๑ Realizing love is there...

Xiao x male!reader, Venti x male!reader and Kaeya x male!reader (separated)

Category: [Fluff/sfw]

Warnings: Mention of Zhongli (Xiao's part). Zhongli calls Xiao "child". Mention of Kaeya (Venti's part), mention of Diluc (Venti's part), Venti is drunk for half his part. Mention of alcohol. Mention of Rosalia, Klee, Jean, Diluc and Lisa in Kaeya's part. Reader is mentioned but doesn't actively participates in it.

Request: Yes / No | From: 🕸️ anon.

«Hello, you can call me 🕸 anon! Can you write Xiao, Venti and Kaeya realizing they have a crush on the reader? Ty !»

Waaa! My first emoji anon! 🥰 I'm so happy- welcome!

「 ✦ XIAO ✦ 」

Xiao had been an adeptus for longer than he could properly remember, and the feeling of «love», in romantic contexts, wasn't something he was familiar with.

He's seen countless couples in his years of existence, but he never quite grasped the concept of what it meant to love someone outside of family.

That human desire to kiss someone? That need of multiple actions he could not wrap his head on? He was clueless.

Perhaps that was why he didn't know what that heat on his chest meant. That feeling of something tugging at his heart and filling him with that sort of anxiety that left him on guard.

What confused him the most was that you were the cause of it. Had you cursed him some way without him realizing?

He even managed to believe you were a threat.

Of course, confused as to why the ever so calm adeptus was acting on edge with you, Zhongli decided to ask Xiao what was happening.

The god found himself amused when Xiao explained the situation to him.

"Ah, my dear child. I believe I know what id that you're feeling." Zhongli hummed, muffling a small chuckle that dared escape his lips. "Fear not, as it is not dangerous."

"Huh? If it's not dangerous, what is it?" Xiao asked, frowning slightly at the consistent incognita of what was that feeling you caused.

"Mm, I believe the simplest term of it would be «love», Xiao."

Safe to say, if his entire life didn't already gave him existencial crisis on a daily basis, trying to come to terms with the idea of falling in love was surely passing with five stars its debut.

From that day, he started to study you. Trying to figure out if what Morax explained to him was accurate, and if so, how.

And soon enough, he found himself admiring little things you did. How you acted around others, how your personality was like.

So this was what love felt? To wish to admire you, close or from afar, as long as you kept being true to yourself?

If that was it... Love might not be that bad after all.

He wouldn't confess though, not until he manages to understand better how to process his feelings. Just because he understood what love felt like, didn't meant he understood how to act with it.

It would probably take a while, but he was patient. He just hoped you could wait for him too.

「 ✦ VENTI ✦ 」

The God of Freedom had been a free soul his entire life. And while he had experienced the cons and pros of it, the lost and happiness of friends and people he could even consider family, he never had fallen in love with someone.

And oh dear archons if he had fallen hard for you.

The wind was free, yet somehow he had never felt as free as when he was with you.

As a Mondstadt citizen, he would usually see you as one of his children. But he couldn't help but see you, not as his child, but as a companion to his free life.

"Isn't he divine?" The god murmured softly as he watched you from afar.

Kaeya hummed with humor as she watched the Anemo Archon look so helplessly in love while he was drunk in the Angel's share.

"I suppose he is," Kaeya replied, amused.

The god knew what love meant. What it implied.

He also knew what it implied for him to fall in love with a mortal that wouldn't be able to live more than a few decades.

But as he watched you from afar; the man that managed to get his full attention like the best wine, he decided that the consequences were worth it.

"If you like them so much, why don't you go ahead and confess?" Diluc replied as he cleaned one of the glasses.

"Eh? But what if he rejects me Master Diluc?" Venti pouted as he rested his head on top of the counter.

"Then it wasn't meant to be." Diluc's replied calmly, a small frown on his face as he watched the drunk bard. "Now stop drinking before you embarrass yourself more than average."

"Master Diluc is cruel."

"So I've been told."

Needless to say, to confess to you he had to be:

Drunk.

He had to count with someone's (Diluc's) help.

It's a miracle he managed to get you to date him.

「 ✦ KAEYA ✦ 」

He was quick to realize he liked you. The Calvary Captain of the Knights of Favonius could be slightly flirty if he wanted, and therefore knew how exactly certain feelings felt like.

But realizing he was in love for you, that had been a rollercoaster for him.

You were an incredible man. And the times he caught a glimpse of your smile he couldn't help but feel like he was just falling harder for your presence.

He smiled at the slight mention of your name. And would try to take care of you when you needed it the most.

Of course, this also meant he got free teasing from Lisa, Jean and Rosalia.

Also Klee's questions about if you were his boyfriend, or husband, or if you were already dating.

He might have heard Lisa laugh more times in his crushing-for-you time than in the whole time he had met Lisa.

"If you know you like them, why don't you confess already then?" Rosalia asked him while they were getting drinks at Angel's share

"I want it to be a more perfect moment."

"When it includes you? I doubt that's possible," Diluc commented as he served another client.

"That's a bit cruel even for you, Master Diluc."

So he does try to plan for it to be perfect. He slowly manages to get stuff you like, wanting to be a good time between both of you.

He almost messes all of it up (Diluc has premonition powers now???), but was able to not mess it up at last minute.

Perhaps Barbaros was on his side that day.

"Live a human life with me," You had once suggested to Rex Lapis, lounging on a floating island and watching the construction of what would eventually be known as Liyue Harbor.

He turns to you, confused look on his face, "A human life? Honestly, your ideas only develop in oddity over time."

You laugh, shrugging as the wind chimes along with you. Did Barbatos find it amusing as well?

"I'm being serious, Morax! The war is over, peace is settling, any issues can be handled by the humans and we can always guide them from a distance." You smile, "Live a human life with me. We can open a teahouse by the outskirts, we can visit the harbor on weekends, we can age ourselves and spend a human's lifetime together!"

He sighs, turning away, "I'll amuse you and visit you in my human form, but I have responsibilities I wish to take as their archon. You can play human without me."

"Aww, Morax-"

He rolls his eyes, amused, "Human lives are so fickle and short. Should you ever get tired of living their ways, you're welcome to join me in the skies again."

"Hmp. You might just regret not trying with me." You tease, and you—

Were right. He did regret it, because there was no time left for him to try with you. You were gone, eroded like the old immortals, withered in a grave like a human. The immortality of gods like you and him was never physical after all, and your body decayed too soon.

"So, finally decided to join the bandwagon, huh?" Venti grins at the geo archon, sipping from his drink of what's presumably wine. The teahouse is half full, a known heritage site for anyone who knows the history of good Liyuen tea.

"It's an interesting idea." Zhongli simply replies.

"And how are you finding the human life, my dear friend?"

"Strangely. . . I had expected it to be a sociable endeavor," He smiles, strained, "but it could also feel quite lonely."

T H O M A

Doing laundry and taxes with Thoma was impossible in the first place. Not when you were destined to marry someone of the same status; a political engagement which tied you down since the day you turned of age.

For you, this was an unbearable tragedy. The denial of being with someone you love.

For Thoma, this was as simple as nature's course. Of course you would marry a noble! He's simply a commoner, a mere house worker with the favor of his boss. It wouldn't make sense for you to marry him.

And perhaps that's why it infuriated you; how dare he think so little of himself?

"I just don't understand why you're not mad about this! I'm about to be married and you— you won't say anything about that?" You once yelled, frustration built to its peak at his nonchalance.

"(Name)," Thoma says softly, concerned.

"No, don't you start!" You cut off swiftly, "You'll only talk about how you're a commoner and I'm a noble and I'm sick of that! I'm sick of all of it!"

"I just don't know what you want me to say–"

"Say you love me! Ask me to run away!" The words are desperate on your tongue. "Archons, Thoma, I wish you could be more selfish. I'd give it all up for you." You sob, collapsing onto the wooden floor as your legs give out. He immediately kneels in front of you, ready to embrace.

In quiet whispers, he cups your face, brushing tears away with his thumb, "You know I can't ask that of you."

You sniffle, "I know, I know." and "I just wanted you to try."

Um delete if you’re uncomfortable but

modern au 6reeze (separately) seeing Afab reader in a swim suit the first time and not being able to control them selves?

A/n: I feel comfortable writing this.

Aether was waiting for you but when he was about to call you he heard your voice. So when he turned to you his cheeks turned red as you were running up to him. You were like in a movie the sun shining on your skin making it look like you were glowing, and the way your swimsuit hugged your body perfectly. You went next to him as Aether was going crazy in his head. "Did you put on sunscreen love? Your face is becoming red" "Oh nono just you um-you ready to go out on the beach" "Yeah I am now come on the sand seems hot". You said taking your lovers hand into yours as you both ran across the sand with burning feet.

Xiao was making sure that you both were ready to go to the beach. He checked the bag making sure you both have towels some snacks like that. When he was done he heard your guys shared bed room he turned around to see you in the new swimsuit you had just bought he stood there look taking in your look. Seeing how your swimsuit was showing off so much skin than Xiao can handel was making him go nuts."So Xiao are you gonna need help carrying those bags" "Yeah but um do you need you jacket" "What no it's hot out here" "Alright but lets just hurry and get to our spots".

Venti was just running a little late all because he wanted to grab some drinks. He entered your apartments walking towards the pool area. He opened the gate as he was looking around for you. You had heard the gate being open and closed so you started to step out the pool. When steeping out the pool Venti notice you and notice you swimsuit making you look like a goddess stepping out of water to greet him. He can only just stare ad you went up to him placing a kiss on his red cheek.

