Little late on this post but me after the thelxie event

in case anyone was wondering the morse code said by thelxie & the event title screen can be translated from morse code, shifted to the left by 1 letter using a caesar cipher, and then translated from french

-.. -… .-- -… -> DBWB -> cava; a greeting in french, like 'how are you'

-.. .--. -. --.- -… …. --- .--- ..-. -> DPNQBHOJF -> compagnie; i thought this meant companion (informal like a friend) but i think it means company (formal like some business company) ? not sure though

and then in that opening animation for the event

- ..-. ...- -- -> TFVM -> seul -> alone

... ..-. .-- ..-. ... -> SFWFS -> rever -> to dream i think

-. .--- ... -... -.. -- ..-. -> NJSBDMF -> miracle

the fontainian script translates to "life of thelxie"

feel free to correct me if i'm wrong but i thought people might find this interesting!

This French speaking penguin is the cutest thing I've ever seen asdfghjk;

The morse code corresponds to: K F U B J N F N B N B O

Caesar cipher by 1 you get: J E T A I M E M A M A N

Or:

Je t'aime maman (I love you mom)

Aaannnddd Freminet has quickly shot up to Chongyun level of love from me. He's a precious soul who needs protecting 😭 I want a hangout with him immediately.

Calling it now:

Zuria is the one who is actually suffering from Loneliness Syndrome, and she is coping with the loss of her son who drowned via a fantasy world in which he (which she projects upon Thelxie for) survived. The way we haven't even seen her son, the way Zuria is so quick to call Thelxie HER son, her humming and drifty demeanor, the way she is so adept at jumping into the fantasies (people can be good at improv, but I'm considering context, lol), the way Thelxie says "I love you, mom," and the opening animation showing a small boy diving into the water and coming to a stop within a pretty castle that is somewhat obscuring a large, broken shipwreck all make me suspicious. The fantasy for her "son," in this case, would be displacement that is allowing her to work through her grief of her son not being able to "conquer" the water (his cause of death), and be more at peace by thinking that he is in a happier place. Additionally, maybe there will be some parallels between her and Freminet over the both of them being the "left behind" part of a mother-son relationship- Zuria through losing her child, and Freminet through being left at the House of the Hearth by his now-deceased mother at a young age.

Or maybe I'm wrong, and it'll be completely wholesome. :D

I think all events should be like Thelxie’s Fantastic Adventures; it endears you to a character and then you get him as a gift at the end!

Nothing worse than doing an event and falling in love with a character then having to wait 500 years for a rerun

Can Fontaine please chill from emotionally destroying me for two damn seconds 🥹🥹🥹

Ahhhh!!!!! I hate it I hate it but I love it!

***SPOILER*****

If you have not completed the event quest, please don't read!

Sometimes I just hate my guts knowing what will happen next, I always been positive to things but it turns out that not all things should be positive to make life beautiful, and sometimes we have to feel sad to cherish what's really beautiful behind the tragedy in life. Ah... my heart bleeds shatters like a thousand winds 🥲😭

I am glad that Zuria finds her light and acceptance is the hardest part, she accepted it and she move on with a strong heart and love 🥹

freminet and yoimiya need to meet asap

pyro cryo, big sister little brother, similar perspectives on fantasy, dreams, and fairytales, imaginations bigger than the world that holds them

please on my knees begging they would be so good together

Freminet and Thelxie!

some more morse code!

-.- ..-. ..- -… .--- -. ..-. -. -… -. -… --- -> KFUBJNFNBNBO -> je t'aime maman -> "I LOVE YOU MOM" OMFG HOW CUTE. he says this one a couple more times

inside the ruins he's still saying ça va

- -... -- ...- ..- -> TBMVU -> salut -> also a greeting. hi thelxie!

It was a gloomy event, but Freminet is very sweet and comforting. 🩵

Spoilers for the Thelxie’s Fantastic Adventures event (you have been warned)

So. Genshins recent story event. Yeah. Yeeeeaaaah. YEEEEEAAAAAAAH. Hoyoverse. Why. Just. Just why? Why do you hurt me like this? For what unforgivable crime have I apparently committed that has encouraged you to harm me so deeply? I was having a good time. I was enjoying the game again; it was amazing I was having so much FUN and then BAM you had to slap me with personalized levels of trauma.

I knew it. I fuckin KNEW it. I knew the second they brought up a little boy “oh his ass gon die” and I WAS FUCKIN RIGHT I SWEAR TO GOD THIS GAME-

LET US HAVE NICE THINGS DAMNIT HOYOVERSE. YOU CANT JUST CALL MY DISASSOCIATVE ASS OUT WITH A FUCKIN “loneliness syndrome” AND THEN JUST BE LIKE “lmao kid was dead and mom is delulu” HOYOVERSE. I PLAY GAMES TO ESCAPE MY DEPRESSION AND YOU ARE SOOOO THOROUGHLY NOT HELPING.

Like. Brooooo. First you gon call me out on my kid self’s fuckin atrocious addiction to escapism; and then you gon just twist that knife thaaaat much deeper and kill the kid who I was lookin at thinkin ‘damn that’s just a video game little Luci’. Why. Whyyyyy.

GODDAMNIT WHY DO I NEVER LEARN MY LESSON WITH THIS GAME AND ITS SADISTIC WRITERS! I TOLD MYSELF AFTER THE WHOLE DEAL WITH RUU THAT I WASNT GOING TO LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN BUT NAAAAAH MY DUMBASS GETS ATTACHED EVERY DAMN TIME! AND RUU ALREADY DESTROYED ME BUT THEN THIS WAS LIKE INFINITELY WORSE BECAUSE ITS ONE OF MY OWN FLAVORS OF TRAUMA AAAAAAAA😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I will genuinely carry the trust issues that the Genshin writers have given me for the rest of my life. I will never get over the amount of unnecessary emotional anguish that they have inflicted upon me. But most of all I will never forgive myself for leTTING THEM DO IT TO ME COUNTLESS TIMES AAAAAA

I am NOT OKAY.

This fckin event
