siren kokomi.. 🤞
Tumblr media
THIS WAS FROM MONTHS AGO, BUT I KEPT IT AND ANON IF YOU SEE THIS IM SORRY!!!
anyways!
kokomi would be the prettiest siren. almost like a mermaid with her beautiful pastel pink hair, pearls embedded in her skin. such a beautiful voice when she sits on the rocks and sings for lost ships. pretty pink lips hiding razor sharp fangs.
she is the devil in disguise.
we can pretend you are a sailor, a pretty one. she's not used to seeing such a cute woman out at sea!! she secretly swims closer to your boat, luring the captain towards her just to sink your boat, taking you to her little cave.
she sings to soothe you, running webbed fingers down your neck and back, cheek pressed atop your head.
she'll lure more people in with her melodies, but she no longer has any interest in them. she steals their jewelry and fancy things to give to you as gifts.
oh! when you accept her presents, she's absolutely delighted. why, you're accepting her offer of courtship, and you want to be mates!
good luck with mating season with your new siren gf

Parenting Headcanons - Sangonomiya Kokomi & Kuki Shinobu
A/N: That cat gif? It's very nice.
Tumblr media
When it comes to motherhood, Kokomi is patient. Having children is the crowning achievement of a relationship for her, so she will put the majority of her strength towards building a healthy environment for them to grow up in - that means ensuring your love is unbreakable, and that Watatsumi Island is peaceful and prosperous. 
For the priestess leader, marriage is good for her perception in the eyes of her subjects. Having children will no doubt further improve upon her image - Inazuma's society values family first and foremost, after all. An heir of her and your blood would surely make for a worthy successor of her title. 
All of it doesn't mean that Kokomi sees her little one as a political asset, however. Her desire to be a mother was there ever since she was just a child, and she sees motherhood as a natural final step, and a great honor. 
The means of conception aren't anything unusual - Kokomi will just ask you to stop using protection, as well as initiate sex more frequently. It might take some time, as there is no guarantee that the first attempt will be a success, but don't worry. Kokomi will support you all the way through. Patience is key. 
A boy or a girl? Kokomi considered this problem carefully, but in the end, she just shrugged. As long as they are healthy, she will be happy with either. 
The priestess won't publicly announce her pregnancy, as the news will spread the moment her stomach grows in size. As the leader, she has more than enough eyes on her at all times. When the people notice, Kokomi will be absolutely adored as an excellent leader and future mother, for sure! 
Without a doubt, the first to find out would be Gorou. His Inu senses will pick up the heartbeat of the baby once it is present. One day during a meeting, Kokomi will see Gorou freeze. She'll ask him if anything is wrong, but he won't reply, his ears and eyes focused on her belly. Once his brain connects the dots, his tail will wag aggressively and Gorou will certainly fail to contain his excitement. Even after the initial outburst of joy fades away, the general will smile and move the tail each time he sees Kokomi and hears her baby. Without a doubt, Gorou will act on his desire to protect those he holds in high regard and help her with whatever she might need. 
Kokomi will make use of his proposals and hand him the executive power on Watatsumi Island for a few years after her first trimester. He proved to be a capable manager during her leave for Sumeru. Kokomi will still participate in planning and decision making, but will avoid exerting herself. Stress is bad for your bundle of joy, after all. 
She will sleep and nap a lot. After such a long period of working herself down to the bone, that rest is more than deserved. Even if Kokomi won't insist or bother you about joining her, she will, shyly, make her desire known. Being held is fantastic on its own, but pregnancy sprinkles even more love on cuddles. 
Kokomi will use her time to prepare everything for the child (or children if the gods will bless her). The room, the crib, the toys, the clothes… she will make sure that everything is in its place. 
There will be many visitors, seeing as Kokomi has a great deal of connections. The most frequent ones will surely be The Crux. Beidou and Kazuha will bring you and Kokomi plenty of useful things as well as neat little baubles or trinkets for the kid to play with. Even if a little awkwardly, Sara will also meet with you as an act of political goodwill. As well as the Tengu General, Yae Miko will surely pay a visit to her Watatsumi counterpart. 
Since Kokomi has access to the absolute best healthcare, both she and her child will come out of labor unscathed. 
Her professional diligence will carry over to her motherly side. No matter how exhausting the situation becomes, no matter how much work you have to put in, Kokomi will always strive to do more for her child. Even despite the obvious option to leave a good part of the work to her maids, Kokomi will insist on taking care of her little ones herself - with your help, of course. Parenting is a joint effort, but also a bonding experience. 
As unpleasant as she finds that part, Kokomi will not hesitate to establish rules and teach them to behave. If she can't, she will ask you for help. Kokomi has a plan, as always. 
But even the strategist will get tired eventually. Although you can handle them with great success, some time away from your offspring is always welcome, and will usually be spent sleeping or relaxing in other ways. As you and Kokomi recover, Gorou will gladly step up to offer support. Physical exercise is the name of the game here - running, playing tag, archery, sparring (adjusted to their age and capability of course - sticks are good weapons too) or various ball games with the soldiers will keep the kid entertained. 
And, let's be honest here. What kid wouldn't like to play with a doggie general? 
Supported by you, her people and her adiutant, Kokomi will be a kind and caring mother. 10/10.
Tumblr media
Shinobu is renowned for being meticulous when it comes to her dreams. With parenthood being one of her long-time goals, it's obvious she approaches it with diligence and care. 
Her parents, especially her mother, weren't very supportive of her life choices. The desire to outdo one's parents is natural, and especially strong with her. No matter the cost, Shinobu wants to guarantee that her children will have freedom and every ounce of support she could muster. Whoever and however many they are. 
As soon as she knew that both of you were willing to go further with the relationship and have children, she started her preparations. 
First, Shinobu began researching everything about pregnancy - from the conception right to the moment of childbirth. Her first step was practicing her pelvic floor muscles. Strengthening them makes childbirth easier, reduces the many discomforts of pregnancy and has plenty of use in the bedroom. Those exercises aren't that demanding, and can be fun to do - especially when you're there to help out… 
Once the decision is made, Shinobu will start working hard on her health - and will encourage you to do so as well. 
Aside from the obvious healthy diet, lots of physical activity and the avoidance of alcohol and caffeine, Shinobu will track her cycles to pinpoint the best moments for trying for a child. She will start taking the appropriate vitamins to ensure the baby develops properly long before conception. Not only are those steps beneficial for her health, but they also allow the idea of being a mother to sink in and cement in her mind. Each day, she grows more excited at the thought. 
It's a joint effort, so she'll make sure you're in top condition too. You'll do many of the things she does, like stay away from drugs and keep active. On top of that, Shinobu will recommend many things that could improve your chances, like avoiding very hot baths, tight underwear and - most important of all - lots of sex. 
It's no surprise then that the conception will be a matter of one or two times. Even if, despite your best efforts, she won't get pregnant right away, she will be patient and supportive for as long as it takes. 
Itto won't get the message for as long as possible. Shinobu values her privacy, and she knows that if he heard, the matter would become public in no time. But when he does find out, he will be ecstatic. A little bro to help him in his antics and to take on adventures? Count him in! 
Shinobu will keep up her healthy lifestyle throughout the pregnancy, making sure to get lots of rest, drink water and do some light back exercises, as well as frequently visit the doctor's office. Even if it's in the far future, she will also research the local kindergartens and schools - what opinions they have, what programme, how far they are, how does the average day look like - everything there is to know. 
Enough said, the room for the child will be fashioned long before they arrive in the world, in great part by the One And Oni. He and the boys will make the crib, put up decorations and gather lots of toys they acquired through their antics. Even if it will be hard to part with them for the Numero Uno, he believes it's a noble cause. 
Her body will recover quite rapidly, thanks to her tip-top condition, with the baby being just as healthy as their mother. 
She is a freelancer, which grants her a lot of free time. It's free only by name, however - motherhood, life's final exam, takes much more effort than any test she was met with, and she wants to pass with flying colors. That said, it may be a good time to start looking for a more permanent job - your spendings will grow extensively very soon. With her skills and work ethic, most employers will fight over her. 
Itto will bungee at every opportunity to care for your child. No matter how troublesome it becomes, he will approach it with a very unusual dose of patience and maturity. His ideas will also get much less problematic, as getting in trouble with the law would be a bad example for the little guy (or gal). Seriously - it's as if he was the father… 
That said, Shinobu doesn't complain. Not at all. 
Diligent and meticulous as ever, Shinobu will shape up to be a shining example of a mother. 10/10.

Thanks for reading!

Genshin characters reaction to you bringing a cat home
Tumblr media
A/n: I'm not even gonna try to apologize for vanishing out of the earths surface for about 4 months but because today is my blog's first birthday I'm finally writing this fanfiction idea that I had sence I started this blog, caroce enjoy it my beloveds 😙
Characters included: Diluc, Kaveh, Kokomi, Shenhe
Cw: not proofread, we die like Dilucs dad, and mentions of homicidal thoughts in shenhes part
✦Diluc✦
Ok so the moment he saw a tiny kitten loafed in the sofa near the fire place, he knew it was you that brought it in
And you convinced him to let the little guy stay until winter was over because it was freezing outside and would have little chance at survival
Diluc after some convincing agreed to let him stay, but he said that 'the moment spring comes and it's warm outside the cat is going out'
Little did he know that during the little time that the cat was staying in your guys mantion he slowly fell in love with it
And it was just the littlest of things, like the time the little kitten hopped into your guys bed and snuggled itself in-between you and Diluc while cuddling
Or the time it was colder in the house so the kitten got on Dilucs lap and proceeded to purr and make biscuits on his lap because he has a pyro vision and his body runs warmer
And when spring came and it was warm, Diluc didn't forget his promise but he didn't have the heart to do anything so he just let the kitten be
And if you would bring it up to him that sadly it's time to let the kitten go, he'd just pull up excuses like 'oh but the weather is still not that stable yet and it can get cold again really quickly' or something like that
And then little did you know now the cat has been staying with you guys for about a year and now Diluc doesn't dare to let go of your guys cat and loves it with all of his heart
And the best part is that the cat now catches all of the mice and rats that hide around the winery
And one of Dilucs favourite things is watching the cat run around the grape yard and catching crystal fly and bringing them to Diluc as presents
✦Kaveh✦
(For the sake of this fanfic he moved in to your house)
Ok so, similar to Diluc, the first time he saw the kitten it was on the sofa curled up and peacefully sleeping
And after that little guy approached him to give Kaveh a little bump on his leg because he wanted scratches, Kaveh fell in love with it
Yes the two of you would have to work harder to be able to afford the kittens litter box, cat food, toys ect but he didn't mind because it was for his son (yes he calls the cat his son)
This mf WILL get jealous of the cat chooses to cuddle with you rather than him and be sarcastically dramatic about it
Once when he was working on a project the kitten managed to get on too of his shoulder and started playing with the feather that Kaveh has on his head, and whenever the cat is on tall pleases and Kaveh is near the cat WILL try and get that feather from his head to play with
It doesn't matter if that cat has be best toys in the world, Kavehs feather is the superior toy for the cat to play with
✦Kokomi✦
At first she saw them in her secret place where she'd take time to gain energy back, and didn't think you were the one that brought them here but she let them be because they didn't bother her and honestly their presence calmed her down
After a week she brought you in to her secret place to show you the two cats that made a home there and you had to confess to her that you were the one that brought them there
After some talking, you two agreed that the cats can stay but only on this secret place where no one knows
Of course the two cats had the freedom to go to explore watatsumi island but they mostly stuck to exploring the village and sleeping in Kokomis comfort place
Kokomi quickly began to love those cats and loved seeing them play with each other, she would spawn little water fish for the cats to chase around
OMG imagine if Kokomi would summon her jelly fish for the cats to play with
Also Kokomi def gains energy from hanging out with the cats whenever you are not around but one of her favourite things is you two playing with the cats or cuddling while reading and the cats sleeping on top of you two
✦Shenhe✦
To be honest, you didn't know how she'd react to you bringing a pet on the house, but she didn't really mind
But the longer time she and the cat have spent together she became more calm, yes she's calm most of the time but she didn't have as many homicidal thoughts as before
She found out that, that was a great method to calming her down and distracting her from those thoughts and now whenever you are hanging out with eachother she is most definitely bringing the cat along, petting it while she holds it
Whenever she feels those disturbing thoughts plaguing her, she goes to find the cat that you have brought and play with it, pet it or just cuddle with it
Another habit that she had formed is whenever is time to go to bed the cats NEEDS to sleep besides her while purring, it's just the vibrations form the cats purr just sends her to sleep so easily
Overall, even if she doesn't show it to much she is beyond grateful that you brought that cat into her life and doesn't understand how she was able to live without them

