- S/O followed the trail back to Mondstadt, eager to tell Jean about their travels the past few weeks, but that enthusiasm was put out quickly.
- They could see the city in sight, but smoke was coming from within the walls. Too much smoke.
- With their eyes widening every second, they bolted to the gates to find out what was happening.
- Meanwhile, Jean sheathed her rapier and quickly examined the situation.
- The knights were able to hold back the Hilichurl attack at the back gate to the city finally securing it. She turned her attention to the main gate.
- Other knights were evacuating the citizens, but there were too many to handle on their own.
- She clenched her teeth as she ran to the gates.
- Now, S/O had entered the city through the back gates and saw what was going on.
(Knight) "Hey, what are you doing, get with the others to safety!"
(Knight 2) "The city is under attack, remain calm and-"
- S/O saw Jean fighting an entire group by herself, not realizing that there was another group approaching from behind.
- They weren't a fighter, but the Knights were too busy helping the other citizens evacuate.
- S/O sprinted towards Jean, shouting her name to make her look behind.
- Jean used her vision to blow away the group in front of her and saw S/O, seeing the group trying to ambush her in time.
- S/O was about to breathe a sigh of relief before they felt their entire body jolt violently, all of their senses frozen in place.
- Everything in front of Jean slowed down to a crawl. S/O had gotten her attention, as well as the enemy.
- An Abyss Mage had fired an ice spike that went straight through S/O, S/O dropping on their knees and falling over.
- Jean angrily tore her way through the ambushing group, with Knights pincering the Abyss Mage.
- Before the Abyss Mage could teleport, she used her vision again to blow them into the wall, letting the other Knights finish it off.
- Quickly checking her surroundings, there was no other group in the city.
- The knights rushed over in front of Jean, securing the area.
(Knight) "Acting Grand Master! It's S/O!"
(Jean) "S/O!"
(S/O) "J-Je...an-"
(Jean) "Don't speak! You're going to be fine, just-"
(Knight) "Acting Grand Master, it's not looking good..."
- The knight was doing his best to heal S/O, but they were losing too much blood.
- And Jean knew that.
(S/O) "Thank...Barbatos you're safe..."
(Jean) "I am thanks to you, but...!-"
(S/O) "Don't...blame yourself...please."
- S/O's hand weakly grabbed Jean's. She could feel herself shaking while S/O's grip grew more loose by the second.
(S/O) "If you're safe then...that's all that matters...Everyone still...n-needs........-"
- S/O stopped moving. Jean couldn't bring herself to look at their face, the eyes losing their light as they stared blankly past her.
- Jean's body dropped down onto S/O's hand. She wanted to do nothing but sob. To scream out and weep rivers for S/O.
- But, S/O was right.
- Mondstadt still needed her.
- She got back up and turned away from S/O's body.
(Jean) "Secure the area and tend to the injured. I want no other casualties."
- The knight got up and closed S/O's eyes for her. It was the least he could do, not being able to imagine what she was feeling right now.
(Knight) "At once."
- ...
- ...
- Jean stood in front of S/O's grave, silently staring at it.
- It had been a week since the invasion of Mondstadt, and she had buried S/O the day after.
- Though it still felt like Jean just watched it happen.
- S/O died because of her. Because she didn't think anyone would try to attack from behind. Something she should have seen coming.
- And if it weren't for them, she'd be in that grave right now.
- She slowly put the dandelions near her mouth and gently blew it.
- The seeds flew off, slowly and across S/O's grave. Most of it landed on the dirt in front of the tombstone.
- She looked up to the sky, feeling tears form up again. Jean didn't bother trying to hide it this time.
- The skies were a bright blue without a single cloud, some of the seeds flying off out of sight.
(Jean) "We have been blessed with another beautiful day, thanks to you...But...You are not here to see it..."
(Barbara's voice) "Big sis?"
- Jean instinctively had her arms reach for her face, about to wipe away the tears, but she felt arms wrap around her.
(Barbara) "Please, don't...Let it all out."
