iron." - You looked at his face, focusing your gaze on where his eye patch was. - "I don't want you to be ashamed of yourself. You are irresistible. I love you and desire you with such force it's painful." - You felt your throat tighten as your tears began to roll down your cheeks.

"Prove it to me!" - You shout to him in a choked sob. Kaeya smiles against you, his hands becoming more exploratory.

"So be it. Let's put this bath to good use…" - He kissed the birth of your scar one last time before lifting you off the ground and showing you the proof of his love for you.

Since you were born, you had what people called: pearly eyes. One was hazel and the other was a bewitching emerald green. Unfortunately for you, many people around you criticized you for your difference, thinking that your eyes were strange, abnormal. The children were even crueler than the adults, harassing you and calling you a monster every chance they got… All these misadventures had left a deep scar on you. So you ended up wearing colored contact lenses (your choice), not being able to stand your light brown eyes anymore…

Xiao had been gone for several hours to do his homework for Liyue. You had taken the habit of waiting for him, sitting in your armchair, reading one of the books of your collection. Liyue's legends and tales were your favorite subjects to read, especially those that referred to your lovely yaksha. Absorbed in your reading, you didn't notice that you were starting to rub your eyes nervously, bothered by a sudden dryness. Feeling the pain gradually settle in, you finally abandoned your book to remove your contact lenses and look for the reason of your discomfort.

You hadn't noticed that Xiao had returned from his demon hunt much earlier. His astonished gaze was fixed on you, specifically your eyes. Then, he finally noticed the lenses in your hands.

"Y/n? I didn't know you wore contacts." - He said softly as he approached you. But he stopped all his movements when he saw your reaction. Fear, anxiety and panic could be seen on your face as you flinched as he approached you.

"Xiao! I wasn't expecting you so soon! W-Wait just a moment please…" - You hurriedly put your lenses back on, but your trembling hands prevented you from doing so. Xiao, aware of your distress, took your hands in his, caressing your palms with his thumbs. Your panic gradually faded as you cautiously raised your eyes to him.

"What are you afraid of Y/n?" - His soft voice soothed your heart.

"It's… my eyes. They're monstrous." - You say, a little ashamed to admit it to him.

"Monstrous?" - Xiao sighed before crouching down in front of you, your hands now wrapped in his. - "I guess if you think like that, it's because someone implanted that idea in your head. Mortals really are idiots. Your eyes are beautiful Y/n." - You could feel your cheeks blushing at his adamant tone. Xiao had always been honest and sincere with you, sometimes taking the risk of hurting you with his words.

"Usually the others me-" - The stern look he gave you immediately cut you off.

"I don't follow the others. So please don't compare me to these insignificant mortals." - A bright red settled on his cheeks as his voice grew softer and softer with each word he spoke. His fingers came to brush your cheek as his forehead rested against yours. - I love you Y/n. Don't hide your eyes anymore. I want to see you as you are, beautiful and full of life." Your legs trembled under your weight. Xiao could sometimes be so tender and reassuring that it made you feel like you were melting to the ground. In the face of your silence, Xiao wrapped his arms around your waist. His presence felt so good… His warm embrace helped you relax.

"The lenses… I wouldn't put them in again." - A loving smile lit up the adept's features.

"Good."

For a long time you remained in each other's arms, enjoying each other's presence…

How they kiss you for the first time

This is the first time I’m writing for the genshin boys please don’t mind if they appear ooc, I haven't played the game that long yet

Characters: Diluc, Itto, Kaeya, Tartaglia, Zhongli x reader (separate) Pronouns/gender of reader: no gender mentioned  Word count: 730

Part 1 - Part 2

Diluc: Diluc is a fairly stoic and composed man most of the time, but I’d like to believe that the first kiss you have with him would be very passionate. The two of you would have had a thing for a while but neither of you had been brave enough to confess so you just skirted around the topic. That was until one day you kept teasing him about something especially flustering and he could feel his face heat up. This was it for Diluc, he couldn’t hold back anymore; “fuck it” he mumbled to himself and grabbed your chin with one hand and holding your lower back with the other, bringing you closer to him before forcefully (but respectfully!) finally smashing his lips against yours, and you both sighed into the kiss, finally getting the pleasure you both had wished for for weeks. 

