trivial things they do that make you fall in love all over again

genre : fluff ( modern au, committed relationships? )

characters : xiao , cyno, kaedehara kazuha , tighnari , scaramouche x f!reader

albedo takes care of you in ways you never knew you needed. your powerbank, airpods or phone is never out of battery because he charges them when you're in the shower or sleeping. he can guess what you want for dinner from the way you're texting, and often has exactly what you've been craving for before you ever told him what you wanted to eat. he restocks everything in your home before anything ever runs out. takes and edits THE BEST insta-worthy pictures of you, everyone wonders if you hired a professional now. brings you your favorite snack and/or drink every time he goes to the convenience store because he is just so smitten he can't spend a minute without thinking about you. remembers your birthday, the date of the day you two first held hands, kissed and everything, the dates are engraved into his memory and he does mini-celebrations every single year no matter how much time has passed. sometimes, he comes behind you when you're busy with work and starts brushing your hair, and maybe braid them if you'd let him. he's amazingly good at styling your hair, then when he's done, he'll kiss you on the top of your head and whisper how beautiful you are, the most breathtaking person to walk this world.

tighnari, after being with you for a while, can read you like an open book. just as you're about to leave the house, he'll remind you something you were about to forget just now. he knows when you've had a bad day from the way you close the door, so he's bringing you a cup of tea and pulling you in a gentle hug without a single word needed. he knows exactly what you're thinking, too much to the point where you two say so many words at the same time. the longer he spends time with you, the more he finds himself syncing to your mannerisms- and frankly, he loves it. when you accidentally fall asleep while waiting for him to finalize his work, he'll gently cover you with a blanket (and if you wear glasses, he'll take them off gently and put them next to you with a kiss on your forehead.) he may not verbalize it often but you have him completely wrapped around your finger, he can't go through his day without searching for your presence every corner he turns. also, he would never let you go to sleep with tears in your eyes, no. over his dead body. no matter how bad the argument would be, tighnari would make sure you two were at least on surface-level understanding before comforting and apologizing to you before going to sleep with a gentle promise of discussing it again when you're both more rational tomorrow. grows different types of flowers and names them after you. tugs them behind your ear when they grow and bloom.

kazuha spoils you without explicitly meaning it. always lets you have the aux in his car and if he's playing music, always has your new favorite songs saved in his playlist so you two can both enjoy. he carries an extra set of mittens and scarf for you in case you're cold every single time you two go out on a date in winter. brings you peeled/sliced fruit when you're working and sometimes feeds them to you if you're too busy. when he's waking you up from your nap, he kneels next to the bed and kisses your cheeks and forehead while gently whispering sweet nothings until you're awake instead of leaning over. on a snowy winter day, he'll draw a heart in front of your window by his footprints on the fresh snow and call you over to make you see the giant (kind of unshapely) heart. still opens every single door for you after years and years of being together. buys you flowers and heartfelt gifts without ever needing a reason to because you being in his life is the greatest joy he has ever experienced. and if marriage is something you want, even after marriage, kazuha will never stop calling you endearments, saying i love you every day, and take you out on a date once a week at the very least. will gladly freeze for the night if you hog the blanket accidentally, and when you fall asleep while hugging his arm, he'd adore how cute you look while sleeping and gladly ignore/forget about his arm going numb because he doesn't have the heart to move you while you're sleeping.

scaramouche's affection is so lowkey that you need to pay attention if you want to notice. he always lets you walk on the inside of the sidewalk. he covers sharp corners of the table when you lean down. he gets you that concert ticket that's sold out within seconds somehow and leaves them in one of your lecture notes for you to find out yourself ( and has one for himself too, half to annoy you and half because he secretly loves seeing how happy you look at that concert). flicks your forehead every time when you start talking bad things about yourself in attempt to soothe your insecurities. argues with you about you "stealing his hoodies/sweatshirts" all the time but it's him who leaves them in your room secretly when you aren't looking, then claim he "forgot it" just because he loves seeing you in his clothes. once fought a guy who was trying to buy the last piece of snack you liked at a convenience store and successfully brought you the snacks- you never found out what happened to the other dude. he pauses the netflix whenever you leave the room even for 2 seconds. steals your jewelry sometimes (because it reminds him of you throughout the day), and dresses so well to the point he looks better in it than you do.

xiao, if you pay enough attention, shows every second of the day how smitten he is for you already. he texts you good morning the second he wakes up, and the last one to say good night. sends you random memes and cute pictures of animals and tag you with "looks like you" or if there's a picture of a cute animal couple, sometimes with "us." if you text him "my head kinda hurts ugh", he'll leave you on read for 20 minutes and by the time you're wondering what he's doing, you'll see him knocking at your door with painkillers, homemade stew, and a slice of cake he knows you like. extremely light sleeper so when you sleep together and you can't sleep or you're having a nightmare, he wakes up immediately and comforts you, shushing your tears away and hugging you, playing with your hair until you fall asleep. every time when he's coming over to your house, he has something he knows you like (a drink from your favorite cafe, your favorite desert, book or maybe a spare hoodie of his). brings you random pretty rocks and small stuffed dolls, pretty much everything he sees and reminds him of you- he will buy and give it as a present to you. knows you have like half his closet already but doesn't have the heart to ask for his clothes back because you seem so happy wearing them. sometimes calls you at midnight and takes you for a spontaneous motorcycle ride, and take you where the night view is the prettiest. wears that promise ring you got for him 3 years ago religiously every single day. talks to you how much he loves you and how much he wishes you'll stay by his side forever when he thinks you're sleeping (ps. you're not).

cyno, while he doesn't look like it, is the biggest simp if you see through his stoic exterior. he worships the ground you walk on, is willing to do nearly anything just to see you happy and healthy. he will listen to you talk and rant about things he has no idea about for hours or days if needed- not just listen passing-by, he never takes his eyes off you, and listens to every single word with great attention. he's also a living heater so he always warms up your freezing hands and feet without a single complaint. gives the best hugs, and he smells so good too, he will always be the comfort person you needed when you had nobody else to turn to. gives you his jacket even if it's minus 30 celsius outside and INSISTS he isn't cold, even if his nose is clearly turning red. carries the shopping bags for you even if you insist he doesn't need to, he really doesn't want to make you lift anything heavy. if you two order at a restaurant and you don't like your food, he'll gladly switch with yours with no complaints. instead, he'll have a soft, adoring smile when you have another bite from his dish and your eyes sparkle in excitement when you clearly like it better than yours. if you have any scars on your body, that's where he likes to kiss you the most. and he truly thinks the scar, or your entire body and soul is the most beautiful one he's ever encountered. will watch your comfort movie/series with you thousand times over without a single complaint just to see the smile on your face. has a custom-made hoodie that has the ugliest embroidery with a print that says "i love (y/n)" unironically and wears it around the house. not afraid to kiss and cuddle you even when you're sick and try to keep him away in case he catches it but he never listens, instead cuddles in even closer. when you two share a piece of food, he'll purposefully split it in like 6.5/3.5 and give you the bigger piece. oh and he says he'll love you even if you turn into a worm so, that's that.

Intimacy in all its forms

Pairings: ayato, heizou, albedo, kaeya, childe, scaramouche x f! reader

tags: fluff | highschool au! (currently reading seasons of blossom and i'm not okay)

a/n: this will probably be one of my last writings here before i'm once again swept up in school. this will be 3 parts with other characs!

taken from prompts here

pt. 2

Ayato | The intimacy of someone falling asleep next to you. On your shoulder. In your company.

—he was oh so capable. everyone admired and trusted him, he was all smiles to them and they'd worship the ground he walked on. he was good at everything; academics and athletics, student government positions, and work that seemed too much for one person. he handled it all like some kind of superman and you hated it so much. you hated how ayato promised he'd change his attitude when you're dating and he broke it—seeing him still handling paperwork when the sun was starting to set and the school was about to be empty.

"are you done?" you ask, leaning against the door to be met with his sorry eyes and words. "sorry (y/n), i'm about to be finished soon, you can go now if you want." what kind of question was that? of course, you'd stay with him.

you pull out a nearby chair and sat next to him, leaning closer and resting your head on his shoulder. "I can't have my afternoon nap because of you" you mutter before closing your eyes, hearing his hushed apologies that you inwardly groan to. and when you wake up, both of you go together in the darkened hallways hand-in-hand, passing by empty classrooms that you refuse to look at and ayato chuckles while glancing at you.

he doesn't call for a car ride when he's staying late, in fear of inconveniencing the family drivers but you tell him he's the only one who'd be inconvenienced commuting at a rush hour.

"how could I be inconvenienced when you're with me?" he says before yawning, a sign that he was about to succumb to exhaustion, and soon you feel a weight on your shoulder to see his blue hair nuzzling your face. ayato fell asleep on your shoulder as you held his hand, smoothing his knuckles over.

it was far from an uncomfortable silence. to have him resting on your shoulder, in your company, laying his guard down, and being vulnerable around you is enough to make your heart melt. you remember feeling something press against your head earlier when you were asleep on his shoulder, it felt like a kiss. and you know you'd always return the favor so you lean down a bit and kiss the top of his head, careful not to disturb him in this short slumber.

"take it easy sometimes, will you?" you whisper.

Heizou | The intimacy of “How did you know that?” “Because I know you.”

—you learned from the very start that heizou was a deductive person. it's like he knew everything as he was very quick to pick up on things. he even notices random stuff that you don't even know about. and all these little things he points out pile up and makes your heart flutter. you seriously think you're catching feelings and you hope this was one thing heizou won't know.

"you have something on your mind? you've been zoning out since earlier like your soul had flown out." he asks and you brush it off by saying you're just stressed from doing schoolwork. heizou won't pry if you don't want to tell him so instead...he's going to be the one to tell you something that's been weighing heavily on his mind.

it was just a peaceful day hanging out with him until he blurts out a confession out of the blue. "I like you (y/n)" he says and you're staring at him unbelievably with your eyes wide and mouth parted. he continues, "and I know that you like me too...at least from what I observed. turn me down if I'm wrong-"

"wait. how did you know that?" you cut him off. and you weren't even obvious with your crush from what you think. does he really know you that well to let you face your feelings for him?

"because i know you"

it had been bold of him to take that leap of faith to you. because there was that slight chance that he was just assuming and you only saw him as a friend. but his risk paid off knowing you all these years, staying by your side, and watching you fall for other people. for the first time, he chose to trust his guts rather than his mind. and it was rewarding to see you smile and hear your answer to his confession.

"once again you're right. i like you too, heizou"

Albedo | The intimacy of seeing someone’s unfocused eyes when they first wake up

—your eyes flutter open and the first thing you see is long lashes and striking tufts of blonde hair. you're curled up against the bed, a safe distance from this warm body and you haven't processed the information yet that your "classmate" is still here and you slept in the same bed together.

your parents are coming home today by the way.

you mutter a curse, soon realizing that the wet streets have dried and albedo is still here. oh my god. albedo! you wanted to scream but he looked so peaceful sleeping, you thought it would be a crime to wake him. but from your stirring and panic, you stop for a bit just to see his eyes flutter open, staring at the ceiling for a moment, revealing a lovely color of teal that soon moved to stare at you.

