𝐃𝐎𝐍’𝐓 𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐌𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐆 ! [ ☆ ft. ayato & tighnari.

SUMMARY. where you initiate a kiss, only to move away and leave your boyfriend confused, amused or even distraught ☆

FEATURING. ayato & tighnari ☆

CW. lowercase intended. pet name (mentioned in ayato’s), really fluffy like so so fluffy like—I’ll shut up now 🥲, KISSES. you being a lil shit /lh,, bc why not??? possibly ooc ayato??? idk bestie I tried 💗

AUTHOR’S NOTES. writing this was sm fun & them > I love them so much it’s driving me CRAZY. wrote this in the span of two days time to disappear again (/lh /hj) pls i love the idea of tighnari pouting he’s so cute <33 ayato has been haunting me bc I didn’t pull for him he’s everywhere might as well write for him.

☆ K. AYATO — PILLAR OF FORTITUDE !

when it comes to ayato, you’re not quite sure what to expect, or even how he’ll react. you suspect that he may just find out about your little scheme before you even get the chance to do it, considering how he excelled in reading others.

you weren’t exactly the best actor—so if you decided to act upset with him, he’d end up finding out easily. but even if he did find out, it wouldn’t defeat the purpose of initiating a kiss and backing out at the last second, you’d still get a reaction.

you opened the door to his office slowly, attempting to not make any noise. his eyes wandered to your own, his lips curved into a small smile as he beckoned for you to enter.

“how’d you know I was there? I thought I was being quiet.” you inquired, mentally debating if you should just go on with your challenge before he has a chance of discovering your plan.

ayato merely smiled at you while extending his hand, intertwining fingers when your hand landed on top of his. “you’re usually at my door around this time, i simply thought that today was no different.” you often showed up at his door every day at around the same time, gifting him with affection, or a meal — unless he’s made it clear that he needs to be alone the entire day. then you’d usually leave the items by the door along with little notes.

he’s picked up on your pattern, and he’s very grateful for it as well. he squeezes your hand, once, twice, three times. you squeeze his hand four times, it’s that times like this don’t need any words. you let go of his hand and walk towards him, wrapping your arms around his neck as you stared into his purple-colored eyes. you actually wanted to kiss him, but you knew what you had to do.

you leaned in until your breath fanned on his lips, you both inched closer to the point where your lips were only a few centimeters apart—and then you dramatically backed away, your arms still around his neck.

he looks at you with a raised eyebrow. “aren’t you forgetting something, darling?” you couldn’t help but giggle at the endearment. he gently grabs your face and pulls you towards him, your lips connecting instantly as a wave of euphoria overpowers all else.

fleeting kisses that you both shared, with you smiling and giggling into them, ayato wanted to use every second he had, because eventually, he would have to go back to his work.

☆ TIGHNARI — VIRIDESCENT VIGIL !

tighnari’s day had been filled with chaos, idiots who seem to not be able to read the word “don’t” in front of any sentence that’s located inside of the avidya forest guidebook, children who have no sense of danger that nearly got themselves injured by fungi, it was absolutely EXHAUSTING.

the number of times he’s had to raise his voice in a single day–was this a plot by the forest rangers to shut him up for a while? he knows that he’s being a bit silly, but who could blame him? the ignorant adults, the carefree children, he knew what he had signed up for the moment he decided to become a forest ranger, but days like this make him feel slightly regretful.

with a frown, he continued to take notes on an unfamiliar species of plant he came across on his stroll. if only you were there to see how miserable he was, maybe you wouldn’t have decided to do the offensive. when you finally did see him, he seemed tired. you knew that this was going to annoy him and possibly put him in a bad mood but you swore to yourself that you’d make it up to him.

tighnari seemed to have noticed you have an inner battle with yourself, his chin resting on the palm of his hand as he looked at you expectantly. Normally, whenever you felt troubled you would always go to tighnari. whether it be for advice or even just a shred of comfort, plus the fact that he was so blunt and honest with you made his words seem ten times more impactful.

he waited for you to come to him, preparing himself as he still had a lot of exhaustion built up. the last thing he wanted was to fall asleep while you were ranting. you stared at him for what seemed like an eternity until you noticed his droopy ears and the sheer tiredness in his eyes. “are you going to tell me what’s wrong or are you just going to keep staring at me?” his voice made it evident that he was tired as well, but it was also unintentionally laced with annoyance. now you were somewhat scared of his reaction to what you were about to do.

you sat down in the chair beside him, bringing your hand to his face. “you seem tired, are you sure you want to listen to me complaining?” you asked, hoping that he was tired enough to fall asleep before you had a chance to lean in. he furrowed his eyebrows at you, a frown appearing on his face. “not tired enough, apparently.” you chuckled at his response.

you felt bad for what you were about to say, but you didn’t want to keep him up for much longer. “it’s nothing, really. i’d feel better if you gave me a kiss though.” you said this half-jokingly. tighnari reacted by flicking your forehead, “do you think i have enough energy to go over to you just to give you a kiss?” you pouted at his answer, knowing that this was the cue to pull off your little stunt. you went over to him yourself, leaning in before moving away to sit on your shared bed – containing your giggles with every ounce of strength you had left.

tighnari rolled his eyes at you before crossing his arms. “haha, very funny. now come over here and do it for real.” you wanted to squeal at how adorable he looked, his eyebrows still furrowed while his lips formed a small pout, he really didn’t have any energy left. and of course, how could you deny such a request? you cupped his face before pressing a quick kiss to his lips, eyes widening when his head fell on your shoulder.

Genshin Characters and Hair

CHARACTERS: Albedo, Alhaitham, Amber, Itto, Kazuha, Zhongli + gn!reader

TAGS: headcanons, can be seen as romantic and platonic, alhaitham is probably ooc

SYNOPSIS: all things hair. playing with it, styling it. heck, what do they do with YOUR hair?

NOTES: after writing for diluc, I felt like I needed to do more stuff relating to hair. I’m willing to write more parts to this with other characters too.

ALBEDO:

if there’s one thing you’ve learned about albedo. it’s that his hair is really. really soft. and fluffy. you wonder what albedo uses to have such wonderful hair. is there a special conditioner out there? anyways sometimes albedo’s hair can get quite messy after a long day of research, and it’s then when you offer to do his hair back up for him. of course you do it out of kindness and to give albedo a break from his work, but you also do it as an excuse to touch his hair, so you can run your hands through it and admire how it feels like silk on your fingers, how when you’re done with it it sits so nicely and so perfectly even though you thought you did a bad job. it still looks great. and even if you sometimes get distracted and just play with his hair absent mindedly without htinking, albedo doesn’t mind, just sitting there quietly with a small smile on his face. wonderful.

of course, he’ll return the favour when he can, sitting you down somewhere and begins running a comb through your hair. you don’t know how he does it. he handkes tangled knots in your hair with such care and yet takes care of them with such ease and quickness you wonder if your hair was tangled up at all in the first place. he’s so gentle with it you find yourself nodding off as he works on it. you can’t help it, his hands working your hair was just to relaxing and soothing, the way he gently combs it has you falling asleep right there and then. he doesn’t mind, the finds it quite endearing, keeping your head upright so that your head doesn’t roll to the side and pull on your hair while he’s holding it. by the time you wake up, you’ve never has such untangled hair in your life. he even put it into a simple hairstyle for you. how nice.

ALHAITHAM:

you and alhaitham always have lots of moments together, and for various reasons too. sometimes youre both writing papers, or your both trying ot get away from annoying people and need a break, or you’re both reading a book and needed someplace quiet to read. although, between the two of you, you tend to be more distracted than alhaitham. why? well mostly because you’re not as disiplined as alhaitham, but you also can’t help but eye the little strand of hair that sticks out of your head. seriously, what is up with it? how does he get it like that? is it on purpose? you askes alhaitham such a question and he shrugged, saying that it just appears like that. heasitantly you reach out a fingle to wiggle it, and suddenly you’ve found a new source of joy (and distraction), twirling it around your fingers as alhaitham is working on his paper, though he eventually had to acknoledge the ticking sensation on his head as you keep playing with his mysterious hair stand. he doesn’t seem to mind, lowering his head so your arm wouldn’t get as tired.

of course, no way he wasn’t going to get some sort of “payback” for that. so the next time the two of you are reading together you are forced to stop when you feel a tug at your hair. without looking away from his book, alhaitham had taken a strand of it and has begun twirling it around his fingers, almost unconsiously. he only stopped when he had to turn his page, and then would pick up another strand and resume, rinse and repeat. somewhere along the way you stopped paying attention to it and you found yourself softly smiling whenever you did remember what he was doing with your hair. sometimes alhaitham would stop reading to admire your hair in his hands, but when he felt your head moving to look at him, his gaze would snap back to his book without a second thought. this has since become normal routine between the two of you.

AMBER:

recently the two of you have been conducting "experiments" together. you are no alchemist, nor are you a scholar. you are just a feeble little adventurer with too much time on their hands, but you and amber are still lured in by the fascination of science. your question? which hairstyles are best for gliding. listen, you and amber insist. this is a very important research topic. how is one supposed to look fashionable while gliding? and so the tests began. you do amber's hair, she flies around, and then you record how the hair looks afterwards. many questions need to be answered. does the hairstyle keep the hair out of your face? does it fall apart while gliding? does it get blown around by the wind? does it still look good when you're done? is there more than one hairstyle out there that fits all the criteria that amber has set out? or does she just have to cut her hair short?

similarly, you've also been conducting a similar experiment, but with adventuring. amber does your hair, and you do out and do your daily commissions. you have your own host of questions, probably even more than amber would. for example, does it get in your face when fighting? will it get caught in low-hanging trees when you're running away? how likely is it to catch on fire if you get too close to a hillichurl? will it get in the way of drawing your weapon? if you get stuck in bad weather, is it convenient to sleep on? how easily does it get dirty? is that even a concern? or do you also have to cut your hair short/keep it short? it's a silly thing to spend time on, you and amber must admit, but it's fun, so it must be alright!

