Some things about Clavia, my Genshin OC, part of my Genshinverse that all my fics are currently set in. So a lot of headcanon and filling in gaps to my liking.
(I made her with the Miscellany Picrew which is really nice for Genshin OCs, I will link it here! https://picrew.me/en/image_maker/1235129)
The little template thingy below is made by me.
Tumblr media
—she’s an extreme history nerd and is very fascinated with Teyvat history
—she read in secret as a child, as knowledge of Teyvat was forbidden in Khaenri’ah
—she has a tendency to break her glasses
—she is very autistic
—she can speak Mondstadtian pretty well when she goes there since she has taught herself languages
—she knows ancient Khaenri’ahn
—she has light powers but they’re considerably weaker than Dain’s and not developed + she has to hide them
—at first she does not understand the concept of adoption since her parents are bloodline maniacs and she talks about adoption as infiltrating someone’s family. Kaeya feels like he’s a burden on the Ragnvindrs so this is totally not helpful and she and Diluc also want to murder each other for a bit. They figure it out, but then she’s jealous because Kaeya got taken in by a loving family and she didn’t.
—she saw pictures of Raiden Makoto in a history book and that was her lesbian awakening
—her younger sister Alina works for the Abyss Order and was doing a commission for them in Liyue and she brought back a women’s fashion magazine. Clavia pointed out on of the girls she thought was pretty and Alina told her not to steal all the women. Alina seems to have a thing for Liyuan girls (which is like totally scandalous because the Alberiches (at this point) are pureblood maniacs + they act like Caribert just didn’t happen lmao).
—Clavia applied for the Akydemia but wasn’t accepted. They said she isn’t ready but she thinks they just don’t want her because she’s Khaenri’ahn. She’s decided rules are bad anyway.
—she stayed with Kaeya for a month after arriving in Mond but he kicked her out because Dain was using the guest room.
—Lisa lets her stay in a spare room for free as long as she does work for her like cleaning since Lisa is lazy. It’s the same place that Kaeya stayed when he was homeless (because that happened)
—she does odd jobs for the knights but isn’t an official member. She’s definitely fence sitting on that lol because Diluc would kill her if she joined + she doesn’t like rules.
—she got blackout drunk in Sumeru when Kaeya challenged her to a drinking contest. She liked the taste but did not like the affects of it so she doesn’t drink since. She’d also probably say it would impair her focus or something.
—she wants to open her own school in Mondstandt or northern Liyue because she doesn’t fuck with three Akydemia anyway.
—also this has nothing to do with Clavia but Dain forgot his last name (I’m getting around the fact that he doesn’t have one) and he’s also Kaeya’s roommate and like a house husband (they aren’t married) but yeah lmao. So hee and Diluc come over one time I forget why but yeah Clavia talks about hating her family blah blah blah. She says she’s a freak and then basically Diluc says he’s also not normal lol. Then she jokingly refers to everyone as the Ragnvindr-Alberich-Navatii-Dainsleif-with-no-last-name-family” (Navatii is Kaeya’s mothers name in the my fanfic universe, she was a badass Eremite lol. He was gonna take her name but Jean said it wouldn’t go over well with diplomatic meetings so he changed back to Ragnvindr again, bro has had four name changes atp lmao [him and Diluc are reconciled at this point in the fic so yeah]).
—she kinda accidentally became a therapist to Kaeya and tried to offer him some emotional support but she’s bad at feelings
—she says the Knights need a counseling service lmao.
—even after months of being in Mond, the sun still hurts her eyes. She needs glasses to see well anyway.
—the only person who cared for her growing up was her maternal grandmother who died when she was thirteen.
—she likes Jean but is intimidated by her.
—Lisa is sort of a mother figure to her
—I’m pretty sure her light powers come from her mom’s side even thought the trait itself hasn’t shown up in generations. I haven’t decided who Albina is but maybe she’s related to Dain somehow. I’m writing my own Dainsleif lore since they won’t give it to us heheh. The Abyssal powers (Abyss blood, it makes you cold blooded and it’s basically dark energy vs. light energy, yeah totally headcanon) but Kaeya has Abyss powers and Clavia has light powers.
—this is also not related to anything but Dain and Kaeya are sort of a couple in this fanfic universe. If that bothers anyone please don’t read. But it’s slow burn and I don’t write smut anyway.
—gosh there’s so much context. You could read my 70k word fanfic with her. I have some short fics in the same universe but they kinda spoil the longfic but everything is explained in there hehe. Anyway I’ll link my AO3 if anyone is curious. No obligation hah. It not letting me copy paste but it is RiahWrites02 and the main fic is linked in my intro post.

warnings: threats and subtle signs of abuse
Chapter 2
Buzz. Buzz. Buzz. Buzz
Jude sleepily opened her eyes not able to ignore the constant buzzing of her phone on the bedside. She blindly threw her hand out searching for the source of the horrid noise. Once her hand closed around her phone she opened it was blinded by the brightness.
