The first time Klee met Albedo she thought he was a prince. Being a small young imaginative girl she made the only reasonable action and asked him to marry her.

He was super embarrassed but also extremely flattered. He had never been approached like this before and found its endearing because he could tell she was asking earnestly.

He let her down easy with 'Why don't I be your big brother instead?' Knowing that would still make her a princess she agreed. Thus their close relationship began.

At the beginning of their relationship Albedo would draw little comics of Klee as a princess going on various adventures. And Klee would draw her own comics adding Albedo into the story. And they'd go back and forth like that for a while.

Thorough the story Princess Klee slowly turned into the Knight Klee and then eventually the Spark Knight. Klee liked the name so much she ask to make it her official title.

Extra thought: Klee also asked for Kaeya's hand. Only he'd agreed, but told her she'd have to wait untill she's older before they could offically marry. Lisa probably laughed asking Klee to be her bride too. And Jean would just stand there mortified by the situation.

Professor Zhongli and abandoned narwhale merman Childe meeting for the first time

I have too many AU ideas haha

[tengufeather]

Maybe it's Problematic, but there's something absurdly hot to me about internalised homophobia. The denial followed by the release. The ecstasy. More closet queers should face their complicated hangups and embrace their feelings.

THEY KEEP ON ASKING ME, “WHO IS HE?”

Chat won’t stop asking, despite how many times you try to steer the topic at hand to something else. Their opinions on your current Animal Crossing build? Ignored. If you should crochet a cardigan or bucket hat for your cat? Little to no responses. Lavender latte or milk tea for Drink of the Day? Lavender latte wins, but Chat immediately goes back to your hidden boyfriend.

This is what you get for forgetting to mute your mic. You had a whole phone call about dinner before realizing your mistake, and now everyone knows that wholesome, cozy Twitch streamer lightberry swears like a sailor when discussing pork katsu and calls a special someone “baby.” It’s been clipped already, you just know. At least you didn’t put him on speaker.

“‘100 subs if you tell us his name?’” you read. You'll indulge them because indulging Chat makes for good content. “I’ll tell you literally anything else.”

If you told them his name, you would end up trending on Twitter.

“‘Is he also a gamer?’ Yeah. Mostly League, Genshin, Apex. He’s been trying to get into Valorant. Now, 100 subs, please.”

Felix, otherwise known as LixInABox, is a gamer and streaming personality who has nearly a million subs on Twitch. He has a partner, an elusive figure exclusively referred to as “My Partner.” There are rumors that My Partner (MP) doesn’t actually exist and that they’re a cover for his singleness.

“‘20 subs if you tell us his rank?’ Sure. He's pretty high in everything. I can’t ever duo with him, except in Genshin.”

When he started streaming, he was primarily known for his League of Legends skills. Low Masters on a good day, Diamond 3 on the bad ones.

“‘Show us a picture.’ You know what, I’ll do that for free.”

Chat is not happy when you pull up a photo of Marshal from Animal Crossing. To be fair, he does resemble Felix a little.

While they continue to pester you about his identity, you continue terraforming your butterfly-shaped lake. When Marshal walks by with a sandwich, you make sure to point him out.

“There’s my boyfriend,” you say as you glance at the chat, which is scrolling by so quickly, your eyes can barely keep up.

IT’S LIX

MP MP MP MP

LIXBERRY

You’ve got a ship name already? How did they figure it out? Did Felix reach a million subs? He joked that he would reveal who MP was once he hit a million, and you sort of gave him the green light, but surely he would tell you beforehand? You sit motionless at your chair and try to come up with a solution that doesn’t involve straight up lying.

LIXBERRY LIXBERRY

MP IS REAL

HE’S LIVE

It doesn’t matter what you do. By doing nothing, you’ve confirmed it, so you go back to how it all started—you call Felix, live on stream. You leave your mic unmuted intentionally this time.

“Hey, what did you do?” are your first words. You have his stream up as well, so you see the blush on his face. “You’re live on mine, by the way.”

“I didn’t do anything! They figured it out! I mentioned that I was gonna have pork katsu for dinner, and like five minutes later, they connected it back to you. What did you do?”

“I forgot to mute during our call,” you admit. “And I also gave them hints in exchange for subs, but I didn’t think they were anything obvious.”

He looks at his chat and laughs. “You basically told them what I’m famous for. And a picture of Marshal? No wonder.”

“My bad. See you at dinner?”

He smiles, and you can’t help but do the same. “Yeah. Love you.”

“Love you, too, baby.”

Chat explodes. You and Felix will never live this down, but it feels better than you thought. And you really don’t want to admit it, but lixberry is really, really cute.

HE’S THE ONE THAT’S LIVING IN MY SYSTEM, BABY.

Batboys x reader who is a game/singer streamer

So I'm assuming that s/o is a singer + game streamer from what I can see soooo yeah! I think I went to focus on the gamer part than singer though. Also I could only do this for Dick, Jason and Tim because 😭 sorry ;-;;;

TT o TT

Batboys with a game (mostly) + singer s/o

Dick Grayson

Don’t even get me started on how hype Dick’s gonna be. You game??? And stream?????? Epic-

Dick has played video games with Tim before it’s just that he sucks at playing the modern one sometimes-, so he probably wants to do co-ops with you and maybe join your streams and play with you.

He sucks ASS though in Among Us because he’s bad at lying when he’s imposter and too trusting when he’s just a crew mate. He’s so funny though when you record him while playing with you and your other streamer friends.

“Awww, look at me and s/o walking together and building snowmen! We are so—”

*Kills him* “…” “s/O WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME ARE YOU TRYING TO BREAK UP WITH MEEEEEEE????”*loud sobbing*

Obviously, no, it’s just what you had to do as an imposter and you have to apologise to your sulky boyfriend.

Fun fact: bought your two of those matching cat ears headphones and he’s so sappy, dear god- he loves those earphones.

Also your voice?? IT’S SO GOOD??? You made your own songs and that’s so cool!! No wonder your fanbase is so big, damn-

And he’s obviously your biggest fan! <

Jason Todd

He’s trying, he really is. Because the last thing he played before he died were Game Boys and then he awoken to Wii Games, Nintendo Switches and whatever the fuck those online games are.

Those sus game ads he clicked randomly made him question what happened when he was still dead-

Jason thinks it’s pretty cool you stream gaming content and all, although don’t ask him to play any RPG with you because he’ll rage quit. He will go insane.

Jason keeps insisting on wanting to join your streams in Among Us but like come on- WE ALL KNOW HE’S GONNA START RAGING MORE-

When he gets killed, he calls the imposter a “Joker” 💀 Sometimes you have to calm him down and tell him it’s their role as imposter to do this. Also, when he gets imposter, he’ll kill everyone except you. Like he’s your bodyguard or something and everyone’s out to get you. You don’t even need to be imposter. If you did kill him before, he’ll kill you back though-

He’s okay if you let him play Minecraft together though, he finds it peaceful (on creative mode).

Listens to your songs on repeat while he’s repairing vehicles or hear it live on your stream when he’s reading. Wholesome supportive boyfriend stuff. <3

Tim Drake

Immediately follows all forms of social media you have, and give subs to every time you go live and stream. No hesitation.

He thinks it’s cool you stream games and all, something he wished to do but just doesn’t have much time to do so, and that he has no idea how to start up a fanbase anyways so-

Tim would join your streams every once in a while to play with you and he doesn’t mind any sort of games, he’s pretty good with the controller… well, maybe RPG. Because if he’s doing a multiplayer game like with Genshin needing to join servers and all, most of the time, people wouldn’t listen to his plans and end up dying and then he goes berserk. Only you listen s/o… wHY?? WHY DOES NOBODY LISTEN TO HIS STRATS????

Also, cat ears headphones?? He has one and he looks so cute in it and would ask if you want one too- he only wears those headphones in private though, or in front of you.

Anyways, Tim loves your singing too! Would listen it live or hear it on Spotify if it’s available. If you sing covers, it’s gonna ruin him. He can’t listen to the original track anymore because it’s just not the same-

Overall, gamer boyfriend you got here. <3

[shinobusupremecy]

How would the genshin characters hug you/react to you hugging them

A/N: Just wholesome hcs, hope you guys enjoy! I also realize how many of the characters I forgot on my last post. 😭

Characters included : Eula, Jean, Beidou, Ganyu, Shenhe, Yelan, Itto, Kazuha, Raiden Ei and Yae Miko

Eula

❄️- I cannot see Eula being very used to hugs so when you do hug her I can see her freeze up a little

❄️- ”Oh Y/N…” Awkwardly hugs back. Her hugs are pretty stiff

❄️- Usually when you hug her you wrap your arms around all of Eula so that she can’t even move her own arms, when she is able to wriggle one arm free she will pat your head

Jean

🛡️- Jean loves your hugs and appreciattes it alot when you come into her office and just hug her

🛡️- Sure it may be distracting but it is the distraction she needs

🛡️- You usally hug her from the side or even sit in her lap and hug her from the side.

🛡️- Jean always has a spare hand to pat your arm that wrapped around her while she wrote her paperworks

🛡️- When she is done however that is when she can hug you in a less one sided way.

”Y/N, you have no idea how happy I am to see you today”

Ayaka

❄️- Ayaka can just be doing her work and you will come up from behind to hug her, wrapping your arms around her waist and putting your chin on her shoulder while she writes paperwork

❄️- ”Oh hello Y/N, I didn’t hear you coming” Ayaka says and smiles, lightly petting your head. After she is done signing paperwork though she will give you a proper hug.

❄️- Her hugs are very soft and she usually sets her head at the crook of your neck, she breathes in very content and happy that you are here with her

Beidou

⚓️- ”Oh? You want a hug? Then a hug is what you’ll get!” Those are the last words you will hear before Beidou crushes your spine in a bearhug.

⚓️- Beidou’s hugs are like said, bearhugs. With two big arms wrapping around you and then squeeze!

⚓️- But if Beidou does not feel as playful and same with you she will just wrap her arms around you and hug you normally

⚓️- Her hugs are really sweet and warm. She loves stroking her hand on your back. Preferbly if you can sit on her lap and she can do the same.

Ganyu

❄️- Ganyu would never except your hugs, everytime you do she is never really prepared leading to a yelp and then hug

❄️- If she holds something she accidently drops it and then hugs you. Even if that has lead to accident sometimes, atleast she values your hugs more than the item she is holding-

❄️- Ganyu loves your hugs and always hug back softly. You can feel the heat from Ganyu’s cheek on your shoulder or the crook of your neck

❄️- She doesn’t mind hugging and can stay there forever, her hugs usually lasts very long but you never dare to be the one to let go first.

Shenhe

❄️ - She would not know what a hug is either. INCREDIBLY stiff. You hug her and it is like hugging a rock.

❄️- She will just stand there all quiet.

❄️- ”I am hugging you, this is a hug. Usually you do this when you love or appreciatte someone or this is one way to greet your close friends” You patiently explained.

❄️- ”Oh okay” Shenhe then wrapped her arms around you and like you did she squeezed…hard.

❄️- ”okay maybe not that hard!-” You wheezed out and Shenhe stopped hugging before hugging you a little softer…this time too loose

❄️- ”Is this better?” You let out a hum of reassurance and you could feel Shenhe nodding with the way her head moved, rested on your shoulder.

❄️- She got used to hugging more later on, her hugs were light and she never squeezed. Her cold hands sent shivers down your spine at times but you didn’t mind <3

Yelan

🎲- After a long day of work there was nothing more Yelan wanted to do than come home and hug you.

🎲- as soon as she opened the door you were there to greet her with a hug

🎲- If Yelan held something she would drop it (or gently put it down if it’s delicate) and hug you back

🎲- You could tell she was waiting for that hug all day when she just melted in your arms. Her body relaxing almost like you had to hold her from falling onto the ground

🎲- She is usually the first one to break away from the hug, she did so but that was just so you two can cuddle in bed later.

🎲- ”Okay let’s not let the cold air in” Yelan chuckled, she stepped into her home more and closed the door behind her.

🎲-”Let’s just cuddle in bed, I am exhausted” Yelan sighed, her shoulders drooping. You giggled at Yelan before taking her hand and leading her into the bedroom where you two fell asleep in eachothers arms

Itto

👹- Bearhugger number 2!

👹 He is tall and has strong arms, usually when he hugs you you get swept from your feet as well, your feets dangling, your arms being unable to hug Itto back while he swings back and forth like you are his plush

👹- Shinobu sometimes have to remind Itto to be careful hugging you, so that he does not break your spine <3

Kazuha

🍁- Sweet boy loves your hugs even if he himself does not initiate on them first.

🍁- Kazuha is the type to recite poems while hugging you, whispering it into your ear to soothe you.

🍁- You usually hug him whenever you feel like it while he mostly does it when he hasn’t seen you for a long time.

