#alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

Kaveh: [glaring]

OG Trio: [hiding behind their doppelgangers & covering their ears]

Kaveh: It's 2 AM. Why are you all being loud.

Canon Alhaitham: Aren't you the one who's usually loud at this time? I always say—

Kaveh: [glaring harder] I know what you always say Alhaitham.

OG Trio: [panicking] What have you done?

Kaveh: [imitating Alhaitham] "Kaveh, you need to develop a healthy sleep cycle. Stop staying awake until three in the morning and get some sleep for once." Well I do stay awake late but at least I try to keep the volume level down. You all should at least give me the same courtesy—what's with those expressions?

Canon 4ggravate : What the fuck.

THIS IS PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!

the canon 4 thought that kaveh's "voice impressions" were just him mocking someone

they never expected it to be that exact.

poor canon alhaitham. now he's gonna be scared that canon kaveh can do that. though, the abject horror on canon kaveh's face should be enough to assure him otherwise.

#the canon genshin characters dont have enough trauma #we must give them more!!! >:D #kaveh's voice impressions #♡⊱a talks #genshin #kaveh #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

Kaveh: Alhaitham, here's your soup!

Alhaitham: [turning away]

Canon Alhaitham: Why are you giving him soup anyway?

Kaveh: He's sick. Alhaitham, drink the soup.

Alhaitham: [pulling the blankets up]

Kaveh: Alhaitham, if you don't drink the soup I'm going to mimic Cyno's voice until—

Alhaitham: [grabbing the soup frantically]

Canon Cyno: Wait, what do you mean mimic my voice?

kaveh: "you guys didn't think i could only do alhaitham's voice, did you? i can also do tighnari's voi-"

literally everyone: "NO"

alhaitham tried yelling as well, but now his throat is even worse, and he choked on his soup.

this is why he doesn't like soup.

if it was solid food, he wouldn't've choked on it that easily.

#this keeps getting better and better!!! #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh #alhaitham #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

The canon selves would wonder why those three are insistently reminding them to not provoke Kaveh into mimicking someone you will regret it please do not make us hear it

What's the big deal? It's not like Kaveh's going to do anything other than a silly impression of their voice and oh no whoops they accidentally woke Kaveh up and now he's going to scold them for being noisy and use Alhaitham's words

The og trio just covers their ears and tries their best not to listen

THEY HAD TO LEARN THE HARD WAY

"oh please you guys are over exaggerating the entire situation"

"nevermind we were very wrong"

i feel like canon kaveh would really not like the voice impressions. because "why is ALHAITHAM'S VOICE coming from MY BODY-"

and then the kaveh that does the impressions is just like "oh come on dont tell me you're freaked out by it too!"

#“are you saying that you /cant/ do basic voice impressions???” #“NO I VERY MUCH CANNOT PLEASE TAKE ALHAITHAMS VOICE OUT OF YOUR MOUTH ITS WEIRD-” #♡⊱a talks #kaveh's voice impressions #♡⊱a answers #answers #genshin #kaveh #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

Kaveh reads people so well that within minutes of meeting their other selves he can accurately tell which ones are his trio and which ones are the other trio

tighnari: wait, which one of them is our cyno?

c!alhaitham: it's impossible to tell the difference. they're completely identica-

kaveh: *points at c!cyno* that's the cyno from your world, *points at cyno* that's the one from this world.

alhaitham: how did-

c!kaveh: also, you were talking to my tighnari. yours is still crying in the corner over mehrak's hologram.

c!kaveh: how are you guys getting eachother confused so easily? its obvious who's who.

(it was not obvious)

#kaveh's first interest: architecture #kaveh's second interest: psychology and human behavior #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

Cyno: Can we please go to bed? Alhaitham has to do a speech first thing in the morning.

Canon Alhaitham: He can't talk.

Tighnari: That's why we're having Kaveh do the speech for him. Behind a curtain. Again. Unfortunately.

Canon Kaveh: [trembling] Wh—how did you even get him to agree to that?

Cyno: We promised that Alhaitham would approve the Ksharewar funding requests, isn't that right Alhaitham?

Alhaitham: [hoarsely] Go fuck yourself Cyno.

