#{{ reveals that he is from Khaenri’ah to the traveler like it’s no big deal }}

[frozenambiguity]

Very long Initial thoughts and first impressions on the Caribert Archon Quest in the tags. Spoiler alert!!

#{{ this is me making a very long tag so that the people who are not interested in reading the spoilers can skip the post safely!! ~~~~~~~ }} #{{ All right!! So the first thing I find fishy in this interaction is the fact that Kaeya just… }} #{{ reveals that he is from Khaenri’ah to the traveler like it’s no big deal }} #{{ Uhm. Huh. I thought that was a secret he was deeply invested in keeping; so things are not exactly adding up here }} #{{ because remember how that was; you know; a thing..? Remember that letter Kaeya saved from the fire }} #{{ that confirmed he was from Khaenri’ah and belonged to the Alberich family? }] #{{ without his father's knowledge and permission; because that information was too highly confidential to NOT remain a secret... }} #{{ and one that he still hides to this day? You know. You remember; right; hyv? come now; it was only a few patches ago. }} #{{ the fact that he revealed it like it was no big deal makes me??? question a lot of the decisions that were made here. }} #{{ Keeping his heritage a secret has been a character motivation for Kaeya. I’m bothered about this decision on hyv’s part; actually }} #{{ not to say that the reveal was never to be done; but it could have been handled properly. }} #{{ and not so casually over some mid afternoon drink time as if it holds no importance whatsoever }} #{{ also this interaction??? A total act. I refuse to believe otherwise }} #{{ 'caring less and less about khaenri'ah?' sir; the guilt and sense of duty/responsibility that consummes you daily says otherwise }} #{{ 'My father left me in Mondstadt simply because he wanted me to have a better life?' huh. perhaps one reason; but not the only one }} #{{ nor THE reason. we have had multiple proof; so this is kaeya lying through his teeth for the sake of alleviating the conversation }} #{{ 'My surname is the only link I have with Khaenri'ah'? Read points mentioned above. Deceit deceit deceit. }} #{{ this entire interaction was a calculated; studied act; and I'm calling it as it is. if hyv intended otherwise --- too bad. }} #{{ because I'm making it my canon. }} #{{ and I truly hope that in hyv canon kaeya is being the 'you can only trust half of what he says' Kaeya; because if hyv is making Kaeya }} #{{ honest in this precise moment.... like if those words are his genuine thoughts from hyv's perspective; then; Kaeya; I'm so sorry }} #{{ but i want to have faith in hoyo; and I want to believe that they haven't forgotten Kaeya as a chara and his motivations }} #{{ and the fact that he was intended to be a khaenri'ah spy in mondstadt. something which generated a lot of conflict in his life. }} #{{ so don't @ me w/ 'oh yeah; I don't have any link or interest in khaenri'ah whatsoever haha khaenri'ah what is that?? never heard of it } #{{ anyway. Interesting to see it confirmed that Kaeya and Dain do not know each other formally; but that Dain has been spying on Kaeya }} #{{ and does not trust him. interesting dynamic. obviously kaeya didn't like having been studied and observed }} #{{ Kaeya being the Abyss Order Founder's descendant? Honestly; not surprising!! I had my suspicions. }} #{{ the clues were always there. 'heart of the abyss'. A heart is a vital part for any organism and by extent institution to function }} #{{ and so; too; is Kaeya a vital part of the abyss scheme; regardless of whether he wants to or not }} #{{ and there were other signs of it too. He has been seen communicating with them multiple times. recall diluc's introduction. }}

The wedding dates was so original and fun! Ty for blessing my dash. It was really great. If I may ask, what about the Genshin guys with the Island adventure? How would they like the domains? The Fatui run ins? Do they know Alice? Beach vibes, even?

My bad if this isn’t what you asked for but it’s how I interpreted your ask ahahaha :’)

So we know the domains are based on the character’s most vulnerable moments right

ayato and itto are both pretty well adjusted and have both come to terms with their past so they see their struggles as something they’re proud of having overcome. i’m going to throw diluc in this category as well based on his recent event; when you finish his domain he takes it in an “it is what it is” kind of way

I really want ayato’s domain to mirror kazuha’s. personally I think it’s very poetic, two noble houses that fell from grace together; and while one further descends, the other rises to the top

I think thoma still has some unresolved trauma he tries to hide like his survivor’s guilt or how he never found his dad so he’d be hesitant

making xiao go through his most vulnerable moments right after perilous trail??? plssss give this man a break 😭

kaeya would love going into other people’s domains but his own? it’s a naur from him. his domain would be the prettiest though bc omg khaenri’ah reveal?

childe would like play it off like it’s no big deal “aw are you worried about me” and then it’s the most traumatic thing you’ve ever witnessed (just abyss things <3)

good luck to zhongli if he’s with people who don’t know he’s a literal god 😃👍

on a more serious note though any of the archon mirages would be insane. so much loss. zhongli’s mellowed out quite a bit so he’d be hesitant to show others all the violence and loss he’s endured

also the way each mirage is super personal but you have to go through it with a group of people LOL zero boundaries, we’re jumping right to lvl 10 friendship

pls diluc is a known menace to the fatui. this man is banned from snezhnaya. how would he react? it’s on sight, time for retri-

jk he can be convinced to help but very begrudgingly. everyone else would be a little more willing but kaeya, ayato, zhongli, and xiao I see being very wary especially upon finding out the truth of the device. childe secretly loves their family dynamic but won’t show it because he has a harbinger reputation to uphold

I think all the mondstadt men canonically know alice. I’m pretty sure everyone else also at least knows of her since she’s a famous adventurer and wrote teyvat travel guide. zhongli has definitely had a few run-ins

she’s probably been arrested before by the tenryou commission and itto was her jail buddy

random beach headcanon; childe burns in the sun but diluc tans. come on he’s out in the fields picking grapes mwah sun kissed king
