#genshin ying'er

[alchemyofhearts]

So I fully quit Genshin a few months ago now (boycott aside, but also, that exists and is cool beans), but my friend sent me this letter.

First off, Timaeus has rizz still? Based? With Ying'er? Gigachad behaviour, my guy.

Secondly, "create an immaculate flower for his beloved". Tell me, why does that sound familiar?

Oh.

speedrunning my teapot

okay so as my roster's nova, they know damn well on how i go from "gone for literal years" to "bulldozing through every quest available within a day" — the latter being specifically when i spedrun through the liyue quest (that i've been neglecting for years now whoops) for the taste testing teapot event. yep, i have shit priorities and it shows lmao

little note that i believe the aurora bot allows the sunshines what the nova's current status is at the bare minimum unless asked for further information

if your system aurora is a menace, it would report what your current motivation is if its nova don't talk while playing — for extra ammo, it might even go full throttle by telling the sunshines even the most minute detail it can tell them i.e. if you're too busy staring at zhongli's ass and the like

moving on, so after twelve (12) hours of grinding i finally have my teapot at trust rank 4 and im just gonna bullet point it with a bit of chatbox-esque dialogue thingie:

everyone in my main party (lumine, barbara, xiangling and shinobu) are main victims of the entire ride. the secondary team – dubbed as stamina squad – suffered the second half of the day the moment i got the teapot (razor, rosaria, amber and jean)

《— •▪︎{★}▪︎• —》

first half: the archon quest

AURORA [bot]: 【 NOVA [insert username] IS DISTRACTED. PAIMON AND TRAVELER, PLEASE STANDBY AND PAY ATTENTION. 】 Team: *groan* Paimon: not again!

i will admit it now: i was not paying attention the whole time

except for the perfume part. i was relentlessly choosing the fruitiest options possible and having paimon (and likely the other party members) suffer my bs

timeus you lucky bastard– (if you played the recent windblume event then you know why i'm cursing this man rn)

xiangling be going "really? right in front of my stove/dad" the entire time i was with ying'er lol

sorry gurl but ying'er's everything is too hilarious to pass up

TARTAGLIA: nothing personal~ Shinobu, having just released her skill: wait, FUCK—! 【 SHINOBU (LV.20) HAS BEEN SLAIN 】 Shinobu, in the chat: every. damned. TIME. Lisa and Yanfei: *comforting her because they've been through the same thing*

shinobu dies a fuckton and @yeelimso had once stated that the resident inazuman def would not like me for the bs i put her through

take note that she's stuck at the level 20 the entire time that i've been using her

yeah she def hates me lol

no boss battle ends without shinobu at least dying once

barbara desperately keeping the team alive while she herself is on life support

the team suffering my shit coordination with my keys (setting off their bursts at wrong time or the wrong person gets their burst activated) as i lowkey panic whenever i see the ballista's hp going lower than 20%

barely got through that boss battle ngl

fucking fatui

still felt bad for childe tho but eh stinky red poo poo man + such is politics lol rip bozo

《— •▪︎{★}▪︎• —》

interlude: getting the teapot

aka round two of my team suffering my gay ass feat. yanfei

yanfei is so good in this quest like man her big brain holy shit 😳

sunshine yanfei dying inside as her nova gay panics over her earthshine self

there are literally three moods in this quest: (1) yanfei admiration, (2) head empty hours with paimon, and (3) appreciating madame ping's eyebags for some reason

god, im so sorry yanfei 🙇💦

《— •▪︎{★}▪︎• —》

second half: speedrunning the teapot

if you've seen some of my genshin reblogs the past few days then you know that this was a long time coming

deadass prioritized aloy > everybody else

which def would've made her uncomfy if she is self-aware whoops

oh well, at least she has her little outdoor retreat all the way over the corner of my teapot

left my mansion empty until trust rank 2, which caused me to go on a shopping spree

i felt bad when kaeya's lines hit me with "well decorated" and "homey" but there's only a dining set there

now my lobby is filled with bookshelves for days

along with other knicknacks

meanwhile... razor and jean: *material collecting noises in the distance intensifies*

noelle and rosaria are now with him too! because if i do get isekai'd in the "sagau" these people are my to-go to and i need their friendship rank high stat

i fed them so much food you have no idea—

paimon has a room of her own and that is the only other room that is furnished (for now)

she deserves that much after all the bullying i inflicted on her lmao

hmmm... seeing that i never use my sticky honey roast batches so i might as well feed paimon those later

the event is going to end soon so yee imma try to wrap this up to further speedrun

that's it for now. i haven't slept since yesterday and it's, haha, past noon here... yeah, imma continue the gaming later...

i hope you enjoyed!

again, if you want to use my version of sagau, please tag me. other than that, feel free to use it as your base!

