Them with a reader that worships another Archon
characters: Venti / Zhongli / Ei / Furina x gn!reader (separate)
warnings: none
a/n: Didn't write for Ei in a long time... not to mention Zhongli and Venti, so if I got some of their personality traits wrong, I'm sorry.
Anyway, hope you enjoy!
Venti 
“Let’s hope you’re not made out of sugar, or else we’re gonna have a tiny problem”, the Bard joked once he took a glance out of the window, the heavy rain and thunder that had come seemingly out of nowhere difficult to notice, even for the drunken inhabitants of Angel’s Share.
“Rain’s a nuisance at best, I’ll be fine”, your response lacked any signs of the usual annoyance people would feel in this situation, whether it was the alcohol or your attitude towards rain that made you seem almost relaxed was up for debate however.
Just as the words had left your mouth, a giant lightning caused the room to light up, soon followed by a deafening thunder, earning you a grin that spoke more than a thousand words. “Still only a nuisance?”
“Sure, the Raiden Shogun will protect me from the lightning”, came your dry response, causing the bard’s ears to perk up. Truth be told, he couldn’t care less about whatever god you were worshiping, forcing people’s hands or getting grumpy over their decisions was hardly the God of Freedom’s modus operandi. Although this did open up a whole new conversation topic.
“Want me to pass your mighty Raiden Shogun a message the next time I see her?”, Venti offered with a smirk, drawing a laugh out of you almost instantly.
“Yeah, sure Venti. I have no doubt you’d be able to play your way into an audience with her, especially since the last time you stepped foot into Inazuma went so swimmingly”, you jokingly responded, waving goodbye before readying yourself to run back home through the rain.
Zhongli
There was neither law nor contract that obliged the citizens of Liyue to worship Rex Lapis. Sure, the Archon might have been the city's patron god and had descended each year to give instructions and advice, but who’s name spilled out of its citizens' lips during their prayer was none of Zhongli’s business. 
And yet, when he heard a particular name slip out of your mouth, the Archon couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows for the briefest of moments.
“Thank Barbatos, I was starting to think I’d never find it”, you let out a relieved sigh once your eyes finally spotted the pin on the floor, glistening as if it was calling out for its owner before quickly finding itself stuck onto your coat once again, your lips forming a small smile.
“Hmm? Is something the matter?”, you once again turned towards Zhongli, not missing the conflicted expression that had since long been replaced by his usual smile.
“Not at all. I was simply surprised for a moment, Barbatos Worshippers in Liyue are pretty scarce after all, although there’s certainly nothing wrong with having another Archon as one’s Deity.” His explanation was enough to satisfy you, as your conversation quickly shifted back to the previous topic. And yet the scene remained on his mind for quite a while.
Let’s hope you and your god’s paths never converged… for your faith’s sake.
Ei
Hearing you mumble another Archon’s name in your brief prayer before eating caused Ei’s hand to freeze just close to her mouth, leaving the small sweet hovering in front of her face as her eyes remained fixed on you, the silence gradually causing your face to turn all shades of red as you tried to hide your tenseness behind a polite smile.
“I didn’t know you worshiped Rex Lapis”, Ei stated, her tone coming out more accusatory than she ever intended, causing a small apology to follow shortly after, bringing the tension of the room down significantly. 
Humans were entitled to their own decisions, and yet hearing you worship another god left a… bitter taste in her mouth. Especially since she wasn’t sure whether or not it had to do with her or was totally unrelated, the thought that you liked another Archon more than her filling her with jealousy, no matter how ridiculous she knew the whole situation to be.
“My family originally came from Liyue, so praying to Rex Lapis before meals is somewhat of a tradition for me… even if I don’t worship him on many other occasions”, you explained sincerely, remembering scenes of sharing meals with your family as a small smile made its way onto your face.
Whether it was because of your explanation or the gentle expression on your face, but whatever semblance of jealousy Ei felt within her swiftly melted away, her shoulders relaxing before she finally took a bite of the food in front of her, the corners of her lips rising when you did the same.
Furina
Truth be told, when Furina heard another Archon’s name come out of your mouth she felt a wave of relief wash over her. The last thing she wanted was for you to put her on a pedestal, no matter how attention-seeking she could be from time to time. And while she couldn’t blame those still seeing her as their Archon, considering how she had played the role for generations, she wished for your relationship to be one of equals instead of a god and her worshiper.
“Ah, I guess praying to another Archon in front of a former one is a bit rude. I’m sorry-”, you rushed to form an apology once you noticed Furina’s silence, your face growing red in embarrassment and shame before being cut off by her.
“It’s fine, I’m not as vain as to feel slighted by such a non-issue”, she lifted her hand before waving you off, a smirk on her lips as she thought of what to say next. “I am no longer an Archon after all, so having people worship the grass the Archon ‘Focalors’ walks on would only serve as a distraction from how mesmerizing the great Furina is.”
A chuckle from you was all it took to bring her back down from her ego-trip, your smile quickly spreading over to her, and before she knew it, she was snickering herself.
“Alright, let’s get the great Furina a dessert as reward for her inexhaustible modesty.”

Day Two
❦𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝑪𝒉𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒎𝒂𝒔?❦
Game: Genshin Impact
Prompt: Your lover has locked herself away for 500 years and now that she's out, she's missed out on one of the most biggest holiday each year.
Warnings: None
Reader is the eldest of the Kamisato siblings
Tumblr media
"Ms. Kamisato, the preparations for the Christmas party you asked for have set. Would you like to take a look at it?" You rose your head from the pile of paperwork on your desk and greeted to awaiting woman with a smile.
"Let Ayato handle that. I'm a bit busy and I have to meet with someone... important." The lady left with a bow and you let out a tired sigh. Once again, Christmas is back and it's your job to ensure that Inazuma has the best Christmas as usual but this year things will be a bit different since Ei had finally decided to come out of her shell... Will she know what Christmas is?
You practically sprang out of your seat when you saw the clock strike 6 am. You had a meeting with Gujii Yae and you didn't wanna be late. Upon arriving at the Shrine, you were greeted with dazzling lights hooked on the sakura blossoms, a big Christmas tree in the middle of the Shrine. As you looked around, mesmerised by the pretty scene, you heard a faint chuckle behind you. "Once again you're in awe at my decorations~"
"L-lady Yae! I-It looks beautiful as usual! You never fail impress."
"Of course not. I am 'The Yae Miko' after all. Do I ever fail to impress?~"
She led you into the small cabin as tea was already poured out and waiting. "I trust that you've told Ei about this joyful holiday right?"
"Umm... about that... I haven't had the time to see Ei. Its been a busy week so I haven't spoken to her as yet." You fidgeted with the tea cup infront of you which made Yae instantly raise an eyebrow.
"Is something else bothering you, dearest?"
"N-no! I-uh... no everything's alright."
She didn't buy that lie, however, she didn't press further on it. The two of you discussed events planned out for Christmas and the meeting took almost the entire day. By the time you were getting ready to leave, an unexpected person showed up.
"Will any of you care to explain the deal with all these lights and decorating?" You joyfully turned around upon hearing the voice of your beloved.
"Ei! I was just about to come see you." Ei smiled and opened her arms for a hug to which you immediately ran in. She pecked your lips oh so softly before returning her gaze to Yae.
"Are you behind all of this?" Ei motioned to the beautifully decorated shrine. Yae just smiled and shrugged before leaving you.
With one last look around, your lover snapped her attention back to you. "Why don't we take a walk around and I'll explain."
With your hands interwined, the two of you took a walk around Inazuma, greeting local citizens as they call out wonderful praises to you both. "What is this 'Christmas' that everyone has been gushing about? Is it something to eat?"
You let out a small chuckle at her adorable innocence, "No my love, Christmas is a holiday. While you were locked away for 500 years, I did a bit of research because I wanted the people of Inazuma to have something to look forward to. With the help of Yae, the traveler and my siblings, I stumbled upon the holiday of Christmas. It happens every year end, close to the new year. These decorations and colorful lights are what bring out the Christmas spirit..." you stopped at the large Christmas tree implanted in the center of the city.
Ei was mesmerised at how pretty the tree looked and as the lights reflected in her eyes, you couldn't help but stare and admire her beauty. "Staring is considered rather rude, love."
"I'm not staring. I'm admiring. There's a difference."
"Oh you and your silly comebacks... you have done a wonderful thing for Inazuma, having introduced this holiday to the people."
"Thank you. It's a beautiful holiday."
"Do people bake sweets to celebrate as well?"
Ei looked rather adorable with her slightly pouty lips. "Of course my love. I'll get you some after... you give me a kiss."
"In public?" She blushed.
You smirked before stealing a small peck before running away.
"Hey! Get back here!"
The two mightiest beings of Inazuma were chasing each other because of a kiss. You both looked incredibly childish but none of you cared as the only thing that mattered was the love that existed for each other.

ꕥ Genshin Impact ꕥ boyfriend headcanons, Inazuma edition~ part two.
Tumblr media
Firstly, why is Itto so pretty in this gif???
Who gave this man the right?????
Secondly, thank you all for 100 followers!!! I honestly didn’t think anyone would really like my writing but knowing that you do makes it even more fun! And ya’ll are all so nice too like I don’t deserve this what T-T
Summary: literally the title.
Warnings: fluff, maybe a lil’ suggestive??, swearing, established relationship, Gn!reader, not proof-read.
Characters: Itto, Ayato, Gorou. (I’m classing scara (aka, wanderer) as a Sumeru citizen now since he’s a new, good boy! What i still wouldn’t give for him to crush me)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Itto~
God bless this man.
He’s so precious.
He openly adores everything you do.
Walked up a bunch of stairs without dying?
You can bet your sweet buns that this man is going to be awe struck.
He’s very strong and even though he acts like a himbo, he’s still got his head in a good place (kinda)
(He’s a complete fucking idiot)
But he is the definition of a golden retriever boyfriend!
Give him head pats and tell him he’s a good boy and he’s mush in your arms!
