{❀..•}_ Why Not Me?- Hu Tao

It’s been years since then.

You were just innocent children, waddling around and giggling at the simplest of things. You could remember your mother calling for you, telling you to be careful before you mindlessly stumbled towards the streets of Liyue Harbor. The world outside of the Harbor was enticing, so you walked for hours, only stopping until you reached the dark corners of Wuwang hill.

You could remember the girl you found in the woods, curled up against a tree, holding a bleeding knee. The girl with brunette hair and eyes that glimmered like rubies, hyperventilating as she chuckled to mask the tears welling up in her eyes. As time passed, she stopped laughing. Her voice wavered as the darkness of the forest consumed her whole, her cries for help only bearing witness to the trees.

However, that was before you found her. As soon as you caught sight of another person on the hill, you ran towards them. When you saw that the person was hurt, you burst into tears and fell to their feet. You hadn’t seen blood before, and you additionally had the tendency to cry when other people cried.

You grabbed the girl’s hand, trying to babble out an “Are you okay?” to her. The girl in front of you wiped her own tears and looked at you with concern and confusion. She crawled forward to pat your head, her tiny fingers fluffing your hair around.

“H-Hey, don’t cry…” She mumbled, trying to be comforting. She wiped off her knee and raised it up to your face, wincing. “Look! I’m all okay now, see?”

You frantically shook your head, and started taking off one of your socks to stop the bleeding. You clumsily tied it around her leg, which still had blood running from the wound. It was a tiny scrape, but to a toddler, it practically looked like her leg had been chopped off. You sat down beside her and leaned against a tree.

A few minutes passed, and you had fully calmed down. You sniffled and wiped your eyes every now and then, but you were no longer crying, which the mystery girl considered a win. Your new acquaintance wrapped an arm around your shoulders, and started rubbing your back in a comforting manner. After a few minutes, you finally spoke up.

“Sorry…” you sighed. The brunette next to you perked up at your apology, energetically scrambling to reassure you.

“Huh? Don’t apologize, I’m all better now thanks to you!” She grinned at you, shifting to sit in criss cross position, the blood from her cut mixing with dirt as she did so. She started rocking from side to side, her hair swinging in sync with her movements. “Lighten up! What’s your name?”

You raised your head, a small smile spreading over your lips. “(Y/n). What’s yours?” Your eyes followed her form as she clapped in excitement. She was sent into a fit of quiet giggles as she continued to sway. You wondered why she was so happy, you only asked what her name was. “I’m Hu Tao, Its nice to meet you!”

After a while, you started laughing with her, despite your confusion. Being with another person felt… nice. You had been sheltered by your mother every since you had been born. Staying inside Liyue Harbor’s walls didn’t giving you much time to adjust to the world, especially since you were just a toddler. That was part of why you cried when you saw Hu Tao’s scrape, and that was why you were here in the first place.

As night started falling, mist spread throughout every nook of Wuwang Hill. The shadows cast from the trees melted into the night sky, the darkness forcing you to cling to your new friends. You and Hu Tao started walking, trying to find your way out of the forest by using seelies and butterflies. It was dawn by the time you had gotten home, and everyone had been worried sick about you.

So, you bid Hu Tao farewell, and promised to meet her in the forest another day.

It was around 7PM when Hu Tao finally returned to the funeral parlor. But something felt… different. Tonight, she didn’t feel the weight of death on her shoulders.

No, tonight, she felt happy.

——————————————————————————-

It’s been twelve years since you first met Hu Tao.

Your friendship with the Overseer brought good to your life, and continues to make you happy every day. She’s been there through everything, not just to watch- but also to support you in everything that you do. This was something that no one was willing to do for you before.

She knew nearly everything about you- your favorite food, you favorite books, all of the standard stuff that a close friend would know. However, Hu Tao also knew about your past, and some of the deepest feelings that managed to work their way into your stomach. Sometimes, you would show up at her door in tears, asking for advice, and she would happily comply.

Almost too happily.

Hu Tao would get butterflies in her stomach whenever your gaze met hers, no matter the circumstance. Her hands would sweat, and to say that she would become flustered is an understatement. She would always become red faced if you ever got too close to her- and you, in your ignorance, would think she was sick or something.

She was happy that you relied on her, and she thought that the joy bubbling in her stomach every time you were mentioned was just the feeling of having a real friend. But, after a while, she realized that these weren’t just platonic feelings.

She realized that she was in love with you.

And dear god, she never expected love to hurt so much. All she wanted to do was take you into her arms and kiss you like there was no tomorrow, but she couldn’t risk losing what she had with you. Not now, not ever. So, she vowed that she would never come clean about her feelings unless you asked about them. She wouldn’t stand in your way.

