i dont know what your thoughts are about it but recently I've been getting into robinhill lmao

I heard that it was a ship growing in popularity! I like it in concept but I gotta see how/if the characters interact in canon before I make a call (doesn't always need to happen, but canon dynamics can help me see it)

I do know I've seen some hilarious robinhill tiktoks tho

#jibber jabber #not tickles #robin is also incredibly adorable and i kinda wanna pull fr her when she drops... #she's not even in my usual strategy & playstyle but that song she just belts midbattle... its so cute #also boothill's va is fucking hilarious so i'm warmed to him. but if his ass touches acheron he is on thin ice

... I might have to miss Arle after all

So we talking abt genshin teams and what not? Okay.

Neuvibloom. That's literally the name I got for my team after I realized my team was a Neuvillette hyperbloom team - Neuvillette, kazuha, Raiden and nahida

(read, I don't care abt teams, I just like Big Damage.)

And I recently got his weapon in like, One Single after losing to xiao's weapon (and my savings in the process).

You could say I stay winning bc. Early pity kazuha with a guaranteed from itto (thanks), c1 Neuvillette winning 50/50, and his weapon, also winning 50/50.

I'm also considering getting furina cuz im setting up gaming's team cuz yeah. And maybe Wriothesley, too, because why not.

- Felix

🤔 This is good... My teams are all based on vibes you actually seem to factor in damage GHFHDHS

Furina is good for healing + off-field dmg (unless you're like me & force her kit for onfield)

My current team makeup is Furina+Navia primary DPS, Ei off-field, and the final spot is interchangable based on what I need - currently held up by Wanderer

My previous team was Yanfei, Ei, Yae, and Qiqi, & they did numbers man. My main strat tends to be elemental reaction damage rather than pure physical ghdjsj

#jibber jabber #not tickles #whatever lets me do the least amt of work is what I opt for

[ghastigiggles]

i mostly use furina as healer than dps but kokomi's great too fr she's so prettyyy .., last time he was around I accidentally got lyney at c1 lol he's good and all but I hardly use him </3 you can have my lyney

I Wont Him <- notorious dumbass kinnie of fontanian leg garter wearers

#jibber jabber #not tickles #funniest shit ill ever say abt myself gn #anyway re: kokomi i have pulled for her every. single. time. and she NEVER COMES HOME #makes me cry frfr #furina is my dualclass though bc her heals are super strong #but im bad at balancing and like to try solomaining #(venti carried me for so long dude you have no idea)

[ghastigiggles]

No because for real. I have navia and furina on the same team (hoping to either get arle or clorinde for a fontainebwoman team 😎) and they like. Fuck up anybody who gets in their way

Real I'm shooting for Arle and. if I can afford him Lyney bc I missed him on the first round

#jibber jabber #not tickles #I'd like to get Kokomi at some point too

[ghastigiggles]

unrelated to the ship topic - can we talk about how cute both navia and furina are? I have them both and sometimes I have to pause in game and Admire for a moment because Pretty women. Cute women I love them. Cocker spaniel and toy poodle fr

No fr. And I don't know abt any other navifuri havers but on the same team they actually do crazy dps together?

#jibber jabber #not tickles #using their e and q together does so much

[ghastigiggles]

ughhh wrio clori and neuvi polycule is soooo gooddddd omfggg tbh i've always been a fan of wriorinde because while neuvi being in there is cool and all i think he'd both be too busy for it and if he'd be in a relationship with anybody i think it'd be furina pre masquerade of the guilty ahsjdh!! Idk wriolette shippers kinda piss me off as well because they like Pushing

wrioney's never been a favorite of mine bc while I used to be a bit into it i looked at wrio's voicelines and he refers to lyney & his siblings as kids which made me sort of :(!! for wrio i'd say wrio x clorinde is best and then for furina it's neuvifuri, then they have their nation drowning prophetic divorce, leading to navifuri agsjdhejsb 💀💀💀

that's just my opinion tho fr

All of this is absolutely fair and valid!

When it comes to Neuvillette being in any ships I consider it like. A part-time low-commitment thing on his part fr sure. With how secretively emotional he actually is I don't see him getting too close with too many people (even Furina admits that after working alongside him since. basically the beginning, she doesn't know half as much abt him as she wishes she did), so it seems like smth he does just to stave off occasional loneliness.

