-hunggrey :3c

hiii thank u so much ahh!! i only really have a few since im more into other things and haven't thought tooooo much abt this one but here they are:') im feeling a lil better today tho ty!

diluc

- definitely lets himself go hungry a lot :(

- he has a reputable image to uphold given his position as not only a member of the ragnvindr clan, but also the heir to the empire of mondstadt's biggest wine industry. he's seen as an idolised hero and the finest eligible bachelor rather than a normal human by most of mond - so when his stoic image is affected by very normal human, loud stomach growls, my boy is humiliated

- hunger plagues him almost constantly with the amount of work he takes on, overexerting himself as well as leaving his poor tum neglected and unfed. his stomach growls throughout the day in protest, growing louder by the hour, but he just brushes it off and distracts himself with the task at hand

- his tummy is noisy. low rumbles emit from his stomach as it gurgles unhappily, the emptiness inside him begging for energy and nourishment. even when he does satisfy his hunger, the upset grumbles are only replaced by those of digestion. his tummy gets particularly noisy when he works as a bartender at angel's share; the smell of delicious food and wine is detrimental to his neglected stomach, his previously avoidable hunger cues now turning into ravenous starvation as tight cramps size his stomach

- it's not often that others notice or point it out, but when they do, he gets v flustered and embarrassed. as the master of one of the most aristocratic clans of mond, he was raised with certain etiquette and expectations, and finds it embarrassing to be seen as needing of anything. he declines any offers for food, claiming to be busy or brushing it off as digestion

- and ofc most ppl believe this! except for adelinde, who raises her eyebrows (but does not say anything for it is not her place), and kaeya, who only holds back an entertained grin at his suffering (and humiliates him further with comments about how the pipes in the building must be broken, or a thunder storm must be approaching mondstadt)

- and of course thoma, who, much to his embarrassment, pats his aching stomach and says let's get some food in here, big guy while leading him to the kitchens - he used to overwork himself too, and so catches onto all the signs of diluc's burnout

- i feel like diluc is one of those people always nagging those he cares about with how they need to eat and look after themselves to function - but he doesn't feel the need to look after himself. he pushes himself and his limits, with work always taking priority over feeding himself or getting enough sleep. so unfortunately for him, he'll continue to stay hungry and embarrassed until he begins to take better care of himself

kaeya

- hunger is something that kaeya is very familiar with, beginning with the neglect in his childhood

- being adopted into the ragnvindr household introduced him to many new things - a warm bed, solid walls, and three meals a day. the feeling of being full. of being safe and loved.

- now, however, kaeya doesn't believe himself safe. even less so does he believe that he's loved, and even if he was, it wasn't something he deserved. none of the cozy aspects of life the winery provided were things he deserved.

- three meals a day dwindle down to small bites throughout the day, replaced instead with far too much whiskey and wine. when the pestering emptiness knotted deep within his stomach grows too painful or distracting, he placates it by throwing down another drink or eating a quick cereal bar, leading to his stomach complaining even louder for something more nutritious

- his groaning tummy doesn't bother him much; it's distracting when he's in his otherwise silent office doing paperwork, sure, and the sloshing of alcohol in an empty stomach feels a bit off-putting when he's on the field, but it's nothing he can't ignore. he usually just ghosts a hand over his middle as he signs off on stacks of forms, absently noting that while it doesn't do much to calm down the noise, the sharp pain in his belly somewhat improves under the touch

- the racket his hunger can create does bother him in official meetings however. insistent gurgles reverberate through his distressed stomach, almost deafening in the quiet, uptight atmosphere of the favonius meetings and conferences. it's only then that he garners any sense of decorum about the matter, pressing a palm into his belly and murmuring small apologies with a shy blush as he tries to ease his tummy rumbles

kazuha

- kazuha goes hungry pretty often - he's a wanderer after all, and food and rations are not the easiest to come by, let alone materials to start a little fire for cooking. he gets cold quickly when he's hungry, and begins to daydream of different foods as he treks on. his hunger pangs becoming more painful, but somehow he's unable to stop - rich mondstadt dishes, spicy inszuman meals, sweet, decadent desserts

- he has a bit of a sweettooth; even when he has eaten enough to keep him powering on through the day, his mind turns to chocolate and sweets, which are difficult to come by unless visiting big cities and bustling ports. he hasn't tasted the sweet sugar or rich coco in so long that the cravings are impossible to shake off, and his tummy starts to feel empty again already

- when he's tossing and turning and unable to sleep with his empty, aching stomach, he tries to subdue the hollow pain with distracting belly rubs. he presses a hand hard into his stomach, rubbing deep, pressured circles in an attempt to ease the cramps deep within his stomach

- he tries to keep it to himself. he doesn't like to trouble other people with his problems - on top of that tomo's a big guy, and definitely has gone hungry during his travels much more often. if he heard kazuha complaining about something so miniscule, he'd doubtlessly be annoyed

- unfortunately, kazuha is an open book, and tomo can tell the minute he starts to daydream about sweet desserts, eyes big and glassy and stomach grumbling quietly, limbs shaking from the cold. when they cuddle up to fall asleep, he reaches over and replaces kazuha's hand with his own. he gently rubs his small tummy, aching and groaning beneath his hand, sometimes pressing small kisses to the soft skin. the shorter boy leans in to the touch in search for relief; from the sharp pain, from the cravings, from the cold that the lack of food has let seep in. when he wakes up in the morning, the hollow pit in his stomach the first thing on his mind, he feels a little guilty that tomo is always the one to take care of him. carefully removing his hands from where he fell asleep holding his tummy, he sets out to find breakfast for the two of them

cyno/tighnari

- tighnari is a huge advocate of self-care and nourishing yourself. as a forest ranger, he understands organic life more than the majority, and has a strong appreciation for the beauty and strength that can come from simply looking after it correctly

- (treat yourself how you would treat a plant, he tells cyno. and your flowers will grow strong.

i come from the desert, cyno tells him. cacti do not need nourishment.)

- unfortunately tighnari's love for nature often leads to him becoming distracted by his work. time seems to fly by as he cures the forest of the remaining effects of the withering zones; reviving the vegetation, inspecting how each species has been affected differently, safely cleaning up any remaining withering substances, as well as standing his own against the monsters it attracts. it's harder than it first appears, and he often underestimates how much he needs to eat on these days as the laborious work eats up all of his energy. his stomach is quick to remind him with the growing vibrations of hungry rumbles.

- tighnari occasionally getting distracted by work is one thing. cyno is a whole other story; the mahamatra has been drowning in paperwork with all the changes to the akademiya. his own hunger is often a reminder to check up on his partner, and tighnari finds himself visiting cyno more than usual during the weeks he does withering clean-ups; always with food in hand. just in case.

- just in case with tighnari always turns out to be i called it, and it's no different with his assumptions about cyno. when he visits, the mahamatra has often fallen asleep half way through a form, head on the desk and drool on the corner of his mouth. if his body cannot gain energy from food, it must find other ways. other times, he finds him on his way back from a confrontation in the desert, hand on his stomach and scowl on his face, squinting past the stars that dance in his vision and the city that spins around him

- each time, tighnari gently wakes him up with a tummy rub to smooth out the tight cramps of his muscles seizing up, or takes his hand to steady him and leads him back to his office where he feeds him small bites. he resists any teasing or i told you sos - cyno gets moody when he's hungry, and he doesn't want to be a victim of any silent treatment or petty comments

alhaitam/kaveh

- hunger isn't something alhaitham is used to. he's a calculating guy and can predict just about anything his body will need depending on what the day is expected to bring. his meals are routine, made to both fuel and nurture him

- kaveh leaps at the chance to bitch about this (anything alhaitham does differently, kaveh will find a way to bitch). he accuses him of being bland, of being psychotic, of having no love in his life and being an empty shell of a human being - food was made to eat with joy and excitement. not to fuel yourself.

- despite his words, alhaitham notices that kaveh doesn't seem to eat much, whether it's joyfully or routinely. the silence in the study as they both examine and work on their respective materials is broken only by low, guttural rumbles of a starving stomach. alhaitham used to make mean comments - have you had anything today other than alcohol? and no wonder you so easily lose your temper at everybody who loves you. these days, alhaitham bites back any petty comments. he reminds kaveh to eat numerous times throughout the day, and if he still won't stop neglecting himself, there must be a bigger issue at hand. perhaps being kind and gentle, something kaveh cannot do for himself, is the only way to get this idiot to look after himself

- often, kaveh lets the hunger to persist for so long that it has pivoted from pain to nausea. even if his pride would let him accept anything the scribe offers him, the dizzying sickness stops him from being able to stomach anything. reluctantly, he comes to alhaitham and asks if he has any medicine. knowing what this really means, he only gives him a told you so look before putting down his book patting his lap. kaveh clambers up and makes himself comfortable, blushing the entire time. alhaitham keeps his hands light as he rubs gentle circles into his upset tummy, softly chiding him for not listening to his body

- you're already a tortured artist, he says, frowning to himself as he feels the sharp edges of ribs and a concave stomach beneath his hands. let's try to abstain from adding 'starving' to the repertoire just yet

- once the nausea has somewhat subsided, alhaitham cooks something small and palatable for his sensitive stomach. something that they can eat together with more regret than joy, the blonde hanging his head low in shame as his plate is served up. despite his embarrassment, he still manages a small thank you each time, his quivering tone and big eyes indicating it is for much more than the food in front of him

Thinking of...

Small TW: Knifes, Blood (but nothing too specific and too gory), Diluc being a total simp and total emo Batman ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Helpless!Diluc who's having the biggest crush on you, but in the same time is too shy to even talk to you. Unbelievable, right?

This Diluc Ragnvindr, this big, scary man, always so serious and stoic. The owner of the best winery in the Mondstadt, and a famous bar called Angel's Share.

But yes, it is true that everytime he sees you, his knees are getting weak.

How, you would ask? Let me explain.