"good morning" he groggily greets and you say it back meekly. oh you've been a bad bad girl. when your parents are away from vacation, you invited your boyfriend to your house for a movie and cuddles since it was rainy season. turns out, you lead him to the bed for a continued cuddle session until you fell asleep.

you both sit up at the same time and you carefully watch what he does next. albedo looks at you as you flinch in surprise. "I should go now, you said your parents are coming back today, right?" you nod and he moves to kiss your forehead, feeling the warmth of his soft lips that closed your eyes. "I should've said no but unfortunately, I realized I couldn't resist you. I'm dating a bad influence." albedo says, playing with your fingers as you shake your head while giggling.

"let's have breakfast together first. then you can go after that, we have plenty of time." you whisper, kissing his cheek before going out of your room, feeling flushed and giddy from this intimate secret.

Kaeya | The intimacy of someone saying "Text me when you're home safe."

—"you don't have to do this", you shake your head looking up at him yet he gives you an easy smile in return. "this is the least I could do as your suitor." he insisted to wait with you at the stop until your transportation arrives. kaeya always made you feel safe and assured, he was constantly looking out for you. and before you go, he held your arm and said "Text me when you're home safe." so when you arrive, you let down your bag and pull out your phone to text kaeya.

"I'm home now! how about you?" you waited for a few minutes, growing worried until you see him typing a message that read, "home too. it's raining these days and it's going to be hard to commute. do you want me to give you a ride home starting tomorrow?"

you type in, feeling embarrassed yet he beat you to it saying "it's only for the rainy days. i hate seeing you squeezing against other commuters too."

yet he didn't say you'd see his brother too in the front seat with kaeya enthusiastically tapping the passenger seat at the back for you to sit in. it was very awkward in the car, proceeding to kaeya's smooth words that his brother lets out a groan every few minutes or so. you know it was his way of letting his brother know that he actually has a girl with him.

"hi can you please drop me off just around the corner? it will be fine thank you." you spoke to the driver with a smile and kaeya was confused as to why you wanted to be dropped off there.

"are you hiding something from me? a secret boyfriend coming over?" he teases yet he was quite nervous for the reason. you laugh it off, pushing him playfully before easing his worries.

"my parents still don't know about you, right? let's avoid any confrontations for now, I just don't want to be teased by my family that's all." you held his hand, giving it a little squeeze to see him break out in a small smile. "i'm not hiding something i swear! i'm serious about you. i like you kaeya!" if someone, even your neighbors saw this sleek black car parking in front and you coming out of it, it will certainly be the topic of gossip. you just wanted to avoid that.

"i know. i like you too. but was that your answer—" "ehem, (y/n) here we are. stay safe." diluc cuts him off with a cough, announcing your location and you pull away much to kaeya's dismay. you give him your brightest smile before shyly waving, thanking the brothers and the driver then got out of the car, walking to your house, knowing they're still there parked and watching you go in.

kaeya's phone beeps, a notification of your message saying, "I'm home! Thank you for the ride♡"

Childe | The intimacy of instantly recognising someone’s handwriting

—a piece of paper had found itself bouncing on your desk, all crumpled and white. you open it, not taking a glance at whoever behind you had thrown that but as soon as you open it you already know who it came from.

it was very evident from the handwriting, nice and clean but in terms of penmanship against other people you know, this person was on the middle tier. it was not something that gets someone to say "wow, your handwriting's good!" yet you loved seeing it anyway.

and you know he could see the corner of your lips rise from his view, it made him mirror the grin you so subtly hide in fear of being called out. you take a glance at the teacher before writing on the piece of paper.

replying to the message written, "Let's have lunch together :(( I miss you"

you write in, "Okay! And I missed you too even though we literally talked 10 minutes ago", you crumpled it back and threw the paper without looking, hoping ajax could somehow catch it.

have some faith in your boyfriend, would you? he's not part of the athletes if he's not that agile at catching. he secretly opens it and fails to hold back his chuckle that drew question marks above everybody's heads.

Scaramouche | The intimacy of answering the phone "Hey you."

—the phone rang, the door locked, and his heart fast as he was nervous about talking to you. pacing around, running a scenario of what would happen once you answered the phone.

scaramouche doesn't wait yet he finds himself wishing you'd pick up. but ultimately the tone ended without being answered and he was left with his screen showing a failed call.

he sighed, wanting to retire for the night until his phone rang once again with your name on it. he dives onto the bed to get ahold of the device and picks it up, speaking first as he always gets the first word.

"hey you"

"What's up?" he hated your dry reply. "What took you so long to pick up?" he wanted to know what kept you busy, didn't he tell you to always answer your phone when he calls?

"I took a shower and cleaned myself up. I'm literally in a towel. Why did you call?"

he didn't mean to do it but he immediately created a mental image of you freshly out of the shower with your hair wet and wearing a towel. the tip of his ears turned hot and he struggled to speak until you laughed over the phone and reminded him of what he was to you.

"hey boyfriend. you shouldn't be thinking of anything funny—"

"I wasn't!" he acted like a provoked cat as his shout tore that his mom shouted back asking who he was fighting. he was certainly fighting you and your schemes to get him all flustered, it worked though. and scara never changed, even after everything he always had the first word in calls. a "hey you" laced with unconcealed affection and a cheeky grin that follows.

(๑•̀д•́๑) " 𝘼𝙣𝙣𝙤𝙮𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙙𝙤 "

Included: Kaeya, Diluc, Albedo, Zhongli, Raiden Ei, gn! Reader

CW: Mentions of drinking.

A/n: Stan twice for better life (stream set me free on Spotify!) Possibly ooc, not proofread

Kaeya:

▶ You know when the bartender serves your drinks? And when you go and get your drink he'll snatch it before you can before giving it to you. I don't know why but I just feel like he'll do this to tease you lol, he doesn't do it often though.

▶ It's really frustrating because it's like when you're about to eat something but your siblings get to it before you. Kaeya finds it funny how your face turns when he does it.

▶ Like imagine you're so excited to get your drink but then BAM snatched.

▶ At first you'd be a tad bit confused because he didn't say anything about it so you'd just kind of ask him why after a while.

▶ When you ask Kaeya about it he'll just laugh it off and say he's just simply teasing you.

"Okay here are your drinks, hope you guys enjoy it" the bartender says while they put down your and kaeya's drink "Thank you " Kaeya says in thanks to the bartender, you went to get your drink but kaeya got it before you, you looked at him in confusion as to what he's doing "Why'd you get my drink?" You ask while he just chuckled and put it back on the table. After a while you've slowly grown used to this particular habit of his.

Diluc:

▶ Diluc has this habit where he would pop out of nowhere behind you and suddenly touch you without saying a word before greeting you hello.

▶ It's kinda creepy too because you don't really know when he arrived behind you because of his quiet ass.

▶ AND AND he would just smile at you innocently as if he didn't just pop out of nowhere and scare you.

▶ Diluc doesn't really get why you get startled because he thought you always knew he was coming right up behind you.

▶ Now this can be real annoying especially if you get startled or scared easily lol.

▶ If you ever tell Diluc about it, he'll try his best to make his presence known less scary.

Since Adelinde was on a day off you were cleaning the dishes after you and Diluc had dinner, after he ate, he excused himself as he had documents to sign so obviously you thought that he was upstairs. Well, you were kinda right but he decided to do them later and came back down to see you washing the dishes, you didn't notice him coming up behind you as you continued to sway your hips while singing. He suddenly puts his hands on your waist causing you to jump and look behind you quickly.

"What do you want to do tonight?"

He asks, you look at him with sightly wide eyes before returning your attention back to washing the dishes.

Albedo:

▶ I will be doing this in modern au because why not.

▶ Albedo has a habit of pointing out your spelling/mistakes in chats.

▶ He would correct them too.

▶ Like it would just be a tiny typo then he's be saying "you spelt ___ wrong"

▶ I love albedo but PLEASE, he's sometimes so logical at times it isn't funny any more.

▶ He will literally notice the slightest mistakes in your grammar. Like you didn't put the comma in the right place? He'll notice.

☑ [name]: Hey 'bedo you coming later?

☑ Albedo: You forgot to add a comma.

▶ Leave them grammar mistakes alone.

☑ [name]: Did you knoo about the homework yesterday?

☑ Albedo: *know. Yes I did, thanks for reminding me.

☑ [name]: okay, it's due tomorrow

Zhongli:

▶ Zhongli's annoying habit is that he sometimes speaks in deep words and would often not say what it means (this is me fr in my native language, I never understood deep words T-T)

▶ You'd be having a normal conversation with him and then he'll say something like 'Mellifluous' and then if you ask him he'll just look at you for a second then go back to what he was talking about.

▶ But if he's feeling generous he'll actually say what it means.

▶ Mellifluous is a word to describe someone's voice as sweet-sounding or musical lol.

▶ These stuff usually happens when he's telling a story that happened when he was still an archon or whenever he's talking about stuff like flowers, history, etc..

▶ It also happens often at tea time! Since that's where he mostly tell his stories and experiences.

▶ While you kinda found it confusing, it was also kinda attractive since he speaks so proper and formal.

"Guizhong is a kind girl, her voice was mellifluous and smooth. It's pleasant to hear" He said as he talked about his old friend Guizhong. "Wait, what's mellifluous?" You ask, not knowing what the word means "Ah.." He just said before looking down at his tea then continues to talk about Guizhong, about how she was when she was still alive. You sat there in confusion.

After a while he finally says what it means "Mellifluous means that someone's voice sounds sweet or pleasant to the ear"

Raiden Ei:

▶ I THINK we know what she does.

▶ Raiden would sometimes steal your mochi/sweets when you aren't looking.

▶ Like for example you got distracted by something, either by a person talking to you or when she purposely distracts you by saying things like "[name] look! There's a cute cat over there"

▶ She'll make sure you're fully distracted before getting a piece and stuffing it in her mouth lol.

▶ Sometimes you can tell she ate a piece because of the residue on the sides of her mouth lol.

▶ If you ever notice a piece is missing and you ask her about it she'll just deny it and say that you already ate it (gaslighting at its fullest)

▶ She'll just look at you confused as if she didn't just sneak a snack into her mouth when you ask her about it 😒.

▶ You can tell she ate it though, but we don't talk about that, you don't have the heart to tell her.

You were munching on some cookies while also giving bites to Ei because you know how much she loves sweet stuff "[name] look is that yae?" Ei says while pointing her finger at something in order to distract you "hm?" You acknowledged as you turned around where her finger was facing, while you were trying to see where Yae is Ei took a cookie or two from the container it was in and quickly ate it "hmm.. I don't see her" You say, not being able to see the pink haired girl. You turn back to your cookies and there was only one left "huh, I swear there were two cookies left" You said while you searched the table, you then turned to Ei and asked "Ei have you-" You cut your self off as Ei looked at you with an innocent face while you notice the crumbs on the corners of her mouth that wasn't there before.

