#Just a “feeble scholar”

[silvernyxchariot]

Apparently, Alhaitham's favorite food is steak, and honestly, same, boi. Just some meat grilled up a little bit with minimal salt and spices, and his lazy ass is ready to eat; no extra work necessary. It's probably the reason he has a six-pack rack of abs.

Someone on tiktok once said, "Alhaitham acts like a cat (feisty and independent), but he would love like a dog (loyal and protective)." As an Alhaitham kin, these things haunt my thoughts to this day. Take these as you will.

[Captions: Guess what Alhaitham's favorite gift is? Correct answer = Steak, Source: HoyoLab app.]

Also, I saw this lil capcut template,

and thought it was cute enough to use. Also², get to know me a little better?

My (#1) Main: Ayato

I started out as a Noelle/Yun Jin main for a while because I didn't play much. It wasn't until I seriously started building Ayato (c2) that I got deeper into the game. On that note, Ayatoast, you were supposed to be chosen the one. My first C6 5☆. He is now C4 from C2. I know it's only day 2-3, so I have time to grind, but damn. I used over 200 wishes this banner.

Fav Element: Hydro

I thought it would be Electro tbh, but Hydro is more versatile.

Region: Sumeru

Complain all you want about how large or boring the desert is. All I see is free primos. 💅 Also³, my husband and his first husband live there.

Me: No face reveal. Sowwy. 😋

But have a partial picture of my hand holding my cat's chin.

.

The fact that there's a star in the center of the temp. is so on theme with my (partial) JoJo's username.

Brainrots you say? 👀

So, as you may or may not know I'm like, a huge enthusiast for domestic scenarios.

So basically, imagine coming home and finding them (specifically my biases in this case: Ayato, Zhongli and Alhaitham) sound asleep on the sofa. Hair splayed on the pillows, cheek cutely squished against it, maybe quietly snoring. It would take all my willpower to not pounce on them immediately and smother them with kisses and cuddles.

Like, there is just something so cute and adorable about finding someone you love asleep. In their most vulnerable state, basically.

Zhongli and Alhaitham both would probably just lie there with a book on their chest because they fell asleep while reading. Maybe the finger still stuck in between the pages to not forget where they stopped.

Ayato doesn't strike me as someone who usually falls asleep on the sofa. Like 99% of the time it would probably be his desk if he randomly falls asleep somewhere. Once he wakes up again there's probably some document stuck to his cheek, haha! But if you ever find him asleep on the sofa it would be even cuter because of how rare it is to find him there.

my brain went brr brr brr at the thought juhygtfdsdfghju- and OFC YOU'RE THE SUCKER FOR FLUFF and they're all delicious, thank you-

⚘ — TIME FOR SOME SHUTEYE.

i. SYNOPSIS : you walk into them sleeping and it's a whole mood from there - aka ; some napping headcanons because we love some domesticity amidst the pain and suffering of my works. ( al haitham / ayato / zhongli x gn ! reader )

ii. WARNING(S) : al haitham legitimately being a piece of shit even in sleep mode, ayato also being a piece of shit but in a cute way and zhongli being pure soft and wholesome but also still giving the reader low key heart attacks. NOT PROOFREAD.

&& . al haitham · ( how to trigger muscle memory 101 )

congratulations, you've caught al haitham in the midst of a rare power nap! it's rare finding him in a state of vulnerability like this, with his work with the akademiya and his little side quests ( do they count as espionage? is that a word you can use for them??? ).

and it's strange too, you'd think. if you know al haitham well enough, he does tend to conduct himself with a certain amount of discipline at least. no soft corners, no lapses in demeanor, no wavering stares or displays of weakness ( except with you, he's always softer with you ).

but he's here now, splayed over the couch while the spine of a book is squished against his cheek. there is a sweetness to it, seeing the usual sharpness he came with melt and weather into a picture so innocent. you briefly wonder if he was like this too when he was still a child, as naïve and angelic as he presents himself now.

you don't want to ruin the moment. that and you want to bask in it a little longer, so a gentle kiss on his cheek suffices and he shifts and leans into your touch with a soft groan.

until kaveh's huff behind you snaps out of it and you see the inkwell in his hand.

"are you sure about that?" you might ask uncertainly, keeping your voice low.

"call it karma." kaveh shrugs.

the moment he gets close, his ink blotted fingers inches away from al haitham's cheek, he's suddenly flung across the room.

you look at al haitham, brows raised while kaveh screams vitriol and profanity, but the scribe continues his nap.