Boy will go all out on dates hsiduxid
Most of the time they don’t go as planned but you can’t even get mad when he still somehow manages to pull a successful “plan numero two-o” out of nowhere.
Kuki has become his go-to advisor for romance!
She doesn’t know much bless her but she knows more than him jdjdjdhdurj
Man doesn’t get jealous.
He’s too oblivious-
If someone starts flirting with you he’ll probably just join in.
“You think they’re great too?? What am I saying, of course you do! How could you not think that they’re the coolest, most awesomest partner ever!”
Bless his heart I love him T-T
He lets you polish his horns-
He lets you polish his horns.
It might not seem like much but he’s so proud of them that it’s a literal honour-
Loves it when you pet them too or put little jewellery around them!
Honestly I think he’s a really good kisser.
Don’t ask why but he just gives off that vibe.
He’s also been roping you into beetle fights.
Which he totally wins every time!
He doesn’t. You let him win occasionally.
He once found a super cool looking beetle and named it after you!!
He always makes sure to take extra good care of it just because of that.
Tumblr media
Ayato~
Imma be honest, if I see this man pull boba out of his arm one more time and make that slurp I might lose it-
I’m not too familiar with his character but my best friend has a intense crush on him so i will get scolded if I make this is too inaccurate.
I know this sounds absurd but istg I will bet everything that this man has social anxiety.
I can smell my people.
He’s just really good at hiding it with his duties!
And you’re the only one who gets to see that side of him because he trusts you more than anyone T-T
Man is extremely busy so dates are rare but he still somehow manages to make time!
A privilege that’s only shared with Ayaka who absolutely adores you!!
She also absolutely wasn’t a little jealous of her brother hdbfhdj
He adores the little things you do!
Like, absolutely worships them!
If you decided to make him the ugliest drawing known to man kind he will frame it and look at it at least twice a day.
He taught you to play chess and much to thoma’s dismay, he taught you extremely well.
Poor boy hasn’t won in months.
Always offers you a taste of his magical sleeve boba!
How it stays fresh, no one knows.
He’s an absolute gentleman!
Hand kisses whenever he greets you, without fail!
Always insist on getting you little trinkets or jewellery!
He thinks you deserve it ok, just accept it-
Always talks about you to thoma and Ayaka!
He wants to make sure you know how much he loves you!!
He is a little possessive over you-
He means no harm by it but he can’t help his sly, mischievous side show a little bit.
“Come now, is that really any way to talk to my future spouse? Hm? Yes I did call you that, do you object, dearest~?”
Just cuts into the conversation with the offending person and grabs you by the waist with zero shame-
Do it back-
It’ll shut him up really quick~
Tumblr media
Gorou~
Just like Ayato, I’m not super familiar with his personality hngggg.
Let’s get it out the way, shall we?
Tail.
Ears.
I NEED TO PET HIM!!!!!!
And lucky you!
You get to pet him!!
Yes he allows you to touch the ears.
Maybe be careful with the tail though cough cough
He whimpers
Beach dates aaaAAAA!
He’s constantly in work mode but he does his best to relax!
He loves making seashell necklaces with you and just taking walks together while talking!
Poor boy gets very flustered very easily.
He knows his tail gives off his emotions way too easily and you’re always super quick to tease him about it.
Evil.
He’s a thigh person and you can’t convince me otherwise.
Let him lay in your lap, please.
He’s also super ticklish-
Don’t ask, he just looks the type.
He can’t help but melt into a flustered mess whenever you’re around!
Which of course he gets teased for mercilessly by the rest of the soldiers.
But saying that, he will never be embarrassed by admitting he loves you!
He believes strongly in being open about how you feel.
Always brings you freshly picked flowers whenever you meet up!
He is really strong though, don’t be fooled by his fluff.
One of the reasons he loves you so much is because you never see him as just a pet.
He also asks you to study with him when kokomi lets him read her books!
You’d be amazed by how focused this man can get when in serious mode istg not even a earthquake could shake him.
“Huh? I love you but come on, do I really have to remind you again? It’s vital that we always keep our minds sharp even if there’s no visible threat! Leave the poor lizards alone-”
His patience with you is incredible.
He doesn’t get jealous easily but he does get a little insecure sometimes!
He’ll never cause a scene with it but he will be open with how he feels.
He hates the idea of arguing so he’ll always bring it up in a polite way!
He’s always super respectful of you and will quickly scold anyone who acts differently~
He’s a very good and very precious baby~
Tumblr media
IM ALIVE!!! Well, kinda. I’m back at home but I got a lot of recovery to do and when I tell ya’ll that it is frUSTRATING! So writing is a good distraction!
I’m still gonna be taking my time though since my energy is completely gone not to mention I’m not allowed to get too excited since it raises my heart rate so the genshin men might actually end up killing me gdjsgHDJSH
Not that I’d mind either-

• Farewell •
An one-shot about a lost journey to freedom.
Characters: Kaedehara Kazuha x Fem!Reader x Tomo
TW: Angst, platonic relationship, death mentions, pregnancy mentions, miscarriage mentions, sensitive topics overall.
Author's notes: This short story may contain major spoilers from the Inazuma Arc of the game. Read responsibly and enjoy.
Tumblr media
The Vision Hunt Decree had became more dreadful by that time.
The vision holders lived now under constant danger and terror, hoping that the future wouldn't be so cruel with them as it had been with other Inazuma citizens.
Three people had their destiny intertwined around the same ambition: the possibility of being free once again.
What Tomo, Kazuha and you didn't know was that the end of your journey would be so ruthless with you.
♡( ◡‿◡ )
Their conversation that night made Kazuha feel completely weak and helpless.
"Tomo! You shouldn't say such things..." Kazuha's eyes were teary and his throat was bothered and tight. "We still have so much to live! We always fought for freedom, right?"
"I can’t help but try and be logical, Kazuha. We three are vision holders and the Shogun Raiden's persecution will soon have us as their next aim. Day after day we loose something important to the Archon of this land and I can't risk loosing her... I would never forgive myself if I knew something happened to (Name). So please, Kazuha... If one day I'm not here any longer, take care of her for me"
"Tomo... You are not planning to do anything... Right?!" The samurai almost screamed at his friend.
"She's nurturing a life inside her womb, Kazuha. I will sacrifice my life if that means they'll be fine by your side"
Those news hit Kazuha with harshness.
Feelings such as happiness soaked with jealousy and worry clouded his mind.
Finally, his lips twitched in anger before he answered Tomo.
"You... You got her pregnant, afterall"
"I'm aware of your feelings towards her" Tomo said patiently, leaning his right hand on his friend's shoulder. "That's why I'm asking for you to keep protecting her the day I'm not by her side any longer"
Kazuha didn't want to accept the insane idea of Tomo's sacrifice nor he had the guts to deny anything that his best friend was pleading him.
Kaedehara didn't answer anything more.
He just nodded.
And that was the confirmation that Tomo needed to finish his pursuit for freedom.
♡( ◡‿◡ )
Tomo's fears became more real the day that the Raiden Shogun's devilishly desires had you as their aim.
He was brave enough to sacrifice his life in order to make you and your child have the chance to escape the awful ceremony.
Your heart was painfully pounding inside your chest when you saw your lover falling back into Kazuha's arms.
"Save her for me" Were his last words before his lilac eyes closed forever.
You never knew he would do that.
It wasn't like his loss would hurt less if you had known about his plan previously.
Nothing about the Electro Archon's objectives changed with Tomo's sacrifice.
The cruel truth was that he had just lost his life trying to achieve something that probably would never happen.
Freedom was no place to be seen.
♡( ◡‿◡ )
The stress and physical abuse you had faced the day you lost Toma was too much for you to overcome or comprehend.
Escaping day and night from those who wanted you dead by Kazuha's side was enough to make you sick to your stomach. Still, the sadness and agony were stronger.
Sorrow made you confused and guilty to the point your health was by a thread.
And once again, another extremely precious thing was taken away from you.
Some days after your partner's death, a lingering and strong pain was felt by you.
Quickly you were taken to somewhere quiet and private and even if you both were still on the run, medical help was guaranteed for you.
No crying was heard in the room.
Kazuha squeezed your hand trying to hide his panic.
7 months was not enough time to nurture a life.
Both of you knew the ending of that story wouldn't be sweet or happy.
"It's a little girl" The nurse said quietly, her voice was embargoed due to the urge to cry.
The silent baby was put in your arms.
She was gelid, despite the warmth of the room and her countenance was calm.
Your heart sank inside your chest when you noticed the dirty blonde hair your daughter had inherited from her father.
Some tears made your cheeks wet as you kissed her forehead with love.
Kazuha's mouth felt bitter with that sight and the lingering pain he felt inside his heart only got harsher by the time you said softly:
"Tomo was right, afterall... We were expecting a little girl"
The samurai couldn't answer you or comfort you. He was totally broken inside, just like you. It wasn't like he could do much.
Your thumb brushed the soft skin of her cheeks before you whispered your farewell.
"Rest well, my love. May you and your father be reunited in a better place"
♡( ◡‿◡ )
Her grave was settled by the side of Tomo's grave, at Narukami Island.
The lost and damaged vision and your former lover's cat were still there, bringing a melancholic atmosphere to the place.
Kazuha held your body tightly against his own, trying to soothe your pain even if that was not possible. He was determined to create a better future for you both, even if things didn't cooperate with you.
