Chapter 2.
You felt you've been dumped in cold water once you woke up after you suddenly lost consciousness, you are sweating cold still paralyzed at the dirty ground, once you gain energy to stand up, you fall back but your one knee prevents you from falling completely, you breath heavily trying not to pass out again, you look around hoping that someone could help you but the only thing you see was a destroyed, abandoned temple.
Your eyes widen in panic that makes you stand up completely, you look around and hit a feeling of familiarity, you remember you used to explore this ruin, not in reality but in a game, a game that you once became addicted to, but that's impossible, if this abandoned temple only exists in the game, how did you got here?
You look at your palms then notice its tan-skin, you become tense and begin to investigate the rest of your body and slowly put piece by piece together.
'Am I... Am I Cyno??'
You loudly exclaimed in your head. You panic and begin walking left and right while biting your fingers, nor should I say, Cyno's fingers?
"No! This is my body! Wait no-... Wait what??" you stammered in panic by yourself, you have no idea what to do nor what to think "w-wait, maybe... maybe this is a dream??" you said to yourself and finally decided a conclusion in your situation, you look at the entrance of the pyramid and see the desert, you look in disbelief since you've never been in an actual desert before, you tried to remember the map of the game but the image ended up distorted.
You were conflicted by the situation, you can't stay in the pyramid due to a lack of food and water, and if the academia were alarm at the mahamatra disappearance it will take a couple of days for them to find "you", and if you decided to go out, there'll be a possibility that you won't survive in sandstorm and wondering enemies, best scenario you'll find food and water though, you hope.
You groaned frustrated and slapped your forehead a couple of times before calming down, you remember you are Cyno and had a weapon to protect yourself but the only problem is... you don't know how to summon it like Cyno did.
"okay, I can do this..." You said as you exhaled, you close your eyes and continue to clear your mind as you focus, you felt the power of Cyno's vision electrocuted your body but your meditating mind completely turned the pain into a slight tingle, you slowly open your eyes and saw the weapon slowly appearing but you lost your deep focus and you've been intensely electrocuted making the weapon fell then disappeared "great..." you sigh in disbelief.
Despite the danger and fear of dying you completely decided that you have to leave the temple and travel back to Sumeru, while you were traveling, you noticed how scary silence Sumeru's desert was, you never noticed it then while playing Genshin, maybe because you are not in your character's shoes at some point, you now felt guilty for leaving them in the desert when feel like logging out. You sigh then look around to find a sign of life, anything nor anyone except for hilichurls nor any other threats.
While you carry on traveling you started to wonder how you got here again, you know you concluded your situation as a dream but you weren't even going to sleep then, you try to remember but your mind tells you nothing, as you keep wondering absent minded, you've attracted an enemy, you were confused at the noise behind you but before you could completely turned around the Primal Construct shot at your direction that sent you flying, thankfully you weren't injured but slightly burned since it didn't shot you directly.
The machine makes another sound threatening to shoot you again, of course you run since you have nothing to defend yourself, you dodge its attack running for your life like a mad man, you look back and the freaking thing was chasing you! You panic and try again to summon Cyno's weapon, your distress ignores the pain of the intense electricity, you gasp finally manage to summon the weapon under your grasp and in a panic you stiffly swing the weapon then throw it right straight on its eye, the machine dropped as its body went paralyzed because of the electro that went with the spear, you breath heavily feeling your heart beat shakes your whole body, you stand there frozen in fear unable to move until a familiar voice was calling for you
"Cyno!! Are you alright?!" Paimon exclaimed in worry as she and the Traveler quickly went running on where you stood, they looked at you worried as you silently looked at them still in fear of what recently happened "um, Cyno, are you okay?" Paimon breaks the silence when she notices you're unable to respond, you snap out of your mind and your lips twitch as you respond "I-I'm fine..." the only response you manage to voice out "are you sure, because you seem pretty traumatized on Paimon's point of view?" Paimon continues to ask "I'm fine.. really, the thing just scared me out of the sudden..." you answered again trying to sound casual, Paimon and the Traveler look at each other confused "I see, what were you doing in the desert anyways on the day of Nirmaata Ka Din?" the Traveler asked 'Nirmaata Ka- what?' you wonder confused
"u-um, I-I don't know actually..." you said while looking away "huh??" the Traveler and Paimon said in unison "l-look, a lot of things just happened recently and I can't wrap them all in my head and I just... I just wanted to go home" you explain trying to remain calm and casual, thankfully, Paimon and the Traveler understand and offer to go with you. You sigh in relief before you begin to walk with the Traveler.
"so, what was Nirmaata Ka Din, again?" the Traveler asked confused to Paimon while you walked behind them listening "huh!? Seriously, didn't Zhongli already explained to you in a great long, 3 hours details what it was??" Paimon exclaimed slightly irritated, Traveler just scratches their head while laughing nervously "I seem to forgot since-.. you know a lot of things just happened recently..." Traveler said cautiously as Paimon placed both of her tiny hands to her hips while floating, you just chuckles silently finding their bond amusing
"Nirmaata Ka Din is a festival that was known as the day of the Creator and every nation celebrates it in one whole month, some nations celebrate it once a week in the past but Rex Lapis insists that the festival will last for a month than any other festivals to show the Creator how much an important deity they were..." Paimon explains and it caught your attention, Creator? you've never heard there's a high deity in the game name The Creator?
