what was I made for?

watching the barbie movie w genshin characters!

kazuha, kaveh, xiao, wanderer x reader (separately)

warnings: a tinge of angst, hurt/comfort, crying, modern au, tooth-rotting fluff !!

You've been anticipating the release of the latest Barbie film for days. Your excitement was as great as ever since you had already planned your pink-themed outfit days before the film's release.

If you were going to see the Barbie movie while feeling like a Barbie, you'd need your Ken, right? So you just had to invite your significant other to see the new movie with you!

Kazuha

Your well-thought-out pink-themed outfit was now slightly damp from the countless tears streaming down your tear-stained cheeks as the movie slowly came to an end. The saddening music playing in the background as you suppressed your cries.

Kazuha, on the other hand, was wiping your tears away. Warm hands cupped your wet cheeks as his thumbs gently wiped away your salty tears. His brows were knitted together in a frown as he watched you cry in his hands.

"Hey, it's okay. Everything is alright. That's what I'm made for, right? To be here for you always. So it's okay to cry. It's okay to let out all your bottled-up emotions. And when you do, I'll be by your side, okay, my love?" he whispered into your ear as he pulled you into a passionate embrace.

Your tears came to a still as you felt Kazuha pull away, your arms that were once wrapped around his shoulders loosening. You look at him with puffy and red eyes, but Kazuha couldn't care less. He leaned in again before pressing a soft, gentle kiss on the corner of your lips, making butterflies swarm your stomach almost immediately.

The scene made the other watchers admire the couple, feeling proud, while some felt envious and asked each other where they could find someone like your loving boyfriend.

As he pulled away, you couldn't help but feel lucky to have a boyfriend like Kazuha.

Kaveh

You didn't know how you found yourself in this position—Kaveh sitting on your lap, face buried into the crook of your neck as he sobbed loudly, ignoring the fact you were in a completely public space.

"Kaveh..? What's wrong, baby-" Before you could finish your sentence, your sobbing lover suddenly pulled away from you before looking at you with glazed orbs. "If you EVER cry without telling me, I will literally cry! I swear with MY LIFE that I will never make you feel unloved! I'M ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU, OKAY Y/N?!" Kaveh rapidly said, a couple hiccups interrupting his words as tears continued flowing down his rosy cheeks.

A soft sigh left your lips before you cupped his tear-stained cheeks. Sure, some people would find your boyfriend embarrassing for yelling in the middle of the theater, but you couldn't care less about any of that right now; all that mattered was your lover, Kaveh.

You quickly wiped away his tears before pressing a quick peck on his slightly damp cheeks. "Okay, but don't scare me like that again. You're going to make me cry." You whispered soft, loving words into his ears as you pulled him into a hug, opting to rest your chin on the pads of your boyfriend's shoulder. All of your words were quickly interrupted again as he cried in your arms, his tears soaking your pink outfit.

Some people expected that you would be the one who should be crying in your boyfriend's arms, yet for you, you found it endearing and adorable as Kaveh cried in your arms like a big baby.

Xiao

Your brows were knitted together as you watched the end credits roll with a frown. Sure, the movie made you feel somewhat sad, as you related deeply to the story, but it wasn't so far that it made you cry.

You swiftly picked up your trash before standing up from your seat. Head turning to look at your boyfriend, Xiao, if he was ready to leave. His expression was... somewhat sad, yet confused. Maybe he related to the movie too.

"Xiao, let's go," you whispered before putting out your free hand, waiting for him to intertwine his with yours. When he did, you felt a bit more at ease. You didn't know why, but you just did.

As you were about to exit the theater of the mall, you could feel yourself slightly stumble back as your boyfriend was now a bit far from you, hands still holding onto each other.

"Xiao..?" Your silky hair fluttered as you whipped your head to face your boyfriend, only to see him staring holes into the floor, the tips of his ears slightly turning a tint of pink.

"I'll always be there for you if you need me... if you didn't know." he quietly said as his brows furrowed, his embarrassed eyes slowly glancing at you for a response. You could feel your heartbeat accelerate ever so slightly, the apples of your cheeks a light shade of red as your hand loosened its grip on Xiao's hand, making him puzzled at the loss of contact.

"Y/N..?" Before he could even process what was happening, he was quickly pulled into a warm hug, immediately melting in your arms as he wrapped his around your waist. "Thank you, love. I'll also be here for you always," you whispered into his now red ear. You slightly pull away from the hug before pressing a faint kiss on the tip of his nose, making his face flush red.

Before you broke the gears in his brain even more, you pulled away from the embrace before intertwining your hands together. "Let's go!" you said before turning away from him and dragging him to who knows where.

But he doesn't fail to catch the burning shade of red spread all over your ears, and he unconsciously smiles at this.

Wanderer

Your boyfriend didn't know what to do as you sobbed uncontrollably to yourself, eyes fixed on the TV screen as the ending credits rolled in.

What's he supposed to do? Does he need to tell you to stop crying? Yeah, no, he was sure that would just make your sobs even louder. Should he wipe away your tears and curse the people who made the movie? He sat there frozen and puzzled, his mind running millions of miles for ways to comfort you.

Out of nowhere, his body moved on its own before lifting you up from the sofa as he placed you on his lap, a protective arm wrapped around your waist while his other hand pressed your head onto his shoulder, letting you sob all you wanted. Though he doesn't let out a single word, as silence engulfed the both of you, only the sounds of your cries and hiccups remained, but either way, the both of you found the silence comforting.

Once he was sure your cries had come to a stop, he slightly pulled away, enough to see the aftermath of your tears plastered onto your face. His usual expression was nowhere to be seen and was replaced with a soft one.

He gently wipes away the remaining tears from the corners of your eyes. His hand suddenly brushed the stray strands of your smooth hair that framed your face perfectly away before pressing a soft, yet somehow shy, kiss onto your forehead.

Your eyes don't miss the way his cheeks burn up ever so slightly and his ears turn bright red. Before you could say anything, he pulled away from your forehead and pushed you back onto his shoulder. You smile warmly at this.

Sure, your beloved lover isn't too good at comforting others through words of affirmation, but he's pretty capable of showing it through actions instead.

A/N: HELLOOO i just watched barbie a few days ago and i legit cannot stop thinking about it. anw have some fluff before i start writing the pt. 2 of albedo angst! 😘

(a/n) gift for @lume-nosity ♡ feel free to comment or reblog characters you want next!! (the xiao part took so much out of me i cant stop fucking squeeallinggg please hoyo give us soft xiao interactions next lantern rite pleaseee)

˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚

xiao ♡

he never was an affectionate person, but he tried to change that for you.

it was common knowledge that the adeptus was cold and typically uninviting to mortals, but to you, he was a completely different person.

he was never harsh to you, never yelled at you, not even when he was raging mad, because he didn't want to scare you. he never told you anything differing from kind words or praise, because he knew that doing so would make you happy.

and it did.

recently, xiao had agreed, albeit reluctantly, to come with you to liyue harbor to have a small meet up with you. it wasn't often that you got breaks from your job, but when you did, you would spend them at wangshu inn, excitedly conversing with the dark-haired man as the moon rose and shone overhead. This time, you had invited him to come to you instead, and that you would show him around modern liyue.

he never liked mortals, but you were different.

"xiao! there you are!" you gave the male a wave from where you stood, beaming. above, the sky was just beginning to get dark, the horizons tinted with hues of violet and crimson.

you could see him clearly from where you stood, the adeptus walking at his usual brisk pace. as he reached you, he paused and hesitated. "what do mortals call these things again?"

"dates?" you giggled, laughing at xiao's innocent and silly nature.

"that's it." the dark-haired male nodded, before glancing at you and then downward with his warm amber eyes. "then... can we hold hands?" he stares down at the ground, face and ears tinged red from embarrassment. xiao extends a hand toward you slowly, waiting for a response.

and you gladly take it, intertwining your fingers with his gloved ones and smiling. "of course."

the night is cold, but with the two of you interlocking hands, suddenly, everything seems all the bit more warm.

childe ♡

"comrade" had always been his title for you.

and the two of you had always been close. you had been childe's friend, advisor, and companion for longer than you could remember. the two of you had braved the harsh winters shneznaya, and when the male had received orders to head to liyue for some unsettled matters, you were more than willing to pack everything and leave with him.

after all, without childe, nothing could be the same.

you watched silently at the interaction between the northland bank receptionist and the familiar ginger, before making a quick motion to childe to mention that you were heading out. it was just too stuffy inside, and you needed some air. it had been a busy past few weeks, and the times where you did have rare solace, you decided you maximize the most of.

pushing open the heavy door, the cold night breeze greeted you. it was chilly, but it did help clear your head. the moon is full tonight, you note to yourself, staring up from where you're leaning on the side railings and smiling.

then there's the sound of footsteps behind you as low and behold, tartaglia himself comes out to check up on you.

"hey, comrade. what are you doing all alone out here?" his voice is nonchalant, but you could decipher the worried undertone in his words.

"i needed to clear my head." you glance back at him, before gesturing to the empty space beside you with a grin. "the view is great here, childe. come take a look."

and he does, stepping over to your side gently with the ghost of a smile still lingering on his face. he follows your gaze quietly, up at the round, shining moon and glittering stars that light up the night sky. then he turns to look at you, and his gaze softens.

then warmth shoots through you as he grasps your hand, fingers brushing yours before he clasps them tightly.

"it's okay if i do this, right, love?"

kazuha ♡

it was in his notebook that you saw his true feelings, displayed for you to see, and you knew how much it meant for him.

you hadn't meant to stumble across journal - really. it was by complete chance that kazuha had decided to go for a walk and you hadn't realized, and so had gone into his room to speak to him only to find him gone.

thinking that he might be holed up somewhere in the space, busy writing something, you searched high and low and only found a leather bound journal with a red maple leaf on the cover that had clearly been stitched on. opening it, you were astonished to find pages on pages of endless haikus, poems, all sorts of rhymes and tales, all written in kazuha's graceful, flowy handwriting.

a smile upon the breeze, cruelties done out of fun. that out of so many people of these my lover is none.

the rising sun brings forth new morn still, the memory fades yet, for even though your face was forlorn, your smile i shall never forget.

for as long as we play this game, i wish our paths will never part. would you say you felt the same? if i told you what lied in my heart?

the poems and easing verses run ceaselessly from page to page, and you can only feel your eyes widen and face burn as you keep reading, albeit a bit guilty for going through his personal things like this. but as you turn the page to read the last poem, you can hear footsteps resounding from somewhere down the hall.

someone's coming.

immediately, you hastily scramble to place the journal back where it was and then dive on top of kazuha's bed, hoping that no one would spot you underneath the covers. the steps stop at the door, and you can hear the hinges squeal quietly as the door gets pushed open.

"hello?" kazuha's voice is confused and quiet, and you already know that he's suspiciously scanning the room. heart racing, you hear him walk closer to the bed, pausing before-

"what-" the male threw back the covers, and you can glimpse his startled expression from where you're pressed flat against his mattress. "what are you doing here...?"

"uhm... surprise?" you sit up awkwardly, scooting off the bed and getting onto your feat nervously. "a-anyway- don't think about this too hard- let's just..." you clasped kazuha's hand in yours, smiling frantically. fingers locked together, you tugged kazuha to and out the door. "let's just forget about it, okay?"

poor kazuha's so embarrassed, he can't even say a thing except mutter a quiet:

"o-okay."

ganyu ♡

working overtime was something ganyu was accustomed to. however, she was still unfamiliar with many concepts, namely you, and your seemingly endless affection.

you were a peculiar person, in ganyu's eyes. you always, no matter how late she got off work, waited for the adeptibeast patiently, usually handing her a gift or drink of some sort before walking her back to her house.

the evenings the two of you spend together at what ganyu considers the best moments of her days.