His friend's words kept repeating inside his mind as you both walked away from their resting ambience;
"If one day I'm not here any longer, take care of her for me"

I wanna give my girl Noelle all the love i have sooo-
Imagine the Creator is mortal and all that, then the characters decide to make someone a protector/knight so they could defend the Creator while always by their side (but monsters won’t attack the Creator so mayybe Treasure Horders, Eremite enemies and the ronins in Inazuma). Of course, every character wants to be the protector of the Creator to be always with them, so to not start a civil war or something the Creator decides that they will be choosing the protector. And who gets to have the title of “Knight of the Creator/Divine”? Noelle! She’s the best pick! A knight, maid and a sweet girl in one person! I’d imagine her nearly fainting but holding herself from it bc HOLY SHIT THE CREATOR ITSELF CHOSE HER AS THEIR KNIGHT-
She would be so anxious of not doing a good job but the Creator reassures her that hey, you can do it! Every single citizen of Mondstadt has said that you’re the most reliable person ever and i do too! Poor girl would be such a blushing mess, but also a fierce knight. Your rosey knight in shining armor! <3
On the flip side, i’d imagine some archons or vision holders seething and malding while others would try to make you change your decision like “Your Grace, I’m sure you chose Noelle to take pity on her attempts at becoming a knight because of her amazing skills as both a knight and a maid but…there are more officially qualified people who could accompany you-“. And in my opinion, Zhongli and Venti may just feel a bit jealous but both would be proud of her being chosen because (Zhongli) She’s a Geo user (Venti) She’s a child of Mondstadt. Jean would probably disregard her envy to be happy for Noelle :,) and maybe whisper you to remind Noelle not to overwork
you’re so right actually, noelle best girl
she’d be incredibly proud that she was chosen as your defender, and would take her job very seriously! naturally, she can no longer work for the knights, and her schedule will have to change to accommodate her new duties, but that’s okay! she doesn’t mind, really; it’s an honor to serve, and she’ll do her very best!
that being said… yeah the archons aren’t having it-
zhongli’s shield is so much better! he’s an archon, able to command literal tons of geo at a time to keep you safe. and he has the entirety of the adepti at his disposal, so you’d be the safest possible within liyue’s borders. can’t you see he’s so much better? can’t you see you should just stay with him?
venti’s also quite pissed, frankly. yes, many think of him as another drunkard, but you know what he’s capable of! you know he can wield anemo with precision, you know he can summon vortexes to delay any enemies and lift you up and out of dangerous situations with ease. he’s an excellent glider, you know, and is able to get you out of danger much quicker.
why not them? why noelle?

[ COMFORT ]
Kissing prompts
Tumblr media
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Rarely does the shogun humor festivals anymore. As much as she adores seeing the burst of colors in the sky from the fireworks but it's a fleeting spectacle and flash of an old memory clouding the beauty. Though she was invited to the Otsukimi festival, more peaceful and had fewer fireworks — a moment to wish for another perfect harvest in the coming year.
She looks down at her heavier garments to keep her warm in more frigid weather and take over. Hopefully, she wasn't overdressed with this kimono — she hasn't touched it in decades or so! Ei’s mind wanders a bit while she brushes through her hair and later ties it up with her hairpin. Well, she was ready to see her companion for the festival! Inazuma was beautiful under the night sky — the lanterns will guide them through what the citizens had in store.
Ei stood close by the retainer while they look around the city’s streets. First trying, tsukimi dango since the shogun didn’t make it subtle at all from her staring — they resemble so much as the moon! The more autumnal ingredients simply steamed to enhance their natural flavour. Not the same as their sweeter counterpart but still delicious. She seems to enjoy the mooncakes more.
Thoma wanted to challenge her at who can finish the notorious boiling hot ramen test. During the Japanese Moon Festival, people tend to crack a raw egg into a bowl of soba or udon noodles and boiling-hot broth, just like the Tokushima Ramen! To much a surprise to see that the Almighty shogun won the challenge and patted the loser’s back while he recovers after the broth. Ei tried her best not to laugh though for good sportsmanship.
After the food and watching a traditional dance performance by the shrine, the two settle down on top of Tenshukaku’s roof to see the full moon better. Ei looked a bit excited before the flash of an old memory struck causing her to clench her fist and look down immediately.
Warmth started to creep up making her look over and see the retainer’s hand on top of her and his thumb rubbing against the tensed flesh to ease her. He leans in closer and presses a kiss on her forehead causing her to be stunned for a moment. Sweet words to comfort her soon after — while the shogun’s ears still rang.
Tumblr media
Her face shifted to deep crimson and touch the spot he kissed. He was soothing her so why is her heart going crazy-? She shakes off the feeling and smiles and cups his cheek.
“ Thank you but you still smell like ramen broth~ ”
Ei teased and sneaks it a soft peck on the cheek as a thank you.

aether hcs for a fic
Tumblr media
note: this has personally been in my mind for awhile and while I deal with not writing this fic for awhile since I’m busy with other fics, I thought of dropping some bread crumbs for this 😩 I’m sorry I’m so inactive buttercups. THIS WILL BE THE BEST I CAN GIVE FOR NOW 😭 🤧 🤚
SO SPOILERS FOR THE ARCHON QUEST Ch IV: We will be Reunited
It’s canon divergence for this fic as instead of Aether leaving the ruins and just being a mourning confused sweetheart, he goes detective mode 🕵️‍♂️
but since he’s so recognizable with his foreign getup and gigantic reputation in Teyvat, he goes undercover (no this will not be a spy au- or at least I’ll try not to make it a spy one😭 )
His undercover involves cross dressing because I just really want to make a pretty aether who defies gender norms 💅🏻
His fit is basically a whole ass traditional esque Liyue or Inazuma inspired depending on how far the divergence I want to make this (I’m pretty sure I’ll try to mix his whole traditional female fit with a variety and not just one culture👏 )
HIS HAIRRR!!! since they don’t have colored contacts (in their timeline so far anyways) his eyes would be pretty recognizable bc he’s very distinct!! Very otherworldly our sweet charming Aether! so he does the next best thing and it’s HAIR COLOR!! 💇‍♀️
Hair dye doesn’t exist during the time where the countries we’ve been in were inspired from so he changes his hair color via natural environmental things like the ancient civilizations!
Anyways, Aether has light colored hair which is also very distinct since there’s not really a color like that in Teyvat (IN MY FIC OFC 😩 🤚) and with his very distinct features he really needs to hide it so his chances of being found are slimmer
BUTTT!!! as I’ve said before he can’t change his eye color with fakes so he has to hide his other most distinguishable feature!
HES GOING TO WEAR MAKE UP 👏 🙌 like the pretty eyeliners Xiao and Zhongli got going on but red and very hmm, sexy?? No no, feminine ish?? it’s hard to describe so I’ll find a reference picture of a character’s make up later and post it!!
BUT HIS HAIRSTYLE IS GONNA BE LIKE THOSE KOREAN DRAMA UHH ROYAL ONES like the little low bun with a hair pin stuck there??? god help me it’d look so good!! (I’ll try to share some art that I’m trying to draw to give me some inspiration for more!!)
besides his looks (bc my mind has been on that for so long) this will be based on after a week after running into Lumine
BUT DURING THAT WEEK HES PREPPING!
Paimon is very against this undercover thing but she lets him be solely bc Aether looks so determined and she thinks that’s better than a mourning and gloomy aether
aether doesn’t tell anyone else about his planning but barely anyone sees him during his prep week and even then it looks like he’s in a rush so ppl barely have time to talk to him
so the day he goes “missing,” or when he blends in as a citizen and starting his undercover thing he’s got going on, everyone is like: !!! where frend?!?!
It isn’t super obvious that he’s gone missing, or as they thought, since they won’t notice until a week or two bc they know he travels a lot and is super busy esp recent days but when no one hears a whisper in the wind or any commissions that Aether usually takes disappear then alarm bells start ringing
obv they can’t just abandon posts but there’s ears out and they’re super worried 😔
Xiao is very concerned and is always up and about either searching or is up on the balcony or at the highest mountain tops just watching for a hint of his existence (he even thought about heading to monstadt to look) 🏔
Zhongli Xiansheng IS VERY CONCERNED 🍵 even if he’s just so out of it while doing paperwork during his work hours, often contemplating about any signs or anything relating about the resident outlander
Childe well,,,, 👺 he’s in Snezhnaya first and foremost and doesn’t hear anything until a week or two (3-4 weeks after ppl notice he’s gone) before he’s set to return back to his post in Liyue. Even if Childe is fatui and is very well informed, he was busy with family and just a LOT of paperwork bc u can’t tell me being a harbinger that’s out on expeditions isn’t a lot of paperwork and meetings and a whole bunch of shit 🗿
Xinyan, Xiangling, Chongyun and Xingqiu are conspiring with one another there’s not much else to say than that. They’re just there making theories and sometimes acting on them as they eat in the confines of the Guhua clan’s residence or at Wangmin’s
The Qixing are very sneaky but very worried, they can’t extend much of their resources to search for him even if they owe a lot and have formed attachment bc they have duties and Liyue comes before that
Their spy network doe is very dry since there’s no information flowing in about traveler and it frustrates them very much!! Ganyu as cute and busy as she is, is even more concerned and a workaholic cause she needs to get her mind off of it before she stresses even more in worrying 😓
THE MONSTADT TEAM!!!
Knights of favonius you already know 🙌
Jean is concerned and often when on break contemplates out looking out in the window wondering where or how he’s gone (don’t tell anyone but she’s spending her free time looking for clues and reading up on things! Lisa helps doe, they’re seen almost all the time together just reading books and talking quietly as they bounced ideas and concerns with one another)
Kaeya is already hand in hand with his sus friends that which are his spies 🥴🤪😼 but things are also not popping up and he’s just yknow.... nothing on his hands 🤷‍♀️ he is actually more productive in his work than procrastinating on it bc he needs brain juice working and when he finishes it his mind can just go around like a hamster ball as he thinks about the situation
Diluc with his network of information is also left with nothing tangible to grasp that would help with finding Aether or Paimon and he is frustrated even if he doesn’t show it. He’s all grumpy and is more prone to take up his stand at the bar hoping to gain information from any blabbers but it’s fruitless 👊 😔 his night patrols are quiet most of the time so most nights he spends time thinking about it or searching for Aether!! or as much as he can anyway
KLEE!! 😭 🤧 is super worried, comes out of solitary confinement only to see everyone busy and serious faced and she’s so confused like ??? So when she asks everyone just looks solemn or puts on a smile to tell her everything is fine or they’re busy or a case came up but she finds out after Aether isn’t there for his roundly baby sitting to take her to places to fish bombing and when she asks Albedo she finds out that way too
Albedo is... quiet, tries researching and consulting the books of alchemy that would help with tracking someone down but it can’t really do much. He tries to attend more meetings now to see if there’s anymore information they learned or gain but is ultimately disappointed when none are given. It’s hard taking care of a sad Klee when he’s also worried (so they’re just a ball of cute sadness)
Sucrose and Noelle hang in the library just looking for ways to help or researching as well as tracking Aether’s steps!! They bond though, and they run into Amber and Eula who are also in conversations with one another trading ideas with one another on their theories and ideas. They’re super concerned and Amber is this close 🤏 to cry and yell bc she remembers her first day with Aether and she just wants him to be okay 🥺
Venti 🧐 is basically just tiring himself out as he no longer has a gnosis to boost his OG elemental powers so he’s just tired as he’s consistently using and expanding his powers far more than the limit he should pass. Dvalin has tried to get him to rest but this shit ain’t working. Windrise is not doing wonders rn 😫 🤚 if anything it makes him more determined and more pushy with himself to just do more bc it reminds him of Aether.
