I love your furina!mc series. Not only is every piece written wonderfully but it really stimulates the imagination.

Imagine like in the 4.4 lantern rite - Navia, Neuvillette & Clorinde go to Chenyu Vale and they overhear someone calling out MC's name and Neuvillette recognises it since it was on his wrist for so long. The other two halt when Neuvillette stops to look at him and all 3 see a resident calling out to Furina!MC and she responds to them.

The crushing feeling Neuvillette would experience and he's about to call out to her only to see one of the usurpers stand next to her give her a side hug then take Furina!MCs hand.

He'd stop but Navia & Clorinde would still recognise her and go over and Furina!MC could either say it was a new name she took up or that the name Furina was the name the hydro archon gave her and now she had withdrawn from the role - she decided to go back to her old name again.

And Neuvillette overhears and his heart is just shattered because it all aligns - he felt like he lost his soul mate around the time Furina!MC disappeared and the name matches and hearing MC talk about when she met Zhongli and how the became soulmates.

I just had an idea for Furina! Mc soulmate au.

So basically Furina has our dear index’s name written on her: and she’s nervous and excited (and fearful) about meeting her. But the issue comes when they first meet and he doesn’t have Furina- he has her old old name, MC.

And Furina like in the beginning was like internal- ‘it’s might be me- that’s that’s my name- it it might be me’ but over time (and being Furina for so long) that she’s like ‘okay probably not me, very heavily likely not me. I would know by now if it was me.’

Now I image at somepoint after the trial and all that Furina just needs to get away from everything: the (her) index, the people of Fontaine harassing her and just to be free of her acting. So she’s leaves and heads to chenyu vale and settles down there working at a tea house and one day Meets Zhongli (I image his soulmate is dead [Read: Guizhonh]) and those two kinda settle into a relationship.

Meanwhile our index knows something is seriously wrong because while previously he held a sixth sense of his soulmate being within Fontaine and now it’s just gone- outside of his reach and Fontaine has been thundering for days now.

This idea also works well with the exile and diary au’s!

Anyways your thoughts?

Oh, here we go! Note, this isn't gonna take place in either the exile or diary aus.

Well, to start us off, Furina!Mc original had no idea her soulmate was Neuvillette, because the scribbled across her wrist said Leviathan, his pre-Neuvillette Sovereign name.

It's only after meeting him for the first time does Furina!MC's wrist burn, signaling this was her soulmate!

.... Only, he never reacts to Furina!MC. And its only after 100 or so years that she finds out the name he has is orginal self's name. The one she had back in her past life. And Furina!MC... she finally let's go of her stinf hope for her soulmate, for hope that canon would be different.

Because there was no way, even with his name on her wrist, that Neuvillette would believe that her name. It didn't help that Furina!MC knew about his own view on her. A selfish, bratty Goddess.

Not at all worthy of Soulmate material...

So, fast forward to post prophecy, and Furina!MC finally leaves Fontaine. She didn't feel safe there, not with her people harassing her so viciously, the Steambird dragging her name through the mud, her house being vandalize, and so on.

And Neuvillette never did a thing. he offers some poor comfort, but he immediately turns his attention to more important matters.

Furina!MC was not an important matter, not anymore. Or was she ever?

It brings up the question that's always floating through head... if she ever told him her true name, would anything have been different? Would he had saved her from Focalors? Would he have stopped giving her cold stares, brushing her away...

So, she left, ignoring the throbbing pain coming from her wrist where Neuvillette's name laid...

...She eventually settles into Liyue, throwing her 'Furina' name, and taking back her old, rightful name of MC.

She found a small job at a tea house that didn't mind she was foreign, and things went from there... only for a few weeks after arriving to her new home, does she bump in Zhongli.

And suddenly, things start to change. For the better.

Zhongli knew who she was, but even so welcome her to his nation. He invites her out to tea and walks, they chat about this and that, and soon, MC starts to notice the pain she used to constantly feel on her wrist had begun to lessen...

...One day, while having tea in Zhongli's home, he brings up the topics of soulmates. He asks her if she had one... she answers honestly.

"I... I do, but... b-but he doesn't know it's me, and even then, he never-"

Her hands began to shake; her wrist starts burning again as she remembers all the cold and harsh moments between her and Neuvillette. How he never once defended her, how he ignored the abuse she went through from all of Fontaine-

"...If he knew, he would've immediately destroyed the mark."