The warm evening glow reflecting off of your face, the lanterns lining the streets, the hustling murmur of excited in the background only convinced ganyu that she cared for you more than she would ever let on.

"ah..." ganyu turns to you, and you blink at her questioningly in return. "speaking of which, was there anything you wanted?"

"huh...?"

"well, you're always waiting for me after work... and bringing me all sorts of things too... so i wanted to pay you back for all of the effort." ganyu glances away, deciding to look anywhere but you, glancing at the food stalls, buildings, and the stone path the two of you are walking on. however, her efforts were fruitless, as you were able to see a clear view of her flushed face.

"aw, that's so sweet of you!" grinning, you let out a little giggle at her mannerisms. "but i didn't give you those hoping for something in return. its because i care about you!"

i care about you.

those words rang in the blue-haired girls ears as her warm eyes widened. "then..."

she walks closer to you, tugging at your sleeve with red tinged cheeks. as you turn to look at her questioningly, she takes your hand in hers, intertwining her slender fingers with you.

"can i do this?"

shenhe ♡

she had never really understood humans, nor wanted to, until she met you.

no one ever called shenhe a human. it was only ever adepti this and adepti that. maybe it was her lack of present emotions, or maybe it was just her cold demeanor, but her words fell upon deaf ears whenever she tried to explain.

"eh? you seem pretty human to me, shenhe. it's pretty hard to get it wrong, honestly." you glanced up at the white-haired girl curiously. the two of you were seated at liuli pavilion, upon your request to share lunch together.

"hard... to mistake me?" shenhe smiled airily, an expression that was seen by few. "just as i thought. you're different than everyone else. in a good way."

"...th-thanks...?"

shenhe merely let an relatively amused expression cross her face. "let me ask you something. to you, what makes a human human?"

you thought about her question for a long pause before answering. "i'd like to say... emotions. humans are egotistic and greedy, i'll admit to that, as i'm guilty of it myself, but humans also are thoughtful. they're kind, caring, genuine and understanding. that's what makes communities so powerful too. it's because everyone as the mutual trust and belief in each other that they can do great things." you grinned at the girl. "you have emotions too, they just don't get shown as often as the emotions of others. but that doesn't mean you don't have them."

the white-haired woman stayed silent for the count of three, her multi-colored eyes sparkling as she stared at you with a level of affection you didn't know was possible.

a light blush began creeping across her face as well, although she didn't seem to notice her red cheeks and ears. instead, she just beamed at you.

"caring, you say? then, tell me, is this something a caring human would do?" with that, she reached down at took your hand with hers as a faint smile began to form on shenhe's face. her slender hands were cold to the touch, a pleasant feeling in the warm liyue heat as she intertwined her hands with yours.

"yes, it is."

"good."

KISS IT OFF ME.

Ice cream always tasted better when it was from his lips.

Kaedehara Kazuha x gn! reader.

genre/cw: pure fluff, modern au, childhood friends to lovers.

word count: 1.8k.

Your first memory of him tastes of cool strawberries.

You were six, and through teary eyes, you first spotted him outlined against the afternoon sun, his hand extended to you.

You had fallen from your brand new bike, your knee scraped and bleeding.

“Are you okay?” A soft voice asks.

You sob loudly, sitting on the pavement, your bicycle toppled over by your side.

“Hey, it’s okay.” He says, offering you a hand.

You take it.

And when your cries die down, you’re convinced the boy before you is magical.

The softest eyes you’ve ever seen look back at you, rimmed by long lashes the color of starlight through clear clouds. His hair is like silken moonlight, a single vibrant red tuft sticking out, much like the setting sun behind him.

“Here,” the boy says, handing you a pink ice cream cone. “This will help you feel better.” He smiles, gently, closing your small hands around the cool cone.

You stare at him, enchanted, wondering who this boy that looks like an angel is and why do you feel so comforted next to him.

“My name is Kazuha, what’s your name?” He asks.

Through a mouthful of strawberry flavored sweetness, you introduce yourself.

“Then, I’m happy to know my new friend’s name, [Y/n].” The boy smiles again.

He seems to do that a lot. It’s nice. And you like the sound of your name when it comes from him.

While you hold your newly acquired ice cream, licking quickly to avoid it melting away, Kazuha picks up your bike, walking home beside you.

Under the stars that begin to illuminate the twilight sky, your friendship with your knight in shining armor is forged.

—

You are fifteen and nights are young and the summer seems endless.

A sea of city lights and distant stars hovers over you, as you sit on the rooftop.

Matching cookie ice cream cups in your hands, you and Kazuha share a comfortable quiet.

Silence with him always had that nature.

Taking the last spoonful, you lie down, over the baby blue blanket sprawled under you two.

You steal a glance in his direction, admiring the way the night breeze ruffles his hair and kisses his skin in ways you dream of every dawn.

He turns around, catching your gaze on him, pretty pink dusting his ears and cheeks.

“Is there anything on your mind?” Kazuha asks, clearing his throat.

You chuckle, his silhouette against a starry backdrop reflected in your eyes.

“Maybe…” You smile, taking his hand, tugging on it so he lies down with you.

“Mind telling me?” Your friend prompts, turning around to face you, his hand still in yours.

You hum, blinking against the starlight overhead.

“I hope that, ten years from now, we still have each other.” You utter, to him and the night.

Kazuha squeezes your hand, once to let you know he’s heard you, twice, his unspoken affirmation.

“We will.” He answers, with the constellations as witnesses of this unwritten pact. “That, I can promise.”

As the warm summer breeze wraps around you, your gaze helplessly orbits around Kazuha again.

Then, your sweet ice cream stained lips brush his cheek, a cool smudge in your wake, eliciting soft giggles from his lips, which you wish you could kiss instead.

“Thank you, Kazuha.” You breathe, closing your eyes, silver lined horizons announcing the approach of dawn.

—

Eighteen and you feel like you could stand on top of the world.

High school has finally ended and just in a few hours you’ll be taking your first steps into college.

Lady luck has smiled you this once, or perhaps it was fate, that landed you and your all-time friend Kazuha in the same college.

Friend.

That doesn’t even begin to cut it. There is no denying whatever’s going on between you two has gone past platonic for a while.

The last rays of the afternoon sun filter in through the windows of the apartment you’ll be sharing.

This moment, it reminds you of the day your path crossed Kazuha’s twelve years ago.

A small smile tugs at your lips at the memory, your eyes landing on Kazuha’s back as he carries a box with some of his belongings.

He is taller and stronger than back then, his hair considerably longer, tied back into a messy bun, droplets of sweat enticingly sliding down the back of his neck.

And yet, you still see the same kind angelic boy who rescued you with a strawberry ice cream in the scorching summer heat.

That gives you an idea.

With a fond smile, you head to the small kitchen, retrieving a tub of chocolate ice cream from the fridge.

“Kazuha,” you call him. “Why don’t we take a break? Here.” You show him the ice cream box, setting it on the cheap dining table.

“That certainly would be welcome, hummingbird.” He chuckles, wiping the sweat away from his brow with his forearm.

His white cotton t-shirt rides up his frame, exposing part of his recently inked maple themed tattoo.

You can’t deny the heat in your cheeks every time you see it, even though you were there with him when he got it.

“Say aaah.” You tease, offering Kazuha a spoonful of chilly chocolate.

His tempting lips take the spoon in his mouth, as his hand comes to rest over yours in the handle.

And all you can hear at that moment is your heartbeat loud in your ears.

The way he tucks his hair behind his ear with his free hand and the way his lashes flutter against his cheeks like flecks of moondust certainly are hypnotizing.

“Sweet.” Kazuha announces, once he’s swallowed the treat. “Your turn.” He prompts, burying the spoon in the cool sweet cream.

And yet, his eyes don’t leave yours.

And if you pay attention, they flit to your lips as the breeze outside ruffles the treetops, the sunlight filtering through them catching in the maple lakes reflected in Kazuha’s eyes.

And if you were aware of your own actions, you’d realize your gaze is magnetic on those lips that smile at you, that smiled at you all those years ago.

“Kazuha…” You manage, out of breath, your nose mere millimeters away from his.

He recites your name, his pupils blown in the molten sunsets of his gaze.

And then the collision of your mutual kiss makes your whole world stop spinning.

Kazuha’s hands cup your cheeks, his slightly calloused thumbs brushing against your skin, tracing patterns in verse, about the unrivaled love and care he holds for you, that he’s always held for you.

Your hands find themselves buried in his hair, gently tugging on the elastic holding it together, liquid stardust cascading over his shoulders.

The spoon clatters out of Kazuha’s grasp to the small table.

His lips are so sweet on yours, the chocolate flavor very much lingering, as you desperately, tentatively drink him in.

Kazuha and his smiles, his hugs, his poems and all the nights up by his side, every moment constellated and immortalized by the tender flames of innocent first love.

The sun sets, as the ice cream starts to melt and you keep kissing Kazuha for the first time.

Chocolate had never tasted so sweet.

—

Ten years have gone by since the promise he made on that summer night.

Your shift at work has just ended and you’re hurrying down the street, hoping you are not running too late or look too much like a mess.

Finally, the accorded ice cream parlor comes into view and there he stands.

Strands of hair seemingly weaved out of cottony clouds wisp around his face, some of them tied into a low side ponytail, the signature crimson strand almost glinting in the blue sky’s sun. One of his hands rests on his pants’ pocket, while the other waves at you, a new tattoo adorning his upper wrist now.

And as with the previous one, you were also there when he got it.

Doves. Because you were his.

You got maple leaves inked that time, on your wrist as well, they always reminded you of him.

Your gazes cross underneath the cerulean skies, and you quicken your steps.

“Kazuha!” You call, slightly out of breath. “Sorry, have you been waiting for long?”

Your boyfriend gives you a soft smile, tucking a rebel strand of hair away from your face.

His touch was always so gentle, since that day almost twenty years ago, when his outstretched hand pulled you up from the hard abrasive ground.

“Not at all.” Kazuha chuckles, hearth-like gaze dancing across your face. “I just got here, and no matter how long, I’ll always wait for you, my dove.” He utters, his forehead resting on yours, hands still lingering around your cheeks.

“You are too sweet, did you know that?” You whisper, inches apart.

He chuckles, that airy melodious sound you could never get tired of.

“Never as sweet as your presence.” He murmurs, his tender lips lingering on your temple.

As you gush over him, your cheeks ablaze, Kazuha’s hand finds yours; together, you head towards the ice cream shop, taking a sit on a secluded corner by the window.

Your matching vanilla ice creams arrive, yours, a cone, his, a cup.

“Do you still remember, Kazu?” You ask, tasting the sweet treat, refreshing you from the heat outside. “The first time we met?”

“Strawberry.” He answers, autumn eyes soft on yours. “I gave you strawberry ice cream.”

Your eyes widen, a bashful smile tugging at your lips.

“You still remember that detail?”

“I could never forget, even if I tried.” Kazuha’s free hand finds yours over the table, cool thumb from holding the ice cream tracing soothing circles over the back of your hand. “Cookies, the night we promised to stay together always.” A gentle squeeze. “Chocolate, our first kiss.” He brings your hand to his lips, the most tender kiss this world has seen landing on your skin, his warm gaze never once leaving yours.

You can feel your face heating up, droplets of vanilla sliding down the cookie cone.

You hurry up to salvage them before they can coat your fingers, perhaps as an excuse to compose yourself.

Then, tender fingers caress your jaw, slightly calloused.

“May I have a taste, my hummingbird?”

“Kazuha, you ordered the exact same flavor.”

“Not exactly the same.” He utters, leaning to kiss the ice cream off your lips.

