#I am not holding Inazuma in either hand

[kitsunabi]

learning that there is a "harbinger interested in machines" who went through the effort of stopping their own planned takeover of the Steambird paper just bc they realized the Traveler's involvement and apologizing to the Traveler by giving up their planted person via traumatizing them till they were catatonic (1), removing their tongue (2) and stuffing the apology note to replace it while leaving their still-alive body at the courthouse (3) was not in my cards for fontaine ngl

Always remembering you - Genshin x GN reader

Characters: Wanderer, Itto, Kaveh, Neuvillette

Summary: You have to leave for a long period of time. What do they do after it? (Basically them missing you)

A/N: I am alive!! Sorry for not posting in a while. Honestly I haven't been very motivated to write but I randomly got this idea so I hope yall like it! (I edited some parts and typos I noticed so hopefully now it is better :)

Wanderer has no need for things as transitory and insignificant as the attention of others— specially if it comes from an human being— so what makes you believe that you would be an exception?

It's been decades since he last sought companionship after all. The only reason why he asked you to accompany him is to complete the tasks Nahida assigned him. It is just easier for you to do all the hard work instead of him. Don't try to read between the lines.

Yes. Of course it was necessary to stop in the middle of Sumeru's forest to contemplate the surroundings for the past hour. It is part of his job to ensure that there are no potential dangers near the city.

Actually, the fact that the path you were taking was blocked by a tree that mysteriously collapsed in front of you due to a strong blown of wind has nothing to do with him. Why would you think he did that in the first place? You're imagining things.

The only reason he's holding your hand right now is so you don't get lost or delay him by this absurdly long new path he's chosen. Yes, it's clearly the only option you two have, so don't complain and keep walking.

But if you need a moment to rest he won't refuse. And if at any point you decide to lean your head on his shoulder, he won't push you away either. Just don't get used to this, he only allows it because he knows how fragile human bodies are and he prefers to avoid Nahida's scolding for leaving you in the middle of nowhere.

And if you still have doubts, that's right, the fact that all these things happen after not being able to talk to you all week is totally a coincidence.

Itto, on the other hand, doesn't seem to know the word discretion.

What do you mean you have another important commission to do? But didn't you just finished one yesterday? How about you join him in a beetle tournament instead? Or maybe you can spend time with the gang? Come on, he knows you can't refuse this unique opportunity!

Hmm? That you always spend time with them..? But this time is different! This time they will do something so different and so incredible that you just can't loose! Trust him. Arataki Itto always keep his word!

And it is just that it seems like the entire universe is sending you signals to spend time with him. From Itto posters that mysteriously appear on paper airplanes to his name in the alphabet soup you eat.

But if all that is not enough to convince you that it is the destiny the one putting you together, somehow you both end up meeting multiple times a day. No matter where you look, he will be there.

Do you have to collect different flowers from Inazuma for your commission? It turns out that floristry is one of his hidden talents! Do you have to give them to someone? How curious! He was just talking to that same person! Are you saying he is brothering them? Of course not! He would never do that... On purpose.

There's no point in questioning him, somehow he always has an excuse- (although it doesn't mean they make sense). It's only until you look up at the sky and see fireworks with Itto's face, his signature, and the words "I miss you" that he finally tells you the truth behind all the coincidences that has happened during the day.

However, the moment does not last long, because shortly afterwards different guards come running to capture Itto for alleged harassment and "illegal use" of fireworks without authorization. Complete defamation if you ask him.

At the end, you and Kuki have to visit him in jail and take care of all the paperwork for the damage him and the gang caused. But hey, at least that means his plan worked?

Kaveh directly doesn't seems able to function properly.

Don't get him wrong, he knows better than anyone how hard it must be for you to be so busy. After all, he has found himself in the same situation as you multiple times in the past.

It's just that he had never noticed the influence you have on his life until that moment, where instead of having breakfast together at the same place as always he finds himself eating preheated noodles from the microwave.

For the first time in a long time he's having trouble concentrating on his work, unable to finish the commission he's been putting off for the last week— not so surprisingly— the same amount of time since you traveled to Fontaine.

Because every time he looks at the paper on the desk he can't stop his hand from drawing sketches of you, his mind clouded with questions about your safety and how you are doing.

Kaveh doesn't really know how to control that feeling so he does the only thing he knows in situations like this; Overwork himself. Going from basically doing nothing all week to creating almost a month's worth of work in a few days.

Of course, it doesn't take much for his friends to notice, trying to reason with him more than once. However, if there is something to recognize from Kaveh it is his stubbornness, reassuring them that everything is completely under control.

It's only until he ends up falling asleep during a conversation with Tighnari that he decides to take action into his own hands, sending you a letter telling you about the situation because your boyfriend can barely stay awake during the day and has been living of coffee.

And despite his reproaches towards Tighnari, he can't help but feel glad the moment you return to Sumeru a few days earlier than anticipated, updating you on every little detail that happened while you were gone and sleeping for almost a full day no long after. He may thank Tighnari later.

Unlike the others, Neuvillette feels totally fine after you left.

Of course he notice your absence and perhaps your name has appeared in his mind more than three times in the day but that's all. There is no need to worry about it, Take all the time you need.

He continues with his routine as always. He is also a very busy person so he doesn't think a lot of it. He's just walking around in the same place where you met because he's taking a short break. Nothing more than that.

In fact, you might even be able to see him ordering at the same coffee shop where you had your first date, sitting at the same table he sat at back then. But that isn't related to this situation, so please continue what you are doing.

But if you notice how Fontaine has fallen into heavy rain this last month, he will just reassure you that it's completely normal. Probably is just the weather that hasn't been stable lately. Nothing to worry about. Everything is under control as it always has been.

Yet, even if he manages to fool himself, all the melusines notice the way his gaze wanders from the documents on his desk to the empty seat next to him. His eyes shining every moment he hears the door of his office open just to met with the disappointment in them when he realizes it's not you on the other side.

Because despite his attempts to distract himself, it's simply impossible when every place he goes has some memory of you. He knows you won't be away for long so why does he feel like something is missing when you're not around?

Melusines try to talk with him, even requesting help to Furina, but it doesn't seems to be an end of the countless rains that has been occurring since you left.

He will just continue denying his feelings over and over, completely oblivious of them and the attempts of others to cheer him up.

It's hard for Neuvillette to understand the reason for his the emptiness he feels, but when he sees you once again he can't help but notice the great sense of relief that comes with you, immediately asking you how you are doing and making sure you feel welcome.

Maybe with the pass of the time he will be able to come in terms with his feelings but for now all he wants to do is to spend more time with you.

sumeru ver

FEAT… thoma, itto, heizou

SYNOPSIS... your poor boyfriend is so, so tired, and all he wants is to go to bed and cuddle...

a gentle hand rubs circles on your back, the connected figure following you as you make your way to the bedroom. they're exhausted, and the bed had never looked so inviting. the two of you undress hastily, eager to get into more comfortable clothes and climb under the covers. it seemed like it had been a long day for everyone in inazuma, and so the two of you, and everyone else in the region, were out like a light...

✧ thoma.

after a long day working at the kamisato estate, thoma wants nothing more than for you to be in his arms. he crashes onto the bed, and pulls you down with him, trapping you on top of him in a tight hug.

"stop moving..."

he mumbles into your hair, squeezing you until you give in and wrap your own arms around his torso. you feel a him sigh in satisfaction, taking in the scent of your shampoo and the warmth radiating from you.

gently, you prop yourself up with a hand on either side of his head; oh, how pretty he looks beneath you... his eyes, full of love, looking up at you and admiring your features. he thinks you look so beautiful. shifting your weight onto one hand, you lift the other to brush a few stray hairs out of his face, all while maintaining eye contact. thank god you already turned the lights off, otherwise he'd be able to see the blush growing on your cheeks.

it's these intimate moments that make you fall in love with thoma all over again, and it's thoma that makes these moments so magical...

✧ itto.

itto, boisterous as ever, runs into the bedroom and jumps onto the bed with his arms and legs stretched out, quick to turn over and hold his arms out once again to catch you when you jump on top of him. it took a lot of persuasion for you to agree to this the first time, since you were afraid you'd hurt him, but after some persistent nagging, you finally gave in and now it's become somewhat of a routine.

before you know it, itto has moved you around in the bed until you're in the perfect position: right in front of him with your back against his chest. a sudden warmth washes over you as he pulls up the covers and kicks around slightly. finally, his arms snake around your waist, grabbing one of you hands and resting it beneath his on your stomach, intertwining his fingers with yours

the two of you lie like that for hours, just talking. obviously, there were some playfights and tickling (you are cuddling itto, after all), but you were quick to get back to spooning after being exposed to the cold air outside the duvet.

"love you"

the oni murmurs out mere seconds before he falls asleep. he does this every night, always making sure the first and last words you hear everyday are "i love you"... or just "love you" if he's feeling especially tired.

"i love you too..."

✧ heizou.

it's been a long day of solving mysteries and apprehending criminals, so when heizou finally arrives home, he wastes no time crawling into bed beside you. normally, you'd wait for him before letting yourself fall asleep, but he's running especially late today, jamming his keys in the front door just as the clock strikes 3:00 AM.

fatigued and drowsy, the detective clumsily throws his belongings on the couch and begins removing outer layers and accessories while making his way to you, discarding them on the floor without a care in the world, telling himself he'll clean it up later. by the time he slides in through the crack in the bedroom door, he's left in just his black under-vest and hakama shorts, which he's quick to remove in favour of more comfortable clothes.