Itto: This guy is wild and full of energy so your first kiss would probably be like that as well. I imagine it would also come as a surprise to both of you. Maybe he just won a hard Onikabuto beetle battle and you had been there to support him, so when he finally wins the both of you jump into a hug before he just casually pulls you in and gives you a big kiss smack on the lips.  The both of you pull away looking at each other surprised about what had just happened before, clearly flustered but both also having enjoyed what had just happened. Itto being the lovely dumb himbo that the is would probably just ask if “you wanted to do that again?” while breaking into a giant smile, and how could you say no to the one and oni when he was looking at you like that?

Keaya: Your first kiss with Kaeya is fairly sensual. Despite being a massive flirt most of the time he wants to do this right with you, so you best believe that this guy will take his time. He would have flirted with you for a while before making any moves, and he would probably find the perfect moment to kiss you. Imagine it’s night time and you are looking out over Mondstadt with him, just looking at the stars together while talking and having fun. At some point you laugh at something he said and then just give him a big smile and it’s like something just clicked in his head and he can’t hold back anymore. You look at each other and can both just feel that the moment is right, so you both lean in for a long and passionate kiss, not breaking away from each other for a while. 

Tartaglia: Sweet. That’s all I gotta say. Most of the time this dude is sleek and full of energy but under all those Fatui harbinger layers there’s 100% a sweet and caring guy hiding inside. Maybe you and him had planned to hang out or something like that, but he had to miss it because of some urgent Fatui stuff. When he finally comes back in the evening he’s super sorry and in general is in a sad mood because he thinks that you’re gonna hate him and that you’re gonna realise that he will never be enough for you. After assuring him that you still like him and that you will always care about him he finally gives you the kiss that you’ve been longing for. It’s sweet and full of reassurance that no matter what happens, the two of you will always have each other.

Zhongli: I believe your very first kiss with him would be fairly short and cute. He would probably take you out on a date first (and actually remember to bring his mora wow) because he wanted to do things properly. I canon him to be a romantic at heart that would do all the classic romantic stuff when he was trying to court you. Zhongli is a very respectful and composed man, so he would probably ask you if he could kiss you first before doing anything. After you’ve confirmed that he’s allowed to, he would probably grab your chin with one of his hands and bring your face closer to his before meeting your lips in a short and sweet kiss. Then the two of you would pull away, look at each other and smile, and then go back in for a more sensual and longer kiss.

❝Unholy Rose❞ -Scaramouche Kunikuzushi

Warning ———-oExhibitionism, Drinking, I just realized I made a cruel prince quote??, Diluc being hottie as always, not edited, maybe ooc Scaramouche,

Kinktober MasterList ———-o Kinktober 2021

Pairing ———-o Scaramouche Kunikuzushi X fem!Reader

“What in the raiden shoguns name are you doing?” you thought to yourself as you pushed your hood down lower to keep your face concealed from any by passers. “Oh goodness…how idiotic can I be?” You screamed to yourself, internally. “I can’t go back to Inazuma, they’ll be searching cracks and crevices just to find me there…” you felt yourself on the verge of tears as you realized you would have to go to the one place you cannot stand. The land of eternity wasn’t your home land but you did have a home there and the harbingers knew that.

Mondstadt.

You truly didn’t know why you hated Mondstadt, maybe it was because of the fact their dearly beloved archon destroyed your hometown with only you surviving but other then that you didn’t know why.

You walked for days until you could not walk anymore until you finally had made it in the gates. You ran up to the first shop with food you could find. “Good hunters…” you mumbled out of your mouth before asking her what was the best thing you could buy. “I recommend the cream stew! It’s amazing, you’ll most definitely fall in love” she smiled towards you as you told her you’d buy it.

You walked to the souvenir shop, “ma’am…do you have any clothes I can buy” you asked to the lady in front of the shop. “Yes we actually have a variety of clothing in stock right now for the cheap price of one hundred thousand each” she pointed to the back of the store. Walking over you picked things that you would’ve never wore when you were a harbinger. You saw someone else who was staring out you intensely, making you quickly grab the clothing and bring them up to the cashier and slamming money onto the table before running out.

“Dear Raiden. Please tell me I didn’t get caught just yet. I’m stealthy I know I am so who was that person?” you went to good hunters and grabbing the food from Sara and paying her the estimated amount. You began to walk off but stopped remembering you needed to ask something, “do you know were I can get a room for a few days?” You asked her as she payed attention to every word you said.

