Sagau Zhongli and Ningguang with reader who makes a crap ton of fanart
Zhongli
• when he first came across your art, he became quite curious. The art most common in Tevyat is pretty traditional, and there was something just quite different and unique about yours. Will praise all of your artwork, and probably has a whole stash of your drawings hanging up neatly framed somewhere
• he will most likely ask you about the characters you draw, and will listen politely and intently as you tell him about them (wants to know what exactly you like about that character, he knows for a fact he can be better that them, he's better your majesty)
• If you drew him, Zhongli would try to maintain composed despite the fact he wanted to cry out in joy
"You drew me? Oh, I cannot thank you enough for your mercy and kindness to me, thank you dear creator"
• will examine your different drawings to find clues on how you're feeling. Does your recent drawing seem sadder than your usual ones? Because if so Zhongli will not hesitate to spoil you rotten until your drawings brighten up to their usual again.
Ningguang
• There is probably an entire black market of your art. That random sketch you recycled yesterday? Being sold for $235 at least. And Ningguang is always the highest bidder.
• if you do art commissions she will always, and I mean always, commission you. (She probably finds excuses to commission art from you. There's gonna be a festival soon? Well, looks like she'll have to commission you for flyer art)
• she probably hangs up your artwork all around the jade chamber, it's walls are covered in your art. It is basically the unofficial creator art museum.
• (high key gets jealous of those pretty and rich characters you make fanart of. She's attractive and can spoil you rotten as well, just keep your attention on her instead of those 2d characters) (haha, ironic.)

Okay. Listen. I love fireflys. They are just so cool! They are like little floating stars, they are beautiful. Those pretty little soaring flames, beings of pure hope and comfort. There are so many beautiful and emotional night time scenes with firefly in movies as well. I can't help but make some firefly oc head cannons now!
Your Firefly s/o who you met at the park as the sun was setting. You had tears streaming down your face, nothing on your mind. The only thing you knew at the moment was the thrashing cracking ache of your heart. You had dashed out of your house, just wanting to get away. You sat down on the bench, the hoodie you had on doing barely enough to keep warm. You didn't have it in you to go back now though. So you sat there for a few minutes, hands cold but warm tears sliding down your face. Then you felt a different type of warm.
You looked up, eyes red and puffy. In front of you was the most beautiful being you ever saw. They glowed a warm cozy light, and you didn't feel as cold anymore. Atop their head were two cute antennas, accompanied by soft looking yellow hair. It was radiant in light. Their soft kind eyes seemed to wrap you up like a blanket, and you couldn't help but feel comforted by their presence.
"Hey..."
Gosh, even their voice was as warm and comforting. The small smile they offered you helped ease you out of any previous uncomfortableness.
"h-hi..."
You swallowed. Your voice was quiet, shaky, and the crack in your voice was quite obvious.
"Would it be okay if I sat next to you?"
You nodded your head, not trusting your voice. They sat next to you, and for a few minutes you just enjoyed each others company. Before you both knew it, you had become best friends. Soon you turned into lovers.
You had never before felt so loved, safe, and warm.

Hi! I hope this request fits your rules - if not, feel free to ignore it 💀
I just wanted to request an comfort-oneshot where an injured/unconscious xiao is found by beidou & the crux and wakes up on the ship ✨ and beidou being the mom she is and insisting that he gets treatment and rests till he feels better and xiao just feeling uncomfortable with the attention but can’t leave since they are in the middle of the sea and he is too weak to teleport LMAO
I just thought that I never saw these characters interact & I don’t even know if beidou knows that xiao is xiao?? Like how the conqueror of demons looks?
Also this is not a ship or anything, I just think it would be kinda sweet ✨
Greetings & hope your having a great day!!
-🌼
Thanks for the request! I apologize if any of the characters are out of character. I don't know how to write Kazuha's personality as well as I wish I could, but I hope it's satisfactory.
(Tw for injury, sadness, over working, blood, violence, self depreciation)(I did my best to wrote down any possible triggers. If there are any I forgot to mention, please tell me! Thanks for reading everyone! 😊)
It was an easy job. However hundreds of easy jobs in the span of a short time couldn't be good for anyone, not even the conquerer of demons himself. He had been straining his body for quite awhile, the aches and pains a familiar friend to him at this point. So when he decided one more job for the night wouldn't hurt, he didn't take into account his preexisting injuries. After all he had been fighting with injuries plenty of times. However even the most experienced and well adjusted beings make mistakes.
Xiao does his best to ignore the aching in his legs. The pains in his arms. The stabbing feeling on his abdomen. The voices mocked him. What kind of adepti feels and is bothered by such diminutive pain? Will "the mighty conquerer of demons" stop to take a break?
So he kept going. He wasn't weak. He would not allow himself to be such.
He approached the camp quietly. There were more fatui agents then when he first scouted the area. Even so he couldn't let something like this stop him. So he quickly made his way towards the first opponent.
Blood, slashing, stabbing, dodging.
Xiao just had to keep going. He just had to keep moving a little longer. Soon they would be finished. After releasing his elemental burst the last enemy fell over with a thud.
Xiao slumped against a tree and accessed the damage. He had a pretty nasty stab wound in his side and a pretty bad gash on his arm. He did his best to stop the blood from gushing out of the opening. He hated this. He hated the feeling of the blood and dirt beneath his nails, he hated the feeling of blood escaping through the partings of his fingers, sliding down his hands and staining them a sickening red color.
Xiao let out a sigh. He was so pathetic. Morax would be so disappointed in him. He needed to do so much better if he wanted to earn his place in the world. Be in the world not as a monster, but a protector.
Hearing footsteps he turned to face the person intruding on his thinking.
There staring in shock was a platinum blonde haired boy, the single streak of redish orange in his hair bound to draw eyes.
"Stay back. What are your intentions?"
The stranger knelt besides Xiao, staring in worry.
"I only want to help. If I leave you here like this you'll bleed out."
Xiao scoffed. Something like this wouldn't kill an adepti. Keep him out of commission for a few days sure, but not kill him.
"You needn't worry about these matters. I'll be just fine."
The blonde only seemed exasperated at Xiao's "comforting" words.
"You're not thinking clearly due to your bloodloss. I have some medical supplies nearby."
"I'm fine, thank you. I don't need your human provisions."
The blonde could only shake his head at the stubbornness, kneeling down to pick Xiao up.
"W-what are you doing!?"
"We're just going to fix you up with the supplies. Afterwards you are free to leave and continue with your day."
Xiao let out an exhale. This human was quite persistent. He knew if he kept resisting the human would only continue being an annoyance. So he reluctantly allowed the boy to carry him.
In the time they travelled Xiao learned the annoyingly persistent human was named Kazuha. They were apparently going to the ship Kazuha lived on.
Finally they reached their destination.
" Kazuha! You're finally back! We were bout to leave without you! Why dont'cha come up and- .......... Who is that?"
"Beidou this is Xiao, I found him pretty badly injured."
"I see. I'll get the med kit ready!"
Before Xiao knew it he was settled down and being bandaged up.
"How did ya get this injured?"
Kazuha gave Beidou a look.
"Sorry! Of course ya don't have to tell us, I was just curious."
"I was fighting some fatui."
Beidou nodded in understanding.
"They got ya pretty good. You need to be more careful next time. You're gonna end up like a mummy!"
"Don't worry. I won't allow myself such weakness again."
Beidou looked at him concerned.
"Hey now, that's not what I said. I said to be careful, not to toughen yourself up to the point you see getting injured and making mistakes as being extremely weak. Everyone gets injured and makes mistakes. So you can as well."
"You don't understand. I can't allow myself to make mistakes. I have too much depending on me."
Beidou's eyes softened.
"I know what that's like. I'm the captain of this ship afterall. Every single crew mate and passenger on this ship is my responsibility. Making mistakes could lead to disaster, not just for myself, but everyone else as well."
Beidou looked up at the ceiling, reminiscening.
"In my younger days, I was so scared of making decisions without checking in with what everyone on the ship thought. I thought making a mistake would make me a failure. Make me less of a captain. But one day during a storm, I figured everything out. I had two choices to make that morning, wait until the storm completely passed, which would delay us quite a bit. Or try to beat the storm. I had asked everyone on the ship, and they all chose to beat the storm. I didn't agree with the choice but went along with it. A few hours later we were caught in the storm. Everyone was so sure we would die and sink. They needed me, so despite the shaking in my hands I took the wheel and got us out of the storm. I didn't second guess myself as much after that."
Xiao looked down thoughfully.
"what does that story have to do with me?"