Likes, follows, reblogs, and any kind of feedback is appreciated!

FROM ME TO YOU.

Because good things take time and it’s not too late for happy birthdays.

ft. Albedo x gn! reader.

cw/genre: fluff, birthday special, reader is an amateur painter.

this is just something spontaneous that I came up with… I just… kinda gave free reign to whatever flashed through my mind once I was before the blank document, parting from a very vague idea I had haha.

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

Autumn’s cold always arrived early in Dragonspine.

The faraway rays of a molten copper halo fuse with the peaks outlined on the horizon.

Magic is the word you’d use to describe such scenery; seconds that seemed to both be suspended in the helpless passage of time, and slip between your fingers; like golden sand inside an hourglass too small to savor every snapshot brought by the incandescence of crepuscular skies.

On instances like this, you wished your painting skills were better; if only to capture the glow of early dreams threaded through the asters of twilight.

For now, however, this will have to do.

Why did you wait until so late for this, you are unsure.

True, wishing a happy birthday to someone as the clock strikes twelve is not an uncommon occurrence.

And you’re kind of doing just that, more or less.

Except…

Well, it’s usually when the special day starts that calls are made, starlit whispers are uttered between lovers, and secret kisses are exchanged.

So you can’t help but wonder… is it too late?

For this? Or to back out now?

A sigh escapes your chapped lips, into the dimness of dusk, the stillness of frozen peaks, the stars.

Stars.

Your gaze is drawn to the easel you’ve set before you, fingertips delicately trailing over the four-point asteroids decorating a heaven made of brushstrokes.

Gold pinpricks, almost aglow beneath the darkening penombre of sundown, over a backdrop of ultramarines and indigoes, akin to sunlight over the depth of a frozen sea; a mirror image of the sky now hovering over snowy plains.

Looking up, you find a firmament of constellations. Stories, sketched in the silver flames of light years away suns, above an infinity of obscurity.

Those tales, however, had a tendency for lighting up paths that fell victim to the constant fluttering snowflakes.

“Hello, dearest.” A voice, smooth, liquid dawnlight over dewed cecilia petals, greets. “Am I late?”

The sound of crunching snow fills the fire-lit silence, the torches from his camp casting him in tepid hues.

“Albedo!” You call him, turning around.

And when you do, you swear he alone outshines every galaxy you could ever dream of rendering on canvas.

Tendrils of midnight sun and honeycomb seem to meld together in the blonde locks framing the alchemist’s porcelain-like face. Spotless, argent light from distant stars kisses his skin, fading into flecks of sparkling acacia blossoms to halo his gaze.

Summer skies.

That’s the image his eyes always evoked: clear skies, endlessly blue, over meadows to lie on, the low grass soft beneath your forms, as hands entwined and fingers pointed above, determining the shapes of the occasional cottony clouds.

What a paradox, how someone who spent his days surrounded by ice could make sparks ignite in your heart, cheeks heating up like the embers that remained after the coziness of a homey hearth.

“Is there anything you needed my help with, love?” He asks, gloved hand running its thumb over the back of yours.

Your gaze flits from your intertwined hands to his smiling lips, taking in his features in full.

“Not exactly your help.” You offer, your own lips a moon shaped brushstroke of vermillion. “I just… would like you to see something.” Your hand squeezes his, as you swing your linked hands between the both of you. “It’s your special day today, after all, isn’t it?”

Your rhetoric is met by the alchemist’s windened gaze, followed by one of his subtle smiles.

Tugging him along, you guide him to the candle lit spot where your easel is propped up.

Why are you feeling nervous all of a sudden? You internally chide yourself, biting the inside of your cheek.

Relaxing your shoulders, you turn to face your lover, gaze averted when you mumble:

“It’s not much but…” You scuff one of your boots on the dirtied snow. “I just… I remembered your painting, ‘You and I’ and… well… you know… I…” Your lids close, your nose scrunched up in that way he always found utterly endearing. “I wanted to make a painting for you too!” You finally sputter, stepping aside so he can see your masterpiece.

From that moment on, Albedo would forever believe no starry night could ever come close to capture the sheer magic of your art.

Gilded speckles abound in your make-believe heavens, each of them a shade slightly different than the previous one. They rest against a backdrop of cyans, accentuated in baby blue around your handmade constellations, the piece’s finale, a violet horizon. Outlined against it, two figures seem to dance, their happy ending created by them, rather than foretold by the celestial bodies staring in envy at a proximity that doesn’t burn, but warms and completes.

“I know it’s not the best but-“

“It’s perfect.” Is the kreideprinz’s awestruck answer, as his svelte hands hover over the frame. “You’re perfect, [Y/n].” He blurts, still staring at your work.

Then, he meets your eyes again. Your face is in his tender hold, a fleeting frosted kiss landing on your lips.

“I love it.” He assures. ‘I love you.’ His dilated pupils confess.

“‘From me to you’. Its title.” Your hand reaches up, resting on top of his. “You know… I hope you didn’t think I had forgotten about today… I just… kinda wanted this to be your last memory of your day.”

With that, both your gazes fuse in a watercolor of each other’s lips, of the anticipation of feeling them against your own.

“Happy birthday, Bedo.” You utter, before leaning in.

And then, the night, the snow, the starshine, all fade away, in a myriad of rose colored frenzied blazes. Your hands lost in the ash blonde strands at his nape; his, pulling you closer by the waist. Your kiss is a nebula of pulsating light, undimmed by even the most ruthless blizzards, lighting up the ebony of the pines obscuring the moonlight. Frozen air is exhausted in your lungs, but you don’t care right now, not when you’re kissing your prince charming under the lights of an aurora that’s still hours away.

A few moments pass, with the stars orbiting marking the approach of midnight.

A snow-kissed breeze caresses both your faces when you part, causing a shiver to rake through your body.

Your prince’s arms wrap around you.

When you look at him, matching chuckles fill the night air.

Moments like this were worth waiting all day for.

「 snowed in 」

⤷ info: albedo x gn!reader || tooth rotting fluff || wc: 506

⤷ warnings: none!!

⤷ extra: happy birthday @thexianzhoujade !!

High atop Dragonspine, where the icy winds howled and the snow-capped peaks reached towards Celestia, you and Albedo trekked through the cold terrain, your breath forming misty clouds in the frigid air.

As you ascended higher and higher, the landscape transformed into a winter wonderland, with crystalline snowflakes swirling around you in a delicate dance, and you marveled at the breathtaking beauty of your surroundings.

You’d promised to help your lover with his research today and you were determined to keep that promise.

Despite the biting cold outside, the interior of his workshop was warm and inviting, illuminated by the soft glow of alchemical lamps and the occasional crackling fire in the hearth. You went inside, Albedo close on your heels, the warmth enveloping you like a comforting embrace after braving the icy winds outside. The air was filled with the faint scent of parchment and the tang of alchemical reagents, a reminder of the ceaseless experimentation that filled these walls.

Albedo moved with purpose, his steps confident and measured as he navigated the space with the familiarity of someone who had spent countless hours immersed in his work. His workspace was a reflection of his meticulous nature, every tool and ingredient meticulously arranged for easy access, yet bearing the subtle marks of a creative mind at play. As he gestured towards a cluttered table littered with sketches and diagrams, his eyes alight with excitement, you couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation, knowing that today would be nothing if not interesting.

But as time went on, the weather took a sudden turn for the worse. Dark clouds gathered overhead, blotting out the sun and casting the world below into shadow. With a rumble of thunder, the first flakes of snow began to fall, gentle at first, then growing steadily more intense. Albedo glanced out, concern furrowing his brow. The snowfall intensified rapidly, transforming the landscape into a whiteout of swirling flakes and howling winds. Despite the warmth and comfort of the workshop, a sense of unease settled over the two of you as you realized you might be snowed in.

Albedo's gaze shifted back to his workbench, his mind already calculating contingencies and possibilities. With determination in his eyes, he turned to you, a reassuring smile tugging at his lips, assuring you that you would be alright.

Taking refuge within the shelter of the workshop, you huddled together for warmth, your hearts pounding in unison with the rhythm of the storm outside. Albedo wrapped his arms around you, pulling you close as you watched the snow fall in a mesmerizing blur beyond the mouth of your sanctuary.

As the hours passed and the storm raged on, you and Albedo remained nestled within the workshop, sharing stories and laughter to chase away the cold. And as the last of the snowflakes fell from the sky and the storm finally began to wane, you emerged from your hiding place, hand in hand, ready to go back to the warm confines of your home back in Mondstadt.

Celebrations

Birthday Celebration HC’s with Genshin Boys

(Tartaglia, Zhongli, Diluc, Kaeya, Albedo)

A/N : I was iffy about posting it but like whatever - enjoy!! If you all have any genshin requests feel free to send them my way.

- - - - -

Tartaglia :

- Expect everything you’ve talked about ever

- I mean it, he’s bought it (he hasn’t been saving them in the closet to give to you all at once)

- He baked a cake with your favorite animal or something dorky like that (it’s sweet cmon)

- He would rather celebrate it at home so he can spoil you and spend as much time with you as possible

- Movie night and cuddles and whatever food you wanted

“Happy birthday Y/N! My sweet thing is now old! Can’t believe I’m in love with a prehistoric dinosaur.” You could only snort as Childe ushered you into the kitchen. You sat down at the table as he laid the cake in front of you. It was definitely homemade and - was that a narwhal on it? “Ajax dear, did you put your narwhal on my cake? Also amazing job baking this!” You felt a kiss at the top of your head as he lit the candles. “Of course! I put a heart too! We both love you after all!”

Zhongli :

- He understands the importance of birthdays but he’s had about a million so give gramps a break

- Wakes you up with some nice tea and breakfast

- ‘Happy birthday my dear, enjoy’

- He will take you sightseeing and a nice dinner too

- If you have other plans in mind though he doesn’t mind switching it up

- He got you a ring (no it’s not smaragdus jade don’t worry he checked)

You felt a hand brush against your cheek and Zhongli’s voice call from your dreams. “Wake up dear, I have breakfast and some tea for you.” Your eyes cracked open and adjusted to the light while your lover adjusted the plate in front of you. You murmured your thanks as you stretched and reached out for his hand. “Happy Birthday Y/N. Ive got a fun day planned for you.”

Diluc :

- Diluc tried his best okay

- He sucks at planning (Adelinde fixed everything up for him)

- He threw a party at the manor for you with all your friends

- He even made a new drink and named it after you!!

- Constantly has a hand on you and reminding you that you’re super special to him

- He got you a new coat since you like to steal his all the time (not that it’s gonna stop you from taking his)

“Surprise!!!” You gasped as your friends jumped out in the living room of you and Diluc’s shared manor. Diluc walked over to you and lead you towards everyone, not without stealing a quick kiss first. “Happy birthday my love. I made you a drink - tell me when you want to taste it. Enjoy your day, you mean so much to me.”