 Buzz. Buzz.
 Blinking quickly she opened text messages and bolted upright in bed. How could she have forgotten. Looking down at her phone was 8 messages from Dain and more coming 
Dain: "Hey"
Dain: "Where have you been"
Dain: "Can you call me?"
Dain: "Jude. Call me"
Dain: "Its late are you okay"
Dain: “You better be at home"
Dain: "Good morning"
Dain: "Can you hang out today" 
Dain: "Are you up?"
Dain: "Wake up babe"
I frantically typed out a good morning whitch in seconds he replied 
Dain: "Good afternoon. It's Noon but that's okay how are you?"
Jude: "I'm good" 
Dain: "Where were you last night?"
I couldn't tell him about the fights. He didn't know and wouldn't let me continue if he knew. The problem was I was slowly running out of excuses and they were getting more and more far fetched.
Jude: "I was on a late night walk. Didn't want my phone on me"
Dain: "You should always have your phone on you" 
Jude: "I didn't want it to disturb me"
Dain: "What if something happened"
Nothing would have happened but I couldn't tell him that. 
Jude: "Oh I should probably get breakfast and stuff. Text you later!" 
I threw the blankets to the side and slid off the bed. There was no part of my body that wasn't sore or just plain hurting. As I walked to my closet I noticed a big bruise on my upper thigh that must have manifested overnight. I'd have to find something to cover that up. I found a long dark forest green shirt that I styled with a tie in the front. I honestly thought about just wearing that to be scandalous but I put on some ripped jeans so I wouldn't get arrested. I decided to leave my hair down today. I was downstairs by 12:15
I was in a rush. I had wanted to get to work by 11. I do own my own shop but I want to open at a decent time and I've already slept through my alarm. Now I was very late and was snapping at Taryn to get a move on. Taryn often accompanies me to work just to leave after about 15 minutes. 
"Lets fucking go. I have customers"
"Okay okay. Let me get my shoes on!"
I groaned and just went outside, she could catch up. The shop was in town so the walk took a bit but Taryn refused to ride on my motorcycle. Why didn't she wake me up then I wouldn't be so snappy or so rushed. 
I heard rapid footsteps behind me and looked back over my shoulder to see Taryn hurrying to catch up. I see her purple, no lavender (as I was corrected earlier) dress waves slightly in the wind. I’ll laugh at her if she gets into a fight. That dress will do absolutely no good in a battle of any sorts. Honestly I don’t know how people get us confused. I know we're twins but honestly I would never wear something like that. She seems to like it though so I don’t mention it.
We chatted idly about things of no importance and eventually we arrived at my shop. 
In crude cursive letters above a quaint shop said "Jude's Tattoos" Not the most creative name but Vivi said she thought it had a nice ring to it and no one had complained so far. 
Taryn turned to me and said "I'll see you later have fun at work" before walking past the shop. I didn't bother waving. I unlocked the door and went inside the small chimes of the door making me smile. I turned on the lights and the room illuminated in a nice subtle glow. There was the small waiting room in the front with the black fuzzy couch and two neon colored chairs. Some random magazines were laid out on the round wooden table in between them. Behind that was the desk that divided the front from the back workspace. I went to the back where all my supplies were set up. Around the back and on the desk one could find some of my personal stuff. I sometimes kept things here when I forgot to take them home, was too lazy, or maybe I purposely kept them here who knows. I sat down on my swivel desk chair and noticed a lipstick bottle. I popped it open to see if it was what I think it was and sure enough hidden in it was a blade. Perfect for some stealthy stabbing. Maybe I should take that home today? Eh, I could think about it later. I tossed it aside and looked at my customers for today. Only one that was supposed to come at 4.
Cardan Greenbriar who's unsure what he wants as of now.
Well I guess I got some time to kill. I moved over to the couch and pulled out my phone.
Cardan POV
"No threats huh?" 
Cardan said to himself as he completed the ransomware program on Mr. Smith's company. He pushed away from his computer smiling brightly. In about an hour he'd call and state his demands. He stood up nearly falling down again after he had been sitting so long. Once he got used to standing again he stretched and looked at the time. It was about 2 that means he'd call at  2:30 or 3. Then he had about 1 hour before he got his tattoo at a new place his friend had recommended. He still had to figure out exactly what he wanted. He had a rough idea but not exactly. He could work on that or maybe he could talk to some more companies. 
He walked upstairs still trying to roughly plan his day when he noticed himself in the mirror. Now Cardan took a lot of pride in his appearance and right now he could barely recognize himself. His hair was all over the place, his makeup smeared, bags under his eyes, and his silk pajamas were crinkled. He might have to dedicate an hour to his routine instead of the usual thirty minutes. 