- Jean had remained composed and stone faced throughout the week, trying to get everything back under control.
- Despite the concerns for her personal well-being, she pushed it off for the sake of Mondstadt.
- But now...
- She slumped down and fell onto her knees, her head burying into Barbara's shoulder.
(Barbara) "I'm so sorry, Jean..."
- Barbara didn't say anything else as Jean sobbed into her shoulder.
- No matter how much time passed, Jean would never forgive herself for S/O's death.
*lipbites into ur inbox* i, j, r, s and v for my love hu tao ? [if thats too many feel free to cut down !! but also im definitely coming back to ask more hu tao stuff >:)]
LETTERS - i, j, r, s, v !! • 200 event !!
all the time. sometimes it’s to get herself out of trouble, sometimes it’s when she’s feeling particularly sappy, sometimes it’s when she’s sure she might die. “but i looove youuuu, don’t you love me too? come on you buzzkill, it’s not that dangerous!”
first says it in one of her quiet moments. you two are just lounging, your head in her lap as she overlooks your half-asleep form. you know she’s lost in thought by the way her eyes aren’t focused on anything, she’s just staring. “i think i love you.”
her painted nails lightly trace the sides of your face as you cast your eyes upwards to see her expression. you’re met with a closed eye laugh and a tap on the nose as she tries to take the focus off herself. “ah, don’t look at me like that! at the very least say it back, look at me dazed afterwards...”
she’s scary when she needs to be, and that is especially so when she’s really jealous. if someone she doesn’t vibe with approaches, she’s attempting to use her charm off the bat. sweet-talking them, not-so-subtly intertwining your fingers together while she animates with his hands, anything she can think of. now, if they don’t take the hint, there’s almost a visual code switch within her.
“hm, you wouldn’t happen to know all that much about the afterlife, would you?” she chimes, looming around the person with a sinister smile parading on her lips. “i know all about it. say, i wouldn’t mind...” she activates her element, a small ghostly flame emitting from her palm. “showing you sometime.”
she giggles behind her hand at the way they scurry off.
any time she realizes that you don’t chastise her for her interests. her smile widens every time she remembers that you don’t think she’s weird or creepy for her career or her approach. she’s found someone who understands, or at the very least doesn’t judge, and she loves every bit of it.
now, she doesn’t even value her own safety to the highest regard, so she’s not going to reprimand you if you just so happen to do anything dangerous. the thrill comes first, so if you’re looking to jump off the top of wuwang hill all the way down into the oceanid’s lair, hell, she’s probably jumping first.
she definitely values your sense of humor. she wants someone who will joke with her, someone who’ll laugh with instead of at her. her sense of humor can be dark, so if yours is as well, she’s got a better match than originally anticipated! “you...you think i’m funny?” hu tao slowly has an incredibly lovesick grin enveloping her face as she watches you laugh. “most people — aiya, nevermind that! all that matters is that my little butterfly is laughing, yeah?”
*lipbites right back* anon your brain is so big hu tao is so <3333
marzipan or maybe dacquoise with ningguang, I can't pick which one maybe pick the one you feel more comfortable writing
thank youu and congratulations on 500 followers ✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧
Thank you!!
Dacquoise: “May I have this dance?”
-------
It was a simple question. Not one that they were expecting, however, it made their heart soar. On cloud nine, they accepted the hand she held out to them, a smile ever-present on their face.
All it took was a small, "May I have this dance,"
Butterflies fluttered eagerly in their stomach as their fingers intertwined with theit partner's as she led them in a waltz. There was no music. Just the two lovers, twirling within the serenity of the Jade Chamber embracing one another as though their lives depended on it.
Their movements were fluid, however, surprised coursed through them. They were shocked they hadn't stepped on her toes. She chuckled at their demeanour in fondness.
"Nervous? This isn't the first time that we've danced like this." A smile graced her face as she admired them underneath the dim light of her office.
"I know but I don't want to step on you." They looked down at their feet, watching their steps to make sure they didn't dirty her heels
"And if you did?"
