Arlecchino x Valkyrie!Reader Part 2

Note: Arlecchino being a part of the fatui, so she isn't going to be exactly nice. Lyney is moraly gray. This a slowburn so it won't be automatic I'm in love with you let's kiss.

“Do not be mistaken, I spent a great portion of Mora on you. If you try to fly away, you will be struck down.” You flinched, backing away from the window. You didn't even hear her come in.

“You will live and train with my children, earn your keep. If you are of no use, I'm sure mounting those wings would make up for a failed investment. After all, the house could use some decor.”

Your eyes darted to the window and then back to her, you weren't willing to risk it. “...” You simply nodded in response.

You felt the weight of her gaze but your eyes stayed averted to the side until she left the room. The moment the door closed your knees buckled under you, causing you to brace yourself against the wall for support.

__________

Your legs hurt, you had been running laps with the younger children since the sun had come up. You couldn't understand how children could have this much stamina, you weren't this active as a child.

That didn't even give you shoes to run in, you had to be careful not to impale your foot on anything

You slowed to a walk, no one was watching and you really needed to catch your breath.

You gave your wings a few flaps to stretch them, only to wrap them around yourself as a flaming arrow whizzed past almost grazing your feathers.

“Ah ah ah~ No slacking, you've only ran 13 laps, you need the minimum of 25 for a break~” You peeked past your feathers, to see a boy with ash blonde hair and periwinkle colored eyes.

“That look in you eyes is magnificent, such unbridled rage. Sadly, I'm overseeing training this morning, I suggest you run.” The boy smiled with closed eyes, with a snap flames flickered at his fingertips. “Father did give permission to burn those pretty feathers if needed, such a shame they're beautiful like a Dove's.” The boy flexed his fingers the flames growing brighter.

“....” You studied his face slowly and to your horror he didn't seem to be bluffing. “I'll run…” “Hm? What was that?” You flinched backwards as flames flickered past your face.

“I said I'll run! Don't burn off my eyelashes!”

“Then get to running.” The flames flickered brighter, with a pivot you continued running down the path. You hated it here, you really did.

____________

Your gaze did not leave your plate, you didn't even touch your food, your hands clutching the hem of your shirt.

“Is the food not to your liking?” You almost leaped out of your chair when she spoke. Why did you have to participate in this ‘’family dinner’’? You were only here for 2 and a half days at most.

You quickly shook your head without looking up. Why did you have to be sat right next to her?! You did nothing to deserve this.

“I was informed by Lyney that you are indeed capable of human speech.”

‘You make it sound like I'm not a human. I'm the most human out of everyone here.’

“I will not force you to be at the moment, but in due time you will speak.”

You bristled, that was clearly a threat.

___________

‘I'm not sneaking out, simply getting fresh air…’ You kept repeating that sentence in your head as you lowered yourself out the window.

You slowly spread your wings, beating them softly as you let go of the windowsill, slowing the fall enough not to injure your ankles.

You looked up at the sky, it was a new moon so there wasn't much light besides the stars. So, hopefully no one would see you if there was anyone patrolling the place.

You started walking towards the path you and the younger children had run that morning. There were surprisingly no sharp rocks, broken branches, glass shards, or anything you could potentially impale your foot on on that path.

‘I'm just getting air.’ You told yourself again as you walked. You really did need air. You weren't claustrophobic, but that room felt suffocating. Maybe it was because someone actually scared you for once, at least when you were caged and on sale, your captors were only able to keep you captive by having you weak, malnourished, and chained. Here they were feeding and training your stamina, there were threats that weren't empty in the slightest, and the people here had visions. You weren't stupid enough to think you could win in a fight, and you weren't stupid enough to think you could run either.

Your thoughts were interrupted as your left leg was jerked from under your body.

.

.

.

“Who-!” You quickly covered your mouth, as you tried to calm your anger. You almost had forgotten where you were.

‘Who set up a snare?! How did no one step in it this morning?!’ You bent over reaching down… well up to free your ankle, but you didn't have great abdominal strength. You could only bend up for a few milliseconds.

‘I can't be this weak!’ You were forced to uncurl. ‘Sit-ups are a must…’ You tried again, but no luck.

‘All my blood is rushing to my head and my panties are on display for the whole of Teyvat to see… I hate my life.’

Columbina: [Humming as she skips towards Dottore’s lab to either bug him or rope him into something.]