🍁- He always complements you while hugging you, he is just so sweet <3

🍁- ”Your eyes are beautiful like maple leaves that depart from the tree”

Raiden Shogun/Ei

🍡- Ei was not used at all to these hugs

🍡- When you hugged her for the first time she tensed up.

🍡- ”Y/N, what are you doing?” She asked while your arms were wrapped around her.

🍡- ”A hug” you replied smiling at her

🍡- ”I see…” Ei would then awkwardly try to hug you back even if her hug was extremely loose, you could barely feel her hands on your skin.

🍡- Yae would be very anused to see the oh so strong electro archon loose her composure over some hug.

🍡- Ei does get more comfortable with the hugs though and when she has resched that point her hugs are quite nice! Very comforting.

Yae Miko

🦊- She is not a hugger type of person but will of course accept your hugs because she loves you

🦊- You usually give her side hugs or back hugs when she is reading a book, if the book looks interesting enough or Tae reccomends it while you are hugging her, you will read with her.

🦊- You can see her sitting on the stairs of Narukami Shrine reading a novel. You sit beside her and give her a side hug.

🦊- ”Greetings to you too Y/N” Yae replied sparing you a glance.

🦊- ”Hello!” You greeted her back. Yae let out a amused sigh when she saw that you were not gonna let go of her anytime soon.

🦊- When Yae hugs you however her hugs are a bit more loose, you can always feel her fingers trail lightly over your back, especially when your back is bare.

🦊- She always rest her hand on your shoulder when she hugs you, she won’t admit it but she always feel a sense of peace hugging you.

[edgeray]

Request Page ≧◉◡◉≦

Decided that I will be accepting requests over the summer.

I will only accept Arlecchino requests, because I cannot write for any other character. Bear with me, as this is the first time I've done this. If the amount of rules I have scare you, sorry.

TLDR;

More specifics under the cut if you have questions, but also feel free to send me an ask if you have more questions.

I write Arlecchino x Reader's (platonic and romantic) and I write wlw Arlecchino ships. No nsfw, dark, sensitive, specific, taboo, or lore heavy requests for x Reader's and ships. Borderline nsfw is okay, as long as I can imply it. I do not write amab characters, meaning no amab readers and no straight ships. No Arlefuri. Reader will default to gender-neutral, unless requested afab. I love writing AUs, so please send me some! I'm open to ANY AU (as long as it pertains to my rules). I can write fluff, angst, crack, etc. You can request for a continuation of my other works as well, which you can find in my masterlist. Lastly, if you plan on requesting more than once as anon, give yourself a name/emoji :)

Here are some rules for requesting :

rules that aren't relating to Reader apply to ships requests as well (ie. still no nsfw).

no nsfw requests. there are enough nsfw blogs out there that will love to take your requests ^0^, but there are few blogs dedicated to arlecchino for sfw, which is what I want to establish this blog for. (i recommend for nsfw x Reader's @/megistusdiary, @/knavesflame, @/servalisms for nsfw ;]). I can write suggestive, but I will not write actual sex.

no typical 'dead dove do not eat' topics (ie. cannibalism, torture, etc.)

no taboo topics (ie. any form of incest).

no *super* sensitive topics (ie. SH, SA, etc).

no specific reader requests (like reader with a specific illness/disease/condition, or reader that has a particular racial/ ethnical/ cultural/ religious background, etc). I know this is vague, so if you do request something along the lines, I will reply back whether or not I will be doing it. I do not want to exclude people in my writing.

no amab reader. unless specified afab reader by request, reader will be gender neutral

no mlw ships. i cannot write male characters, hence why the no amab reader either.

no lore heavy requests (sorry, I don't have much genshin knowledge ;()

General Information :

Asks will generally be the same length range of my blurbs (0.5k-2.5k words depending on how much I like the idea and can write about it

I'm willing to write for all sorts of scenario! Wholesome, angsty, crack, etc.

I can't say how fast each request will take because I've never done this before, but I'll try to be swift! It may vary because of my summer schedule.

Please send me AU requests (ie. modern au, soulmate au, space au, monster au, go crazy)! I think they're the coolest thing ever, and I don't have to rely on Genshin lore, which I have limited knowledge of.

Feel free to request a continuation on my works too (though it will take longer to do than usual asks)

I can write for Arle ships! (but only wlw ships, because I cannot see Arlecchino with a man, EVER). However, unfortunately, I will not write for Arlecchino and Furina (it is not my cup of tea, and there's plenty of Arlefuri content out there). My favorites are Arlevie and Arlebina, but I'll consider other requests.

[redzeverin]

Trust people. Let them help you, and help them in return.

.

I didn't know I needed a Wriothesley and Wanderer interaction until this story! 😭👍

This scene was based on a scene in @sunjinjo story "A Cage of Your Own Making"! Please go check it out and cry with us! It's bittersweet and wholesome and I really want to spread the emotions to you guys!! There's some context here in this comic that I've left out so you'll have to check the story yourself if you want to know about the injured guy and the flower AND Wanderer with Furina and Nahida! It's got 5 chapters at the time I'm posting this, and they're all worth the read!!

Also belated birthday, Wanderer! It wasn't until recently that I've realized that I love reading stories about found family Wanderer and Nahida. And by then, Wanderer has officially made his way to my favorite sons group (he's with Razor now). I look forward to seeing him again in future Genshin content!!

Two Can Play a Game

Fandom / Pairing: Jujutsu Kaisen / Geto Suguru x f!reader

Rating: NSFW/Explicit - MINORS DO NOT INTERACT

Content Warning: suggestive, Gojo being a menace, roommate shenanigans, wingman!Gojo, violent games, friendly banter, geto’s huge fingers…

Chapter Summary: You are stuck with your awful roommates on their Saturday games night. You were ready to be bored to death this weekend but what you were not expecting was being stranded on Geto’s lap by the end of the night.

Author's Notes: gamer!Suguru rotting my mind. Let me know if I should make a part 2! If you enjoy it, feel free to like, reblog or comment; I’d love to know your thoughts. Thank you for reading! 

-Nanami's Munchkin

Part 2

Being roommates with Satoru and Suguru was nothing short of an adventure. It always felt like you were taking care of two cats who actually did pay rent but were a pain in the ass to handle. 

The tamed one was Suguru, the black cat with black cat energy. Satoru, on the other hand, was worse than the orange cats, a menace, making your life miserable. However, you wouldn't have it any other way – a cat person always loves the little devils immensely, despite the hell they raise.

Saturday nights were game nights for the boys. Usually, Shoko, the fourth person in the house, your white dove of peace between the guys and you was out for the weekend. The dove in question, however, had betrayed you to flock in someone else’s nest so you were left alone with the men-children screaming over a stupid game.

It's true that you don't know what you've got till you don't have it anymore. You think back on all the times you open a bottle of wine, enjoy a smoke on the balcony, and share the gossip of the week with Shoko. 

You weighed your options – scrolling through reels while silently drinking your wine while pretending you don't exist would be a lot easier than spending the night witnessing your two roommates behave like toddlers. 

So you did just that, flopped down on the armchair scrolling through feed, sipping your wine quietly. You'd downed more than half the bottle before boredom hit, causing you to look up at the TV to see what Suguru and Satoru were up to. 

The amount of fun they were having playing a violent and gory game made you cringe. For them, this was no less wholesome than a fluffy princess ride at DisneyLand.

“Seriously guys, is this fun to you? You just go around killing people!” Ideally, it'd be better to let it slide without the unnecessary commentary, but this is far from ideal so you let the boredom and booze speak for you.

“Oh and Genshin is not violent at all!! Sweet little Hillichurls getting hit by a meteorite just for existing is fun, right?” Satoru mocks back in an instant without taking his eyes off the game.

“I don’t think you know Hillichurls to be calling them sweet and little,” you argue, offended that your favorite game was dragged into the conversation.

This time Suguru replies,”Maybe you are just salty because you don’t know how to use a console.”

Taking full offense, you challenge, “I would've learnt it ages ago if I wanted to…”

“What's stopping you? That way you can play your precious Genshin on the console as well. It will be fun. Then we can all have a game night.” Suguru's tone is condescending but you understand him well enough to know when to take the bait.

“Hard pass! No way I wanna play with you both. It would only make my hair whiter than this dumbass.” You say pointing at Satoru.

“Huh! The feeling's mutual darling. I’m not psyched about you ruining our sacred games night. Also, you might finally start to look a bit attractive with hair like mine.” 

Satoru’s comment ticks you off, you know better than to let it get to you but you're too far gone to think straight now. So you put down your wine glass as you stomp to where they're sitting, ripping out the console from Suguru, settling in the tiny space between the two manspreading, “You’re on, bitch!” 

“You really think you can beat me?” Satoru looks amused, Suguru has a similar look on his face.

“Just shut the fuck up and start.”

As the game starts, you realize how dumb this decision was – you'd walked right into the trap. Not only do you not know how to use the console, you don’t even know what this game was and what you needed to do.

“I’m going to find youuu~~” Satoru says in a creepy singsong voice that makes you shriek as you try to run in the game. 

Suguru just lies back on the sofa laughing at both your antics. No matter how much you tried to believe the cat analogy exclusively applied to the two, everyone knew you were one too.

“Found you!” Satoru squeals as you nevertheless try to hide and fail miserably. And before you know it, your screen turns red with the words DEFEATED on it.

You pout at Satoru and he says, “Aww, that was no fun. Let me heal you so we can go again.”

“Really! You can do that?” You ask, looking up to him with glittering eyes.

“Satoru!” you hear Suguru suddenly scold, causing you to stare at him with confusion. And before you can ask what was wrong, you hear a few more gunshots from the game. Satoru, being the absolute worst, continues to shoot your already dead character.

‘SatoruAlmighty_89 WINS’ the screen displays.

“Suguru! Satoru is so mean!” You look at Suguru with those puppy eyes that you know makes him melt. Your final trump card, given that he may or may not have called that look adorable in the past.

“‘Toru, your name doesn’t really look that well on top of the leaderboard… kind of used to seeing my own.” Suguru pokes at his best friend just to rile him up.

“Bitch please… Do you wanna go again?” Satoru takes the bait.

“Nope. Not me… her.” he says, tilting his head in your direction.

“Hmm?” you simply give him a confused look. But before you can decipher the meaning behind his words, he wraps his arm around your waist to pull you to him in one swift motion till you’re sitting on his lap. Your face turns hot as you quickly slide down to adjust between his parted thighs instead – trying to keep the atmosphere pg-13, what with Satoru in the room.

Suguru, on the other hand, couldn’t care less – he leans forward till his chest is flush against your back, resting his chin on your shoulder. His huge arms wrap around you, enveloping you into him as they hold the console in front of you. 

“Okay, let’s defeat him, shall we?” he whispers sweetly in your ear, “Let me take it from here.” you feel his hot breath behind your ear, making you blush harder than a rose.

Satoru gives you both a disgusted look, “Ugh… get a room!”

“Somebody’s bitchless.” you tease Satoru. It wasn’t hard to sense the sexual tension that had always lingered in the back ever since you had started living together with Suguru – sure, you had two other roommates but you never wanted to tear the others’ clothes off in a fervor. Shoko had once teased you that ‘if one could try cutting the sexual tension with a knife, the knife would grow blunt due to how thick it was.’ 

As you’re laughing at the now-pouting Satoru, you twist your neck to look back at Suguru, giving him a big grin that makes his heart do summersaults. 

Suguru’s fingers encompass your dainty ones as he guides them to the console. As the guys start playing the match, you move your fingers to the side of the device, letting Suguru take control as his fingers rapidly slam and rotate the buttons. You can’t look away from his hands even when the game begins. His fingers look so sexy moving around the console that you can’t help but imagine how they would feel on you.

“Pay attention to the game, sweetheart.” he whispers into your ear. His words catch you off-guard as your eyes shoot up to the screen, embarrassed that he’d caught you staring. His comment puts you into a deeper daze but you shake it off to focus on the screen, still you find your mind wandering, barely caring about the game. 

He’s so into the game that his chest often presses against you as he tries leaning forward when a battle gets too intense. At one such moment, before you can talk yourself out of it, you shift your hips back ever so slightly to press against his crotch. You swear you feel his otherwise restless movements still for a split-second but he doesn’t let his composure falter since he had a match to win.

Suguru actually manages to win as his name makes it back on top of the leaderboard. You cheer out loud and turn around to hug Suguru, but not before tilting your head to blow raspberries at Satoru.

“What are you… like five?” Satoru complains. You simply bring your hand up to do a blah-blah gesture, rolling your eyes at him dramatically.

“It’s not fair! It was two vs one.” Satoru pouts.

“Go cry about it somewhere else. A win is a win!” you tease him further. 

Satoru gets up from his place and walks off saying, “I anyway don’t play with cheaters.” 