Mona tries to scry but its fruitless and she goes even more broke bc she’s using resources to find any possible way to help enhance her Hydromancy to help find Aether (all she knows is he’s alive bc his constellations still reside in the sky) she does get frustrated and tends to have all nighters once in awhile in her determination to just FIND
The Adventurers are just clueless and try to do the commission Aether normally does thinking he may show up there or have left signs, they ask ppl they meet to see if they’ve seen him and even rope in Razor to help them search in the wild throes of Teyvat (it’s not very fruitful)
Anyways before I basically just spoil my whole Fic plot line 👩🏻‍🦽🙎🏻‍♀️🧍‍♀️🧎‍♀️
BASICALLY THEY WILL MEET AETHER AGAIN!! and how?? Well, when I actually write this fic you’ll know 🥴💁🏻‍♀️

Notes: Part 1
Masterlist
Chapter 2
At the barracks’ canteen reigns the unspoken rule that no one is allowed to cook borsch, and trying to do so is punished by cleaning all windows with cold water only in the middle of the night. Can’t see anything because the nights at the outskirts of Zapolyarny are blacker than out in the taiga? Tough luck. There are so many different recipes as there are families out there, and everyone has their very own way to make it. Fatui agents have brought each other to the hospital wing over fighting which recipe is the best, therefore a couple of years before Tartaglia and you enrolled, this rule was established.
Sitting out in the cold of Jaroslawk at four in the morning, you’d kill for a hot bowl of your mamochka’s borsch—the best in Morepesok even though Tartaglia begs to differ, but the only problem with his claim is that he is fucking wrong.
Through your binoculars you see everything is quiet and dark on the other side of the compound, which is a good sign. Unfortunately, good also means very boring. You’ve been lying in the exact same position for nearly three hours now: on your belly, elbows slightly propping your upper body to see the Baron’s estate that’s embraced by a forest like a mother cradling its child. Tales have it if you make even one little mistake inside those cold brick walls, Baron Igor would personally see to it that you don’t leave these woods alive and whatever his hellish guard dogs don’t finish eating up, his servants would send to your family as a small parting gift and warning to get as far and fast away as possible.
If only he were as thorough covering his tracks as he is scaring people, but Baron Igor has never really excelled at multiple things and now, months after the first little bird brought some interesting insight, you can’t wait for Baron Igor to finally slip and confirm the rumours about him selling information on one of Il Dottore’s gun research labs to a spy from Sumeru. Intel has it exchanges usually occur once every full moon and with the orb now hidden behind thick, black clouds, this is the last chance to get some evidence before the ship leaving to Sumeru carries whoever deserves a knife in their windpipe back to their God of Wisdom.
Baron Igor has messed up, got too arrogant, and now you and your team are here to make sure he eats up his mess. It wasn’t easy to infiltrate his mansion. Mitsuki only passed because you took out two of the other contesters for one of the Baron’s favourite restaurants down in Nowobirsk. That man bows to greed and when introduced to the place’s new maître d’hôtel—the best of his kind, the most exotic to own during their flimsy ceasefire with Inazuma—Baron Igor acted swiftly and hired him. Mitsuki had gagged at those words while lieutenant Scaramouche had shown the patience of a man barely holding himself back from violence. Two days later, Mitsuki took his position as spy and head waiter of the Baron’s personal restaurant taking up the whole second floor in the right wing of his stone mansion.
“Fuck me, I look like a penguin,” Mitsuki had said on the night before his work began at the estate, glaring at himself in the mirror dressed in a sharply tailored tuxedo.
“Then we know who to call if Baron Igor decides to open a zoo,” Mikhail had said, but he was in no hurry to turn away his appreciative gaze from how tight Mitsuki’s black pants tugged his slim legs and ass.
That’s the team, Mitsuki, you and Mikhail—Lock, Shock and Barrel, one of your fellow division’s comrade likes to call you for unknown reasons, simply laughing to himself and shaking his head as if trying to get rid of a good memory. Though for all that Scaramouche is concerned, to him you’re triple double and a clusterfuck he doesn’t want anywhere near him or so help him Her Majesty the Tsaritsa, he’ll stake your heads and scatter your remains to the seagulls terrorising the coast of Port Odessa.
“He loves us,” Mikhail likes to joke, even though you aren’t sure the words love and Scaramouche should be used in one sentence.
“One day, he’ll kill one of us with his bear hands and feel nothing,” Mitsuki commonly remarks, sounding like whatever you’d do to receive such a punishment is probably ghastly enough to justify being murdered.
“His hat is pretty neat,” is usually your only contribution and they both look at you as if you’re crazy.
“Any movement?” a voice asks from your right. Mikhail shakes still fresh snow from his head and shoulders as he dugs under the narrow doorway, looking like a puppy trying to shake itself dry. Now that a year has passed since a Geo Vision user crushed his right arm and healers had to amputate it to save his life, he’s adapted pretty well to only one arm and hand at his disposal. He’s balancing a cup in his palm while holding two paper bags with his fingers and somehow makes it look easy. He rejoins you at the window, carefully placing the steaming cup and one bag in front of you. You hand him your binoculars so he can see for himself, and inspect your breakfast. “Do I even want to know where you found,” you peak inside the bag, “pirozhky at a time like this?”
“Couple of blocks down there’s this place. Really nice lady, gave me one for free and added a little extra to our coffee.”
You take a sip, and instantly begin coughing and pounding your chest as it goes down burning. “Archons, that’s disgusting. Who in their right mind puts Fire-Water in their coffee?”
“I know, right?” Mikhail beams. “It’s genius.”
It’s ghastly. You take another sip. Horrible, really. But it keeps you warm and awake. So maybe it isn’t that bad at all.
While Mikhail observes the area, you dig into your beef and onion pirozhky. There’s nothing fun about pulling an all-nighter but sometimes sharing a cup of coffee and eating warm food helps to get through them. Also knowing someone suffers with you. Sharing pain is gain, after all.
“Well, they sure like taking their sweet time,” Mikhail mumbles, getting a little more comfortable on the cold stone ground. He puts the binoculars away and digs into his own food. “What are we gonna do if nothing happens today?”
“Then we’ll come back next month and do it all over again.” Hopefully you don’t have to. Fyrva’snezh was two weeks ago but this winter started off particularly brutal. Two out of three units are still missing from their outskirts training and you don’t want to be in the poor lasses’ and lads’ shoes who are still at the infirmary recovering from severe hypothermia. “What worries me more is that Mitsuki might lose his sanity if he stays there another whole month.”
“Well, what doesn’t kill him makes him stronger,” Mikhail says, wiping his greasy fingers off his pants. “I just want to wipe that smug smirk off the Baron’s pig face.”
He and probably every citizen populating Jaroslawk. “Once Mitsuki locates the communication point, we’ll go in and neutralise the target if we can’t catch him alive,” you say. “Baron Igor will try and weasel his way out of it but so far all evidence stands against him. The rest is up to Her Majesty.” And the Tsaritsa is known for many things, but mercy isn’t one of them. That will show anyone else trying to make business behind her back.
“Do you really think Mitsuki will endure another month in that stupidly tight uniform?” Mikhail sounds like he very much wished for another month out in the cold like this if it meant Mitsuki would bless him for a while longer wearing his uniform.
You stretch your leg and kick him in his shin. “Don’t jinx this, Nozhyalensky,” you say. “No matter how good his ass looks in those pants, it isn’t worth freezing your own ass off out in this cold. If we have to extend our mission, I’m going to steal your coat and own it for the whole time.”
“You don’t care if I freeze to death?”
“I really don’t.”
He puts his hand on his heart in mock despair. “That’s harsh.”
It would be his own fault, no hard feelings. You sit in silence, sharing your scalding hot coffee. In the mansion on the other side, a light flickers on in the east wing. Mikhail shifts and makes a disgusted grunt. “I did not want to know the Baron is banging the Duchess of Pavlovich.”
“Might be good leverage in the future.” You quickly dot it down in your notebook, squinting at the barely illuminated page. “Especially if the Duke refuses to pay his taxes again. I’m sure we can get to him through her.”
More minutes pass in silence. Mikhail continues his watch while you start to mindlessly doodle a little Foul Legacy Child in the corner of your page. You wonder what time it is in Liyue. Is Childe also out on a mission or tugged in and sleeping well in a land that knows nothing of harsh winds and freezing nights. Does he spare a thought of home? Is he missing you as much as you miss him or has he already filled the gnawing void with faceless, warm women that comfort him at night?
“Heard anything from our comrades in Liyue?” Mikhail asks nonchalantly, but he’s always been the poorest liar of you three and it’s pretty obvious where this conversation is going. Part of you hungers for that conflict.
“They still can’t find whoever killed the Geo Archon. But Lord Childe might have located the Gnosis and has begun his infiltration.”
