“Let your pain out. Just let it all out, okay? You’re allowed to cry. Even if it means taking your time. I'm not in any rush, sweetheart, and you shouldn’t rush yourself either. It’s okay to not be strong for now. Don’t force yourself to be strong. I’ve got you. I know you're struggling. I know you're tired... I know you're exhausted. Just rest, sweetheart. In my arms, I'll catch you when you fall. I won't let you hit the ground”

Hello, could you maybe do one shots of Xiao and whoever else you like saying “who hurt you”? I love the work you put out so far, and I’m really curious to see what you right. 😁
A price to be paid
Characters Included: Xiao, Wanderer/Scaramouche, Kazuha, Tighnari
Summary: When they notice you being hurt, no matter if physically or emotionally, they will stop at nothing, to make you smile again..
Content: established relationship; gender neutral reader; swearing; Scara is being refered to as Kunikuzushi/Kuni; talk about violence; physical and emotional wounds; not proof read yet
Word count: 2.1k words
Well... I said I wouldn't be taking any requests for the time being, and I still stand by that, I am NOT taking requests as of now. Maybe in the future, if work stuff calms down a little. But, with that being said, I read that comment and instantly had some ideas in my head, so I decided to write it anyway.
Since you didn't specify any other characters except for Xiao, I just went with some of my faves, who just so happen to be most of the anemo boys😂
I tried to keep it short and simple this time around, it worked more or less. And as always, I hope you enjoy reading!
Tumblr media
Xiao
One of the most protective boys in my opinion
I mean, it's basically 90% of his personality (I say this in a loving way)
Sure, he is devoted to Liyue and Rex Lapis, but you? That's a whole nother story
Would go to the end of the world and back for you of you wanted him to
Absolutely nothing he wouldn't do
So, when someone dares to harm you, in whatever way, his inital instinct would be to seek out that person to... "talk" to them
Don't worry, he won't kill them. He swore to never kill another human (but that doesn't mean he can't hurt or scare them)
You'll have to talk Xiao out of going after them (depending on what they did to you)
Please try to understand him though, he just wants to make sure that you are fine, he couldn't handle to loose another loved one
Very awkward and unsure in how to give you comfort. He never really had to deal with these kinds of emotions
Will ask you what you need from him and he will do that for you
It was like second nature for Xiao to keep a watchful eye on you at all times. Not in a stalker-type of way. He knew when to keep his distance and he had other things to do as well. But he still watched out for you, to make sure that you were safe.
You were one of the only good things in his life, after all. What good would he be if he couldn't even protect you, the one most dear in his heart, though he still had his troubles showing and expressing that fact from time to time.
But his worry and devotion to you became all the more clear to you when one day, he returned to Wangshuu Inn, finding you there on the balcony while you cried your heart out.
Xiao's inital shock quickly faded as he ran over to you, carefully picked you up from the floor and brought you over to a room that Verr Goldet has granted him a while ago but he rarely used for himself.
You continued to cry into his shoulder, dampening his shirt, but he didn't care. Right now, you were his number one priority.
Unsure of what to do, he opted to slowly putting his hand on your head. He silently let you cry it all out until you finally calmed down a little bit.
Once you did, he slowly pushed you away just a little bit, gently putting his hands on your cheeks as he looked at you with a stern expression.
"Who did that to you? Who hurt you?"
But you just shook your head in response. "That's not important right now. I just... Can you stay with me? Please..?"
So he did. He stayed close by your side, the entire night and in the morning, he was still there right by you. Although he did want to set out and find whoever was responsible for making you feel that way, you always came first.
And, just to give you a little bit of extra comfort, he held you just a little bit closer than he usually would, just so you would feel safe and cared for.
Tumblr media
Scaramouche/Wanderer
That person better start running
He would NOT go easy on them
If he sees you hurt in whatever way, shape or form, he will make the person responsible for this, pay
Although he left his life as Scaramouche, the Sixth of the Fatui Harbingers, behind him, didn't mean that he was a total good guy all of a sudden
No, there were still some traces of that life in him, and sometimes, with a good reason of course, it felt good to act on those thoughts and feelings every once in a while
However, he will make sure that you are taken care of first before he sets out to seek revenge in your name
The Wanderer was in the comfort of your shared home, awaiting your return from the last of your commissions. He was looking forward to a relaxed evening with you in his arms and no one to disrupt.
However, as the door to your home swung open more violently than it usually did, he already had a strange gut feeling that something was off.
Nonetheless, he still went to check it out, only to be frozen in place when he saw you standing in the doorway, one hand holding onto your stomach, while blood seeped through your clothing.
"K-kuni..", you managed to whisper, before your knees gave out. He quickly rushed to your side, catching you before you could crash to the floor. Aftee that, he scooped you up and ran like the devil himself was after him. He needed to get you help.
But first...
"Y/N, I need to know... who hurt you?"
You looked up at him, seeing the always focused and serious expression on his face. But if you listened closely, you could hear the faintest tremble in his voice. Like he was scared of losing you (which he was, he just never would admit to it out loud).
You were able to mumble the name of your attacker before you couldn't hold on anymore and fell into unconsciousness. But that was enough for him.
As soon as he dropped you of at the Bimarsthan and made sure the doctors and nurses there were caring for you, the mask quickly fell of his face, as his gaze turned darker and more sinister than it has in a while.
He left Sumeru City within the hour to track down the person responsible. Preparations weren't necessary for him. For the worst that he could do to that person, he was able to do with his bare hands..
..
It took the Wanderer two days to find your attacker, but he managed it. Archons, how pathetic they sounded when they begged him for their life.
He did spare them (he swore to never go back to his old ways after all) but that didn't mean that he couldn't fuck them up a little bit. And he did. They may have wished they were dead by the end of it, but the Wanderer would not grant them that wish.
..
After returning to Sumeru City, he immediatly went to the Bimarsthan, to check on your condition.
The doctors informed him that you were doing good, but you were still weak and sleeping most of the time.
He stayed by your bedside the entire time you were there, drifting in and out if sleep. He never let you out of his sight, watching over you and making sure you woulh heal well.
Often times, when you were fast asleep, he would press light kisses on the back of your hand, mostly to reassure himself that you were fine and not going to leave him behind anytime soon.
Tumblr media
Kazuha
Kazuha is a compassionate guy and it shows in the way he cares for you
He always puts your comfort before his own, no matter the circumstances
Didn't like how crowded the place got? Don't worry, he will get you out of there in no time
Bored? He will always have a poem or a soft tune ready for you to listens to
You have an activity you want to do with him? Best believe he is more than excited to follow your lead and share another beautiful moment with you
Kazuha knows how to handle his words and actions. He is a controlled guy, it's very hard to get him upset or something of the sort
You are, and will always be, his number one priority. Nothing could be more important to him, than you
When Kazuha found you in the room that you two had rented for the time you were Staying in Liyue Harbor, he could already hear your quiet sniffling.
He knew youbwere trying to keep yourself silent, so he wouldn't notice and worry too much about you.
But you must have forgotten that he was your boyfriend for a reason. It was quite literally his job to worry and care for you. So for you to try and hide how you felt, he felt a little insulted himself.
But alas, it wasn't about him right now.
He slowly opened the bedroom door, only a few lights iluminating your figure sitting on the bed. You heard the door opening and instantly froze, frantically trying to wipe your tears, but they only kept coming.
And before you knew it, your wrists were held in the hands of your lover, who sat down next to you, quielty looking at you.
"My dear.. What happened to you? Who hurt you?", he asked, his voice sounding as gentle and calm as always.
"No one important", you muttered. "Just some random guy.. he was making some comments and.. some of them really hurt.."
As you explained the situation to Kazuha, tears started to form again as you recalled the interaction. You didn't want to cry over some stupid shit like that, but your body seemed to think different about it.
"Shhh, it's alright, my love.", Kazuha said as he pulled you closer to him, placing your head onto his neck, while he slowly played with your hair.
"You are safe here. Let it all out, it's going to be okay. I'm here for you." He continued to whisper sweet little things into your ear as you cried until you felt better about it.
Kazuha kept stroking your hair and your back, soothing you while also silently reassuring you of his presence and that he wasn't gonna leave you alone, ever.
Tumblr media
Tighnari
I feel like in Tighnari's case, if you are his partner or even his mate, his more primal instincts would want to take over
If he sees you hurt in any way, he would have to hold himself back to not just attack the first person he sees
Tries to stay calm and rational but is extremely worried about you
Once he's sure that it's nothing life threatening, he's more calm and able to listen to what has happened
Will treat you like you're made of glass for the next few days
It can be annoying, but please bear with him. He just wants to make sure that you will be fine
Depending on what happened, he might go on a little bit of a rant on how to be more careful and avoid such a situation the next time
Will cuddle uo to you and hold you tightly every chance he gets after this incident
"Master Tighnari, we need your help in the infirmary. Someone got hurt while out on patrol in the forest."