ITTO:

somewhere along the way itto decided that if HE has the coolest hairstyle around, YOU also must have the coolest hairstyle around. he’s stubborn too, and ocmmitted to his goal of giving you the most killer hairstyle inazuma has ever seen. he’ll plop you down somewhere and he’ll start putting in cool accessories and temporary hair dye, tie up and clip your hair up using with (surprisingly) good skill. not only that, you find his touch to be gentle and caring. he works with such passion yet handles your hair with such care, not once tugging too hard on your hair or getting it so tangled he has to cut it off. it surprises you a little, to say the least, but when you think about the way he handles his own hair with just as much care, you figured he wanted to treat yours the same way. when he’s done he shows it off to the rest of the arataki gang, laughing and saying something along the lines of “check out my hard work! whaddya think? don’t they look great?”

you on the other hand, just ifnd itto’s hair absolutely lovely to play with. for its spikiness it’s quite soft and fluffy, and it was then you realized he puts a lot of effort into keeping his hair happy and healthy. he’d laugh and tell you he has to if he wants to best looking hairstyle in all of inazuma (besides yours) and will ramble about his days endeavours as you brush your fingers through his hair. sometimes he’ll give you the comb he uses so you can brush his hair with it. he has to admit, it feels nice to have his hair combed by you, and you don’t mind, either, it just gives you more opportunities to admire the amount of care he puts into his hair on a daily basis, seriously, it’s quite impressive.

KAZUHA:

you've become a big fan of wandering around with kazuha, but when the two of you sit down to take a break, eat something, or even write down that line of poetry that kazuha was finally able to come up with, you find yourself absent-mindedly playing with his ponytail. braiding it and unbraiding it, twisting it into a bun and then letting it unravel, anything as you sit and enjoy the sun on your skin. kazuha doesn't mind though. in fact, he enjoys it when you play with this hair, and has said so out loud, too.

because of all this wandering, he takes a liking to finding stuff in nature to put in your hair. a bright dendrobium, a shiny leaf, whatever it is, he'll turn it into a hairpin. if you're wandering through a town of city, he might even buy one for you. it’s only when the two of you are alone that hell give it to you, softly smiling and telling you to consider it a memory of that day’s journey in that particular place. so whenever you run you hands over the accessory, it’s like you’re taken back to the very place he got it from, and you can see him smiling at the accessory in adoration as he thinks about how he’s going to give it to you later that day, and the way he stores it with such care as to not damage it, escpecially if the accessory is one the more delicate side. it’s like a treasure to him.

ZHONGLI:

now that's someone who knows how to do hair. when you first complained to him that today it just doesn't look right no matter what you do to it, he'll offer to help you out. If you accept, he'll sit you down somewhere and put over 5000 years of hair doing to work. short hair or long hair, he'll work your hair with so much finesse but also with so much ease (hey, where did he get that hairclip from? did he have that on him this whole time?). suddenly you've got the best looking hair in all of teyvat. when you try to give him back any accessories he puts in your hair, he declines, insisting that you keep them so you can use them in the future.

of course, he wants you to be able to the styles yourself, and he'll offer to teach them to you, patiently guiding you through even the most complex of hairstyles. he lets you practice on his hair so that you have an easier time seeing what you're doing. listening to a story and drinking tea? you're right behind him, trying to do his hair while holding clips in your mouth. he won't stop there either. he'd tell you the best ways to care for your hair, the best products out there. even his favourite place to buy accessories. why he buys accessories and keeps them on his person? no one knows.

helping you cheat on an exam - various x reader

tags: short headcanons, more comedic style, implied modern au? characters; kaeya, diluc, childe, zhongli, venti, scaramouche, itto, albedo

summary: would genshin characters help you cheat? or let you cheat from them? and if yes, should you even accept their help?

a/n: i don't know what to say except that this idea happened while talking in a server. and ayato was meant to be here but full offense to this guy i don't know how to write him lol have fun <3

Kaeya, despite all the rumours about him, is actually a great student! Very polite, good grades, it’s hard to not adore this boy. And he would never, ever cheat on an exam, simply because he just knows it all.

But he would let you cheat. Or help if you have different class or can’t sit close to each other. It would come with a price of having to deal with his teasing and other foolery.

Yes, he will tell you the answers. Yes, he will help you make the cheat sheet right before the exam. Yes, he will make fun of you (lovingly) and even give you wrong answers sometimes. Deal with it.

As the gentleman, Diluc would not help you cheat. It’s bad to cheat on exams and you can get into troubles if you get noticed. It’s just not worth it.

But he would help you study before the exam however! One complain from you in the morning about the tomorrow’s exam and the moment you finish classes, Diluc is right beside you, ready to study with you. And trust me, he really would try to make sure that you understand the material and can easily pass the exam without the use of cheats.

If you fail, however… that’s on you!

Look, don’t get me wrong, because Childe will gladly help you! But are you sure you want his help out of all people here? Because, really, he’s not the best person to cheat from.

He’s an average student with average grades but those grades are often just a lucky strike. Cheating from his in class is rather risky because, yes, he might just make a very good guess and answer the question right.. or he might pick the worst answer ever and earn not only himself but also you a scolding from the teacher who probably realized that you cheated anyway.

So the best thing you can do is to combine your knowledge and simply prepare some cheat sheets before class– or even better, the day before class so those sheets has actually good answers.

Zhongli is the class president, he can’t help you cheat. Sorry. Something something about rules and being responsible, about being caught, you know…

But just like Diluc, he will also help you study. He has all the notes you need, written with perfect handwriting, not a single topic missing. And he also has a very good studying plan! Literally the best person to study with! He will also review the topics with you before the exam, so he can be sure that you will pass. Just make sure you complain earlier than an hour before the exam.

And if you don’t pass… then it’s really on you.

Venti’s a good student unless it comes to exams. He’s just somehow… so bad at taking exams that no matter how many good grades he will get from all the essays and additional work and homework– all of this is shadowed by his exam grades.

But he’s good at distracting people! So while it won’t be wise to cheat from him, he will gladly distract the teacher somehow so you can take your tiny little cheat sheet and write down everything you need. He will even help you prepare it.

As for himself, he doesn’t care about cheating that much… if he manages to cheat, great! If he doesn’t, well, happens. Look, he just wants to pass…

Yeah, no. Scaramouche is not going to help you cheat. You’re on your own. Have fun!

He’s a good student so he doesn’t himself cheat much and he’s a good person to cheat from because he usually has most of the answers right, but… no, he just wouldn’t really let you. Or he would give you the wrong answer for fun. He can help you study though if you ask nicely… Different thing is how much you will learn from this study session.

He called the teacher on you once. It wasn’t an important exam– rather, a simple test but still. A tragedy. Really.

Please don’t ask Itto for help. For your own good. He’s… a student for sure and willing to help you cheat but, just, you see…

Most of the time he’s getting caught. The teacher saw him trying to read from behind his pencil case, from a shoe, on his arm… Asking him to help you cheat is like a death wish. Or a failed exam wish!

A good thing is that you can always use the distraction he created by getting caught to cheat yourself. At least this.

Albedo is a another very good student who needs no cheats to pass with flying colors. But in comparison to other good students, a bit more willing to help you cheat.

Yes, he will tell you that you shouldn’t cheat. Yes, he will help you study and trust me, studying from his notes is really an amazing experience. And, yes, if you really need the answer to this one question or two then… maybe?

Honestly, if he knows that you studied hard and are trying your hardest, he probably won’t mind much helping you a little. He knows you can do it, after all.

𝐅𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐈𝐄𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄.

𝐀𝐂𝐓 𝐈𝐈: 𝐀𝐔𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐔𝐍𝐀 𝐈𝐔𝐕𝐀𝐓. ( fortune favours the bold )

𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐄 𝐈.𝐈𝐈 : 𝐀𝐑𝐆𝐔𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐔𝐌 𝐏𝐄𝐓𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐎 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐈𝐏𝐈𝐈

" fear not death for the hour of your doom is set and none may escape it. " - volunga saga, c.5

𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐒' 𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐘 | As a veteran AR60 player of Genshin Impact, you pride yourself as someone who knows the ins and outs of Teyvat, even studiously completing Spiral Abyss every reset, and having 100% exploration to some, if not all, of the released regions so far. Everything is fun and enjoyable, especially since Sumeru just recently debuted so you still have a lot to do!

All that ends though, when a mysterious passerby pushes you off the building of your university while playing Genshin. But instead of meeting your inevitable end, you find yourself waking up in the very world you were addicted to!

It's supposed to be a fun dream, right? Something you could laugh at when you wake up? Right?! So, why is that you were back in AR1 with nothing but a dull blade in your inventory?!

…well, at least you still have those 700+ sunsettias and mints, Timmie's fowls…and surprisingly similar game mechanics you used to merely see on the screen before. But what should you do now? Flirt with the Genshin men??? Good lords...

"Welcome to Genshin Impact, Dreamer. Here, we can show you a happier ever after you've never had before…so, ready?"

𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐘 | In which you somehow find yourself tangled in the start of a web of conspiracies and confusion as the threat of the crumple paper of fate led you to a strange path with two equally strange men.

𝐂𝐖 / 𝐓𝐖 | Cursing, possibly ooc Kaveh and Alhaitham, spoilers for Sumeru Archon Quest, let me know if I missed anything <3

𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒 | This is a lot harder to write because I established a new plot lmao. And because of Kaveh and Alhaitham it was so hard to write them sjakahs. Also, this was supposed to be posted on Friday last night but I was so tired after a whole day doing god-knows-what outside so I wasn’t able to finish the chapter :( Reblogs and comments are appreciated!

masterlist | route 1: argumentum ad hominem | (alternate route) route 1.1: magister dixit

Apparently, today was simply not your day.

Even before you get the chance to leave the blasted scene you found yourself in, you got stuck in the House of Daena together with two potential suspects of book robbery, one is known for being an academia lunatic and one for being a perfectionist architect. Not that you knew that they would do it, of all people, but at this point, you just did not want to give a damn.

Anyway, flashback almost a week prior after your arrival in Teyvat and before all this crazy fiasco happened, it's not everyday that your rationality won over your desire to earn and farm primogems, you know. It's also a near impossible feat to abandon the quest that could potentially help you advance your AR and even more so in pretending that Cyno is not outside, talking to Tighnari over something you wisely choose not to listen to–lest you might incur more suspicions from the both of them.