He saw you once, he saw you twice, nothing out of ordinary. He knew your name, your face since you were his regular client. You were nice, funny, respectful to his boundaries.

And surprisingly, talking with you wasn't so... Tiring. Kaeya and Venti are the reasons for his daily migraine so small chat with someone... Not blinded by alcohol was very refreshing. Even if never was into small talk.

Before he realized, he started to wonder when you'll come to bar again, what will you two talk about or which drink you'll like to have today.

You helped him find colors in this black and white world filled with so much darkness. Helped him smile again after death of his father. Helped him feel full again.

He wished to have a chance to meet you outside of a bar... To get to know you better, what you like or not. What is your favorite drink, color, game. But didn't know it'll happen faster than he thinks.

You, as a normal citizen of Mondstadt, were just minding your business. Night came in one strike, sending thousands of stars above you and a shiny moon that lit up your way.

It was something near 10 pm, as you were walking slowly back to the main city from Springvale. It's been an incredible family dinner, you must say.

Time passed as you got through the gates of city, soldiers saying you quick "good evening" before going back to guard the entrance.

Lost in your thoughts, and amazed by the beautiful night sky, surprisingly, you felt a harsh movement, and before you could even think of any reaction, your back was pushed against the wall.

A Treasure Hoarder? What on the Celestia is he doing here? You wanted to scream, but he quickly covered your mouth with his hand, and put a knife right under your chin.

"Scream and I'll make you know how does it feel to loose your head."

"Hurt them and I'll make you burn alive"

Another person came into the scene, dark black coat covering their body, a flamy red hair tucked into high ponytail and a white mask that hides their facial features, leaving only eyes and mouth.

They held a giant red and black clamore that clearly matches their appearance.

This, in fact, was your first time meeting outside the bar.

And surely not last.

"Just stay still!" You murmured nervously, clenching your teeth. His white shirt, now blood stained from his wound. Bleeding already stopped but his whole body still shivered in pain, esper when you touched it with a bandage.

He was hissing and groaning in pain as you clear his body from his own blood.

How had this happened? Well, the Treasure Hoarder wasn’t alone.

In the rush of the moment, another man came into the scene— he had a bow in his hands as he shot the Darknight Hero, who tried to protect you with his body.

Arrow got right into his arm, ripping his coat, skin and flesh, sending a wave of sharp pain through his body.

Diluc was wounded before, and he knew how to deal with problems like this. Even if still in pain, he kicked both of thieves out of the City, giving them a lesson of their lives.

He almost escaped, well, almost.

You took him by the hand and ignoring all his protests (which was pretty impressing, he's far taller and stronger, how the hell did you do that???), you lead him to your own house, proposing that you'll take care of his wounds.

And that's how he ended up here like this.

Which is actually pretty funny, he thought about meeting you, going on some dinner or tea, or even spending an evening in your or his house but this? This wasn't the thing he was imaging.

"I'm... Ugh, trying" he hisses again, feeling the cold material being slowly wrapped around his hurting arm. You bit your lip, focused on not hurting him more. At the same time, you felt like the awkward silence wasn't helping much in this situation.

You sigh loudly, looking at his bare back. Diluc in the meantime started to get a little bit nervous. Maybe he really should leave? Now, you know about his second identity, you're thinking Archons know what about him now.

"You know" he started, slowly pressing on his feet.

"I shouldn't waste your time, I'll just go-"

"Please stay" you grab his forearm, gently but strong enough to catch his attention.

"What?" he asked slowly, staring into your eyes.

Even if his who back hurted, even if his mind rushed with thousand of thoughts, he couldn't, just couldn't took his eyes from you.

"You're hurt... Please... I want to help you. Just like you helped me." From his forearm, your hand slipped slowly into his bigger one.

You stroke his hand with your thumb and this one small action already made him melt in place.

He slowly sat next to you, trying to get a grip on his words.

And then he slowly said.

"You've already helped me more than you think"

Thank you so much for Reading!!!

CWs: Slight argument | Hurt/Comfort | GN reader

“I’ve liked you for so long, ___. It took me years to gather the courage to say this, so won’t you accept my confession?” 

Light rain drizzled all around you in the early hours of the morning, the sun beginning to paint the midnight sky with brilliant hues of orange and red. The atmosphere was quiet, with nothing but a few birds chirping in the distance. Kaeya held a single cecelia held in his hand towards you, a symbol of the true heart of his unbound soul. 

Both of you had been friends for years, starting when he first arrived in Mondstat as a small child. You would occasionally see him in the marketplace, wandering around with Diluc. Having not seen him around before, you decided to go up to him and start a conversation. “Hello, boy I haven’t seen before! Where are you from?” You guessed he was slightly caught off guard, as he gripped on to Dluc’s arm with widned eyes.

 “I don’t know where he’s from, but he’s my brother, and his name is Kaeya!” Diluc replied, beaming at you. The three of you spent the next few minutes talking about anything and everything, mostly getting to know Kaeya better. He told you about the eyepatch he had in his pocket, explaining to you that tt was a gift from his grandfather, and he wore it when playing pretend pirates with his brother. 

“That’s so cool! We should all play pirates one day!” You exclaimed, fumbling with the eyepatch that Kaeya had let you hold. Diluc suggested that you should come over to the manor and play with them, which you vehemently agreed to. “Sure! I’ll go ask my father, I’m sure he’ll let me go.” And with that, you parted ways with them and headed back home, the afternoon sun still shining brightly in the sky.

As soon as you opened the door to your home, you ran towards your father at an incredible speed, jumping into his open arms. “Father! I’ve been invited to a playdate!” He smiled in amusement, eyes crinkling. “Is that so? Who invited you?” Without hesitation, you told him about your encounter with the Ragnvindr brothers that afternoon, emphasising on Kaeya and his very intriguing eyepatch. However, your fathers face twisted into a frown, much to your confusion. Was he displeased with this information? It couldn’t be. After all, he’s the one who suggeste you go out into the town and make new friends. “As much as I would like you to socalise with other kids from Mondstat, I’m not quite keen on this.”

You tilted your head in confusion, prompting him to elaborate, Your father cleared his throat awkwardly, continuing, “There’s no polite way to say this, my dear child, but I’m afraid that the kid named Kaeya is…bad news.” Not believing your ears, you demanded evidence to support his claim. “No way! He’s a mice person! He even lent me his eyepatch today because I wanted to play with it…” Your father averted his eyes, telling you about how there were rumours circulating about how he might be a child from Khaenri’ah, and that he had been found by the Ragnvindersin the ruins of the fallen nation. “He might be dangerous, and I don’t want you to get hurt/ I only want the best for you, so please trust my decision to keep you safe.” 

A sulky expression made its way onto your face, but you decided to heed your father’s warning, breaking the news to Kaeya and Diluc with tears in your eyes. You left out the information about your father’s opinions towards Kaeya, not wanting to scare away the new friends you made. Kaeya gently patted your shoulder, albeit with slight hesitation. “Awh. Maybe another time then.” 

As years passed, you still regularly met up with the brothers under the guise of going into town to buy groceries. 

But after Crepus’ death, things just weren’t the same anymore. When you attended his funeral, you could feel the tension in the air between the both of them, thick enough that you could cut it with a knife. Getting the feeling that it was a personal dispute, you payed your respects and left after it was over. You just hoped the matter between Diluc and Kaeya would be resolved soon. 

Your prayers were not answered, as the distance between them only seemed to grow whenever you saw them. News spread around about how Diluc left the knights and took over his father’s wine business. Growing worried for them, you decided to pay a visit to the Dawn Winery to check up on them. 

“Hello, Ms/Mr.Mx ____. It’s good to see you again.” The woman you knew as Adeline stood before you, beckoning you inside the house.”Is DIluc or Kaeya home at the moment?” You asked. Her usually vague smile slowly transformed into an unreadable expression, not quite a smile but not a frown either. And on that day, right outside of the place you had so often snuck out of your own home to visit, you learned about Kaeya’s confession of being a spy for his fallen nation and the rift that had been created between the brothers. 

You did not hear from either of them since that day. 

Only after  the next few years, when things had eventually calmed down slightly, did you start getting glimpses of them again. Diluc had secluded himself somewhere in Mondstat, only seen when he’s on bartender duty,  but Kaeya roamed the city much more, appearing in the Angel’s Share almost every night. So you gathered up the courage and finally went to talk to him again. 

The sound of you pushing the heavy wooden door open was drowned out by all the ruckus that the drunkards were making. It was only nine in the evening, but a few of them already had flushed cheeks and spoke in slurs. You guessed that maybe some of them had a  particularly rough day at work. After a quick scan of the tavern, you spotted a head of blue hair sat right in front of the counter. You inhaled and exhaled quickly, making your way to Kaeya before you could chicken out. Your heart was pounding in your heart like you were gong to be put in a cage surrounded by bloodthirsty hounds, and not just going to talk to your childhood friend. 

“Hey.” You nervously tapped his shoulder. What if he didn’t recognise you after you had been apart for so long? You don’t know why, but that thought invoked some unknown feeling in you, like your stomach was being twisted into knots. He turned his head around, and you were met with striking blue eyes. You took in his appearance, noting that he now donned the eyepatch that you had so often played with as children. Kaeya’s eyes blew wide, voice barely above a whisper as he murmured, “___? Is that really you?” That almost made you chuckle. “Who else could it be?” 

Something about the subtle relief in his eyes brought a smile to your face. You sat down on the vacant bar stool beside him and ordered yourself something that you liked. You felt like that day was counted as a special occasion, after all. 

“What brings you here? I’ve never seen you here before.” Although Kaeya’s face was dusted with red, his speech had not been affected by the alcohol yet. You were glad for that, so you could at have a meaningful conversation with him while he was in the right headspace. “So, why’ve you been ignoring me for so long? I feel like its been years since we last talked.” You tried to make your statement sound lighthearted, but it could do nothing to soften the hurt tone lying underneath it. Kaeya seemed to be deep in thought before coming up with a response. 