I don’t know if you do Sumeru’s girls; soo if yes : Candace, if not, maybe : Kokomi and any girls of your choice who have lot of prides :D Thank youu <3 ! Have a good day/night
Asking For Her Affection
Tumblr media
Characters: Candace and Kokomi x GN!Reader.
Warnings: A very mild version of jealousy and possesiveness.
Notes: It's the first time I'm writing Candace, so I hope this a nice way to welcome her to my blog! I hope you enjoy this :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The air of the dessert is a little rough on your skin as you stroll through the village. It’s not something you despise. In fact, it adds to the charm of this beautiful place that you’ve learned to love. For it’s kind and hardworking people, for the stars in the bright sky at night, but most of all, for the woman who is gracefully walking next to you now.
You turn to her, a smile dancing on your lips as you see Candace. The people around stop to wave at her, saying words of appreciation or showing her a wound that healed nicely thanks to her advice. Candace’s eyes light up as she receives their words, her own smile the most precious treasure in this side of the desert.
As you watch her thrive among the praises and warm words for her, you feel your chest tighten with affection. You love her more than you can say, the threads of your heart pulling you closer to her until you’re holding her hand in yours. Candace watches you with a light flush as you press a kiss to her hand.
“Feeling affectionate, my heart?” Her smile is radiant, glowing and so familiar.
You kiss her hand again. Then, her arm. Her shoulder. You tug at her lightly so that she’s closer to you. Closer still.
“You could say that.” Your lips caress her skin so gently, almost like the drops of sand caressing the ground below. “Everyone loves you so much, but… I kinda want you all to myself right now.”
Candace’s eyes widen, just a little. She’s usually collected, but no one can read her subtle changes in expression better than you can, after all this time. The faint blush adorning her cheeks isn’t lost to you, either.
“Oh, darling… I’m just not sure this is the appropriate place for such affection.”
You can hear the embarrassment in her voice, just a little. That fuels something within you, a playful side that only comes out when she’s looking at you with those mismatched eyes full of poorly-concealed emotions. You insist.
“Come on, it will be alright.” Your hand  travels up her arm, her shoulder, tracing the line of her clavicle, incessant. “Don’t you want everyone to know how much I adore you?”
You watch the hesitance cross her beautiful eyes, and you wait for the glimpse of her smile. Instead, she shakes her head, lowering your hand with an apologetic stare.
“You know I appreciate your affection endlessly, my heart, but I prefer keeping our love private. I hope you understand."
She says, but you’re still feeling the playful tug in your chest. You pout, hoping to bribe her with your most endearing act. It has worked more times than you thought it would, truthfully.
Candace watches your expression and her eyes soften around the corners. 
"Alright, alright, you win. No need to pout, my dear. I'll give you a kiss when we get home. No, I will give you as many as you desire. Will that suffice?"
She graces your hand with soft fingers, light like the morning breeze over the slopes of the desert, but it’s still not enough.
Just then, you spot Dehya sitting at the tavern you’re just passing by, and a mischievous thought crosses your mind. You really don’t fight the urge.
“If it isn’t Dehya in the flesh,” you begin with a grin, you approach your old friend, leaning over her with glistening eyes. “Would you mind if I sat with you for a minute? In fact, would you mind if I sat on your lap, my friend?”
Dehya’s eyes widen in surprise. You watch her cheeks grow a darker shade, her hand frozen over holding her drink. Before she can reply, you place yourself on her lap, wrapping your arms around her neck, just like you had wanted to do with Candace. Though this time, you exaggerate your movements. You know she’s watching.
Dehya swallows, her voice faint with confusion when she says, “Uh… Sure?”
From the corner of your eye, you watch Candace’s reaction. You find delight in the way her eyes seem to open further, watching you rest your weight on someone that isn’t her. Her mismatched eyes flash with emotions— Amusement, jealousy, and perhaps even a hint of possessiveness. You’re thrilled.
After a few more empty words exchanged with Dehya, you get off her lap and bid her farewell, leaving her stunned and even more flustered. You will buy her a drink later on to make up for the scene you did today.
Grinning from ear to ear, you return to Candace. The playful sigh that leaves her lips is music to your ears.
“Alright, I see what you did there.” She says, giving in and interlacing her fingers with yours. You notice her touch tightening around you, the possessiveness leaking through her perfectly-crafted expression of calmness. You really are delighted. “You win this time.”
Pulling her close, you can’t help but press a kiss on her lips, palming her face with your free hand. Your voice is nothing but sweet when you whisper, “I love you and only you, my dear. I hope you know that.”
And you watch Candace defrost in your hands, her eyes swelling with the same affection that you feel for her.
She smiles, realizing that even though she might feel shy about displaying affection in public, she really can’t resist your playful charm when you make good use of it.
From that day forward, you find a balance between private and public displays of affection, strengthening your bond and making each other feel loved in every possible way, and you adore every single second of it.
Tumblr media
The air is salty and the ocean breeze carries the delightful laughter of Kokomi as you walk down the bustling island of Watatsumi. 
Hand in hand, you enjoy the moment sharing stories and comfortable discussions about any given topic you can think of, your mind and heart at ease with your girlfriend by your side. Part of you knows that she’s not prone to being too affectionate in public, but the other more insistent part of you is really resisting the urge to shower her gentle hands and her lovely features with your loving kisses. You’re trying very hard, honest.
But when you pass by a quaint teahouse, the surroundings less crowded, you can’t help but lean in to her. You place a strand of soft pink hair behind her ear, whispering all too close to her,
“My love… Wouldn't it be fun to steal a kiss right here?"
Kokomi chuckles softly, the beautiful sound echoing through the chambers of your rose-colored heart, and you drink in the embarrassment that blooms in her cheeks at your proximity.
"As much as I'd love to, my dear, I prefer to keep our affection private."
How delightfully disappointing. You tug on her hands, your affection pouring out of you and seeking release. Your voice is a soft thing in her ears.
“Just a little kiss, my dear? No one will notice, I promise.”
But Kokomi shakes her head gently, locks of beautiful pink hair cascading down her back as she speaks, formal and polite and righteous as ever.
"I'm sorry, my love. I'm the Sangonomiya Clan's Divine Priestess, and maintaining a certain image is essential. It's not that I don't want to, but… I do have responsibilities to uphold. You know this."
“Is that how it is…”
For a moment, you’re torn between dropping the subject and teasing her further. But just then, you see a familiar face from the corner of your eye, and you suddenly have no say in the matter.
Your lips curve into a mischievous smile.
“Oh, look! There's Ayaka!” You wave at her enthusiastically, watching her kindly wave back at you, a polite smile dancing on her lips. You wink at Kokomi. "I wonder if she would grant me a little favor."
“What are you—”
You don’t give her the chance to finish the sentence. With quick steps, you’re soon next to Ayaka, playfully taking her hands in yours. Your eyes are a dangerous thing.
“Ayaka, may I have a kiss? Just one, I wouldn’t dare take more from you.”
Ayaka’s face is bright red in an instant. From her neck to the tips of her ears, you find amusement in the deep shade of scarlet that colors her skin, more than taken aback from your unexpected request.
“I— I am— I mean, you— Um—!”
She stammers, and you can’t help the chuckle that leaves your lips. Still with her hands in yours, you raise them up to your lips. Softly, you press a kiss to her gentle skin, leaving her more than flustered.
“There.” Your smile is sweet, innocent even. You let go of her altogether. “Just one, as I promised. I won’t trouble you further, my lady.”
And, with that, you turn on your heels and leave an incredibly flustered Ayaka catching her breath, light in the head.
Going back to Kokomi with a playful grin, you can’t help but notice the protective expression in her eyes. For a moment, you’re afraid you might’ve gone too far with this.
“I was playing, Kokomi. You know I only have eyes for y—”
Kokomi grabs the hem of your shirt and presses her mouth to yours, her lips finding yours with urgency. You close your eyes and let her have her way with you for those seconds that last a lifetime, almost. Then, she pulls away from you, cheeks flustered, brow furrowed.
“Just this once.” The possessiveness in her voice delights you to no end. “But don’t do that again. Promise me.”
And you soften, wanting nothing more than giving her everything she possibly asks of you.
“I promise you, my heart.” Now it’s her hands you’re kissing. Tender, affectionate, not enough for you, just enough for her. “You’re the only one for me, Kokomi.”
You listen to her laugh softly, and your heart soars, relieved that it was all in good fun. 
"You know you're the only one for me too, my love.” She strokes your hand lightly. “I adore you, and I'm glad you understand why I can't be too affectionate in public."
And you choose to understand this time, because you love her more than words can say, and sometimes loving means compromising, too.
"Of course, my heart. Your responsibilities are important, and I respect that. Besides, I wouldn't want to make you uncomfortable.” Your lips grow into a smile, genuine in the motion. “Our love is special, no matter where we are."
Just like that, you continue your walk. As you make your way home, Kokomi leans in and presses a gentle peck on your cheek, a sweet compromise between public decorum and her affection for you, too.
And you can’t help but feel that there is a loving happiness in balance.

Hiii! Can I pretty please req Kokomi, Noelle, Ayaka and Hu Tao with an affectionate reader?
⟢ care to be mine? oh you already are?! ft. noelle, kokomi, ayaka, & hutao! ・sypnosis. how about we go out together, and you'll be mine, and i'll be yours! oh i already know we're together, i like falling in love with you over and over again! ・notes. WOOOO GENSHIN WOMEN!!! im so happy to see this request ngl nsjsdsdsd, anyw thanks for giving me this req!!! ・warnings. fluffy, overly affectionate reader if that counts, implied relationship between character & reader
Tumblr media
THE 77TH FUNERAL DIRECTOR: HU TAO ・YEAHHH SOMEONE MATCHES HER ENERGY!!! definitely whenever she sees you while going on a stroll around town, will open her arms for you to run into to her while tryna hug her back, if you would she loves to give piggyback rides to you too. loves you so much, and so does she!! probably would also run around town in both your free time to prank people, and every successful prank would be one kiss, from the one and only you!! she wants you to be there to see it too!!
・accepts your affection with wide arms, even with you draped around her shoulders, your head resting on hers while she does work is her favorite!! kinda makes her know she's safe, because you're there with her. just know your boundaries, and when is the right time and she'll do the same, loves every bit of your affection, lets her know that at least someone enjoys her little pranks hehe. her being in your warmth is enough to make a bad day go well. you being there to cheer her on is enough to make her face light up, at first the affection was so unexpected, but she was so up for the idea. doesn't care if other people see you and her do all that pda stuff, just lets everyone know your affection is hers. ・probably adopts a cat that you've been feeding everyday near your shared home, absolutey loves it with you, like parents to the cat. names it her favorite dish. always notices when your mood changes to something a bit negative, and that's a go signal for her to be overly affectionate this time!! loves making you smile, then loves it when you hug her in return. kiss her forehead whenever you guys cuddle!! definitely loves it, would try to hide her face away from you so that you wouldn't see the millions of shades in red covering her face. ・probably loves words of affirmation, and acts of service, getting told she's annoying for her pranks isn't exactly a good feeling. but the things you do for her, and the things you do to her, all the praise you give while she's done nothing to deserve it, all the hugs, kisses, and love you give, and she still feels like she has to do more, but assure her that she shouldn't because all you want is her, she'll fall 100% ・the way you got introduced to zhongli was you chasing hu tao around for a kiss probably. then you bump into him, and hu tao comes running at you both, again. and introduces you both, and zhongli is slightly surprised she has a significant other, but is like a proud dad. while you both are rambling to each other like a lovey dovey couple, and he third wheels, he thinks you both fit each other like a jigsaw puzzle, because there should always be someone to love you, even if the rest of the world hates you.
probably would make fun of you whenever you say something cheesy, "for all that it's worth, i'm glad i met you." you'd say while looking up to the setting sun in the distance, "no you aren't." she teases, looking back at you, smiling, "yeah, you're right, i have dreams of you stapling your fingers to your face." "ew!! stop saying that!!"
Tumblr media
THE DIVINE PRIESTESS: SANGONOMIYA KOKOMI ・dream come true to her, probably liked you as soon as you both met, probably sun and moon relationship. she's a bit of both, but she likes it better when you do all the talking, and she does the listening. after somewhat a long period of time that kokomi's been gone, obviously you'd miss her, and she'd miss you. but whenever those long missions finally finish, she loves the feeling when as soon ass you see her, you come running with your arms open just to hug her ・loves mostly anything and everything about you / anything you're willing to give, aka your affection. probably loves whenever you become cheesy with her, makes her flustered.
"Hey I have a day off tomorrow, wanna do anything special?" Kokomi asks, getting up her chair to face you with a bright smile painted on her face, "I just wanna be in your arms, in your presence, anywhere you go, I just wanna be with you." You said, noticing the small tint of rose on her cheeks, "Well, anywhere is alright, just make sure you enjoy yourself there. Your happiness is mine." The eye contact between the both of you, the grin spread across from ear to ear on your face, made her really flustered, "O-okay! I have to go get something really quick, so just wait here and we can talk about where we'll go!" Walking out the room, Kokomi put her head in her hands, she definitely knows you'll treat her right
・whenever she's down, whenever she's failed in something, whenever she feels like she isn't worth anything, and you aren't with her, her mind wanders to all those memories of your smile, and imagines your warm embrace around her, because she knows you mean every word you say, whenever you compliment her, she knows she's at least worth something to someone, always wants to keep you close after those moments. ・matching clothes with her!! like her whole wardrobe got to be matching with yours. loves it whenever you remember the little things about her, like her favorite dish, or what kind of movies she prefers, her spotify playlist on save, or even the flowers she prefers. overthinks a bunch, the question of you both never meeting always comes to mind, but you were a friend of gorou's that just happened to be able to help with a certain mission. ・surprise date nights for those days she's off, but has got off those depressing shifts at work, and the impossible amount of paperwork really just set her off, she wasn't as happy as she was before,
"How about you just follow me okay?" her hand in yours, running towards somewhere, "Okay, but why did you make me dress up?!" her screaming from behind as you led her out to a small table with 2 chairs, decorated with white lilies, kind of like a little cottage in the wild, where no one else would disturb you both. her favorite food set out on the table, along with your own favorite, "Alright, you can open your eyes!" As you let go of her hand, the light reflected off her skin, the vine-decorated ivy cottage right before her eyes, a hopeful gaze looks back to you, "is this.. for me?"
・thanks gorou so many times for introducing the sunshine in her life to help brighten her mood. and thanks the archons that she met such ethereal beauty, and kindness in person in her life, every night, she looks up, and closes her eyes, thanking the people who got her here today, and praises the archons for letting her meet you.