The forest watcher couldn't help but sigh as he was dragged away from his own work. Didn't they know how to take care of injured people? He did teach most of them, so why did they need him? Maybe he should hold another course, so that they can learn and do this stuff themselves.
But once he entered the hut, he realised why they went to get him.
There you were, sitting on the bed, an open wound on your left arm. Collei was by your side, trying to clean it, while the pain of it was obvious on your face.
The other forest rangers left the hut as soon as Tighnari entered, but he didn't care for them. He quickly rushed to your side and fell to his knees on the ground, his ears slightly dropped downwards.
"My flower.. what happened to you? Who did that?", he asked, almost impatient to hear your answer.
"Relax, Nari. It's not that big of a deal. I got surprised by a grouo of fungi, but they have been dealt with.", you told him.
Hearing that, his tense state relaxed a bit, bjt his worry was still very much present in the way he looked at you.
"Collei, I'll be taking over from here. Thanks for your work. Could you go to my cottage and grab me the stuff from my desk?"
"Of course, Master!", the young forest ranger said as she hurriedly walked out, leaving you two alone. As he said, Tighnari took over in cleaning the rest of the wound and bandaging it up nicely.
While doing so, he often glanced up to you and you reassured him every time that you were alright, except for the pain in your arm.
He may be quiet now, but you better expect some form of lecture or rant at the end of the day about the hidden dangers in fungi or something of the sort...

— big brother kazuha hcs
༄ cw: mentions of arguments, overworking, healthy protectiveness, kazuha being the best brother in existence <3
༄ genre: fluff. angst. hurt/comfort.
༄ summary: what’s kaedehara kazuha like as a big brother?
Tumblr media
i. kazuha is the kind of older sibling anyone would feel lucky to have. he’s understanding, patient, and open-minded; always wanting to make sure that you and your feelings are both seen, and heard.
ii. he doesn’t want to make you feel excluded, so if you’re a bit more on the shier side, kazuha developed a tendency to have you join the conversation — but only if he’s absolutely sure you’re comfortable with it.
iii. whenever he’s stuck on a haiku, he'll turn to you for inspiration or direct assistance -- one of the two, there's really no in-between. if poetry isn't your strong suit, that's okay, too! he won't mind.
iv. matching outfits? matching outfits. need i say more? haha, i'm kidding. the designs and details of your attire will differ from kazuha's depending on your chosen elemental vision, but you and he's themes are still noticeably similar to be considered matching nonetheless.
v. kazuha is literally so sweet and supportive towards you. he's normally like that with his companions, but you're not companions, you're family!! it's a different kind of sweet and supportive when it comes to his little sibling.
vi. he'll always be there to support you in whatever career you want to pursue. you want to be an actor? he and beidou would come to each and every one of your performances, even if your role is just a minor background character. you'd like to try your hand at becoming a writer? kazuha will be more than happy to help you, especially with his wide vocabulary! you name it, and he'll support you in the best way he can.
vii. although... if you wanted to join him in the crux, he'd be a bit hesitant, but if you're that willing, he won't exactly say no. only a small warning telling you of what's to come if you came with him, making sure you knew what you were gonna be getting yourself into.
viii. or if you just chose to pursue your academics until the finish line, that's completely understandable and valid, kazuha thinks, and it's okay by him; he can still send a letter or two every week!
ix. don't try to overwork yourself. kazuha will know, no matter what. (its become a sixth sense at this point.) he wouldn't be mad at you per se, but he'll get upset at the fact you disregarded your health in favor of excellence, authoritative validation and approval. he wants you to be happy and healthy, so how can you be that if you ignore your body's necessities?
x. this might lead to a bit of a disagreement between you and kazuha if your physical and mental health start to deteriorate because you wouldn't take a much-needed break.
xi. you keep trying to insist to him that you're okay, and that you can handle it, but kazuha won't be believing your empty reassurances. he can see it on your face, after all -- it's hardly subtle or discreet.
xii. he refutes your claims, and retorts gently. how long this disagreement'll end up becoming depends not only on your level of stubbornness, but also your energy. so if you end up fainting, uhm… you’ll have a doting kazuha on your hands now. <3

I had so much pain in my stomach yesterday so heres some comfort headcanons
kazuha who wraps you in blankets and lets you take the side of the bed thats with the walls. he makes sure pillows are snugly put and he makes sure to keep the room comfortable so that you didn't have to worry about anything.
if you crunch your body inwards to try to stop the pain he will literally adjust his whole position to make you feel comfortable.
kazuha who cries with you because seeinng you cry and not being able to stop it literally shatters his heart. he can only put his hand when the pain is and hope that his love absorbs the pain from your body.
kazuha who cradles your face and feels the nonstop tears coming from your eyes. he feels your jaw move when you choke back a sob. he literally wishes he could transfer the pain from you to him just to see you ok.
kazuha who brings water bottles and makes sure theres straws so its an easy task for you to do.
kazuha, who calls every one he knows, almost desperate because the painkillers didnt work, eating something didnt work, drinking water didnt help. had you been less focused on the pain, you wouldve seen a kazuha you rarely seen.
kazuha, who stares at you with a firm gaze when you suggest that this pain wasn't so bad.
"kazuha, please. it can't be-"
you stop your sentence when you feel a stab to your ribs.
"oh....fuck....."
you groan in pain and kazuha widens his eyes when he sees you double down in pain.
"[name]. you're not ok. you are in severe pain and expect me to just 'get over it'. dear, we're going to the hospital-"
you shoot your head up and stare at him right back.
"please...i don't want to go to the hospital."
kazuha leans down and sighs. "ok. give it 30 more minutes and if its worse then were going. okay?"
"okay..."
kazuha who literally feels his body go into relief when your pain slowly but surely go away. as you slept away, he crawled into bed next to you and held you hands.
he whispered. "you scared me there, my love..."

Your cat scratches you, how do they react? (Scaramouche, Kazuha) [romantic fluffy comfort]
tw: mentions of wounds, mentions of cleaning a scratch, cat is rude :(
Tumblr media
Kazuha:
"How could you?!" You gasp dramatically, while your cat prepares to swat you away once more.
Kazuha just entered the room, yet he has the right idea of what has occurred.
"Love, maybe you should leave her be. It seems she want to rest." He walks over to you and puts his hand out, silently asking for you to show your small injury. You put your hand on his, allowing him to assess the scratch.
"But I just wanted affection..." Kazuha smiles seeing your pouty face. He guides you to stand up. "Let's go clean this wound dove, maybe she'll apologize to you later"
After cleaning your scratch he gives you many hugs and cuddles, letting you know that you can always get affection from him.
Later you can spot Kazuha with said cat loafing on his lap. He's gently chiding the cat, commenting how she hurt his beloved. He even threatened that if she hurts you again, he won't giver her cuddles that day. The cat hasn't scratched you since.
Scaramouche:
"Ouch, that was mean of you" you say to your little menace of a cat.
The moment Scara hears "ouch" from you he is speed walking to whatever room you're in. Of course he can't actually voice his concern for your wellbeing so loudly, instead he asks,
"What have you done now?"
As soon as he sees the pouty angry face of yours he calms down a bit, having an idea of what caused it.
"Are you bothering the cat again?" he huffed
"I just wanted pets.. but she resorted to violence to push me away. Fine then!" you stood up and walked away from your menace, "you get no more pets for the rest of the day" you (very obviously) lied
Scara was starting to crave cuddles anyway, so he'll take this opportunity.
"If you really need attention that badly I guess you could come to me, don't expect anything though" He took your hand and guided out of the room, going to clean the scratch you got. Later you can spot him gently scolding the cat for hurting you.
---
I hope you enjoyed! Feedback is encouraged!

hi there, nothing much, just coming on to think about..
coming home late into the afternoon— it’s borderline evening, the setting sun already shining the world in an overlay of a calming orangey-yellow — to kazuha who welcomes your return with a soft smile and arms open wide, just waiting for you to come in between them so they can wrap you in a hug.
you close the door behind you as you lug yourself towards him, slumping into his open arms as soon as you get close enough. kazuha remains silent. usually he’s all chipper with a poem riddled in infatuation and utter admiration already spewing from his mouth, acting like the opening line to your conversation.
neither of you say a word. kazuha’s hands pat you gently, one buried in your hair giving you small rubs to ease away any headaches that lingered from today, and the other on your back, occasionally moving around to massage your stress away. he always does this; it’s relaxing, and it works well to ease away your tension, your stress, and you finally let the tears flow through.
the poet’s clothes get stained with tears, but he doesn’t care.
you stay like that for a little while longer, kazuha holding you tight as you let the stress from the morning leave your body through tears.
once they’ve dried, kazuha wipes your cheeks and presses a soft kiss to your forehead. “want some tea?” he asks, intwining your hands together as he softly leads you to the kitchen, “i’ll steep your favourite. it won’t take long, don’t worry. i’m not leaving your side, dove.”