“I…I thought you would’ve hated me, y’know, with everything that happened. I assume Adeline would have told you if you asked.” Kaeya muttered, clutching the glass in his hand tighter. 

“So you decided the best course of action was to ignore me?” You said, looking up for a moment to receive your drink from Charles with a small ‘thank you’. Kaeya shrugged his shoulders, taking a sip from his glass as if saying, “What else was I supposed to do?” 

You sighed. “Maybe you could tell me the whole story. Why did you do it? I wouldn’t immediately pin you as the villain, you know.” He glanced at you. “Well, I didn’t know whether you would’ve wanted to hear me out…but now I guess that you’ve said that…” You sensed that he wasn’t quite comfortable with discussing such personal matters in public, so the both of you sat there and chatted for awhile, finished your drinks and headed out of the door. 

Kaeya offered his hand out to you with a smirk. “Shall I escort you home?” You shook your head, replying,” Maybe another time. We still have a lot to talk about, after all.” He dropped his smirk and led you to a nearby bench. The atmosphere was quite silent for the city of freedom, the only sounds being the faint cheering that could be heard from the bar and the sound of leaves jostling against each other.

And after that, it took a few minutes of comfortable silence for Kaeya to open up to you about everything, just like that. He told you his side of the story, from start to finish, the remorse that he felt now, and how he wished that he could turn back time. When his voice started to shake, you gently intertwined your hands to ground him. 

After that encounter, the both of you started meeting up increasingly often, having drinks at the tavern or finishing commissions together for some extra mora. Over time, you could feel the wide gap that has been built between you and Kaeya close, bit by bit. You found your gaze lingering on the Calvary Captain for slightly too long sometimes, happening when you were at the Angel’s share, and he was slightly tipsy and spilling drama at work to you, or when his steel sword deflected an attack aimed at your blind spots. Kaeya’s hand lightly brushing  against yours when he was grabbing his drink also occasionally  triggered a light blush on your face. 

Surely, you shouldn’t be thinking about your best friend this way. Was it due to the fact that you haven’t seen him in such a long time, that every small interaction could manage to fill you with such indescribable emotion?

After a few days of coming back from work only to lie in bed and ponder, you have come to the conclusion that you liked Kaeya. You actually liked Kaeya Alberich, your friend since forever. Oh archons, how were you going to work this out? There was no possible way he could like you back, and although it had been years, your father still had not changed his opinion on the Calvary Captain. “I told you he was dangerous.” he would say, 

You carried these personal feelings with you for months, behaviours changing ever so slightly to not make them known to anyone else. Unconsciously drawing your hand back whenever Kaeya’s got too close, and being hyperaware of where the enemies’ attacks were aimed at so he couldn’t get too close to you. You even took up a few more commissions per week than you would usually take so there would be lesser chances of running into Kaeya. Okay, maybe you weren’t that subtle. But who could blame you? Whenever you saw him, it felt like a swarm of butterflies hatched in your stomach and your brain started to reboot. Maybe if you just ignored your feelings, they would eventually go away. 

After a few successful months trying your best to cut down interactions with Kaeya, you were met with quite the surprise.

Right outside your door at an ungodly hour, was Kaeya Alberich. 

“Good morning, ___. I take it you just woke up?”

You nodded.

The two of you conversed for a bit, before the conversation took a slight turn, leading to Kaeya pulling out a bouquet of flowers and shyly confessing, 

“This may a bit sudden to you, but I’ve liked you for so long, ___. It took me years to gather the courage to say this, so won’t you accept my confession?” 

Light rain drizzled all around you in the early hours of the morning, the sun beginning to paint the midnight sky with brilliant hues of orange and red. The atmosphere was quiet, with nothing but a few birds chirping in the distance. Kaeya held a single cecelia held in his hand towards you, a symbol of the true heart of his unbound soul. 

“Kaeya? What are you doing here? It’s five in the morning…” You mumbled, barely registering the words that came out of his mouth. He stayed silent as your brain processed what he said. “Wait- what?” You couldn’t believe your ears. Were you hallucinating? A side effect of being abruptly woken up?

But it didn’t make sense. Haven’t you been interacting with him less the past few months? WHat had prompted this sudden confession out of nowhere. “But…this is way too sudden. We haven’t even talked that much in the past few months.Why are you suddenly confessing to me?”

Of course, natural you were thrilled that the person you liked was right outside your door, professing their feelings to you, wich was a far-fetched dream for others. But you also wanted to know the reasons behind it. What if this was just a spur of he moment thing?

“I-” “___, who’re you talking to?” Before Kaeya could finish speaking, your father’s voice could be heard from behind you. You froze up, knowing his disapproval towards Kaeya. “Oh- it’s just one of my friends-” You sputtered, hurriedly trying to shut the door, but it was too late. Your father had already caught a glimpse of him.

The sleepiness seemed to dissipate from his expression and it quickly turned into one of irritation. “What business do you have here, Mr.Alberich?” Your father asked, his voice adopting a biting tone. 

Kaeya, unaware of just how much your father disliked him, told him the honest truth. This only seemed to make things worse, as your father started to chase him away from the house.

“Someone like you, trying to court my child? How preposterous!” He yelled, trying to get past you to confront Kaeya. The latter was slightly taken aback by his hostility, saying, “I don’t understand, sir-” This only agitated your father even more, compelling him to spill out all the nasty rumors about Kaeya and his past. “I don’t want such a person to even be near my child. Leave now.” 

Kaeya’s eyes widened, mouth twisting into a frown. Were those tears brimming on the edge of his eyes, or just a trick being played by the rising sun? “I…I see. Well, I’ll see you next time, __” He said, and promptly left.

“There won’t be any next time.” Your father grumbled as Kaeya’s figure became smaller and smaller in the distance. “What a troublesome man.” Your father said, and went upstairs with heavy footsteps. The blue hair slowly fading into the sunrise somehow made your heart ache, like Kaeya was a piece of you that was drifting away. 

You stood at your doorstep for a few more minutes, then headed back inside your home to get ready for the day. It’s okay. You reassured yourself. I can talk it out with him today. 

But you didn’t see him that day. Nor the next day. Nor the next. Or the next. Where could he have possibly gone? You’ve tried asking around, but got no actual lead to where he might be.

It was only when you went to the Knights Of Favonuis headquarters, was when Jean told you that he had taken up a more difficult mission just a few days ago. “Is there any particular reason you’re asking me this?” You shook your head, thanking her before rushing out of the office. What had your father done? Maybe if he had just put his prejudices aside for a moment and saw Kaeya for who he actually was, things would have turned out better.

You carried this regret with you for what felt like an eternity. Days blurred into weeks and months, until you realised that nearly two years had passed since that fateful day. Your father saw your heart-rending state and tried to apologise and change his ways, but it did little to mend your broken heart.

When people describe heartbreak, they say it’s like their heart has been split into two, and they had to get up to fix it by themselves or with the help of other people. But for you, it felt like a big chunk of your heart had been torn from you, and you were left to wander the endless universe to find it again. What a sad fate. 

Another few years passed, and you slowly began to live life again. You started going out with your friends more often, sitting in the library for hours poring over storybooks, and going to the marketplace everyday to try new food. Although you still weren’t completely over what happened a few years back, it definitely felt more refreshing to not focus so much on it and start focusing more on what was happening in life. Until one day, while you were out on a commission out on Galesong Hill, you saw a familiar figure out of the corner of your eye.

No. Focus. It couldn’t possibly be him. You ignored it until you heard a silky voice come from behind you. “Did you miss me?” Reluctantly, you turned around and was met face to face with the one and only, Kaeya Alberich. The sun was beginning to set, and it reminded you all to well of the scene that unfolded last time. But this time, it was just the two of you, with nothing but flora surrounding you, and no possible interferences. The poorly stitched together part of your heart that you had tried to replace with other things began to fall apart and bleed, but you nonchalantly accepted it, and ran into Kaeya’s open arms. 

Then you cried. All the built up emotions that you had tried to mask came crashing down, shattering like glass. You tried your hardest to silently sob into his shirt by biting on your lips, but to no avail. But Kaeya didn’t let go. Instead, he rubbed soothing circles on the back of your neck and held you close to him–close enough to feel his heartbeat. It was a comforting feeling, slowly but surely relieving you of any emotional pain you felt. So when you felt a few tears stain the back of your clothes, you didn’t say anything. 

When your tears finally halted and you let go of him, you shouted,, “Of course I missed you! Where have you been all these years?” “I…thought you wouldn’t have wanted to see me after that encounter with your father.” He explained, eyes downcast. This made you demand a proper explanation even more.

“There you go with your self-depreciating attitude again! When will you ever learn that you can just talk to me about any issues you have instead of running away…” You said with gritted teeth, intertwining your hands with hs. Kaeya looked shocked by your sudden outburst, but squeezed your hands and reassured you that he would. “I’m sorry. I won’t do it again next time, I promise. I regret ever making you cry like this. When I see you like this and know it’s because of me…it doesn’t invoke nice feelings in me.” 

You sighed. “I’ll accept your apology for now, but later on, you’ll have to give me a better explanation.” Kaeya nodded. 

“So, can I confess to you properly now? Without anyone interrupting us, I mean.” He smirked, trying to lighten the mood. You laughed, slapping him lightly on the arm. “Of course you can.”