Chances are good he might succeed in another month or so, though from the letters you’ve received so far, it sounds like he might succeed fucking the consultant of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor before that. Tartaglia has never started anything serious with guys before, safe from occasionally drunk making outs, but new cultures could change a lot in you and it’s Tartaglia’s first time staying for so long in Liyue and meeting a man like this so called Zhongli.
Mikhail clicks his tongue in disgust. “I can’t believe this guy is over there for three months already and is still nowhere near finishing the job.” He spits at the ground and twists his mouth in a very familiar manner of annoyance—only usually this expression is meant for initiate Fatui members who can’t tell a shotgun from a sniper rifle.
“How can you still be mad at him for handing you your ass three years ago,” you say. A man’s ego is such a frail thing, thank the Tsaritsa for being a strong, independent woman.
“This isn’t about that stupid fight,” Mikhail splutters, red blotches creeping up his neck. His inability to lie is abysmal. “I don’t get how you stand that guy. His arrogance needs its own giant room to fit inside. Someone needs to knock him down a peg or two and maybe beat out this need to whore around as well—”
You move in a flash. Mikhail doesn’t have any time to react before he finds himself on his back, pinned down by your weight with a knife to his throat. “Mikhail, I love you like my own kin and you know I’d take a bullet for you any time,” you growl. “But speak another filthy word about Childe and I will cut off your tongue and feed it to street dogs while watching you bleed out like a slaughtered pig. Are we clear?”
You feel Mikhail’s chest rising and falling under your spread hand, his body warm, proof of his life. How easy it would be to take it from him, to warm the cold, dirty ground with his blood.
Mikhail’s dark eyes don’t give away anything. He’s holding very still, like a cornered animal faced with its hunter; don’t move and maybe it thinks one is dead. Eventually, he says quietly, “If you could see what an unlikeable, unpleasant person he really is, maybe...” He doesn't finish. There is no need to. You know very well what point he’s trying to make.
“I don’t need your supervision,” you say. “Or your pity.”
Mikhail barks a loud, humourless laugh. “Lassie, if I had an ounce of pity left for anyone else than myself, I wouldn’t be very good at this job, would I?”
You shift your weight. Mikhail groans as you put pressure on a wound a Pyro Vision user inflicted on him a week ago that hasn’t fully healed yet—a favour for Mikhail to prevent him from following his train of thought. You don’t know what is worse: His unrequited love for Mitsuki or Tartaglia and you knowing what you both want but can’t have.
Mikhail quietly says your name and gently lowers your hand. The sharp knife has bit into his skin just enough to leave a fine, red line on his throat. “All I’m saying is, I am not the bad guy here.”
He is right, of course. But that makes it even worse, because without a bad guy, who could you put blame on? Who would be the target of your frustration and your scorn? Who would pay for countless sleepless nights wasted alone or in a stranger’s arms?
If there is no good, no bad side, no villains or heroes to put blame on, what does that leave for you? Just the law. It is hard, but it is the law.
There is no one but yourself who carries the burden. Even knowing Tartaglia goes through the same doesn’t soothe the pain steadily growing in your heart. You’re like two stars gravitating to each other, seeking the sweet collision to finally become one and create something bigger, the most exquisite light in the endless black galaxy, but whenever you manage to come close to each other, other forces pull you apart.
You shift your position from towering above him to slumping back on Mikhail’s lap, your anger deflated like a balloon.
“Arguing with you is no fun,” you mumble, sheathing the knife back in its place inside your boot.
Mikhail arches one dark brow. “Learnt from the best. You don’t want to get into an argument with my mama.”
“Are you two leaving me out from a team bonding session?” comes a static voice from your left.
“Darling, we would never leave you out from a potential threesome,” Mikhail says back, a wicked grin flirting with his mouth.
“Blergh,” you groan in disgust and roll off him, grabbing for the plastic piece from where Mitsuki’s voice has sounded; Il Dottore’s newest invention, a voice transmitter agents use for long distance communication.
“So, how’s it cooking, good looking?” Mikhail asks, ignoring your eyes rolling back. “Anything new at the front?”
Mitsuki is silent for a moment. Somewhere, a dog barks. “I think someone might have tipped the Baron off.”
Immediately, you feel Mikhail's body tense next to you. “Do you need us to come in?”
Oppressive silence fills the room. Mikhail jerks, but before he can jump to rash actions, you grab his arm hard enough to bruise. He freezes, and you both stare at the voice transmitter in Mikhail’s hand.
A moment later, static crackles, and Mitsuki says, “I received a note on the caviar shipment. Roads are all clear, it should come in around seven in the morning.”
Mikhail relaxes, but a sweat bead rolls from his temple and disappears behind his black turtle neck sweater. He sags against you, exhaling very loudly.
A couple of years ago, after you three had been working together and hadn’t tried to kill each other as often as other teams, you guys had decided to come up with your own secret language for times like these. Mikhail had first complained about the hours put into learning it the most—the semantics always changing depending on what line of work you’d infiltrate—but eventually even he had agreed it was a pretty neat trick. What Mitsuki has said simply means all is in order and the mission is proceeding smoothly.
“Little fucker,” Mikhail grumbles, ruffling his own hair just to keep his hand busy. You agree. It feels like you’ve aged five years in those last five minutes.
That relief is short lived. A small explosion from the right wing inside the mansion lights up the night like a firework show. Mikhail is out of the window in a flash. You grab your rifle, keeping an eye on him as he crosses the street in a flash and climbs over the iron gate.
Two shadows tumble through the hole in the second floor. You sway your scope, laying eyes on Mitsuki as he wrestles with a cloaked figure. Purple sparks fly, clashing with crimson flames that rise skyward and turn into black smoke. At least something is according to plan even though your Cryo Vision would be more effective.
You watch them fight for a moment, unable to get a clear shot as both are short distance fighters. Mitsuki moves quicker than a flash, whirling two hatches over his head, parrying a deathly bow from the Sumeru’s Claymore. Mitsuki is smaller than most of his comrades. People like to underestimate him, but that’s part of the fun, according to him. Proving people wrong. He dodges another swift strike, rolling out of the way and giving you a clear sight at your target. But over his shoulder, Mitsuki catches your eyes and gives the tiniest shake of his head. Not yet.
You wish he could see the stingy eye you’re giving him right now. You’ve waited long enough out in this cold and your whole body shakes with the need to move, the need to fight. A quick look to Mikhail shows he’s fending off two of the Baron’s guards himself. Luckily, they can’t really hold their stand against a fully trained Fatui agent. He quickly takes out his opponents, closing in on Mitsuki and the Sumeru agent. Mitsuki has driven him to the edge of the forest. So that’s his plan. You wait until the spy is right beneath a long, thick branch, then pull the trigger. The shot is muffled by the silencer, slicing through the air with infused Cryo power. It hits its target, cutting the branch off. The Sumeru spy is too slow. When the branch buries him under its weight, Mikhail finally catches up to Mitsuki, and through your scope you can see him patting Mitsuki down for injuries. Mitsuki pushes him away, not hard or in a mean way, just enough to signal this isn’t the time. The job isn’t done yet.
Mitsuki advances the spy and kneels, looking for signs of life. He looks up, his dark eyes searching your scope. He holds your gaze, picking up his voice transmitter.
“I have good and bad news,” he says. “The spy is still alive, so we’ll get our answers. But now I’m pretty sure the Baron knows what’s going on.”
“Then don’t just stand there, someone go after him, quick!” you yell in your transmitter.
Before Mikhail dashes off, you hear him curse. “Lord Scaramouche is going to kill us.”
He will, considered this was supposed to undergo without the Baron noticing anything.
* * *
Dear little tygress,
forgive my horrible handwriting. I am still shaking from all the laughter your last letter gave me. Zhongli-xiansheng was actually worried for my wellbeing because I had choked on air and almost died. I swear, you will kill me one day, little tygress.
Speaking of little and potential lethal beasts, I’m surprised Scaramouche didn’t use your head as a toilet plunger. I really do think he's fond of you, little tygress. Any other team would be six feet under by now. You have to tell me your secret once I’m back. Scaramouche still doesn’t know I broke his favourite, ugly cup with the bear on the front from Fontaine, and I want to be prepared once he knows.
Everything is the same in Liyue, and at the same time, everything is changing. Rex Lapis’ murder is still unsolved, and I do enjoy watching the little traveller boy run around looking for answers. Once I return with the Geo Archon’s gnosis, dinner will be on me.
How are things at home? I hope Tonia hasn’t finished all mooncakes by herself again and saved some for the rest of the bunch. I can’t bear to hear Anthon cry again about me only sending sweets to Tonia and Teucer. Has the old man gotten in touch with you? He still doesn’t reply to me, but mama says he’s reading the letters. Maybe a bottle of Liyue’s Baijiu will loose his tongue, or hand for that matter. It’s almost as good as Fire-Water, promise.
Till next time and don’t get too much on little ‘Mouche’s nerves, otherwise there will be no room left for me.
Yours, Red Fox

With what the previous anon said before, it's early in the game to say if it will do well since they plan to run it for 10 years, but tbh from what I can see genshin is good at making ideas that r kinda separate from the main story aka events especially if it's centered around a male character. Most of the players want cute girls so ofc they'll give them that even if it takes away from having an interesting character ig. Also at this point I feel like they're running out of ideas for the story, or at least aren't executing them well. I noticed that they go for impact (lol) than development or consistency. Like u mentioned before, Ei has a sad backstory but...that's about it? (Like how do u describe her character other than liking sweets? She has little to no personality, along with a few of the other genshin women) Up until that point she was a ruthless, and I'm all for lady villains but that turn around was ridiculous; give me a (main) character that has to face the consequences of their actions, even if it means death. Hell her character story could have been about her reflecting on her past actions and trying to make it right, of course the citizens would be slow to accept it but wouldn't it be cute if after a few regions, when u visit Inazuma, u see or hear the citizens talk about the shogun, with some ppl saying that she has changed for the better and others still criticizing her for what she did. I feel like that would give the world much more depth. Like it's becoming more obvious that there is more favoritism for the guys than the girls (hell even the male traveler gets more attention than the female one).