"i'm home"

he sighs out, lifting up part of the covers and carefully sitting on the edge of the bed. you re-adjust yourself as the mattress dips slightly, but continue to sleep soundly. heizou is relieved; the last thing he wants was for you to wake up so late in the night.

finally being able to lie back, your boyfriend stretches his arms out to you, shuffling closer until he can finally reach your sleeping figure. he gently rolls you over to face him and nestles his head against your chest, tangling his legs with yours as he pulled you even closer. with the strength he had left, he guided one of your arms to rest across him, and sighed in delight as you instinctively hugged him close. only when he was finally in your arms could he truly relax, closing his eyes and giving in to the fatigue that'd been weighing him down all day...

"goodnight, love. i'll tell you all about my day tomorrow"

My Favorite Actor Is…

Fem!Reader

Summary: Infatuation over a film star. It’s a very common thing to have happen. There’s not much to be done over it besides talking about said infatuation over that actor. And if there is jealousy to be had at least handle it as healthy as possible.

Words: 975

AN: I wrote almost all of this on my phone as I was dealing with the holidays when it was written. Just when I thought I would have time to myself to edit the fic and make sure things made sense, I got a new puppy. So it was either edit the fic and be unsure if things made sense or get help. Thanks @milkstore. You are the best. Puppies are tiring but very cute.

“Ayaka had me and Thoma go with her to see a film earlier today,” Y/N explained as she poured herself and Ayato a cup of tea. The two of them were still warming up after coming back to the estate from Inazuma City. The winter air had been so chilly with flurries landing on them but not sticking to the ground.

“Did the three of you enjoy yourselves?” He took a towel trying to dry off his hair. Even though it was flurries, being out there long enough meant that two of them were a little soaked. They had hurried in quickly changing into something dry leaving just hair affected by the snow.

“Yes. It was quite exciting. But I did have one gripe with it.” Ayato could hear the disappointment in her voice changing so fast from the happy one she had started the conversation with.

“What would that be?” He left the towel wrapped around his shoulders to avoid his hair dripping. Ayato grabbed the teacup and took a sip embracing the warmth it brought him.

“There was a new actor in the film. He had the most gorgeous eyes but only had a few lines of dialog.” Y/N rolled her eyes before she frowned. “It was an absolute waste of perfect talent. And to make matters worse, that's the only film he's in.”

Ayato remained silent before letting out a single word in judgment, “Oh.” Now he wasn't one to let jealousy affect him. That was a silly emotion filled with insecurities that he didn't have. But to say he wasn't the slightest bit affected by her words was a lie. One that he would tell because who was he to dump feelings he should process on his own onto his lover.

Any understanding of his emotions was ignored. “Ayaka had told me he even turned down a role that would have given him more screen time. It’s such a crime really. What I would give to see him on screen for those two hours rather than just two minutes.” He could practically see the hearts in her eyes. 

Ayato didn’t think there would come a day where he’d be annoyed even if it was just slightly by the look she had in her eyes. There wasn’t anything to feel threatened by though. If she had to stand by his side while someone tried to openly flirt with him while he and Y/N were holding hands, he could at the least let her fantasize about someone she would never meet.

“Maybe you’ll get lucky and he will get cast in another movie.” He did his best to remain engaged in the conversation. When he looked down at his cup filled with the most gorgeous green tea he hated the reflection that looked back. 

“I wish. Sadly he’s too busy with other projects to even think about acting.” Ayato enjoyed the small victory he had gained even though Y/N was upset at the fact she was telling him. Who knew her love of the arts would betray him?

“Well just be glad that he was able to appear in this film.” He comforted her. Maybe the lack of rest was getting to him if such a disgusting emotion as jealousy was trying to make an appearance.

“I am. I do wish I could at least meet the actor and tell him how well his performance was. Thoma said you’d be able to make that happen.” Y/N had placed an empty teacup on the table. He hadn’t even noticed that she was drinking it this entire time.

All Ayato knew was Thoma who he thought was filled with so much loyalty had betrayed him unknowingly earlier. Now he had to compete for his wife’s attention with some mystery actor that he would do his best to never let her meet. “If they are busy it might be easier to get an autograph.” He hoped that Ayaka would be okay with him using her as a way to talk through these emotions later.

“Really? But even Ayaka agreed that he would find the time to talk.” Y/N spoke with a frown that hid the smirk she really had. Not that Ayato could notice at the moment.

How do you ground your adult younger sister and man who grew up almost like a second sibling to him? “That’s not guaranteed dear. It’s a bit of wishful thinking. Ayaka and Thoma don’t even know the man. Who even is this actor anyway?” His composure was finally beginning to break. He wasn’t proud of it.

Y/N laughed. “I didn’t even tell you the movie we saw. I’m sorry. The movie was The Two Musketeers.” It wasn’t often that Ayato felt embarrassed. “The actor was a man named Kamisato Ayato. You sure I won’t be able to meet him?”

It was at moments like this that he was reminded why he and Y/N had wed. It was also moments like this that reminded him one of the reasons they wed was that they both enjoyed a bit of mischief and teasing each other now and then. It was something that lately he had been catching her off guard with. And here he was getting a taste of his own medicine at the moment.

“Y/N.”

“Yes.” She answered with a laugh. 

“I would prefer if you would try to not make me jealous of myself.” Ayato requested with a sigh.

“You know I was wondering when you would catch on.”

“It’s been a long day. A long week.” He explained. She could see the tiredness on his face.

“Why don’t we get my favorite actor to bed then instead of trying to hold a conversation about the day?”

“That would be smart.”

Aranara Mafia AU

-> Pt. 2

In Liyue, because of the recent famine, everything's also been collapsing, slowly but surely.

Ever since the Impostor disappeared, Liyue's trading ports have been closed due to how unstable the waters have been. Many suspect that it's a punishment from The Divine one for failing to capture the Impostor.

A few weeks since all ports in Liyue have shut down, the millelith started reporting more frequent robberies, mostly from small shops.

Oddly enough, the only things that went missing were either seeds for various fruits and vegetables, or fertilizer. Sometimes even mora in large quantities.

Because of the lack of seeds and fertile land, fresh food is now a rare delicacy. The common folk are forced to eat nothing but dried grain and snow.

Today is another ordinary day in Wangsheng Funeral parlor. Due to malnutrition everywhere, Wangsheng Funeral Parlor has been making quite a lot of mora.

Until one day, they receive an odd request from a customer. This customer in particular was from a group of anonymous people. But during these hard times, mora is mora, so they comply.

The request was to go to the Chasm, at midnight, around Cinnabar cliff, with 3 wooden coffins. So HuTao and Zhongli went there and arrived exactly at 12 AM.

Once they reached there, there was no one..? They tried searching the area a few times, but found nothing so HuTao went back to Liyue Harbour first, then after around 45 minutes Zhongli gave up and planned on going back to Liyue

His plan was interrupted as a bush started rustling near him. And from the bush emerged a small.. radish..? It was wearing sunglasses and a suit, smoking a cigar while holding a gun aimed directly at his head.

"Dig. Now."

Zhongli was slightly flabbergasted, about to disarm the small radish when another, and another, and another

Until around 8 popped out, all armed with guns.

"Hmph. Like I said, dig now, or else." The one smoking the cigar said. And so, Zhongli dug 3 holes, wondering if he's dreaming or erosion's finally taking a toll on his eyesight.

The other 7 radishes dragged out 3 dead millelith soldiers, putting each in a coffin one by one. At this point, Zhongli didn't know what to do at this point, he was confused, slightly scared, and more flabbergasted than ever. If he told anyone else about this, they'd send Zhongli to a mental asylum (if they exist in Teyvat) or laugh it off, thinking he was a silly old man with silly stories.

Once the radishes finished pushing the coffins into the recently dug holes, they walked away. The first radish, that's still smoking his cigar, hands Zhongli a leaf with a weird drawing on it and leaves a sack on the ground.

Meanwhile, in Vanarana

You should've kept your phone safely in your room.

If you had done that, then maybe the aranara wouldn't have tried making a gun.

Maybe they wouldn't have succeeded and made more.

Maybe the 3 millelith who were patrolling near Sumeru's entrance would still be alive.

Or maybe, the aranara wouldn't be attempting to make a full-blown nuclear bomb.

The aranara dance around you, giving you flowercrowns and thanking you for the knowledge you(r phone) gave them, now they're able to defend themselves against marana and evil nara around.

-> Pt. 2.5

-> Pt. 3

Should I make the next chapter about the Aranara testing nuclear weapons on Inazuma?

Also the aranara smoking a cigar is Arabalika :]

Afraid of nuthin'

Warning spoilers alert well until Heizou's hangout event and itto story quest

Ps. If u aren't a fan of tickling and friendly things that don't seem more your type and less bizarre, feel free to scroll down... thank you and enjoyyyy my loveliees!

(Lee!heizou and ler!Itto - featuring oopse... *clamps a hand on my mouth* It's a secret and a surprise ending)

***

"Heizouu!"