As far as Wrioney for me... idk it hits different? I mean we know Lyney and Lynnette are whole ass adults so I feel comfortable shipping them with other adults, &. Maybe slightly problematic of me but I'm actually okay with age gap ships as long as certain requirements are met (ie no power imbalance - and let's be fair here, when it comes to power, I think Wrio and Lyney are on pretty equal footing overall post-story. & both siblings end up having a platonic relationship with him too iirc, which helps my chemistry stipulations.) Having said that you'll find no judgement from me ghdjsjs that is absolutely valid

And maybe it's bad of me but I never rlly saw neuvifuri as a romantic thing... Both are too secretive abt themselves for their entire career. BUT they do love each other for sure, that much I'm positive of. Whether it's mutual pining or more familial, there is a deep bond to be found in ruling a nation you love so deeply while fearing the inevitable and trying to protect it, and each other, in your own way. I like that they still have a relationship post-story, too.

#jibber jabber #not tickles #i might get cancelled for this one chat /hj #i wanna be clear with the age gaps: it is NOT an across the board thing #and CERTAINLY not with underage ships #BUT an age gap between two consenting adults with little to no power imbalance can be. oh. chefs kiss #maybe im more tolerant of that with queer ships too tho... #bc age gaps like that are fairly common in the queer community #at least they are local to me & my family #shrugs

[ghastigiggles]

the more i think about it, the more healthy navifuri seems ahsjhdnd they're like THE healthiest furina ship lol also clorifuri isnt bad at all fr clorinavifuri

I do think Clorinde is another great conditional addition to the polycule in certain contexts! I just personally didn't see as much potential romantic/shippy chemistry with Clorinde and the girls

In a rare twist of fate I actually see Clorinde, Wriothesly and Neuvillette being the more interesting polycule for Clorinde (though i've rlly been enjoying wriolyney too. my poly ships are a mess)

#jibber jabber #not tickles #i do like clorinde dont get me wrong! shes a fun complex character #and i do believe she is at the very least close friends with navifuri #if not occasionally included in the polycule

[ghastigiggles]

god the mix between slightly softer tickles from navia (although navia is VERY capable of wrecking. And has in fact done so before) to those scratching nails from arlecchino would have furina in SHAMBLES poor girl would be malfunctioning ahdkdhe

heaven forbid they decide they'll Both do rough tickles ahsjdh furi's dead

It is just so incredibly easy to squish Furina between them and go to town. I think a dual soft attack would turn her into a puddle ngl, soft traces on both sides with whispered teases just ending her whole career

#jibber jabber #navifuri agenda #when she finally gets too overwhelmed she accidentally summons the water cabaret #and utter chaos ensues as they rush to 'defend' her

[ghastigiggles]

ARLENAVIFURI TICKOLS. Arlecchino would destroy them both lol no doubt abt it

Arlenavifuri tickles that start by Navia fucking around with Furina and Arle just kind of watching for a bit in silence. Furina getting flustered when she notices and Navia, still 100% in ler mode, turning on Arlecchino with the threat. Arlecchino getting the faintest little smirk and humming in reply before proceeding to decimate Navia entirely. Navia who shrieks for Furina's help even though she walked into this. Furina who watches with big wide eyes, beet red, realizing she is soooooo cooked between both of these women.

Arle and Navia regularly double teaming Furina, who has never been happier to be knocked off her high horse.

#jibber jabber #navifuri agenda #RAMMING MY HEAD INTO THE WALL. RAMMING IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND O #imagine if you will. furina looking like komi from komi cant communicate as she watches arle wreck navi