It was only until she heard that you were going on a long mission that she regretted her promise. She didn’t want you to leave, she didn’t know what she would do with herself. You were the very reason she could move forward every day. After all, no one like the poor girl. Not Zhongli, not her own family, not anyone.

Every day you were gone, she waited at her door for you. The hollow feeling in her chest returned, and everyone who knew her had a feeling that something was wrong. Her eyes were dull, and the constant tapping of her foot was a clear sign that she was anxious. No one asked about her though, in fear of becoming her newest obsession.

Hu Tao buried herself in work after three days of your absence. After being yelled at by client and getting ignored by Zhongli, she tried not to cry. But, understandably, she broke halfway through the week. She truly did miss you, she thought as tears streamed down her face in the dead of night.

When you finally returned, you returned with a familiar face.

One she hadn’t seen in very, very long time

His raven hair decorated with glowing turquoise could be recognized by anyone who knew his name. His mask was practically a symbol of justice to the Archons, and his presence had once pestered Hu Tao long before you had left.

Adeptus Xiao.

He was always so cold, so unforgiving. It seemed that she always managed to tick him off just by being around, just like she did to everyone else. Occasionally, he would smirk at her antics, but other than that, he was something akin to a boulder. She didn’t want him to take away her best friend, or even worse- make you boring too.

Her joy was dampened when you said that he would be staying with you for a few days, but most of all, she was confused. A burning feeling settled in her chest as she watched you smile at him like he was the Sun and Stars themselves. Why did he need a place to stay? The Wangshu Inn was quite suitable for travelers and gods alike, so what was the problem?

Unfortunately, Hu Tao’s questions were answered when she caught you doing something that she never thought you would. The Overseer was going about her day as usual, tending to customers and preparing coffins. She was going to find you to ask you about something, when she witnessed you pressing a kiss to the Yaksha’s lips through a crack in the door.

Xiao wrapped a hand around your waist and pulled you in even closer, tilting his head to deepen the affection he was giving. Your palms glided up his neck, finding their way into his hair. You stayed like that for a moment, bodies pressing against each other, warmth emanating from your moving lips. A dark blush coated your lover’s cheeks when you broke away for air.

The image of you might have been hazy, but she knew what was going on now, and she knew what this was leading up to. A pang of jealousy and sadness shot through her stomach, infecting her system until it had reached her heart.

You didn’t want her. You never would.

A few small gasps left Hu Tao’s lips as she turned on her heel and ran away from the scene. The floorboards creaked as she did so, alerting both you and Xiao that someone was there. Both of your heads snapped towards the partially open door. That was the last thing you heard from her for days.

All you got was a mere glimpse of her uniform from behind the door, floating like a butterfly caught in a strong breeze.

It almost felt as if she was drifting away, bit by bit.

——————————————————————————-

Hu Tao returned to you almost a week later.

After she saw you and Xiao, panic set into her soul before she could realize it. She closed the Funeral Parlor until she returned, leaving you in a nervous state of confusion. The only thing you could wonder was, where was she? Was she alright? Why would she ever do this? Not once had she closed the parlor, so why now?

The truth was, your friend was now lost because of you. She though that she had a chance with you, but she had come to realize that that was far from the case. For three days, she had been aimlessly wandering around the dark corners of Wuwang hill, trying to gather her thoughts. But of course, she had no luck. The young Overseer needed advice on how to cope, so she ran to the wisest person she could think of.

Zhongli.

Hu Tao found the Ex-Archon to be irritably smart, making him a good, yet annoying source of help. He had expressed his hatred towards her, claiming that she acted like a child. His attitude always stung a little, but she couldn’t afford to hold grudges right now.

The streets of Liyue were filled with a mix of tourists and locals, the bustling crowds forcing Hu Tao to get through using force. She pushed her way through the ocean of people, the tears that lingered on her cheeks smudging from bumping into the bodies of others.

When she finally reached Zhongli’s door, it was almost sunset. She rapped on his door, and waited for a response. A sharp click echoed from the other side of the door as it swung open, revealing Zhongli, who was looking just as professional as always. He quirked a brow at her appearance and gestured for her to come inside.

He could tell that she had been crying, her puffy eyes and red nose giving him all of the minor details he needed. However, something else was off about her. The light from her eyes was gone- that really told him everything. There was no requirement for questions, he just needed to offer any form of comfort, since her previous source was the very thing that had her caused to seem so… dejected. Zhongli walked over to a kettle situated in his kitchen, and blew out the fire warming the water inside of it.

