Insecure
Angsty neuvillette x reader
Short Drabble
=====================================
Silent sobs left your quivering lips as you tried to mutter out a sentence.
âIâm afraid of a lot of things, but mostly, most sincerely, I am afraid of being completely unraveled by you, and you not finding what you want in here.â
Your insecurities had entirely consumed you from the inside out until eventually you broke, falling apart completely in front of your love.
Your sobs and expressions had his heart breaking, just as fragile glass would break apart at the slightest touch.
You had made him so vulnerable, so fragile. It was terrifying yet so beautiful, you made him feel so many wonderful things, which is why he couldnât understand how you were so oblivious to the effect you had on him. To the tight grasp you had on his fragile heart.
âMy darling, you are the most wonderful, kindest, passionate, caring, and extraordinary being I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. You have never been anything less.â
Your sobs donât subside, rather they increase due to his heartfelt words. You didnât deserve such kindness, you didnât deserve his heart, his love.
âI could list a great number of things I love and adore about you.â
âAnd if I asked you to name all the things that you love, how long would it take for you to name yourself?â
The thunderous voices that consumed your mind had suddenly began to fade away until the only sounds you could hear were the sniffled breathes you let out and your speeding heart beat.
This man loved you for everything you had to offer, the ugly, the pretty, the bad and the good. He wanted to be there for it all and to be by your side whole heartedly and completely.

Memories not forgotten
Zhongli fluff post- contains memory loss and angsty topics. But overall cute I promise >.<
Not proofread
â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘â˘
Moments forgotten in the span of only of few minutes, seconds, and sometimes even instantly. This was the curse you bore when you were graced into this world. Simply unable to remember the most important or cherished moments of your long life.
You used to sulk in the melancholy of your life and how it will forever be the way that it is. But as you grew older- wiser, and since matured; youâve realized that worrying over things you wonât even remember being a worry- was not worth it. Instead youâd allow yourself to live, forget, and live again.
It was sometimes a beautiful experience. Youâd see such beautiful iridescent flowers or the pink Sakura trees and their falling leaves that wowed you the moment you laid your eyes upon them. And youâd continue to feel that awe forever as the memory of that âfirstâ encounter fades each time.
Other times it was truly a reminder of what a curse you had. Just as simple as when you meet wonderful people and hear their stories. Forgotten. Taking tasks from others or previous jobs and commissions. All Forgotten. Not to mention the burden you had become to your own family and friends, constantly having to be monitored and treated like a sickly child.
However, there was one person who treated you like any other being. Treated you normally as if you werenât burdened with an illness. Constantly asking you questions and having beautiful conversations with you even if they were already had a dozen times before. He was sweet beyond all accords. He was a diligent listener and an even better storyteller. Heâd often ramble on about his past memories and experiences, sometimes even speaking about the things he noticed and admired on his walk here. His kindness and attentiveness to you had not gone unseen. Youâd thank him almost every conversation for the way he noticed you so simply. Heâd kindly reply âof course, it is a great pleasure to have these conversations with youâ ever time. At least you assumed it was every time.
As you and zhongli became more aquatinted, heâd make an effort for you to take the special medications he had made for you. His broad knowledge of this world and substances was quite large, so it was no surprise that he knew of some potions or herbal medications that would help you retain your memory even for alittle bit longer.
He mentioned that he had the assistance of his friends bazui and a far off aquatints named taighnari. With all their brilliant minds put together, they created a small herbal medicine that you would take 3 times a day- presumably for the rest of your life if you choose to.
You were relentless at first, to no ends would you be caught drinking this concoction hes created. But it was until zhongli had âexpressed his plead for your memory to strengthen so that way you could make some with him that youâd surely never forgetâ when you finally gave in and decided to put this medicine to the test.
It was slow at first, showing little to no sign of improvement on your memory functions. But after a few weeks and steady months, your memory was indeed developing and gaining strength. Youâd remember certain things for the entire day, sometimes even multiple days before they were swept away. Even so, even if the memories youâd make would vanish inevitable- holding on to them for even an entire day was more than youâd could ever wish for.
Youâd share the exciting news with your beloved zhongli and express how you were incredibly thankful to him. For he and truly changed your life.
âZHONGLIII! Can you BELIEVE IT??â You cheer excitedly whilst getting closer to zhongli.