Kaeya :

- He totally is the type of guy to wake you up at the crack of dawn to sing happy birthday

- Just let him and go back to sleep, let him get it out of his system

- Once you are ready he takes you out (on his nonexistent horse - that’s our cavalry captain!!)

- He planned a picnic next to a lake with a bunch of wine and snacks

- He will sing happy birthday AGAIN and feed you a slice of cake

- It’s going to end up in a make out and him telling you how beautiful you are to him <3

The weather was nice as you sat down on the picnic blanket. You were shocked to say the least, you don’t know how Kaeya had the time to set this all up. He opened the basket and grinned at you. “I brought some wine and snacks. Gotta make sure you have a good birthday, yeah?” He leans in and captures your lips in a heated kiss. He separates from the kiss and goes back to setting the food out. “You can’t distract me too much just yet! I need to sing to you again.”

Albedo :

- He painted a portrait of you!!

- The type to just ask what you want to do for the day and follow you around

- He just wants you to be happy and do whatever you please with your special day

- You want lunch? He’s paying! No argument

- He even made you a card that he gives you later on

- There’s some cheesy sappy poetry in there as well, he drew your favorite flowers next to the lines too

“Have you enjoyed your day so far Y/N?” Albedo had continued to eat as you said yes and talked about what you wanted to do later. “Yes, of course. We will do whatever you want. I just hope to make this day as memorable as possible for you. Before I forget - here’s your card.” Albedo kissed your hand before passing it to you. He was always so thoughtful.

That aside, please enjoy these headcanons!

Amber

She would love it sm!

She’d probably buy you stickers to put on your skateboard

She’d love to try it one day if you let her

I feel like she’d actually be pretty good at it bc she alr has good balance bc of her wind gliding skills

Klee would beg you and Albedo to let her try, but Albedo didn’t want her to fall and get hurt

Barbara

Very supportive

She wouldn’t be interested in trying it herself, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t enjoy watching

Thoma

This man…

He’s supports it, but worries all day

" 𝚈𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚜𝚝𝚞𝚙𝚒𝚍, 𝙸 𝚕𝚒𝚔𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝"

Albedo x himbo! reader Inspired by a line from Porco rosso Genre: fluff,

Note: just making this cuz why not? Thank you @wilczachannn for being one of my inspiration<33 also thank you @beepbopbee for proofreading<3333

At first, he tried to ignore you after hearing negative rumor's of you. Envisioning you to be a disaster for his education.

He miserably failed to not encounter you after seeing you dozing off in class. Right beside him, meaning you were his seat mate. Perhaps he could ignore like he did with others, yet he would catch himself staring at you for too long.

What made you so enticing? The blonde took glances at you whenever you were awake, though not paying attention to class. At one point you caught him looking and sent a smile. An adorable one.

How intriguing. How you managed to spark an interest almost immediately was truly fascinating.

He found himself slowly getting attached to you, worrying over you and chuckling at the jokes you made. Archons, you made him feel like a different person.

Speaking of fretting over you, it resurfaced a question he had in mind for a while. How did you manage to get stuck in the basketball hoop? Did you climb the basketball system? Or did you someone *cough* Itto *cough* dunk you there? Or perhaps-

"Albedo!!!"

Speak of the devil, there you are, running in the hallway on the way to you. You joyfully wave at him with a large grin on your face. Albedo feels the world slowing as you are getting closer to him. He couldn't help but let a chuckle leave his lips and look at the people behind you, they look quite angry to say the least...

Wait, why are there people running behind you? Jean?!? Sara??!?

Oh Archons, what did you do this time?

In matters of seconds, you grabbed him by the forearm and run passed the crowd of students. Luckily, the blonde is able to keep up with you due to chasing Klee around so she couldn't destroy his stuff with her explosives contraptions.

“C’mon!! We don’t want to get caught don’t we? Plus we have a date now!"

A boyish smile graces your face as you look back at the blonde. No matter how many times you brought him (unintentionally or intentionally) into the mess you’ve made, he couldn't help falling deeper in love with you from the way you smile and hold him gently enough to not hurt him.

"Get back here [name]! And stop bringing albedo in your mess!!" Kujou Sara yells, annoyed to have another troublesome student to take care of *cough* Itto *cough*.

"But I love him! >:( And you can't do anything about it!!"

You really do have a way to make his heart flutter.

Bonus:

"Do you have anything to say for yourselves?" Sara stands proudly with arms cross signaling that she isn't in the mood to deal with the trouble makers in front of her.

While you on the other hand, are sitting on the ground with your partner in crime, the one and only Itto. All she wanted was one day free of bs. But Noooo, she has to deal with a troublemaking duo.

Your boyfriend couldn't help you, instead he watches the fiasco unfold with amusement in his eyes.

"It was [Name] who came up with the plan!"

"Huh!?!?! Excuse you but why would I try to set the lab on fire???"

"Isn't it obvious??" Itto looks at you with a smug "I actually have a brain to not stuff as much food in my mouth in 30 seconds. Unlike you"

"..." You deadpan "You joined in though..."

"What! why would I, the amazing Arataki Itto, do that?"

You both continue to bicker with each other as Jean and Sara look at each other before staring at the quiet blonde.

"How do you deal with him?" Albedo has a lovestruck look on his face and chuckles.

"To be frank, I don't know. However I do know that he's my idiot"

''Stay Close to me, my love''

Albedo x Reader (Request)

Summary: Cuddling Albedo for warmth because it's cold on DragonSpine. The request is here A/N: Oh Anon, I cannot express how much I thank you for this request. Genre: Just fluff n cute stuff

You haven't seen Albedo in a few days. You know he has been working in his lab, in DragonSpine while he's been absent from your sight. He's been working so hard lately, to the point where he's forgotten to take breaks and some days not get any sleep, given the times you would see him working in his office, you would make sure he eats full meals and gets his proper rest but, since you weren't there for those few days, all of that quickly went down the drain.

You decided it would be a good idea to check up on him, bring some snacks as well. For, you were going to stay a bit longer this time. You grab a small bag and begin putting a variety of different foods inside, and with that, you dress up in warmer clothing and head for the door.

⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆

''Archons, it's cold.'' You murmur to yourself.

Your eyes light up when you see a small pit of fire a few inches away from you. It won't hurt to take a few minutes to warm up by it, right? And so, scurry over to the fire. You let out a sigh and close your eyes. Unfortunately, you couldn't stay there for long, since you didn't want it to get too dark before you reach Albedo's lab. You force your self up and begin your walk again.

A few more fire-stops later and your long awaited destination is reached. You see Albedo standing next to a self, clearly focused on something.

''Hey! 'bedo!'' You wave at him, signaling that you're there.

He looks at you in pure bewilderment. Yeah. He wasn't exactly expecting you. His shock is soon put aside when he sees how freezing you are, cheeks a deep red, you're shaking so much that it seems you could collapse any minute.

''Love, what are you doing here? You're freezing.'' He lightly runs up to you and wraps your shivering figure in his arms. He lets go and, puts on arm around your waist to walk you into the lab.

''Ah, well I wanted to come see you. It's been a couple days, I didn't know you were gonna be away for this long. I.. hope you don't mind.'' You give him a smile.

''Of course I don't mind, dear. I've missed you, you know. Come now, I can't have you shivering any minute longer, I wouldn't want you to get sick.''

He picks you up bridal style and walks over to a fire in the back of the lab. He makes sure to set the bag you brought somewhere safe, he won't forget to ask about it later. In a small crate next to the fire, is a blanket, big enough to cover the both of you. He sits next to the small fire and leans on the rock wall behind him.

''Stay close to me, my love. I don't have much at the moment but, I hope this blanket and my arms are enough to warm you up for now.'' He says as he holds you tightly and close to his chest. He presses a kiss to your forehead and begins to make light strokes on your back.

No way you were leaving anytime soon.

Cottagecore

a/n: can you believe this has been sitting in my drafts since last year. Anyway, without further ado I present to you my own take on the cottagecore aesthetic featuring Eula,Albedo,Kaeya,Zhongli and Kazuha!!

Addendum: Dedicating Kaeya,Albedo and Kazuha's parts to my dearest friends <3. Starfell, my dear/p thank you so much for helping me manage my genshin account during my period of absence (due to finals). We have known each other for quite a while now and I have come to treasure our friendship a lot, thank you for everything you've done for me up until now. It's my turn to return the favour <3.

Rei, I have come to know you for quite some time now as well, thank you for being a good friend and joining in on me and Starfell's shenanigans in our server haha.

Almond gege!! Though it's been a while since we last talked via dms it's still a lot of fun when I get to talk to you!! I adore your writing style and enjoy interacting with you in general :3 I genuinely cherish you as a friend and am hoping for the best for our friendship!!

And now I'm done expressing my gratitude and platonic lovemail, happy reading!!

warnings: none

notes:© all rights belong to yuezhong. Eula Lawrence, Albedo Kreideprinz, Kaeya Alberich, Zhongli and Kaedehara Kazuha belong to Hoyoverse. Please do not plagiarize or copy any of my works and upload them anywhere. Reblog if you enjoyed! It helps a lot <3. Taglist form is still closed as of now.

☆ EULA LAWRENCE

Born into a life of wealth and luxury, EULA never had to worry about the woes of being in poverty nor fret over being unable to place food on her plate.

Despite indulging in the multitudinal privileges of a silver spoon, she longs for freedom. She yearns to dance shoeless amongst large, open prairies beyond her comfortable, but stuffy abode. She yearns to run through the village streets, arms linked with friends while laughing heartily without a care in the world.

Because surely, she was meant for more than just practised smiles, business negotiations, and the inevitable arranged marriage with another influential industrial partner to expand her family’s power?

Yearning leads to wanting, wanting leads to acting on one’s desires. Eula embodies this by her recent absences in her lessons; opting to go on introspective strolls in the nearby woodland to recollect her thoughts.

When tutors came knocking on the door of Lord and Lady Lawrence to file yet another complaint of their eldest’s disappearance, the owners of the manor could only release twin huffs of exhausted exasperation; for they knew there was nothing they could do about their daughter’s one-track mind on her quests for freedom, though they were transient.

The unpredictability of what life had to offer was daunting, yet oh-so wondrous at the same time. Chancing upon you was one of the latter.

It was just one step of absent-mindedness, an innocent meeting of eyes.

Your congregation with her was fairytale-esque, whimsical with a touch of something reminiscent of a past love story. Perhaps you two were soulmates of a crueller past?; Bound once more by fate’s merciful hand.

Whatever the circumstances that led to the two of you currently curling into the other’s embrace could not change one thing though: Her family would never approve of the blooming feelings between you two. This you know well.

After all, why would they give their blessings entailing their daughter’s happiness to an outcast like you? Much less a witch. You are branded a sinner for your practices in sorcery, a cesspool of evil (or that was what most thought).

But in Eula’s eyes, she saw none of that sort.

You are her safe haven, the fields of elysium where she can frolic blissfully all day long. And to secure the safety of it, she will brave every snowstorm, cut through biting frost thrown against both of you by the rest of the world.

