Ok, first, what the fuck was that conversation. Childe, you cannot just infodump and leave, it's not good writing. Childe?

Paimon: ooh, it sounds like some kind of ghost story dear Paimon, everything about this guy sounds like some kind of ghost story. he LOOKS like some kind of ghost story. this isn't exactly news.

Also that awkward moment when you can't decide whether it's abysmally bad writing or if a certain someone is just being manipulative (and bad at it but when has being bad at something ever stopped this boy). Leaning towards the second option because of the Smug Expression and also everything else in this patch is impeccably written.

Noticed that I become worried when he speaks in "normal" voice without his usual flatness. When Childe starts behaving like a normal human being you know you are in trouble. He wants something from you.

(and then The Expression happened)

#still unsure whether the infodumping part was manipulation #it has to be that #right? #or it would be really bad writing #but he spoke in his usual dull way at that point #but also why tell us that #alternative: his brain is getting progressively scrambled by whatever tf is wrong with him #hilichurl iq childe when #✧･ﾟcorruption arc✧･ﾟ #childe #tartaglia #fontaine spoilers #genshin impact spoilers #also the way he provoked those guys #that tiiiny glint of mischief before annoying someone #oh darling #why are you like that

// Hoyo really needs to make it so the overworld in cutscenes is set to the default one because I had used Zhongli's E in the fight prior to this cutscene and it kind of ruins the moment when it feels like the pillar is talking to you instead. xD

#;; the admin speaks #// also the amount of times my Lumi has died because some Hilichurl spotted her right before the cutscene started

#theres like three options right? #normal eye that he didnt keep hidden until he had his fight with diluc and he hides it now bc theres a scar #eye showing signs of that curse pureblooded khaenriahns have (theres some explanation for him having it and not being #a hilichurl despite most likely not being pure blooded khaenriahn im sure) #and then theres him having covered the eye all his life both before and after the scar bc of what seems to be khaenriahn customs #what the hell do i go with with this =.= (ignoring whatever we're shown of young kaeya in the manga btw) #idk which one i like most... #again a silly problem to have but yknow between everything else popping up lately id rather have this than a real problem

Honestly, even when I add a new verse for the oc(s) and work them into a still-expanding canon, I like to think their presence in the area/time of the narrative is best justified as essentially them running a B-plot in a sitcom to the main quests/protagonists' journeys. Or like. Half the shit Team Rocket gets up to in the movies-

fuck genshin for making me kill hilichurls

#like ive always been :( about it but today i got the language commission for the first time #and then had to go do MORE hilichurl camp slaughtering commissions AFTER ! #fuck this game #dainsleif is right about everything #quil genshin tag #while im at it slimes are way too cute and i hate fighting them also

[gumidols]

I think that since heizou is practically a physical he should be allowed to bonk enemies heads with his catalyst. as a treat.

#pulls out the widsith and smacks a hilichurls head with it #the right that all mages should get #shikanoin heizou #genshin impact #my(s) posts

[frozenambiguity]

Really hurts to think that Kaeya is one of the few survivors of a nation that was the victim of mass genocide, and although he has found a place in Mondstadt, he still feels inadequate and like he does not belong after all these years ( or perhaps this is more of a mental cage he forcefully and deliberately shuts himself in ).

Also hurts to think that he has forced himself to numb his feelings to the point of viewing hilichurls not as his own people ( that fell victim to the curse ), but... as something else altogether now.

#{{ I always take him along on Ella Musk commissions whenever she wants to communicate with hilichurls }} #{{ idk it just feels right. }} #{{ thinking..... thoughts. }} #【 isms | heart of the abyss. 】

[fandoms-spamdom]

did i ever tell u how much i love albedo. he was my phone theme for a while. and and hes been a dream cosplay since his release. and i know all of his lore and id die for him and

HE’S AMAZINF I LOVE HIM

#I went walking around to test his skills and AHHHHHHH #Slayinf hilichurls left and right #I rarely go in domains but I may go talk a little stroll in one

[festive]

me thinks.. the two nps I really wanna beat up are reckless pallad and tirzad.

