What’s this I see Perhaps a treasure I long seek! Guys don’t miss out on Erika’s Venti music video! It releases tonight!!

Edit: Sorry guys it comes out in a day!!!

*What dating Venti would look like* (For me of course. You can or may have different opinions which I gladly would like to know and discuss with you in comments section, ask, or dm. Pls do I enjoy talking about Venti and I always see all of your guys comments!)

1) He is a cheeky person so be prepared for a lot of teasing and flirting.

2) If you tease and flirt back with him, he would become a bit shy and definitely be flustered. Might even become a little tsundere.

• “Venti are you flustered?” , “Of course not! You must be seeing things. After all it’s just the wine getting to us.”

3) Be prepared. He is clingy and he likes touching/pda whether it’s your hands or hugging your waist. (He does respect if you are not comfortable with it but he would like to grab your hand and he would ask before grabbing it.)

4) He is pretty and he knows it. So if he can expect to be bothered a lot because he will ask for a lot of favors. He will also outsmart you a lot.

• “Y/N please buy me wine.”, “Y/N please distract Master Diluc.”, “Y/N please! Please! Please! Pleassssseeeeee!!” Along with him hugging you from behind and doing puppy eyes.

5) You must believe (or at least respect) his Wine Supremacy. Sadly this comes at the price of dealing with his drunk butt afterwards. On the bright side he is highly wine motivated.

• “Y/N! Did you know you are the prettiest in my eyes?”, “Yes Venti, you told me already 7 times.”, “Did you also know that I love you?”, “Yes Venti I know.”, “Y/N do you love me?”, “Yes Venti I do.”, “*Hick* No you don’t! You won’t tell me you love me! *starts crying*”, “*sighs* I love you Venti please stop crying we are almost home.”, “Really? You love me?”, “Yes Venti.” “Yay!” And then he would cling to you for the rest of the night.”

6) You guys would have an unrestricted relationship. Meaning that he wouldn’t interfere (unless you want him to or ask him to) with any of your decisions, responsibilities, etc. and you also wouldn’t interfere in his life as well.

• An example, he won’t interfere with your job and you won’t interfere with his nights at Angels Share.

7) His love language is quality time. Meaning that despite the fact that he may leave from time to time (because I do believe he is someone who would leave for 2-3 days unannounced). He always makes sure to give you at least 2 days of pure dedication and affection. He doesn’t want you to feel sad and neglected after all. (Don’t worry he spends more time with you but he makes sure to spend two days with you)

8) You both are each other’s emotional support. He cheers you up while you motivate him to do and try new things.

9) He is friends with a dragon! So expect to spend time with Dvalin. He also can create big wind currents. Meaning that you guys tend to have many gliding dates!! Also nice picnics are expected under Windrise or anywhere to be exact.

10) He is still an Archon and he still the archon of freedom. So for your relationship to survive it is crucial to have trust, respect, and freedom. Meaning that you can’t try to limit him or hold him back. Your guys relationship is literally the saying, “If you love them let them go and if they love you they will come back.”

LOOK! It’s not my fault he is so pretty! ♥️♥️

On the side: HE IS SOOOO PRETTY!!!!!!! WHAT AM I DOING WRONG *ugly sobbing* ‍♀️

Venti as a type of boyfriend.

(Honestly him with anybody he considers close and that he can take advantage of. Not in an evil way).

“Dam that pretty bard and his pretty privilege!”, Venti’s s/o paying Venti’s tab of the day.

━━ VALENTINE’S 2022 EVENT SPECIAL

the first thing he heard when he opened his eyes was your soft, little snores that automatically drew a drowsy smile on his face. you were still wearing his shirt, a faded red one that had his high school’s mascot printed in front. the fabric didn’t swallow you whole like the shirts in your rom-com movies do but that was fine. his heart held a lot of affection for the sentimental things in his life and he was more than willing to share every single one of the things that made him kaedehara kazuha with the person who stole every bit of his poetry. it didn’t take long for him to pull you close, absentmindedly snuggling into the crook of your neck as he relished in the gentle thrumming of his heart. with legs tangled under the quilted blanket you gave him last christmas, kazuha decided that he could afford to stay in bed for five minutes longer if it meant having you for himself for just as long.

the five minutes that passed felt like an eternity that ended too soon— yes, that was the perfect way to describe it. an eternity of finer details spun and observed meticulously by awestruck ruby eyes. kazuha was eloquent but not necessarily verbose. besides, he smiles to himself as he ran a hand through his free-flowing locks. what else was there to say when you were doing all the explanation by just looking wonderfully majestic first thing in the morning? true art, the ones that could only be crafted by the genius of nature itself, have no need for unnecessary adjectives uttered by someone clumsy and blind at the sight of love incarnate.