SHIRASAGI HIMEGIMI: KAMISATO AYAKA ・first found you running around with yoimiya plus some children. lighting those little fireworks on a stick at night, and carrying them home once they've fallen asleep, their parents are just real busy people, you and yoimiya had decided to babysit while they were out, for free, and no pay. ayaka was free that day, and made the best decision of wanting to hangout with yoimiya, and to get to know who this wildly attractive person is. ・finds out your name while you blurt lots of stuff out while talking to yoimiya, walking through inazuma with ayaka between you and yoi, looking at what's new, and what you can afford. and what really made her fall is when you asked if she wanted anything, clearly looking hungry, and her answering that she's fine and she doesn't really know what she wanted to order if she was, and you ordered all kinds of dishes and let her try, thought you were really nice about it, especially how you were a little short on money, yet you were more than willing to spend every last dime on her, even if you both just met. ・once you both finally date, yoimiya is more than welcome to be your guys' third wheel on dates, in fact always has been even before you both got together.
"You know, before I asked you out, I asked Ayato & Yoimiya's permission." You said holding her hand and grinning at her, "She did! Was very happy to say yes!!" Yoimiya interrupted, hugging both of you from behind, "And I promised to always be your third wheel when I could!" Laughing your hearts off, Ayaka loved seeing you smile, it made her smile too.
・"You're gonna get hurt!" x "At least I'll have fun!" definitely, kiss attacks on her face once she comes back from somewhere, doesn't do a lot of pda though, will keep your relationship a secret 'till she's ready, she still has a reputation to keep yk? she doesn't mean that in a bad way or anything she just wants to keep you safe, letting enemies know you're her weak spot. doesn't want anything happening to the best thing in her life. ・"you're all i ever want" x "flustered*" purely, lowkey scared of how much affection you give her, it makes her super happy, but scared, scared to accept it, she hasn't opened her heart up to anyone before, but you were very willing to give everything to her, right after meeting her. the way you remember those little details about her make her blush hard. even the first day you met, the meals she liked, anything and everything you mostly knew about her, and she would she could do the same, obviously the standard things about you she remembers, even the little grin you do when you get her blushy with one cheesy pickup line, but all the little details you've observed from just being with her for a short period of time makes her even more thankful to the archons, every night, every day, whenever she can she'll be with you, she'll be in the embrace of you arms.

THE MAID OF THE KNIGHTS OF FAVONIUS: NOELLE ・the sweetest at trying to confess her feelings to you. catches them while you were helping lisa with the books in the library, right after taking them back from late clients. she was skimming through books on how to get stronger, and her eyes wandering off the book, looking up to see the most beautiful person to ever set earth, while watching you turn around to reveal your most luxurious face, to see you both made a bit of eye contact, she ducks down behind her book again. ・once you finally go, she'll come up to lisa with all the books in her hands,
"hey ms. lisa? can i ask who that was?" noelle turns a bit shyly, while slamming the books back on the desk owned by lisa. "oh? are you saying you're interested in them?" lisa smirks, and putting the books below her rounded desk again, "i- no i mean-! that isn't what i meant! i just wanted to... get to know their name, they seem interesting! that's all!" stuttering all over the place, tint of ruby all over her face. "their name is y/n. they live pretty close to here, and in the library often, they help me and jean quite recently, and they've helped a lot, they thought you were pretty cute too, you know." lisa said, getting up and giving noelle her library pass back, sliding it across the desk, "t-thank you.." taking it back, and getting out of the library as fast as she could, at least she knew your name now.
・probably take shifts near your home while patrolling around mondstadt. one time, and the time she finally found out her feeling for you were romantic; she was lowkey getting harassed by a drunk adventurer, who seemed to just get out the tavern, having 1 too many drinks. you immediately coming to defend her, pulling out your weapon, "get lost, weirdo, she doesn't like you." you said trying to escort noelle out of the situation, "oh but i think she does.. she's blushing, and it's all because of me, alright? you should get lost, because we were having a moment here. i'm an adventurer, hic-! don't intimidate me!!" he screams, "anyways sweetheart, come on.. you just accepted me asking you out, let's go-" slapping his arm harshly off her waist, "dude can't you see she's mad uncomfortable?! she doesn't want you around her! so get the hell out of here!" the shiny vision hung around your waist was already making him cower. "damn alright.. jeez, see you around, sweetheart." the creep walks away, "you hurt or anything? your name is noelle right?" you ask, while checking if the man did anything bad to her while she wasn't in your sights, "i-i'm alright! how do you know my name, if i may ask?" she asks, pushing her hair behind her ear, "i'm y/n, and i asked lisa, you shouldn't worry." ・she confessed through your similar interests in books, a library date, she asked you out through letters, heartfelt words were spilt onto the paper. the way you give her everything you can in terms of affection makes her feel safe, the way you defend her makes her feel like she can trust you all the much more. falls in love over and over again when receiving your bear hugs, feeling your hands wrap around her feels like she's the luckiest woman in the world. when your soft lips hits her cheek, she will melt in your arms. every kind of love you give her makes her blush all the time. ・your small smile after your lips and hers crash makes her wanna smile too, your small kisses on the forehead made her become a tomato, your kisses printed on her neck send shivers down her spine, your affection makes her feel wanted and valid. she always wanted to feel wanted, she wants her feelings to be valid, your affection makes her feel 100 different emotions, loves everything you do, supports everything you do, pretty okay with pda, just blushes madly whenever it happens. ・"quiet & shy" x "affectionate & extroverted social butterfly"

Them reacting to their usually stoic s/o hugging them
Characters: Mona/Kokomi/Beidou x gn!reader (separate)
Warnings: none, just fluff
a/n: I haven't written Mona and Beidou in what felt like a century, so if I got some parts of their characters wrong, I'm really sorry.
Anyway, hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
Mona
It was fair to say that Mona hadn’t expected you to suddenly throw your arms around her and pulling her close to you. Sure, she may have been the one always telling you how showing a few more emotions from time to time would help you when it came to conveying your intentions and feelings to other people, but that didn’t stop her from freezing up the moment you pressed her head against your chest.
“W-What are you doing?!”, the Astrologer angrily demanded to know as she tried her best to free herself from your grasp, causing your grip on her to grow stronger and eventually making her stop struggling. And as silence filled the room, Mona felt her face grow red with embarrassment, as she begrudgingly admitted to herself that being held by you like this wasn’t that bad.
“I’m hugging you”, you eventually stated matter-of-factly, your calm voice not revealing any hint of shame.
Were you stupid enough to not realise that it was a rhetorical question or were you just messing with her? Mona couldn’t tell, and she honestly wasn’t too sure which possibility bugged her more.
“That’s- I know that you are, but why?”, she asked, trying her best to somewhat keep her composure, even if it got increasingly more difficult with each passing moment.
“You are asking why? Weren’t you the one telling me to show a bit more emotions from time to time?”, you countered her question with one of your own.
“Yeah, but that didn’t mean- I didn’t-”, Mona tried to find the right way to respond, only to eventually let out a sigh and finally relax.
“Is something the matter?”, you eventually asked, slightly pulling back to look at Mona’s red face, only for her to hide it in your chest before shaking her head.
“No, it’s fine.”
Tumblr media
Kokomi
While Kokomi couldn’t help but be surprised, when you embraced her the moment you saw how exhausted she looked, that didn’t mean that she didn’t like it, quickly melting into it. Don’t get her wrong, she still loved your usual stoic behaviour, since just being in the same room as you instantly helped her calm down, no matter how stressed she felt before, your calm attitude rubbing off on her, but being hugged by the person she loved after a long day of work was about the best way to make her day better.
“Is something the matter?”, Kokomi surprisingly managed to form a coherent sentence. While she was known for writing pages upon pages, telling her subordinates to do in any possible case, even the master-strategist hadn’t expected you to hug her.
“You looked like you needed a hug”, you responded, instantly causing a tired smile to make its way onto the divine priestess’ face. Only for it to vanish the moment you slightly pulled back. “Or was I wrong to assume that?”, you asked in an uncertain voice, causing her to not waste a second to answer with a resounding “no” before quickly leaning against you once again, wanting to enjoy the hug while it lasted.
And while neither of you had a problem with remaining in your current position, before long, you realised, that Kokomi began leaning against you more and more, causing you to suspect that her exhaustion might have caught up with her and she was starting to fall asleep.
“You should go to bed. I doubt falling asleep like this would be a good idea.”
Your suggestion, no matter how logical it appeared to be in your mind, quickly got shot down by the divine priestess, as once again shook her head. “No, no. It’s fine, I’m simply taking a small rest…”, she tried assuring you, only for her voice to grow weaker and weaker with each word, until by the time she had finished her sentence, she had already fallen asleep. Leaving you to try and somehow bring her to bed without waking her up.
Tumblr media
Beidou
You always were the first one to greet her whenever the Crux returned to Liyue harbour, and while your actions weren’t the most expressive in the whole of Teyvat, Beidou’s one eye was enough for her to see that you were happy to have her back, even if others didn’t pick up the signs.
So, when she returned from a voyage that lasted much longer than anticipated, only to see you approach her the moment she had solid ground under her feet again, she fully knew you were once again going to greet her, what she didn’t expect though, was that you’d hug her the moment she was in reach.
“Oh wow, someone seemed to have missed me a lot”, she jokingly teased before quickly returning the hug, having recovered from the shock of your uncharacteristic action much faster than even she expected.
“I did. You were gone for much longer than usual”, you stated calmly, only for the captain to shoot you an apologetic smile.
“I can perfectly control my crew and fleet, but unfortunately not even I managed to gain control over the oceans yet”, she responded before a sudden idea flashed inside her mind, causing her to pull back just enough to make eye contact with you. “Hey, how about you join us for a few drinks? We have more than enough stories about our voyage to tell”, Beidou suggested, only to smile when you gave her a small nod.
But before you had the chance to pull away, Beidou’s grip grew stronger as she lifted you, not much, but still enough to stop the tips of your toes from touching the ground, hoping to get a surprised reaction out of you. But if you were surprised, you did an excellent job at hiding it, since the only look she got out of you was your usual calm one, nevertheless, she began carrying you into the direction of her crew’s made up meeting place, not intending to let you leave until you heard all of their new stories.

can i have a hug? ☆
feat. | childe, sucrose, zhongli, kokomi, and ningguang! summary | sitting near each other, but not touching, had always been what you did. but it’s been a shitty, exhausting day, and you wanted a hug.  author's note | i hope you enjoy!! ive been really tired lately and this was totally self-indulgent.. but anyway! and jj, as per your request: @genshin-impact-writings
tartaglia | 
he stiffens at first, when you lean against him and bury your face in the crook of his neck. he relaxes, though, wrapping you in his warm embrace. 
you end up sagging against him (kind of a half-slump towards the ground) and he tightens his arms around you. “i’m so tired,” you mumble into his chest. 
he smiles against your head and bends down. and with one quick swoop, he lifts you into his arms in a sort of bridal carry (though you’re protesting, you’re laughing so hard you can barely breathe) and carries you to the couch, setting you down. he tickles you, causing you to gasp out, “stop! truce! enough!”
he sits next to you, smiling. you lean against him, laughing still. “feeling better?”
when you nod, he kisses your cheek. “good.”
sucrose | 
the sweetie that she is, she blushes when you loop your arms around her neck and drape against her.
she’ll stroke your hair or pat your back, not quite sure of what to do. she tries her hardest though, sweet thing. 
eventually, you’ll tug her against your shoulder and the two of you spend ages like that, tucked in each other’s arms. she looks peaceful like this; her face relaxed and her brow smooth. joy wells up inside you, tamping down your earlier unhappiness about your day. 
she traces the lines of your face with her finger, smiling slightly when you pepper her cheeks with kisses. “i love you,” you say into her ear.
“i love you too,” she whispers, burrowing against you.
ningguang | 
ningguang’s the one that notices how agitated you look. she pulls you towards her, sighing. she’ll run her fingers over your shoulders and kiss your cheek. she wants you to laugh and smile.  
you kiss her, relaxing against her and taking her hand. she threads her fingers through yours, squeezing your hand. 
she lets you sit like that, her arm draped over your shoulders, your face pressed into her shoulder. 
she doesn’t mind it; in fact, she makes sure you’re as comfortable as possible, urging you to lay down. you give in, and she smoothes your hair away from your forehead, your head resting in her lap.
she winks at you. “rest well. we can go out to dinner tomorrow.”
zhongli | 
his voice is low and soft when he asks you if you’re okay when you lean in for hug and all the strength goes out of your limbs. you lean all your weight against him and he stiffens slightly. 
he relaxes, though, wrapping you firmly in his arms. he’ll press a kiss to the top of your head, or your forehead. it’s clear how tired you are, your eyes drifting shut even as you smile at him. 
he’ll take care not to move you at all, the sappy romantic he is, and you’ll fall asleep like that. although it’s kind of uncomfortable for him, he doesn’t mind.
when you wake up, he smiles at you. “sleep well?” 
he insists on you sleeping more and leads you to the bed. he makes sure you’re comfortable first before he settles down. you fall asleep in seconds, and he tucks the covers over you. 
sangonomiya kokomi | 
kokomi lets you settle against her. “ah, hard days. i know all about those,” she says softly, stroking your cheek. 
her touch is cool on your skin, and, as she works, you sit with her, making sure to not disturb her too much. 
at one point, you shift your position, and she looks up, alarmed. “oh, were you not comfortable?” 
after assuring her that you were, she settles back again, threading her fingers through your hair. she hums softly as she works, the noise a soothing backdrop to your thoughts. 
she’s so gentle with you, and so sweet. and you do the same in return. <3

Fish out of water
Kinktober bonus no. 3
Pairing: kokomi/gn reader
AN: I’m just kinda rambling abt eating out the pretty fish lady.
Kinktober masterlist
Tumblr media
she’s whiny as hell during sex but esp when you eat her out.
Let her lay back and mindlessly hump your face while you suck on her clit and she’ll fall apart.
I don’t think she likes being fingered while you eat her out. Not bc it doesn’t feel good, it does, she just prefers taking it nice and slow. And it takes way longer for her to cum if you’re not fingering her.
Kokomi bordered on godly in her current state. Her face flushed and mouth agape as she rolls her hips against your mouth. The smooth skin of her thighs holding your head in place as you licked eagerly at her slit. Her sticky release coating your mouth and chin as you push her towards her next orgasm. Your hands on her were gentle as they always were, a stark contrast to the vigour with which you were eating her out.