#they both get on my nerves #reckless pallad never does anything right #it should be a lil side quest to let him get beat up by hilichurls #and Tirzad don’t ever shut up

[rubys-domain]

you know... i don't think i'm gonna start the fontaine archon quest right away. i'm probably gonna skirt around and just trek through the wilds of fontaine first before doing anything else

#⇢₊˚⊹ 🩷∥ruby∥yo，ide yo !! #i'm also finally gonna employ that strategy that murderofbirds did when he explored liyue #which is to light one area of the map at a time. and only light up the next area when you've gotten 100% exploration in the previous area #lighting everything up in mondstadt all at once feels manageable because it's still a fairly small area #but liyue and anything bigger is just... yeah #i started playing when sumeru was already released. and i just wanted to see all the beautiful sights #so i lit up pretty much the entirety of mondstadt liyue and sumeru within my first two weeks of playing #yes，even with my baby stamina bar and no kazuha #yes it was a struggle. but it was worth it honestly #it also made progressing through the archon quests easier for me #since the waypoints were already lit up and i wasn't forced to progress entirely on foot #also. it might actually be a blessing that my characters aren't crazy strong yet #this way i still don't feel like the combat is “too easy”. like yeah hilichurls and shit are small fry for sure. but there's still enemies- #-that i struggle to beat #i feel like i'm very slightly below the right amount of strong for maximum enjoyment of this game #i'm pretty satisfied with my other main dps's being “strong enough” in my own eyes #my cyno doesn't need to kill the shogun in 5 seconds for example #he just needs to be strong enough for bosses to feel satisfying to fight and not a struggle #i mean he already makes andrius feel like an overgrown mitachurl so he's not too far off #still gonna turn chong into a goddamn beast tho; that goes without saying #besides，this way i don't have to bend over backwards for literally everyone's artifacts #i can focus solely on turning chongyun into the cryo archon #this is also the first time i'm only pulling on the weapon banner and not pulling on the character banner at all #(on main anyway. on the alt i'm pulling on both and it's not the most ideal situation) #i'm not particularly hurting to have yelan rn. and if i'm getting lyney it'll probably be on my alt since it's pretty much pyro central #and to me he's more of a “sure it'd be fun if i had him cuz he seems like a pretty cool dude” than a “holy shit i need to pull him NOW” #so i don't really need to get him from his debut banner. i can get him in his reruns #and i don't really mind the possibility of never getting him because honestly，i probably wouldn't be able to do him justice build-wise #the longer i play this game without it，the less valuable welkin becomes #i already don't want that many characters so yeah. at some point all it'll do for me is make resin refreshes cheaper

give me thoughts on your favorite traveler and playable character duo

#please . i am in brainrot about hu tao and lumine. literally writing a fic but i need inspiration and some more fun and funky thoughts #about other traveler friendship pairs/dynamics bc i need to think more about the traveler lol #the logic between funeral head daughter and fallen star personified is that. traveler is a sibling right they do sibling things like playing #jokes on each other and being petty and play fighting etc don't you think they'd fucking love ht once they got to know her #lumine gets to be just a little bit silly with ht there are just some people you can take it easier with you know #both of them can take things seriously too; they just know they don't have to all the time life would be too dull like that #anyways the conclusion is that more fics should be written where ht and lumi go out and just fool around all day. run around on wuwang hill #pretend to sing to hilichurls fall into the grass laughing at ht's improv rhymes race each other on wing gliders after lumi told ht she used #to be able to fly; they should be able to be easy around each other do you feel me #my other lovely traveler pair is with xingqiu because that kid needs to be bullied (affectionate) #his voicelines about/to traveler are SO FUCKING FUNNY sworn siblings? you bet forget kae.ya and dil.uc xq and traveler clearly the better du #duo /hj he sings a little song on your birthday gets embarassed/flustered/slightly panicked when you talk abt his true ambitions like idk wh #what to say i just think theyd be so funny together. i need more xq and traveler interactions pls #ramblings!

favorites pt2

this is mostly self indulgent. just fontaine being my favorite. this is an alternate version with imposter au creator! reader.

Maybe it was childish in the eyes of others that you preferred Fontaine over every other nation. You had been ridiculed and branded as an imposter in Mondstadt, you had been nearly killed in Liyue, had been nearly killed again in Inazuma, you didn't neven want to talk about Sumeru.

You didn't want to even think about the Fatui or their reigning Archon, The Tsaritsa. Fontaine had been the first place that you ran to that didn't try to kill you or accuse you of a heinous crime. You had nearly broken down crying at the realization that the residents of Fontaine weren't going to hurt you.

You looked out at the rain, watching it fall with trembling hands as you sat at a table, having tea with Furina and Neuvillette.

"....Your Grace?" Neuvillette called your attention softly, staring at you with a concerned look as he took notice of your trembling hands. "Are you alright?"

It was overwhelming. This was the first time you'd been asked if you were okay since the moment you arrived in Teyvat. It was.... strange. In a horrible way, running and avoiding death was something you got used to. you used to hide in caves and amongst the hilichurls for a moments of respite and look at your scars.

Your shaken eyes stared down at your scarred hands, "Um... Yes... I'm fine." It sounded like a lie from your lips. You weren't fine. Fontaine had refused to hunt you down, and the moment you entered it's borders, Fontaine protected you. Furina, Clorinde, and Neuvillette protected you and comforted you. Why was Fontaine the first to protect you? Were people truly that cruel?