"I'd feel bad."
She laughed quietly, pulling them just a touch closer, "How cute."
They flushed, briefly looking up at her. Her serene expression made them flush, but they maintained eye contact. She was radiant. Everything about her was beautiful.
They pulled her hand towards their lips before placing a kiss on her knuckles, "I love you, you know?"
"And I, you."
They smiled at her, nervousness finally dissipating. No longer did they worry about making a misstep, and instead focused on their lover's face. They leaned against her, their head on her shoulder as she continued to lead.
Her heartbeat eased them further, lulling them further into security, as the waltz devolved into gentle swaying This moment was perfect.

Tag List; @yoimimi @duhsies @dilucs-claymore @nagatorou
inazuma version here
includes: diluc, amber, albedo, jean
diluc was not a night owl. it wasn’t his thing, he liked to be fully rested; especially with you by his side. but the night before you left to sumeru for business reasons, you were up with diluc until the sun rose just talking.
“i have to leave in a few hours,” you chuckle, tracing the rays of sun that illuminated diluc’s figure in the bed next to you.
he softly groans and rolls over to look out the window across the room. “oh… i didn’t realize the sun had come up. how rude of me to keep you up all night before such an important day…”
“no, i… i enjoyed it. even though i think you dozed off a few times.”
diluc saw you off and had people accompany you to sumeru, and was left with a strange, empty feeling in his chest. it was heavy, overwhelming.
how dramatic. he thinks. they’re only going to be gone a few months.
months. at first, it didn’t feel too horribly long to diluc. but with you gone, time seemed to slow down, going at a snail’s pace. on week 2 without you, he could’ve sworn it had been a month. it was hard to focus on his work. all he wanted to do was write to you and see how you were doing.
and when the day of your scheduled return came, diluc couldn’t shake the nervous feeling he felt. it felt as if he was going to see you for the first time. he was so excited he could barely contain it.
“well, master diluc looks awfully happy today.” you say, walking to where he stands outside the winery.
diluc nearly chokes on his grape juice, barely catching the glass in time when he hears your voice. “i wasn’t expecting to see you just yet,” he says, coughing to clear his voice. “welcome back, my love.”
if you ever need a helping hand, a shoulder to cry on, or just someone to listen to you rant, amber was the one who was there for you. she was one of the most important people in your life, and it made leaving mondstadt so much harder. you originally stopped in the nation just to rest for a bit before continuing your journey to liyue, but after meeting amber, you kept delaying your travels. the days leading up to your departure were melancholy. amber was the same giggly and bubbly girl you knew, but you always saw how her smile faded when she remembered that you’d be leaving soon.
“i promise, i’ll be back someday. and i’ll never leave again.”
your words stayed in amber’s head. she heard them every day, every time she thought of you. she prayed every night that you’d arrive back the next morning, but it felt as if you never would. and her prayers eventually stopped.
just for you to show back up the next morning.
as she was hanging up flyers around the town, she heard someone call out for her.
“hm? do you need me for something? i can help you right after i — (y/n)?” after realizing it was you, she threw your arms around you, nearly throwing you off balance. “you’re back? already?”
“i couldn’t stand to be away a second longer than i had to,” you admit. “things just weren’t the same without you…”
albedo hadn’t realized how important you were in his life until you left. he felt empty. he’d turn to talk to you just to realize that you were still gone more times than he’d like to admit. the bed he sleeps in feels so empty without you, and he feels as if it’s much too big for one person.
being able to write to you was nice, but it wasn’t enough. he so badly wanted to be with you again, hold you, hear your voice.
but that was selfish. he knew that all too well, so he often told himself to be patient. you’d be back soon, and if you ever had to leave again, albedo would surely be by your side.
the shock on his face when he saw you in his lab when he returned from a sudden, and quite frankly, pointless meeting with the knights was priceless. it made sense now why he was called down to the city so suddenly.
wordlessly, albedo walks to where you stand and takes
you into his arms, sighing. “i didn’t know you’d be arriving today… i would’ve made plans if i did. i would have made your favorite food and we—“
“shh,” you shush him. “just having you here is more than enough for me.”