"That mistakes don't define your capability. That a few moments of weakness doesn't mean you as a person is weak. That your loved ones should and most likely will stand by you even through your mistakes. And if they don't... Well... Your always welcome here."
Xiao looked up in surprise. They...
He looked to the side in embarrassment.
"thanks..."
Kazuha peeled through the door. Beidou and Xiao have been talking for awhile. He had slipped out the door earlier, sensing they were about to have a personal conversation.
Xiao was getting up ready to leave. Beidou and Kazuha said their farewells and Xiao left
That night Xiao arrived home to a very worried Verr Goldet. He went to bed with a stomach full of almond tofu and a clear mind.

In SAGAU the first order of business is to amass an army of Anemo slimes and have them follow me everywhere. Electro slimes are welcome too
Reader with an army of slimes
You sighed in exasperation. This entire situation was quite exhausting. Last night you had been asleep in your cozy bed, but when you woke up you were in the middle of nowhere. A desolate prairie.
You leaned against a tree. You've been walking for quite awhile, but haven't encountered and signs of civilization. Your knees were scraped up, your legs were like jello, and you were worried sick.
Then you heard a rustling in the grass. You turned around, but there was only a gust of wind.
Then there was bouncing. You saw it. A light blue bouncing blob sat there idly in front of you.
It made it's way towards you, and you backed up.
It looked up at you in curiosity, then blew some wind at you playfully. You stood still. It didn't look aggressive. In fact it seemed quite cute and friendly.
You hesitantly take a step forward, placing your hand on top of it's head.
It closed it's eyes, and bounced slightly. It was happy.
You smiled at it's adorable display of delight. You knew led down and continued petting and patting it. Soon enough a smaller slime approached you, so you used your other hand.
In only a few minutes, you were surrounded by the creatures. You didn't mind however. They made you feel happy and safe.
They did make you question however. What exactly are they? And where are you? Did you discover a new species?
You spent awhile there in that prairie, just playing and hanging out with your slime friends, in bliss and unaware of anything else.
An arrow flying near you broke you out of your fantasy.
"Don't be afraid outlander! I will save you!"
You glanced up only to see an eccentric brown haired girl. She wielded a bow in one of her hands, ready to aim. She wore a red outfit, with a red bow on her head. Was she a cosplayer? But why would a cosplayer be carrying around a very real and very deadly bow? She kind of resembled a rabbit. A rabbit that was ready to annihilate your little blobby pals.
"Wait! No I'm not in danger! They're friendly!"
The girl looked at you confused. Then in a millisecond a look of shock and realisation spread across her face.
"C-Creator!?"

So good and interesting! Excited to see where this story will go!
FORGOTTEN
Part 3
Warnings: Diluc and Kaeya are sus
Notes: Exams are over…the suffering…is over….I’m finally FRE- *gets smacked by multiple tests*
Here part 1 and part 2
Summary: You die stopping your brothers form fighting, but somehow live? You lose all memory of them tho and get transported to another relam. And then you meet four years later.
“THEY SAVED MY LIFE JUST A WHILE AGO.”
Traveler yelled in frustration and it made Diluc freeze. Like a deer caught in headlights. A million questions rose in his mind. Did he hear that correct?
“Master Diluc? Hey? Are yo-“
“Please go back to your room.”
And with that, he left.
Traveler groaned in frustration. Who is this mystery person? They took down those monsters form the pit so easily…Their head throbbed. Maybe some fresh air can help? Yes, fresh air would be lovely. Maybe a small walk around the vineyard as well….in some appropriate clothes of course.
They headed back to their room and changed into their normal clothes. It was hard to do that because of the injuries but they were unfazed. They could only think about the mystery person in silence. Speaking of silence, where is the silence breaker Paimon? Meh maybe she’s outside as well?
________________________
It was a peaceful sunny day outside. Just like the day when they fell into that pit of horror. Crystalflies were merrily fluttering among the vineyards with a soft glow. Traveler strolled among them, wanting to collect them but their aching body said otherwise. There were so many things going around! From a distance we can see birds in their nests, squirrels collecting nuts, Paimon arguing with Kaeya…wait- Kaeya? What was he doing here?
Next to the manor’s entrance, Paimon was yelling at Kaeya and angrily stomping her foot in air while Kaeya just crossed his arms and said something that seemed to annoy her even further. Next to them was Elzer who was desperately trying to calm them down.
“HAH! PAIMON BETS YOU CANT EVEN EAT GRAPES!”
“Now now, just because i don’t like grape juice doesn’t mean I can’t eat grapes.”
“Why are you two yelling about eating grapes?” Traveler decided to join in. Paimon perked up at the familiar voice.
“Traveler! Look! Paimon was just asking Elzer for grape juice and Kaeya had THE AUDACITY to appear out of NOWHERE AND MAKE FUN OF PAIMON FOR WANTING A DRINK!”
“I was just trying to greet you Paimon-“
“What kind of greeting goes “ew grape juice”?”
“Pfft” Traveler tried to stifle their laughter. It only further offended Paimon and she began ranting even louder.
“By the way what are you doing here Kaeya?” Ignoring the angry pixie, traveler now gave their attention to Kaeya’s strange presence at the manor. Why was he here though?
(If you look real closely you can see salt being rubbed on a certain angry marshmallow who was being ignored.)
“Don’t mind me, I’m here to pay a visit to master Diluc regarding some matters. Now, Elzer?”
“Right this way Master Kaeya,” Elzer bowed and began leading Kaeya inside the manor. They were about to enter when traveler suddenly called his name.
“Kaeya!” He was there in that picture. His blue hair and eye can’t be mistaken for somebody else’s. Maybe he knows who that child was?
Kaeya stopped in his footsteps and turned to the traveler.
“…nothing, sorry.” But traveler hesitated.
Kaeya stared for a second then huffed with a small smile and went inside, leaving traveler alone with Paimon.
…………
“HEY! ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING???” Paimon impatiently floated in front of the traveler’s face, waving her arms. They snapped out of their thoughts. Darn, they let another chance escape…
“What was that? You were staring into space.” Her tone was full of concern. Should she know? Doesn’t seem to bring any harm to tell her…
“Paimon, there was something in that room at the end of the ha-“
“Honorary Knight, hello!” It was Adelinde this time.
“Hey Adelinde! What’s up?” Paimon turned and waved at her as she approached them.
“Oh nothing much, I see you are recovering honorary knight.” She smiled at the traveler. They smiled back.
“I am, but pray tell, why is Kaeya here?” Curiosity got the better of traveler as they asked.
Adelinde’s smile was replaced by a sad look. She quickly tried to cover it up but the duo had already seen it.
“I think they are having a work related meeting. Im not sure.” She said but it also felt fake, like a lie.
“Adelinde, are you okay?” Paimon was confused at her behaviour.
“Im fine really! Instead I should be the one asking you, traveler you look pretty distracted by something.” She was right about traveler looking distracted though. They really can’t get their mind off that picture.
“Adelinde, can I ask you something?”
“Yes?”
“What is that room at the end of the hall on the first floor?”
______________________
Somewhere….
“Hey toots, whatcha doing here all alone?”
Alone on a rooftop, a (h/c) haired person sits and stares at the black and red sky above them. They didn’t notice the brunette girl approaching them until she called them out.
“Nothing much, just wondering about this damn pit…” they sighed. The girl lazily sat next to them.
“or are you wondering about those two?”
“…..”
“I’ll take that as a yes.”
“*sigh* It’s just…listen, I don’t believe in this “aura” and shit but there is something about them that felt so familiar.”
“…have you inhaled any toxic gases recently?”
The brunette received a playful punch on the shoulder. She giggled.
“No damn it. I just- ugh…even I can’t explain this…it feels so familiar like I…I-“ they stop mid sentence as they find themselves short of words. What is that familiar feeling?
The brunette was about to speak when a siren went off.
“Crap it’s happening again!” They both got up from their seats and jumped off the roof, reaching the ground running through the ghostly streets.
“Wasn’t this supposed to not occur until next week??” The (h/c) haired person asked clearly confused and concerned.
“I don’t fucking know! Just focus of reaching the top of the cathedral!” The brunette yelled as they both ran even faster.

This is such a cute and funny story would definitely recommend it!
Part 1
It’s been a month and half since you and Kunikuzushi met. He was cautious of you at first (because duh you just abducted him) but started warming up slowly. Heck you two aren’t even stuck together. He could have walked away anytime but for some reason, he stayed. Maybe he really believes you are his “guardian friend”?
