> 行。 ( y e s )
> 不行 。( n o )

A door closed quietly as the sound of footsteps hitting the wooden floor entered the empty corridor. A certain boy with a familiar orange hue for hair sighed to himself, stretching as he felt his back crack. He shuffled around quietly, darting his eyes straight towards the living room as he saw those lovely sets of eyes meet his own ocean blue ones. Walking over, he slumped down into the cushions and stared forward at the embers of the fire slowly turning into nothing.
“Childe, what seems to be the matter? Long day?”
He felt a hand take his own, squeezing it gently as they played with the little dimples on the back of his rough, calloused hand. Childe let you do as he pleased, nodding his head as he rolled his eyes.
“We’re looking for the gnosis of Baal, but obviously, it’s proving to be difficult. She is very aggressive, after all. Not as easy as taking the anemo or geo one.” You just gave a soft hum of acknowledgement, which meant that he was open to rant as much as he would like. In times like these, when Childe was growing restless and the days were waning on him, you were actually quite thankful the boy liked to openly speak his mind.
“I don’t know if I want to be a harbinger anymore.”
Childe immediately knew your reaction by the way your hand suddenly stopped moving and your breathing became still. He glanced up, noticing the way your brain seemed to be buffering as your mouth was hung open. There was a moment of quiet between you two, making him worried as he elaborated quickly on his initial statement.
“I mean, think about it, love. You saw how hard it was to keep from Teucer! He thinks I’m some superhero, yet I have to do so much stuff behind his back! And not just him, but my entire family! I have enough money to buy my mother the farm she wants or my father the fishing shack he’s always wanted, but yet I have to keep my grand sum of Mora a secret as well! Do you know how hard it is? How hard is it to watch your family's house slowly fall apart and not be able to do what it takes to fix it? Just...” He caught his breath for a moment, looking exasperated as the dim light illuminated his face. Childe’s features, especially the eyebags and tousled hair, stood out now as he continued to rant. He clutched your hands into his, as if to reassure himself that you were there and alive. A simple reality check of sorts, but it made all the difference to him.
“I know she would come for my head if I suddenly was nowhere to be found. She would send all of the Harbingers out to come look for me and drag me back to work. I could even die...but…” He glanced up at you, sky blue eyes watering as he wrapped his arms around you tightly. You froze for a moment, but you gently rubbed his back and reassured him.
“Look at us. Look at how secret we have to be about our relationship. I can’t get married to you, can’t have a family with you, can’t even be seen holding hands with you outside! I want a future with you and I want to become the best version of myself with you by my side! If I stayed with the Harbingers, I risk losing you! And although I could gain the world…” He trailed off, hiding quietly in your neck as if he was a little kid. He felt vulnerable, his anxieties spilling out of his mouth before he could catch them.
“If you weren’t there with me, I would never find myself satisfied.” Childe told you simply. The night endured for a little longer, silence making its way in again before you spoke up.
“Then leave the Harbingers and let us make an escape.”
Childe tilted his head, coming out from the warmth of your skin and glancing up at you in surprise. He had thought you would oppose, struggle, argue with him all night about how his job was important or that he had a reputation to keep. It was easier said than done though. How exactly would he just leave the Harbingers? Would he have to do it in secret? No, that could risk him being caught much faster since he was known to make his presence known throughout Teyvat. Could he tell the Tsaritsa that he was not interested anymore? Hah! What a silly thought, surely he would be dead by daylight. You snapped him out of his thoughts with a simple kiss to the forehead and the soft feeling of your hands cupping his cheek. Childe leaned into the touch, holding your wrist loosely with his own hand.
No words were needed to know that no matter what, you were going to be by his side.
“Let’s get planning.”
A smile. A warm glow. A new adventure.
“Here goes nothing.”

