penacony pt. 1 - firefly
spoilers for honkai star rail's trailblazer story below:
I'm not a big fan of Firefly so far story-wise which is disappointing, because I love her design. Her personality is very innocent and cute, written to be sympathized with and to maximize moe value, dashed with an obligatory tragic backstory to make you go "awww". because I had seen speculations/headcanons before Penacony was released that firefly may be controlling Sam’s robo-suit, I was expecting firefly to reveal her true colors/motivation that was less “Omg I’m sorry I lied I can’t tell you everything rn but I am not totally innocent :(” and more “I like you and wish we didn’t have to be enemies but I’m going to use you before anyone else can. Sorry, but also not sorry.” (it’s still early, there are definitely more acts to the story, so I haven’t marked this possibility out yet).
but at least for the first part of the main story, the purpose for firefly is just cannon emotional fodder. Later, if she comes back, any further role she plays will probably be cheapened from this lackluster introduction. Unless she has some master plan under wraps and her cute and innocent persona was all/mostly a guise…
I do like some of the moments and cut scenes we had with firefly around Golden Hour and firefly’s dialogue about the struggles with her illness and how Penacony is an escape for her. I just wished the writers leaned more on two strangers who get caught in an adventure filled with hijinks across one of the liveliest places in the cosmos rather than playing too hard into the Lies and Truths and Who Can I Trust Here? game since I felt that that was already established with the representatives of the other factions. MC and firefly going back and forth shouldn’t have been included, maybe, or firefly could’ve been upfront and more flippant—up the ante on firefly’s admiration for the Nameless, since they also represent the freedom firefly lacks due to her condition. That would give her the trust and motivation to show MC around and take her to her secret hideout, and tbh for me MC is spacey and casual enough to go along with it. Firefly MAY be dangerous, but MC is gonna take a chance and trust her bc s/he is having fun and we’re in Penacony and on vacation and everything is so cool! And we don’t have any reason to doubt her, and it’s not like we’re divulging any secrets to her, so what’s the harm in getting to know her? I don’t think this is the first time MC blindly trusted someone either, and it’s believable for me, considering MC has “child-like innocence” (that or is sensitive to memoria or both).
Firefly could totally be honest later that she’s also looking for the Watchmaker’s Legacy, but keep the line that she doesn’t wish us to be enemies. lessen her gratitude that we “saved” her from being caught as a stowaway. Ngl I blanked out a bit during that scene, but to me it was less us and more the fact that Gallagher showed up at the right time to tell the NPCs off, so any following gushing from Firefly about how kind and helpful MC was rubbed me the wrong way (which is why I was always waiting for the other shoe to drop because I was like, this girl can’t be for real). I think we should’ve avoided that whole interaction and met Firefly in a more neutral way, and then overhear that security team is looking for a silver-haired girl (I know it was silver-haired boy in the original dialogue, which is interesting, I expected some sort of reveal with that but it hasn’t come up yet) as a stowaway, or drop other hints in our interactions w/ firefly that don’t add up rather than having Sampo/Sparkle tell us she’s suspicious to our face. but maybe we don’t connect the dots until we’re on the rooftop where firefly is like, yeah I am. (Thus skipping all the lying and apologies and whatever.)
One other nitpick: stop having other strangers in-game ship MC with people they’ve just met. there can be chemistry from first meetings, but it sure as heck isn’t going to come from Bystander 1 and 2 going “oh my god you two aren’t a couple?” or “so sorry to interrupt your date?” and “she’s such a lovely and pretty young girl, you’re so lucky!” it’s just the writers telling the player that “aww aren’t you two cute? Now kiss.” *smushes two barbies together* let it develop more naturally… or at least just have the one-off line, instead of dropping the hints 3 (I don’t remember the exact number) times. like, I’m not against this mistaken-as-a-couple trope at all (I love when it’s used right), but in this instance it just feels like another emotional shortcut for the player to feel invested in firefly. It probably works for some, but it just doesn’t for me, because I know it’s not going to go anywhere. and for good reason, because it doesn’t fit in the story. I hesitate to call it fan service. It might be? Or was it supposed to be funny? Or just to show firefly’s shy/bashful side. The last one is probably it.
anyway this is just my opinion as I casually went thru the main story. I’m not a dedicated plot/lore enthusiast so I may have missed some important points but these are just my thoughts. Mostly disappointed they pulled another Teppei with firefly, although firefly is way more preferable to the shoehorn that was Teppei 💀 I just think a couple of minor tweaks could've made Firefly a more likeable character.