“Yes actually if you go over to the right and then take a left you can find a place” she pointed all around, showing random hand signals. “Thank you” you left an extra one hundred thousand by her hand and walked off. You were quite wealthy as a fatui harbinger so money wasn’t an issue for now.

Your mind wandered off to how the harbingers are doing, “I do hope Tartaglia is eating well. I remember having to force feed him when he was too caught up in work…and Dottore is probably to into destroying and rebuilding his little robots. Ah…and Scaramouche. Your dear Scaramouche. Oh how you missed him, you do hope he doesn’t hate you for what you did.”

It truly wasn’t your fault. You just got bored and decided to stir up your and the harbingers life. So you thought trying to assassinate the Tsaritsa was give you a bit excitement. So as you changed into your clothes in your room and quickly but sophisticatedly ate.

“This truly is quite boring…I hope one of them will come chasing after me” if this is what was going to happen, you would’ve left your boring life alone. You do get bored easily, but Scaramouche was the only thing that excited you now, so you hoped to celestia that he would be the one to catch you.

You didn’t believe in the archons will powers but for some reason…you absolutely adored the electro archon. Maybe it was because of how sophisticated she was but you were enamored with her.

With all these thoughts huddling up inside of your tiny head, you grabbed your hood and went out for a breather. You walked around all of the walls of Mondstadt until you found yourself in a bar. You sat down on a barstool, looking around nonchalantly. You looked at the red-headed bartender, going to ask for a drink, noticing his glare towards everyone and how cold he was he reminded you of a certain someone.

“Can I get…dandelion wine” you asked with a smile towards him. He got a glass cup and poured a bit of it inside, “oh actually the whole bottle, if you can” you butted, putting money into the bar. He looked at you for a second before giving you the wine cup and the bottle.

As you drank to your hearts content, you realized it was getting late so you left. You walked limply to the hotel you were currently staying at before getting pulled by your arm harshly, making you let out a gasp.

“…excuse me?” You said to the person who grabbed you. “Who do you think you are? I’m a fatui harbin-oh” you realized by his short build that it was Scaramouche. He glared at you electro in is palm. “If you’re here to kill me, I don’t have time for it” you tried to walk off but he electrocuted you, making you cry out with a smile of your face. He pulled you down to your knees, making you wince once you felt the hard rocks on your knees “how moronic do you have to be to challenge the Tsaritsa and then leave. Goodness I should just kill you right now” You smirked, the wine in you controlling your will, “oh? And why won’t you kill me now? Is it because you’re infatuated with m-“

He grabbed your chin, making you smile at him, rubbing your face against his clothing. “Please as if I could ever love a worthless human being like yourself…” you scoffed at his words. How dare he call you a human? You’ve been alive for over 500 years. “Ah- but that’s where you’re wrong Kunikuzushi…I’ve been alive longer then you” your hands went to coddle his clothing, before slowly taking them off.

He let you take them off, looking away from your smirking face. “You do know…I am surprised you found me so quickly. I would’ve thought that you would look for me in Inazuma…” you kissed his clothed erected cock as if he was visibly disgusted by you. He doesn’t want this. He doesn’t want to want this. “Please, you babbled to me how much you hated Mondstadt, and knowing how cunning you are you would’ve came here” As you pulled out his already erected cock, he quickly pushed your face onto it, “oh? Someone excited?” You stuck your tongue out to lick the white substance on his tip.

You hallowed out your cheeks, taking him in and the other parts you massaged with your hand. “…I’ll turn you into her majesty once thi-this is done” His hand went to the back of your head, pushing you down harshly making you gag. You were just glad he had stuttered. You, a Khaenri’ah princess, making Kunikuzushi stutter from just your lips. You didn’t fear her majesty.

You knew she pitied you and that’s why she made you a harbinger. You knew she was part of the destruction of your homeland but she let you take the Gnosis of the archons, letting you revel in your revenge. “F-fuck…” he whispered before his cum shot down your throat. Once you were sure you got every last drop, you pulled away from his dick.

“If you’re going to turn me in, please let me have a bit of fun before being killed” you winked towards his blushing figure. He pulled you up by one of your arms. He pulled your short dress skirt up slight And moved your panties to the side. “I’ll make you my wife. If you’re my betrothed her majesty wouldn’t kill you for what you did” he didn’t give you a chance to speak because he quickly put himself inside of your already wet cunt.