Idk...I feel like the game isn't giving me the same excitement as it did before, but it might just be the hype wearing of ig, I'm in the catagory of ppl that lose interest over a game after two years lol. (They do excel at making good character designs at least) Tho more anime is coming out next year so that'll probs take my attention, are there other anime or games or shows/movies that u look forward to?
Two: mention of suicide and sexism
Ei's character story could have been her witnessing the effects of her actions - how she fucked up so many people. It could have been her feeling shitty the moment she realizes that eternity leads to nothing but pain and suffering. That no matter what she does, nothing will become 'Good' again, that this war she waged onto her people didn't help with anything.
But nah.
Miyoho said "uwu have a date with this character who could have actually been a cool af villain, regardless if she turns to the good side or not"
Tbh I don't think they're running out of ideas for the story. I think they're running out of proper ways to execute them nicely. They're pumping out content to keep players playing and in the end, while it's working, it's not working that good. I think they should take their time with story related events and quests. For fucks sake, the world requests have more lore, are better executed, more exciting than the main story quest. Unless it involves puzzles. I hate em.
And yes that would be so cute!!! Slowly accepting their 'God' rather than doing it immediately... Them realizing that she's trying her best to change her ways... Would be so fucking nice.
And well, I could be pulling this from my ass, but it feels like sexism. That's a bold claim and I can't confirm if it's true or not. But from the amount of attention they're giving to the male characters is far more than the female ones. The male characters are just so... Interesting compared to most of the female characters. Obviously there are some good af written female characters but the males are just flushed out more. A lot more.
And tbh same, not as excited when it comes to events as I used to be. I only started to play again because I want C1 Xiao and c0 or any C zhongli even if it means I have to suffer.
And as for games... Hm... Not really. Well. There is neiR: Automata. I'm playing it rn, actually and I'm barely staring 9s' play through. 2B is really... Inconsistent though. Sometimes she's like "wow machines have feelings" but then she's like "showing emotions is forbidding" when around every literal corner, every Android is shown to have emotions. Also, it doesn't make sense as to why she was so attached to 9s in the very beginning when they first commit suicide??? Like, it's never been implied they met before that point. I could be wrong considering I barely started the game.
My theory is that they met before though. Because it's been told a few times that 9s doesn't mind losing his memories if it means 2B gets to keep hers once they commit 'suicide' and he only has enough time to transfer one of their memories. I could be wrong, though.
I just started to watch JoJo's bazaar adventures BUT I started half way through part 3 since that's where my bf is at rn... I might binge watch the series because it's actually very interesting and funny.
Fuck Dio tho, all my friends hate Dio.
Demon slayer is something I'm considering writing for, especially with season 2 out. So keep an eye out for that.
BSD BEAST THE MANGA I AM BUYING THE PHYSICAL FORMS BECAUSE JFC I LOVE THE ART I LOVE THE STORY AND I WILL ORDER THE LIGHT NOVEL TOO. I'M SAD AF BECAUSE OF THE NEWEST CHAPTER AND I AM EXCITED FOR THE LAST CHAPTER IN JANUARY (I THINK)!!!!
BSD SEASON 4 I CAN'T FUCKING WAIT, BRING IT BONES. YOU BETTER NOT ADD UNNECESSARY STUFF OR TAKE OUT IMPORTANT STUFF THIS TIME LIKE YOU DID IN SEASON 1!!! DON'T ADD SHIT FROM THE LIGHT NOVELS, IT'S CONFUSING AS HELL.
IK IT'S NOT ANIME BUT HAZBIEN HOTEL AND HELLVA BOSS!!!
I fear for Hazbien though.... They recasted a LOT of the pilot va's, including Alastor's singing voice, Charlie's singing voice, and angel dust's va...
Angel dust's va was perfect for the part imo.... I'm going to miss them all. Not only that, but usually when you sign off your stuff to a TV studio or whatever, you don't necessarily own that version of it completely.
A game I am looking forward towards is pokemon black and white. My brother stole it and pawned it off so I don't have them anymore. But I am planning on getting them at some point in time. Mostly for N, though. I love the story though even black 2 and white 2.
Might write a yandere! N x reader series. Maybe. I simp for that man so hard you don't even know it.
That's all I can think of for now.

Character Details  Shinkai Kanata is an uncommon name, likely a very unique one as well. And yet, one only needs to listen, to pay a bit of attention, to hear it anywhere in Teyvat. One can especially hear this name carried in whispers in Inazuma, and following this sweet siren’s call is that of a pretty little thing, gentle and ethereal as they offer a smile from their aquatic throne. “What is your wish? Speak anything your heart truly desires, and I will see that it is done.”
This is the regular mantra Kanata repeats several dozen, or perhaps hundreds, of times a day. It is their job as the God of Wishes, after all. Rather, a reincarnation of said god. They cannot remember any details of their past life, but they are told by their loyal followers that they were killed in the Archon War.
Fortunately, Celestia seems to have deemed it fit to reincarnate them in the present day, and their followers, who searched for them even after their passing thousands of years ago, are all too overjoyed by this.
But if that’s the case, why has it felt so wrong ever since the incident with the Mikejima girl…? 
Story 1  The Shinkai Cult has always had strong ties to the various organizations across Teyvat, underground or otherwise. This is a simple, sensible practice to ensure their protection, especially in recent years as the electro archon presiding over their nation and the normal citizens within began to grow displeased with their increasing influences. So they established members in the Bakufu, the Fatui-- anywhere that they could possibly get their hands on some power. The Mikejima family was an especially treasured connection for this reason. The mother had ties to the Fatui, and the father to the Bakufu. Even better, they had a son so similar in age to the god they revered. So while their ties protected the cult, their son could protect the God of Wishes, provided they were able to come in contact and form a friendship. 
Kanata, for their part, was simply happy to finally have a friend. Mikejima Madara was all they ever wanted, a good and loyal friend who did not put them on a pedestal or keep them at a distance. Granted, they knew such things were to be expected as a god, but they never could help the fact that all they longed for was a genuine friend despite being a god. To them, Madara was a blessing, a godsend-- or had they simply granted their own wish? They weren’t sure for the longest time.
Doubt only began to settle in, though, when they could not cure Madara’s ailing little sister despite their greatest efforts. Why could they not grant this one wish, one so much more important and dear to them than any other?
Story 2 Despite Madara planting the first seed of doubt in Kanata, they still held fast to the belief that they were a god for many years. Even when Madara upped and left them behind (taking away the sole friendship they had, taking their heart and soul with him), Kanata saw no issue with the way life was. To them, it was a simple fact that they were a god, indisputable and proven in the way that wishes truly did come true once confessed to Kanata. But that was only ever because of the forces that the Shinkai cult employed. In the dead of night, when none were around to witness, the cult sent a number of its members to attend to the task. Teach someone a lesson through pain? Fix a neglected fountain overnight? Anything and everything could be done with enough numbers and endless work until the desired result was achieved. This is how the cult has operated since Kanata was “discovered” to be the reincarnated God of Wishes.
All of it, everything that Kanata ever knew, was nothing but lies fed to them, practically shoved down their throat. That included the terrible idea that Madara had abandoned them after all, that he was a rogue trying to undermine and dismantle the cult to watch Kanata fall. And who were they to argue? This was their family, after all. And with so many people corroborating the story… how could they ever believe that Madara was only doing this for their own good?
The answer: they didn’t. Not until it was too late. 
Maybe one day, if they ever get to return home, Kanata will finally be able to apologize to Madara for all they have cost him.
Story 3 Kanata fought hard against the collapse of the cult (though they never knew it to be one). They clung so desperately to the only life they ever knew, fearful of what would await when they acknowledged the truth. They wanted to hate Mikejima Madara and Morisawa Chiaki for all they did in shattering that illusion around them, but in truth, they never could. Their combined efforts, after all, were only ever in Kanata’s best interests.
But to be human was terrifying, and Kanata also feared they wouldn’t have Chiaki and Madara to guide them after it was all said and done. And to their credit, they weren’t entirely wrong. The Shinkai Cult fell to pieces, but fragments remained, some still attached to powerful organizations. Fearful of the Bakufu (and the electro archon who was as displeased with Kanata as ever, even after they came to acknowledge their humanity instead of claiming to be divine), Kanata fled Inazuma to escape their clutches. But they feared the remaining Fatui connections too, and that any might recognize them and either kill them or bring them back to Inazuma to either be forced back into false godhood or to be dealt with once and for all by Baal. So, with no place guaranteed safe thanks to the Fatui’s reach across all of Teyvat, Kanata began to live life on the run.
Once a god, now reduced to a mere vagabond. It’s a sad, pathetic story, and if they had the heart, Kanata would laugh.
They don’t, though, so they press on and remind themselves never to sleep in the same place twice.
Story 4  Kanata remembers the night Madara left them. They remember clinging to the back of his shirt, fear in their eyes for the first time as they asked where he was going, when he was coming back, if they could go with him. They remember how he only promised to return as he always did, and they remember how much they hated him when he did not.
Now Kanata wonders if he hates them just the same. They wonder, too, if this is how he felt all those years ago, wanting to be in one specific place (with one specific person) but not being allowed to do so. It’s terrible, heart-wrenching, and Kanata thinks it must be some cruel joke on Celestia’s part. To bless them with such a wonderful friend, to add another into the mix years later, and then tear them all apart from each other… It’s a cruelty only the gods could achieve.
They would know, wouldn’t they? They were a god for a time, after all. Maybe not by technicality, but that changes nothing. In fact, it only serves to make one thing absolutely certain:
Shinkai Kanata hates the gods and all that they stand for.
Story 5  There are rumors in Teyvat of a wandering swordsman. A samurai, really. They say he wields a great torrent and brings a storm with him wherever he goes, a violent tempest that rips apart any unfortunate enough to get too close.