OH YEAH I FORGOT ALHAITHAM WAS STILL SICK THIS MAKES IT EVEN BETTER

now canon kaveh is jealous. how come the version of him with the freaky alhaitham voice get funding for his darshan???

alhaitham grabbing something to write on and saying "I didn't agree to it, it was Cyno who said it." as a sort of explanation to canon alhaitham

canon kaveh: "wait, again? what do you mean again???"

tighnari: "yeah the akademyia has been pretty busy recently, and alhaitham has been sick like this for a few days now."

cyno: "it was actually alhaitham who suggested bringing kaveh in as a replacement for his voice."

alhaitham: *writing on paper* "I had no other choice. I couldn't reschedule.

#canon 4ggravate sitting backstage while alhaitham and kaveh do the speech like “wtf how is that working” #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

If they met their canon selves I think that would be fun

First they have to deal with hearing Kaveh speaking like them and now these doppelgangers look, talk, and act like them

Kaveh makes it worse because he has no hesitations in imitating others plus he's the first to befriend himself

Alhaitham would hate hearing his voice coming from Kaveh but he would probably also like the fact that another Alhaitham is getting traumatized

oh they would freak out

they wouldnt be able to tell if their voice was coming from kaveh, or the other version of them, or if it was actually them talking.

they cant tell which kaveh is theirs and which is the new one. which makes it even worse!

meanwhile the canon ones would have no idea whats happening

[mynameis-a]

Imagine one of the canon characters runs into Alhaitham in the middle of the night and gets terrified bc of his glowing eyes

c!alhaitham thought that kaveh would be the most terrifying thing in this world.

he was wrong.

he is now scared of himself.

kaveh just looking at the now extra-scared c!alhaitham and saying something like "i told you there were worse things than me doing your voice!!!"

#alhaitham doesnt know why its terrifying to people #some animals have glowing eyes and nobody is afraid of them #(which is wrong on 2 levels but thats just how he views it) #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

Kaveh: *hugging Mehrak* Why are you so scared of the holograms? It's not like they can hurt you!

Tighnari: Do you know how weird it is to see yourself like that?

Kaveh: [gesturing to C!4ggravate] What about them?

Tighnari: That's…kind of different.

Alhaitham: It was apparently a bad decision on their Alhaitham's part. Something I don't intend to make in the future.

Kaveh: Alhaitham, you're always making bad decisions.

Alhaitham: I do not.

Kaveh: Oh, really?

Trio: [instant regret]

Kaveh: [imitating Alhaitham] "Kaveh, I left some books outside on the benches and it just started to rain. I'm going out to save them so they don't get destroyed. Stop worrying, I'm not going to get sick because of one minute in the rain. I'll be fine." And look where that got you. Sick enough that you should still be in bed and yet you're still running around doing god knows what and without a voice through it all!

c!alhaitham: what the hell..

c!kaveh: WHY DID ALHAITHAMS VOICE COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH LIKE THAT

kaveh: can you not do basic impressions? i thought you were me.

c!kaveh: NO I CANT WHAT RHE FUCK

c!cyno: so this is why you were warning us about him.

cyno: yeah, its really bad.

kaveh: oh, so now my impressions are BAD??? i guess i’ll just have to practice a bit mo-

everyone: NO

alhaitham: *frantically shaking his head no*

#kaveh doesnt understand #how can his impressions be bad AND accurate at the same time? #it doesnt make sense to him #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

Maybe Kaveh left Mehrak out and she's displaying a hologram of one of them and Tighnari gets scared when he sees it as they all come into the house

“i think i’ll let mehrak wander the house a bit while i work. what’s the worst that could happen?”

*loud screaming coming from the entrance*

“*sighs* god damnit mehrak.”

kaveh goes out to apologize to everyone for whatever mehrak did and finds: one sick alhaitham, one not-sick alhaitham, 2 cynos, 2 tighnari’s, a third tighnari summoned by mehrak, and kaveh.

kaveh is also screaming now alongside the others because wHY ARE THERE TWO OF YOU GUYS WHY IS THERE ANOTHER ME WHAT IS HAPPENING AAAAAAAAAAAA

and mehrak is just floating there smiling, without a single thought going through her mind.