“Ah-celestia~…” what he said went over your head as he slammed himself inside of you. "Better than I imagine." He muttered, pumping inside of you. “S-scara~ faste-please” you moaned out and thankfully he actually listened to you. Your hands gripped his shoulders harshly, your nails digging inside of his skin.

“Who knew I would have the Khaenri’ah princess moaning all over my cock~” he teased you as you rolled your eyes, “shut up” you pressed your lips to his, harshly. You bit his lip, making it bleed. Your tongue slipped inside of his mouth, You moaned as he kept on slipping inside of you.

Breathing harshly, you pulled apart. You prayed to the Raiden Shogun that no one would see you being fucked out of your brains. Your head was pressed into the wall behind you to keep your balance.

You finally came as his cock painted your insides white. He pulled out as you limply fell down before he grabbed onto your arm. “Come here moron” he walked towards your hotel. “Wait…how do you know where I sleep at?” You mumbled into his shoulder. He scoffed at the drool running down your mouth.

“Please, I knew from the very beginning you were here. I know you better then you think” he pulled open the door and pushed you inside of your room. “Sleep. I’ll wake you up early” he pulled the sheets up on your body, making you more comfortable. The last thing you felt before succumbing to the sleep was a kiss to your eyelid

noticing that you fell asleep while waiting for him to finish, albedo removes his jacket and drapes it over your sleeping figure. smiling gently, he placed a kiss on top of your head as he continued to work while looking over your figure every once in a while with a soft smile visible every time. glaring at anyone who dares to make a noise to not disturb your state, even going as far as to throw an object on kaeya’s head when he suddenly barged into the room.

bennett carefully places a bandaid over your wound after disinfecting it with the alcohol he brought for emergency while adventuring. after placing the bandaid, he gave you a smile and exclaimed that he’s done patching you up. his eyes travelled back to your now-covered wound on top of your hand, leaning down and gingerly pressing a soft kiss on top, hoping for the pain to go away.

noticing how you nervously played with your hands, chongyun quickly stepped in and excused you from the stranger that was making you uncomfortable. holding your hand gently as he guided you to the outskirts of liyue harbor to calm you, he turned to you and placed his other hand on your cheek while staring at you. quickly asking “are you okay?” “were you hurt?” and so on. only letting go of your cheek when he deems that you were unharmed, but he doesn’t let go of your hand. 

pulling your sleeping figure close to him, dainsleif took a deep breath to calm himself, inhaling your comforting scent to calm his beating heart. he woke up from a nightmare again, trying to calm his shaking nerves he continues to hold you, pulling you even closer to make sure that his nightmare isn’t real. you were here with him, sleeping contentedly beside him, innocent from all the suffering he dealt with. he closes his eyes but doesn’t fall asleep, having you in his arms is enough. 

wrapping his arm around your waist to pull you closer, diluc smiled softly at your surprised face at the sudden action. gazing in your eyes intently with adoration, his eyes briefly look down at your lips before locking eyes with you once more. lifting his hand up to softly rub your lips before leaning and locking lips with yours, pulling you even closer and cupping your cheek with his other hand.

arriving at the dead of night. kaeya quietly closes the door to not disturb the inhabitants of the dark house. he just finished the paperwork left for him from the acting grandmaster, and he was tired as hell. wanting to be in bed, cuddled with his lover, his eyes noticed someone on the couch. curious, he carefully navigates his way there, his hand twitching to ready his blade when his eyes land on the sleeping figure of his lover. sighing in relief, he softly chuckles at your action, you must’ve waited for him the entire night. he quickly picks you up and goes to the bedroom to properly snuggle with you. 

taking a deep breath, kazuha goes down on one knee and looks up at you expectantly with a nervous yet excited smile on his face. from behind his back, he shows you a ring made out of the pearl you and him found one day at the beach. it was beautifully carved in a silver band, simple and straight-to-the-point, just like him. “would you do the honor of being my spouse?” he silently hopes you say yes. he might not have much to offer, having a wanted print all over his identity, but he hopes he can build a future where you two can live peacefully.

