There is a fairly new stand in the city that sells boba tea... I've been meaning to go but have found myself quite busy.

Would you perhaps like to go there with me when you are free?

       Damn it all to Haishan's deathbed. As soon as she'd received word from her contacts in Liyue harbour, and a summons from the Tianquan herself mere hours after she'd stepped off the Alcor, a sinking feeling had settled in the pit of Beidou's stomach. A Liyue treasure galleon, bound to Natlan with mora ( something not exactly in plentiful supply as of late, given the fate of Morax ), sunk somewhere off the coast of Fontaine and now vanished. She knew who was to blame. She could likely reel off a whole list of names to Ningguang, given the sorts of... conversations she'd been privy to last time she'd been on Nassau. An island whose sovereignty had always been disputed, now home to rebellious freedom fighters who wanted to establish an independent state of their own. All they needed now was an Archon to rule over it, she supposed, and she knew exactly who'd jump at the chance of that glory.

       Beidou suspected he was behind this little stunt too, though, despite the Tianquan's question, it was far too early to be throwing names around. “ That's the problem, Ningguang. If the situation in Nassau is what I fear it to be, then it's not just one man or woman who is to blame. They're likely all working together. ” What she was about to suggest might elicit some trepidation in her companion — after all, Beidou knew these people, had sailed with them, drank and made merry with them. But her loyalty to Liyue came first. “ I can go, but it has to just be the Alcor. Too many ships from the fleet and it'll look like we're there to wage war. Let me go alone and talk to them. Maybe I can get them to relinquish the stolen mora without this becoming bigger than it needs to be. ”

beidou strap sucking ... begs at your feet like a hungry kitten - 🦁

dom!beidou x sub!fem reader

warnings: smut (minors/ageless blogs dni), wlw content, strap sucking, size kink

a/n: i'm on it fr 🗣🔥 sorry i like died. this is short but... i hope you enjoy 😓 hopefully there will be more stuff coming soon when i have time, but school started and i am busy again </3

"slow down, pretty girl." she laughs, threading her hand into your hair, and firmly tugging you back.

you whine at her, giving her your best pout and puppy-dog eye combination. "beidou, please? i've been so patient all day! wasn't i a good girl?"

beidou tuts, massaging your scalp while her other hand fists the faux cock at its base. "'course you have, but you don't need to be so eager."

she loves teasing you, giving you an inch only to pull you a foot away. "don't forget who's in charge." she reminds you sternly, instead petting your head now.

you love the feel of her rougher hands on your skin, covering so much of you given that size difference you adore so much.

soon enough, she yields, letting you kiss down the length of her pretty strap, slowly sliding it onto your waiting tongue. though she can't feel anything, she groans at how your eyes widen slightly, tears gathering when she hits the back of your throat.

her hand tightens in your hair as your throat tightens around her. "move, pretty girl." she urges. "that's it, fuck, you're so good at this, huh?" she listens to your little moans around her, desperately trying to please her.

you grow sloppier, spit trailing from your lips and coating her cock. she uses her thumb to wipe it up, cupping your chin while she fucks your throat. "good fucking girl." she grunts, holding your head steady as your eyes shut.

"gotta get it nice and wet for me-" she moans in between her panting and soft choking noises from you. "that's it-"

Hey! It’s 🍉ANON! Hope y’all missed me!

Anyways, I was wondering if I could request again! Of course, if I’ve already requested something, don’t mind this one! Just put it to the side..Or whatever

I would like to request a Yandere!SAGAU + Teen!Reader

Basically, since it’s a (Platonic) Yandere, I think they would basically all coddle {Reader}

Like since they’re a God and all, they’re dressed in fancy attire- but the clothes are always to big on them or they’re made in soft colors, so the characters coo over how ‘tiny’ and ‘cute’ {Reader} is

And if any of them are designers, they make them cut outfits like poofy dresses or little suits and force them to wear it

Like {Reader} is like, “I’m a teen! And a GOD! I refuse to wear this!” But they still end up wearing it lol

And maybe the characters fighting for their attention and time, maybe becoming a little too aggressive towards each other.. Maybe even threatening others to stay away from {Reader}..

Or! Or, if they talk about their family before they were transported, the characters engrave that into their brains basically and try to act like their them, or get upset that they mention that and say how they’re their ‘new family’

Anyways, I’ll make this short so I’ll end it here! Also, you as a writer truly inspire me every time you take my requests! Maybe one day I’ll be brave enough to post my ideas on my own online.. Thank you!

Sincerely, 🍉ANON

🍉ANON Thank you for the compliment, and I'm looking forward to the day you grce Tumblr with your writing!

Yes, Reader is coddled to high heaven. The archons have had unoffical custody court over you. With some math done by Neuvillette, each archon/ region gets equal time with you. You're a young human and young god, so everyone thinks you need protection from everything. There are different types of coddling that you experience, all based on the type of platonic yandere the character is.

______________________________________________________________

Mom Types: these platonic yanderes will now act like your new mom. They are strict, caring, and will make sure you become well rounded if it's the last thing they do. While there is variety in the parenting styles among these yanderes, there is still a common thread between them.

(Jean, Eula, Xianyun, Ningguang, Raiden Ei, Kujo Sara, Kokomi, Faruzan, Dehya, Arlecchino, Clorinde, Chiori, Chevreuse)

______________________________________________________________

Dad types: These types will be the best dad they can. They're protective over you, ready, willing, and able to fight anyone for you. They pull double duty as best friend, and guardian. They're strict when you need to be, but sometimes you can flutter your eyelashes to make them bend to your will. Agian, there are different parenting styles between each yandere.

(Neuvillette, Wriothesley, Alhathiam, Gorou, Kazuha, Baizhu, Zhongli, Albedo, Diluc)

______________________________________________________________

Uncle Types: These are the characters who are too irresponsible to be dads. They are the ones that help you cause small scale mayhem, while also making sure you have fun. They'll teach you street smart things, and are more lenient platonic yanderes

(Kaeya, Venti, Itto, Heizou, Cyno, Tighnari, Kaveh)

______________________________________________________________

Aunt Types: These are the characters who are the gender bend version of the uncle types, with a more caring side.

(Navia, Emile, Candace, Nilou, Nahida, Shinobu, Yae Miko, Beidou, Yelan, Shenhe, Yanfei, Ganyu, Keqing, Mona, Lisa, Rosaira)

______________________________________________________________

Cousin Types: These are the characters who are cousin like in the way you two interact. There is not a sibling bond, but there is a ride or die bond. This platonic yandere will keep you out of trouble for a price, while helping cause problems.

(Amber, Noelle, Fiscal, Mika, Xiangling, Xinyan, Hu Tao, Yun Jin, Sayu, Kirara, Dori, Wanderer, Layla, Charlotte)

______________________________________________________________

Big Brother Types: These platonic yanderes are your big brothers now, no, there is no arguing with them about this. They well care for you, being soft and kind is their thing. But, they will keep a tight leash on you if you even thing of doing anything dumb or they see a threat to you.

(Lyney, Fremient, Sethos, Ayato, Thoma, Gaming, Xiao, Xingqiu, Chongyun, Childe, Razor, Bennett)

______________________________________________________________

Sibling Types: These platonic yanderes are like the big brother yanderes. Kind, soft, and willing to protect your and your innocence. When it comes to spending time with them, there is mire dress up than you'd probably like.

(Klee, Diana, Barbara, Qiqi, Yaoyao, Ayaka, Yoimiya, Collei, Lynette, Furina, Sigewinne)

______________________________________________________________

The mom and dad types dress you in fancy clothes, finding it cute how big they are on you. Whenever you try and argue about wearing the fancy clothes, the mom and dad types use their authority voices, the aunt and uncle types use bribery, and the sibling and cousin types uses a mix of puppy dog eyes and bribery.

They is a lot of rivalry. Different sets of sibling are at each other's throats, the cousin and sibling types are usually at odds. Some mom and dad types bicker while the aunt and uncle types compete with each other and the mom and dad types. It's a mess you're always caught up in, and it's is never fun.

If you mention anything good about your family back home, the respective type of platonic yandere will try and copy that behavior. If you mention anything bad, they'll avoid that behavior like the plague

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ anon request: Could I request Lyney, Freminet, Kazuha, and Heizou with a reader who makes plushies?

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Of course! AAAA ALL OF THEM ARE MY FAV BOYS LET'S GO!! Anyway~ I had a bit of fun with it so hope you like it!

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ fluff

✧ Kazuha finds what you're doing pretty adorable

✧ he loved how you can make something so fun with just few materials and threads

✧ and if you ever happen to lack idea for new plushie... he'll be happy to tell you few stories, real or not

✧ if you actually make a plushie based on his stories, he'll melt on spot and you'd be able to see genuine smile on his face

✧ he's always on ship so if you're not part of th Crux, he'll sleep burried in your plushies when he's away (you heard stories from Beidou about that~)

✧ and if you give him one of your plushies? Oh he's not leaving your side today! In fact, he's ready to pamper your face in kisses so get ready for that once you get somewhere private!

✧ surprisingly, he recognizes all materials just by touching them! He says it's just a lucky guess but how can someone lucky guess something 30 times in a row?!!

"Those are high quality materials... You didn't had to spend so much on me... Let me treat you to a dinner for that at least."