Kazuha and you just walked into the pool area as you told Kazuha you were gonna change before stepping into the pool. Kazuha told you to be careful as he went to go find a spot for the both of you. After setting everything up he felt a tap on his shoulder he turned around seeing you in your swimsuit. And he loved it the cute swimsuit you always wear. He loves the way it just makes you pop the way it matches you. So he smiled at you, "You ready to get in the pool" "Yes, yes I am".

Heizou and were out shopping because you wanted to get some clothes for spring break as you both wanted to have a vacation so you were now trying on different outfits. Heizou sat there as he was gonna be a judge on what you should and shouldn't get. He honestly loves doing it as he get to see you in all sorts of beautiful outfits. He heard the door open and looked to see you walking out in a swimsuit he stopped and stared at your figure as the way it was designed matched your skin color perfectly. Than he remember you guys were in a shop and others could see you. "So what do you think?" "Huh-Oh- Its beautiful the colors match you wonderfully" "You think well let me take this off to go pay and we can leave" "Okay".

Scaramouche aka the Wanderer was waiting for as you had wanted to take him to the near by water park. He had just got done getting ready and here he was waiting for you. He was just about to start calling you till he saw you walking up to him. In that moment he was reminded on how really beautiful you are inside and out. He loved how you stand above the rest as time stopped as you walked over to him,"Okay you ready to have some fun" "Yeah now hurry up you took to long".

Maid Day ...at the Dawn Winery

Genshin Impact - Diluc x Tartaglia

A/N: Just a silly idea I came up with to feed my needs, don't mind me

Summary: The Dawn Winery comes up with a special event to celebrate the Maid Day

Word count: 1037 words

“Thanks for coming,” Childe said to the last couple of clients leaving the tavern, with a bright smile and a cheerful voice. When the door closed, however, it took him a mere second to drop the act, letting out a tired groan.

“Congratulations, you did it,” Diluc muttered, praising the ginger under a chuckle as he dried off another glass. 

“Why don't I feel like you mean it?” Childe snapped, turning around to face the winery owner and allowing him to take another look at his outfit. A black maid uniform, with the skirt stopping barely over his knees. His chest seemed a little stuffed inside those clothes, but managed to fit in somehow. Completing his outfit, a fancy pair of shoes and black stockings, going all the way up to his thighs.

“I do, thought,” the redheaded continued, watching the other man with the corner of his eyes as a slight smile took place on his lips. “You did a good job in the end.”

“Of course I did!” The harbinger said proudly, taking a seat in the balcony next to Diluc. “And it would’ve been even better if it weren’t for those… ugh, accidents.”

“You mean ‘If you weren’t so ticklish?” Diluc teased, noticing how his comment managed to bring some redness to the man’s face. 

The Dawn Winery was hosting some kind of charity event, offering a special service during the day and donating part of its profit. Among the special staff, there was Tartaglia, in his maid uniform. The harbinger wasn’t sure how he let himself get into that situation, but Diluc could be pretty convincing at times and, well, how could say no? It was for a good cause, after all…

Among the clients, Zhongli, Kaeya, Venti, Albedo and even the traveler decided to visit the winery and make their contributions to the event (two of them were simply making their regular visit, but let’s not focus on that). Once they got there, they couldn’t help but be surprised, but pleased, when the one serving their drinks was none other than Childe himself in such a special attire.

Having shared some intimacy with those men before, however, turned out to be Childe’s doom. As if shameless compliments and comments weren’t enough teasing for the harbinger, their clients - specially Kaeya and Venti - kept constantly messing him up with sudden pokes whenever he came into their reach, gently tracing the back of his legs whenever he was picking up the glasses at their table or even squeezing his sides just for the sake of their amusement.

If any other of his clients decided to treat his staff like that, Diluc would have already kicked them out for such disrespect. Truth to be told, he honestly considered kicking Venti and Kaeya out, but ended up allowing them to have fun with his recently hired maid as Childe seemed way too comfortable with their teasing, almost as if liking such attention.

Back to the present, now just with the two of them left, the fatui was being confronted by the owner, who quietly watched him constantly squeal and yelp under the ticklish teasing through his shift.

“Huh? Me? Come on, I know you are just jealous because you weren’t the one placing your hands on me ~” 

“Oh, please,” Diluc said, shaking his head, “you are not going to try to deny it, are you? Besides…” 

Placing the cloth and the glass in his hands down, Diluc walked around the balcony. Childe followed him with his eyes and, for some reason, he felt his heart starting to beat faster with every step Diluc took. Before he could think of his way out, the ginger was cornered, leaning into the balcony as the redhead towered over him.

“If anyone here is jealous, it’s you because I wasn’t the one giving you attention,” Diluc muttered, grinning down at his partner.

The rookie maid swallowed dry, biting his inner lip. “Y-you are scaring me, master Diluc…” Childe said, half jokingly, half nervously. His eyes kept switching between the redhead’s face and his hands.

Letting his words fall dead on silence, DIluc placed his leg between Childe’s, slightly lifting his skirt and revealing some more of his thighs. And without giving him a chance to protest, Diluc began to dig into his sides, pushing him to the point where he was almost laying down on the balcony.

“H-hehehey! T-that cheahating!!” Childe giggled, lowering both his arms as he tried to pry the redhead’s hands out of his body. With his legs intertwined with Diluc’s, he couldn’t squirm much or he would bring both of them to the ground.

“Is it, now? You seemed to like it when the clients messed up with you,” Diluc continued to tease the ginger, his words coming out a little muffled as his recently hired maid tried to push his face away. 

“S-shuhuhut up! StahAHahap it! ~” 

Using that opening, Diluc’s fingers trailed up higher, now tickling Childe’s ribs while focusing on his side with his other hand. The fatui’s laughter rose up a pitch, trying to bring his legs up and curl up to protect himself, but being easily held down by the winery owner. “What? You don’t like it now?”

Childe wished he could simply crawl out of his skin. His mouth cracked up in a smile as his teeth sank down into his lip, trying his best to stiff his laughter as Diluc tickled his torso with ease. 

“Cohohome on..!” Childe whined, managing to form a clear speech again once Diluc slowed down, just fluttering his fingers over his waist.

“Sure… just because you did a good job today,” Diluc muttered, grinning as he finally lifted his hands. “You can change clothes in the room upstairs.”

“A-ah…” Childe gasped, slowly pushing himself up until he was standing on his own feet again, patting his skirt to fix it. “Hm, change myself?”

“Yes, you can take out the unifo-” and before he could finish, Childe took a step forward, now it was him cornering Diluc against a table.

“What do you mean, master Diluc? I’m not quite done with my work at the winery,” the harbinger smiled, winking at the owner.

“H-huh? Wait, Childe, noHOHOH!!”

Tickletober day 1 - anticipation

hi omg. i absolutely hate this but i wanna try and to tickletober this year since ive never done it before and it feels weird if i dont do the 1st one so ☹️☹️ and just know its 2am and im tired but i wanted to get this done so if its shit literally jusy dont read it

pairing; lee!reader x ler!venti

Venti huffed, letting his hands rest on his hips. He had been looking for his hat everywhere, but to no avail. And he swore he left it riigghhtt on his lamp before he went to bed last night! How strage..

“Windblume!” He called out from his doorway, before beginning to make his way to your room in the teapot you two shared. “Have you seen my–”

He couldn't help but smile when he saw the same hat he turned his room upside down for, sitting lopsided on your head. He moved to stand in front of your sitting figure, then spoke; “My hat, love?”

“Huh?– oh! Yeah, I borrowed it.” You replied, looking up at your beloved with a casual expression. You didn't think he would really mind when you did take it.. but in your defence, he was asleep! And you were going to return it.. eventually.

“..Oh come on, here.” You rolled your eyes lovingly when you saw the stern look on his face, crossing his arms over his chest and looking down on you. “Better?” You asked after had taken the hat off of your own head and placed it onto his, just the way he liked it.

“Almost,” He said with an innocent looking smirk, (well.. innocent enough.) taking the book you were previously reading and placing it to the side. “Just one more thing you can do. Yknow, to make it up to me!”

“And that is..?” You asked, your attention fully on the bard in front of you now. “Stay still, is all. Surely you can manage that, my beloved~” He said in a dragged out tone, moving to push you down onto your bed, a singular hand of his holding both of yours above your head.

“..Venti? What are yo– no.”

“And that's what I would've said if you had asked to try my hat on!” He huffed, lowering his free hand to the side of your torso.

You jerked your body away, a soft squeak leaving your lips. “hah– I didn't think yohou’d mind! I swear!” In all honesty, you knew if you had asked he would've said yes anyways.. What a dramatic little bard you had.

“Oh, now you're laughing at me are you?” The bard in question spoke in a ‘stern’ tone, “Now I really have to get you~” His signature giggle filled the air, looking up at your flushed face to make sure your eyes weren't on him, but his fingers instead.

He let his fingertips rise near your ribs, resulting in another jerk away and a gasp on your side. “Come on, this is ridiculous. I didnt even do ahanyth– can you stop doing that already?!”

You huffed the words out when his nails wiggled towards your stomach, slowly dropping down until they were inches away from the skin. Only then would he pull back, returning to his previous position above. “What? Does it tickle, windblume~?” He questioned with a genuine tone, but that shit-eating smirk on his face told you he knew what he was doing.