She says it shakily but matter of fact. Because it's true. It only took her 400 years to finally come to terms with it.

Zhongli stays quiet, before shifting around to sit beside her on the couch taking off one of his gloves, and pulls down his sleeve-

There was a scar on his wrist. MC knew what that means. When a soulmate dies, their partner gains a scar over their dead partner's name...

He tells her about Guizhong, how much he loved her... only to lose her in the Archon war. He says he thought he lost the ability to love another like he did with her... until... MC.

MC looks at him with shock. It doesn't truly hit her what he was talking about until he took off his other glove and rolled down that sleeve to show-

Her name. It was still faint, but the more MC looked at it, the clearer it became.

She heard of this phenomenon, when a soul pair either loses a soulmate to either death or to them forcing their mark to fade because they didn't want them, on their other wrist, sometimes a second soulmate's name will appear.

So to see it happening with her name...

"Y-you like me? You... you want to l-love me?"

Zhongli nods, and MC cries with a weak but happy smile on her face as he brings her into a hug, and unknown to her, the name on her wrist that read Leviathan, starts to slowly fade, and on her other wrist, the name Morax slowly begins to form...

And back in Fontaine, a violent storm never before seen in Fontaine begins to form as Neuvillette stares down horrified as the name that's been his constant since he reincarnated as a human starts to fade away.

Long Awaited Wish: Descent of Our Beloved Star (5)

I'm gonna be so honest, I think this one is probably my worst other than a few bits about doubts and thanks. Otherwise I think it's kind of meh. Ngl, I think part of it is that I just want to get to certain parts that are coming up closer to the end. Still, I want to finish this so I can improve. Based on where we are now, I'd say that there will be two more parts and then multiple endings, one for each nation. I'd prefer to release them all at once but that's still about 6 chapters so after Mondstadt it will probably be awhile before those get posted unless I don't try to fill it up more

Part 1, Prev

Back and forth in circles the god of eternity paced. She was rarely one to obsess over the opinions of others regarding her, but this time was very different. This time was about you. 

You were surely on your way already, yet she heard nothing of your arrival. 

Though she wanted to put it behind her, she was aware that her own actions were to blame for the land of electro’s lack of general appeal. The nation was still largely in shambles in the wake of the vision hunt decree and the havoc that she allowed the Fatui to wreak. 

She worried that you would simply skip Inazuma, then found herself disgusted by her own doubt. How could she believe that the guiding light would do such a thing? Even if not for her, at the very least for the people. 

She heard a playful “ahem” and turned around to find a familiar grinning kitsune. “Miko,” Ei greeted with a nod, trying not to let her mood seep into her otherwise calm voice. 

“Don't tell me you're still worried you'll be skipped,” Yae teased, placing a hand on the god’s shoulder. “Do you really have such little faith in Their light?” Despite the clear joking tone, Ei couldn't help being offended by the suggestion regardless of the fact it was true.

“Of course not,” she replied, sounding to Yae’s ears like a huffy child. “Mhm,” the kitsune replied, clearly not believing her. “You know, you really have no reason to think that anyway. After all, who was it who guided the Traveler, other than myself of course, to get through to you in the midst of your grief?”

Ei looked away and crossed her arms, mildly ashamed. “Their Luminescence…”

“Right. And who introduced you to the new Inazuma, explaining to you things that others would lack the patience to teach because of how normal they are now?” Yae asked with a light poke of Ei’s arm.

“... Their Luminescence…”

“And who, other than me, was there to assist in some form or another when you were locked in battle with your puppet?” Yae questioned. “I get the point, Miko,” Ei grumbled. Despite her huffyness, the kitsune’s words were reassuring to her.

“Besides, I don't think They're able to skip any nation anyway,” Yae Miko said with a wave of her hand. “And why would They? After three festivals in a row, why wouldn't a more relaxed celebration be perfect?”

………………………

You arrived in Inazuma the day after you finished Sumeru, ready for whatever festivities there were. Unlike your first time in the nation, you were welcomed and let in very quickly. The (first) clan personally made sure the Traveler was escorted to the next island without a hitch despite the fact they could easily handle anything on the way there. 

Naturally the Kamisato clan was incredibly involved given their main responsibility. You were invited to stop by with them to say hello and play the (hotpot?) game. Technically they were supposed to be getting the finishing touches on the later events finished, but nobody in the house could resist inviting you over. Even Ayato, usually nowhere to be found at times like this, was there. 

