[primusfortuna]

Cuit Hangout Lines ⟡ Beginning of a Dream

⚠️ I referenced the JP wiki for these lines. It's possible there might be some discrepancies with the in-game dialogue.

Affection Lv. 0-3

Start Hangout “I hope I get some good ideas... Truth is, I have no clue what to do for Oscar-san’s meal tomorrow.”

Talk About Last Night’s Dinner (Tap)

First or second interaction

“I get so nervous whenever I serve Oscar-san... In a good way, of course.” “Wanna know the secret ingredient to my dinner last night? Well, I added a teeny bit of berries to the sauce for the meat.” “Hehe, could you tell it was a Ricordo local speciality? I thought it'd nice to have something like that once in a while.”

Keep interacting

“Ahaha, was it that good? You always eat my food with a smile, so that makes me very happy.” “I want to keep making food that makes people happy when they eat it. I'm not just talking about customers...” “Oh, right, is there anything you want to eat tomorrow? I’ll use it as a reference for the menu.”

Play Shiritori¹ (Drag)

First or second interaction

“Soup... pudding... G? Grati... no, nevermind.” “Can I play one that might be a little hard? Appetizer. How about it? ...I could think of one.” “Sugar... Worcestershire sauce... Ah, you can't say vinegar, okay?” (Original words: satou, usutāsōsu, su)

Keep interacting

“Hehe, take your time. I have no problem with culinary-themed shiritori, but are you doing okay?” “Huh? You’re learning from this? You’re pretty engaged. I gotta follow your lead too. Okay, let’s keep going.” “My turn? Gelato. It's to. What’ll your reply be?”

Readjust His Brooch (Long Press)

First or second interaction

“My guild emblem... I’m very proud to be working under Oscar-san.” “Ahh... Was it a little crooked? Thanks for noticing that for me.” “Thank you. Would've been terrible if that fell off... Hehe, that kind of tickles.”

Keep interacting

“You’re very careful in putting it on. Thank you. This is something very precious to me.” “A medal is a sign of recognition... Every time I look at this, I’m reminded that I made it here, in my own way.” “Of course, I still have to work hard, but I need to aim even higher.”

Get Closer

“Uhm... Is something wrong? Er, you’re a little too close, what’s going on...?” “Wah! What’s wrong? You’re closer than usual, so that startled me a little.” “......... Hehe, it’s like we’re having a staring contest, huh?”

End Hangout “Oh, look at the time. We should head back now. This walk helped clear my head.”

Affection Lv. 4-7

Start Hangout “Since we're heading out and all, maybe I should’ve made some snacks?”

“Huh? I’ve got bags under my eyes? I got totally caught up in making sauce yesterday... I guess I was working late into the night.”

Ask For Cooking Tips (Tap)

First or second interaction

“I think it’s important to find delicious foods. I get really happy whenever I find a dish that makes me think, 'I want to recreate that taste.'” “It’s important to get used to making something. Practice it over and over until it tastes good! Hehe, you can do it.” “Always measure your ingredients exactly. The measurements written in recipes have been tested for the best taste.”

Keep interacting

“You want to hear my personal tips? Hmm... I guess, cook while imagining someone’s smile as they’re eating.” “You know, I’ve been cooking for my family for a long time. And I still get happy seeing them all enjoy my food.” “I want my food to make people happy... I think that sentiment is the best spice of all.”

Fix His Loose Tie (Drag)

First or second interaction

“Huh? Oh, I see, my tie was loose... I got a little startled when you suddenly started touching my neck.” “Thank you. Oscar-san might’ve scolded me if it stayed crooked.” “I really try to be careful. It just slips out of place as soon as I start moving around. I owe you one.”

Keep interacting

“You’re fixing it so thoroughly. I really admire that meticulous side of yours.” “......Huh? Do you not know what shape it was in originally?” “Even you have moments like these, huh? Hehe... Cute. This is perfect, thank you.”

Massage His Palms (Long Press)

First or second interaction

“Ah, are you giving me a massage? This makes me kind of happy. Thanks.” “Your hands are so soft. Mine have gotten rough and callused from holding frying pans and stuff.” “Hah~... This feels so good. I don’t usually pay that much attention, but I guess I was pretty tired.”