Which, in fact, is the last thing you wanted to do.

So, ignoring the questline and the angry red mark of the Paimon Menu, you closed the tab and let yourself fall on the soft bed once again with a dejected sigh. You repeatedly told yourself that this decision was the best course of action and you will have no regrets in this route. Still, you didn’t know how many hours had passed since then–all you somehow perceived is falling asleep, being lulled by the hushed whispers of the people outside and the quiet stillness of the Avidya Forest you grew accustomed to in the past months from behind the screen of your device.

All dreams would soon end. Your hippocampus reminded you, and you agreed. No matter how much this bittersweet reality you found yourself in looks so believable, you couldn’t be far from your own reality…right?

There has to be a way to go back.

That aside, the past four days you spent in Tighnari’s care was far from not being nerve-wrecking, if you were being honest. The fennec therianthrope seems to like hovering around you a lot, fussing like a distressed mother when you do something that he thought would strain your body and passionately lecturing you about the pros of staying in bed while you rest as if you were a poorly disciplined child.

While you admit that he was a great caregiver and it was endearing seeing a former 2D character worries about you despite literally knowing nothing about you, Tighnari’s inevitable tendencies to get lost in his lectures and fussing made your resolve to go back home hardening even more.

Though when the sixth day had passed, you were finally allowed a bit more freedom to roam around. During that time, Tighnari had introduced you to Collei, his student and a trainee forest ranger, and it takes you a lot—and really, a lot—not to bawl your eyes out when you see the green-haired girl. You remember when you used to see Collei in the Genshin manga, she was still so small back then! And now, she is all grown up, cheerful despite her life experiences…and even kind-hearted enough to offer to take you to a visit in Sumeru City along with the other forest rangers to fetch some supplies to stock before the start of the heavy rainy season.

It was also on the sixth day when you found a crumpled paper with the word ᛚᚨᛖᚡᚨᛏᛖᛁᚾᚾ written in all bolds and italics using bright green ink in the folds of your clothes. Although you were weirded out and freaked out why, how and who slipped it there, you decided you did not give a damn about it.

Well, that was until you found another crumpled piece of paper under your pillow when you decided to get dinner with Tighnari and Collei outside. This time, ᚷᛚᛖᛁᛈᚾᛁᚱ was written on it using the same bright green ink.

It doesn't even looked remotely similar to Teyvat's language, as what you've seen in passing when looking at the forest watcher's books on his study table. You have a vague idea what it means, but it was possible that it was one of their ancient languages, too. Since apparently, Alhaitham himself and any other scholars of his Darshan knows at least twenty languages, according to the lore.

But what the hell does it supposed to mean? It gives you the same level of anxiety when you are taking an exam in Foreign Languages. You started to question every motive, every reason why someone would send you, someone not even from this world, a crumpled paper with Earth's Runic inscriptions. Why would they send this to you? Who sent this to you? Do they even know you? A prank, maybe? What do they get from this? What do they want from you?

In any case, you don't want someone out there continuously bullying you, and you don’t have any lawyer here to sue them (unless you count on Yanfei, but that’s beside the point). So, as a last resort, you asked Tighnari if you could join the forest rangers going to Sumeru City because you planned to find your answers, and the possible prankster, in the House of Daena. Plus, you were really itching for a change in scenery!

So, yes, you won't get defeated by the Crumpled Papers of Fate before you could find a way back home!

"—oh, Collei…did I tell you how much I appreciate your existence? How could I cry in reverie for your benevolent acts? Just say the word, and I would do anything for you, you lovely human being."

Collei, probably used to your strange flare for dramatics, giggled in response and tugged your looped arms together. "I just think you need a change of scenery while recovering, and I know Master Tighnari's lectures could be too much sometimes, even if they come in good faith. Especially when you were recu…recu…um, what does he say again?"

"Recuperating?" You wrinkled your nose and Collei modded cheerfully. You can't really blame her for tripping over words, since most of the Genshin characters, especially those with super rich and scholarly background, used to speak formally and use deep words. The first time a curse slip passed your lips about two days ago, you remember seeing Tighnari's scandalous stare as if you offended his whole vocabulary.

It was also a fun way of teasing him. A small payback for all his lectures about flowers and taking care of yourself.

In any case, he begrudgingly allowed you to come see the Sumeru City along with the other forest rangers. It wasn't a long, arduous trek as you expected it to be, despite not using any Teleport Waypoints, maybe because the journey was an eye-opening one (especially when you saw chests and puzzles that you swore you already gotten before) and your group had tried your best from steering clear of any hilichurl or Eremite camps scattered around the forest.

After dropping you off at the Akademiya grounds, Collei and the other forest rangers told you that they will fetch you later after they're done restocking their supplies, you excitedly went inside, hoping to find some sort of lead or help in solving your crumpled paper predicament.

Although Katayoun, the librarian, had adamantly asked for your credentials and permits before she let you borrow any books. Apparently, only students are allowed to have access here, but thankfully, Tighnari gave you a letter that he said would be enough for the librarian to let you inside, should you give it to her.

“—what kind of book do you need, anyhow?” Katayoun finally relented.

“Uh, anything about Teyvat’s ancient language. The one with the alphabet similar to this one, if possible.”

The librarian peered into the two crumpled papers you presented to her, before shaking her head. “Most books about ancient language are strictly available only to students of Haravatat Darshan, and since your permit is from an alumni from Amurta, I apologise if I cannot comply with your request.”

As she said with no room to complain, you had no choice but to pick other possible books to read that were available for you, stomping and frowning in defeat. But just as you sat on a chair in the farthest corner of the grandest library you ever saw in your life (it was even bigger than the one in-game!!), someone walked towards the seat across yours, waving his hand to you to get your attention.

"Hello! Do you mind if I sit here?"

You felt as if you had a sudden epiphany, hearing a familiar voice that made your head snapped to him in surprise. You even almost knocked the pile of books you borrowed earlier when your eyes met a pair of sharp, mystic red irises and a tuft of fluffy-looking dirty blond hair.

You resisted the urge to scream in both panic and excitement as you stiffly shook your head at him. IT'S KAVEH…?!

He coughed to gain your attention. "Ahem, I know it's very unbecoming for a gentleman such as myself but I couldn't help but to…overhear your conversation with our resident lovely librarian earlier. You were looking for books about ancient languages, correct?"

You blinked out of your reverie, slowly nodding at him. "Um, yes. I just need to find some references about…something. Unfortunately, I'm not a scholar from Haravatat to borrow the books I need."

His face lightened up, as if he, too, was hit by epiphany just like you. "Say, Mx…?"

"[Name]..."

"Mx. [Name], did you, perchance, recognise this?" Kaveh fished out something from his pocket and slid it across the table to you. Your eyes widened like saucers when you saw the familiar inscriptions of Runes written into three separate pieces of paper.

"The Crumpled Papers of Fate!" You hissed. "You have it, too?!"

"Yes!" He exclaimed in the same amount of enthusiasm as yours.

"But who the hell sent this?!"

Kaveh shrugged his shoulders elegantly before resting his elbows on the table and leaning close to you. He playfully beckoned you to inch closer as if he's conspiring something with you. "That's what I want to know as well. All I realised is that the Crumpled Paper of Fate is some sort of code that gives us symbolism over something."

Your brows raised in curiosity. "Symbolism?"

"It looks like you got two pieces. Though somehow, I got three." He tapped his gloveless finger on the table, the corner of his mouth turning downwards. "One in my pocket, the other was clipped together with my roommate's book in our living room, and the last was stuck in the door of my room. I even accidentally smack my head—"

"—which proves my point that your eyes are made of marbles if you didn't notice the door in your face."

Both you and Kaveh almost jumped from your seats when a deep voice spoke from behind you. Your jaw dropped when you caught sight of the Akademiya's Grand Scribe pulling the chair on your right side before getting himself comfortable on it, placing the books he held on his hands on the table with a soft thud.

WHAT IS ALHAITHAM DOING HERE THIS TIME?!

You were near hyperventilating near two handsome—and former 2D—dudes that was now glaring at each other. Well, more like Kaveh killing Alhaitham with his glares because the Scribe just leisurely opened his book and crossed his legs, seemingly adamant in ignoring his roommate.

And just like every playable character you met so far, and even the NPCs themselves, these two looked so human and real to someone from a game. The finer details from their designs and splash arts were more highlighted and even the contours in their faces are too detailed to be true.

Your eyes briefly glanced at the scribe's arm, and you inwardly whistled in amusement. Wow, those muscular arms could crush my skull. Lololol.

"Oi, Alhaitham! What in Teyvat are you doing here?" Kaveh asked in irritation, his former cool-ish aura vanishing in the instant.

He ignored Kaveh, his light turquoise eyes, highlighted with orange pupils, looked at you for a second and your breath hitched at its intensity. "...I overheard you two talking about the ancient scriptures and codes from the crumpled papers."

Your brows furrowed. "Huh…do you guys have something for eavesdropping or something?"

He ignored you, too, and fished out three very familiar pieces of paper and slid it together with yours and Kaveh's. "....I suppose this is the reason why you want to borrow books of ancient languages, no? I will give you a hint. All of our papers are written in Runic inscriptions."

"Yeah, yeah, you the great scribe of the Akademiya from the Haravatat Darshan surely knows what it means." Kaveh said, sarcasm lacing his tone like a venom.

You grew more curious. "Where did you find yours?"

"Does it matter?"

You tried again. "And what does the Runic mean?"

"Kaveh's Crumpled Paper of Fate means Ship, Blind, Light—which is rather suspicious, especially given that Kaveh found one of his papers in my book." Alhaitham said in a matter-of-fact tone, tapping his said book, that made Kaveh rolled his eyes in exasperation.

"As a matter of fact, the only suspicious thing about that book," the architect scoffed. "...is that it's being held by a drama queen."

The last thing I remember, Kaveh's Vision is Dendro, not Pyro. Lol.

Alhaitham gave an unimpressed, humourless stare at his roommate's spiteful words and you tried suppressing your laughter, remembering Alhaitham's Oscar-like performance in the Archon Quest.