Kanata is quick to point out that these are just exaggerations. They may possess the power of hydro, but they are no god. No tempest follows them, nor are there any great storms that rip apart any who get close. To achieve such power, one would need to be a god, right? And Kanata is no god.
They are, however, a friendly traveler. They will slay monsters and beasts in their travels, or clear out bandit camps and other such dangers. Especially if it is requested of them by any fortunate enough to encounter them in the wilds of Teyvat. They will not accept anything in return, though. Only gods get tributes. Kanata is no god.
Kanata is just a lonely, homesick little human. Their only wish now is to return to Inazuma, to tear Baal down alongside the others in the rebellion, and finally have a chance to rebuild their life. Alas, they are unable to do anything of the sort. So for once, Kanata is the one left to pray. There is no god to grant their wishes, though. There never was one. What god would ever look down upon the humans from their lofty home and Celestia and want to help? It’s a silly notion, a bitter one, and it always fills Kanata with that much more hate.
Isn’t there something they can do to tear even Celestia down from its high throne?
Shinkai Cult  The Shinkai Cult was founded shortly after the God of Wishes died a few thousand years ago in the Archon War. For unknown reasons, they were all convinced that their god would reincarnate someday, even when her gnosis was stolen and her life extinguished in a storm that ripped her apart so violently, as cruel as the first electro archon. And so they searched far and wide for thousands of years, over endless generations, until young Kanata was discovered. The cultists learned that they were a distant relative of a priest who worshiped the God of Wishes closely prior to her demise, and was even suspected to have been her lover. Convinced that this child, with hair like the sea the God of Wishes originated from and eyes to match her own, was the reincarnation they were looking for, the cult approached the family to invite them to join their ranks as their ancestor once had, worshipping their child as a reincarnated god. 
They would not take no for an answer, though, so when they were refused, young Kanata’s family was swiftly eliminated. The child was taken in by the cult, thereby named “Shinkai” Kanata.
To this day, Kanata does not know of this story. Should there come a day where they do discover this, however…
Kanata would hunt every last member of that cult down and silence them for good.
Vision  The hydro archon is the God of Justice, but Kanata does not understand why such a god would ever bestow a vision upon them. Did she simply feel like adding a little something to sell their “sea god” act? Could archons be so willy-nilly? Or is there something behind the so-called gift? Gods are so difficult to understand. If they had their way, Kanata would never have anything to do with them ever again, not even through means of a vision. 
They’re aware, though, that they shouldn’t loathe or scorn this gift. After all, many across Teyvat even pray to receive such a divine gift and the power that comes with it. Not to mention, they hail from Inazuma, where many have had their Visions stolen from them (sometimes even violently so) by a tyrant afraid to be challenged (or so they think, anyway). To scorn their vision would be an insult to all those unfortunate souls deprived of what they want or once had… But Kanata can’t help the way that they feel, either. 
Nevertheless, they try to keep an open mind about it. It has its practical uses, after all. The powers granted to them through this vision have saved their life (and even those of others) more times than they can count, after all. So for that, they will never truly be ungrateful. 
Make no mistake, though. Kanata is not one for justice or any of its ideals. Even if the wandering swordsman of blue is described as a hero, similar to the Darknight Hero of Mondstadt or Aoi of Inazuma, even if they, too, wish to be a hero… They know they carry far too much resentment deep down to ever truly be able to live up to it.
That certainly doesn’t mean they can’t act the part, however.

@hereticlord​ has reported :  💋     —     FOUR TIMES MY MUSE THOUGHT ABOUT KISSING YOURS AND THE ONE TIME THEY ACTUALLY DID .     /    OPEN .
Tumblr media Tumblr media
001 .
“I’m mad at you,” Apple said with a small huff, eyes narrowing at him as fingers worked on wrapping the bandages around his injured arm. They were sitting in the grass, or rather, he was while she sat on a fallen tree to give her a slight height advantage to make her work easier. “That was careless, and stupid, and just because—” A deflated sigh escaped her then, knowing she was wasting her breath; he won’t change. This will be part of his life. And she didn’t want him to change. She just worried. A lot. It was simply in her nature to do so.
He teases her, as he often does, and Apple finds it is hard to stay mad at him. No, she didn’t want him to change. Never. She accepted him, every part of him, even the parts that make her twist with anxiety. “Come here,” she chides, hands catching his face and tilting his head up to face her. Her eyes scan his features, gauging the damages done; a small bruise against his cheek, something she can easily tend to. A few cuts here and there, but they’re not too bad.
Her eyes fall on the split of his lip, and she tutted her tongue. Except, her eyes linger longer than she intended to, and she felt her cheeks burn red when he catches her.
“Try to go a few days before I see you as a patient again, will you?” She said, pushing him away playfully. 
002.
Apple absolutely loathes unnecessary violence, which was what made their relationship — whatever it was — rather ironic. While she lived a pacifist lifestyle, to the best of her ability anyways, he had chaos and the urge for battle coursing through his veins; she can’t figure out if it was simply because he loved the adrenaline, or if it was something deeper than that. But she kept her comments to herself, unless it was violence done in her name.
Though, admittedly, Childe had plenty of reasons to worry — how many treasure hunter camps has she walked into, throwing herself in danger, for the act of healing. Knowing that they can just as easily hurt her as easily as she trusted them.
“Childe, I can’t breathe,” Apple protests, arms held out at her side before fingers moved to his shoulders and she shoved gently at him. He was holding her so tight, it was almost as if he was afraid. The idea of anyone worrying about her well being was beyond her, which was so hard to believe, given how beloved the traveling doctor was to most. But she comes from a place where . . . People hated her for the reasons the people of Liyue adored her. And it was the opinions of home that leaves her damaged.
He finally releases her, ruffles her hair, and she pulls back and looks up at him. Heart hammering in her chest, she smiled at him, catching his hand and holding it to her chest. “Let’s get out of here, okay?” 
003.
She never forgot the way Childe held her that day at the domain. The color of his aura when he found her, bound, amongst a bunch of hoarders despite her pure intentions of helping them. That was simply in her nature, it was her legacy. Her dying right. The history of her people has taught her that she was nothing but fodder to the Gods. A being meant to sacrifice themselves to the beasts that once terrorized Teyvat and bring peace to their slumbers so the people of the world can have one less catastrophe to behold.
Bone Witches were made with despair, revenge, and self-sacrifice. She was made by the woes of her fallen sisters, centuries in the past, to uphold their heavy burden once more. Sometimes she dreams of a woman from centuries ago, crying over her, pitying her poor great granddaughter whom she tried to save from her same fate.
Apple never learned the meaning of self-preservation until that day. It never, ever, ever occurred to her that she was seen as someone cherished and precious. Cared for enough that they would cling to her in such a way. Sure, anyone else would have saved her, but it was a matter of morals, not affection.
Pacifistic ideations aside, there’s a small sense of pride at the look of shock that comes from the archer. Electro sparks and hops off of her blade, the hirichurl that had charged at her sent flying into the cliffside. She will fight, rather than accept her fate. Rather than fear and wonder if she will one day meet Death like she has not been tempting him and silently hoping to be relieved from her responsibilities.
She had forgotten the rush of adrenaline when her metal sings with every strike of sword. When they’re done, the electro swordswoman practically throws herself at him. “Did you see me? Bet you never thought I can do that, huh?” She sing-songed, arms wrapped around his neck. She pulls back, and their faces are inches apart. 
She’s forgotten what it looks like to have someone proud of her.
004.
“Did . . . Did you see . .. ?” 
Apple’s voice wavered, and it was clear that she was fighting back the tears that threatened to pool in her coppery gaze. Her back was turned to him, shoulders stiff and raised as if she was trying to recoil into herself, like a turtle in its shell. It was a stupid question, of course he did. Why else would he be here? Have followed her? Most people here were good at minding their own business, even when something like that happens for everyone to see.
“Stay away from him, you — you monster! I thought we saw the last of you! You’ll curse us, you should have joined your sisters!” The words spoken from the woman from her home village stung more than the slap across her cheek and the soreness of her back from when she was shoved into the moat of water. She had thought the little, lost boy she was helping looked familiar. She could tell by his clothes that he was of Inazuma origins, but she didn’t think that he was the grandson of one of the elders of her village that had, almost literally, chased her out of her own home.
Not that would have stopped her. Knowing it’d end up like this, she would never leave a boy to wander by himself through Liyue harbors, with its maze like design.
Turning to face Childe, the sight before him was absolutely heart breaking. Her lips were curved in their usual smile, still filled with warmth and care and love. But she was crying. Tears flowed from her eyes, even though they were clenched shut in a desperate attempt to keep them in.
“Please tell me you didn’t see. You didn’t hear.  I don’t want —” . . . I don’t want you to hate me, too.
Apple remembers sobbing then, as he pulls her in silently. She’s grateful he doesn’t comment on the show that was so graciously provided to the citizens of Liyue. Just offers her the comfort she needed to hear, and was too afraid to ask for. When she calmed down enough and he offered to treat her out to help lift her spirits, all she wanted to do was kiss him.
Even if she meant something to him, and not in the way he did to her, it was all she could think about the rest of the night. But the many sweets she indulged on was enough. 
005.
To say that Apple knew no fear would be the farthest thing from the truth. She knew fear. It was not in the form of her own well-being, though that was something she was starting to work on. But it was in the form of the well-being of others. The people she cared about. Deeply. She knew fear in the form of failure. In the form of abandonment. One would think that, someone who was as pure - hearted as she was, would harbor a hatred for those who were meant for darkness—willingly or not. One would think that she would side herself with the good, and yet, here she was. 
The chaos and havoc is thick in the air, it was almost  nauseating to someone who was so sensitive to auras and the dark. She picks her way through the masses of bodies, hands clutched to her chest, as her eyes scan the corpses around her, steps hasty and almost timid.
Apple is no stranger to the dead. But if there was something she feared: it was this draw she seemed to have to them. Her vision glows, and her hand rises to cover it, clenching it tight in her grasp. “Don’t—” she whispers to herself, mouth dry. Dark magic churns in the pits of her stomach, calling out to the bodies around her.