Afterwards you, through the Traveler, were brought to the next island, straight to Inazuma city. Kujou Sara was tasked with escorting you to the winged statue. The nation took this very seriously, cautious to avoid any opportunity for someone to even think about an attack of any sort, not that anyone would try. Other than the fact that the Traveler was generally well liked, heralded as a hero, and would easily take on any random attacker, why would someone want to? Especially now that, while not to your knowledge, basically everyone was aware that the Traveler was your primary vessel. To harm them was to harm you, and who could ever do such a thing?

In front of the statue, you were met by Ei, who arrived much more humbly than her first appearance. She walked down the steps to greet you, just as anyone else would. She wouldn't dare do anything more, lest she remind you of the time she'd attempted to strike your vessel down and had the audacity to declare you, of all beings, an enemy of eternity. It was embarrassing. To declare your very existence a crime, when you were the ever-changing eternity truer than her forced stagnation could ever wish to be. How foolish.

“Hello, Traveler. How has your journey of celebration been so far?” Ei asked with hidden hope it wasn't too good. This was a competition, after all.

You hum on the other side of the screen. Though it was enjoyable, there was only so much you can do with a festival when they were so vague but they had to be so they didn't let anything slip. You still aren't even a hundred percent sure what's being celebrated. Obviously the Traveler to some extent, but other than that you weren't sure. 

Just as the words had left her mouth, Yae was at her side. “You must be a bit worn down from all the festivities, right, little one? A bit… same-y, dull even after a few days, right?” It was clear what she was trying to do to everyone there, and you couldn't help snickering a little at her blatant attempt to indirectly diss the other nations.

Ei cleared her throat. “We thought you might enjoy something a bit more calm to… break up the repetitive nature of festival after festival...” She almost felt embarrassed at the contrast between her current talk about avoiding too much of the same and, well, how she used to be the complete opposite.

“Oh! She's come a long way,” you whisper to the screen proudly. “I don't think the way they handled her was… amazing, but it's good to see stuff like this.” Normally the two would have wondered who “they” were, but at this moment they couldn't care less. Your praise is too good of a sign. Too warm to bask in for them to care about the criticism attached to it.

“Let's go relax a bit, shall we?” Yae suggested, but it wasn't really a suggestion. She ushered for both the Traveler and Ei to follow her. “I know the perfect place~” 

Given the timing of this event and the apparent relaxation theme of Inazuma's celebration, you think you know where she’s talking about. The quest prompt tells you to walk with the two electro ladies as they, “they” being Yae, chat with you. 

“Although I jest about the repetitive nature of your journey so far, I imagine for someone who spends most of their time traveling and encountering new things, celebration without rest would eventually become a bore,” the kitsune said as she led a descender and a god to a certain bathhouse. “So let’s rest, shall we? And you can tell us about the interesting things you’ve done since we last saw you. Maybe write down a thing or two.”

You watch quietly, thinking about what Yae said. You again suppose she’s right that there’s only so much that can be done with festival after festival. Something about many of the celebrations felt a little off. Not quite forced, but not completely natural either.

You were pulled out of your thoughts by Ei’s sudden “Stop.”

“Let us have something sweet. To. Aid in relaxation,” she said as she stopped next to a stand on the side of the street. Of course for some dango milk. You’re not sure if she really wants it to help the trio relax or she wants it because she just wants to indulge her sweet tooth, but you chuckle at her insistence. So now the trio was taking a short break for some sweets.

“At the end of the day, we will head to Watatsumi Island. You will be free to spend the day how you like, but please arrive at the Sangonomiya Shrine before sunset,” Ei instructed. “Now let’s continue. I want us all to have a good time, including those who are not in our party. Let’s try to enjoy our experience at the bathhouse during the time we’ve reserved so that others may do the same once we are done.”

Ah. She doesn’t want the trio’s stay to take up anyone else’s time. They must have wanted it to be just the three of you them. “Awfully considerate of you, Ei,” you murmur, and she’s so glad she took the things you and the Traveler taught her to heart. For a moment, she’s so sure of the outcome, but Yae pulls everyone back into the walk to the bathhouse. 