Genshin Impact Event Portrait from Version 3.5 “Windblume’s Breath” Preview Page

[daysincomplete]

I don't even go here much anymore but I need somewhere to throw my thoughts re: Emilie (Genshin Impact)

Yes, a lot of people have been upset or disappointed that she looks less interesting mostly in comparison to the many leaked concept arts of her, and I've definitely seen a couple colour/other edits on her which looked amazing. For me, the hair colour throws me off a bit and I have some Choice Words about her top but the green of her dress is such a deeply satisfying shade of green that reminds me of velvet, and I enjoy how her outfit, alongside Neuvilette's description and other people's voicelines, paint what feels to be a deliberately curated picture of her.

While we can't know for sure what decisions were involved that resulted in them settling on the current official design, the perception on her is so unnecessarily dampened because of that potential "what could have been" that we weren't meant to see in the first place. If anything, looking at the variety of concept arts leaked, it's at least reassuring that the artists have that skill and freedom to depict a character in so many creative ways.

honestly I'm more interested in seeing how Emilie is as a character - most of other character's voicelines about her are in regards to her business than of her (with the exception of Chevreuse) and she's a "forensic cleaner"? ESPECIALLY since she's probably going to be involved with the Burning Artifact set???There are a lot more layers here I really wish to see more people explore here instead of, well, everything else going on. I'm sitting here imagining situations involving Emilie, Chiori and Chevreuse potentially on a case, or interactions between her and Lisa/Sucrose/Albedo as a chemist (and god forbid what happens when she's put together near the Pyro Folk)

I don't know if I'll pull for her (if I do, it'll be predominantly based on her kit) but I like seeing how artists depict a character once their design is drip marketed on Twitter and it's a bit annoying seeing that the media tab there is just predominantly people talking about the concept art instead

[cluescorner]

MY 3.5 PREDICTIONS

About Caribert:

- Kaeya and Dain DO interact, but only for like 2 minutes. This interaction will reveal that they’ve actually never met each other before. 

- Dainsleif will reveal that he was supposed to be a Schwanenritter, but deserted for whatever reason. 

- More of Celestia’s crimes against humanity will be revealed. 

- There WILL BE a new Khaenri’an NPC, but they will either day before the quest ends or will have been corrupted with the Abyss. 

- When the hilichurl takes its mask off, its face will look alarmingly human. Like, almost human but there’s a specific uncanny valley effect.

- The Cryo Abyss Herald is actually completely irrelevant to the quest. Like, it’s just an enemy who shows up and then you fight it. 

- Our sibling will show up, but only in a flashback or something to do with the mirror we pick up. 

- It will be revealed that a Descender is leading the Abyss Order. 

- it is NOT revealed how exactly our sibling’s fate is being obscured from Irminsul nor why they aren’t considered a descender. 

About Windblume: 

- Collei and Amber’s reunion will make me cry. 

- Kaeya is not involved in any of it due to being in Caribert. 

- Amber and Collei are the ‘main characters’ of this quest 

- Cyno and Lisa interact, Tighnari and Albedo interact 

- Diluc shows up for like 3 seconds to have a brief look of understanding with Collei and Cyno, then immediately leaves. 

- We will play matchmaker between Timaeus and Ying’er. 

- The ‘prophecy’ will be revealed to just be a trick of Venti’s to encourage people to have fun on Windblume. 

- Either Varka or Alice will make a physical appearance, but not both. If it’s Varka, he will have a disappointingly twink-ish appearance and the community backlash will be enough that they will FINALLY FUCKING FINALLY make better and more diverse base models for characters. If it’s Alice, her boobs will be the size of watermelons and she’ll look like a Klee + Lisa hybrid. She’ll make a vague reference to Rukkhadevata, then laugh it off as if it was a joke because only WE REMEMBER RUKKHADEVATA EXISTS. 

