Random update on Author-Kun! Just got hired finally so updates and new posts will be even slower than usual. Full-time job+being the only care giver for a lovely child will take up most of my time unfortunately. Keep an eye out though, because I already have the next one in the works!

[winterisholding]

Rules

There is NO age restriction on my account, therefore I will NOT BE ACCEPTING 18+ REQUESTS

Please be kind and civil, if a mistake is noticed, I would like to be calmly and kindly corrected

I don't write for underaged characters, I do not age them up nor will I be willing to ship them with anyone publicly

I write for GENDER NEUTRAL readers only as I myself am under the nonbinary umbrella

Pregnancy asks are not ok, BUT adoption+just having a child with no specification on how they came to be is fine. I am a parent myself and have been pregnant, I have no issues with it, but to keep my account GENDER NEUTRAL this is my compromise.

Angst is fine but I will not always get right on your requests because I struggle with mental health and writing angst can make it worse at times

[winterisholding]

May I add you to my genshin writers list and do you write for enjou,Dottore,Al haitham and pantalone?

Due to me having little to know information about Dottore and Pantalone I don't feel super comfortable writing for them, bit to mention I don't know who Enjou is at all

I'll happily do some Al-Haitham eventually though!

Diluc x Gn!Reader - Proposal

Diluc wrung his hands nervously, he had been planning this night for months now just to make it perfect. He would be a massive lier if he said his nerves weren't completely through the roof. He stood just outside of Angel's Share, awaiting your arrival. He had left you a beautiful letter and rose by your shared bedside in the morning for you to wake up to, inviting you to meet him there so he may escort you on a date. You were excited, to say the least, when he had requested you dress nicely. Diluc was a very busy man after all, and while he loved you dearly he did not often have time to do such extravagant events with you.

Double checking yourself in the mirror, you made your way to the tavern, a blush blooming across your cheeks as you met his gaze. He was dressed in a fine tux, his hair pulled back into a high ponytail. He looked handsome, and it made your heart flutter in your chest. As you stepped forward, he met you halfway, taking your hands into his and pulling you into a kiss. You melted into his embrace, smiling as you resting your forehead against his. Diluc chuckled softly under his breath, the sound sending pleasant shivers up your spine “You look absolutely gorgeous.” He finally spoke, cupping your cheek in his gloved hand. Leaning into his touch you giggle “I can say the same for you, Diluc.” You steal another peck from his lips.

Diluc indulges you, as he always had. How could he not? Not when he was so smitten with you. The red haired man gently tugged your hand, pulling away to start leading you. You entwine your fingers with his, walking side by side through the quieting streets of the city. Down the stairs and over the bride, he guides you in comfortable silence. Just being able to enjoy each other's company was more than enough for the both of you. Walking along to path and up into the mountains, he sits you down on a blanket after revealing a hidden picnic basket. As you both get settled, you rest your head against his shoulder “This is wonderful, Diluc. Thank you for this, truly. It almost makes me wonder if I missed an anniversary or something.” You chuckled.

Diluc shook his head with a soft, amused smile “No, nothing like that, my dear. I just… wanted to do something nice and spend time with you is all. I love you, so very much.” He speaks as he kisses the top of your head. You close your eyes in domestic bliss “It means a lot to me. I know you're really busy and important, but that just makes what time we get together that much better right?” You grin up at him, hugging his arm now. He chuckles at your antics and gives you a fleeting kiss “Yes, for sure.” He takes his time, pampering and feeding you parts of the meal he had prepared while you did the same for him.

Once the food had all been eaten, and the sun had begun to set; you two remained side by side, looking out over the horizon. His arm was wrapped around your waist, your head on his shoulder and body pressed against his to cuddle. He laid his head atop of your own, just holding you close to him. As you looked up, you pointed towards the sky “Diluc, look! You can already see some of the stars!” You smile. Diluc gazes up towards the sky, confirming your observation “Ah, I see. I hadn't realized we were out here for so long.” He frowned, his nerves suddenly picking up all over again.