âI am more than pleased that the medicine has been working. It truly brings me so much joy to see you happy.â He says with his usual stoic and gentle tone.
âI actually remember what I ate for dinner yesterday and AND I REMEMBER THE FLOWERS I SAW ON THE WALK HERE!â You continue to ramble on about all the things you could remember. It was all a shock and somewhat hard to take in, but with zhongliâs steady hand holding your waist gently before you could fall, you knew all would be okay.
âNow my dear I have a question, one I hope you will not forget to quickly.â Zhongli asks before facing you. He towers over you but not in an intimidating way, rather a protective yet observant kind.
âWould you like to make some memories with me?â His tone is serious and the way he outstretched his hand in reach for yours tells you and underlining message.
âHeâs been waiting for this moment for a while, oh my poor zhongli. Iâm sorry to have kept you waiting.â You think quietly to yourself before you take his hand.
âI would love to but..â you hesitate for a moment. âwhen I forget, It will only hurt you.. wouldnât it?â You were merely being honest. Inevitably you would forget the precious moments you hope to have with him. You wouldnât want him to go through that grief.
Especially knowing you wouldnât even recall the reason for it.
âNonsense. Being able to recite to you the memories we will make, the journey we will take- will be my greatest pleasure. Reciting the moments weâve shared will allow me to relive them, and I must say, watching the glimmer in your eyes as you realize the memories we share will be more than worth it.â
Zhongli continues on, explaining to you why no matter the curse you bare, you will never be a burden. You canât hurt him for your presence alone is a living memory of love.
And although you havent had many moments with your dearest zhongli on account of your memory. He loves you with his entire being. And will continue to remind you of that everyday.
You live, forget, and live again.
Except now, youâll be living and making memories along side the man who will never let you forget <3

Sunshine
Enjoy this angst/fluff about neuvillette <3
_______________________________________________
Sitting quietly at one of the many cafes in Fontaine was a daily occurrence for you. Youâd often enjoy a cup of tea whilst reading one of the many books you cherished- it was routine.
What wasnât so common was for it to suddenly down pour amongst the tranquil afternoon you were just enjoying before.
You didnât hate the rain- in fact you used to be so fond of it. That was before you moved here. Before you became so acquainted with a certain ludex.
With the realization of what the cause of the rain had been, you made haste to get to him quickly; Leaving some mora as a compensation for the inconvenience.
Striding swiftly towards the Opera Epiclese you were stopped by one of the many melusines that accompanied Fontain. She considerately offered you an umbrella whilst demanding you try not to make it habit to run in the rain unprotected. You smiled sweetly at her kind yet reprimanding comment and took the umbrella. With a quick thanks you continued onward- this time with some protection from the droplets that were falling from the sky. Oh how you hoped they werenât falling from his beautiful eyes too.
Please please, donât cry.
Finally you found him, standing silently outisde of the Opera Epiclese.
Letting the rain drench him whilst he looked completely lost in thought, hands slightly shaking at his side- you knew he wasnât okay.
as if the rain hadnât already made it so blatantly obvious.
You approached him carefully as to not startle him, making your presence known by calling his name softly from a few feet away.
âNeuvi?â
You finally made it beside him and couldnât help but reach a little higher so your newly gifted umbrella could shield him from the rain.
He stiffened slightly at your nickname for him- almost like he was caught in some embarrassing moment.
He relaxed a bit before turning to face you and immediately he felt a warmness inside as if the sun had appeared in the sky again. Your eyes had glimmered so delightfully, showing so much compassion and concern in just the way you squinted slightly.
You smiled up at him to show him you were here so it was okay now.
âHydro dragon, Hydro dragon- donât cryâ
A chant you often sung when it would rain heavily. But nowadays youâd find it better for him to embrace the emotions he bares- for they are what make him part of humanity. He had always struggled with understanding human emotions yet he portrays them so well. However âDealingâ with them was the hard part of his learning process. But since youâve been around, since becoming aquatinted- you have allowed him to feel these emotions to the fullest. Although One feeling you couldnât bare to see him sulk in was his sadness.
The many trials heâs had to endure recently have become burdensome and have even started to have their effect on his mental being. Neuvillette is known for being passionate about his job and never letting his feelings affect what needs to be done; but once the job is done- once the doors are closed- heâs left with his thoughts and the hollowness in his stomach. What a suffocating feeling indeed.