“It’s something to do with (Y/n), right?” Zhongli asked, pity lining his tone. The woman in front of him nodded sadly as tears welled up in her eyes. He sighed and patted her on the back. ‘You truly did have full control over this poor soul, didn’t you?’ He thought as he poured the boiling water into a cup. The problem was, you didn’t know of the power you held, which could possibly lead to the Overseer’s downfall. “Please, come sit down. Would you like some tea?”

“No, that’s okay.” Hu Tao replied, voice so quiet Zhongli could hardly hear it. “Thank you for the offer, though.”

The Archon sat across from her, holding a steaming cup of tea, his amber eyes boring into his guest’s soul. A shiver ran up Hu Tao’s spine as she soaked up his intense gaze, the despair she harbored just minutes ago morphing into pure nerves. She chuckled nervously and wiped her eyes.

“(Y/n) is in love with Xiao, and… I’m more than certain that he loves them in return.” Zhongli choked on his tea at her words, eyes as wide as saucers. He hurriedly set his teacup down and gently patted himself on the chest to regain his bearings. The infamous Yaksha… was in love? Was that even possible?

Confusion and disbelief were glazed over Zhongli’s features as he coughed into his fist. “I… I see.” He answered, “I suppose miracles do happen, even if they are in the, uh- strangest of circumstances.”

“Zhongli, you don’t understand, I love (Y/n). I love them too- I’ve loved them for longer than Xiao has.” Hu Tao cried, more tears accumulating under her irises. Tiny sobs left her throat as she ranted. “I hate having to watch the person I love the most get taken by some else, It’s not fair!”

An agitated sigh vibrated through the Archon’s chest at her words. How young and naive she was. A part of Zhongli understood how she felt, and another resented her for crying over something that he had been through millions of times. But, in reality, he had a secret soft spot for the young Heiress.

“Love isn’t fair. It never was.” And in the end, that side always managed to win him over, “The best thing you can do for yourself is move on.” because no one should have to go through what he did. He was alone when he lost his friends, and this child shouldn’t have to live through that too, even if she was a bother sometimes.

The girl’s breath hitched. Move on? How could she ever move on when you had captured her heart and marked it as your own? Anger started rising up Hu Tao’s neck as he spoke. She opened her mouth, ready to retaliate- but she was cut off by another statement shook her to the core.

“(Y/n)’s feelings won’t change, you know.”

He was right.

She knew he was.

No matter how much she wanted you to love her, you were incapable of doing so.

But why couldn’t you?

“But it isn’t fair to make them worry about you by running away. Go back to the Funeral Parlor, and patch things up.”

Heavy silence filled the air. The atmosphere was intense as the crushing realization hit Hu Tao- the realization that she had been selfish by running. She had caused you more trouble than she had meant to. A few minutes passed like this- the Geo Archon watching as a lovesick girl silently have an entire existential crisis inside the walls of her own mind.

Abruptly, she stood up.

The life had returned to her face again, and a determined look shone in her eyes. She was ready to come home. She couldn’t hold you down anymore. She would go back to you and apologize, because promised she would never, ever hurt you. Hu Tao ran out of Zhongli’s apartment, yelling to him about how grateful she was for his help.

It was nightfall when she had arrived at your house, exactly four days after she had left. She placed her hands on her knees and she panted into the cold, damp air. Soon enough, she felt gentle arms looping around her body. It was you.

A smile bloomed on her face as she hugged you back. “I’m sorry.” She whispered as you cried into her shoulder. Butterflies bloomed in her stomach when you did so, a faint blush coating her ears and cheeks. You bombarded her with questions of concern when you led her inside, Hu Tao joyfully answering each one of them. But as soon as she saw Xiao emerge from your room, she felt sick.

The butterflies that had been fluttering in her stomach were now dead.

——————————————————————————-

Today was your wedding day.

Today was the day that Xiao would promise his soul to to you for eternity.

Nerves and love were mixing in your stomach as you got ready. Your hands were sweating, and it felt as though electricity was spreading throughout your chest. You had envisioned yourself walking down the isle many times before, but you’d never expected it to actually happen. Especially not with someone as amazing as Xiao.

The wedding was being held at the Wangshu Inn, the very place where you and Xiao had met. It wasn’t a big reception, neither of you were up for that- but a few close friends had been invited to come and celebrate with you. It was only a few minutes before you had to come out, and the last checks of your outfit were being done.

Hu Tao stood behind you, trying to style your hair. You looked so beautiful in your wedding attire- hell, you were practically glowing. A constant ache had settled in Hu Tao’s stomach, and ever so often she would start to feel nauseous because of it. It hurt, knowing that you would never be hers. It hurt, seeing you look at someone else with such love. But she swore, years ago, that she wouldn’t get involved.

