Scary family

Aether:Give me the gnosis!

Scaramouche:Or what!?

Aether:I’ll tell your mom!

Scara:….I don’t have a mother dumbass.

Ei:*kicks open door* Scaramouche!

Childe:Who is that?

Scara: inhales….that would be mother. Whatever I’m not scared. I have the gnosis. Not even she could-

Baal:*peeks around corner*

Scara:Oh we gotta go.

Childe:What!?

Aether:I brought your sister too.

Childe:I don’t know. I think we could take-

Scara:No, shut up! Thunder is literally about to strike twice and I’m not here for it.

Ei:So rambunctious. Have you been eating well?

Scara:I am not your son!!!

Baal:Don’t talk to mom like that.

Scara:(I should’ve never showed up again…)

Aether:The Shogun has caused nothing but harm to her people and hurt Kazuha. I could never accept a person like that.

Kazuha:Thank you. But please don’t get too worked up for my sake. The two of us shall-

Miko:Baal was never the same after her sister died.

Aether:I bought you dangos. Wanna just enjoy the scenery and talk a bit.

Ei:I would like that very much. *smiles*

Kazuha:…..

Beidou:I’ll still be upset at her for you. *hugs him*

Kazuha:*sniifles* It’s why you’re the best captain ever.

A rough break

[1.0]

Aether:Ready for an Adventure Kaeya!?

Kaeya:Always. Let’s get going.

Two weeks later

Aether:Alright! Nice going against those pyros!

Chongyun:No problem! *epic fist bump*

Kaeya:…..

Many months later

Ganyu, built: Thanks for the materials!

Aether:Any time!

Kaeya:(He gave her wanderers. I can’t be too upset.)

Diona:Hey! Can I get some artifacts!?

Aether:Sure. I have spare HP stuff for you. Even a bow.

Kaeya:(Hmm it’s not like I can use those. But still…) *stares at lvl 50 stats*

Later

Rosaria, lvl 80: Someone’s prepared.

Aether:Of course! You’ll be perfect for a freeze comp and physical.

Kaeya:(I CAN DO- sigh…it’s fine. I’m not hurt.)

More time later

Eula:Reporting for reconnaissance!

Aether:Hell yeah! Now I have a pyro and cryo physical dps! I got everything I need for you.

Kaeya:(Okay, now I’m a little hurt…still if I had to lose to all people. Eula is quite unique.)

Two months ago

Aether:*holding cryo artifacts* Thanks Hu Tao!

Hu Tao:No sweat. So who’s the lucky teammate?

Aether:If I’m lucky, Ayaka. I even got a sword ready for her!

Kaeya:(…….)

A month ago…

Mona, C2:*sniffling* I’m sorry! Please don’t be mad!

Aether:*pats head* Seriously, it’s okay. There’s a new domain that’ll fit you perfectly anyways. All the more reason to let you shine a bit more now. I’m counting on you.

Mona:Okay! Mark my words I will not disappoint!

Aether:*holding artifacts* Well…these are far too good to get rid off. I guess I can just hold onto them for now.

Kaeya:(I am….just a call away!)

Rosaria:Aren’t you gonna ask for them?

Kaeya:If I’m not in his mind then it means he doesn’t see a spot for me. Also it wouldn’t matter. I haven’t read a single talent book…

Rosaria:….*pats back*

Kaeya:!? Are you attempting to comfort me?

Rosaria:Don’t get used to it. Just ride it out as usual. It’s not like I’m always out and about. Not that I’m complaining. I’m sure you’ll be built eventually.

two weeks ago

Sayu:*rolling around*

Aether:…..Oh! Hey Kaeya! Can you help her out- oh shoot. Your stats. Hmmm, give me two hours. Also here….*drops cryo artifacts* Lucky I still have those. I’ll be back. Sayu go say hello.

Sayu:Sup.

Kaeya:…*lifts her* Thank you.

Sayu:Please put me down…

Two days later

Kaeya, built: Haha, that felt great.

Aether:Good job! Sorry you’re only lvl70 now. I’ve been busy prepping to see Baal. Though you are perfect for a support role.

Kaeya:This works just fine. Time to strut myself.

