new hopes
summary: shinobu and itto find you on the beach hiding from the shogunate, and decide to help
-> warnings: n/a! just general imposter sagau things
-> lowercase intended!
Tumblr media
the night is calm.
shinobu walks along a road near the beach, taking itto from the police station again. they’re taking a detour so they can both enjoy the night, and the cool breeze is helping to soothe heated tempers. she’s less mad than normal, since this time he’s not in trouble for causing a ruckus, only for speaking up about the ‘imposter’ situation, but still. he should know better, especially when the authorities aren’t his biggest fans.
he suddenly stops, a hand tapping at her shoulder for her attention. “shinobu, look!”
she does, leaning forward to see you sitting on the beach. you don’t seem to be in the best of shape, and though outlander merchants are often left with nothing, this… feels different.
she’s not sure why, but she’s not going to get involved, that’s-
itto grabs her arm and pulls her with him as he walks over to you, and she sighs.
-not going to happen.
“hey there!”
you jump, violently, and shinobu’s eyes narrow. itto doesn’t seem to notice, continuing down the beach.
“what are you doing out here?”
you stumble to your feet, fear evident in the moonlight, and shinobu stops itto with a harsh tug.
“i- i’m not-“
“we’re not with the shogunate,” she says, putting you out of your misery, and you relax somewhat. “what are you out here for? you’ll get sick.”
“i’m… i was hiding.”
“hiding?“ ittos loud voice makes you flinch again, and he seems to notice, lowering his volume significantly. “what are you hiding for?”
shinobu rolls her eyes. it’s clear, at least to her, what happened to you, and she pulls him behind her. “don’t mind him. why is the shogunate after you?”
you stare, distrustful, and she doesn’t blame you. “i dont know. i don’t know what i did. i barely got to give my name and-“
she politely ignores the way you choke up before even finishing, looking you over. the tears on your clothes are too neat to be simple wear, but you don’t match any wanted posters she’s seen.
“you didn’t do anything?”
“n-no, i just- i barely had a chance to walk into the city before i was stopped by guards.”
itto crossed his arms with a huff. “well, that’s just wrong! at the very least they should tell you what rules you broke, and to try and arrest you so quickly? i’ve barely met you and i know you’re trustworthy!”
“boss, you shouldn’t decide things so rashly-“
“oh, don’t be silly! and even if they end up causing trouble i’m still the one and oni!“
“boss-“
“come on, you really think it’s wise to leave somebody out like this? what kind of oni would i be if i let somebody walk around in winter like that without even trying to help?”
shinobu is not sure when or why the conversation shifted to ‘let’s help you’ instead of ‘who are you’ but… itto was right. you would quickly get sick with such clothes, and the shogunate would swiftly catch you without proper shoes. considering that they didn’t even list out your charges(something she’s fairly certain is illegal, but she might have to check with heizou on that) and that she herself feels like she can trust you..
she takes off her jacket, as small as it is, and puts it over your head. though you tense, she notices that you don’t move away when she gets close. odd.
“that should help hide you from any guards. when we get to the base, i’ll get you a proper mask like mine.”
you smile.
Tumblr media
it’s late, so most of the gang is asleep, a fact shinobu is very grateful for. considering how much itto frightened you.. she doesn’t want to subject you to the raucous chatter of the whole gang just yet.
she brings you to the bathroom, showing you which bottles are which before promising to return with clothes.
hopefully genta won’t miss a set.
when you come out, collar askew and holding the extra layers in the hat, she wants to smile and punch a shogunate official at the same time. how could you be a threat? how could they need to arrest you when you apologize as she straightens out the ribbons? how could they take such drastic action against somebody who could barely figure out inazuman clothing?
she sits you down and gives you a plate of her specialty, omurice waltz. sure, it’s late, but she doubts you’ve eaten anything of substance in a while.
the speed with which it’s gone, almost like you’re afraid she’ll rip it away before you’re done, confirms it.
she’s definitely keeping you from the shogunate. anybody with eyes could see you’re not a threat, but it appears the police force has gone blind.
you weren’t sure how your life had taken so many wild turns after another. first you were almost arrested by the tenryou commission, and then you were resting by the beach, and now…
you sat in the corner of the gang’s dining room, some bowl of meat and rice in hand. though you’d been ushered in by itto—whose booming voice made you jump so high you’re surprised you didn’t hit the ceiling—and sat swiftly, he hadn’t spoken to you since. it was shinobu that had passed you your food, and the spoon you held since your grip wasn’t strong enough for chopsticks. she was not, however, the one to defend you when the gang started asking questions.
somebody sitting close to your corner turns, throwing an arm over his chair to point at you. “who is that by the way, boss?”
shinobu’s mouth opens, some diplomatic remark already on the tip of her tongue, most likely, but itto beats her to it.
“thats a refugee we found on the beach!” you’re a what-? “they were gonna get sick with the weather, and were hiding from the shogunate, so we took them in. shinobu told me that even her doushin friend didn’t know why they were being arrested, and he even helped divert the police!”
‘doushin friend’?
wait.
besides him, shinobu nods. “the most we could gather is that they were charged on no evidence, which is against the law. detective shikanoin is certain that they haven’t committed any crimes, and so they will be staying with us until it gets settled.”
‘detective shikanoin’…?
did shinobu know heizou?
you could feel your chances of survival rise with every second that went by.
“oh, alright then. what’s their name?”
“well you see, we kinda didn’t really have time for introductions since we were worried about the shogunate more than anything, so-“
shinobu sighs, and you’re suddenly frozen by her eyes on yours. “what’s your name?”
you remember your run-in with the guards, about how you barely got your first name out before they drew their spears-
you lie, give a fake name, and shinobu nods.
“hm… you mentioned them getting aggressive immediately after you introduced yourself, right?”
did you? you don’t really remember.
you nod anyway.
“i don’t remember seeing any cases with that name recently, but i’ll pass it on to detective shikanoin anyway. we’ll see what we can find.
a downside to having such a brilliant detective on your case was that he could expose you to everybody within an instant, and could probably predict your next move with pinpoint accuracy… but the possibility wasn’t as awful as having the shogunate itself after you. even if he ended up finding whatever file the tenryou commission had on you, being arrested at the hands of somebody you knew was a much better fate, in your opinion.
hed be a fatal enemy, for certain, but a perfect ally all the same.
the conversation had turned away from you, redirecting to some other crime the gang had accidentally committed. itto was waving around a half-empty glass, shinobu watching with amused eyes despite the harsh words coming from her mouth.
“you shouldn’t speak of the shogun that way.”
“why not? if she really had a problem with it, she’d strike me down with her lightning!”
“boss…”
the gang was loud, shouting across the table at each other and shoving those at their side in jest. the room was filled with the scent of spices and the sound of laughter, a sense of camaraderie and friendship settling in that you haven’t felt in a while.
perhaps…
perhaps you’d be alright.