The hall and the surrounding ones had "Beware of Child" signs littering them and a giant poster on the door of the lab.

Columbina: [Ignoring the poster, slams the door open with more force that should be possible for someone known as the damselette.(The same heavy duty door that can survive a ruin hunter and multiple lawachurls)] "Zandik. I'm bored."

Dottore: "I'm sure someone has some toys you can entertain yourself with." [He does not look up from whatever he's working on]

Columbina: "But I want you to entertain me."

Dottore: "Find entertainment elsewhere" [Is mixing mixing something in a vial.]

Columbina: "Oh... what's that? And what's with the beware of child posters everywhere?" [She placed a finger on her cheek as she tilted her head]

Dottore: "I thought I told you to get lost."

Columbina: "Did you clone another child version of yourself? Can I see?"

Dottore: "You're supposed to be blind not deaf."

Columbina: "You're no fun."

Dottore: "My work is supposed to be relaxing, leave."

Columbina: "Are you calling me an irritant?"

Dottore: "Yes, now leave."

Columbina: "You're so cruel. How could you? I though me and you were best friends. It's always been me you and Bena." [She wiped a tear from her closed eye.]

Dottore: "The Knave is useful, you're a nuisance. There's a difference."

Risa: [Tiredly comes of their room and drapes themself over Dottore’s shoulder.] "I'm hungry...."

Dottore: "You're sick, your stomach isn't that big, and I gave you food less than an hour ago."

Risa: "I threw it up."

Dottore: [Sighs before putting down the vial.] "Where?"

Risa: "Specimen.... room 102."

Dottore: "Did you at least clean it? Properly?"

Risa: "Mhmm..."

Columbina: [Watched(sensed? I don't know) silently before finally speaking.] "Ohh? What's this thing? Did you and Bena have a child and not tell me?"

Dottore: "I have no desire to be intimate with another, especially not that woman. I would lie with a Pyro whopper flower before I'm desperate enough to sleep with her."

Columbina: "boo... I was hoping to be an Auntie."

Dottore: [Stares at Columbina for a moment before making up his mind] "Since you're so bored, take the cat. She needs food, water, medicine, and rest." [He shoves Risa into Columbina.]

Columbina: "..." [She tilted her head] "You want me to take care of this thing?"

Dottore: "Yes."

Columbina: "As in keep it alive and healthy care?"

Dottore: "Even someone like you should be able to manage that."

Columbina: [Her everlasting smile twitched slightly] "Isn't this something your segments can do?"

Dottore: "My female segment sadly died in an incident a few weeks back. All the remaining segments are male, meaning no motherly touch."

Columbina: "I do not have a motherly touch."

Dottore: "Hopefully, this will awaken your maternal instincts. Maybe then the agents under you would stop begging to become experiments instead of working for you."

Columbina: "Give her to Bena or Rosalyne, I don't want this."

Dottore: "This should cure your boredom."

Columbina: "I wanted to blow up Pierro’s office or paint Capitano pink. Not.... whatever this is."

Dottore: "Motherhood awaits."

Columbina: "What?"

Dottore: "You have a sick child to care for." [Starts slowly pushing Columbina out of the room(Along with a tired and half conscious Risa)]

Columbina: "Z-zandik we can talk about this. I won't bother you for the rest of the month. I promise!"

Dottore: "Your biggest fear: actually responsibilities, oh how the mighty crumble." [Fully shoves her out of the lab.]

Columbina: "Zandik, please, this isn't funny-"

Dottore: "This should be plenty stimulating, I'll see you in two weeks to retrieve her." [He slammed the lab door in her face."

Columbina: "..." [Her everlasting smile fell for a moment.] "This can't be happening..."

Arlecchino x Valkyrie!Reader part 1

Note: I'm not really good a reader inserts, so read at your own discretion. The reader can be seen as any winged woman or a Valkyrie.

“Now for the premium Item of tonight's event!” Arlecchino watched as a cage shrouded in a curtain was wheeled on to the stage.

“What a fine specimen we have here to show you tonight! Such a majestic beauty! An Angel! The starting bid is 5 Million Mora!” The curtain was removed revealing a girl. The only notable things were that not only were her wrists and ankles chained but as well as the pair of wings that protruded from her back.

“7 Million!”

“10 Million!”

“12 Million!”

“13- no 15 Million!”

“27 Million Mora!”

“250 Million Mora.” The whole venue quieted as her voice echoed.

No one bid higher.

