dreamt about a knight coming to you after a battle and getting on his knees in front of you and roaming his hands up your legs and smearing blood across your skin as he rests his cheek against your upper thigh. btw. additionally i would like to add taking his helmet off and hearing it rattle against the stone floor and running your hands through sweaty hair and praising him for protecting your kingdom. anyways.

local almost-always-(mostly)-canon-compliant kinnie experiences the alternate universe kinsider,,,

would be my first AU-exclusive kin for genshin, actually; i have a couple kins who i align with both canon and AU versions of, but none where i kin only an AU version and not a (mostly) canon-compliant one

UNLESS this new kinsider pans out?? still figuring things out but i think i have some sort of teen!Klee?? ~16yo instead of the canon 7-ish, still living at Knights Headquarters and being looked after by Kaeya, Albedo, Jean, etc. (just obviously in a different capacity with the difference in ages). buddies with bennett, razor, and diona!!

on the off chance any of that sounds like one of your Klees, feel free to reach out and i’m happy to chat while i delve into this kinsider! my kinnie blog is @dandelionkinspace <3

mondstadt kincall!

hey everyone!! im a jean gunnhildr kinnie looking for other mondstadters (primarily diluc, kaeya, thoma, and barbara).

interact with this post, dm me, or send me an ask if you'd like to chat!

[dandelionkinspace]

i talked SOOOO much shit about how many genshin kins i have in my first ask. and yet here i am to yap about the same damn kin yet again.

🌼🗡️ finally back again. i sort of fell out of focusing on kin stuff lately as i’ve been swamped with school and my (unpaid 🙄) work-study for the better part of the last three-ish months maybe? and will continue to be stupid busy for the next month or so.

but its cycled back around and now i’m using kin stuff to make my busy schedule easier. and that’s how i end up in your askbox yapping about jean gunnhildr again, mod lyney!!

jean’s been so comforting to me recently as i deal with the start of a new academic term and being a project manager for the first time (my dream role, but a lot of responsibility). i’m sure it’s easy to see why she’s been such a help LOL. her dedication and ambition have been really inspiring, and it feels in a sense like she’s taking care of me. i know she would want me to maintain a better life balance than her own.

memories have been trickling in via this whole vibe too, but only foggy ones and little snapshots. but no matter how small, i’ll always enjoy new memories of mond.

idk 🤷 but things like this make me remember that this is why i kin. its not that deep to me (just personal preference, folks who take it seriously i LOVE that for you /gen) but it can still be such a comfort and a great way to unwind.

🌼🗡️ again, apologies for living in your inbox lately!! i hope someone out there is enjoying my mondstadt ramblings.

it feels incredibly fitting that my jean kin (shifts, mems, etc.) are rarely individualistic. friends, family, the whole of mondstadt, are an inherent part of who i am as jean and it seems very appropriate for the character.

idk it brings me comfort for some reason, how dear mondstadt is to me in all parts of my jean.

for mondstadt, as always. yknow?

you're in my memories tonight, Master Crepus. (i sincerely hope that comes off fondly/nostalgically, and not in a creepy way!)

weed always gets me reminiscing for whatever reason (don't worry, it's legal where i am). if i have a truly indulgent amount, it puts me in a fuzzy headspace that feels similar to a lot of my positive memories of Mond.

there's a specific memory in my mind tonight. i'm not sure if you recall the same, but i'll tell the story just in case. writing in character from here on out.

it was a bone-chilling and miserable winter day, the ground covered with wet snow to knee height. i was roughly thirteen and returning from my very first solo expedition, the one i'd been near hysterics over getting approval for. and as i was trudging through Windrise, my boots starting to soak through and my hair falling from its updo to stick to my sweaty, wind-burned face and my weighty pack listing to one side, i saw the edge of the Winery vineyards. i knew i was meant to be returning to Headquarters to fill in my report, but it was so cold and my legs were burning and i was chomping at the bit to gloat at Kaeya and Diluc about my expedition.

i promised myself i would only stop in to warm up and chat for a short while, and headed up to the Manor door. as i'd expected, Diluc and Kaeya hung on every word of my story about the trip. i was on cloud nine recounting the tiniest of details and fudging the grandeur of my experience. and then Miss Adelinde offered us cocoa, and you hummed a tune while flipping through a book, and the fireplace kept the room bathed in orange heat. it would be more than enough to lull me into a doze even now, let alone then.

and doze i did, my head drooped over to rest on top of Kaeya's. and after a blurry amount of warm time, you wrapped me in your strong arms and carried me into a spare bedroom, tucked me under the covers, and kissed the top of my head. i kept my eyes shut and my breaths even through the entire thing. if you remember this night at all, i suspect you never realized i'd woken up.

i apologize for keeping the secret all this time. i felt so comforted and cared for in that moment, a sense of love and security i can't recall the last time i recieved from my own parents. i suppose i worried that the moment would end and the spell would break if i revealed i was awake.

thank you for filling in for some of my parents' gaps.

and when i woke properly the next morning i was so ashamed of missing my check-in at the Ordo that i fled the Winery like it was infested, and i apologize for that as well. my embarassment at my training failure was no excuse for how snappy i became with you all that morning.

no longer writing in character, anyway, DAMN there's memories in the weed pen. this keeps happening to me with jean. i hope you enjoyed hearing my reminiscing, apologies if it's a little vent-y (haha. vent-y, Venti, either that's actually funny or its just 4am).