[suguru-getos]

me hehe matchup hehe me me me

i know you know who i want and such but i want your genuine opinions. you don’t even need descriptions so i won’t make u read. ily.

ily too 🫶🏻

i match you w the following:

geto suguru because he’s perfect hello? you should thank heavens i’m sharing him with you 😭 but only cause its you. he is very understanding, knows what you want, what triggers you, what makes you happy. a very good listener and extremely charismatic and upfront with the way he shows his love. he tends to look calm and composed but he has a fun side which you can bring out easily.

bakugou katsuki would hate your guts at first let’s be real he doesn’t know why you’re so loud and yet so hot? doesn’t match … also because he’s competitive and you bring a subtle way of challenging him unknowingly. once you show him your softer side he still pretends he doesn’t care until one day he would just bring you ramen because why didn’t you come down to the dorm dining room for dinner? you tell him you had already eaten and that flusters him and makes him realize that woah why the fuck am i standing here with bloody ramen for her??!! things change from then onwards. he’s kylee’s biggest simp and wears that tag proudly.

diluc: okay so i know you don’t know much about him but he’s an intj and a business tycoon of the country of monstadt. he is a wine tycoon and has a winery named as dawn winery. he posesses the power of pyro (fire) and is extremely reserved but deeply caring. he owns a bar called as angel’s share and i think he’d be enamored by you working there and one of the people just drunkenly tried to hit on you but aristocrat sir diluc sir 💕🫶🏻 saved the day. he would later on share the traumas of his life but he would be a little extra-protective in a way because he doesn’t want to lose you.

[meili-sheep]

(Diluc ships) Out of all of Diluc's hairstyles, which do they like the most? The high ponytail? Do they like it more when he lets his hair down? The low ponytail? And what about those rare hairstyles, like in a braid or in a bun. (Yes, I know this is a tough question. Even I don't think I can choose which I like the most.)

So let us break this down.

Normal Diluc Low Ponytail

So the first thing about this group is that these are Diluc enjoyers. The simp-est of the Diluc simps. They appreciate the other hairstyle Dilucs. But The classic Diluc's where they started that that's what they love the most. In this club, we have Thoma, Itto, and Childe.

Thoma and Childe, in particular, like taking part in Diluc's hair care. And they are the only ones with permission for Adelinde to help wash Diluc's Hair.

Itto likes playing with Diluc's hair but isn't allowed cause he tends to pull too tightly. Or ends up getting things tangled in it.

Either way all three love the classic look.

Hair Down

This is the group that particularly loves the red color and wave of Diluc's hair. And love seeing it around his face. They are also Diluc simps but tend to not look like they are. So we have Zhongli, Kaveh, and Ayato. All three LOVE sneaking behind Diluc and pulling out Diluc's ponytail. Which annoys him a ton. But the thing is, they all give him a lot of affection after pulling his hair down. Lots of hugs and kisses. Diluc can never stay mad for long.

The High Ponytail.

This is where Xiao and Eula sit. They tend to be more practical and don't really have a strong opinion on how Diluc wears his hair UNTILL HE PUTS HIS HAIR UP.

The moment the high ponytail goes up, these two are absolute lost causes. The others they are simps, but they are pretty consistently simps, so it becomes not as noticeable. These two, when the high ponytail and shit get real, they become the BIGGEST SIMPS known to gooddamn man. Like full shirt and glow sticks simps.

Other (Bun/Braid)

This is Albedo and Al Haitham's spot. They love the normal Diluc look. But love experimenting with his look. Albedo has a minor preference for the low loose braid, while Al Haitham is more of a bun man. They both love giving Diluc hair accessories. And Zhongli is occasionally a weekend visitor here, but honestly, he just enjoys putting Diluc's hair down more than he likes putting it up.

[jamrroll]

I’ve done a thing

Extra thoughts:

First 5*: Lost my 50/50(on Venti) to Keqing. I’m still salty.

Favorite: Diluc is the favorite 5*, not the favorite.. (it’s Kaveh)

Most Money: ✨F2P, don’t spend money✨(maybe you could say Diluc because I got his costume but 1) it wasn’t my money, it was a birthday present 2) I assumed it meant spent money spent on pulls)

Benched Instantly: Can you tell I hate her? I have used Keqing like one time at most.

Love at First Sight: Did her trial and was like: I WANT

The Kin: I do kin Cyno(←Jam is always making dumb jokes only he find funny and then is the only one that laughs because he’s his own biggest fan, also he gets obsessed with things(like Genshin) the way Cyno is obsessed with TCG) but I kin Kaveh more, but again, not a 5* (my sibling tried to tell me I kin Albedo because I’m an obsessive anti-social reclusive hermit(I mean she’s not quite wrong-))

Simped: I don’t simp ✨

[hiraya-rawr]

They impulsively kiss you (Part 1)

→ Masterlist

→ Part 2 (Diluc, Kaeya, Childe)

Summary: They finally gather the courage to kiss you.

Characters: Albedo, Ayato, Itto x (gn!)Reader (separate)

Warnings: None - just tooth-rotting fluff!

A/N: I blushed quite a few times writing this and I hope you will too, hehe ~. I think Ayato's is my personal favorite (but I'm a giant simp for him anyway). I hope all Ayato wanters will be Ayato havers! Bring that man home! Fingers crossed for everyone. I pulled him this week and I love him a lot ♥

ALBEDO

You were bent over your desk, scribbling away in your notebook. You’ve been on this research project for months now and it started to frustrate you.

Albedo had helped you with some of the research this week and even he seemingly had hit a dead end with it, so you were starting to ask yourself if what you tried to achieve was even possible. If even he didn’t know any further, how should you?

Although overall it wasn’t just a loss, considering you got to spend some time together with Albedo alone. It was nothing romantic between you two but at least you always enjoyed being around him. Even though deep down you sometimes wished it was, you would never admit that openly though.

You continued writing down some more formulas, trying some different combinations and suddenly things started to fall into place in your head and you hurried over to your reagents, mixed them together according to the formula you just calculated, shaked it a little and - it worked!

“Yes! I finally got it, oh bless Barbatos!” You yelled and jumped up in joy.

Sucrose, who was in the lab together with you was startled because of your sudden outburst and spilled some of her reagents in the process.

“Oh damn! I didn’t mean to scare you Sucrose, I’m so sorry. Let me help you clean this.”

“It’s alright. I know you’ve been working day and night on this so… I understand.” She said quietly, already starting to wipe up the liquids she spilled, before looking at you expectantly.

“So you finally got the reaction you tried to get for months now?”

“I do, I can’t believe it!”

“You should go and show Albedo, too! I believe he should be in the library.”

“Oh, you’re right. He’ll be happy to hear it was finally a success!” You quickly grabbed your notes and the little flask with the liquid and rushed out of the laboratory and headed for the library.

Once you arrived there you flung the door open probably a bit too loud, causing Lisa to peek up from her book with a scolding look on her face though it softened again when she saw it was you.

“Oh, it’s you, cutie? Why are you in such a hurry?” She asked curiously.

“I just made the biggest breakthrough in my research and I finally got it! I got to tell Albedo. Is he here?”

“Oh, is that so? I’m not surprised you want to tell him first. He was in the library earlier and just headed down to the lake about ten minutes ago.” She chuckled and shot you a knowing look.

“What do you m-? Nevermind, anyway awesome, thanks!” You slammed the door shut again and rushed out of the Favonius Headquarters and down to the lake. It’s gotten dark outside already and the lanterns in the street were lit up. You didn’t even realize how long you’ve been working for again today. You rushed down the stairs next to the waypoint and out the gate and there you saw him.

Albedo sat in the grass by the water, sketching away in his sketchbook. You hugged your notes closer to your chest in anticipation and had a really hard time holding yourself back so you wouldn't start yelling because you were so excited to tell him about your findings.

“Albedo?” He slowly lifted his eyes off his sketchbook and looked at you over his shoulder.

“Ah, good evening. Is something the matter?”

You hastily nodded, walked over to him and sat down by his side, handing him your research notes with a proud grin. He quickly flicked through the pages and his eyes widened in surprise.

“You did it?”

“I did indeed! I wonder why it took me so long in the first place. Now that I know it, it all seems so logical. I mixed these two ingredients I noted down here together - just a slightly different method than the one we used the other day - grinded some crystalfly cores and put them in and, boom!”

You pulled out the flask with the liquid, shaked it a few times and it started glowing bright blue, so bright you almost could not look at it directly.

“I hope this is going to make a big difference. I can’t wait to show it to the Adventurer's Guild, I’m sure they could use it for their ruin explorations and – Bedo?”

He looked at you with a spellbound expression and the corners of his mouth twitched up ever so slightly. When he saw you gush about your research and saw the flask light up your smiling face he was awestruck. He was convinced he’d never seen something more perfect in his entire life before. You were far better than you gave yourself credit for all the time. Even he didn't manage to find the right formula for your research, but here you were, impressing him yet again.

With newfound courage he leaned over to you and softly pressed his lips against yours, putting his hand at the back of your neck sending your mind into a spiral and making butterflies erupt in your stomach. When he broke the kiss he looked you deep in the eyes and put his forehead against yours.

“Do you have any idea how beautiful you are, when you talk about things you’re passionate about?"

AYATO

“Okay we need some more benches here and the food stalls go over there. Please check if we have enough ingredients in stock… here is the list!”

You quickly scribble down some notes and hand it over to an assistant behind you. Saying you’d be drowning in work at the moment would be an understatement. The yearly Inazuma festival was right around the corner, in fact just this evening the gates should open and you could say the planning had reached its peak and it was far away from optimal.

As usual the Yashiro Commission was the main host for the festival and as their newest housekeeper you wanted this job to be done flawlessly. Thoma, your housekeeper colleague set the bar quite high. He wasn’t even breaking a sweat despite all the work he was doing. Meanwhile you were struggling under the workload but you knew it was going to be worth it in the end. This festival needed to be absolutely amazing - also because you wanted to keep your job.

“Alright!” Your assistant bowed his head and rushed off to take care of the things you noted down for him. Once you had a moment to yourself, you sat down and exhaled, wiping away some sweat on your forehead, going through the things in your head that you still had to get done until this evening.

“Taking a break?”

“Thoma!” You jumped back to your feet. He looked as motivated and cheerful as ever, not even a single hint of fatigue showing on his face. “I was just about to continue!” You lied and he threw you a knowing but compassionate look.