underneath the moonlight
Tumblr media
synopsis: in which you wonder if you are holding kazuha back and he reassures you how much he loves you. fem!reader
warnings: hurt/comfort. anxiety/insecurity comfort. (not proofread)
masterlist. navigation.
Tumblr media
if you could put time in a bottle, you would have chosen any of the various times you and kazuha spent on the crow’s nest together when he returned home, overlooking the moonlit sea beyond the shores of inazuma below and underneath the glittering stars above. both of your feet dangled over the edge, gently swinging in time with kazuha’s soft hums that formed the most beautiful of melodies.
but despite the perfect scenery and the comfort of your one and only partner, you could still feel the cold chill of anxiety that sent a shiver up your spine as the breeze brushed across your skin, reminding you of the true reason you had asked kazuha to meet you up here tonight. to his credit, he had been patient, not pushing you to speak just yet, but as his song came to its ending decrescendo, the deafening silence was antagonizing you with each passing second.
finally, kazuha turned to look at you, worry laced in his gentle voice, “my dearest y/n, what’s on your mind?”
in that instant, you nearly backed out of your own plan to share the worries and doubts that had begun to plague your mind to him. instead of revealing your vulnerabilities and insecurities that were slowly eating away at you, perhaps you could finally tell him those three little words that you hadn’t been able to say that lingered in his every touch, in his every glance, and in every song he sang for you. that would fix everything and make all these baseless doubts disappear, right? it would make this night memorable for him in a much better way than you had planned.
no, you knew better than to play with someone’s heart like that, especially your own. your heart couldn’t take it. still, that very same heart was starting to beat out of your chest, your stomach was beginning to churn, and your eyes were starting to water at the very notion of sharing the insecurities that were holding you back, that we’re holding him back. so with all the courage you could muster, you managed to ask, “kazuha, do you ever think there might be someone else better out there for you?”
his eyes narrowed, searching your features for sincerity. he then brought a hand to rest on your forehead, like a mother would check their child’s temperature. when he found no fever, he hummed to himself before moving to tilt your head to the side, eyes roaming your skin intently.
“what are you doing?” you finally asked, confused about his sudden change in behavior.
he tilted your head the other way, still scanning every inch of your exposed skin. calmly, he replied, “checking you for any injuries. only someone who had been knocked upside the head would ask something as absurd as what you’ve asked me.”
you jerked your head away from his grasp, hoping the cold, night wind might cover the slight dust that had started to creep onto your cheeks, “i’m serious, kazu. what if i’m not the right one for you after all?”
he frowned, his hands slipping into yours, “where is this coming from, darling?”
where to start? you saw the way his eyes gleamed as they pulled out of inazuma’s port, the way he was able to strike up a conversation with just about anyone, and how his shy, yet gentle personality was alluring to all he encountered. he shined like the sun when he was away from you, when he was surrounded by new faces and new places, yet he always came home to you. it was endearing at first, knowing you’d always be the one he came home to, but somewhere along the line, that endearment turned into anxiety that he might be happier away from the land of lightning and away from you.
your gaze fell to the wooden planked floor, his gaze too soft, too concerned for you to hold, “you’ve seen the world beyond inazuma, kazu. you’ve seen places that i can’t even begin to imagine, and you’ve likely met tons of other men and women that are more attractive, more intelligent, or more free-spirited than me, yet you always come back here to inazuma, to me. it makes me wonder if i’m,” you sighed, “ if i’m holding you back.”
kazuha used his free hand to lift your chin, to make you look into his crimson eyes that were filled with tears of their own, “please don’t say another word. in fact, let me tell you something before you let anymore of those doubts creep into your mind.”
he squeezed your hand while moving to cup your cheek, “i love you, and only you. when we met all those years ago, i wasn’t sure who i was. i was a lost and wandering samurai without a purpose, but in you, i found something i had been searching my whole life for, a home.” he offered a soft smile, using the back of his hand, still enveloping yours, to wipe away a stray tear streaming down his cheek, “love, you were the one i would come home to after traveling with tomo, and in you, i found my rest. i still do.”
tears were now starting to fall down your cheeks at his words of reassurance as he continued, “while i may be gone for days or even a week or so at a time, you are always in the forefront of my mind. i could be climbing to the top of dragonspine or exploring the depths of the chasm, but my heart always brings me back to the only person whom i could ever love. you, my dear.” he pulled you into his chest, allowing you to hear his beating heart, steady and true, “coming home to you is my favorite part of any journey. i love to travel and to explore teyvat, but at the end of the day, the only place i want to be with you, holding you in my arms once again.”
you looked up at him from where you lay on his chest, “you mean that?”
he laughed, his laughter ringing out above the wind and the sounds of the sea crashing against the side of the Crux, “silly girl, there’s only one place i’d choose to be, and that is right here underneath the moonlight with you tonight.”
you snuggled closer into his chest, “how poetic, my samurai.”
“only for you, my love.” he whispered into your hair “don’t you ever worry your pretty little mind about holding me back, because when i’ve traveled the world and seen all that it has to offer, i will always return to your side, to be yours and yours alone.”

A FLOWER FOR YOUR THOUGHTS? kaedehara kazuha.
Tumblr media
secretary!kazuha whose careful footsteps you never hear against the floor when he comes to wake you in the morning, your look of complete surprise never failing in inviting a low chuckle from his lips followed by a curt "good morning".
secretary!kazuha who knows not to mention anything about your schedule before 9:00 am in the morning because the only coherent communication you can form are the occasional "hmm" of approval or glare in disapproval.
secretary!kazuha who watches you with laughter in his eyes as you barely manage to make your way from your bedroom to the loveseat [aka your reserved seat] in the sunroom before once more settling down to sleep.
secretary!kazuha who always makes sure you've got a small throw blanket covering you while you sleep, carefully tucking it into your slumbering figure before moving to the kitchen to cook something for you to eat when you wake up.
secretary!kazuha who doesn't need to wake you up for breakfast because the smell lulls you gently awake and coaxes you into the kitchen to settle at the kitchen island across from where you watch him work at the stove.
secretary!kazuha who always leaves a small flower garnishing the edge of the dish and a napkin with the neatly scribbled lines of whatever beautiful piece of literature he had been reading earlier that morning.
secretary!kazuha who's developed a knack for slipping your misplaced items back into your bag silently, his movements fluid and disguised if your attention isn't diverted elsewhere [he refuses to give you the chance to lose something].
secretary!kazuha who wears a heart-melting smile whilst politely telling nosy reporters or annoying investors to 'screw off' because not only have they made you feel uncomfortable, but they've upset you [and it will be a cold day in hell when he lets that slide].
secretary!kazuha who always has a small piece of candy or chocolate tucked in the inner pockets of his suit [and you know this], fingers daft and nimble when they slip the small bit of sweetness into your hands if you're in a long meeting or to carry you over until your actual meal arrives.
secretary!kazuha who's mastered the ability to hide his distress from you except the one time he failed the day you had been asked out on your first date and how the same day he came back to find you crying on the steps of the restaurant because they never showed.
secretary!kazuha who will carry you bridal style back to the car and let you soak the shoulder of his [probably armani] suit jacket with your tears because it's just a jacket and he knows he's got the budget to get hundreds more but none to allow you to be as upset as you are.
secretary!kazuha who will have the rest of his team do a security sweep of the perimeter of whatever quiet restaurant you had pointed at to go before entering and renting out the entire space for the remainder of the night [people were the last thing you needed].
secretary!kazuha who will personally ensure that all your meals are cooked to your preference before letting them come anywhere near your table and don't think he doesn't catch the glint in your eyes at his efforts to cheer your up.
secretary!kazuha who allows himself to shamelessly admire you in this light because it is in these rare moments watching you smile and laugh, that he can forget the fact that he's supposed to ignore the warmth in his heart when he's around you.
secretary!kazuha who will let the love reach his eyes when you ask what he's staring at and his lips curve to tell you you're beautiful.