And no matter what flavor you were having, none was as sweet as the feeling of those lips of his that often spoke in flowers, enveloping yours so tenderly. Kazuha’s kisses feel like fiery passion in soothing autumn waves, flakes of golden light overshadowing the world around you, making you forget about rainy stormy days.

You kiss him back, with as much fervor, a leaf desperately clinging to a tree branch on a late summer breeze.

Kazuha’s hand holding yours feels the stickiness of melted vanilla pooling on your fingers.

He hopes he can replace it by the ring safely tucked on his pocket very soon.

“Mine’s not as sweet.” Are your poet’s words when you two pull away, hands and gazes still linked.

And you can’t help but agree that ice cream did indeed always taste better with his lips on yours.

Hello!! I love your writing!! Could you do Kazuha with fluff prompt 2? (Gender neutral pronouns)

fluff prompt 2 — kazuha x gn! reader

a/n — hiii!! thank you so much<3 and ofc here’s some kazuha fluff! also sorry this is a short one it’s like 3 in the morning and i’m tired

cw — none :,)

pairing(s) — kazuha x gn! reader

story — you and kazuha have been friends for as long as you can remember, basically since you have joined the crux. other members say he has a crush on you, but you’re certain he does not.

prompt — ❝you’re so oblivious aren’t you?❞

♡ ♡ ♡

“you seriously can’t tell that he’s flirting with you?” furong, one of the members of the crux says.

“he’s not, he’s just being nice. why does everyone say he’s got a crush on me?” you roll your eyes.

“you’re just in denial, y/n.” furong laughs as she walks away from me. i look up towards kazuha, who’s sitting on the railing on the alcor, staring into the sea.

i can see beidou walk up to him and exchange a few words. you think about what furong said and also what a bunch of people have said too before her. even captain beidou told me that he had feelings for me. maybe i just didn’t want to think about my best friend feeling that way towards me.

sure, it’s not a bad thing. kazuha is very attractive, but it just seemed wrong. you guys have been so close ever since you’ve joined the crux.

you sigh softly and make your way towards where kazuha and beidou were standing.

“hey kazuha,” you greet him and then look towards beidou. “hello, captain beidou.”

“hey, y/n.” she replies with a big smirk. “i’ll leave you two to it.”

she gives us both a look that makes me shake my head in response and chuckle a bit. i walk over to kazuha and take a seat beside him on the railing.

“how do you even sit up here? it’s scary. what if you fell in?” you question, looking down at the rushing water.

“i’m a good swimmer,” he winks.

“sure..” you roll your eyes, pulling yourself closer to kazuha. you both look up at the sky, watching the clouds slowly move throughout the sky.

“i heard there’s going to be a meteor shower tonight.” kazuha elbows you a little. “want to stay up with me and watch it?”

“of course.” you grin. meteor showers are one of the things you and kazuha love watching together, you wouldn’t miss for the world.

“good,” he replies, “looking forward to it.”

it feels like forever as you wait for night to come so you and kazuha can watch the meteor shower. keeping yourself occupied is the worst part when it comes to these slow hours ahead of you.

once night comes, you head up where he usually is sitting and he has a whole setup placed out for you. a nice comfy blanket for us to sit and lay on, some ice cold refreshments, a telescope, and a few snacks.

“kazuha.. this is so nice.. thank you.” you say as you run up to him to give him a big hug.

“you’re welcome, y/n.” he replies, “i knew you’d like it.”

you quickly head over to the blanket and lay back, looking directly up at the sky. kazuha lays down beside you. as you get lost in the sea of stars, kazuha’s hand makes its way down to yours, sliding his fingers into yours.

“kazuha..” you murmur as you both share this contact.

“shh. the meteor shower is about to start.” kazuha whispers.

all of a sudden thousands of beautiful meteors fill up the sky. you can’t help but smile as you watch the beauty of the sky show itself right in front of you.

“you’re so oblivious, aren’t you?” kazuha spews out, eyes still stuck on the beautiful dark sky full of shooting stars.

“what do you mean?” you question, turning your head towards him. he looks at you with a soft expression on his face, but serious.

“i like you, y/n.” he admits. well there it is. just like everyone else was saying, there was kazuha’s true feelings out there like that. you didn’t know what to say. should you act like you didn’t hear him, should you say that you like him too? what to do? but before you can truly think about what you are going to say the words just spew out of my mouth.

Title: Wandering Ghost

Character(s): Kazuha (Genshin Impact) Summary: They told you never to make a promise to a ghost, and for the most part you did follow. But you have been curious about that ghost who lived in the woods. Warnings/tags: Yandere themes, Gn!reader, kidnapping, minor character death, slight angst(?), 1.3k words

[ - A little present~! Event - Closed - ]

Ever since you were a child, you could always see ghosts and spirits. Wearing the clothes that they died in or were buried with, their body a little faded that you could see through them. It wasn't normal really when both your parents nor most of the villagers in your hometown were not even able to see them.

Some looked at you with amazement and reverence, hoping to use you as some sort of link between the living and the dead. Some looked at you with suspicion and distrust while others kept their distance away from you. There was an old saying in the village after all... that those who could see the dead would disappear one day, leaving no note nor evidence of where they left.

They believe spirits could easily fall in love with those who could see them and as easily take them away.

That was what your parents were afraid of, fearing they would see their child suddenly disappear from their eyes when they were not looking. Taken away from them to the spirit world. They made you promise them that you will never make a promise with a spirit or yokai, as they knew it would only be impossible to take you away from them altogether.

"Never make a promise with a spirit." You mumbled to yourself a habit that your parents created to remind yourself. You looked outside from the window, getting ready to head to the woods to gather and store wood for the coming winter. The sun was high up in the sky.

You gathered as much wood as you can, the whole day taking a break every so often when you were tired but also for lunch. Time passed, and soon, the sun was setting.

"Who are you?" You asked cautiously, eyes narrowed a little far away you saw a silhouette of a man. His eyes widen in surprise that you could see him yet just as naturally, just as quickly accepted the fact that you could and smiled.

"I am just a wandering spirit... Kaedehara Kazuha."

The man spoke in a soft tone and when you figured that he wasn't anything dangerous you slowly dropped your guard around him, you have seen many of these kinds of spirits, and while some are dangerous almost as if insanity had taken over them, Kazuha in comparison to them was calmer.

The spirit was curious as to how you were able to see him. Alone for so long, he wished to talk to someone even just once. You pitied the ghost when he told you how long was stuck here, how long he was alone, however, you were still cautious after all the people around you always told you to be careful. To stay cautious so as not to let the ghost grow attached to you. But you were also curious about him, too, when you figured out who he was and as he told you his story of the past.

He had a calm demeanor and again kind and soft-spoken. He had this whimsical feeling around him as if the wind spoke to him. Sometimes, you thought that was the case. You were curious about the young wandering samurai and how he had died.

Whenever you would head to the woods, you would see Kazuha somewhere between the trees looking at you, a smile gracing his lips when you notice him as he flew towards you his feet not quite reaching the grassy floor, asking your day and such. 

You have become sort of friends. When he asked you if you would continue to stay with him as a companion with whom he could talk when he feels lonely… and you accepted his request.

You shouldn't have done it. You shouldn't have made a promise, one so vague and could be manipulated as they see fit.

When did it take a turn for the worst... after months into your friendship, you finally told him that you thought you found the one that you love. Someone who you thought you could spend your life with, and that this person also looked at you the same way. The smile on Kazuha's face was stiff, yet you were just too excited to notice as he asked you to continue talking. You told him of your partner's eyes and their personality. You told them that you have always found them to be lovely or charming, but there was never a chance for you and them to talk. Till a week ago.

Yet right as soon after your heart shattered like glass, it was as if you felt something within you left. Ripped from your body leaving so so cold.

"It was a windy day... They went a little farther than usual from the village close to the cliffs and..."

You didn't know what to make of this news as your friend stared at your face, your hands and feet were cold, your heart breathing loudly in your ears and so was the sound of your breath. You snapped. Your friend and a neighbor who happened to be near had to hold you back as you tried to push their arms away frantically, trying to escape their hold to look for your loved one.

But they could do nothing.

"What did you do, Kazuha!!" You shouted in anger, the howling sounds of the wind loud in your ears as you glared at the spirit. Your heart was broken and some would think that you were accusing the spirit due to sadness instead of a clear mind. But you knew... you knew that it was him who did it. He was the one who cause your pain and anguish.

The soft look that he gave you, as if unaffected by your accusations. On his hand, he held a small leaf, a physical one something you knew he could create tunes with as he had shown you on many occasions. Releasing the leaf, he let it return to the wind to the living world and not in the dead man's hand.

"Answer me, Kazuha! Why did you do it!!" You demanded, tears in your eyes but refusing to shed. Not when you wanted answers. Not when you were in front of the one who pushed your loved one to the peak of the mountain. "I should have never trusted you!!"

"Don't cry... don't cry. It will ruin and stain your lovely skin for something so useless." Kazuha touched your face, a ghost touch that leaves chills down your spine as you tried to push his hand away only to pass through. "What have you done, Kazuha." You said unamused, all you wanted were answers before you return back to your home and have time for yourself in sorrow, never to step foot in the forest where he was ever again.

And he knew it, too.

Kazuha looks down at you, his all too near to your so close. "I've asked myself this question many times, ever since I died. My clan was on the verge of collapsing when I was born, and when I grew, the only thing that remained was my life, which had been deemed a criminal." Kazuha's hands were cold to your skin as he continued to whisper, you have heard of this story once told by an old man who once worked for the Kaedehara clan a long long time ago but also from him.

"Yet in my attempts to flee, I was soon caught and killed. I thought that was my end however when I woke up, I have become a ghost shackled here. I believe that a person could become a ghost because something here was holding them back. I wondered why I have become one as I do not have anything anymore and thought that I have accepted my faith." You felt your tears wiped gently by his thumb, his eyes gently looking down on you. "I wandered aimlessly in circles till I met you."

"And I think I found my answer."

It wasn't long before the village started its search for you in the forest. The people you knew called out your name, hoping to receive an answer back. But it was too late, as another one who could see the past was taken away from this world in the arms of a ghost who loved them dearly.

Flower crown

Summary: Kazuha and you are making flower crowns

"Now you take the ends of the flowers, fold them like this... And ta-da!"

You take your finished flower crown and place it onto Kazuha's white locks. The colors of the flowers complement his hair as well as his ruby-colored eyes and make him look prettier than ever.

"How are you so good at it? I find it quite tricky to knot the stems together..." His eyebrows dip more and more, as his struggle continues. You offered him a helping hand, but he insists on finishing his crown for you without your help.

You notice how a loose hair strand falls onto Kazuha's face from behind his ear, only to block his view. Since his hands are already occupied, you take out your hair clip which you are always carrying with you for situations like this and fix his hair.

"There you go."

"Thanks, dove. What would I do without you?" he meets your eyes and flashes you a sweet smile.

"You probably would live a life without knowing how to make flower crowns."

Kazuha snickers and moves his hand on top of yours. "This sounds like a miserable life. I'm glad to have you."

You can feel the warmth of his palm as he gives your hand a gentle squeeze.

"Alright! I think I'm done." He picks up the crown and places it carefully on your head. "Now we're matching! The crown was made with lots of love. I hope you treasure it."

A bright smile appears on your face. "Of course, I will!"

OCTOBER BIRDS.

Sometimes, sad memories resurface on the days that are supposed to be the happiest.

ft. Kaedehara Kazuha x gn! reader.

cw/genre: I had imagined this in a modern au… Other than that, angsty fluff and comfort for Kazu.

Something I put together tonight for my beloved Kazuha’s birthday ! It was inspired by a fanart I saw on twitter. It ended up being more angsty than I anticipated… Regardless, I hope you enjoy <3

Reblogs and comments appreciated !