"Anyhow, back to the topic before someone rudely interrupted me. Mine was translated to Eye, Knowledge and Ravens."

"But what does mine—"

You suddenly halted when a loud thump echoed across the library, and then there's screaming. Before you knew it, several Matra of the Akademiya flooded across the room, startling everyone who was inside.

"A book robbery took place in the library's restricted section. Everyone that stayed in the House of Daena between six in the morning until now, we are expecting your cooperation."

So, that's what happened to your supposedly peaceful morning. You were suddenly caught in the apparent book robbery in the restricted section, and you heard the General Mahamatra was going to interrogate every single person that the Matra caught.

This is not freaking good.

The prospect of meeting Cyno should be wonderful, right? BUT NO. You were on the receiving end of his job right now. And it's not even close to thrilling at all knowing the side of Cyno working that you honestly, do not wish to know.

Well, at least Kaveh and Alhaitham were with you right now. Though with the way they were bickering nonstop, you suddenly wished you could tell them to shut up.

"Theory number ten," Alhaitham muttered to himself; he was sitting so comfortably beside you as if they weren't on your way to the interrogation room.

"You seriously reached theory ten with your nonsense?" Kaveh bited.

The scribe fished out a notebook from who-knows-where, looking for something. You tried to peek a little, but his muscular arms were in the way and it's embarrassing to inch closer when they didn't even bother introducing themselves to you. "It's possible that whoever sent this has the connection with the three of us—or at least, knows us to some extent. Perhaps wanting to measure our intelligence? For what?"

"Isn't that already obvious?" His roommate impatiently said. "[Name] got their Crumpled Paper of Fate in their own home, we got ours in your dorm, which by the way, only the two of us have access to. Whoever did this surely knew us pretty well."

"This is the reason why you didn't pass in anything other than your courses in Kshahrewar." Alhaitham said. "You always assume things."

"Excuse me, I'm not assuming. I am concluding!" He defended, apparently offended.

"Then don't jump into conclusions even if that's the only workout you do."

"Why you—"

As much as their banter was so amusing to watch, there are more pressing matters you had to know. "But that's impossible. I don't know anyone in this place aside from the Forest Rangers in the Avidya Forest, you know. It's nearly impossible that Tighnari and Collei would do this just to prank us. Though, I always had someone with me, so it's not possible that someone I don't know snuck into my room either…"

"You seem like you always have a witness with you?" Kaveh turned to you.

Alhaitham paused for a second. He blinked slowly, before a subtle smirk slowly pulled from the corner of his lips. "That's it."

"Huh?"

He stood up from his seat. "A witness." He vaguely replied before he went through the door faster than you could blink.

You and Kaveh stared at the door.

Then you two realised what Alhaitham just did.

"Oi, he just ran off without us!" Kaveh exclaimed in anger before tugging your hand to follow his roommate outside. "[Name], let's go before the Matra catches us!"

What in the world did you got yourself into?

Route 1.2.1: Stop Kaveh from escaping. You had a feeling that escaping isn't a good thing, especially since Cyno would probably hunt you down later. What's there to fear when you're innocent, no?

𝐍𝐎 𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓, 𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐀𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔. zhongli

(requested by anonymous.)

content; zhongli x gn!reader. historical au to modern au (ig we could say that liyue has been modernised and like teyvat has been shifted into powerless realm without elements (please, bear with me and my stupid imagination ANSBHIQWKNDK)), reincarnation au, soulmates au, not really angst or fluff but like zhongli misses the reader and it shows, mentions of character death. wc; 1.6k (not proofread, let’s gaurr)

a part of my 800 followers event + *gasps* finally i am back to actual writing?!?!?! and get to continue this event??? HAHA ik this is so not my tradition of being inactive most of the part this year eek (btw, i have finals for like the next two weeks, so expect this blog only filled with queued stuff, etc.)

it was raining.

the day zhongli found you back on liyue past, dark days, where he was still the geo archon - all powerful, and craving the power from his people in the archon war, still under the name of morax - zhongli could not understand how you, a mere human without a vision, caught his attention in more ways than one.

sure, he believed that he knew you through guizhong, one of his old acquaintances, but he still could not comprehend how he could seek joy and calmness whenever you were around him, despite him still did not wander around with the body of his human form, zhongli. and how content you were when you knew that he was morax, not a passerby that casually tried to hit up on you.

it was raining, when he saw you working hard, a trait he found himself adored when it came from you, you were his everything back then, until he remembered how dread it was; one day, when the archon war finally came to its end, and news of you died tragically during the battle between gods, along with his close friends.

he could not imagine how helpless you must have been, without the power he often accompanied you whenever you said you were going out to catch up with the outside world. zhongli blamed everything on himself, how he was not able to protect the one people he cherished the most, you.

it was raining, once again, when he found you running towards katheryne, complained something about nearby monster attacks so that the adventurers’ guild could take the problem into their hand.

zhongli remembered how you thanked the receptionist, eyes gleaming with hope. the one emotion that he remembered back hundreds of years ago that was reserved for him. the one emotion he would trade his life for, because the hopefulness in your eyes was the one thing that kept him alive, the one thing that made him determined to be a better god, and he thought he was being deceived when he turned twice to properly look at your figure.

(yes, zhongli was no longer a god that oversaw liyue, but at times like this, he remembered how he was not really a gentle god to begin with, and the presence of you in the old days gave him hope for him to be kinder and wiser, and, he would not hesitate for a brief second if someone asked him how to be a respectable god (because zhongli, more often than not, was asked this question a little bit too much by the other gods and archons alike). he would, surely, answered those questions that you, the little human that he swore had sunshine upon you, was the one that brought the best out of him.)

zhongli could not believe when childe introduced you to him. (it was funny how he met you through his close friend, again.) you were helping xiangling at the wanmin restaurant, and as a regular there, he could not believe that it was really you. the same smile, the same height, the same face, even the same walk, and your kindness in serving other customers, even him, were all still the same. the y/n that he knew, the y/n that he wanted to protect, the y/n that he loved. it was still you, and zhongli knew that deep in your heart, you also sensed a familiarity when you approached him. it was weird, but you managed to introduce you to him, the new part-time worker at the restaurant and that this was your side income.

zhongli was wise, and smart. he, at that time, decided to not being too attached to you, although he assumed that he was actually immune to the death occurrences around him, since he learned that it was inevitable. all mortals he befriended with, all would only go and leave him alone, like how he always be.

but he could not deny the ache in his heart when he longed for your presence and attention, especially when you said you would be going back to your hometown, far away from liyue, and for once, zhongli reminisced the second, most bittersweet goodbye from you, and worst yet, he never knew when you died for a second time. all he knew was you admired him from afar from hu tao, and zhongli regretted his choice back then of not welcoming you into his heart once again.

it was a raining night, where cars and buses bustling around the busy city. the horns from afar, the colourful lights, the coffee in his hand, the droplets of rain that stained the café large window. all things, somehow, made him focused more on the memories of you, and the thousands of emotions that came along with them.

“may i sit here for a while?”

zhongli gave the person a brief nod, not really paying attention due to the fact that he was so deep in his thoughts, before he could feel the sense of familiarity to the person beside him.

zhongli never acted recklessly, often forming his own thoughts of consequences before doing anything, but he could not hide his shock when the person in front of him met his eyes, and, for a fleeting moment, zhongli knew it was you. he just knew.

if soulmates were real, he was so sure now that you were his.

you halted for a moment, part of you was awestruck by the manly aura that radiated off of him, but you could not ignore the tinge of sadness that suddenly overwhelmed you.

“have we.. have we met?” the simple question coming from you was more than enough to make his heart shattered into pieces, not because of the disappointment of you not recognising him - of course you couldn’t remember. you had been going through many stages of life cycles, and he would forever stuck with one - it was the fact that you thought you knew him, almost made the urge to pull you into his arms ten times stronger than ever.

the way zhongli kept on being silent made you quickly realised how off the question was, especially if you had just met a stranger in a downtown café. “wait, i’m sorry for sounding stupid. it’s just - i thought we know each other before but i may be wrong,” you sent an awkward laugh. “and i’m sorry if i am interrupting your personal space, that the rain is pouring and i could not catch the last bus and my umbrella is kinda broken -

“it’s fine, y/n.”

you almost dropped your phone at that. so, you had met. but you could not remember where.

the sadness inside you amplified the more you tried to shrug it off, his voice worsened your confusion to the negative feeling inside you, but, somehow, the more you held eye contact with this beautiful man in front of you, the more relieved you felt.

the sense of familiarity was not something you could ignore, with the fact that the man in front of you could technically be a bad person didn’t even come across your mind. “i know this might sound dumb, or stupid, or both but like - where did we meet?”

“somewhere, and i believe we were close at that.”

thousands of questions surged your mind, how could you forget a person that was close to you? the way you knew he wasn’t lying made your insides felt more relieved. who was this man? and why did you feel so sad? and relieved?

“the name’s zhongli,” he introduced himself to you.

the name struck you once again, but zhongli decided that this was all too much for you by reading your body language. even after centuries had passed, you were still the y/n he knew. “your umbrella broke?”

“i, uhh, yes,” you felt like you were sharing too much information on this guy who you barely knew, but the way he gave you the most gentle smile coming from a man made you knew that you could trust him. it made no sense, how you were not making any sense even in your own thoughts.

“let me offer you a ride. it is late and dangerous.”

you didn’t even doubt him and his words. something about him made you felt safe, and you thought you were the one who acted weirdly in front of him, but you figured that he didn’t mind. perhaps he had always been nice just like this.

“thank you, zhongli,” zhongli sent a small smile, one which pulled the strings of your heart. was this love at first sight, or you were actually close with him before? it was absurd, but you decided not to care with the intrusive thoughts.

either way, your gratitude made zhongli unknowingly blinked his eyes. those were the last words you said at him both times he met you. now, he swore he wouldn’t let you go again, with no responsibility of a god on your first life, and no treatment of platonic relationship with you on the second, he just knew that in this life, he would cherish every moment with you once again.

both of you decided to watch the rain after zhongli treated you with a drink, and, ironically enough, it was the most beautiful, and calming night you had ever seen.