If you weren’t reeling in the high from your win and laughing at Satoru’s antics, you would have noticed the wink he gave to Suguru before retiring to his room.

You’re still laughing as you watch him go back to his room and shut the door behind him with a ‘night, cheaters!’

When it gets quiet, you suddenly become super aware of the way you’re still perched comfortably in Suguru's lap. 

“You need to actually teach me how to use this thing.” You say as you try to break the impenetrable tension, fumbling with the console before tossing it on the sofa, beginning to get up.

Before you can move any further, you’re pulled right back into Sugurus lap as you let out a tiny squeal at the unexpected move. Your breath hitches in your throat when you feel his clearly evident boner, hard against you.

“Did you really think I'd let you off so easily after you pulled that little stunt during the game?”

ayato ♡

he can see your embarrassed face from a mile away.

you've known him from a long time, longer since you could remember, since the two of you had been children. since then, he had gained many more responsibilities and duties, filling up his schedule almost completely.

still, he makes time for you, no matter what.

and if you trouble him about it, saying there's no need to, he'll only smile and respond, "a little trouble is worth it if it means spending time for you."

he knows you all too well.

just from a glance, he can read your expression like a book. and he makes it no simple matter, either. ayato will smirk at you smugly whenever he manages to make you successfully flustered, face burning at whatever flirty line he's just spoken.

so when you walk into his estate one morning, eyes downcast, he immediately knows.

"hey. tell me. what's wrong?" he frowns slightly at your behavior, no doubt concerned. when you stay silent, his expression only deepens. "you can tell me."

and you do tell him, eyes teary with worry. '"...there's just... a lot going on right now." you finish, sighing, not wanting to let this part of you be revealed to the azul-haired man so easily.

his eyes glisten, his voice soften. sending a bittersweet expression your way, he places a gloved hand over yours, where its trembling on the table, before leaning forward and pressing his soft lips to your forehead gently.

"it's going to be okay. trust me, alright?"

"how can you be so confident about that?" you question him, pouting with disbelief. you can feel your face burn at the action, but you try your best to ignore it, especially with ayato's gaze burning into you.

the next time he speaks, it's barely a whisper:

"i'll make sure of it."

thoma ♡

he was always gentle to you and everyone he met.

and you loved him for it.

the way he smiled softly and raised his hand in greeting at the children playing on the street, or the way he snuck out of the estate to give the stray animals some food to eat... his heart was kind, and he made you happy when you were around him.

"off to to see the stray dogs again, thoma?" you give him a little wave from your post. "would you mind if i came with you?"

"not at all! i'd be happy with you by my side." the man smiles charmingly as the two of you walked down the path. pausing, he turns to you with a quizzical expression. "ah... but don't you have work to do?"

"hehe, don't worry, i made sure to inform my supervisor. i've been waiting for you, actually." thoma blushed at your confession, laughing nervously.

"i-i didn't make you wait too long, did i?"

"of course not. you were just on time, actually. anyways, when you visit all those pets, what do you usually do?"

"ah... actually, i was planning on knitting some sweaters for them. after all, it's been getting colder recently and they don't have any shelters, so..." thoma sighs. "winter is always a tough time for strays. i would take them in if i could but... there's just too many, and that would only lead to more problems." you can see his eyes soften at the mention of the topics, his expression full of remorse. he feels deeply about this, and you know its already starting to rub off on you.

"then how about we adopt one together?" you first suggest it as merely a joke, but as you see thoma's eyes light up, emerald irises sparkling with hope, you feel your own heart skip a beat.

he rushes forward, clasping your hands in his own as he stares at you intently. "could we...really do that??"

he's too close...!

"i-i mean- if you really wanted to-" you stammer, trying to avoid eye contact as you can feel your skin grow warm from where he's touching you. just thinking about it makes your face flush.

"then let's try our best together!"

itto ♡

he didn't care what others thought about you.

to him, you were just someone he cared about.

his childhood was rough, to say the least. he was shunned and ignored wherever he went, even if he was hurt and in need of assistance. so you completely understood when you came to the arataki gang headquarters, pleading for a chance to get into the infamous group.

of course, he gladly let you! after all, at that time, the gang was short on hands, and you were the perfect fit - just what they needed.

in fact, they're so happy to have you here that for the first week or two of your arrival, everyone calls you "godsend" or "savior" instead of your actual name. it's entertaining to say the least, and you're glad to have found such a nice group. they're your found family, and they never cease to make you laugh.

itto is no exception. he jokes a lot around you, especially if he senses your feeling down, and always brings you whatever snacks he was able to win from the kids that day. its childish, you know, but you love that little playful aspect of him. it makes you feel warm.

then the rumors start.

you don't even know the full story, all that you know is that they're false - lies spread by the citizens of inazuma with too much time on their hands and too many stories to tell.

"they killed a innocent man..."

"oh my! really? i heard they engaged with several various married men...! seems like they really betrayed all of us... making us think they were a decent person... i can't believe this."

you're nervous to go to the first meeting after the rumors start, so you don't, telling them you're sick and that you'll need a week or two to recover.

well, it's been two weeks, and there's another meeting planned. there's no way to escape it this time - they've surely already heard the rumors, no matter how clueless they may be.

so when you show up at the planned spot, you're surprised to only see itto standing there, glancing around for you. he spots you walking toward him, and gives you a big grin that stretches across his face. "hey! it's been a while! how have you been?"

"...good."

"what're you so quiet for? is something wrong?" itto blinks at you with his crimson eyes cluelessly.

"ah... you've heard the rumors, haven't you?"

"of course i have." you feel a chill surround you as you frantically stare up at him with wide eyes, entire body trembling. "what about it?"

"they're not true!!" you stutter, tears desperately pooling at the edges of your eyes. "i promise-!"

"i never said they were. don't worry. i believe you."

"you... do?" suddenly, everything seems warmer.

"of course. you'd never do something like that. i trust you." he grins sheepishly, laughing a little. "sorry, did that come out too headstrong?"

you shake your head, smiling. "not at all. thank you."

"it was the least i could do."

heizou ♡

he always matched your level and helped you catch up to speed.

and it happened quite often.

after all, the detective's man was astoundingly fast, he was a genius in all standards imaginable. because of this, even though you were quite clever, you still found it hard to decipher some of his ramblings when he was trying to crack a particularly difficult case.

still, he tries his best to help you, especially since you're a detective yourself. he often points out things that people aren't able to see the first time, but never acts obnoxious or brags about it. he's just happy to be of help.

so when the two of you get assigned to the same case, the red-haired man is ecstatic. he doesn't stop talking once on the way to the office, the words just keep on coming! he's speaking so fast that you can't make out his individual words but you can tell he's excited from the way he almost skip-walks and the way his emerald eyes sparkle when he looks at you.

he's giddy all throughout the debriefing, occasionally sending you enthusiastic glances from across the table as he grins at you playfully. it's hard to concentrate when he's acting so... childish.

but it's not like you don't like it.

quite the opposite.

when you two finally set off for the investigation, heizou still hasn't calmed down. maybe it's because this is the first time that heizou gets the chance to show you his skills on the job, or maybe it's just because he can finally be with you while he does his work... either way, you don't find it annoying. instead, you find it almost funny that he's this eager about the whole thing.

there's a light tap on your shoulder, and you whirl around to see heizou grinning at you, upturned eyes closed as he hands you a daisy that he's just picked off the side of the road. his face is red, but he manages to hand you the flower nonetheless, your fingers and his brushing against each other as he does. his flushed skin is warm to the touch.

"is this...for me?" you look at the man, confused. still, you can feel heat creeping onto your face.

"who else?" heizou gives you his signature grin, opening his eyes to reveal his near spring green irises underneath. "thanks for staying by my side."

bonus!

dansleif ♡

he was distant, but even so, he tried to show you his feelings for you.

he was never the affectionate man. far from it.

he never acted cold, at least he didn't try to when you were around. dain was usually silent, too, which didn't help the awkward pauses in conversation whenever you tried to talk to him. still, there was something about him that just made you feel so happy.

and dainsleif felt the same, although he may never admit it. your mere presence was enough to put his usual wandering thoughts at peace, and he felt more collected. your demeanor just had something to it that washed away whatever troubles he had been facing, no matter how large.

you forgot how you had met him. but you remembered when and where. it had been a starry night, and the moon shone bright. you had peered out over the shadowy meadow, and had spotted his tall figure, his head of blonde glimmering in the light.

you blink your eyes hazily, glancing up at the sky. the sun set a long time ago, and the moon is hidden by dark clouds, flashing with bolts of lightning.

it's well past your normal sleeping time, but your sleep schedule is already so messed up it barely matters anymore. dain sits across from you, staring out the window and at the howling wind outside. the two of you coincidentally were out for a walk, one of the rare times dain was free, when a thunderstorm had to start and the two of you leaped into the nearest ruins and were sitting and waiting out.

"at least there's a roof, right?" your voice was hopeful, trying to make the best of the situation. that is, if you could call it a roof. it was a few poorly placed wooden boards that were sealed with some kind of gritty cement, but it managed to keep the rain out, so who were you to complain?

dainsleif nods, his gaze trained on you. pausing, he hesitates before opening his mouth to say something. "if you're tired... you can rest. i'll take watch."

"no! i couldn't do that to you-" you cut yourself off with a sudden yawn. self sabotage. "besides, who knows the next time we're going to be able to talk alone like this?"

"it'll be okay. here." he pats his legs from where he sits, an unreadable expression on his face. "this'll be more comfortable than the stone floor, right?"

you can already feel your face burn. "ah-"

"please?" something about his almost whiny voice takes you off gaurd, and you already feel your will crumbling.

"alright..." you slowly walk over to him, laying on the ledge he's sitting on and resting your head in his laps. he smiles down at you, before unpinning his cape and draping it over your figure. the warmth and his sweet scent hits you immediately, and you can only feel yourself being lulled further into sleep.

"dain-!" you protest weakly, pouting. you can feel his smiling gaze from where you've buried your face in your arms, embarrassed face flushed red.

"sleep well, darling."

Nsfw mdi

Cw: dubcon, consent noncon,yandere, creampie

( sorry that part two took so long ahhh, this is the final part for now since there is not enough sexy hsr men besides Luka and I guess Svarog for funsies. If you want me to do Genshin Impact men or make an audio headcanon list for women, let me know.)

Gepard

Man, he took pride in being a wholesome internet boyfriend who would only do sweet little audios of himself role playing as your boyfriend or love interest in different scenarios. And then the Reckoning... he posted an audio where him playing as your knight in shining armor takes a hit for you. And oh boy those gasp and growls and whimpers of pain he did while the reader was patching him up- the people wanted more.

He tried to do NSFW audios before but he couldn't do it his face would turn red and it's hard would be so hard he would clutch his chest. Here he was, a grown man practically on the verge of tears out of embarrassment. What would his coworkers think if they found out what he had done? What would Serval think? Nope, Nope, Nope! He couldn't do it!

But then the Stars aligned and he made a separate account when Gepard posted his first audio. A ramble fap, and oh boy his breath shuttering in the mic has he moans and wimpers, you could even hear him begging. Till now he never really noticed how talkative and, loudish He could be Gepard even try stifling his whines when he got gotten close.

Even though it took everything out of him to finally post it, he had to say it felt nice being praised. He only posted initially because he wanted to make his fans happy. He is a people pleaser, after all. And it did kind of feel nice... he doesn't usually get to let go like that, being his job as a Silvermain Guard and all... there's a lot of stuff he didn't realize about himself.

Welt

It is the skeleton in his closet. His ultimate secret that he moans in a microphone for strangers that like his voice a little too much. His listener is absolutely adore him. His sultry voice and his personality drag people to him like a moth to a flame. He doesn't post very often but when he does everyone is crying and sobbing for more. And he doesn't write his own stuff either it's mostly just Scripts he tries to go along with the script says, but he can't help but sprinkle a little bit of his own kinks in there—praise, worship, oral fixation.

Even when he's stroking himself, he even catches himself murmuring about how much he wants to taste you and how good you are for him, how good you make him feel, and how sexy you are. His audios are always gentler, with lots of kisses and touching in that softer tone that makes you melt. From giving you some much-needed stress relief from a hard day at work to a hot heavy make out session after a dinner.

Sometimes he would make his own Scripts and even have some artwork he Illustrated to go with them. His own scripts and audios are very rare but are very well done, dripping with sexual tension and a good plot. He's pretty much allergic to porn without plot.

Call him crazy but he likes that his audio is put a smile on people's faces he wants to think that his posts brighten people's days he likes being relied on as much as he himself likes someone who he trusts with his life.

Luocha

Help, because why can I see his audio is being mostly corruption kink? Even his audios tend to lean more on the darker side. Though not by much, the most you can expect is a pastor who can't help but want someone he had been eyeing that comes to his church or a doctor who, while their patient was unconscious, laid his lips upon them and whispered how much they wanted them.