The rest of the Inazuma chapter goes by quickly. The trio spends some time in the bathhouse after some banter between Yae and Mizuki. Afterwards, Yae tells you not to be late and Ei wishes you well for the rest of your day. You’re left to do as you please, so you wander for a bit. Meeting up with the Arataki gang, you partake in an onikabuto beetle battle with the group. Itto spends the rest of your time together talking up himself, the idea of spending more time around here, and you/the Traveler until he tripped over himself and Kuki had to take over from there.

As the sunset draws closer, you make your way to the Sangonomiya Shrine as requested. Plenty of playable characters and NPCs alike were sitting scattered about on picnic blankets in soft colors. Yoimiya waved at the Traveler, and they waved back. They stopped to chat with the Kamisatos, a nod of acknowledgement to Kujou Sara. 

The Traveler, as your vessel, was led near the front and told to take a seat on one of the blankets. You can’t feel it, but the way it’s modeled makes you think that blanket is softer than anything you’ve ever touched in your whole life.

Murmurs carry through the air like bubbles as people take notice of Ei walking up to the Traveler. They still aren’t fully used to her being out and about, even for festivities. Although, given the purpose of this particular occasion, how could she not make an appearance. Some others add that they saw the two, along with the Guuji of the Grand Narukami Shrine, walking together earlier. Mutters of jealousy, praise, excitement, and speculation on relationships float around, but the god of eternity pays it no mind.

“For centuries I buried myself in my grief and dragged down my nation with me at the expense of many of its people. I declared your anomalous existence illegal because I didn’t bother to try understanding it,” she began, finally choosing not to let her feelings fester. “But you, in turn, came to understand me and my… behavior so you could help me understand. You guided me despite all I’ve done and still have yet to fully face. You showed me the inevitability of change and the beautiful role it plays in the pursuit of eternity. I understand now that eternity does not mean stagnation, regardless of my fears. Your assistance to Miko and the people’s will have made me accept change as I initiated it in myself.”

Ei lowered herself to sit next to you the Traveler on the soft blanket. “Thank you for all you’ve done for me and my nation. Here’s to the hope of finding long-lasting happiness, in all its forms, in the everchanging expanse of eternity that lies ahead.” She took a bite of something that looked a lot like Mizuki’s specialty, one treat out of many she’d been eating the whole day. “And here’s to the hope you’ll be here for it,” she quietly wishes.

was reading your exile au and it made me think. what about our boy dainsleif?

Funny story, me and @platinumrosetail talked about an idea like this and I forgot to make a thing out of it.

Basically we talked about him hearing about the whole 'the Hydro Archon is a fraud-' thing and going to check it out... only to find a post exiled Furina!MC wandering in a daze through Sumeru's deserts.

Still dressed in rags, with her shackles around her wrists, and chains dragging through the sand.

He hates the gods. Despises them. But this...

He ends up taking Furina!MC away to safety, to a small village between the borders of Sumeru and Liyue. A village that had no attachments to the Archons. A perfect place for a fragile soul like Furina!MC to live hidden from the world... Along with her unborn child.

With the former Archon settled into her new home, Dainsleif thought that was that. He would leave her be and he'd continue his journey.

Only, he was back there within a few weeks, checking on her. Then again. And again. And again-

He had his own room in her tiny cottage. Clothes that were his size tucked away in the closet. His favorite tea hidden in the cabinets.

And then Furina!MC's child is finally born, and the first person Furina!MC asks if they wanted to hold baby Seraphina... was Dainsleif.

And boy, the moment the babe was placed in his arms, tiny hands waving in the air, a gummy smile directed at him, and on the bed Furina!MC was smiling softly at him, expression at ease with his presence... Dainsleif knew he was fucked. In a good way!

[astrum-moon]

Mydei’s cock always feels an incredible level of deep every time he fucks you because you feel so good he can’t help but lean almost all of his weight down on top of you.

He wants to speak to you — to tell you how good you feel but when your walls are wrapped around him and your nails are tracing the red marks on his back, it’s impossible. Completely impossible. He can barely manage anything more than a broken, low groan because he doesn’t trust his voice not to break beneath the weight of his own arousal.

So Mydei bares down on you, barely pulling out with how close he is so the pleasure doesn’t let up as he grinds his cock into you. It’s consistent and dizzying and he’s so deep it almost hurts. Every thrust is heavy and suffocating, pressing you deeper into the mattress but nothing makes you feel better than the way you feel him melt into you as he wraps you up in his arms.