Keep interacting

“Maybe that’s enough for now. You’ve already soothed me plenty. Aren’t you tired now?” “Giving me a special service today...? It’s my lucky day. It feels so good when you’re touching my hands...” “Make sure to tell me when you get tired, okay? ’Cause I’ll give you a massage. ...Ah! Unless you don’t want me to.”

Get Closer

“It’s rare for you to get this close... No, it doesn’t bother me.” “Can I tell you a thought I had? You’re cute. Super cute... Oh, I’m not trying to butter you up or anything.” “Is there something stuck to my face? ...Oh, there’s not? Then... What’s going on?”

End Hangout “Do you have some time after this? I’ll whip up something simple and I’d love to have you try it.”

“I always feel so soothed when I’m with you... You’re like a vitamin to me.”

Affection Lv. 8-10

Start Hangout “Lately whenever I’m with you, I can’t stop coming up with dishes I want you to eat.”

“For some reason, you seem cuter than usual today... Is it your makeup? Hehe, I’m kind of getting butterflies.”

Ask for the Newest Restaurant Recommendations (Tap)

First or second interaction

“I heard from someone at the market that a restaurant with good seafood pasta popped up.” “Meat, veg, seafood, ethnic food... What kind of recommendation do you want? I’m always in the know about this.” “Wanna check out a place with tons of different desserts? It’s a huge hit with girls, and I’m curious about it myself.”

Keep interacting

“I have an idea! I’d love to take you to a good restaurant I know. What do you think?” “They’ve got delicious entrées and desserts. Plus the interior is pretty. I think girls would love this place.” “I’d like to hear your opinion too... I want to know what kinds of things you like more than anything.”

Hold His Hand (Drag)

First or second interaction

“Hm? Hehe... Sure, go ahead. Ah, can I fix my grip a little? I want a tight hold on your hand.” “I’m so happy. ’Cause you don’t usually do this type of thing, right?” “It puts me at so much ease when you hold my hand like this.”

Keep interacting

“Your hand is so warm. Huh? I can hold it tighter? Well... If you say so.” “You have this strange gentleness that feels like it’s wrapping me up. I can’t really put it into words...” “Also, I’m getting butterflies. I feel so happy... Am I the only one like this? How do you feel?”

Touch His Dark Circles (Long Press)

First or second interaction

“Hm...? What’s wrong? Wondering about my eyebags...? Sorry. Did I get you worried?” “Ahh, I got up kinda early this morning for cooking prep... *yawns*... Er, sorry I did that in front of you.” “Ah, found out I'm sleep deprived? I just got so many food ideas last night that I had to sort them out...”

Keep interacting

“You don’t have to worry that much. Ever since you came around, I’ve stopped forcing myself as much as before.” “Huh, you don’t believe me...? It’s true. Besides, I always have you backing me up.” “What about you? Are you sleeping well? You work yourself to the bone everyday... I’m the one who should be worried.”

Get Closer

“I wonder what you’re thinking about right now. I hope it’s me... Kidding.” “Feeling your warmth up close puts me right at ease... Hey, can you come closer to me?” “Doing this with you is starting to feel so routine to me. I even get uneasy when you’re not around.”

End Hangout “Honestly, I don’t want to go back just yet, but I have things that need to be done. But we’ll go out again for sure, okay?”

“Haha... That's the face of plain disappointment. But. I bet I’m more upset than you are. ...How ’bout we take the long way back?”

[TL Notes]

1 - Shiritori is a Japanese word game. Players take turns saying words that begin with the last syllable of the previous word. Playing a word that ends in "n" (ん) is an automatic loss.