Mostly does dubcon or cnc; they almost did yandere content but decided not to post it. Even in his darker videos, he still keeps that gentlemanly gentle, sweet attitude with an odd obsessive undertone, perhaps even possessive., which many of his listeners fall for.

When close, his listeners can hear him mutter broken sentences about how good he feels and how wrong this is or how much he needs you before begging to fill you up.

He wants it to feel as real as possible so he gets the good mics the ones where you can feel his breath against your ear, and he always loads his audios with sound effects. He has good quality work, and he enjoys doing it too.

Dan Heng

Dan Heng rarely does scripts almost exclusively makes very short audio where you can hear his hand around his wet cock and his moans; he'll go on and on about whatever lewd thought was on his mind. About how much he needs a tight hole around his cock or something inside of him.

Dan Heng has absolute pan panic. One could only dream about having both at the pussy and cock at the same time, and that is a dream he thinks about constantly when recording new audio for his rabid fans to listen to.

He finally got himself a toy discreetly since his hand wasn't enough, and those grunts and frustrated growls eventually turned into shaky breaths and whimpering, the tight silicone walls proving too much as he tried to keep quiet himself. His hips buck up into the toy itself as he continues edging himself. Dan Heng, almost losing control, rolls his head back, whimpering about how much he wants them. His listeners ate that shit up.

Dan Heng makes very standard vanilla content and hardly ever gets too kinky, where he plays the role of a boyfriend. Sadly Dan Heng isn't too good at acting so the boyfriends he normally plays are people with authority or professionalism since his voice naturally sounds like that.

The Return of the Yakshas

Pairings: Various Genshin Men x Isekai'd!Reader

Summary: The four Yakshas are back, and they are going to make sure that you take a break from your studies. One wrong move from Bosacius makes Xiao wish that the Yakshas returned to their graves. Oh, and the men bond with each other at the Chasm! Lots of wholesomeness on that end.

Note: The four Harbingers won't be making an appearance in this fic for this week since this story does focus on the Yakshas and the men's friendships with each other. I'm not sure if it's legitimate or not, but apparently, windtrace might come back? If so, that means I can finally work on the third part of How to (Not) Play Windtrace! Idk how I feel about this fic, but I hope you all like it ;v; Remember that I don't post anywhere else but on Tumblr (Genshinluvr) and on AO3 (Aaliah_exo).

Warnings: None that I know of 🤔

Word Count: 9.3k

You push yourself out from underneath the table and stretch your arms in the air, letting out a mixture between a yawn and a sigh. You look over at the clock on the desk in the library and massage the back of your neck before standing up from your seat. It is almost the evening, and you have finally decided to be finished with your studies for the day. You have been studying since early morning and would take frequent breaks in between your studies to eat, snack, hydrate, and take bathroom breaks.

“Are you done for the day?”

You jump at the sound of the voice; your head snaps towards the direction where the voice came from. There, on the couch in the library, lays Childe. Childe is sprawled out on the sofa, his lanky arms and legs hanging off the ends of the couch. Childe was staring at you intently with those blue eyes of his.

You press your hand against your chest and take a deep breath, nodding your head at Childe’s question. Childe smiles and gets off the couch, walking over to where you stand before throwing his arms over your shoulders and pressing his lips against your temples. You sigh and let yourself melt into Childe’s arms, face pressing against his chest, breathing in his cologne. 

“I’m finally done with my studies for the day,” You murmur against his chest.

You close your eyes and hum with contentment when you feel Childe run his fingers through your hair, massaging your scalp. Ever since you got accepted into Sumeru Akademiya, Childe has decided that he will be lounging in the library whenever he doesn’t have any Fatui responsibilities. However, Childe isn’t the only one that does that. In fact, the other men do it as well whenever they’re free and don’t have work to tend to.

The door to the library opens, and Diluc walks into the library, stopping in his tracks when he sees you wrapped up in Childe’s arms. Diluc and Childe lock gazes momentarily, almost scrutinizing one another. Diluc rolls his eyes and looks over at you, clearing his throat softly to get your attention.

“I’m going to assume that you’re finished with your studies since you’re trapped in the Harbinger’s arms. It’s almost time for dinner,” Diluc says, ignoring the hurtful gasp Childe has let out. 

You slowly pull yourself out of Childe’s grasp. “Ah, dinner,” You murmur. You rub your growling stomach with your hand. “How could I forget about dinner when my stomach has been growling for a while?” You ask yourself, ignoring the looks Childe and Diluc are giving you. 

Aether peeks his head into the library from the entrance. “To dinner, we go?” Aether asks, smiling at you sweetly.

You nod your head. “To dinner, we go! I don’t know how much longer I can go without dinner,” You walk over to Aether, who is holding his hand out for you to take. You grab Aether’s hand, and the two of you walk out of the library together, with a disgruntled Childe and Diluc following after you two. When you, Aether, Childe, and Diluc step foot into the kitchen and dining area, Thoma walks out of the kitchen with an apron on and a plate of food in his hands.

Thoma’s eyes light up when he sees you, and a big smile appears on his face. “Oh, good, you’re here! I was about to go and fetch you from the library to tell you that dinner is ready.” Thoma says, setting the plate down on the table.

You take a deep breath and let out a sigh. “The foods smell amazing! I’m getting even more hungry than I already am from smelling the food.” You said, walking over to the dining table. “Should we go on and call the others to come to the dining room since dinner is ready?” You ask, looking over at Thoma, Aether, Diluc, and Childe. The four men sit around you and begin to pick and choose the food they’re going to be eating, putting the food on their plates and scooping some rice into their bowls.

“No need to call for us; we can smell the food from miles away,” Gorou says as he sits in the seat right next to you.

Tighnari takes a whiff of the food and hums in delight. “Thank you for the food, Thoma. They smell amazing as always.” Tighnari smiles at the blond man before sitting next to Gorou and begins to pick which food he’s going to eat.

Al Haitham looks around the dining room as more men begin to slowly trickle into the dining room, sitting on seats that are empty and unoccupied. Al Haitham crosses his arms over his chest, his eyes scanning the table while mentally counting how many people are at the table, just to see who is missing and who isn’t from the dining room. 

Heizou looks at Al Haitham with a questioning gaze. “What are you doing?” Heizou asks, reaching for the sushi with his chopsticks.

“Two people are missing from the table.” Al Haitham mutters. 

You and the men look over at the two empty chairs. Venti nods his head and raises his hand in the air as if he was in a classroom. 

“The two missing people would be blockhead and blockhead junior. The last thing I remember was them going to the Chasm for something.” Venti shrugs his shoulders as he reaches for the skewers. 

Ayato looks over at Venti; his eyebrows pinched together. “Did they ever say how long they’ll be gone? They were gone since early morning.” Ayato crosses his arms over his chest. Venti shakes his head in response.

Baizhu hums softly. “How peculiar…. I wonder what they’re up to.” Baizhu trails off, stroking his chin before reaching for a slice of the Sticky Honey Roast. 

Dainsleif cuts into the steak before bringing a piece to his mouth and taking a bite out of it. “If they didn’t mention what they’re doing in the Chasm, then we mustn’t pry them of it. It could be a personal matter or the safety of the citizens of Liyue,” said Dainsleif.

You nod your head at Dainsleif’s response before asking, “Should we wait for them to return and then start eating our dinners once they’ve returned?” You look over at the front door subconsciously, hoping that Xiao and Zhongli will walk right into the abode unscathed and safe. They’re immortal beings, for archon's sake. Surely they’re safe and sound, considering they’re going together and not alone! 

“As nice that sounds, some of us,” Kazuha gestures to Itto, “can’t wait any longer.”

Itto was devouring his food; his cheeks puffed up from the food that he had shoved into his mouth, humming with delight and rubbing his stomach. Itto stops chewing his food when he realizes that almost everyone at the table is staring at him, their food untouched.

Itto blinks. “What?” He asks with his mouth full of food.

Scaramouche looks at Itto with disgust and tosses a bread roll at Itto. “Chew with your mouth shut, you idiot. And do not talk with your mouth full of food.” Scaramouche chides.

Itto gives Scaramouche and everyone in the room an apologetic smile before swallowing the food in his mouth, reaching over for the cloth napkin, and wiping his lips. You sigh softly and lean back in your seat, running your fingers through your hair. As much as you want to wait for Xiao and Zhongli to return to the abode, your stomach is growling so much that the others are giving you looks.

You look up and make eye contact with Albedo; Albedo gestures for you to eat. “I know you want to wait for Zhongli and Xiao to return from the Chasm, but you shouldn’t suppress your hunger any further,” Albedo says softly.

Kaeya nods his head. “Albedo is right. You should start eating your food before it gets cold and also because we can hear your stomach from over here.” Kaeya gives you a small smile. Cyno holds up a plate that contains Adventurer's Breakfast Sandwich and points at them, giving you a look as if he was wondering if you wanted some of the Adventurer’s Breakfast Sandwich. You debated for a moment before looking down at your plate. You are feeling hungry, so it wouldn’t hurt to get some more food.

“You should get some Adventurer’s Breakfast Sandwich. You didn’t hear it from me, but I heard that they’re eggcellent.” Cyno says, passing the plate over to you, holding back a smile.

You snort and shake your head, grabbing the plate from Cyno’s hands to place one Adventurer’s Breakfast Sandwich on your plate. “I love your jokes, Cyno. I never get tired of them,” You said.

Cyno looks over at Al Haitham with a smug smirk on his face, his arms crossing over his chest. Before Al Haitham can make a comment at Cyno’s joke, the estate’s door opens, and the mansion is immediately filled with unfamiliar voices and boisterous laughter. Everyone’s heads turn to the direction where the commotion is coming from, only to see Zhongli and Xiao walking in front of four people who everyone is unfamiliar with.

“Zhongli! Xiao! There you two are! We’ve been waiting for you two to show up for dinner!” You said, getting up from your seat and approaching the two men.

Zhongli clears his throat and adjusts his tie. “Apologies, dearest. Xiao and I were caught up in…. Personal businesses. But worry not, we are back.” Zhongli gives you a small smile.

“How can I not worry when you two have been out of the abode for hours without updating us about your whereabouts?” You frown.

“I understand that you were worried, but please, do not worry about us,” Xiao says softly.

You open your mouth to respond, only to be cut off by unfamiliar laughter. You take a peek between Xiao and Zhongli, making eye contact with four unknown people. They look powerful, intimidating, and breathtaking. They all stare at you with interest and curiosity, taking baby steps toward you, Zhongli, and Xiao.

“Zhongli, Xiao! Care to introduce us to the four guests you’ve brought into the abode?” You squeak, and your face gradually becomes hot the more they stare at you.

Thoma laughs nervously, rubbing the back of his neck. “I wasn’t expecting for us to have guests! Had I known, I would’ve made more food.” Thoma says softly, his cheeks flushing to a bright red that reaches to the tips of his ears.

“Oh! There’s no need for you to make us food. We’re adeptis. We don’t need food to survive.” The blue-haired girl says, giving Thoma a polite smile. 

“We can eat food, but it’s not necessary for us like how it is for mortals.” The red-haired girl says, fiddling with the hem of her outfit.

“It’d be rude to eat food in front of guests.” Albedo murmurs, looking over at the food laid out on the table.

You give the four guests a pleading look. “I know adeptis don’t need food to survive, but a small snack would suffice, right? Plus, we can get to know you four more over dinner!” You said, gesturing for them to follow you to the dining table.

The man with four arms peeks between Xiao and Zhongli, asking, “Since when did you two eat food?”

Xiao and Zhongli ignore the purple-haired male’s question and proceed to walk towards the dining table with their guests following after them, their eyes scanning their surroundings in awe and curiosity. You pull out the extra chairs that are kept in the storage room between the kitchen and dining room, placing them next to each other where Zhongli and Xiao have sat down.

“Do any of you have food preferences? I can make them in a short amount of time, depending on what food I’m cooking.” Thoma says, crossing his arms over his chest.

“There’s no preference for us. We don’t mind trying foods we’ve never had before.” The black-gold-haired male speaks up.

Thoma nods his head before walking off to the kitchen to prepare something for the four unexpected guests to eat. You stare at the black-gold-haired male intently, your eyes narrowing, one arm crossed over your chest with the other arm propping your head up on the table. The black-gold-haired male stares back at you, his eyebrows raised. Archons he’s almost as beautiful as Zhongli. Speaking of Zhongli, why do they look almost similar to each other? Not only that, but you notice that his element is the same as Zhongli.

“Is there something I can help you with?” The black-gold-haired male asks, crossing his arms over his chest.

You squint your eyes at him and look over at Zhongli, then back at the black-gold-haired man. But really, though, why do they look so similar to each other? It’s almost like they can be related, but you know that Zhongli doesn’t have any siblings, so why do they look similar to each other?