She knew you were happy, and that’s all that mattered to her.

She entangled her fingers in your hair and closed her eyes. A giggle rose from her throat to try and mask the fear that coursed through her body. It was just like you were kids again- it was just like the day you met. Hu Tao wondered if you remembered that day. She wouldn’t blame you if you didn’t, it had been two decades since then.

She should have told you. She should have taken the chance to tell you she loved you, instead of digging her own grave. Images of what could have been flashed before her eyes, and the hollow feeling in her chest had returned.

Her hands shook slightly, alerting you of the expression on her face. She grinned as big, glistening tears rolled down her cheeks. Small hiccups emerged from her lips, chest heaving with despair. She felt as if she was grieving for no reason, and she hated that she was burdening you with her issues on the most important day of your life.

You looked up at her, guilt clouding your eyes. Gently, you stood up and pulled her into your arms.

“Hey, hey… what’s wrong?” You whispered.

“N-Nothing, really, I’m just happy for you!” Choked laughs were scattered throughout her words as she nuzzled her face into your neck. “My best friend is getting married, of course I would cry.”

It was meant to seem like a lighthearted comment- a mere joke for you to laugh at, but there was a melancholic undertone to her voice, unlike the usual bubbly one she had. You quirked your head at her voice and placed a hand on her shoulder. You stared at your friend, the hues of your eyes being reflected in the hers.

“Nothing will change Hu Tao, I promise. You’ll always be my best friend.”

A friend. That’s all she was to you.

Hu Tao nodded and pulled away from you, wiping her eyes one last time. She brushed herself off before patting you on the back and ushering you to the door. The sounds of clapping could be heard as Verr Goldet finished up her speech. “Well, it’s time.” She sighed, “Now go out there, and give them a wedding they’ll never forget!”

The exchange that happened between her and Zhongli replayed in her head.

Time seemed to slow down as you gave her a final ‘thank you’, before walking down the aisle and leaving her side forever. Flowers clouded Hu Tao’s vision when she went around the seating arrangements to take her place up front as your Maid of Honor.

One last time, she looked at you, eyes filled with the disgusting feeling of love she had felt for so long. Taking a deep breath, she realized that Zhongli was right. She needed to move on. But she couldn’t, no matter how many times she tried.

Even as you both grew old together, the memory of the day she met you still lingers in her mind, reminding her that you gave your life away to someone that wasn’t her.

May I ask a "💓" for Jean, Lisa and Keqing🥺

i got this in ebg and im finally happy that i can write keqing

BUT BECAUSE NEXT REQUEST IS 3 EMOJIS FOR HER, WITH 1 OF THEM BEING THIS, IM NOT INCLUDING HER HERE

anyways do enjoy!

May I Ask A "💓" For Jean, Lisa And Keqing🥺

💓-She first realises it on a hot summer night, where she was still pulling another all-nighter.

This time though, she had you, a fellow Knight, working with her to finish her duties for the day.

Of course, there were some documents that only Jean could access, so you were doing the other tasks that didn’t necessarily need Jean only. (a/n Margaret get a better grip on your cat)

You had just finished your last non- acting grandmaster- related outside duties of finding Margaret’s cat, but as you were feeling exhausted, you decided to set a timer of 45 minutes before waking up and helping Jean.

Jean stepped into her office after getting more coffee, only to return to you resting on her couch, sitting upright.

“y/n?” No response, only your gentle breathing could be heard.

Jean went back to her table, and continued doing her work, but she could not focus, and ended up staring at you, thinking about how kind you were, for helping her, how cute your sleeping face looked, and how she wanted to kiss you…

She instantly blushed and went back to work, but her mind was running on how her thoughts were like the protagonist's when they meet their love interest.

That’s when she knew she had feelings for you.

May I Ask A "💓" For Jean, Lisa And Keqing🥺

💓-Lisa is sharp, she is able to tell quickly that she has such feelings for you.

We all know Lisa is a very flirty person, and as a result probably has many admirers who are interested in her mainly due to her figure.

You were different. Yes, you were also heavily affected by her flirting and all, but not once, have you ever hit on you, or like tried to vie for her attention in an overbearing manner.

Furthermore, you actually love to discuss with Lisa about various topics across the entire Teyvat, so intellectually Lisa is attracted to you already.

It’s when she realises how open and free that she can be around that she realises that she has fallen for you.

She was reflecting on your time together that day, thinking about how you were so different from all the various suitors she has entertained over the years. You didn’t try to wow her with gifts, but gave her something even more important: your time, and your complete attention. And whenever around you, she didn’t have to feel like she was flirting with someone, but being able to be at ease.