“Sold for 250,000,000 to #44!” The auctioneer announced.

It wasn't long before the event concluded and all the bid winners were instructed to the designated areas to pay and collect their winnings.

“You do intend to pay in full?”

“Of course, I was the one who decided the price.” She snapped her fingers and two operatives appeared holding cases of Mora which were then dumped on the ground.

“This seems to be the proper amount, does it not?”

“Fatui…” She watched as the man scrambled to collect even a portion of the currency.

“This is a transaction and you have received your payment. You will find that I tend to be a very impatient individual.”

“R-right this way.” The man quickly unlocked the cage, undoing the shackles on the girls ankles and wings.

“She looks malnourished.”

“She is stable, if properly sustained we wouldn't be able to keep her chained.” The man dragged the girl out by her still bound wrists. Her eyes were vacant but not dulled.

Arlecchino reached out tilting the girl's face up to study her. “You would be quite the damsel if you weren't so ratty.” She pulled her hand away, wiping it on a handkerchief.

“Take her to the house and bathe her, I have other matters to attend to.” She turned away.

Moments in Zapolyarny Palace #17

Risa: [Puking out everything in their stomach, which was only water and acid, while trembling uncontrollably.] "F-fuck... I'm done. I'm not doing this anymore."

Pierro: "Stop whining, it's just some push ups."

Risa: "My arm got dislocated."

Pierro: "Why didn't you say anything."

Risa: "I did"

Sandrone: "You said you didn't care unless she had a note from Dottore."

Childe: "Dottore is somewhere in Sumeru and his Segments are no where to be found."

Risa: "i- think I might a pinched a nerve when I popped in back in place..." [Faints]

Sandrone: "Who's explaining this to Dottore or The Tsarista."

Childe: "I don't have a death wish, I know my limits."

Pierro: "Regrator, take her to the medic. Everyone else, Half-Right face."

Moments in Zapolyarny Palace #16

There was an accident that led to the kitchen being unavailable. Everyone, including the Harbingers, was stuck eating rations, preserved food, and whatever they could cook on a small fire.

Signora: "I'm not eating that. Is that even cooked?" [Points at a mysterious substance on her plate]

Sandrone: "it's cooked enough." [Is the one who cooked it but won't eat is herself.]

Columbina: "It could use some salt and a little citrus... but it's edible." [Calmly eating the foreign substance]

Risa: [Eating calmly, they had survived Dottore’s cooking]

Arlecchino: [Eating. Is used to either burning or under cooking things]

Dottore: "It looks like a failed experiment." [Can go months without substance.]

Childe: "It's fine." [Has younger siblings, has put things that looks like it has come from the abyss in his stomach]

Pantalone: [Had the Mora to order food for himself]

Pierro: [Unconscious, dying from food poisoning]

Pulcinella: [Didn't touch it, has had enough cases of flood poisoning at his age.]

Capitano: [Doesn't really need to eat and has to deal with the taste of his own rotting flesh whenever the smell hits his nose.]

Scaramouche: [Straight up refused]

Moments in Zapolyarny Palace #15

Arlecchino, Risa, The twins, and Freminet ended up in the My Hero universe from a leyline malfunction for a while and came back with two extra members of the hearth.

Dottore: "I'm confused." [He looks down at the little girl Risa brought to the palace in confusion.]

Risa: "This is your niece, Eri."

Dottore: "How?"

Childe: "I can explain this one, my friend. You see.... when a man and a woman, or in this case Arlecchino and Xia, love each other, they do certain things-"

Scaramouche: "We know how babies are made! Why does this one look like him?!" [Points at Dottore] "Risa is adopted!"

Risa: "Maybe we're distantly related, we both have Sumerian orgins."

Scaramouche: "When did you even? This child is too old to be yours and that woman's, the other one makes sense-" [He points to the infant cradled in Risa's arms turns of brown and white curls framing its head. It's eyes having distinct red crosses.] "But this one doesn't, it's too old." [Gesturing to Eri]

Risa: "We took her in."

Dottore: [Let's out a relieved breath] "I was worried. You and Arlecchino wouldn't- What color is your hair when your powers are dormant?"

Risa: "Brown..."

Childe: "My point exactly."

Dottore: "The Knave has white hair.... is there any other descendants of the Crimson moon dynasty that I'm unaware of?"

Scaramouche: "No, she's the only living one. [Amused] Well, she was... the population is up to a 2."

