cw: none! just silly headcanons. 100% crack
includes: kaveh, kazuha, columbina, kirara, kaeya, cyno, ayato, wanderer, xiangling, xingqiu, mika, layla, nilou, chongyun, thoma, childe, itto, dehya, dottore, albedo, lyney, bennett, ganyu, venti, furina, zhongli, neuvillette, candace, collei, arlecchino (that's a lot)
a/n: this was a shower thought after watching the sumeru cast play the game agfsghjs
knows everything about the game
↳ kaveh, kazuha, columbina, kirara, kaeya
⇢ already has a “boss” pin on their in-game uniform when you play together for the first time
⇢ is the one that chooses which moons you guys go to. also buys all the resources (flashlights, walkie-talkies etcetc) bc they don't trust anyone else to do it
⇢ could probably speedrun the game if they wanted to, they have like every map memorized
⇢ if they die you’re ALL fucked. good luck
⇢ always brings back the dead bodies no matter what (says it’s for the quota but actually just feels bad leaving you guys there)
mostly there for the laughs but is maybe surprisingly pretty good at the game
↳ cyno, ayato, wanderer, xiangling, xingqiu
⇢ don’t let them find the airhorn/clown horn unless you want them to destroy your eardrums
⇢ somehow Always encounters monsters. but they get out alive (most of the time)
⇢ has died to quicksand and gotten clowned for it in the vc with other dead people in it
⇢ when you go sell items on the last day they ring the bell repeatedly to provoke The Worm to make everyone panic
⇢ scares you on purpose. may or may not have gotten themselves killed by you beating them to a pulp because you got jumpscared by them one too many times
always on edge, even before the game starts
↳ mika, layla, nilou, chongyun, thoma
⇢ gets the “most paranoid employee” note when you all come back from a moon
⇢ most likely to sacrifice themselves (to finally catch a break)
⇢ screams a lot. has gotten eaten by eyeless dogs more times than u could count
⇢ sticks with you so they’re less scared (but their paranoid Vibe just makes you scared too)
⇢ the one that dies first or is the last one standing. either way they're stressed and can't think properly
your personal guard dog
↳ childe, itto, dehya, dottore, albedo
⇢ “strength in numbers!” they say right before a thumper mauls the shit out of them
⇢ designated enemy killer. carries around a weapon to smack them with it (their weapon of choice is a yield sign)
⇢ has saved you from a snare flea stuck to your head multiple times (always expects a “thank you”. they bonk you if you don’t say it)
⇢ walks in front of you to scope out danger
⇢ also sometimes very tempted to beat you with their weapon just to fuck with you (dottore finishes the job)
the lost puppy
↳ lyney, bennett, ganyu, venti, furina
⇢ gets “laziest employee” every single time because they never find any scrap to bring back to the ship
⇢ has an awful sense of direction in the game and somehow loses sight of you even when you're exploring the moon together
�� gets grounded by your group and is tasked to guide people in the facility through the cams with their walkie talkie
⇢ their inventory is always full but only with useful items like a pro flashlight, a walkie talkie and a ladder
⇢ speaking of ladders, they've accidentally fallen in a hole multiple times and that's why they always need a ladder on them. to get themselves out.
bonus: watches you play!
↳ zhongli, neuvillette, candace, collei, arlecchino
⇢ watches the game either very invested or very confused
⇢ may or may not backseat without realizing it
⇢ contributes to the bits (not on purpose: zhongli, neuvi. on purpose: candace, collei, arle)

The company I work for is international and has a lot of different people working in/around/with it---not to mention that every division has slightly different ways of referring to the same groups of people (think "customers" vs. "clients" or "business partners" vs. "vendors"). In response to all this vocabulary shifting, I have adopted the most American approach possible:
Everybody gets referred to as "folks."
.........this does have the added bonus of making the Europeans lose their ever-loving minds, which I think is funny only fair.
