theories on anemo characters:

anemo characters 🤝 venti: getting their visions because they either lost friendships, have dead friends, or will have dead friends.

because venti has a dead friend.

Aight, so I've seen a lot of headcannon that are like "Xiao doesn't know how affection works" or "Xiao doesn't know how to express his love," but-

(ignore the phone notification lol)

In game, Xiao was very clingy with the Traveler. Like, they were safe at this point. He did not need to keep holding on to them, but here he is keeping his arm around their waist and readjusting to get a tighter grip on their hand. Also-

I read somewhere that this gift was supposed to symbolize his desire to be with the traveler for eternity or something like that. Sadly, I don't have the source nor am I really familiar enough with Chinese mythology to back up this claim, so if anyone would like to add on here, that would be very much appreciated.

Ok, so final piece of evidence before I go into my actual headcannon- Xiao is an inherently gentle person who has gone through a lot of shit and actively tries to suppress that side of himself, but that gentleness sometimes cones out in little ways. The game developers visually depict this with both the two things above + that one idle animation where he's reaching out for the little spirit thingy.

So, actual headcannon:

Once Xiao has actually accepted someone into his life (friend or partner), he is very clingy

He's bad with words and knows he comes across as harsh, so instead of worrying about that, he just goes straight to physical affection

I also feel like he doesn't have the best understanding of what boundaries are

Like, lap open? It's free real estate and he's gonna lie on it. Hand free? Well someone's gotta hold it, so it might as well be him. Back exposed? Well now you're just leaving yourself wide open to attacks. No need to worry though, he's got you- yes, hugging you from behind is absolutely necessary and you should stop questioning his methods

Hot take I guess, but I don't think Xiao would actually be that protective.

Like, the lad isn't going to date or befriend someone unless he 100% trusts them

This extends to dealing with both humans and monsters

Xiao trusts that you'll call on him if you really need help

Also, Xiao is bad at reading people in general, so you're gonna have to be very clear and concise when communicating how you feel to him

Back to the more fluffy stuff- Xiao is kinda like a crow and will bring you back shiny stuff or just stuff that reminds him of you

He's also still trying to figure out Zhongli's retirement and interest in simple objects and is low-key hoping you'll be able to explain it to him

Anyways, this is all I've got for now. See ya next time (or not. I have no fucking idea what I'm doing with this blog)

Those genshin impact social media posts where Diluc runs a knights of favonius hate page are all wrong diluc's social media would be dedicated to his pet tortoise like this

I am a firm believer that

1) the tortoise has a fire based name

2) kaeya bullies the tortoise (based off me bullying my sibling's cat)

Update I think Jean would reply with her own tortoise (named Dandy based off dandelion)

more liyue names in chinese

after doing xiao’s earlier, i really want to properly go through everyone and everything at some point. these are the small things that latched onto my brain and refused to let go. 

the lore and worldbuilding of this game is too much… celestial imagery… i am in love…

the qixing (七星) of liyue literally means seven stars. it’s commonly associated with the word 北斗七星 (bei dou qi xing) - the big dipper. which brings us to…

beidou (北斗) : her name is the big dipper of the constellation ursa major. it’s only fitting that our favorite, best captain is named after one all seafarers’ favorite, best aids for navigation at sea :>

ningguang’s (凝光) title, 天权 (tian quan) can be taken to mean something like ‘right of the sky/heavens’. as an actual word, tianquan is the dimmest star of the seven in the big dipper, megrez. ningguang’s name itself can be literally understood as ‘congealing light’

keqing (刻晴), as another one of the qixing is known as the yuheng (玉衡) - the brightest star of the seven in the big dipper, alioth. her name has the characters ‘to carve’ (ke) and ‘clear/sunny’ (qing) in them. ke has a few more meanings, for example as a measurement of time by itself + as part of the word ‘immediately’. it can also describe a caustic, blunt person.
