About language brainrot. Imagine writer creator reader who finally learns how to write in Teyvat's weird symbols and they want to publish their book. They decided to do it anonymously to avoid the "aaaaaah our creator wrote the holy scripture" sort of situation. Except it didn't work. The reader's style is too different from the rest of the world, so even if they tried to simulate the flowery speech it wasn't effective.
Another thing. Reader who decided to read some local books to practice their reading. They asked for something simple and similar to their speech. But the only books merely similar to it are 2000 and more years old. It's funny how the older text is the more you can understand it. On this note. If reader write something i feel like it would be hard to understand for Teyvat's people.
Imagine a reader who is autistic or has any other NDs imparing their communication skills. They practically trained themselves to say sertain phrases in sertain situation. But it doesn't work in Teyvat. And everything just stacks at each other. Difference in speech, being a God (so people react weirdly to you), bad communication skills, not understanding nonverbal cues and so on. There's gonna be a lot of misunderstanding. I imagine how followers would walk on the eggshells not to upset and angry their God and reader who does the same not to say something people will get wrong. Again.
Reader who regained all their memories of creating Teyvat, they're super powerful and stuff. But they still struggle with the modern language. Because all the memories are like millions years old.
✨️NEXYLAZA UR SO FUCKING SMART AND CREATIVE✨️ UR BRAIN>>>>>> EVERYTHING
GIF Akashi (black hair) is all the people who read the Sagau/Isekai Genshin tag and Bokuto (silver) is STILL ME RANTING ABOUT LANGUAGE IN TEYVAT LMAO
They cant escape me, sorry people who just wanted to read SAGAU normal things, im filling up the tag💀
I HAD OTHER ASKS BEFORE THIS ONE AND AS I GOT THRU EM I WAS "OMMGGGG WE'RE GETTIN CLOSER TO NEXY'SSSS ASSSKKKK EEEEEEE"
YOU ARE A GODDAMN GENIUS
DHALALWKDHDHS
ME ABOUT THIS ASK:
(^ lol biblically accurate deadaquarius)
I DONT EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGINNNN
BRAINROTTING OVER UR ENTIRE ASK!!
♡
Also, its getting kinda old now, so here is the blunt language v. Teyvat's flowery language post for reference! :)
Hhhhhhhhhhh
IF U WRITE STUFF
AND UR IN WORDY TEYVAT LAND
AINT NO WAY,👏
U COULD EVEN, 👏👏
GET CLOSE👏👏👏
TO THESE BITCHES SPEECH👏👏👏👏
◇
Like,, imagine right now if i told you to write me 4 pages of an essay in entirely early 18th century vernacular.
(For reference: when the story Pride & Prejudice takes place)
... like??
Bitch aint no way u can do that and actually show that to a historian or an actual living person from that time period
and them actually say "wow! An excellently worded 18th century essay!"
💀.
◇
So tying into that whole, "the only simple texts are like literal cunnieform clay tablets or sm shit"
Your writing to them just sounds like if a scribe just copied off what one of those tablets said just onto paper HAHA
And like, if u try and dress it up, it just ends up sounding like its from a slightly later time period
Like if ur casual writing sounds like 1 million years ago, u being flowery sounds like 8-7 thousand years ago u cant win LMAO
◇
Omg ur trying to go to that-
wait whats it called,,fuck i dont know Sumeru good enough yet
The.. HOUSE OF DAENA GOT IT
Yeah so ur thinking "Oh what better way to learn a dialect?/vernacular than reading books by them!"
And u basically snatch Alhaitham at the soonest possible chance to take you there
(Bc when i went in, it was just random lore books everywhere so)
Needless to say you have no clue how this place is organized, so u convince him to direct you to books u can easily read first
Like as close to your speech as possible!! U tell him :)
.
..
...lol
It literally takes like 3 hours to get something readable LMAO
Bc when the poor feeble scribe initially brought you smth he thought was pretty old and close to ur speech, like just first thought,
... It sounded like it was from the middle of the 18th century to you lol
So, with a "hmm" and a squint at the dusty book you'd already given up on
Alhaitham slowly went around the library making a stack of books, dropped them off in front of you... not a single sentence.
