#zhongli thinks he's funny

[snakeoid]

zhonglis so funny bc he's always saying hes just a normal guy now but when you ask anyone about him they just talk about how unnormal he is

[n4tsum1-san]

every time someone mischaracterizes nuanced character relationships and turns it into a basic parent-child dynamic, i die a little inside

my main gripe with this is about nahida being called scara's mom/aunt but it also extends to zhongli & xiao, beidou & kazuha, wriothesley & sigewinne, neuvillette & furina, and others.

like. i enjoy found family as much as everyone else, but that is a terrible injustice to the characters' writing. the character typecast as the child is infantilized to hell and back while the other character is reduced to a 2d caricature of the perfect parent. Bruh

don't get me wrong, headcanons are fine and all, it just irks me that some people consider it lore accurate when it really isn't

[zorosdimples]

sending childe—a notoriously impatient man—on an impossible scavenger hunt as a way to stave off his advances (since he won’t take “no” for an answer). you tell him that if he can complete it within a day’s time, he can court you.

[torgawl]

this is absolutely killing me *bombastic side eye, criminal offensive side eye playing in the background*

[vv-ispy]

XiaoVen and ZhongVen content is really funny to me sometimes because it's often "this guy who is the archon of Mondstadt and loves his nation and his people? Let's put him in Liyue"

[scatteredrosepetals]

if Pantalone was in the Liyue Archon Quest

[booksandmore]

i like zhaoven as a concept but in a very specific divorced/were-never-meant-to-be way/different-ideologies-mixed-up-with-tragic-gay-pining kinda way but ESPECIALLY in relation to xiaoven

because imagine you're just going about you Totally Normal Human Day Life and your son/mentee/subordinate/general/college/little brother thing is like "oh yeah i met someone" and your Delighted because that's your son/mentee/subordinate/general/college/little brother and you want him to be happy and he needs to go out more! so you suggest meeting this person he's seeing expecting like maybe some rando human/vision bearer/even some other supernatural being, whatever, you don't know what to expect, but then your exhusband/failed situationship/frenemy Thing just fucking waltzes right in even though he walked out of your life centuries ago only to be never heard from again from either you OR the nation he's supposed to be in charge of and you're like "wtf?? ur alive??" but you cant tell your son/mentee/subordinate/general/college/little brother not to go out with him because a.) you're the one who told him to go out in the first place and if you discourage this he might literally become an overworked hermit and die and also b.) your exhusband/failed situationship/frenemy Thing was never really a bad partner you were just bad for each other so your try to be supportive and polite but it is Literally Impossible to feel normal about this but you are Trying except your little shit of an exhusband/failed situationship/frenemy Thing keeps being passive aggressive which is just unfair because YOUR the victim here? hello?? and your kinda hurt that he never bothered to look for you after he came back (not that you'd ever want to get back together you'd rather DIE for real) even tho you understand that they have that weird music backstory thing going on but still it kinda hurts yk but your exhusband/failed situationship/frenemy Thing literally like "omfg i though you were dead and i was the last person alive from our friendgroup?" which is Besides The Point Okay so you keep trying to extend an olive branch and he keeps being like "no fuck off??" and while this is happening xiao is there in a corner trying not to combust

[ceruleanvermillion]

I know ppl look forward to venti and hu tao trolling zhongli but me personally i think zhongli should troll them back hes gonna have the time of his life

bonus points if venti's in on it for no reason other than him thinking its funny

[hitsuyou-fukaketsu]

moody leo (thunderous applause)

[snakeoid]

i hope venti and hu tao friendship becomes real and i hope they ruin zhongli's life together :3c

actually i don’t think we can say for sure that zhongli isn’t the geo dragon just because he’s an adeptus. he’s different from the other dragons that were created by hand or abyssal powers, and the fact that he’s the first and only geo archon and the only dragon we’ve seen or heard of that has geo powers (again, that wasn’t created) gives more merit to this theory.

we simply don’t know enough at this point to say that zhongli isn’t the geo dragon with complete certainty.

hot hoyoverse men alert

[cometrose]

me looking up signs of autism: hmm this is just like zhongli

[aromanticasterisms]