��� same goes for style of sewing, he'll somehow notice details like that and if he notices difficult style, you can be sure he'll compliment you for that

﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌

@bleachtheidiot - come get your poetic samurai~

✧ Heizou somehow notices any time you have or lack any idea

✧ if you have one, he'll make it a fun game for himself to get to know what is it without asking you about it directly

✧ but if you lack it, he'll randomly drop small story or two untill it catches your attention, tho if you look closely, there's small smirk on his face

✧ similiar to boy alone, he also guesses materials quite quickly tho it's more of an experience rather than lucky guess

✧ it's actually useful to be able to tell difference between materials, so he most likely knows at least the basics

✧ but one thing he loves doing is teasing you when you desperately try to hide you're planning a toy for him but you still want to make sure he'll like it

"Hei! What do you think of this? Soft enough?"

"Hm... I would guess so, yes. But why are you asking me that instead of person who'll receive it?"

"I d- They just deserve it!"

"Mhm~ Whatever you say, dear."

﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌

@bleachtheidiot - come get your flirty detective~

✧ Lyney can't help but smile every time you present him with new idea, prototype or plushie

✧ he thinks this job suits you and is often amazed when you start rambling about different types of materials and the difference between each of them

✧ whenever you present a plushie and asks for opinion, he'll take his time to show he takes you seriously and check plushie from every side, squeeze it, hug it... and then he tells you what he thinks in details!

✧ but he likes to be playful sometimes, he'll take the plushie, inspect it and then pull disappearing and reapearing trick off leaving him chuckling and hopefully you too

"For me?! Oh mon cherie... I absolutely love it! It's the perfect color... and it's so soft too~ Mwah! Hehe, why won't I repeat it on creator now~?"

✧ prepare yourself mentally to see this plushie on his performances and for Lynette to tell you the cutest gossips about him and his new plushie

✧ and if you give him a plushie that you designed specifically for him? Well... you know how clingy he usually is? Multiply it by 10

✧ he'll spoil you with not singular rainbow rose but biggest bouquet of them he could find, takes you to a fancy restaurant and of course, hold your hand and hugs you all day long

﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌

@bleachtheidiot - come get your charming magician~

✧ Freminet is actually happy both of you have something in common, I mean... you both like to create?

✧ the only difference in what you do is that he creates out of metal and you create our of softer materials

✧ if you have a penguin plushie that you often carry with you, there's no wonder even Pers was interested! Who knows? Maybe little robot feel in love like the creator~?

"I love it, it's cute~ Heh, and Pers loves it too I guess... You really did a great job with that plushie."

✧ he knows how it is to struggle from lack of ideas or to need someone to check your sketch, so he'll be more than happy to do that if you ask him

✧ when it comes to materials... he's not the worst but he will get similar ones mistaken usually

✧ first time you made a plushie for him, he felt like he didn't deserve it and needed to repay you as soon as possible

✧ but with time, he learned to just accept it and repay you when the ocassion happens. Maybe he'll just pay for dinner? Or you'll see some robot in the movie and he makes it for you?

pearl jewelry.

₊˚ ᗢ mermaid! kazuha x gn!reader.

⤷ when his attempts at a marriage proposal flies over your head.

⤷notes; based on this thread.

Mermaid! Kazuha, who thinks that it’s been more than enough time to pop the question for you. 

He has consulted his other friends about the process. This was his first marriage proposal, and he certainly wasn’t going to want something similar to everyone else. Yoimiya suggests that he offer you a pearl necklace, so that you may never lose it. He pouts at the idea, saying that it was tradition for humans to give each other rings and that perhaps you would want a more normal proposal. The bubble quickly popped when Gorou clarifies the notion by saying: “If they wore a ring, what if they go off to fight? What if they lose it? It’s better to give them a necklace so it stays on longer!” 

And so he makes it his absolute mission to get you the best of the best. He searches the bottom of the sea for weeks while you were traveling Mondstadt. He even made sure that it was approved by Kokomi to have the roundest shape. He wasn’t going to give you just any pearl! It would be an insult to his culture if he were to give you something so half-baked. 

It’s been nearly a year since the two of you met. And your routine hasn’t changed much for the most part. You still come to the shores to see your favorite platinum-haired boy, and he would come back to you with the same smiling face you’ve grown to adore. Although you’ve long traveled the seas, visiting places like Liyue and Sumeru, you end up coming back to visit Watatsumi Island to see him. No matter how far you may be, or how dry the lands are, his memory remains fresh like salt water.

You’ve been teased on many occasions by Beidou. She comments that you’ve been staring off into the sea a lot more than usual, perhaps too much with that lovesick look in your eyes. You try to brush it off by saying you were merely friends, tied and bound together by your love for travel. Though she begs to differ. That expression was much like her own, and she too has been infatuated by the strange, mystical creature of the sea. At last, she leaves you alone when you wish to depart the Alcor. 

Stepping onto Watatsumi Island, you make your way to your favorite spot. Tucked in hand was another book that you bought from a bookstore in Mondstadt. It was about the history of grilled fish, and you thought Kazuha might like it. It was rather simple, but you figured that he might appreciate it a little more if it was something that reminded you of him. He was sort of one big fish after all. One that liked to jump into your arms more often than not, leading to the two of you being covered in sand.

To your surprise, Kazuha was sitting on a rock, already waiting for your arrival. He fiddled with something in his hands, his face looking quite nervous and shy. You smiled as you approached the man, sitting down next to him as you stared off into the horizon. You both share a conversation about your recent travels and how beautiful the nation of Mondstadt was, from their windmills to the sound of birds singing, it was nothing short of lovely. Though you would let slip that instead of listening to the drunken bard at Angel’s Share, you loved to listen to Kazuha’s singing.

At this comment, he blushed profusely. He shakes his head in denial but you know him too well to see that he was rather flattered. Finally gaining enough courage to show you what was hidden in his hand for the longest time. He opens a clam, revealing to you a neatly tied pearl on strings. It shined underneath the sun and you found yourself rather captivated. Smiling, you allowed him to wrap it around your neck, the pearl settling neatly on your collarbone. Pressing your fingers against it, you feel those same butterflies jitter in your stomach.

“This is the nicest gift you’ve given me so far,” You giggle, bringing your knees close to your chest, “What’s the occasion?” 

“It’s a lot more than that,” He whispers, leaning his head against your shoulder as he lets out a deep breath. 

He’s been planning this moment for months and everything seemed to go by so quickly. You accepted it so easily that it made him wonder if you even knew the implications behind this gift. While he has given you more pearls in the past, there was nothing more special than how perfect this specific one was. It takes a lot of dedication and time. You would only give something like this to someone you wish to marry, so for you to accept it so easily… 

He snaps his head up at you, looking at you with a confused expression. 

“Kazuha?” 

“Do you… know what this means?” 

You raise your eyebrow. Were you missing something? The gift was lovely, especially when he offered it to you in such a romantic way. It sort of makes your gift for him a lot more lame. You blink several times, unsure of what to say at the moment. So silence fills the air.

 It takes a few moments for everything to click in your head. This necklace must be extremely special. Was it something regarding mermaid culture? You were certainly unfamiliar with the ways of life for him, and the only time you’ve learned much was from Beidou. "That woman I was talking to you about," She started, looking out at the grand ocean, "She used to gift me a lot of pearl necklaces. I didn't understand the sentiment until she told me that it was her way of asking me to be hers," The captain grinned, "Do you think Kazuha would give you something like that?"

Was it a proposal? You stare back at him with a surprised look. He suddenly raises his hand, covering the lower half of his face with his webbed fingers. His cheeks are as bright as apples, and his ears were red. He was embarrassed that he had to spell it out for you in your human language.

“Do you think I’d give something like this to just anyone?” He murmurs, shyly peeking at your eyes. You tighten your hold on the book in your hands, your breath hitching at the sight.

“You wound me, Starling. This is… our equivalent of marriage. So please treat my heart kindly.”

trying out a new format for writing small ideas that sort of feel like fics but aren't super long! i just had to write this one and post it because it's gonna be stuck in my mind if i dont!!

thanks to @maehemthemisfit for the idea ♡♡

Lost in Inazuma 10

Characters: Ayato, Thoma, Gorou, Kazuha

Genre: Sagau

TW:Blood, implied torture, sexual implications (like one sentance)

2.1k words (these keep getting longer)

AN: I’m back baby! Just started college and I feel like I’m in a rom com. My life is a joke, but an entertaining one this time. Working on another longer Childe fic. Shout out to Orah-s, I love you so much. Mwah.

“Thoma, it’s fine.” You laughed as he fussed over your outfit, layers of beautiful silk that Ayato had coaxed you into. Gold thread wove throughout the fabric in a beautiful pattern. You had tried to reject it, but he didn’t let you. This was a diplomatic meeting, he argued. You should present yourself in the best light. It remained unsaid that you only had one chance to prove your divinity, something you didn’t even fully believe. No matter how much you laughed or joked, the weight of it suffocated the room. 

You had chosen people who weren’t loyal to the shogun, those who had fought her tyranny before. Beidou, Kazuha, Kokomi, Gorou. People who would believe you. People who could keep secrets. You took a deep breath.

“Goldie, are you alright?” Thoma brushed your hair out of your face.

You nodded. “I’ll be fine.” You thought for a moment before leaning into him.

“Goldie! What are you…” His arms were held out awkwardly, he seemed scared to touch you.

You sat up, a bit embarrassed. “Sorry.”

“Don’t be.” He tugged you back to him, his hand feather-light on your shoulder. It was barely enough to pull you off balance, something you could easily resist if you wanted to. You didn’t. You fell back into his warm chest. His heart beat quickly next to your ear; he must be nervous too. His hand drifted down to rest on your back. The weight was comforting. His scent tickled your nose, cinnamon and tea.

“You smell nice.” You mumbled absent-mindedly.

“Huh?” 

You looked up to see his wide eyes. “What?” 

“Nothing…” His face was red as he looked away. “It’s just… nothing.”