Soon….

Knock knock knock

Kaeya:Coming. *opens door* Ye-

Aloy:Umm hello. Nice to meet you. Aether told me to see a tan guy in blue. I’m guessing that would be you but uhh…you look a little pale in the face. You okay?

Kaeya:…..

Aloy:….Hello?

Kaeya:(It was fun while it lasted.)

Baal:…..*smiles* I like this one the most.

[ghostxtreme]

Hu Tao:Hehe, hey Chongyun? What would you do if someone else tried to gain my affection?

Chongyun:…Am I not good enough?

Hu Tao:Huh? What-

Chongyun:*leans in* Am I loving you enough Hu Tao?

Hu Tao:*blushing* Y-Yes….

Chongyun:If that’s the case then why worry about anyone else if I value your love and you value mine? Are we okay?

Hu Tao: We’re fine!

Chongyun:Oh, that’s good. I do value your feelings.

Hu Tao:*flustered* (I just wanted to tease him a little! Maybe see him jealous!) You don’t have to say all that. Forget I said anything.

Chongyun:? Your face is red.

Hu Tao:It’s nothing!

Yanfei:I’ve never seen something backfire quite like that.

Zhongli:You would think she’d know better than to try that on someone as straightforward as him. I guess you can say karma is it’s own form of justice.

Weiss: Ruby! I need help flirting with Neptune!

Ruby: Weiss, you know that as your bestie, I'm always willing to help you, whether it's with school, Neptune, or whatever.

Ruby: So... he's claimed he's an "intellectual", right?

Weiss: Yeah...

Ruby: Well, whatcha gotta do is, talk to him LIKE an intellectual! Flirt with him using BIG, SCIENTIFIC, INTELLECTUAL words! Show him that you understand with him, that you CLICK with him! That's always a good thing in a relationship!

Weiss: Hmm... okay

(Later...)

Neptune: (minding his own business)

Weiss: (enters) Hey Neptune

Neptune: Oh, hey Snow Angel. What's up?

Weiss: Can I just say, Neptune...

Kazuha:*buying dangos*

Beidou:I didn’t know you had a sweet tooth.

Kazuha:I don’t really, but Yoimiya wants some.

Beidou:…How do you know that? You’ve been helping me all day.

Kazuha:Oh *points to ear* whenever she feels lonely or misses me she’ll talk aloud to the wind. I can’t respond back of course but this way she can tell me about her day and we can stay connected.

Beidou:…..*crying*

Kazuha:Beidou!?

Beidou:It’s just…why are you so adorable!? *hugs him* I raised you so well!

Kazuha:*red* You didn’t raise me at all!

Aether:Wait…so does that mean she tells you goodnight every night?

Kazuha:….

Beidou:Uuuuuggghh! That’s too cute!

Kazuha:I can’t….breathe!

Aether:*pouting* (I wanna get a goodnight every night.)

[ghostxtreme]

A busy day

Kazuha:*opens door* Aether! It’s almost ti-

Aether:*on the couch*…..

Amber:*underneath him*…….

Kazuha:I…umm. Should’ve knocked.

Amber:*blushing* Hehehe, at least we didn’t start yet. Phew….*covers face* I’m gonna die.

Aether:Umm…was there something you needed?

Kazuha:Banner, it’s today. *spots bag on table* Primos?

Aether:All yours. It’s Amber’s birthday so… you all can handle the greeting without us.

Kazuha:Ah. Understood. *grabs bag* Uhh Happy Birthday.

Amber:*muffled* Thank you.

Aether:Anything else?

Kazuha:…..You have a bedroom and you choose the couch?

Aether:You can hear rain for miles away but not foreplay one the other side of a door?

Kazuha:Understandable. Have a nice day. *closes door*

Amber:We should probably get a separate realm for this sort of thing huh?

Aether:I’ll look into it. Sigh…I guess the mood is gone?

Amber:Hmmm I wouldn’t go that far. I’m a pyro user. I’m good at rekindling things.

Aether:*blushing* O…okay.

Amber:But first, please lock that door.

Aether:Yeah that would be smart. *kisses forehead* My girlfriend is so smart.