Amidst the fleeting daylight a gentle breeze carried the light honeyed scent of cecilia’s to the top of Starsnatch Cliff. It ruffled the loose strands of your hair and nipped at your skin through the thin cotton of your shirt. In the early months of spring when the sun lingered in the evening sky just a bit longer, so did the crisp chill that kept the earth firm beneath your feet as you and Kazuha ascended the bluff. Though, as the moon crept closer and the evening deepened past the warm golden cast, you silently cursed Barbatos for letting his winds shoot straight through you.
At least, Kazuha was warm.
Like his ruby red eyes held embers between them rather than simply a set of inquisitive irises, vying for where his next adventure would take him. His smile too; it was warm and as radiant as the sun. You’d bear the weight of a thousand winters if it meant to once more be cradled by the eternal hearth that was Kazuha Kaedehara. 
“Penny for your thoughts?” Kazuha muses, a small smile tugging his lips upwards, “You seem to be lost in them.”
His nimble fingers brush against your cheek. The pads are calloused and rough to the touch but when he smooths the palm of his hand along the expanse of your face, it's feather light. He tilts your face down so your eyes meet his. Kazuha’s eyes are riddled with sleep, his lids have sagged and they’re plagued with dark circles beneath them. Still, he trains them on your face.
Brushing a few stray strands away from his forehead you sigh, “You’d find nothing but thoughts of you, my love.”
“And when you’re scribbling in that notebook of yours, do I cross your mind then?”
Cupping your hand over top of his, you lean into his touch. 
“You’re nosy,” you whisper, and he just laughs, “Would you like it if I asked you how many poems of yours I’ve inspired.”
Kazuha looks surprisingly smug from his perch on your lap, like you’ve somehow fallen right where he wanted you to, “It would be simpler if I told you which poems I’ve penned that were not about you.”
“That would still be a great many poems would that not?” You ask, your mouth threatening to dip into a frown, “Words seem to flow from you effortlessly, you always know what you want to say and exactly how you wish to say it.”
His lips curl into a small frown, brows knitting together, “Is something the matter?” Kazuha asks, “Something you’d like to share with me?”
“Sorry.”
You whisper it before even thinking. You’d spoken before thinking too, that icky green feeling spilling out and pouring onto him. 
“Why are you sorry?” 
His thumb smooths against your cheek and forces your head to remain tilted towards him. 
“What’s wrong, love?”
“I don’t know,” you whisper, “I just … I don’t know.”
It wasn’t his fault, not really. The raging, fiery eyed monster that reared its head whenever you felt inadequate was no fault but your own. It felt too silly to verbalize, nonsensical to even attempt to share, and an unfair burden to rest upon his shoulders.
Sucking in deep breath, you muster up a smile for him, “It’s silly but sometimes my best doesn’t feel like enough,” you say, leaning into his hand, “And I wonder why I should even try when there’s always someone more talented out there, who writes with such speed it makes my head spin.”
“A person's art isn’t quantified by how quickly they can produce it or how much they make,” Kazuha says, sincerity lacing his words, “Art isn’t quantified by anything other than the artist's intent.”
“Kazuha…”
“You aren’t defined by your art,” he’s firm, Kazuha is never firm, he’s too much of a free spirit to allow himself be set in stone, “You aren’t defined by anything other than what’s in your heart.”
Leaning upwards, Kazuha presses his forehead against yours. His hair tickles your cheeks and his hot breath warms your chilled skin.
“To me you are perfect, and I love you more than words can express. And if you forget that, I’ll be more than happy to pen a few poems to remind you.”

Severe Injury
Tumblr media
Kazuha x reader with a broken ankle (comfort)
“Why don’t clams give to charity?” Kazuha asks you, his usual soft smile standing out amongst all of his features.
You tilt your head, trying to guess the answer to his joke. Your mind is that of a blank slate, also clueless.
“I don’t know.” You admit.
“It’s because they’re shellfish.”
“Oh!” You exclaim, immediately understanding the concept behind the joke.
With a light chuckle from the joke at hand, you question Kazuha on where he found these jokes.
“There was a book in Mondstadt that I purchased.” He spoke as he jumped off the deck you both were sitting on.
No matter what he does, he is always so graceful! It almost makes your face heat up.
“Will this trip be your first time to Sumeru?” He asks you, staring up at you from the shoreline.
Now that you think about it, you realize that you’ve been to Sumeru before.
“I travelled to Sumeru once. I was only a little girl so I don’t remember much.”
Kazuha only nodded at your response, directing his attention to the sea next to him.
The smell of salt and the sound of the ocean waves is equivalent to that of white noise to him. It soothed him, calmed him, but not as much as your presence did.
“How’s your ankle?” He asks you.
You direct your attention away from his maroon eyes, and to your bandaged leg.
You wouldn’t describe your injury as too serious, although Kazuha would.
In his defense, he has good reason to believe that it is.
Tumblr media
Surprisingly, your injury is the result of a freak accident. It happened during a storm while you were helping to remove items on the deck.
Because of an instantaneous massive wave, the Crux was thrown off balance. During that quick time, you lost your balance and slipped as the wave resulted in the boat to tip. You fell overboard, right into the raging sea.
The impact was hard on your head. Add that to the waves slamming into you and you quickly become disoriented.
However, you hadn’t realized that your ankle had taken the blunt of the fall, it only registered once you attempted to swim.
You were paralyzed in pain and terror. One pained cry, and water entered your mouth.
You were unable to swim, and as another wave crashed above you, you were unable to breathe. You were going to drown.
Kazuha was on the other side of the ship and he witnessed your fall.
Terror was the emotion that was clear in his face. His eyes did not deceive him, neither did the wind. He didn’t think twice before he ran over to that side of the ship, and jumped off the edge himself.
Beidou hadn’t realized you fell, so imagine her horrified and confused expression as Kazuha raced in that direction and willingly leaped off the edge of the ship.
“Kazuha?” She questioned as he ran.
Her eyes widened.
“Kazuha!” She had shouted as his feet left the deck in haste.
She knew through the distance between the two of them and the rough winds, he couldn’t hear her even if he was focused on her voice.
Then without a second thought, Beidou shouted through the storm for assistance.
She knows he had a good reason to jump, Kazuha isn’t crazy.
The sound of something else entering the water was muffled as your consciousness slipped through your fingers like sand.
He grabbed you by your waist, and swam to keep you afloat as he saw that you were unresponsive.
Beidou cascaded a ladder into the ocean from the deck immediately, urging Kazuha to grab hold of it.
He kept a death grip on you and grabbed onto the ladder like both his and your life depended on it, and it did.
With the help of Beidou and three other crew members, you two were pulled out the raging sea to safety.
He panicked once you two were safely out of the storms way. Your breath was shallow, yet it only took a few chest compressions for you to begin gasping and coughing up water.
Finally, he could breathe again.
Tumblr media
“It’s not that serious.” You explain to him, and he shakes his head, sighing because he’s tired of you just sweeping your injuries under the rug.
He turns to you, reaching his hand out to gently grab at your shin.
He moves his finger downward and caresses the injured area, creating a shot of pain can be felt throughout your entire ankle. You shiver under his hold, nearly thrashing your leg as a reflex.
Smirking, he releases you.
“If you’re unable to walk on it, I consider it serious.” He informs you. “Besides, the doctor ordered that you stay off it for a few more weeks. It is broken.”
You groan in annoyance and rest your head in the palm of your hand.
“How could I forget you carry me everywhere.” You sigh. “You know, you’re actually stronger than your appearance gives you.”
“And you’re more stubborn than you look.” He replies with a smile.
He stands beneath you, holding his arms out in front of him, gesturing for you to jump.
You’ve done this enough with him over the past few weeks that it feels like muscle memory.
Without questioning this gesture, you jump off the deck as Kazuha created a subtle and gentle breeze as an extra precaution to your foot.
Your arms landed on his bicep first, gripping at the fabric of his clothing as he changed your position in his hold.
You wrap your arms around his neck, Kazuha having no problem keeping you lifted as he carried you bridal style. Not a strain can be felt or heard from him, it was like you weighed nothing but a maple leaf.
The first time he picked you up, you panicked. You were afraid that you were putting a strain on his body, yet he reassured you that you were lighter than you thought you were.
“Any other plans for the traveling samurai?” He asks you as he walked off the shoreline as he carried you.
This must have been the reason you both hit it off so well when you two first met.
You have small blood ties to the Raiden Gokaden, yet most of your blood is from that of a different clan, one that isn’t native to Inazuma.
You met Kazuha during your stay in Liyue, which you soon joined the Crux Fleet under his request. Beidou and her crew were more than happy to welcome you, seeing as you have quite the talent when it comes to cooking, especially seafood dishes.