“I know how you feel, it’s a bit much, eh?” He asked to which you just nodded and looked at the ground in embarassment.

“Well, we’re almost done. Can you just hang the lanterns in the trees over there? I’ll handle the rest! Go back to the headquarters after, take a shower and get a quick power nap in. How about that?”

“Really? You will have to do so much alone then!”

“Ah, don’t worry about it, I’ve done all the organization and planning of this stage alone the past few years. I’m used to it!” Thoma just chuckled and rested one hand on your shoulder reassuringly.

“Alright, just these lanterns then. Thank you, Thoma!”

“Ah, don’t mention it!”

You grabbed the lanterns and headed over to the group of Yumemiru trees that needed decorating. But, how were you supposed to get the lanterns up there? There were no ladders in sight so climbing on there was the only plausible answer to that, so that's what you did. You only held yourself up with one hand and tried to attach the lanterns with the other one quite clumsily, legs shaking more and more and just as you got the lanterns hanging you lost your footing and fell backwards down the tree. You mentally prepared for a hard impact with the ground but instead you just bumped into something, or rather, someone soft, who got knocked to the ground with you together.

“Oh, be careful there or you’ll hurt yourself!” Oh no, you knew that voice! It was none other than…

“Lord Kamisato! Oh archons, I’m so sorry!” You quickly stood up, looking down at your boss and the Yashiro Commissioner himself, Kamisato Ayato, lying in the dirt at your feet because of your clumsiness. The thought that you’d fallen on top of him while being all sweaty, as well as ruining his pristine white suit, made you feel incredibly embarrassed. You assumed you might have to prepare to look for a new job soon because you had just royally screwed up.

“Oh no, your suit! I’ll have that cleaned immediately. Are you hurt? Please, I didn’t mean t–” You were interrupted by an amused chuckle which made you shoot him a puzzled look.

“Please, do not trouble yourself with that right now. I shall send someone else to get it cleaned later.”

He stood back up and brushed some of the dirt off his suit, looked you right in the eyes and smiled politely which made your heart skip a beat. Curse you for being so smitten with your boss.

“I will head back to the estate right now. Thoma let me know that you were done with everything, so I went looking for you, so that we could head back together.”

“Uh–, yes, of course, my Lord!”

Once you were back at the estate, you showered, put on your comfy kimono and just as you were about to lay down on your futon to rest, you heard a knock on your door. When you opened it you were quite surprised and also heavily flustered at the scene that presented itsself in front of your eyes. Ayato stood there, in a casual kimono with a sliver of his chest showing. You’d never seen him wear anything but his usual suit and you could feel the blush rise to your cheeks, your eyes transfixed on the skin you could see. Oh Archons, you’re staring.

“Uhm, what do you need, my Lord?”

You still felt embarrassed because of what happened earlier. Considering that you fell onto him, you prepared for the worst - you assumed you were about to be fired. It didn't help that you just very obviously stared at his chest either.

He took a few steps closer to you until he was standing in your room but instead of the written notice you expected, he handed you the cup he was holding.

“My servant brought these from the city, I believe he called it Dango… Boba? I wanted you to have one, too. It tastes quite pleasant.” You were a bit taken aback because you didn't quite understand why he'd bother to come to your room for this, but thanked him nonetheless and tried it. It tasted incredible, smooth on the tongue and the bubbles were like an explosion of sweetness in your mouth.

“Oh wow, it’s delicious, it's so sweet and – my lord?” You looked up and his face was suddenly dangerously close to yours. His lavender eyes darted to your lips with a look you couldn’t quite decipher and before you knew it he buried his hands in the hair on the back of your head and kissed you so longingly it made your head spin. He was glad he finally brought up the courage to do so because feeling you lean back into the kiss made him feel like the happiest man alive. When the two of you separated again his eyes had an entracing glint to them and were fixated on yours.

“It’s not as sweet as you are.”

ITTO

It was a nice summer day, the sky over Inazuma was clear and not a single cloud could be seen. Half asleep you were lying in the grass underneath one of the Yumemiru trees right outside of Inazuma city. The wind brushed softly over your hair and skin and you felt like all sorrows and worries of your everyday life were washed away at that moment.

“Oi, there you are! I’ve been looking for you everywhere. Shinobu said you went here and I– oh, did I wake you up?” A loud voice suddenly pulled you out of your half asleep state. When you slowly opened your eyes the face of a very familiar crimson oni appeared in your field of view.

Itto had been your best friend for years now and it never got boring with him. He may look intimidating at first with his horns and red markings on his skin, but once you get to know him a little better, you quickly come to realize he is a huge, dopey guy who deep down has a heart of gold. You often wished you could be more than friends but didn’t dare to act on your feelings because you feared he would reject you and that would most likely end up ruining your friendship - and you couldn't risk that. Being close to him and having him around was enough for you, or at least that’s what you constantly told yourself.

“Nah, it’s alright, I didn’t sleep - yet, at least. Just dozing off a little.” You yawned and sat up, stretching your back and arms. “So tell me, why were you looking for me?”

Itto’s eyes lit up like a christmas tree when you asked him. He pulled a slightly crumpled leaflet of some sort out of his pocket and handed it to you.

“Narukami Onikabuto Summer Tournament?” You read out aloud. You knew he loved beetle fights and had often challenged you to them as well. “I take it you want to participate?”

“Yes! And you absolutely need to help me search for a beetle. Pretty please?”

“You don’t have to ask me twice! You do know it starts in an hour already though, right?”

“Awesome… hold on wait a minute – In an hour?!” He almost screamed.

“In an hour.” You reassured him and pointed at the date and time on the leaflet he gave you.

“Oh crap, let’s go! I need to find a beetle before that! Oh shit, come on, hurry up!”

Itto immediately pulled you up and dragged you behind him by the hand. The touch of his hand made you quite flustered and you prayed he wouldn’t notice.

He led you to a spot where a lot of beetles in various sizes sat on the trees.

“Alright, now we only need to find the best one!” He said and stormed off to inspect every Onikabuto with childlike amazement in his eyes and a wide grin on his face. You followed him closely and looked around, to see if you could spot a fitting beetle yourself.

Your gaze fell onto quite an exceptional specimen high up in one of the trees nearby. You tapped Itto's shoulder and pointed at the beetle.

“How about that one?”

“Ooooh - it’s perfect. That’s the one! Come on, get on my shoulder and get it fast!” He leaned down so you could climb on him and you did, blushing slightly when you felt his hands on your shins, supporting your balance. You desperately tried to brush the thoughts out of your head and tried to concentrate on the matters at hand.

You picked the Onikabuto off the tree and placed it into Itto’s hands after he’d let you back down. For a man of his size he was surprisingly gentle and seeing him look at the beetle so adorably was a sight to behold and it made the heart in your chest flutter.

“Oh, I just knew you were gonna find the best one again! There you are, Itto Jr.! Let’s go win this tournament together, hmm?”

“Itto Jr.?” You asked, laughing and raising an eyebrow in amusement.

“Yes of course, that’s what we’re gonna name him! Come on, let's head back quickly, we can’t be late!”

You both rushed back to the city and arrived at the tournament just in time. You stood by the side the whole time and watched how Itto and Itto Jr. crushed every opponent they faced relentlessly. With every win, Itto’s smile became wider and wider until he ultimately rose victorious.

“I won!” He yelled. “Itto the one and Oni-kabuto Tamer. Haha, I can’t believe it!”

It was then he turned around and saw you standing there applauding him and smiling cutely. He couldn’t help himself - he ran over to you, quickly lifted you up with his strong arms and pressed a long and passionate kiss right on your lips. He was surprised as well about how bold he’d become all of a sudden, finally collecting the courage to do what he had meant to do for the longest time now. He only hoped it didn’t bother you when he saw you eyes widen in shock but when you leaned back into him and cupped his face with both your hands all of his doubts were washed away. When he broke the kiss he only saw that you were a flustered and blushing mess and it made his heart almost burst out of his chest.

“You have no idea, how long I’ve meant to do this already.”

Asks are open too, if you want to tell me about your pulls or anything else, they always excite me :3

Would love to know what you think, I always love reading your replies and reblogs :3

Also thank you for the support on my last drabble, love you all!

he becomes the biggest simp for you when he's drunk. he won't stop rambling to diluc about how in love with you he is.

pretending you’re not his s/o. [1]

A/n: happy Thursday!! whew, the week is almost over thank goodness. I hope you’re all doing well and thank you for being patient while I knock out these requests <333 Scaramouche’s is long for obvious reasons (I simp) ALSO thank you for 800 followers, I hit that milestone yesterday ahagdwcsh omg I’m growing so much wtf. thank you all :) <33 

Summary: the boys having to pretend their s/o is their secretary, maid, friend, etc. (someone other than their s/o)

Parings: Childe/Reader, Venti/Reader, Kaeya/Reader, Diluc/Reader, Albedo/Reader, Aether/Reader, Xiao/Reader, Chongyun/Reader, Xingqiu/Reader, Scaramouche/Reader, Razor/Reader, Bennett/Reader, Zhongli (fem and gn mixed)

Warnings: violence tbh (in Scara’s especially chile), swearing, crack, angst?, fluff

Word count: 1.7k

Requested by bestie @mintydump​ 

Refuses (tells people you’re his s/o and compromises the mission)

Childe: for some odd reason, he was sent out by the Tsaritsa to retrieve a man who was impersonating one of the eleven harbingers and you were to go along. she said men were much more willing to follow along, if there was a beautiful woman promising affection, etc. the only problem was, to win over the impersonator, you had to pretend to be Childe’s co-worker. he hated this idea, and the minute he left, he reassured you he would not call you his partner unless it was romantically. so hell yeah, he’ll compromise the mission and will return without the impersonator. he does not care, you’re not his co-worker. he’ll just be like, “sorry, next time send me alone.”