Update: finished the last part of the main story where Firefly is killed. I liked the cut scene, but I think we should've had the build-up tension where we uncover Firefly's tracks earlier?? Like I get that we're supposed to have the shock of a sudden death but since we had no real connection to Firefly it was very eh for me. I think that since we were going to backtrack anyway, we could switch POVs for a second to walk around as Firefly in a series of disjointed scenes and then re-converge as MC right before they meet. Dunno though tbh.
Now, when Aventurine leads us to Robyn's corpse, that was epic.

DAY 4 KINKTOBER 2023
7 min in heaven? More like 7 days inside you!
Main Masterlist + Rules / Next Day of kinktober (5)
A/N: Please read the rules on my kinktober 2023 main masterlist before proceeding. Rule breakers will be blocked.
Characters involved (separated): Malleus draconia(TWST), Wriothlesly(Genshin), Ayato(Genshin), Nanook(HSR), Luo Cha(HSR)
Sypnosis: After getting officially married, you and your husband decided to finally go to your long awaited 7 days honeymoon in a resort at private island specially reserved by your husband! Those 7 days were meant to be fun and relaxing, but why are you so tired by the end of it?
C/W: Thigh riding in public area(library), needy and horny reader but they just encourage you more lel, praising
BY OPENING THE TAB BELOW, YOU CONSENT TO READ DC/SMUT WRITING + HAVE READ THE RULES
Day 4 Scenario
It came as a shock to you and your husband that there happens to be a library in the middle of a private island, at a resort. It was the 4th day of your honeymoon and the both of you had decided to explore around the island. "Wife, is my eyes playing tricks on me, or is that a library that I see?" Your husband gestures to the small cottage in front at the side of the pathway. Upon walking closer to the cottage, the both of you realised that it was indeed a library. There was a wooden sign beside the cottage engraved with the words "Library". For the first time in the honeymoon, your husband was the one genuinely looking excited. He intertwines his fingers with yours before pulling you in to cottage. Knowing your husband's fondness with books, you giggled at his excitement, squeezing his hand to let him know that you were okay with going to the library. To your husband's delight, the library was indeed filled with a variety of local books that could not be found back home. He picks up an old book before swiftly plopping down on a nearby couch. "Wife, come here." He pats on his man spread thigh, urging you to sit on his lap. You pout at his clinginess, hand reaching up to the bookshelves and picking a random book before getting yourself comfortable on his lap. "This much more better mhm." Your husband rest his chin on top of your head while both of his arm were encircled around you, holding onto the book and reading it like a bookworm that he is. You knew that the both of you were probably gonna stay here for a few hours, so you went ahead to flip open the book that you had randomly picked out, hoping to pass time. The book that you were reading was rather...... interesting. It was a typical romance story between 2 high school students, except they were doing the deed in an empty classroom. Your face flushed in red when you read through the whole paragraph. The author had managed to write the scene in such a detailed and erotic manner, to the point where you can feel your wetness seeping through your folds, staining onto your panties and eventually wetting on your husband's pants. "Oh dear," your husband looks down at your book, reading the very same paragraph that had made you horny and needy on him. "That's quite a book there, wife."
𝗠𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗨𝗦 𝗗𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗜𝗔
He is quick to set his (and yours) book aside, hands planting onto your waist as he guides your body to grind your pussy on his thigh. "Don't be shy, just let out your inner desire, love." Malleus encourages, and his lips curls out into a smirk when your hips starts moving faster and faster.
A quiet moan slips out of your lips when the material of Malleus's pants rub against your sloppy folds. Malleus could feel his cock throbbing hard in his pants but he focuses on pleasing you instead, groping onto your breast and pinching on your nipples to give your extra stimulation.
"Oh dear," He mumbles, feeling a pool of wet stain soaking through his leather pants on the area that you are riding on. "Did you just came without telling me? No no, let's do it again."
𝗪𝗥𝗜𝗢𝗧𝗛𝗟𝗘𝗦𝗟𝗬
He pretends to not notice the pool of arousal that has been staining onto his pants for awhile. You would have thought that Wriothlesly wasn't aware of it, not until the arm that was wrapped around your waist purposefully dragging you closer to his body.