...then he made a stack of scrolls...
..nope..
...a stack of stone tablets...
.....getting closer?? it was really weird seeing Shakespearean language carved into stone....
...and then, with a conversation to a second library secretary deeper in the library, past a caged area of shelves to protect them...
...he escorts you behind the restricted section towards the back filled with glass display cases.
(Several of which contain the most ancient looking sets of artifacts you've ever seen)
...Finally, u arrive at a long glass case of several clay tablets.
Half of which sound like they're from the 1910s-20s, and the other, even older half, sounding straight out of the 2000s..
..
....
......
...Good god.
(Good..you??)
These crazy speaking bastard-previously-video-game-characters were right.
...
You are suddenly, viscerally hit with the image of Zhongli's idle, "Osmanthus wine tastes the same as I remember, but where are those who share the memory?" 💀
◇
Alhaitham side eyes you,, (he looks,, very interested, yet also kinda concerned??? HIM, CONCERNED????!!!)
"Ahem, the texts before thy Greatest Lord art the eldest- well, perhaps, more appropriately, the eldest and most intact, pieces of written language known to our humankind."
...
....aYOO MAN 😭😭
...Ur just staring at these half cracked, baked clay tablet thingys, full of slang from like 2003-
Alhaitham coughs.
"Uh, thanks. ...Sorry about all the.. trouble with this..."
BRO HOW OLD DOES HE THINK U ARE NOW-
"This task assigned to mine own person was of no trouble to my mind or spirit, Greatest Lord, fret not about it any longer."
And with a sort of shell-shocked atmosphere surrounding both of you, Alhaitham walks off to check out some other restricted books, hovering nearby yet also trying to give u space LOL
Top 10 cursed images: Seeing "Chillax, bro, dude, and weeb" carved into ancient clay tablets that look like they would be part of the Egyptian exhibit back in ur world 💀
◇
You eventually just kind of end up writing a couple pages after studying the writings, going younger and younger (nothing has ever made u feel more powerful...yet also more old..)
You stretch, just as Alhaitham finally has made his own little stack of creaky old books
He seems very curious to read what u wrote, peaking a glance over the top of his book every so often (lol nerd, cute nerd... but NERDDD)
You just offer the academic lunatic what he wants 🙄
"Haha, wanna take a look? Some drafts are... closer than others..."
The scribe immediately puts his book down, not even saving his page,
"I would be honored, Greatest Lord."
Is he excited?? 💀 omfg
U very slowly hand ur most recent practice pages over, he curls his hand under his chin "hmm" ing
...Alhaitham shakes his head
"My..deepest apologizes My Creator, but this still seems, at the earliest, from when papyrus was invented, and not yet even into scrolls..."
OK BUT ALHAITHAM WOULD GENUINELY GIVE NO FUCKS ABT CRITIQING YOU, HE MAY BE MORE POLITE ABT IT BUT EVEN IF U DID MAKE THE WORLD HES GOING FOR IT
KAVEH HAS A HEART ATTACK BC HIS ROOMMATE GOT ONTO GOD LMAO
U let ur head plop on ur pile of papers, srry babe youll never be as fancy as Mr. Darcy 😕
And as ur resting there, contemplating just walking out and finding smth to eat instead- same
Alhaitham picks up another draft.
Except it's your first attempt.
As in, you didn't even try, first attempt.
You just made some bullet point notes or some Bs, in ur regular. modern. language.
Alhaitham knocks his chair over standing up so fast-
(HE GETS SHUSHED BY THE RESTRICTED LIBRARIAN LOL, also another person unafraid to scold God lol)
...he says its a perfect example of the oldest records they've found of writing on the continent, most of which they haven't even translated yet
He asks u to teach him how to read this/speak like this lol
♧
(^^^not my best work but hope yall got smth outta it💀)
I WAS LITERALLY GONNA MAKE A WHOLE POST ON THE NEURODIVERGENT EXPERIENCE OF BEING A GOD IN TEYVAT
ESPECIALLY OF THE LANGUAGE BARRIER VARIETY!!!