“you woke up early,” he felt you shuffle before slumping over his back, movements exposing your left leg to the cold morning breeze. you honestly didn’t care. it wasn’t that cold but kazuha wordlessly adjusted the blanket for you anyway, “worrywart.”

kazuha shook his head amusedly, “just looking out for you.”

you eyed his pleased expression before fiddling with the hair tie on your wrist — his hair tie. a little something that you wouldn’t be having on your person if it weren’t for this man who enjoyed your touch unabashedly. adjusting your position, you carefully detangled the knots in his hair: a routine you have come to know every time you stayed the night over his place.

“what should we have for breakfast?”

you hummed, “you’re cooking?”

“it’s valentine’s day,” kazuha smiles and though you weren’t facing him, you knew his silken voice by heart that you could carve the image in your mind with as much ease as you have when you breathe, “a special day for a special someone entails a special treatment, yes?”

“don’t try too hard to be perfect. any more and you’ll make me order a ring.”

“feeling bold, aren’t we?”

you only laugh in reply, patting his head twice to tell him that you’re done styling his hair. deciding that your mischief will temporarily end there, you don’t comment as your keen eyes caught kazuha slightly tilting his head to lean into your touch. a cat. he reminds you too much of a cat who enjoys lounging around in the corners where the sun’s glow hits just right.

“the rain has stopped… i guess we’re not having breakfast together after all,” you said after a few moments worth of silence. the reason for your stay was the torrential downpour that happened late last night. as brave as you are to attempt to fluster your composed lover, you weren’t quite brave enough to walk home in poor visibility. too busy recounting what has transpired, you missed the frown that uncharacteristically painted kazuha’s face darker.

“…so it seems.”

you blink, turning your gaze to kazuha to ask him a silent question but he only kissed the inside of your wrist with a coy smile.

indifference has never been your forte and it didn’t help that kaedehara kazuha, as a result of the countless hours he has devoted in honor of preserving your image in his memory, knew every single one of your quirks. as you cleared your throat, kazuha could only smile in content as you didn’t attempt to pull your hand away from his hold. a cat. sometimes, you reminded kazuha of a cat who jumps away from the slightest show of affection. other times, however, you stuck close like you had all the intention of becoming his second skin. you’d deny this if he told you but he knew better. his mother had once tucked a stray strand of his hair while softly saying that nature favored him for his free soul and it appears that this time, he owes them another prayer of gratitude. the rain has once again proven that it was his friend — a friend that had kindly bought him more time with a small bonus of having you crave the warmth that emanated from his palms.

“shall we go out of bed?”

you groan but made no further move to protest. it wasn’t as if you had any intention of running away from your responsibilities. while it was valentine’s day, it was also a monday, the most dreadful of all workdays, and you had no intention of losing your good mood to the morning traffic.

“i’ll at least help you with breakfast—” kazuha shakes his head before guiding you to the bathroom, spare towel and clothes in hand. you didn’t even notice that he had everything ready until he was telling you that he had everything covered, “you sure?”

“you’ll be late.”

“meanie.”

kazuha made no move as he watched you pad to the bathroom. he ought to tell you off for walking barefoot when the mahogany flooring was cold but there was something strange in his lungs. it squeezed — lightly, not enough to be painful but enough to be felt — and oddly, it was a feeling he could easily mark as delightful. it was befuddling to face an emotion he has yet to recognize but it was fine. if it was a feeling he gained from being around you, he’s bound to put a name to it eventually. after all, he was planning to stick by your side for a long, long time.

content with his realization, kazuha tugged at his sweater’s sleeves. he could hear the sound of the shower being turned on, followed by the rhythmic pattering of water to the tiled floor. once, he had no use for a heater, having an inexplicable tolerance for the freezing water in his apartment but then you came along and he found himself scurrying to accommodate you. the shrill scream you let out as you showered for the first time in his place was quite unforgettable and even more so was your blatant avoidance of his gaze. embarrassment on you was a hue that he found endearing but he’d never place his satisfaction over your comfort. lying wasn’t his forte, preferring very technical wording instead but somehow, it was easy to smile apologetically and tell you that he was having trouble with his morning showers as well.