despite writing to and receiving letters from you, jean couldn’t seem to fill the hole in her heart that you took when you left. she felt so selfish wishing that you’d come back when you were off doing bigger and better things that would help you achieve your goals.
and somehow, the people of mondstadt had figured out that you had returned to the nation before jean did. and as soon as she learned that, she made a b-line straight to where she knew she’d find you.
windrise, where the wind was the most refreshing. the place where you had spent many afternoons with jean after being able to drag her out of her office. she made her way to where you stood by the statue of the seven.
“(y/n)…” she says softly. “why didn’t you tell me you were coming back so soon?”
you grin. “i wanted it to be a surprise.”
she chuckles, pushing a loose strand of blonde hair behind her ear. her cheeks are flushed as she’s overcome with emotion. “i missed you.” is all she can say as she wraps her arms around you, hoping she’ll never have to let you go again.
- Jean is a little taken back, but she quickly responds with a smile and a blush.
- Her hand goes over theirs and says:
(Jean) "I love you too, S/O."
- Her smile stays there for the rest of their day together.
- A sentence like that is not to be taken lightly with Jean, so she knows S/O is being genuine, and that couldn't make her happier.
- Her cold demeanor is shattered when she hears that sentence.
- Eula is not used to affection given to her by S/O to begin with. Considering her family life and how she's treated, this is genuinely the first time she's ever had someone say this to her.
- She hesitates for a moment before turning to S/O, though she is unable to look them in the eye.
(Eula) "I...love you, as well."
- She turns away again, red slowly creeping onto her face.
(Eula) "Or do I? This could be an elaborate..." sigh "...You...You mean that right?"
(Fischl) "W-Where did that come from?!"
- She is a stuttering mess, barely able to compose herself.
(Fischl) "A-Ah, who wouldn't? But feel lucky, S/O. For your love is requited and-"
(Oz) "Surely it would not kill you to be serious for S/O, even for a second? Besides, how many novels have you read where you vocalized you wanted-"
(Fischl) "DON'T YOU FINISH THAT! U-Um..."
(S/O) "Amy?"
- She has to look away and is barely heard.
(Fischl) "...L-Love you too...and please don't call me that..."
(Noelle) "Come again? I'm sorry but it sounded like you said 'I love you'."
(S/O) "That's because I did."
- She pauses what she's doing and takes a moment to process it.
(Noelle) "O-Oh, I apologize! I love you too!"
- The smile on her face is infectious, she is panicking a little but hearing it makes her day.
- She is unused to matters of the heart, but she is filled with energy hearing it.
(Beidou) "Hah, where'd that come from now?"
- She laughs and moves closer to S/O, an arm around them.
- Beidou puts her head on their shoulder and closes her eye.
(Beidou) "Love you too."
- She honestly couldn't be happier, the only thing missing is a drink in both of their hands.
(Lisa) "Oh? Sorry, couldn't catch that. Could you say it again?"
- With a smirk and her hand wrapped around one ear, it was obvious she heard it.
(S/O) "I love you, Lisa."
(Lisa) "Ah, now I heard it."
- She chuckles and puts down her tea to walk over to S/O.
- Lisa gives them a kiss on the cheek and hugs them.
(Lisa) "Love you too, dear."
- Although she was teasing, hearing that has made her week.
- Despite her casual attitude, those three words carry a lot of weight to them, and hearing it from S/O means she's as happy as she can be.

a continuation / part 2 to this post
includes: zhongli, sara, xiao, and thoma
after ending things with you, he found himself thinking about you more often. his chest was heavy with feelings of regret and guilt. he thinks about the pained smile you gave him more than he’d like to admit. after weeks of purposely avoiding you, he finally decided to approach you if he happened to see you, and he did. he greeted you with the same gentle smile that was bittersweet now.