While the average acquaintance, or even some friends wouldn't have noticed the shift in the usually stoic man, it caught your attention almost instantly “Oh Diluc, it's alright I'm sure we still have time to get home and be ready for bed by the time it is for us to sleep and be fully rested.” You try to reassure him “And even if not, I really enjoyed today regardless. It's nice to get you all to myself for a while.” You joke lightly, hoping to ease whatever has him so concerned. Diluc smiles to you, taking a shaking deep breath ”No it's nothing like that I just… I love you so very much you know that right? You are my world, the spark which starts my flame, my heart.” He takes your hands into his own “You have brought so much good into my life. I never thought I would ever meet someone like you, I didn't believe I deserved it. That day when you stumbled into the winery soaked in rain and mud, was the day I was blessed by the gods. You mean everything to me, that's why I prepared this dinner and brought you here.” You feel your eyes becoming misty from the tears beginning to form, and before you reply he shifts to one knee. Briefly letting go of your hands to fumble with his pocket and retrieve a red velvet box, he presents it to you. A beautiful garnet and diamond ring stares back at you as shock consumes your person “(Y/N)... Will you make the happiest man in Mondstadt and marry me?”

Smol Author's Update

Still alive! Currently working on a Diluc x Reader rn :) been low on inspiration and a ton of stuff going on.

Writer's block has me in it's clutches, because normally in order to get the creative juices running I roleplay with someone (not necessarily what I'm writing about, but just in general) but recently lost my last rp partner 🥲

Hang in there, I'll get back to writing soon. And if interested, give me a dm! I require all rp partners to be 18+ just because in general I'm an adult. I'm also open to just chat with people! Don't be scared, I only bite sometimes!

Kaeya x GN!Reader - Reverse comfort/anniversary

Tw: soft Kaeya :)

The cavalry captain collapsed onto the couch within your shared apartment. The day had been long, as several more knights had been rendered injured by the recent stormterror attacks. His workload had practically doubled just within a couple days, leaving him drained on a good day and absolutely hammered at the tavern on a bad day. You were thankful he had come home first today, coming up behind him and running your hands over his shoulders. He gazed up up at you with a tired eye, a slight smile forcing it's way onto his face "Hello there love," he reached up to smooth a thumb over your cheek. Leaning into his touch with a soft sigh, you lean over the back of the couch to kiss his forehead "Another rough day?" He gave a small nod.

You hummed gently "Are you hungry? I've got dinner made already, I kept it on the stove to keep it warm for you," His gaze softened "Of course, mind going ahead of me my dear? I've got one last thing to do today," you tilt your head in curiosity but pull away. While setting up the dinner table you feel arms wrapping around your waist, his face nuzzling into the crook of your neck "I love you," he murmured against your skin. Placing a kiss to your shoulder he pulled back, cold metal touching your skin. A chain settled around your neck, and as you reach up you can recognize the snowflake shaped pendant against your fingers. He puts a mirror in front of you so you can look, a beautiful necklace sitting around your neck.

You turn to kiss his cheek "I love it, thank you. I had almost believed you'd forgot. Not that I would have blamed you, I know work has been atrocious lately," he chuckled, the sound reverberating against your back from his chest "I'd never forget the most important day of our love. The only thing that could ever be more important is our wedding anniversary," he squeezed your hips gently "Well, if you ever proposed perhaps that could become a reality," you tease. He chuckles again and steals a kiss from your lips "Soon, I want to make sure there's nothing in the way. After the problem with stormterror is settled, I promise you we'll take that step." You melt against him, turning to wrap your arms around him and hide your face into his chest. He laid his chin on top of your head, stroking his hand up and down your spine gently "Why don't we sit down and enjoy this magnificent meal you've prepared? I promise you, afterwards I'm all yours~" he cooed, kissing your forehead before pulling away to sit with you. You really couldn't love this man more than you already did, even if nobody else could see just how sweet he could be.