“No, I'm just laughing because I feel like it. Yes, it fucking- ohokay ohokay! I'm sorry! God, somebody's sensitive..” You began to return the sarcasm, before he simply tilted his head and moved his hand to rest on your inner bicep. “Uhuh, that's what I thought, my love. Now.. where was I?”

You slightly regret the words you spoke that made him switch to a different spot, because this was arguably worse. He was repeating the same spidering motion, directly above your underarms. Your senses set off, causing you to lean back into the bed and attempt to tug your arms down to cover the sensitive area.

“Bad spot?” He asked, “By how much your giggling, I think it iiiss~”

You simply whined in response, rolling your eyes away from his hand and turning your head to the side to try and get rid of the tingling sensation. Though, it didn't help much. His hand being blocked from your view did not block out the slight graze every few seconds, maybe even made the feeling worse. “You're the worst.”

“Yknow what else is the worst?” He said in a sigh, tilting his head away from you in a fake thinking look. As he did, his hand suddenly squeezed onto your sides, causing electricity to shoot into your nerves. “Waking up and looking for your hat, only to find out a special somebody took it after spending 10 minutes trying to find it!”

“Ohohonly 10 mihinutes? Yohour just inpatient!” You giggled out, his movements causing your body to reflectivity twist away from him. “Yeah, and I'm not the one pinned down right now. Maybe you should learn to watch your tone, my love~”

“Maybe yohou shou- fuhuhuck, ohokay! Ihi give, juhust stohop!” You couldn't help but give up when he began to scribble his fingers along your stomach, causing him to laugh at your quick efforts to escape the feeling.

“Mm.. fine, fine~ Just one last thing though..” He let his grip off of your wrists, pressing a soft kiss to your cheek as he did. “If you’ll allow me, of course.”

You slowly quickly moved your arms to the sides before he got anymore ideas, letting out soft breathy giggles and turning to look at him again. "Hah.. your already here, aren't you? ..Fine, make it quick."

He didnt respond in words, but rather by hiking your shirt up to your upper waist and sliding his hands down to your hips. While pressing his thumbs gently into the skin as small circle, he leant down to press a soft kiss to the middle of your stomach.

“Ah.. yohour so sappy, Venti.” You responded with a soft gasp and giggle, not being able to help the small shuffles your body involuntarily did after. “I know I am.. But you looovee it~”

He spoke his words into the skin of your torso, only making it all the more worse for you. He let out a soft giggle, before looking up at you. “Okay, okay.. Actual last thing. You ready, windblume~?”

You couldn't suppress the giddly smile that formed on your lips, nodding before letting your head fall back onto the blanket. “Yeheah..”

You listened to him take in a deep breath, before pushing his lips into your stomach and blowing a raspberry directly in the middle.

"AHahah- aharcons, yohour hohorrible!" You whined out, shoving his hands off of your hips and turning onto your side.

"Mm, the archons have heard your complaints love.." He said in a played on uninterested tone, pressing a kiss to your forehead. "Now, I trust you'll be getting ready? After all, were going out to Mondstadt.."

"..Ugh, yeah.." You groaned, moving to return the kiss on his cheek. "I will.."

[ddarker-dreams]

What do you consider the most important thing(s) to keep in mind when writing headcanons, scenarios, and/or fan-stories that portray(s) (a) character(s) is/are not yandere(s) as yandere(s)?

speaking from personal experience, there are two main questions i ask myself when i'm going to write a yandere version of a character:

what ideals do they adhere to the most?

what circumstances would it take for them to bend said ideals?

for the first question, i consider their moral compass within the context of the story. are they absolutely law-abiding, and if so, to which laws? do they follow their own ideals? everybody believes in something. even believing in nothing is a belief in itself. figuring this out helps establish some rough limits about what the yan would and wouldn't do. venti isn't going to go around slaughtering everyone in mondstadt that looks at his darling because he loves mondstadt dearly. scaramouche might scara wouldn't either, but for a different reason. it'd pose as an inconvenience that isn't worth the hassle. the reasoning for why they do/don't engage in certain behaviors has to connect back to their identity.

the second question mostly lends itself to characters who it's difficult to picture a darker version of. the members of the phantom troupe from hxh, harbingers from genshin, stellaron hunters from honkai; these fellas don't require nearly as much mental gymnastics. for the less morally ambiguous fellas, i look at their background and how that might influence how they go about their relationships. diluc losing his father (and in a way, his adopted brother), albedo being left behind by his creator, bucciarati watching his mother walk out on him and his father at a young age... huh. this all boils down to mommy issues, doesn't it? hm. well. those are the most dangerous kind.

finally, for the less morally ambiguous fellas, you take all this and ask yourself: how would they justify their behavior to themselves when they know what they're doing is wrong? the human brain's crowning jewel is its ability to absolve the person its cranium it lives in from guilt. characters can operate under the same logic. this list is non-exhaustive, but these mental gymnastics typically fall under these categories:

yandere perceives a threat to their darling's safety/well-being (the yan actually believes this)

yandere perceives a threat to their darling's safety/well-being (the yan kinda knows they're bsing but they gotta stick to this narrative or the guilt will eat them alive)

an unexpected threat to their relationship with their darling pops up, such as darling moving far away, seeing someone romantically, etc... (this causes their behavior to escalate where it normally could remain under their control, they make the tough call that having you be miserable is better than not having you at all)

ultimately, however, how you want to write is what matters most. this is just my way of going about things. it's not a be-all and end-all ruleset. fanfic is a hobby — do whatever you enjoy the most!

#venti and scara are the most diametrically opposed yans i could think of JHTKEMG #writing advice #answered #Anonymous

Ephemeral Emancipation

This takes place one year after the events of Wind God. I had planned to write about what happens a month later and then six months later, but I'm currently out of ideas for those parts.

I'm not sure if sharing this was a good idea, considering that there are two more parts that come before it that I haven't written yet. This might confuse the readers. However, I really enjoyed writing it since I have an inclination towards violent scenes, and since I won't be writing anything very soon, I decided to post it anyway.

Warnings: decapitation, slashes being inflicted on a person

Word count: 5.246

''I would like to leave this place.''

Venti almost choked on the apple he was munching on. "Huh?"

You shifted from one foot to another as you nervously fiddled with the bottom hem of your shorts and repeated yourself, "I want to go out."

He set the half-eaten apple down on the table and leaned back in his chair, studying your face. The wind stirred his dark locks as he pondered your words. "You know I can't let you leave, right?"

You sighed, knowing this conversation won’t be an easy one. "I know, but I just... I miss the outside world so much. The endless blue skies, the warmth of the sun on my skin, the sound of birds chirping, and the fresh air."

Venti raised an eyebrow and asked, "How is the air outside any different from the air in here?"

You took a deep breath, trying to find the right words to express how you felt. "It's not just about the air; it's about freedom, you know, the thing that you're supposed to represent." You crossed your arms over your chest. "It's about living, rather than just existing."

He brought his fingers up to his chin, contemplating your words. ''I tried my best to make you feel happy in here,'' he said. ''Wasn't that enough?''

As you thought back on the various moments you two had spent together, memories flooded your mind, including the times you had danced under the stars or sat on the swing while he tried to teach you how to play the lyre.

"You don't get it," you said, stepping forward and looking into his eyes. "Maybe this may be enough for you since you don't have the same perception of time as I do—being immortal and all that—but for me, it feels like I'm stuck in a never-ending loop."

You knew that discussing this topic with Venti required a different approach if you wanted to get through to him.

Your thoughts returned to the countless hours you'd spent poring over the books in Lisa's library; pages of Old Mondstadt unfurled like scrolls in front of your eyes, as if presenting you with a plan.

''You know, I've been curious about your past,'' you began, trying to pique Venti's interest. ''I've read stories about Old Mondstadt, but I always wondered what the experience of the people that lived there was like.''

That was true. Being from Mondstadt, you were curious about your city's history and how it evolved over time, but you never knew that the way you would get to briefly experience it was thanks to the situation you found yourself in about a year ago.

Venti's eyes narrowed slightly, the wind rustling his viridian attire. "How come you're suddenly interested in that? You could have asked me about my past a long time ago."

''But a long time ago you wouldn't have let me out!''

''What makes you think I would now?''

You crossed your arms behind your back and looked to the side. "Because I behaved well and followed your rules. I've proven that I can be trusted, didn't I?" you looked back at him. "I thought maybe you could walk me around while you explain its history to me. It would be a nice chance for me to learn more about you and experience the real world once again at the same time."

He sat up straight in his chair, considering your request. "Well, I suppose that could be arranged," he responded. "But only if you promise not to do anything stupid like last time. I'll be keeping a close eye on you."

You nodded eagerly.

He approached you and grabbed you by the waist, pulling you closer to him as a golden mist enveloped you both. You now found yourself standing on a cobblestone path surrounded by stone arches. You inhaled deeply, taking in the crisp, fresh air.

''Is the air different?'' he laughed.

''It's fresher,'' you said simply.

''Oh, come on.''

You looked around. "Well then, tell me something about this place. Since you've been here during its downfall centuries ago, I expect a tour in great detail."

He crossed his arms and looked down at the cobblestones beneath his feet, then at you. "This area was ruled by Decarabian, the God of Storms, who thought he protected the city and its people from the harsh winds that would sweep through," he began. "Back then, the entire Mondstadt region was known for being covered in snow and ice, which made it a difficult place to live in. Decarabian used his powers to form a wind barrier around Old Mondstadt, shielding it from the elements and creating what he thought was a haven for its inhabitants.'' He paused for a moment. ''However, as time passed, people began to realize that they were living in a false sense of security. The wind barrier became a prison, trapping them within its walls and preventing any contact with anything that was on the other side of it," he continued as you both walked along the path.