But yeah, using your in game powers you teleported yourselves out of Inazuma and into Mondstadt because Inazuma was anything but safe.
So now, here you two are, residing in a temporary home in Springvale. Both of you accompanying each other in your daily shenanigans. You however, keep an eye on Kunikuzushi because he is as innocent and naïve as a small child.
___________________
“Hey Kuni, could you go and fetch some berries from the garden?”, Kunikuzushi heard your voice call out from the kitchen. It was a sunny morning. The sky was a beautiful blue sheet with the perfect amount of clouds floating around the sun. A perfect weather to relax in your backyard, exactly what Kuni was doing.
“Sure!”, he answered back and got up. The backyard had a small yet sweet garden with a few fruits and veggies patches. There was of course a thick berry bush.
Kunikuzushi picked up a nearby basket and began picking some berries, carefully picking the ripe ones. Once he was done, he turned around to leave and-
*SQUEAK*
???
It came from the bushes….Kunikuzushi stopped and listened.
….
*SQUEAK*
Is there a rodent in the bushes? That can’t be good. Y/n said that they are bad for crops…
Carefully setting his basket aside, he approached the bush. Hesitantly, he stretched his hand and inspected inside-
!!!
Inside the bush, was a small electro slime, stuck between thorny branches. The poor thing was shaking. It looked pleadingly at Kunikuzushi. Begging him for help with his “teary” eyes.
Usually Kunikuzushi has seen how dangerous slimes can be. But this one was so small…so vulnerable…he wanted to help it…
He carefully grabbed the smooth part of the thorny branches and began removing them away from the slime. He was slow during the whole process in order to not startle the slime because if he did then I’ll get hurt by the other branches around it.
After what felt like an hour, he finally managed to free the slime. It jumped out of the bush happily and stared at him with sparkly eyes that said “my hero”.
“There, you are free now. I think you should go home, come on shoo!” Kunikuzushi tried to shoo the slime away but it continued staring at him.
He awkwardly gazed around until he decided to get up and go. As he was walking towards the door he felt something bump his leg. He stopped.
…..
The slime was still there and it was lovingly nuzzling itself against his leg. Kunikuzushi has never felt so confused in his life.
__________________
“Hey Kuni, why were you out for so long? Did you get the b- OH MY GOD!”
Here we see, a wild Kunikuzushi with a wild electro slime in his arms standing awkwardly next to the kitchen table. The sight reminded you of a child with a stray puppy about to ask if “we can keep it”.
“Listen, don’t panic, I can expl-“
“It’s so cute!” You cooed at the little blob who tilted it’s “head” at you mildly confused. The slime wasn’t the only one as Kunikuzushi also had the matching expression.
“Where did you find it?”, you asked as you gently took the little slime in your arms, cradling and stroking it. It purred in delight.
“O-oh it was stuck in the berry bush. I freed it but now it won’t leave me alone…” Kunikuzushi looked away and rubbed his neck.
“So can we keep it?” He looked at you with small puppy eyes.
“Only if it wants to stay with us”, you stated.
Kunikuzushi stared while processing what you just said. Then, he gently took the slime back in his arms and-
“Do you want to stay with us little slime?” He asked while looking into it’s eyes.
The slime had no definite face, only two round eyes. But one could still tell the overloading happiness emitting from it. The slime squeaked in joy and buried itself into Kunikuzushi’s chest so hard he stumbled.
“Woah- haha I guess you do!”
“Aw look at you! You just became a slime daddy!”, you cooed at him.
“A what now-“
“A slime daddy!”
“I…am a parenteral figure to this slime?” Oh my god he was so cute.
“Haha no no, it’s pretty normal to adopt different creature and claim to be their parent.” You pat his head.
“Oh, I guess then I’m your slime daddy then?” He held the slime up in air as it squeaked what seemed to be a “yes”.
He smiled…that smile then turned into a fit of giggles, and those giggles turned into hearty laughs as he hugged the slime. It was beautiful seeing him laugh like that…it was so contagious that you started laughing as well. The slime only snuggled into his embrace, enjoying the sweet atmosphere.
________________
“So…watcha planning to name it?”, the slime had no name. You wondered for possible names as you, Kunikuzushi and the slime cuddled together on the couch while reading a book and enjoying the berry ice cream you made.
“Hmm…any ideas?” He also pondered.
“Well I think you should name it since you found it.”
“Uh…I have no idea…”
“No idea huh? Well how about Kuni jr?” You grinned at him as he flushed in embarrassment.
“Wha-“
“Or…kuni-kuni?” He turned even redder.
“S-stop!”
“Or, how ab-“
“Bu!”
“???”
“I’m gonna name them Bu…” he declared, his cheeks still red.
“Oh…watcha think Bu?” You asked the slime. Bu seemed to be approving of that name.
“Well then, welcome to our family Bu.”

How can you make something as good as this? Great job!
A scenario in which Genshin has this message board similar to Animal Crossing where we can type anything we want. The Creator is mute and can only offer encouragements/praises by leaving cute lil love notes to the Acolytes on this particular message board. Thus, it is considered a sacred relic and all offerings are left here. The Creator, as a player, finds these offerings as a daily treasure box with random goodies lol. Acolytes chosen as vessels on that day always look forward to the...(1)
(2) …messages, especially since the Creator has a habit of changing up team comps and mains so nobody feels left out. It deepens both the rivalry and camaraderie amongst the vessels, especially when the Creator ends up getting a new character that deviates the supposed schedule (since they have to focus leveling up and testing that particular character on the field).
A/N: Enjoy!
Word count: 2000, exactly. I know, I'm surprised too.
CW: None
Masterpost
taglist: @iyohime
Tumblr media
There was a welcome chill in the air as the two guards walked down the well-trodden path. A few leaves had begun to change their colors; it would not be long before the rest would follow suit. It was a quiet path, even though it was a well-known and well-traveled path. Dozens took this path out and around Inazuma City every single day, bringing their thanks, well-wishes, and gifts.
One of the guards was dealing with the last, carrying in his arms an elegantly carved cherry-wood lockbox, inlaid with amethyst and iolite. Every day, her Immortality gathered offerings, some from the noble houses, into boxes like these to be blessed by a priest and then sent down the path. It was rare for him to get a glimpse of the contents, but he’d seen them this morning. He did wonder why these things were being sent on- mushrooms, thieves’ insignias, rusted machine parts and smoldering cubes. He’d heard that yesterday’s offering had a beetle try to slip out from under the lid.
It wasn’t his job to worry about Their Light’s offerings, however. Ahead of him, the path made its final turn.
At the end of this famous path lay the humble shrine of the Creator, a pearl of Inazuma City. The nobles constantly fought against the Shogun, wishing to expand this shrine that sat so dear and close to Their heart, but time and again She rebuffed their efforts, keeping this place as such.
The low, red and white walls ringed the plot, a tall and wide gate sitting astride the few stairs up to the main area. Sitting as though built into the great sakura tree that dominated the place was the heart of the shrine- a bulletin board, crooked and cracked with age and wear but still standing, sturdy and strong. Paper grew from it, forming sheets and knots; ink occasionally seeped from the cracks, swirled around by an invisible force. Offerings were given at this shrine in the Creator’s honor, and if They were pleased, messages or orders would come loose from the board. This was the daily dealings that Inazuma and her Shogun did with their God.
Sitting all around the shrine were the gifts laid and structures built, either left by the Creator in distaste or taken in gratitude and sublimated into the great tree that dominated the shrine. Prayer slips illegible and jutting from the bark everywhere, fine jewelry being absorbed by errant branches, food being digested inside baskets woven from living roots.
The guards frowned as they approached the center of the shrine. There, like in any of the other days, sat the irregular sheet of paper the Creator had made for them that day, the one that they were tasked to retrieve for Her Eternity. But instead of a pristine paper marked with neat lines of characters, a stream of thick ink poured down its length, dripping into the pan that collected what fell from Their board. Before either of them could react, something on the board broke, sending several half-formed sheets, several malformed and knotted wads of paper, and the ruined orders tumbling down into the pan alongside a new burst of ink.
The two guards shared a glance. This had been happening with concerning frequency these days- what should have been a simple offer-and-receive turned into… this. The guard with the box went off to set the offerings down and retrieve yesterday’s container, freeing it from the day’s growth of branches while the other guard inspected the board more closely.
Advice for a marriage, encouragement to give things another try, admonishment for lying to a friend… the handwriting was all identifiable and identical, but nothing on the board looked like it was what he was supposed to look for. No official seal, no addressing of the Shogun or any of her major subordinates, nothing. It took a minute more of searching before he found something promising, folded inside of one of the sizable knots that broke earlier. Pulling the paper out and inspecting it, he realized it was what they were looking for.