This game doesn't translate well in English, so I decided to just translate each word literally and add the Japanese words in parentheses (if necessary).

post recipe

There are many things this could be referencing, so I'll just post a few of them

Cottage Pie Best thing I've cooked, and one of the best things I've eaten Base: 1. Put a tablespoon of olive oil in a very large sauce pan and brown 2-3 pounds of ground beef then set it aside. 2. Reduce the heat and put another table spoon or two of olive oil in the pan and add 2-3 finely chopped onions and carrots, cook till soft. 3. Add 3-4 finely chopped garlic cloves, a cup or two of defrosted frozen peas, a few tablespoons of flour, and a tablespoon or two of tomato purée. Mix and increase the heat, then add back the beef. 4. Add 800-900 ml of beef stock, 5-6 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, as many red chili pepper flakes as you like, 4-5 bay leaves, and 8-10 sprigs of thyme. 5. Bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy is thick, should take around 50 minutes, check when there are 15 minutes left check and if the gravy still has a lot of liquid increase the heat a bit. Once finished, season with salt, pepper, and any other spices you'd like to taste. Mashed Potatoes (Make while reducing gravy): 1. Peel and cut 2kg of potatoes into large cubes, cover them in salted cold water and bring to a boil until tender. 2. Drain and let them dry for a little bit, then mash them with a few splashes of milk, a bit of butter, 300 grams of sharp Cheddar, fresh shredded Parmesan, and salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. 3. Spoon meat mixture into a large baking container, then do the same with the potatoes. Cover that sucker with more Cheddar and Parmesan. 4. At 220°C/430°F bake for 25-35 minutes, let sit for a few minutes to cool, then serve

Trick-or-Treater Anon is back for a final treat, please! 🎃

Underswap and/or Swapfell!Red brother's for Halloween ♡

(If you feel generous, some Twistfell too please!♡ )

Happy Spooperween 2023!!

Many candies for you and some skellies! 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍭 🍬 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍭 🍬 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍬 🍫 🍭 🍬 💀 ☠️💀 ☠️ 💀

Late, but every day is Halloween in my house, so--

The first year they're on the Surface, Blackberry would insist on trick-or-treating. Yes, he's an adult, but he never got to do this! He's small enough and acts young enough that most people responded well to him, but he was given the "Aren't you a little old for this?" treatment by some jerks. After that first year, I think he really falls in love with the holiday. I could see him really enjoying haunted houses, and even working as a scare actor.

Twist...not so much. He likes the cute side of things--kids in costumes, "spoopy" stuff--but he hates the scary shit. It agitates his LV and overall just isn't fun for him. His fear response definitely falls on the "fight" side of flight, fight, or freeze, so he tries to stay clear of things that trigger him like that. (He doesn't want to be the guy who punches an innocent scare actor, after all.) So, he usually stays home, passes out candy, and maybe watches a "cute" Halloween movie. I think he may have tried a haunted house for his bro's sake, but the whole time, he had to keep reminding himself that it wasn't real, no one was actually going to harm him. And it was nothing but miserable for him. So he didn't try that again.

Blue isn't as enthusiastic about Halloween as many of the others. (He's more of a Gyftmas guy, I think.) I do think he likes an excuse for a party, though. ^_^

And Swap is mostly interested in the pumpkin spice everything and the candy. And he's very fond of the costumery. He favors cute over scary, and he makes his brother a costume every year. (He eventually starts making one for himself once he works through his self esteem issues.) Overall, though, he's a pass out candy and chill kind of guy.

Razz is a grump. He doesn't do Halloween, and is overall disgusted by the whole thing. (Some of this is self-directed frustration because he's got a sweet-tooth he resents, and he's always upset that Halloween marks the start of the holiday season, where sweets are too plentiful.) If he passes out anything (unlikely), it's apples.

Slim loves the whole idea, but he's not sure how to engage with it. He's too shy to spearhead anything himself, but he does want to participate. He's down for just about anything his friend group will get up to, though. I could fully see him finding a local ghost hunting group and engaging in the real scary shit, though--visiting graveyards, breaking into haunted houses, and conducting seances. This boy is delighted rather than scared by Halloween gore; if he wants a thrill, he needs something a bit more intense. (We'll assume ghosts are real in this 'verse--see Napstablook--but any that remained on the Surface after the war aren't like the ones that went Underground.)

Thank you for the fun asks!! ^_^ They really made my night.

GENPACT: Cam's Official Revamp, a Year and a Half Later.

My original verse for Genpact started to feel a little outdated after the further release of Sumeru and the subsequent release of Fontaine, and so I wanted to seize the opportunity to take my original information and refine it!