‘Snap’

The sound of a camera shutter pulls you out from your momentary daze.

You turn around, smiling at the author of your unsuspecting picture.

He returns the smile, his features rivaling the gentleness of the sunset before you.

“Kazuha,” You chuckle. “Come join me already! Why so many pictures?” You ask him, with a soft laugh.

He closes his eyes for a moment. an enigmatic smile on those lips that whispered the sweetest verses.

In your silence, the white kitten that was resting on your lover’s shoulder until a moment ago, jumps down, running to rest on your lap.

You pet the little one in between his ears, as the feline purrs happily.

This time, Kazuha doesn’t take a picture.

He finally joins you, sitting beside you in the grass.

“Because you’re stunning, dove.” He replies to your lingering question.

His face nuzzles against the crook of your neck, rosy lips that carried the poetry of the wind and the sea, tenderly brushing your skin.

One of your hands reaches up to comb through his hair, stars threaded in silken moon flowing like waves against a clear sand coast.

“Why, thank you, but, you know, I’m not going anywhere, Kazuha.” A kiss to his temple. “You have me right here.”

He lets out a soft sigh, leaning into your touch.

It’s so peaceful here; just you and him, your kitten pawing his legs and the sounds of the late October birds.

Kazuha wishes he could capture this moment forever, to freeze it in time; a photograph that never succumbs to the inevitable passing of light and time.

“I know, I know…” The poet trails off, for once, seemingly at a loss for words. “It’s just… I don’t want this moment to end.”

You halt your movements.

“Kazuha.” You call his name, to him, to the last rays of sun that are hiding behind the distant horizon. “Look at me.”

Your hands cup his face, thumbs smoothing over his cheeks.

Those gentle autumn eyes draw you in, akin to the fleeting light of a candle on a snowy night. Warm, comforting, beckoning you to put your hands around it as you recall fond memories.

And yet, you can see so much grief and loss in them on instances like this one.

Long lashes flutter closed and open again, a complete constellation, enduring the blaze of a dawning sky.

“Today is your special day, my love.” You tell him, tone gentle. “It’s too beautiful a day to think about sad things, don’t you think?” You offer him a melancholy smile. Your hands find his, fingers slotting between his.

“Maybe…” He trails off. “I’m sorry you had to see me like this just now.” Kazuha lets out with a sigh.

“Don’t worry about it, my dear.” You scoot closer to him, arms wrapping around his form. “You’ll always have me here, I told you.”

For a fleeting moment, both your gazes stare at the approaching nightfall, coppery light fading to transitioning shades of blue flecked in silver.

At the point where they both merge, an intrepid shooting star dares to brave the twilight.

“Make a wish, Kazuha.” You whisper.

Your kitten meows, as if seconding your statement, eliciting a chuckle from the poet.

“Alright, done.” Is his reply, his gaze, that merges with the still orange horizon, focused on you.

Your faces are inches apart; the starry infinity reduced to your mingled breaths; every colliding nebula, silent in comparison to your tangled heartbeats.

You close the distance.

“Happy birthday, my beloved.”

Are your last words, before leaning in.

[kefiteria]

My Campfire

A comfort letter from Kazuha just for you.

花の香や

あるじなくさし

山桜

- Matsuo Bashō's

As I sit by the shorelines, with the waves as my only companion, my thoughts turn to you. I hope these words find you in a moment of peace and comfort, wrapped in the embrace of familiarity and warmth.

Picture this: you and me, sitting together under a blanket of stars, our laughter mingling with the crackling of the campfire. There's a sense of ease and contentment in the air, as if time itself has slowed down to savor this precious moment. Can you feel it too?

In the silence of the night, with only the gentle lapping of the waves and the flickering of the flames to accompany us, let's share our stories and dreams, our fears and hopes. There's no judgment here, only understanding and acceptance. Know that your words are safe with me, cherished and held close to my heart.

Life can be overwhelming at times, like a storm raging around us, threatening to engulf us in darkness. But amidst the chaos, there is a beacon of light, guiding us through the tumultuous seas. That light, my dear dove, is the bond we share, forged through shared experiences and unwavering support.

When the weight of the world becomes too much to bear, remember that I am here for you. Whether it's a listening ear, a comforting embrace, or simply a silent presence, know that you are not alone in your struggles. Together, we can weather any storm that comes our way, drawing strength from each other's resilience and courage.

So let's take a moment to breathe, to simply be in each other's company, finding solace in the simple pleasures of friendship. And as we gaze up at the stars, let us be reminded of the beauty and wonder that surround us, even in the darkest of times.

I'd love to write more, my dove, to bring you comfort and ease your worries with every word penned. Yet, there's a warmth in face-to-face connection that cannot be replicated on paper. Let's hold on to the promise of meeting soon, where our conversations can flow freely, wrapped in the intimacy of shared moments.

Until then, remember this: every time I see a star, I'm reminded of your radiant smile. It's a comfort in the dark, a guiding light that leads me back to you. Take care, my dear friend, and don't forget to smile, for your smile has the power to light up even the darkest of nights. Until our paths cross again, keep shining bright.

With warmth,

Kazuha.

🍓Anemo Boys With a Carefree Lover🍓

♡Venti♡

Venti really likes your personality!

He loves the vibes that comes along with it, it’s so calming. Graceful like the wind.

He likes hearing you talk, something about your voice is just longing for him to hear. It’s smooth and delicate, as if you were a lyre playing delicate music within its strings.

He enjoys telling you stories, just seeing your eyes that are full of intrigue and how they listen to the words that flow out from behind his lips just brings him pure joy.

Walks with you around Mondstadt are peaceful and cooling.

When you two hold hands, he rubs his thumb across the fine texture of your hand.

On your walks he would also bring along his handy Lyre to play some music just for you.

He loves how you would hum the tune of the musical strings of the lyre either before or after he plays it. It shows him that you were listening and taking those notes into your heart.

Please, sing or hum to him. Doesn’t matter if it’s one of the songs that he played on the lyre or just completely made up, just allow the notes to come out.

⭐️All summed up, Venti enjoys your presence. He loves how he feels like all his worries and problems have left his sight and body when he’s with you. It’s truly a blessing to have you around with him, doesn’t matter if he may seem a little nervewrecking, you will always love him and he will always love you.

♡ Shikanoin Heizou♡

Heizou himself is a Free-spirit and lively-cheerful.

He enjoys your company a lot and never wants to miss a time where he has the time to spend some time with you.

He loves how you allow him to put his head in your lap as you run your fingers in his hair, it’s so calming.

When you two aren’t together, his mind is just on about you, he just can’t get you out of his head and sometimes it even distracts him from his work! But hey, he doesn’t mind. He’s unruly anyway.

Heizou for some reason loves staring at you.

It’s your face. Your face is just so calm and peaceful, as well as delicate and he just can’t help but stare at you.

You just stand there awkwardly, wondering why in the world he’s just staring at you with that smile on his face. You would advert yourself eyes away from his own slowly and awkwardly as the silence is just…ugh.

When your like very suspicious since he’s been staring at you for some time now you would turn around and ask him, “What are you doing?”

“Just taking a look at the view.”

⭐️Heizou may be funny at times in his very own way but other than that, you two are close. Heizou enjoys how your always here for him. He can never get you out of his mind but does he plan on doing so? No. Absolutely not. He loves you dearly and you love him, that’s just how it is.

♡Kaedehara Kazuha♡

Kazuha adores you.

He is calm and collected as well so having a lover who is in the same mindset as him is sweet.

Kazuha loves the quiet, peaceful atmosphere with you, it’s pleasing to him and he can’t help but just sink right into it.

Like Venti, Kazuha loves your tone of voice. It’s so smooth and it makes his heart flutter ever so slightly that he can’t help but listen and stare at you in admiration.

When he has his fair share of depressing death of Tomo, you are always there to comfort him with care. Your fingers brush over his white and red strand of hair as you whisper sweet nothings into his ear ever so sweetly.

Kazuha loves to be close to you. While watching the sunset or sunrise or simply just the stars in the dark sky, he would he against you. You both silently sat there side by side, enjoying the quiet times.

He looks at the Maple Leaves falling off the trees as you hold hands and admire them. You enjoy seeing him and talk about the Maple Leaves every once in a while, it’s nice to hear him go on about them.

You two travel the world together, hand in hand, explore, adventure, and have some quiet time with one another and have interesting encounters with others.

Your day with Kazuha is always filled with sweetness, love, and peace.

⭐️You and Kazuha fit together like a puzzle piece. It’s nice to see that you two are always together and it’s just so beautiful. Kazuha sees you as a blessing to his eye, it’s appealing to him. You never fail to make his day, and when I mean you never fail is that you never fail. At all.

♡Wanderer♡

Wanderer can be a confusing person, hotheaded, short tempered. You are a calm and carefree person. It’s a strange combination…

Some people don’t even know how you two even managed together, it’s a miracle. But Wanderer overhears this and he just scoffs. Yet, he can’t help but feel his heart warm and melt when he hears you say that patience is key. You have the patience for him, even when he can be a pain.

It may not seem like it, nor will he ever admit it but he really likes your presence. Probably the number 1 presence he can even stand.

When his nerves are wilding and are out of control he would have to immediately stomp over to you to cool down. You just help him cool off and get back into composure.

He won’t admit it (as if he admits to anything that he really likes about you) but he really does love your personality. It’s like you make him forget about all the bad things he has been through and the pain, it really is something that he longs for.

He is thankful for you, really. He knows for sure that you won’t ever betray him in any form or eat, cause you stayed with him to the end. You are really an angel that fell from heaven.

Your touch always makes him melt completely, it’s so soothing and it just makes him lean into it more. He cant help but do so. Your warmth and comfort is what he longed for so many years, it’s comforting for him and it’s a safe place.

This also comes with protecting you from god knows what. If he wants you to stay with him, he will do anything in his power to make sure that you do.

He may be short but he sure is aggressive, that’s a fact.

⭐️You and Wanderer may seem like your relationship is…strange and unstable. But in reality, it’s actually sweet. Just because you two are opposites doesn’t mean that you two don’t go together. Wanderer loves you, he just shows it in his own special ways of his very own. You love him, you just show your love in your very own special ways as well.

♡Xiao♡

Xiao is quiet his own self. But he does love your presence. It’s calming and he can just melt into it.

Of course, there are times where he gets flustered from your sweet sayings to him. It never fails to do so.

When he heard you call his name, your voice is sweet. That’s when you aren’t in danger. He immediately goes to you, only to be greeted by you, holding him close to you when he made his appearance in your vision.

Xiao is touch starved as well, so he just melts in your touch and stays in it. He loves it, he longs for it, he needs it and he wants it. The way your fingers move arc it’s his hair is so pleasing to him, the way you hum out a small tune is music to his ears and is a pleasing that he enjoys so much.

When your in danger, he is prepared to fight anything or anyone. He is protective of you and will proceed to do so. He won’t allow anything to harm his lover. It’s his job to protect them at all costs, no matter what. It’s his duty.

If your injured he would take care of you, staying by your side as long as he can. He is so worried about you, and he feels like he failed to protect you. But you reassure him that it’s okay and how your proud of him, he needs to hear the words from you. 

You two would stand on the balcony together, side by side. It’s sweet and you both enjoy it.

He is thinking about you constantly when your not around.

Xiao is just all about you. When someone asks about you he would rant about you to them without even knowing.

⭐️Xiao can’t help his love for you. His heart melts for your touch and love and he just can’t get enough of it. You love him very much and he feels the same way.

Clingy boys?!?!

Ft; Scaramouche, Kazuha, Heizou, Xiao

:info: Fluffy stuff [cute] // GN reader // mentions of pills // Sick person in Scaramouches // angst in Xiaos // VERY Sick reader in Xiaos // blood

Scaramouche

-- MODERN

"Scaramouche I'm home." You called out.