Venti: jean why... ofc you'd be great company duh, but why did you need to be his babysitter on this expedition?!? sure, Venti may look like a child, but this was stupid! he’s loose-lipped anyways, so he’ll accidentally let it slip to whoever that you’re not his babysitter and that you’re his s/o. he’ll be like, “oops.” with the biggest shit-eating grin. he doesn’t care though, you’re not his babysitter grrr. 

Razor: he also accidentally lets it slip you’re his s/o. hunters were after him and his friends, you included (you’re human, he considers you family though, therefore wolf) and he just yells, “don’t touch my mate, GRRR” before ya know, ending them lmao. it never crossed his mind that maybe it wasn’t in his/your best interest to say what you were to him. other hunters could be nearby listening and then target you at a later date. but, tbh he will worry about that another day. as long as you’re safe now, he’ll always be there to protect you. 

Refuses (he doesn’t refuse the mission, but he refuses calling you someone other than his s/o/he won’t say if you’re his s/o or not.) 

Kaeya: he definitely won’t be calling you anything other than his s/o but he also won’t offer this mission to anyone else. he’s more than capable and he can do this without you having to be in danger too. if someone asks who you are, he’ll just cooly respond with, “none of your business.” and move on. he’ll use that whenever someone asks who you are. even if someone gets a little pushy, he won’t use anything to clue them of your relationship.

Xingqiu: he was supposed to borrow steal a book from someone. he needed it for personal purposes lol; it would be great for his collection. and from his understanding, the person who has it wasn’t using it. though you were confused on why he needed to break into somewhere to retrieve it. you just happened to be with him when he broke in, he says it was an accident that you were there, but tbh it’s all part of the thrill and his mischievousness. despite Chongyun warning him that he shouldn’t have brought you, he still did. and when the person who owns the book whips out a sword and then asks why you were brought along if you seemed timid and unreluctant to steal, Xingqiu’s response is, “well she’s my girlfriend! duh.” cue deadpan. legit no hesitation.

Scaramouche: this mission is happening no matter what. the Tsaritsa’s life is on the line; highly trained assassins from all over Teyvat were sent into Snezhnayan territory to kill her. she could protect herself, but Scaramouche was feeling feverish for battle; he was one of the more unhinged and dangerous harbingers, she entrusted this task upon him. he never turned down a mission. plus, it’s your fault you’re even here. why are you here again!? he left you home in Inazuma days ago. also... who the hell was looking after your daughter if not you...?? when you caught up with him once he was well away from Liyue Harbor’s docks (so he couldn’t force you to get back onto the ship, smart) you told him you weren’t some housewife and you missed the thrill of adventure, so you snuck on the ship too. he wasn’t sure how you got on in the first place without alerting The Kanjobugyo (you’ve snuck out before, so he’s told them not to let you leave, though he assumed you used your former title of a Fatui to gain clearance) let’s just say he’s not happy you’re here, but he’s not turning back now, he’s determined to end this. in the end, he kills all the assassins (ofc). on your way back to Liyue Harbor, arguing about why you’re here (you’re losing), another assassin comes out of the shadows; intent on killing the both of you. he’d managed to grab the end of your hair in his fist and was going to slit your throat. Scaramouche will say, “don’t touch my wife, you insolent scum.” he doesn’t have a problem telling those who have a death wish of your intimate relationship, because they’ll die in the end anyway; therefore to him, it’d be like they never knew. 

Zhongli: not many people know you’re his s/o anyways, so if he has something to do, especially dangerous you’re not coming along. he’ll make sure of that. on missions or something, he refuses to call you anything other than his s/o, but if he can’t/wants to keep it private he’ll call you by your name. if you’re facing off against someone, he’ll be like, “y/n, please watch out, I’ll handle this.” he never wants to put you in danger, and tbh even someone threatening who knows your name is a risk, but if they ever found out that you were not only his s/o but the s/o of an Archon? yeah, you’d be on a hit list just like him. 

Accepts (he will do this and won’t ask any questions)

Diluc: sorry y’all, but once this is discussed in full and you agree, he’s going to accept it. this mission is important. it’s not often people travel into Inazuma, so he was very lucky his wine is sold there and that he has a popular, well-known name. shipments of his wine weren’t making it into the borders and he was to find the culprit behind it; someone was stealing obviously. you were to go along with a few other soldiers and when jean told him it would be safer to call you his maid and not his fiancé, he agreed. you wouldn’t be a target that way. if anyone wonders why he took his maid, he’ll just say, “she’s to travel everywhere with me.” don’t worry, after the missions over he’ll reassure you he doesn’t think of you as his maid, definitely not. he’ll apologize profusely. “please don’t think of yourself that way, you’re not my maid, I adore you very much, sweetheart.”

Xiao: he already doesn’t go around calling you his wife or telling just anyone, only the Archons know and the fallen Yaksha once knew (you’re one of the female Yaksha) so being talked into this wasn’t a big deal at all. before, he didn’t run around Liyue telling people about your relationship because you both enjoyed the privacy. but now, having to call you his fellow Yaksha who’s been working alongside him for centuries, kinda feels like he’s ignoring or not acknowledging you. sure, you do hold the same titles (Yaksha) and yes you’ve known eachother for centuries, but really, you’ve been together for centuries. if you’re not bothered, then he doesn’t mind. but if you are? he’s very apologetic and will repay you in some way. “you’re not a weakling, you have no reason to worry.” he needs to do this task, he’ll never turn away from the people and if you have to be known as your Yaksha title to him and others, so be it. 

Chongyun: it’s not that he doesn’t want to call you his s/o. it’s just he’s a quiet guy and never has told anyone about your relationship; only Xingqiu knows. so he has no problem introducing you as his friend to absolute strangers, especially if you’re okay with it. if you’re not and tell him, he’ll be sure to never call you a friend again. he’s really looking out for your safety, people can be two-faced as he’s learned from Xingqiu’s fantasy books. he wants to protect and keep you safe, and if you need to be addressed as his friends a few times then that’s how it’s going to go. 

Accepts (he’ll accept but he has so many questions on why and hates it)

Albedo: he will accept if there’s a logical reason. for example, if you absolutely need to come because you’re his assistant or something and can offer your expertise, he will accept. but if you have no need? you’re not coming, please stay home. the whole time, he hates this. yes, you’re his assistant irl, but you’re his s/o, not just an assistant. it makes him sick that he has to call you that tbh, even if it’s your occupation. but it’s necessary for a lot of reasons you two have already discussed. after the mission is complete, he’s never going to stop apologizing. “love, please do not take what I said to heart, you’re not just an assistant.”

Aether: he has to be talked into this a lot. once kaeya and jean tell him the seriousness and importance of seeing his sister again, especially after all they’ve discovered about her, he’ll agree. no matter how much he hates calling you his travel partner, he has to. his sister has turned to the dark side for whatever reason and this meeting already is risky enough. if she finds out you’re his girlfriend, who knows how she’ll react; she’s very unpredictable now, a little unhinged even. but it does hurt to have to call you that, let’s be real. he never wants to say or hear that ever again.

Bennett: he knows he’s quite unfortunate, so you going with him on expeditions is just stupid and you could face something awful due to his bad luck. you go either way though, what a good s/o :) he almost slips a few times, especially facing off against a few lowlife Fatui. but then you remind him of the dangers of doing that and you’re immediately just a friend/member of Benny's Adventure Team. pls, he hates this so much, like why can’t he call you what you are?!? he’s constantly like, “well why can’t I just say you’re my s/o already? they won’t harm you as long as I’m here!” ?!?!?!? HE JUST DID?!?!?!?!

[favoniuscodex]

writing kaeya and diluc as absolutely whipped for the reader is the only way to write them tbh you cannot look me in the eye and tell me kaeya or diluc wouldn't be the biggest simps for their s/o's fnjkbkg 😌

so true bestie!!! tagging this post because ;;; it got a bit long !!! :D

kaeya is the type to keep things lowkey at first. he likely has a lot of potential suitors and, while he’s really proud to date you, doesn’t want any of them making you uncomfortable. you’re his favorite secret and he’s actually kinda nervous to parade you around to the world, lest everyone else figures out how amazing you are too. 

of course, such behavior of his quickly ends when someone else attempts to ask you out. you decline, of course, all while saying that you have a boyfriend already. the suitor asks who and kaeya, in all of his glory, thanks the archons for his timing as he is able to stroll up and sling an arm around your shoulders, pulling you in close to him. after all, who would want to compete with kaeya alberich? it’s a competition that’s already been lost.

after this occurs, pda becomes kaeya’s middle name. his hands are always near yours, whether its from him playing with your fingers or holding your hand entirely. an arm around your shoulder? no problem. walking with his hand in your back pocket like you’re a couple of high schoolers? of course! constant kisses to your cheek? almost guaranteed. hell, he’ll go as far as to having you sit on his lap during meetings if you don’t stop him. kaeya’s proud that you’re his and wants to show you that he loves you by showing you off to everyone!

diluc, on the other hand, doesn’t necessarily show his love through physical touch. sure, he’ll take off one of his gloves to feel the warmth of your hand in his. he also isn’t a stranger to wandering hands when the two of you are alone, but he doesn’t flaunt you in the way his brother would. rather, diluc prefers to show the world you’re his in more subtle ways. ruby jewelry that matches his eyes? of course. he’ll even let you wear his jacket around if he’s not planning on going out any time soon... or if the weather is nice.

while gift giving isn’t his primary love language either, he does buy you a lot of presents! he has the money and, if he thinks the gift in question will make you smile, then he’ll buy it in a heartbeat. diluc is very into well thought out gifts and is almost certainly the better gift giver between the two of you for the sheer amount of dedication he puts into finding a gift that’s both unique and tailored to your interests.

diluc’s biggest love language, however, is words of affirmation. quality time is a close second, but nothing melts him into a puddle faster than you pulling him close and whispering the sweetest words to him. tell him he looks good in a shirt and he’ll make a conscious effort to wear it more often, if only to see the way your eyes slowly rake over him every time he does. tell him that you’re proud of all of the hard work he’s doing and he swears his knees go weak. but the worst offender? tell him that you love him.

diluc swears those three little words rewire his brain and he wants nothing more than to show you just how much he loves you in return, all while trying to fight back the heat that rises to his face so quickly that his head spins. he may be clumsy in return, so be patient, but archons does he love you, for you are all he has left. he just wants to show you how much he cares for you, all while revealing to you just how bad your departure would hurt him, through passionate kisses that he insists upon every time you say the phrase he loves most.

when he finally pulls away from you, temporarily satiated despite the way his irises darken and look at you like you’re his next meal, diluc will just stare at you, memorizing your features in case one day, he can’t hold you close. the quickest way to interrupt these negative thoughts of his? remind him that he needs to say he loves you in return. the three words will fall effortlessly from his lips, along with a fumbled apology, but a light laugh eases the red flush of his face, especially as you press a kiss to the tip of his nose.