For the most part, it's... Just copied and pasted. But there will be sections I rewrite, and if you've seen the original post, you might know what I changed.

So, without further ado: Katsuki's new Genpact verse!

BANNER TITLE: Gladiatorial Incandescence.

NAME:  Katsuki Bakugou. BIRTHDAY:  4/20. AFFILIATION:  Adventurer’s Guild. CONSTELLATION NAME:  Ardenti Bellator. A talented young warrior from Inazuma, determined to prove he is the next best adventurer Teyvat has ever seen.

SPECIAL STAT:  CRIT Rate%. (+19.2%) ASCENSION ITEMS:  Treasure Hoarder Insignia, Agnidus Agate / Fragment / Chunk / Stone, Dendrobium, Smoldering Pearl. WEAPON TYPE:  Catalyst.

SPECIAL DISH.

DISH NAME:  “Death by Spice” (Cured Pork Dry Hotpot) EFFECT:  Increases all party members' CRIT Rate by 20% and CRIT DMG by 20% for 300s. DESCRIPTION: Katsuki Bakugou’s specialty.  The taste is impeccable and the meat melts away in your mouth, the vegetables cooked to perfection.  It’s evident that Katsuki spent a long time making sure this was to standard. The only question you have is:  why did it have to be so spicy...?!

NAMECARD DESCRIPTION.

NAME:  Katsuki Bakugou: Sparks of Hope. OBTAIN: Reward for reaching Friendship Lv. 10 with Katsuki Bakugou. DESCRIPTION: In the quietest of moments, the sparks that form in his hands, channelled from his Vision, aren’t the same ones meant for war and combat.

TALENTS.

Explosive Barrage. Normal Attack:  Perform up to 6 consecutive attacks, dealing explosive Pyro DMG. Charged Attack:  Consumes a certain amount of stamina and creates a bigger explosion in the area, dealing AOE Pyro DMG. Plunging Attack:  From the Air, Katsuki gathers the power of Pyro and charges down with his plunge, dealing AOE Pyro DMG.

Cluster. Elemental Skill. Katsuki knows that to win a battle, you have to push yourself beyond your limit. His speed increases by 5% and his explosions become larger in size, dealing AOE Pyro DMG, at the cost of less consecutive attacks and higher stamina drainage. In this mode, Katsuki will lose a small percentage of HP with each attack.

Normal Attack:  Perform up to 4 consecutive attacks, dealing AOE Pyro DMG. Charged Attack:  Consumes a certain amount of stamina and intensifies his explosion in one hand, dealing large AOE Pyro DMG. Plunging Attack:  From the air, Katsuki gathers the power of Pyro and condenses it into one hand, plunging to cause knockback and deal AOE Pyro DMG.

After 24 seconds, or upon cancellation, this ability will end and Katsuki reverts to his normal attacks.  He will no longer lose HP. The CD for this ability is the same as how long it lasts when occurred manually. If the cancellation occurs automatically, the CD is increased to 28 seconds.

Howitzer Impact. Elemental Burst. When people are pushed into a corner, they often cower.  But for Katsuki, he only grins in the face of danger. The strength of Howitzer Impact is affected by whether he is using Cluster or not. Energy cost: 60. Cooldown: 15s (Standard) / 18s (Cluster).

Howitzer Impact: Standard. Katsuki creates a powerful tornado with himself at the heart of it using his Vision and, upon impact, unleashes Pyro to deal a massive amount of Pyro DMG.

Howitzer Impact: Cluster. Katsuki propels himself into a tornado and, upon impact, unleashes Pyro to deal a massive amount of AOE Pyro DMG.  Because of the extra strength, Katsuki loses a small portion of HP and it suffers a longer cooldown than the standard Howitzer Impact.

Second Wind. 1st Ascension passive. Upon a CRIT hit while using Cluster, Katsuki gains a small percentage of HP back based on his total ATK.

Battle Fervour. 4th Ascension passive. After using Howitzer Impact: Standard, members of the party (excluding Katsuki himself) have their CRIT DMG increased by 20%.

Not a Recipe for the Weak. Utility passive. When a Perfect Cooking is achieved on an ATK-boosting dish, Katsuki has a 12% chance to receive double the product.