Amber:Pfft oh hush.

[Meanwhile]

Kazuha:*hugging Yoimiya* Finally!

Yoimiya: Awww I missed you so much!

Kazuha:I built a house for us.

Yoimiya:*blushing* What!?

Family

Childe:Aether, can I be real with you for a moment?

Aether:I don’t know, can you? I’d be surprised if you could.

Childe:Okay I walked into that one. Listen, you know I like your sister and she has a thing for me.

Aether:Mmmhmm. This isn’t being real by the way. This is walking on eggshells.

Childe:I genuinely like her. So what do I have to do for you and I to get along? I want to make this work.

Aether:…A set of scales.

Childe:What?

Aether:Can you weigh your affection for my sister on a set of scales? Lumine, or your family?

Childe:That’s not fair. I love my family; of course I’d pick them. Any sane person would have picked their family if they love them.

Aether:You’re not wrong. Unfortunately for you that means we’ll never get along. I don’t trust your family in regards to Lumine’s safety.

Childe:My family would never hurt her!

Aether:Childe….to you, all of Snezhnaya is your family. You’d swear by that place with your dying breath

Childe:…

Aether:My sister deserves someone who’d want to put the world on hold for her and here you are, not even willing to take on a nation; your nation. I don’t fault you for loving home and your family that lives there. But I can’t believe in a world where you’ll save her if your people come knocking. You’re a brother, I know you understand.

Childe:Sigh…I do, but I know you have to understand how hyperbolic you are being; not to mention hypocritical. Could you weigh Lumine against Mondstadt? What if the Acting Grandmaster and all her knights came for her.

Aether:Then I’m gonna have a real bad day where I just don’t win. *walks away*

Childe:That’s…there’s a fine line between loyalty and being at someone’s whim.

Aether:Says the Harbinger.

Childe:Sigh…..touché.

[ghostxtreme]

Beidou:So Kazuha, I know you were on the run and everything in Inazuma, but how exactly did you get to the resistance. This place is a little out of the way. I thought Yoimiya hid people as well.

Kazuha:….

[past]

Kazuha:*eating*

Yoimiya:*staring*……Kazuha?

Kazuha:Yes?

Yoimiya:Don’t you think it’s a little strange to wrap only one arm?

Kazuha:Is it any weirder than the wrap patterns up your legs and hips?

Yoimiya:H…have you been sneaking a peek?

Kazuha:……..

Kazuha:*stands* I’ll find another place to hide. Thank you for your hospitality.

Yoimiya:Wait don’t leave! I’m not mad! Let’s talk about this!

Kazuha:*red*Thank you for your hospitality!

[present]

Kazuha:I didn’t want cause her trouble.

Beidou:Did you just lie to me?

Kazuha:Maybe.

Outriders

Mondstadt, the city of freedom. The city of wind. It went by many names but none were quite as flattering as one, home. Mondstadt was home; Amber’s home, and today the sun shined down with more radiance than ever as she woke up. Ah yes, no better way to start a birthday.

Amber:*hops up* Time to get the day started! Maybe if I finish early enough I can get the picnic ready and convince Eula or Aeth-

Her eyes lit up. That’s right, Aether. He’s been giving people birthday presents without fail. Now it was her turn! Amber rushed to get her outfit and wash up. At this point all other thoughts left her mind. She’s seen the cakes Aether has made. At this point he must be a pro at making them. She wondered what flavor he’d bring. A knock on the door caught here hear. Typical Aether, he always tried surprising people but she was prepared for anything!Amber ran downstairs and took a breath before stepping outside to greet the day. She wasn’t prepared to be greeted by familiar knights standing guard at her door in standard uniform.

Amber:Kaeya and Albedo? What’s-

Kaeya:I would love to play twenty questions with you…

Albedo:But it’s better to show rather than tell.

They both unsheathed their swords and stood at attention as she came out. To see not only them, but what appeared all the knights standing proudly on each side of the walk way with plenty of citizens; celica petals flowed on the gentle breeze through Mondstadt. Amber’s face began to feel warm. This was not a cake. Amber looked at Albedo and Kaeya to see them smiling. Clearly she wasn’t going to get an answer so she started walking, the two of them following close behind. Each set of soldiers she passed joined to form a line in step with their colleagues.