You hopped onto a fallen pillar, trying to balance yourself. "Reminds me of a certain someone."

Venti chuckled and looked up at you. "Unlike Decarabian, I don't create barriers to, quote on quote, protect people."

"But you decided to kidnap a person and strip them of freedom," you interjected, raising an eyebrow at him.

He sighed, "Do you want to listen to what I have to say or should we go back?"

"Fine, fine," you said, hopping off the pillar and gesturing for him to continue.

-

As you continued walking through the ancient streets of Old Mondstadt, Venti pointed out various landmarks and shared stories of the city's past. He also mentioned the grand tower that is still standing at the heart of the city, where Decarabian would reside.

You listened intently as he spoke, genuinely captivated by the tales of old.

He explained that after centuries of ruling, Decarabian’s people began to question his authority and the validity of his so-called protection. They desired freedom and the ability to explore beyond the confines of the city. Their discontent eventually grew into a rebellion led by a group of individuals who sought to end his reign and free the city from his control—Venti among them.

''Everyone fought against his oppressive rule, even his partner. The rebellion was successful, and Decarabian was overthrown, giving the people of Old Mondstadt the freedom they had longed for,'' he spoke.

"He had a partner?" You raised your eyebrows in surprise. "Did he kidnap her too?"

''...No, and yes, Decarabian had a partner—a mortal who had been by his side through his reign—and who then saw the injustice he had inflicted upon their people. She couldn't bear to stand by his side any longer, and so she joined the rebellion.''

You drew circles on the dirt with your foot, pondering Venti's words, "And how did you become the Anemo Archon?"

''The individuals who led the rebellion were his partner, Amos, a young boy, and me." Venti's gaze turned sorrowful. ''They both perished, leaving me and Andrius—who also fought against Decarabian and who is now one of the Four Winds—as candidates for the position of the new Anemo Archon,'' he paused. ''Andrius was chosen, but he declined the offer, feeling that he was not suited for such a role. He believed that he was unworthy of this position due to his perceived lack of love for humanity that an Archon ought to have, and so the responsibility fell upon me. I accepted the role, not because I believed myself to be the most qualified,'' he said, lifting up a finger. ''But because I believed in freedom and the goodness of humanity, and once I became the Anemo Archon, I vowed to never repeat Decarabian's mistakes and to protect my people. I reshaped the terrain and changed Mondstadt's climate to its current state and then moved everyone to what is now the current City of Freedom,'' he concluded.

You exhaled heavily as the weight of Venti's words settled in your chest. ''What a journey that must have been.''

"What a journey indeed," he replied, a hint of weariness in his eyes. "I'm glad you didn't get to experience such an event."

Both of you came to a halt, taking in the view of the abandoned city.

''You said you took the form of a human, what did you look like before?''

''Ah, before I took the form of a human, I was just a tiny being who lived in the wind. I had no physical form but rather existed as a manifestation of the wind itself,'' he explained with a smile.

"So now you're, what, human-shaped air?" you asked, trying to wrap your head around the concept.

Venti laughed at your question. "That's an interesting way of describing it! I suppose you could say that.''

You simply nodded and resumed your walking.

You spotted a small opening in the rockface—a split in the wall just wide enough to squeeze through it—from which you could see the light shining out. A flicker of doubt crossed your mind, but you needed to take the chance, so you grabbed his hand and started walking towards it, leaving him no time for reaction.

"I don't think we should go there," he voiced, but you kept dragging him.

"It's alright; I promised I wouldn't do anything stupid, didn't I?"

"Is this your idea of not stupid?"

‘’Just for a while, there’s nothing wrong with that. Besides, you're still keeping an eye on me.’’

As you made your way through the narrow opening, the sharp edges scraped against your skin, causing slight discomfort. Venti followed closely behind, his grip on your hand tight.

Finally, you emerged from the darkness and onto a long and wide road amidst tall boulders. The sky overhead was clear blue with puffy white clouds, and the sound of wind around you was but a low hum. The birds soared over the trees and chirped out a song, unlike the melancholic silence of the abandoned city you had just left behind.

You let go of his hand and walked ahead, taking in the beauty of the surroundings. The vibrant swaying grass danced in harmony with the gentle breeze, and although it was pretty similar to what you had in the Serenitea Pot, it somehow felt different.

"Hold on, you're walking too fast!" Venti called out and hurried to catch up to you.

You didn't listen to him; instead, you kept powering forward until you were met with a small beach overlooking a lake that shimmered under the golden rays of the sun. The water stretched out before you like a sparkling mirror, reflecting the hues of the sky and creating a captivating scene.

A gust of wind gently pushed you back onto Venti's chest, causing you to stumble slightly. He grabbed your chin and lifted it up to make you look at him. "I told you not to run off like that."

"Couldn't help it," you shrugged. "What did you expect? I haven't been here in so long."

His hand squeezed your cheeks. "I get it, but please try to stay by my side."

You huffed in annoyance, letting out a loud and long sigh. "Right, I'm supposed to behave, I totally forgot about that."

"Y/N, I'm serious." He was afraid that the two of you would run into someone familiar and that you would take that as an opportunity to run away, so he tried to be cautious.

You wiggled free from his grasp and made your way towards the lake, taking a few steps closer to the water's edge. "You know I most likely won't get to experience being here again, right? You've been very adamant about keeping me confined in that realm, let me at least enjoy this."

He joined you by the shore. "I didn't say you couldn't enjoy this. I just wanted to make sure you were safe."

You snorted, "Safe from who? I don't see anybody else around here other than you."

Looking around, you noticed a wooden boat tethered to a nearby rock and ran up to it, excitedly tugging on the rope to set it free. Venti trailed close behind, a worried expression on his face. "What are you doing?"

You threw the rope to the side and turned to face him. "I want to go on a boat ride, we don't have that luxury in the realm. We won't go far, just a short trip around the lake. Does that sound good, or are you going to baby me again?"

You both then pushed the boat into the water. He reached out to take your hand in his, helping you lift one leg over the side of the boat and then the other. As you settled into the boat, you saw Venti take his place beside you, a small smile playing on his lips.

The boat gently rocked as it sailed across the still surface of the lake, and the sound of the water lapping against the hull gave you a sense of peace that you hadn't felt in a long time.

You felt a sense of liberation wash over you as the boat moved further away from the shore. The wind tossed through your hair, and the warm sun kissed your skin. You closed your eyes and let out a contented sigh, savoring every moment of this brief taste of freedom.

You leaned over the side of the boat and ran your fingers through the cold water. The fish swam lazily beneath the surface, their scales glistening in the sunlight and creating a vibrant display of colors.

Venti watched you with admiration in his eyes. He understood the significance of this moment for you, and despite his reservations, he was captivated by your joy and the way it lit up your face.

The boat continued to drift along the lake, taking you deeper into its embrace. The surrounding landscape was a picturesque panorama of meadows adorned with wildflowers and half-cut mountains in the distance.

Taking a glance at Venti, you saw him look in another direction with a mix of emotions on his face, one of which was predominantly sadness. He wished he could give you more of these moments where you could truly be free, but he also didn't want to risk losing you.

You dipped your hand into the water again and splashed a handful of droplets onto Venti's face, breaking him out of his pensive state.

"Oh, so that's how it's going to be, huh?" he teased, wiping the water off his face with his sleeve.

"Well, I couldn't resist," you replied, splashing some more water in his direction.

"If you're going to play dirty, then I guess I'll have to retaliate," he said, reaching over to splash water back at you.

The boat rocked with your antics, as you two engaged in a water fight, and the tension and sadness that had been lingering in the air vanished, replaced by pure joy and laughter.

You both eventually calmed down, catching your breath and letting the laughter subside. The boat continued its journey across the lake until it arrived on the other side of the shore. You two stepped off drenched but with smiles on your faces.

As you walked on the sand, you talked about everything and nothing at the same time. The conversation flowed effortlessly, as if the water had washed away all the barriers that had been holding you back. While you were talking, you saw a Sunsettia tree a few steps away, its vivid orange fruits hanging from the branches like jewelry. You walked towards it, plucked two of them, and handed one to Venti.

"Here," you said, offering him the Sunsettia fruit.

He took it with a grateful smile. "Thank you. This has been fun, I'm glad I agreed to bring you here."

You smiled back at him. Perhaps thanks to this little adventure, he will let you out more often.

You leaned back against the tree trunk. The soothing rustle of the leaves above provided a calming soundtrack to your conversation.

As the sun began its descent, casting a warm golden glow across the landscape, you felt a gloved hand cover your mouth and push you onto the ground. Looking up, you saw a person wearing a coat and whose face was covered by a mask. You struggled against their grip, but their strength overpowered yours. Panic welled up inside you, and you desperately searched for Venti, only to see that he was apprehended by another masked figure.

The clapping of hands and a voice that sounded like a snake, hissing and ready to strike at any moment, resonated across the air from behind him. ''Well, well, well, what do we have here? A little romantic date interrupted by some unwanted guests?''

You both were lifted from the ground and forced to sit on your knees, hands bound behind your backs. The playful atmosphere had vanished, replaced by a tense and dangerous situation.