not soon after, you gifted him one of the many piles of blankets he had stored in the spare room. “stay warm. i’m not very good at looking after sick people,” you said and he wondered how he could be stuck freezing in the cold when your eyes were the warmest of all. sincere and caring. you didn’t tell him that you won’t look after him when he’s all gross and vulnerable — just that you weren’t the best at it. kazuha had shuddered then, finding the intensity of your gaze to be the right amount of heat that he was craving for all this time.

it was no wonder that kazuha has earned a lot of mocking contempt from his friends for always thinking and speaking of you fondly but how could he ever stop when you’re effortlessly adorable as you wore his go-to scarf with a frustrated pout. you didn’t even have to do anything. all you had to do was stand still and breathe and he would be all over your feet, singing you praises and thanking you repeatedly for sharing your tender heart with him.

the bedroom door suddenly opened and he realized that he was too burrowed in his thoughts to realize that you have long left the shower. you were fiddling with his scarf. a pleased smirk came to his face as he realized that a part of him was going to be with you all day long and that it should be enough to silently cue your coworkers to stay on their lanes. how strange… it was unlike him to be so territorial. perhaps the valentine mood wasn’t all lie after all. shaking such nasty thoughts, he met you in the middle, gingerly unraveling the scarf to rewrap it around you but without the unsightly creases your earlier rush caused.

“you don’t need to leave so soon,” he smiles tenderly as he gently tugs at your arm to pull you back to his warmth, “my place is yours, after all.”

you knew what he was referencing. fragments of you could be found everywhere you look in his cozy apartment and it was as if cupid shot yet another barrage of arrows to your heart as you fall crazy in love all over again. you like this. you truly, with all of that word’s sincerity, like this. you like how you seamlessly mesh into his life— how natural your toothbrush sits next to his fancy bamboo one. you love how his body was always the right degree of warm during rainy days. you love him. you love him so much that it’s a wonder that this world could contain it.

“very sneaky,” you drawl, making no effort to hide your entertainment, “i never thought you’d be the one to influence me to lag behind.”

“there is no need to make me out to be a villain, dove. i am always by your side, wishing for you to receive only the best.”

you pause before nodding, burrowing your face into the scarf in the process. it smelled like him — like his apartment; like home and you wonder just when you began recognizing this small but cozy place to be the one place you’ll come back to after a day’s worth of work. you don’t question the why because you knew the first time you set your foot inside this place — even when back then the wallpapers were old and dirty and he refused to pay for ‘unnecessary’ appliances — that it was only a matter of time before you were dancing in the kitchen as you cooked dinner with a skilled artist as your sous chef. it was never a how or why, only a when and even that didn’t matter all too much because it would come to be eventually.

domesticity. the mere sound of the word had your blood rushing in excitement for what was in store for the future and without a doubt, you knew that you and kazuha had both silently agreed that you liked how that word sounded with the affectionate articulation of the other.

“i have to go now. you’ve held me back long enough, mister.”

kazuha easily dodged the soft flick you were supposed to give him. realizing that you weren’t going to call in sick after all, he sighed before handing you a carefully crafted bento. noticing your confused stare, he shrugged nonchalantly, “it’s unhealthy to skip breakfast and someone has to make sure that you’re not doing so just because you are running late.”

“holy crap,” you gape at him, heart going mad crazy underneath all your layers, “marry me. like right now.”

kazuha rose a brow before laughing, placing one final kiss on your cheek before shooing you off gently. your words had affected him a little too well and the lung-squeezing feeling from before returned ten-fold. whatever it was, it was for sure your doing and he had not the heart to complain. similarly, he has yet to find the heart to speak of the box hidden under his sock drawer ever since a year ago. no matter… it will come to be eventually — naturally and all in the due course of time that looked upon you fondly.

[Masterlist]

Alatus was once told a story by his Master. A sinner who falls into hell is rewarded for his only good deed, choosing not to kill a spider. As his reward, a thread is lowered down for him to climb out of Hell. In the end, the sinner remains in Hell because he kicks aside others and the thread breaks. Alatus doesn’t remember why his Master told him this story but he still empathizes with the sinner. He would have done the same or asked for this ‘saviour’ to extend their hand down instead. That way he could pull them down.

“Xiao? Are you okay?”