Shop owners smiled, Timeaus waved, the likes of Sucrose and Noelle joined the line silently as Amber went up stairs where more soldiers soldiers stood at attention until it was time to fall in line. Diluc and Eula stood up in the standard uniform as well like everyone else. Amber grinned ear to ear and almost spoke until a look from a frustrated Diluc kept her snickering quietly. The two, joined by Klee, walked beside her as they headed towards the statue. The Spark Knight hummed happily to the tune of lyre played by everyone’s favorite bard. Amber quickly recognized it as the Favonius theme. Then it suddenly clicked. This wasn’t just some birthday idea. This routine is a ceremony!

Amber finally reached the top and gasped. Under the statue, Jean and Lisa stood proudly on each side behind Aether; all three clad in armor. Aether’s signature braid was replaced with a high ponytail and his Favonius sword gently piercing the ground. All the nuns, lead by Barbara, started to hum along with Venti’s lyre. Even Rosaria was at attendance. Amber felt her own heart start to flutter. A lump in her throat formed while she got a little misty eyed at Aether’s bright smile. Even his eyes expressed nothing but deep joy.

Amber:H-Hey…

Aether:Hey Amber. Happy Birthday.

Amber:Hehe, this uhhh this not a cake. *wipes eyes* what’s going on here?

Aether:From the start of my journey into Mondstadt, you have been by my side. Besides a certain floating guide, you were the first actual person to welcome me. You’ve been my companion, friend, teammate, my windblume…

Amber turned bright red as several people swooned and fawned instinctively. Her eyes were already watering again. She was not emotionally prepared for any of this!

Aether:You have been so many things to me. More than what I could’ve ever dreamed of and I’d like to continue to keep discovering all this land has to hold with you, but I want to do it right. I want to truly be your partner; your fellow Outrider. *kneels*

Amber:Y-You…Aether, that’s….

Jean:As you know, it’s customary for knights that lead any given branch to officially accept their new members personally.

Lisa:Though technically an Honorary Knight, Aether has officially requested to join the ranks of the Outriders. Which means only one person is fit to carry out such request, you.

The heat Amber felt in her face rose. She couldn’t remember the last time her heart raced this fast or throat ran dry. Amber knew this ceremony well. Growing up she’s seen it performed numerous times. She could still remember her own, the words of grandpa’s speech resonating till this day. Amber somehow managed to keep composure. She took a deep breath and walked forward to grab Aether’s sword.

Amber:To be an Outrider…is to be Mondstadt’s wings; to soar high and scout over all. Barbatos‘a winds grant us freedom not only to defend said freedom, but to let us know there is always more across the horizon. Distant but never out of reach; for the wind and sky connects us all. To be an Outrider is to fly. Honorary Knight, you wish to fly for Mondstadt and it’s people by my side?

Aether:In any weather over any land or sea, I’ll spread my wings and fly by your side.

Amber:*smiling*……Then let the wind lead.

Amber raised the sword high before gently tapping each side of shoulders. The sounds of joyful cheering and clapping erupted from knights and townspeople alike. Aether stood up a proudly and ran his thumb over the tears Amber couldn’t contain.

Aether:Outrider Aether, reporting for duty! Permission to kiss!

Amber:Granted!

He pulled her close and Amber didn’t waste any more time, pressing her lips against his while the crowd cheered even louder.

Venti:Woho! Way to go you two.

Barbara:*sniffling*

Rosaria:Are you crying?

Barbara:They’re just…so happy! Imagine if this was a wedding!!!? *crying*

Rosaria:Pull yourself together. *rubs nose*…. It’s just another ceremony.

Lisa:It’s funny. This doesn’t change anything actually, and yet it changes everything. I couldn’t think of a more perfect reason to where this stuffy thing.

Jean:I agree. Though I do feel rather nostalgic wearing it. *raises sword* Everyone! Let’s give another warm welcome to our new Outrider, and a Happy Birthday to its leader!

Paimon:*flying high* C…can…can Paimon stop spreading petals now please!?