[rviden]

hi doll! could I get headcanons of xiao, diluc, and kaeya being absolute simps for their s/o? sometimes they're written as sort of mean but I feel like they'd be head over heels for their lover lol

➝ the boys simping for their s/o

feat. ➝ xiao, diluc, kaeya

note ➝ all these characters give me ‘i’m teasing and or stoic around people i don’t know or trust, but only my lover gets the real me’ vibes

➝ xiao

listen here — xiao is new to everything, so he’s like a new born deer learning to walk for the first time

^ what i’m trying to say is that xiao is still figuring out affection and how to properly communicate his feelings

but ones things for sure

he was head over heels for you

the adoration he had for when you were dressed to the nines, or dressed for a lazy day; the way you laughed and the way you spoke; the way you would curl into his side, or pull him into yours

like... you don’t even have to do anything and xiao is like : yup — this is the one

out in public he’s still very reserved and cautious with what he expresses with you — but in private...

he is sitting there with heart eyes

i want a xiao ffs

➝ diluc

mesmerized man — absolutely mesmerized

he finds himself think about you constantly, even in the oddest of places

the store browsing shelves : y/n would like this

the wilderness : y/n’s favourite flower

the winery : y/n loves the view from this window

he remembers everything and anything you tell him, even if it results in him forgetting his own things

while diluc isn’t a very open man (nor is he very flashy in public) he would showcase you as if you were the finest gem the world has ever seen — taking walks around mondstadt just to show that he had the most beautiful person by his side

canonically has bragged to the knights (kaeya) about you and basically undermined everything they do with you

he’s like a soccer mom watching her kid score a goal : so goddamn happy and proud

➝ kaeya

unlike diluc... this man is flashy as hell

literally shows you off in public because of how in love he is with you

despite being the generally dominant personality in the room, kaeya will not hesitate to literally bow down and polish you boots if you asked him to

^ he’s your loyal servant at this point

but in all seriousness — in moments of privacy, kaeya is the softness, teasing person you’ll ever meet

he loves to cuddle, shower you with compliments, and just be downright the biggest simp to walk teyvat

i headcanon kaeya collects photos or trinkets for memories, and there is no doubt in my mind that he has literal hundreds of photos of either him and you, or just you

carries many of them on his person when he travels

you become his good luck charm of sorts

[catcze]

THANK GOD I WROTE IT IN MY NOTES LWKOAJS ‼️ it was like 3am when i wrote this so i apologize for the mESS 😩

AS USUAL 90S AU bc i’m a whore for it 🤨 this time it’s ur closed off acquaintance xiao, who works at a record store !!

— you’ve known xiao with all that time you spend with childe and his comically large friend group!! he seems closed off as diluc too, and a bit hostile when it comes to childe sucking up to assistant professor zhongli for a higher grade (which you’ve come to realize, the guy’s xiao’s adoptive dad!)

— you’ve never really talked to him? he’s an enigma but at the same time a clichè icon that drags the girls in with his looks and his mysterious aura !! he’s also apparently a computer sciences major?

— ur acquaintanceship comes to light when you visit a record shop nearby the campus in hopes to gift it to mr. crepus but lo and behold, there’s xiao, off of his patched up army jacket, headphones in his ears just humming to the beat of the music in his little walkman stereo. it’s a bit awkward at first but you manage to charm your way into xiao’s mind with gentle smiles !!

— i’m not gonna lie, i’m pretty sure everyone’s a simp for your little puppy attitude and so is xiao! god you’re so? innocent? it makes him feel guilty whenever he thinks about holding your hand </3 he loves the scenario that would happen if both of you would date (princely bad boy + charming common student 🤣‼️) he’s so uncharacteristically nice to you that it’s kinda suspicious? poor guy just wants to steal u away from childe and take u on drive thru cinema dates and concerts!!

— he’s quite smart too! you’ve given him your biggest puppy eyes to help u in assignments and such !! would never say no to you <3 all in all a big softie for you !! dislikes you dating childe but his intentions are more well hidden than diluc’s more than obvious pining 🤩 like diluc, wouldn’t ever say a peep about his crush on you; but i’m pretty sure hu tao would’ve already told you!!

NSFW HERE

— i fimly believe !! in my heart!! 90s xiao is a switch! more top leaning tho? there’s just something about the way xiao’s flutter when you ride him in the store’s backrooms to your heart’s content !! just use him for your personal pleasure to be honest, he’d love for you to milk him dry !! comp sci major xiao’s a HUGE pervert for you that it’s kinda cute?? willing to fuck anywhere and god his stAMINa is tHROUGH THE ROOF. begs for you to fuck him harder like the good puppy you are ‼️💖 once he’s fully satisfied with the amount of times he’s came inside you, it’s your turn, princess!

— pervert xiao.. probably jerks off to you when he’s so desperate :(( his dick is also v sensitive so be careful or else he’ll cum on you in a minute 🤣 prone to bucking his hips up bc hE’S A CUTE LITTLE PERV <3 (you can tell i’m really pushing my closet perv! xiao here 🤩) loves being messy (that is all 😋)

How Genshin Characters View the Traveler (aka crushes galore)

I know this isn't a Genshin blog but I need to get this off my chest and organize my thoughts because I believe in Aether harem supremacy ✌

Disclaimer: this is meant for fun, so don’t get your knickers in a twist

Albedo

Albedo blatantly admits that the traveler fascinates them. He'll usually ask to hear of their numerous journeys and take notes on them. He quite enjoys their company, but Albedo is pretty clueless about his own feelings, especially those of the romantic sort. He wonders why he catches himself staring at them so much.

Amber

Amber is easily one of the traveler’s biggest supporters. She almost gets a bit too excited whenever they’re around, but she’ll also outright deny that she has a crush on them if anyone were to poke fun at her. If time allows it, she’ll often ask them to go gliding around Mondstadt with her.

Ayaka

Ever since she first heard of the traveler, their accomplishments genuinely impressed Ayaka. However, once she first met them in person, she was taken aback by how attractive they were. Furthermore, once they helped her out, she gets more insight of how truly wonderful they are and her affections (hence the dance performance).

Barbara

Barbara truly believes they are an actual gift sent by Barbatos himself. Not only are they kind and helpful, but they treat her with respect as a person, not some glorified object. She tends to get flustered easily and turns shy whenever the traveler compliments her.

Beidou

Beidou likes to laugh, and she thinks the traveler is funny. She often swaps stories about fights and adventures with them, so there’s definitely a bond between them! She especially appreciates their fighting spirit and would be honored to have them join their crew or at least be a drinking buddy (despite what the traveler says).

Bennett

The traveler is essentially an idol in Bennett's eyes. He admires them so much, but it never gets to the creepy level of obsession. He jumps at the opportunity to travel with them every time. Bennett isn't really good with distinguishing feelings, but knowing that they treat him as an equal makes his stomach flutter.

Childe

Hey girlie 😏 Childe gets off to the idea of someone successfully kicking his ass or potentially being able to kill him, so he is an absolute simp for the traveler. He genuinely loves it when they show disinterest at his flirting, and he swoons whenever they're sarcastic with him. He's not pathetic, he's just a sadomasochist.

Chongyun

Frankly, Chongyun’s just happy to have another friend besides Xingqiu. He also really likes the way they don’t push him out of his comfort zone, but instead try to gently coax him out. He’s often very cold to the touch and constantly chilly, but he feels oddly warm whenever the traveler is beside him.

Diluc

Appreciates the fact that the traveler isn't full of shit (unlike some people). He's impressed by their competence and their fighting abilities, so he doesn't hesitate in complimenting them. He usually says things without really thinking through them, so sometimes Diluc says something sappy or embarrassing without meaning to.

Diona

Diona thinks the traveler may or may not be cute. She won't admit it, though. She won't admit that she cares about their wellbeing either. The traveler is just another person who's going to come and go, so there's no point in getting invested in them. It's a relatively simple crush, nothing more.

Eula

Eula is more or less impressed with the traveler. She views them as a truly reliable person that is able to get the job done. Although she may seem skeptical at times, one of her greatest fantasies is to find more rebellious people like them and break free of Mondstadt and her lineage.

Fischl

Perhaps the traveler is a dashing monarch from another world! It genuinely excites her that they follow along with her roleplaying, even when some of her messages get lost in translation. She appreciates their friendly gestures and the fact they don’t treat her like an outsider.

Ganyu

A lot of people have a difficult have a hard time understanding Ganyu’s feelings, so it came as quite as a surprise that she and the traveler clicked almost instantly. The traveler treats her as another person, not as some ancient being; this type of behavior is what made her become flustered around them in the first place ☺️

Hu Tao

Thinks they’re super cute! She’s one who’s playful and flirty; however, her ways are a bit odd. She usually tries to tell what kind of casket she’d lick out for the traveler, what she’d dress them in, etc. Sometimes, she’ll bake “special cookies” in the shapes of bones just for them.