Also. This thought has been stuck in my head for a while, but Pupper Gorou who doesn't like taking baths, who whines when it starts raining and he gets wet. And so that he won't become stinky, the Reader has to resort to bathing with him, putting toys into the water and using soaps with lots of bubbles so that he'll stay in there longer than two seconds.
The way that the cute vibe of this ask has such a stark contrast with the Zhongli one I just read 😭 but it's welcome after that rollercoaster of emotions omg
And yes yes yes!! I saw you post about this kjsnckajsdn
Think about how cute it would be if the reader washes his hair and his ears too 😭 like they carefully pour water on his head, making sure to not get any in his ears. How carefully they brush through his hair with their fingers, scratching his scalp lightly just the way Gorou likes. He's putty in their hands at the motions, humming happily. He doesn't even mind when you lather you shampoo in his hair either, not when it means he's gonna smell like you later <333

hihi how are you?
why hello dear anon. i’m doing alright, though, i have had many sleepless nights after doing a variety of classes for this week. hence, i still haven’t found time to write. it makes me a bit upset because i feel as if i am letting you all down. :( i do, however, have an albedo fic that’s basically done, just needs to be edited! please look forward to that. how are you yourself anon? :D

i apologize deeply for my absence. school is consuming a majority of my time, and i simply don't have the ability to sit down and write at the moment. however, i will get something out soon, most likely with albedo or getting started on my series. my inbox is free for requests or talking still as well.
on a side note, i'm in the middle of completing the second half of liyue's main story and if you were wondering, i chose to say that i liked mondstadt more than liyue in zhongli's face. though the man is quite...nice, and interesting, everyone in liyue is so uptight and on their high horse. it made me feel like an outsider and not welcomed (╥﹏╥). but that's just me, hah! the scenery though in liyue is gorgeous though! the golden leaves match my golden seelie. beautiful mountains, so little stamina. :')
have a lovely day,
一 hao。

Lookin at ur welcome post like "is this 'pleased to make your aquiantance ho ho 😌' fancy talk gonna continue or-" and i m glad it does. Godspeed my child
oh, why thank you! it would be quite unprofessional of me to act so...uncasual, as i am a librarian, hence why the fancy talk of sorts stays. but i fear that it does make me seem intimidating or uptight though, but that’s not true...is it? (>人<;)

i can’t stop rereading that Bennett one shot! it’s so good and the way you wrote bennett was accurate and really cute !!
i’m not sure if you feel comfortable writing genshin characters for now but if you are! can i request a scenario for bennett where him&his s/o are on an adventure
and he gets severely hurt so his s/o tends his wounds while kissing the injuries to “lessen the pain”
sorry that didn’t make sense but 😭i hope this request isn’t too cheesy or too much for you
Tumblr media
a page from the book of recollection.
[ p a g e 9 3 7 。]
authors note: here is your scenario anonymous traveler! thank you so much for sending in a request, it’s my first one actually! i had a pleasure writing it, and i hope i fulfilled it to the standard that you wanted out of me! if anything is wrong, i’ll be sure to correct it if you send in an ask. also, terribly sorry for lack of producing any writings or engagement of sorts. my sleep schedule is horrible (currently four am when writing this.) and it’s finals week this week, so i’m studying like a madman to maintain my grades. promise after this week, you’ll get some more writing. anyways, thanks for your patience and i hope you like it!
word count: 1,366.
tw: there is blood and wounds mentioned. nothing too graphic though, i’m not one for gore. other than that, soft hours and doting on your unlucky boyfriend!
request status at time of posting: open.
in which you needed to help the boy heal faster, so some doses of medicine were deemed necessary, of course.
would you like to read?
> 行。 ( y e s )