“Alright then.” You laughed before sitting up and fixing your hair. 

There was a knock on the door. You shot up and looked towards the sound, even though a screen blocked the view. You could hear Ayato’s footsteps as he walked toward the door to open it.

“Welcome.”

A woman’s voice greeted him, deep and rough. Beidou. “Commissioner! Kazuha here was excited for the meeting so we arrived a bit early. Hope it doesn’t throw off the schedule.”

“Any particular reason?” Ayato asked. There was a slight edge to his words,

Kazuha spoke softly, a smile in his voice. “The wind told me there was a visitor at the estate. I was looking forward to meeting them.”

Silence, while Thoma scrambled to arrange your hair and clothes. He was quiet, but you were sure that Kazuha could hear.

Another knock at the door.

“Greetings, commissioner. This discussion seemed important, so we arrived early.” The sweet voice must have belonged to Kokomi.

“So everyone is here already.” Ayato paused. “I’ll consult the other participant.” He walked around the screen and leaned down to your ear. “Are you alright with starting early?” He asked. His hand reached out to adjust your mask but he decided against it.

You nodded. “Might as well get it over with.” 

Ayato offered you his arm and you accepted. You walked out from behind the screen. The guests’ faces turned to look at you. 

You bowed deeply. “Thank you for your attendance.” 

Your movement seemed to make Ayato uncomfortable. “No need to bow, Goldie.” He placed a hand on your back. “Please.” 

Beidou smirked. “Awfully kind of you. Is this your fiance, Commissioner?” She laughed loudly. “But he’s right. There’s no need to be so formal.”

Ayato stiffened next to you. You waited a few seconds but he didn’t seem to have a response.

You held back a laugh, surprised he was caught off guard. “No, captain. Our relationship is purely business.” 

Kazuha smiled as he looked between the two of you. “This is the first time I’ve seen you at a loss for words, Kamisato.”

He coughed. “Let’s focus on the purpose of the meeting.” He gestured at the tea table at the center of the room. “Make yourselves comfortable.” 

With a rustle of fabric everyone was seated. You looked around. Kazuha sat to your left and Gorou sat at your right. You and Ayato were at either end of the table. The two women sat next to their subordinates.

Gorou looked at you suspiciously. “Why do you feel the need to hide your face?”

“That’s no way to talk to them.” Kokomi chastised him before speaking to you. “I apologize. He’s a general, not a politician. I must admit, I am also a bit curious.”

“No need.” You waved off her apology. “It’s a reasonable question. I am hiding from the tenryou commission.”

Kazuha looked concerned. “Why?”

“My face.” You reached behind your head to untie the string of your mask. It fell softly into your lap. “They call me an imposter.” You felt naked with your face uncovered.

Kazuha was the first to speak. “The wind whispers about you. It is a pleasure to finally meet you.” He bowed and pressed his lips to your hand. “I am at your service.” 

You felt your face flush. “No-no need to go that far!” You glanced at the others at the table. Kokomi was deep in thought while Gorou stared at you. You felt your heartbeat quicken. “I can prove I’m not lying!”

“How?” His voice came out too fast, too harsh. Disbelieving.

You reached under your collar. There was a flash of metal. A knife. Ayato jumped to his feet. He was too far, all the way at the other end of the table. The metal glinted. Your hand shook as you brought it to your forearm. A hand grabbed yours and the knife fell. You looked up and saw Gorou. 

His eyes were wide with shock. “What are you doing?!” 

“Showing you proof!” Your voice shook. 

“I don’t need any.” 

You just stared at him. “But- if you think I’m lying…”

“It doesn’t matter whether you are the creator or not. Watatsumi Island doesn’t punish those that look like the creator.” Kokomi explained. “We view it as a blessing.”

Beidou sighed. “Most places are like that, apart from a few extreme sects. Inazuma’s archon just happens to follow one of them.” 

You nodded. “So you won’t hurt me?” You hated how shaky your voice was. You hated how tears threatened to fall. Now was not the time for weakness.

Kazuha reached for your other hand and gently uncurled your fingers. You hadn't even realized that you had squeezed it into a fist. “Of course not. It is my duty to protect you.” 

“Your duty?” 

“I truly believe you are my god.”

“Why?” You asked. Kuki recognized that you looked like the statues, but that didn’t convince you. You had read the records. You were far from the first person to have this face. Your blood was enough proof for the Kamisatos’. Not that you understood why. You could think of several reasons for the color. 

“The wind whispers about you.” He held your hand in both of his. “It sings your praises.”

“What does it say?” The words slipped out before you could stop them.

"It tells of soothing teas and healing touches." He paused, “It sings of golden blood and purple scars." He tapped your bandages. "May I?"

You nodded and he carefully started to unwrap the fabric. It fell away from your arm, revealing angry purple scars that branched around your arm. He uncovered his own hand and placed it next to yours. "Electro is a particularly volatile element." He looked up. “I know what it’s like to be burned. I know what it’s like to be a criminal through no fault of your own. Please, trust me.”

“Promise.” You knew how childish the request was, but you couldn’t help yourself. You needed that reassurance. “Promise that you won’t hurt me.”

“I swear on my life.” He said, a hand over his heart.

You nodded slowly, accepting his words. You were so tired, spent from all the stress. Ayato and Kokomi lead the strategizing, while Beidou butted in every one in a while to offer advice. You stayed silent. You didn’t have the energy to participate fully. Absent-mindedly you started to stoke the blanket next to you. Maybe it was a rug. It was soft. You fought the urge to doze off. 

“Gorou, you haven’t spoken in a while.” Kokomi noted. It was true, he had stayed silent for an uncharacteristically long time. 

He sat straight as a pin, his eyes fixed on the table. “I-I guess so.” 

“Are you nervous?” You asked, too tired to watch your words. “You look nervous.”

“Well..” He coughed. “You are petting my tail right now.”

Your eyes widened as you looked down at the softness by your hand. He was right. Your hand was on his tail. You quickly snatched it away as you felt heat rush to your cheeks. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. I swear, I thought it was a blanket or something.”

He blushed. "No, it's fine."

"I thought you didn't like when people touched your tail."

"Well no… I mean usually but… this is a different situation." He said as confidently as he could.

You nodded pretending to understand. "Can I pet your ears then? They look soft." He was silent a moment too long and you opened your mouth to try to take back your words.

"Yes." He didn't look at you. He just leaned towards you slightly. You reached out and gingerly stroked his ear. 

"...soft." You mumbled under your breath. You had forgotten how sensitive his ears were. He must have heard you as his cheeks started to turn pink. You heard a giggle to your right. Kazuha had heard as well. 

The conversation continued. Kokomi put a hand to her chin. "Gorou and I could take you back to Watatsumi island. The shrine maidens would be honored to take care of you."

You shook your head. "That would risk war. Your island is already in a precarious situation I-" You paused, fiddling with the sleeve of your kimono. "I couldn't put your people through that again. It would be-"

A cup of tea fell to the floor with a clatter as Gorou jumped to his feet, one hand on his bow the other reaching to his quiver. "Someone is outside."

The fear was back with a vengeance. Your heart beat at your ribs, desperate to escape. You felt a hand on your shoulder. Kazuha. You could feel his breath on your ear. "I will stay by your side, your holiness." A light breeze brushed your face. You nodded, shuffling closer. 

You looked over to Ayato. His face was a mask as he directed Gorou and Beidou to follow him. You shivered at his coldness. It wasn't out of character, but you had gotten used to the awkward kindness he showed you. To see him like this was - unsettling. 

  They slipped out of the room. For a few seconds, there was complete silence. Silence that allowed your mind to run. It was interrupted by a loud thud and a scream. It was quickly cut off. There were four sets of footsteps when they came back. 

Ayato dragged in a woman. Her nose was bleeding and her uniform was ripped but you recognized her. Chiyo. Ayato shoved her to the ground. There was something unsettling about the way he stood there. Silent, like still water, an ocean with no wind. 

 You didn't bother to put on your mask. She had seen anything there was to see. It only took a few steps to reach her, but the whole time your body was screaming at you to do something. To hit her, to run, anything. You resisted the urge and crouched down to her level. There was a hatred in her eyes you couldn't understand, so deep it threatened to drag you under as well. "Why were you watching us?" You asked, surprised by the strength in your voice.

"How dare you." She growled. "You come here with no qualifications, no references, nothing, and you get a job here. You do nothing all day and you still get treated like royalty. The Lord treats you like you hung the stars in the sky." She spit at you. 

"There are circumstances you don't understand." I argued.

She leaned in, and smiled. A smile so full of hatred it sickened you. "You have the face of a god. Lord Kamisato must like it."

"Like what?" 

You could feel her breath on your face as she got even closer. "He must love having someone like you in his bed."

You startled and pulled away, the heat rushing to your cheeks. You weren't sure how to respond. You glanced at Ayato.

His jaw clenched and he grabbed the woman by her collar. "Do not speak of them that way."  He looked up at you. "I will bring her to the interrogation room. Will you be alright without me?"

You nodded.

Ayato left with the woman and you were alone with the guests. You felt someone tug at your hand. You turned to see Kazuha.

"You should rest."

I laughed. “And how would I do that?”

He pulled his scarf from his neck and folded it before placing it in his lap. He gestured at the make-shift pillow. “Rest your head.”

Beidou laughed behind you. “What a gentleman!”

Kazuha smiled politely at the comment. “Only if you are comfortable, of course.”

You nodded before lowering your head onto the pillow.