“it’s been quite some time since we’ve spoken. how have you been?”
you return his smile. “i’ve been fine.”
and then you tell him that you’re too busy to stop and chat, quickly leaving him behind in the middle of the city. zhongli decides that it would be better if he no longer tried to speak to you.
“my darling, it’s been nearly a month since we last spoke. i miss you dearly. i wish i could undo the things i’ve done. i wish i could go back in time and do what felt right to me. you would still have you vision, you would still be mine. i turned you into only but a shell of what you used to be, and for that… i’m so sorry. although, i am glad you only see me as one of the shogun’s minions and not as someone who betrayed you in the worst way. i hope that someday you’ll remember the time we spent together and find the strength to forgive me. yours truly, sara.”
sara quickly crumples up the paper in front of her, fresh ink staining her fingers. the same fingers that snatched your vision away from you, the same fingers that left sara feeling so guilty it made her nauseous every time she saw them. no matter how hard she scrubbed them, the guilt never washed away. angrily, she throws the paper across the room, adding onto the pile of unsent letters to you.
upon returning to wangshu inn after some time away, xiao could immediately sense that something was wrong. the air was tense, and verr goldet immediately motioned the adeptus towards her once he entered. xiao can’t pinpoint the exact emotion he feels when he sees you in bed, bruises and scratches on your face.
“a traveler helped bring them here after finding them injured… told me they whispered your name before passing out.” verr goldet had said.
xiao winces. “why?” he asks. “why didn’t you call out my name? i told you i’d protect you.” xiao says.
you sigh, barely opening your eyes to look at him. the light in the room made your head hurt, but you wanted to see xiao’s face. “i didn’t want to bother you.”
xiao can’t speak. you don’t want him to. he realizes what he did left a longer lasting impression on you than he anticipated.
thoma didn’t understand why he always got so upset seeing you with them. he knew he couldn’t be with you, not with how busy he is. his work has to be his first priority, so why didn’t he feel happy that you had found someone else? that was what he thought he wanted. however, he started seeing you less and less around inazuma. he can’t help but be worried, so he takes it upon himself to ask ayaka if she knew where you had gone.
“huh? they didn’t tell you?”
thoma’s heart sinks. ayaka tells him that you had decided to leave inazuma with your s/o entirely. and you hadn’t said goodbye to him. but he knows he can’t be mad. he brought this on himself, right?
“ah, that’s right. it must’ve… slipped my mind, heh…”
DON'T YOU-
-ME, ANON
- Eula doesn't seem like the type to be the more gentle one in a relationship, especially if her S/O is shyer than others.
- ...Well, she still isn't, but man does she try.
- When they first met, Eula assumes S/O is terrified of her because she's a descendant of the Lawrence clan.
(Eula) "...You're staring."
(S/O) "...A-Am I? Sorry I didn't-"
(Eula) "Oh, I understand. Truly. After all, the Lawrence clan is still out for vengeance. It makes sense that you don't think you're safe around me."
- In reality, S/O was half-terrified, half in awe of how pretty of a woman Eula was. S/O wasn't sure what to say since said pretty woman was carrying a greatsword bigger than them. If anything, that was the part that terrified them the most.
- Eula just brushes them off, walking away since she was used to this treatment.
- Then came the next day where S/O specifically sought them out.
(Eula) sigh "Let me guess, my mere presence is something you can't sta-"
(S/O) "N-No! I'd like to apologize to you for yesterday!"
(Eula) "Er...What?"
- Eula then finally noticed S/O's body language. It was obvious they weren't great at talking to others. Thankfully it didn't seem as bad as Sucrose's inability to speak to others, but still.
- This apology didn't seem mocking or they were scared of her "wrath". It was genuine.
- And that was what drew her towards them.
- Eula and S/O spend a lot of time away from the public eye, which suits both of them just fine.
- S/O appears to come out of their shell around her, and only her from what she's seen.
- Although it confuses her how S/O doesn't seem to care about her reputation since they aren't a knight and are subject to all the nasty gossip about her, she couldn't be any happier (on the inside).