Aether x GN!Reader - Confession/reverse comfort 

TW: Moderate self deprecation 

The traveller looks over to you and smiles, the atmosphere of the serenitea pot calm and peaceful as always. You looked up towards the false sky of the realm, kicking your legs while sitting on the edge of the tall rock. You had never quite understood their use but you certainly aren't complaining about the view. Your companion beside you takes a deep breath and sighs, dragging you from your thoughts to gaze in his direction "What is it traveller? Remember you forgot your commissions again?" You jest, chuckling softly. He rubs the back of his head with a bashful laugh "Oh, no, not necessarily. I'm just… really glad you're here," he looks away, taking his turn to gaze up at the sky "Of course I'm here, I told you I would help you no matter what right? I'm more than happy to travel with you, never worry about that." He smiles "There's… something I want to tell you, but you have to promise not to tell anyone else alright?" You blink in surprise but nod your head in agreement "My real name is… Aether. Only you and Paimon know about it. Please… it's very important to me that you don't tell anyone," The traveller, who you now know as Aether, turns to you with a pleading gaze.

You take a deep breath, processing the information "I may not understand why you want to keep it from everyone but I swear to you I won't tell anyone but, can I just ask one thing? Why tell me? Not that I'm not honored but I just don't understand why you would tell me of all people. I'm not that special after all. Aether blinks at you for a moment, and for a moment you worry you may have done something wrong. He reaches out to you, placing a hand on your shoulder "Don't say that… you are special, to me at least. I trust you the most out of everyone I've met. I really care about you, you know," you flush under his praise and turn away "I'm… not too sure what you mean by that, I'm a nobody, really. I'm not particularly strong, or an archon like Ei. I'm just some random you picked up on the street like a stray dog," you laugh, though it's to hide your pain.

Aether frowns, turning to fully face you "You are one of the only people who was ready to help me right off the bat. You never asked for anything, you cared." He stresses. You shake your head a bit "Because that's what everyone should have done. You're just looking for your sister. You shouldn't have to save an entire country just so some people put up a couple of missing person posters that won't do a thing. You're a person too Aether, it's just a shame hardly anyone sees that," you pause when arms wrap around you, his entire body shaking against you. You can feel hot tears hitting your shoulder as he pulls you into him. You had always been agitated at the fact that others never did more for him. You knew he was getting tired too. 

Your arms wrap around him as you begin to rock, cradling him close while he cries into your shoulder "There, there. It's going to ok. I made a promise to you that I would help you find her." He buries his face against you and you let him, knowing how much pent up emotions he must be carrying with him all this time. When he finally pulls back he has a smile on his face, bright compared to the fresh redness of his eyes from his tears. Your heart skips a beat, internally cursing yourself over your fleeting crush when all he needed right now was a friend. Aether clears his throat for a moment and wipes his face "I'm sorry I just… it's been too much for me lately." you smile to encourage him gently "I know, sometimes everyone just needs a good cry don't you think? It helps get rid of so much tension," he nods in agreement. 

"Y/N… the real reason I decided to tell you my name is… it's because I really care about you. I care about you in… a more than friends way. The whole reason I brought you here with me, alone, is because I was hoping to ask you to go to the next windbloom festival with me… as a date." He fiddled with his fingers, looking down into his lap nervously. You blinked at him in surprise, the confession coming out of nowhere. He had been nervous around you for a while lately but you only figured it was caused by everything going on in Fontaine "I… I would love to go with you Aether. It'll be nice to get to see everyone too, it's been so long since we've been in Mondstate. I'm sure everyone missed us… maybe except for Timmie but he's just kinda weird…" Aether laughs at your dislike for the boy "Yeah, I can't really eat a madame anymore without thinking about him. Though honestly I don't feel bad about it, it's his fault for feeding the birds on the bridge,"

You lean into his shoulder "I'll never regret helping you, you know." Aether's face flushed, slowly wrapping an arm around your waist "I sure hope not… though I do worry about you. You've gone through so much just by traveling with me. I've put you in so much danger," he frowns. You take a deep breath of his scent, vanilla and stars fill your senses "It's all worth it if I get to stay by your side. I just hope when the time comes, you won't leave me behind," as Aether tried to reply, a shrill voice breaks the silence "There you two are! It's about time! Paimon was wondering if you were ever going to tell them! I swear, Paimon was going to tell them tomorrow if you didn't do it yourself!" The flying mascot crossed her arms and huffed. Aether's eye twitching in annoyance "Paimon…" the tiny fairy grew a worried expression "Uh oh-" you nearly fall back from laughing as the chase ensued, watching the blonde haired boy as he disappeared from sight following a frightened Paimon into the manor.