By the time Ayato returned you had fallen asleep. He was grateful for it. You had not slept well before the meeting and you needed your rest. There was a second, more selfish reason. He hadn’t fully gotten the blood out from under his fingernail. He couldn’t stand to show himself like that in front of you. So impure.

perfect pair you ought to know that i think we're one and the same / i don't think we could help it, no, i don't think we could help it / we don't talk much, guess 'cause nothing has changed /. . . / if i told you, you'd know how to go and break my heart in two / 'cause I would anyways, we'd end up like always

relationships aren't perfect but when you two were young and dumb and stupidly in love, preaching that your relationship will forever exist upon eons and eons. seeing how it's starting to meet the end of it scares you, all those promises unraveling showing the loose threads that shouldve and couldve shown you the ending. but it didn't. but the both of you are a reflection of each other, a twin flame even. even if the trials become errors, you two were bound to fall into each other's arms, embracing the sparks between you two only to fall out, the relationship burnt to a crisp.

she plays bass hey, won't you call me back? 'cause I've been waiting for a text back / this hurts my brain / she plays bass, she plays bass / nothing matters 'cause we're both in space /how i wish we could just date

this was just friends nothing more. of course, friends hold hands but do they brush their finger over your knuckles? of course, friends assure each other but do they whisper it into your ear? after asking countless friends and the result being the same every time, you realized that the friendship you developed with her was blurred the lines and it was hard to tell if she liked you too or was it all a dream?

dance with me if you wanna dance then / dance with me/ it's pretty fast but this is what you do at parties, right? / and i know it's hard to tell / but i think i really like you

it was weird to hang out with her, not only because you two stand at different points of social status, but because you don't understand how this ordeal or at least partying looks. but the way she smiled and gleamed made you believe that you totally asked in a good, cool way despite being awkward at it. she took your hand into hers and let you hang by her side as she danced to the tunes, slowly you mimicked her actions too.

straight to the point, beidou or ningguang sitting on GN reader's face and reader can barely breathe... HEAR ME OUT THO and maybe reader can't even satisfy them properly so they go rougher. 😭😭 omg

Hello anon,

This. Excellent ask. Once again, please ignore the short/sloppy writing. I'm trying to finish my inbox.

---

"Tsk, tsk, time for you to focus on something more important," with those words Ningguang slides her dress to the side, those pointed nail guards catching onto the thin fabric of her panties to move them further until plump lips greet you. Your eyes are wide open at the sight of Ninnguangs bare cunt, wet folds spread open and dripping. You're not a prude, you've had sex before, but not like this. Not with someone like her.

You don't even get a chance to protest, that you've never done this before, before Ningguang cuts your words off and seats her pussy on your mouth. Caught off guard, you take a sudden inhale and her musky scent fills your senses, slowly turning you drunk. The first thought that filters through your rapidly stupid mind is that she's soft, really soft. Her thighs bracket your cheeks, squishing them together as the silk dress drapes over your eyes. It's warm, soft, and dark. Maybe if you ask nicely you could stay here forever.

Your shy tongue peeks out, just a little swipe to taste what's been pressed against your mouth and that's all it takes. You press your tongue flat against her wet folds, spreading them apart as you lick from her hole up to her clit. Sucking on the small nub as you clench your own thighs. It's a bit clumsy, a bit messy, but you hope your enthusiasm shines through. Ningguang grabs handfuls of your hair to ground herself, letting out a soft sigh as she gently rocks against your tongue.

"Ah…so eager," she moans quietly and it sends little flutters in your heart that you managed to make that sound come from her. Although your joy is short lived when your hair is suddenly yanked up and you're completely smothered against her cunt. Your nose bumps against her clit as your head is forcefully moved back and forth. You know Ningguang is deceptively physically strong, but the pain of having your hair tugged at leaves a few tears to gather at the edges of your eyes. Your hands come up to slap at her waist, a mercy to let you breathe or you might actually suffocate under her. Not the worst to go but definitely the most embarrassing. But she snaps her fingers and geo constructs form around your wrists, pinning them down. A moment of consideration and another geo construct, much smoother and brittle this time, forms around your neck, pinning your head in place. The soft thighs that cage your head momentarily lift, your world filled once again with light as you blearily look up at Ningguang. Whatever your face looks like, she seems pleased even with your disappointing few minutes. She pets your cheek, sticky threads of her slick clinging to her fingers as she mimics taking a deep breath.

"Take a deep breath now dear, it would be unfortunate to replace you so soon."

obey me characters and their visions

Or what I think are their visions idk it’s 3 am and I just found out I failed my pathology exam so here’s a crossover of two games that provides me an escape from this putrid reality 😁

also just trying to get rid of drafts rn

Tags: sfw, pure crack speculation, I’m going insane, obey me demon brothers and undateables and luke, genshin impact visions, everything here is MY OPINION and should not be taken seriously, feel free to disagree with me

Lucifer

-He strikes me as the type to either have a hydro vision or a geo vision

-more leaning towards hydro

-hydro vision holders tend to be dedicated to their work and uphold their own view of justice, more often than not being protectors of some sort i.e Candace and Aaru village, Ayato with the Kamisato Clan

-I draw parallels between him and Ayato because they both have gone through hell and back for their families (often literally) and have had to salvage tarnished reputations in order to protect said family

-also very rich and elegant men who have a “dark side” that most aren’t aware of

-It’s also just every hydro character being really sophisticated and elegant tbh he fits the vibe I think (minus Childe but he has his moments)

-Geo because, well… look at him. He’s prime geo vision material. Like a rock solid wall holding up the HOL but like he’s also hanging by a thread lol.

Mammon

-Geo Vision, Hear me out on this.

-Not only does it suit his color palette, but if you think about it, Mammon places a lot of responsibility on himself to be a good older brother to his siblings (despite falling short most times), we see this especially during Nightbringer

-Geo’s thing is literally responsibility. Every geo user has some sort of responsibility that they themselves have chosen to undertake, whether or not they can handle it

-They’re all also quite stubborn. Once they’re dead set on something they will never let it go, and on top of that they also protect either someone or something

-Every geo user has a goal relating to something to do with material or status: Ningguang and the Tianqiu, Noelle wanting to be in the KOF, Zhongli wanting to retire (lmfao). Mammon wanting to be rich (and wanting him and his brothers to be at the top of the Devildom in Nightbringer) literally fits.

-Mammon, despite being a goofy character, fits into geo so perfectly it’s actually insane.

-Mammon and Itto are the same person. I’m not elaborating.

Levi

-Electro vision all the way.

-It’s no surprise. Canonically he’s seen as a weirdo, even by his brothers (not me tho I love my men a little pathetic) and he doesn’t spend much time mingling with others, so of course he’s gonna be singled out

-almost every single electro vision holder is outcasted by at least one society; Beidou being cast out of her village, Fischl being thought of as eccentric because of her personality, the literal electro archon becoming a shut-in

-He would absolutely get the vision probably in like the early part of Nightbringer when we got stuck in the TSL universe and he had to make a decision

-(if you’re wondering why I keep bringing up Nightbringer it’s bc it’s the one I’m currently playing ok)

-Levi also passes the “I have a scary animal that helps me fight” thing. Henry’s quite formidable when he’s back to normal size :)

Satan

-Hm, thinking about it and at first I’d say dendro is the obvious answer but there’s also quite a few other contenders actually.

-Pyro is one of them, and when drawing parallels Diluc comes to mind (obvs grumpy men stick together always.) As the avatar of wrath, he’s like mad 80% of the time and I can imagine him raining hellfire upon everything (and he has, best believe).

-But also he’d fit the “passionate” description, he’s so passionate about books and magic that he’d literally kill for a book that he wanted (and did I’m pretty sure). He’d also be considered passionate for hating Lucifer so much I think

-he also has quite the past to fit with a pyro user, especially during Nightbringer when he’s still coming into terms about being basically a baby demon and learning to confront his brothers and finally accept them

-Dendro is quite obvious for him. He craves knowledge from books, and I’m sure if he were in Teyvat he’d find his way in the Akademiya just to get into the House of Daena’s restricted section

-I think either or could be his vision, depends on which Satan you’re talking about (Nightbringer Satan and main timeline Satan are two vastly different individuals)

-if you really wanna get into it tho, cryo/electro's pretty... fitting. Especially for nightbringer Satan. Even if his brothers try not to make him feel like it, he will always be different from them; the fact that he basically was made to replace Lillith in a sense, and he distances himself away from them because he just doesn't fit in.

-all in all he's so versatile realistically he could have like 4/7 visions since his character is so dynamic between the two games

Asmodeus

-Now this was harder to come up with, but after giving it some thought I think he’d have an Anemo vision

-think of it this way. In Nightbringer take a shot everytime I bring that game up his whole arc in the beginning was learning to let go of the celestial realm and accepting the fact that he was a demon now, effectively granting himself the freedom to love himself once more

-Anemo is the element of freedom right? He fought himself and his inner demons for freedom like that, which happens to a lot of those who are granted this vision (Wanderer and Xiao moment)

-Thats really all I have for him. Tbh, the only other vision I could see him wielding his pyro, but I couldn’t think of anything else I can say that hasn’t already been said

-another short anemo king go figure (he and heizou would get along I think)

Beelzebub

-another one I had to really think of, but upon further deliberation with myself I'm thinking pyro again (the default vision lmfao)

-Yes. Passion for food, he'd get along with Xiangling quite well (too well, imagine her in the devildom holy shit)

-Also pretty passionate about working out and protecting his brothers, so there's that lol

-I am stumped on him bc he's like lowkey just there bro like

-how would he even get his vision idk man

-but imo pyro is the default vision so he gets it (feel free to disagree with me)

Belphegor

-If you think this guy does not have an anemo vision you are wrong

-like dead mf wrong he is anemo all the goddamn way

-he lost his sister and still blames himself for it, but he also wants to be free with his brothers in the devildom

-the other vision i would give him is electro because he does tend to like, shut himself off or whatever so there's that

-but he's 100% anemo I don't make the rules sorry

-first tall male anemo user?? (surprisingly he's 5'10 guys it's probably all that sleep he does lmfao)

Diavolo

-hmmmm, such a hard decision I wonder what vision I would give to the literal prince of hell- pyro.