Relationship hcs or something pt.2 w/ Thoma, Kokomi, Kirara
Includes: gn!reader, my little to no knowledge about Kirara so I'm very sorry if I portray her wrong, mentions about other characters, in Kirara's part reader is some sort of youkai too(your choice I don't mention anything, except some sort of unusual parts[tail, ears, horns your choice])
Here's part 1 and part 3:D
Thoma:
The moment Thoma understood he likes you more than a friend, he started baking and cooking for you every day
He would bring you dinner, lunch or even breakfast with small letters that contained some compliments or a "good day :)"
After some time when he decided that he wants to confess he did it through letters
But each meal he brought had only one word in his letter
"I" "would" "like" "to" "go" "out" "with" "you" "please"
Later when your relationship ship began, you told him that all the letters he gave you, you kept
Also the moment kamisato siblings found about you, Ayaka immediately liked you and Ayato couldn't help but tell all embarrassing things he saw Thoma do
But they both are very fond of you and treat you like family
Kokomi:
Since she's usually very busy and spends her free time to relax in that cave thingy, she met you there
Since then you and her were regularly meeting for some coffe or tea to talk about your everyday life as youkai but then the meetings were later and became more like little dates that became a full time relationship
Since your curiosity won the fight called "should I go in ther or not?" you certainly didn't expect to see Divine Priestess going in there
Yet from that meeting was born your relationship
At first it was only once per month you were spending time together there
Then it became once per two weeks, then one and finally everyday
Then Kokomi was simply sad and less energetic without you next to her
But was too shy and embarrassed to tell you so she tried to ignore it
So you decided to take matter in your own hands and confessed to her
At first she didn't know how to react so next day Gorou brought you a letter and gave you a small apology from her that she ran away
Later on you became her new safe place, someone who she could show her true self and share her thoughts
Kirara:
Kirara met you when someone from your home brought something through Komaniya Express
At first she delivered it with big smile on her face but then it got even larger when she saw that you're too a youkai
In a split second she asked like 20 questions about your body and type of youkai you are
Shocking you beyond explanation of course
Of course she dragged you to work with her in Komaniya Express so you can spend more time together
Tumblr media
Oh damn, I'm really surprised how quickly so many people liked the first one lol

one day, i know that you will be there - kokomi & gn!reader
summary: "it was nice. you wanted to talk to her, but… something was always stopping you. maybe it was the worry of ruining this– whatever it was. you couldn’t name it, but just simply being with someone was so special to you." of late afternoon hours, libraries and friendships.
tags: platonic, modern au, reader is implied to have health issues. the experience of simply existing in the same space and forming a friendship <3 in general a rather cozy and fluffy piece of work
notes: hello. yes this is a repost because i realized this post just doesn't show up in the tags. buuut yeah this is a gift for @k4saneterritory for @astronetwrk secret santa, sorry for the double tag but tumblr is being a little ass aaand yeah <3 have a good day everyone!!
Tumblr media
In the late afternoon hours, the busy life of the library was starting to calm down. Students were packing their schoolbooks and notebooks, finishing studying for the day. Younger kids, leaving with a bunch of books in their hands after spending the past minutes checking every single book for the one to take home, yet not being able to pick just one. An older lady holding an old, romance book, finishing her conversation with the librarian. Everything was calming down, the late sun shining through the curtains, dust visible in the sunlight, the smell of old paper filling up your senses, as you walked inside.
You walked to your usual spot, deeper inside the library and next to a window, and sat down on the plush chair. You took your books from your bag, pencils, water, and snacks to keep you awake and opened the heavy textbook, preparing yourself for your own study session.
It was your little habit, of coming here two hours before the closing time and studying till evening, in the peacefulness of the library and its comfort. That, and…
You noticed that with you, another person was coming during late hours. She was taking her spot near you, always planting different books on the small table and reading them, just like you, until closing hours. 
It felt… nice. You didn’t know each other, only by your looks, by her books and your textbooks, only by the way you two were. Always a constant in your life, always something to look forward to every day. 
She had long, pinkish hair with light blue ends that reminded you of cotton candy. She wore glasses on a chain, always dressed nicely but comfortably, and so many of her things were themed after ocean and sea life. And so were her books. 
Some of them were about life deep, deep in the waters of oceans, and some were not– those books were usually… about history. History of medicine, of military strategies, you name it. And another some were simple novels, the ones you saw your classmates read in their free time.
She seemed interesting. She seemed nice. You two never spoke.
She wasn’t big on bringing any kind of snacks, unlike you (it… was a library after all.) usually opting on just bringing water. She was already there every time you came to the library and you were always leaving before her, twenty minutes before the closing time. 
It was nice. You wanted to talk to her, but… something was always stopping you. Maybe it was the worry of ruining this– whatever it was. You couldn’t name it, but just simply being with someone was so special to you.
It continued for quite a long time. Sun started to hide behind the horizon faster, fewer people were coming and spending their time, deciding to spend it in the warmth of their houses, the warm sunlight stopped shyly peeking through the curtains, hiding behind the gray clouds, letting rain knock on the windows. It was getting darker. One thing never changed.
You and that girl. 
(Somehow, you couldn’t help but think she looked like a mermaid if she was a human. It was the hair. The ocean motif everywhere. Her clothing. Maybe your sleep deprivation and tiredness from studying. The thought made you smile every time.)
It was nice. Really nice. A little comfort in your life that you needed so badly, somehow, a reminder that things weren’t so bad as you sometimes thought. 
You would pay everything and do anything for it to never change.
(Things did. Of course they did, because nothing in life lasts forever unchanged. But they changed for the better, you liked to think.)
Tumblr media
It was terribly cold that day, probably the coldest day in the span of the last three weeks and, well, it was understandable because winter was already coming and of course weather was getting worse, but you still absolutely hated it.
You wished for warm weather to come back. Not only you had to wear fewer layers of clothing, but you were in general feeling better about your body and health and the cold, wind, and rain that was now greeting you everytime you left the school building was not helping you. A part of you wanted to stay at home, not go to the library and study preferring the warmth of your home, but you were going either way.
And to your surprise, the spot that was usually taken by the library mermaid (as you.. called her once, barely awake and full of dumb ideas) was empty.
You stared at it, feeling a pang of disappointment in your chest. 
It was still a literal miracle that she showed up daily for the three– almost four past months, one day wasn’t a big deal. Besides, the weather was terrible, so you understood her absence. Still, it did ruin your mood a little and yet you didn’t let it stop you from studying as always. 
Your teachers were giving you so much work, that you started to, jokingly, obviously, think about dropping it all and maybe taking a year-long holiday, somewhere on a sunny beach, away from the exams and tons of assignments. 
Not that you could. But you could always dream, that wasn’t yet banned.
You unpacked your stuff and took your usual place and you started studying. You weren’t feeling well, the pain and cold, still deep inside your bones were enough to distract you. You wanted to rest for a moment– you needed a rest to gather yourself up and continue studying, but this was not the comfort of your own bed, but a library. 
Instead, you decided to snack on the sweets you bought to keep you awake and continued to study. Writing notes down was easy, all you had to do was read the text, shorten it in your head, and write it down in your notebook.
You read the text for the first time. It barely made sense. You read it again, and it still made barely sense. You took a deep breath and gave it a third try, only to still not understand any of it.
You blinked. Looked around. With no one paying attention to you, you placed your arms on the table and placed your head on them, closing your eyes. A moment of rest surely would do you well, right? Maybe it wasn’t the smartest of you to take a library nap right after trying to wake yourself up with sweets– it kinda felt like going to sleep right after drinking coffee– but you couldn’t bring yourself to care about it.
A small nap wouldn’t hurt, you thought to yourself.
A small nap meant five or ten minutes at the maximum of rest, not a good hour of sleep on the uncomfortable chair, with your head twisted and back all curved, begging for back pains later.
(There was a saying about naps, something in your head told you. You couldn’t seem to remember it at that time.)
When you finally awoke, you looked around and were greeted by a pair of blue eyes, with the smallest specks of cotton candy pink and a small, a little nervous smile.
“Excuse me, but I saw that you were sleeping and I didn’t want to leave you alone…” Her voice was soft, light, and she sounded a little shy, and– somehow very how you imagined.
Right in front of you was sitting the very girl with whom, for the past weeks, you had been sharing your late afternoon study sessions.
Her name was Kokomi, you learned. She was a high school senior, just like you. She attended history and social science class, but also took interest in marine biology. She had been using her free time in the library as a way to unwind, relax after stressful times in school, and she liked reading. She noticed you sleeping and was worried about someone taking your stuff, so she quietly sat down on the second chair and decided to wait until you woke up, in the meantime reading one of the books she brought with her. 
She was soft-spoken. You noticed that she had earrings in the shape of fins, in similar colors to her hair, with the addition of soft purples. You noticed a granola bar next to your notebook, one that you didn’t bring with you. It was hers, she said, but thought you might want something to eat. 
You didn’t study anymore that day, no.
But you did the next day, with Kokomi waving to you the moment you appeared within her sight. You asked if she would like to sit with you and it surprised her, but after a moment she said yes and you didn’t really talk, just focusing on your own things and… simply enjoying each other company.
It was weird. Maybe, no, not weird. New. Something you weren’t yet used to. You were used to sitting alone, not having anyone to talk to but not feeling lonely, knowing that someone else was here with you, busy with their own life but always here. Now the said person was next to you and you weren’t alone anymore, you had someone next to you and even though it was awkward at first, you didn’t really know how to talk– and neither it seemed like any of you wanted to talk much, actually– you… enjoyed it. 
Simply being next to each other.
With time, you started to converse. About many things, really.
It started slowly with Kokomi seeming like someone who doesn’t really want to talk while relaxing and you respected it, of course you did, but sometimes you would notice something about her, maybe about her books or maybe her beautiful, pastel and ocean-themed phone case and sometimes, you would talk. Sometimes you wouldn’t, deciding to simply sit in silence.
With time, your conversations became longer. About your studies, your interests, about the food you liked– you learned Kokomi didn’t like seafood– about your plans for tomorrow, about her own plans, about her books and her favourite novels. You enjoyed talking with her, the friendship between you blooming with each day. You enjoyed simply spending time with her when neither of you had the energy to talk.
With time, she started to bring you some healthier snacks than the ones you would bring, after noticing that your health was… well, a rather fickle thing. She started to remind you to not overwork yourself and to drink and eat, because with a tired mind, you wouldn’t learn much. 
(Those were the words of her teacher, she said.)
With time, you learned to notice when she was feeling down and needed some time to herself. You never tried to start a conversation during these times, instead opting to sit in comfortable silence and let her recharge. 
With time, you exchanged phone numbers. At first, it was just to notice the other if one of you would get late or wouldn’t be able to come at all, with the weather getting colder and the sun setting down even faster. But you also started talking more in general, sending each other things you were interested in, and even planning hangouts outside the library when you both had time, energy and the weather was nice enough.
In no way you expected to become friends with Kokomi and in no way you could ever regret it. It was a friendship you held close to your heart, in the gentle embrace of your hands.

Yandere! Student council member! kokomi
Admire profile
🫧 Kokomi is the brains of the student council, always planning out strategies to better improve the quality of the school for the students benefit.
🫧Meaning that she’s in charge of handling the internal afffairs of students and teachers alike. Her main job to mediate conflict between the clubs and stabilize the peace amongst the student public.
🫧 Has the authority to target students and either reward or punish them depending on their behavior. Which can range from granting them an honorary position in the student council to giving them a temporary 1-3 day expulsion from the school.
🫧 Since Kokomi’s very popular amongst the student body she has unlimited access to reliable networking. With just a few phone calls with her people outside of school she’ll be able to use anything to her disposal to make things go smoothly.
🫧 She’s a bit of a control freak despite finding the generous amount responsibility handed to her to be burdensome. So if she feels as if she’s not in control then over time she will start to become more unhinged with trying to balance the scales.
🫧Restless nights of meticulous planning for academic events to promote the school from orchestrating festivals to field trips to calculating budgets will cause her to be exhausted. But on the outside you’ll never know as she’ll just put on a smile, masking what she’s truly feeling inside.
🫧 Which is why She finds you very endearing with how you try so hard to see through what she’s hiding from the others. As She’s the type to always wear a mask in order to hide the turbulence of emotions and secrets she keeps buried deep inside.
🫧 Kokomi is someone who can easily get burnt out from preventing the multiple obstructions derailing the school from perfection and during those times she’d like to recharge by doing fun relaxing activities with her darling.
🫧 She loves having tea with you and finds it so therapeutic serving her special tea recipe she created just for your indulgence, and savoring how adorable you look when you swoon over the peculiar taste in a trance.
🫧 Often times she’d ask for you to help run her daily errands around the city after school leading you by the hand to places where it’s less populated and congested.
🫧 When she’s on her day off she’ll gain the confidence to ask you to have an outing with her on the beach just to casually stroll alongside the coast at night where everything is tranquil and quiet with only her and you in a world of your own.
🫧Other times if you’d ever need to find her just search any nearby libraries as she’s a bookworm in her own right who just loves to have knowledge readily at her fingertips.
🫧She has eyes and ears everywhere around the school, if you ever cross her then you’d be playing a game of chess where you’d always lose with a tiny margin of error.
🫧 She’d be able to foresee your every move and plan your downfall in a hundred different ways. Unless you have established a relationship with info-kun who’s one of the many few that can match her in a battle of wits.