Jean

Much like Barbara, Jean sees the traveler as a blessing. However, unlike Barbara, Jean doesn't swoon over their looks or mannerisms; frankly, she's just glad that someone rational is willing to help and not make too much of a commotion (like some certain members of the Knights of Favonius).

Kazuha

Has feelings for the traveler and makes no effort to hide them. Often times Kazuha will write them poems or haikus; sometimes he'll add dried flowers or a pretty leaf. He truly has a way with words, and it never fails to stir something inside the traveler's chest. He's very gentle and mild-mannered, so he never forces anything too heavy on them.

Kaeya

Kaeya is a humongous flirt and everyone knows it. However, he seems even more so once the traveler is in the picture, and he has the tendency of showing off in some sort of way. He knows he's attractive and uses his looks to advantage whenever he can, though he makes sure to keep it somewhat subtle.

Keqing

Keqing isn’t the type to deal with people’s shit and isn’t fond of fools. Fortunately, the traveler doesn’t fall into either of those categories, so she gets along with them quite well. She can find similarities in their personalities (like working constantly), so she appreciates the fact that she can openly discuss these sort of problems with them.

Klee

Genuinely sees them as an older sibling! Klee often goes to them for advice or to spend the day together; often times, she'll send letters or drawings whenever they're apart (and yes, the drawings usually consist of her and the traveler blowing something up).

Lisa

Another flirt, no problems asked. Lisa makes euphemisms quite a bit, and it truly brings her joy when her comments make the traveler blush. Despite being scolded by Jean to tone it down a bit, she genuinely can't help it. The traveler is her personal cutie, and it's only natural for her to treat them as such, isn't it?

Mona

She could easily tell right away that the traveler was someone special upon first glance. Mona sometimes dreams about them - especially about how they helped her out and landed her a place to stay in Mondstadt. She’s grateful for everything that the traveler has done, yet she’ll deny any feelings for them with a bright blush on her face.

Ningguang

The traveler is seen more as a pet. Ningguang is straight up the sugar mama type, and she openly flaunts it. Granted, she respects the traveler highly, but something about their being Liyue’s hero sounds very, very charming. Whether or not she makes a romantic move is entirely up to her, but it’s not out of the question.

Noelle

Needless to say, Noelle gets flustered fairly easily, so whenever the traveler shows affection and support towards her abilities, she somewhat short-circuits. She'll usually try to play off the fluttering in her heart and simply convince herself that the traveler is only being nice, but she can't deny the fact that she has feelings for them.

Qiqi

Another one that looks up to the traveler as an older sibling. She often refers to her notebook to remind herself as to why she likes them so much; they’re patient with her and genuinely try to help her remember things, plus they’ll bring her candies from Mondstadt sometimes.

Razor

Razor has no idea what romantic feelings are or how he should identify them. All he knows is that he gets excited whenever he sees the traveler, and his metaphorical tail wags furiously. He's keen on protecting them and bringing them food, plus he likes to lie next to them when they relax by the fire.

Rosaria

Like Diluc, Rosaria likes how the traveler isn’t full of shit and can actually put up a decent fight. However, she isn’t the type to compliment them, but rather points out how they can further hone their skills. If anything, she acts more like the traveler’s drunk aunt.

Sayu

She’s mostly indifferent towards the traveler, but - like with most people - she envies their height. Sayu appreciates that they don’t make fun of her size, plus they somehow always manage to find her when she’s hiding for her nap, so she’s fairly interested in what kind of person they are.

Sucrose

Like with most people, Sucrose is quite shy around the traveler, but for some reason she feels more comfortable around them than anyone else. She respects them much like she respects Albedo. She also thinks the traveler has a very nice smile.

Thoma

Thoma is another flirt, but he’s much more reserved in his ways. He’ll often make encouraging comments or flatter the traveler with a bright smile. His flirting either makes the traveler blush or it goes right over their head. There is no in between.

Venti

Venti has a slight... obsession for them. Not in a creepy way, but more in a clingy sense. He practically hangs from them whenever he's messing around, and he unashamedly writes them songs. Venti is also a big fan of hugs! When he's drunk, though, that's when things take a darker, more seductive turn...

Xiangling

Xiangling’s poor little heart goes doki doki whenever she gets to cook for the traveler, have them cook with her, or eat a meal that they prepared. The way to her heart is definitely through her stomach! It’s a fairly small crush since cooking is her true love in life, but if the traveler pops up at Wanmin Restaurant and specifically asks for her again… Oh boy.

Xiao

Secretly has feelings for the traveler, but he refuses to admit it. Xiao thinks feelings like these are a waste of time and only bring pain; since he's been through much and the ultimate emo, he's even more emotionally constipated than the normal person. Although he doesn't outright say it, he'll often show his affection through actions.

Xingqiu

Two words: library dates. Whether if it's meant to be romantic or not, Xingqiu has an affinity for those who show genuine intelligence and is willing to discuss stories with him. Xingqiu could literally sit there all day and listen to the traveler tell him about the different worlds he's been to. It's quite refreshing!

Xinyan

Like Venti, Xinyan will write songs for the traveler, but she's more timid about showing them since rock music has yet a long way to go in Liyue, much less in Teyvat. She'll casually invite them for a jam session and ask for their opinion on how her songs sound. All in all, she thinks the traveler is pretty rad 👀

Yanfei

Yanfei is very skilled and knowledgeable in a wide range of topics, but when it comes to the art of seduction… not so much. She isn’t entirely sure if she has affections towards the traveler or not, but she enjoys being in their company nonetheless. However… she may or may not have tried to teach them Liyue law while over tea 😅

Yoimiya

Thinks the traveler is a lot of fun! She was already interested by the mere fact that they were an outsider, but once they showed their worth and came to her aid, it really sealed the deal. Viewing fireworks with them was an incredibly crucial moment, and she’ll keep that memory stored in her heart for all time.

Zhongli

Zhongli is very protective of them and wants to spoil them, but at the same time, he's also very, very broke. It's not sugar daddy status, obviously, but he enjoys treating them out to a dinner or a night on the town. The traveler thinks he's doing it just to be nice, but Paimon calls bullshit.

The Genshin Boys: Their type

what i think genshin boys type would be... y'all this is rushed asf and was written in like 10 mins on a bus so don’t think this chicken-scratch even matches  my actual writing, I was the English valedictorian after all.

Xiao (my beloved emo yaksha)

I personally think he doesn’t give a shit how you look, the man is 2000+ years old he’s above that, I think its more personality for him. someone quiet, calm and preferably not clingy is all he wants, someone he can bask in the presence of without having them talking and bothering him 24/7 so he is still able to attend to his duties as a yaksha (same here bestie)

Albedo (my beloved mad scientist)

He also isn’t one to care about looks, he wants someone smart, calm, quiet and confident. I think smarts is probably the biggest factor he wants someone to ramble about alchemy and have them understand and get into deep conversation with and maybe even double as his lab partner. I don’t see him being able to deal with an airhead considering he doesn’t have the greatest attention span.

Scaramouche (Will he do the fandango?)

He isn’t picky about looks but you HAVE to be shorter than him, he loves being taller than you it makes him feel powerful. as for personality I think he would like someone that is either a really smart sadist like him or a masochistic airhead that he can use to his liking. 

Xingqiu (my beloved book twink)

Looks don’t matter but he’d prefer if you were shorter so he could tease the living shit out of you for it (i know from experience), as for personality and other shit you better be smart otherwise he probably won’t even pay you any attention, as for books it would be easy to win him over if you were also a bookworm but if not it doesn’t matter I guess you just have to be good at pulling pranks.

Chongyun (the Hotter Jack Frost)

TBH I think he would be grateful for anyone to be looking at him romantically...or sexually. I’m sorry but this mans ego is so low from Xingqiu’s pranks that it doesn’t matter if your looks are akin to a deformed hillichurl and your an absolute airhead he would love you no matter what. (i bet your really pretty/handsome tho)

Kaeya (Sexy Snowman)

OK so i originally wrote this differently but someone was kind enough to point out a few things in his voice lines and story that contradict what my dumb ass wrote and i also sorta hated the old nickname i gave him so heres the edited version:

Kaeya does care about looks and prefers attractive people that he can show off  for looks but he also admires smart and outgoing people.i feel like he wouldn't care as much about looks if you were very well educated and spoken person.

old version:

This man is super picky i’m sorry bestie, he wants one of those (very obviously photo shopped) Instagram models, but at the same time he want someone flirtatious, funny and extroverted. hes got really high standards...sorry Kaeya but i don’t think your going to get  much from a %50 plastic %50 Photoshop guy/gal with the personality and intellect of a brick wall. (this ain’t Kaeya slander i love him but you can’t tell me this isn’t accurate)

Diluc (Flame daddy)

Poor bby, he just wants someone that loves him for who he really is and isn’t a knight of Favonious other than that he can’t ask for much more.

Child(e)

Hey girlie hold still ;) honestly I cant decide weather he’s similar to Kaeya with the whole Instagram model thing or he just has this sorta love at first sight thing going on other than that i have no idea. oh also i guess it pays to be a horny mf in this situation.

Bennett (pure bby)

he is grateful for anyone that even wants to hang around with him due to everyone avoiding him because of his bad luck, he would love you no matter what well as long as your not evil.

Razor (rawr XD)

he was raised by wolves so he’s not really picky as long as his Lupical like you, although he would probably refer to you as his mate...

Venti (tone-deaf bard)

he want a sugar mummy/daddy/glucose guardian to buy him wine jk, jokes aside i think he’d probably like someone carefree, friendly and with the same views on freedom as he does.

Zhongli (Geo Daddy)

as much as i hate this earth-bending grandpa i shall put up with him to appease the simps, he probably wants someone with a lot of money so he can stop freeloading off Childe or a person with a similar intellect to himself so then you both can freeload of Childe :)

ok bestie that concludes this please send requests in my ask box because im bored asf and need prompts.