Venti is calm as he sits quietly at the bar of Angel’s Share. Oblivious to the quiet concern of the outwardly surly owner, he is not upset or in trouble. He is musing over the realization that he still doesn’t know everything about his s/o.

One may ask ‘How can you not know something about your partner when you have been with them for years?’

But this wasn’t something like your favorite color or your birthday. Or even whether you wanted a gold or silver ring for your engagement or the exact number of times you had read your favorite book. He knows all of the answers to those questions, but this was something he didn’t know: the song that you hummed under your breath when you thought he wasn’t listening.

While he had told the traveler that he knew every song in the past, present, and future, that wasn’t entirely true. He was only aware of songs once they had been sung into existence and were carried by the wind to his ears. This was by his own volition, after all, what’s the point of encouraging creativity if you already know what they are going to make. Also, it would ruin his disguise if he was singing songs that others had written before they had created them.

So, when you, the dearest star in his galaxy, hummed that song while braiding his hair; his interest was piqued, and he tamped down the urge to question you about it. You rarely sang or even hummed around others. It wasn’t out of some distaste for music, but rather you were incredibly shy about performing.

However, to his disappointment, you noticed his peaked ears and immediately hushed despite his assurances.

This was not a single occurrence either. He would notice you humming this particular song when cooking, when hugging him after he ‘fell’ asleep, or even as you walk to Windrise for a picnic date. It drives him crazy to feel the notes on the wind and see your lovely lips form words that he can’t hear, but he knows nothing good will come from forcing you to sing.

Venti, through his experience as Barbatos, has learned that time is the only thing with more power than the gods. So, he will wait until you are ready to share with him. You are the light in his life, the person who helped him create a home, so for you, he would wait centuries.

--------------------------

The day finally comes when he is drowning in despair. He is upset and feels as wilted as week-old bouquet of windwheel asters. It isn’t often when the whirling storm of self-deprecating thoughts fill his head, as least it hasn’t since he met you.

These thoughts swirling reminding him that you deserve better. You deserve a person who doesn’t drown his memories in alcohol. You deserve someone who doesn’t anger people when he tries to make them laugh. You deserve to someone who is successful with a steady job who can make life easier for you.

You deserve someone who isn’t him and he can’t help but writhe in jealousy at the thought of you loving another romantically. Then the shame comes because how could the god of freedom want to shackle you to him?

The thought that one day you could be hurt if an enemy discovers his identity as Barbatos drives him to tears. How could Barbatos, weakest of the Seven Archons and object of mockery by the other six nations, ever protect the one he cherishes most when he has failed countless times before?

You find your lover after a couple of hours as he sits near the edge of Starsnatch Cliff. Your footsteps never fail to draw his attention as he looks up to you with sad, stormy eyes. You feel a chill when you stare into them like a stranger has stolen the soul of the person you love most.

You pull his body close towards yours, tugging him away from the cliff. As you hold him close, you can feel the sobs that wrack his body, and his cold limbs wrap themselves around your waist.

You hum a song that never fails to bring him peace from night terrors. It’s the song that you associate with him, as you sing of your love and the surprises that come from life together. He is your other half, the one who completes your soul, and when you look at your past, you can’t imagine a place you would rather be than by his side.

You look down and see your lover staring into your face like you had brought down the moon and stars for him. You both share a smile as you wipe the tears from his face and bring his face close for a soft kiss to confirm your never-ending love for each other.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, so this is not entirely a Valentine’s Day post because this is part of a series that I have been working on. It’s called “Song Scenarios” and will involve characters from various games and shows. They are written with certain songs in mind but any one can associate whatever song they want.

For Venti, the song was Solo Para Ti by Camila (spanish rock band). Please give it a listen!

FAVORITE NUMBER ?

SUMMARY where you finally say yes to your suitor in a creative way

CHARACTER kamisato ayato x gn!reader

CW very self indulgent, modern au, gender neutral reader, just pure fluff, angst if you squint, rushed fic, mentions of crying, overthinking, use of call signs, not proofread. lmk if I missed any

[ 💬 ] LOVE, AIKA ¹this is the result of my spin the wheel journey. fluff for now hehehe might post angst soon? idk depends on how busy/motivated I am. ²i got this idea after watching this tiktok wjdhfdndo

“I’m on my way,” Ayato spoke from the other side of the call.

Today marked the 2nd year Ayato had been courting you. Throughout those two years, Ayato had always been patient.

For two years he had been working hard to get that single word from you finally.

Every day for the last two years, he never failed to show you how important you are to him.

Ayato always said to take your time, and that he’s not rushing you to enter a relationship with him.

Despite this, you couldn’t help but worry. What if he got tired of waiting for you? What if he finds someone else to love? So many what-ifs ran through your head.

Ayato knew, he always knew about those thoughts you have, he did his best to quell your worries. It always worked.

Today, you wanted to finally answer the long-asked question. You wanted to tell him “Yes”.

But what's the fun in just telling him? So you concocted a plan together with his sister, Ayaka, who had always been supportive of you both.

Your train of thoughts came to a halt when you heard a knock on your door.

Grabbing your things, and making a beeline to the door, there greeted you the sight of your boyfriend-to-be, holding a bouquet of crochet flowers.

You swear you felt your heart beat faster at the sight.

He wrapped you up in his embrace before handing the bouquet which contained an assortment of flowers.

Returning the hug albeit a bit tighter, and giving his cheek a kiss as a thank you.

He chuckled, his ears turning a pink hue.

"Hi, love" Ayato greeted you,

"Hello" It was your turn to get flustered, he was truly a very unpredictable man, as mischievous as he is, you can't deny the fact that is one of his many quirks that you fell in love with.

Noticing you reddening cheeks, he let out another chuckle. 'Adorable', he thought.

Being the gentleman he is, he walked you to his car with a hand on the small of your back. Opening the door and helping you buckle your seat.

The drive to the location was a quiet one, you loved the fact that no matter how many words were spoken be it none or thousands, you never felt empty, his presence alone was enough to fill your heart.

"We're here," Ayato announced after parking the car.

The view was one you could never forget, it was breathtaking.

The setting sun made it more ethereal, it was like a scene from a book, it looked so unreal.

But to Ayato? You were the most breathtaking view, seeing you gaze at the unending sky with your sparkling eyes.

He fell in love with you all over again.

He uttered your name, beckoning you to come sit with him. He fed you the snacks he brought, and even cuddled you close to him.

After awhile of just sitting together and talking about what not, you gaze into his lavender eyes, you find yourself lost in them.

'Now's the chance' you thought. It was finally time to give him your long awaited gift.

"Ayato?"

He hummed in response, knowing he's listening you decided to continue on.

"What's your favorite number from 1 to 30?"

Though surprised by the sudden question, he nonetheless answered, "19, why?"

Still a bit anxious, you decided to stall more, so, you asked again

"Aside from 19?"

"26, my birthdate"

He answered despite the initial confusion.

"Do you want to know mine?"

"Of course, I want to know everything there is about you"

'Smooth.' you though to yourself.

"My favorite number is 6, ask me why,"

Without any hesitation, he asked "Why?"

"That would be our monthsary!" you replied, anxiously waiting for his reaction.

Pure confusion was written all over his face that you couldn't help but let out a small giggle.

It still hasn't registered in his head, 'monthsary..?' what could it ever mean?

Then it all clicked, you were finally saying yes to his courting!

His face glowed red, salty droplets of tears rolled down his face, he couldn't help it can he?

"Love, are you serious right now?"

"Of course I am. Today is April 6 right?"

"May 6 would be our first monthsary then."

"That's right, what am I to you now?"

"My lover"

"Let's make it official, Love"

That was the first time you ever called him Love outside of texts, he felt butterflies fluttering all over is stomach at that very moment.

"I love you so much," He said, the first to many more.

"I love you too" you told him, leaning your forehead against his, staring at each other with so much love and adoration.

if one of us dies, i hope i die first - genshin fic

ft. yae miko, raiden ei, lisa, zhongli, venti (x gn!reader)

warnings: angst, doesn't follow canon timeline, grammatical errors

cw: alcoholism

summary: you are a traveller from another world, traversing across teyvat in search of a place to call home since you were exiled from your homeland. just as you settle down with them, fate decides that your journey will end here.

YAE MIKO! she doesn't cry - she has learnt that crying gets her nowhere. she's the same as ever on the outside, teasing and joking, and to anyone who does not know her well, it is as if nothing ever happened. deep down, however, she feels more lonely than ever. it is the same feeling she had when her friend left her for centuries, yet this time she knows that even after centuries, after millennia, while she may still be alive, she will never see you again. it pains her to say it, but she truly cared for you. she knows of your exile from your homeland, and even if she couldn't identify it, she had fallen in love with you. she wanted a place for you to stay, a place where you could call home, with someone whom you could always rely on. perhaps yae miko may not be someone everyone adores, but she certainly adores you, and vice versa. while she has lost many over the hundreds of years she's lived, you will never be just another person she's lost. to her, you will always be a brave traveller whom she was in love with.

RAIDEN EI! one thing ei was afraid of was falling in love, because it never lasted. it was a contradiction of eternity. yet she still fell in love with you. she knew it was a bad idea, because you were reckless, carefree, everything she was not. it was only until one night when you were drunk, while she was eating her favourite dango, that you revealed your situation to her. searching for a place to call home was all you ever wanted, and in ei's eyes, while you were still the same reckless traveller she knew, you were also looking for your idea of eternity. your relationship with her began to blossom, and soon, the two of you had decided to settle down. when news of your death got to ei, it was as if the rest of the world did not matter. it was the same feeling she got when she lost her sister and everyone she ever knew. reality hit hard then - eternity was your enemy, because you were a flame so bright it chipped away at your life. eternity and you could never be together, and ei's only just learnt this. despite this, however, she doesn't resent you. she still loves you, still visits your grave ever so often, and still remembers your desire for your own eternity. for as long as she will live, ei will remember you, just as she remembers her sister.