Startled by the booming voice outside of shimura's restaurant, the young detective Heizou almost spills his tea. It's the third time this month, at least... that Itto gets him to react so differently.

"Itto old chap... Maybe it's better to lower your volume down in public places. " Heizou squints with an assuring expression when the oni steps in almost slipping into a crashing speed at the fragile looking restaurant.

"Oopse, you got it my hombre," he salutes now, walking along with Heizou, who's in fact on his break but rather scavenging for some new intriguing mysteries under Sango's nose.

"Hey buddy," Itto speaks after a few minutes of strolling, probably out if boredom.

"Yes?"

"I'm interested... every instant I see ya, especially during the test of courage," Itto gestures comically as they walk outside Inazuma a bit "you don't seem scared of anything... right?"

Tricky... if he said yes, it would mean Itto will start a troublesome game of finding Heizou's fear, leading to trifling conclusions. Then if he says no... and admit he is. He'll have to spill the impossible. Truthfully, not even he knows what he's afraid... maybe when there will be a day that mysteries won't exist?

"Um... well Itto, I am a human so it might be dramatic to say I'm not scared..."

Either way as Heizou deduced Itto intends to investigate his fear.

Chuckling now "Well, say you are more fearless than an oni, but you are a wee human so I bet you are scared of something..."

Sighing Heizou shrugs and it took quite a while for Itto to even analyse and figure out anything.

Honestly, Heizou's job is still with him himself... no one can take his job. At least the traveller gladly isn't despite having exceptional skills.

"Maybe like me! Is it beans?"

"I'm a human not an Oni..."

Groaning even more Itto pouts a bit. Chuckling at the childish display of the large but kid oni, Heizou professes "Alright Itto, trust me... I'm afraid of somethings but I am not as brave as an oni... does that feel better?"

Oni grins but slightly accepting it. He turns to Heizou and then pokes side. "If I would say you certainly need to eat m-"

"H-hey!" Heizou arcs his back from the touch and backs off, tittering uneasily he states "Itto... space please..."

Curious oni is a dangerous oni, Heizou knew he's skilled to note that about him. Another poke but Heizou prepares by staggering back only to land on his back.

"Heizou? Are you perhaps ticklish?" A look of genuine delight in the discovery.

"H-huh why would you say that I-Itto?" Barely making eye contact.

The oni shrugs but helps him up and slightly offers a playful snicker, "ahh well my compadre you better watchout cause there is someone even scarier than an oni..."

"If you are referring to ghost-"

"Those too but!" He emphasises with a smirk, making Heizou connect the dots before Itto could get to the point. Gently trying to slip away, he stepped back, but Itto caught him without an effort by the arm holding it up as he began his conversation.

"You know who that guy is?"

Gulp, this is not good... if this oni really plans to tickle him, it's the end of his day.

Tactic one, distraction...

"Ah, look at the time... uh... my breaks over Itto... hehe, I better head ba-ahahack!" He poked his ribs now.

Failed... abort! Abort!

"Shikanoin Heizou, you will get a visit from the tickle monster!!" As if he never heard a single word from Heizou since that topic. Fingers immediately dug into his bare sides, beginning his attack properly.

Maybe he should consider a change of clothing since Lumine enjoys poking him here and there.

"Ahaha wahait aha, maybe hehe, I am ticklish buhuhut... ihihits nohohot ahaha feheheeear!" Pushing his hands off slightly averting his eyes to see if there's a crowd watching him struggle to escape a child oni.

Itto's strength is commendable when he pins both his small wrist above his head "Heizou, look here bro, fear of tickles is something everyone has tho some tend to enjoy it...buuut" his fingers lightly tracing his stomach now heizou feels determined to admit he's got a fear of the tickle monster -or rather tickle oni.

"Well you are a detective... might spill a thing or two... right?"

"Aahahahas ihihif a lihihittle tihihickling cahahahan dohoho thahahat!?? Noho, sir!" Heizou's right arm kept pushing him away though with no success.

"Oooooh" mistake, big mistake Heizou realised too late. Too late! He squeaks "NO! Wait!"

Bursts in immediate laughter when Itto tickles his under arms. Itto nods casually "I see, so you are not afraid of the tickle monster making you spill the tea... my bro, if you promise to say the word Onikabuto I'll let you go... but that means you will submit to this little interrogation method..."

Since when did this Oni became soo... evil? Or bad? Heizou was too busy struggling the tickles that are total torture under his arms. He shakes his head "SEHEHERIOUSLY IHIHIHITTOO NOHOHO MORE GAHAHAHAMES... LEHEHET MEHEHE UP!"

"Armpits huh?" Itto snickers enjoying this waaaay more than the victim. Heizou can't even tickle back due to the struggles he wasted. "Well tell me what's the password! Come on little guy... I'll let you go if you say that... hmmm?"

His fingers slowly crawl down, making Heizou giggle but laughing less, as they remain on their sides still tickling. He squirms and yelps "Ack! Ihihittooo! Plehehease!"

"Begging? Alright not so tough now wittle detective... you sure are cute for someone who's not afraid of nuthin'!"

Itto won't shut up. Is this for real? Is Heizou the detective resistant to any torture gonna go submissive against tickling? No way...

Heizou squeals now feeling the fingers crawl up again "AHAHA haha whahahahat thehehe?"

"Incyyy wiiincyyyy Oniii went uuup the ticklish sideees!"

"Nohohohot thahahaaat ohohoho myyy ahahahrchoons!" Heizou blushes furiously. Especially when Itto is singing this version very loudly for the whole town to hear. No! Just yhat alone is intolerable!

"AHAHAH ok ok!!!! Noho more singing!" He panics when the fingers swiftly reached his armpits not even tickling "OK! EEEHEHE IHIHI UHUHUHU OHOHONIKABUTOOO! I SAID IT I SAID IT!"

Itto burst into laughter now hitting his own thigh "Ohooo my! Yohou can't stand thahat can ya!"

"Uhuhunfair... it wahas embarrassing..."

"But you had fuuuun compadre??"

Looking at the excited oni he sighs with a giggle "OK ok... I did,"

"It certainly looked like it"

The familiar windy light voice makes Heizou's blood run cold. He turns to see the anemo vision holder Kazuha.

"K-k-kazuha! What b-brings you he-hear?" Heizou stammers immediately, blushing more at the sight of his former target and now close friend standing there with a fond smile. Smiling even eider Kazuha gestures to the crux fleet. "A trip back to my home again, of course, wanderers may wander, but i also wonder..." leaning forward over Heizou's face."What my dear friend is doing, as a detective that's intriguing..."

Itto applauds with sudden excitement but also getting their attention "My bro your poetic!"

"Why thank you... I see you discovered my friends weakness,"

Itto chuckles "Lil dude be going 'I ain't afraid of nuthin' so I found out he's scared of the tickle oni!"

Kazuha's airy light laughter suddenly draws the wind. "Whyy, he's adorable, isn't he... squealing at his age...?"

"Kaaazuuu, please..." Heizou grabs his hand to stop him, "Itto let's give Kazuha a tour, and we'll introduce you to his heroic actions. " he pulls him away instantly to avoid further vociferous teasing on him.

They were already leading ahead, and Kazuha poked him teasingly about the initial incident, making the detective more embarrassed.

Meanwhile...

"Waaaait..." Itto still ponders and murmurs."Such a familiar nameee, Kazu... kazuha... Kaeda... oh!" and then he runs after them suddenly, recalling"

"Mutso no hitotachi!!!! Waaaaait, I want to fight ya too! Wait, uppp!!!"

(A/N:Sorry about the spelling. I can't remember it... the end, thanks for reading)

kaeya

about us: the traveller

i must say, i was rather surprised that the traveller was the first one chosen to be a vessel — at first i had assumed it was merely because of their status as an outlander, but now…. well, last i checked, i was from teyvat.

about us: the creator

friendship lv. 4

sometimes i wonder why vessels are even utilized at all, in truth. i mean, what use does the divine have for a mortal man? i understand it’s not my place to question it, but… *sigh*

about you: worship

friendship lv. 6

thank you. truly, thank you. i’m not sure words could describe everything i feel, but… perhaps a night at the altar would suffice? please, just say the word. i will be there. for you.

thoma

about us: the traveller

the traveller? … they’ve done a lot of good for inazuma, that’s for sure, along with the other nations. i’m a bit intrigued about the teapot they always carry around, but milady says it’s some kind of important artifact… either way, i’m certainly curious!

about us: the creator

friendship lv. 4

sometimes it hits me just how lucky i was to make it to inazuma after the storm, and how easily i could have died at sea, never to be seen again… whenever that happens, i find its best not to think about it. i was blessed by the creator, and thinking over why i received it won’t get me anywhere.

about you: worship

friendship lv. 6

while i’m not sure what use my housekeeping skills would be to you, i place every other talent i have at your disposal. whether my sword or my shield, or even just to be somebody to talk to, i would happily accept any task you give me. it would be an honor to serve you.

diluc

about us: the traveller

i have little to say about the traveller that hasn’t already been said. while at first i may have thought their kindness was only wrought from the hands of a god… i can see now that i was wrong, and that is what truly matters.

about us: the creator

friendship lv. 4

when the winds blow hard around the winery and rain pelts the windows… it’s easy to forget everything good in the world. it’s easy to slip into a mindset of helplessness, when even going outside feels forbidden by nature… nonetheless, it’s important to recognize the fault in that belief. rain nourishes the earth, and wind drives windmills. even i have to remind myself of this fact on occasion.

about you: worship

friendship lv. 6

it would be a lie to say that i don’t hold any influence over mondstat, but it wouldn’t be to say that you take priority over any project i have my hands on. whether it’s in the middle of the weinlesefest, or the peak of the summer season, please never hesitate to come to me for anything. you gave me everything i have, and i’d be a fool not to try and return the offer in whatever way i can.

bonus!!

noelle

about the creator: diligence

the creator? o-of course i follow them! what gave you the impression that i didn’t? oh, am i not doing enough? i always dust the shrine at the knights’ headquarters, i say my prayers before bedtime and every meal, i never miss a service at the cathedral… tell me, what am i missing? the last thing i want is to fail at my most important task—… of course it’s most important! being a maid comes secondary to the divine, as everything else does.

candace

about the creator: deserted

it’s easy to think that the desert is neglected by the divine, but i believe the opposite is true. were we truly abandoned, we wouldn’t have the oases, nor the henna berries, nor anything else that brought life forth and helped it thrive. if you ask me, the belief that the desert was forgotten about is what drove the akademiya to such extremes… *sigh* it’s such a pity.