THERES JUST
ACK
aCK HDHAKD
SO MUCH
TO SAY
!!!
AHHHHH
OK BUT LIKE
IF WE ACTUALLY TOOK THIS TO THE EXTREME IM IMPLYING IT WOULD BE
LIKE TEYVAT SPEAKS SEVERAL DECADES BEHIND U- MAYBE EVEN ACTUALLY
CLOSE TO PRIDE AND PREJUDICE TIMES SPEECH
THEY WOULD LITERALLY BARELY COMPHREHEND YOU
IMAGINE TRYING TO TALK TO MR. DARCY 😭
THATS LITERALLY ALL OF TEYVAT
JUST
???¿¿?????!!! <- THEM ALL THE TIME
ESP IF UR NEURODIVERGENT
I THINK IT WOULD BE EVEN MORE PROOF FOR THEM TO THINK UR GOD
BC UR BEHAVIOR WOULD BE "OFF" TO THEIR NEUROTYPICAL ASSES,
YOUR FACIAL EXPRESSIONS,
LIKE UR MASKING MAYBE BUT
U CANT KEEP THAT SHIT UP ALL THE TIME-
ESP IN CRAZY ISEKAI CIRCUMSTANCES
AND LIKE-
(ok ill tone it down before i also get shushed)
U used to be a player!!
Which would maybe mean u got rlly comfy playing Genshin all the time!
...like i know im kinda stimming when im gaming (and my natural stim is rocking so yeah no way they wouldnt notice that 💀)
So, since u may be still yknow unconsciously wanting to be comfy (esp around ur mains/team/favs)
U probably have stimmed a little around them, which, not that neurotypicals dont stim, but like
They would notice after awhile
And esp people like Alhaitham, Zhongli, Ningguang, Xiao, Ei, Aether/Lumine, Kaeya, Diluc, Kazuha, Heizou, Shenhe, Kokomi, Sara, Albedo, Dainsleif- !! GASP- !! <- my bbygirl omg i forgot abt u before now im so sorry </3
(once again i have not checked a character list, forgive my sins my readers)
^^^ Are like pretty focused on you/observant, so they'd eventually pick up on it first probably
..
...
....which allsssooo means they're like, collecting all ur neurodivergent thingys lol to compile as EVIDENCE AGAINST YOU AS TO WHY THEY KNOW UR THE CREATOR LMAO
◇
Honestly the biggest factor against u is definitely social interaction,, srry love :/
(if it helps, its bc i know itd be my downfall too thats why thats there ^ 😔)
Mostly bc i have this idea/theory? obervation? that when I especially met Adepti for the first time
Esp ones that werent as close to human society for as long as some others (like think Xiao vs. Ganyu)
And for literally every other non-human people we've met so far in Genshin-
They kinda- they kinda, radiate neurodivergent energy??
Like, they're not adherring to social norms, and not in like a bad way,
But its still rlly obvious (i mean also its probably exaggerated for us as an audience) that theyre not human pretty quickly
coughzhonglicough
COUGHVENTICOUGH-
oh geez wow excuse me, cold weather must be gettin to me- ahem hem-
Anyway, like what Nexy said in the ask,
...
...Yall are all just tiptoing around each other 😭😭
Bc these ppl arent from Earth countries,
All their behavior is weird to you 😭
U dont know how to mask with them yet 😭😭
THE UNBELIEVABLE AMOUNT OF MISCOMMUNICATION THAT HAPPENS ALREADY WHEN UR NEUROSPICY VS. NEUROBLAND PPL
IS LIKE, ALMOST WORSE??
Bc they cant even understand ur phrasing bc its so simple 😭😭😭
◇
Tldr: "Being Neurodivergent means ur a god, confirmed." - says all of Teyvat's denizens
◇
NEXYLAZA.
MY BELOVED.
I AM IN LOVE WITH UR BRAIN.