You blushed in embarassment when you saw your slick on Wriothlesly's pants, which was evident by a "dark stain". "Wife, you just made a mess on my pants." Wriothlesly chuckles, his hand switches to grab onto your hips, guiding it backwards and forward on his thigh.
The stains on his pants had grown in size, with a white blooch of cum on it. The obvious evident of your cum was painted on him. Despite your embarassment, Wriothlesly only laughed at you, hands still rocking you back and forth on his thigh.
𝗞𝗔𝗠𝗜𝗦𝗔𝗧𝗢 𝗔𝗬𝗔𝗧𝗢
"This feels like something we had done back home, isn't it?" Ayato smirks when you gradually starts on grind your cunt on him, small moans spilling out of your lips when the rough material of his pants rubs deliciously against your sex, sending waves of pleasures down your spine.
Grinding on Ayato's thigh was something that the both of you had been frequently doing whenever Ayato was busy with his work. It was something that allows him to get intimate with you while getting his work done on time. Like always, he would coo at you and praise you for being his good wife, knowing how to satisfy the sexual needs of your husband and yourself.
And now, even when you are both on vacation, he encourages you to grind your slutty sex on him more, rubbing on your clit so that you can chase onto your high faster.
𝗡𝗔𝗡𝗢𝗢𝗞
He can smell your arousal before it even starts staining onto your panties.
"Are you getting turned on by this book? Should we recreate this scene?" Nanook grunts when the smell of your arousal gets stronger and stronger, indicating that his suggestion was something that you indeed wanted.
However, he was an Aeon of Destruction for a reason. What's the use of upholding such a prestige title if he doesn't destroy first?
"Baby, grind on me and I will give you my cock." Nanook's lips curls up into a sinister smirk when you start rocking your hips back and forth on his thigh, whining about how mean he is to you. "Why can't you just give it to me first?" You pout, trying to act cute and hoping that Nanook would falter at your antics but he doesn't.
"You won't get it until you cum on my thigh."
𝗟𝗨𝗢 𝗖𝗛𝗔
Luo cha enjoys teasing you a little too much. He knows that you are horny, and yet he pretends to not know about it. His attention "returns" back to his book, letting you sit on his thigh flushed, needy and embarassed.
However, he would occasionally jerk up his thigh, letting the fabric of his pants brushed onto your clothed sex. Luo cha would apologise for the inconvenience, saying that he needed to stretch his leg muscle.
He can feel your sex throbbing in need, your slick already making a mess on his pants. Maybe if you tell him that you need him, then he will indulge you a little?

Netflix and Chill with HSR Men
Pairings: Sampo, Gepard, Dan Heng, Blade, Jing Yuan x Reader (separately)
Masterlist
Requests are open
Warning: Suggestive theme
Sampo Koski
He doesn't subscribe to Netflix or any streaming service, he pirated series and movies.
He texted, "Heyyyy my baby my love my sunshine, I got the new Guardian of Galaxy. Your place or mine?"
He will prepare a lot of snacks and drinks.
Watching it on your laptop on your bed.
Genuinely interested at first but when the plot slowed down, his hands will travel to your body and he started to make out with you.
Stealing glances once in a while to the tv while kissing you and pleasuring you. 
You had a hard time staying in the mood though because you were laughing at something on the laptop and ruined the mood.
"Sorry, Sampo…" you giggled while Sampo was trying hard to get you off, "I can't do this."
Both of you then would be too engrossed in what's happening in the film and end up cuddling or stuffing your faces with snacks.
"Should have chosen something boring," Sampo murmured as he stuffed his mouth with a fist of snacks. 
Jing Yuan
Choosing the best time of day is crucial.
He's mostly busy though so you usually only watch films with him on the weekend. 
He felt too comfortable around you so most likely will end up with him dozing off for a few minutes, several times.
"Wake me up in five," He said as he put his head on your thigh. 
As soon as he puts his head there, you can hear a soft snore from him.
Sleep easier when you play with his hair. It's his number 1 weakness. 
Of course you don't have the heart to wake him up since he had a busy week, even though that means you have to watch the movie alone.
Once he wakes up he will ask how's the plot so far.