“Nothing right now.” You tell him. “Thanks again for saving my life that day.”
“No need to thank me.” He responds. “But there is something you could do for me.”
You nod, taking note one again of his bandaged hand that you can feel.
“You want to have dinner? Just us two as more than platonic friends?”
You froze, but quickly agreed.

May i request something? Could you write kazu and scara with little sibling that is terrified of thunder? Platonic and general neutral?
kazuha + scaramouche and little sibling reader
warnings: none
kazuha
εїз
Kazuha already knows about your fear. You lived in Inazuma for most of your life, so thunder was quite frequent.
It is uncommon for lightning to strike Liyue, it was just one of those days.
Right when the first lighting strike came, Kazuha did not hesitate. He immediately stood up to walk to your room, dropping everything just to go check on you.
He finds you huddled up under your blanket. Before he accidentally scares you or anything, he uses his anemo vision to blow a gust of wind over your blanket, to let you know that he's there.
"Um... big brother–" Thunder struck once again, causing you to flinch and let out a shaky sob.
Kazuha's heart broke, hearing your muffled cries. "Hey, everything's going to be alright..." You felt him slowly and gently pull the blanket away from your head, careful to not harm you.
You two interlocked eyes. "Y/n," your big brother climbed under the sheets with you. "I'm here," the boy said as he pulled the blanket over the both of you.
He pulled you into a soft hug, petting your back. "It'll go away soon," he whispered.
You still seemed to be scared. You were holding on to your brother's shirt, more and more tears rolling down as more thunder struck.
Kazuha kissed your forhead, wiping your tears away with his thumbs. This continued until you felt tired, and eventually fell asleep in your brother's embrace.
εїз
scaramouche
εїз
He was working in his office late at night when the weather started to have mood swings.
Scaramouche barely heard the door open. "Hm? Y/n?" He placed his pen down. You stayed near the door. "Big brother, I'm... scared."
The room had a moment of silence, Scaramouche not making a move out of his chair. "Uhm... Come here." He held his hands out for you. You walked up to him, closing the door in the process.
Your big brother picked you up and set you down on his lap, protecting you with his arms. "Is this okay?" Your small hands gripping his shirt answered the question.
"..." As you burried your head in his shirt, another loud rumble came from the sky, causing you to tremble. More and more came, scaring you. You let a sob out, your shoulders tensed.
The thunder just wouldn't stop, gradually getting louder and your voice started to shake. Until you felt a pair of hands covering your ears, causing you to temporarily forget the loud noises.
Kunikuzushi couldn't handle seeing you like this anymore. His hands cupped over your small ears, making sure to muffle Inazuma's weather.
He brought you closer to his chest, a soft hug from Kunikuzushi. With one hand still over your ear, he quietly took his electro vision off of his form to hide it in a drawer of his desk. He knows he might've been the cause of the thunder. He felt so stressed at work today. He feels guilty, looking at your scared form.
Your big brother kissed your forhead before wrapping his arms around you.

hi, how have you been lately? if you don't mind i have a request to make!
okay, so, for context: i have been feeling sad for no reason these past few days and it pathetically got worse last night when i had a dream about the genshin characters not having time to spend with me because every single one of them was "busy". but it felt more like they were all avoiding me on purpose and i felt as left out and invisible as i used to in high school.
now, onto the request, if i may: in which a fem!reader feels left out, lonely and neglected, but tries to push the feelings down not to seem pushy or like an annoying attention-seeker because her s/o hasn't been spending any time with her/seems to be avoiding her. i'd like kazuha, venti and heizou to be written, please (+you can include more characters, if you want)!
feel free to ignore if this is too complicated or if you don't feel like writing it!!
i hope you have a good day/night!
I think I know exactly how you feel, it really sucks. I hope you're feeling better soon!
Also, I'm sorry if Venti's part isn't the best, I'm still figuring out how to write him best.
Characters Included: Kazuha; Heizou; Venti
Content: female reader; slight angst; hurt/comfort; maybe slight ooc characters; mentions of insecurities; use of petnames
Word count: 3,6k words
Enjoy!
Tumblr media
Kazuha
You sighed again, for what felt like the hundredth time in the last hour. A quick glance to the clock on the wall told you that it was 8 PM right now.
Kazuha, your boyfriend, was currently out with his friends again. He has been doing that a lot since he returned to Inazuma with Captain Beidou.
At first, you didn't mind him meeting up and spending time with his old friends. But as days and weeks passed by, what was once a once-a-week thing became more regular, now he was meeting up with them every other day.
And it's not like you weren't happy for him, but it just started to feel like he was avoiding you, almost.
The time you got to spend with him got less and less over that time, he almost never came over to your place anymore, and if he did, he always talked about the fun stuff he did with his friends. Yet, he never once had invited you to come along, further confirming your suspicion that he just didn't want to spend time with you anymore.
You tried focusing back on the book in your lap, but your attention always shifted back to the clock, watching it as the minutes passed by.
He had promised you to return around 9 PM, so there still was time for you to relax and do some other stuff. Yet your mind just wasn't able to relax. You kept thinking about the same things every time you tried to lay down or do something.
Was he.. getting tired of you?
Did he not love you anymore?
Is that why he spends so much time away from you?
All those thoughts keep swarming your head every waking second. And you had kept all of that to yourself, in fear of sounding like an attention seeker. You didn't want to corner Kazuha with your feelings, knowing that he values his freedom above anything else.
So, you kept it in, talking to not a single soul about how you were feeling left out and neglected by your very own boyfriend.
But, as it is, one can only hold onto such feelings within themselves for a certain period of time. Those feelings are bound to come out sooner or later, you can't just always keep them inside like nothing is going on.
And as your mind kept thinking about this stuff, you became all to aware of that simple fact as you felt the tears start to form in your eyes.
Unable to keep them inside for much longer, you stopped trying to supress your feelings, allowing yourself, for one time, to just let it happen and cry all of your hurt and anguish out. Maybe that will help you feel at least a little bit better...
So, you didn't fight the tears that were now escaping. Rather, you let it happen. It felt like an eternity, the tears kept coming and coming, it was like there was no stopping them anymore. The gates were finally opened so the opportunity was used to get everything out.
You hadn't realised how much time has passed, but when you suddenly heard the front door open, accompanied by a yell of your name from Kazuha's voice, you knew that it was too late.
You tried to run some damage control, aggressively wipping the sleeve of your hoodie against your eyes, taking a few deep breaths to try and calm your erratic breathing down. You clear your throat, hoping that your voice wouldn't sound shaky when speaking.
"Darling?", Kazuha asked again, his footsteps now resonating through the place, trying to find your whereabouts. It was already odd enough to him that you didn't answer him immediately.
"I'm.. here!", you yell out, yet your voice has a high pitch to it, you notice. He knows, as well as you do, that your voice only gets like that when you had been crying.
And sure enough, not only seconds later, he enters the living room, a look of worry immediately seen on his face as soon as he confirms to himself that you had, indeed, cried.
"Darling, what's wrong?", he asked as he rushed to your side, putting an arm around your shoulder as he sat down next to you, pulling you into his side.
You debate with yourself, not sure if you should tell him what has been going through your head lately. But in the end, the fear of rejection was too big, so you decided against honesty.
"It's nothing.. really, just.. my book was a bit sad..", you decided to say, hoping it would convince him. But you weren't sure, since you weren't a good liar and Kazuha was just too good at looking right through you.
"Darling, not to be rude, but this is a comedy novella you have there."
He said that in a serious, yet kind tone. You averted your eyes upon being spotted in your lie, but before long, he gently took your chin into his hand, making you look at him, yet not forcing you to do so.
"(Name).. tell me the truth, please?"
The look in his eyes.. you could only decribe it as absolute honesty and love. It made you hope that maybe, the world wouldn't crash down upon you if you were to tell him your honest feelings.
"Promise you won't be mad at me?", you say with a meek voice.
"I promise.", he responds, softly smiling down at you, trying to reassure you with it. And it worked.. at least a bit.
"It's just.. I don't know how to best say this, but I've been feeling.. a bit neglected lately. You always go out with your friends. And not that I don't like that, I'm happy for you that you're able to do that again.
But.. it feels like you're never with me anymore. And when you are, I get the impression that you would rather be anywhere else but with me. I don't know how else to explain this, Kazuha, but it's eating me alive.
Do you.. still love me?"
Even though throughout your entire explanaition you had sounded so desperate, this last statement from you was almost.. pityful. Tears started to form again as you were looking at him, and it broke Kazuha's heart.