Once he read it fully, he realized that it was but another harbinger of unrest.
Tumblr media
There was an uncomfortable chill in the air. Kamisato Ayato and Guji Yae Miko outwardly sat calmly on opposite sides of the table, but everyone else in the room shifted their gazes between the two with visible unease. Not only were these two bright minds of Inazuma frequent foes, skirmishing over any minute detail that got in between them, the world had given them something new over which to lash out at each other- as well as those unfortunate to be in the same room. In fact, two of their frequent targets were in the room at that very moment.
With visible wariness and caution, Thoma set a steaming cup of tea in front of Ayato. Ayato glanced down, delicately grabbed it, and took a sip. “Thoma.”
He flinched. “Y-Yes, Waka?”
“Do you remember my order for tea?”
“Of course I–”
“What was it?”
“Black tea with a touch of milk–”
“And?”
Thoma sighed. “Waka, we both know that there weren’t any of those tapioca beads here. It’s an odd enough good that we had difficulty procuring them for the estate, how do you think they would stock those here?”
“Then perhaps my servants should have thought ahead, hm? Quite unwise to think of a beloved of the Creator like this.”
There was an unsettling chuckle, sending a chill down the spines of most of those in the room. “My my, little Ayato,” Yae Miko smiled behind a hand fan, “perhaps one should know how that Great One expects Their chosen to behave before admonishing others.”
“Oh,” Ayato laughed back, “a thousand pardons. I was just caught off guard, being chastised about ‘proper behavior’ by someone who must have the rite of penance memorized by rote.”
“How cute. Perhaps one might need a reminder about who was elected Their chosen first.”
“Perhaps one needs a reminder of who was chosen after putting their old, disused toys away.”
There was a sudden tinge of ozone in the air. “Do you think Their Grace has abandoned Their beloved? Come now, do you really wish to test that assumption?”
Another voice joined the conversation, one that had remained calm through the developing argument. “Now now,” Shikanoin Heizou looked up from his pile of snacks, “both of you back off; no sense in wasting your breath on each other. The Truth and Light can have more than one favorite, can’t They?”
Yae spared a glare his way. “Such a thing is easy to say for a simple mind that demands all of Their attention. Do you think no one found it odd that a certain someone necessitated a new set of artifacts? I just wonder what might possess a mind like that to claim that they ‘could not resonate’ with a set of artifacts that worked exceptionally well for everyone before them. Quite curious indeed.”
“For your information–”
The grand doors at the end of the hall slid open, revealing a simply-dressed attendant. The room quickly hushed, sitting attentively to the announcements she would proclaim on Their behalf. She took a seat at the end of the table, not hiding her discomfort in being near Yae and Ayato.
She cleared her throat as she straightened out the papers in her hand. “Their grace has again accepted our offerings and has given our nation new orders for training and improvement of Their favored. Those from Inazuma include the prestanding…” she hesitated, “Shikanoin Heizou and Thoma.”
The mood in the room darkened. “…And?” Ayato asked.
Yae leaned in. “Who else?”
The attendant seemed scared of what she was about to say. “Alongside the two newcomers…”
“Newcomers.” The word slid off her tongue dripping with disgust.
“Well,” Ayato asked, “who are they?”
At that moment, the other, less impressive, set of doors slammed open. Everyone turned to look at the intruders to the reading of their Creator’s guidance. Silhouetted in the doorway was a broad, muscled wall of a person whose overcoat was flung open. Red lines traced his body ending at two crimson horns, stark against his white hair.
A great voice boomed through the room. “Guess which Oni finally had their dream about that golden comet! That’s right, Arataki ‘The One and Oni’, ‘Numero Uno’ Itto! Here to take his rightful place alongside all the other Vision holders atop Inazuma City and serve That Big One Above The Sky!”
A tired voice behind him spoke up. “Boss…”
Itto quickly pulled a person from behind him up to his side, rambling through his next sentences quickly. “–Alongside the Deputy Assistant of the Arataki Gang, Kuki Shinobu! Who had her dream of the violet comet just last night. And who would also very much like to work for Them.”
As the guards escorting the two interlopers pushed them into the room and gently guided them to their seats, the rest of the room turned their eyes to the attendant in disbelief. She struggled to meet any of their gazes, choosing instead to bury her head in the paper she held. “The two newcomers are… Arataki Itto and Kuki Shinobu.”
The reactions were… less than ideal.
Most of the people in the room were venting their frustrations at each other or at the attendant, in complete disbelief that the Guarantor of Eternity would choose, much less give an iota of attention, towards the braggart oaf of Inazuma. But two people in the crowd aimed their frustrations at a specific target.
“Curious,” Yae Miko glowered at the newest members of the team, “I thought Their Grace only bothered to call upon their servants who had more than a handful of sense in their skulls.”
“Yes,” Ayato continued. “I thought our Undying Light chose only the best and brightest, but They must certainly be taking pity on the… less-deserving.”
“Ah, you know,” Itto shrugged, “felt like a coin toss whether you get picked or not. I guess I won this time! And hey,” his tone began to sharpen, “perhaps They just wanted someone that didn’t complain about others all the time and who can actually, you know, care about other people? They’re more than just the god of being high-and-mighty.”
“Boss,” Shinobu grabbed his attention. “They’re jealous and trying to get a rise out of you. Deep Peal’s had Their hands full and the flunkies are upset that They’re not paying attention to them. Let them huff and be upset all they want, you and I are the ones getting attention.”
“Oh, I see…” He turned back to the two insufferable Vision-wielders. “So is it true? You two just have your underwear in a twist over nothing?”
“Boss!”
“My,” Yae cut in, “what an observant little weasel. I wonder which of us Electro users might actually be of use to Their Grace. A priest hundreds of years in training, or a little runaway who can’t bear to show her face and true colors.”
“Hey,” Itto stood up quickly, partially shoving the table back, “back off! You clearly don’t prove that age makes you better, you hag! Memory serves, I was the one who won our little competition while you called it quits! So clearly, the Head Honcho prefers someone with a little staying power.”
Ayato raised an eyebrow. “This coming from the Oni who was laid out for weeks? Yes, excellent display of constitution, there.”
“You too? Alright, bring it! Both of you, right now, I’ll prove I can–!”
A great, snarling peal of thunder broke through all the noise, drowning out every voice in the room, rattling the walls and windows, reverberating inside the chests of all gathered. Everyone froze, the thunder continuing to roll as the seconds dragged on. When it finally subsided, the room hung deathly silent as few seemed willing to make another sound.
The attendant cleared her throat. “…Shall we move to the next bullet on the agenda?”

Yes! This is absolutely wonderful!
Guys. What if the Tsaritsa was like “The Harbingers need to be a team at all costs, so I order all of you to some team-building excercises” and forces her Harbinger-children to choose some activities they want (”want”) to do together
….and after much arguing and attempts from Childe to talk them into weekly sparring-matches, they decide on playing DnD together. With the Tsaritsa herself being the DM
(pls dnd-side of tumblr, be nice to me- all of my dnd-knowledge comes from watching dnd youtube and listening to my dnd-playing friends-)
The first few sessions are an absolute nightmare cause all of the Harbingers are still in the mindset of “This is stupid, how does playing this…. childish board-game help us steal the gnoses and overthrow celestia?!” ….but after two months or so, the Tsaritsa is very pleased to see no one cancelling their weekly sessions anymore and showing up with all their character sheets and their own dice
Not because they’re having fun, of course! That would be immature…. no, they’re only doing this for her Majesty and her noble cause….! Uh, anyways….
Just…. imagine. A table full of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers, her Majesty the Cryo-Archon herself, surrounded by character-sheets, minis, dice and junkfood. And the DnD-sessions get INTENSE-
You’ve got:
-Childe, playing a Barbarian/Fighter multiclass (even though they don’t mix well- boy saw two battle-focused classes and wasn’t interested in anything else). Being the theatre-loving dork he is, he’s VERY into the whole roleplaying-aspect. He says “But it’s what my character would do” around 50 times every single session, maybe he even starts showing up in cosplay just to REALLY get into the mindset of a barbarian fighter. ….maybe his background is that of a humble fisherman who’s searching for his lost family, being the family-man he is
-Scaramouche with a Rogue, cause he was vERY drawn to the whole stealth and trickery-thing…. the Tsaritsa was overjoyed, seeing her Sixth choose a class that he felt a connection to and was looking forward to how he’d use stealth and his own intelligence to overcome obstacles… only problem, it’s Scaramouche. So he didn’t put any points into stealth, instead only intimidation and charisma. Y’all know that iconic “YOU DO NOT SEE GROG!!”-tumblr post? Yeah, that’s Scaramouche. Every time he’s asked to do a stealth-check, he just yells out “YOU DO NOT SEE SCARAMOUCHE” or some shit like that.