He looked in his closet and pulled out a dark blue oxford shirt that he put on and tucked up the sleeves. He put on black pants with a belt that was more meant for  style than practical use and started brushing out his hair. He parted it to the left so it covered his left ear leaving his right ear for his beautiful dangling earring. He slid his rings on and added some subtle touches to his makeup. He thought he looked casual yet a bit dramatic and that worked perfectly fine for him. 
It was about 2:35 by this time and he decided to call Mr. Smith. He dialed the number on the business card that he had on his desk. After a few rings he answered with an exasperated voice "Hello how may I…"
"Hello Mr. Smith"
"Cardan?" His exasperation turning to surprise 
"Mr. Greenbriar if you please. Yes well I was wondering if you had reconsidered what you said yesterday."
"Why would I do that?"
"Just considering your circumstances at the moment"
"And how do you know about that?" 
"How do you think?" He said with a mocking tone
"You did it. Why?" Surprise and bewilderment were quite obvious in his voice.
"Because I want to be paid. It's really not that hard to understand. I don't get paid and you get punished."
"We are already working on taking it down" Cardan could tell he tried to say this with confidence but his voice wavered 
"You know it will take you too long. You will lose to many customers in that time. Quit fooling around" 
There was a long silence and Cardan was starting to think he might have hung up when his voice came through
"Okay. No more than what we were paying you though"
"Now was that so hard? Remember that I am a very valuable asset but I can also make very bad things happen. To you or to others. Alright I hope you have a lovely day" 
Cardan hung up and started to disable the program. Soon enough it was gone and Mr. Smith was under Cardan control. 
It was about 3 now and Cardan didn't know what to do. He could get Starbucks? He could text Locke? He could just go early? There was a jewelry store near the tattoo shop that his friend worked at. He could go there. He decided that was the best idea and got into the car to drive to "Atlantis Jewelry" but not before getting a coffee for the both of them. 
Cardan walked through the store door and among the glass display cases that held jewels and necklaces that glittered when the sun hit them through the perfectly aligned windows. He walked up to the front to the person who was stationed there 
"Yeah Hi I'm looking for Narcissa. She works here" 
The attendant held up a finger as in to say wait right here than went to the back. Cardan waited there coffees in hand until Narcissa came out and stretched over the counter to give Cardan a kiss on the cheek 
"Cardan! How have you been!"
"Hey. I've been good. I brought you a coffee" he handed the coffee that had whipped cream to her
"Thanks so much I definitely needed this." 
Cardan just nodded. 
"So what have you been up to?" She asked after she had taken a long sip from her drink. 
Cardan shrugged "not much is different. My neighbors moved out so now there's just an empty house next to me but other than that everything is the same. What about you?" 
"Oh well my mom went on a trip so I'm all alone for awhile which is kinda nice. My boyfriend broke up with me. I got a promotion. That tattoo shop opened across the street. It drives my manager crazy."
She started to go onto the next thing but Cardan stopped her 
"What's wrong with the tattoo shop" He didn't want to go to a faulty tattoo shop "who runs it?" 
"Just this girl" She said waving her hand dismissively "it's the music that bothers us. It's very loud" 
"Oh. That's it?" 
Apparently  that was the wrong choice of words. She glared at him "No that's not it. It scares our customers away!"
"Oh sorry. Enjoy your coffee. I'll see you later okay?"
"Yeah we should hang out soon”
"Definitely" Cardan said as he stepped out the door.
Cardan wandered a bit before going into the tattoo shop. His first thought was that it was very nice and that he liked it. The second was that he thought it was very unprofessional to be sleeping on the job. This thought came to him as he looked at what he assumed to be the owner laying down fast asleep on the couch in the front area. He wondered if he should leave and come back later but by the looks of it this girl wasn't waking up any time soon so he might as well wake her up. He walked over and tapped on her shoulder 
"Darling?"
He shook her a bit and she rolled over looking up at him. He waved slightly
"I hate to bother you but I'm supposed to be getting a tattoo" 
The girl's face went from shock, embarrassment, to frustration in the span of 5 seconds. 
"Ugh Hello welcome to Judes tattoos I'm Jude" 
"I figured" 
"And you are?" She said sitting up and flipping her hair back.
"Oh I'm Cardan" 
"Yea the boy who doesn't know what he wants" 
This girl wasn't very professional at all. He wondered how long this place would stay in business. 
"Thats me…"
"Okay. Well come on in to the back and we'll get everything worked out" 
She started walking and Cardan followed behind her wondering if this had been a good idea. It had been his friend Locke who had texted and recommended this place so that already made it suspicious and Narcissa wasn’t a big fan of the store… Was it too late to bail? On the other hand this place was somewhat new and as a bonus this girl was stunningly beautiful and he had been interested in a tattoo so why not.
He just had to hope this Jude woman wouldn't ruin his life.
ideas for his tattoo?