CONSTELLATIONS.

Explosive Speed. Constellation 1. The speed boost gained by Cluster is increased by an additional 5%.

Ardour Ablaze. Constellation 2. For each enemy defeated during Cluster, Katsuki’s Pyro DMG Bonus increases by 4%.  5 stacks.  Each stack lasts approximately 8s. All stacks are removed when Katsuki is removed from the field.

Intensifying Detonation. Constellation 3. Increases the level of Cluster by 3. Maximum upgrade is 15.

Illumine Gambit. Constellation 4. Howitzer Impact’s AOE is increased by 20%. If casted as Howitzer Impact: Cluster, a land mine lingers at the point of impact, which explodes upon exposure to another element or after 5s.

Ignited Fury. Constellation 5. Increases the level of Howitzer Impact by 3. Maximum upgrade is 15.

A Warrior’s Last Stand. Constellation 6. Casting Cluster when below 50% HP no longer negates Katsuki’s HP over time, and applies a 20% Pyro DMG Bonus which lasts 10s.  His DEF is increased by 40%. These effects cancel when Cluster ends, when the duration is finished, when Katsuki is felled, or when Katsuki is no longer on the field. Can only occur once every 45s.

SIGNATURE WEAPON.

Grenadier’s Perseverance. Base Atk (Lv. 90):  542. 2nd Stat:  CRIT DMG%. (+88.2%) Ascension Items:  Narukami’s Wisdom / Joy / Affection / Valor, Sacrificial Knives, Samachurl Scrolls.

Burning Resolve of the Gladiator. Increases Elemental DMG Bonus by 10~20%. When the wielding character takes the field, Burning Resolve activates.  With Burning Resolve active, each consecutive normal attack increases ATK% up to 20~40% up to 4 stacks, each stack lasting 6s.  This effect is refreshed after the use of an Elemental Burst.

DESCRIPTION: This catalytic weapon with infused pyro energy crackling inside once belonged to a samurai who lived for a fight, bound by an honour that many failed to understand.

The samurai never yielded to the ideology of eternity. From a young age, she was forever chasing after the idea of something tangible but ephemeral, determined to prove that eternity was not the way their country should strive toward. She spent many a month travelling between the islands to find her answer.

One day in her travels, she came across a man from a faraway land; he wielded Pyro with no clear Vision, and when she saw its transience, sought to get an answer from him.

"By what power do you wield Pyro?" "None." "But none is impossible." "It is, when you know how to harness flame into sparks."

She pressed the issue for many days until the man finally yielded and offered his expertise to her, but with a catch; she only had the matter of days to learn, for he would be returning to his homeland soon enough.

With little deliberation, she agreed. For the handful of days knowing him on her home soil, she came to understand the art of explosives, their destructive properties, and their short-lasting lifespan - something that goes against Inazuma's ideal of eternity. He helped her create machinations which allowed her to channel this energy into something that would be of more use to her; after all, she was a warrior, and she had use for anything that would give her the upper hand in battle.

She came to the conclusion that she needed a device that could harness the power of Pyro with and without a Vision. And though her time with the man from across the sea was coming to a close, she was determined to enlist his help.

The device was eventually made. When she went to test it, however, she found that its power fell short of what she expected.

"Was this not meant to conjure explosions without a Vision?" "It was meant to, but... There is no simple way of saying this, it may still require a Vision to activate its mechanisms." "So, we spent your remaining days in Inazuma on a mechanism that won't work?"

The man from another land smiles earnestly.

"You seem an ambitious and headstrong woman. With time, I think that Celestia will look upon you fondly and bless you with the very thing you desire the most. Your passions won't be ignored."

And so the man returned to his home, and she remained adrift the islands, chasing her passions, forever praying to Celestia that she will be given the gift that allowed their ambitions to bear its fruit. Even as her hair greyed and her body withered, even as each battle of fervour and determination resulted in victory with no gift, she did not give up. She wanted to pursue one of the only images of transience she could achieve, all to prove that true beauty was temporary.

Her final battle never gave her the wish she so desperately desired.

CHARACTER DETAILS.