Your heart thumped in your chest, and your throat tightened with fear as you looked over your shoulder to see four people standing behind you. You exchanged a quick glance at Venti, who silently tried to reassure you that you would find a way out of this together.

As the voice taunted and threatened, you turned to see a blonde woman in a revealing dress, a cloak draped over her shoulders, and some kind of crown perched on her head.

She approached Venti from behind and grabbed him by the hair, forcing his head back. "You thought you could avoid me, bard?" she sneered, her voice dripping with venom. "No more slipping away, you little rat."

Venti let out a laugh. "What more, O highness, dost thou crave from me? Yet more songs, perchance, to set your spirit free?" he joked.

The woman's grip tightened on Venti's hair, her nails digging into his scalp. "Quit it with the rhymes," she hissed, and her eyes were like flames, scorching everything they touched. "I assure you; this is far from a laughing matter. I already took your Gnosis; maybe I can take something more from you." She let go of his hair and turned to face you.

It looked like Venti had encountered this woman before, and she had some deep-seated vendetta against him.

The masked man who was holding you in place pulled out a dagger and pressed it against your throat, causing you to take a sharp intake of breath. The cold metal glinted ominously in the dying light of the sun, casting a shadow across your face.

Venti shifted uneasily in front of you, his eyes locked on the dagger that threatened your life. "What the hell do you think you're doing?"

''Isn't this the mortal you hold so dear? The one you spent countless days serenading with your songs and that you now hold behind lock and key? How selfish of a God of Freedom,'' the woman mocked, ''I must say, I've never seen such devotion from a God before. It's truly touching,'' she gestured towards the person behind you. "But you're no better than your predecessor.''

Venti's body tightened at the sight of the dagger pressing deeper against your skin. He clenched his fists and said, ''I fucking swear, if you do something to her, you will regret it. I spared you many times before, but my patience is wearing thin. I won't hesitate to kill you and your stupid fatui puppets." His voice trembled with a mix of anger and desperation.

The woman laughed coldly, her eyes narrowing with amusement. "Oh, how bold of you to threaten me, Barbatos. But I think you underestimate the lengths I'm willing to go to get what I want."

As he locked eyes with the woman, his demeanor darkened and his speech took on a more serious tone. "Did you forget who you're dealing with, Rosalyne?"

Her eyes widened at the mention of her name, and she slapped him, the sound echoing throughout the tense atmosphere. Venti's head snapped to the side, but he didn't flinch; his defiance only seemed to fuel her anger.

''Is this how you always greet people? By slapping their faces?'' he laughed sarcastically. "You should be more careful with your actions and words, they leave traces.''

She leaned closer to him. "You don't get to mock me, Barbatos. You see, I would like to know what you would do if I were to end your mortal's life right in front of you. Would you still have the audacity to talk to me like that?''

The fatui behind you retracted the blade from your throat only to twist it around his hand and try to stab you, but you never felt it pierce your skin.

At that, a powerful surge of wind swept through the air, and you heard heavy weights fall to the ground. You looked up to your sides just to see a gruesome scene; the heads of the fatui rolling across the ground and leaving a trail of blood in their wake, their lifeless eyes staring back at you. In horror, you quickly closed your eyes and tried to fight the nauseous feeling in your stomach.

Venti stood tall in the midst of the chaos, as the wind whipped around him, carrying the scent of blood.

''I warned you, didn't I? I warned what would happen if you dared to harm her.'' He spoke with a chilling conviction that sent shivers down your spine.

Rosalyne took a few steps back and attempted to channel her elemental powers through her catalyst in a desperate attempt to regain control of the situation. Venti raised his hand, and a whirlwind formed around him before she could utter a single incantation. The wind blew her off her feet, causing her to collide with a nearby wall. As she collided with the hard surface, she let out a strangled cry of pain, and her body crumbled to the ground.

He stood over her, ''I don't think you're familiar with the expression fuck around and find out, are you?''

She attempted to stand, but her body trembled from pain. "I'm from Mondstadt, you wouldn't harm someone from your nation,'' she panted. "Try to kill me, and I'll make sure your precious little—''

Slashes began to appear on her body as if carved by an unseen force, causing her to scream in agony. Venti's wind continued to slice through her with precision, each cut calculated, inflicting pain but avoiding any fatal blows.

As the wind howled around them and the air was thick with tension, carrying the echoes of Rosalyne's screams, his eyes bore into her writhing form. His once playful and carefree demeanor had morphed into something dark and unyielding.

With one last slash, his wind finally ceased, leaving her broken and bloodied on the ground. Her body twitched and convulsed with each ragged breath she took. "Do me a favor and die here, Rosalyne," he said with a frosty tone, his words lacking any warmth or emotion.

As you stared in disbelief, he turned around and began walking towards you. His steps were heavy, each one echoing in the silence until he came to a halt in front of you. His eyes, now devoid of their usual gleam, were hauntingly intense. He knelt down and gently stroked some of your blood-stained hair; it was gentle, contrasting with the brutality he had displayed moments before.

''We're going home,'' he said, and grabbed you by the wrist to pull you up from the ground. The golden mist from before swirled around you both once more, taking you back to the realm.

You now stood at the entryway of the house. Your heart still pounded from the horrifying events that happened during the evening.

Venti looked you up and down. "Take your clothes off and go bathe. There's blood on you,'' he commanded.

You didn't move, your voice shaky as you spoke, "What did you do?"

His eyes met yours. "What did you want me to do?"

''You murdered those people!''

"Would you have rather died?" he yelled. "I protected you!"

''Yes! ...no, I don't know! You're not supposed to protect me by killing other people!'' You managed to say through labored breaths, ''There must have been another way to handle the situation, we could have found a peaceful resolution, or we could have tried to escape...''

As he listened to your words, his gaze hardened, and his jaw clenched tightly. ''Peaceful resolution? With someone like her?''

"I don't know what you did to her to make her hate you so much, but resorting to violence is not an answer!"

''Enough!'' he snapped, ''You will not be leaving again.''

"Venti," his name escaped your lips.

He shivered. This was the first time you pronounced his name since he brought you here. He wanted you to call his name for so long, but not like this.

You lowered your voice, making it gentle and soothing to try and reach him in his hardened state. "Was a single life above those people?"

''Your life is above those people. You don't realize just how important you're to me, Y/N." He tried to come closer to you, but you stepped back.

You didn't want to continue this conversation anymore. It was futile to reason with him.

-

This whole situation was giving you a horrible night. Every time you were close to falling asleep, you'd toss and turn in bed, replaying the events of the evening in your mind. The images of heads rolling on the floor and that woman's horrifying scream as Venti slashed through her kept flashing before your eyes.

You tensed up as you heard the door creak open, your heart racing once more. You watched Venti stumble into your room as he clumsily made his way over to you. He sat on the bed and leaned in close, his lips almost brushing yours and his breath heavy with the scent of dandelion wine.

You backed down, causing him to fall on you and rest his cheek on your collarbone as he sighed heavily. You nudged him to sit up straight, but he groaned and buried his face deeper into your collarbone, both arms tightly wrapped around you, refusing to let go.

"Y/N..." he murmured, his voice muffled against your skin. His shirt was rumpled and unbuttoned, exposing a teal tattoo on his chest. This was the first time you saw his bare skin in such an intimate way and you couldn't help but trace your fingers over the design, admiring the details and the way it seemed to glow under your touch.

While you lay there, fascinated by the intricate tattoo, you felt Venti slowly lift his head from your collarbone and leave a trail of soft kisses down your neck. The feeling of his lips against your skin sent shivers down your spine, and a rush of warmth flooded your cheeks.

"Hey," you said, placing your fisted hand on his chest and lightly pushing him away. "You should go to bed. You're drunk."

Venti looked up at you, his usually vibrant eyes now hazy and clouded with the effects of alcohol. He let out a small chuckle. "I'm in bed."

''Not in yours...''

He hugged you tighter, ''What does it matter?''

You sighed, trying to come up with an excuse, ''It matters because this bed is not big enough for the both of us.'' That was a lie; the bed was large enough for two people, but you felt uneasy about this situation and wanted to create some distance between yourself and Venti.

He resumed giving you neck kisses as one of his hands made its way underneath your shirt, caressing your bare back. ''I love you, haah... I love you a lot,'' he breathed out. ''Give in to me already.''

"Venti, this is getting out of control." You tried to push him away harder, but his other arm wrapped around your waist and held you firmly in place. "You need to get back to your room."

You attempted to wriggle out of his grasp, but his strength was surprisingly strong for someone who seemed to be so intoxicated. The two of you lay there in a tangled mess of limbs.

You took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. You couldn't help but think about the complicated relationship you shared with him. He kidnapped you and forced you to stay by his side, yet he never treated you badly; in fact, he had shown you nothing but kindness and affection.

A soft snore escaped his lips, and you turned your head to see him knocked out. You scanned his features, taking in the relaxed expression on his face and the way his chest rose and fell with each breath.

-

You woke up the next morning to soft rays of sunshine filtering through the curtains. As you stretched and yawned, you realized that you were no longer tangled with Venti. You turned your head and saw him still peacefully asleep beside you; his messy hair was spread across the pillow, and he was now covered in a blanket, hiding the teal tattoo that had captivated you the night before. You carefully removed your side of the blanket and tried to slip out of bed, but as you did, Venti stirred and his eyes fluttered open. He groaned and rubbed them, looking at you with confusion.

"What am I doing here?" he mumbled, his voice rough and low.