-jk jk let me explain

-Pyro, because as I've stated before, it is both the default vision imo and also the vision for those who are passionate IMO (I cannot stress this enough)

-Diavolo is very passionate about RAD, and the whole "demons getting along with other species" concept is something he has been working very hard on (man is trying to end specieism in the obey me verse)

-on top of his outgoing and friendly personality, pyro really does fit him like a glove. I could make an argument for geo because he shoulders a fuck ton of responsibility for the devildom (esp in nightbringer) but like

-he is warm and friendly and strong, perfect pyro material

Barbatos

-I needed to think about this one for a bit, but after further deliberation with the screams that echo in my head, I am confident in saying that this man has an anemo vision

-if he were in the genshin universe he'd def be one of the shady people from celestia (bro is literally istaroth but i digress)

-as much as anemo fits him aesthetically, I also want to point out that he just... gives people freedom? Like the first half of nightbringer was him finally fulfilling someone's wish to go to heaven to see their lover

-he also just parallels a lot with venti, idk i just see him being very fitting with an anemo vision

-like, he's immortal yet does not look it (Scara, Xiao, Venti), downplays his power to appear "normal" in a sense that he won't be an immediate threat to those perceiving him (Venti), saw a pyro kid and decided to adopt them and begrudgingly take care of them no matter how annoying they are (Xiao and Hu Tao though I may be reaching)

Luke

-bro does not have a vision yet (jk its cryo)

-I feel like he'd be given a hydro vision solely for the fact that he is changing his, quite frankly specie-ist, ways lol (like eula hello?)

-he is quite shy when mc first met him, the only reason why he didn't immediately get mad at them is because they weren't a demon and that's saying something

-he tends to be very guarded around said demons, often becoming aggressive when interacting with them but he's warming up. It's like a wall of ice slowly melting through the mc and simeon's guidance

-he also reminds me of mika for some reason

Solomon

-he has an electro vision and yes, it's exactly the same situation as Lisa

-though he doesn't need one (none of them do tbh), I feel like he wanted one just for shits and giggles like I definitely see him being a descender on Teyvat

-he's literally the most powerful human in the obey me verse, of course he's going to be viewed differently from others even though he "tries" to not be too overt about it (very, very big emphasis on tries. I think he only does it for mc atp)

-I feel like he'd get along well with the electro ladies as well, particularly Miko and Lisa (Gorou and Luke need to hide like asap)

-in all seriousness though, he just fits into electro so well given all the character traits present in electro wielders

-another vision I could see him having is dendro, partly because he's always down to have more knowledge about magic that he doesn't know yet and is in constant pursuit of creating pacts with the demon brothers

Simeon

-another hydro wielder :)

-calm, collected, elegant, sticks to their principles- classic hydro archetype tbh I love him so much

-again, very similar to Lucifer's reasoning but he leans more towards hydro wielders like Nilou and Candace I think, who are quite relaxed but won't hesitate to protect what they love and fight for what they deem is right

-spoiler warning: he literally got cast out of heaven for the mc.

-as I've said before, there really isn't anything I can add that I haven't said before, other than the fact that Simeon would definitely enjoy Xinqiu's company and possibly get along with Furina when discussing acting and the arts

-other than hydro, I don't think any other vision suits him tbh (big maybe on anemo but like, it doesn't really fit tbh)

I am so fucking bad at character analysis but here you guys go

the labor of my sleepless night while i gather more motivation to write the second chapter of madame neuvillette

also i am so very tempted to start writing for other fandoms but this blog is enough for now tbh

[sk2lton]

Heyyy I jus finished reading your Unfortunate Incident where Ayato and Al-Haitham broke something precious/important to us and I was wondering what if instead of breaking it they accidentally thought it was trash and threw it away?

For example like an old friendship bracelet. It was given to us by a dear old friend who isn’t around anymore and since it’s been years the thread has started to break or loosened causing it to look like a flimsy old string/thread with charms

MISSING MEMENTO﹙☆﹚— GENSHIN 

they throw away a precious item of yours. 

referencing this: unfortunate incident

— warnings: you and al-haitham fight, implied death of a friend (beidou, cyno), not proofread, probably ooc cyno & al-haitham

— characters: ayato, cyno, al-haitham, beidou 

﹙☆﹚—  KAMISATO AYATO

“ayato!” you called out to him from your bedroom. you had already done three laps around the estate, passing ayato who was located in the living room several times while searching each room. 

“what’s got you so frantic? or are you perhaps trying to hone your speed-walking skills?” he lifted his head up from the book in his hands.

“of course! how else am i supposed to evade enemies if i can’t speed-walk? it’s the basis for running!” you sarcastically responded, earning a hearty chuckle from him. 

“what is it, dear?” ayato asked you. 

“have you seen a journal? i brought it on our trip yesterday, but i can’t seem to find it now,” you explained to him. the journal in question was an old book filled with pages full of drawings, illustrated by someone you looked up to. before leaving to adventure, they gave you that journal years ago and you haven’t seen them since. although time has definitely taken a toll on the precious book, with its spine breaking in several places and its pages which were torn and brown around the edges. 

“i don’t think so,” he hummed.

“are you sure? i need to find it,” you groaned, finally returning to the living room so you two wouldn’t have to shout to hear each other.

ayato clicked his tongue, trying to recall any memory of the journal, but failed miserably. “i do not. my apologies, love.”

“no, it’s fine! don’t worry, i’m sure it’s somewhere.” you spoke, reassuring him. ayato could tell that you didn’t actually believe the words you were saying to him. it wasn’t fine and you were certainly worrying. 

“come rest for a moment,” he patted the cushion beside him, placing his book down. “i can get in touch with the places we visited while on our trip, alright? i will also help you search the house, but first, you should rest.”

you sighed in exhaustion, falling back onto the cushion. “thank you, i can always count on you.”

“that’s right. now, what exactly does it look like?” he asked. 

“the cover was brown, and it seemed to be falling apart from the spine. but, it was given to me by the adventurer i told you about before,” due to the role this person had played in your past, they were often brought up in conversations with ayato since they meant a lot to you. so did any memento of theirs. “ah, wait!” you remembered a key component of its appearance. “on the cover, there’s a symbol of a bear craved into it.”

“a bear? its head?” ayato asked. 

“yeah! that’s exactly it,” you were happy to know that ayato remembered it, so maybe it would be easier for him to help you find it!

“oh, i am very sorry. while on our trip, i found it in our luggage and thought that it had gotten there by mistake,” he explained, his hand made it to your back as he softly rubbed up and down.

“then, what did you do with it? you didn’t think to ask me about it?” you weren’t sure how to react. what exactly was he trying to tell you.

“i threw it away. i’m sorry, i really should have spoken to you first. it slipped my mind and i was very reckless,” your breath hitched as ayato spoke.

“you threw it away...” you whispered to yourself. although you were very upset, it was hard to say anything to ayato. he was remaining calm, which helped you remain calm as well, and his genuine apology seemed to reach your heart. because of those reasons, you found it hard to actually get mad at him. 

“i will contact the place we stayed at and see if they can find it,” he said softly. you nodded in agreement.

﹙☆﹚—  CYNO

“cyno, have you seen my friendship bracelet?” you asked moving cushions on the couch, hoping that it would be under one of them. when you found nothing there, you nudged cyno, who instantly stood up from the couch, as if he alread knew that you were going to ask him to sit up for a moment. you continued to remove the large cushions and check under there to no avail.

“no,” he answered, sitting back down. he watched you continue to run back and forth around the room, searching for this bracelet. despite how quickly he answered no, he soon became concerned since it seemed like you were about to flip the entire house upside down. to stop you for causing a horrible accident, he asked, “what bracelet?”

you gave him a side-eye before ducking under the coffee table. “my friendship bracelet. i took it off to cook dinner, but now i can’t find it!” you explained to him. cyno moved the table, revealing you crouched over under it. he looked down at you confused, and you returned the look.

“get up,” he offered you his hand. “i will help you find it.” 

taking his hand, you thanked him. “it’s old. a friend from a while back gave it to me. we lost touch but still. it has some charms on it, but most of them are cracked or have pieces broken off. that’s what i get for wearing it everyday.”

cyno nodded, “okay. have you checked the kitchen already?”

“yes,” you answered.

“can you describe it better?” cyno asked. it was very obvious that he had no clue where your bracelet was, let alone where to begin looking. he stood in the middle of the room with you, awkwardly shifting his weight from one leg to the other as his eyes searched the room. it would certainly be hard for him to spot anything, let alone a small bracelet, if he just remained in the same place. however, he was trying his best. 

“the thread is very frayed. like when you almost cut straight through a rope, but there’s those few small strings hanging on. i’m surprised the bracelet’s stayed together for as long as it has. but, i’m glad it’s held on for so long. it means a lot to me,” you explained to him as you headed back into the kitchen. it was just a room over, so it was easy to continue talking to cyno, especially due to the somewhat open kitchen which allowed you to peer right into the living room. 

“why’s that?” cyno asked while trying to rack his brain for an imagery of this bracelet. not only had you just given a description of it, but you stated you wore it everyday! 