He slowly opens his jade eyes to see you hunch over, peering down above him, eyebrows furrowed together in concern as you reach down and softly tap his temple. He allows you to take a moment to do whatever you want with his face before he reaches up to grasp at your wrist gently, holding back on his want to rub circles into your skin. His reminiscing can wait for now.

“What is it?” he asks curtly, sitting up and resting his elbow on his raised knee. You pout at his curt tone but shrug it off as you take a seat next to him and lean your shoulder against his. You dig into your bag and pull out slips of commission papers and hand it over to him to read through what needed to be done today. A few Hilichurl camps needed to be taken care of, sabotaging a slime balloon, all tasks that seem mundane to someone who fought in a war. As he’s preoccupied, you take a moment to look at Xiao’s face. He’s just the slightest bit unnerved whenever you do this because you always seem to know what’s bothering someone.

“Were you dreaming of her again?” you ask quietly. The silence is a good enough answer but you nod understandingly. You never knew his Master personally but you did fight a long strenuous battle against her. From one look you could tell she was a manipulative and cruel woman. While it may not be very kind to say, you were glad that with her passing, Xiao would be free from her physically. But mentally…there were still some things to work out. But Xiao was a very reclusive person, especially with his emotions, so pushing him any further would only make him irritated and closed off.

“Venti and Zhongli are joining our party for a bit if that’s alright. They’ll help out a lot with our commissions and travelling. I like Liyue a lot but climbing mountains stresses my shoulders out,” you laugh as you change the subject to something less depressing. Standing up as you dust your clothes off before turning to Xiao and holding your hand out for him to take. He stares at it hard for a few moments before huffing and reaching over to clasp your hands together.

It has been so frustratingly peaceful since the war ended. He’s not used to it and he can still feel the lick of cutting winds and the heavy pressure of rocks against his body when he sees the bard and funeral parlor consultant just on the horizon. If it were up to him, he wouldn’t play nice with these two Archons but they’re important to you so he bites his tongue until he tastes blood. He knows the Archons do the same. As soon as the two of them spot you both, Venti is already rushing and tackling you to the ground in his excitement.

“Traveler! I haven’t seen you in ages. You need to come and visit Mondstadt more,” Venti cried into your shoulder as you awkwardly patted him on his back. Always with the dramatics but you cared about Venti all the same. Xiao scoffed before flicking his jade eyes to meet gold as Zhongli stared down at him cautiously. Since the war ended, everyone seemed to have this warped idea that Alatus had some vendetta against the Gods and Celestia but he was fighting because he was told to.

“Xiao. It’s good to see you again,” Zhongli said to him. Xiao just nodded in acknowledgement. Even with this new mortal form, Morax never bothered to change his eyes. His gaze alone held the weight of the mountains he had thrown. If Xiao hadn’t been under one of them before, he might have crumbled under the pressure.

“Alright alright, Venti. I promise I’ll drop by sometime this month but we still have commissions to do!” you laugh as you haul the bard onto his feet and swat his cape down from the speckles of dirt. He grins cheekily at you, linking pinkies with you to seal your promise, before suddenly lighting up as if he just remembered something.

“Actually! Before we start anything, I need to speak to Mr. Zhongli and Xiao. Super important archon things, you know?” Venti nodded to himself as the two mentioned people stared at him with varying levels of confusion. But Venti just waved their worries off and linked his arms with both men as he dragged them off to a more secluded corner with a surprising amount of strength, “We’ll be right back!”

“Do what you need to do but don’t take too long,” you called after the trio as you trailed off to the side, messing with your bag of commission papers and gear. Xiao hated that. He knows that these two Archons are your…friends.. but shouldn’t you be a bit more cautious? Just because they have mortal forms doesn’t make them human, it doesn’t make him human either.

“Hey, there’s no need to look so scary. There really is something important I wanted to talk to the two of you about,” Venti speaks up as soon as you’re out of earshot. It still gives Xiao whiplash whenever he drops the persona and switches back to Barbatos. “Since Morax is the only Archon I trust with this information and, while I don’t trust you one bit, you’re the one that’s with her all the time you should also know. She’s ascending to Celestia.”

Barbatos gauges both of their reactions. Morax seems visibly surprised, his eyes slightly widened a fraction, while Xiao has no idea what that means. His Master didn’t exactly give him a history lesson on Celestia or Archons, just pointed to who was his enemy and dealt punishments when he failed.