☆ALBEDO KREIDEPRINZ

As the sole medical practitioner in his village, ALBEDO is exalted for his role.

He takes pride in his line of work; but never exudes hubris for his achievements. Ever the humble worker, he tends to all with kindness: welcoming them with open arms entwined with generosity.

Other than his amicable presence, his intellect is another one of the driving forces that gravitates people towards him.

Scholars and members of academia alike sing praises for his sincere manner of speech, his efficacy in carrying out tasks. Cordial words bring the gist of topics in his medical presentations to life; holding candle light to Minerva’s clever hand in weaving embroidered tales. Yet his diligence keeps him on the right path, never straying from his destination. Patients recount his gentleness in treating their ailments, not once uttering words of ill-intent about their pains or the lengthy periods of time needed to guide them to full-recovery.

Not born a social butterfly, Albedo instead opts to sit in the shade of his veranda⎯⎯ a structure of respite within the large expanse of the garden surrounding his cottage. He’d sit cross-legged with a book in hand on one of the chairs⎯⎯wrought carefully of fine mahogany as he savoured his favourite blend of tea languidly.

It is only when he hears your voice does his ears perk up (figuratively). Carefully, he slots his bookmark between the pages to mark the passage he stopped on prior to your arrival.

“Albedo!”

He could feel the corners of his lips quirk up faintly at the sound of your voice as you jog towards him. Ah, what a lovely day to spend it outside.

☆ KAEYA ALBERICH

“The word trouble and KAEYA go hand in hand.” These are the whispers of superficial neighbours that often reach your ears.

As his playmate who has seen him through thick and thin since young, you dismiss their hollow words easily. There is certainly more depth to Kaeya than it meets the eye; the many layered undertones of his character and complex past are two of the few clandestine things he entrusts you with.

As the son of your village’s chief, it is not uncommon to find him out and about. This could be the direct link to the so-called “trouble” he causes, which is in reality just people’s misinterpretations of his intentions; and on top of that he somehow always manages to find himself in the wrong place at the wrong time.

His unintentional penchant for attracting misfortune has left even his close ones baffled. And so, you take it upon yourself to rectify or at least mitigate this inborn unfortunate trait of his.

“Kaeya!”

A few soft taps against the glass window of the wooden hut where he shares residence with his father snaps him out of the dazed trance he somehow managed to fall into. Kaeya shifts his gaze to the source of your suppressed cry, grey eye glinting with a fondness only reserved for you and you alone.

Gingerly, he presses both palms onto the cool, flat surface of both panes. Then after he has made sure you backed away completely from the window, he exerts a little more pressure onto the panes.

“Hi.” His familiar, half-crescent smile greets you.

“Hi.” Reciprocating with a grin, you rummage through the burlap sack, sifting through the various items stored away inside which were not visible to Kaeya’s wandering eye.

“It’s an amulet, to keep you out of trouble.” You smile, cupping the said object in your hand with practised caution before placing it into his.

Cooing a flirtatious “thank you, darling~ I will be sure to return the favour.” directly into your ear, Kaeya leans forward to press a kiss onto your cheek. He only chuckled at your attempts to hide your flustered state as he slipped off into the sableness of the night, guided by Luna's mellow rays.

☆ZHONGLI

Toiling away at his crops diligently, ZHONGLI pauses to wipe the sweat away from his brows with the back of his hand.

“Ah,hello.” He smiles warmly, tipping his straw hat in jest at you. Chuckling at the sound of your laugh at his little gesticulation, he beckons you into his cottage with a courteous hand.

What awaits you inside are two earthen cups (moulded by his clever hand on his potter’s wheel) of lukewarm tea 𑁋 lavender, he informs. Ever the gentleman, Zhongli pulls your chair out for you as you set your things down by the door.

An hour of idle chit-chat and degusting his wonderful tea later, he noticed your furrowed brows were directed at something outside one of the windows. Following your line of sight, he instantly knew why as soon as he set his eyes on a cluster of cumulonimbus clouds gathering in the sky.

“Would you like to stay over?” He proffered.

A timid “yes please, apologies for the intrusion.” draws the smile you love so much from his lips.

☆ KAEDEHARA KAZUHA

As a wanderer, KAZUHA has acclimated to the various perks and quirks of life on the-go. Whether it be finding lodgings in peculiar places or the capricious storms Inazuma brings.

Occasionally though, he would take a break from his nomadic lifestyle and settle down in small villages or suburban towns bustling with life for as long as he feels like it.

That was how he was going to spend the rest of his life 𑁋 as a drifter, free as the winds captured by the sails of his raft he always relied upon to take him to new places; or so he thought.

A fond smile replaces his once neutral countenance as Kazuha gazes at the band of his ring resting snugly around his fourth finger. It has been a year since he became wedded to you and settled down for good. Yet, it still feels like a dream to him.

Kazuha’s mind couldn’t help but navigate its way back to the day before his promise of devoting himself to you as his bandaged fingers traced over the ring’s cool surface. You and him met by mere happenstance, it was as if fate had woven this indeterminate path for him and you were the one who lifted the mist that veiled it.

Your magnanimity is something he will be eternally grateful for. Had you not offered to share your cottage with him when it was peak tourist season, he would have been homeless.

Ah, your profession of your feelings to him is another one of the memories he holds dear in his repertoire.

“The moon is beautiful, isn’t it?” If you had been any softer, the words that slipped from your lips would have been whisked away by the tranquil night breeze.

His eyes fluttered shut in content. Kazuha nodded in assent.

“Bedo?” you called out as you finally reached Albedo's campsite in Dragonspine. Don’t get me wrong, you loved Albedo with your whole heart and soul, but why did he have to place his campsite and lab in the middle of Dragonspine and surrounded by hilichurls?!

“Right here, love.” Albedo’s voice rang out from somewhere on the left, and as you looked around the corner you saw him standing before the alchemy table. Concern washed over his face as he looked at your slightly pale face. Running up to you he cupped your face in his hands, scanning you for injuries. “Are you okay? Where does it hurt? Tell me. Now.” He found your injury on your arm, a slight slash on your upper arm.

Albedo walked you over to his workstation and lifted you up to sit on top op it, giving you a quick kiss on your forehead as he did so. Ducking down to grab something to wrap your wound with, he immediately came back up with something in his hands.

“Tell me again why you decided to place your lab in the middle of Dragonspine, surrounded by hilichurls?” you spoke with a smile on your face as Albedo carefully cleaned wrapped your wound. He murmured something about it being for research while shrugging off his coat and draping it over your shoulders.

“What happened out there?” he asked, grabbing your shaking hands and rubbing them warm with his own.

“Just a hilichurl, nothing bad, but I didn’t see him knocking an arrow and firing it until he had actually fired it.” you giggled, “Plus a few fires went out so I almost froze to my death.”

Albedo shook his head as he smiled, looking at the purple electro vision hanging on your hip. “Did you kick his ass?”

“Definitely did,” you laughed as Albedo helped you off of the workstation, walking to the fire at the entrance of the campsite you sat down on one of the stools he had finally put down. You closed your eyes and after a short bit you felt Albedo’s chest pressing against your back and head as his arms wrapped around your shoulders and his head on top of yours.

“I missed you,” he whispered as he placed soft kisses on your neck. You moved your head to the side to give him more access. His kisses went upwards and towards your ear; “I missed this.” one of his hands moved upwards to your cheek, bringing your mouth to his.

You hummed in agreement as his lips pushed against yours. What started with an innocent little kiss changed into something rougher as Albedo spun the stool around so you were facing him, a gasp leaving you at the force of him spinning you around.

Albedo took that as his sign to let his tongue slide into your mouth, one hand moving down your side to your thigh while the other made his way up to cup your face and roughen the kiss. You let out a quiet moan as your tongue fought with Albedo’s for dominance, both knowing who was going to win.

“Bedo,” you gasped as you pulled away from the kiss, breathing heavily as Albedo’s mouth went back to your neck, leaving behind lovebites and hickeys as he did so.

By now the hand on your thigh was holding onto you so hard you were sure it was gonna leave a bruise, while Albedo’s other hand had moved to the back of your head, lost in your hair.

You let out a sound that went somewhere between a moan and a whine as he sucked on that one soft spot right below your ear, earning a squeeze from his hand placed on your thigh.

Another embarrassing noise escaped your mouth but this time Albedo quickly covered up your mouth with his own. Looking over your shoulder, his whole posture changed and it didn’t take long for you to realize what he realized a few seconds before you.

“Albedo? Y/n? Are you guys here? Captain Kaeya said you might be here. Hello?” Klee’s voice rang out from a few feet away and both yours and Albedo’s bodies relaxed as the little girl in red clothes came into view.

You shook your head as you laughed, letting your back relax back into Albedo’s chest as you let your weapon vanish.

Albedo however placed his hands on your hips as he pulled them towards him, “Hmm, we're not done yet, we’ll have to continue when she leaves.” He said as you felt him there, your face heating up despite the cold weather.

“Y/n! Albedo! There you are!!” Klee smiled, not noticing your red face as Albedo smiled at Klee, asking her what was up.

__________________________________________________________

“Really?” You blink, looking at him. He nods, “Really.”

You gape at Albedo, still processing everything. “...Tayo na ulit?” “Tayo na ulit, [name].” He affirms with a nod, letting out a chuckle at the look on your face. You were cute.

“Sinasagot mo na ako?” “Yes, [name.] And yes, this is real. Don't overthink it, I'm giving you a second chance.” Albedo gave a smile as he watched you slowly process his words and to his surprise, he almost failed to accept you in his arms when you engulfed him in an embrace.

“Thank you, Albedo.” A kiss to his cheek. “I won't let you go anymore!” You declare, another kiss, his ears turn red and you laugh at his shy expression.

series masterlist

Minimal sunlight greets you first in the morning, your dim room a place for your thoughts to grow like mold. The events of last night were slowly dawning over you, the realization of a mistake washing over you like cold water.

You cheated on your husband the emperor, and you still have to clean up loose ends with the prince.

Were you guilty? A bit. But Pierro was a mere stranger to you that you could only feel remorse as his dutiful wife. As for Kaeya…your emotionless eyes say it all. The doubting only lasted for a night.

You move your thighs slowly, testing how much it hurts, and you wince. The middle of your legs felt like it was not supposed to be penetrated and your sides hurt to touch. You stand up and fall back down in exasperation, the pain still numbing your body. Should you just stay in bed all day? Besides…how are you going to explain this to your maids. And what excuse did Kaeya make for leaving the empress’ residence late?

Cogwheels in your head are already running in search of a solution to last night’s events but it gets cut off when a knock comes from the other side. You stare at it hostilely for a while before permitting them to come in.

You’ve never had a large number of people under you, while staying in your clan’s main residence you were always the one below, never directly the superior of someone except for your assistants. And now, you’re commanding the people of the empress’ palace; you’d have to think of a way to gain their loyalty and respect.

The train of servants come in your room with their heads hung low, the head maid in front of them all with a troubled expression.

‘What is going on…” Masking your fear with an unreadability, you remove yourself from the bed, grabbing a previously discarded robe on the ottoman.