Tsaritsa: The guards have caught up to you, leaving you with no option to slip away. What do you do?
Scara: I turn into a tree.
Tsaritsa: …..what? You don’t know any shapeshifting.
Scara: Well, can I convince them that I’m just a humble tree?
Tsaritsa, pinching the bridge of her nose: Roll for it
Scara, rolling a Nat20:
Tsaritsa, deep sigh: The guards throw a glimpse in your direction, mumbling amongst themselves how much brighter the room looks with the addition of the new tree.
-Dottore, playing a Cleric, aka the party-healer. Every Harbinger wasn’t impressed at the thought of the batshit insane doctor being their healer. And boy…. Dottore did NOT disappoint: His character doesn’t know a single healing spell or anything of that sort. Instead, they’re a dropout that only knows necromancy. Meaning if anyone in the party gets hurt, no matter how tiny of a injury it is, Dottore’s character will straight-up unalive them and resurrect them. He’s the embodiment of “I didn’t get my medical license revoked for nothing”
-La Signora plays a Scorcerer. She’s pretty much the only player who takes the game serious, even her character’s like the handbook-version of a Scorcerer. ….asides from fireball. Every time she casts fireball, her character just throws a molotov cocktail. If any Harbinger dares to look at her funny, she just shrugs like “You expect me to use fire-magic? After what happened last time? Not gonna happen, sunshine.”
Every puzzle the Tsaritsa throws at them doesn’t involve any locked doors. The reason why? The first and last time she did, she had to sit there and listen to Scaramouche intimidate the door into opening itself.
Dottore probably built himself a pair of dice with ruin guard-parts, or some funky shit like this. they were banned, of course. not because they’re rigged, but because they had a tiny built-in laser that would just go off randomly. When asked why he would create something like this, Dottore just shrugged like “Well, I just thought it’d be nice to keep us alert.”
Pantalone just constantly tries to get rich, and he’s resorted to constantly opening like, the Tavern-version of a fast food chain everywhere they go. He managed to get the party so fuckin rich that the Tsaritsa had to incorporate inflation into her campaign to keep it balanced.
Pierro probably plays a bard or so, and the Tsaritsa was afraid he’d turn into the horny bard she’s read so much about while preparing for this whole project. But he’s Pierro, the Jester, the first Fatuus…. being just a horny bard is way too basic. He’s still constantly seducing everything in order for the party to get their way, but he’s doing it, like… classy. Like when a grandma calls her grandson handsome for doing her gardenwork or something like that.
Tsaritsa: ….My First… did you…. did you just…. tell the Mind Flayer, the vile creature who has trapped you in its lair for the past week, seperating your group with the goal to devour your brains…. that it’s “glowing”?
Pierro: Yes. Their youthful glow and well-groomed tentacles just strike respect and deep admiration into my heart.
Tsaritsa: ….*sigh* The Mind Flayer blushes, twirling its tentacles like a school girl might twirl her hair.
EDIT: The Harbingers have all been revealed now and in addition to this post…
-Pulchinella’s character is a chicken. Just a regular Chicken. It only has one attack that consists of flicking a single pebble with its beak… but the chicken is also the party monk and thus the pebble-flick does the most damage out of all of their characters. I just find the mental image hilarious of this short guy with round glasses and a beard, looking like some kinda elf-npc playing a chicken and watching with a shit-eating grin as said Chicken absolutely destroys mobs that Childe’s character is struggling with. Pulchinella, the fifth harbinger, the Rooster, hard-carrying his party with a ridiculously powerful chicken
-The Tsaritsa was starting to regret allowing Pulchinella to play a Chicken after having spent 20 minutes listening to her sixth and her fifth arguing about whether or not the chicken has to wear pants when the party was invited to a noble party. Pulchinella insisted that while it’s just a chicken, it does have proper manners (unlike a certain fighter/barbarian….) and wears a tiny pair of fitted pants, paid for by Pantalone’s tavern-business. Scaramouche on the other hand argued back that it’s just a fucking chicken, so a tiny lil bowtie around its neck is enough.
-Yes, these are two grown-ass men arguing about whether or not a chicken has to wear pants to attend a fancy party. These are her Harbingers, handpicked for the job, powerful individuals having been gifted godlike authority. Arguing over chickens.

Omg I love this version of reader so much! This is such an interesting idea!
Aye let's go em fucking down with a cold and I was doing the dishes when this came to me again. Istg i'll have 100 HC for this trope before the year ends
◍⁠•---•⁠◍
- imposter!SAGAU where reader is a very high ranking member from Special Forces who was recently dismissed from the army after a certain incident in the recent war
- their sister is actually the one who's addicted with genshin, and they play together once in a while
- obviously like certain characters like Zhongli, Childe, Xiao, Gorou, Sara, etc. as they are part of an army (or once part of an army) and has been in war(s)
- when they landed in dawn winery, they were very confused as they haven't really explored some areas yet and was instantly alert
- thought it was a simulation at first until they realized it's real (but is it?)
- reader is a very competent person so they mostly have the relevant information they needed in less than 3 days. as for how they navigated the areas they did, cloaks and face masks are really, really great disguises
- was shocked at first because they saw a statue of them beside Venti's and immediately went to the nearest blabbermouth to ask information - that is, angel's share
- meeting Diluc was a bit nerve-wracking, since guys a very competent man as well, but thanks to some accent that they did they got off the hook no problemo
- although irritating, six-fingers jose is a good source of information. Charles' a bit stingy though, good thing reader managed to snag a few pouches on their way to the tavern one of them is sucrose
- after paying for some information and meeting Kaeya, who, was an absolute fuckwad the whole time reader was trying to pry off information (he's pretty good though, they'll give him that) and stopping at an impassé, until a kind Rosaria told him to fuck off of the foreigner
- reader shall build Rosaria to max level when they get home
- asked if they can use the library, to which Kaeya explained that they can, but the price is high (several drinks and some information they managed to get from the game that they can tell without fucking up the timeline)
- the first thing Lisa asked of the reader was to remove their cloak and mask, in which the reader explained they can't deal with people and is very shy (god, his team would humiliate them if they've heard that) and surprisingly was very lenient and understandable with the situation (she can stop with the sultry voice tho, ugh)
- "Just don't go taking any book out, okay? Because if you did.."
- reader is a very competent soldier, so they know when to not start a fight. with a small nod, they've began reading books and found out that even tho they can't read the language, somehow the text are translating inside their head
- had to close the books for several times because damn, that felt fucking uncomfortable and some time to get used to. learned about thw whole creator thingy and honestly found it very cliche? cringy?
- will never admit they jumped in fright when they first heard ella growling tho
- 3 days after, a surprise came in the form of Razor, who, after meeting eyes with them, proceeded to sit right in front of them and stared, unblinking. he sniffed and suddenly his eyes grew large, signaling reader that their time in the library is up
- thanked Lisa properly (another character to max) and drag Razor off, the boy following quietly
- since reader is a very, very competent soldier, the clues are very easy to pick and form a conclusion: for some reason, they are the creator, and Razor's admittance that he could smell divine powers from them only fortified that conclusion
- emotional manipulation is not really their thing, but they had to do it for their safety
- "Razor, I need you to keep it a secret from everyone. Including your Lupical."
- poor boy was so confused, "Why?"
- "Because someone is after my life. If they learned that I'm here, there's a high possibility that they'd kill me." well they don't know if that's true but it's probably best to err at the side of caution during that point onwards. and oh boy, the scared face they received in return almost broke their heart. thankfully, Razor only nodded in return, eyes determined
- "Razor understands, Y-"
- "Please don't call me that."
- will live in the forest for a few days with Razor after that as reader procures supplies they'll need for their journey, just in time for the rumors to circle around that an impostor was heard going around Mondstadt wearing the face of their Creator
- reader's mind immediately went off to Kaeya, remembering their smirk when they left the tavern
- if Kaeya's living on Earth, he will be the first guy they'd recruit, is what reader thinks as they finished buying their necessities and leaving the City of Freedom
- with a last goodbye and a hug from Razor and his wolf family, the reader started their journey to Liyue, hoping to find some answers on how to get home

This is so funny! Loved this!