Katsuki considers himself a different standard of Inazuman, as ruthless in battle as he is outside of it.

Many people might be dismissive of him due to his aggressive nature but it’s this that makes him such an effective adventurer.  Even at 16, Katsuki is able to wipe out entire hoards of Hilichurls and Treasure Hoarders without a second glance.

Katsuki makes it evident he’s not interested in team-ups.  He’s an adventuring team of one.

A lot of the commissions he’s offered result in him rejecting them, only interested in the ones that seem to pose a challenge.

CHARACTER STORY 1. Friendship Lv. 2.

Some people aren’t surprised to hear that Katsuki is often at odds with the Adventurer’s Guild, despite his membership and shining track record.

Katheryne gives him plenty of commissions from the people of Teyvat, varying from simple deliveries to taking on Ruin machines, but Katsuki makes it clear he’s only interested in looking for a fight.  If there’s an enemy involved, he wants to face it.  Some people believe that it’s his upbringing that determines this  -  others think he’s being unnecessarily picky.

This discordance means Katsuki finds the trouble before it appears, unwilling to wait forever;  many locals of different regions will mention that it’s quieter after the fiery blond has been through.

The only real trademark that Katsuki has been near is the multitude of burnt flora.

CHARACTER STORY 2. Friendship Lv. 3.

Unknown to a lot of people, Katsuki can actually wield different weapons.

A lot of the time, Katsuki is seen creating explosions that seem to come from his hands.  It’s easy enough to dismiss the idea that he can use other weapons.

However, when he was young, he was just as determined to prove he could do more beyond hand-to-hand combat;  in doing so, he learned to use a sword and claymore.  After that was a polearm and a bow, but he found these uninteresting.

Those who do know about this often hire him for situations where he may be outnumbered.

Katsuki excels in situations where he’s fighting against the odds:  there are plenty of times where he’s had to fight Fatui and Treasure Hoarders in insane ratios, and nearly every time, Katsuki will emerge victorious after disarming their weapons and using those against them.  One time was when he took a Fatui Pyro Agent’s knives to slice down the rest.

Despite primarily excelling in hand-to-hand combat enhanced by his Pyro Vision, it’s this weapon expertise that’s allowed him to survive so long.

CHARACTER STORY 3. Friendship Lv. 4.

His parents fought hard to ensure Katsuki had everything they could offer him.  Growing up, his mother would teach him what she knew as self-defence, and his father would teach him the knowledge of samurai and honour, reminding him of their homeland's codes. They would fight tooth and nail to bring information in from outside of Inazuma's borders, even when it posed a risk to themselves.

Sometimes they wonder if they should have left Inazuma before the Vision Hunt Decree and Sakoku Decree - would it be better if he was raised overseas?

Katsuki knows what they think.

He’s overheard his mother talk to his father about where they’d gone wrong.  In the young boy’s mind, neither had done anything wrong  -  he would have chased his ambitions in any other nation and still be the same person he is today. It wouldn't have made a difference if he was in Inazuma, or Liyue, even Mondstadt or Natlan.

The young boy never told them this.  Instead, when he makes it home, he sits back down and demands another story of home or another grain of advice.

In a way, Katsuki just wants them to feel reassured that they’d made the right choice, seeing their only boy do well in the world of Teyvat.  On the other side of the coin, he really just wants to spend time with his folk.

Either way, he can recall all the stories, all the advice.  They’re some of his most treasured memories.

CHARACTER STORY 4. Friendship Lv. 5.

Pursuing adventuring and heroism was always on the cards, but there was something that cemented his pursuit.

Years ago, Katsuki (and many others) witnessed the most heroic of adventurers pull people from a newly formed wreckage off Narukami Island.  This wasn’t uncommon, but this  -  he heard later  -  was not at the behest of a commission.

He watched this man pull multiple people from the wreckage with the support of what looked like a Vision.  The man carried an unwavering smile despite it all.

A young Katsuki would cling to the image of this single adventurer and bring it home with him the same day, frantically discussing with his parents the wonders of adventurers and how powerful they were.  He was determined to be the same  -  an unwavering pillar who didn’t need the support of others to do good.