Winter in Inazuma reminded him of home. 

Thoma spent much of his time in the winter months, enjoying the crisp air that never dropped below freezing. When you lived so close to the sea, it was always just a bit too warm for his taste. 

Everything was still so alive and so colorful. Years later, he still didn't know what to think about it. He missed the white, puffy snow that looked like clouds had fallen to the ground and his childhood friends that used to run between grape vines and throw snowballs with him. He missed the cocoa made by Miss Adelinde and getting snowed in, as well as the trip back to the city when his father came to pick him up. 

Wintertime, no matter what it looked like where he was, made him nostalgic. 

He loved the Kamisato siblings and will forever be grateful for everything they’ve done for him, but he just wanted to visit. See the snow again. Remember what that childhood joy was like, just for a few days. 

“I can hear you thinking.”

Thoma smiles, turning to face you. It was late and he should be sleeping, considering he woke up with the sun every morning. However, he couldn’t seem to get his mind to quiet down. 

“I’m sorry, (Y/N),” he laughs, brushing his hand over your cheek. “Go to sleep.”

You shake your head and adjust yourself so you sit up a little further. “Talk to me. What’s got you thinking so hard?”

He sighs, leaning his head against your chest. “I…I miss home. And I love it here! I just–”

You place a finger over his lips, hushing his worries. “You don’t have to defend yourself. You miss Mondstadt, I understand. It’s okay.”

He sighed again. You’d always been incredibly understanding, but he was still afraid you'd be upset with him for some reason. “Are you sure? I promise I love you and I love being here and–”

He stops talking when you lean in to kiss him, smiling against your lips. Your hand comes up to hold his face so he leans gently into the touch. 

“Thank you,” he whispers, nudging his nose against yours. 

“You have nothing to thank me for. Do you feel a little better?”

“Much, thank you.”

You smile and lay back, pulling him down with you. He laughed as he fell into you, getting comfortable in laying on your chest. 

“(Y/N)?” he asks, looking up at you from his quite cozy place curled up next to you. 

“What, my love?”

He smiles again. “I love you.”

**

“Lord Kamisato, you called?”

Thoma poked his head in Ayato’s office, trying not to interrupt him. While they were friends, he still tried his hardest to show the respect that he should to him. 

“Ah, yes. Come in,” he said, gesturing for him to sit. “I have an offer for you.”

He slowed his actions, trying to figure out what that was supposed to mean. He closed the door to the office behind him and sat across from his desk.

“You look nervous.”

“I am nervous.”

“Why?”

“I can’t tell if you have a gift for me or you’d like me to try something you cooked.”

Ayato laughed, setting his pen down. “I promise, it’s a gift. I was speaking to (Y/N) the other day, and they expressed they felt like you deserve a vacation.”

“Va–what, vacation? I’m fine, really, don’t worry about it—”

“You didn’t let me finish,” he said rather calmly in comparison to his anxious energy. “I believe a week away from the house would do you some good. As long as you don’t get too terribly seasick…how does a trip to Mondstadt sound?”

His eyes went wide. “Lor– Ayato, you can’t possibly mean it—”

Ayato shook his head, smiling at his excitement. “I mean it, Thoma. You do so much, you deserve some time off, and why not visit your homeland to do so?”

“I–I can’t thank you enough, Ayato—you're certain this is alright?”

Again, he nodded, walking around the desk and offering his hand. “I am, Thoma. I have a friend, you may know Captain Beidou, that is willing to make a pit stop for you. However, she leaves Ritou in two days.”

Thoma, practically shaking in excitement, lunged at him in a hug. “You’re incredible, thank you, Ayato,” he said, squeezing him tight. 

He clapped his shoulder, then gently pushed him off. “And I believe you should get packing.”

His eyes lit up and he ran off. Little did he know, Ayato had yet another trick up his sleep he wouldn’t be sharing with him until he left.

**

Two days passed. After he asked, you agreed to walk Thoma to Ritou to say goodbye. He desperately didn’t want to leave you, but he hadn’t been home since long before the multiple decrees, and he knew it was time to at least visit. He hoped he would visit all of his old friends—it would be a strange difference to see the Ragnvindr brothers after such a long time. 

The two of you arrived at the Alcor. After saying hello to Beidou and bringing all his things onboard, the two of you sat on the dock until it was time for him to leave. 

“What will Inazuma do without their incredible fixer for a week or so?” You teased, squeezing his hand. “The whole nation will crumble!”

He laughed and shook his head at your antics. “You’re not helping the whole ‘I don’t want to leave you’ thing, (Y/N).”

Beidou poked her head over the side of the ship, having caught a little bit of their conversation. “Did they not tell you? Ayato arranged for them to come along!”

Thoma stared for a moment, watching you splutter and say something about how it was supposed to be a surprise! Beidou got a cheeky grin and disappeared below deck again, no doubt to finish preparing for their takeoff. However, a wide smile spread across his face and he turned to face you. 

“Is she serious?” he asked, eyes lighting up at you. When you nodded, he pulled you into a bone-crushing hug and swayed you side to side.

“Need oxygen!” you laughed as he let you go.

He held your face and brought your forehead to his. “I’m so happy you’re coming with me,” he muttered, punctuating his statement with a quick kiss. “And I can’t wait to show you everything.”

You chuckled and kissed him again. “Thank Ayato—he pulled everything together. But I’m glad I’m coming too.”

“Alright lovebirds!” Beidou yelled from the wheel, smiling at the two of them. “Let’s get going—we’re leaving with or without ya!”

Thoma’s grin somehow broadened and he jumped up with you in tow. “Come on!”

[xiaomainlmao]

A/n- Was listening to a royal Cyno playlist when this came to my mind.

----------

"A very special meeting you said, eh? Why am I the only one here then." Your smirk never left your face. You knew exactly what the eremites wanted- a chance at the throne.

"Oh there are a bunch of things I want from you- your life, your position, your body or maybe even your hand," the mercenary stated, and you were already aware the things on his list would be far from normal but this? The audacity! Your patience was already running thin. "Tonight, however, your Highness," he spat your title with pure loathe, "I want to expose your true identity."

"Oh? Are you indicating that I'm hiding my true self? And if so, how will you reveal it I wonder."

"Are you taking this as a joke?" He grit his teeth, controlling his urge to lash out already, knowing that you weren't the worst of fighters.

All this, while you were aware of the many pair of eyes on you. Despite seeming like a near-deserted area, you knew that there were people surrounding you. But you also knew, that only one of the many there was actually going to save you in case things get rough. Only one... that the eremites couldn't have predicted to be there as well.

"Even if you do expose me now, I have nothing to lose. I could die here and our true goal would still be accomplished in the near future. And it is for that very reason, that I, tonight, am not afraid of what you tell the others about me." You pointed towards yourself, a maniacal laughter holding itself in. "What are you going to do? Scream it to the world that this "royal" family is now just a façade? That the original rulers had long since given up the thrown? Hahaha!" You couldn't hold your laughter after all. Something like this makes one look like they're the villain, the antagonist, but when it comes to actual, real life situations, who can decide who's in the right and who deserves to die?

No one! The real world is corrupted and there's no author to control it. And then, there's the blind dogs of the Ayn-al-Ahmer. The Tianquan of Liyue quoted, 'In this human age, we must fight on our strength alone!' But these fools will never understand that, not so long as they believe that their beloved, long gone King Desheret can solve the mysteries of life and death.

Do they really think that the gods even have a chance in the new era anymore? Mondstadt is taken care of by the Knights of Favonious, Liyue has its Qixing, Inazuma with its tri-commission, Fontaine with their judiciary…! And soon, you'll lay down the foundation of the new, evolved Akademiya that uses actual thinking rather than using the Akasha. You were to soon give up your throne in pursuit of an academic evolution either way, what did you have to lose tonight? Even Lesser Lord Kusanali has approved of the upcoming institution and was ready to watch from the sidelines and interfere only when required, just like how the Gods of the other nations were stepping back in the new era. Of course, people would still use their visions and considerer them to be the 'God's favour'. They still prayed to the Gods. But they were also determined to grow stronger as mortals. To let go of the Divine obsession, and be self-reliant. If only these stubborn eremites...