"You came home drunk last night and made your way into my bed," you replied, trying to hide the lingering warmth on your cheeks.

As he propped himself up on his elbows, his expression changed from confusion to realization. He took in the familiar surroundings of your bedroom as he looked around. He then glanced down and saw that his shirt was still on, albeit slightly wrinkled and unbuttoned halfway, causing it to fall loosely off his shoulders.

''Nothing happened,'' you quickly added, hoping he wouldn't misinterpret the situation.

He watched you walk up to the dresser, grab a brush, and run it through your hair while you tried not to look at him. He leaned back against the pillow, one arm behind his head as his hand absentmindedly ran through his messy hair.

''Venti,'' you turned to him, ''The state you were in last night was because of—''

''The fatui,'' he interrupted. ''I made you uncomfortable. I made you fear me,'' he said, looking up at the ceiling. ''I don't want you to see me as a monster, Y/N.''

You didn't say anything, instead, you kept brushing your hair.

''I'm sorry. I can't make it up to you with words alone, but," he paused for a second, "I don't want to lose you. I sacrificed so much in my life. I said goodbye to so many people." His voice faded away, losing its strength and volume. "If I had someone to pray to, I would ask them to let me keep at least one person by my side, just one is enough."

He got out of bed and walked over to you, taking your hands in his and looking you in the eyes. He brought them up to his lips and gently kissed your fingers. "You're everything I have."

[sagau-my-beloved]

So I have a lot of brainrots and stuff that I share with my brother but nobody else that I felt like sharing with you. One of them is what if creator!Reader subconsciously ends up sending like... gifts from our world to Teyvat. Like giving them a taste of the things the creator likes or is familiar with and are tailored to the characters who get them, so like Yun Jin, Xinyan, and Venti get access to an interdimensional radio that plays music from Earth, and Albedo gets like science textbooks, and tech that is too advanced for Teyvat and has media would be translated into book form, so cartoons become comics/manga so like Klee gets like a manga version of MLP:FiM and Beidou gets a novel series version of Pirates of the Caribbean... maybe Zhongli gets copies of myths and legends from earth history cause he seems like he'd like that...

Oh my god this is so cool, like, and this is kind of expanding on that in a different form, if reader just happened to look at an everyday object they owned and thought "Huh, you know I bet *insert character here* would find this interesting" then boom, it's transported directly to them (in three to five business days—)

So like the first few times it happens everyone is super confused, I mean, random stuff that they didn't even know existed is suddenly appearing in front of them

As soon as word gets out that your the one doing it, all hell is going to break loose, anything that makes its way from your world to their world is going to be seen as a blessed object, the receiver as someone who has gained your favor

So there's probably going to be ceremonies dedicated to this where everyone tries to get your attention so that you might think of them more (and therefore have a higher probability of you accidentally sending them something that reminds you of them)

Like characters that you would typically only see on character quest or specific storylines are going to be appearing more frequently outside of that, doing anything possible to get you to strike up a conversation so they can keep you there as long as possible

Characters that you already own are going to try their hardest to stay as a part of the main team, a suspicious increase in attack rates, sometimes it looks like the attacks don't even hit them, how suspicious

Suddenly these mostly meaningless things that you wouldn't even glance twice at in your own world become the most important object that person owns, it'll be treasured and displayed and shown off

Since everybody just assumes the more things a person has the more well liked they are, the characters which end up getting a lot from you are going to be both the object of adoration and jealousy, you've successfully placed a target on their backs—

Getting into more specifics, I think it would be so funny if you were reading a modern chemistry or just general science book for your class or job or even just a pass time, and then happened to think of Albedo, because that book would contain knowledge that is so far beyond what they currently know

What they could understand would probably completely blow their minds about the universe and elements and how all of that works

It'll probably be interpreted that you are the one who wrote that btw, you'll be hailed as an absolute genius (as if they didn't already think that), and also incredibly merciful for sharing your wisdom with the rest of them

That's stupid textbook would become the most read and studied book by all of the greatest minds in Teyvat

Of course it is still owned by Albedo, who is incredibly honoured that you would choose to share this with the world through him

And God forbid if you accidentally happened to think of Zhongli while reading a history book—

I could see that turning into a disaster real quick, I mean, everybody is going to learn about the fact that you live in a completely separate world with other people similar to you, and how that world is incredibly cruel and heartless—

It would strengthen their resolve to physically take you away from there

Of course, that does all hinge on the notion that Zhongli would let anybody else even touch that book, which is a little far fetched

I imagine mythology books would be a much safer bet, but there's always a chance that those could be taken as actual history books to so—

I could imagine Venti getting modern instruments, books of poetry perhaps, and I think the funniest would be some kind of iPod, or any other type of music storing device that runs on battery power

Because imagine it, they don't really have anything like that there, so it would take a bit of trial and error to even figure out what it is and how to use it, then he suddenly learns that it's used to play music (which is just so crazy to all of them), music that is completely unlike anything that they have ever heard or known to be possible, even for him with his self proclaimed knowing all music that has and will ever exist

And then the battery dies—

It's not like any of them know how to charge it or even that they have to, so then he assumes that he just broke the gift you gave him—

I want you to imagine what a distraught person looks like, now take that image and multiply it by 10 or so

Venti is going to feel so bad, you went through all this trouble to send him a specialized gift (which was better than anything you have ever sent anyone else in his eyes), and he breaks it

If you were there physically he would apologize for days on end, but since you aren't there physically, he has to simply use that energy apologizing to the statute of you and praying that you'll forgive him

If he gets another gift after that he'll feel better about the whole thing, taking that as a sign of your forgiveness

(Venti would also accidentally be given a lot of wine by me because I just think about him everytime I see bottles anywhere)

Childe would probably be most likely to get various types of weaponry, I'm basing a lot of this soley off of what items cause me to think of these characters btw, but he would really take great pride and whatever you gave him, even if it was like stupid little trinkets (Childe with a tiny bow key chain that he puts on his actual bow let's go—)

I really want Thoma to get a dog stuffed animal, because I think that would be incredibly cute

I think the kids getting things would be absolutely adorable, especially if it was kind of unorthodox things

Like Qiqi now has a large pile of coconuts and coconut shaped toys, because every time you see one you can't help but think of her

Klee would get cute comics and probably a large amount of various toys that are red, she would hoard them all in her room and refused to give them up for anything

It's just such a fun idea, and really personalized too since everyone has different associations for characters and objects, thank you for sharing <3

prompt ✧ their icks

characters ✧ scaramouche, kazuha, venti, kaeya, childe, itto

warnings ✧ gn!reader, this is a joke post, stinky!kazuha, alphamale!kaeya, toxic!childe

a/n ✧ kaeya’s is strictly a joke guys i promise, i know he’d never do that 😭

SCARAMOUCHE

✧ he doesn’t clean up after himself. if his arrogance and huge ego weren’t already a huge ick, this is. he’s lucky to have you (and other lackeys) to clean up after him otherwise his spaces would be a complete disgusting mess. he claims he’s “beneath cleaning.”

“how about you clean it if you’re so worried about it?”

KAZUHA

✧ forgets to wash his clothes + shower. he’s constantly on a boat with dozens of other people, so it’ll just slip his mind. he’ll only remember once he goes to move his hair from his face and realizes how greasy it is. he always smells like salt and sweat even after bathing though.

“huh? i don’t smell anything?”

VENTI

✧ when he’s drunk he’ll talk in a baby voice. absolutely insufferable, i’m aching just typing this. he’ll say shit like “pwease! just won more dwink!” and tug on you like a child. it’s disgusting, you end up leaving him in the tavern right then and there. you’ll talk to him when he’s sane again, and make him apologize.

“nooo don’t go home yet, pwease! i’m sowwy…”

KAEYA

✧ he talks like an alpha male. he has the mindset of “women belong in the kitchen and men are meant to work.” its worse in bed. he’ll actually growl. it’s weird and makes you visibly recoil.

“you’re meant to stay home and clean, now be a good kitten... daddy will be home from work later.”

CHILDE

✧ acts like a “nice guy.” is super creepy actually, and kind of toxic. he’ll compare you to other girls, especially about stuff your self conscious about. oh but ‘don’t worry, he was only kidding! god, you take stuff so seriously!’ (stfu)

“woah, relax babe! i was only joking.”

ITTO

✧ refers to himself in 3rd person. this is actually canon because i’ve heard him do it. he’ll say stuff like, “itto wants a kiss! give itto kiss!” …. absolutely not. my stomach lurched while i wrote that.

“cmere baby, itto wants to cuddle!”

(No original idea, (like the idea of the characters having control over your phone)

What if the people (playable characters) had acces to our phone?

U got games on ya phone? Those are not yours anymore the kids and itto have claimed them as theirs

-klee is probably playing angry birds or sum-

.

Oh wait HOLD TF UP YOU DONT WANNA GET OUT OF BED?? ye paimon is turning on the alarm sound (wich not suprisingly is her voice. But you had different lines no? Did someone change it?)

"GET UP YOU...

Ehm traveler do you think i can call them a nickname?

-aether shakes his head-

"JUST GET UP ALREADYYYYY"

A presentation is suddenly done without you doing it? How strange. Must be ganyu? Ye

"oh their grace has an economy presentation? Well maybe it would take some stress off their back, im sure they still have plenty of other work to do"

.