Bone Witch, the souls of the dead call out for her, and she does her best not to answer. All it would take to raise an army of the dead is to raise her finger in the air and a rune for its namesake to be drawn in the air. The Foul Legacy had left her an army to her disposal, if she so wished.
“There you are . . .” Came a breath of relief when she finally catches up to Childe. Though . . . She wasn’t sure if that is who she should call him. She is unbothered and equally unfazed by the gore that stains his skin, or the inhuman glow of his hypnotic gaze.
It’s voice is almost hypnotic as It speaks at her. Speaks her name in a voice that was both Childe’s but not at the same time. Like an echo in a cave, the voices fill her brain. “Do you hate me too?” It seems to ask, mocking her with the words she was afraid to speak that night in Liyue. 
She surprises It with a small laugh,��hand moving to stifle the sound with the bend of her knuckle. It’s a little funny to her, and she knows she shouldn’t laugh. Her hating him . . . Would make her just as bad as her people. Who hated her for something she could not control. Apple understands now, why she has this draw to him. Felt a likeness she has never felt with anyone else before.
There’s more confidence in her steps as she approaches, though a small falter of slight annoyance that size is, as always, an obstacle. But, she makes do and stops before It. Fingers find the fabric of their scarf, and she pulls them down. The kiss is rather gentle for something filled with havoc and blood, and when she pulls way from It, copper on her tongue, her eyes locks with Its purple.
“Never,” she answers it, soft and sweet. She can never come to hate him, no matter what side of him stands before her.

Hello love~! I'm here to request wedding headcanons for Zoro, Sabo and Ace~
These were so cute and fun to write!! Hope you enjoy, my dear friend ~
Wedding HCs for Zoro, Sabo, and Ace
Zoro:
Tumblr media
- nervous as HELL
- he doesn’t show it, remaining as stoic as ever, but he is sweating buckets in that suit!
- it’s not that he has cold feet, he just hadn’t imagined he’d ever commit to someone forever like this
- but, he fell for you in such a way, immediately knowing that you two were meant to be together until the end of time
- he would’ve been fine without any ceremony, but he knows a wedding means a lot to you, so of course he said yes to the idea
- the crew really wanted to throw you an extravagant wedding, but both you and Zoro agreed on a small ceremony on the Sunny
- he begged Nami and Robin for help to plan and design the entire thing, since he has no fucking clue what he’s doing, and Nami complied (with only a small fee)
- Nami and Sanji (lol) are your bridesmaids, with Robin being the maid of honor!
- Usopp and Franky are the groomsmen, with Luffy being the best man!
- Zoro is the one who asked (dared? demanded?) Sanji to be your other bridesmaid and he only agreed if he could also escort you down the aisle
- Zoro complied though he was definitely hesitant; the idea of the ero-cook being arm and arm with his future bride before he could even lay eyes on her makes his blood boil
- Brook is of course playing sweet music on his violin
- Chopper is the ring bearer and flower child (let it be known he is absolutely adorable in his little suit!!)
- Jinbe is the officiant!
- it’s a wonderful ceremony because the entire crew is actually dressed to the nines! Franky still isn’t wearing pants, but he does look fancy from the waist up!
- Zoro is as handsome as ever, in a full grey suit; his cherished swords aren’t decorated around his waist for once, but they are laid aside in his line of sight of course
- once Brook starts playing the traditional wedding song, Zoro perks up, craning his neck to look for you
- his breathing and heart rate increase rapidly; it’s time and he is about to e x p l o d e
- it takes a lot for Zoro to get nervous, why is he on the verge of hyperventilation??
- what if you see him and change your mind? what if he can’t really make you happy for the rest of his life? what if you realize there’s someone way better out there? what if you realize you don’t actually love him…?
- Luffy notices Zoro’s apprehension and places a reassuring hand on his shoulder, offering him an ear to ear smile to let him know everything will be okay!
- the blinding pure white of your dress instantly catches Zoro eye
- your beauty and grace somehow makes every single one of his fears disappear
- he even completely dismisses the fact that you’re linked arms with that shitty cook
- you look up at him with the most loving eyes and he questions how he could have ever doubted the love you have between each other; a kind of love that is meant to withstand anything and everything
- Zoro hardly even listens to anything that comes out of Jinbe’s mouth, he’s just too focused on you and your genuine, happy smile
- once you are officially proclaimed as Mr. and Mrs. Roronoa Zoro, he grabs you instantly lifts you up into a passionate kiss
- the entire crew erupts into applause - both Franky and Sanji are weeping - and the real party begins!
- you end the ceremony with a lavish and lively party full of booze, food, music, and friends
- the honeymoon is postponed, since as usual with your crew’s luck, the marines have arrived; they caught word of the wedding and are now surrounding you, planning on a capture
- you finish off your wedding day with fighting and escaping the marines together as newlyweds!
Sabo:
Tumblr media
- marrying a man from a generally pretty secretive group, it’s no surprise that this ceremony is low-key and a secret to the world
- the only people in attendance are you, Sabo, and the Revolutionaries
- Ivankov insists you get married in the forest of Kamabakka Kingdom, since the pink flowers and leaves of the trees serve as an elegant backdrop/atmosphere
- you agree, as long as the Kamabakka people do not cause any disruptions
- spoiler: they’re hiding in the bushes and trees during the entire ceremony!
- the set up is basic: a few white chairs are set up in order, facing a simple arch decorated with the most beautiful flowers from the island
- the only lavish things about the wedding are the outfits
- Sabo is dressed head to toe in a handsome coal-black suit (with a matching top hat of course!); his sunny blonde hair and bright blue eyes really pop against the darkness of his suit!
- your dress is long, flowing, and pearly white
- Inazuma and a few other Kamabakka citizens helped to get you ready
- Koala wanted to murder Sabo as he was just impossible; he wouldn’t stand still for her, he was just too jittery and eager to see you!
- the ceremony begins and Sabo is as ready as ever; he won’t lie, he is a little nervous, but he knows seeing your loving face will make him feel better
- Koala is your maid of honor; she proudly holds your lengthy train as you walk down the aisle with Dragon, who is escorting you
- Hack stands next to Sabo as his best man
- Ivankov is elated to be the officiant, though you and Sabo had to make him promise he wouldn’t go over the top during the ceremony
- luckily, everything goes perfectly during the wedding
- Sabo’s face is threatening to freeze into his toothy smile, but he is just so happy to finally see you
- the exchange of your vows really makes the audience tear up
- Sabo isn’t even looking at his vow papers anymore; the words he’s wanting you to hear spill effortlessly from his heart
- he’s just staring into your eyes, telling you precisely how in love with you he is and how he promises to love you for the rest of his days and beyond
- happy tears begin to prick your eyes, causing few to fill his eyes as well
- he takes your hands in his once more as the final words he’s been dying to hear all day are said: ‘I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride.’
- Sabo doesn’t even hesitate as he takes hold of your blushing cheeks into his gloved hands to grab your lips in a romantic kiss
- you can taste the saltiness of your tears (or are they his?) flowing down your cheeks; Sabo smiles joyfully against your lips
- this causes the people of Kamabakka to erupt into applause and rush forward from their hiding places
- amidst the chaos, a party ensues, but Sabo finds you and discreetly leads you two away
- he takes you to a solitary beach to enjoy some peace and quiet as husband and wife
- it seems he had planned this moment, as a checkered blanket and a single lit candle are waiting for you
- no words are said between you two; you sit down on the blanket together while he pulls your back into his chest, wrapping his arms around you
- you watch the blazing sun go down into the vast sea while he whispers sweet nothings in your ear
- he makes loves to you on that beach, calling you his dear wife over and over again, never once getting tired of hearing you call him your husband
Ace:
Tumblr media
- The Whitebeard Pirates do not accept small ceremonies
- your wedding is gonna be so extravagant, everyone will hear about it!; it’ll be in all the newspapers!
- you and Ace accept this with great gratitude, and you two are never asked to do anything
- Marco surprisingly takes complete control in the wedding planning and honestly, you’d think he was the bride-zilla
- Izo is of course in charge of your hair and make up, and he makes you look absolutely stunning
- Jozu and Vista have to hold Ace down while Izo makes some “touches” to his face and hair
- Marco and Izo both want to strangle Ace for thinking he could wear his hat during the ceremony 
- the entire ship is lively with crew members and even some elite guests (the Straw Hats and the Red Hair Pirates to name a few)
- Luffy is beyond excited to have and call you his sister!
- it is known around the world as the wedding of the century! Pops wants nothing but the best for his son and now daughter!
- he is beyond excited to accept you into the family and is already pushing for grandkids
- Ace is a little nervous, but he’s mostly beaming in that handsome white suit of his!
- you two had talked beforehand about this commitment, since you two are pretty young, and you both have insecurities
- but you two are so crazy for each other and know you are 100% ready and eager for this next step in your lives! (also Marco put way too much effort and stress into this wedding so it is definitely happening)
- seeing you walk down the aisle in that gorgeous white dress of yours, Ace has to really fight the tears threatening to roll down his cheeks
- this is really happening; he’s marrying the woman of his dreams!
- he’s so overwhelmed with emotions, knowing you are just as in love with him as he is you; he never thought he would find a love as true and unbreakable as yours!
- he really has to suppress himself for kissing you right there before the officiant can even start the ceremony
- but once he gets to kiss you, he almost tackles you!
- you two stumble backwards, causing his arm to catch your waist and he is dipping you into a deep and heated kiss!
- the biggest party erupts immediately after the announcement of Mr. and Mrs. Portgas Ace!
- though you tried to turn down the offer, Pops practically forces you to take a honeymoon trip
- he provides a small boat and your bags are already packed!
- Ace takes you to an island known for their fancy restaurants and beautiful beaches
- you two spend a week doing nothing but making sweet love, adventuring the island, and relishing in the fact that you are now officially husband and wife!