chasing after you with high speed, razor expertly runs through the wolvendom forest to chase you down. hearing your laughter ringing through the dense forest, his heart couldn’t help but pound at the sound, making him smile as well. after a while of trying to catch you, he finally tackled you to the ground, making sure his hand is under your head to not cause a concussion. landing on a rather soft grass patch, you continued to giggle as you stare at your boyfriend from below. he couldn’t help but nuzzle his face in your neck, smiling while inhaling your sweet scent despite how sweaty you two are. 

scaramouche groaned when he felt you shifting from his sleep, quickly wrapping his arms around you before you could get out of the shared bed. he opened his eyes a bit to peek at you before snuggling his face at the back of your neck. mumbling out “stay” in a sleepy voice as he cuddles you from behind. wanting to sleep more with you until you two are needed, he lets out a rare soft smile as he drifts off to sleep once more.

tartaglia smirking as he appeared beside you, making you jump a bit, and said a pick-up line, “are you a parking ticket? because you’ve got fine written all over you.” watching your face twisted to either a flustered or annoyed look made him laugh, always amused at your reaction either way. he made it his personal mission to pester you with pick-up lines until you accepted his proposal of a date. 

venti teaching you some german words to better fit in the city, laughing whenever you mess up your pronunciation or words. patiently teaching you the common conversation sentences, he would clap whenever you correctly pronounce the statement or word. deciding to be a little sly, he taught you “ich liebe dich” but didn’t say what it meant. when you manage to say it correctly, you notice that he has a faint pink dust on his cheeks as he smiles brightly at you. “ich liebe dich auch” he mumbles.

coming home after being done with your work, you noticed that your child’s room is lit from the hallway, the door wide open. taking a peek inside, your heart swells in delight at the sight. xiao was sleeping peacefully with your son on top of his chest, the book forgotten by his side as the two slept. chuckling at how identical your son and your husband is, you quietly step inside the room and put a blanket over the two. the yaksha, his guard forever up, opened his eyes groggily and when it landed on you, he smiled peacefully and mumbles out “welcome home”.

xingqiu kissing the scars scattered through your body, telling you how much he loves it every time he kisses each one. every flaw you despised on your body, every scar you hated seeing, every mark, he loves it all. his heart broke when he encountered you looking at your body through the glass with sadness. you're perfect, so perfect for him. placing a kiss on your lips as the finale,he smiles gently at you while rubbing his thumbs over your cheeks and leaning his forehead against yours. no matter what you look like, he’ll love you in every shape and form.

ALBEDO - Yellow by Kina Grannis

Feelings beyond the capacity of words, being succumbed and accompanied by the chirps of the crickets and the silent but gentle sound of the cold night breeze that passes by both of your forms with every chance it gets—as if the Anemo Archon himself was in approval of this. This moment feels reminiscent somehow; him sketching onto paper, your moonlit beauty radiating from where you were sitting on the grass, a curve of a smile playing by your lips as you stare up at the starry sky. If he was asked, he thinks the stars were smiling back at you.

“We should bring Klee here sometime. Although we’d have to be strong in case she pleads to go fish blasting again. I’d hate to burden Jean once she finds out about it,” there you went, thinking about other people. He thinks you worry about them too much, more than your own. Yet he keeps the words inside of him, knowing full well that it was one of the things he liked about you anyway; your love for others.

If he could wish for the stars, he’d say that he hopes that the shine in your eyes will never die—that genuine love and care to shine for other people.

And if it does, he will not hesitate to put it back on for you.

CHILDE - Crazy by Daniela Andrade

You very well knew what being close to a Fatui Harbinger would mean.

You not only have heard whispers, mutters, or talks about them—you were lectured by your very own parents not to even associate yourself with them.

It’s crazy ironic how now, those warnings were not heeded and were tackled very differently than it should have been. Consequences—such a word that most people had already told you about the moment they learned about your connection with him.

To hell with it.

Everything has their consequences, and if you had heeded the others’ words before, then you will also lose this life--the life that was almost robbed off of you just because of these stereotypes of a Fatui Harbinger.

You held your guards up when you first met him, you tried. But his charm was indeed something not to be reckon with, now you could barely imagine a life without him anymore. This must be what it is, right? This must be how it is to love and be loved.

You were suddenly aware of the softness of the locks in between your fingers, your eyes then glancing down as a smile forms on your face when you gazed upon your lover—your Childe; your Tartaglia; your Ajax. A man who had drenched not only his clothes and his hands but his whole mind with violence, a man who had sworn loyalty to a god who you do not worship—nonetheless respected.