Usually when you would come home, your roommate Scaramouche would be screaming at the top of his lungs, or something else. The reason for that is because your roommate is actually a streamer. But today was awfully quiet.

"Scaramouche?"

You just got back from your sleepover at Ganyu's house.

You put down your bag and went upstairs.

"Scaramouche are you sleeping?"

You went to his bedroom.

You opened the door slightly to Scaramouche being bundled up in blankets while talking.

"Yeah no, I'm not playing that horror game again."

"You alright Scara? Youre looking pale and youre literally sweating lmao" a robotic man's voice came from his computer.

"I woke up with a fever and I'm not gonna play those stupid little games today, just here to talk until my roommate gets home."

"Scaramouche?"

You noticed Scaramouche get scared by your voice.

"You alright?"

Scaramouche sneezed.

"You think?"

"Alright time to turn off that stream and rest it's not good for you, you know?"

"You aren't my mom, ____."

"Yeah yeah yeah whatever. I'll take care of you."

"Kay' bye stream." Scaramouche said.

He turned off the computer and he went to his bed.

"Let me take your temperature Scara."

"I can do it on my own.." he mumbled.

"Whatever you say."

Scaramouche took his temperature and showed you.

"39.7?!" You almost screamed.

"You're hurting my ears."

"Yeah yeah whatever lie down hold up!"

You rushed out the room and you came back with a bowl of water and a towel.

You put the towel in the water and squeezed the extra water out then put it on his forehead.

"Don't get up, I'll get medicine."

You left the room.

You remembered Ganyu's little sister, Qiqi gave you some medicine before you had left.

You took your bag and took the medicine and got a water bottle.

"Scaramouche?"

"What?"

"Okay, just making sure you don't die on me."

"I'm not gonna die you dumbo."

"Yeah but I'm worried!"

"Whatever."

You placed the pills on Scaramouches bed desk and you pulled up a chair.

"Get up Scaramouche, lemme give you some medicine."

"Kay'."

Scaramouche sat up as you gave him 2 pills.

"I don't think this stuff is bitter nor is it sweet, so I think it'll just taste like nothing. If you need water it's right here." And you knew damn well he couldn't even open a water bottle even though you were physically weaker than him.

You opened the water bottle for in just in case as he ate the medicine.

You handed Scaramouche the water bottle as he washed it down.

"Feel a little better?"

"Eh."

"I'll go now text me if you need anythin—" You got up but you felt a tight grip around you wrist.

"Don't go."

"Huh?"

Scaramouches expression was almost vulnerable.

You smiled.

"Okay, I'll stay for a bit."

You sat back down as Scaramouche softened his grip and he fell asleep.

You stared at him as his towel was getting warm, so you soaked it again.

You placed it on his forehead and you got on the floor as you rested your head on his bed.

"I wish time could stay like this for a little longer." A smile painted your face.

You closed your eyes as your drifted off to sleep.

During the sleep, you and Scaramouche intertwined hands together as you both shared the warmth of each other.

Kazuha

-- TEVYAT

Kazuha, Your boyfriend had his head on your lap as you pet his head.

Kazuha had quiet snores as you smiled lightly at the thought of him.

It was a tiring day for him especially because he had to go to the crux, then went traveling with the traveller.

'Oh shoot, I hadn't made dinner yet!'

You got up very quietly as you set his head on the couch replacing your spot with a pillow.

As soon as you looked back you felt two arms around your waist.

"Kazuha I have to make dinner for the both of us."

"Forget dinner, I just wanna be with you. That is all."

Kazuha put his head on your shoulder as his hair tickled your neck and chin.

You sighed as you turned around and hugged him back.

"Cmon, I gotta make dinner I know you're like crazy hungry too!"

"No."

"Kazuha cmonnn!! Lemme go!!!"

You regretted hugging him back as he tighten his grip around you.

"Let me be with this moment, love."

You blushed at the pet name.

"I'll spend all morning in bed with you for in exchange of letting me go!"

"No."

"Then what?"

"Just let me embrace you little, love."

..

"Fine."

He hugged walked to the couch as he threw himself on it with you in his arms.

You felt warm and cozy. So you wanted to stay in that position for awhile.

Just, awhile.

Just awhile.

Kazuha cuddled you and you accepted it, that night you two slept on the couch. And for that Kazuha felt bad so he cooked dinner for the both of you instead.

Heizou

-- MODERN

"Cmon!!"

"Nooooo..."

It was morning, but a weekend. You wanted to get up and eat food but Heizou didn't want you to go.

"Heizou! I'll drop kick you just let me go!"

"Noo."

"I'm hungry so let me go!"

"I can feed you something else, wink wink." Heizou said.

"Nows not the time!"

"Hey stop kicking!" Heizou complained.

"That's what you get in return!"

Heizou made you turn around and he cupped your cheeks.

He kissed you, for a long time until you both ran out of air.

"Cmon just let me go please."

"No."

"Why not?"

"It's a weekend, so why not just spend time with your oh-so-darling Heizou would you not?"

"Just let me go pleasee.."

"No."

"I know it's a weekend– but please your suffocating me!"

"My word is finale, no."

"Ugh, fine."

"Yay!" He hugged you tightly and fell asleep.

"I wanna go on my phone..." you mumbled.

His hair tickled your neck and made you sleepy aswell. Forget that you were hungry, Heizou is more important. So you slept with Heizou for the rest of the morning.

Xiao

-- TEVYAT

"I brought your medication, ____."

"Thank you."

You sat up and took the pill-like medication and washed it down with water.

"Have you felt better these days?"

"I've been feeling the same."

"Oh, well call out my name if you need anything."

"I will, Xiao."

"Sit up, let me brush your hair."

"Okay."

Xiao helped you up as he got a hair brush and brushed your hair.

"Qiqi and Ganyu will be coming by, make sure to let them in if you have the energy too. If you don't just call my name."

"Okay." You coughed a little.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, just.. feeling a little tired."

"Lie down, let me get you some food. You mortals needs so much tch."

"You don't need to take care of me everyday you know? Qiqi and Baizhu already do."

"But they're too busy for your own good. Your weaker than a normal mortal."

When you were born, you had an illness that could be cured but yours was much worse and it was a 50/50 of your survival.

"You have no need to worry." You mumble.

"____?" No response.

Xiao looked behind him as he saw you drifting off to dreamland.

"You mortals need so much. But.." He approached you.

He removed a few strands of hair in front of your face.

"Please don't die on me."

Xiao then stood up and disappeared.

---

You opened your eyes.

"Xiao?"

"Yes?" Xiao appeared faster than a bolt of lighting.

"I feel a bit worse."

"Are you alright?" He helped you sit up as he had his hands on your shoulders.

You coughed and you covered your mouth with your two hands.

Blood came out.

"Are you alright?!"

"I feel dizzy.."

"Lie down let me get you water and your medicine." He hurriedly panicked and left the room in a haste bringing water and medicine like he had said.

"Drink this, you'll be okay I'm here."

He fed you the medicine and made you drink the water.

"Did the pain weaken a bit?"

"Mhm."

"I'll be here."

He brought you in a hug where you felt still so tired.

You brought your weak hand to hug him back.

"You're so warm, Xiao." You mumbled.

"I'll watch over you, don't worry."

Xiao set you back on the bed and made you comfortable.

Xiao heard the door knock and he left the room.

"I'll be back."

You watched him leave the room as you overheard their conversation.

"Hi Xiao! Were here to watch ____."

"Hello."

"Hey hey I came too!~"

3 people walked in.

Qiqi, xiangling, and Hu tao.

"Hello ____! How are you doing? Are you hungry? I'll make you some food!" Xiangling asked.

"I'm hungry, and thank you."

"Qiqi brought you your medicine, Baizhu said to keep a close eye on you."

"Thank you Qiqi for your herbs."

"I brought some snacks and food! Want some?" Hu tao asked.

"Sure." You smiled.

"Thanks again." You said that as you sat up.

"Bye ____! We'll see you next time!" Xiangling left as she closed the door.

"Xiao?"

"Yes?" You looked over where his voice came from and he was on the opposite end of your bed.

You looked at him as he had a dreadfully sorrowful aura around him.

You were gonna reach your hand until you felt pain everywhere in your body.

You choked and coughed.

"____! Are you okay?!"

You kept on coughing and Xiao put a towel on your mouth. He removed it after you had stopped and blood came out, a lot.

"You can't keep on pushing yourself, let me get you cleaned up." Xiao helped you get up as he brought you to the bathroom.

"Are you alright? I can stay by your side if you want."

"Xiao."

"Yes?"

"What if I were to die?"

"Don't say such idiotic stuff."

"But what if I do?" You looked at him.

His face softened.

"Enough of that, let's go to bed."

"Us?"

"..."

He carried you to your bed bridal way and set you down as he made you comfy.

"Goodnight, Xiao. Sleep well." You smiled at him.

"... goodnight, ____."

You smiled at him as you closed your eyes and drifted off to dreamland.

Morning

Xiao had slept by your side and he had awoke early to see you still sound asleep.

He left to go to the kitchen to make you something. He had told the people of wangshu inn about you and they taught him recipes for the sick, like you.

Today felt like any other day, just him taking care of you, and you waiting for him to come.

"What if I were to die?" Those words rang through his head like a nightmare.

He looked through your cabinets until you heard shuffling.

"____?"

He looked to your bedroom as he found you sitting up.

"Don't push yourself so hard, your still a weak mortal." Xiao sat beside you as he looked at the window beside your bed.

"Xiao."

"What?"

"I feel like something is wrong."

"What do you mean?"

"I feel.." He was about to look at you until you collapsed on his chest.

"You're awfully warm today, you're usually cold."

Xiao repositioned you as he saw your sweating face.

"Are you okay?"

"I knew this day would come."

"Don't say such things!"

"I knew it wouldn't last forever."

"What do you mean?!" Xiao panicked.

"Xiao."

"What?" His voice was less harsh and had softened.

"May I tell you something?"

"And what is it?"

You smiled as you lifted your hand to cup his cheek.

"I love you, Xiao."

"I.."

He hugged you.

"I love you too."

"When I die, Xiao."

"Don't say such things. You aren't going to die."

"I promise to come back for you. When I have passed on, I will come back. And I promise you."

"What is that promise?" His voice was wobbly and he tighten his hug.

"I promise you I'll know you better so I can live an entirety with you, not now though."

"When I have passed on, I wish to remember my memories with you Xiao. I want to stay with you."

"Please don't go yet, not now." Xiao begged.

"My time is not forever you know?" Xiao felt you smile.

"Please don't go." His voice was unstable and he felt like crying, you could feel that.

"I will come back for you."

"____."

"Yes, Xiao?"

"You promise you'll come back for me?"

"Yes."

"Then I'll wait, even if it costs an eternity."

"I love you, Xiao."

"I love you too." He felt your arm on his back fall down.

"____?"

No response.

He released from the hug to see you smiling.

He couldn't stop himself but he couldn't imagine him breaking down again in a life time.

He knew you were gone.

"I'll wait for an eternity for you." Xiao sobbed into your cold shoulder.

"I'll wait for an eternity, for you ____."

sweet lovin’ ft. kaedehara kazuha

featuring kaedehara kazuha x fem!reader

content warning: good love making, massages, fingering, PRAISE, pet names, unprotected sex, love bites, just sweet and gentle sex tbh.

inspired by me exercising for once and coming back sore af

[ nsfw under the cut — mdni ]

“Ah! Kazuha, it hurts…”

He grimaced, “I’m sorry, my love.”

You spent the entire day in bed, feeling incredibly sore in your thighs and calves. You clearly over exerted yourself, the unforgiving pain biting your muscles in retaliation.