You point over at Zhongli and the black-gold-haired man, mouth agape. “Zhongli doesn’t have a brother or sister, so who stole who’s face?” You ask, catching them off guard.

Aether nudges you lightly. “I think there’s a better way to ask that question by wording it differently,” Aether whispers.

“Are you asking why we look similar?” The black-gold-haired male asks.

You nod your head. “Yes, but I, uh, can’t find a way to word it properly. I’m sorry, my brain is fried from studying all day today.” You sigh while rubbing your forehead with your hand.

The black-gold-haired man smiles at you. “No need to apologize. I understand why you ask that question,” he replies.

“So! What are your names, and how do you four know Xiao and Zhongli?” Heizou speaks up, looking at the four guests curiously while leaning on his left arm.

Zhongli smiles and points at each person while saying their names. “Everyone, dearest, meet Bosacius, Indarias, Bonanus, and Menogias. They, along with Xiao, once served under the Geo Archon, Rex Lapis.” Zhongli says.

“Once served under the Geo Archon? Are you saying that in the past tense because Rex Lapis has passed away, or is it because you have retired from your role as the Geo Archon?” Cyno asks, staring at Zhongli with confusion with his arms over his chest.

“To the people of Liyue and other nations, it's the first one. But to those who know Zhongli personally, it’s the latter.” You reply. “It can get confusing because Zhongli likes to convince people into thinking that he’s not the Geo Archon, even if they have a feeling that he is the late Geo Archon.” You give Zhongli a look. Zhongli gives you a small smile and crosses his arms behind his back. Itto lets out a low whistle; he leans back in his seat and crosses his arms over his bare chest. You look over at Itto, who seems to be deep in his thoughts. You wonder what’s going on in that head of his. You grab the cup of water in front of you and begin taking a sip from it.

Itto lets out a small laugh. “Talk about gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss. Geo Archon edition.” Itto commented.

You snort and accidentally choke on your water. You quickly swallow the water to prevent yourself from spitting it out and begin to cough into your cloth napkin. Before anyone can rush to your side to check on you to see if you’re okay, you quickly hold your hand up and shake your head as if you’re telling them that there is no need to check up on you.

“I’m fine, I’m fine. I just choked on my drink, but I’m fine nonetheless!” You cough, wiping the tears that gathered around your eyes from how hard you’ve coughed.

Al Haitham sighs. “Remember to drink slowly,” Al Haitham says softly, reaching over to wipe the stray tear from the corner of your eye.

“I wasn’t drinking fast! The thing that made me choke on my water was Itto’s comment.” You huff, setting the cup down beside your plate of food. You look over at Itto. “Where did you hear that from? I’m surprised that you know that parody phrase from my world.” You said. 

Tighnari sighs softly. “He heard you say it when you completed your homework in the library one day.” 

You stare at Tighnari, your face slowly heating up. “Oh,” You mutter. “I didn’t think anyone was in the library when I said that to myself.” You pucker your lips and poke your Adventurer’s Breakfast Sandwich with your fork.

Thoma soon returns to the dining room with a tray of food in his hands that contains four different plates for each guest. The guests thanked Thoma before digging into their food; you and the others take that as a sign to start eating your dinners. You cut into the Adventurer’s Breakfast Sandwich and bring the sliced piece up to your mouth and take a bite out of it. You nearly let out a moan from how delicious the Adventurer’s Breakfast Sandwich tastes, making a mental note to ask Thoma to teach you how to cook some dishes from Teyvat.

While eating your dinner, you can’t help but feel eyes staring holes into your skull. You slowly look up from your plate and look towards the direction of where you’re assuming the staring was coming from. You end up making eye contact with Bosacius, who smirks and waves at you with one of his hands, the apples of his cheeks bright pink. You smile at Bosacius and wave back at the four-armed man before continuing to eat your dinner. Childe watches the entire interaction unfold in front of him, his eyes narrowing at Bosacius and Menogias while chewing on the squid tentacles, his grip tightening around the cutlery. 

Bosacius leans over to Menogias and whispers something into his ears; Menogias pauses and looks over where you sit and nods his head slowly. Bosacius smiles widely and roughly pats Menogias on the shoulders, causing the man to jerk forward from the rough pat on his shoulder. Xiao glances over at Bosacius and Menogias from his plate of Almond Tofu, staring at them with scrutiny.

“What are you two talking about?” Xiao asks, placing his spoon down on the plate as he turns to look over at the two men sitting beside him.

Bosacius laughs. “Oh, nothing to worry about, Xiao! Just continue eating your Almond Tofu. This conversation is between Menogias and me.” Again, Bosacius pats Menogias’ shoulders roughly. Menogias looks at Bosacius, giving him a look as if he’s telling Bosacius to stop patting him on the shoulders roughly while he’s trying to eat.

Halfway through dinner, you feel your eyelids beginning to grow heavy. You try to blink your sleepiness away, but it isn’t working because the more you blink, the heavier your eyelids feel. You put your fork down and rub your eyes with your knuckles, hoping to rub the sleep away. The minute you put your hand down, you let out a soft yawn and covered your mouth with your hand.

Venti giggles. “Looks like someone’s getting sleepy.” Venti sang.

You blink your tears away and stretch your arms and legs while remaining in your seat. “Yeah, sorry about that. I got up really early in the morning to start on my assignments and studies; now my sleepiness is catching up to me.” You mumble.

“It’s okay if you can’t finish your dinner. You should get some sleep. I noticed that you’ve been sleeping less ever since you were accepted into Sumeru Akademiya.” Ayato says, giving you a soft smile. Archons, that smile of his. Does Ayato know how pretty he is?

“What time is it, anyway? I feel like it’s not even late evening yet,” You said.

Baizhu looks over at the clock on the wall and squints his eyes to read the numbers more clearer. “It is almost eight in the evening,” Baizhu replies. 

You open your mouth to make a comment about how it’s still too early for you to go to bed, but you can’t bring yourself to say it. You’re tired, and you need sleep, or else you’ll collapse and fall involuntarily fall asleep. You let out a defeated sigh and nodded your head slowly.

“Alright, I’ll go to bed. Save these for leftovers because I want to eat them tomorrow morning when I wake up to continue my studies,” You said, getting up from your seat.

Kazuha gives you a questioning look. “Aren’t you on break?” Kazuha asks.

“Yes, but that doesn’t mean I’m free from the clutches of my assignments and studies. After all, being an Akademiya student is stressful and a lot of work. It’s fast-paced, something I should get used to but am not.” You stifled a yawn with your hand. “Anyway, I should be going to bed now. It’s earlier than usual, but I’m about to collapse at any moment.” You joked.

Diluc stands up abruptly and walks over to you. “I’ll take you to your room. I don’t want you to fall down the stairs or suddenly collapse.” Diluc loops his arms around your waist and steadies you.

“That’s nice of you, Diluc. But I think I can go up the stairs just fine.” You pat his arm lightly, resting your head on Diluc’s chest, and close your eyes.

Childe raises his eyebrows at you. “Snookums, as much as I don’t like seeing you in the arms of that redhead, I think it’s best for you to let him guide you to your bedroom. When you stood up from your seat, you were swaying like you were on a waverider,” Childe says, leaning back in his seat next to Zhongli. 

Childe doesn’t get a response from you in return. Instead, the dining room was filled with your soft breathing. Diluc looks down at you, only to see that you have fallen asleep in his arms while standing up. A gentle smile appears on Diluc’s face, his eyes soften, and he gently lifts you up bridal style, cradling you in his arms.

“Wow, they must have been staying up for hours to complete their assignments and studies,” Gorou says softly, leaning on his arms as he gazes at your sleeping face with a smile on his face. Everyone knew that you’ve been harsh on yourself ever since you received your first failing grade. Technically, it wasn’t a failing grade, but to you, it was a bad grade, and you’ve been pushing yourself to study more since that one “bad” mark on your record. It was a low A, can you believe that? To you, it’s a bad grade, and the men never knew why you’re so harsh on yourself when it comes to your grades, even if you’re passing all of your courses with flying colors.

Dainsleif nods his head. “They’ve been putting themself under a lot of pressure with their studies lately. I’m worried that they’ll push themself past their limits and burnout,” Dainsleif says softly, getting up from his seat and walking over to where you and Diluc are at. 

Dainsleif squats down in front of you and brushes a stray hair away from your face with his fingers; the stray hairs tickle your nose, causing you to scrunch your nose and bury your face into Diluc’s chest. Diluc’s chest rumbles with laughter; he caresses the back of your head with his hand and presses his lips on the crown of your head.

“I believe it’s time for you to take [Y/N] to bed,” Kaeya comments. 

He takes a sip of his wine and gives Diluc a teasing look. Diluc gives Kaeya a brief glare before turning around and walking up the stairs with you in his arms. Once Diluc disappears up the stairs with you in his arms, Scaramouche sighs and leans back in his seat, rubbing his face with his hands.

“I understand that [Y/N] is a hardworking student who prioritizes their studies, but they need to take a break from their studies. I think a few days away from their studies is enough,” Scaramouche says.

“Huh?! Are you implying that they rarely take breaks from their studies? It’s the only thing they do?” Indarias asks, looking at Scaramouche and the other men, appalled by what she heard.

Itto sighs dramatically and nods his head, running his fingers through his hair. “You heard that right, Miss Indarias. [Y/N] doesn’t like taking breaks from their studies. As much as we’re proud of them for prioritizing their studies and doing well in school, it’s gotten to the point where they lose sleep over it and would skip meals because of how wrapped up they are with their studies.” Itto frowns.

“So, their studies have affected their sleep cycle and their eating habits. That’s concerning.” Menogias murmurs, stroking his chin.

Ayato nods his head. “Unfortunately, it has. They even signed up for another quarter at the Akademiya, but this time, they registered for twenty units worth of courses, and it worries us how it’ll affect them.” Ayato massages his temples with a soft sigh.

Bonanus looks at Ayato quizzically. “Twenty units is how many classes? I’m not familiar with the mortal education system.” She crosses her arms over her chest.

“That is about five classes, but with some classes they take, they need to take a discussion or a lab course with the main class that has units. The discussion and labs aren’t worth any units; they’re an additional class that has to be taken with the lectures.” Tighnari replies.

Bosacius blinks at Tighnari and scratches the back of his head, making a face. “So, it’s like you learn about something in one class, and in the other class, you talk about what you’ve learned in that class,” Bosacius says slowly, quirking up an eyebrow at Tighnari, who nods his head slowly.

Aether sighs sadly. “All we want is for them to take a break for one day. One day away from their studies wouldn’t hurt them or their grades at all,” said Aether. He rests his chin in the palm of his hands. 

“A break for one day, you say?” Bosacius murmurs, stroking his chin with one hand while resting his other hand on the back of his neck, leaning back in his seat.

Heizou nods his head. “Well, yeah. One day would be a good way to start it off and get them used to taking breaks from their studies, whether for a few hours or a day or two days. But knowing them, taking breaks from their studies makes them anxious since they’re always worrying over how they perform in the Akademiya.” Heizou rubs his chin with his thumb and index finger.

Menogias sighs. “When you put it that way, it sounds like [Y/N] is going to push themselves until they can no longer push through their studies.”

“Yeah, no kidding. I love how they’re stubborn, and it’s cute! But in this case, it’s frustrating because it’s affecting their health.” Venti sighs sadly, leaning on his arms with a frown on his face.

After a few minutes of talking, everyone finished up their dinners and washed and dried their plates, bowls, and cutlery. Thoma grabs your food from the plate and puts them in a small container before placing it into the refrigerator. Since the four guests are Yakshas and don’t need sleep, they decide to roam around the abode while actively avoiding the Harbingers’ estate. Even though they’re curious about the residents of the Harbingers’ estate, Zhongli and Xiao warn them not to step foot anywhere near the mansion that is on the other floating island.

“These men really care about [Y/N],” Indarias murmurs, letting her feet hang off the edge of the island while leaning back on her hands, gazing at the stars in the abode.

Bonanus giggles, swinging her feet back and forth at the edge, and rests her head on her shoulders. “It’s sweet! Although I do worry about [Y/N] too, and I only met them not too long ago.” Bonanus’ bottom lip juts out. 

Bosacius claps his hands, startling the three around him. “I have a great idea!” Bosacius smiles widely, one pair of arms crossing over his chest while the second pair of arms props him up as he leans back. Menogias, Bonanus, and Indarias trade worry glances with each other. Whatever Bosacius have in mind, they know it won’t be good and that it will cause nothing but trouble.

When you come to your consciousness, you realize that you’re not in your bedroom. You shift around and crack your eyes open, only to see that someone is cradling you in their arms. You furrow your eyebrows with confusion and look up, only to make eye contact with Bosacius, who smiles down at you widely.