“a friend made it for me. one of the only charms still intact was from the last trip they ever went on. it’s a cute fox. it’s supposed to represent protection,” you explained. 

cyno’s eyes stopped searching the room. instantly, he felt horrible. he wasn’t sure what to say in that moment, but he knew that the random thread he had thrown out earlier was certainly your beloved bracelet. most importantly, he knew that it was already gone. in spite of that fact, cyno excused him and went outside where he had taken the garbage after accidentally disposing your bracelet. he tried rummaging through the bag but wasn’t able to find anything.

with a frown, he went back inside. “cyno? you smell... bad,” your hand instinctively reached up to block your nose.

“i am very sorry.” he grunted out.

“huh?” you shot him a confused look.

“i am truly sorry. i accidentally threw your bracelet out,” he explained with his head down. 

“what!?” you went to search the trash, but cyno stopped you with his hand gently gripping into your forearm. 

“i already looked, i could not find it. i’m sorry,” he repeated his apology. silently, he removed his hand from your forearm and walked into the other room. he wanted to give you some space. 

﹙☆﹚—  AL-HAITHAM

al-haitham sworn innocence. he did not know where your plush toy was. he has not seen it. and the part he emphasized most, he does not even know what you're talking about. al-haitham has never seen a plush toy in your home. you found his protests to be rather far-fetched, considering the fact that your plush usually sat on your bed at all times. no one else could be responsible for its disappearance, not even you, who refused to take the toy anywhere. it's not like strangers were travelling through your bedroom frequently. it's not possible that someone, who had been passing by, had accidentally placed your beloved plush toy into the garbage. if so, you'd have a much bigger problem than your missing stuffed animal. a rabbit, to be exact. although it had worn greatly over time, turning into pieces of tattered and torn fabric with loose stitches connecting them together.

"are you sure you haven't seen it?" you were audibly frustrated as you pulled your entire room apart, searching up and down for this plush. al-haitham stood in the corner of the room. it was unsure whether the look on his face was amusement or shock, but either way, he was providing no help to your investigate. he had already given his statement, so what more could he do?

"yes, i am sure. i haven't seen any such thing," al-haitham reinforced his statement.

"al-haitham, are you sure? it's a rabbit plush. but it's doesn't.. necessarily look like one now. it's green, and obviously very worn down." you explained to him, using your hands to show him roughly the exact size it would be.

that's when you saw al-haitham pause for a moment. you could tell there was something he was going to say, but instead, he walked out of the room. when he came back a while later, you were none the wiser.

"what was that about?" you asked him, sighing due to stress.

"i thought it was just a bunch of rags. so, to help you out, i took care of them. now, i realize that i caused a slight mishap," he spoke, remaining at the doorway of your bedroom.

"al-haitham, what do you mean? what do you mean you took care of it?"

"i threw them into the trash." you looked at him in disbelief before getting up and walking to the door, attempting to push past him. he didn't budge and continued to block the way. "i already checked it, and it's already been picked up. there's no point."

"you don't get to decide that. you don't know how much that meant to me," you gritted your teeth.

"yes, you're right. i don't know how much that 'toy' meant to you. it was about to fall apart into pieces anyway," al-haitham pointed out. however, you already knew that. you had been planning to fix some of the stitches to save it from falling apart but hadn't gotten around to it yet.

"so what if it was? it was mine! i don't go around throwing out every single thing at your house that i think is invaluable and ragged!" you pushed him again. his hands were wrapped around the doorframe to help reinforce his body. he wasn't moving until he wanted to.

"i wouldn't have anything like that around my house in the first place," he retorted.

"yea, okay, well i'm sorry that a gift from my childhood is so invaluable and uninteresting to you, that you went as far as throwing it away!" you yelled at him.

al-haitham didn't say anything. his eyes simply stared into yours. it was hard to guess what he was thinking and you didn't even want to try. it would just be a waste of time. just like every time you try to guess what he's thinking. you're always wrong. in that long and suffocating silence, he moved to the side and you walked past him without a second glance.

finally, al-haitham spoke up. "you're right, i shouldn't have done that."

the loud bang of the front door slamming resonated throughout your home. al-haitham always realizes his wrongdoings a little too late. 

﹙☆﹚—  BEIDOU

“have you checked everywhere yet?” beidou asked as you two searched your room. it was lost. a photograph of you and your old friend was lost. despite its frayed edges and dulled colours, it was a special item to you. its been involved in its fair share of accidents, including that one time you accidentally spilled water onto it, making a mess of the ink and paper. even then, the photograph miraculous remained in one piece. you would have expected it to be destroyed after that. so, ever since then, you’ve made sure to take care of it with extra good care. it was hard to make out your face in the photo, but the face of your old friend was surprisingly still visible. 

“yes!” you answered her question rather panicked. you were upset, to say the least. no words would be able to accurately describe the heartache you were feeling. it was an important picture to you. the only one you had of you and your friend. to have lost it is like having lost your friend again.

“hey, don’t worry. we’ll find it,” beidou reassured you. you were tense and she noticed this. in response, she put her hand on your shoulder. almost instantly, your shoulders dropped, releasing the tension. 

“but what if we don’t,” you mumbled.

“i’ll make sure we do! what’s it look like again? maybe i could get the crew on the search too,” beidou inquired. “are there any distinct marks?”

“well...” you paused, trying your best to recall all the small details of the item. “it honestly looks like a mess. but there’s one part of it that’s very discernible. there’s a heart on the back of the picture.” it was drawn on with paint, so no amount of water would be able to the heart.

beidou paused. “oh damn, i’m so sorry.” she spoke. you gave her a confused look. “i’m really sorry. i think i might’ve accidentally threw it away while cleaning up the lose papers on your desk.” your face, somehow, contorted into an even more saddened expression. she went to the desk in your room, and pointed to a spot on the table. “was it there? leaning on that planter?” she asked. she wanted to make sure— no, she needed to make sure. beidou felt horrible. did she really do that? she hoped not. she hoped it was just a loose piece of paper, like how she had originally thought. maybe, she had got it wrong and your photograph wasn’t even left there in the first place! 

“yes, it was there,” you spoke slowly, pausing between words, as if you were still processing. you were unsure how to react. on one hand, beidou seemed so genuinely sorry. on the other hand, it was such a precious memento to you. 

beidou sharply inhaled, leaning over your desk, with her bangs concealing her gaze. “look, i’m really sorry. but i know apologizing will only help me. what can i do for you? want me to see if i can find it in the trash or do ya’ wanna punish me?” she said the last part as a joke, and you were thankful for that because it helped lighten the mood as you let out a small giggle.

“let’s see if we can find it,” you answered her. she walked over to where you were and swung an arm around you, pulling you in for a side hug. it was another way of her apologizing.

“okay, got it, boss!” beidou cheered, trying to uplift your mood as much as possible. 

[immobiliter]

       “ I'd rather be the hunter than the prey if I can help it, Mr Zhongli. ” The blithe remark was accompanied by an easy smile. It wasn't as if Beidou was a stranger to this establishment, despite having never met Mr Zhongli personally; whenever one of the Crux, one of her own, passed away at sea, all possible arrangements were made to repatriate them to their family in Liyue or, in the event that wasn't possible, ensure that the proper funeral rites were conducted for them nonetheless. “ The work you do here at Wangsheng Funeral Parlor is admirable, but too long spent here and I think I'd miss the companionship of the living. ”

Read on Ao3

Chapter 7: Ready if You Are

Shenhe practically dragged Yelan to her room before her hands traveled to the edge of her dress. This time, Yelan would let her explore. The girl was clearly eager, and this wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment occurrence. These feelings were real.

“Yelan…I want to make you feel the same way you made me feel. I may not have adequate knowledge of these things, but…”

Yelan put a single finger to her lips. “Shenhe, why is it that you’re normally so quiet, but when it comes to moments like this, you talk up a storm? I love you. All of you. We’ll figure things out as we go, just like your training, okay?”

Shenhe turned bright pink. “That was the first time you said I love you.”

Yelan smiled bashfully. “Well…it certainly took me long enough now, didn’t it? I’m sorry I didn’t respond to your feelings that night, or let you reciprocate. I was afraid of hurting you. But I realize now that not talking to you must have hurt you even more. I’m ready if you are.”

Shenhe grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into a kiss. Yelan was surprised at her controlled strength. At times she forgot Shenhe was far more powerful than she was. Wrapping her arms around her neck, she let herself melt into her.

As they made their way back to the bed, the two women undressed each other, longing to eliminate anything that separated them. Tumbling into the sheets, Shenhe kissed down Yelan’s neck. Remember what Captain Beidou told you. Your vision isn’t just for battle. There had been many times Shenhe saw cryo as a curse rather than a blessing. But that was about to change.

“Yelan…do you trust me?” She whispered against the skin of her chest.

“Mmm Shenhe, I’m sure I can handle it,” she chuckled. With renewed confidence, she brought her hand to Yelan’s breast. A faint silvery glow emanated from her fingers and Yelan felt a sudden slight chill. Wait a second…is she…?

As Shenhe’s fingertips made contact with Yelan’s nipple, her head snapped back into the pillow. She had charged her touch with elemental power to a perfectly balanced level.

“You’re a good teacher Yelan,” Shenhe said. “I’d be deathly afraid to give this a try if you hadn’t trained with me day after day. I figured this would be a good way to demonstrate just between the two of us.”

Yelan’s eyes rolled in the back of her head. She selfishly and silently thanked Beidou for whatever perverse tips she must have given the girl because they were certainly working.

“Fuck…Shenhe…where did you learn this?”

“Figured this would wake you up, sleepyhead,” she laughed. She continued to take her time kneading, fondling…feeling. For once in her life, her powers no longer scared her. They were being used to bring pleasure instead of pain.