It’s crazy how you love him.

But it’s also crazy how he loves you back and was willing to defy all odds just to have you by his side as well.

DILUC - Once Upon a December by Christy Altomare

It was almost like a fairytale. For him, meeting you was like a fairytale carved right out of a children’s book that his father used to read him with when he was way younger, when he still hadn’t got the sense of justice he had as he grew older. You were his savior, even if you were not truly aware of it.

“What are you thinking about, Luc?” he hears you say, in an instant, his eyes were on yours. He could feel it again—being bare in front of someone and letting it be like that, for them to see your soul and your entire being, trusting them with your whole heart.

He leans in to the side after a couple of moments, still swaying with you on beat with the background music that seemed to have continuously played despite the time that had passed by, his nose catching the fresh and natural scent of your skin. How many minutes had it been since you two were standing in the middle of the bedroom you shared since the day you two had gotten married? Basking in each other’s presence under the blessing of the evening.

“Would it bother you if I say that I’ve been thinking about you?” he says—almost like a whisper, actually. He very well knew you could hear him, but for him, this was like a secret, one that he wishes to keep with you and you alone.

One of your hands then curls to his waist, leaning yourself closer until you are hugging him whilst still swaying and taking hold of one of his hands. Also leaning to his shoulder and ear, he could only smile as you replied, “How could I when you’re also in miy mind most of the time?”

GOROU - Meet me on the Battlefield by SVRCINA

The world was unfair, Everyone knew that--both you and him were very aware of it as well.

Fighting an army by a god was never deemed as easy. With the limited resources and fighters, it was not a surprise that someone like you had joined them in the battlefield as well.

He was against this at first, but seeing your battle prowess, the Divine Priestess herself could not fulfill the General’s request to not let his lover partake in the fights. Sooner, he came to accept this and respected you and Her Highness’ decision.

The world was unfair, but he would not go down without a fight.

You suddenly feel his fingers slip to yours, feeling the familiar comforting warmth that had always been there since the start, his resolve that had never wavered and was infectious enough for you and of course, the other people around him. This is not just both of you fighting for your lives, this is a fight for Inazuma and its people. Even if your name as the Resistance was tainted amongst those who don't know why all of you were fighting, the echoes of your hearts will remain the same.

“Meet you later?” he turns to you like when he usually does, a small and assuring smile on his face, one that you could confess that you always look forward to. In every start of a battle for your lives, you two became accustomed to greeting each other this way--for you both to survive like you always do, probably; an assurance that everything can stay the same after a battle of fortitude against the Shogunate.

Mirroring his smile, you nodded, “Always,”

In the land of Eternity where silver clangs to silver, iron smashes to iron; this is an eternity that you both had always hoped for.

To be safe--it’s a prayer that your minds and hearts chant along the intake of your breaths. It’s a prayer that you both wished towards a god that is willing to listen.

KAEYA - Who Am I by RIELL (Acoustic)

(has implications of god!reader)

Threads of fate, strings of love, needles of the past—with unblind eyes, he knew what he was looking for.

When his eyes clashed with yours, when his hands met yours, when your voice penetrated his mind; he knew—knew what he was getting himself into, knew what falling under the spell of your kiss entails to someone like him.

He knew, and yet he couldn’t stop himself from having a taste.

The grip of his blood runs through his very veins, through the same eyes that you stare at with your Divine ones, through the hands that you still hold with your own tainted ones—tainted from the blood of his kind.

In this game of love, shall he prevail in the name of his family or for the sake of you—the god he accidentally fell in love with?

Who is he really?

Who was he supposed to be?

These questions ran dry from the answers it was neglected of as he grasped onto the handle of a door, turning them open to be blinded by the light.

“Kaeya, honey, you’re here?” your voice rings in his mind, infiltrating his plans and making him question his own identity.

You came, dressed in casual clothes that no one could even guess you were a god living amongst men—he didn’t, wasn’t able to until you revealed it to him as his lover.

He forgets everything and lets go of the rope towards the end goal as he leans in and presses a kiss on your lips and whispering the words “I’m home,”

KAZUHA - I won’t give up by Jason Mraz

A peaceful and windy evening, the unsettled sound of the leaves on tree branches and the grasses n the ground, the darkness of the sky illuminated by merely the moon alone.