———
you and bennett had decided to take a journey out to liyue to have some time to adventure and also spend some time together as a couple.
considering bennett had lived most of his life in mondstadt, you decided you wanted him to see a change of scenery.
bennett was excited as well, and he would not stop talking to you about it for the week leading up to it.
“did you need to get your weapons repaired before we go?” 
“did you stock up on food?” 
“how high are the mountains in liyue?”
“are the leaves a golden mora color like everyone else says they are?
“are you forgetting anything?
he asked you the last question as he watched you sling on your backpack, putting your weapon on your back before you glanced over at him and smirked. 
you took him by his hand, gently intertwining yours with his.
his emerald green eyes glanced up at you, oblivious as he tilted his head
“course i’m not. now come on, adventure is waiting!”
and then you two were off!
bennett and yourself were trekking along the rolling hills, talking about anything and everything as you took some time to appreciate the nature surrounding the far edges of mondstadt.
here and there, a few slimes would show up, but they were easy enough to take down.
no enemies for a good chunk of traveling, actually.
but perhaps bennett’s bad luck had begun to kick in again as you two were about to settle in for the night.
you two had set up a small camp within the middle of a clearing, setting up a fire and slouching against the tent as you two would begin to let loose.
however, there was something off.
a small crunch in the distance.
you two paused your chit chat.
a yell that seemed to crescendo closer and closer towards you two.
suddenly, two arrows were fired from the distance…
...right into his shoulder and bicep.
you saw his face twist as he gasped, electricity protruding from the wound on his shoulder and jagged ice forming on the wound on his bicep as he froze for a second, as if he was paralyzed.
you felt your heart drop as you glanced at the multiple hilichurls and a mitachurl that were coming out of the trees and into the clearing.
you two were quickly surrounded, the enemies coming closer with a force unlike anything you’d seen before.
your anxiety skyrocketed as you saw crimson red trail along his exposed skin and wounds.
but along with your worry, you suddenly jumped right to your feet and felt your adrenaline pumping.
no one hurts your boyfriend and gets away with it.
bennett had never seen anything quite like it when you grabbed your weapon.
you caused a whole massacre.
you focused in, sprinting around as you slaughtered every single monster that was around. they disappeared within minutes, turning into practically ashes as they died to your hand.
you wiped your mouth, breathing heavily as you lowered your weapon and then turned back to your boyfriend.
he was sitting down now, having took out the bloodied arrows from his wounds and staring out at you.
“Y-Y/N…” he stuttered out quietly, watching as your body placed itself in front of him, your weapon dropped on the ground as you held your bag.
rummaging around, you began to ask him where it hurt the most, or if he had gotten any other wounds, or if he was feeling lightheaded.
he was unusually quiet, nodding or shaking his head at your inquiries, watching as you grabbed bandages and a rag.
as you examined his wounds, his eyes would be locked on you.
bennett was used to getting hurt. he was considered unlucky for a reason, he knew. but the effects of the electricity and ice causing extra damage were severe compared to normal wounds.
“this is going to hurt, honey. i’m sorry.”
you quickly began to clean the wounds and the areas around it, earning a hiss from him as he felt his eyes scrunch up and close.
tears streaked down his face as he hugged himself, hiccuping and shaking as he whimpered.
“y-y/n...it hurts...it hurts r-really badly. please, s-stop it…”
you paused for a moment as you put some pressure on his shoulder wound, wrapping it up and putting it in place as you let out a breath you didn’t know you were holding.
you knew what he had just wanted to explore and adventure into liyue with you.
and you knew he deserved so much better than what had just happened to ruin the moment and excitement he had built up.
so you decided to comfort him in the way you knew he liked the most.
you lowered your head down softly, pressing a very light and gentle kiss on top of the shoulder bandages.
bennett sniffles softly, looking down at you as you leaned up and smiled gently at him.
“consider the kisses like medicine. they’ll help the pain go away faster.”
he couldn’t help but crack a small, shaky grin at that, finding it humorous as he then felt you wrapping the bandages around his other wound.
once more, you pecked the bandages quietly, feeling the way his muscles would untense at your delicate touch.
you treated him as if he was a fragile cecilia flower, and if he was being honest, he loved the way you doted on him in the moment. even if it hurt.
looking up at his face, you noticed some scratches here and there from the monsters when you weren’t looking.
you quickly grabbed some smaller bandages, sticking a few on his face where needed before you cupped one of his cheeks.
your placed kisses all over his face: his forehead, his nose, both his cheeks, anywhere you could get a hold of.
and every tear that ran down his face or in the corner of his eyes was combated with a sweet peck from you.
his cheeks were a soft pink as you showered him with love.
he loved being the center of attention in private like this. and since you knew it too, it made his heart swell even more.
“let’s go to sleep, my little flame. your wounds will heal faster in combination with some rest.”
bennett felt like his insides would explode as you used the nickname and gently helped him up, shuffling over to the single, open sleeping bag.
but he quirked an eyebrow as he glanced around, looking for your own bag.
“where’s your sleeping bag?” he became even more confused as you did a small gasp.
“i suppose i have left it at home! guess we just have to share…~”
bennett paused for a moment before he put a hand on his hip and shook his head with his usual, solar beam of a smile. he was too naive to understand what you had meant.
“my bad luck is rubbing off on you, y/n!” he would joke with you as you two slipped underneath the covers.
you made sure he was covered and supported before you felt a tug at your hands. glancing up, he tilted his head.
“let’s cuddle and keep warm…you be big spoon this time. i like feeling protected by you.” bennett mumbled before he felt your hands gently weave around his waist, pulling his back carefully up against your chest.
he was a little heat warmer of sorts thanks to being a pyro user, so you gladly took the opportunity to snuggle in with him.
you were about to say something, but you could already hear his breathing slow and how he snored cutely every now and again. 
you supposed the arrows did more damage than you thought. 
plus, if he was sleeping, that was a good thing. he’d be back up and running in no time. 
semantics aside however, as long as you were here, you would make sure that nothing stood in between your lover and yourself ever again. 
(oh, and as for the sleeping bags?)
(that was on purpose.) 
(but...bennett doesnt need to know that. ;))