“And what the hell does that mean?” Xiao asks as he crosses his arms. Venti appears for a second as the bard pouts before continuing.

“It’s like I said. A mortal who performs great, heroic feats can ascend to Celestia and achieve godhood. Where they will watch over their people from above. I’ve only seen this once before so it took me a while to recognize the signs. But 1000 years ago, I helped a woman named Vennessa with her ascension and with the traveler’s recent actions with winning the war. Well, you don’t need me to explain the rest,” Barbatos finishes. Zhongli simply hums as he cups his chin and absorbs what’s just been heard. He doesn’t seem troubled by the news at all.

“Have you told her about this?” Zhongli questions as he looks towards the direction that you left. Venti shakes his head. “That would mean that she would vanish from this world.“

“I know she loves this world. Whether she wishes to ascend or not isn’t my choice but I want her to continue her travels with that beloved smile on her face. But if she does choose to ascend, she will need our help,” Venti stares at the two of them in a mix of pride, sadness, and determination. “Can I count on you two for your help?”

It’s a complete white noise in Xiao’s ears as his surroundings fade out. He thinks he can see Zhongli nod to Venti wishes, the ever calm smile on his face to match the cheery grin on Venti’s. What, now you want to become a God? Leave this world behind? That’s not funny. You made him give up everything. While in your eyes, your blinded hero syndrome, you think you’ve liberated him from a soulless conquest but he still has nothing. You still took everything away from him and your only compensation was to have him by your side until he left himself. But now you want to leave without a warning? That’s not fair. You don’t get to take back what you owe. He won’t allow you to leave him behind.

“Did something happen? Did Venti say something unnecessary again?” you ask out of the blue. Zhongli and Venti had returned to their respective regions once your commissions were all finished. Since the three of them disappeared to talk Archon business, Xiao had seemed even more tense and aloof than usual. As if he was out of it? You knew that everyone was still suspicious of Xiao and they were angsty to leave you alone with him, but you knew Xiao would never do anything to hurt you. When he doesn’t answer, you slowly reach over and you subtly nudge his head up onto your lap and look at him curiously. Before reaching down and cupping his cheek. He leans into your touch before turning his face into your palm and leaving a soft kiss. It makes you giggle at the ticklish feeling as you look at him so softly. It annoys him.

“You were never connected to the war and yet you fought against us anyways. Even when I killed so many people, why did you choose to spare me?” he asked as you blinked at him before giving it some serious thought. He went on a rampage and almost destroyed the world. It was fun. He doesn’t have any regrets at all because he hated humanity. His own Master was human after all. But then you appeared and stopped him. A random outsider that wanted to play the hero. He thought it was cute. Perhaps he had underestimated the lengths someone would go to to save the world they loved but when he fell defeated at your feet. He said that this wouldn’t change a single thing. He would still scorn humanity and what they did to him. He was so sure he would die there but you chose to extend your hand down to him instead despite what your companions felt. Even when the war ended and he had nowhere else to go, you offered him to travel with you. Nothing changed about his mentality, every person that chose to talk to him was quickly scared away with piercing eyes. Every conversation started would end in silence. Every touch would be met by the tip of his spear. But you would link your hands together with his and smile brightly, and he would always end up forgetting his trauma for a moment. You’ve… become precious to him.

“I love this world and everyone in it. You are a part of that world even if you tried to destroy it. It…didn’t seem fair to leave you behind when you’ve suffered just as much,” you finish but it only seemed to spark a wave of deep anger inside of Xiao. He quickly lurched up, almost knocking your forehead with his, before grabbing the scruff of your shirt collar and yanking you forward.

“Cut it out with that "love of everything” crap. It’s revolting. So you’re saying the people I killed weren’t worth avenging? Do you think I’m so weak that I need protection? It’s one thing to try and please everyone but at least have some awareness would you?“ he snarled as he pushed you to the ground. He knew he was being harsh on you and you had every right to walk out and abandon him but you didn’t. Of course, you wouldn’t. You needed him as much as he needed you. You just reached over and tenderly reached your hand and placed it next to his. Damn it, why is he always the one stuck worrying about you.

"Then you want to protect me, right? Then don’t break your promise. You left me alive which means you have a duty to live for me,” he takes your hand in his and squeezes hard. Digging his nails into your own until crescents appear and tiny specks of blood appear so you know he’s serious. He doesn’t care how you interpret his words, just so long as you never leave him.

“Don’t die on me, Hero.”