IF I COULD GIVE IT A HUG I WOULD🫂✨️👏👏👏👏
BC I WAS ALREADY LIKE IN THE BACK OF MY MIND LIKE-
*rubs my little rat gremlin hands together*
"hmHmHMMMM BuT wHaT iF mAYbE yOU reMeMbeREd cReATinG TeyVAT, hmHMHMMMMM"
AND FOR VERBALIZING IT WITHIN BLUNT LANGUAGE AU- !!!!!!!
(one of my favs, if u cant tell)
I would (platonically) kiss you right now dude.
Instead I give this:
♡ ily
And also, I AM GOING TO MAKE A WHOLE POST ABOUT THIS-
MAYBE EVEN A FANFIC, OR ONE SHOT AHDHAKFHSKLAAL-

Recent TV Roundup
Soooo much television to watch…so litttle time (but I find it)…maybe this is the year I watch 100 TV shows
QL Shows
🎹First Note Of Love (Ep 2-6): it’s happeningggg they’re bonding…👀 Orca showed up and I’m immediately obsessed like whole aura and whatever is going on with the manager…all in all a great string of episodes and every time we see a flashback with the brother my heart aches…okkkk okkk episode 6 and I am officially hooked on the show I am really liking the exploration of grief and I like the side couple a lot…the preview for next episode?? I’m deceased
☀️I Hear The Sunspot (Ep 10-11): I think if I view this show away from the lens of BL and more of a coming of age, I see the vision a bit more…I just feel like the romance was going at a slow but sure pace and now has stalled…which has hindered my enjoyment slightly…I like the scenes between Taichi and his grandpa a lot though…also I been saying Maya is now shifting to just confusion as to like “why would you like this man of all people what is wrong with you” but her character doesn’t feel crucial enough in the story to get her own POV episode, although I do want to know more about her and have her be a more fleshed out character
💄Cosmetic Playlover (Ep 3-8)(end): this show was simple and cute…and felt very Japanese BL lol but I don’t know how much I’ll be thinking about it after like a week or two…like it’s not a bad show it just didn’t make a huge impression on me. (7/10)
🦜Takaras Treasure (Ep 10-11)(end): eeeeeeeeeeeee I loved this ending so much! Then opening up and Takara basically just showing how much he loves Taishin is just so beautiful and I hope they live a happy life together ❤️❤️❤️ thank god we got the special episode so I can be with them a bit more…ok the special was also cuteeeee I don’t think I liked it as much as the finale because I do feel like Takaras character became like a lil back to his closed off self but overall I liked this lil show a lot (9/10)
🐢Monster Next Door (Ep 5-6): boyfriend era? Soon? Okkk! This episode leaned a lil too much in the « fluff sequences with no point » at points but it still works for this plot because at the end of the day it’s not super complicated….okkkk this series is still cute and I like how the two mains talk to each other and sometimes do mess up…it’s just like a warm comforting tea of a series at this point and I’m excited to see what the boyfriend era will be
🤝Affair (Ep 1-2): toxic yuri? Possessive jealous behaviour? Cheating? I guess! I’m in and ready for the meds that will be this series…anddd we already have the obligatory GL bath scene (in episode 2?)…and I’m so sorry but I have never seen such unhinged « platonic » behaviour in my life…also I kept seeing comments on YouTube of people being so annoyed that we are getting so many scenes with Ek but like…I disagree? I think yeah obviously the main reason people are here is for the girls but like the show has a plot outside of just them like fight-flirting with each other so to me it makes sense to focus at least a bit on the guy that presumably one of them will be cheating on? Idk
🔙 Reverse 4 U (Ep 1): im so excited this show is on Netflix! And the first episode was cute and a great set up! I like how they showed their powers and really set up the sibling bond well…also I’m biased but I love Four but I am a simp for mean lesbians whoops
🕓4 Minutes (Ep 6-7): we’ll welll welll they were all trash in the original timeline…no notes….i hope everyone gets the revenge/justice they deserve and that Tonkla gets away with murder lol…I’m hoping next episode we see how Tyne gets shot since we now have Greats storyline…also who tf is that woman in the gallery with great….still many questions to answer in the finale but I like how we’re also getting answers and everything is making somewhat sense like I see where the seeds planted earlier are coming back up! I legit have no idea how this will end buttttt I’m thinking it’ll be like an open ending..and lowkey think they will both die and stay in the fix it timeline forever together lol
👔The Trainee (Ep 10-11): wow the discourse on this episode is something else…I never really saw Judy and Bahmee being developed as a lasting relationship and now I see why…I’m sort of disappointed she ended up with Tae again I was really hoping for her choosing to be single and both of them growing but….alas….and to be fair I have been her lowkey (minus the cheating) so I get itttt. Jane and Ryan continue to be cute and I like the way each intern is going through a journey and growing as an individual character outside the relationships…okkk one more episode to go and I like how they reflected on like how each trainee has grown and have given more of Jane’s backstory and how he ended up the way he did…I also like that some of the Ryan/Jane relationship progression was done off screen but discussed like them having 1 hour phone calls…like their relationship is just a good progression…I’m mostly just annoyed by how little characters développement they have Judy like she really was just there for? What?