About my pulls:

- I will get Dehya within Day 1. 

- I will get Cyno C2, but not C3. 

- I will lose a 50/50 and get a Constellation rather than a new character (weeps in no Keqing or Diluc or Tighnari). 

- My ‘Kaeya is a segment of Pierro’ bullshit will be definitely proven false, so I can properly classify it as an AU. 

- I will finally go full Pepe Sylvia Mode about how Dehya’s kit was designed

Anything and everything (ying'er x reader)

ao3 link

A co-worker asks you out for dinner, and you're aiming for a good first impression with your best friend's expertise in perfumery. Given this generous window of opportunity, Ying'er decides with finality that it's now or never.

Content warnings: NSFW, DEAD DOVE, drugging/mind control, dubcon

"What's in that?"

The smell wafting from a vial is strangely addicting. The color is odd, spiraling with combinations of pinks and other warm tones that seem to meld endlessly into one another like crashing waves, nearly drawing you into a deep trance. It's sweet. With a hint of cinnamon and maybe something else.

Ying smiles at you. "Trade secret." She answers cryptically.

"It smells good." You reply, and take another whiff of the intoxicating scent despite the unusual appearance. "It smells really good."

"I actually handcrafted this one," She confesses, retrieving the vial after you've finished sampling. "with you in mind."

You huff out a laugh. "If you told me what it was, maybe I could appreciate it even more."

"Nice try," She teases with a smug grin. "What's the occasion?"

You let the question linger in the air for a beat longer. Hoping she bites, you then offer, "Why don't we exchange secrets?"

"I'm asking because I need to know who you're looking to impress, honey."

You try not to blush at the nickname, but you have a creeping suspicion that the heat has already reached your cheeks. There is a faint flicker of mirth and shining victory present in her eyes. "Fine. A coworker asked me out for dinner." You relent after some thought, too drained from work to argue back. "I think it's a date."

Ying's expression turns from curious to thoughtful, then to something you can't quite discern.

"I just want a good first impression." You supply nervously.

"Of course. You don't need to worry. You're lucky I like you. I have a generous selection at the back that will work, guaranteed." She says with expertise in marketing her craft, complemented with a flirty wink. "All made by yours truly."

Her confidence wasn't conjured from nothing.

She did have quite a variety of limited samples, all beautifully handcrafted and decorated with a cute bow. Some were sweet, a little fruity. Some were fragrant, reminiscent of sweet flowers or even mints. All shared one unusual feature in common: that same addictive rush running down your delicate nerves every time you inhale a whiff of the perfume.

Her perfume.

Your nose trails after her scent like a dog, acutely aware upon realization that she's wearing the exact same fragrance as the one you smelled from the first vial.

"You smell good." You blurt out. Regret clots your throat, embarrassment thick and suffocating, but it's too late to take back those words.

Ying stops pacing between aisles and meets your gaze under her pretty eyelashes. "You noticed," She looked genuinely shocked, to your surprise, stepping closer, swirling the contents inside that same vial. "You seem to really like this one."

Now it's your turn for your heart to thrum in anticipation. You've started taking deeper breaths through your lips to compensate for how thick the air seems to have gotten, clouding your senses with spice, and sweetness, and… and-

Ying's face is mere inches from you. Since adolescence, she's grown to be a little taller, even if you've always been taller years ago. It feels almost unnatural to have to crane your neck this much just to meet her intense gaze. And yet so natural.

Her hands reach to your exposed jugular.

"Y-Ying'er-'' You gasp. The wall behind you felt cool to the touch but not quite enough to pull you out of your trance. There's no space left for you to move. You're horrified to find that being caged by her against the wall feels oddly familiar. Comforting, even. Like it's something you've always wanted. Like it's something you've always needed.

"Would you like some help to try it on?" She offers.

You'll push back, tell her you'll fare well without it, and if she insists, you could apply the perfume yourself.

But with the way she watches your expressions change intently, hands never moving from your throat, and unwilling to back off, you almost feel obligated to say-

"Yes… please…" You murmur automatically.