He had no idea you had been feeling this way. Had you only told him sooner, he would have done everything within his power to rid you of these doubts and thoughts.
But for now, he gently took your face into his hands, holding you while some tears started to escape you again. You held his gaze while waiting for his response.
"First, let me apologize to you, my love. I had no idea such thoughts have been plaguing your mind. I am deeply sorry for causing all of this.
And of course, I love you. I love you like the first day I laid eyes on you and fell for you. My feelings have only grown stronger over time, yet never once did they falter.
I deeply enjoy every second I spend with you, wether it be awake or asleep with you in my arms. Please, never doubt that. And if you do, promise me to come to me right away so I can get rid of those thoughts for you."
With every word leaving his lips, you felt a great relief. Like a huge weight has finally been lifted off your shoulder and you can breath again.
You lean into him as he does the same, your foreheads resting against each other. Your eyes were closed, enjoying the contact, but there was a smile smile present on your lips again. Kazuha adored seeing you like this. In his eyes, you were always beautiful, but when you were smiling.. you were ethereal to him.
"So, what do you say we go to bed for the day? I want to hold you close to me, show you all of my love.", he said, tone still soft and gentle as he brushed through your hair.
You simply nodded, not trusting your voice right now. But you were glad you finally got to talk to Kazuha..
Tumblr media
Heizou
You knew his job as a detective was a busy and demanding one. It required him to always be on-call for when he was needed. Sometimes, one single investigation could last for weeks, which could also require him to travel for quite some time as well.
But Heizou has always made it a point to give you his time. As he said it, he didn't want this relationship to suffer from his chosen profession.
So why was it, that lately, you never really got to see him again. Every day, you woke up to an empty space next to you on the bed. The mattress cold, indicating that he either left a long time ago or hadn't returned at all that night. Which wouldn't be surprising to you at this point.
Most of the time, you saw him running around all over Inazuma, chasing one case after the other. When he did get home, he didn't really give you any attention.
No, he actually brought even more work with him. He would stay awake most of the night, reading over documents and files. You basically had to force him to eat sometimes, since he would forget to do so, even when your dinner was sitting right next to him on the table.
It disheartened you, but not wanting to come across as pushy, you swallowed your pride down and endured it. You said nothing... for weeks this behaviour of his continued on and you just kept quiet.
There was one point when you broke down a little bit, going to him and asking him to join you in bed, so that you could cuddle. He didn't look up from his files, but mumbled a simple 'Sure, I'll be there in a second'.
You didn't believe him, but you wanted to so desperately. So you went into the bedroom, waiting for him. You waited for a few hours but he didn't come. Eventually, you gave up and just went to sleep, but you felt defeated ever since that incident.
You didn't think that he loved you anymore..
Maybe he got tired of you already and that is why he was drowning himself in his work, so that he didn't have to spend time with you. But then, why didn't he just simply break up with you?
It would make things so much easier for him, and you could finally get over the heartbreak..
You mused over those thoughts as you were once again laying in bed, all alone. Heizou hadn't returned home today.. again. He was probably pulling another all-nighter at the headquarters again.
And suddenly, in the next second, you decided that you couldn't and didn't want to live like that anymore. Sure, you loved Heizou with your entire heart, but if he didn't love you back, there was no reason to hold him in this relationship.. right?
...
...
Heizou stretched his tired body, yawning. He was exhausted from yet another night of nonstop working, but at least, it finally paid off.
He stood up from his designated desk, walking over to Kujo Sara to hand her the last remaining files he had to fill out.
"Finally done?", she asked, a pityful look in her eyes.
"Yes. It was exhausting, but worth it in the end. I can't wait to surprise (Name) with this!", he beamed at the thought of finally laying in your arms again. He had missed it so very much during this busy time, but nothing was going to stop him from enjoying himself the next few weeks.
Sara nodded as she took the files from him, quickly glancing over them. "Alright, then head out already. And don't you dare come back before your vacation is over."
"Yes, boss!", he said with a wink, already on his way out. The entire way to his home, his smile got bigger and bigger thinking about you. He had worked his ass off, but he finally got a few weeks of vacation and he had already so muched planned for the both of you.
A few days visiting Watatsumi Island, maybe a ride with Kazuha over to Liyue to visit a different nation like you always wanted to do. But before all of that, he wanted just a few days with only you, not leaving his bed at all, just embrased in your arms.
His good mood continued on until he got home. As soon as he walked through the front door, his smile dropped upon seeing you standing in the hallway, a bag on your shoulders.
"I thought you would come back later..", you mumbled, avoiding his eyes.
"What's the meaning of this?", Heizou asked, having already a sneaking suspicion but he didn't want that to be true. This couldn't be happening right now..
"Look, I'm just trying to make this easier for the both of us. You obviously have other, more important things to focus on, a relationship is only hindering you. So, I'm doing what's best for the both of us and leave. This way, I maybe won't have to feel this alone again.."
Hearing that, Heizou suddenly had a pretty late revelation. Sure, in his head, working more so that he could get the vacation made sense to him. Yet he never thought about telling you, since he wanted it to be a surprise. And only now did he realize how much he had neglected you..he hasn't payed you any attention at all during this time.
Oh, what a big fucking mistake he had made...
"No.. please (Name). Let's sit down and talk about this. I promise there's a very good explanation. It's not an excuse, I know that, but.. please listen to me."
While speaking, he had grabbed one of your hands, holding onto it for dear life, afraid of letting you go. It felt like you would just dissapear in front of his very own eyes if he were to do that.
You thought about it for a while, but in the end decided to hear him out.
You decided to move to the kitchen table, sitting across each other, but Heizou was still holding your hand. He kept staring at your hand in his, focused on the picture that he forgot he was supposed to be talking.
He tried gathering his thoughts, thinking about how to best explain everything to you.
"Look.. I know I've had very little time for you those last weeks, and there's absolutely no excuse for that. I'm so sorry about that, (Name). But, there was really a reason behind it... why I took on so much work.
Starting today, I've got three weeks of vacation. That's why I've been working my ass off all this time. My dumb brain thought it would be a good idea to surprise you with that, but I now realize that I should have just told you. In the end, I caused you so much pain by not telling you.
And let me tell you one more thing... nothing is as important to me, as you are. I love you, (Name). You are my number one, now and always. I don't want that to ever change. So please.. don't leave. I'm so sorry.."
By the end of his little speech, both of you were crying. Hearing him explain his side made you feel so much relief.
He didn't fall out of love.. he still loved you..
Standing up, you wrapped your arms around him, pulling him into a tight hug. He returned it, holding you against him like he was afraid of losing you. Like you would slip right through his fingers if he didn't pay attention.
"You idiot..", you spoke against him, your voice coming out muffled but he still understood what you were saying.
A small, weak laugh left his mouth as he pulled back, looking you in the eyes.
"But I'm your idiot, right?"
"...Yes."
Tumblr media
Venti
Having a relationship with a personality like Venti's was not always an easy task. He was secretive yet also very open. He loved to talk to people, yet he seldom spoke about himself.
Even to you, who knew about his true identity, it seemed like he was never fully honest with you. Like there were always some little, but very important details he just left out. Wether it was for your benefit or his own, you couldn't tell.
But you still trusted him. He was still your boyfriend, after all. Those types of relationships don't work out if there wasn't a certain level of trust between those two individuals.
And yet, you just couldn't shake that feeling of distance you always felt when around him. Sure, you enjoyed the time you spent together, but it never felt enough. And with that feeling of distance to him came along a certain feeling of loneliness.
Even though you spend almost every waking minute together, you always thought there was some sort of a gap between the two of you.
You ignored those feelings for the longest time, not wanting to scare him even further away from you. Or, worse, coming across as too needy to him. But you deeply missed that feeling of closeness to a person when in a relationship. But you also knew that this was by far not just any ordinary relationship you had going on..
Still.. was it really too much to ask of him? Was that just his normal self and he didn't realize this? Or was there an ulterior motive behind his actions?
You thought about all the possibilities almost on a daily basis now, even when together with him. You tried analyzing his actions and behaviour to try and figure him out.
Venti noticed this, of course. But he honestly didn't think too much of it. In fact, he rather enjoyed the undivided attention he was getting from you without having to ask for it.
The thing is, even though he is an outgoing person, he gets a little bit shy when it comes to asking for things from you that he desired. It could be the most simplest thing in this world and he would still have some trouble forming the words in his mouth. So he often just dropped subtle hints, leaving you to figure it out and make it look like it was your idea in the first place.
He had no idea what this kind of behaviour was doing to your mind, but he would soon find out..