( "i know you're awake you little shit-" kaveh hisses when you leave to find a first aid kit. al haitham snores louder, completely unbothered, as the balance of the world willed it. )

&& . kamisato ayato · ( is he a asleep or awake ; that's the question )

ayato lives within the uncanny valley of him napping and not napping. sometimes you catch him shutting his eyes and dozing off and on others, he stubbornly stays awake and forces himself through his work.

an undeniable fact though, is how graceful he is. his posture is still maintained save for the slight slump in his shoulders and the bow of his head, and his hands usually come to rest on his lap.

he's a light sleeper too, easily woken if you pass by and your footsteps ae too heavy, so you take care to avoid the creaks on the wood floor and opening the shoji screens with little control. maybe you'll be lucky enough to watch him from a distance with a soft smile on your face.

the first time you did sneak close and approach him, funnily enough, he showed no signs of stirring. you find it strange, but you cup his cheeks in your hand and you sneak a kiss on his forehead. then you quickly shuffle away, stifling back a giddy giggle.

it happens again and again and again till it was a ritual of sorts. a kiss on his forehead while you cradle his face before you exit.

one day you were too busy, too distracted and you could only linger a moment, stroking your thumb over his skin. when you ready yourself to leave however, you did not expect ayato's hands to wind around your wrists or his eyes to crack open and look at you with playful sadness.

"no kisses for me this time, love?" he asks.

you're silent for a moment.

"dammit ayato-" you groan, feeling embarrassment and exasperation and affection all at once. this schemer, this little UGH-

ayato only laughs and kisses you properly. "don't skip out next time." he whispers. from then on, you don't.

&& . zhongli | rex lapis · ( he purrs guys ; he purrs and it's adorable )

if seeing al haitham take a nap is rare, it's even rarer to see zhongli take one. a part of it is being an ex-god and a part of it has to do with his schedule. but being a mortal meant doing mortal things that this mortal vessel enjoys.

a few months in and he's taking quick naps around the house. you know, just old man vibing, laying back on the couch with his hands tangled with whatever he was doing last. sometimes it's a pen and a notepad, and if you tilt the paper just a bit, you'd see a detailed list ( ranging from important dates and appointments and financial dealings to chores ).

other times it's a rock settled in his fist and you notice a trend where those rocks somehow finds itself on your desk ( zhongli would be smiling his little smile at the kitchen if you dare peek. he was not subtle at all ).

sometimes it's a book with the edge of the bookmark tangled around his finger tips. those were the constants, where zhongli always seemed to be grasping something when he dozes off.

and should you touch his hands, by some ancient instinct, he engulfs it in his own. that, is where the purring starts. easy to miss at first till it steadily grows louder and louder and suddenly you can feel his vibrating chest down to your toes.

but another quirk of his genuinely terrified you.

zhongli...does not move when he's napping. in fact, he doesn't even look like he's breathing. so when you walked in on one of his sessions for the first time, you thought he was dead and reacted like any normal human being : by panicking.

all things considered though, he's actually a pretty heavy sleeper unless he assumes he's in immediate danger. and yes, unfortunately you screaming is just the thing that gets him off the couch with a frantic look on his face.

"I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD-" you cried when he wrapped his arms around you in comfort.

"and i thought you were dying." he mutters in turn.

( the two of you laugh about it over tea now. )

genderbent cyhaino doodles for your soul and mine <3

ID: a collection of (mostly) grayscale drawings featuring genderbent Cyno and Alhaitham from Genshin Impact, with text saying "Cyno x Alhaitham but make it sapphic (heart shape)". The drawings include: Alhaitham and Cyno, side by side, neutral-faced. A recreation of Alhaitham's "use your brain" and Cyno's "duel!" stickers. Cyno looking not-so-subtly at Alhaitham's chest while the latter is speaking to someone off screen. Cyno sitting in Alhaitham's lap, the former with her cards while the latter with a book. They're looking at each other, smiling, and there are color-coded hearts by their heads. Cyno carrying a sleeping Alhaitham on her back with a tired but fond look. An enraged Cyno with her spirit claws and bandages with a red-eyed, "corrupted" Alhaitham, their faces both partially obscured in shadow. End ID.

Scholarly Turtlenecks

Left: @embras-grace // Middle: @tortor-sauce

Maddox makes a discovery and it’s not about Ori and Astro trying to decipher his divination

It’s the fact that both scholars are wearing body tight turtlenecks

Astro’s out here with hip holes !

Must be an academy approved outfit …

// It’s dem flow proof fits. How do you know? It’s got a shimmer to em

Everyone’s a little wet since Astro is relearning his hydromancy

Also Ori kinda looks like Jing Yuan from Honkai

They’re looking at the Peacock Constellation

[dustofthedailylife]

Screaming because I was just sitting on discord with a couple of friends and my boyfriend, and somehow they started talking about what would be if it were medieval times and there were no video games...

And my boyfriend deadass just dropped "I would probably just become a scholar out of boredom" and I was trying so hard not to laugh.

I keep saying that he reminds me so much of Alhaitham and this was just the cherry on top for me 😂