"As you wish, baobei."

Your throat goes dry at the pet name and at the same time, it feels as though it sent a jolt of electricity between your legs. It must've been a mistake if you didn't know any better, but Ying's confidence left no room for error. "K-knock it off, Ying!" You recoil, but one hand quickly slips around your hips to still you.

She only flashes you a teasing smile. "Relax, dear. I'm just preparing you for when you land yourself a wonderful lover." She uncaps the vial and gently rubs the substance over your pulse.

Despite the neck being one of the most sensitive, and consequently, most ticklish spots, you can't help but melt into her soft fingers, running slow circles over your skin. "There we go," She leans in to whisper in your ear, sending shivers to the base of your spine. "Easy does it."

"Are all your perfumes like this?" You wonder out loud. A thick layer of cotton clogs your ears, everything sounding distant and fuzzy.

"Like what, dear?"

"It makes me feel…" You sigh, trying to find the right words despite how foggy your mind is and heavy your limbs feel. The neverending ache persists somewhere, though it doesn’t hurt. In fact, it's tempting to unwittingly chase it. "It makes me feel… ah, good…"

"Since you're so honest with me, maybe I'll let you in on a little secret, too." She hums, lips now just ghosting over your jaw. Your eyelids shut and you tilt your head for better access. "I noticed you’ve been so stressed from work and life lately. So I got you a little surprise."

"You did?"

"Mm. That boy of yours caused me quite the panic, you know. I wanted to give you my present a little later." She sighs, petting your hair like she would with an animal. "If it weren't for him, I would've first taken you to a more romantic setting."

She pauses, but her gentle massage doesn't stop, as if to help you maintain your trance. "Ah, I meant relaxing. Maybe your room, or mine. We could use some privacy and a bed."

"A bed sounds nice…"

"Quite so. But you're fine if we do it here, aren't you?"

Do what here? "Yes."

"That's my good girl." The praise comes off as a sultry flirt, sending coils of liquid heat to pool low in your stomach, and your legs threaten to give out under you.

"Now, I added some… relaxants in this perfume. It was terribly expensive, but all worth it in the end, only because you like it so much." She continues, hands fiddling with the buttons of your coat and pants, now that you've stopped resisting, slumped against the wall. "The seller said it had, well, some mind altering substances. Something about the alchemical properties rewiring your brain to be a little more easily influenced by external factors. Nothing we should be messing with. But you know I would never put you in danger."

Alchemical this, external factors that. Her words began to grow increasingly jumbled and confusing, so you merely focused on what you could. "I know you wouldn't, Ying." You repeat obediently.

"You look flustered." She notes, lips hovering just over yours. "How are you faring?"

"Hot… And… And I'm tired…" You slur, tears gathering in your vision as you fight with everything to stay conscious if only to continue basking in Ying's wonderfully soothing voice. "It's too hot…"

"Let me help you with that." She suggests (it’s not a suggestion, you know as well as she does… sort of), pulling apart your blouse and exposing cleavage. "So pretty. Beautiful, all for me to take…" A wave of instant relief crashes over when she pushes your bra up. She moves down to press gentle kisses over your bare breasts. "You love it when I do this, don't you?"

"I do," You sigh, head beginning to lull.

"You feel so relaxed when mommy touches you like this, right?"

"R-right…" Eyelids starting to close on their own. A little shut-eye wouldn't hurt, would it?

"No one makes you feel as good as mommy does.”

“Only mommy.” Absentminded. Pliant. Obedient, just as she'd like you. Perfect for her.

“Good, good. Good girl.” You're vaguely aware that she knows how weak her praise makes you, and yet, you inevitably sink deeper into her firm grasp on your faltering subconscious.

Then without warning, she turns you over to sit on the surface of a low counter, legs spread like a cheap whore, but of course, you weren’t nearly conscious enough to be embarrassed about that. So she has nothing to worry about. Her pretty little dove wouldn’t flutter away when she pushes two fingers easily inside of your dripping cunt.

Your body’s reaction is immediate, convulsing and squirming at the sudden intrusion, yet your consciousness seems to be lagging behind. You’re uncomfortable, but why?