As it was, you were at your wits end. You couldn't just deal with this in silence anymore. Even at the risk of scaring him away, you had to talk about it with him, or you would risk the end of this relationship.
You just needed to figure out how to best start this conversation...
"Hey, is something the matter? You seem to be lost in thought, more so than usual."
Seems like the universe showed some mercy to you as Venti asked you this. You turned to face him.
You were both currently sitting ontop of a tree, high up in the branches, your feet dangling in the air.
"Actually, yes.", you say, your tone serious as well as your expression. There was no smile on your lips like Venti saw it every other day, so he knew that this was indeed about something big.
He turned his body more in your direction, facing you now as well. A small smile still on his lips, trying to uphold his cheerful persona as he gestured for you to speak, that you were having his full attention.
"Venti.. what exactly are we.. in your eyes?
Because, it feels like we're drifting apart. You never really talk to me, not about anything important or related to you. You always hold me at arms length and I honestly can't do this any longer. I feel like you don't really want me in your life sometimes."
During your little speech, you had averted your eyes to look at your hands placed in your lap. Now that you were finished, you took a few deep breath in before raising your head again, looking at him.
What you saw surprised you. A look of shock and disbelief was written all over his face. Like he couldn't belief that you had been feeling this way at all.
"(Name).. I had no idea that this was so important to you..", he mumbled, thinking about what to do next..
Then, he jumped off the branch, his fake anemo vision lighting up as he was no floating in the air in front of you. He came closer to you, gently taking your face into his hands.
"I'm sorry I made you feel this way. I promise this was not my intention, at all. I am still figuring things out with you, many things are new to me, but I want it to work out.
So please, forgive me. I promise to do better from now on. I don't want you to ever feel this way again, my beautiful princess."
Then, he placed a soft kiss to your temple, making you blush and giggle a bit. He smiled upon hearing you cheer up again.
This is what he wanted you to feel like. Loved and cared for.
And he would do everything in his power to assure that from now on, he would never cause you to frown ever again..

Kazuha with a Teenager!Reader Part 3
Tumblr media
Father figure men? Me too, anon, me too. Anyway, if you saw my pinned post, you would know that I don't write for Ayato or Kaeya. Feel free to request other characters on the list, though.
Previous part here.
Strictly platonic. I made this angst-y, be warned.
Tumblr media
Kazuha:
You didn't trust anyone. Your family was no acception. In fact, they didn't like you the second you were born.
They wanted to do an abortion. But, once they found out that the Raiden Shogun herself ordered her men to lend Mora to your family, they changed their minds. The Mora was supposed to be funds to take care of you, since you were born from a poor family.
They decided to keep you, for the Mora.
Those idiots wanted to let you starve, to not do anything for you. But, if you died or went missing, the funds would stop arriving. They gave you the essentials, just enough to see another day, but nothing more. You felt hungry. It was torture every single day, not being allowed to die.
One day, you were left alone with your careless mother. The rest of them went off somewhere they didn't bother telling you. The woman was in her room, probably applying make up. The thing is, she wasn't watching you. And, you saw the front door. You saw it unlocked. Plus, this door was the quietest one in the house, and the woman was in another room. Lucky you.
Taking your shoes off as to not make any noisy footsteps, you fled, not caring to close the door behind you.
You stopped to rest at a place in the city that wasn't too crowded. Feeling uneasiness, you looked behind and gulped. You were sweating. Not because you were running, but because you were nervous.
Inazuma city was a place you've never left, yet have never seen. It was unfamiliar to you. You didn't know which way to go, you even forgot how to get back to the house.
Spotting a restaurant nearby, you noticed how hungry you felt. When's the last time you ate? Three— Four days ago? You must be starving. Yet, you didn't have any Mora, so you sat down next to the restaurant.
You sighed. What are you going to do now? You had barely any food during your life. Now, you didn't have any food. Why was your life so messed up?
Then the idea of death came across your mind. You weren't allowed to... But... Death sounds so peaceful.
You zoned out. The next thing you knew, a cat was cuddling up against you. Flinching away from the cat, it meowed. You've never seen a cat before. Maybe through your window, but this was different.
Tears were threatening to spill. You fought them, which was easy since you had to do this every day at the house. Sighing once again, you carefully pet the cat. It purred.
You subconsciously pet your new friend while thinking about what will end today.
You barely noticed the sounds of clothes shuffling. Turning your eyes but not your head to the sound, it was someone. It was a person, who decided to kneel down next to you.
He was on one of his knees, elbow resting on the other. You noticed he was smiling... A comforting sweet smile, just for you. You then turned your head to get a full view of him. He had Inazuman clothes, white hair with a hint of red. You wonder, why? He only crouched down and you're beyond confused.
"I suggest straightening your posture, you'll get back pain," The man spoke, averting his eyes to look forward. Does he confuse you with someone else..? You wanted to speak, to ask this man a question. But, you weren't allowed to. You were never allowed to.
The man gave another reassuring smile to you. Were you given permission..? Well, you'll be gone by the end of the day. You at least wanted to try new things before you end yourself.
"Is—" You immediately stopped. He looked towards you, expectantly. To be honest, you haven't tried speaking your whole life. This was so... New.
"Go on," He encouraged. "Is this... Your cat?" You asked. Oh, Archons, you seem so stupid right now. Your voice almost cracked, your eyes water, and your trembling. You even stopped petting the cat, in fear of what the man might do. You weren't allowed to speak, why did you do this?!
Instead, he chuckled. "No, it's not mine. Just thought I'd join you." He crossed his legs, acting more casual. "Are you doing alright?" The man asked with worry, but still a kind smile on his face.
Were you doing alright? Was this a trick..? Your mouth hung open the slightest bit, basically having a staring contest with the stranger. The cat meowed, snapping you out of your trance.
Such a kind question... Were you doing alright. No one's ever asked that before. Wait, are you doing alright? You gulped once again, and nodded yes. It was a lie, the first lie you've ever made, and you were scared.
The man then had a worried smile. "I have a feeling you're not. Are you perhaps feeling hungry?" He tilted his head. This boy knows you're lying... So, why isn't he punishing you?? He even asked you if you were hungry?! Your face tensed up in attempt to not let out any tears. You looked at the restaurant next to you, to escape his gaze. But, you got distracted by all the delicious foods.
He chuckled once again. "It seems you are. What would you like? I heard they added a new dish to their menu, pizza." Your head snapped towards him, still fighting the tears. "I take that as a yes," He laughed softly and stood up. "You can wait here."
You looked down at your lap, eyes wide. The cat meowed again, falling asleep. Your breath quickened because you were so hungry, also because of the fact you were getting a real meal, for the first time in your life.
When the man came back with the plate of food, he put a hand to your back while sitting down next to you. Closer than before. He also handed you your food.
You stared at it with huge sparkling eyes. It... Looked so expensive. So delicious. You then thought what you've ate all your life. Usually an apple, a bread that wasn't even toasted nor had butter, half a sunsettia... Was this a dream?
Your stomach growled. The man notices your hesitation. "It's all yours." You couldn't keep the tears in. Your eyes clenched closed, and you covered your face, whimpering.
He put a hand to your back once again, without letting go. You knew you were being so stupid... But it seems like you couldn't control your body.
You couldn't help it... You hiccuped while slowly turning towards him with closed eyes, and leaning towards his embrace. It felt so foreign, just what was happening right now?
He pet your hair slowly and whispered, "It's okay... The food will get cold soon."
You ate in silence. When you finished, the boy took the plate and gave it to the restaurant owner and sat back down next to you.
You sniffed, and tried to thank the boy by bowing your head. He laughed and pet your hair. He thinks he's gained your trust. Now, to the real question.
"Where are your parents?"
You froze. That was the only sign he needed, to know that something's up with your relationship with your family. He also noticed how you didn't have shoes. What a sad, lonely, poor soul.
He held your cheek gently. "Don't worry, I have a small house in the city I don't often use. It has lots of supplies like food, you can stay there." He smiled. The man rubbed your tear stained cheek. You tried muttering a small "Thank you," feeling shocked.
Just then, a lady came up to you. "Kazuha, what have you been doing?? The whole crew has been waiting for you this whole time. You said you would be there an hour ago!"
The man let out a nervous laugh. "I'm sorry, Huixing. I'll be there in a minute." The woman turned back around. "Hmph. You better be, or else Beidou's doing the mission without you." And, she's gone.
He turned his head towards you. "Sadly... I have to leave now. My house is over there, it's pretty close." He pointed. "What's your name?" He placed his hand back down on his lap.
You gripped your legs, nervously. "I don't have one." You furrowed your eyebrows, thinking of the sad thought.