#mehrak is like a puppy who just brought her owner a dead duck that she found and she has no idea what she’s done wrong #‘hello i brought you something :D oh you’re getting loud! does this mean its play time? are we playing?? i love playing with you :D’ #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

C!Alhaitham: It's so dark in here.

Alhaitham: [taps his shoulder] What are you doing?

C!Alhaitham: [turns to see glowing eyes]

C!Alhaitham: [loud screaming]

alhaitham: *turns on the lights* was that screaming really nessicary? you've just woken the others.

c!alhaitham: *still in shock* i take back what i said about kaveh being the scariest person in this world

#everyone else runs into the room wondering what the fuck happened to make alhaitham scream like that #neither is saying anything about it #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga #kaveh's voice impressions

[mynameis-a]

Tighnari: What happened?

Alhaitham: Nothing. Go back to bed. [turns off lights again]

Other C!Characters: [terrified shrieking] YOUR EYES!

kaveh: I TOLD YOU GUYS THAT HE WAS SCARIER THAN ME

alhaitham: you are all overreacting.

kaveh: oh, like how you overreact with my impression of you??

alhaitham: that is a different situation entirely.

*canon typical kaveh-alhaitham bickering insues while the canon characters are all still panicking*

#i feel like the tighnaris would be the most calm about it #i mean #foxes (most animals to be honest) have that thing in their eyes that reflects light #so they also kinda have the glowey eye thing #but their eyes dont actually give off light like alhaithams does #and they dont like or understand it #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga #kaveh's voice impressions

[mynameis-a]

Tighnari: I don't know why you're not getting better right now. You were starting to heal before these guys showed up.

Alhaitham: It's their fault, then.

Tighnari: It could probably just be a coincidence. But I'd probably have to ask Cyno if ley lines can adverse effects on certain illnesses.

Alhaitham: [turns to glare at his counterpart] I hate you. So much.

the alhaithams would be death glaring at eachother-

they might be the same* person, but that doesnt mean they get along well

now c!alhaitham is going to be blamed for something that was at least 68% his fault.

#*there are some differences between the 2 alhaithams #but its very minor things #like purring and his eyes glowing in the dark a bit #i mean this is the headcanonverse i have to shove my haitham headcanons into it too #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

I forgot Alhaitham is still sick 😭

Is he ever going to get better I almost feel bad for him but then I remember how unfortunately funny his situation is

i keep forgetting too 😭😭😭 poor scribe

i'm gonna just say that the sickness is caused by whatever leyline bullshit c!alhaitham messed with because i don't know how else he's not getting any better

#when in doubt #blame alhaitham #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

Cyno: Do you just have extra clothes for us lying around?

Kaveh: Yes! Nilou helped me pick them out! I have even more packed away. Don't you think you guys look great?

they would be surprised at just how perfect the outfits are

it's almost like they were specifically tailored to the trio's tastes! (maybe because they were)

#“i'm not wearing whatever random things you have in your closet” #*the clothes are what they like* #“nevermind this is nice” #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

What if they bought clothes from a thrift store and altered them

Nilou is canonically a theatre kid and theatre kids are known for being able to make super cool custom clothes for their performances so she could help Kaveh customize the clothes

YES

kaveh knows that the others have very specific tastes in clothing (i mean just look at their outfits) so custom-tailored outfits are the way to go!

i'm picturing them having a girls night sleepover while they fix the outfits for the others and tell funny stories about recent events and oh my god they're so cute

#be it platonically or romantically #kaveh and nilou are adorable together #it is a fact of the universe #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga

[mynameis-a]

Did Kaveh go shopping w Nilou for the clothes

That would be so cute

YES HE DID

honestly they would have so much fun looking at outfits together

unlike a certain scribe, they both can appreciate good aesthetics.

they would make sure that the clothes look good!

(plus nilou isnt scared of kaveh which would make it a lot easier for both of them)

#this is why i ship them #theyre just so cute together #(not shipping them in this au though) #♡⊱a talks #♡⊱a answers #kaveh's voice impressions #alhaitham fucks up the leylines: the saga