Stupid mid-class idea time eyyyy
Archons reaction to reader saying "bless you" unconsciously when they sneeze (assuming that's not already a thing there)
-
Venti:
• Is confused, but turns it into something flirty pretty quickly
• "No need for that, I'm always blessed in your presence, your grace~"
• He's not gonna ask the first time but, when his allergies start acting up cause you just had to stop and pet a stray cat, and he notices that you say it pretty much every time he sneezes—
• "Sooo, what exactly have I done to receive so many of the divine creators blessings?" There's a slightly nervous edge to his voice
• After you explain that you just do it on instinct because it was very common place where you're from, his nervousness turns to intrigue, then disappointment
• So, you weren't giving him your blessing?
• Tries not to let his disappointment be super evident, still is though
• Might actually start doing it back, but he's gonna be extra with it
• "May the all creator bless you, oh wait—"
• Can't help but giggle at himself whenever he does so and you give him the most deadpan expression
• If he does slip up and just say 'bless you', you get the opportunity to tease him back
• "Oh? A blessing from the powerful Anemo Archon Barbatos? How lucky I must be to receive such an honor."
• The first time you do it he'll immediately backtrack
• Granting a blessing to another person is kind of a way to display that you hold power over them, in a convoluted way—
• Practically trips over himself to clarify that no, he absolutely wasn't even implying that he has the right to bless you
• After he's a bit more comfortable (and nobody else is in the room) Venti will play up the sarcasm
• "Oh you're most welcome, very few blessings from the great Barbatos are even given out you know~"
• Very careful when using that sarcasm, he knows that if Zhongli heard him, he'd be given a glare sharp enough to cut through mountains, and might even be thrown into one himself-
• If he's feeling particularly starved of your praise, Venti might just seek out the nearest cat
• You won't ignore him then, right?
• "Venti, are you purposely triggering your allergies so I'll say 'Bless you'?"
• "..."
• "noooo—"
• Will deny it to his grave, but it's kind of obvious from the way he won't meet your eyes, as his own water from all the cat hair
-
Zhongli:
• "... Pardon?"
• You're... Giving him your blessing? What did he do to deserve that??
• "Oh sorry," You correct yourself, "Force of habit, that's what you say when somebody sneezes where I'm from."
• "???"
• Secretly chastising himself for not knowing that and looking like an idiot in front of you
• Starts asking you questions about how that came about, is your world full of Gods that have the ability to bestow blessings on each other?
• You could tell him it's related to the black plague, but then you'd have to explain that, to his great horror—
• And then you'd have to get into Christianity, and the idea of Monotheistic religions, and goddammit Zhongli, why do you have to ask so many questions
• A simple sneezes turns into a three hour convention on religious history, figures
• Can't stop the little flutters his heart does everytime you 'bless him', even when he knows the underlying reason
• Unintentionally picks it up as a habit and starts saying it too those around him (though not to you, because you're the one who's implied to be doing the blessing)
• Que the exact same 'The Geo Archon is blessing me?' confusion
• You may just have started a trend, though it's not as if it's the first time
-
Ei:
• Ei will immediately reply back with a very tentative "Thank you your grace...(?)"
• The type to either never question you and this is just the way things are now, or break down after the hundredth time and finally tell you she doesn't know what on earth she did to earn your blessing
• After you explained it to her, she's not going to question it much, humans have strange little traditions everywhere it seems
• Since it's a tradition of your world, would you like if it was also done here? She could arrange that for you
• You're gonna have to assure her that it's perfectly fine, you don't particularly care one way or another, it's just force of habit
• She can't decide whether she likes or dislike the fact that you do it
• Sure, it's nice to hear that the most important person in all of the land and skies considers her worthy enough for a blessing
• But you also do it to other people too
• She can tell herself there's no underlying meaning a million times over, but it won't change how she feels small bursts of jealousy when yet another person stumbles over themselves to thank you for such an honor

Awwwwwwww
NASTY WOUNDS
Kaeya, Venti, Tighnari, Scaramouche
In which you tend to their injuries and pamper them. Fem! Reader
cw: suggestive i guess, kissing, scars, mentions of blood
Tumblr media
1k words
"H-hey, at least let me finish patching you up first", you complained as Kaeya only continued to pepper kisses down your neck.
You were currently sat on his lap, bandaging the wound he came back with on his neck from the arrow of a hilichurl. You still couldn't fathom how a man as strong as him got hit by a mere arrow but anyways..
"You always patch up my wounds so I'm repaying you", I mean fair enough but couldn't he wait for at least a minute?!
Before you could even say anything else, Kaeya took your vacant hand and left slow kisses from your wrist up your arm, all the while gazing at your through his eyelashes. That signature smirk of his graced his lips.
You could only watch his lips work his way up your arm in nervousness.
"Why'd you stop?", Kaeya asked coyly, referring to how you stopped bandaging his neck.
You blinked a few times and snapped out of your daze-like trance, and averted your gaze away from him before climbing off his lap.
"Do it yourself", you huffed. You had no time for his silly antics today.
Kaeya in return grabbed your wrist and you fell into his arms. Instantly, you were enveloped in heat internally. Externally though, you were freezing.
"I was just teasing", he chuckled. "Seriously, thank you for always helping me".
"You're welcome..I guess", you rolled your eyes playfully.
Tumblr media
"Ouch Y/nnnn!", Venti whined, yanking his knee away from you and hugging his legs up to his chest, tears welling up in his eyes.
“I’ve barely even touched you! Next time don’t run around with a barrel over your head”, our renowned anemo archon right here took an empty barrel from Angel’s share that previously had a bunch of alcohol in it and went parading around the streets of Monstadt with it over his head.
Sometimes you genuinely don’t believe he’s one of the Seven..
“I was just having a bit of fun!”, Venti had made his way to the other side of the room, crouched in a corner so you wouldn’t touch his knee.
“And look where ‘fun’ got you, and would you come back here!!”, he was a big baby, that’s what he was.
“No, you’re gonna hit me”.
“I won’t”.
“Promise?”.
“Yes”.
He hesitantly got up, narrowing his eyes at you before he took his place back on the couch again.
Instantly, you brought a fist up to his head, earning a hiss of pain from Venti.
As he brought his hand up to his head to massage the area you hit, he furrowed his brows disapprovingly.
“You promised you wou—”.
“I bonked you. There’s a difference”, you said smugly before proceeding to clean his bleeding knee.
“You’re a bully Y/n”, Venti pouted.
“Aw, this bully was gonna give you hugs after, I guess not anymore”, you sighed, faking disappointment which prompted Venti to unfold his arms and shake your shoulders.
“Wait, I was just kidding, you’re an angel!”.
Tumblr media
“I’m sorry”, you apologised for the nth time in the last five minutes.
Earlier, you were trying to concoct the medicine for Collei that Tighnari usually did himself but you were aware he had a lot on his shoulder so you wanted to help.
Unfortunately you did the exact opposite when the medicine fell to the floor, breaking the glass bowl it was in too.
You panicked, quickly cleaned the spillage and sweeped up the glass shards..unbeknownst to you that you missed a few shards…so you can guess who walked in a few hours later and stepped on them.
“Maybe if you listened when I told you to stay away from the glass objects in here..”, he trailed off, watching as you worked to take the shards out of his foot with tweezers.
“I was just trying to help, you seem stressed lately”.
“I appreciate you trying to help but as i’ve said, I can do it myself”, he huffed.
After that, he just sat there and mumbled incoherent words under his breath. He was trying to keep you out of harms way but how could he do that if you don’t listen to his instructions?
You knew just the thing that’d cheer him up.
You got up from the floor and made your way onto his laps, massaging his ears sensually. Scratching them at just the right places made Tighnari let out a small whimper and cover his furiously blushing face with the palm of his hand.
“I’m sorry, you want me to stop?”, you asked, faking innocence and moving your hand to caress his cheek. You knew fully well that he was enjoying your touch and he knew you knew too.
Tighnari moved your hand up to his ears again and gave in to your fake act. “No, don’t stop”, his voice just under a whisper.
You laughed lightly, cupping his cheeks. “You melt so fast when I touch your ears”, climbing off his lap, you sat back down on the floor, much to Tighnari’s disappointment.
“Too bad I have to clean your wound first”, you snickered.
He’d surely get you back for that one.
Tumblr media
“I don’t need your help”, Scaramouche irked as he swatted your hands away from him and began to walk off without you.
“Oh? Is that so?”, you nudged him in the abdomen which caused him to hold his stomach and hiss in pain.
You urged him to sit down against the tree so you could at least look at it, and he eventually did so.
“Now strip”.