Hi, could you do an NSFW for a sub male reader with Ayaka and Kokomi? I’m curious to see how the situation would play out when the roles are reversed :P
Kokomi & Ayaka x Sub!Male!Reader headcanons
A/N: Hi Anon! I didn't know how to bite into this request at first, but I decided on making a headcanon-like format. Sorry if this is a little chaotic because of that. Anyway, enjoy!
CW: Bondage, Male!Reader.
NSFW under the cut.
Tumblr media
Kamisato Ayaka
Ayaka is a very gentle dom, which comes from her naturally shy nature. 
Constantly asks you if what she's doing is okay with you until she learns your preferences.
She's not really into hard domination, like using honorifics. She feels like calling her anything other than her name (endearments aren't allowed for subs) puts uncomfortable distance between you. 
Ayaka isn't into real bondage. The most she's going to do is tie your hands behind your back with a hairband or some silk ropes. 
Because it's not seeing you tied and vulnerable that gets her going - it's the knowledge that you do it willingly. 
She knows that, at any point, you could break the bindings, lift her up and take revenge for all that pussy rubbing and teasing she does. Yet you don't. And that's what's hot in it for Ayaka. 
Despite being the sub, you'll be the top in bed most of the time, because Ayaka likes being the bottom. But still, you'll have a nice collar or some soft rope around your cock, or even better - lightly stretching your sack. Just so you don't forget who's really in charge. 
She'll mark you outside of bed as well. You'll get luxurious clothing and jewelry, all containing some rendition of the Kamisato crest so everyone can see who you belong to. 
After some decent time, you'll get to see Ayaka's '"evil'" side. All of her life she had been jealous of other couples, and now that she has you, she's going to give everyone a taste of their own medicine. The clothes you'll wear will be custom made. More often than not the garderobe she picks for you reveals even a small part of your chest. All of this to make other girls jealous of Ayaka's 'snack'. 
Expect any trousers she'll get you to be a little on the tighter side. Not too tight, but small enough to make your bulge more visible. 
Ayaka will also make sure to hold your hand, so others know you're already taken. 
She loves you, and would like to show it by appreciating your whole body. She can do that now, since you're unwilling unable to resist. 
Expect three-hour long baths with Ayaka constantly hovering over you. She is the dominant here, so it's her duty to keep her little pet nice and clean. Also, it's a great opportunity to touch every single inch of your skin. 
She'll gently wash your hair, clean you up and down with a sponge, clip your nails and shave both your face and your cock to her own liking. 
These procedures could be done by you or any of her servants, but nothing gives her more pleasure than getting to take care of you. 
This lasts so long because poor Ayaka gets distracted two or three times during it. You're just so irresistible…
Sangonomiya Kokomi
Kokomi is the leader of Watatsumi, and the commander of its army. She has a lot of men under her command, willing to give or do anything for her. But having one of them, especially someone as special as you, to do with as she pleases is entirely something else. 
She prefers to be the bottom, as she likes being the one to lie back as you think for her. But if you like being bottom, she'll oblige. 
Don't expect your relationship outside of sexy time to change. Kokomi puts quite a thick wall between the two. 
Since she has power over you, it’s obvious she’ll make a few rules. 
Expect to lose the right to wear a shirt when you’re at home. Your chest, stomach and back, be they muscular or not, are her favorite eye candies. And if you spend a day inside together, the privilege of having clothes will be completely revoked. 
Good luck trying to do anything requiring more than an hour in that predicament. Kokomi reserved herself the right to use you whenever she wants, and she is willing to act on that. 
You’ll be cooking something, and suddenly you’ll feel a pair of hands roaming around your stomach under the apron, and a soft pair of lips on your back. 
Most of the time, you’ll have vanilla sex with Kokomi on top, doing most of the work and setting the pace. 
There are, obviously, times when she’s feeling a little kinkier. 
Kokomi loves the noises you make. She doesn’t get a lot of them during standard sessions of bouncing up and down your cock, and the priestess feels it’s a real shame. Nobody makes cuter sounds than you.
You’ll be on a first name basis with handcuffs. As your hands will be tied behind your back, you’ll become Kokomi’s instrument. 
Her tools? A bullet vibe and some lube.
God she gets so wet at your whines and moans as the vibrator buzzes away at your cock head. She loves how you cry when she pulls it away, just in time to avoid a cum leakage. 
Until Kokomi’s ears are pleased, there’s no cumming for you. And that can be a very, very long time.
If she’s not in the mood, but still wants to enjoy your body, she’ll grab some rope and tie you up very nicely. Shibari is quite the kink for her.
If you see no problem with that, Kokomi will snap a few pictures of your bound and gagged form. Don’t worry - they’ll end up only in her personal little album, to go through when you’re away.
Tumblr media
Thanks for reading!

hii mr. Cosmic!! im luma from ying’s server!! i was wondering if i could request a kokomi x gn!reader where reader gets injured and she patches them up, maybe leading to a confession? ty in advance and take ur time <33
Thank you for the ask Luma! And I most certainly can!
NOW YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND!!!
Tumblr media
“Again?” Kokomi thought to herself as she watched you limp through the night of watatsumi island.
This was not the first time you had injured yourself and tried to hide it from her.
It probably wouldn’t be the last either!
She would think that you would be a lot more open with her considering how long the two of you had known each other.
But no! You were just as bull headed about everything as when you and her first met!
She was going to give you a piece of her mind!
She was going to heal you, and then, while doing that she was going to berate you!
Just like all the other times she’s *had* to heal you.
Sure, she trusts the doctors and healers on the island but you were special.
So that meant she was the only one who could heal you!
She didn’t make the rules, she just had to follow them.
Well, she did make the rules but that’s unimportant!
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You hissed quietly with every step.
That Traveler person was good.
You still won the spar, but something told you another important fight was about to come up.
Probably one with Kokomi about your injuries.
It wasn’t anything major, just a couple of broken bones, some lightheadedness, and a bit of trouble breathing.
Still, she’d make a fuss out of it like she always had.
You weren’t complaining by any means, you loved to have her around.
Still, you do wish she’d take breaks more often.
It wouldn’t do for her having to be taken care of by you.
That would end only in disaster.
A disaster the both of you would enjoy for sure.
A disaster that would cause political shockwaves across Inazuma however, would best be avoided.
You heard familiar footsteps behind you and you turned around, ready to give your greeting and to be chewed out.
“Heya Ko-'' you began before stopping, and noticing several things.
Were there always two Kokomi’s?
How long has it been since you last breathed in?
Why was everything going dark?
You then promptly collapsed.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
When you awoke for the first time, it was to Kokomi looking at you like she had just lost and found you again, tears in her eyes and blood on her hands and face.
You tried to tell her not to cry but blacked out again before you could.
After that, it was a constant switch between barely conscious and completely unconscious.
And the only constant in all of that was Kokomi watching over you.
It was comforting to see that.
To know that someone like her was watching over you.
Then one night, you managed to wake up for real.
You had been interred in the main sleeping room of the Sangonomiya estate.
You had been interred in Kokomi’s room.
Why did that make you feel so warm in the face?
Wait, Kokomi!
Never mind that, who knows how long you have been out!
You needed to see Kokomi, to let her know you were alright!
You attempted to sit up but then something pulled you down.
That something being the slender arms of a certain priestess.
A certain priestess who forced you to face her despite her being asleep.
A certain priestess who looked very much different from the way she usually did.
Bags under her eyes, her beautiful hair losing color, skin going pale from exhaustion.
Was this all because of you?
Before you could continue that train of thought, Kokomi began to speak in her sleep.
“Please… no… please don’t leave… I… I love you, you idiot!” she muttered in fear, seemingly in the middle of a nightmare.
“Idiot” that was something she only ever called you…
That would have to wait, Kokomi was having a nightmare.
In your opinion, that needed to stop.
You tried to gently shake her awake.
It did not work.
You tried to shake her a little harder, it did not work.
You then did something that only ever worked in fairy tales.
You closed your eyes, and you kissed her.
For a moment Kokomi went still, then she kissed you back.
The two of you held the kiss for a long while, but then, the trifling need for oxygen forced the two of you apart.
Then as soon as you regained your breath and before Kokomi could say anything you pulled her close to you and blurted out.
“I love you Sangonomiya Kokomi! I have for years!”
Kokomi was silent for a moment before tightening her grip on you and saying through tears “I love you too you idiot, so please, never get hurt like that again… my heart could not bear it.”

DUSK TIL DAWN AND REPEATED
Tumblr media
warnings — nil
characters — hawks x reader, kokomi x reader, kazuha x reader
a/n — domestic fluff with the three & a small set of drabbles for @catcze ‘s birthday!! i broke my non-bnha writing thingy…. hehehe i hope u like it darling <3 happy birthday!!!
Tumblr media
| hawks ; takami keigo // MORNING
waking up to hawks beside you is always such a treat. one that you’d be endlessly grateful for.
it’s the quiet innocence in him as he starts to stir, soft groans as the sunlight hits his eyes as his hands start to search their way into your own.
“good morning, birdie.” he mumbles, hiding his face into your chest, sleepily humming as you run your fingers through his hair. soft sighs of contentment are heard and felt as he burrows into you even more.
waking up with him is typically a debate as to whether or not the five more minutes is a thing of the household for that morning, or not. today.. yes, it is, you decide.
“five more minutes..” you whisper back, your turn to cuddle and bury your face straight into him. he rubs your back gently, watching you exhale the last of the night’s sleepiness and start to accustom your body to the new day.
“five more minutes.”
| sangonomiya kokomi // AFTERNOON
afternoons with kokomi are usually filled with laughter and smiles and afternoon tea-time, with green tea and some colourful dango that you brought back from inazuma city. or taiyaki, straight from the pan of rei-san’s dessert stall.
today, it was watching her scurry about the sangonomiya residence, brows furrowed as she racks her brain with the stress of the resistance.
“hey, mermaid. take a break.” you glance at her, watching her melt at the nickname and move to sit next to you. you could feel her exhaling.
“thank you, (y/n).”
“how about we have some tea?” kokomi’s face visibly lights up, and you make your move to the kitchen.
“maybe we could make the one that we tried the last time? the one that you brought back from komore teahouse.” she suggests, a soft smile gracing her features. mission accomplished, y/n — that (still cute) furrowed brows were gone.
one, two teabags go straight in, with half the kettle of boiling water. just how the both of you enjoy it — together.
| kaedahara kazuha // NIGHT
nights with kazuha are almost always spent with the two of you cuddling in bed, him usually spooning as he hugs you to sleep, comforted by your familiar warmth.
it’s almost always filled with a scented candle, the smell of kazuha’s fresh clothes combining into the loveliest scent you’ve ever wanted to keep. it was familiar — warm, cosy, lovely, all in one.
“go to sleep, maple leaf.” he whispers, running his fingers through your hair and gently massaging your shoulder with his free hand.
you glance up at him briefly and you can see a small smile on his face, corners reaching higher as he noticed you looking at him. he presses a kiss to your
“good night, kazuha.” a small contented smile plastered on your face. you lived for these small moments, and whether kazuha noticed or not didn’t matter to you.
“good night, (y/n).”