A storm is brewing.

“Kazu, do you really have to?” you already knew that something was bothering him. That despite this supposedly jovial night date around the harbor, there seemingly was a voice that he couldn’t release. You didn’t need his hypersensitive sense of smell to read him—you’ve known him quite well enough with the year that was given for the both of you.

But tonight, tonight was different, and you’ve already perceived what the storm inside of his head had been meaning to say to you.

When you looked into his eyes, he wore the same ones from when you met him. And without any answer, you knew what it would be anyway. Before you could even look away, you felt the warmth of his hand on yours, meeting your gaze without a single thought hidden beneath the clouds of the plum of his orbs.

“I’ll come back home, I promise,” he says, because it was true. He already found his home here in Liyue, with you.

His other hand fishes something from his pockets and once he retrieves it, you could only gasp as he slips the silver band on one of your fingers delicately. Now, both of his hands were on yours, cupping them and grasping them with so much care and love that you felt it right through your bones how sure he was with his decision and his feelings for you.

“Meeting you was one of the most unexpected things that had ever happened to me, but unlike the others, you, my dove, brought the light back into my very eyes and gave me strength to face the sun once more. For that, I thank you. I want to come back to you with my heart whole and my spirit rested, so wait for me. And marry me by then.”

SCARAMOUCHE - Saints by Echos

At first, he was merely amused by you.

How could a thief steal from the Fatui—a Harbinger no less? It was purely entertainment to hear you spit curses at him and to feel the daggers of your glare, yet he was too amused, it seems.

“Be one of us, Y/n. Your skills will be wasted by the likes of your kind,” he said, holding out a hand—at that very moment, you knew that you were making a deal with the devil.

You took his hand and his path of life, became a part of it and soon, he was also a part of yours—too much to even see a world without him in it.

“Are you done?” his arms were crossed when he entered your tent, his eyes scanning over the Treasure Hoarders that you seem to have caught once again—seemingly in the same state as others before them. His eyes pierces yours, scanning them, probably to see whether there were remnants of your past self, ones that had vanished the moment you became one of them. “You’re far different than who you were before.”

You snicker to yourself, soon evolving into a laugh as you faced him, one hand on your stomach, finding his statement quite hilarious, “Coming from you,” you respond when you were able to, eyes glowering under the dim light, “you’re not so innocent either, dearest.”

He smirks, but there was hesitation in his eyes and a pressure in his chest that he could not seem to fathom—or particularly care about.

When he met you, without meaning to, you stole his heart too. And now, he didn’t know if offering you to be part of the Fatui was his best or worst decision of all.

THOMA - 17 by Pink Sweat$ feat. Joshua & DK of SEVENTEEN

Days with him never lacked energy and motion. Every person he had ever encountered is a testament to how he’s such a helpful kind of guy. Always there when you needed something, always holding out a hand in assurance that he was there—most especially to you.

“I apologize, but we’ll be taking our leave now,” he smiles towards the others and you could only wonder why he pulls you both aside, hand comfortably on your back, making you a bit closer to him as you walked side by side, the warmth of his form radiating from where he was, warming you up from the coldness of the night and the soul inside of your body.

It seemed, he sensed it again.

Wordlessly when you were far away from the crowd, he halted you both and he faced you to open his arms, to which you knowingly went and circled your hands on his waist, pressing your face on his chest. He wraps his own on your form, one hand tapping gently on one of your shoulders, “There, there. That party was stuffy, huh? Do you want to stay here for a while?”

When you nod, he leans his chin on your head, humming in response, “We could stay here for as long as you’d like,”

In the middle of the way towards Mt. Yuogo, there you two stood, only for the both of you to sway into a soundless music, nothing but the hums of nature surrounding the both of you, comforting you even more.

VENTI - Hurricane by Anson Seabra

Such sad eyes, that was your first impression of his viridescent orbs.

A smile that could mask any emotions that may be on that lonely soul of his, jovial music that clouds the sad words that he’s been hiding inside that mind of his—anyone could be deceived by then, honestly.

Not you.

The night you met him, it was as if a gust of wind had your heart pounding and your mind racing. Even without knowing his face or his name or his voice before, you felt that he was familiar.

“Do I know you?” you asked, and when you met his eyes, you were sure that the next words that slips your lips were affirmative despite his own answers.

“From a previous life, perhaps?” was your question, and he answered with a laugh.