“Excuse me?”
“If you would be so kind as to take of your top, I would be ever so grateful Mr. Balladeer sir…that better for you?”.
Scaramouche rolled his eyes at you and took off his hat before taking off his top, revealing his slender stomach littered with scars.
Your eyes widened. You didn’t expect there to be so much of them yet you subconsciously brought your hand to touch them at which Scaramouche stopped you by grabbing your wrist.
“Just..clean the wound and get it over with”.
You apologised and got to cleaning it and once you finished, he went to grab his shirt when he suddenly felt a warm sensation on his abdomen.
It was your lips working to kiss every single scar etched on his skin.
“Your scars..they’re pretty”.
He was taken aback. No one had ever called his scars pretty before.
“…Really?”.
masterlist :)
A/N: Can’t spell Scaramouche without scar 😉

scenario:
in a domain with endless routes and pathways, with puzzles that could pass off as the work of lesser lord kusanali herself, you and [char.] had quite a lot ahead of you. while [char.] was focused on reading a scripture on the wall, you were fiddling with a complicated contraption.
a few taps on the device and nothing had seemed to have happened, with a sigh you turned your attention onto the surroundings. while you were focused on examining what’s ahead of you, three specters and a dendro samachurl sneaked up behind you. your focus was suddenly interrupted as you felt vines touch your legs. with a shriek and an increase in your heartbeat you ran towards [char.], hugging their waist and hiding your face on their back.
LUMINE — 荧
freezes up for a good moment before noticing the problem. she quickly returned the hug and dealt with the mobs with the grace of a seasoned adventurer, returning to you with a smile on her face. “are you alright? did you get hurt?” she scanned your body for any wounds. “nope,” you once again latched onto her, “how could i get hurt when i have my lovely and strong traveler with me~” while your heart might’ve calmed down from the surprise attack earlier, you could hear lumine’s heart quicken and the blush on her cheeks darken. “paimon feels like she’s interrupting something..” you let go of the embrace, paimon was staring at you two with playful disgust. “does paimon want some love too?” you coo at her. “nono!! paimons fine! EHH stop chasing me!!”
DEHYA — 迪希雅
her ears were perked up ever since she heard your shriek, it was very difficult for dehya to simply ignore it but you constantly reminded her that no matter what ‘you’d be able to take care of yourself’ and that ‘she shouldn’t worry’. perhaps this is one of those times she should have worried because with your jittery hug she instantly knew something was wrong — and with one sharp glance at the room, she figured out what the issue was. though she struggled on whether to just leave you there or hide you, she reminded herself that you aren’t that weak so instead she focused her attention on dealing with the creatures who dared to scare you. “you’re fine right, my lil’ warrior?”
AYATO — 神里绫人
tenses up for a second then laughs, gently grabbing your arms as he twists around to face you, placing them back on his waist. “what’s happened, my love?” his voice sounded like he was teasing you but his eyes held genuine worry. you looked up at him, finally calmed from the fright, “sorry i just got a bit scared, they came out of nowhere.” his gaze follows yours to the group of monsters. “ahaha, worry not my dear. so, would you like to take care of them with me? or would you rather cling to me instead? i wouldn’t mind.” he pinched your cheek. with an eye roll from you and a chuckle from ayato, you both got into positions. the fight was short, and at the end ayato couldn’t help but pull you in for a side hug to place a kiss on your temple.
XIAO — 魈
he’s very unfazed, already quite used to your affectionate nature and it’s not as if he opposes it. he thought this might be one of your silly antics again however that was quickly invalidated by the way he felt your uneven breathing on his back. it was like some sort of instinct for him, with ease he slid your hands off to handle the monsters, leaving you once again surprised with how fast he figured out was wrong. xiao didn’t like wasting time especially when it comes to your safety, you’re absolutely his main priority. he was hesitant but he asked, “w..why didn’t you just call my name?” his gaze was averted from yours. “i was too surprised so i just thought of running away instead, sorry xiao next time i’ll call for you.” you smiled, placing your hand on his cheek. he left a quick kiss on your forehead before fleeing just as fast out of sheer embarrassment.
VENTI — 温迪
absolutely adores you and your touch so he doesn’t find it out of the ordinary, that is until he felt a spit of water on the back of his head. you’ve never seen venti turn around so quickly before. “the audacity!!” he huffed, crossing his arms in annoyance. you couldn’t help but laugh at venti’s face as you begin fighting side by side, venti consistently throwing out nasty yet still rather harmless insults at the creatures. it was an easy victory of course, even more so for you as venti began to cling on to your arm, loudly complaining; “how dare those stupid little mobs attack me!! so rude.. but,” he switched to hugging your waist to gaze up into your eyes, “are you alright windblume? you seemed pretty frightened earlier” you nodded and he smiled littering your face with kisses.
YAE MIKO — 八重神子
“my my, can’t keep your hands off of me even for a second can you, darling?” her eyes shifted towards you and with a teasing smile she turned around to tighten and return the hug. “uhm miko, there’s-“ you began but yae miko hushed you flashing you a close eyed grin which radiated nothing but mischief. although you couldn’t see anything going on behind you, you could perfectly hear the sound of lightning accompanied with short shrieks and cries. “running to me because of a silly surprise attack? you amuse me, my dear. yet i’m glad my arms are your safest place.” she admitted. tilting your head up to kiss your cheek teasingly before alas giving you a sweet kiss on your lips.
ITTO — 荒泷一斗
truth be told when he heard you shriek his flight or fight response kicked in. ‘do i run and let my strong capable s/o handle it or do i help like a good boyfriend’ was his current dilemma. but when he felt your arms tighten around his waist he couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride and confidence — which was then swiftly replaced with fear as he also got surprise attacked by the mobs. like the uhm, lovable moron he is he hid behind you. you laughed and inwardly cursed him but fought them off yourself as itto cheered you on in the back. “see!! i knew my powerful s/o could get rid of those guys with ease!! obviously i could do the same thing but you know ahaa i just you know didn’t wanna-“ he rambled on until you forcefully shut him up with a loving yet fierce kiss.
AETHER — 空
“are you okay? sorry usually this doesn’t take that long, you can rest for a while if you’re feeling tired.” aether always puts your well-being above his no matter his own condition yet sometimes he can get distracted and leave you fending off by yourself (he will always apologise afterwards). unfortunately, he was currently distracted… bless paimon’s heart because she had to be the one to point out the hoard of enemies that was heading in your direction. aether’s eyed widened for a moment before sighing. he patted your head and whispered, “you can join in if you’d like, don’t force yourself.” he pecked your cheek. you couldn’t help but smile at how sweet he was despite all the trouble he’s been through. he returned to you with a gentle smile on his face, giving you a tight hug. “heeey!! why can’t paimon get a hug too?” i helped out too didnt i? hmph.” aether and you laughed, pulling paimon in the hug too.
KAEYA — 凯亚
a little surprised at first but welcomes it even so. “hello to you too sweetheart, we haven’t been apart for that long and you’re already wanting my attention? how greedy,” he put his arms around you , tightening the hug “but i love it when you’re greedy for me.” he gave you a chaste kiss. of course he knew what was coming after the two of you, but he really couldn’t care less you both would deal with it in a matter of time anyway. and that you did! not without kaeya teasing you throughout however. “you got scared and your first instinct was to come to me? how charming, my love.” he doesn’t want to admit it, but the thought of you seeking safety in him leaves him flustered and warm inside.
BEIDOU — 北斗
“hey honey, i’m just trying to figure out what this could mean..” she ruffles your head absentmindedly, not sparing you a glance. that was until she felt your arms shakily leave her waist. with such an unusual response from you, she turned around and at last noticed what was the cause of your shriek earlier. it didn’t take much time before she swiped the enemies clean, running back to you to hold you in her arms. “i’m glad i bring you some comfort, love.” she chuckled, cupping your face with a grin to give you a peck on the lips.

ft.: aether, diluc, venti, jean, kaeya
a/n: ik there's so much of these isekai / sagau serieses already but one more couldn't hurt <3 EXCITED AB THIS!! pls tell me ur feelings hehe

Diluc looked up in surprise as he heard the door to his office swing open. He wasn't expecting anyone, not to mention how forcefully the door was pushed.
Oh, it was the Traveller, accompanied by his usually unusual companions whom he chose to ignore. Plus, the jerky randomness in the party's movements showed that it was obviously the All Creator in control currently.
“Traveller, what brings you here at this hour?”
It was 2 in the morning.
Aether walked up to a book that was on his desk. Mild dread started to pool in his stomach, something was off.