M.U.S.E Event Case 009. Kokomi x Female Reader
◇ Report submitted by: Moderator Angel on ▇▇▇▇.
temporary paralysis, reader almost gets stabbed in the nose
Tumblr media
CASE FILE. MUSE-009
CLASS. MERMAID
SEVERITY. 3/10
DESCRIPTION. The fishermen of Watatsumi island have been complaining of a mysterious sea creature slashing their nets whenever they go out to fish. Every time they reel the nets up, they always come up empty with nothing but a gaping hole, the faint shimmering of pearlescent pink scales, and no fish. Villagers have taken it upon themselves to call for a monster hunter to remove this unknown creature.
Tumblr media
“Ugh, sushi? No thanks.” You waved your hand dismissively at your coworker and eyed the mission board instead. “You go on ahead. I think I’m gonna take another job for some extra cash.”
“You sure?” Your coworker Thoma only stared at you in disbelief. It had been ages since you last took a break for dinner, and he was half tempted to change his dinner plans to something you did like in order to get you to take a break for once in your life. He can’t help it! He’s worried about your workaholic attitude!
“We could…go to that other restaurant you like so much. Don’t their rice bowls sound tempti–”
“This one!”
Thoma watched as you tore a job listing off the board and smiled with newfound glee. “Heh, ironic you brought up sushi beforehand, Thoma, cuz this job is an aquatic creature.” 
“Ah…a merperson?” Thoma broke into a cold sweat at your excitement. “You really want to go to the coast at this time of night?” He worried over you like a mother who couldn’t let go. “No silly, the island I’m going to is at least a day’s trip away, I need to prepare some equipment tonight before I go.”
“Oh phew. So you can go to dinner tonight?” Poor Thoma sounded like an excited puppy. 
“What? Dinner?” You literally laughed out loud at his statement. “Oh Thoma, you jokester!”
Thoma was in fact, not joking. 
“Y/N don’t give me that tone, you haven’t had a decent meal in over six months!” He held up six fingers to further accentuate his statement. “Everytime I come over to your place you’re always munching on those smiley face fries, or snacks you bought at the corner store. It’s not healthy!”
You stared at Thoma’s outburst and frowned. 
“I like those smiley face fries.”
“No!”
Thoma grabbed your hand with the paper and balled it up in his fists. “Listen, if you let me treat you to dinner this once, I promise I’ll come over and help set up your equipment for this job.”
“Gaaaaaaasp. Really?” Wow, Thoma really is the ultimate best friend. “Deal! Also I’m ordering the most expensive thing there.”
“As long as you eat properly…” Thoma sighed. “Now let’s go get this job approved for you.”
Tumblr media
The journey to Watatsumi island was a short yet very tedious one. It required you to rent a motorboat off the pier and sail yourself to the secluded fishing village of Watatsumi island on your own. The waves did not seem to want to work in your favor as your tiny little motorboat was tossed back and forth for the past few hours and caused you to become sick upon reaching Watatsumi’s docks. Your poor, iron-stomached bravado being torn to mere shreds as you got off your dingy little boat with legs wobblier than a newborn lamb. Locals of the village looking at you in pity with how green your face looked upon arrival.
“Thank goodness! You must be the monster hun–”
“Yeah yeah just give me a second…”
You screwed your eyes shut whilst you got your equipment off the boat. Willing the seasick headache to go away as you had a job to do and the quicker you did it, the quicker you could get off this island.
“Erm, do you need some help, miss?” One of the men at the dock asked timidly. 
“Sigh. Half this stuff can explode and half this stuff can poison you. I’d rather not risk a dead man on my name after this.” You seemed so tired already after your time at sea and you didn’t even get to see what kind of monster you were dealing with. “Just let me handle this, I’m a professional.” 
“O-Of course Miss monster hunter.” 
Upon getting the last briefcase off your barely functional rowboat, you exhaled a sigh of relief and looked around at the shoddy fishing village before you. The whole place not looking too good as it looked like it went through fifty rounds of thunderstorms before you got there. 
‘I thought they were only suffering from a major food crisis…’ you pondered, taking in how the dock itself had holes in it. ‘Not good. The whole place is practically falling apart.’
“I thought the Watatsumi fishing village was a prosperous one…?” you voiced out loud, eyes widening when one of the ceiling tiles of a nearby shop fell off. Holy cannoli, this place was held up by toothpicks!  
“It used to be,” the timid man from before sighed. “But then we ran out of fish to sell on the mainland. Our main source of income now is whatever we can sell from our homes.” Your nose scrunched up at this reveal and you couldn’t help but feel guilty for lashing out at him earlier. “The situation has gotten this out of hand?” You watched as people began loading up wagons with household furniture to sell. 
“Unfortunately.” 
‘All this just because of one pesky sea monster…’ you scoffed and grabbed your stuff to head for the motel. ‘How annoying.’
“Timid boy,” you called for him to come and gestured to your bags beside you. “Take my stuff to the inn. I’ll be doing some investigating before taking any course of action.”
“B-But I’m not a bellhop!” 
You threw a small sack of coins behind you and watched from your peripheral vision as he stumbled to catch it. “You are now. That should pay you plenty.”
“Ah–! Miss monster hunter!”
“Don’t worry! I’ll be back soon!” you waved your hand dismissively and made your way deeper into town. The poor man left to handle your equipment, even though you said not to earlier. 
‘B-But she said they could explode and poison me…!’
Tumblr media
“Over here is the cove where we do most of our fishing.”
After wandering around and speaking to a few fishermen, they led you to a wide cove on the edge of Watatsumi and showed you the damages caused to their nets by the unknown anomaly. “As you can see, these nets that were casted out not too far from here were violently slashed to threads after just being underwater for a minute. I mean, what could cause such destruction?!”
“May I see the nets for myself, Mr. Fisherman?”
“Do as you please, you’re the expert after all.”
He handed you one of the tattered nets and watched as you inspected it closely, catching bits of shimmering pink scales caught in the threads of the thick rope. ‘Hm…these scales…’ you plucked one off its knot and held it up closer to the sun. ‘Pearlescent, light in color, nearly translucent, rounder…’
You chuckled and handed the scale over to the fisherman. “You’re lucky this creature isn’t too serious. It’s not a siren or sea serpent of any sort, just a young merperson.”
“A merperson? You could tell?” The fisherman seemed in awe at your professionalism. “Of course, I can even tell that the merperson we’re talking about here is a young one. Judging by the scales, they’re much firmer and smoother compared to older merfolk who have brittle and rougher scales.” 
“Wow, you’re incredible!” The fisherman boisterously laughed. “I woulda assumed it was some sort of rainbow fish judging from the glittery pink.”
You shrugged and gestured to the pile of discarded nets behind, trying not to let your ego get the better of you. “Can I check the other nets too? I need to ensure that it’s the work of either one merperson or a whole pod.”
“Pod?!”
You ignored his surprise and walked over to pick up one of the discarded nets, holding them up to examine the scales and sure enough, they were light pink and shimmery just like the one you plucked. ‘Only one merperson?’ you were amused at the idea of a single merperson doing so much damage to one town. ‘Now this is interesting.’
“S-So?” The fisherman looked anxious at your ongoing silence. “Is it bad?”
“What? Oh no, of course not!” you burst out laughing and tossed the ruined net aside. “I can determine that this is the work of only one merperson. For whatever reason, they moved into the cove and have started slashing your nets for food or whatever reason I’ll come up with later.”
The fisherman exhaled a sigh of relief and patted your shoulder in assurance. “Phew, so you can get rid of it?” he asked with a toothy grin. 
“Tch, of course I can!” You flicked his hand off your shoulder and grinned an egoistic smile. “I’ve beheaded literal sea serpents before, this’ll all just be a walk in the park.”
“Hahaha! I knew our village chief would only hire the best of the best!” the fisherman –who was already getting a tad bit annoying to you– slapped your back with a big muscly arm and nearly sent you flying. “Oh whoops! Sorry, I forget my arms can send people flying sometimes. Whoopsies!”
You groaned and waved off his apology to keep searching around the cove for clues. Unknowingly attracting the attention of two curious blue eyes peeking at you from underneath the pier. 
‘Scary pretty lady…’ its pupils following you in both admiration and fear.
Tumblr media
After getting a quick walk –not really quick, it took two hours– around the cove and analyzing your area for a bit, you decided that now would be the best time to strike as the sun was high in the air, and the sky was as clear as the water. Wow, the people of Watatsumi really knew how to take care of their waters!
“Agh, I can’t wait to get out of here,” you tossed your equipment in yet another dinghy row boat and went over to untie the ropes latched onto the pier. “Then Thoma can treat me to some more expensive food and I can eat like the queen that I am.”
You began daydreaming about all the restaurants you would drag him to once this job was over, and thought about possibly taking up that vacation week you haven’t used yet to take some quality me time and unwind. Maybe Thoma was right, you did tend to overwork yourself even though you complained often about having to do so much work. You didn’t even understand it yourself yet somehow it always happens. 
‘Ugh. I hate when Thoma is right.’ You chewed your bottom lip in frustration when the knot holding your boat in place wouldn’t come undone. ‘But I also wish he were here to help me get this STUPID KNOT UNTIED–’
SPLASH!
Your body froze when you heard a loud splash coming from the water and a wet ‘plop’ coming from the very edge of the dock. The dock you were currently stationed at was one that wasn’t frequently used by the village, so there was practically no one in sight as it was just you, your boat, and whatever just came out of the water just now. 
“Wh-What the fu–” your eyes widened when they raised to see a young mermaid woman adoring pastel pink hair to match her equally pastel pink tail. Light blue tips that matched the color of the sky and a soft expression on her face that could mimic that of a doll. 
‘IT’S THE MERMAID! THE MERPERSON THAT SLASHED THOSE NETS. THAT PINK TAIL MATCHES–’
You instinctively reached for your dagger on your thigh strap only to wince when something black and spiky launched into your left ankle. Your face drained of any color as your limbs felt weak and limp, paralyzed like something was shutting off all your nerves and forcing your body into hypersleep. 
“Wha…What the–” you quickly collapsed at the sight of a black sea urchin stuck in the skin of your ankle, piercing through the cloth with ease and seeping its toxin deep within its veins. “Did you just throw a sea urchin at me?!”
Luckily you could still breathe, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to talk. 
“Human women are so pretty…” the mermaid ignored your question before doing the scariest shit possible and slithering towards you with her arms helping her crawl. A scream trapped within your throat as you wanted to keep your pride and dignity intact as a high-ranking monster hunter. 
‘I’ve dealt with eldritch horrors, haunted manors, possessive demons and cult-like behaviors. YET A CRAWLING MERMAID FREAKS ME OUT THE MOST–’
You tried willing your arms to pluck the sea urchin off your ankle and kill the woman before she reached you, yet the toxins flowing from the urchin in your leg refused to let your muscles cooperate. Honestly, it felt like you were one of those helpless horror movie protagonists! “Ah shit. I will NOT meet my demise to a low-leveled, pastel princess, glittery pink mermai–”
And then she was on top of you, grabbing your face with her webbed hands and laying all her tail weight onto the lower half of your already limp legs. “Human women also make a lot of noise. Strange.”
You could only stare at her eyes in shock, fear, and confusion as you were half expecting her to tear off your face with her teeth at this point. Which, upon closer inspection, seemed relatively dull despite being of an omnivorous species. 
“Ah…of course we do. It’s only normal for humans to scream when in danger…” you were spouting nonsense at this point, wow; you really were scared half to death. Never in your life were you put in such a vulnerable position before, and by a mermaid no less! “Now can you please get off me? I don’t want to die from this…”
“Die? Danger?” The mermaid woman blinked slowly at your words. Almost like a tortoise as she seemed to take a while to comprehend what you were saying. “I don’t understand. I am not dangerous.”
You scoffed and looked down to the sea urchin still stuck in your ankle. “That urchin you threw to paralyze me says otherwise…”
The mermaid turned her head to stare at the creature lodged in your foot before turning back to stare at you some more. “It was a necessary sacrifice. How else am I supposed to get close to you?”
“Close to me?!”
She suddenly nuzzled into your neck, breathing in that dry scent that only humans seemed to carry. “Yes. I’ve been watching you traverse the cove all afternoon. You are one of the prettiest human women I’ve ever seen so I followed you.” She looked up at you again and reached up to pet your hair. “I wanted to touch your hair. It looked nice and soft.”
“Well, you’re doing it now…” you spoke with a shaky sigh as the mermaid fell into comfortable silence on top of you. ‘Hm, she doesn’t seem to be too dangerous, plus she’s capable of decent human speech. Best case scenario is that I can negotiate with her into a relocation. That way I don’t have to go through the effort of killing something again.’
“H-Hey…mermaid woman,” she hummed in acknowledgment but continued petting your hair. “Do you think you can remove the sea urchin in my leg? I want to talk to you.”
Her blue eyes moved down suspiciously, seemingly picking apart your words like a vulture to a carcass. “But you may hurt me. I’m not a threat, but scary lady can be.”
‘Oh so I’m the scary lady.’
“I promise I won’t hurt you,” you sighed, shutting your eyes in the process and lying flat on the ground with your neck bared, a common sign of submission in the monster world. “You can even check me for weapons and remove them if you wish.” ‘No big deal. Once she removes the urchin I’m free to move and defend myself even without a weapon.’
“Really?” the pastel mermaid looked at you with curiosity before unsheathing your dagger from its pocket and holding it up to the sky to examine. “So, I can take this?”
“...Sure.” You winced at how lightly she was handling it. Honestly, a mermaid with a dagger was even more dangerous and you regret ever showing her where you concealed it. “Hm, okay!” she smiled and threw the dagger over the pier while you screamed in agony. 
Mental agony. 
“Why did you throw it?!” you shouted, tears brimming at the sound of it plopping into the water. 
“You said I could remove it.”
“Remove it, not throw it away!”
You were honestly crying at this point. Of all the monsters that could have destroyed your sanity or make you cry, it was a mermaid of all things. 
“...Don’t cry.” The mermaid reached a webbed finger up to your lashes and wiped the brimming tears away. “Human women crying sounds awful.”
“Sniff, gee thanks…” your ego was practically nonexistent at this point as you found yourself being comforted by the same mermaid that scared the shit out of you. “That dagger was expensive, you know. It’ll be hard to get another one just like it.”
“...If it makes you feel any better,” the mermaid crawled back to remove the urchin in a quick, painless tug, all sense of relief and feeling flowing back to your veins as your body went back into overdrive. “I’m sorry…”
“Oh my gods…” you felt like you could see the stars once the toxins deployed in your veins had vanished. “I can feel again!”
“I’m sorry…” the mermaid got off you and raised her arms to cover her head. “Please don’t turn me into a fish filet!”
“What? Ew no!” you made a disgusted face at the accusation and recoiled out of cringe. “Why would I want to eat something that is anatomically half human?”
“Eh? But mermaid tails are a delicacy in the monster market,” the mermaid held onto her tail like it was the most precious thing in the world to her. “I heard that monster hunters capture mermaids to sell them to butchers. I don’t want my tail cut off!”
“...Gross.” You stuck your tongue out at the description. “Look, I promise you, I don’t even like seafood. Plus, the thought of mermaid seafood makes me want to gag.” Though you were already gagging.
“...Really?” she looked at you with pretty doe eyes and you had the strange yet tolerable urge to hug her. “I mean it. I just want to ask you a few questions, that’s all.” 
“That’s…it?” she looked skeptical and was hesitant to relax her body around you. 
“That’s it.” You confirmed, assuming a natural, relaxed stance and letting the creature know that you weren’t a threat. Well not anymore, at least. “Feel free to slither— er, crawl away if you feel uncomfortable.” Hah, that was a lie. Of course you were still going to chase her down, you were a monster hunter and this was your job.
“Oh, alright.” The mermaid leaned back on her tail and stared at you to continue. “I will answer your questions.”
“Good. Can I ask for your name first though? I’d like to put a name to your face as I’m already getting tired of referring to you as “the mermaid.””
“Kokomi.” She answered softly, fiddling with the tips of her hair as she began getting nervous all of a sudden. “Sangonomiya Kokomi.”
“Ko-ko-mi,” you tested out her name on your tongue and smiled when she flinched at your voice. “I like it. It’s cute and it suits you.”
“Ah…thank you…” Her cheeks turned a somber shade of pink as she fiddled with the webbing between her fingers. Eager to get this ‘interview’ over with as she wanted to ask you some questions in return. 
“First of all Kokomi, I’m sure you’re aware by now that I am a monster hunter, yes?” Kokomi nodded and ushered for you to continue. “Well, I was hired by this village to get to the bottom of a strange creature who has been slashing the nets of fishermen and letting the fish escape. When I investigated the destroyed nets however, I found these.” You held up a handful of pearlescent pink fish scales from your pocket and smirked, noting how Kokomi froze in place once she saw them. “They are pretty much identical to the scales on your tail, yes? So tell me Kokomi, was the creature who kept slashing the fishing nets your doing–”
“I’m sorry! It is all a misunderstanding!”
Wow, that was quick. 
“Hah! So you did do it?” you confirmed. Kokomi’s face all red from the interrogation as she was embarrassed from breaking so easily. “Yes, but I promise it wasn’t for any selfish reasons!”
“How so? Defend your argument!” You were about to go all Ace Attorney on her ass. 
“I didn’t eat them! I swear! I just cut the nets so that they can be free! They deserve to be free!”
“What?!’
“Fish are friends! Not food!”
Kokomi’s face had puffed up in pride and anger as she continued to rant about how people shouldn’t eat fish. When she saw her poor fishy friends getting scooped up by giant nets nearby, she just couldn’t help herself! You couldn’t believe it, you pretty much found a vegan mermaid activist!
“You cut them so that the fish can be free…?” you worded slowly, letting her passionate speech sink into your mind. “That’s…it?”
“Yes! I don’t want any more sea creatures suffering!” she huffed, crossing her arms and looking like an angry pomeranian more than anything else. Wow, you can’t believe you let yourself get scared half to death by a monster who didn’t even eat meat. What a stab to your pride. 
“But Kokomi, the people of this village need to eat and sell the fish they catch. It isn’t fair to them if you keep depleting their resources.” You gestured behind you to the fishing village not too far away and frowned. “That place isn’t going to last more than six months at this rate. The people will be forced to abandon it.”
“But…” Kokomi frowned and tucked her tail underneath her arms. “My friends…”
Shoot. Are her eyes watering? 
“Sorry Kokomi, but it’s unfair to those who need to eat certain things to survive. I’m sure you understand, most merpeople are omnivores.”