Thanks for reading if you've made it this far.

I appreciate you taking the time to write so much, it paints a clear picture of your memories; it's always nice to recall these things.

The detail makes me feel like I can recall this. Maybe I'm just imagining it. But I do remember who I was as a person and this sounds a lot like me and the kind of things I'd do.

I remember, during the colder months, we'd have the fireplace going. Different decor would be scattered everywhere. My boys would go out and play in the snow while I stayed inside doing paperwork until my eyes were hazy. And then I'd take a break to play in the snow too. I enjoyed taking the occasional break and participating in silly little games.

Adelinde, the poor gal, she'd get so fussy because all of us would drag the snow back inside. Trust and believe she was yanking my ear with a "Crepus!" (I adore her!) She was so caring and lovely even if she was a little rigid with the rules.

As for Jean, I remember her being a close friend of both Kaeya and Diluc. I was (kind of) friends with the family too. So, there were definitely some strong bonds there. I remember Jean teaching Diluc to wish on dandelions. Told him that the seeds carried the secrets on the wind and that they'd make their way to Barbatos.

Speaking of Diluc, but he was very energetic as a child and I am absolutely shocked by how 😐😑😐 he is in game. He was a fireball!

(Sorry for getting sidetracked! I start rambling and include everything that pops into my brain!)

I saw Jean as family and treated her as such.

me whenever i relate to a character: yeahh sorry this ones trans. yeah i dont make the rules. sorry.

(recreational weed use cw)

i was born in the RIGHT generation. i love legal weed and smoking myself into kinshifts ✌️🤩🤪✌️ (reference/online trend)

there was a very nostalgic jean gunnhildr in my weed gummy tonight.

i’m thinking about kaeya. one time in particular, when we were teenagers, when he’d hit his growth spurt and could run and climb faster than me for the first time in our lives. we’d been racing for genuine hours, down the same stretch of road, up the same tree and back down it, across a pond, and down a hill to the road ahead, and repeat. i was bound and determined to beat him, far beyond my usual stubbornness.

in hindsight, i realize how few of my frustrations were actually tied to kaeya’s sudden abilities, and feel some regret for the fierceness with which i insisted we repeat the race again. and again. and again. but he obliged me, let me take my hidden, hot anger and pound it into the ground beneath my boots. and he beat me every time, just by a few seconds, enough to make me pound my fists against his chest. half in playful frustration at losing, half in relief at the way he absorbed my powerless rage with every beat of my hands.

the sun was setting and i’d begged him to run our course with me just one more time. and he obliged me. he always does. and whether it was mania or adrenaline or teenagehood-fuelled insanity, something was different that time, and i beat him. despite his new four inches of lanky legs acquired seemingly overnight, i beat him. and i blasted past our decided finish line and turned back, wiping sweat out of my stinging eyes to see kaeya, jogging over the edge of the hill and grinning at me.

he’d so obviously let me win that i absolutely pummelled him into the dirt. he was limping on our walk back to Headquarters, i felt bad then and i still feel bad now.

but halfway through bruising up the only person i would act this way around, i burst into uncontrollable tears. and he was so gracious. he let me collapse on top of him and sat in the grass staining his uniform with grass and my snot. and he didn’t say a word. didn’t try to placate me or croon nonsense. he was just there until i pulled myself together, and then he offered me his handkerchief and a hand getting up.

we didn’t say a word until we got back to Headquarters. we’d changed out of our uniforms and were about to head in different directions towards our homes when we both turned to face each other at the same time. we overshot our steps and ended up within inches of each other. i’m fairly certain his lips grazed my forehead.

i’ve never forgotten a single sensation of that moment. time stood still in that instant, one second stretched to an eternity. i wholeheartedly believe that something shifted in that moment between kaeya and i. we became something special, tied ourselves inextricably together.

i fear i may have fallen in love with him then.

i know i will never do anything about it if i did.

ANYWAYS. DAMN. there’s kin memories in the edibles.

hey!! new follower, former casual lurker here. i have many genshin kins but the jean mems are Hitting tonight

thinking about diluc, crepus, thoma, master crepus, miss adelinde. all the time i spent at the dawn winery growing up, basically any time i could get permission to go out that far (and a lot of times i chose to ask for forgiveness instead of permission. oops).

but things always felt so warm and welcoming out there, even in the dead of winter. miss adelinde was always happy to see us coming, so long as we didn’t track mud over her fresh mopping and left our swords by the door of course. and master crepus was great to have a conversation with. he always seemed genuinely interested in what we had to say, too, not just passively asking questions and not really listening. he always had an interesting story to tell!

summers were the absolute best, though, especially when we were all teenagers. we’d roam the property basically from sunrise to well past sundown, finding cliffs to jump off into the water, climbing trees, training, having picnics, making fires, and talking about anything and everything.

if any of this sounds familiar to anyone i mentioned above, feel free to message me! i’m on here as @dandelionkinspace :)