“What is it? Why did many people come to see me?” You drawl out in a warning tone. It’s embarrassing to stand in front of them as an unfaithful woman. Moreover, it’s been two weeks since the wedding and to be dethroned early is indeed humiliating. Begging on your knees to your uncle is one contingency plan.

“Your majesty. Shall we prepare an Epsom salt bath for you? It’s proven to be a muscle relaxant by Akademiya scholars. And....” She seemed to be reluctant to say what was next. “And should we call a physician?”

So, they know what happened last night…

“No, just the bath, please. Also, please brew me a wild carrot tea, I’ll be taking it for days.” Three maids on the back row bow down and leave, yet there were remaining people inside your room. Your eyebrows raise in suspicion.

“Let me hear what you have to say.”

Then the servants kneel; a huge sign of respect anywhere in the empire. The head maid who’s the oldest finally spoke. “Your majesty. There is no need to hide it.”

You gulp. Speechless from whatever ploy they’re portraying for you.

“We serve you, not the king nor the empire. We are under your wing and will continue to serve Her Majesty, Empress (Y/n) Alberich. You can trust us…but please whatever you do, be mindful of the court. If you go down, we will most likely be ousted too. Your majesty, forgive us for our insolence!”

“Forgive us for our insolence!”

They all shout in unison, their foreheads touching the ground as you stand still in shock. That was an act usually meant for the emperor who holds the greatest power in the lands. It was not exclusive to him but servants rarely act like that…unless they hold their master in great reverence.

This was the confirmation you needed that they were your own people. No previous servant stays in the palace when a new monarch rises, save for special circumstances. These people are now your responsibility.

A royal is nothing without the people backing them, and mere servants are important to have a good relationship with. You’d have to use them wisely.

“I sincerely appreciate the reverence, and I will trust my servants too. But…” To make them loyal is to put a little pressure on their leash. “If I hear a word and trace it back to my palace…you’ll know what will happen.”

“Yes! Your Majesty!” Then they leave until the head maid was left, her posture a bit relaxed from earlier.

“Your Majesty, the royal portrait is scheduled before lunch. It is your first official duty as empress.” The maid says.

“Royal portrait? A family portrait?” “Yes, it will also include your first solo portrait.”

So, it means you will be in the same room with Kaeya and Pierro, could it be any more awkward? Big mistake! It was a big mistake sleeping with Kaeya!

You slam your hands against the bathwater, frustration creasing your brows. “How in the world am I going to face him?” You groan, sinking your head halfway in the bath, words conjuring bubbles.

Suddenly, you remember what his parting words were. He said: “Such a shame. You could’ve been my empress.”

Your cheeks suddenly feel warm, your face contorting from worry. You just felt emotionless about it upon waking up but now that you’re thinking, you get flustered.

When in trouble Dottore said to analyze yourself and what you’re feeling. You were too young to know what that weirdo meant but now it seemed to be useful.

You close your eyes, leaning your head against the tub and replaying the scenes in the darkness.

skip, fast forward, …, fast forward. there. When you heard his words, what did you feel?

‘I doubted my place for a moment'

An answer that came from the heart. Kaeya sure knew how to make people waver but he can do that trick only for a short time. It didn’t last long and you don’t feel anything for him. You just approached for experience and to ease Pierro’s humiliation. Your heart was still hollow. In conclusion, you don’t love him.

A breath of relief escapes your mouth.

That’s why it was shamelessly easy for you to walk into the grand ballroom, spotting the two thrones at the center and the prince that was standing mindlessly until he saw you. Fuck, why was he alone here?

Kaeya was dressed in a princely attire; glittering pendants and gold tassels hanging from his black coat decorated with gold buttons, along with the four-corner star insignia of the royal family on his left chest. He looked formal and unfamiliar. An entirely different aura from his playboy image and breezy clothes that fail to cover him.

“Your majesty” He greets you and you acknowledge him with a nod. One look at him and your mind short-circuit on what to say. Should you discuss what happened last night? You don’t want to make the first move but knowing his personality, he won’t either.

It was an unbearable silence. Just eyes scanning the other’s clothes and faces, and if it was awkward, you would admire the ceiling paintings instead. Your mouth is drying and itching to be opened, same as Kaeya who glances at your back turned to him.

He thought you were too cruel, why won’t you let him see your beautiful face?

When you entered the room looking high and mighty, commanding the atmosphere of a powerful woman. Kaeya was awestruck, he thanked the heavens for letting him bed such a woman, and he had to thank your servants for making you shine today.

Resting on your head was a crown in gold, adorned with rubies and diamonds pointing upwards. Your layered gown a sheer white transitioning to a soft purple on the ends; covered by a dark red coat with white fur trim and the usual pieces of jewelry and ornaments laden.

It looked heavy and probably harder to move in, but you didn’t carry an ounce of discomfort whenever you walk. You were amazing in Kaeya’s eyes.

His eyes fixed in your direction and his lips twitched upwards from the ticklish sensation in his heart. So, when you turned to speak to him, your head pushed back in shock from the silly grin on his face. Kaeya embarrassingly coughed away the smile, his eyes now unable to meet yours. god, he wanted to beat himself up for getting caught.

Yet the little snort of laughter turned his attention to you shyly covering your mouth. He fought the smile forcing itself once again.

“When have you been so funny?” You break the silence and ease the atmosphere; Kaeya naturally jumps back to his old personality.

“Oh? So my jokes have always been boring to you?” He playfully asks.

You kind of miss the first few weeks of his annoying banters.

“You could see I didn’t laugh. I’d just walk away.”

He nods and there was once again no topic to talk about, but Kaeya is a master at saving conversations. “Is this your first time seeing the thrones? Fancy, isn’t it?”

Then you come near him to admire the gold material and red plush seats. It doesn’t look comfortable one bit; the backrest was too rigid and it looked heavy to the eyes; just like the responsibility of those who seats on it.

Your eyes burn intently at the one in front of you, the Empress’ seat. “Yes, it looks nice.”

Kaeya hesitantly stares at you, the words concerning last night at the tip of his tongue. The seat of the emperor in front of him and the empress’ in front of yours fuel his dismal self. And his cowardness gets the better of him as you move away to the windows. A dejected expression etched on his face as he stood frozen to the ground, unable to make a move on you. You kept walking while his eyes follow, wasting the minutes given to him to be alone with you.

“Kaeya, stop staring.” You had to say it for him.

“You told me yourself last night was a one-time thing”

He widens his eyes. Those words struck his heart like knives dragging down. He found himself unable to speak, his previous words coming back to bite him.

“I’m just confused. I know I said I will give you time.” He surprises himself by speaking with such determination. He thought he would stutter.

“Then stop acting like you’re hung up over it. You should be a man of your word.”

“I am!”

“Then what do you want? Why do you look like you want something more?” You reply in anger, your voice nearing to crack if not under your control.

Kaeya suddenly grabbed you by the wrist, pulling you closer to him as his breath fanned your face.

“What are you doing?! You can’t!” You scold, eyebrows furrow angrily from his foolish actions. Your eyes were wide while he was chill like he was unafraid of whoever could see.

“(y/n)-“

The announcement cuts him off.

“Emperor Pierro is entering!”

Hands detaching so fast as if nothing happened, you and Kaeya stand beside each other at a considerable distance. The wide double doors open up to welcome Pierro with a few of his servants, one man particularly catching your eye.

He had a half mask on his right-side face, blonde hair, and sea blue eyes; body posture firm and exuding a dangerous aura. He must be the captain of the royal guard, Dainsleif.

You made brief eye contact with him; his eyes were a beautiful color of blue that you’d never seen before. And you immediately pull away when he catches your gaze, your attention on Pierro with a smile and bows.

This was the first time seeing him after that humiliation you faced when he told you to rest on your wedding night. He seems to not find any fault with that so you had to play dumb with him.

“Greetings Emperor.” You raise your head to examine his garb. It was just a simple white coat with minimal golden ornaments and the royal family insignia; blue clothing worn under the white. For an emperor, he seems to not like extravagant things attached to him. You feel suddenly conscious of your heavily decorated outfit.

“You look beautiful, empress.” A startling compliment from Pierro that made you speechless is evident on your face. It instantly erased your growing thoughts as if he had read your mind.

“Thank you, your majesty. You look dashing yourself, simplicity suits you.” You reply, a sincere smile exchanging between you and your husband.

Husband…he doesn’t feel like a husband. He’s just like a man you’re greeting at an important event. You rarely see him, you don’t meet him when you stroll the palace, even for a chance encounter. You never went to his residence and you’ve never been called to accompany him. And he even canceled your first night.

From the way things are going…you could already see the ending.

Pierro nods, his eyes looking behind you to see his son. The atmosphere then went gloomy. It was suffocating from being sandwiched between whatever looks they were giving each other. So, it was true that the emperor and the prince didn’t get along well.

“(Y/n), Kaeya, this is Mr. Albedo Kreideprinz, the most famous painter in the empire and the one in charge of the royal portrait today.” Pierro introduces and glances behind to motion for someone to come in front.

And there a short and slender blonde man with braided hair comes into view. Bright teal eyes met yours in a silent acknowledgment, he was holding a little case for his tools, and his outfit was the simplest of all. Cream colored from a common clothing store. Even Dainsleif’s all-black can’t be considered simple from the deadly attraction.

Albedo bows with a hand on his chest. “Your majesties, Your highness, thank you for having me here. It’s an honor to be the painter for the imperial family and the new empress. Congratulations on your coronation.” He later turns to you and you bow your head back.

“We are honored as well to have the great painter with us. Thank you for taking the time.”

“Shall we start?” You and Pierro nod as Albedo prepares with his small crew, Dainsleif guards from an angle, and Kaeya silently goes to his position. Disregarded by his father, he just watched the exchange between parties as he listened and faded into the background. Never has the prince felt so unimportant in his entire life.

“Prince Kaeya please move to the right. On the empress’ side.” Albedo instructs with his hand behind the canvas. You and Pierro were seated beside each other with Kaeya standing. Now, why is he on your side?! He’s supposed to be near his father!

You squirm from the feeling of him behind you, his body heat emanating to your skin. “Empress please don’t move.” The painter remarks and you feel the heat creeping up on your cheeks. Huffing a little apology from the embarrassment of looking like a total newbie. Pierro then tops your hand with his larger one; the sudden affection sending shocks to your heart as your whole body goes stiff.

“How are you?” he asks you, his deep voice reverberating. Quite the audacity he has to be asking that.

“I’m fine your majesty.” You answer curtly, ill feelings prompting you to do so. Throughout the time of sitting pretty for the portrait, no one spoke anything to the other, an uncomfortable atmosphere lingering between the three of you. The royal family was a divided mess.

“Portraits are tedious and time-consuming for my clients. If it’s alright with the empress, we’ll just use the kamera for her individual portrait.” Albedo turns to you for confirmation. You were thankful for the suggestion; another hour of sitting still and you’re going to be immobilized. “Yes, that’s fine.”