When she realises that she wants to always feel like this with you and only you, she’ll know that she has feelings for you.

summary: their reactions to you calling them “pretty girl” <3

Calling Them “pretty Girl” | Headcanons

ᥫ᭡ AMBER . . .

eyes wide with a slight blush

she blinks about ten times before she can muster a reply

“…pardon?”

the apples of her cheeks are bright pink when you repeat yourself, and it doesn’t help that you sound even more sure of yourself this time

she fumbles with whatever she’s holding, clearing her throat and gazing to the side with a pout

she’s adorable when she’s flustered

“gah, stop that! you know i can’t think straight when you do that…”

there’s no actual bite behind her words, she loves your petnames!

they just make her mind turn to mush sometimes </3

she puffs and grabs your hand, intertwining your fingers with urgency

a small kiss is placed to your hand, a thank you as well as a reciprocation

ᥫ᭡ SUCROSE . . .

an absolute wreck

“pretty…what?!”

she pushes her glasses up with her knuckle and her brows furrow as her mind deciphers what you’d said

when you repeat yourself she lowers her head, her hands flying to cover her face with a whine

oh dear you’ve broken her

you watch as her face only seems to get redder under the cover of her hands, and you start to feel a bit bad

as you begin to apologize for flustering her too much, you’re taken aback as she suddenly perks up and begins to protest

“nono, you misunderstand! i…”

you smile wide when she moves to wrap her arms around your neck, pulling you into her embrace

her tone is sheepish and you rake your fingers through her hair to coax her embarrassment

“i really like that name…”

you feel her own grin against your shoulder, and you laugh at how she quietly mutters that you’re pretty too <3

ᥫ᭡ HU TAO . . .

the cheekiest about it

“pretty girl? ooh, i like that one!”

her eyes sparkle at your greeting, and off instinct she wiggles her arms around your waist

her smile is too contagious, and you end up as the flustered one while she dotes on you

you hold your breath when her hands travel upwards, eventually landing to delicately cup your face

the rings adorning her fingers are cold against your skin, but as she rubs your cheeks you feel the warmth begin to cascade

“if i get to be pretty girl, don’t you think you deserve a name like that as well?”

the low tone her voice takes is befuddling enough to make you redirect your gaze, focusing on silently steadying your beating heart

one hand moves to tilt your chin, slender fingers igniting your skin with each graze as she advances on your lips

“so cute…”

ᥫ᭡ AYAKA . . .

a more controlled wreck

her small smile grows a bit at your words, as does the newfound blush she’s sporting

she clears her throat as inconspicuously as she can, shaking her head thoroughly once to compose herself

“…hello to you as well, love.”

you poke fun at her, teasing in hopes of a greater reaction

with a bashful sigh, she chuckles, laying her head onto your shoulder and gazing up at you

“i-i’ve just never gotten quite used to your affections. you always find new ways to surprise me.”

her eyes hold warm adoration, the pale blues shimmering in a way that causes you to yearn, yet you’re not exactly sure what for

with a tender disposition, she cranes to glide her hand over your cheek, landing with her fingers ghosting right along your jaw

her words were quick and hushed, but you still managed to hear the “love you” she murmured against your lips before connecting them

ᥫ᭡ BEIDOU . . .

uncharacteristically flustered

she’s not immune to your charm, though she’d usually respond with a quip of her own

her cheeks burn just the slightest as she quirks a questioning brow, positioning her elbow on the couch’s armrest to fully look at you

“pretty girl…? that’s new.”

her hand slowly smooths down her face, in what you assume to be an attempt at reigning the blush

her grin is toothy and proud as she playfully sizes you up, throwing her head back in a giggle when you wink at her

she pulls you on top of her relaxed form, caging you in her muscular arms as you melt into the hug

“hm, i am pretty, aren’t i?”

she leans into you, pressing a soft kiss to your neck

“call me that more often.” is sultrily whispered along the curve of your ear, and she laughs as you huff at her returned nature

Hello! Congratulations On 700 Followers! :) 🎉🎉 For The Event, May I Request Scenario 7 With Yoimiya?

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.