“Good morning, sleepyhead! It’s good to see that you’re finally awake! You were dead asleep when we snatched you up.” Bosacius chuckles.

You blink at him in confusion, still not awake. “What do you mean by that?” You mumble, attempting to sit up in his arms. You look around and make eye contact with the other three Yakshas, who are smiling at you nervously, while Menogias look tired and slightly irritated.

“It’s great to see that you’re able to get a full night of sleep! We brought you here early in the morning, and it is now, I’m assuming, nine in the morning!” Bonanus says.

Your eyes widen, and you thrash out of Bosacius’ arms, trying to get down. Bosacius scrunches up his face before he places you down. When your sock-clad feet touch the ground, you look at your surrounding, only to see that you’re at the Chasm. You slowly turn to Bosacuis and the other Yakshas.

“Why are we at the Chasm?” You whisper.

Menogias sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose. “Bosacius wants us to take you out of the abode so you can take a break from your studies. Last night, the men expressed that they wanted you to take a break from your studies. So, Bosacius came up with a plan to sneak you out of the abode at the crack of dawn and, well, let you have a day off from your priorities.” 

You attempt to rub the sleep from your eyes and look around at the Chasm, the sun beating down on you five, the wind blowing your hair in your face. They kidnapped you, pretty much. They didn’t even let you get ready for the day, and now you’re at the Chasm with a bedhead, wearing nothing but your pajamas and socks.

“And do the men know that you all decided to take me on a mini vacation to the Chasm?” You ask, propping your hands on your hips, shifting your weight onto your right leg.

Bosacius laughs and pats your head. “No need to worry about that! I’m sure they know about us taking you out on a break! They shouldn’t be worried at all since you’ll be fine because you are with the four strong Yakshas! Five, if we’re counting Xiao, but he’s not here with us right now.” Bosacius says.

“I am now.” 

Everyone around you jumps and turns to look in the direction where the voice came from, only to see a very irritated Xiao standing behind Bosacius with his arms crossed over his chest. Xiao has a scowl on his face; he looks like he’s about to explode. 

“Xiao! What a pleasant surprise to see you here!” Indarias laughs, rubbing her arm awkwardly.

Bonanus clears her throat softly. “Xiao, how did you know that we’re at the Chasm?” She asks, gazing at the shorter male with curiosity.

“Someone,” Xiao looks over at Bosacius with a glare, “called my name.” Xiao crosses his arms over his chest.

“Care to explain why you four decide to kidnap [Y/N] from the abode and take them to the Chasm?” Zhongli asks, walking up to the six of you with his arms over his chest and a small frown on his face. Behind Zhongli follows the other men. The minute their eyes lands on you, a huge wave of relief washes over them, and the tension lifts off their shoulders.

“Psh! We didn’t kidnap them! We took them out of the abode so they could enjoy a mini vacation to the Chasm since we figured they hadn’t seen the Chasm before.” Bosacius says, crossing his arms over his chest while his other arms are propped on his hips.

Bonanus laughs nervously while rubbing her arms. “You did say that you wanted [Y/N] to take a break from their studies for one day. We figured that taking them to the Chasm would be a nice change of scenery, and they can relax and explore the Chasm with us!” said Bonanus.

“Listen, we don’t mind the four of you taking [Y/N] outside of the abode, but please don’t snatch them up without our knowledge.” Al Haitham sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose.

You nod your head and turn to look at the four Yakshas. “And please inform me about it first before you all take me outside of the abode while I’m still in my pajamas with a bedhead.” You plead, running your fingers through your slightly knotted hair. “Plus, you’re all lucky that I sleep with clothes on this time.” You rub your eyes tiredly. 

Itto’s eyes almost bug out of his head. “You sleep naked?!” Itto gasps, putting his right hand over his bare chest as if it was the most scandalous thing you’ve said.

You make a “so-so” gesture. “Meh. Yes and no, it depends on the temperature and the weather.” Before you can explain any further, you stop yourself. “You know what, I’m just going to stop talking here because I’ve said too much,” You said. You look at your surroundings; you hold your hand up and shield your eyes from the sun that is shining down on all of you. The temperature is cool; you can feel a breeze every few minutes. The air is fresh and crisp, almost like you chew on mint gum and chug a cold bottle of water at the same time. You look down at your sock-clad feet and wiggle your toes in your socks. You hear the faint crunch of the dry grass beneath your feet, the dried grass poking into the fabric of your socks, poking the soles of your feet.

“As much as I love feeling the earth against the soles of my feet, I want to stop by the abode to change my clothes. It feels weird to be outside in my pajamas.” You mutter, subconsciously crossing your arms over your chest to cover your body.

Scaramouche raises an eyebrow at you. “You’re wearing a plain t-shirt and cotton shorts.” Scaramouche reaches over and thumbs at your shirt, his thumb lightly brushing against your hip bones, making you visibly shiver. 

“Well, I wore them to bed, and therefore they are my pajamas, and I am wearing pajamas!” You sputter, lightly batting at Scaramouche’s hand. 

Kaeya ruffles your bedhead while stifling his laughter behind his hands. “You don’t have to worry about shoes because we brought your sandals with us just in case.” Kaeya hands you your sandals.

You quickly thanked Kaeya before putting your sandals on while making a mental note to toss your socks into the laundry basket when you all returned to the abode. You comb your fingers through your hair to unknot the tangles in your hair while muttering about how you wish your hair wouldn’t get tangled so easily while you slept.

“So, are we all going to be hanging out at the Chasm for today?” Kazuha asks, adjusting his bangs. 

Bosacius gives the men a fake smile and rubs the back of his neck. “I was hoping that we,” Bosacius gestures between you, him, and the other three Yakshas beside him, “were going to be hanging out with [Y/N] at the Chasm.”

Gorou stares at Bosacius with wide eyes. “Oh! You don’t want us to tag along just in case anything goes wrong?” Gorou asks as his ears twitch with anxiousness. 

Menogias sighs. “We’re Yakshas; we once worked for Rex Lapis. I’m sure the four of us can protect [Y/N] from harm if anything were to go wrong,” Menogias says.

Baizhu hums softly and pulls out a first aid kit. “You five can still hang out at the Chasm. We will tag along, but we’ll keep our distance for you five to hang out and explore the Chasm together.” Baizhu suggests.

Indarias raises her eyebrows at the men in front of her, crossing her arms over her chest. “What, do you guys not trust us?” Indarias demands.

“It’s not that….” Albedo trails off, looking over at you.

You smile at the four Yakshas awkwardly. “I have attachment issues, and being away from them for an hour makes me really nervous. Especially when I’m with people that I don’t know much of.” You added. The Yakshas give you a look. “I’m working on it. Plus, I didn’t magically get attachment issues when I first arrived at Teyvat; I’ve been like this ever since I was a kid, and it dragged on into my adulthood. I’m doing better now, and I’m more than halfway to getting over my attachment issues.” You informed the three immortal beings. 

Bosacius sighs dramatically and throws one of his arms around your shoulders. “Alright, your bodyguards can come along with us.” He ruffles your hair playfully. “In the meantime, they can bond with each other as well! I can see some tension between them,” Bosacius whispers loudly to you, ignoring the looks the men shot in his direction.

Diluc hums to himself. “It would be nice to get to know all of you better. We’ve been living together for months now, and I know little things about all of you. So it would be nice to bond with all of you.” Diluc strokes his chin.

“Yeah, I’m down for that! Making twenty new pals while our cute lover goes and explores the Chasm with the Yakshas a hundred feet from where we’re at.” Childe says, throwing his arms over Diluc and Dainsleif’s shoulders with a smug smile on his face.

Dainsleif sighs and crosses his arms over his shoulders. “Let’s just hope that this doesn’t backfire in our faces,” Dainsleif mutters, his blue eyes scanning the surroundings. 

The corners of Cyno’s lips tilt up. “I hope you’re all prepared for what I have in mind,” Cyno says. 

While the men follow behind you and the four Yakshas, you look around the Chasm in awe. It’s beautiful, it’s enormous, and you can’t wait to see all of the beautiful ores that have yet to be mined from the Chasm. Maybe you can take a few ores back to the abode as a souvenir! Speaking of ores, you want to get one of the rarest ores in the Chasm, but you know it’ll be complicated to mine them since they’re scattered around the Chasm.

“Is there anything you want to do at the Chasm, [Y/N]? I know you’ve never been here before, but perhaps you have some knowledge of the Chasm.” Bonanus says, skipping beside you while looking over at you curiously.

“I’m not sure if it’s possible, but I want to bring a souvenir back to the abode. An ore, but it’s rare and hard to find,” You reply.

Indarias looks at you with interest. “Are you talking about the Archaic Stone?” She asks.

Your eyes light up, and you nod your head. “That’s right! I am looking for the Archaic Stone! Although if we don’t find it, it’s totally fine because any ore from the Chasm is fine with me. I’m not picky, but bringing the Archaic Stone back to the abode would be cool!” You smile. “I registered to take this course at the Akademiya, where we study gems! It’s called gemology, and I’m taking it as an elective course since it’s not related to my major. I’m excited to take that class.” You clap your hands with excitement. 

“When taking that course, you should be careful what you say to gemologists and how your first impressions go. They can give you the coal shoulders.” Cyno comments. 

You stop in your tracks and turn to look over at Cyno. “I don’t know how you come up with these pun jokes so easily, but I applaud you for it because it’s impressive,” You said. 

“Of quartz, my jokes are going to be funny. I’m hilarious.” Cyno retorts, pressing his lips in a thin line to hide his growing smile.

Al Haitham rolls his eyes. “As much as I dislike your pun jokes, I find it impressive that you can come up with them out of thin air.” Al Haitham sighs. 

Bosacius shields his eyes and looks around the Chasm, squinting his eyes to try to get a glimpse of the rare stone you and Indarias were talking about earlier. In the distance, Bosacius spots a group of hilichurls and a mitachurl gathering around a rock a foot away from the edge of a cliff. Bosacius nudges Menogias and gestures in the direction of the hilichurls and mitachurl. It seems like he might have found this rare stone you’re looking for.

Bosacius turns to you. “Come here for a moment.” You look at Bosacius skeptically and look at the three Yakshas, who are giving Bosacius an unreadable expression. They look like they wanted to smack Bosacius for what he has planned on doing. And that is to take you to where the Archiac Stone is located—where the hilichurls and mitachurl are hanging out.

Menogias narrows his eyes and nudges the Yaksha with four arms. “What in the world are you doing?! You’re not going to take them to that area, are you?” Menogias whispers to Bosacius.

“Relax, I’m a Yaksha, remember? I can protect [Y/N] easily without needing any backup or assistance.” Bosacius says, crossing his arm over his chest while propping his hands on his hips.

Bonanus’ eyes widen. “I understand that you want to take [Y/N] to get the stone they want to get as a souvenir, but not while the hilichurls and mitachurl are still around that stone.” Bonanus looks up at the cliff and squints her eyes.

Bosacius lets out a dramatic sigh. “Alright, alright. I won’t take them there while the hilichurls and mitachurl are still alive, but I will take them to get that stone once I get rid of the hilichurls and mitachurl,” Bosacius states. Bosacius turns to look at you and holds up his index finger. “Give me a moment.”

You blink, and Bosacius disappears from your sight. You shrug your shoulders and walk over to the wooden cart that is filled with mined white iron chunks and crystal chunks. Indarias, Menogias, and Bonanus walk up to where you’re standing, occasionally looking up at the cliff where Bosacius is at.

“So, how did you end up with these men?” Indarias asks, looking over at the twenty men with the corners of her lips quirking up.

You blink at Indarias. “Can you clarify that? Are you asking about how I end up living with them or how I end up dating these men?” You raise your eyebrows at the yaksha with flaming red hair. The way her fiery red hair flows in the breeze gives the illusion of flames raging in the wind.

Indarias chuckles and nods her head. “Yes, how did you manage to capture the hearts of these men? It’s impressive, and it’s been ages since I’ve seen a relationship like this in Teyvat.” She strokes her chin with her hand; her hands remind you of molten lava burning in the volcanoes. Not only is she powerful, but she is also breathtaking.

You shrug your shoulders. “I don’t really know. I know it’s cliché to say that I’m no one special, but I really am. I don’t have a vision, I’m not rich, I’m not a public figure, nor do I come from a notable family. Heck, I’m not even from this world,” You said.

Bonanus tilts her head to the side. “Maybe that’s what makes you special! Despite you not being from this world, perhaps they feel this connection with you when they lay their eyes on you,” Bonanus says, sitting on the pile of mined ores while swinging her legs back and forth.

You think about Bonanus’ comment for a moment before looking over at where the men are standing. From a distance, the men are gathering around a large slab of rock, onikabutos placed on the rock. It was Itto versus Ayato, the men standing behind their respective onikabutos, arms either crossed over their chests or propped up on their hips.