Kazuha, being the ever doting lover that he is, took it upon himself to make you feel better. He couldn’t stand the sight of you in plain discomfort, it ached his heart too much. Then he thought, what better than a relaxing massage to soothe your muscles?

“Perhaps this is your karma for not listening to me when I told you to take things easy,” he remarked, rubbing your thighs.

You hissed. “I won’t get anywhere without proper t-training.”

Kazuha shook his head disapprovingly, “Training is meaningless if you get hurt like this.”

Your head flopped back against the pillows with a sigh, “Alright, I’m sorry. I promise to take it slowly next time.”

He smiled and continued with his task at hand. However, you remained restless, writhing whenever he went over a particularly sore spot, crying out his name.

Kazuha stopped and leaned back, deep in thought as to how he could relieve your pain without putting you through the wringer even more.

Then, it hit him. He crawled on top of you and caressed your cheek, “My love, may I try something different?”

You nodded and watched as he moved back down. His fingers played with the hem of your bottoms, before pulling the garment down gently.

When it was just your panties remaining, Kazuha couldn’t help but stare at you. The sight before him beat any sunset he had ever witnessed on his travels. Whether in the high mountain tops of Liyue, or the deep blue sea by Inazuma, Kazuha had never struck a beauty quite like yours.

His hands hovered above your panties, he looked back up at you, first asking for your consent with his eyes, then his words, “May I?”

You once again nodded and let out a meek “Yes”. Without further hesitation, Kazuha dragged your panties down your legs, placing a short kiss on your calf before he took them off completely.

“So beautiful, utterly breathtaking,” he traced a finger over your core and smiled, “…and so wet.”

His digit probed at your entrance, slightly teasing you. He finally plunged his finger inside of you, moving ever so slowly.

Whilst he did that, his other hand came back up to soothe your taut muscles. You had to hand it to Kazuha, his idea was brilliant; you could barely feel the soreness over the hypnotic pleasure he was giving you right now.

But he moved so slowly, so calculated. You wanted him to speed up a bit, you needed him to fill you up more.

“Kazuha…too slow…” You whined.

“I’m going slow for your own good, angel.”

“But K-Kazu—ah—!! Want it f-faster…” You pleaded, your mouth falling open when he added a second finger.

“It won’t feel good, dear. Just—“

You grew impatient, too drunk on the feeling of his skilled fingers. You bucked your hips upwards, grinding yourself faster against his movements. You completely forgot about your sore thighs that your sudden move resulted in a sharp sting.

You cried out in pain, Kazuha immediately stopped and pulled his fingers out. He tutted and sighed, “Why won’t you listen to me, hm?”

You sniffled, from both the ache of your thighs and the unsatisfied end to your pleasure. Kazuha carefully rid himself of his pants and boxers, aligning himself with your hole.

“Now don’t fuss, this is what you wanted, isn’t it?” Was all he said before he rocked his hips into you, bottoming out soon after.

He grabbed your hips firmly, “We’re going slow.”

The feeling of him inside your walls made your eyes cross. Even though his pace was slower than what you would have preferred, it didn’t matter because the drag of his cock in and out of you felt like heaven. He was hitting all the right spots deep inside you, like he had your body memorized down to the smallest detail.

Although your mind was getting hazy from how blissful it felt, you could still sense his hands massaging your thighs ever so softly.

“How do you feel now, love?” He asked.

“So…so good, Kazuha. Mmm, keep going…”

He leaned down and peppered sweet kisses all over your neck, taking his time to nibble on the sensitive skin and leave heart-shaped love bites.

You let out a string of moans, edging into your climax. The feeling of him filling you up so nicely, with the added stimulation of his fingers dancing across your skin to soothe your soreness was too much for you. You threw your arms around Kazuha’s neck, moving your lips closer to his ear.

“Ah~!! ‘m close…so close! Please Kazuha please, please—!”

Kaedehara Kazuha was far from a cruel man, how could he not grant his beloved’s wishes when you were asking so nicely? His thumb found your clit and rubbed it with fervor; if he could not pound you into the mattress, the least he could do was give you a mind-blowing orgasm.

And mind-blowing it was.

You practically screamed his name as your climax crashed upon you. Your pretty lips parted in a perfect ‘o’ shape that had Kazuha crumbling, his orgasm not too far behind.

“Ah—Y/n, you’re so…t-tight,” he mumbled, his words slurred together. “You feel so good, s-so perfect.”

You held onto his jaw and littered the area with kisses. Your post-orgasm brain still feeling like you’re on cloud nine. You whispered praises to him, how good he is to you, how pretty he looks like this…how good he fucked you.

Kazuha’s head tipped upwards with a whimper, “‘Cumming! ‘Cumming—Ah!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you—“

You felt his warm seed fill your pussy up. Your eyes rolled back at the sinful heat that radiated from your poor cunt, the sound of Kazuha’s ragged breaths almost like a symphony in your ears.

Once he recovered, he pulled out and laid next to you. His hands wandered down and rubbed at your thighs, “Still sore?”

You nuzzled closer to him, “If I’m not now, I think I will be tomorrow.”

I said headers. But who said they would be fancy? A writers gotta do what a writers gotta do

Yes In yandere kazuha we trust

KAZUHA is entranced by your very essence as a human being on this earth. Scratch that, how could someone as pure as yourself..always looking up at him with those eyes he swears he could see his future belong to a human? It simply doesn’t make sense to him so he digs down deeper to investigate.

Of course he can’t always keep tabs on you but it doesn’t mean that sometimes he doesn’t ditch his line of work just to see you. Completely absorbed into your entire being as to nothing else around matters. How could you be so oblivious to all those who wish to make you theirs around you? Those wretched pests..

Flashing that oh so lovely smile to everyone else like a spell. A spell that simply cannot be broken. Determined..no he just HAS to make you his..you are too good for this world darling, just let Kazuha shield you from the harm that this cruel world has to bring. Just keep your pretty little eyes on him and don’t disobey is all.

You are allowed to go about your daily life of course. Chores and everything must be done before he arrives home, nothing bad happens but all Kazuha wishes for is to just relinquish in your arms during that time so absolutely nothing must get in the way of that right?

He wishes to stop but he just can’t..Your smile, your sweet and yet so soothing voice. Even the sound of your breathing has become a must in order to continue on with his day..Yet, Kazuha can’t bring himself to stop. You belong to him alone. Cutting down everyone and anything in his path just so he can have you to himself..well aware of how selfish the whole plan is but don’t you want him too? He swears he can see it in your eyes dear so just accept your fate.

Like a predator and prey he keeps his eyes on you. Well aware the very thought of you drives him mad like a addictive drug..Eyes wide and full of longing and nothing but adoration reserved for you and only you. It makes him ponder on how you will view him after discovering what he has been doing to the people around you, will you look up at him with hatred? Fear? He is a genuinely curious guy! He needs to see all the type of faces you make or even noises. You stole his heart and not to mention his sanity..it’s only fair he returns it but tenfold right sweetheart?

hi! could i get a vanilla-scented letter with white & gold envelope, calligraphy and wax seal, 🌙, and with love kazuha?

congrats on the milestone!!

waa tyy!! enjoy your overprotective kazuha ♡ ᴛᴀɢʟɪꜱᴛ (open!) : @manager-of-the-pudding-bank, @iamdedinside

Greetings, dearest.

I write this letter to you, in the dim lamplight, while currently residing in the quarters of the Crux.

The breeze is warm tonight. Is it for you as well? Somehow, it reminds me of you. It's gentle nature, the comfort it brings... ah, should I go on? I would hate to bore you.

As for why I'm writing this... well, I just missed you, is all. While the Crux is full of life almost always, it makes me long for your tranquil presence, for the pleasant sensation of your hand on mine.

Haha, am I making you uncomfortable? I'd love to see your expression right now. Are you flustered? Smiling? Has something happened recently?

I want you to lean on my shoulder and tell me all of it. And I will listen to it all. If anyone has been anything less than hospitable to you, please, let me know. I'll... figure something out. For now, stay away from those who wish you any degree of ill, no matter how slight. You never know what they may try to pull, and I can't protect you when I'm miles away.

Living apart is what fate has deemed for us, it seems. As a wanderer, I suppose it was only natural for me to journey on, but at the very least, I had hoped it would be by your side...

Never the matter. I will see you again, I'll make sure of it.

As of now, we're currently docked at Guyun Stone Forest. While that's quite the voyage from Liyue harbor... do you think you'd be able to visit? We'll be resting there for the remainder of this week, so...

If it's possible, I'd like to invite you aboard. I just... I need to see you.

So can you stay with me... just for one night?

I apologize. You must think I'm acting quite childish now, correct? The usually composed Kazuha losing it over something... like... this...

But then again, your absence is no simple matter.

Then, I'll look forward to your answer tomorrow.

Love,

Kazuha.

(a/n) i baked cake and its burnt but it just adds that extra crisp so its okay

AUGUST.

Glimpses of the departed month go by as you reminisce by the sea.

ft. Kaedehara Kazuha x gn! reader.

cw/genre: fluff, romance.

I honestly don’t know how to feel about this piece… definitely not my best work, but I wrote it, so I’m posting it. I hope someone still likes it.

if you enjoy this, reblogs and comments help more than likes !

Blue.

Said alone, the word might have had a tendency for melancholy, cold, turbulence.

However, if anyone were to ask you right now, you’d deny every negative connotation the color might have ever been related to.

Because to you, blue was dusks by the sea; moments right after the last coppery rays had hidden behind the expanse of an ocean you could only wish to unveil all secrets of.

And perhaps, you liked this moment of day because the infinity of blue before you mirrored the feelings in your heart at ease.

Feelings of unbridled affection, boundless love.

For him.

Fair hair falls over his shoulders, like silk weaved out of stars, its tips illusory rose with the fading daylight. His eyes are closed against the marine breeze, flecks of moondust clinging to his lids, casting enchanting shadows over his cheeks. His shirt has been discarded, droplets sliding down his bare torso, as if he had bathed in a pool of starlight. A black leather cord rests against his tempting collarbones, a vibrant scarlet maple leaf charm dangling tantalizingly over his chest.

A dreamy sigh escapes your lips, mingling with the sounds of foamy waves lapping at the white sand.

Kazuha.

He was always nothing short of ethereal, but something about him in the dimming light of a late summer’s nightfall, felt inherently magical.

“I’m going to miss this, Kazuha.” You finally say, resting your chin on your boyfriend’s shoulder.

He gently leaves a kiss to your forehead, his hand finding yours over the towel you’re sitting on. Scars jut like jagged rocks against which waves break, in the same way lightning snuffed out a life dear to him all that time ago.

And yet, the smile on his lips is almost palpable when he says:

“We’ll be able to come back, my dove.” His thumb runs soothing circles over the back of your hand. “Before we realize, summer will greet us again.”

You chuckle. Kazuha had such a poetic way of approaching things; even when the sun went pitch black, he would forever remain a beacon of hope to you.

“I know, I know…” You clarify. “It’s just… I wish I had more free time to spend with you like this during the year…”

As much as autumn brought found memories and your beloved’s birthday, September always had a tendency to leave you yearning for the long days of summer.

Echoes of August replayed behind your eyelids every time you closed them, reminiscent of stolen instances held in the brief minutes in which the sky was dyed in shades of neither day or night.

Those eyes that held the suns of a million dawns focus on you. Starlight from constellations that will sleep soon seem to frame them, those long lashes fluttering in tune with your heart.

“I know, my angel…” Your lover utters, as he delicately tucks a strand of hair behind your ear. “I’d like to stay with you like this, for all eternity…” His stare of gentle embers takes you in.

His muse, his perfect love, his forever.