You dodged towards the left, as the eremite punched his right hand right where your face was a second ago. Your hand, that was behind your back this whole time, finally revealed the spear it was hoisting, as the eremite drew his hammer from his back using his left hand. Holding it with both his hands and steadying himself, he aimed at you again, this time, you blocked his blow by placing the polearm between you both. You pushed him backward, spinning the weapon in your arm as you took in your surroundings once more.

A couple more eremites jumped out of their hiding, their weapons aiming for you. You dodged most of them, but there were just too many and you couldn't defend, dodge and fight at the same time. You were running out of breath.

Just as another eremite jumped behind you, his own spear above his head, you saw sparks of purple in the dark night. "Futile!" The eremite got pushed to the side, mid air, as Cyno came forward, alerting the eremites of the General Mahamatra's presence. His ruby eyes pierced through the eremite you had been talking to earlier, before looking towards you and giving you a small nod.

With him here, it was much easier to deal with the eremites. Just as the last of the eremites were left, you got pushed to the ground, two of them towering over you. You held them off with your spear in front of you until Cyno interfered and successfully got rid of them.

He lend you his hand and helped you up. "Can you walk?" "Ah… I think I sprained my ankle." "No worries." With one hand below your legs Cyno lifted you up, supporting your back with his other hand. He looked back to where the eremite leader lay on the ground, growling at the two of you, and he growled back.

Amidst the dying chaos, with some eremites still being confused as to how the General Mahamatra managed to catch up with you while the others wondered why your fighting style was so similar to the General's, Cyno walked off with you in his arms.

NOT THE ANEMO VISION oh god mc is DOUBLE fucked

also i like this modern twist you put on the fic! i have as many questions for faceless ayato as i do the setting of the premise, but for now the only one i'll ask is:

is raiden shogun still ruling over inazuma? mc has an anemo vision so i assume they either have a dead friend or celestia is still around giving people visions

😋 anon

You gently flipped through the cushions, placemats, drawers, and even snuck underneath tables and his bed, still: nothing. The ethereal glow of your memory lens have yet to be found.

With your anemo vision, you swept the dust around the room. Nothing worth noting showed up. Almighty Shogun be bothered– you slip out quick prayers as you wished for your memory lens' safe return.

"AS I HAVE SAID, IT IS VERY MUCH UNLIKELY FOR YOU TO LEAVE ██ HERE." Kamisato Ayato spoke behind you out of the blue, making you flinch. Ghosts tend to move silently without any gravity to ground them– so seeing his face or lack thereof sent an unnecessary shiver down your spine. You stared at him, and the void stared back. "HAVE ███ TRIED ELSEWHERE?"

There's progress, but you can't understand him fully yet.

"No."

"BOLD NOW, ARE ██?" He lightly placed his fingers around your neck. "MAKING THE KAMISATO ESTATE THE STARTING POINT OF ████ SEARCH PARTY."

You've commune with the dead ever since you were a child. This light scare does nothing for you.

"It's the first place that came to mind."

Kamisato Ayato's hand trailed from your neck down to your clavicle in a rather light-hearted manner. His eyes drooped down, closing slowly as a grunt echoed. He must be frowning right now.

"SHOULDN'T █ PLACE LIKE THIS BE YOUR FINAL ███████████?"

"I'll be fine," you laughed. "Anemo vision users don't just die– if anything, it's their friends that do."

Those two lilac eyes looked at you incredulously.

"What? Oh, right. You don't know that joke."

He made a garbled, confused noise.

"It's a meme in the Akademiya nowadays," you continued. "Some researcher, Layla I think, posted something about the correlation of anemo users and having dead friends. It's written as a joke article but some people actually believed it."

"IS ██ NOT TRUE?"

You shook your head.

He hummed. "THE THEORY HOLDS SOME WEIGHT, BUT IT IS TOO ABSTRACT ███ AN ACTUAL RESEARCH TO ████ PLACE."

"You're quite chatty huh, Lord Kamisato."

Kamisato Ayato blinked... And whimpered?

Since you started to hear him clearly, he's been talking to you nonstop without helping you find your lens. His nonexistent assistance had been bothering you for a bit, but you didn't voice out any subtle complaints till now. You didn't expect him to be silent in the first place. It's rare for ghosts to find someone that can understand them.

"NO ONE HAD █████████ ME AS 'CHATTY' BEFORE."

"Well, it's never too late." You whispered as you looked under the table one last time. Giving up, you checked your phone again.

5:01 am.

"Thank you for your time, Lord Kamisato." You smiled cheaply. "But I need to get going– I have a class in an hour."

You stood up, turning your head around the room.

"Lord Kamisato?"

You've been forced out of his domain. It took you a moment to realize you're already outside the estate with something circular and light lying on your palm.

It's a memory lens.

You quirked an eyebrow.

But it's not yours.

I am a Sinner (You are a Saint)

Chapter Two | Scaramouche

Ship: HeiKazuScara

Rating: E

Status: In Progress

Word Count: 3.3k

Description:

“You shall be cast out of the heavenly realm indefinitely.”

Kunikuzushi feels arms grab his own as he is forced to his feet. He struggles, keeping his eyes on his mother only. “Mother! Don’t let them do this!” The guards continue to drag him away, even if it is a struggle. “Mother!” He knows the gate to the human realm is growing closer to him. The more time passes, the less chance he has to escape. But the divine never back out of their decisions…never. He looks to his mother one last time, hoping that she at least looks at him. But her gaze refuses to meet his own.

When he is finally cast out, the air rushing past his entire body, he could only visualize his mother’s pained expression.

He has never felt so alone…

Ao3 Link

Heizou can barely keep his eyes open as he continues to stare at the unknown…whatever it is that is currently sleeping on his couch.  Kazuha has since dozed off, head resting in Heizou’s lap in a way that he initially smiled at.  However, it has been about an hour, and his legs are falling asleep.  So, unfortunately, not as cute anymore.

Shame.

He glances at the clock, confirming that it is far past midnight, a fact that he didn’t want to be true.  He had hoped that their guest would have awoken by now, but alas, the…male has been asleep this entire time.  Heizou groans internally, foreseeing the sheer amount of coffee he is going to be required to consume just to function at work.  It is never a good idea to go to work exhausted, but with his career?  It could get him killed if he’s not careful.

However, he is not about to fall asleep with a stranger in his house, especially when Kazuha is here.  He has seen far too many cases in his lifetime where being trusting can get you murdered, so he refuses to even take the chance.  

When he senses movement, the first thing Heizou does is wake up his boyfriend.  Kazuha grumbles in response, rubbing his eyes as he slowly wakes from whatever dream he was in the middle of, thus showing Heizou yet another adorable action that Kazuha does unintentionally.  However, Heizou shakes his head in an attempt to clear those thoughts from his mind.  Their guest is waking up, that is what is important.

Their guest stirs a little before his eyes shoot open.  Heizou observes how the person sits up quickly before immediately hissing in pain.  The stranger attempts to stand next, predictably falling in a rather ungraceful manner.  Heizou would have laughed if it wasn’t for the situation at hand.  “Who are you?” Heizou asks, carefully keeping a hand wrapped around Kazuha’s arm just in case he needs to push the man to safety.

“Where am I?” The person asks, their voice cracking.  They reach toward their throat, wincing in pain.

“You’re in Inazuma city…well the outskirts of it at least,” Kazuha says, sitting up.  Heizou assumes Kazuha did such an action to view the person easier, as it is something Heizou would do.  

The stranger widens their eyes, looking at both men in a way that Heizou could only describe as a mix of panic and dismay.  “I’m on earth?”

Heizou immediately has to push the idea away that the person in front of him is an alien.  He doubts they are…but that doesn’t stop him from thinking about it at first.  “What is your name?” Heizou rephrases his previous question, yet receives no response once more.

“I didn’t…why.  Why did this happen?” The stranger rambles on, much to the confusion of both Kazuha and Heizou as neither party understands the context.  “I wanted to help…”

“Help with what?” Kazuha asks gently, reaching out to the stranger in an attempt to hold their hand, only as a means of comfort, but is greeted with the stranger jerking away from him.  “What happened to you?”

The stranger looks to Kazuha as if he forgot that either of them were there.  “Why didn’t mother help?  She always does…why?”

Kazuha, even though he was just met with an action that proves the stranger doesn’t want to be interacted with, ignores any previous signs and takes a seat right next to them.  He avoids touching them, instead placing a hand near them.  “I would love to help you…but we need you to answer a few questions first.  Is that okay?”  The stranger stares at him with wide eyes before slowly nodding, not dropping his gaze.  “Alright,” Kazuha says while smiling.  “First off, can you tell us where you came from?”

The stranger points upwards.  

Heizou can only scream at the stranger internally at that moment.  No shit.  However, he knows that it is not a good idea to provoke this person, especially when Kazuha is sitting right next to it.  

“Up there?” Kazuha asks, mimicking the movement.  “Does that mean you’re what…an angel?” He laughs, only stopping when the stranger doesn’t smile or show any sign of joking.  “Holy shit.”  Kazuha runs a hand through his hair, looking away from the…angel… for a moment, glancing at Heizou.  Neither of them know how to react to something like this.  “Are you hurt?  Well…obviously you’re hurt, but do you need anything?  Painkillers?  An ice pack?  A fall like that must have hurt.”