LISA! lisa has known ever since she was cursed by the magic book that she would die young. she doesn't expect to outlive jean, kaeya, anyone in the knights of favonius, really, and she definitely does not expect to outlive you, a traveller exiled from their homeland. so it is quite a shock to her when she finds out from a solemn jean that you have died while trying to save a citizen of mondstadt. how is this possible, lisa wonders, because she knows you are a capable fighter. according to the official reports, you had already sustained previous wounds while exploring the old temples scattered around mondstadt, where several ruin guards reside. she is shaken, of course - how could one's life be so easily taken just like this? death was inevitable, that was one thing lisa knew very well. but for death to strike just as the two of you were figuring things out, trying to put a label to this strange relationship you two had, well... fate is cruel. perhaps, the two of you will be reunited soon enough. and maybe then, the both of you could lead the life you never got the chance to live.

ZHONGLI! it's yet another loss to zhongli, the oldest archon, the god of contracts. he's supposed to be experienced in this field, so why does he feel so down during your funeral procession? he watches from the side as hu tao, the director of the wangsheng funeral parlour, directs the procession. you in that coffin, eyes shut as if you were merely sleeping. he feels a certain emotion he hasn't felt in a long time, something akin to grief, but not quite. it's the kind of grief that eats him from the inside, knowing full well that he could have been there to protect you from the fatui. he would've switched places with you in a heartbeat if it meant that you could live, because he's just a retired god living amongst mortals. you, on the other hand, had just begun life. to a god, someone who has lived for thousands of years, a few decades was like a blink of an eye. and he only wished that he had been there so you could stay by his side, by liyue, for as long as you could. as he watches the burial take place, zhongli closes his eyes briefly. memories of the two of you flash across his mind, moments where you were happy, sad, angry. he cannot reverse time now, but the least he can do is preserve the memories the both of you shared together. the love he has for you will never die, even if he does. perhaps if fate allows, he can find you sooner than expected.

VENTI! resident alcoholic of mondstadt, venti. of course he's not fully sober when you lie in his arms, feeling the disease take over you. you don't know what it is, but barbara has been trying her best to relieve the pain for you. jean has searched far and wide to find a cure for your disease, but it seems it is something you contracted in your homeland before you were exiled. venti's braids tickle your face as he stares at you with hazy eyes. "venti?" you call, your eyelids feeling heavier than usual. he replies with a hum. "i love you." he can't reply, he's far too gone to do so. but he starts humming a tune you know - he's not wrong when he says he knows tunes from all over, past or future. it is a lullaby your parents used to sing to you before you went to bed - you now associate it with comfort, with home. he hums the full tune, even if he can't speak. and you smile, if a little bitter, because what a way to die this is. in your lover's arms, with a tune you know all too well. peacefully, you shut your eyes. venti doesn't realise you really are gone until much later, when you no longer respond to his singing, to his touches. whether he will use more alcohol as a method of coping, or whether he will finally realise what his alcohol addiction can do, that...well, that's really up to him. but one thing is for certain - the tune he sings for you, will always be sung when he's lonely, and on the rare occasion he's sober. because it reminds you of home and comfort, and knowing your reasons for coming to mondstadt, he wants you - or rather, your spirit - to accept his land as a home.

unforseen parting

pairing: alhaitham x reader

contents: character death, angst, no comfort, mentions of blood, there's some talk about wound but nothing too graphic

synopsis: it wasn't supposed to end this way. but none of you were able to change this outcome.

additional notes: written for @versadies farewell, love collab, prompt 10 “don’t die on me... please”; alhaitham might be a bit ooc; also i'm so sorry if this ends up being bad, i haven't written angst in a long while and i also wrote this being half-asleep; reblogs are appreciated!

genshin masterlist: [here]

breathe in.

it's no secret that the life of a scholar can be a dangerous one, with research sometimes leading into places crawling with monsters. yet you always managed to come out of it with small injures and that was only in the worst scenarios, be it by yourself or with help that seemed to always show up at the right time.

breathe out.

and yet, you had a feeling that this time you might not make it. you could feel the blood seeping through your fingers, as you tried to stop the bleeding from the wound your stomach, and the adrenaline wearing off in favor of the fatigue catching up to you.

don't panic.

a small part of you hoped that someone miraculously would show up to help you, even though you knew it wasn't possible. after all, you'd made sure of it by getting into the worst fight with your boyfriend that morning. what's started as a simple question if you could go out another day, as he wasn't able to accompany you, somehow turned out into a full blown argument with you angrily accusing him of underestimating your abilities.

it's gonna be alright.

but it wasn't, was it? turns out you were the one, who underestimated the situation, getting yourself injured at the worst possible place and time. that ruin drake was a nasty surprise, yet could you really be surprised after choosing to conduct you research near an old ruin golem?

you thought you could reach a breakthrough, if you came here, but right now that research was the last thing on your mind. you needed urgent medical attention, but the closest settlement was further than you could hope to get and you started to feel as if all the exhaustion in the world was suddenly dumped on you.

i'm scared.

then came the pain, pulsing in your stomach as the adrenaline wore of completely. it dispelled the tiredness for a short moment, but it was enough for you to hear someone calling your name.

"[name]!"

then there was a sound of rushing footsteps and suddenly someone dropped in front of you and brought your body closer to theirs, applying some more pressure to your wound.

"it's okay, i've got you." they whispered, but there was some sort of shakiness in their voice. "you're gonna be okay."

when you lifted your head to look at your saviour, your half-closed eyes were met with a sight that you never thought you'd see.

it was alhaitham who was desperately trying to stop your bleeding, yet one look at his face made it obvious that the normally composed scribe was barely holding himself together, probably trying to look calm for your sake.

"you're here..." you murmured, somehow finding the energy to speak.

"of course i am. and i'm sorry that i didn't come sooner. but... i'll make it up to you really good, so... don't die on me... please."

maybe if you were more careful. maybe if you listened to him and didn't go on this expedition. maybe the two of you wouldn't be in this situation, instead sharing some drinks at puspa cafe or just simply reading some books together, finding comfort in each other's presence.

but you didn't listen, nor were you careful enough. so when the sun set on this almost completely normal day, instead of comforting silence or happy smile, there was only a small "i'm sorry" you breathed with your last breath and the final drop of your eyelids.

and only then alhaitham allowed himself to cry, letting tears fall from his eyes as silent tears wrecked his body.

because this time you left too quickly and to a place he couldn't follow you yet. and the silence that fell after your departure was the furthest thing from comforting.

"i'm sorry... i wasn't able to protect you..."

━ of mischief and temptations

includes: wanderer/scaramouche x gn! reader!

cw: suggestive + ooc + grammar errors

note: this is my tribute for the wanderer in hopes of him coming home </33

For those fortunate enough and were someone Scaramouche finds tolerable, if they were to ask him to describe you, he would promptly reply, "Infuriating and absolutely irritating," stunning the inquirer. Although he wasn't outright lying, he wasn't entirely truthful either. He wouldn't have gotten together with you if all he felt for you was aggravation and annoyance. Despite his best attempts, he was unable to conceal his infatuation. Anyone can see that there was more to the story, especially given his obvious affection for you.

Even so, they can't help but wonder what brought you two together provided that the moment you two were in close contact, you were right at his face, teasing him mercilessly, leading him to saying something snarky about you which had no effect on you whatsoever.

And if someone were to ask you why you tease him so much, without delay, you respond with, “Because his reactions are all too fascinating,” leaving the questioner perplexed. What exactly was so fun about being on the other side of his sarcastic remarks? They suppose that they could never understand.

How could they when in private, the oh-so unfriendly and cruel Scaramouche acts so desperate for you? Certainly, not in a million years would they ever expect that all Scaramouche wants to do to you was to kiss you breathless and leave you cornered for once, and not him. And you know this fact very well, and use it to your advantage. Just because you know what he wants, doesn’t mean he can get it easily. Even his constant complaints and grumbling won’t make you move an inch.

In this particular instance, for the past week, you had woefully deprived him of the kisses and touches he desires, moving your face away or refusing his advancements whenever he tried to make a move on you. If it were any other individual that refused to submit to him, he would have him dead - but not you, you were special, you were special to him, you were someone who he opened his heart to, someone he allowed himself to be vulnerable around, and someone he occasionally let have control over what he does. But even so, he can’t help but be irked at this little game you're playing. He ought to have become accustomed to this aggressive, relentless mischievous side of yours that can be taken too far if pushed. And people said that he was cruel.

Sometimes your games don’t have any particular strong motive to them, and you just do it for fun just to rile him up, thinking about it makes him even more vexed. Were you looking to have him begging? Pleading for you to finally let him have the affection he so desperately craves? You should know by now that his pride would never let you have that.

But desperate times call for desperate measures.

Which is why, after a week of this game with you, he had finally had enough of your antics. The little smirk you had on your face after your little victory was enough to convince him that you understood precisely what you were doing to him.

Even as he had you pinned on the bed, hovering over you with his arms caging your body on the cushions, preventing your escape, the grin you had on your lips did not waver, and his grip on your hands tightened. The air had the sensation of being blasted with waves of heat. And though a sense of helplessness encompassed you, not once were you not proud of the reaction you managed to evoke from him.

His eyes narrowed on your expression, lips pursed into a scowl, “Was this what you were aiming for? For me to act like this and finally give into my temptations? “ He hissed, his face slowly approaching, his eyes latching onto yours as he got closer. He was so close, close enough for you to notice the scent of his shampoo and peppermint breath, close enough to feel his breath fanning your lips. You weren't merely being trapped by his arms anymore.

“Regardless of my answer, it won’t change what you want from me will it? “ how he wished he could take away that arrogant tone from your lips, but he knew that if he did, these moments of intimacy that you two share with each other would never be the same. The way you manage to lure him in each time, the way you manage to give him just enough to keep him craving for more, it all makes him feel crazy. He was barely doing anything to you, and yet it felt like his mind was in a haze, and the only way to escape that, was to finally have his appetite satiated.

“You got what you wanted… It’s my turn to get what I want. “ The way he kissed you was so gentle at first, but that rapidly shifted when Scaramouche finally had a touch of the treasure he waited so long for. He savored the taste of your lips, relishing the small whimpers that leave your mouth when he has given you no room to breath.