Take your time and rest when you need to <3

heyy so im kinda new to the whole requesting shabang but i wanted to try it out so um can i ask for headcanons for hu tao and xiao with a lover who constantly praises them? i just want to shower these bbys with love

Heyy So Im Kinda New To The Whole Requesting Shabang But I Wanted To Try It Out So Um Can I Ask For Headcanons

S/o who praises Hu tao, Xiao

characters: hu tao, xiao

updates: IVE BEEN SO INACTIVE IM SO SORRY!!!

warnings: none!! flufff

Heyy So Im Kinda New To The Whole Requesting Shabang But I Wanted To Try It Out So Um Can I Ask For Headcanons

Hu tao

she’s obsessed

her mischievous and prankster personality comes to a halt when you praise her

her brain just stops

*trying to process praise*

eventually she becomes more adjusted to your constant praise

and she loves hearing you say all these nice things to her

even though she may be a little hard to get along with

she adores hearing these silly words that makes her face warm up

will definitely praise or tease you back, as a small little revenge

regardless to how nice you are you’re not free from her pranks and scares

though if you tell her how amazing she is at what she does she might freeze up

i feel like praise towards her personality is something she gets a little shy about

hu tao? shy??? but how!?!?!!

a lot of people avoid hu tao because of how she is, and basically her personality right?

to be honest she probably doesn’t care so much

but when you come into the picture and tell her how attractive her personality is and that’s she’s a good person

hu tao is left speechless at your words

don’t worry, she adores it <3

praise + hu tao = pure uncontrollable happiness

it’s so cute pls marry this girl :(

Xiao

🙏… im praying for you

oh this boy

when you two meet and you say something nice towards him, at first he’s like

“tch. Save your meaningless words.”

pls don’t let this get to you

he likes the praise, he doesn’t know how to process it though

keep praising him and he gets confused

at some point you might need to explain what he’s feeling for him!!

it’s a long path because he’s not used to praise or compliments

or anything nice, really

your kind words is a whole other world for him

and he’s grateful once he gets the hang of it

when he gets used to it, he doesn’t reply with anything to your praise

but what i can promise is that he will definitely get flustered ehe

sometimes he’ll stare at you with wide eyes and a huge blush on his face if you say something especially nice

he holds in that giddy feeling of you praising him

but he grows to love the feeling after understanding

he couldn’t ask for a more supportive and kind lover <3

# Paper Hearts | Mona X Reader

➵ warnings: angst, mentions of character death

➵ notes: self-indulgent drabble that has been in my drafts for a while;; I haven't written angst in a while, so I hope it's an enjoyable read!

# Paper Hearts | Mona X Reader

"Being an astrologist such as I, I can see glimpses of the future." With a gentle sigh, Mona traced circular patterns on your palm, humming a familiar tune whenever you wake from your nightmares.

"Really, now?" You asked with intrigue, moving closer to envelop yourself in her warmth and comfort. The vast topic of her abilities was still confusing, for you weren’t blessed with a vision nor a magical ability. Nevertheless, you’ve shown great interest in her works ever since she has decided to teach the basics.

Running your hands through her hair, you’ve always admired how soft it was. “Maybe you can ask the stars how to manage your financial situation.” You teased, nudging her shoulder as Mona feigned an offended gasp.

“Oh hush, you! Astrology shouldn’t be used for minor things like that. Misusing the guidance of the stars can bring great misfortune to its user, and it shouldn’t be taken lightly.” She scolds, then flicking your forehead with her index finger.

“Ouch, that hurts.” You complained, only gaining a giggle as a response.

“I think you deserved it.” Mona teases before running her hands through your hair. It takes a while before she speaks again. "Sometimes, I can see things that'd make you smile, or the numerous ways that can ruin a day, if I truly wished to, of course."

With a yawn, you stretched your arms before slumping over her figure, smiling. "That sounds like a lot of fun." The atmosphere settled into a comfortable silence. Moments such as these were rare since your lover spent most of her time knee-deep in her studies; always searching treatments for ailments and illnesses yet being unable to get the answers that she wanted. You didn’t blame her, though, you know she was only trying her best.

“..Do you see us staying together for a long time, then?”

Mona freezes, turning to look at you as she contemplates the question. She can’t bring herself to answer it, she doesn’t want to destroy that tiny glimmer of hope in you. It was a question she had asked the stars, and time and time again, it had remained unanswered.

She couldn’t.

Instead, Mona interlocked her hands with yours and held tightly, as if she was afraid that you could vanish.

Instead of answering, Mona looked at you with eyes brimming with anguish. Maybe, just maybe, if she doesn't speak of it, then maybe it wouldn't come true. Maybe the universe will be kind enough to spare you from your cruel fate.

It shouldn’t have hurt as much, but it did. You already know what she saw for your future.

“I love you, so much.” She whispered ever so softly, pressing a kiss to your forehead. A promise.

“..I love you too.”

The silence hung heavily in the air, broken only the faint beeping sounds of a heart monitor.

Genshin Impact| Inazuma Women + Cuddling Headcannons

_________________________________________

I did promise soft fluff so I'm finally doing it 😌

It's been a while since I wrote something cute so take this as my apology for making you sad.