Most of the smart people (albedo tighnari etc) use it for their research. I mean they can learn so many things (if you spoke another language i think a lot of them would try to learn it)

"oh so these are flowers from their world? Hm interesting i wonder what these plants can do, maybe when their grace is here i could ask them"

.

Suddenly new playlists have been popping up. Wondering who did it? Well the culprits are probably venti and xinyan taking the oppertunity to listen to your worlds music.

Suddenly venti is playing soldier poet king on his lyre

.

Also random pictures? Of the MOST random things in tevyat.

"Oh wait why tf do i have a picture of an anemo slime? Wait i did not take this? Eh whatever i probably just forgot"

.

Ah what is this, the things you liked on Tumblr? Yae Miko now is in charge of that (Poor you) +bonus if you write yourself)

Oh? So this is what their grace likes to read huh?

Would probably also make light novels inspired by the things you read

Would keep the things you read a secret tho for teasing inspiration ofcourse

.

When you finaly fall asleep (lets say the phone lays next to you) some will just go up to the screen and say goodnight (like their in the screen)

(favorite character) goodnight your grace..

.

Or when someone in your class is making fun of you and you speak up THEY WILL FCKING CHEER FOR YOU (ofcourse you dont hear this bc of the class being loud asf (i have childe in mind haha)

-all the yelling between you and this person-

YESSSS GET THEM YOUR GRACE

Oh you should see the pride on his face

.

On the other hand when they hear you cry they will fcking panic. I mean they really wanna help you but they cant because of the barrier in between

"WHY CANT WE CHEER UP THEIR GRACE?! THEY SHOULDNT WASTE THEIR TEARS"

"as far as we understand your concerns but we will have to wait until the time is right"

Ye there is utter chaos between the people

.

When you have to make school work online its randomly made for you? Huh i guess dottore wanted to see what you always have to do

"oh wait i think i still had some chemistry homework"

-sees the work all done-

"Wtf, i didn't make it before? Eh maybe someone else made mine on accident. Well too bad for them"

.

Also lets not talk about the random number that randomly texts you haha (PLEASE YOU DONT GET IT WHY DO THEY KEEP SAYING "your grace")

.

They have all sort of agreed to not tell you that they have access to this... Weird Artifact, until your finaly in tevyat.

.

.

Please dont be mad at them once they do, they put in so much effort.

.

I dont understand yall anymore so here, have this. The things i expect to do wel do absolutely not and just random drabbles get so much likes, like what?

Anyways have a nice day/night :D

Dates With Your Partner

Characters Include: Venti, Diluc, Candace, Nilou Genre: Romantic Fluff A/N: Please forgive me if any of these chapters seem unnatural to read, I hope to get better at writing Genshin characters! Notes: GN! Reader, You/Yours are the pronouns used, reader is addressed to as MC (Because I’m used to it) Introduction: Whether it be unwinding after a long hard day at work, taking your partner out somewhere, or just being with them; it's nice to have a date once and a while. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Venti

It's not hard to find Venti around Mondstadt, at least for you but maybe that’s just the perk of dating him. It's pleasantly easy to set up dates, such as the one you two have set up at Windrise underneath its giant oak tree. You bought a picnic basket of foods, which Venti did help prepare, and a picnic blanket to lay on. Venti brought some wine, which you knew he was probably going to drink all of.

“Hm.. I feel like something is missing..” Venti hums, stroking his chin.

“Huh? What would that be?”

Venti thinks for another moment or two before smiling and summoning his lyre to play.

“A date such as this wouldn’t be complete without a ballad~”

Ah.. Classic Venti. He always ends up singing a ballad for you one way or another, but you don’t mind. His music is relaxing and really helps the mood of dates such as these.

Diluc

Dates with Diluc usually take a bit of preparing, so it was a pleasant surprise when at 3 pm you got a letter from his bird companion, inviting you to the manor at 4 pm for a date. You couldn’t pass up the opportunity so you send a response back with the bird and go to get ready.

You knock on the door at the manor and Adelinde, who greets you with a warm smile.

“Good afternoon. Please, come in.”

You thank the head maid and enter. You are greeted with Diluc, who isn’t in his work clothes, but instead something more fancier.

“You look nice.” He says with a collected tone, but still one filled with admiration.

You couldn’t help but smile at this usually stoic boyfriend as he holds out his arm for you to grab onto so he can lead you to the table.

Candace

Dates with Candace can be either carefully planned out or spontaneous.

Usually the dates you go on help her to visit the city more, or sometimes you just stay in the desert somewhere suitable for a date, as much as it could be at least. It’s a coinflip really.

On this day, you two decided to take a walk during the time of day where it’s usually less busy for Candace. It’s a simple way to spend time with each other.

You two stop at Caravan Ribat, which wasn’t particularly busy. Candace’s eyes caught a particularly well woven tapestry at one of the stalls. You follow her line of sight and gape a little bit at the textile.

“Wait here!” You tell her, and you were off before she could stop you.

A minute later, you come back to Candace with the tapestry rolled up. You give it to her with a smile, and she couldn’t help but give a gentle smile while taking it.

“You didn’t have to, MC”

“I wanted to!”

“Well, thank you. Why don’t we go back to the village? I can cook us something!”

“Okay!!”

Nilou

You often come to show Nilou support whenever she dances. After her dance routine, you always cheer and clap the loudest. It makes Nilou happy whenever you do so, even if she has to remind you to quiet down on occasion so as to not disturb the other people. After a particularly tiring dance routine, she comes off of the stage and sees you with two cups of padisarah pudding for the two of you. "You did an amazing job with that dance!" You compliment, giving Nilou her cup of pudding, which she happily takes. "Thanks MC!" You two sat at a bench and simply enjoyed the pudding together, laughing and talking as the Grand Bazaar stays lively as ever.

A/n: So i wanna take a quick break from my series and do a random smut. Sorry if its weird.

Fandom: Genshin Impact

Character(s): Heizou

Warning(s): smut, nsfw, sub characters, porn tape,

Readers Gender: Gn

====

====

You and Heizou have been together for over a year. he meet you because of your mutual friends so with a little push you two got together. As of now everything seems great you two are now about to move in together and when you went out to get a few things from the store, so he thought to clean out a place in your closet for himself. But when he cleaning it out he found a few interesting things.

Secret love letters that were from your friends (Xiao, venti, Aether, Kazuha) years before you two got together. And with thr letters were series of pictures and tapes which Heizo was pissed off on why this is in your closet.

He then heard you come in as he got up and brought everything to you. "When were you going to get rid of this shit, seriously", Heizou said as he thrown the stuff around as he cursed you out. As Heizou was on about he tried putting the tape in to see what you could not be telling him. You tried telling him you haven't seen that stuff in years and that's why it was deep in you closet cause you were with him now.

But Heizou still plated the tape to see you having some sexual tension with your friends. Heizou only looked away from the screen as you looked away from him. "But why wont you tell me!" "Cause see how your reacting", Now Heizou was mad for a whole different reason on how it looked like ge could've been your first. With added with the moans in the back ground Heizou grew sexually frustrated.

And with that this is how Heizou had his ass in the as you pulled his hair back making him watch the sex tape. "See how they take my cock/strap baby, do you", Heizou can only moan as he saw how Kazuha was taking you in from the back like him. "You know your a better fuck the all of them right", with that Heizou only tighten around and you knew too. "You like that huh, this cock is only yours like how this whole is only mine right", you yelled slapping him on his ass earning a yelp with him yelling out a yes. "Yeah i want t-to be the only-one", your thrusting became faster and rougher and combined with the mians of your friends Heizou came to his climax cumming all over your cock/strap. With that the tape ended but werent.

After a few more rounds you finally came leaving a satisfied Heizou after. After cleaning you told Heizou that all that happened before you two got together and proving that with dates from the letters. "And it felt weird almost awkward to tell you, sorry if i knew you would have been this upset about it and you have the right to". "Its fine now darling i understand at least now i know you have a talent of taking lewd tapes and with that, i wanna be your next star". You only chuckled pulled Heizou closer to you. "Maybe we will, but hey honey" "Yeah" "Im not going out to hang with any of them for awhile right" "Yes".

Lasko with a shifter listener….HEAR ME OUT:

Lasko meets them through the Shaw pack (specifically Milo and Sweetheart) he gets invited to a pack party and meets a particularly attractive shifter

I’d imagine he’d be with someone a little like Gavin- in that they’d relentlessly flirt with him.

LIKE IMAGINE LASKO CUDDLED UP WITH A BIG ASS WOLF WHOS SUPER PROTECTIVE OF HIM

Speaking of which- KODY

They hate Kody, especially how he talks to Lasko; someone they value very highly and absolutely adore. And holy shit they scare him sobad, imagine Kody coming to class the next day with a black eye and broken arm after making fun of Lasko’s stutter.

They take him out on a date and pause- “is it inappropriate to take a professor out on a date where his students frequent? Even after you fu-“ “ITS FINE”

They’re super blunt to say the least.

He either calls them something ironic like: Sugar. Or by their pack Codename (I imagine they have code names for each other during security jobs) THE PACK CALLS THEM BEAR BECAUSE THEY LOOK LIKE A LITERAL BEAR WHEN SHIFTED.

HE CALLS THEM SUGAR BEAR IM A GENIUS (just kinda in my own little world at this point hush)

Bear works for Shaw Security and regularly works out with Ash and Christian (regrettably) it’s mostly just arguing though but that’s just pack for ya.