The stranger shakes his head.

“Okay,” Kazuha says while nodding his head, glancing at Heizou once more before going back to the stranger.  “Can you tell me your name?”

“It was Kunikuzushi.”

“Was?” Heizou pipes in, raising a brow at such a statement.  Honestly, this entire situation still feels ridiculous but he has to keep his cool for now.  

The stranger looks at him and for that moment, the world stops around Heizou as he stares at this person.  For this singular moment, it is like he believes everything this person says.  The stranger looks away nervously just as quickly as his attention focusing on Heizou in the first place.  

“When we are created, our creators grant us a name.  If we are cast out, we are stripped of that name.”

Heizou can quite literally see Kazuha’s expression softened due to such a statement.  “Can I call you Kunikuzushi?”

“For now I believe it is fine…at least until I find a new name.”

Kazuha smiles widely at Kunikuzushi, attempting to soothe him.  “Great, well, it’s nice to meet you Kunikuzushi.  My name is Kazuha.”  Kazuha then raises his hand, only to be greeted with a confused look from the angel.  “This is a handshake…it’s meant to represent a hello.”

“Oh…” Kunikuzushi says quietly, hesitantly reaching out and grasping Kazuha’s hand with his own.  Kazuha smiles encouragingly, even after both of them let go of the other’s hand.

Heizou cannot help but attempt to get Kazuha’s attention, which he is successful in doing.  Kazuha looks back toward Kunikuzushi for a moment, smiling softly.  “I’m going to go grab some ice for you okay?  You had quite the fall.” Kazuha says.  And with that, Kazuha stands up and beckons Heizou into the kitchen with him.  Once the door is closed, Heizou’s boyfriend immediately looks at him in confusion.  “What’s wrong?”

“Kazuha…” Heizou breathes out in disbelief.  “What are you doing?”

Once again, Heizou is greeted with a look of confusion.  “What do you mean?”

Heizou immediately points at the closed door, intending to be gesturing toward their newest guest.  “Why are you being so nice to him?  We should be trying to get information so we can send him on his way.”

“And where do you suppose he should go?”

“Not here!”

“Listen Heizou,” Kazuha says while rubbing his temples, “we can’t just let him go.  He’d be in danger.”

“How do you even know that?”

“Have you seen what he is?” Kazuha says, his voice a bit more raised.  “He’s hurt Heizou.”

And Heizou knows that Kazuha is right.  Honestly, at any other time he would be completely on board with what his boyfriend is saying.  They’ve never really disagreed on much before.  However, with the recent rise in crimes…he can’t help but feel nervous, even if the guest on his couch is a literal angel.  He leans on Kazuha, resting his forehead on his boyfriend’s shoulder as he lets out a sigh.  “What’s your read on him?”

“Excuse me?”

Heizou doesn’t raise his head as he speaks, continuing to rest on Kazuha.  He’s exhausted, simple as that.  “I trust your judgment.  So what do you think of him?  Is he going to murder us in our sleep?”

Heizou feels Kazuha sigh, shifting his weight distribution so that Heizou can still comfortably lean on him.  “I think he’s scared.  Maybe he will kill us in our sleep, but I doubt it will be tonight.”

Heizou lets out a chuckle at such a statement, appreciating the fact that Kazuha without fail always keeps his spirits up.  “Then he can stay.”

“Well I wasn’t going to take a no for an answer anyways, but I appreciate your consent.”

Heizou lifts his head, staring into Kazuha’s eyes for a moment with a small smile.  “How am I to trust you to be safe when you do things that I wouldn’t approve of?”

“When did I need your approval in the first place?” Kazuha retorts.

“I absolutely hate you sometimes, you know that?” Heizou says, pulling Kazuha into a small kiss that causes both parties to smile softly.  When they part, Kazuha leans forward, following Heizou for a moment before realizing.  “I’m sorry for fighting with you earlier.”

“Oh that?” Kazuha asks, grabbing Heizou’s face lightly and kissing him again.  “That was nothing, trust me.”

But Heizou still doesn’t like such an answer.  “I don’t like fighting with you Kazu…I’m just tired right now.  But I promise, I’ll make it up to you.”  Heizou doesn’t even know where the nickname came from.  When they started dating, he would just start using it once in a while, and it just stuck.  Kazuha never showed a dislike for the nickname, so Heizou never stopped using it.

”And I don’t doubt that one bit,” Kazuha says as he pulls Heizou closer to him.  The man absentmindedly fiddles with Heizou’s belt loops, an action that Heizou internally gushes about how adorable it is.  “I need to get our new friend some ice.”

“Then why aren’t you?”

“I’m a bit distracted right now,” Kazuha says before pressing his lips to Heizou’s once more.  Heizou has always loved his time with Kazuha, especially these moments.  He loves the softer moments, where they can just be in each other’s company without worry.  Whenever these moments are available, it always ends in hours being dedicated to just the two of them.  In those moments, it is just them, and nothing else matters.  

But alas, moments always have to end at one point, and when Kazuha intentionally steps away as if Heizou was this drug that Kazuha must avoid, Heizou’s thoughts clear.  He watches as Kazuha goes into the freezer and pulls out the large bag of ice.  Heizou stands there when his boyfriend picks up some ice cubes and wraps them in a cloth.  He even moves out of the doorway so that Kazuha can bring the ice to the new guest.

Heizou shakes his head in an attempt to gather his thoughts.  After all of this, it is already time for him to get ready for work, which he truly dislikes.  He wants to stay here, get more information, and get some sleep.  However, he cannot just skip work, especially when it is this close to the holidays.  

So, he goes upstairs without a word and changes into some fresh clothes.  Kazuha must have washed them, as they smell distinctly of Kazuha’s laundry detergent.  He then brushed his hair, pulling it into a loose ponytail that he definitely will need to tighten if he needs to investigate a crime scene.  He then ventures back downstairs, observing how Kazuha is hesitantly pressing the makeshift ice pack onto Kunikuzushi’s wings, removing it the moment the angel winces in pain.  

“I have to go,” Heizou says loud enough to get Kazuha’s attention.  

“Did you make yourself coffee?”

“I’ll buy some on the way,” Heizou says with a fake smile, genuinely feeling exhausted.  “I’ll be safe, don’t worry.”

“If you get too tired, come home immediately, understand?” Kazuha says, handing the ice pack to Kunikuzushi so that he can go back to his boyfriend.  “I don’t want to watch the news and find out you’re dead, Heizou.”

“You won’t,” Heizou says, glancing over to their guest.  “I’m trusting you to stay here.  Tell me Angel, do you plan on being difficult when staying here?”

Kunikuzushi stares at him for a moment, blinking slowly in reaction to simply being called ‘Angel’.  “I don’t plan to, no.”

Heizou merely nods, finding that to be sufficient.  “Okay then.”  And just like that, Heizou leaves to go to work

●•·•●

Kunikuzushi keeps a firm hand on the ice pack, currently helping with the pain in his wings.  It doesn’t help too much, but it’s something.  His mind is a jumbled mess, attempting to make sense of everything.  He didn’t expect to be cast out, especially not when attempting to warn others about a potential plot from the demonic realm.  He also didn’t expect to be welcomed into a human home.

He shouldn’t have said what he did when he woke up, that much is something he knows.  These two humans, even if they both seem genuinely kind, shouldn’t be brought into all of this.  They shouldn’t have knowledge of what Kunikuzushi expects is coming.

In the corner of his eye, he sees Kazuha approach him with a strange device.  Kazuha reminds Kunikuzushi of some people in the angelic realm.  Blond hair is common enough up there, with lighter hair actually being favored by most angels.  The human’s blond hair that is twisted into a messy side braid makes the man look kind, a strange opposite of the messy hair of Heizou that makes him look intimidating.  

“Hi,” Kazuha says softly, keeping Kunikuzushi from getting lost in his thoughts for too long.  “I have my laptop right here…do you know what a laptop is?”  Kunikuzushi shakes his head, not giving a verbal response.  Kazuha lets out a breath, which Kunikuzushi identifies as a good reaction, which eases his nerves slightly.  “Well, move over a bit.”

Kunikuzushi shifts further to the side of the sofa, wincing in pain but overall fully able to make room.  Kazuha offers a smile to him before placing down the laptop on the table in front of them both.  He opens the item, this laptop lighting up immediately.  The human proceeds to do something, and whatever Kunikuzushi was staring at changes instantly.

Kazuha clears his voice, causing Kunikuzushi to jump slightly at the noise but he quickly brushes it off.  “This is a laptop.  It’s an item that can let you go on the internet.”  Kazuha glances at Kunikuzushi for a moment before seemingly realizing that the angel doesn’t know what he’s talking about.  “The internet can allow you to research things.” Kunikuzushi looks at him in confusion, because he truly is confused.  “You wanted to figure out a new name, right?

Kunikuzushi stares at Kazuha for a moment, a look of surprise adorning his features.  “This is to help me find a new name?”

“Yeah!” Kazuha says, his features brightening immediately.  Honestly, with how he is acting, Kunikuzushi can’t help but smile as well, although it is a small one.  “Do you want to know how to work it?”  Kunikuzushi cannot help but nod.  He would love to show more appreciation, he really would, but he really doesn’t know how at the moment, especially with all that has happened.  “Okay, so you are going to want to type what you want to look up…you can read right?  I don’t know if angels have a different way of writing.”