The tiny ‘sniff’ coming from Kokomi’s nose made your heart pang with guilt. God, why does this one peculiar monster have to be the reason you cry? It was really making you annoyed. “I know…” Kokomi mumbled, “I just hate seeing them in pain. I can’t help myself!”
And that’s your ticket to a solution. 
“What if you didn’t have to see them in pain?” You offered, a smile playing upon your lips as your plan was now set into motion. “Wouldn’t it be nice to live somewhere where you didn’t have to see the fish getting hunted?”
“I’ve thought about it but I don’t want to leave my friends to suffer without me!” Kokomi whined, “Besides, there’s a mean pod of dolphins on the exit of the cove so I can’t even leave! They’re all bullies.”
Ah. Yeah, dolphins are bitches. 
“So you’ve tried leaving the cove before?” You questioned. 
“Sometimes, but I’m always chased off by that angry pod. A mermaid on her own is no match for a feisty group of mammals like them.” She began picking at her scales and seemed to frown at the memory like a distant flashback. “I actually never lived in the cove in the first place. The dolphins chased me here and kept me here for a while if I recall.”
Hm, so this place isn’t even her home. Everything's just falling into place for you!
“How would you like to go home then?” you smiled, “I was sent here to get rid of the fishing problem and I think I know of a way to help both parties.”
“You can take me home?!” For a moment, Kokomi’s eyes lit up like glow sticks. “I…Wait– you can’t…”
Your brows raised at her sudden shift in tone. “Oh? Why not?”
She pushed her two fingers together and giggled nervously. “Aha…I may have been banned from my group after trying to get everyone off their fish diet… That’s why I left in the first place…”
Oh my God… 
You nearly threw yourself off the pier. Ashamed of the fact that THIS was the monster you almost shit yourself over. “You got yourself kicked out for being an over aggressive vegan?” you clarified. “If that’s what I am then yes, yes I was.” She sat there all too innocently as you screwed your eyes shut at such a ridiculously overly-stupid (and cute but you didn’t want to admit it) story. Half tempted to just get up and leave at this point because you were in disbelief at how absurd everything was. 
“...Okay, listen up Kokomi. I will help you get out of this cove, only if you agree to stop slashing fishermen nets everytime you see one. Deal?”
“You’ll help me leave?!” she exclaimed excitedly.
“Only if you promise not to disturb the fishermen ever again!” You quickly added. “And remember, you can’t force your beliefs onto other people. So if you join another mermaid group to live with, you cannot, absolutely CANNOT force them to give up their omnivorous diet.”
“...Okay!” Did she really agree that quickly?! “As long as the fish in this cove are safe and protected.”
“Uh…sure…” you bit your lip at yet another blatant lie you just told her. I mean, what she doesn’t know won’t hurt her. “I promise nothing bad will happen to the fish in this cove.”
“Ahhh, thank you scary pretty lady!” Kokomi grinned. 
“It’s Y/N.” You corrected, patting her pastel hair before getting up. “Well, tonight is when I plan to finish up this mission, so if you want to go pack up anything before leaving I suggest doing it now.” Kokomi paused for a second before nodding in understanding. “Okay. I’ll be ready by tonight!” she exclaimed. “This is so exciting! I finally get to leave the cove!”
“Yes yes, very exciting. Now, I’ll be here when the sun sets in a few hours, once it’s dark enough I’ll be able to sneak you around through town in order to get to my boat. Sound good?” Kokomi nodded enthusiastically. “Very good! Thank you scar– Y/N. Thank you Y/N.”
“Of course.” You responded, turning your heel before hearing a splash behind you. 
Tumblr media
“Careful timid boy, this is precious cargo. If you drop it, I may reduce your tip to only fifty.”
“Dollars?”
“Cents.”
He started handling the giant cooler you two were carrying with much, much more carefulness now. Treating the heavy cooler like it was a giant chest of gold before reaching the docks with your tethered motorboat still attached. “Easy now,” you ordered, carefully placing the cooler onto the boat before wiping off the sweat from your brow. “Phew, you and I make a good team, timid boy. You sure you don’t want to be a monster hunter?”
He shook his head so hard it almost dislocated his neck. 
“Hah! That’s alright, you’d make a better bellhop anyways, timid boy.” You got the last of your equipment (that you didn’t even need to use, mind you) onto the boat and started untying the rope holding your boat in place. 
“Are you sure the problem has been resolved?” the timid man asked you, “It’s just…you did it all in one day. You didn’t even check into the inn I put all your luggage in!”
“Puh! I’m just that much of a professional,” you assured. “I’ve been doing this business for years, I assure you that the fishing problem is solved and that your village will prosper once more. Hunter’s word.”
For once since your time on Watatsumi island, you saw the timid man smile. “Th-Thank you miss monster hunter!” he exclaimed, “Your generosity shall be paid tenfold! If you ever come to visit anytime soon, I promise to treat you to dinner!”
“Pfft, you’re too kind, timid boy,” you smiled, “However, I must be going now as I’d rather not be out to sea for too long…”
“Are you sure you can traverse the sea at this hour?” he gulped. “It’s all pitch black out there…”
“As long as I have my eyes, I’m good,” you chuckled, relying heavily on your tremendous eyesight as every trained monster hunter had the honed ability to see in pitch darkness. “Farewell Mr. Timid Boy, it was nice chatting with you.” You tossed him another sack of coin before finally untying your boat and getting on before drifting off. The man who helped relay information to you waving for as long as you could see. 
“Can I come out now?” Came Kokomi’s muffled voice as you chuckled and popped the lid open from the cooler. “Yes, my helper is gone now. It’s just the two of us at sea.”
“Ah…” she propped her whole body up from the cooler full of water and looked around at the empty space around you. Nothing but night sky and water filling the void as the only things in sight were the boat, your equipment, and you. 
“The sea is so quiet from the surface…” Kokomi murmured, seeming in awe at how smooth everything looked. 
“Trust me, it wasn’t like this in the morning.” You groaned. “I think I almost puked up my breakfast…”
Your eyes lit up at the reminder and eagerly dug into your satchel to fetch a small container of Tupperware. ‘Food! I forgot I haven’t eaten since this morning. I’m practically starving!’
Kokomi looked perplexed at the little piece of plastic only to grow more intrigued when a very tasty smell emerged once you opened it. She was curious, she had never seen such a strange contraption before and was tempted to ask you what it was before laying her eyes on a strange —yet very delectable looking— food in the shape of a smiley face.
“Scary la— Y/N, what’s that?” She asked curiously. Her nose twitching at the smell as the Tupperware had succeeded in keeping your food hot all day.
“Ah, my lunch. I was supposed to eat it while on my job to find you, but I forgot once you came so abruptly.” 
“It smells good…” Kokomi mumbles, her tummy making an awkward rumbling noise and causing her to frown. “Ah…sorry.”
‘Cute.’ You took note at how she balled up her tail to cover her bare stomach as if that would muffle the noise at all. “There’s no need to be embarrassed, it’s just your body telling you that you’re hungry. It’s only natural.”
You picked up one of the smiley face fries in your container and handed it over to the starving mermaid. “Here. It’s made up of mostly starch so it can be quite filling.”
“What is it?” Kokomi immediately shoved it into her mouth and nearly screamed at the burning sensation on her tongue.
“H-HOT—!”
You held your hands out for her to spit into and couldn’t help but laugh at her exasperated face. “You’re supposed to blow on it before eating. I thought they would have cooled down by now but I guess not…”
“Ugh…I’m just not used to hot food.” Kokomi murmurs. Which is understandable considering that the ocean can be pretty cold and you doubt that the merfolk need to cook in order to survive. “It hurts my tongue…”
“Here, let me blow on one for you.” You picked up another smiley face fry and blew on it gently to soothe the whispering steam. “Try it now.” You lifted the morsel up to her lips and watched as Kokomi hesitantly bit into it with the caution of a newborn kitten. Barely even chewing, her eyes lit up at this strange new flavor –although it’s literally just salt and potato– and began reaching over to hastily grab another one from your lap. 
“Like it?” You chuckled. 
“It’s so good!” she exclaimed, grabbing another before blowing on it like a candle. “What is it?!”
“Fries.”
“Fries!”
She shoved it in her mouth and dove for another before quickly swatting her hand away. “Slow down! You’ll choke if you eat too fast!” She pouted at your quick reflexes and resumed chewing at a much slower pace. “Whth aw thfese mfade of?” she asked through a mouthful of potato. 
“It’s made of a type of root vegetable we have on land. It’s called a potato.” You smiled, using your thumb to wipe away some of it off her face. “It’s so good!” she beams after swallowing her bite whole. “Is all human food this good?”
“Most of them, yeah.” You found yourself enjoying your time with Kokomi as the two of you exchanged face fries and chatted about what kind of foods you most enjoyed eating. Your heart swelling at the fact that you finally, finally found someone who enjoyed the same tastes that you had. In your face Thoma! Smiley face fries are delicious!  
“Oh! I almost forgot!” Kokomi shouts abruptly as she suddenly digs through her bag to fish out something long and pointy. “I have a gift for you, Y/N.”
“You don’t have to do that–” you tried assuring before nearly getting your nose speared by something long and pointy. Goddammit, this was the second time today that Kokomi almost made you scream.“Of course I do! I feel terrible about throwing your dagger off the pier so I wanted to make it up to you!”
“I adore you for your generosity, Kokomi but please don’t hold something pointy so close to my face.” You sputtered as the tip of the object was dangerously close to landing you in the infirmary. 
“Oh! Sorry.”
She carefully turned it over and handed it to you so that you could grasp it safely by the handle. Heart still racing from the encounter as you tried to compose yourself to appreciate her gift. “So? What do you think?” 
As you looked down at the long, bone-like blade in your hands, you ran your fingers through the rough and textured spine of the handle. The ‘blade’ part of the weapon having tiny little jagged roots that jutted out downwards so that if you were to stab something, the jagged edges would hook onto the flesh and make it extra painful to pull out. 
“It’s a stingray dagger! Us merfolk usually use the skeletons of animal parts as weapons since they make useful daggers and swords. Of course, I polished this dagger from an already dead stingray, I’m not a barbarian!” Kokomi explains. “I felt bad since you lost your original dagger, and although this might not be comparable to it in terms of quality, I wanted to get you a temporary replacement.” 
She bows her head respectively as a small blush seeps onto her face. “I hope you don’t mind…”
“Woahhh…” you breathed out in awe, tracing the cool patterns on the weapon. “It’s beautiful, Kokomi. Thanks! I’ve never seen or felt anything like this on any weapon I’ve held before.” 
“Ahhh, that makes me glad!” The pinkette grins. “Perhaps I'll sharpen an identical one so that we can match.”
“That’s…” Oh gods, that’s so cute. “You– You can do that, yes. I won’t object to it.”
Kokomi giggles at your reaction and the two of you enjoy your ride in comfortable silence. 
Tumblr media
“Thomaaaa!” You called out as your boat drew closer to the mainland. “Thomaaaaaaaa.”
“Y/N…who’re you calling to?” Kokomi asked worriedly.
“My best friend, Thoma! He’s going to be helping me move you to your new location. Across the mainland and somewhere where you won’t be able to witness fishermen hunting your friends.” As your boat cruises closer you could make out the faint outline of a tall man waving at you from the dock. That unmistakable ponytail of his being the key giveaway to knowing it’s your friend from afar.
“Over here!” He called out through the fog, shining a bright flashlight so you could dock correctly beside the pier. 
“A human man?!” Kokomi exclaims, eyes wide before diving back down into her cooler and tucking herself in to make herself as small as possible. “Ah, Kokomi what’s wron—“
“Y/N! Eyes ahead!” Thoma called out sternly, causing you to remember your original mission and focus on steering the boat correctly. “Sorry! I got distracted a bit…”
Pulling up to the side of where Thoma was currently standing, you killed the motor and got up to leave before feeling a cold hand catch yours.
“…Kokomi?”
“You aren’t leaving me with him, right?” She asked timidly, unsure of being left alone with a human stranger without you. “Ah, of course not. Thoma is just helping me carry you, that’s all.”
“…Okay.” Kokomi mutters, hesitantly letting you go so that you could toss the rope to Thoma and have him tie your boat to the dock. 
“I got your message,” Thoma chuckled. “You really cleared a mission in under a day? That’s a new record for you.”
“Oh please, I’ve dealt with easier missions than this.” You grinned. “It just so happens that Kokomi is easier to negotiate with than fight.”
“So that’s her name…” Thoma looked over to the balled up Kokomi and she shot him an angry face in return. Not liking the strange new human as he was not only a stranger, but a stranger that was taking up your attention!
“Hah, she looks like she’d shred me to pieces…” Thoma laughed nervously. “If looks could kill, I’d be in her stomach by now.”
“Nah she won’t do that. Kokomi doesn’t eat meat. Or, fish meat, I guess.” You assured, failing to notice the grim look overtaking Kokomi’s usually innocent features.
‘No, but I would shred him for you, Y/N.’ Kokomi seethed. ‘Feed him to my fishies and sell his bones to use as mermaid clubs—‘
“Anyway, did you get what I asked for, Thoma?” You asked, cutting the conversation short. 
“Er…not exactly…” Thoma winced, gesturing to a wheelbarrow behind him.
“THOMA—!” You nearly bashed your head against the floor out of frustration. “I told you to bring me a pickup truck so we can drive Kokomi much easier!”
“I couldn’t find my keys…” Thoma mumbled. “So I found this wheelbarrow in my shed and figured I could use that.”
You wanted to cry.
“What’s a wheelbarrow?” Kokomi asked out of the blue. Oh right, she was still left in the dark about all this.
“Er…Sorry Kokomi but since Thoma left his brains at home he forgot to bring something very important to transport you in. So now we have to carry you in this.” You pointed to the brown wheelbarrow behind Thoma and held your breath for the inevitable disdain on Kokomi’s face.
Only…there was no disdain.
“I get to ride in that?!” Kokomi squeals. 
“You’re excited?!” Both you and Thoma exclaim. 
Kokomi practically splashed around in glee. “I’ve never written in a human land vehicle before! It looks so fun! It even has wheels!” She lifted her arms up like a toddler asking to be picked up. “I want to go in!” 
You and Thoma looked at each other, before a smug smile made its way onto Thoma’s face. “Glad to know she’s not crabby about it unlike someone I know.”
He chuckled when you rolled your eyes. “Whatever Thoma the Tank Engine, as long as Kokomi is comfortable.” You walked over to Kokomi’s raised arms and put them down to carry her a different way. Her face growing confused as she thought you were picking her up from under the arms.
“Sit up, I’m carrying you in a much easier way.” You explained, waiting for Kokomi to get in an arched sitting position before sliding your arms under the midsection of her tail and the back of her body. 
“Ah—!” Kokomi did not expect you to princess style carry her out of the boat and walk over to the wheelbarrow like a knight in shining armor. Her hands reaching desperately to cling onto your neck as she fathomed the thought of you carrying her around like this all the time. ‘Wow, Y/N is actually really strong…!’
“There you go…” you grumbled softly as you gently set Kokomi on the wheelbarrow. The mermaid easily feeling comfortable inside despite her tail hanging off the side due to its massive size. “Are you comfortable?”
“Very.” Kokomi confirmed. “Push me. Please.”
It sounded more like a demand rather than a request, but you indulged in her anyway. 
“Of course, Thoma; you could just drop my equipment at my house, thanks.” 
“Wait, I thought I was coming with you?” Thoma queried. 
“You were if you had brought the pickup truck I asked for so you could drive it. However, since you didn’t, I will be personally escorting Kokomi on my own.” You gripped the handles of the wheelbarrow and began jogging to give Kokomi the ride of her life. Her voice squealing at the feeling of air on her face whilst you waved goodbye to Thoma.
“You know where my house keys are! See you in a few hours!”
“You better repay me someday, Y/N!” 
You only laughed at his obedience and indulged yourself in Kokomi’s angelic laughter and squeals. Raising her arms high up in the air as if she were riding a roller coaster. 
“Land air feels great!” She exclaims, shutting her eyes and letting the wind blow at her face. “It’s so much more fragrant and crisp!”
You weren’t entirely sure what she meant by ‘crisp’ but you were enjoying her happiness nonetheless.
As the two of you cut through some scenic paths and nature’s residence in civilization, you and Kokomi played a game which involved her pointing at something random, and you telling her what it was.
“What’s that?”
“A tree.”
“What’s that?”
“A rabbit.”
“What’s that?”
“Another tree.”
As tiring as it was to entertain the curious mermaid, you could tell she was getting tired as her eyes started drooling adorably and her speech started getting slurred. Your heart hammering at the sight as even you had to admit that the tedious creature was a bit adorable. 
“Is that another tree..?”
“Nope. That’s a bush.” You chuckled, peering through the horizon and spotting the other side of the sea in front of you. An empty beach that no one ever used so that the two of you could say your goodbyes in private.
“Here we are,” you spoke gently, pushing the wheelbarrow carefully down the hill and traversing from gravel to sand. The smell of salty seawater coming all too familiar to you once more as the previous smells from the forest were a memory no more. 
“It’s so pretty…” Kokomi gasped, her eyes stirring back awake when you set the wheelbarrow to a stop to gaze at the ocean in front of you. A sunrise now peeking up from the horizons as you had spent all night traveling on foot with Kokomi. “This is where I will live?”
“If you choose to. You can practically live anywhere you can swim to.” You chuckled. 
“That sounds a lot better than the cove already…” Kokomi sighed, looking back at you with glossy, blue eyes. “I think I’m ready to go now, Y/N.” 
You smiled. 
“Alright then.”
As you moved to pick up Kokomi once more, she gripped onto your neck again before planting a small kiss against your cheek. An action that caused you to nearly lose balance and drop her before you could even reach the water.
Luckily, your hunter instincts stopped you from doing so.
“Ah— Kokomi?!” You were blushing. Why were you blushing?! 
“Thank you for this, Y/N. Even though this is your way of getting rid of me, I’m still grateful.” 
“But I’m not getting rid of you Kokomi.” You waded into the water until you were waist deep and set Kokomi down to swim. “If anything, I really enjoyed your company. So much so to say that I even like you as a person.”
Kokomi, now submerged in cold water, had tears in her eyes that could easily be mistaken as seawater. “You like me?” She grins.
“You’re tolerable. Yeah.”
She smiles when you look away out of embarrassment and pets your hair in comfort, your face only burning up even more. “I like you too, Y/N. I hope we see each other again soon.” 
She grins one last time and you’ve committed that smile into the very corners of your memory. 
“I promise to always be nearby.”
With a cute little wave, she slides from your grasp and takes off with the strength of a feisty orca. Jetting off with a speed you could only hope to see again in your dreams.
But maybe this parting wouldn’t be too bad. As you watched Kokomi swim deeper and deeper into the sea, you felt the faint, bittersweet tang of remembrance as you recalled all the fun times you had with the little mermaid. A somber smile on your lips as you reached into your pocket and pulled out the little stingray dagger she gifted to you on the boat.
“Even though you’re out in the big blue sea by now…” you felt each sharp bristle against your finger and grinned at the thought of her making a matching set. “I think you’re still right beside me.”
And who knows.
Maybe you’ll see her again…