This single adventurer shaped Katsuki’s approach to adventuring.

It’s no wonder that he pursues things before they happen, or only takes on the toughest of commissions.  This was the change that would shift Katsuki’s relationship with his parents, with his few friends, and the entirety of Teyvat.

CHARACTER STORY 5. Friendship Lv. 6.

Funnily enough, he had some friends before he started adventuring away from Inazuma.

A lot of people find it surprising to know that Katsuki used to have friends.  After all, Katsuki makes it clear that team-ups are never because he agreed to it, and he nearly blew up Katheryne to secure his own adventuring team that consists of one person.  Having friends is an unimaginable aspect of the blond’s life.

Katsuki had a close and tight-knit group of friends in Inazuma.  Some came and went, others stayed until he left.  He was their leader and he made it clear that he was going to travel Teyvat to be an adventurer at some point.

When he was packing his bags, he already cut off most of his friends;  all he said was that he was leaving, and if they really wanted to know where, they should listen for his name.

There wasn’t anyone he really missed from that group...  Except maybe one, if you asked the right questions.  A young boy almost the same age as he was and wanted to follow the same footsteps that he did;  chasing the same adventurer without a second thought.  He was from a different town, Katsuki remembered, but they were from the same island.  He was pretty sure that they only knew each other by sheer luck, since their family demographics were quite different.

Katsuki hasn’t seen that boy since he left home.  He’s not even sure how he’d feel if he saw that boy again.

After all, Katsuki never even told him that he was fleeing.

KATSUKI’S GUIDE TO ADVENTURING. Friendship Lv. 4.

Seeing as the lands beyond were starkly unfamiliar with the young Bakugou, he made himself a very tiny book bound in leather and filled with hastily written notes.  None of them are particularly insightful upon first glance.

There are things such as “avoid shiny water” in the Fontaine section, “mountain climbing” in Liyue, “wolves” in Mondstadt, and “tree” in Sumeru.

However, upon further inspection, each tiny phrase seems to be a part of a bigger picture. Even though Katsuki has only written to avoid a certain water in Fontaine, it was because Fontaine has the Primordial Sea Water - and while it would've been mostly okay to traverse it, he would've felt incredibly sick after some time.

Liyue and Sumeru's written references were almost indications of a challenge.  Flipping to the next page of Liyue and Sumeru after their phrases, there are rough sketches of the view of their respective places  -  Liyue seems to be at Qingyun Peak, and Sumeru's is a view from the top of the tree in the main city.

Wolves in Mondstadt is the one thing that doesn’t make sense at first.

It took Katsuki some time to actually get the chance to sketch the “wolves” he was talking about, but when he did, they were no ordinary wolves.  In fact, he was referring to the Rifthounds this entire time, who have since taken up residence in Wolvendom.

He makes a point of labelling them as “vanishing assholes” with a droplet of blood next to the drawing.

VISION. Friendship Lv. 6.

Katsuki was bestowed his Vision at a very young age.

It was shortly after he reaffirmed with his mother and father that he was going to be an adventurer and he needed to start training as soon as he could.  His mother agreed to help him learn hand-to-hand combat.

After two weeks in, in another session with the two of them practicing, his mother tested his resilience and questioned if he even believed that he could beat anyone he met.

Katsuki, being of an indomitable will, quickly argued back.  He told her that he would do more than beat her;  he would surpass her, and then his next teacher and the next, all the way to that adventurer he admired so much.  He said he would soar above everyone else.  And as he said so, as he threw his next punch, the warming feeling filled his closed palm and a small explosion ignited when he made contact with his mother’s hand.

Despite the suddenness of the event and the panic a young Katsuki had, the young boy finally looked at the hand which had sparked the tiny explosion.  On its palm, a Pyro Vision.

Katsuki’s eyes shone with a new light unseen before.  And though he wanted to celebrate this gift from the Gods and Celestia immediately, his mother ushered for him to hide it, to only ever use his newly found power away from prying eyes, fear evident on her face. The Vision Hunt Decree - if he'd lose it, then his ambition would be lost, and he'd be a shell of the boy he was.

But late that night, he couldn't wipe the grin from his face; he was blessed.