“This time, my onikabuto is going to defeat yours, Lord Ayato!” Itto proclaims loudly, pointing at the Kamisato heir for a dramatic effect. 

Ayato lets out an amused chuckle. “Well, we shall see about that. This wouldn’t be the first, second, third, or fourth time for me to beat you in the beetle fight,” Ayato states smugly, smirking at the oni that is standing on the other side of the rock slab.

Childe slaps down a big bag of mora at the edge of the rock slab, crossing his arms over his chest with a smug smile on his face. “I’m rooting for my fellow hydro vision wielder.” Itto looks at Childe with a look of betrayal. The men around Ayato, Childe, and Itto mutter to one another, digging into their pocks and pulling out their bags of mora before announcing who they’re rooting for and who’s going to win the match.

Menogias squints his eyes and leans forward. “What in the Teyvat are they doing?” Menogias asks softly. Menogias crosses his arms over his chest and looks over at you for answers.

“Itto and Ayato are having a beetle fight. And what the others are doing, they are betting who is going to win the round by placing however much mora they want to bet on,” You reply. “I would join, but watching them gamble against each other is hilarious.” You snort. 

“Huh! So it turns out that they’re already friends?” Bosacius asks, walking up to you, Menogias, Bonanus, and Indarias. “I thought they only tolerate each other’s presence because they’re all dating you.” Bosacius comments, standing beside you.

“There are times when they’re friends and times where they tolerate each other’s presence. Overall, they do get along with each other.” You chuckle. 

“They have a strange bond, almost like siblings,” Bonanus says thoughtfully, tilting her head to the side, resting on her shoulder.

You smile and nod your head. “Yeah, almost like siblings.”

The men suddenly erupted with loud cheers, and others with loud groans. You and the four Yakshas turn to look at what is happening from a distance. Those who vote for Itto are cheering loudly, clapping hands, high-fiving each other, and clapping Itto on the back. Those who vote for Ayato are groaning and doubling over with defeat.

“Congratulations on your win, Itto!” Diluc smiles at the oni, patting Itto’s shoulders.

Itto smiles widely. “Thanks, Diluc!” He grabs Diluc’s hand and gives his hand a squeeze.

“What is going on?? Menogias blinks.

Bosacius groans. “Aw, man! Did we miss out on the beetle fight already!?” Bosacius exclaims, running his hands through his hair with a pout on his face.

You see Zhongli approach Itto and congratulate the oni; Zhongli places his hand on Itto’s back and gives the oni a proud smile. 

Itto gives Zhongli a bashful smile, “Thank you, Zhongli! I appreciate it!” Itto blushes, rubbing the back of his neck shyly. Itto pulls Zhongli into a hug and lifts the former Geo archon, catching him by surprise. Zhongli laughs and pats Itto’s head with an endearing smile on his face.

“Alright, Itto. You can put me down now.” Zhongli chuckles. Itto lets out a nervous laugh and places Zhongli back down on the ground. 

“I knew you could do it, buddy! You finally beat Lord Ayato!” Gorou says, patting Itto’s back with a big smile on his face.

Aether and Heizou nod their heads. “We always believed in you, and you came out as the victor in the end!” Aether says, giving Itto a thumbs up.

Heizou nudges Aether. “Hey, does that mean we get the mora that is betted against Itto?” Heizou whispers to the blond male.

“Fair is fair,” Baizhu says, looking over at the losing team.

Kaeya shakes his head. “You would think that Itto is going to lose this round, but it ends up being the opposite,” Kaeya says.

The winning team walks over to the team that lost and gives each other pats on the shoulders, high-fives, and a rub on the back. You pout at the adorable scene and cup your cheeks with your hands, trying to hold back a squeal. They trade laughs with each other and talk idly with one another, looking out to the Chasm and back at the onikabutos on the rock slab. You rest your back against the wooden cart and watch the loves of your life closely, enamored with the interaction that is going on between them.

“You did good, Itto. I’m proud of you.” Ayato says, giving Itto a small smile. Itto looks like he’s going to burst into tears at any moment, his cheeks flushing red as he stumbles over his words before muttering out a shy “thank you.” Childe brings Ayato into a side hug, patting him over the shoulders.’

“Congratulations on your win, Itto! You did great out there!” Thoma says.

Venti was deflated; he was sprawled over the rock slab with the onikabutos on his back. “There goes my chance of buying wine,” Venti hiccups. His bottom lip is jutting out in a pout.

Both Tighnari and Cyno pat Venti’s head. “There, there, Venti! I’m sure Master Diluc wouldn’t mind letting you drink some Dandelion Wine for free back at the abode,” Tighnari says.

Scaramouche snorts. “Judging by the look on Master Diluc’s face, I don’t think that’ll be happening,” said Scaramouche. 

Dainsleif cracks a smile at Scaramouche’s comment and Venti’s dramatic pout, shaking his head. “I’m sure Master Diluc will allow you to drink Dandelion Wine as long as you don’t sneak into the wine cellar like last time,” Dainsleif says, giving Venti the side eye. Venti’s cheeks turn bright red, and he stumbles off the rock slab, causing the onikabutos to slide off of Venti’s back and onto the rock slab.

“Ah yes, that was the time when I witnessed Master Diluc’s wrath for the first time,” Kazuha says, stroking his chin with a smile on his face.

Albedo nods his head. “I have never seen someone so angry before until that incident with the wine cellar at the abode,” Albedo says, leaning up against the tree beside Kazuha.

You feel someone nudge you. You look over to see Bosacius holding up the Archiac Stone to you with a smile on his face. Your eyes widen, and you grab the stone from Bosacius’ hands, gazing down at the stone in awe. You look up at Bosacius, the feeling of guilt gnawing at you after realizing that you’re so distracted by the men’s adorable interaction that you didn’t get to go to the area where Bosacius acquired the Archiac Stone.

“Hey, what’s with that look on your face?” Bosacius asks, looking at you worriedly.

You sigh and let your hands fall to your side, still gripping the Archiac Stone. “I was so distracted by what’s going on that I didn’t even realize that you left to get me the stone,” You said softly. “I’m sorry, Bosacius. I knew you wanted to take me to the top of the cliff where the Archiac Stone was located, but I wasted your time.” You bow your head with shame, your shoulders slumping with a deep frown on your face.

Bosacius looks at you with surprise, his eyes wide and mouth agape. The look of shock slowly melts away, and he gives you a soft smile, throwing his arms over your shoulders and pulling you into a hug. “No need to worry about it, [Y/N]!” Bosacius ruffles your hair. “With that adorable pout on your face and how you look at those men, I can see why they’re so in love with you.” Bosacius lets out boisterous laughter. 

“I-” You cover your face, feeling heat rushing to your face and to the tips of your ears.

“I might as well snatch you up for myself while they’re distracted.” Bosacius jokes, grabbing you by the waist and tossing you over his shoulders. “But don’t worry, I’ll return you to them by the end of the day!” He pats the back of your thighs.

“They’re not going to like this.” Menogias sighs, massaging his temples. “Rex Lapis is going to make you suffer the wrath of the rock,” Menogias warns. Bosacius lets out a sarcastic “tch!” and walks off with you over his shoulders.

Bosacius pauses in his steps and turns around. “It’s not like I’m going to be taking them for myself for eternity! As much as I would love to do that, which I can, I won’t do that because I know Xiao and Zhongli will go after my head if I do!” He pats the back of your legs again.

Before you could say something, a tiny, yet sharp, pebble flies to Bosacius’ face, hitting him right in the eye.

“Ow!” Bosacius yelps, dropping you on the ground.

You groan and rub your aching butt. You slowly stand up and look in the direction where the pebble came from. Xiao holds a rock in his hands, tossing it in the air before catching it. Xiao stares at Bosacius with his eyes narrowed, trained on his target.

“If you dare to take [Y/N] away from us, expect consequences,” Xiao states, his hand gripping the rock tightly.

Baizhu hums and strokes his chin. “As much as I don’t condone violence, I might excuse violence this one time…” Baizhu trails off.

Aether leans to whisper to Xiao. “Hey Xiao, weren’t you happy about seeing the Yakshas return?” Aether asks, raising his eyebrows at the shorter Yaksha. 

Xiao rolls his eyes. “Well, they can return to their graves for all I care,” Xiao grumbles.

You blink at Xiao with wide eyes. “Xiao! Don’t say stuff like that!” You hiss, giving the man a look. Xiao huffs and lets the rock fall to the ground; he crosses his arms over his chest and sticks his nose in the air.

Bonanus and Indarias chuckle and drape their arms over your shoulders. “While you men figure out how to get along, [Y/N], Bonanus, and I will be exploring the Chasm.” Indarias says, pulling you away from the group by your wrist, with Bonanus following after you two.

You turn to look at your boyfriends, Bosacius and Menogias. “Have fun bonding! We won’t be too far!” You holler over your shoulders.

Your boyfriends and the two Yakshas follow after you, Bonanus, and Indarias, grumbling amongst one another. As much as they wanted to take you back to the abode and not have to deal with Bosacius attempting to steal you away from them, they didn’t have the heart to do it. Especially when they see how you, Bonanus, and Indarias get along with each other so well. Plus, today is supposed to be the day when you take a break from your studies and assignments. They might as well try to strengthen their bond with each other while you’re exploring the Chasm with the hydro and pyro Yakshas while admiring the Archiac Stone in your hands a couple of meters ahead of the men.

[short-yandere-stories]

Merry Christmas!  I’ve been busy with some final exams and writing on the upcoming chapters of a long commission, but I figured I’d take some time for a short drabble or something as a little Christmas gift for you guys until I can properly get back into dealing with the requests. 

So here we have some headcanons/drabbles of yandere Genshin Impact characters and how they would celebrate Christmas. There are so many characters so this is something I literally spun a character wheel for (rerolling the children) because I couldn’t decide on what characters to pick.

CW: Yandere (obviously), mentions of kidnapping, stalking, bondage, forced shows of affection (non-con affection), non-con kissing, slightly suggestive content, one (1) kiss is consentual, kazuha has straight up murdered some guy, decapitation, reference to the movie ‘seven’, Hu Tao’s is just wholesome for some reason, contemplation of murder, power imbalance and blackmail.

This is a yandere work. Proceed at your own risk and please be mindful of your triggers.

An Obsessive Christmas

:✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧ ･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ*:･ﾟ✧*:

Kaeya has not had a happy Christmas ever since that faithful day when his brotherly ties with Diluc were severed. 

He spends most Christmases never really feeling festive or partying. His colleagues have all come to the conclusion that he just wants to be alone during the holidays, and leave him be in his office (leaving a small gift, but nothing extravagant as he doesn’t want gifts).

If anyone would spend their Christmas Eve walking past the Knights of Favonius’ headquarters, and just happen to look up, they would see Kaeya sitting in the window, bottle of wine in hand, looking longingly in the direction of the winery.

So it comes as a huge surprise to all his coworkers when Kaeya is suddenly super excited about Christmas one year.

He’s happily strolling around wearing a Santa Hat, buying mistletoe from Flora, and getting Marjorie’s assistance in finding a gift.

Jean extends an offer for him to celebrate with them this year, but he declines with a bright smile, saying that he already has plans. 

He doesn’t elaborate, and Jean and Lisa whisper about if it’s a partner or if he and Diluc have made up.

Once work is finished, and Kaeya slips into his apartment, dusting off the snow, he’s practically giddy with excitement.

You’re just where he left you this morning, asleep in the huge armchair in front of the fireplace, which was still burning.

Adorning your body was bright red ribbon, tying you both to the armchair, rendering you unable to move your limbs, and, of course, wrapping you like a present for the Cavalry Captain.

“I’m home, sweetheart,” he coos, placing a kiss to the crown of your head, gently waking you up. The fluffy white ball on the hat tickles your cheek, making you let out a disgruntled murmur before blinking your eyes open. 

Kaeya does his best to ignore the way he sees your eyes drop when they land on him, realizing that you’re still here. 

Kaeya proceeds to move your body, making sure not to unwrap his gift just yet, sliding onto the armchair beneath you and setting you in his lap. 

“Merry Christmas. It’s been a while since I’ve been so happy during this time of year, and it’s all because of you,” he said, nuzzling his face into the crook of your neck. 

“How about we eat some nice dinner together before we unwrap our gifts, hm?” 

His hand travels over your body, resting high up on your thigh.

“Or do you not want to wait?” he whispers, lips touching your neck softly.

:✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧ ･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ*:･ﾟ✧*:

Usually, Childe celebates the holidays back at home with his family, but this year, he is stuck in Liyue by orders of the Tsaritsa.

This, of course, hasn’t stopped him from sending a ship headed back home loaded with far too many gifts for his younger siblings.

And, well, his orders techinically didn’t include a clause forbidding him from coming home during Christmas, but it was a great excuse to use in the apologetic letter sent back home to his family. 