In her arms pt. 3
Characters: Ganyu, Hu Tao, Kokomi, Yoimiya, Keqing, Lumine, Ningguang ×gn! reader
Genre: Fluff
Walking through a busy street filled with noise, you can't help but notice a blue-haired girl barely keeping her eyes open from constant fatigue. As you get closer, you'll recognize her as Ganyu, who is once again trying to take on as many responsibilities as possible that are too difficult to perform in one day. Using all your charisma and charm, you convince her to take a short break from work. Having found a quiet meadow near the city, you decide to lie down right on the grass, enjoying the smell of flowers growing nearby. Snuggling closer to you, she puts her head on your shoulder while you gently take her hand in yours, interlacing your fingers in a strong lock. So you enjoy time alone with each other, away from all the problems and responsibilities.
This never-discouraged girl always finds a new way to play a trick on you, and you never stop falling for her innocent pranks. So this time you couldn't hold back a startled cry when Hu Tao sneaked up to you to put her hand on your shoulder and whisper an innocent "Boo" in your ear. You were about to throw off her hand to show your displeasure with such jokes, when she suddenly clung to you with her whole body, wrapping her arms around your waist, after which she apologized in a low voice for scaring you so much. After standing there for a couple of minutes, she pulls away, leaving a barely noticeable kiss on your earlobe.
Despite her attempts to listen carefully to your story about what happened during the day, Kokomi simply cannot resist the tiredness that had been growing for all day. With difficulty keeping her eyelids open, she tries to get into the essence of the sentence you just said. This girl has to spend a lot of time away from you, so at least the remaining time before going to bed she tries to devote to you. But after just a minute you look at her and notice how sweetly she is snoring on your shoulder, throwing her arm over you. You smile when you see how beautiful her sleeping expression is: so innocent that you want to take all the work on yourself, just to give her some time to rest. Throwing a blanket over the two of you, you soon fall asleep too.
Every time you meet, Yoimiya is as happy, as if you haven't seen each other for ages. And as soon as she sees you in the crowd of passers-by, she waves her hand at you and runs towards to quickly get in your cozy and warm embrace. With your arms wide open, you catch her on the run and spin with her, forgetting about all the people around. Holding tightly on to your neck, she gives in to emotions and does not hold back laughter from happiness to be with you. Only when you see a wide smile on her face, you involuntarily start laughing in response. Having lowered her to the ground, she immediately takes you by the hand, taking you to the city center, along the way telling how many interesting things happened while she was away.
This hardworking girl just can't tear herself away from work for a second, which is why you don't see each other as often as you would like. Because of it almost every day you drag Keqing out from her desk under the pretext of having lunch together. On the way out of town, she asks where you are actually taking her, because you have already passed by all the available restaurants in Li Yue. To which you just smile mysteriously. After walking a little more, you come out to an incredibly beautiful place that you found in advance for a picnic. Having spread the blanket, you take out her favorite hand-cooked shrimp balls. After lunch, you will have a long warm hug before she has to leave again.
Every day you spend together, traveling around Teyvat in search of her brother. After all, you once promised Lumine to help find him at all costs. And although there are a lot of fun adventures on your way, truly interesting and unusual people becoming your friends, you see that she does not forget for a moment about the purpose of her journey. Therefore, when the stars begin to appear on the sky and both of you are left alone, you can't help but notice what a sad expression her face takes on when she peers into the night sky. Coming closer, you throw your jacket over her fragile shoulders so that she does not freeze, and offer your hugs. After thinking for a second, she moves closer, hiding her face on your chest. You slowly sort through the strands of her hair, giving her the opportunity to cry out, so after that she can continue her search again with confidence in her own abilities.
For quite a long time of your communication, you could not dare to hug her, because in your eyes Ningguang looked like such a luxurious, but inaccessible woman. However, that's exactly what attracted you to her: refined manners, elegance and at the same time cunning in negotiating, her imperious voice that sent goosebumps all over your body. And then one evening, when two of you were having dinner at the Glaze Pavilion once again, you heard beautiful music coming from the street. Deciding that this was the right moment, you invited her to a slow dance. To your surprise, the woman agreed. She put her hands on your shoulders, and you gently took her by the waist, starting to move smoothly. After a while, she puts her head on your shoulder, thanking you for your determination and sincerity, because she has been missing spontaneous moments in her life for so long.