The samurai’s free hand reaches to cup your cheek, his touch, a dove’s first flight in its tenderness.

Beneath the darkening skies, you were the brightest star. Every lash, every pore and freckle, the everglow that fueled his verses.

“But we’ll always have the weekends,” He reassures, those fingers that penned the most romantic eulogies tracing your jawline, the column of your neck, your exposed collarbones.

Dilated pupils stare at his lips, images of kisses coated in ice cream and cocktails flashing through your dazed mind.

“And every summer after that.” The poet adds, noses mere millimeters away now, separated only by salt air and dying sunlight’s rust.

“Every summer.” You repeat.

Then, the magnetic force of both your desire-ridden lips reigns over, his kiss, an intoxicating collision.

Your hands lock behind Kazuha’s neck, pulling him closer. The droplets of sea water on him feel cool, flecks of stardust tattooing your skin in every place your bodies touch.

The wandering samurai’s lips are an expanding sunrise, and you, the tsunami that desperately reaches for his light-tinted heavens.

One of his hands sets on the soft sand, keeping him upright, while his scarred one tenderly cups your cheek. Your lean against him is soothing, healing, clear August skies, birdsong written in between retreating clouds.

Behind the undulating horizon, gold dyes silver.

Constellations begin to waltz far above, the lovers by the sea, their directing lyrics.

It’s a symphony about a season that will never die, its score inscribed in indelible blue ink in the heat of yours and Kazuha’s fervent kisses.

selfish ft. kazuha

cws: best friends, unrequited, pining, kazuha was humming city of stars btw.

masterlist

the moon hung low in the sky, casting a silverly glow on the quiet town. kazuha was sitting atop of the old schoolhouse's roof, a deserted place that you and kazuha self-proclaimed to be the best friends' hangout spot. well, how was it the place?

it was where you two met, wandering through the city, finding hidden spots that weren't crowded with people. as he was walking into the abandoned building, he heard someone humming. as he was humming in sync and trying to find the source of the humming, he accidentally bumped into you, and you apologized even though he was the one bumping into you. eventually, the both of you grew closer and spent countless hours, talking about anything, everything and nothing; you and kazuha just crying, laughing and smiling about inside jokes or everyday topics.

his hair billowed in the wind, leaning against the brick wall, lost in thought. he couldn't help but think about how he gained feelings for you. it had started with the way you could light up a room with your laughter, or the way you would hum to yourself when you thought no one was listening.

sometimes, he'd find himself humming the same tune, as he was now. it was a song called, "city of stars", a movie called, la la land. a movie that you two watches on repeat together on a terrible quality screen projector but too cheap to buy a better quality one.

he chuckled quietly to himself, occupying memories of the two of you spending time together, the laughter from watching the movies echoing in the halls and the music from the speaker playing softly as he waltzed with you. maybe, just maybe, you return his feelings too and you wouldn't go for that guy -- what's his name?

scarab? scab? scaramouche?

the guy who's the object of your affection at the moment. kazuha winced at the thought of it. he noticed you were being more clingy than usual, is that a sign or is it something he made up? he texted you randomly,

kkaedehara: wanna hang at the school house?

he tossed his phone carelessly to the side, burying his face into his hands. what is he even doing. his thoughts began to spiral until a familiar ding popped up.

lovelee: ok! omw!!

he smiled at your text message. maybe he isn't wrong. you are coming after all.

is it really wrong to be selfish? if you do like this "scaramouche"-guy, he'd spend every night with you. so what he's being selfish wanting you to stay by his side. it's better than being without you.

[rukkiya]

Can you do Ayato, Thoma, Kazuha, Kaeya, Scara, and Childe birthday hcs where they do a surprise party for their s/o !!! (Separate! ^*^) :3 ♡♡

a special day

(ayato x reader, thoma x reader, kazuha x reader, kaeya x reader, scaramoche x reader, childe x reader -separate-)

Ayato *ੈ✩‧₊˚

The head of the yashiro commission likes to take his time and plan things out thoroughly.

Ayato makes sure to invite your close friends since he knows they bring you great joy.

Sure, he’d much rather have you all to himself, but he can’t be greedy with you. You help so many others and he knows your friends would love to catch up with you so it’s only fair he throws a grand party and invited your close ones in favor of your hard work.

“Thoma why are you-“

“Shhh, Ayato’s orders.” Thoma chuckles, finishing the knot of the blindfold on the back of your head.

You had just arrived home from work only to be greeted with a strangely quiet house and Thoma waiting by the entrance.

“Ah, what is he up to now?” You giggle, shaking your head trying to think what you husband had schemed up this time.

“Watch your step y/n, we’re going out to the back.” Thoma whispers, hand holding onto yours as he leads you to the back of the estate.

“Why are you whispering?” You whisper yell, looking up the direction his voice came from.

“Thoma?” You call out feeling his hand let yours go as you come to a stop.

“May I remove the blindfold?” You laugh again, feeling nervous for what surprise they’ve come up with.

“Allow me to do so love.” Ayato’s voice comes from just beside you as his hands lay at your waist making you jump in surprise.

“Ayato dear, what’s going on? You ask, hands gently holding onto his forearms.

He only hums in response, hands moving from your waist and up to the back of your head before gently untying the ribbon.

Your smile widens when you finally open your eyes but you heart warms up as he steps to the side for you to see familiar faces beaming back at you just as happy to see you as you were to them.

“Happy birthday Y/n!” Thoma, Ayaka, Itto, Lumine, Paimon, Kazuha and Ayato all say in unison making your hands hover over your heart.

“I- What? Ayato love, did you invite them all?” You beam at your husband, making his eyes soften at your happy expression.

“Why of course, they’re your dear friends after all, besides they all wanted to see you today they’ve missed you!” Ayato gestures his hand behind him, and you take in the decorations and your dear friends you’ve missed so much.

Your heart was full, it’s been so busy you haven’t had any time to relax or catch-up with anyone, but this was everything you needed.

“Thank you love, I couldn’t ask for anything better!” Your arms wrap around his torso, and he chuckles, his own arms engulfing you tucking your head into his neck placing a fleeting kiss on top of your head.

“Awww come on, don’t hog them up all day now! Paimon has missed them just as much as everyone else!” The high-pitched voice comes from right beside you making you burst out into laughter at her attitude, only she would be brave enough to talk to Ayato like that.

“Come on compadre! I agree with flying Lavender melon here for once! We’ve all been busy and want to catch up with both of you! I say it's time to party!” Itto joins in, throwing his arms over Paimon and you bringing you in for a bear hug.

Kazuha, Ayaka, Thoma and Lumine all make their way up to the hug, joining in as joyous laughter rings in the air.

Ayato, the ever so busy clan leader felt relaxed for once in so long. His longtime friends and you, his love were all here celebrating a day that is dedicated to you. He doesn’t like arranging parties, but your parties are the only exception for him.

Thoma *ੈ✩‧₊˚

Ayato gives him the day off to be with you! He knew thoma wouldn’t ask himself, but he wouldn’t let him work on your birthday.

You however did still have to work, unfortunately. But Thoma still wants to make your day special!

“Y/n, dear wake up!” He whispers, peppering kisses all over your face making you laugh.

"It's too early." you rasp, morning voice as scratchy as ever but it sounded more like music to thomas ears.

"I didn't want to wake you, as much as I would love to keep you home and spend today with you, you have work. Now get up and I'll make you breakfast sleepyhead." He smiles when you open your eyes, small smile playing on your lips.

"Waffles?" You ask and he nods his head giving you another small kiss on the nose.

"Anything you want!" He pushes the stray hair off your face and pushes himself off getting ready to make you food.

He happily does so, he loves treating you to meals, making them himself. Seeing the happy expression you make with the food he feeds you is all he needs to be happy himself.

Though you do have work today, when you get home, he makes sure you wind down and relax with him the rest of the night.

A small party for you and you only. He just wants to service you today, you’ve been so busy.

He’s busy making your dinner when you peek your head in the kitchen.

Never have you had someone do this much for you on your birthday, he always made sure that he gave you above and beyond and you truly couldn't ask for someone more caring than him.

"Thoma, let me help you." Your arms wrap around his torso, head leaning on his back.

"Love I'm almost done! Today you relax, ok?” He smiles as you nuzzle his back, the warmth emitting off him was inviting, calm.

"Thank you for everything. You didn't have to do all this for me, but you did. I'm sorry I couldn't take today off but even though i did work this is the most pampered ive been." you smile and he turns around, arms finding purchase on your shoulders as he pulls you in.

“You deserve no less than this. From now on y/n I promise I’ll always show you just how special you are to me.” His hand brings yours over his heart and he smiles at you.

“Happy birthday love, thank you for choosing me to be the lucky man who gets to spend it with you for today and the rest of our lives.” He whispers, leaning down and kissing your forehead as he hands come up and gently squeeze your cheeks.

Kazuha *ੈ✩‧₊˚

Isn’t used to keeping others so close for such a long time. The last time he had a close friend he was taken away from him in such a way that made Kazuha scared to let himself grow close to anyone ever again.

That was until he met you.

The wind in fact did not inform him of you arrival. You showed up in his life when he needed someone the most. When the hard part was over you still stood by him and he knew it was different this time. You are the calm to his storm.

When he finally decided against it all, to let you in and keep you close he swore to treasure you and protect you forever and always. Just as you’ve done with him.

Celebrating a day dedicated to you was something he wants to make special, so he asks Beidou for some help set up a small special dinner for you!

“Y/n, come check this out!” Beidou calls from the bottom deck as made your way down the latter of the top deck.

“On my way.” You call out hopping off the last few steps to see her beaming at you arms wide open.

Seeing your Captain in such a joyous mood made you slightly suspicious as it wasn’t even time for her to start drinking.

“What’s going on captain?” You ask, suspicion lacing your tone making her laugh more as she tosses her arm around your shoulder and makes her way to the cafeteria down on the lower deck.

“Come with me, lets take a break. I told you to take today off but you still insist on working huh?” She tuts, makes her way down the stairs with you, different aromas of familiar scents hit you.

“Come on captain, I need to help out still, you know I can’t sit still all day. But it smells nice down here, what’re you guys making?” You ask, inhaling the smell that was coming from the kitchen.

“Go in there for me yeah? I’m going to grab something real quick!” She pats your shoulder and quickly scurries into the kitchen leaving you in front of the doors.

You push it open and see one table illuminated with a single candle light. You step in and closer to the table where dishes from your hometown lay on display.

A gentle breeze sends a chill down your spine in the usual warm dining room making you turn around knowing exactly who was behind you.

“Darling, thank you for coming down here.” Kazuhas ever so soft smile never fails to make you melt.

“Kazuha what’s- did you make this?” You look back at him, excitement gleaming in your eyes making him laugh at you excitement.

“Only your favorites of course! I would’ve liked to take you back to your hometown for your birthday but were quite far from there as of now so I thought this will do, I hope you don’t mind this. I wanted to get you more but-“

“Kazuha love,” you step up to him and his arms immediately find their way onto your waist. “This is perfect ok? No need to apologize. You made my favorites! You’re here! This is so cute kazuha you even got beuido in on this to help, a dinner with you sounds like a lovley birthday gift if you ask me.” You assure him, hands making purchase on both sides of his face as he only closes his eyes.

“Thank you for spending today with me.” He whispers, nuzzling his face onto your hands. You only pull him down, placing a quick kiss on his lips before pulling away.

“You’re thanking me on my birthday? That’s a first.” You giggle and he laughs, giving you one more small kiss before pulling away and pulling a chair out for you to sit. A birthday to remember and more to come, he swears he will always keep you with him no matter what.

Kaeya *ੈ✩‧₊˚

Much like Ayato, Kaeya would much rather keep you all to himself for your special day but he knows just how many other people would love to celebrate today with you as-well.