While you had been a lot more well-behaved lately, he did not trust you to meet his family yet. While you might not do anything, it would be highly risky, and that is not in the festive spirit!

Childe hurries to wake you up on Christmas morning with some freshly cooked traditional Snezhnayan Christmas breakfast, looking at you with such puppy eyes that you can’t help but at least try it.

You know your captor is more on edge than usual since he can’t see his family, and you don’t want to risk making a move that will cause him to snap.

He’s just as giddy as a little kid, putting present upon present on top of your blanket in the bed, grinning ear to ear as you open them one by one.

There are so many gifts that you feel dwarfed in the huge bed towards the end of the unwrapping, piles of expensive items everywhere.

You thank him, trying to sound as genuinely grateful as you can, and you apologize for not really having any gifts for him since you haven’t really been allowed outside.

But he doesn’t mind, saying that getting to spend Christmas with you is a gift enough in itself.

Hopefully soon, you’ll be able to meet his family as well! 

You spend most of Christmas cuddled up in his arms -- he barely wants to let go of you for even a moment, telling you stories, snuggling and talking about how happy he is that he’s got you. 

On a whim, you pause, and turn to face him.

He looks at you, soft smile on his face and one eyebrow crooked in question. 

“I have a gift for you,” you manage, watching his eyes crinkle in joy.

Before he can open his mouth to joke, you lean forwards and press your lips against his. 

The kiss lasts for just a second before you pull back and look away, but her immediately holds you tighter, whispering about how long he’s waited for you to do that and you can’t help but wonder if you just made a fatal mistake.

:✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧ ･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ:･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ*:･ﾟ✧*:

Kazuha hasn’t had time for Christmas since he began to roam the wilds, running away.

But there is something comforting to him, watching you celebrate with your friends, hidden out of your sights. 

The wind flows around him, bringing your laughter, and the smell of treats.

He watches you closely, a soft smile on his lips as you open the gifts from your friends. 

How he wishes he could be in there next to you...

But he can’t yet. 

For now, he’s just a rustle of leaves following you.

Albeit not for long.

As you pull out a perfectly wrapped square box, your friends look confused. 

Their reaction makes sense. After all, he was the one who put it there.

You read the note slipped underneath the ribbon atop the box, and Kazuha watches your minute reactions with glee.

You look so adorable when you look confused and slightly scared.

But it’s okay. He wouldn’t hurt you!

You just don’t know him yet. Once you do, you’ll look back on this moment with joy, he’s certain of it. 

Slowly, you unwrap the gift and open the box -- only to let out a scream and crawl backwards on your hands and knees.

Kazuha pouts mockingly. 

Weren’t you happy to see the head of your missing friend? You were so sad that he couldn’t make it to celebrate with you this year.

“No matter,” Kazuha thinks to him, eyes glued to your crying and shaking form, seeing one of your friends holding you.

You’ll soon have someone far better in your life than that so-called “friend”.

He promises.

The director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor was never really one for Christmas.

Despite her very joyful outlook on everything, she actually found the whole thing pretty dull.

People tended to avoid her no matter the time of year, which she tried not to beat herself up about, but sometimes it was difficult. 

Seeing everyone with their families, so happy with each other made her miss her grandfather even more.

Imagine her surprise, when on Christmas, just as she’d started to walk through the city, you’d stumbled up to her.

With a wide smile, you’d extended a small, wrapped gift, wishing her a merry Christmas.

Dumbfounded, she’d asked if the gift was really meant for her, feeling tears forming in the corners of her eyes at your affirmation. 

Looking down at your small basket, you bid her farewell, running off to locate your next reciever of the gifts you had.

Hu Tao opened the gift, admiring the hand-carved plum-tree flower, matching the ones on her hat, hanging on a necklace. 

Looking up, she saw you in the distance, handing a gift to someone else.

Your kindness was really something else, she thought, trying to ignore the painful sting of jealousy in her chest.

Maybe it would be better if the only person you showed your kindness to was her.

You should have known what you were getting into, associating yourself with the eccentric woman.

Hu Tao turns around on her heel, immediately walking back to the funeral parlor.

It seems like she will have some more discounts to hand out very, very soon.

As the leader of the Qixing, there are few things she wants that she doesn’t already have.

And Ningguang only sees that which she has yet to obtain as a challenge, rather than an obstacle. 

Your affections was one of those few things.

She already had you in her possession, stuck inside the Jade Chamber with no way to leave it yourself, but having you stay willingly and happily was another matter.

Christmas would be the perfect time to try to change that, Ningguang decided.

But to her dismay, the luxorious food and extravagent gifts she gave you for Christmas did nothing to change your mind.

You’d said, in a quiet voice, that all you really wanted was to go home.

And that, Ningguang could never allow.

With a sigh, she braids her clawed fingers together, switching tactics.

You hear of how simple it would be to make your parents’ business collapse. 

How easily she could have your friends evicted and thrown out.

And you are quickly reminded of the ruthlessness and coldness that rests in those beautiful eyes of hers.

You’re not sure when tears started falling down your face, not until Ningguang reaches out, gently wiping them away.

But it’s okay, she assures you. She can keep all of that from happening if you do but one thing for her.

Realizing that there is no way out of this finely crafted golden cage she’s prepared for you, you couldn’t help but sob, falling forwards into her embrace.

She’d comfort you, talk about how happy she’d make you if you let her...

And you were happy that you couldn’t see the satisfied smile on her face as she held you.

[casualheizouenjoyers]

“don’t forget to like and subscribe!”

genshin youtubers au

characters included: childe, xiangling, nahida, 5wirl (aether, venti, xiao, kazuha & heizou), & kaeya

Childe (can be read as platonic or romantic)

100% a sweaty gaming streamer

he unironically owns a minecraft themed bed im SORRY

is really sweet to the fan artists in his community and hypes them up IMMENSELY

would wear a maid dress for a sub goal

i feel like his community would be like medium size with people who donate a LOT of money and subs

mainly on twitch, uploads complications from streams on youtube but no original content

streams late at night or super early in the morning even though he has nothing to do during the normal hours of the day, his neighbors hate his guts

would definitely be the type to show you off to chat

if you’re dating this man say goodbye to a normal sleep schedule you’re never getting it back

would unironically give you his merch for christmas

posts the worst takes on twitter, for the love of all that is sacred take control of his main account

unironically has called you his little pogchamp

Xiangling (platonic) 

has a really cute cooking channel with a cute like animated chibi intro. gouba is the channel mascot and the design on every piece of merch

has the most aesthetic kitchen and posts a new tour/tutorial whenever she renovates it

occasionally posts videos from the kitchen of her dad’s restaurant and/or videos with her dad and they’re the most wholesome thing ever

being her friend or roommate instantly means being in at least one video to taste test

if you can’t cook she definitely tests out tutorials on you and asks for your advice on how to explain stuff

and if you can cook she definitely asks you to participate in friendly cooking competitions or challenges with her (her food is always better but she’s a sweetheart about it)

Nahida (platonic)

wholesome toy review channel

in my soul she has a hyperfixation on toy production so despite her young age her reviews are lowkey mad informative and oddly insightful

especially favors puzzle games and those fake pet toys (i had one of a cat growing up and i loved mr whiskers with my heart and soul)

tries to edit her videos herself, but eventually her big sibling (you) edits them while she watches and makes suggestions

you manage the ‘business’ side of the channel, like helping decide which toys to review and where to get them and manage any sponsorships and explain what those mean (she picks it up real fast though)

i imagine teucer also has a two review channel so the two would become friends while reader & childe are jokingly in a rivalry (or at least reader takes it as a joke, child is very 50/50)

Aether (romantic or platonic)

wholesome travel blogger who people keep trying to beat in subscriber count before deciding to become his friend

i imagine the abyss is like a company that tried to sponsor aether but he refused because the company was against his morals, and like the fauti are another company that has the same situation going on

enjoys showing people the best places to go in different countries and how to save lots of money while doing so

paimon is definitely his younger sister or like close enough friend that they’re basically siblings who goes with him and is really good with languages so she helps aether out

didn’t really have a set house anywhere and would just edit in hotel rooms or friends’ houses until he formed the youtube group 5wirl and they live together in a big house

people were worried about what his content would be during quarantine so he switched to making content with 5wirl and playing variety games while also still making content about how he plans his next destinations and stuff

definitely plays geoguesser he’s been everywhere he’s a god at it

literally collabs with everyone he’s so friendly, being with him would be a bit frustrating because at least before 5wirl you’re always going to be moving around but he treats you like royalty

most aesthetic instagram feed in the UNIVERSE, has to be convinced to post rare pictures of himself

venti (romantic or platonic)

first member of 5wirl! he’s a cover channel and his wind spirit form is his channel icon

either does the most beautiful cover you’ve ever heard or the most cursed parody in existence it’s always a toss up

LOVES fan artists and always commissions different artists to do the thumbnail for his covers and they’re gorgeous

another person to take twitter away from he only posts when he’s drunk

keeps forgetting to post when he’s about to go live so update accounts have to do it for him and his stream always crashes from the sudden influx of people

does drunk streams with kaeya and has a separate vods channel

chat first finds out about your existence during a drunk stream and you just awkwardly come in like “hi” 🧍🏻

first interaction with aether was when aether raided him on twitch and eventually they exchanged discords and became friends

dvalin is venti’s editor who remain anonymous

if you even jokingly mention you want venti to sing/play a song he’ll drop everything to do it for you

only plays any sort of video game on stream or in a video with xiao

xiao (romantic or platonic)

was convinced by venti to join 5wirl

xiao & venti first interacted with each other at a convention like vidcon and venti made up an intro song to go with his starting soon screen and they started to talk more

the first youtube person xiao would talk about you to is venti but he doesn’t let venti talk to you until he has to convince venti you’re real and not just an excuse to not hang out or call-

mostly plays horror games on stream, literally nothing startles this man he’s always sitting there like :| while venti is screaming his lungs out

he used to be in a youtube group with the other yakshas but they all decided to quit doing youtube or streaming and therefore xiao was super hesitant to join 5wirl but you & venti worked together to convince him to give it a shot

fucked up sleep schedule, has a really cool stream setup

kazuha (romantic or platonic)

1/2 of a buzzfeed unsolved true crime style channel with heizou, the two joined 5wirl at the same time

it’s a little different of a format, basically heizou does research of unsolved cases and presents his theories while kazuha does research on solved cases and heizou tries to figure out who the culprit was

likes to play music games as well, i headcannon that he has perfect pitch so he likes to do perfect pitch tests on stream (he has ‘beef’ with venti because they both have perfect pitch and do perfect pitch contests on stream and shit)

very aesthetic instagram, he occasionally collabs with aether to do some travel style stuff every once in a while to take a break as to not get burnt out from just doing the same content style

does solo content on the shared channel with heizou where he plays survival style games and shows off his fencing skills

kazuha has a fucked up sleep schedule but it wouldn’t affect you since he’s always mindful of his volume

tomo used to be the channel editor until he decided to go to film school and didn’t have anymore time so kazuha & heizou take turns editing with your aid

likes to play animal crossing on stream with you or team survival games like raft and always makes sure that if only one of you can survive it’s going to be you

likes to play minecraft on stream but only with other people, prefers survival to creative

heizou (romantic or platonic)

1/2 of shared channel with kazuha, it was originally his idea and he brought it up to kazuha because they were friends in highschool and thought at the very least it’d be a nice way to reconnect

when kazuha is on break for solo content he likes to play murder mystery games or invites you, xiao & venti (since heizou & aether are out filming travel content) to play clue with him. does he always win? yes. but it’s still really fun since venti likes to get very into his assigned persona/character and you do the same :)

also likes to do quizzes on the internet of like reading facial/body language and is INSANELY good at it

gets easily distracted from researching unsolved cases so you always help him stay focused and do research and he’s eternally grateful for that

doesn’t particularly enjoy playing jackbox games or any group variety stuff unless it’s with you & anyone from 5wirl

doesn’t really collab with sara but the two are friends and hang out at cons

always ropes you into acting in videos with kazuha that give people tips to remain safe in any sort of situation and not get taken advantage of

kaeya (romantic or platonic)

when not doing drunk streams with venti and occasionally rosaria he’s a fashion youtuber 100%

loves roasting subscriber outfits and also covers the history of trends

lovingly makes fun of his friends’ fashion sense but it’s all in good fun

makes sure whenever you go with him to cons y’all are the best dressed

the knights of favonius are a talent/management agency and aether is called an honorary knight because while he’s not part of the agency he does collab with a lot of their members

most stylish and lowkey youtuber merch

claims to be diluc’s brother, no one believes him and think he only says that so dawn winery can sponsor him and send him wine

usually has a good sleep schedule, but all his drunk streams are always at like 2 am so good luck with dealing with his hangover

the morning after drunk streams are always hell for the both of you