âYouâre going to catch a cold my dear.â He tells you whilst grabbing the umbrella from your hands and covering you both equally as he noticed you were only covering himself.
âAnd are you not?â You reply seriously with a sigh. âPlease neuvi, letâs go home and get you dried and changed.â You reach for his hand and give it a reassuring squeeze.
âYes dear. I am sorry you had to come find me like this.â He replies while stroking the back of your hand with his thumb ever so softly. He wore a sad expression that you couldnât bare to see.
You reach up and caress his cheek softly, wiping away the tears or drops of rain- you did not know which.
The crashing tides were unforgiving in life, for everyone and everything; but no matter, you would always be there to save him before allowing him to drown in those waters- in those unrelenting thoughts.
âMy love, do not apologize.â You kiss the corner of his mouth, gently and carefully. After doing so, You could taste the salty wetness on his cheek that confirmed he had indeed cried before you found him. Your heart broken at the thought.
You hold his face in your palm a little longer, gently rubbing his cheek. He leans in to your touch while slowly closing his eyes to embrace the feeling. His heart felt warm. Love and adoration danced inside his chest for you just from a simple gesture. As the rain came to a slow drizzle, the clouds started to part slightly revealing the sun ever so slightly.
He smiled.
You were the only one who was able to clear his mind so simply, you made him feel so safe, so heard. As long as he has known you, you have been the only person to have completely fill his heart. He never knew love and he never knew these emotions. It was all so foreign. But youâve shown him everything, youâve truly shown him the world and more.
You were the sunshine to his cloudy skyâs.
Oh how he loved you so.

My Beloved
A cute little fluff story~ enjoy
The ever lasting strong winds of mondstadt danced happily along the field where you laid.
Admiring the sky above as you always did, yearning the dream to someday be high above the clouds, you could admire everything from above just as you admired everything from below. A dream youâd hope would one day be fulfilled.
The field of grass you laid upon tickled your skin, each gust of wind carrying the scent of the flowers that accompanied. You felt at peace ; you felt safe.
You close your eyes as you take another deep breathe truly immersed in this tranquil feeling.
Suddenly a warm presence was upon you.
You knew this presence all too well. Fluttering your eyes open you are met with crimson locks and fair skin. His crimson red eyes simply admiring you; how silly.
âJoin me.â You ask simply while outstretching your arm above your body; still laying down- you reach out your hand- waiting for him to take it.
He simply nods and grabs your hand, beginning to lie down beside your smaller figure. Although Diluc wasnât too fond of the grass field caressing his body, heâd continue to do it forever so long he could do it with you.
Never letting his hand go, you begin to close your eyes again letting the sound of the wind, the feeling of the field, and Dilucâs warm presence take you back to your tranquil state of being. He caressed your hand with his thumb slowly and gently in a rhythmic pattern. He closed his eyes aswell and began to hum quietly.
Something not many people knew was that mondstadtâs beloved master Diluc loved to hum. Either the sweet tones of old songs from time or simply ones from his mind.
Heâd hum beautiful tunes that accompanied his deep voice, bringing a beautiful sound to the wind that carried all around you.
You loved it.
You smiled silently as you hear his song.
Your eyes fluttered open once again as you noticed he had stopped; why? Why did my beloved Diluc suddenly stop?
You questioned as you look over at him, only to see him admiring you once again. Asking him what was the matter, all he could reply with was-
âYouâre are breathtaking.â
He swore to the gods he was the luckiest to ever grace this world because he got to know you. Your presence alone brought this manâs burning heart to a steady flame that was calm enough to elicit the same warmth during spring. You allowed him to feel peace and calmness, you were his serenity.
His spring.
His love.
You smiled sweetly at him; squeezing his hand with yours. He brought your hand up to his lips to grace the back of your hand with a kiss.
âHow I love you my beloved. Thank you for allowing me to be here with you.â He said while giving one of his ever so rare smiles.
Oh how that never fails to fill your tummy with butterflies. As they dance along filling you with joy and the ever lasting feeling of warmth; you reply.
âmy Diluc, your love is contagious.â You giggled sweetly while closing your eyes once again.
âI love you.â
You both continue to lay on the grassy field for what felt like an eternity. Enjoying each-others presence and allowing the feelings you shared to shield you from the winds that would sometimes bring in hardships. Grateful for the gods; grateful they were able to give you this gift.
Thank you gods- I will cherish this for as long as I may live.