As soon as the painting was done, Kaeya storms out of the room, eyes following his rude behavior with mixed feelings. Some were shocked and some were used to it, others just didn’t care. Your eyes trail him until Pierro spoke of his departure. “Don’t be nervous about your official duties. If anything is bothering you don’t hesitate to come to me…Well then, I’m going now.” He says, turning his back to you quickly as Dainsleif follows.

“Stay safe Your majesty.” You bid him farewell and he stops in his tracks for a while. Pierro then glances at you one last time before continuing to walk, your gaze burning at the back of his head.

‘I’ll never come to you.’

The shoot flashes by quickly as you subtly express your fatigue from the day. The maids at the side scurry over as you stand up and thank the painting staff. Face to face with the painter, you see a yellow diamond tattoo on his neck.

Brushing the detail off, you exchange warm smiles with the man. “Thank you so much for doing the portraits. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for us.”

“It’s an honor to paint the imperial family, especially the beautiful empress (y/n).” “You flatter me so.”

The conversation seems to be far from done as you sense Albedo still has something to say. His lips opened to that of speaking, a blush painting his cheeks, and a hand scratching his nape. ‘Wait…this body language seems familiar. Is…is he making an advance?!’

You mirror the bashful stature in front of you, head turning to the side in search of what to do in this situation. You had to say something first to cut the conversation short.

“Mr. Albedo.” He turns to you, a surprised look on his face. “If you have any request to me, I’d be glad to fulfill whatever you ask in gratitude. But please do not keep me waiting since I want to retire for the day. You can relay your request to any servant of my palace.”

Albedo briefly forgot that you were a royal, your time is precious and he shouldn’t keep you idly by. “Oh, I apologize for taking your time.” You just give off a different air from the other two that he seemed to be at ease with. You’re more like a young noblewoman than an empress.

You nod at him and take your leave.

Albedo is in a pinch. He can’t get you off his mind. As an artist, he finally had a eureka moment upon seeing his ideal.

Fuck. He hears the chime of the clock realizing the new day has already come. The piles of paper at his side crumpled in frustration as he tries to remember and draw your face, down to the last detail. It’s sad to see the beauties on paper discarded all over him but none of them was the real you. He needed to see you more, spend time, and study you, for him to capture your beauty and create the masterpiece of his lifetime. You were the one worthy to be his art.

Is it a sin to admire another man’s wife? Albedo silently asks for forgiveness as something in his heart blooms, exciting him when he’s coming back to the palace.

He found his muse.

“Come in” You stop reading and await the servant’s words. She bows down and announces your unexpected visitor for the day.

“Your majesty. Mr. Albedo Kreideprinz requests for an audience with you.” To your surprise, you shut the book quickly and rack your mind for whatever reason did he have to visit you.

Biting your lip while the servant awaits your answer; you nod to her after a few minutes.

“This is a freshly brewed tea. Try it.” You motion for him to drink and he gracefully picks up the cup, tasting the tea after him to calm down your nerves. You slyly peek over the cup to see his reaction and immediately remove your gaze when he catches it.

As you scold yourself inside your mind, Albedo reveals straightforwardly what’s his purpose for visitation. He puts down the cup, sits properly, and studies your expression for him to drop the bomb.

“I would like to study you. If you do not mind.”

What? Some spurts of tea go to your dress while you cover your mouth from the shock. That was a disgraceful act to spew liquids in your mouth, but you don’t even care when you’re trying to process what he just said. Study? Study What? Study your body?—outrageous! Of course, you will mind.

“What do you mean?” You could only ask since you don’t want to be assuming, yet your feet are tapping in nervousness about what comes next. You don’t want him to be dragged to the dungeons for disrespecting the empress.

“I want you to be my muse for my next work. You being the face of my masterpiece will surely go down for centuries. So, please accept my humble request. If you need more details I can explain it-”

“Wait!”

Albedo bows his head down, pleading for the gods to make you answer him. If you reject him then he can’t do anything about it, so he’ll jump off a cliff instead.

“That’s certainly a big request.” Your tone was hesitant; ah…he needs to learn effective sales talk from those merchants.

“Is it? Do you need the emperor’s approval for it?” “Of course not!” Your eyebrows shot up, glaring at the man in front for even mentioning Pierro.

“Then why is the empress not taking up on my offer? It’s a very good deal for a monarch to leave a lasting mark on history. I could only take a photograph for your portrait yet it doesn’t match up to a painting.”

You sigh from his persistence. “It’s not that I do not want to. But I need to be cautious in dealing with people outside the palace.” You gesture to him. “Like you. This is the second time we’re meeting. How am I supposed to know your agenda?”

“Agenda? Your Majesty, I think you might have taken it the wrong way but I am in no place to harm you. I’m just an artist looking for the pinnacle of his lifetime.”

Albedo had to continue when you’re looking at him quite incredulously.

“I promise you. I dare not harm the object of my dreams.”

The painter is quite flowery with his words. Your heart and stomach felt funny from the flattery.

“Unless someone is holding the empress back. Perhaps the emperor-“

“He doesn’t have any say in what I do. Your offer seems good enough, so I’ll accept it.”

Albedo smirked in victory, he just found out your weakness. “It’s settled then, I’ll be coming often to your residence. I’m glad to have opportunities to be alone with you.” He expresses his gratitude by pulling your hand to his lips, kissing it for a long time until you pull away in embarrassment. “Yes. I’m looking forward to our cooperation.”

Days pass by with Albedo discussing how you’re going to portray the girl in his painting. He’s very meticulous in his work, projecting ideas that you can imagine, and always asking if it’s okay with you. Your knowledge of art is far from the painter’s but it’s lovely to learn something new every day.

“I’m thinking of a darker background because I want you to be the sole focus of the painting. What do you think? Also, don’t wear something extravagant, just wear what you feel comfortable in.”

“I’m okay with the background…. And I’m comfortable in those clothes too.”

“Yes, but sometimes the sparkly ones get dull.”

Every word that falls from his mouth has a different kind of impact on you. He knows what he says and uses it to affect his listener, making them feel different. At night, you’d lie down and repeat everything he said to you, words repeating in your ear and leaving a weird sensation in your heart.

It was like you were growing. Growing in the mind from the influence of another. You loved the feeling of being with him.

You anticipate the mornings for painting while Albedo welcomes you with a smile as he sets up his station in your drawing room.

“Are you sure this is the right place to gather inspiration? There’s a greenhouse that the maids recommended for ample sunlight.” You suggest. The luxurious interior of your palace was far from what he was trying to paint. He’s going for simplicity amidst the contradictory environment.

“It’s alright. I already checked the greenhouse and the sun was too strong. And the gardener was too polite. You should take care of your employees.”

Gardener? You sometimes hear the maids gushing about the gardener but you haven’t seen him yet. There’s nothing to see except for a few common flowers since it’s not yet blooming season.

“You make it sound like I’m a pushover” You cross your arms and eye him.

“I’m sorry. Please let me finish my artwork before throwing me into the dungeons.” His humor was also something you’d never heard before; Albedo was the breath of fresh air you needed.

The sun seeps through the curtains, butterflies tap against your windows, and the strokes of the brush against canvas the music to your ears. Your dress and earrings are still in place as you stiffly look at nowhere and just trust the painter with the process. You were definitely no muse from how inexperienced you were but Albedo doesn’t complain and just glances at you and then back to the canvas. Maybe art geniuses like him are a different breed.

He soon finishes for the morning and you finally stretch your poor limbs out. Moving freely in front of him like he’s a friend you’ve known for years.

Speaking of friends, how’s Itto doing by the way? He hasn’t visited you yet. And even Dottore who’s stuck in the Akademiya didn’t attend your wedding, nor gave you a gift. You kind of miss his spoiling. The thought of bullying him with your status etches a grin on your lips.

“Aren’t you curious?” Your thought disperses when Albedo speaks. “Huh?” “Why aren’t you peeking at the canvas?” He asks, a mischievous tint in his eyes giving him away.

“I don’t want to see something unfinished. I want to see the whole of it so I can judge your talent.” You reply and he nods in agreement.

“I thought you were beautiful when I first met you” Albedo suddenly states, dropping bomb comments are a habit of his. Your eyes widen in surprise from the sudden words he’s spewing. He raises a hand for him to continue and you shut yours meekly.

His small strides produce heartbeats that were abnormally fast.

“How could I not think that when you were dressed so elegantly, fitting of the throne. I’m sure everyone in that room thought you looked beautiful too. Everyone who saw you fell in love with you.” Albedo proclaims something so ridiculous that your eyes cast a shadow over them.

You laugh at his innocence. “No one’s heart is that easy to get. People don’t fall in love like that.”

“Fools fall in love easily.”

“What are you suggesting? The prince, the guard, and the emperor are all fools?”

“Yes”

Somehow, you agree with him. Pierro is a damn fool.

“I was ecstatic to paint everyone, especially you. But you seemed so tired already so I took a picture instead. And when I took it…you looked beautiful but I saw how hollow you are.” Albedo, with his hands inside his pocket, stops in front of you at a safe distance. It was not meant to be intimate but your gazes are saying otherwise.

“Those who can identify the emotion behind a picture would know that you’re empty inside. You’re a shell.”

He said you’re a shell. The metaphor for someone empty inside. So that’s what you’ve been feeling, you have everything physically but not emotionally.

Perhaps when you were born, you were already a shell.

“I don’t want the empress in this painting. You don’t need those overly fancy clothes. I just need a simple woman. I need Lady (y/n) (l/n), the one before the empress. Or rather, the one inside the empress.”

You scramble your mind for who you were before you rose to the throne. But you don’t think anything has changed. You were the same through and through.

“What if she doesn’t even exist?” You reply sarcastically to prove him wrong and the painter chuckles.

“The people around you have their own point of view. They see something you don’t.” Behind his cryptic words was a message you were currently trying to decode.

“And you? What about you?”

“What about me?” His eyebrows raised in confusion, a fake act you easily figured out.

“I think I just saw something others didn’t. I don’t think this is a simple painting at all.”

“Ah.” He licked his lip and clicked his tongue, your eyes naturally darting over the motion. Albedo then extends a hand, his head tilted to the side as he keeps his smile from going bigger.

“Dorian. An upcoming painter who’ll reveal his first work as a masterpiece at the empress’ birthday. He's looking forward to your support.”

end notes: Dorian is based on the leaks of susbedo's name. Susbedo is the other albedo in the 2.3 event Wild carrot or Queen Anne’s Lace is a historical contraceptive by using the seeds and brewing them for tea.

nothing makes albedo more insecure than his s/o being cold :(

of course he could make a potion or bundle them up more, and that’s exactly what he does,, but he secretly daydreams of cuddling and reading a book together when the snow is thick and the wind is especially fierce

if he could change anything about his little chalk body, he would want to be warmer,, for them <33

(Sfw) A day with Albedo

Characters: Albedo x GN!Reader

Warnings: None

WC: 943 words

For Albedo, the mornings in Dragonspine start with him hunched over his alchemy table as the sun rises. Beakers bubble and boil as steam rises through the air. Complete solitude and quiet-- the perfect environment for experimenting.

