{i am unhinged tonight, yall... (my muse) aether thoughts on lumine...}

{mini sexc hc for today: with how much weight is on aether during his travels (i.e. basically being both teyvat's errand boy AND it's savior), letting someone else take the pressure off of him for even just a short while is so cathartic and nice.

its why he loves bottoming so much}

[aeviare]

{personal hc about aether's behavior at the end of act one. this really turned into a five page essay adsfasd also, i haven't played act 2 yet so if this is all confirmed anyway then please just ignore me lmaoooooo}

aether seeing lyney and lynette and severely missing lumine like a phantom limb. a pain that's so deep inset into his chest that no matter how many times he physically rubs at the spot, the pain just won't go away. it makes little to no sense to me aether turning his back to the twins when he's literally holding childe's vision in his inventory and renamed the freaking balladeer, okay.

like, baby boy, you have sussier friends other than two actual sweet beans that were adopted by a harbinger. zoom eyeing childe (a fucking harbinger who has tried to kill aether in the past) and wanderer (oh look another harbinger who has tried to kill aether in the past).

it is the only thing i can reasonably think of outside of hyv just saying 'ha ha fuck traveler's actual personality we've given them.' it just makes sense to me. and with lyney telling us that he fought tooth and nail to save lynette and to keep them off the streets. it sincerely is reminiscent of his relationship with lumine before they were parted.

my aether likes the twins. he loves the twins, even. if he didn't like them, then he wouldn't have continued to represent them after furina announced their ties to the fatui. perhaps he was blindsided by that information, but again. he is friends with sussier people.

i think for my muse, just looking at them too long reminds him of what he's missing. and what's he's searching for... and what he's lost. (and his worst fear being that he will never get it back, but this post is already long enough without me being unhinged again)

it isn't that he isn't sympathetic to their story or even that he cares all that much about their fatui ties. and after some thought, he realizes they didn't ask to be taken in by the fatui, and it shouldn't matter anyway.

because the twins have been nothing but kind to him and paimon. and besides omitting some of the truth of their past. he literally just met them! why would they tell him they're part of the sussy snez organization. they're new friends and technically still strangers.

it just makes more sense to me that he walks away because he's missing lumine and dealing with inner turmoil, rather than actually walking away because of their ties with the fatui.

again, please see, we are literally holding childe's vision (and hand probably) in our hands.

{me remembering i have a singing voice claim for aether. yes, it's shoto singing asdfsa i mean, i love zach. I WAITED 3 HOURS IN THE COLD TO MEET HIM. ofc i love him! i just think aether singing would be a little bit more like this. a little flat here, a little nasally there, but with heart and a genuineness you can't get anywhere else.}

𝐌𝐔𝐒𝐄 𝐅𝐀𝐕𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐒; 𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐅𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐒

𝐀𝐍𝐈𝐌𝐀𝐋: paimon hmmm, animals... he loves bunnies to be honest. but other than that, there aren't many that he's overly fond of. 𝐅𝐋𝐎𝐖𝐄𝐑: windwheel asters, of course. but there is a soft love for cecelias and qingxin flowers. he thinks they're both beautiful in their own way-- that soft white. also the added they smell really good 𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐓: fresh, savory food cooking over an open fire. the smell of the sea salt ocean. or when it's about to rain over the plains of liyue (not inazuma lmao) 𝐂𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐄: he is not much of a coffee drinker, or bitter things really. if he does drink coffee, it's going to have a lot of sugar in it 𝐓𝐄𝐀: he does like tea. he loves trying different teas from different regions. currently, he doesn't have a favorite one, but something akin to jasmine tea is normally his go to. 𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐊: sunsettia juice and dawn winery's grape juice, specifically. 𝐀𝐋𝐂𝐎𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐂 𝐁𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐆𝐄: he sometimes likes dandelion wine, but mostly aether doesn't drink alcohol 𝐅𝐎𝐎𝐃: chicken mushroom skewers-- quick and easy and they just tend to hit differently. sure, he loves cooking lots of different things, but there's just something about a good skewer. 𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐓: he really loves anything that's mid sweet. so nothing too, too sweet (like buttercream icing blech), but just sweet enough. 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐂𝐋𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆: crop tops, always lol even in the cold. he has to have a crop top (then he can wear a jacket over it to keep his tummy warm, but he's gotta look cute first) 𝐋𝐄𝐅𝐓 𝐎𝐑 𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐃: right handed 𝐒𝐋𝐎𝐏𝐏𝐘 𝐎𝐑 𝐍𝐄𝐀𝐓 𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆: probably somewhere in the middle. definitely not chicken scratch, but messily enough. probably because he rarely sits down to actually write anything and normally is in a rush 𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐍 𝐎𝐑 𝐌𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐘 𝐇𝐎𝐌𝐄: lived in. 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐖𝐄𝐑 𝐈𝐍 𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐑 𝐍𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓: night showers when he can, although he's not exactly picky 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐔𝐀𝐆𝐄: TOUCHING. aether is very tactile. brush of hands, placing a hand on someone's back, hooking arms, combing fingers through someone's hair. he just loves touching-- even though he only ever does it with people he's comfortable with. otherwise, he keeps them to himself 𝐁𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐄𝐕𝐄 𝐈𝐍 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐀𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓: no, but he definitely has attraction at first sight. whether that's aesthetic, physical, or sexual attraction really depends on the person

{headcanon, hsr verse. me thinking about aether losing his wings when he's torn from lumine. not knowing which aeon separated them, he's thinking it might be daddy nanook, but he doesn't know for sure since he could only remember bits and pieces of being literally wrenched from his twin. him having phantom limb syndrome in terms of where his wings were, trying to bring them in close to his back but can't. he has trouble walking at first cause now his center of gravity is all off. just. thinking about my hsr verse 🥺😭}

{the way to aether’s heart is honestly just touch him lmao. he’s so fuckin’ touch starved, for all the people he knows and all the friends he has. nobody ever just stops to give traveler a fucking hug. just touch him. doesn’t even have to be sexual or romantic in nature. 

a hand pressed to his lower back or waist, wrapping him in a hug, tugging him gently or guiding him somewhere. touch! him!}