Gepard Landau
Really excited to watch movies with you.
Enjoys anime, thriller series and even drama.
Gets easily moved by the plot. Will shed tears if the movie is sad. 
If you watch a horror film, he will cover his ears and scoot closer to you.
"I'm more scared of the sound effect rather than the visual."
But he'll shut his eyes tightly if the scene gets too terrifying.
When you make a move at him, he will act shy and glance at you in disbelief 
"Please, I'm watching right now."
But once you start to kiss him, he'll give in and follow the flow.
Once you both finished the deed, he will rewind the movie to the last scene you guys left off.
Dan Heng
Will be the one to recommend movies to watch
Will provide you with brief synopsis and trivia about the movie before you guys watch
"It gets a high score in Letterboxd." He said to convince you to watch.
Of course you're not really looking forward to watching, you look forward to cuddling on his bed.
Or more than cuddling.
However, he will be annoyed if you disturbed him watching.
But once he realized you were demanding his attention, he would pause the movie and rain you with kisses.
Blade
You know there would be no "Netflix-ing" with Blade and more "Chilling"
But you recommend watching a movie with him anyway. 
He will let you pick anything you want. 
He made comments throughout the movie several times, how ridiculous the plot is, how bad the acting is.
"Seriously, the joke is so corny."
"What the hell is wrong with his hair."
His comments annoyed you sometimes. 
10 mins after the movie he made his move towards you.
Started to touch you (in inappropriate places) while still making comments about the movies.
The commentary drives you nuts (and also his fingers) so you shut him up by kissing him hard (or by giving him a head…)
AN: Me if writing sleepy Jing Yuan is a crime:
Tumblr media
Hope you enjoyed this!

"i remember it all too well" prt. 1
Tumblr media
sypnosis: a reminiscence of a love once cherished
features: bachira, rin, reo, sae, isagi, nagi
a/n: i need to stop playing hsr its consuming almost all hours of my life n e ways here's bllk boys w some lyrics from all to well (10 mins version)(taylor's version) 😧 also ☝ angst is not my forte i apologize if the angst parts seemed off i tried my best 😞 HAHAHAHAHA
Tumblr media
“you almost ran the red 'cause you were lookin' over at me”
bachira meguru was an eccentric lover. he likes to have fun and takes you on dates you’d never even expect. one time, during your second date, he took you out to go bungee jumping. you were frozen on the platform for 30 minutes while he was down there, cheering you on with a stupid smile on his face and his phone recording you. 
right now, you guys are on the way home after a day at a cat cafe. they were really cute but their fur all over you was not cute at all. you look out the window, admiring the view as the car sped through the road. you hold back a laugh as you pass by a squirrel falling down a tree with its acorn stuck in the branch. you turn to tell bachira when you notice he’s already looking at you.
“eyes on the road!”
“i got my eye on you.” and to push it further, he points two fingers in your direction. sighing lighty, you shove his face to turn to the road. “you can eye me later if we don’t die.”
bachira whips his head to look at you accusingly. “excuse me?! my driving skills are maxed out, you know. and besides, who’s the one with the license between us, huh? that’s right. me. bachira megu–” “yeah, yeah. shut up.” you try to shush him however that seemed to only seethe him more. more screams of fury and annoyance comes from bachira. you were only seconds away from tuning him out when you saw the traffic light glow red. immediately, you urged bachira to step on the brakes. with the panic in your voice, he abides at once. 
now at a stop sign, deep breaths coming from the two of you fill the vehicle. giggles and laughter following after. “oh my god, stop laughing, meguru.” he halts his laughter. playfully gesturing a zipper over his lips yet the obvious grin on his face gives it away. 
“can we both agree to always keep an eye on the road now?”
“yes, ma’am… got my other eye on you tho.”
“bachira.”
Tumblr media
“you taught me 'bout your past, thinking your future was me”
getting into a relationship wasn’t in itoshi rin’s bucket list. or any list really. never did he think that he’ll be here at 3am in the morning, on his bed, with you, and he’s telling you all about him. from the very first time he held a soccer ball to the day sae left for spain. he confided in you, hiding no side of his self and showing you all and even letting you see through him completely.