It’s been a few hours since the conversation so it’s pitch black outside but Xiao was never one to sleep. Even if he could, his mind is too loud to fall asleep too. He’s startled when you melt against him fully asleep. Honey smooth as you curl up to his warmth and cling to him like moss to a rock. He can feel his cheeks start to flush as his heart begins to pound against his chest. He can’t breathe as his world is filtered through each beat that drums against his ears. He’s not sure if there’s actually something wrong with him or if it’s just been a while since someone got so close and his instincts haven’t left.

He’s just realized it. He’s feeling pain. The feeling in his chest is black but he can’t claw it away. It’s strange in a way that he can’t explain it, that he’s never felt before, that he’s never felt the need to experience. His life had been warped by battle and a constant push to submit to his Master. They are all things he knows but the gentle words that come from your mouth, the bright eyes that hold the world, the horrible ice-hot feeling inside of him is so foreign yet too easy. He doesn’t like it.

It makes him feel…clean in a way. Enlightened perhaps? His Master is long gone and it’s like you said. He’s free now. Free to make his own decisions and live his life how he wants to. He carefully turns over so as to not startle you away as he really looks at you. You look so peaceful in his arms, eyelids shut without worry, face slack without nightmares, breathing so softly against him. If you weren’t so close to him that he couldn’t feel the rise of your chest, he wonders if he would think you were dead. He stares at the lock of hair swaying back and forth with each breath like a starved man. The strange feeling doesn’t stop. He hates it. It’s everything that goes against him and what he knows and everything he should want. He’s supposed to be the villain in your story, he should kill you right now-

“Xiao…” he hears you mumble beside him as you lean further into his arm. Damn it. How low is he going to go?

“What are you thinking about now? You just need to think about me. Don’t think about anything else…but me” Xiao sighs before he wraps his arms around you and pulls you into him until you’re snug against his chest. Close to him, where he can touch you, where you belong. Not with Morax or Barbatos. Not with humans but beside him. He closes his eyes and nuzzles his head into your hair and he stares off into the distance. The feeling never leaves him for the remainder of the night.

“Ah! There you are. I was running around crazy looking for you,” he turns his hair to see your flushed form pulling yourself up onto the mountain cliff, “When I woke up I couldn’t find you anywhere! You gave me a scare there.”

He hates you. He hates you.

Words of his previous master ring in his ears, almost as if her very soul is wrapping around him as she whispers in his ear how weak he is. Ones with power that refuse to take what they want because they rather live in the comfort of nothing. Be greedier, take what belongs to you.

“Xiao?” you say as his piercing eyes stare directly through you. His Master always told him that she loved him. Even if he hated her he still clung to that false love. Of being wanted. Isn’t love for a single person vile? Would feeling such emotions for one person instead of “everyone” bring you down to reality? It’s not fair that you’ve crawled your way into his heart while you walk along in bliss. Now that he thinks about it. It was so simple. He just needs to monopolize your thoughts and love. This time it won’t be as friends.

“I love you.”

He’ll pull you down to where he is. You extended your hand down to hell so it’s your fault. He’ll drag you down kicking and screaming if he has to. You left him alive. You have to live for him and by him. He’s not letting go.

• Xingqiu and Chongyun are v protective over y/n!! Xingqiu being more vocal about it.
• If any problems for y/n arise Xingqiu and Hu Tao usually handle the admin/public side of it, while Chongyun and Benny are support hamsters 
• This was especially the case for the breakup too! (Nosy people at uni lol)
• At the get together the gang watched a bunch of cheesy romcoms <33 it was a good time

Ayaka would be the best sister to someone who wears a hijab/headscarf. Super patient and kind and gets cutely excited to help do all sorts of intricate headscarf styles!!

Big brother Ayato who gets comfortable, beautiful prints of fabric too

“Please just stay with me, I don’t think I can be alone tonight”

A/N:Thank you so much to Quill for hosting this and giving me the perfect opportunity to write for my baby . I have fangirled about her blog on here for a bit but please go check out their main page!! They have an ongoing streamer Xiao SMAU (Cynosure) which I am a huge fan of. Congrats on 2.5, much love!!!

Sometimes, General Gorou feels a slight pressure looming above him. Though, it’s only something incredibly small. 

“No- no please! Wake up… wake up!”

If reducing it as minuscule means he doesn’t have to look up at the precarious weight threatening to crush him, then he will keep looking ahead. Look at what’s in front of him. There’s no room for error- no room for the past.