“As angels, we are tasked to know practically every actively used human language.”

“Great,” Kazuha says at once, getting the laptop ready for Kunikuzushi to use.  Based on what Kunikuzushi notices, Kazuha is intentionally showing him everything he needs to do to actually work the thing.  When he notices this, his smile widens a bit more.  “Look up what you need to, okay?”

Kunikuzushi nods, turning toward the strange device.  He is still not completely sure how to work this thing, but he has always been a fast learner.  However, he feels a hand going through his hair for a moment before the sofa shifts once Kazuha jerks away.  “I’m sorry!” He says, looking shocked that he would do such a thing.

“It’s fine…”

“It’s just that your hair is so tangled…I shouldn’t have touched it, I apologize.”

“I said it is fine.”

“Your hair is really nice by the way!  I’ve never seen hair so long before-“

“Kazuha!” Kunikuzushi snaps, sending the human a look to just make him stop talking.  “It’s fine…it's all fine.”

Kazuha just nods, looking a bit dejected, causing Kunikuzushi’s stomach to plummet slightly.  He didn’t want to upset the human.  He never wanted to upset anyone.  But, Kazuha doesn’t know that.  And when Kazuha tells him that he will simply leave Kunikuzushi alone, Kunikuzushi feels guilty.

The angel holds his head in his hands for a while once the human leaves, wondering where he went wrong.  He doesn’t mean to be abrasive, but it seems as if he cannot help but fall upon his old ways.  However, he hesitantly grabs the laptop.

If Kazuha was kind enough to bring this to him, he might as well use it.

●•·•●

Kazuha didn’t hold any hard feelings toward Kunikuzushi for how the angel spoke to him.  He acknowledges that Kunikuzushi is most likely overwhelmed.  That’s why Kazuha decided to leave the room.  He also had other ulterior motives and he didn’t want Kunikuzushi to have any knowledge of them.

Heizou has a study, a room Kazuha intentionally avoids most of the time.  It’s the place where Heizou can craft notes and keep details regarding ongoing investigations.  So, Kazuha tends to let Heizou do whatever he wants up here.  However, Kazuha can be nosy at times.

Heizou rarely avoids telling Kazuha information, and while Kazuha acknowledges that legally his boyfriend is not supposed to, he still finds it odd.  This is why he is currently searching Heizou’s study for any information on the newest case.  

He carefully moves papers, searching for anything that will point him toward answers.  There is something about the case that Heizou is investigating, and Kazuha is determined to figure out what.

A crash makes him jump, quickly putting everything back in its original place.  Kazuha rushes toward the living room, almost tripping on one of the stairs.  And when he gets back in the room, he sees Kunikuzushi on the floor that is littered with long strands of the angel’s hair.  

“What…” Kazuha trails off, looking at the scissors in Kunikuzushi’s hands.  “What happened?”

“Your laptop told me how to cut my hair.”

“And you did it with blunt craft scissors?”

“They were the only ones you had.”

Kunikuzushi’s hair…doesn’t look great.  It’s choppy, clearly done by someone who lacks experience.  Glancing at his laptop’s screen, Kazuha sees the YouTube video Kunikuzushi was looking at, with a haircut that is nothing close to what he actually did.

“Angels put importance into our hair so I thought…” Kunikuzushi looks at Kazuha in a panicked manner.  “Does it look that bad?”

“No,” Kazuha says quickly, cringing at how much he doesn’t sound genuine.  Kunikuzushi sends him a look, and Kazuha feels the need to continue talking.  “Kunikuzushi-“

“Scaramouche.”

Kazuha’s brain just stops at that moment as he stares at the angel in shock.  He opens his mouth before closing it, similarly to a fish.  When he finally is able to talk, all he can do is say, “what?”

The angel shifts uncomfortably, causing one of his wings to accidentally knock over a plastic cup that was on the end table.  “I found a name I like…Scaramouche.”

“Any particular reason why?”

He shakes his head quickly, causing Kazuha to smile at the action.  Honestly, he finds it cute…just a little bit.  “I found it on a name generator…I was drawn to it.”

“Well then,” Kazuha says, standing up straight and walking toward Scaramouche.  He extends out his hand, waiting for Scaramouche to grasp it so he can help the angel up.  “It’s nice to meet you, Scaramouche.”

The angel smiles back, jerking his hand back after a moment which causes Kazuha to look at him in confusion.  However, since Scaramouche is seemingly moving on from that moment, Kazuha decides to as well.  “It’s nice to meet you too, Kazuha,” Scaramouche says.

The angel is still pretty rough around the edges but Kazuha truly doesn’t mind.  At least he’s being helped for now.

Uh hi ! I'm kind of shy abt this kind of stuff because it's Genshit but look my friends got me into Genshin especially because of Fontaine since double whammy I'm french (got it from my mom lol,,) Anyways-- I wanted to make a sona/oc for Genshin, and decided to show it especially since one of my moots has been getting into it too (which shoutout to them KJHGKFHJ,,)

His name is Gakushuu and he's a mix of a Kitsune and Nekomata. His dad is a Kitsune that lives in Inazuma and his mom is a Nekomata, and frankly idk if she's specifically from Fontaine and her parents are from Inazuma or what, but yeaha. His dad is pyro, and his mom is either hydro or cryo I haven't made up my mind yet. Also he's part of the Fatui BUT. It's because his family pressured him into it all. ( He's a sona that reflects some of the issues I've personally grown up with so PLEASE keep this in mind. ) So like,, Gaku is sort of part of the Fatui and I'm thinking abt his name being based on a Maestro, since ALSO,, he's based on Argalia. Since they're both psychotic bitches but Gaku gets my share of perfectionism issues, yay,,, So that's all going on, he's expected to work for the Fatui and also be strong, and eventually when he was old enough he was able to just fuck off and end up in Sumeru and all this other crap. Eventually he makes it to Fontaine since funny France. It's all being workshopped currently I don't even have his damn ref sheet done but I thought it would be fun to show his stuff,, OH YEAH. He has a Cryo vision and an Electro delusion! I take it that whenever he uses his delusion, his tail starts to split more and whatnot. And also he's basically a massive conductor. Another cool thing too is he wields a huge fan where he's able to conjure up different ice stuff. And the shards can make different sounds and stuff so he can detect people, as well as maybe some kind of mirror dome thing? He's based on y'know the "Maestro" thing and also tricks, he's very mischievous. (Though deep down he cares a lot about very specific people) Also here's his Sumeru outfit for as far as I have it. He probably made it himself since he paints the prints for the fabric that he puts on his fan. ( Also his fan can cause his hands to freeze over if he's not careful bc the one he has currently is a family heirloom from his dad's side and that's a whole thing to unpack,, )

I'm currently working on his Fontaine outfit and I'm basing it off of Distorted Argalia because he looks so cool,, I am so sorry for rambling, I am literally trying to hold myself back from talking about him more as well as Grimmcorp and other more Lobcorp related things but ough.. anyways I'll shut up now LMAO,,

Changing fates

Chapter two: The dark orange fox

Masterlist - Bio - Part 1 - Part 3

A dark sewer is where I woke up in. I hated it, why would the unknown goddess teleport me here?

Actually... Why is this sewer so giant?

Y/n:" How odd. Though this seems familiar somehow... Like I have been here before. I feel almost trapped here kinda like my mental- hold up is this my mindscape? Geez I am gonna have to work on my mental health if I want to change how my mindscape looks." I grumbles at the end of my sentence, like why a sewer of all places the feeling of this place just gives off a prison vibe like something or someone is trapped here.

I start walking towards where the feeling gets stronger but the closer I get it fills me up with either fear or excitement. I can't tell, maybe it is both.

-

The walk feels like it is takingforever. Though maybe that is just me.

-

The silence is eerie to me but not to much. I am used to Klee's bombs or Diona's plans to destroy the winery. Whenever I travel to inazuma or liyue I am either helping Sayu or Qiqi out or I am asleep with them. At a tree or in a bed I try my best to be their for them.

I always trust them with my journals as I have one for every nation and leave the one for their certain nation with them. So they can read it if they miss me... Well Klee's is a picture book but still.

Wait... I got off track.

I rub my head before yawning. I really needed sleep maybe after my first test I can sleep for a bit.

I soon come upon some lined up metal bars. There seems to be something in the shadows.

-

Y/n placed her left hand on one of the giant bars. Leaning in closer, a giant creature started move out of the shadows.

Y/n:" No... Way...." The girl was shocked at who the creature was. The creature no one hasn't seen in years, the Kyubi no Kitsune. The one who destroyed most of Inazuma back during the Archon wars.

The beast's eyes glowed softly as they gazed at the 16 year old girl that was standing outside of his cage.

He was reminded of when he met her great grandfather, Naruto Uzumaki, they looked so similar.

The eyes, hair color, the same whisker marks..

Hell even similar chakra but, though he didn't like that she was also related to the Uchiha, thanks to that Sarada brat.

Even so now that he is back, stronger than ever, he will do everything he can to make sure this brat stays alive.

Kyubi:" So you are my jailor. You look so much like your grandfather did. I hope you have a better hair stylist though." The Kyubi muttered the last part but Y/n still heard it.