As Shenhe moved down her body, Yelan soon discovered fingers weren’t her only method of conduction. Her tongue left a frosty chill against her flesh as she licked a trail down her belly.

“Archons…Shenhe…that’s cold…”

Shenhe looked up at her from where she sat on her knees.

“Want me to stop?”

“Absolutely…not.”

With that reassurance, she continued making her way down to her core. Yelan could feel the chill of her breath as she ached to feel her inside of her. When the strange contrast of wet and warm met with her tongue, Shenhe let out a soft groan. Captain Beidou was right - the wait was worth it.

Yelan threaded her fingers through Shenhe’s silvery tresses, lightly pushing her to keep going. “Shenhe…mmmm…this feels…”

Curious to try other things, Shenhe slipped a finger inside of her and felt Yelan’s grip on her head tighten. Slowly, she began to move her hand in time with her licks, savoring every sound and taste. Yelan’s moans grew to a crescendo until Shenhe heard her scream her name.

Yelan lay ragged and panting when Shenhe came to rest beside her. “So…was that ok?” The melodious sound of Yelan’s laugh burst through the room. “Little crane…I don’t know where you learned to do that, but I’m impressed. That was lovely,” she said as she kissed her temple.

“Good…I’m glad,” Shenhe replied with a yawn, her eyes already half shut. Poor girl must have worn herself out using that much control over cryo, Yelan thought to herself.

“Rest well, Shenhe. I’ll be sure to return the favor when you’ve got the energy to fully enjoy it,” she whispered as she pulled her into a warm embrace and the two drifted off to sleep.

———————-

The next morning, Shenhe awoke to an unusual sensation. Her body normally ran a bit colder due to the power her vision had bestowed on her, but today, she was thrumming with the warmth of hands and lips belonging to someone else.

“Now who’s the sleepyhead, hmmm?” Yelan murmured against the skin of her shoulder as she felt the sharp but gentle pinch of teeth nip at her. Her hand had already sought Shenhe’s exposed breast, causing her to squeeze her legs together to relieve some of the aching need that had started to grow.

“Mmmm…I think I deserved some rest after that stellar performance last night,” she tossed back.

“Oh, no doubt. You didn’t even give me a chance to thank you properly, so I’m taking it now,” she replied with a teasing pinch to her nipple. She suddenly sat up and pulled Shenhe into her lap. “Turn around for me, little crane.”

Obediently, Shenhe moved to face her. “I want to look into your eyes when I make you come.” The younger girl’s face flushed as she wasn’t used to hearing her speak to her like this. Yelan peppered kisses down her neck, across her chest, and on each breast, taking her time to ensure Shenhe would be ready for what was about to happen next.

Gripping Shenhe’s hip with one hand, she held two of her fingers against her soaked entrance. “I want you to go at a pace you’re comfortable with, baby. I’ll move with you. Take what you want from me and I’ll take care of the rest,” she instructed.

Having newfound confidence after last night, Shenhe gave a firm nod as she sunk down onto Yelan. She mewled as her body adjusted to the width of her fingers. Cloud Retainer must have been insane - how could feeling this way about someone be harmful? Knowing Yelan trusted her to lead and that she wanted her to be comfortable was not a feeling she was used to, but it now set the standard for how she knew she should be treated.

Yelan felt her shift up and down against her, and she used her thumb to circle the sensitive nub resting against it. “Ye-yelan…” she groaned as she sped up her movements. “I think I’m…”

“That’s right, Shenhe. Let me hear you. I could use a wake-up call.”

Shenhe came with erratic thrusts as Yelan gripped her hips and moved her fingers inside of her. “Yelan! Yelannnn please…too…sensitive!” she yelled as she fell forward into her arms.

Holding her close, Yelan whispered, “Good girl, little crane. You’ve come a long way.” Shenhe looked up at her through eyes bleary with pleasure. It felt good to have someone encourage her rather than constantly tell her she needed to push herself further. “Come now. Let’s get up and enjoy the day.”

Cooking breakfast together had become a favorite pastime for the two. Shenhe was at the stove trying to flip pancakes but wasn’t having the best of luck. Yelan came up behind her, brought her arms around, and rested her hands atop Shenhe’s. “Here, let me help you,” she said as she made Shenhe’s hands move with hers.

They were interrupted by the clanging of boots on wood and the trap door creaking open, more frantic than usual. “Yo! Yelan! We’ve gotta talk!” Beidou yelled as she ran around the corner stopping when she saw the two of them in an embrace. “Woah…s-sorry, didn’t mean to interrupt,” she smirked as Yelan glared at her before pulling away from Shenhe.

“What’s so urgent that you had to come hauling ass down her?” Yelan asked, annoyed.

“Ningguang got a visit from a very angry Cloud Retainer this morning. She’s demanding we bring Shenhe back to the mountains.”

Shenhe’s blood ran cold. “Master wants me to return already? But why?” Yelan took her hand and squeezed it reassuringly.

“Apparently, she saw the two of you while you were out yesterday and is not pleased,” Beidou was becoming more anxious as the discussion went on. “She fears Yelan is taking advantage of your innocence.”

Yelan scoffed in response. “This is ridiculous. Shenhe is perfectly capable of making her own decisions. She can’t ask us for help and then take her away because she doesn’t like the fact she can’t control her every move.” The note of panic in her voice was impossible to miss.

“Look, Ning is trying to get her to calm down, but she’s demanding to see Shenhe. We’re meeting on the outskirts of Liyue and I am supposed to bring you there.”

A look of determination spread across Shenhe’s face. “I will speak to master. I’m no longer the scared little girl she once knew.”

genre: crack, headcanons

summary: me and my friend (Ilie) came up with this in 3 seconds without critical thinking and using our frontal lobes then decided to fully commit to this instead of properly doing our homework (math finals are next week)

notes: There's no moral or intellectual motivation for this we just decided to do it and went fuckin AT IT like it was our god-given mission to save the world.

all characters mentioned are above 18 no nsfw mentions, just hc of what genshin characters would wear for underwear

Albedo

Very particular about the fabric and the cut of the underwear. Have to be the right color, shape, HAVE TO BE THE RIGHT EVERYTHING! He would stick with regular 100% cotton, BUT, he has some silk once for when he really wants to treat himself or for fancy occasions.

Al Haitham He coordinates his underwear with the weather or some other arbitrary bullshit that doesnt make sense to us normal plebeians. He has to have something really stretchy because "Oh! having good joint mobility and being stretchy is good for combat, therefor I NEED the stretchy underwear. THEREFOR it is VITAL for my E V O L U T I O N to have them stretchy.” - Al Haitham, probably

Ayato “He wears normal basic black and white boxers Just cotton material because he's so normal, he's so normal, 100% normal, there's nothing special or weird about him that's so normal and it's a testimony to his normalcy, there's nothing wrong here and nothing weird here to see!” Ilie

Ayaka She's just like her brother. Her underwear is morally correct AND politically correct. Her underwear is a pinnacle to human righteousness.

Baizhu His favorite color is purple, therefore it's vital for him to have purple ones!! Has some magic kind of underwear that doesn't get lint on them whenever he washes them. His underwear just kinda rejects lint!

Beidou There is lace trim and there is silk, she wants nothing but the best for her divine feline of treasures. She has specific underwear for specific occasions. She has one for when she knows she's going to fight, for when she’s going to partying, drinking, SHE HAS SPECIFIC UNDERWEAR FOR SPECIFIC OCCASIONS!!!!!

Candace Kinda like Al Haitham with the flexible, stretchy part. She wants her joints open and stuff, doesn’t wear underwear past her hips. Probably a thong type of person.

Childe He has a pair with tiny little narwhals embroidered on it. The thread is shiny so whenever he’s stressed he just stares in the mirror and wiggles to see the light reflect on the shiny thread. Bonus: he wore them while fighting the traveler to boost his own confidence. He’s a cotton type of guy, not a silk type of guy because it feels weird against his skin. Feels wrong!!

Cyno “I can’t see him as a person that wears underwear” Bea

Dehya Fashion type of gal, correlates her outfits with her underwear for her own confidence. “Ooh all of my outfits matching today oh yeah baby” Def a silk type of person, despite it being sticky and feeling icky she still wears it because IT'S PRETTY! RAHHH! Wears lace.

Diluc *Argues whether or not he wears batman underwear or not*

Eula Wears lace! Is a thong type of person, she has them high up. Underwear that aren’t thongs fucking SUCK!!!

Ganyu “There’s grass in her ass.” Ilie (I WAS JOKING!) Too tired to bother wearing something pretty, only cares that her underwear feels soft and nice to wear. Kinda like: “waaah, I have to go to work” *Throws whatever on (puts on a sock)*

Gorou Doesn’t wear underwear, he needs to let it breathe.

Heizou Doesn’t give a shit, throws on whatever. So long as it’s vaguely underwear-esque

Hu Tao She definitely has to have cute little ghosts embroidered on them. Wears only red and black ones, she would have really cute underwear in the color that she likes!

Itto “He ALSO doesn’t wear any underwear” “He wears YOU as underwear” Bea and Ilie He probably doesn’t own any, and the pairs he does own have fucking holes in them. Spends his money on other stuff that makes it impossible for him to buy a new pair. Economically irresponsible.

Jean Wears flower patterns. Cute patterns! But not super basic patterns, just flowers and stuff. IN MUTED COLORS, SPECIFICALLY!!!

Kaeya He wears LACE!!! Definitely DEFINETLY wears leather underwear for fun times ;) Outside of that he also likes to spoil himself, man just look at him. Ain't no way you lookin like Kaeya and not giving a shit about the way you look! Buys quality underwear that both feels nice and looks nice.