🥭The Loyal Pin (Ep 5-6): welpppp the ending of this episode was wild…I like how they Pin acknowledges like…it would be really hard for them to be together (impossible even) and just the angst and yearning that comes from their situation is done really well but you can also just feel how attached they are to each other…omg this episode was so romantic and you can just feel how much they love each other…guess they could only give us one episode of that though before they are separated again 😭…also I have a weird theory that Prik is going to end up marrying the other brother but idk that seems kinda unlikely
🍫Happy of the end (Ep 1): definitely a more intense story from Japan…I definitely want to continue but maybe when I’m in a different headspace or will maybe binge this one when it comes out
📓On1y 1 (Ep 1-2): ok thé gifs on Tumblr got me…so far, this is setting up the story really well and I like the push and pull we are already getting with the two characters…I’m ready for this show to break me lol
🔫Kidnap (Ep 1): idk I’m here…nothing drew me into this toooo much but I feel a bit of the chemistry…I’ll keep watching
🃏Jack and Joker (Ep 1): omfg this show is so wild I love it…I love love love heist media so I’m in fully 100% and also I like the action so far and I love Joker like of course I doooooo
Non-QL Shows
🧛Interview With The Vampire (Ep 2-3): I’m still entertained and I like how complex each character is and I just think Louis is a really compelling character in particular…at the end of the day…imma keep watching
🏠Love Next Door (Ep 5-8): oooofffff this is still good…I think it’s definitely got every trope that has ever existed like we got the exes, we got illness, we got childhood friends to lovers…we got potential cheating like it goes on and on. While I like the romance…I think some of the strongest parts of the show is Seok-Ryus journey with her parents and the weight of the expectations and just a lot of really powerful scenes…based on the reveal in episode 8 I’m hoping for a happy ending 😭 but I also wouldn’t be as mad as other people I’ve seen talk about the show if we don’t get one I think
🏥Hospital Playlist (Ep 5): I think one episode a week is perfect for this show because as much as I like it…an episode feeels really long lol…I like how we learn things about the characters gradually and naturally and as you learn them it sort of makes previous episodes and scenes make sense…also « do you have someone you’re interested in? » « the lord » iconic no notes
☕️Ripley (Ep 3-5): I had to watch multiple episodes because it is heating up! Not the cat being what’s gonna get him caught! These episodes were so delicious the suspense and the way he is going to have to keep covering and covering his tracks now…looking at everyone with suspicion…it’s great
💍No Gain No Love (Ep 1-4): why am I watching so many KDramas at the moment? Who knows….but I just felt drawn to this one…and I’m a sucker for a fake marriage plot line so here I am…so far this show is pretty decent. I already know I probably won’t like the second couple…but the main storyline is fun…and I do feel like it’s exploring some interesting themes around women and the small ways in which being a woman in the workplace and in life is difficult and just how women can have desires and it shouldn’t be something to shame (although this show is sort of taking that as a punchline to a joke rn hoping it’ll change as it goes on)
🩲Don’t want no old man’s underpants (Ep 8): this show continues to slay like the festival was so cute and just some good old father and son bonding and like actually listening to each other it’s just really nice to see…I really love this lil show
