Flufftober day 11

Kaveh X Reader

Imagine an accidental meetup with Kaveh In the tavern while he’s drunk

A/N: Not proofread, God I haven't written in so long law school is hard but I do wanna write something for all my fav charas for October. Only fluff No Tw maybe like mention of booze?? but not really.

Kaveh who is once again shit drunk in the tavern. Something about a client and their unreasonable demands and lack of creative freedom he had for this job.

Kaveh who tried to order another drink, slurring barely even able to get the words out “One more Boss!”, his manuscripts and sketches strewn about all over the table, truly what a pathetic sight he must be right now!

Kaveh who is then told he can’t have any more his tab is already too high for tonight, but he doesn’t have any money left that damn Alhaitham took it all saying it was rent for this month. He hates that bastard always egging him on!!

Kaveh who suddenly hears someone say from behind him as he’s in his squabble with the tavern owner, “I’ll cover his tab for tonight.” He turns around expecting it to be Alhaitham or one of his other friends. “I’m really not in the mood for a lecture right now just cut me some slack, ok? I’ve had a tough day Just let me drink some more!”

Kaveh who then sees you instead standing there with a little smile on his face. He feels embarrassed, his face getting red “Uh I thought you we-re someone …else, I’m soh so-rry for lash-ing …out.” Oh god he’s still slurring his words how embarrassing. How could he let a you pay his tab god did he look so pathetic right now that even strangers were taking pity on him??

Kaveh who sees you had some money to the owner. Then turning around maybe because you read the expression he has on his face you say to him, (your voice sounds so sweet and nice?) “Hey, don’t worry about it ok? But if you want you can take me out for coffee someday in return?”

Kaveh who is dumbstruck he’s never had a girl hit on him like this before?? He is probably blushing even more now, and he can see a small smile forming on your face too, waiting for his reply.

Kaveh who then gets walked back (well walking was probably an overstatement he was tripping) to his house with your help, you both talking along the way, giggling. You told him how much you admired his designs, and it struck him how genuine and amazing you seemed. As you both reached his (fine Alhaitham’s) house, he thanks you for dropping him and honestly everything tonight. You both smile and say goodbyes and, and you turn starting to leave.

Kaveh who mustering up some courage, calls out to you, “Coffee sounds good, Tuesday 5pm it’s a date?”. You turn around your face a mixture of bewildered and flushed, holding back a giggle, “It’s a date then.”

Archons he was still slurring when he said that wasn’t he.

(As always criticism is appreciated (and I'm begging for it) I'm not the best at dialogues so I try to keep it short as possible, but any suggestions would be nice!!) Here's the prompt list I followed its from last year in case you wanna you it. Credit for it goes to the original maker.

The love of Venus and Anchises, from Longus' Daphnis and Chloe by Charles Ricketts (1893)

That one trend that goes always the poet never the muse with KAVEH

(not proofread, just fluff no warnings)

But for once he actually is the muse. He is what inspires the reader to create art, he can see himself in their work.

He would literally fall in love with you all over again, no has has truly ever made him feel this important, this loved.

I think deep down all artists crave to become someone's muse (I do).

Also youre 100% his muse. He would just have so many sketches of you, always gazing at you with those soft eyes. He can never seem to ever get enough of you. No matter how much he draws you, it will never be enough. You are his endless fountain of inspiration and he looks at you like youre his whole world.

Aah I love soft Kaveh imagines so much(I love this man)

Brainrot again

Guys I'm sorry I am trying to write for normal fics HSR but my brain turns off as long as its not about Welt , Sampo or Jing Yuan.

Like the brainrot I am having for these men is like insane. I need them to do unspeakable things to me especially Jing Yuan and Welt.

Jing Yuan oh god his calm demeanor, the confidence he carries himself with like he knows there is no one in the room stronger (cough larger cough) than him and he doesn't need to prove it . His relaxed cocky attitude but at the same time he is very calm and critical in his thinking oh god this man would break you without even loosing his composure I need him so bad. this man exudes that type of vibe that just makes you want to not even be a brat to him. He is a no nonsense guy but he will reward you if you behave.