- Eula is a bit awkward around S/O however. She doesn't usually try to reserve her manner of speech in front of others due to her past experiences, but with S/O she has to reserve her usual "vengeance" speak.
- S/O is a far more gentle person, especially if it's only the two of them in a room, so she doesn't want to hurt them with what she says, even though she doesn't mean it.
- Eula defaults to trying to deflect any type of compliment or insult off whenever people speak to her, so whenever S/O says something nice about her, she has to remain silent for a few moments before saying thank you in a hushed manner.
- It's still a bit awkward for them despite the fact they're used to it.
- Most of their time together is spent in a comfortable silence, just enjoying each other's company without anyone to judge them.
I have a request if its not too hard 👉👈
You're in a group conversation, and they're included (Childe, Albedo, and Kaeya for the boys, and Mona, Eula, and Amber for the girls if possible) and you refer to them as your husband/wife (you're not married to them.. yet 👀)
Thank you have a shrektacular day 🥰
A/N: Hello Anon!! thank you for the shrektacular wishes. i will remember them until my brain runs out of storage space and uploads all my memories to the cloud & deletes them!!! :_D
I actually had to do a little reading up on Mona's personality and take a look at her voicelines for this one. I never realized how much i do not know about her. Thank you for requesting her along with the others! it was very refreshing.
Gender neutral reader! Hope you don't mind, anon :D
Perhaps you're introducing him to your friends.
He hardly notices!
It may be embarrassing for some, but certainly not for him.
He throws an arm around your shoulder or your waist and pulls you towards him.
Perhaps he'll trip over a word or two once he realizes.
Maybe the tips of his ears will flush.
Maybe it's his whole face.
But he plays it off as best he can!
Goes along with whatever you're saying, referring to you as his lovely wife just to get back at you.
Keep playing dirty and he'll be the one making you flustered.
Once you've gotten somewhere private, he'll keep bugging you about it.
"Did you mean it? Did you mean it?"
He's so down to marry you.
Don't be surprised if he wakes you up with breakfast a noctilucous jade ring!
Maybe you're with Timeus and Sucrose and introducing him to some other alchemist that's in town.
Probably ignores it just to bug you.
"Huh? What'd you say?"
Pretends he's too busy focusing on whatever he's working on at the moment to notice what you said.
But his cheeks are dusted with pink.
Of which he meticulously makes sure to keep out of your view until the heat in his face goes away.
A little while later after he's calmed down he'll come up to you.
"Want to repeat what you said earlier?" He asks, a knowing smile on his face.
Oh, you're in trouble now.
You've released smug Albedo.
The one fueled by the knowledge that your love and attention are all his.
When you get embarrassed, he'll bend down/pull you down to him and give you a quick kiss.
This backfired on you quickly.
Ahh. There are some new recruits at the Knights of Fevonious.
You have to introduce him to them.
Ohoho? He raises a brow when you refer to him as your husband.
He makes no effort to hide his affections for you in front of the new recruits.
He might grab your hand possessively in his cold one.
Or maybe he'll snake an arm around your waist.
He doesn't say it, but he's thinking it.
To the guys and girls eyeing you, he's saying "back off, they're mine."
You should've known that even references to marriage wouldn't be enough to fluster this man.
Once the recruits have left, he lets go of you.
"Why don't we make your little daydream into a reality soon?" He asks.
He kisses your hand and then leaves.
You're dumbfounded. How will you ever win against this guy, you think.
Maybe you called her it as a joke, rather than an attempt to fluster her.
She gets flustered anyways.
You two were looking through books in the Knights of Fevonious library together.
But now she's a blushing mess.
She buries her face in a book to hide her embarrassment. It doesn't work well.
"Preposterous! There is no ring on my finger. We aren't even engaged." She shouts.
She has a knack for inserting her logic into conversations at very inappropriate times.
Like now, when you're trying to flirt with her.
"I can change that~," You say, continuing to tease her.
She slams the book shut and goes to leave the library.
"Lunch break, Y/N. I am getting quite tired of this stuffy library."