The man's smile disappeared. He was left with a heartbroken expression. A child with no identity... It could make anyone's mind swirl with rage. He'd have to arrest those idiots who never cared.
"Ah. Well then, you can decide your name. Do you have any ideas?" He said, trying to make the situation positive. You thought, what would be a good name you like? Hmm.
"Y/n..?" Y/n sounds good. You looked at the man, nervous yet curious for his response. He was now smiling. "Now, try introducing yourself." This was probably to get you to feel more comfortable with your new name.
"M-My name is Y/n..." The man encouraged you to say it again, with more confidence. So, you straightened your posture, like how he told you so before, and stated, "My name is Y/n."
He made a closed eyes smile, and silently clapped. "It was nice meeting you, Y/n. My name is Kazuha." And just like that, he left aswell.
You sat for a moment. All that just happened...
Hearing a "meow," you looked towards the cat near your lap, then towards the house you should probably go to. Maybe you can bring your new furry friend.
Hm. Guess today wasn't the end. More like, a new beginning.

<Kunikuzushi/Scaramocuhe x Reader>
-Angst ~ fluff?
Gender: Female
Summary: You were Kuni's childhood best friend but after the incident, he suddenly disappeared and you slowly forgot about him until you dont know what he looked and sound like.
Warnings: death, stalking, ghosted, fire, bad decision (thats all i think)
A/n: Feel free to correct my grammar!
Kunikuzushi>>>other versions of him
i hope you enjoy~!
--
"Oh! Im sorry!"
Someone said while lending me a hand.
"Huh?" I looked up and saw a cute little boy with a worried expression painted on his beautiful face. I held his hand and he helped me up. He was really adorable that you cant help but blush a little.
"Im really sorry!! I didn't know where i was going!"
"Oh no- dont apologize! I didn't look where i ws going to!" I said while scratching the back of my head.
"Oh! Let me help you pick that up" helping him pick up the boxes that fell down when you two bumped into eachother
When you two are done picking the box up and giving it to the customer, you asked him to be your friend.
You learned that he's name was Kunikuzushi
After that day you two became very close.
You two are practically attached to the hip!
He's really shy and kind of timid but its ok you can work with it! (>>>>>>>>>>>)
He's so amazing that you even formed a little crush on him.
"And they live happily ever after!"
"Kuni, when will we get our own happily ever after?"
"I dont know maybe when we grew old?"
"But what if we didn't"
"Then maybe in our next life?"
"Ehhhhh"
He helped you anyway he can and ofc you helped him too.
Your crush on him grew day by day that you feel like your heart is going to explode.
"Umm..Kuni i want to tell you something"
"Oh sure!"
You lead him somewhere noone can hear you two.
"Kuni..i really like you.."
"Me too! I really like you too! Youre a good friend!"
"Oh- no-"
Before i can correct him, someone called onto him and he suddenly left not before saying bye.
You felt your heart deflate.
You were so sad but you cant blame him since hes kind of dense.
.
.
.
One day you smell smoke coming from outside. You came out only to be greeted by Kuni's house burning.
You looked around and saw no signs of him.
You were about to go inside the burning house but your mother pulled you aside.
.
.
.
You really dont know what was going on but all you know is that Kuni is nowhere to be seen and Hes been gone for weeks now.
After the accident, you asked everyone in the village if they have seen Kuni around but no luck.
.
Its been a few months now and youre still searching for him.
Your heart yearned for him. You miss his voice, looks, and everything you miss him so much.
.
.
.
Years has passed since you last seen him.
You were slowly healing from his sudden lost of contact.
Its was a long journey, youve been trying to search for him for so long but all in vain.
You decided to just give up and move on with life.
Along the journey, you met someone Kazuha.
You learned that he likes to travel around and you decided to tag along since why not.
You slowly forget about Kuni along your journey and was slowly replaced by your new found crush, Kazuha.
.
.
.
You were walking around Inazuma when you suddenly felt like you were being watched, you turned around and saw people just minding their own business.
When you turned back around, you suddenly bumped into someone.
"Ah-! Im so sorry!!" You said while looking up
You saw that the young lad have a very familiar face, cute pair of eyes and beautiful indigo hair.
"Do i know you?" You mumbled.
"Tch. No and watch where your going next time."he said walking past me.
"Huh-" before you can say anything, he already dissapeard from your sight.
.
.
.
After that encounter you cant stop thinking about him, he just look so familiar.
"Y/N!"
"Huh-"
"Ah finally ive been calling you for the past minute. Is somethign bothering you?"
"Idk kazuha...I met someone a while ago that looks oddly familar.."
.
.
Ever since that day you feel like you were being watched. Every where you go, you cant get this feeling off. Even if you go to other lands you just keep feeling like you were being followed.
One night, you decided to go walk through the forest which is a very bad idea since you got attack by some treasure hoarders.
Before you could get hit, someone appeared Between you and the hoarder.
"Huh?" You looked up and saw that familar indigo hair facing his back at you.
He quickly deafeted all the treasure hoarders.
"H-hey! Thank you for saving me" you yelled.
"Tch." Then he dissapeard.
"Y/n! Where are you!?"
"Y/n! Are you ok!?"
"Huh kazuha? What are you doing here?"
"Thats not important right now are you ok!?"
"Ah ye.."
.
.
.
Years later
You and kazuha finally grew old.
Alot has happened since then.
You two sacrificed alot for the future that you two are experiencing now.
Kazuha finally retired fron travelling around.
You two got married after 5 years of dating.
The traveller have finally returned into their own world, it was sad but every journey has its end.
That feeling of being watched is still there tho youre finally used to it, so you dont really mind.
Even tho you grew old you were still protected by that same indigo hair guy.
You never saw his face nor did you hear him speak, you also dont know his name since he always dissapears when his job is done.
.
Here you are on your death bed.
You got a deadly disease that dosent have a cure.
Kazuha is holding your hand crying knowing that youll die any minute now.
You were tired.
You want to sleep.
Before you close your eyes forever, you told kazuha that youre thankful for him and wished that he wouldn't join you in the afterlife soon.
At the corner of your eye you saw him.
The same man who protected you all those years.
You finally saw his face.
His face is painted with sorrow and anger.
But not at you tho.
You looked at him and smiled and mouthed the word 'thank you'
As you took your last breath and closed your eyes, a single tear run down your face, smiling knowing that youve done everything you wanted to do.
Every journey has it end and you finally got yours.
.
.
.
When Kazuha finally left the room, Kuni approached you and gently kissed your forehead and mumbled
"Im sorry i left you that day maybe in another life we can have our own happily ever after." As he dissapeard.
.
.

In the situation where you are being stalked/chased, how do they keep you safe? (Diluc, Childe, Kazuha) [romantic comfort]
tw: mentions of reader being stalked (not by the character), reader not being able to go outside
Tumblr media
Childe: if you weren't living with him already you are now. It's up to you whether you want a separate room or not, all he wants is for you to feel comfortable.
Since Childe can't always be at your side, they're will be a few guards at the entrance at all times. He makes sure you're still able to send letters to your friends and family, not wanting you to feel lonely or isolated.
In the situation that you aren't able to go out, Childe will go on short walks with you with a guard following at a distance.
The moment they have the perpetrator captured he'll ask you what you feel like doing. Expect much mora to be spent on whatever you choose, along with you lover accompanying you.
"How about we go to that bakery you've been eyeing, I'll go with you, just in case."
---
Diluc: Although Diluc is strong, he doesn't trust himself to protect you. So he buys you a house in the middle of Mondstat, hiring guards to keep watch of it 24/7.
He visits you whenever he can, delivering you gifts and snacks. He gets you books and paper, maybe a plant to take care of. He makes sure your as comfortable as you are able to in such a situation.
After using some of his connections and wealth, he finally catches the stalker. He hands them over to Jean, and discusses what will be done with them. After ensuring that the knights have actually done their job, you rushes over to you. He tells you the news first, able to share this moment of relief together.
"It's over love, your safe now, I promise."
---
Kazuha: He convinces you to stay on the Crux with him, and informs Beidou of the situation. She welcomes you aboard, and reassures you that you'll be safer here then on land.
Kazuha introduces you to the crew, and tries to calm you down. He'll offer to cloudgaze with you, and generally stay by your side.
When your resting, he's gathering any evidence he can find and reporting the incident to the mililith. If they refuse to take any action, then he and Beidou will take this into their own hands.
After looking into people you suspect may be doing this, they finally track them down and hand them over. Ensuring that they can no longer harm you, he rushes back to the Crux, telling you of the news.
"Everything's alright now dove, your safe."
----
I hope you enjoyed! Comments and feedback are encouraged!