“Please… please… I’ll do anything…”

General Gorou of the Watatsumi resistance- the reliable commander. The intelligent leader. The fierceless fighter.

But if he was so unafraid as he claims to be, why do the lifeless forms of his allies on the battlefield haunt him during sleepless nights?

“Please stay with me… I can’t lose you too!”

Why do his knees crumple when he sees your lifeless form, haphazardly discarded in the rain? 

Isn’t he General Gorou? Isn’t he a fearless freedom fighter? Isn’t he the person who will lead Watatsumi Island to victory?

“Someone- anyone! Help… help! They’re bleeding- someone-”

Don’t tell me General… that you’re afraid?

“Someone check their pulse- someone.. ANYONE!”

Gorou awakes to a throbbing memories, a blur of red, but most importantly, encased in your protective arms. You wipe away the tears threatening to spill- tears he hadn’t even noticed were there.

“Gorou! Shh.. shh…. I got you my love…”

He coughs, expecting blood, only for his throat to come up with a dry, choking sound.

You frown, smoothing his ruffled locks and rubbing comforting circles on his back. 

But for some reason, it wasn’t enough, as he clung to you a like a lost child.

Your lover had been overworking himself for days, planning the reconnaissance mission to retrieve many allies captured under the vision hunt decree. The unknown fate of Kazuha alongside those disappearing under the Shogunate’s elusive hand weighed on his mind heavily.

“Gorou- my love, your throat must be hurting.”

“Let me get you a drink, or some medicine? I’ll be back in just a minu-”

Gorou gazes up at you with weak eyes you can’t say no to. A slight pressure is exerted on your waist, bringing you back into bed.

“Please just stay with me, I don’t think I can be alone tonight.”

Ever selfless, you wonder what he must have saw to request something like that in the first place. Slowly, you climb back into bed with him. He encases you in strong arms, bringing you ever closer to his chest.

“I can tell you had a bad dream. Can’t you tell me what it was about, love?”

He hums slightly, burying his face in your hair.

“It was um… Guuji Yae you see. She refused to give back my dango in the dream… and would not relent taunting me.”

You raise an eyebrow at that, pinching his cheek. Gorou only offers a weak smile, but your heart blooms at the resilient twinkle coming back into his eyes.

“My sweet- I am not one of your soldiers that need placating. You don’t need to be General Gorou around me.”

“WillGorou please tell me what’s going on in that head of his?”

Your lover chuckles, though you notice the tremor faintly present in his hold amidst his strong front.

He opens his mouth, before closing it abruptly. Gorou had always been bad at lying to you.

“I dreamed of you.”

You clutch his hand.

“I dreamed of losing you.”

“I was too late, like I always am.”

Now it’s your turn to feel your vision turn blurry; you look at the man in front of you. The man you love

The hairs on his tail are on edge- some even charred from assumed resistance training. Bruises and broken bones don’t just disappear once you become general.

When he hears the crack in your voice, he sweeps you up into a bone crushing embrace. With a wobbly voice of his own, he speaks in a hushed whisper.

“Please don’t cry. Not because of me.”

“You won’t lose me, Gorou.”

You reply in a vehemently angry tone. Anger at what, you’’re not quite sure.

“You are always enough. And the tides will turn- we won’t become accustomed to loss.”

“You have to believe me, Gorou.”

Eyes wet and shining, he gazes at you like some sort of miracle.

For the first time, Gorou sleeps at peace, as if the restless souls of his past look after him rather than torment him.

It’s still too early to predict who the turn of war will favor. But for now, it was enough to believe in your words.

Diluc as your boyfriend

Summary: What is like having Diluc as your boyfriend (headcannon)

Genre: Fluff

Warning: mentions of pain

Headcannon with music lyrics (the song will be put at the end of the section)

(A/N: this headcannon is actually dedicated to my friend who is in love with this man because today is her birthday.. this is just something came through my mind from me to her, gurl if you’re reading this, I’m sorry if it’s underwhelming.. and yeah.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! UwU)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Music is from –> Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy by Queen

Adventuring with you

(I can dim the lights and sing you songs full of sad things, We can do the tango just for two..)