"...both gods and humans must celebrate it and the ones who don't celebrate it, well- umm, Paimon's not sure, there are no single souls in Teyvat that doesn't really celebrate the Creator's festival..." Paimon said "so, it's like a birthday?" Traveler asked "not really, no one actually knew where and how the Creator was born, their existence was pretty much a mystery..." Paimon answered as you keep listening in interest "plus The Creator's festival isn't even a birthday celebration but it's like a call for The Creator to come back, since gods hear and answer prayers the 7 archons established this festival so humankind and other deity got together and pray for their Creator to come back to Teyvat..." Paimon explains, the information shocks you that made you stop walking
"originally it's supposed to make the whole land of Teyvat to pray for the Creator's return but it became something that brought the gods and humans together..." Paimon explains, they began to notice that you haven't been following them, they both look at you confused "uh, Cyno?" Paimon called out "the Creator, who's the Creator?" you accidentally muttered and both of them look shocked "Cyno, are you okay?! you've been acting strangely recently??" Paimon is the first one to react as always, you look confused but remember you are not "you" in this world, you are "Cyno", you figured Cyno might know a lot of the Creator than you, despite you are curious to know who is this Creator you keep your mouth shut for the sake of Cyno "oh! uh, sorry, I can't really think clearly since I feel exhausted..." you lied and again they believe it "oh, I see, you want to rest for a bit before continuing-..."
"no, Traveler, i-it's fine, if we stop now we might arrive at Aaru Village pretty late, I see you two are going to Aaru Village to visit, right?" you bet your whole life in a non-existing gamble to be right "that's right, Dehya wrote us a letter to come and visit Sumeru for the celebration..." Paimon said and continues to explain that Candace is inviting them to her home for the celebration and the others will be there too then continue yapping about the variety of food that be served until the Traveler stops her and brings her mind back to reality
"so, yeah, you were going, right, well obviously you were!" Paimon said after you nod the three of you continue your journey to Aaru Village.
"Traveler, Paimon, it's good to see you two again!" Candace exclaimed after the three of you enter inside the house "Candace, long time no see, how are you?" the Traver spoke, as the three continued having a cheerful reunion, you were standing in the doorway feeling anxious, sure, you've been here in the game but in real time it's just incredible, you didn't notice the door just open and Alhaitham just enters inside bumping you slightly "oh, general mahamatra, I haven't heard from you since hours ago..." Alhaitham said sound concern despite his calm expression, you didn't respond, you failed to acknowledge you've been intensely staring at him for a sec, when you noticed how weird you look you look away "a lot of things happened and I'm tired to talk about.. it..." you only reply pretending to be Cyno as always but deep inside your heart is beating rapidly "I see, have you manage to caught the researcher yet?" Alhaitham asked and you fell silent for a sec "caught.. who?..." before things fell in awkward silence like before Dehya chaimed in the conversation by approaching the both of you "hey, you two, don't just stand there come and take a seat..." she said and the two man nodded, when you took a seat at the table you didn't notice Alhaitham took a glimpse at you in the further left seat of the table suspiciously before turning his head away
"oh Cyno, you're here!" Tighnari said as he walked inside the house with Collie "I just arrived.. w-with the Traveler..." you swear that if you stutter one more time you're going to throw yourself "ah I see, where did the three of you meet?" Tighnari asked again as he took a seat beside him "at the desert, I was just finished fighting with a wandering machine there..." Tighnari looks at you suspiciously "oh, why were you in the desert, aren't you supposed to be resting since it's Nirmaata day, plus you've been experiencing a strange psychosis lately, it really concerns me when you explain it" he said as he looked at you concern, you just look back in confusion having no idea what he's talking about "I-I'm fine, honestly I forgot about it since it disappeared..." you said smiling slightly still had no clue what voices Cyno had been having "oh, that's good to hear then just tell me if it comes back all of the sudden..." Tighnari said and you nodded in response.
The evening goes on and you look around feeling surreal, at some point you started to think this isn't a dream anymore but a new reality set for you, your interaction with the other characters in the game in real time really made you the happiest since you've been dreaming to actually interact with them outside the game's codes, you sigh in relief as you smiled before you felt your mind went light and your eyes is shutting on their own.
Welcome back Creator, may your creations worship you once again.
A/N: Tysm for reading! I know I haven't updated for two whole weeks?? 馃槶 since stuff happened irl, thank you for your patience, hope you enjoy this recent chapter. I'll be correcting the errors soon but for now I must sleep.

Cyno and the God.
Summary: An unexpected bond between the Creator! Reader and Cyno.
Tw: Auditory hallucinations.
Chapter 1.