“My, my, must you really be that curious about this humble bard? You could have asked for my name, you know!”

A liar, that’s what he was, and you knew it, he knew it.

Who was he to stop himself and bite his tongue of the lies that come out of his lips when he could still remember the way your eyes lost its life in front of him countless of times—all because of him, all because he was a greedy god who loved a human who’ll always meet the same fate as you would always do when you start to feel the same for him.

Fate hates him, but there is nothing he wants more than you.

XIAO - Can you hold me by NF feat. Britt Nicole

Not very many knew of the lone yaksha on the topmost level of Wangshu Inn, as well as the stories that lie beneath the surface that he holds upfrontly.

Cold, dismissive, very few with words; almost anyone would be riddled away especially if he wants to—he does, he needs.

“Desires? Ha. Do not judge Adepti by your mortal ideas. I have no desire.”

He does have one, actually.

His existence is an epiphany to most, but more so with the so-called lover who had tamed his heart—very few knew about you, and he meant to keep it that way.

“Xiao, you’re tense again,” your voice was like an angel, your touch was like feather, the muscles on his back easing up instantly at the contact as he lets you rub them gently and carefully, “relax, I’m sure you’ve vanquished the demons to temper the dangers for the meantime. You need to rest up as well, my love.”

He could never say no to you, not when you were beginning to calm the embers in his mind and the darkness of his soul.

It was not too long when he raises a hand towards yours, holding them gently before turning to face your form. He did not meet your eyes, but his lips met your knuckles; softly, mercifully, he kissed them with emotions that he doesn’t claim to have.

When you sat down in front of him, you were even more surprised to have him meet your eyes before leaning close; breath to breath, nose to nose.

“Can I hold you?” he found his voice even as he stared at the beauty of your orbs. You could only nod, voice restricted on your throat and from the pounding of your heart.

His embrace is rare, so whenever he initiates them, it is like your breath is being stolen away by him again. You didn’t know why he’s acting like this at this very moment; an act of impulse? Or is there an underlying reason? Either way, you were here to snake your own arms on his waist as you relished the love that he was willing to give you—the desires that he not so often speaks of, that he even denies he has.

Because even an Adeptus has desires, most of them just hide it.

ZHONGLI - More than words by Little Mix feat. Kamille

Like gravity, you found yourself being pulled by his presence.

Was it his face? His stature? His voice? Not that it mattered anyway.

“Mr. Zhongli, would you like a refill for your tea?” you inquired, smiling his way as he sent you one with his own politely.

“Yes, please,”

You could only watch him from afar. Being a little bit shier than any other else, you could only stand as you see other people flock his way and try to woo him on their own. He’s a gentleman, the dream of everyone—including you.

“I am grateful for your kindness once again, Y/n,” he says before he turns his back, exiting your teahouse as you watched once again—your eyes following his form until it vanishes out of sight.

With a sigh, you could only hold a heart over your chest. His baritone voice, his piercing yet warm eyes, the way he said your name has your heart pounding and you were worried if he’ll be the cause of a heart attack of yours someday.

“Why don’t you confess already?” those were the words of your friend, Hu Tao, when she catches you staring at him again. An ideal pair, you two were, seeing as he’s the boss of the person of your affections. Although with your circumstances now, it’s very much likely, to say the least, to be friends with her.

“I can’t,” you say, a sad smile forming on your face.

Awareness is a rather scary thing, such as knowledge.

Cursed with the memories of your past, you knew better to stay away from him—Morax, Rex Lapis. Others knew him by many names, but you knew him because he was your husband.

Was.

“You know I can’t, Director Hu,” you looked at her and she soon sighs.

“Are you sure you’re not going to say goodbye? There’s a possibility he could see you even if-“

“We already did…” you cut her off, soul turning back from the man who sat far from both you and Hu Tao; soul turning away from the world you had once lived on, “it would hurt us more if I show myself once again.”

Wordlessly, Hu Tao understood, and even without a physical heart and lungs you felt your chest constrict as you ached to see him one more time—to feel that once rush you had when you liked him, when he returned his feelings, when you two had gotten married to each other. All of those will be left now.

“I love you,” you whisper to the air, to the wind, to the breeze; hoping it would get to him.

And in his seat, he whispered back, “Likewise, my dearest.”

But you weren’t there anymore.