But you know she just wants to go somewhere she can blame the heat on her reddened cheeks.
Her face stays red for the rest of the day because she keeps thinking about marrying you.
"Moving a little fast are we? We are simply in affectionate relations." She says,
The conversation flow stops.
Everyone looks at her weirdly.
You laugh awkwardly and bend down/pull her down to whisper into her ear.
"So you would like to make me your wife is what you're saying?" She says out loud.
You facepalm, but agree.
She grabs you by both of your hands and looks you sternly in the eyes.
"You are sure that you want to marry me, Y/N?"
You agree eagerly.
"Proposal accepted, dear Y/N." She says, a small smile appearing on her face.
You go out drinking with whoever you guys were conversing with to celebrate.
Turns out calling her your wife wasn't too much of a long shot, since you're engaged now.
You kiss her and wonder why you didn't do that sooner.
She gets excited!
She'd be too embarrassed/thinks it's improper to bring up you have called her your wife while others are around, so she waits until you're alone.
"Y/N, back there, you called me your wife." She says, her cheeks tinted slightly pink.
"You haven't asked me properly yet, just know that I'd accept a proposal like that at any time." She says.
She places her hands on your upper arms and she looks up/down at you.
She's basically tearing up she's so happy.
She loves you so much she gives you a big huge hug.
She tells you later that she wouldn't mind not getting married either.
Just being referred to as your wife would make her the happiest girl in the world.
You assure her that you have plans.
You want to make her the happiest girl in the world, she deserves it.
Kaeya definitely sneaks up on you two and asks what you two lovebirds are talking about.
Both of you get embarrassed and run away!

hi hi ! first i just want to say congrats on 100 followers ! second, may i request 💕,💓, and 👩❤️💋👩 with keqing for the event? keqing brain rot is strong rn, ty in advance !
IM HAPPY I CAN FINALLY WRITE 4 HER HAAHAHAHA ENJOY!
💕- how they show affection
In essence, less talk, more action.
Keqing is not the type who would always say things like “I love you”, “Honey” or whatever cutesy stuff that most couples do, but she would definitely say it quite often at home though. Definitely not outside, she has a reputation to maintain.
But her love language is via touch. It’s not as straightforward, but it's definitely what she prefers to do to show her affections for you.Whether it be snuggling up into your arms after a long day at work, gentle pecks on the cheek in public if she’s feeling bold, or holding hands/ linking pinkies at home or public, she loves having some form of contact with you if she can.
She especially likes being the small spoon, or when you gently rub her hands or back. Those times are when she’ll feel like she can truly relax.
She’ll also be the type to remember what you say, and even keep a secret journal on your likes and dislikes and whatever things you want. NOT YANDERE THOUGH, it's just that she cares enough that she would want to remember you, after all, these little things are the reason why she falls for you even more everyday.
Would spoil you with cash, but knows better than to overspend on you. She would also definitely make time for you. You are her darling, and she wishes to give you the best she can give, despite her schedule. Unless it’s super urgent, even then she would apologize and sometimes bring flowers for you do tell her it's alright please.
💓- When they first know about their feelings about you
HMMM
Surprisingly enough, it’s during a time when she was shopping with you. That day, she was really stressed, and you had immediately offered to go shopping with her, as a form of stress relief.
She was so enraged that day that she seemed more… irritable to say the least. She was single-handedly providing for 2% of Liyue’s economy that day. You had to drag her to Heyu Tea House to cool herself down and not splurge on anything unnecessary.
She ended up letting out all her anger about Ningguang the Lucent Crescent, her frustrations at work, but you, who has a crush on her, just listened to her the whole time.
She felt better instantly, but she felt so bad about wasting your time. Then you had to say something along the lines of
“It’s okay, I’m never wasting my time when I’m around you.”
She was flustered that day, and as she reflected on how you always listened to her views on Rex Lapis and how you accepted it all, always brought her Golden Shrimp Balls for dinner, and even waiting for her when she’s working overtime sometimes, something blooms in her heart. Was it affection? Or just gratitude? Or love even?