Cyno has been feeling pretty odd lately, every time he's on a mission nor on breaks he feels that someone, or something is watching him. At first he tries to ignore it but as time goes by it becomes worse, he hears laughter and muffled conversations when everything around him is peacefully silent, when he brings it up to Tighnari he seems not to understand and tells him to rest because it might be stress messing off his mind.
One night, Cyno found himself gazing at the ceilings while laying in bed, he doesn't understand why he's been acting like this and why he started acting like this, he finds it annoying hearing certain things that aren't even real but Cyno thank god that the voices were silent tonight as he falls asleep.
When morning arrived, Sumeru streets was already crowded and blissful, Cyno remembers it was already Nirmaata Ka Din, a festival dedicated for the Creator of Teyvat, but Cyno was too busy to celebrate the day instead he was on a mission capturing an researcher that commits an academic offense.
While on the researcher's trails he noticed that there were no longer voices speaking on his mind, he was relieved before going back focusing on his mission.
After hours of playing cat and mouse with the researcher Cyno finally caught up and found the man inside one of the abandoned pyramids looking at the ceilings where the light poured down from the cracks, Cyno was about to arrest the man when he spoke
"do you still hear them?"
He said in a quiet voice, Cyno just look at the man suspiciously "the voices, I believe you heard them often, yes??" the researcher said in a low shaky voice as he turned around and looked at Cyno in wide eyes, Cyno was confused about what was the man accusing him with "implying such lies does not save you from being arrested, plus accusing a general Matra with a strange psychosis would make your crimes even worst" Cyno said as he summoned his weapon, the man panic as he took a step back.
Cyno was about to arrest him when suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his head that feels like that it'll split his head open, Cyno fell in one knee holding his head as he groaned in pain as the strange voices came back and started flooding his head but this time it was louder, Cyno heard conversations, laughter and music overlap with each other, he screamed loud in pain and a single voice screams along with him before his vision went dark.
When Cyno gains his consciousness again he finds himself sitting down on a table full of feast with the Traveler and the others, he looks around confused while the table field with joyful conversations "you look pale all the sudden, is there's something wrong?" Candace asked Cyno who was beside him, Cyno just looks bewildered as he place his hand on his head pushing his hair back while breathing slowly
"h-how... How did I get here?" he asked and everyone look at each other confused then back to Cyno "what do you mean, you brought yourself in here?" Dehya said breaking the silence "brought myself-??... I-I don't remember bringing myself here, I was a-about to arrest someone and- and..."
"Cyno..." Cyno's endless chatter stops as Tighnari brings his mind back to reality "arrest someone? But when me and the Traveler found you in the desert you seemed like you had no idea why you were there in the first place?" Paimon spoke as she look at Cyno confused, Cyno look at her confused too having zero memory of him meeting her and the Traveler in the desert "plus, you were acting a bit strange when you enter the house, you seemed to be hesitant, or rather shy" Dehya chaimed in "that's true, in fact I've noticed how your expression melt when you started interacting with us, it's something I never thought the general mahamatra had..." Alhaitham said while crossing his arms, Cyno look at the man sternly as he crossed his arms too "and what kind of expression I was expressing?" he asked Alhaitham
"oh? You seriously forgot?" he answered in a haft taunted voice, Cyno was about to say something in annoyance "but still, you should be careful, mister Cyno, tiring your body so much can cause you to be mentally and physically unstable that's why you are showing signs of short memory term" Collie said, Cyno froze for a sec as he lower his head
'No, that's impossible, I swear it's more than that...' Cyno said to himself, but in the end, Cyno just sigh "I... I guess, you're right Collie, sometimes I overworked myself so much that I forgot to take good care of myself" Cyno said and the atmosphere of the room turned to relief, Cyno thanked everyone who was concerned for him and the night continued to be joyful again.
Next chapter.
A/N: thanks for reading hope you enjoyed this piece I wrote instead of sleeping, stay tuned for more chapters (I hope).
also, Nirmaata Ka Din is Hindu translated for Creator's day (just messing around with Google translator, idk).

Sagau Brainrot
Tw: grammar errors and... cringe???
------------------
Imagine, the reader was transported in Teyvat and their memories from their world, where they originally came from, was completely wipe out because of the transportation process.
They found themselves believing they were a native citizen in Teyvat and become fond of the archons according on the respective nation they were transported, and become their most loyal and devoted follower. Now, Imagine the archons faces when they found out that the real creator, their grace, was their most loyal follower.
And also, when they try to convince them that they are their god, the creator. It made the reader deeply offended and upset.
"Wha- No, I'm just an ordinary mortal, I can't be the "real" Teyvat's creator, that's blasphemous!" you shouted to the archons which you, some, did not recognize because of their mortal disguise. They were dumbfounded to your outburst and when they try to explain the situation you kneel down with your hands clasp together, eyes tightly shut and pray
"Oh dear creator and [insert archon here], forgive me and these people for the wrongful accusations, I pray you enlightened them the truth!" you cried as the archons just stare at you concerned and mentally panicking. It take awhile for the reader to regain their memories.
