since i'm bored and have nothing better to do, i would love to share some of my personal favorite chiluc headcanons.
autistic diluc x audhd childe... diluc having a special interest in birds and childe having a special interest in marine biology.
childe collects bird feathers he finds on his travels for diluc, just to give the redhead an excuse to infodump to him.
speaking of info dumping, diluc is extremely shy when it comes to info dumping. the moment he realizes he's info dumping, he shuts it down instantly. this frustrates childe to no end, because he's never seen such a genuine sparkle in diluc's eyes like he does when diluc is rambling about bird facts to him.
diluc is terrified of rain and thunder, while childe is terrified of darkness.
when it comes to sleeping, diluc is more refined (in his words) and prefers spooning. childe, on the other hand, starfishes over diluc.
childe has a bad habit of collecting little nick-nacks and souvenirs that he doesn't need while traveling around teyvat. in return, the dawn winery has slowly started to fill up with these souvenirs that childe insists on collecting. diluc frequently lectures and scolds him for it, saying he's "cluttering up the winery"... yet still keeps the random little nick-nacks childe brings home.
speaking of bringing home nick-nacks, diluc frequently teases childe about it. he says childe reminds him an awful lot of certain bird species that decorate their nests with items to attract mates. the ginger always responds with an indignant huff and a mumbled "i don't do that."

*sits down with you*
*takes a deep breath*
okay, let's do this.
.
what's your favorite thing about writing for genshin? least favorite thing?
the lore. for both questions. there's so much of it and at the same time, it's not about the things that interest me.
what're your headcanons about khaenri'ah? about paimon?
well i've got nothing for paimon, but the main khaenri'ah headcanon is about them having a very close connection to the stars. each region has their Thing (freedom, contracts, eternity), so khaenri'ah gets a star motif.
for that one xiaoven oneshot you wrote--how did they get together in that 'verse?
i'm assuming you mean the modern one? i don't know, to be honest! i was picturing them about college age, so maybe venti is a music major and xiao is an art major (he has tattoos in canon, so i'm saying he cam draw), and they met through a project.
in the soulmate chiluc au, will they ever kiss or will they pine for eternity (or will one of them die before a confession happens)?
they'll get together eventually!! i've been thinking of doing a sequel where they actually get together, and i promise you that even if they pine for a while, they will get soft kisses and romantic fluff.
definitely no death!! or, not in this fic, at least. ;3
which of the numerous times you've whumped childe is your favorite?
damned if i do ya, because of the sheer amount of yearning instead of being helpful, or the break of dawn, solely because of childe going "fancy seeing you here" while dying on dilucs doorstep.
what's your current "jesus christ this is a childe song" song?
fighter by the score! i mean just, look at this.
Give me the lights, give me the hate, give me the pressure
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, pain is pleasure
I hear the wolves calling my name, no surrender
Here only the strong survive
Don't need to sign, nothing divine's gonna save me
I'm a machine, building a dream is what shaped me
Breaking the door, waging a war, no escaping
Watch me as I touch the sky
The blood I taste is the price I pay
All my scars will fade
The monsters in my head will become the pain
what fic are you currently dying to write but haven't yet?
rebellion fic, rebellion fic, rebellion fic!!!
you don't understand, i have so much brainrot for this au but it requires plot and i am Struggling. i've got the tsaritsa taking over mondstadt instead of stealing venti's gnosis, signora and childe left in charge there (rip childe and dilucs established dynamic), the characters split into groups because there's no way everyone's in the city when it happens, kaeya and diluc running intelligence, and that's about it.
if you want more i can ramble about the specifics on another post. :3
thoughts on beidou/itto as a ship?
it's a thing?? i didn't know it was a thing.
what fic is currently languishing on the backburner of your wips folder?
several, too many to name off the top of my head, and i'm not too ashamed to admit that most of them are childe whump things that you and nori have talked about.
what fic do you hate with a burning passion and wish you never wrote?
can i say my atla series? the writing itself isn't bad, and i don't 100% hate it but? i'm always going to end up comparing everything to the stats on that series.
whadaya think of kamisato ayato's new trailer, and do you have any fic ideas/headcanons about him?
yesssss, i loved his trailer so much. the colors in it had a lot of contrasts and his dialogue is so nice, and yeah, can you tell i'm pulling for him yet?
no headcanons yet, but i do wanna write a soft fic about him, ayaka, and thoma!