"God, I've been waiting for this forever…" She sighs, thrusting in at snail pace. "You make such cute noises, makes me wanna eat you right up.." You're suddenly aware of the pleasure fraying your nerves, desperately shifting your hips for more and more.

With her free hand, she grabs your shoulder, letting you hunch over, face into her neck to relax once more in her tender caress. "Shh… Let mommy take care of you, darling." She chides you, like a baby- not that you'd mind, anyway. "There’s no need to rush."

A thick mist clouds any shred of coherent thought like a protective barrier, and you're left to stumble alone, knocked around like a ragdoll. The only thing that should be left on your mind by now would be the strong scent of her- her. Mommy.

And the more you indulge in the deep ocean of mommy's gentle, guiding words, the deeper you sink. The deeper you sink into her abyss, the warmer you feel and the harder it is to make out light and dark, sound and silence. Your breath comes fast and ragged and you clench up around the deft fingers that fill you so nicely.

Just as you feel your core boiling over, she slows to a halt, and pulls out, leaving you empty and desolate. The world comes crashing down, surroundings spinning and blurring beyond recognition. Your hands leave the warmth of mommy's body and catches the cold hard countertop. Suddenly, nothing about this is pleasant. You whine, hoping for mommy to make it all better.

Please, you probably beg (though you aren't sure, it could have very well been incoherent slurring given your pathetic state), please make it better.

It's difficult to catch the soft pair of lips that caress your damp skin while you're still stumbling about to collect yourself (to no avail).

"I want this to last, darling." She whispers apologetically. "It wouldn't be fun if I didn't get to train you into mommy's precious little whore, now, would it?"

That's right. There's nothing more gratifying than the affection and adoration that mommy provides you. You're treasured and loved and there's nothing to worry about because she will be here, and all will be good.

Just like that, you easily sink back into her hold, so eager to dip yourself back into the tidal waves of pleasure lulling you into such a state.

Everything feels just right. You want to be mommy's whore, her sweetheart, her darling. Anything and everything.

Anything and everything for mommy.

ying'er | confessions

requested by @ash-11037 | i'll do a masterlist once i hit 10 posts

perhaps her perfumes are simply just love spells in disguise. maybe that's why timaeus fell for her so easily, and why you were entranced at first sight.

ft. completely oblivious reader

ying'er is amazing. from her smile to her beauty to her personality. maybe she's already caught onto you; you can't help but visit her every day, pretending to simply just being insanely interested in perfumes.

you decide you don't mind. is she simply just being friendly with you, or is she flirting back? maybe flirting is as close as you'll ever get to being with her, because it's not like you'll be able to ask her out. what if she doesn't swing that way?

there was a man from mondstadt, once. you're pretty sure he fell in love at first sight, and to be honest, you get it. you've visited her again, today.

ying'er grins at you when you approach, and you can't help but smile, albeit embarrassedly.

"hello, again."

"good morning, gorgeous."

"any new perfumes?"

"you sure go through them speedily."

"i just like having a collection, if i'm being honest," you lie, and then smile at the irony of saying something like that. her own smile remains on her face, and you wonder if she's seen through it your poorly constructed lie.

“if you’re being honest…” she muses. “i guess i thought i was being clear enough, but maybe there’s still some doubts? that’s okay. i don’t mind making the first move.”

huh?

wait. is what you think is happening actually happening? you’re not making it up? you’re not daydreaming?

ying’er takes your hand and pulls you closer. “you’re not very good at lying, i’m sorry to say.” ah. so she did see through you. you bite your lip.

“but you’re so cute that i don’t really mind.”

aha. you can only really focus on her hand, intertwined with yours. her eyes, sparkling.

“by the way, you’re blushing. you really are super cute. so- how about we go on a date? i’ll take you out to lunch.” oh. oh, it’s really happening. so all the comments really were flirting?! how could you not have noticed?!

“i’m sorry for not noticing sooner,” you say. you can’t wipe the smile off your face.

“it’s alright! as i said, it’s adorable. i really like you.”

later on, she does take you out to lunch. you can’t help but feel your crush deepen. a lot more dates happen after that, and eventually you become each other’s significant others.

you pay her back for her confession, eventually. it involves a ring and a deeper commitment.

and without hesitation, she says yes.