(Bitch wrote this all on her own im not included in this fucketry - Ilie)

Kazuha Doesn’t really care so long as its underwear. Sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures, he’s def shoved a leaf down there at one sad, sad point of his life.

Keqing Shits expensive and shit is purple! Has bows on her stuff in the front.

Kokomi She wears cut out underwear, just look at her outfit. She also likes matching her underwear with her outfit, only if she isn’t busy with life or work where she’ll settle with whatever.

Shinobu Does she even fit underwear in those shorts?

Layla Def wear blue, white and black ones. She's the type of person to not put super much thought into it, so long as it's the things she likes. Color, feel and material, stuff she deems acceptable!

Lisa Lacey, purple and expensive. Wears high waist underwear that's expensive and purple, and expensive and purple.

Mona She has a few good ones, but that she only wears when she wants to really REALLY want to treat herself.

Ningguang Expensive, lace trimmed and solid laced ones. She’s got weird cut-out and strappy underwear that’s more complex than a mathematical problem. Shits made from silk spun from the rarest flower on the globe that blooms once every 15 years and a pair of undies cost the entirety of Liyue’s BNP.

She also coordinates them with her outfits because she’s organized and sleek like that.

Raiden Dark purple, and LACE! ITS LACE, SOFTER THAN CLOUDS AND COMFY AS HELL! THEY WILL LAST FOR ETERNITY! RAHHHHH!!!!

Rosaria Has a really specific requirement for her underwear to be dark red and black ONLY.

Kujou Sara Black, all solid, no lace no details no nothing. Vaguely devoid of any soul. Her underwear having any type of pazzazz would be a fucking crime against humanity and her devotion to the shogun, somehow.

Shenhe ‘People wear underwear? Glad im not people, underwear sucks’---Shenhe

Sucrose Just basic. Like basic basic, except shes very particular about the material feeling ‘right’ (there’s literally no boundary for right and wrong material, if she doesnt like it its due to some arbitrary fact that not she can figure out. The underwear is simply doomed to be disliked)

Thoma ‘I feel like he doesn’t really care, wears whatever colour, just slaps em on. Only comfy fancy pair he has are a pair that Ayato gifted him’ - Bea

Tighnari Ilie: “He has a pocket in the gooch are yk?”

Bea: “Like a fucking kangaroo??”

Ilie: “yeah, he puts herbs and stuff in there to marinate his balls in the positive calming effects of weirdass plants”

Venti “He wears thongs” - Bea

(Ilie was mortified and tearing up a little bit when I described it as a bag for genitalia)

Wanderer Has only a few pairs he religiously recycles like his life depends on it because hes so UTTERLY, INSANELY, ILLOGICALLY specific about how his underwear should be. Bro gets new underwear like once every 50 years because he’s so damn unwilling to try and find new ones. Once he blew up a store because he was so offended about the underwear not being right (during his evil scaramouche era)

Xiao “Hes been wearing the same pair of underwear since birth” - Bea

Yae Miko She wears expensive silky stuff because come on, look at her. Is any other answer even close to correct?

“shes definitely stolen one of raiden’s pairs lol” - Bea

Yanfei Her underwear are like lucky-go charms, she has a pair she wears as emotional and moral support to really big, risky cases.

Yelan God whats up with rich fancy women and my human instincts screaming silk. Shes rich! Of course all of her underwear are the softest and finest silk known to man.

Yoimiya Just wears the weird damn bandage short undie things??? That stuff honestly cannot be comfortable, image your skin getting pinched between the bandages. Ow.

Zhongli

Ilie: “His underwear are all 300+ years old-”

Bea: “NO! When he was Morax he went down to Liyue, saw someones underwear hanging out to dry or something, stole them because they looked weird and tried to figure out how to wear them and couldnt figure it out. Some random guy came around and was like ‘wtf no you wear it like this’”

Ilie: “What, like in public?”

Bea: “YES. And ever since hes worn only that pair, and he didnt get any other ones until he decided to become human”

It's late. The residents sleep peacefully behind closed doors, listening to the pitter-patter of the heavy rain. Those fond of traveling at such times are either ill-intentioned, or secretly pursuing the former. It doesn't matter who wins or loses. The rain will wash away all traces either way. When the dawn breaks and the sky clears, the mysterious guest would have been gone already, without a soul noticing.

Some tidbits that are incredibly important for my portrayal of Yelan: (I will be adding to this list over-time and editing these! Last edited: June 3rd, 2024)

Attitude. Yelan is from the nation heavily inspired by China, a country that is very firmly rooted within specific customs tied to social etiquette, which all seem to emphasize a deep sense of respect and modesty. I take this a lot to heart with Yelan, who is shown in the game to function incredibly well within the bounds of diplomacy, alongside a rather playful demeanor. She harbors, as expected, a deep-rooted sense of respect for her elders as shown towards Uncle Tian, Xiao, and when she speaks of her ancestors; she seems rather 'reserved' and polite in her initial social approach, and these traits seem to stretch out across her general interactions, until a playful nature becomes more evident among those she's closer to. In league with this, Yelan is not overtly confrontational, nor will she be rude, even around targets surrounding her profession, whether big or small, she will never be rude nor condescending. In case you skimmed past it in the above links, I would suggest giving this a read, until I write up something more thoroughly.

Her ownership of Yanshang, and people's knowledge of said fact. For the love of all that is (un)holy, the takeover of Yanshang Teahouse after Tartaglia delivers its former owner into the hands of Liyue's authorities is not something that is common knowledge whatsoever. This may likely even stretch to even members of the Qixing outside of Ningguang and Uncle Tian (the Yuheng may be another), as the less people know, the better it may serve even the Tianquan herself. In essence, unless we've spoken about it directly, do not have your muse be aware of details that they have no way of knowing.

Shipping. I don’t see Yelan as someone who is particularly made for traditional romantic relationships in any cases outside of primarily one. I feel this way because of her line of work (and her likely inevitable fate), but more importantly so, the reason that draws her to take on the work that she does. After the loss of her team, she told Ningguang the following: “We both made a mistake: We shouldn’t have involved ordinary folk in what we do.” This shows that Yelan shoulders a burden that she believes others couldn’t and/or should never bear because of the fate that is tied to it. For Yelan, this speaks of such an inherent loneliness that she has chosen in her life and is okay with, which is presumably because it’s deeply-rooted in her due to the fate of her team, and the influence of her ancestors. But this decision makes her rather incompatible with most individuals, for she will, honestly, never give up what she does while she lives, and on top of that, rather refuses to involve anyone else in her business with and within the Chasm as a whole. In my opinion, this leaves the only people (for romantic long-term investments), ones who have or know a similar life to her. Someone who understands active willed sacrifice and the sense of isolation that comes along with that. It’s not filling loneliness with someone else, it’s finding the same loneliness in another by total and utter happenstance, for they understand this incomprehensible thing that many simply never will. (With that in mind, my default verse will inevitably work towards a ship with delusionaid’s Wriothesley. This is exclusive to her portrayal of him and will not be written with any other.)  

Physical Encounters. Based on how exemplary care she takes of herself physically, denying herself of simple pleasures such as sweets (usually) because they can too easily create an addiction and ‘disrupt focus’, I continue this across the board. The human body has its inevitable cravings, and so I do believe she indulges in physical encounters to relieve herself of this. I do not see these as ships, and they take place before and in the early phases of her slow-forming relationship with Wriothesley. Some examples of contenders for this? Kaeya, Beidou— and no, Ningguang is and would never be included in this lineup. But never fret, this is simply a personal headcanon of mine and will never be forced on you if you write any of these characters. If this is something you're interested in looking into, along with its potential complexities of even a potential one-sided development, it's always worth a whisper, and who knows where we'll end up.

[femmesandhoney]

what do you think abt the implied lgb characters/relationships in genshin (and other hyv games if you play them)? feel like it's always a topic of discourse amongst players wrt to whether it's meant to be genuine lgb representation or if it's just fanservice/fetishization/aimed at straight people but recently i have seen people on twt deny that censorship is the reason hyv can't have explicit gay relationships which is silly and also quite ironic considering the jeht quest w dialogue differences for lumine recently got changed to be less intimate. personally i find the implied relationships to be genuine n not just fanservice but i do like most of the popular genshin ships and think it's nice they have so many interactions and content so maybe i'm biased.

its definitely censorship and its pretty obvious. didn't they just have to rewrite some random background lore too the other day bc a gay relationship could be interpreted (not including the Jeht stuff, and I think we may have seen the same tweets anon lol), despite it really not being so and easy to read as just friendship. the fact they had to change it up many months of its release, after however it was brought to the attention of higher-ups, shows theres definitely someone or some authority that wants to censor any inkling of gay and lesbian relationships from genshin. im not familiar w other hoyo games, but aren't bronya and seele more explicitly lesbians in honkai?

but like come on you gotta be stupid to think ships like beidou and ningguang or alhaitham and kaveh aren't very clear in their attempts to bypass censorship and hint as heavily as possible. there was this good thread awhile back analyzing how beidou and ningguang fit "traditional" chinese lesbian narratives that was quite interesting, like there's obviously deep thought into how these relationships are portrayed. alhaithams VA literally had to redo a line about/to Kaveh bc it sounded too suggestive or romantic or something lmao, but he was just going off of what he could tell their relationship was implying. kaveh's VA also said the same of how he asked if his lines were about/to Alhaitham so he could voice it way differently bc their relationship was so hilariously exes vibes. like hoyo does a pretty good job at making their hinted gay and lesbian relationships easy to spot to an average person, it at least makes you go "wait a minute" and that seems to be the best they're able to get away with under whatever censorship theyre dealing with.