Your body trembled from the intensity of the unrelenting kiss. It felt like your senses were clogged, you could not see his face, you could not hear his hums of satisfaction, nor could you feel anything else aside from his lips. It leaves you feverish and lightheaded, as if you were wandering across a desert without any water, and he is an oasis you wish to covet.

His hands steadily left yours, one repositioning itself behind your head and the other toward your thigh, stroking the tender flesh without ever allowing your lips to separate. He will give you ten additional kisses for each kiss you denied him. He will touch you hundreds of times more for each contact you rejected. And he will revel in millions more moments of pleasure for each second you deprived him.

It was finally his turn to have his way with you however he pleased.

Diluc x GN!Reader fic: Falling slowly

Diluc reminisces about how he got to know you and how you ended up together.

Word count: 604

Content warnings: None

Notes: The reader is depicted as somewhat introverted and quiet. They're very much a self-insert of mine. So if you are, like me, an Enneagram Type 9, you'll vibe with it.

Read below or on AO3.

The first time Diluc saw you, he didn’t take particular note of you. You seemed to prefer placing yourself in the background. You were at the Angel’s Share with your friends. Sitting near the wall, your friends were chatting enthusiastically, but you seemed to be content to listen. “No need to add more noise to the din”, you might have thought. He hadn’t taken particular note of it back then—you were just another customer, like many others.

Some days later, you returned—you were with your friends again, and it seemed to go much like the way it had previously. Your third visit, and Diluc started to recognize the faces of you and your friends. You always came in the evening—until you didn’t, the fourth time. You came in the afternoon, alone. You picked out a quiet spot and took out a book, spending hours poring over the pages. There weren’t many people that day, and in moments he had nothing else to do, Diluc sometimes found himself stealing a glance or two at you. Sometimes you’d just be flipping the page, or making a note. Sometimes your face would be scrunched up, deep in thought over the apparently incomprehensible text in the book. It seemed to Diluc that, when you were on your own, you inexplicably became more expressive. When you were with friends all your face seemed to show was quiet contentment, but that afternoon he saw different emotions in you.

Every once in a while, he’d come over to your table. “Do you want anything else?” he’d ask.

You’d look up—sometimes with a kind smile, sometimes with a disoriented look on your face, when you had been particularly engulfed in the material—and say “Yes please,” or something along those lines. You had tried out various drinks that day—non-alcoholic, of course—but the apple cider turned out to be the most to your liking. You’d order it again, a few days later. You had taken a seat at the bar. Diluc took the opportunity to strike up a conversation.

He learned your name, and what you do in your daily life. He learned what you like to do, and what you’re searching for. It was idle chitchat. He normally detested it, but he didn’t mind it that day. He still wasn’t fond of it, but he found himself fascinated by the non-verbal parts of you. The way you laughed, the way you held the glass, the way you carefully chose your words, the way you seemed to listen intently to every word he said. The way your lips parted when you spoke.

He tried not to find pleasure in you the way he did—“they’re a customer, it’s not appropriate,” he reprimanded himself—but he failed miserably. You’d visit the tavern regularly—with others, or by yourself. When the opportunity presented itself, Diluc talked with you. To his delight, you seemed to welcome his attentions. He wondered whether you realized his interest in you. Your unobtrusive mannerisms and endless respect for others made him suspect that you didn’t quite realize your own value. Did you respect yourself the way you did others? Did you care for yourself the way you cared for them?

Did you even realize it was possible for someone to lay eyes upon you the way he did?

Sometimes he still wonders if you consider yourself worthy of that kind of love. But when you lie in his arms, dozing off, he doesn’t worry about that. If such a thought should arise in your head, he’ll be sure to banish it swift as lightning.

hello! wish you're having a good day <3!

can you do scaramouche x reader

scaramouche meeting reader in a field of flowers and reader was playing piano and a calm song <3

thank you! feel free to ignore this if it's bad

fandom: genshin impact characters: scaramouche (wanderer) reader type: gender neutral summary: it was when your eyes met his that spring arrived. genre: angst? to fluff warnings: none notes: i have questions. like, where did reader get a piano from? and how did they get it to the flowerfield? but this is a fanfic, we need no explanations LOL! the song reader plays can be anything you want, but i personally thought of futari saison when i wrote this! i hope you enjoy it c:

The puppet's life was stuck in eternal winter. Betrayal after betrayal made him lock his fragile soul behind walls upon walls of unrelenting, frostbiting cold steel. Looking at humanity with disdain and spitting at the gods who rule it all, the bitter everwinter he let his life become had no comparison, not even with the cold Dragonspine or the frozen land that was Snezhnaya.

The world is grey and cold, monochrome and unchanging; seasons blending into each other as time goes by without waiting, flowers bloom and flowers wither, yet he had no interest or intention of bringing himself to look back no matter how sweet, enticing, or pleasant their fragance was.

That was, until he heard that gentle, soothing melody.

He stood still in the middle of the flowerfield, staring with an almost innocent awe at the person who rhythmically pressed the piano keys, looking almost angelical. Warm. Inviting.

As if winter snow had begun to melt, and someone had started painting the monotone sceneries of the world, from where his gaze was focused on your form, the world started to seem a little bit warmer, a little bit more colorful.

It was when your eyes met his that spring arrived.

── SO THIS IS CHRISTMAS ──

pairing ;; aether x reader (pronouns not mentioned)

warnings ;; idk christmas? pack it up grinch /lh

notes ;; HEY IM ALIVE and so much shit has been happening with my life lately but yeah i wanna say im fully back now but dont get too excited!! yk what yeah im back now :)

going to your lover's house for christmas is something you did not see yourself doing ever. even the though of having one to spend christmas with made you giddy. a few years ago if someone told you that you would be spending the most wonderful time of the year with your boyfriend of two years you would look at them in shock and then quickly laugh them off.

AETHER's family was having a christmas party to celebrate the holidays. it was a family reunion of sorts, as all of his aunts, uncles, cousins were packed into the large house. why not celebrate it with a family member to-be? you're ears painted with red at both the cheeky smirk on his face and the backhanded marriage proposal.

after greeting his family - some of which he didn't even know he was related to - you two sat down in his living room with your back against his chest and his arms around your waist. you're knees were tucked into your chest as aeher shoved his face deeper into your neck. you adjust the reindeer headband on your head as you crane your head to kiss your lover on the head. feeling this, he raises his head and returns in ten fold, pressing light but frequent kisses all over your face as you giggle from the ticklish feeling

"can you two not be annoying for a day?"

aether ceases his attack as he too fixes the santa hat that got slightly knocked off prior

"its okay to be a hater, lumine"

he says breifly before childishly sticking his tongue at his twin and resuming showering you with kisses. lumine looks at him from the side of her eye then leaves the room, muttering something under her breath. both of you look at lumine leave the room and then back at each other. you two laugh and share one final kiss. (for that moment, that is)

───❄️───

some time has passed and you and aether have switched positions: you were sitting on the couch, one hand mindlessly scrolling through your phone while the other scratched aether's head and playing with his long blonde hair. aether on the other hand, was fighting sleep like his life depended on it all. he's aware that it's absolutely okay to sleep with his lover, in fact you encourage it, but he doesnt want to. but oh, dont you make it hard for him. the way how when you scratch that certain spot it sends pleasant shocks down his spine. he can only grow an even more lovestruck grin (if thats even possible, for his love for you rivals all the forces in this world) as he looks up to you.

you look down at him when you notice his stare. his droopy eyes and wide, love stricken grin brings heat to your cheeks and a smile rivaling the sun to your mouth. your hand that was scratching his head moves down his face to caress his cheeks, flicking away the hair decorating his oh so handsome face in the process. you stretch your thumb to the other side of his face to squish his face. aether groans as the corners of his mouth come closer together

you both laugh at his half-hearted attempt to push you off as you share another kiss. your moment, however, got interrupted by music playing from the alexa in his living room. you only recognized the chorus of the song but that part you knew well. you look down to aether as he seems to have an idea

"a penny for your thoughts?"

aether slightly puckers his lips to show that he's thinking. he seems to have idea when he shot up from your lap and grabbed your hand to the more open area of the living room with you following behind him, very confused. he pulls you over to where he is as he lifts his arm, prompting you to spin around. you're lips form from confusion to joy as you spin round and lean closer to your boyfriend.

"aether, do you know how to dance?"

"nope!"

he replies before taking your hand in his and wrapping the other one around your waist. your free hand on his shoulder as you hold back a small giggle. you two then glide around his living room to the beat of the music, a slow yet calming song.

you two "slow danced" for the remaining of the song before another one played, this one more up beat than the previous. you and aether smile at each other as you two jump and spin around each other, singing along to the horribly catchy christmas song. your hands were in fists, mimicking microphones as you sang to each other.

if you weren't singing you were laughing, the both of you not a care in the world. with this, you failed to notice lumine and paimon (the infamous baby paimon who was said to finish seven bottles of formula in a single sitting in her younger days) standing at the door way.

"yeesh, they're horrible"

the toddler says as they cover their ears from the out of pitch singing of christmas songs

"yes but," lumine looks back to paimon "they're in love. theres really nothing we can do about it"

"if this is what love does to you, remind paimon to never fall in love with anyone!"

paimon says as she walks away, probably looking for more food to eat. lumine takes one more look at the couple (who are now sharing a passionate kiss with the younger blonde dipping down his lover) , smiles, and turns back to follow her baby cousin

"no promises"

HELPPP

im so bad at playing games 😭😭 like,, awfully terribly bad– i only had like only one achievement in gaming and that was on Clash Royale ( i last played it 5 years ago ) i was at my best and got like 6k crowns. NOW I DOWNLOADED IT AGAIN AFTER AWHILE AND GUESS WHAT

I LOST 3K CROWNS IN JUST ONE HOUR BECAUSE I KEEP LOSING IN MATCHES- HELP IM SO STRESSED ☹️☹️☹️😭😭😭

can you like write a kaeya x reader & childe x reader comforting reader who's bad at playing games?? its upset as it seems like there's nothing im good at

[ if you write for only one character then let it be kaeya ]

i cant even play genshin 😞 i once tried playing it on my brother's pc back then,, i ran away from slimes and hilichurls when i was in mondstadt and i just can't defeat them- i could only keep up with genshin lores through tiktok vids

being bad at playing games - kaeya x gn!reader, childe x gn!reader

tags: headcanons, modern au, comfort very comfort and fluff, they are a little short but written with love <3

summary: you are bad at playing games but, worry not– your boyfriend is here to comfort and help you!

a/n: no inconvenience caused <3 got all your asks and decided to write for both and mention no pronouns of gender whatsoever, so you are free to interpret reader in any way you'd like. it would be finished earlier but i was too tired after classes to write 😭 have fun reading bye bye

Upon first seeing that you are bad at games, Kaeya would probably tease you lovingly, especially if you played against each other, but after noticing that your lose is actually upsetting for you and you are not laughing, he will drop the teasing and go to comfort you. A good laugh is good only when everyone's laughing after all and he doesn’t want to upset you even more.