[ghastigiggles]

they (furi & arle) could relate so much because of the curse, the love for their people (and in arle's case her children as well) which is kept under wraps as well as a possible feeling of loneliness (i dont know about arle but it's possible because of her friend from when she was younger and the fact that she's the sole survivor or something like that)

arlecchino inviting furina on a casual platonic kind of date (furina wants to deny but also she's scared of what'll happen if she denies lol) but it turns out to be a very nice experience for them both, and furina returns home that evening confused but also with slightly lighter spirits when it comes to the harbinger

this begins a small cycle - every so often, arle would stop by (not too often at all because she's busy - furina's glad about that, because while she's warming up to arle she'd still be a bit overwhelmed with too much of her presence) they'd begin warming up to each other, and eventually furi can call arle something akin to a friend (she still gets a bit spooked or startled when arle, for example, raises an arm or something but it's good progress nonetheless!!)

idk i just like them :) Everyone's like "toxic yuri pog" and while you're RIGHT. Toxic yuri pog. May we also consider: two cursed mfs being cursed together and understanding one another

Raises my hand. I'd like to build on this with conditional arlenavifuri.

Navia has closer relations to Arlecchino through business - the Hearth and Spina have been in close cahoots on similar goals for awhile, after all, and while Navia knows better to fully let her guard down around a Harbinger, she does have a level of trust in Arlecchino - at the very least, she believes that they both want the best for Fontaine.

She knows Furina wants that too. Furina and Navia have a relationship based far more in trust post-story, so I truly believe setting the scene with all three of them sharing the room diffuses the tension a bit.

I feel like this polycule is a bit more of a situationship than anything - at this point in her life, I doubt Arlecchino would let herself be truly vulnerable around anyone, but she can be more candid and soft around these two after a time, a relationship forged on mutual, deep respect rather than trust.

A betrayal is always anticipated. They're all prepared for it, and with candor, they're prepared to respect it at least - even if they have to stand against each other again. For now, they'll enjoy the good times together.

STELLEMARCH REQUEST I LOVE YOU

#jibber jabber #DOING ZOOMIES IN MY HYPOTHETICAL WRITING ROOM #they are girlfriends yr honour #i cant wait for next hsr update too to flesh out firefly. in my head stellemarchfly is a lovely polycule #ah yes. my gender envy they/she her pastel hyperpop gf and her mecha magical girl gf

[ghastigiggles]

not a prompt but grrr lee arlecchino. I understand she's like a big ler and all, yknow she's got the claws and the expression and everything ler but tbh I also want her to. loosen up a bit

she's probably never been tickled in her life so just gently running fingers down her lower back or rubbing into the spots between her ribs or softly massaging that sensitive bundle of nerves just above her hip bones to have her shoulders bouncing with breathy giggles

she wouldn't have a very loud laugh I think - or maybe she would but she just wouldn't allow herself to get *that* vulnerable - if you begin to get to that point then she would put a quick stop to it and maybe even turn the tables oops but her tickle laugh would be soft and breathy, if on a slightly worse spot then some voice does go into it, and she definitely hiccups (perhaps an occasional squeak could be pulled out)

also baby arlecchino is so cute i'd love to just pull her onto my lap and gently tickle herrr augh!!! /pos children are so cute

im sorry for the randomness but you're one of the only blogs I know who writes/likes gi/hsr/etc women so i'll just deposit this here lol

THIS IS GOOD SHIT ANON. ough.

Arle is definitely the type of woman who would have a very difficult time letting down her guard enough to let Anyone go at her like that, I think; it really is a state of vulnerability, and while I'm sure she encourages the children of the Hearth to play around, she would scarce let herself indulge. Too much danger, after all.

I imagine her as the type of lee that can kind of "turn it off", y'know? Where someone can make a go of it but because her guard is raised and she's focused and tense, there's just no reaction. It's easy to convince would-be lers that she's not ticklish at all.

It would take being around someone she knows she can trust completely and wholly to finally put her guard down and relax enough to let it happen - though I still imagine that even if she enjoys the sensation just a little, any attempt at getting her good is cut woefully short.

She's got a reputation to keep, after all, and whoever tried it needs to relearn their place.

#jibber jabber #i am frothing at the mouth over this bc i am truly so down bad for her #this is rlly one of those times where i sit and think abt arle earning furina's trust post-flood #i do think they'd have quite a lot to bond over realistically if furina can overcome her fear #(which is well-placed btw. i too would be terrified of the woman who feinted an attempt on my life) #having said that bratty furina and quiet authoratative arlecchino are a very good lee/ler dynamic