“so, this is it?” the air was cold. breaking up on a december night? it almost makes him laugh. he’d fight for it but.. what was the point? this is the ending of a lover story. your love story. if he tries to change the ending, who knows what could happen next? you stay with him out of pity? or you get tired and all goes in a circle once more. he stays silent. not uttering one word and maybe that set you off because you dragged a hand down your face. he observes you for the first time in weeks. you look really tired and if letting this end would make you happy then so be it.
he walks past you and that leaves you baffled. so he’s just leaving, you think to yourself. chest aching and hands itching to reach out, but you don’t. because if he’s walking away without a word, what are the chances he’ll hear you out?
“oh god, i never thought it could end up like this.” rin hears you whisper to yourself as he grabs his coat and makes his way to the door. he bites on his lips, urging the tears brimming his eye to not fall. not now. as he strolls through the park, he mutters to himself. “neither did i.” but you weren’t there to hear him. only the moon knows.
Tumblr media
“we're dancing 'round the kitchen in the refrigerator light”
loving mikage reo was unexpected and something you’re grateful for. he’s the best boyfriend one could ever ask for. he fell in love with you at first sight when you took his coffee order at the cafe down the block. the continues to visit the coffee shop with a bouquet of flowers dedicated for you everyday until you give him your number.
cravings at midnight are common. you had them a lot so sneaking out of reo’s arms became something you’re skilled at. tiptoeing towards the fridge, you rummage through every shelf to find something to eat. a yelp escapes you as you felt cold hands slid under your shirt. reo’s laughter breaks your shock, turning to hit him in the chest. that just seems to make him laugh more.
“hi, sweetheart. what are you doing?” he smiles like he did nothing wrong. you scowl at him before turning to rummage through the fridge once again. “i’m hungry. i wanna eat.”
“oh? should we just order then?” reo asks you, pulling out his phone and opening a delivery app.  he was about to click on an item until your hand blocks his phone while you stare him down with a glare. “reo, your fridge is full to the brim. baa-ya even had to push things in the pantry ‘cause there’s no more space!”
“come on, use your inside voice inside the house.” like the smooth man he is, he cuddles you in his arms, swaying the both of you side by side. only to stop when you pinch his side. “ow! what was that for?”
“don’t dance with me when the fridge door is open!”
“but it’s romantic!”
“an overpriced electricity bill isn’t!”
“you’re not even the one paying the bills–ow!”

i've played hsr new story update while travelling on long car rides, and its actually quite good! like i would bet real life money that its done by new writers, or at least like a new lead writer or smth, bc execution can be eh at times, but overall direction clearly knows what its doing
hsr spoilers, like the plot beats are pretty strong, and pivotal moments which were given attention are well dramatized, but in-between can still be pretty meandering. like strongest scene is obv blondie vs christian ayato and it by itself gives more than enough context for blondie's backstory with being last survivor and slavery. but then there's still like an hour of blondie's flashbacks and him just running around, talking to himself.
while like welt and archeron are just standing in place or walking and talking and nothing cool happens. like direction was "they get deeper understanding of each other, welt learns that acheron killed the second most cool character design after nannook for no fucking reason, they bond about being depressed nihility and unsubtly criticizing usamerica". but there was literally no interesting action to dramatize all this
i think itd be better if they cut like 40 min of blondie's self talk, bc honestly you can dramatize his conflict and backstory much more effecientely, and spent that time instead on giving welt and acheron smth cool to do. idk, mb one of the destruction gang kids is there causing trouble, they investigate, the acheron killing the duke comes up, etc.

As Sparkle's banner has now begun, and a barrage of Sparkle guides were released by multiple youtubers on the dot, I would like to remind everyone that you got this far without her.
Busted characters and "must roll" supports are almost always a trap to run you dry. If you don't like her, and especially if you want someone else coming soon like Acheron or Aventurine, you don't need to roll for her. Don't be tricked by every youtuber telling you that you need her. You don't. HSR is a very F2P friendly game. Bronya, Silver Wolf, Jingliu, Sparkle etc make your life easier and are great for min maxing, but they are not compulsory for enjoyment.
This is just a PSA from me, someone who's played a lot of gacha games for a long time, to those who may not know as much and might be swayed by fancy infographics and catchy thumbnails and titles.
I firmly believe in rolling for love, not for meta.
(Btw if you do like her or you like min maxing and stuff then go ahead. No one's stopping you lol)