Furina's eyes noticed your shaken state and she exchanged a look with Neuvillette. "Your Grace, please try the cake! It's of highest quality, as is everything and everyone that graces my table." Smugness radiated from her as she pushed the piece of cake towards you, eager to get you to eat something, anything.

You looked up towards her as her presence calmed you down from your anxiety. Your shaky hand reached for the fork. "Is it really okay for me to be here, won't it cause problems with the other nations?"

"Forget about those guys! Those Archons have rotting brains and feeble bodies. They should have just turned to dust instead." Furina scoffed as she rolled her eyes. "I don't really care about them, Fontaine welcomes you and we'll protect our beloved creator." She smiled at her and you relaxed slowly as you looked down at your cake before taking a bite.

"...!" Your eyes widened as you stared down at the slice of cake. "....It's good." You commented quietly, not noticing the pleased look on both Neuvillette and Furina's face.

"Everyone here treasures you, Your Grace. You don't have to worry about anything and everyone who has hurt you will never be able to come here so easily. Rest easy and enjoy all the things we have to offer you." Neuvillette's voice was soothing as you found yourself nodding.

Yes.... you did like Fontaine.... You liked being in Fontaine...

Okay, you liked slightly less now that you were in an actual prison.

"Why are going to a prison?" You asked Neuvillette, nervous as you shifted in the lift you were in. You tugged your jacket closer to your frame as you looked up at the man who had been by your side since you had arrived in Fontaine. "I'm... not being arrested, right?"

"No, of course not, Your Grace. You haven't done anything wrong in the slightest. This is the Fortress of Meropide. The administrator of this place, Wriothesley is a personal friend. I thought you should be introduced to him as well as you have decided to reside in Fontaine for now.

Before you could respond, the lift opened and you really weren't sure how to feel about this place.

You shyly waved to those who you past. They were all staring at you, it was a little unnerving but it didn't feel like they disliked you.

You currently found yourself in an office as said man, (Wriothesley was what Neuvillette called him) poured you tea. "It's chamomile tea, Your Grace. You seem a little nervous." The man smiled at you which only made a blush of embarrassment appear on your cheeks.

You wondered if anyone was ever disappointed when they learnt that you were the Creator of this world, you didn't fit the title of All Powerful. Your time being hunted had made you skittish and paranoid.

You looked to the side as Sigewinne, the Melusine that Neuvillette told you about entered and your hear jumped. You had always been fond of cute things and Sigewinne was cute, you had always been fond of children.

"Hello, Your Grace!" She smiled at you happily and you swore you could cry. She was so cute....

You quickly averted your eyes, to try and keep your composure, to not seem strange, "Um, hello to you too." You greeted her, the shyness leaving you as a soft smile curled at you lips.

You kept the steaming cup in hand, not yet drinking it.

"Their Grace has decided to reside in Fontaine for the moment as we sort out the issue with the other Archons." Neuvillette quietly informed Wriothesley while you were enamored with Sigewinne and talking to her quietly. "It will most likely be a drawn out affair. The other Archons will likely not admit their wrong doings." Neuvillette frowned, which was mimicked by Wriothesley.

You were oblivious to their conversation as you talked quietly to Sigewinne about the sights you had seen so far. "Neuvillette and Furina have been making sure my meals are good enough."

"I'll write out a detailed meal plan so you can recover quickly!" Sigewinne seemed happy to be able to do something for you and you couldn't refuse her after seeing her excitement.

Your eyes softened as you smiled. "I'll make sure to follow it fully."

Yeah... Fontaine was great.... You didn't mind staying her for a while...

Monster, Treasure Hoarder, or Fatui, it’s always the same–Hu Tao would hold a tiny, private little funeral ceremony for them upon ending their lives in times it’s the only way out or if she otherwise wounds them enough to leave their fate unavoidable. She will even choose to stay with them in the case of the latter, keeping them company as they breathe their last. It has gotten her several reactions from them, particularly the Fatui she’s fought–defensive walls, outright hostility and curses on her name, questions of why she would do this for an enemy.

She explains it the same every time: that she believes everyone deserves a proper sendoff, leaving them without one the cruelest form of punishment. Every time, she follows it up with apologies, saying the graves she leaves would have to be unmarked lest they be desecrated, unless they are willing to give her their names and ranks to better send mementos of them to their people back in Snezhnaya/their homelands or ( if they are willing enough ) to locations of their nearest comrades so they, too, may mourn them. Anything to make the inevitable grief of their family and friends a little easier, and to ensure they are properly remembered.