hello lovely traveler! :) i main bennett actually, as i’ve made him my dps and gave him the best sword. ^^” (i’m still very weak though in genshin haha, i’m not very strong ;;) i love bennett the most because he’s just so sweet and although he can be considered annoying, he’s quite strong in my opinion! still smiling through everything he had been through and keeping his head held high while still pursing his dreams is just admirable. o(^▽^)o

garden of cecilias ; III [zhongli x reader]
[ previous parts here ]
+ general notes: whew boy, i did it again. this was supposed to be no more than like 5 parts but i can’t promise that. i live for soft dragon boy zhongli now, sorry not sorry. this part introduces some angsty stuff as well. and, copying this from word butchered the formatting so only like 1/3 of it is indented. 
+ warnings: implied past physical abuse
III.
It was dawn, and everything seemed as normal. You’d risen, made yourself some breakfast, and everything was going according to plan until you realized what you’d completely forgotten about. There was no flickering tail or glittering eyes anywhere you’d been all morning. Zhongli was gone somewhere, and you felt your heart jump into your throat. You immediately deserted the kitchen table, racing outside. Before you could get very far, a tall figure without horns was headed up the road to you, stalking with a menacing look on his face.

—; it’s beginning to look a lot like christmas.
word count: 3.6k
pairing: razor/gn!reader; razor/traveler
genre: fluff
summary: « i remember… purple mentor say ‘mistletoe’ a big part of weihnachten. »
you looked at the plant in slight bewilderment, not quite sure what to make of this offering. it was cute.
« oh. »
razor stares expectantly at you as you watch him make no further attempt to move. you can’t help the laugh that escapes you, the banality of everything setting into your mind. or maybe you’re getting sleepy. you wonder: « do you know why, razor? »
a/n: secret santa secret santa secret santa anyway, this is my side of the secret santa gift for @absolutely-rational​—i chose to write a thing for razor, but i barely play the game and i haven’t met him or own him* or anything so i apologise if it’s a little ooc ,,,, merry christmas and happy holidays ^^
p.s. as the man who’s good at saying very little in way too many words, the length of this fic just exploded and it’s alot longer than what i wanted it to be dskljfsldkja
heads-up
i write dialogues in what i will call the french/european system? anyway, i see that it’s not the dialogue formatting that most english readers are accustomed to so i modified it slightly to be easier to understand basically dialogues will be within guillemets (« »), and words that are within the quotation marks but are italicised are actions and/or dialogue verbs.
hope that clears things out a bit and i hope you give me and my fic a chance :)

garden of cecilias ; II [zhongli x reader]
[ previous parts here ]
+ general notes: zhongli is more a dragon than a human in this fic And I Literally Do Not Care, i love him all the same.
II.
         You’d gotten used to stumbling around in the sheer darkness of the very first moments before the sun would rise. Flowers would need tending each and every day, and you’d left your bedroom, rubbing sleep out of your eyes and fighting back the grogginess the morning after you’d scared off the halfling. Zhongli. He had a name, apparently. You didn’t understand where he was living in the mountains or when he’d started lingering around your home, but no one had apparently seen him except you. It almost felt dream-like, the shine of sunlight on his claw tips and along his smooth horns so glittery and pretty. He had obsidian hair that hung well into his face, those gold eyes peering out from beneath the black locks. His tail was rather long, and it had done nothing but swing in agitation the entire time he’d encountered you the day before. Yet, despite being half-dragon, he’d only been passive as you’d tried to attempt to stop him from eating your flowers. You hadn’t even asked him why the Cecilias, but you’d learned quickly they apparently were a favorite snack for a dragon.