This man would be so suspicious though, he made sure to tell everyone invited to not even give you the slightest clue what he was planning no matter how many times you asked

You seriously thought you had made him upset. He was being distant and was out late for the past month. Every time you tried bringing it up to him he’d just laugh and brush it off assuring you it was nothing.

"I think he might be upset, I don’t understand why though? I’ve asked him multiple times but he doesn’t give me a proper answer.” You sign, hand playing with the delicate teacup you were sipping from.

Lisa hums, pretending to go along with you though she knows exactly what’s going on too. She won’t admit it but she find this amusing, dear y/n is just so confused but Kaeya is just planning something so cute for them! She can’t wait to see your reaction!

“Cutie I’m sorry I don’t know why either. Maybe try asking again? I’m sure it’s nothing major though, he just might be under lots of stress.” She sends you a reassuring smile and tries her best to not giggle when you perk up. Gosh Kaeya is right you’re so cute she can’t help but want to tease you too.

"Y/n cutie, don't worry too much alright just trust him. Besides today is your birthday, relax and enjoy yourself alright, I wanted to have lunch with you. That sneaky captain would keep you all to himself if I didn’t call the shots first. He’s so greedy with you!" She clicks her tongue, making you laugh.

"You're right, thank you I'm sure it's nothing! Also, it's been a while since I've caught up with you today has been lovely so far!" you admit, taking a sip of the tea that has grown somewhat colder now.

After a bit more catching up you had decided to call it a day and head home, hopefully to catch Kaeya and spend time with him for the rest of the night.

You open the door to your shared house but your welcomed with pitch black silence.

“He’s not here.” You feel your shoulders slump a bit. “Another late night I guess, maybe he just forgot as-well like Lisa said, he has a lot in his plate.” You sigh, trying to convince yourself it’s ok, to not get sad again because you know he has responsibilities.

As you were about to step inside and close the door, a familiar shoe stops you from doing so.

“What the! Kaeya? What’re you-“

“Sweetheart,” he pants out of breath, looking behind you into the still pitch black living room. “You’re home early.” He moves some stray pieces of his hair that fell onto his face from when he ran and you look at him confused.

“Early? Uh I had nothing else to do today besides work, I wanted to see if I could spend time with you before you went to bed.” You admit and his smile widens as he reaches for your hands.

“Honestly I thought you were going to be home late again.” You laugh, looking away from his soft gaze.

“No sorry about that but not today sweetie you see today is special!” He stands up taller, bringing his hand under your chin to look back at him.

“Turn around and turn the lights on for me sweetheart.” He laughs, spinning you around and pushing you into the dark living room, standing right behind you.

“What’s going..”

His hand guides yours to the light switch by the door, once the small switch goes up familiar faces are illuminated all around your living room making you jump back into Kaeya who only laughs louder.

“SUPRISE!!” Bennet, Razor, Lisa, Jean, Barbra and an unamused Diluc jump out from different places. you blink a few times before a wide smile makes its way onto your lips.

“What? Kaeya did you let them in before I got here?” You laugh, turning to him to see a look of relief on his face.

“My love, you got here before I did, I’m surprised you didn’t see them before I got here.” He laughs, fingers intertwining with yours.

“I didn’t even hear them, let alone see them. It was too dark in here. I was wondering where you were, you haven’t been home recently so I got worried.” You admit seeing a small pout form on his lips.

“Sorry about that sweetheart, I didn’t mean to worry you. I’ve been planning this and I didn’t want you to find out. It took a while to plan just how to execute this, you ended up arriving earlier than suspected I was supposed to pick you up after your lunch with Lisa but I got caught up with something along the way. I’m sorry.” He explains, fingers playing the with sleeve of your shirt.

“All along this is what you were doing?” You whisper to him, feeling your heart rate pick up. Oh my he’s so freaking cute, you can’t help but smile at him.

“Is it cheesy?” He looks away, nervous laughter bubbling from his throat.

You don’t even reply, insead you pull him down by his shirt and wrap your arms around his neck, placing a small kiss there before whispering “This is great love, thank you for being here today and inviting everyone!” You pull back and see him grinning at you, eye closed as he pulls you closer to him, relived that this all went (somewhat) as planned.

“Happy Birthday Y/n.” His hums and looks back at everyone behind you before bursting out into a fit of laughter before pointing behind you

You turn around and hear the others start to giggle at the angry red headed man who wore a small patty hat with a scowl on his face.

“You better enjoy this y/n it took tons of convincing to make him wear that.” Jean laughs as she approaches you before giving you a hug.

"Thank you all! I wouldn't want to spend today with anyone else but you guys!" you look around smiling at them, feeling grateful for them all being here with you.

The worries you felt earlier was long gone. Kaeya gives your hand another small squeeze and smiles at you.

"Sorry I worried you but enjoy yourself tonight yah? You deserve it." He smiles bringing your hand up to place a gentle kiss. He felt so bad for letting you think he was angry but seeing the smile on your face pays off for all the planning he’s done.

Scaramouche ੈ✩‧₊˚

He couldn’t sleep. He was so nervous about planning today out and what exactly to do.

How do you even throw a party!?

Nahida helps him plan everything out. He invites her, lumine and Paimon (much to his dismay) to spend today with you because he’s unsure if his heart can handle being alone with you on such an important day.

Someone please help him he can’t handle the feelings you give him it’s actually so unfair. He just wants to make you feel special on your day.

“Scaramoche did you do this?” You ask, eyes wide and mouth slightly agape at the small cute decorations that littered the small private room in the restaurant.

“Tsk, you ask such absurd questions you know that?” He scowls, clicking his tongue and looking away. Hand letting your go to cross his arms over his chest.

“He worked quite hard on this and even invited me along to help! Lumine and Paimon were just as surprised when he invited them as we-“

“Are you going to tell them everything I did?” Scara snaps his head down, glaring at the dendro archon who only giggles.

“When Scaramoche invited us to celebrate with you of course we couldn’t say no!” Paimon smiles as Lumine hands you a bouquet of your favorite flowers.

“Aww you guys, thank you!” You smile at them both quickly hugging them before taking the flowers in your hold.

“In all honesty we didn’t believe that you two were dating. We thought he was lying but Nahida told us he wasn’t. We took her word over his.” Paimon whispers, suspiciously side eyeing Scaramoche who impatiently tapped his foot making Lumine mask a ‘cough’ to contain her laughter.

You look over at your grumpy boyfriend and link your arm with his, to which he only pulls you closer pulling you along with him to show you the small decorations he picked.

“Scaramoche they’re just teasing. I for one think this is amazing. It’s so cute! You took your time to plan this out and throw a party just for me? Are you aware of how much that means to me? I don’t even celebrate my own birthday.” You stop him from moving and he keeps his eyes looking at everything else but you.

“Scara,” You call out his name, the nick name he only allows you to call him. “Thank you, I mean it.” You reach for his hand, grabbing it before placing it onto your chest right over your heart making him look at you with wide eyes.

“What’re you-“

“Do you feel how fast my heart is beating? I dont know if my expression is enough to tell you how appreciative I am of this, my heart is beating fast because I’m happy.” You admit, smiling at him making his glare soften, a small smile forming at the curve of his lips now.

“You brat, how dare you make me this nervous when all I did was throw you a party. Besides you needed this, you’ve been overworking yourself. I think it’s about time you take a break.” A small smirk played on his lips as he rolls his eyes at you.

“Uhhh Paimon doenst mean to inturrupt but I’m hungry and this food looks amazing! If you don’t hurry up Paimon will eat without you!” Paimon calls out from behind you and Scara’s once relaxed features turn into one of annoyance again making you laugh just as hard as you had earlier.

He angrily makes his way to the table before pulling out a chair for you to sit on before he sits down himself. As everyone starts to catch up with each other it hits him just how much fun he’s actually having (despite the look on his face). Seeing you relax with everyone made him content, he can see the appeal as to why people celebrate such occasions now, especially if he’s celebrating it for you.

Childe *ੈ✩‧₊˚

He knows you don’t really care for today, that you don’t care for celebrating it in general but he works so he can’t treat you things you like!

Gift giving is one his love languages ok he can’t help it!

Like Thoma and Kazuha he wants to spend today with you and you alone, makes it more special that way!

He loves spoiling you, even if you feel bad he assures you that you’re the most deserving of what he gives you and that you deserve it for your hard work!

Though he loves spoiling you with gifts, he decides to take you somewhere you’ve been wanting to visit for a very long time instead!

Sucker #2 but for a different reason, takes today off to spend with you. He made sure you asked for today off in advance because he wanted to take a small trip with you.

“Ah Childe!” You yelp, hands reaching for his forearms to catch yourself from slipping as his hands remain over your eyes.

If you hd to guess where this mischievous bastard was taking you, you’d have zero chance because he really didn’t give you the slightest hint as to why you’ve been walking for so long, or why he had to carry you some parts of the way but you were excited nonetheless!

“Sorry! My bad, I didn’t mean for you to almost trip.” One of his hands leaves the front of your eyes to steady you, you make sure to keep your eyes shut.

“Annnnddddd,” he draws out his sentence as he comes to a stop, his hands gently holding your shoulders to stop your from taking another step. “You can open them in, three, two, one!” He whispers from besides you, removing his hands and throwing his arms up, wide smile on his face.

It takes your eyes a few seconds to adjust but you feel your breath get caught in your throat at the beautiful sight before you.

Though you’ve lived in Liyue your whole life there were still many places you’d yet to see yourself. You’ve always helped your family run the small family market in the haurbor and never had time to go out and explore like you’d always dreamed of.

When you met Childe he told you about all the places he’s been to, practically around the whole entirety of Tevayt probably. You would always listen intently about the beautiful sights he would describe in great detail. You would close your eyes and try to envision them yourself as he did so.

Guyun Stone Forest was one of the places you’d dream of visiting, going to the highest peak and looking out at what beautiful sights it had to offer and when Chile heard you talking to your mother about wanting to go there last year, well he started planning the trip there for your birthday since!

“Wow.” You whisper quietly, breathing out, feeling all the air leave your lungs before you deeply inhale again.

The peak where both Childe and you stood was decorated with lanterns and lights around a small table with a basket sitting in the middle. You never thought you’d see it so soon. It was more beautiful than you’d imagined.

It was just around six in the afternoon, the sky was golden with shades of pink which only illuminated the stone peaks even more.

“I know it’s not anything too crazy.” Childe scratches the back of his neck, you haven’t said anything since you’ve opened your eyes so he was growing worried. (he didn’t hear you whisper please say it louder next time he was getting scared lmao)

“I remember you were talking to your mother about thi-“

The bag in his hands hit the floor as you jump into his arms. Your arms wrap around his waist as his protectively go wrap themselves around your shoulders.

“Woah hey! Calm down there!” Childe chuckles, resting his head ontop of yours as he feels you squeeze him a bit tighter.

“This is more than enough Childe! This is,” you take a deep breath in again, pulling back and looking around. “This is better than any gift I could’ve gotten. Thank you for bringing me here. For listening and planning this out when you could’ve easily done something else. You didn’t even need to do this but the fact that you did makes me very happy.” You whipser, looking up at him seeing his cheeks dusted with pink.

“I know I’m a great listener! Besides, who else would I do this for? You’ve been wanting to come here for a while, figured today would be the perfect time to do so.” He whispers back, leaning forward until his forehead met yours.

“Happy birthday y/n.” He leans in to kiss your forehead and pulls back. Bending over to pick up the bag of gifts he dropped earlier before placing his hand on the small of your back, walking you to the small table that overlooks the sight you’ve dreamed of. Though the sight wasn’t nothing compared to being as beautiful as the one who he was looking at right now, no nothing will be as beautiful as you.