Lasko owns a bear hoodie

BEAR IS A CLOSETED GENSHIN IMPACT PLAYER AND ENJOYER- venti reminds them of Asher

These two meeting were a pack event within itself, Angel and babe were watching them the entire time Bear and Lasko started talking Just ON THE EDGE OF THEIR SEATS

Bear leaning on the counter and crossing their arms: “a professor, huh? Whaddya teach?” WITH JUST THE MOST INTNSE AND INTERESTED GAZE

Imagine the DAMN crew meeting Bear- HUXLEY THINKS THEYRE SO DOPE and Damien’s just happy his friend found someone.

They carry Lasko around his apartment when he’s sick

Lasko relives stress by burying himself in their coat WHICH IS THICK AND BROWN AND SO FLUFFY

They aren’t the BIGGEST wolf like David is, but they’re about the same size as Asher. THEY ARE SO FUCKING FAST THOUGH MILO HATES IT

They used to fight Darlin for snacks

HUX AND BEAR WORK OUT TOGETHER

Huxley used to DJ for DAMN parties and Bear shared playlists with him

Bear’s aesthetic:

#redacted asmr #redacted audio #redacted lasko #lasko moore #redacted damn #Lasko needs a listener and I’m gonna riot if this isn’t exactly how it goes no matter how unlikely that may be #fuck you Bear is a cute nickname #Milo gave it to them when they were little and he saw them shift for the first time and Marie kept it going #they interned with Colm when they enrolled at DAMN and shit was BRUTAL #legend has it they’re still sore

Bad Batch Season 3, Episode I Don't Even Know And Honestly Will Not Be Keeping Track * SPOILERS * (solely because Mina Nunyabiz *REAL NAME REDACTED* has gone on so many diatribes about this inexcusable social faux pas on Tumblr known as failing to accurately and comprehensively tag your posts for pieces of media which some people haven't gotten to watching yet and this means that if they wish to be on Tumblr without getting unwanted foreknowledge they have to undergo some vast and imprecise tribulation known as filtering by tag)

I have come to two, nay, three, EIGHT whole conclusions: a. Tech hacked the Star Wars Internet. b. Tech was the Star Wars Internet. c. Pabu does not have Star Wars Internet. d. The Batch cannot function without their Internet. e. The Batch has lost its sole functioning strategic brain cell. Hemlock caught it when Tech fell. The muscle and the face are kind of just winging it now; the auxiliary brain cell said "haha see you later, losers, I need to be Rex's chauffeur"; and the attitude's first and only plan is, as always, just "KILL". f. These men are adorable and also utter morons. g. Crosshair has no experience with women. Ever. He doesn't even know how to talk to them. They're a different species to him even when they aren't literally a different species. His two methods of social interaction just recently expanded to three (murder, snark, and now mother hen) and still none of them have anything to do with proper behavior towards adult females. Let alone one who doesn't share his genes. You can tell by the way he wildly swung from default "PICK FIGHT/KILL" to "offer genteel non-sarcastic hand up to my ship without sarcasm after you almost got my Stockholm syndroming sister killed by a giant turtle because if I can't kill you I literally am at a loss for how to behave towards you". h. Tech was the only member of the squad who ever bothered to get a newspaper and check to see who they were actually fighting.

Omega IS unsettling. Well noticed Venti

Hunter, continuing to be the king of asking the specific follow-up questions that the audience feels is relevant and the askee absolutely cannot answer without losing their mysterious vibes (see: season 1 finale -- "WHEN did you have your chip removed, exactly" "Does it matter?" "YES")

Hunter, continuing to be the king of not getting an answer to his very reasonable specific follow-up question

For special ops commandos in a war they were literally created to fight, these guys do not seem to have much of a concept of "stranger danger"

"ASKING FOR A FRIEND" omigosh Omega. I have never been so ashamed of you. The big fascist experiment-happy regime is after you. WHY CAN YOU STILL NOT LIE

Why is Omega just. In charge now

And still the most unbelievable thing about this episode was like half a minute in with Crosshair willingly helping a random Pabuan AND not mercing them when they dared to smile, thank him, and use his name

HOWEVER MANY EPISODES IN AND WE JUST GOT TO THE ANSWER THAT EVERYBODY ALREADY KNEW ABOUT M-COUNTS

WAY TOO MANY EPISODES IN AND WE STILL DIDN'T GET A STRAIGHT-UP ANSWER ABOUT OMEGA'S

Qui-gon had a blood test! With a little litmus stick and everything! The crazy weed-addicted space monk had a scientific stick he jabbed baby Anakin with and HEY PRESTO M-COUNT SPREADSHEET. WHERE IS THAT HANDY BIT OF TECHNOLOGY HUH

[decarabiandivorce]

AU where the entire old mondstadt gang gets revived into modern (as in version 4.4 give or take) teyvat. Nb and venti are absolutely overjoyed to see eachother again, gunnhildr and jean have an “:D twinsies!!!!!!!” moment, diluc has to take a few seconds to comprehend that the redhaired warrior is not in fact his dad (genetics is one thing but those two look nearly identical), and amos is off somewhere teaching amber and razor how to hunt. everything is going great until the traveler reports to venti a few days later that they can’t do their weekly dvalin bossfight because someone keeps arguing with him and occupying the domain (deca comes along too but the only reason no one knew is because he was too busy trying to negotiate who lives in the tower and how)

This is all wonderful but consider this: Decarabian is just laying on the floor of the boss fight and Dvalin is just. "TRAVELER PLEASE MOVE HIM. I THINK HE'S DEAD. HE HASN'T MOVED IN .... A WEEK OR SO"

Dvalin has no context on who this guy is. He smells kinda like Barbatos but why is just???? Laying down???? He could feel the sadness emanating from the guy and its Really killing the vibe.

The old Mondstadt and new Mondstadt team barge into the tower battle ready and are "..." when he's not even attempting to fight.

Deca is just in shock and has been processing things. For instance apparently his entire city hates him???? And then they tried to murder him???? And.... and they succeeded. He could feel ever speck of light inside him fade away. His citizens murder him. Amos murderes him. They set fire to the tower and killed him.

So many emotions are going through his head. Sadness. Bitterness. Fear for his citizens. Anger. All the stages of grief and betrayal!!!

Also theres a giant dragon here now and a blonde person with a talking toddler trying to swordfight. Huh. This might as well be happening.

#Diluc did not tell Keaya that his ancestor was back and so imagine his shock when he walks into Angel's share and sees his dad #<Diluc. You could have told me.> #<... you would have found out on your own> #<Oh hello! Are you friends with my kin?> #<His brother actually> #< :0. Diluc why didn't you-> #<That is none of your business. drink your wine and / or leave > #steel text #Decarabian #genshin #old Mondstadt

i'm going to confess to you on the last day of the windblume festival, okay? — so wait for me outside the tavern!

contains: venti x gn!reader, canon genshin universe... ish, cute stuff, reader is definitely unaware that he's barbatos lol

notes: reader is giving marupok idkidk, look ik venti isn't like in ur top five genshin men BUT COME ONN he's my fave can't you let me send in ONNEEE venti prompt?? 🥺🥺🥺

the fresh air of spring and the beloved celebrations of Mond and its archon, the windblume festival is in full swing! love and liveliness is everywhere, and even you too now have someone to pine over — the best bard of Mondstadt!

something about the man you have a puny little crush on makes you feel so, so giddy — as if a young teen in love. your thoughts of confession resurfaced in the light of the windblume festival, as you wish to make venti your windblume.

honestly, you've never thanked barbatos so much in a day for letting the months pass by so fast. you walk the streets like everyday, but what you feel is different. this isn't just the yearly windblume you'd been celebrating with friends; it's your chance! another one at love, the first one to venti...

you aren't very sure at how many shots of your love venti can take, because as much as he talks, he happens to be quite mysterious. alas, this could be because you aren't a raging drunkard rarely drink.

venti and you do often walk around together, strolling through the plaza just ahead of the adventurers guild. your feelings for him are different from the what you felt from the others. you're scared, but not in the ways of the past.

you're especially scared that he'll deny you — deny what you have to present for him. you have so much to unpack, so you start with giving venti a heads up for the upcoming one or two weeks...

"ah, venti! i'd been looking for you... ehm, could i talk to you for a bit?"

"[name], hello to you too! and of course."

"uh.. okay, um... i'm going to confess to you on the last day of the windblume festival okay?"

"huh..? [name], you don't mean-"

"so, just... wait for me outside the tavern!"

"hey, hey! you can't just tell me that all of the sudden..."

"...i have to go somewhere.., now — goodbye venti! make sure you don't forget!!"

...

you say goodbyes to your friends as they all go home. they all tease you for how you told venti you'd be confessing to him, but still! he'd never forget your words, would he?

-

look, stare, look away, repeat.

waiting... and he's still not out. you stand near the tavern, to watch for venti.

you hear the faint sound of a delicately played lyre and a certain bards voice...

"my windblume, mind to join me at starsnatch cliff?"

planning to write for kazuha soon ! not hcs and he is not mashed with another character this time - just kazuha and his glory. +SHOUTOUT TO LUNASMR YOU ARE A REAL ONE !!!! -still with you anon

yes, venti may not be in my top five genshin men but i’ll hold this prompt close to my heart because it’s so soft and nice my teeth started hurting..

chuckling to myself because this venti prompt is so fluffy it hurts

#📬 lume answers #still with you anon!! #swy back at it again with their amazing prompts!!! #and i’ll await your kazuha prompt 🤭 #genshin impact x reader #genshin x reader #venti x reader