For Kaeya, it doesn’t matter much if you are bad or good at games. If you are bad, then you can practice and he will gladly watch you play or even play with you, offering you words of comfort if you get upset! And if you make some progress, he will happily give you a small reward like, oh, your favorite dessert or a kiss, anything you'd like, because even if it isn't a big deal for him, he understands that it's big for you and he wants you happy and to enjoy small things in life.

Childe is probably a gamer, let's be honest. And he loves playing games with you or just watching you play but he absolutely dislikes seeing you sad because of your skills. It should bring you fun, not make you sad after you lose against him or fail to do a quest and he will going to change this, he really wants you see your smile after all.

I think, if he ever realizes that you feel like you are good at nothing, he would say that not only it's not true– and then he would proceed to subtly show you all the things you are good at– but also that it shouldn’t matter whether you are good at something or not, it doesn’t define your worth and you should never force yourself to meet people's exceptations. And remember, there's always room for improvement and he will gladly help you practice anything you want, as long as you are happy.

You name it, you get it. You want to play with him so you can practice? He will agree instantly, playing whatever game you want and always giving you tips. You want him to accompany you playing a game? He's here, if you need some advices or help with a quest or level, just ask him. And if you need a break from all those games, then he will give it to you too. Look, he will even play a new game he knows nothing about with you so you won't feel that bad with your poor skills. It's funnier being bad at something together!

And if you tell him that you feel like you're good at nothing, then Childe will try his hardest to show you all the things you are good at, because it doesn’t matter if the things you are good at are big or not. You don’t need to be good at things like school or college, you can be good at making this one dish you like, you can be a good listener, be good with pets or even at making people you love and care smile– and it will be enough. No need to be perfect or even good at something, if you are enjoying something then it is enough and, besides, you are already very good at making Childe feel loved so… he thinks it counts!

FROM YOUR ONLY LOVE !

➜ WARNINGS gn!reader, use of endearments such as love, dear, etc. not proofread. short fic only! lmk if I missed any!

➜ AIKA'S NOTES just a little draft from me, not the best but it's been rotting there for awhile now🥲

To my only love,

How have you been dear? I do hope you have been taking care of yourself. If you ever need anything, do remember just to tell someone, and they will be more than willing to help you.

It has been a while since we have seen each other, no? I do hope you miss me just as much as I miss you.

I miss how every morning you would greet me with a smile. I miss how every night I come home late, you

would be there to greet me. I miss your cooking. I miss your warm touches, hugs, and words of affirmation whenever things get hard. But most importantly, I miss your kisses that never fail to make my heart flutter, the same kisses that assure me, you are there, loving me.

I despise being sappy, but for all those things I just wrote, I truly do mean them. I hope my sincerity has reached your heart.

Writing all those things makes me want to finish my business here as soon as possible. Don't worry dear, I will be home soon.

Remember to take good care of yourself, and I love you, more than words can express.

longing for your presence,

your only love♡

it's 7 in the morning, what'd you take me for? - genshin fic

ft. diluc, klee. qiqi (all platonic, w gn!reader)

warnings: angst to fluff!! except for diluc's part bc i can, alcohol addiction, grammatical errors bc i wrote this while half asleep

cw: alcoholism

summary: they try to stop you from drinking

note: i know it's common for some people to start drinking in the morning, but in the country i live in, almost no one does that because of work, school, cultural stuff etc etc so js keep that in mind! also ik the characters i chose are mostly from mondstadt, where it's common for people to drink quite early in the morning, but i just felt like they were suitable characters for this

DILUC! he sighs, looking as you lay your head down on one of the tavern's tables, dominant hand gripping the bottle of dandelion wine as if it were your life support. diluc has half the mind to snatch the bottle away from you, but he knows how cranky you can get when you don't get your morning drink in. and he knows it's bad, and that he should do something about your alcohol addiction, but it's hard to say no to you whenever you give him that pleading look you have on your face. it's the same with venti, really. when he sees the two of you drinking together, he gets worried that the week's supply of dandelion wine will be depleted within a day. it doesn't help that you have the money, even if venti doesn't, to pay for the drinks. "it's your seventh bottle," diluc says sternly. you shake your head, mumbling something incoherent. "one m...more?" you say, your words slurring together. usually, he would relent, pouring out some of the wine into a separate bottle so that you didn't drink the entire bottle. but this time, he only takes the bottle away from you. "you can't keep doing this," he says, looking at your slumped figure. "it's not even 8 in the morning yet." you wave a hand dismissively. "it's 8 somewhere else in the world," you mutter, reaching out instinctively for more. "please," diluc says, tone weary. "i can pay double...if you want," you ramble, cheeks squished against the table. diluc lets out a long breath. "i don't care if you pay or not. i want you to start taking care of yourself." if you heard his words, you might one day find the motivation to start taking care of yourself, as diluc put it. but for now, the tavern seemed like a really nice place to stay in, with alcohol as a friend.

KLEE! "albedo said that you can't drink that," klee says obstinately. your vision is blurry as you try and focus on the little red girl in front of you. klee, her name was? right, jean's adopted child and albedo's sister. "that was last time," you say as clearly as you can, willing yourself to look sober, even if you don't feel it. klee thinks for a moment, before saying cheerily, "if you help klee find dodoco, i will give it to you." dodoco? wasn't that the extinct bird? oh wait, it's klee's...friend. you nod eagerly. "right. um, dodoco. where did you last see him?" klee considers that for a moment, before jumping up in delight. "near whispering woods! i was there playing, and then dodoco went missing..." you nod as if you understand. "alright, i'll go find dodoco for you," you agree, heading towards katheryne from the adventurer's guild. "katheryne," you start, clearing your throat. the young woman looks at you, opening her mouth to give you the standard greeting. before she can speak, however, you slide some mora to her. "can you, um, help me find dodoco? y'know, klee's little friend," you say, hiccuping. katheryne only smiles and agrees, putting up a commission for it. you receive dodoco from katheryne hours later, and she informs you that the commission was completed by a foreign traveller who happened to be passing by mondstadt. you thank katheryne, and went off to find klee. when you pass klee dodoco, she jumps up in glee, hugging dodoco. "thank you!" klee exclaims. her face falls then, however, when she says, "albedo took the bottle away though...klee promises she didn't give it to him! he found it in my secret hiding spot and..." even through your drunken state, there is no way you would ever want to hurt a child, or see one become sad because of you. still, you couldn't help but let an expletive slip out from your mouth under your breath, directed toward albedo, before you bend down to pat klee on the head. "it's okay, klee," you say, realising this is the first time in ages that you've interacted with someone that isn't trying to take a bottle of alcohol away from you. klee brightens up considerably. "since you're free now, can we go fish blasting?" she asks excitedly, eyes sparkling. and even if jean is going to find the both of you later, and put klee in solitary confinement for the nth time, you only smile and agree.

QIQI! of all things, you definitely did not expect a small child to be the person standing between you and alcohol right now. qiqi looks up at you with soulless eyes, her monotonous voice telling you for the fifth time that under baizhu's orders, you were not to have the bottle of alcohol. it shouldn't be a problem for you, because normally you could always just buy a dozen other bottles to keep you satiated for the next few days. but your pay check hadn't come in yet, and your stock was already depleted. you really, really needed that bottle desperately, and a child - a zombie child, of all people - was in the way. defeated, you ask qiqi, "what did baizhu tell you?" qiqi paused for a moment before getting her notebook. "'do not consume more alcohol until fully recovered'," she reads out. you sigh, rubbing the temples of your head. a headache is setting in - a withdrawal symptom, no doubt. you haven't been off of it for very long, just barely a day ago you had finished off another bottle, but now the symptoms are kicking in - restlessness, feelings of nausea...baizhu had repeated them to you multiple times, and one could say that by force, you had memorised the effect of the drink you so loved. well, if qiqi wouldn't give you your drink, then you would just have to find other methods, right? you turn to leave, but feel someone tugging at the hem of your shirt. "don't...go," qiqi says, a long pause between the two words. she meets your eyes briefly, before looking down. "is it baizhu's orders? i'm pretty sure i took all my meds the last time," you say, trying to make your tone as kind as possible. it's hard though, but an attempt was made. qiqi shakes her head slowly. "qiqi, lonely. and cold. you are very warm." she says it slowly, before turning around to rummage through a small drawer you were sure wasn't there the last time you came to visit baizhu. "please stay," qiqi says again, handing you a small packet of...coconut milk? coconut milk. you rack your brains, trying to recall who...oh. right. the cocogoat incident that spread around liyue was really just qiqi asking for coconut milk. you look at the girl, and she is sitting on the floor, sipping her coconut milk as happily as zombies can be. you exhale, closing your eyes for a moment. you had work to do. you had a job, a pay check to receive. and this child was just in the way of your one and only source of momentary happiness. but, she also just gave you one packet of her favourite food. and being here at bubu pharmacy all day long alone while baizhu goes out to settle some...fishy business, it must be lonely, no? and perhaps, you were lonely too. so with a small smile, you sat down beside qiqi and drank the coconut milk in silence. it tasted horrible to you, but you finished it anyway. and the two of you sit there in silence, side by side, before you start to doze off...