Also the fact that his VA is literally Ono Daisuke like hello??? you expect me to resist him when he has the voice of Sebastian from BB????

Welt Yang with his like old wise man demeanor. Also the fact that he is the 2nd Herrscher of Reason, which basically means he is stronger than normal humans and probably has immense stamina oh god the contrast of his old man fatigued look and his godly powers is so hot. He just satisfies that part of my brain that is down bad for old looking men in glasses you who look like they have a overworked office job and then they come back home and the first thing they do is use you for stress relive ( cough Nanami cough).

Also bonus but welts jpn va is the same as Aren Kuboyasu from Saiki and I dont know if you guys know this he was literally my FAV anime crush like for 2 years I am so weak for this mans voice oh god. All these men have like my fav vas of all time it makes me even weaker for their characters.

Self-aware AU for Kaeya?

Note: Sorry this took time I had college stuff and I also wanted to complete Kaeya's hangout first? and I think that was the right move because it actually has a lot to do with fate and I think that inspired me a lot while writing this!!!!!

CW: nothing much?? a bit of yandere? minor spoilers for Kaeya's story. not proofread so might have spelling and grammar errors

As usual criticism and reblogs and highly appreciated ! please guys if you genuinely think some part can be a bit better i would love to know as i am trying to improve my writing!!

The day that kaeya realises that he was part of a video game, I think he would be very conflicted.

All his life he has tried to defy the ‘Fate’ of Teyvat and tried to overwrite his destiny and to suddenly discover that all his life is essentially planned from beginning to end for other people to ‘play’ and seek enjoyment?? Something about it infuriates him so much

But once he calms down and reorganizes his emotions, I think he would slowly start planning ways to break out of the prewritten story.

Subtly trying to get you to make certain choice in the story, trying to influence your actions.

If he cannot write his own destiny then he will make sure you will do so for him.

In his obsession to influence you I think he might slowly even start to get attached to you.

It feels wrong yes but slowly he realise you are essentially the only person in this ‘world’ who knows all about him, his conflicted family background, his relations with Khaenri'ah, the choice he would have to make, the sometimes questionable methods he uses to enact justice.

You and the only person who can see through his mask and maybe eventually when youre playing with just him he would slowly start letting his guard down.

However complicated the relation between you guys might be with him being trapped in a game and all, there is something so comforting about you knowing all parts of him and still loving his character or him being your favorite.

He doesn't want to admit it but kaeya actually do longs for genuine affection, especially after his father abandoned him, his adoptive father died and his falling out with diluc, the only person he was truly close to, you have one again ignited that warm feeling inside his chest.

Now depending on the scenario I can even see him becoming slightly obsessive, maybe if he sees you take his artifacts for some other character, or playing with someone else more.

Maybe he would try to force your game to choose him so that he gets to spend more time with you.

He might look for ways to reach you outside the game, after al he is slowly getting impatient having to wait everyday for you to log in. He thinks he he can become aware of you and of the game then there might be some way to escape the game reality??

He might also try to use your outsider knowledge of the games secrets to change the fate and basically use it to his advantage??

He might even add new voice lines in your game as if trying to talk to you, slowly changing his idles maybe even try to comfort you if you are sad. You would be confused at first, but Kaeya will not let you get away from him now.

You have given him a new purpose and advantage in his life and he will make sure you never leave him.

Self aware kaeya would both be angry at the predestined nature if the game and also grateful because now he can use it to his advantage to try to change the fate of Teyvat using knowledge from your archives. He is unsure about how to cope with the fact that he might be essentially just a fragment conjured by someone's imagination but at the same time meeting you was the best thing in his life and one day he will find a way to break out from the simulated reality of Teyvat and this game. After all Kaeya is nothing if not unrelenting and ambitious.

Also to the person who requested a Caelus fic I feel so dumb but I literally speedran the entire hsr story cause I wanted meet his character and I still couldn't find him so I waited for so long and then I finally gave up and looked him up so that I could get a idea about his personality. And um. Caelus is the name of the male mc. I just........ never realized that, so I wasted weeks speedrunning the story wow I feel dumb