Risa: "Her name is Myra."

Dottore: ". . ."

_______________

Arlecchino: "I knew what I was doing. My beef is with him, not my wife."

Risa: "We got married?"

Arlecchino: "Hold out your hand."

Risa:??? [They held their hand out to her.]

Arlecchino: "Yes, yes we did." [She slipped a silver ring on their finger."

Risa: ". . ."

Eri: "Auntie Rosalyne said that Mom would let me visit Mondstadt.

Scaramouche: "You've met Signora?"

Evens and Odds

“When an even number meets another even, the outcome remains even, a steadfast truth. Subtracting one even from another yields the same result, a harmony of numbers. Two odds, when united, create an even sum, a curious twist of fate. Likewise, removing one odd from another leads to an even result, a balance restored. Yet, when an odd number encounters an even, the result turns odd, a disruption in the flow. To remedy this, one must either eliminate the odd or introduce another to restore equilibrium.

People mirror this dance of numbers; an odd soul may seek another to find balance, yet what happens when a new odd enters the scene? The equilibrium falters, and one may find themselves outnumbered, realizing that the new odd complements the other better than they ever could. Thus, one stands alone, the solitary odd amidst a sea of evens.”    

Paimon sensed the inevitable moment approaching.

The moment when her adventures with The Traveler would reach their conclusion.

The moment when The Traveler would reunite with their sibling.

The moment The Traveler would journey to another realm.

The moment The Traveler would part ways with her.

Once more, she would be cast aside.

Alone again.

All she could do was measure the seconds as they transformed into minutes, then hours, days, weeks, months, and ultimately years.

As they traversed from one nation to another.

From Mondstadt to Liyue.

From Liyue to Inazuma.

From Inazuma to Sumeru.

From Sumeru to Fontaine.

From Fontaine to Natlan.

From Natlan to Snezhnaya.

With each land they explored, they drew nearer to The Traveler's sibling, and closer to the end of their shared journey.

She attempted to dismiss it, yet in every nation, there was an oddity, but each oddity was balanced by another.

Venti and Dvalin.

Zhongli and Childe.

Raiden Ei and Yae Miko.

Wanderer and Nahida.

Furina and Neuvillette.

Mavuika and Xilonen.

The Tsarista and her Harbingers.

The list continued, swirling in her mind.

She was an oddity, and The Traveler was too, yet The Traveler's sibling was also an oddity, balancing The Traveler in ways she could never achieve.

At times, she wished they would never find their sibling, to avoid the heartache of separation. She kept this thought buried deep.

But then she recognized that such a wish would sadden The Traveler, and she could never bear to bring them sorrow; they were her sole companion, and she didn’t want to cause them pain. What kind of friend would she be if she did?

What sort of guide would she be if she failed to lead them to their sister? She was merely a guide; her personal feelings should not interfere with her responsibilities. After all, she was just an annoyance.

Guilt washed over her; how could she ever harbor such a wish? She dreaded the thought of being left alone once more.

What if no one came to her aid next time?

What if no one could rescue her from the ocean as The Traveler had once done before?

What if she remained the outlier forever?

Her role was to assist the traveler until they no longer required her to balance their journey.

Then she would revert to being the odd one again. Perhaps that was preferable; she would always be the one who stood apart.

“Paimon, come— is something bothering you? You’re usually more talkative.” The traveler glanced back, their golden eyes reflecting concern.

“Nothing’s wrong! I— Paimon is perfectly fine! Paimon was just pondering what you might cook for dinner. Paimon’s really craving some sticky honey roast; it’s been ages since we had that!” She quickly shook her head and flitted around the traveler in excitement.

“Your stomach is deeper than the abyss.” The traveler looked at her with a blank expression before shaking their head, a gentle smile forming on their lips.

She was okay, truly. She would remain with The Traveler until they located their sibling and moved on without her. For the moment, she would ignore the throbbing pain in her chest.

Being the only odd one out didn’t bother her, truly.

Equilibrium - Balance

Based off of Act IV: Chapter IV (Bedtime Story). From Genshin Impact.

In an African Animals AU, what would everyone be?

I planned to put Arlecchino as a lioness who took over her pride.

Risa as a Jackal

Freminet as a Bat eared fox

Lyney and Lynette as Servals

Il Dottore as a Hyena

Childe as a Rüppels Fox or Wild dog

Pantalone as a Fork tailed drongo.

I'm still thinking about other characters