• Diluc always keep an eye on you when you both out on adventure
• Sometimes he gets over protective, he’s just scared when you’re hurt
• Always prepare everything before you two go out, like snacks, extra clothing, first aid kit and etc
• When dealing enemies on the way, he always be prepared when you need backup
• If it’s an abyss mage or a lawachurl… well, he tries his best to protect you so you didn’t die
• But at the end, he will finish it off.. and after that he will tend your wounds
• If you couldn’t walk because of your injuries, he’ll carry you back to Dawn Winery
• Probably beat himself up mentally inside
• Diluc won’t let you go adventuring for a while before your wounds are healed

“I already ask the adventures guild to give you some time off. You need to heal properly in order to go out adventuring.”

When your both are in public

(I can serenade and gently play on your heart strings, Be your Valentino just for you)

• Diluc loves to ask you go on a walk with him in the city
• He’s not that touchy when he’s in public
• But once every now and then he’ll hold your hand or hold your sides when your talking to another man especially Kaeya
• Well, things like these rarely happen when you both are together, because everyone knows not to mess with Diluc
• When you find something that you would like to buy, he’ll buy it for you
• This man literally loves spoiling you omg, he tries to make you happy alright :3
• Diluc rarely brings you to the tavern, well.. DRUNKARDS
• He just hates it when some drunkard tries to flirt or get your attention
• But when you wanted to come, he’ll make sure you’ll sit not too far for him to look after

“ Are you sure you wanna go to the tavern? I mean.. I would love to take you there, but aren’t you bothered by the drunkards? If you really wanna go, be careful alright.. if someone disturbs you, just come to me..”

When he gets clingy

(Ooh, love, ooh, loverboy, What’re you doin’ tonight, hey, boy?)

• He’s usually clingy when you gone for days or he’s just tired from work
• When you finished taking a shower and put on your clothes, he’ll immediately pull you into his arms
• You’re not gonna escape from his arms until next morning tho..
• When he isn’t sleepy, he’ll just let you talk about your day or anything while he puts his head on your neck so he can feel your warmth
• Hearing your voice is really calms him down
• Or you two just sat there until you both fell asleep
• If you did manage to escape, he’ll whine at you like a baby
• Diluc will chase you around the room ngl, he’s a giant baby when he’s clingy :/
• Or if he’s too tired, he’ll crossed his arms and make a pouty face at you :^
• If you’re going to the kitchen to make food, he’ll be right behind you and hug you on the hips and put his chin on your shoulder
• Overall when he’s in this state, he really just wanted to hold you in his arms

“Hey where are you going? Let me hug you for a whileee.. pleaseeee? It’s not that long.. I promisee..”

Places that he will take you on a date

(Set my alarm, turn on my charm, That’s because I’m a good old-fashioned loverboy)

• Diluc usually follows you, where ever and whenever you want
• But if he’s the one who pick the place, he’ll treat you on a fancy restaurant
• It depends on his mood
• When he wants to treat you like a real gentleman or feel like he wants to spoil you when there’s a special occasion, he’ll choose to go on a fancy restaurant
• Just eating a delightful meal and have a conversation with you and some classical music in the background.. he felt really happy
• But if he just wants to enjoys time with you alone, he’ll bring you stargazing with him at Starsnatch Cliff or at Stormbearer Mountains
• You both will watch the sea from above or lay on the grass watch the stars and talk with each other for HOURS

“Darling, do you wanna go out tonight? I don’t really have work to do, so maybe we could go and spend some time together, your choice.. Where do you wanna go?”

Taking care of you when you’re sick

(Ooh, let me feel your heartbeat (Grow faster, faster). Ooh, ooh, can you feel my love heat?)

• Hear me out, Diluc will not leave your side if it’s not necessary
• He always feed you while your holding the bowl to warm up your hands
• Diluc wouldn’t let you leave your bed other than going to the bathroom
• Diluc even forbids you to work even if it just reading some written commisions
• He just wants you to relax and rest as much as you could get
• When you feel really cold, he will hug you, not too tightly until you couldn’t breathe
• Seems because he holds a pyro vision, his body felt really warm
• If you couldn’t fall asleep or bored, he’ll put on a movie for you or just talk with you about anything that came across his mind
• He’s really soft when you’re sick especially when you didn’t have enough energy to do anything

“Try to get some rest alright? You don’t need to get out of bed if it’s not necessary, and try not to think anything about work okay? If you need anything, I’ll be right here”

(A/N: the reason why I use this song it’s because it makes me think of Diluc for some reason and when I wrote this, I put the song on repeat :v, I hope you enjoy it.. have a great day)