I totally didn't forget how to write cute staff and run out of ideas after the second character-

_________________________________________

• Ayaka •

Poor bby is really flustered.

She's new to this whole physical touch thing so she's probably really stiff too.

She does enjoy your cuddling sessions though :)

There's no way she'd ask you to cuddle first ( not in the beginning of your relationship at least ) so you'll have to ask her instead.

She smells like sakura blossoms and jasmine, you can't convince me otherwise.

Doesn't have a preferred position, though she does like it when you play with her hair.

She usually rumbles about her day while you read a book or drink tea.

She also loves to hear you talk while she holds you.

Has 100% fallen asleep during a cuddle session before but is always embarrassed whenever it's brought up.

Thoma uses that on his advantage, that little shit.

You assured her that it's fine because queen deserves some rest.

Her Cryo vision does tend to make things complicated though.

Unless you have a Pyro vision your cuddle sessions will be limited to summer only.

Since Baal is throwing a temper tantrum I'm assuming the weather isn't nice during summer either, poor you.

Unless you want to freeze to death of course :)

Also since she's like rich or something, I'm sure her bed is very comfy, honestly best place to cuddle.

I like to think that she loves cuddling outdoors too.

Maybe under a sakura tree or in a river bank.

I think that your cuddling sessions become her favorite time if the day after a while.

• Yoimiya •

Yoimiya is the total opposite of Ayaka.

She absolutely loves cuddling but she's not sure if you do so she probably wouldn't bring it up first.

After she made sure that you're fine with it she asks you for cuddles three times a day at least.

She smells good but most of the time due to her job you'd have to put up with the smell of gunpowder and such.

Much like Ayaka she doesn't have a preference when it comes to positions.

She just wants to be able to look into your eyes.

You're the one mostly doing the talking surprisingly. She just likes to look at you and admire your features.

If you want to start a conversation she will participate though.

Yoimiya has come up to you a dozen times to ask for cuddles while being dirty because of the inevitable explosions during her work.

You just look at her and sigh softly, tugging her hand and leading her to the bathroom.

You love her but there's no way you'll cuddle with her when she's like that.

Again much like Ayaka her vision will get in the way of your cuddling unless you're a Cryo vision holder.

At least you'll be able to cuddle with her more of often with the excuse of the poor weather.

She loves cuddling you to worm you up especially if you get cold easily

I can imagine you cuddling Yoimiya after a hard day of work, when she's feeling stressed.

She also really likes back rubs while her head is tucked on your neck :)

Cuddles are an absolute must after any of your dates.

She says date that night isn't over without some cudfles first.

• Kokomi •

Pretty fish lady :)

Honestly I think she loves the idea of cuddling but isn't as experienced.

She also probably doesn't have much time for cuddles either.

She's the leader of a resistance after all.

Has no problem with asking for cuddles and is likely the one that brought it up first.

Smells the best out of everyone here in my humble opinion.

Her hair looks really silky and soft as well :)

She doesn't mind the position you guys are in but her favourite place to be is in your arms.

She feels safe and secure, probably the only time in the day when she can relax.

If you place soft kisses on her head, face or neck while holding her she'll ascend to Celestia.

You both talk about various different topics and things. She likes to keep the conversation going, mostly to keep her thoughts in the present, away from the million things she has to do later.

The best thing you can do when you notice that she's feeling down is give her a massage.

Honestly her back must be so stiff after carrying the resistance on her back, so please help her out and you'll get lots of kisses later ;)

I think her Hydro vision is affecting her body temperature too so she's the same as Ayaka unfortunately.

Her fish become a part of your cuddling sessions if you don't mind :)

They're just really cute and Kokomi loves seeing you play with them while she tells you about the plans for the day in the early morning.

• Sara •

Sara is very awkward to say at least.

She's so tense whenever you're cuddling :(

You feel like you're cuddling a log most of the time.

She's probably training or planing strategies for upcoming battles so she won't have much time to cuddle during the day.

Will never ask you for cuddles but will cuddle if you want to.

I don't think Sara smells like anything in particular, probably just the clothing wash that she uses for her uniform, and even that has a very natural scent.

After all the training when she's all sweaty she will refuse to cuddle with you before she's taken a shower.

She likes every position that you like.

No matter what your favorite position is she'll be down for it.

While cuddling, you mostly ask her about different topics, other than her job or the military, in hopes of her relaxing and lowering her guard down for a bit.

She'll ask you about your plans too and she's always excited to hear about your adventures.