For you, the mornings in Dragonspine start with you making your way to Albedo's lab. When you arrive, his back is turned to you, clearly focused on the mess of papers and reports sprawled all over his table. You set down the basket of snacks you brought him, carefully approaching the alchemist so as to not make a sound.

By the time you were right behind him, he had yet to even acknowledge you. You watched him at first, observing the small movements of his body. How his hair shifts as he looks around his desk, and how his coat twists with his body. Deciding you finally want attention from Albedo, you reach over and gently grab him by his waist, wrapping your fingers around and digging them slightly into his sides. He lets out an uncharacteristic yelp in surprise, nearly dropping the test tubes he was holding. He looks back, about to snap at whoever just grabbed him, but the words die in his throat when he sees it's you, flashing him a cheeky smile.

"Oh, Y/N. Hello...do you enjoy startling others who are holding dangerous and unknown liquids?" He questions, slowly putting down the tubes. You giggle, shaking your head.

"I like watching you work. It's very calming. Maybe I can finish some work today!"

Albedo nods in acknowledgment, understanding the reason behind your visit.

"If you need anything, just ask."

✦✧✦✧

You both ended up getting lost in your work, not looking up from what you were both working on for hours on end. Albedo remained by his alchemy table while you sat at the writing desk, scribbling away on some reports. You two probably would've worked till sunset if it weren't for one thing: your stomach letting out a loud growl. You stop working at once, feeling your cheeks get hot.

"Maybe it's time for a snack. What do you think Albedo?"

You don't get an answer. Assuming he was still trapped by his experiments, you turn around to ask again. You're greeted by a slumped-over alchemist whose face was pressed on the table. His cheek was squished, forcing some drool to dribble out. The sight made your chest swell-- you knew the man didn't sleep much and the fact he felt comfortable enough to fall asleep with you nearby made you feel especially elated. You didn't have long to enjoy the moment because your stomach growled again, reminding you why you were trying to get the alchemist's attention in the first place.

You step closer and lean down, gently nudging his shoulder.

"Albedo, wake up. I'm a little hungry," you try, keeping your voice low. He stirs a bit, making a low rumbling sound as he rises from his slumber. His eyes flutter open, and he looks up at you as they regain focus.

"Y/N...did I fall asleep?"

You nod, watching as he slowly sits up properly, blinking the sleep away. His hair was slightly out of place-- some of the strands sprawled on his forehead.

"I apologize. I'm sure you're hungry-- the position of the sun indicates we've been here for quite a few hours. We can-"

He stops himself when he can feel your fingers on his forehead, gently swiping the hair strands away from his face. He watches you carefully as you tidy up his hair, picking up on your quiet humming. When you're done, you pull away and offer a small smile.

"Sorry, I just wanted to get that for you. I am in fact hungry though--let's eat!" You turn and walk off to grab your stuff. "I'm sure I have my portable stove and some ingredients to cook us something yummy."

Albedo watches on, slowly bringing his hand up to his head. The feeling of your fingers on his head remains and he can't help the fuzzy sensation traveling through his body.

✦✧✦✧

After a nice warm lunch, you both resume your work. Before long, the sun has start to set-- the day was coming to an end. You didn't want to travel back to Mondstadt at night, what with the cold and darkness, so you had gone ahead and packed your things.

"Thanks again for letting me stay and work here, 'bedo! I got a lot of work done," you thank Albedo, slinging your bag over your shoulder. "Can I come back another day?"

"You're always welcome here at my lab, Y/N. You never need to ask," he answers.

And he meant it-- you were respectful of his time and his need for complete focus. You treated passing adventurers with kindness and were always patient. And when you spoke to Albedo? There was this look of adoration that was always present in your eyes. And that nickname you sometimes called him-- 'bedo. How could he not want you by him?

"Thank you so much, 'bedo!" You reach over and squeeze his hands tightly in yours, smiling up at him. "I'll see you next time!"

With that, you were off-- you started sprinting down the snowy path back down the mountain, back towards Mondstadt where your house was. As Albedo watched you leave, he couldn't help but feel...sad. While he knew you would come back, he seemed no longer interested in continuing his experiment or updating his journal. Nothing seemed appealing without your presence next to his.

No matter, He muses to himself. I'll just prepare for their next visit.

Requests are open ✧˚~

CATCHING CRYSTALFLIES 🦋💗

Pairing: Albedo, Xiao (separately!) x gn!reader.

Genre/format: fluff (drabbles).

Warnings: tooth rotting fluff, first meet, shy Xiao n Albedo, pre-relationship

Summary: Ever caught butterflies laying eyes on someone you love? In Teyvat, you catch crystalflies.

Albedo

“Mr. Albedo, while I look after Klee my friend can help you with the experiment.” Sucrose informed him, “They are highly intelligent and well-worked in alchemy. I… I believe they are the perfect person to help you with your findings.”

Albedo pulled his eyes away from his scattered notes and bubbling beakers for the first time this morning, smiling slightly at the rare confidence in his assistance’s tone.

Albedo was about to politely decline the help, but the determination in Sucrose’s eyes had him reconsidering.

“Who is this friend?” He hummed, his gaze being pulled back to his beakers as if they magnets instead of glass. Lightly flicking a gloved finger against one he wished they were. He wouldn’t have to see the… uncooperative contents of them.

She answered with your name, an unfamiliar sound he was surprised to hear. Mondstadt was a small city, everyone knew everyone. Even a man like himself who spend most of his days at his camp’s desk in the snowy mountains of Dragonspine.

“I never heard of them before.”

“They…they prefer to keep to themself, nonetheless, I believe they will find the answer we’ve been searching for.”

Albedo only hummed, scurrying through another drawer. Usually he knew exactly what he was looking for, but everything he thought he needed wasn’t working. The sounds of rummaging paper, droppers, and brushes only irritated him further - not as much at the bubbling concoctions that shouldn’t be bubbling.

He dimly heard Sucrose’s sharp breath, until she stomped her foot and crossed her arms sternly. She had Albedo’s attention now.

“You must accept the help, Mr. Albedo. You must sleep tonight.”

Albedo blinked at her, mouth slightly agape. The only way he recognized it was her the referral of “Mr.” with his name Albedo nearly pleaded for her to drop.

He sighed. “Alright, then.”

With Sucrose off to take care of Klee and bid a goodbye to you, Albedo studied you. He had truly never seen you before, or heard of your work - and you didn’t seem like an Outlander.

He didn’t think someone could keep to himself better than him.

“Chief Alchemist Albedo, it’s a pleasure to meet you.” You greeted politely. “Sucrose has told me about your current…” you smile slightly, and Albedo dared to think it was smug.

“…predicament.”

“You may spare the formalities,” He said, slightly raising a brow. “Ah, do you perhaps…”

You were already inspecting his work, leaning in so close he could see the specks of snow on your lashes. With a startle he realized his rudeness - and quick to offer you a warm drink and an extra jacket for your troubles.

You ask for tea, as Albedo takes the opportunity to make another long over due coffee for himself as well. If he hadn’t fallen asleep waiting for the water to boil - he’d reckon he was only five minutes.

And in five, no more, no less - you had his concoctions simmer to the lightened tone like the Barbatos intended it to be. He nearly dropped the mugs when he saw you use a dropper to pinch some over the hard, nearly frozen soil of his camp.

If that wasn’t enough to bring his stomach to a flutter - A bright, summer flower sprouted in the harshest of winters - unfazed by the roaring winds and a stark contract to the snow and rock.

It only took Albedo a blink before numerous crystalflies danced around the flower, one resting on the petals - moving to a tune your lips smiled to.

“Beautiful,” he thought - and he wasn’t talking about the flower… or the crystalflies - not the ones in the air and certainly not the ones he caught.

Xiao

“Excuse me.”

He already knew someone was lingering, but he looked back anyways. You jumped slightly, and he narrowed his eyes at the unfamiliar face.

“Uhm… hello,” you smiled awkwardly, fiddling with something behind your back. Xiao straightened against the trunk, crossing his arms over his chest.

“Thank you very much!” You blurted, bowing your head and holding a plate in front of you.

The contents caught his attention - a delicious plate of almond tofu. Despite his grumbling stomach, he turned away slightly and watched the shimmering lake.

“Just doing my duty,” he answered, tone chilling. “I do not take food from strangers.”

“But Smiley Yanxiao isn’t a stranger, right?” You asked him - and he saw your smile out of the corner of his eye. For some reason, it was a nice smile as you told him your name.

“He helped me make this for you… as a thank you, for saving my village.”

“Your words are more than enough.” He said, “Goodbye.”

“Wha—! Wait—“

Xiao had vanished, leaving the meadow for a cool mountain side. Liyue rolled in flat plains wreathed in sharp mountain peaks the sun was beginning to set behind.

The clouds were loosing some of their white, painted with warm hues - fluffy like the plate of almond tofu you were holding. You even had topped it with two leaves like YanXiao always did, wondering if they were the same kind the wind took as it whistled through the trees.

Xiao shook his head slightly, brows furrowing. Why was he thinking of you?

“Archons,” you huffed like a curse, and the Yasksha nearly yelped. He watched in… awe as you stood from your—climb?—of the mountain and wiped sweat off your forehead.

“You’re a fast one!” You laughed while Xiao searched your person for a vision with his eyes. “How did you get up here so fast?”

“How did you?” Xiao sounded irritated despite your laughter fitting right in to the calming sounds of running water and cool, mountain breeze.

He cleared his throat, hoping his thoughts wouldn’t flutter away from him again. With a funny feeling in the man’s stomach, to his dismay, something else seemed to be fluttering harder.

Or maybe he was just hungry, as you miraculously held before him the same, very plate of almond tofu making his mouth water the second time.

His shock couldn’t be the only reason his face felt like he completed the climb you just did.

“Please accept my almond tofu!”

He huffed a “mortals🙄” under his breath as he swiftly making his way over to you. His fingers brushed yours as he took the plate from you. You watched him, not blinking, as he took the most smallest bite out of his favourite dish he ever thought he could.

Delectable, he thought, humming softly at the flavour - a perfect blend of sweet and salty dancing on his tongue to music to his tastebuds. He had to control himself not to devour the entire thing in front of you, hiding the curve of his lips behind his glove as he averted his gaze.

“Do you like it?” You asked eagerly, eyes sparking under the setting sun. “You look like you like it!”

“It’s…” he cleared his throat again, the funny feeling in his stomach returning. It came in the rhythm of the fluttering of the crystal-like birds overhead.

“It is quite nice, but… I will need to finish it all to be completely sure.”

You laughed. A sound so soft it didn’t just fit in with nature, but called it - as the birds overhead he realized we’re crystalflies. As he ate, he watched the light reflect off their wings - your eyes a similar golden.

Unlike them, the look you gave him when he finished and murmured his thanks would had shone in the dark.

“I’m so happy you like it.”

The fluttering feeling returned - you had him catching crystalflies.