It confused her though. But still she had heard it.

Y/n:" What do you mean? Why did you call me jailor? I thought you were dead, along with the other tailed beasts!" The girls voiced raise as her heart rate speed up in fear.

"Calm down kit, yes, us tailed beasts did die but we always reform after many years. We, tailed beasts, are made up of giant masses of chakra. We do die just not permanently." The Fox explained to the blonde.

The blonde's head was spinning as they were trying to process what she was just told. It sounded so unbelievable, but at the same time there was no evidence that the tailed beasts really died. No skeleton, no blood, and not even a body part. Only the destruction they left behind.

Y/n knows that people purposely changed history, leaving out very important parts. Though there was rumors, like that rumor about multiple villages being able to use all elements and even walk on trees and water. But there was once again no evidence about that.

The archons sure as hell knew if they were fake or not. She remembers when she questioned the Electro Archon about that rumor. Now that she thinks about it before it was denied a look a fear flooded the Electro Archon's eyes.

-

Y/n:" So you have basically been sealed inside of me when I was born?" The blonde questioned after the giant fox, now known as Kurama, told her about the past and what she is.

Kurama:" Yes, your are jinchiriki, just like your father and grandfather and so on. I just never showed myself to them." Y/n nodded, she now understood everything from chakra to jutsus to the clans. Hell now she wanted to learn how to do the jutsus.

Y/n:" By the way the goddess that I met said that this was my first test. But this doesn't feel like a test. Why is that?"

Kurama:" Are you ready to start it? Cause I can promise you that it will be hell" The kyubi said as he chuckled darkly.

A look of fear was briefly shown in Y/n's eyes before a grin took her face.

"Since when was anything ever easy? Let get this test started furball."

"Heh. Try not to die."

"No promises Kurama" Y/n's chuckles ran through the mindscape as the screen faded to black.

There is no logical explanation for hating DainsLumi

I was a little surprised when I searched Twitter for Dainslumi and found actual people who hate the Ship. Why? -----------------------------------------------------

The age of the travelers: The age of travelers is a hotly debated topic in the Genshin community. Ultimately, age depends on who is allowed to be shipped to whom, if one goes by (pseudo)moral standards. In the game you find out that Lumine and Aether even if they look like 15 year olds are over 500 years old, maybe even three thousand years old. Venti, on the other hand, is over 2,600 years old. The boy he depicts, however, is 15 years old. Klee is a small child and 48 Years old while her mother Alice, a grown woman, is 500 years old. Why fans keep pointing out that the travelers are young is due to the alcohol issue. The first time we as travelers were made aware of the issue of alcohol was in Mondstadt. We are told that we are too young for alcoholic drinks. Later we mention to Yukio in Inazuma that we can't drink alcohol yet. But why are we not allowed to drink alcohol while Venti is allowed to? Both people are physically 15 years old. 1. Venti is a god. With Venti you know that he can't be 15 years old. Lumine and Aether don't notice that they are older than their bodies. 2. The traveler was thrown into a completely forgein world. And the first thing he/she is told is: "You can't have no alcohol. You're still too young." So either the traveler sticks to it, because he/she thinks it is the rules of this world. So he/she doesn't know any better. Or to keep his/her origins as secret as possible. The fact is that the traveler wanted to try alcoholic drinks in Diona's shop and told her that he/she is older than he/she looks. And yet the traveler is not believed. We have it in black and white that the traveler cannot be 15 years old. The fact that the traveler himself later says in Inazuma "I'm not allowed to drink alcohol yet" is probably due to the fact that people wouldn't believe the traveler anyway if he said he was not a minor.

Of course, some creatures may take longer to age. The best example is Klee. But Klee's mother Alice is a young adult and at 500 years old, not even half the age of the travelers. That's why I suspect that their bodies no longer age at all. The text with Diona strongly suggests this. In this case, Lumine is not a minor. Rival Shippings - DainKae: What I am going to say now is MY personal opinion. You don't have to share it or feel offended by it. I accept any other ship with Lumine or Dainsleif. Thanks!

I honestly don't understand what foundations DainKae is built on. We've had a conversation between the two so far. Which turned out pretty down cooled. Dainsleif was very confrontational und it seems that Kaeya leaves so fast, because he feels quite uncomfortable. In addition, Kaeya is a descendant of the one who founded the "Abyss Order". And as everyone knows, Dainsleif is enemies with it. Of course, Kaeya has made it clear that he would rather fight this organization than support it, but it can still be a hindrance to a relationship between them. Lumine, on the other hand, is Dainsleif's enemy. But he was able to build enough of a relationship with her through their travels together that he still holds on to her and wants to save her. Soberly speaking, Dainslumi has a better starting point for a relationship than DainKae. In my opinion, Kaeya also fits Diluc better. At least they have a more interesting and closer relationship than Kaeya and Dainsleif. Rival Shippings - Dainther: Disputes between Lumine fans and Aether fans are probably as old as the Genshin community itself. I have to say, as a Lumine fan, it bothers me that Aether displaces her in almost every shipping. But in this case that shouldn't actually be the case. Aether fans often argument with that Aether is the original traveler. I'll take the Aether fans at their word now, because Aether is actually the main character, -the traveler.

You can see him in this webcomic and he can usually be seen in official pictures. In the battle pass you can see a legend that is quite tailored to the two travelers and one shows the sister as an Abyss princess. Fine, you won. So let Lumine be the only ship that is truly tailored to her. Rival Shippings - HalfDain: Halfdain is the only ship where I can understand their shippers. Yes. Halfdan was just a minor character whose purpose was his sacrifice and consequent death. But in one scene a lot of emotions really came up. You could tell how Dainsleif suffered. The scene with the grave flowers and the handshake between the two had something nostalgic. Halfdain was important to Dainsleif. But when romance is implemented into this short scene, one shouldn't ignore Dainsleif's feelings for Lumine either.

Source Their relationship: Dainsleif likes to compare Aether to Lumine and tells him about the flowers she loved so much. He reacts extremely negatively to the Abyss Herald and is not afraid to kill him. Maybe the point that he follows her like that, can be seen as excessive? But I can't imagine it. To me, Dainsleif behaves like a person in love, but not like a freak. And the fact that Lumine sees him as an enemy is not an exclusion criterion for the couple. She seems to have been manipulated, as the legend goes, or is on the wrong path. But that doesn't change the fact that the two were once close and it can't be that way again. ----------------------------------------------------- Lumine is of full age and they have a tragic story that can easily be interpreted as a romance. They have the most content and seemingly have a based bond with each other that was severed by their disagreement. Their connection is not toxic and they are both still alive. So if you don't hate the ship, just because you favor another, there's no reason to hate or dislike Dainslumi.

[caatfaace]

Hi! I'd like to request a genshin matchup! I am 24 years old, biromantic asexual, and an INFP and a cancer. I use any pronouns (but particularly she/they). I don't have a preference for which gender to be matched up with

I'm a very quiet individual unless I'm comfortable around the person (then I have trouble being too loud at times). I am very socially anxious, so it takes me a while to open up around someone and not second guess my every move around them. I also get anxious about things in general (especially important phone calls and other things involving talking to people). I'm pretty imaginative (creating things is one of my favorite things to do). I care about people easily.

My hobbies include writing, singing, playing music (piano & violin), baking, reading, and cross-stitching. My love languages are physical touch and gift giving and I am a hopeless romantic. I am a sucker for romantic picnics, especially paired with either cloud watching or stargazing. I'm also a sucker for pet names (particularly darling).

Likes: plushies, video games, music, cuddles, holding hands, sweets, flowers (specifically carnations and lilies), animals

Dislikes: loud noises, being tickled, uhh I think that's it really lol

Other: I'm pretty sarcastic & I love puns (no matter how terrible - lol my sense of humor is something). Also, if it's possible, I'd prefer not to be matched up with Zhongli or Childe (I view them more as sibling-figures so…)

Thank you!

I match you with...

(this is where you drumroll)

Thoma!

•················ (ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ) ················•

✮ Legend has it that when you google the most perfect man, Thoma comes up as the number 1 result.

✮ ahem

✮ Thoma is rather outgoing and he gets along with everyone he meets!  I think he’d really help you get out of your shell. He could carry a conversation if you want and/or need him to. He knows almost everyone in Inazuma as well so if you ever needed to talk to someone then Thoma would be more than willing to help–to an extent. He of course would help you work towards managing that anxiety.

✮ Since you like to cook, I think one way Thoma would help you talk to people more is by inviting you to hot pot games. He never pushes it, though, so if you say no then he’ll drop it. 

✮ You can’t look me in the eye and tell me Thoma isn’t one of the most domestically romantic guys ever. I can already see the perfect first date; you know the big sakura tree just outside Inazuma city? He’s taking you out for a picnic! But it isn’t just any picnic, oh no. You're also feeding/playing with all the stray dogs and cats that hang around there. It’s a place he frequents and he wants to share things he loves with you.

✮ I imagine his main love languages are quality time or gift giving/receiving. 

✮ whenever you tell him a pun he always lets out a small giggle before telling you it was terrible (he’s lying and he’s definitely a terrible liar)

✮ Also please cross stitch with him I can totally see him liking that </3

•················ (ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ) ················•

Thank you for the request mwa maw