Her Electro vision will get in the way if it's really hot, but that almost never happens so you'll be able to cuddle with her during the entirety of the year :)

As time goes on Sara trusts you more and feels herself feel at ease whenever she's around you.

She'll eventually warm up to the idea of cuddling and she secretly loves it.

On some rare occasions she'll release her beautiful Tengu wings and envelope you in a big hug.

Even though it doesn't happen that often it's her favorite thing in the whole world. She feels like she can protect you from all harm when you're in her arms like that

You love it too and you made sure that she knows it.

● Yae ●

Yae loves affection in general so cuddling isn't an exception.

I think that she'd be the only one to leave her work just to cuddle with you.

She's the head priestess so she can ask the shrine maidens to handle her work for a few minutes.

Will absolutely ask for cuddles whenever she needs them and will become all whiny if you don't comply to her needs.

She has lived for many years so she's most likely an experienced cuddler.

Smells like herbs and sakura petals.

Soft fluffy hair go brrr.

She has fox ears ( and a big fluffy tail cuz I said so ) so she's the best to cuddle with.

Her favorite position is laying on your chest with her arms wrapped around your torso.

Pls pet her ears while you're cuddling cuz she loves that.

I feel like when you're cuddling during the day you will most likely have light hearted conversations but when you're cuddling during the night she'll softly sing a song in order to get you to sleep.

You always have a cup of tea before or after your cuddle sessions.

Again her Electro vision won't be a problem especially since it must be especially windy up in the Narukami Shrine.

Imagine Yae feeling so relaxed during your cuddles, half asleep, that she actually purrs.

You'd immediately coo at her and squeeze her closer to your body cuz that was just so adorable.

She'll refuse it ever happened and would be embarrassed for some reason.

Might actually let you cuddle with her while she's on her fox form when she trusts you enough.

● Ei ●

■ SPOILERS FOR INAZUMA 2.1 ARCHON QUESTS AHEAD ■

She likes cuddles but is too shy to ask :(

Many cuddling sessions while she meditates.

Kind of unresponsive when you're cuddling. She just doesn't know how to act or what to do.

Most likely scared that she'll do something wrong.

You'll have to be the one to ask for cuddles at first but give her a while and she'll gain confidence, finally opening up and demanding some cuddles.

She smells like sweets obviously.

I'm not even joking btw

With the sheer amount of candy she must consume every day she started to permanently smell like them too.

Makes cuddling with her even better.

Loves being the little spoon :)

She feels her worries go away when she's in your arms, that's why she needs you to cuddle her whenever she's feeling down.

Dead silent most of the time. If you want to talk she has no problem at all, she can listen to you talk for hours and wants to make sure you know that. She'll just add a few comments here and there.

When she does want to talk it's mostly about things that she likes.

Her gnosis won't affect anything unless she wants it too.

Are you cold? No problem she'll just use the Electro energy in her body to warm you up.

She's absolutely set on cuddling at least once a week.

I'm pretty confident that she'd have a whole cuddling schedule because it is that important to her.

Gets all pouty and moody if you miss a cuddling session for whatever reason.

You'll have to buy tons of sweets to make it up to her.

Hello! If it isn’t too much to ask for, may I request just general Ayaka comforting the reader hcs? :’)) I haven’t been feeling the best lately but your writing always brightens my mood!!

Hello! If It Isn’t Too Much To Ask For, May I Request Just General Ayaka Comforting The Reader Hcs?

— ⚡️ AYAKA COMFORTING THE READER

includes — ayaka

warnings — pre 2.0 release

pronouns — they/them

note — hey anon! sorry this took me so long to get to, but i hope that you’re feeling better as of now <3

Hello! If It Isn’t Too Much To Ask For, May I Request Just General Ayaka Comforting The Reader Hcs?

ayaka is an absolute queen at comforting/helping people — so if you ever need to be consoled or helped with anything, go to ayaka :)

now ayaka seems like the type to comfort people physically and verbally — while she rubs circles on your back with light hands, she’ll also whisper words of encouragement, understanding, and trust

she never brings her own problems into the situation like others may — instead of bringing up her own problems that could be compared to your own, she instead chooses to put herself in your shoes and try and help you find a solution that way

ayaka would (and you cannot convince me otherwise) neglect work — as long as it was not super super important — and just spend the day with you

she’d love to visit the more serene and calming places of inazuma because she knows that watching the leaves fall, the birds chirp, or the waves slosh against each other can help calm the entire body

overall, ayaka is very in tune with the people’s emotions who are around her — which makes her an amazing person to turn to in times of need

Hello! If It Isn’t Too Much To Ask For, May I Request Just General Ayaka Comforting The Reader Hcs?