She couldn't arrive at a decision for a while.
The trigger was when she saw you talking to Ningguang, looking flustered, while Ningguang had a cocky look (because she was teasing you about your crush on Keqing)
She instantly recognised the feeling that she had at that point: Jealousy, after months of research on the strange feelings she kept experiencing with increasing intensity around you each passing day.
That’s when she knew, she’s in love with you.
👩❤️💋👩- how do they like their kisses?
Outside in public, she doesn't really want to kiss you on the lips, it’s something she deems intimate (plus must keep up reputation) but even then, she’ll kiss you on the cheeks if you really want one, or if she’s feeling particularly affectionate that day. If you’re shorter than her she’ll give you either forehead or cheek kisses
At home, kisses can be very long and very gentle. You ground her, and you helped her realise that some things have to be taken slowly to enjoy it, and such kisses are one of them.
She likes the feeling, and more often than not, quick pecks can escalate to such sensual kisses. She also likes receiving kisses on the cheeks and foreheads, both publicly and privately.
She’s easily overwhelmed by heavy affection, so gentle, slightly featherlight kisses are enough for her. Give her a really deep kiss on occasion though, and you would end up with either a heavily blushing keqing, or things might escalate… into something steamier...
Hello! Congratulations on 700 followers! :) 🎉🎉 For the event, may I request scenario 7 with Yoimiya?
— ⚡️ CATCHING UP
includes — yoimiya
prompts — scenario #7
a hug after not seeing the other for a long time
warnings — n/a
pronouns — they/them
inazuma was under lock and key for the most part — many of the occupants of the region trying desperately to get out, with only few actually succeeding. there was no one trying to get into inazuma... or at least none that you knew of.
however, when you fled before things turned sour, and left behind someone who meant the world to you — even the stupidest and down right dangerous ideas seemed like nothing.
the group that had snuck you through the copious amount of guards that lined the shores were nothing short of kind — pointing you in the direction of the firework shop, and wishing you luck and safe travels.
it had been years since you had last seen yoimiya — the girl who’s smile shone so bright that it reminded you of the most vibrant explosions of colours that she loved to make and share with others, and the girl who didn’t have a single bad or mean bone in her body. yoimiya was a loving soul who you couldn’t wait to wrap in your arms again.
the firework shop hadn’t been hard to pinpoint once you had walked into the town — with racks of the colourful wrapped explosions sitting on the porch, the sounds of bounce-like steps prancing around on the wood, and the sight of the bright hair you remembered all too well.
“hey! do you think i can have a discount on your biggest firework?” the smile was large on your face without her even noticing you at first — the feeling of happiness at just the presence of her doing the job for you.
yoimiya turned in confusion — a couple of fireworks held in her hands. as soon as she recognized you however mcyt the fireworks were long forgotten on the rack, and he body was rushing towards your own.
to the people of the street, it almost looked as if the girl had attacked you — with her body knocking into your own harshly, sending your body back and plummeting towards the cobblestone ground, but it was anything but malicious intent.
“oh my archons — y/n!” you could hear the smile in her tone. “i haven’t seen you in like- ever!” she giggled — her face lifting from your shoulder and looking down upon you with a grin.
smiles were shared for a few more moments, before yoimiya inevitably swooped back down and pulled you in for another hug. after going for years without any physical contact, let alone verbal, yoimiya was cashing in on all the time the two of you had missed together.
“well, i’m here now, right?” people passing by paid no mind to the scene anymore — simply chuckling before walking past as if they had seen nothing.
“yes you are — and you can be sure that you’re not leaving anytime soon,” yoimiya lifted herself onto her feet — her hand held down to you to help you up. “we’ve got a lot of catching up to do, don’t we?”
“just a bit,” yoimiya didn’t waste time before she sprung into action — telling you about everything that had happened in the past few months, filling you in on what’s been going on in her own life, and asking an endless amount of questions about how you had been.
i picked my ass up and told myself to write and get over my problems, so have at it