“The Legend Of Creation? What's this about?” Paimon, who usually spoke for the Traveller when he was being controlled, asked.
They weren't supposed to have the ability to see that. Not when the All Creator was in control anyway.
He wanted to say something along the lines of, ‘just a children's bedtime story’, yet speech engraved in his core overrided his consciousness. “I'm surprised you haven't heard of the All Creator by now. You may read the book, it'll tell you more.”
“Ooooh,” Paimon squealed, “Let's read it!”
Yet as soon as his fingers brushed against the book's cover, the Traveller shuddered violently, eyes glowing white, before collapsing onto the ground.
[ On the other end of the screen... ]
You clicked on the mysterious book titled “A Legend Of Creation”.
You had visited Diluc's office just for kicks and giggles, yet you hadn't expected to see him there. You assumed it was an easter egg or hidden quest, but instead heard about some ‘All Creator’?
Either way, anticipation stewed inside you as the book started to load what seemed to be a cutscene. Ooh, what could it be?
But it wasn't a cutscene. It was a blank white page, with only the loading bar at the bottom of the page. It read, ‘Transfer 1%’.
You tapped on your screen a few times. The loading bar stayed at 1%. What the hell?
You left the game, refreshed, then clicked the Paimon icon again. It only showed a white screen before kicking you back out.
Genshin, what the hell?
You checked the clock on your phone. 2:14. Ah, you suppose it was getting late. You should head to bed now.
Hopefully genshin would cooperate and work the next day...
Transfer 2%
Tumblr media
A blinding flash of light jerks you awake. An unpleasant sourness lingers at the back of your mouth. You shiver, was the air-con turned on too high last night? And why was your back... damp?
You jolt upright. Grass. Giant tree. Grass. Flowers. WHERE ARE YOU????
You back up against the tree, pushing away some sunsettias as you did. Wait. Sunsettias? Wait. Giant... tree...?
Forcing your legs, which seem to have become unresponsive, to stand, you walk around the giant tree to see...
A Statue of The Seven.
You blink. Then you huff. You never knew you had the main character syndrome. You read too much fanfiction, they say, you're too obsessed with genshin, they say. Hmph, guess who just got isekai'd into their favourite game? Not them! Hah. A silly grin stretches across your face.
Well, first thing on the agenda was probably to regain your bearings. You still had the clothes you were wearing the previous night on, which would look odd in Teyvat. You had to get a change of clothes then. Other than that, you literally have nothing but the clothes on your back.
Hm... It wouldn't be a long walk from Windrise to Monstadt. You could claim you were another outlander like Aether. Hold on, what timezone were you even in right now?
You studied the Statue. It looked fully repaired, so either you were in the past before it started to decay, or you were in present time of the game, as you had only maxed out the Statue a week ago.
Hmm... Would you get powers if you touched the Statue, like Aether did? You pressed your palm on the star of the Statue, just the check. Nope. You sniff. You were a normal human, then.
You looked into the horizon, in the direction of Mond. Getting there would take awhile.
“Well look who we have here!”
You turn toward the voice, and just as you guessed, it was Venti, sitting on a branch. He waved cheerily, swinging his feet back and forth a few times before hopping off, landing on the floor with a soft thud.
“Venti! Wait— how long have you been there?”
A gentle gust of wind tickles your back, and you're met with Venti's grinning face. “Not very long — a little birdy informed me of your arrival, so I came to check on you!”
“Do you know me? You don't seem surprised that I know you, too.”
Venti lets out a long ‘hmm’, followed by an ‘ehe’. He beams. “How should I put this? Oh yea, everyone knows you! You're the Creator's little Gift!”
Creator again? What was up with this Creator person? And you weren't anyone's gift!
“You must be confused, perhaps your memories are a little fuzzy right now? Not to worry! I'll explain more when we get back to Monstadt, I'm sure you'd rather we talk somewhere more... fancy to suit your tastes.”
Venti twirls his cape with a little flourish, and takes a small bow. He makes a sweeping gesture with his hand, and a gust of wind literally sweeps you off your feet.
Before you can even say anything, you land on hard floor gently, Venti still by your side. You're in a small alley somewhere in Mondstadt, hidden from public view.
“Woah,” you blurt out, “If only you could teleport in game...”
“In game?” he asks, eyes twinkling.
You double back. “Nothing, uh.. just the slip of tongue.”
He only laughs in reply.
“Anyway, you wanted to learn about the All-Creator, yes?” After you nod in affirmation, he continues, “Jean’s office has the most extensive and accurate collection of the gods, so we'll head there! Of course, Zhongli is the best knowlegde source, but I don’t think you'd enjoy getting your ear talked off.”
You chuckle. That was probably true. Still, you'd wanna meet the peepaw himself one day.
“The Headquarters is right up the flight of stairs, c'mon now!”
Tumblr media
“I am so confused right now — am I dreaming?”
It was ironic, really. you immediately accepted waking up in a game, yet had doubts about the game revealing an unknown, mega god. Genshin was surely intriguing.
Jean pats your shoulder sympathetically. “I know it's a lot to take in, considering you've lost your memory, but it's true.”
“So you're saying there's this god, who made all of you, like the teyvat version of God, and that they're of higher power than all the other Archons — even Celestia?”
“Mhm,” Venti chimes in.
“That you know I'm this god's gift or whatever, because they've been controlling the Traveller and other vision weilders to solve Teyvat's problems — and I look exactly like the All Creator?”
“That is correct.”
So. Self aware characters who are half right. Wow. It would probably blow their minds to find out they're actually in a game though, so best play along with their beliefs.
“What's next?” you ask Jean. You add on helpfully, “What do I do now?”
“We'll have to announce your arrival to the people and the other nations, but other than that, you're pretty free. Some might insist on some fanfare and extravaganza to celebrate you, though.”
“Will it be very extreme?”
“While we do worship the All Creator, many are moving on from their faith to the gods. Liyue, for example, doesn't even have an Archon that governs them anymore,” Jean continues, “You might be treated with more... awe and such that comes associated with being in relation to the All Creator, but I believe you'll be able to live rather peacefully here—”
SLAM. No sooner than had she said that, her office door flung open to reveal a very, very flustered knight.
“What's the matter?” Jean asks immediately, a frown creasing her forehead.
The knight huffs and puffs for a painful moment, before gritting out, “Long story short — people know of the Creator's Gem being transported here, and a whole mob's gathered outside right now.”
As if to underline his point, a large chorus of indiscernable yells began to echo from outside.
Jean sighs. “This was to be kept confidential. Who leaked this information?”
[ A little while later ]
“We're sorry... Paimon must've been a little too loud because she was very excited,” Paimon apologizes sheepishly toward an exhausted Jean.
She had just returned from trying to get the giant crowd outside to settle down and prevent the information from leaking any further. Then, the Aether had come in carrying a huge diamond like stone, which was set on Jean's table right now. It levitated off the desk slightly, emitting an ethereal light, and seemed to be made of every colour yet none at all.
What was it? The longer you looked at it, the more the curiosity festered and grew... It wouldn't hurt to touch it, would it? Just one touch, it looked so intriguing, so intricate...
SLAM. Gah, just how many knights were going to barge in the office like this?
It wasn't a knight. In fact...
“Ah, Master Diluc! What brings you here?”
“I heard about the commotion here, so I thought I'd see for myself,” he replies loftily, glancing at the gem and you.
Diluc. It was Diluc. Diluc. Diluc!!!! Oh my gosh ohmygoshohmygosh—
SLAM. Let me guess... It was Kaeya at the door.
And you were right.
“My, my, and you all thought you could do this without me. I see my dear brother's already here.”
If that was Diluc being aloof, now he was full on freezing. Who knew a Pyro allogene could be so cold? The daggers he threw with his eyes could have killed a normal man.
Kaeya only smirked.
“So... Will someone explain what that gem is for?”
You silently thanked Paimon for relieving the tension. It was so thick even scissors couldn't cut through it.
“Right, yes,” Jean sighs in part relief, and everyone's attention is directed at the stone, which was now pulsating with light.
“The Creator's Gem is bore at the deepest roots of the Irminsul. It's prophesied to hold a dear object that will help the Creator's gift when they descend, and only that person can retrieve what's inside.”
“So, do I just... touch it?” you ask, staring at the brilliant gem in a new light.
“Not now,” Diluc interjects, “There'll be an official ceremony for it.”
“Wait. Wouldn't it be very awkward if it turns out the Gift over here isn't the Gift?” Paimon points out.
You could feel everyone come to one collective conclusion;
Oh shit.