Bunch of teams that i think are fun and been playing with lately just because talking about them making me excited and thats the point of this blog so:
Noelle burgeon team
Tumblr media
(Non of these teams are supposed to teach you anything) I like Noelle, i actually like most healers so I really wanted a team of her that felt *to me* fun to play and her burgeon team is pretty fun, she is a healer, driver and shielder she is on 4p exile and a fav claymore, i get her burst before we are done one rotation and its so fun and feel freeing in a way, noelle feels so right for this team, and the burgeon dmg looks amazing lol (tried it once in abyss and got two stars but i play on mobile so idk if someone more pro can actually get all three)
2. Lisa vacuum cleaner
Tumblr media
I Like lisa, actually every character i bothered making up teams for i do like so, but i like lisa especially i crowned her lol, its an aggravate team, but the release of Baizhu made her more fun to play, venti is much more fun than C0 kazuha especially in the overworld but if i want an effective dps lisa team it would be c2 kazuha or sucrose depending on who is available atm (with fischl ofc)
4. Keqing&Tignari team
Tumblr media
Ngl the entire point of this team is working around no Miko in my account but still wanting to maximize tighnari team dps, And who would have thought these two would fit together :D!!

what do you think are gorou's pet peeves?
what can't you trust kuki with?
-- @milkstore
[Character Analysis Ask Meme]
What is Gorou's pet peeve? 
Messy People Like a certain archon, our doggy general has a need for order. From a place with as few resources as Watatsumi Island, order is needed to ensure everyone’s needs are properly taken care of. Without such, it is not unlikely for essentials to become lost, supplies unaccounted for, and food wasted. It’s not much of a surprise, then, that messy people tend to stress Gorou out quite a lot. Messiness is a sign of laziness, a lack of discipline, and overall a lack of care. Really, if they are in a position of command, they have the potential to be a threat to Watatsumi as a whole. 
What can't you trust Kuki Shinobu with?
Letting You Exist If there is one thing that everyone knows about Shinobu, it’s that she can’t keep still. It often seems like every second of her day is spent studying, learning new things, gaining new certifications, directing the gang, and the like. Why should one be satisfied with their unsavory lot in life when they can strive for something more? This is a belief she applies to herself, but also one that she attaches to the people around her. While you may deal with mental illness, trauma, anxieties, and more, don’t expect her to let you sit and stagnate. Her understanding has its limits. She will get disappointed. She will nag. She will push you to better yourself. But don’t take this as necessarily a bad thing. Nobody enjoys seeing someone they care for suffer.

1.4k words of how well i think genshin characters would do in a slapfight competition
summary: what it says on the tin. here’s an example if you’ve never seen a slapfight. skip to ~3 min in.
i delayed the second part of ‘dearly beloved’ for this. /srs
spoilers for albedo, diluc, and childe lore. technically also for mondstat’s archon quest. i swear excessively and have heavy biases.
cast, in no order: beidou, albedo, kaeya, diluc, childe, kujou sara, tighnari, heizou, shenhe, xiao, kuki shinobu, ayato, hu tao, yanfei
masterlist
Tumblr media
beidou
- don’t think i need to explain this one. number one, she’s a sailor. number two, she’s a claymore user.
- she’s built like a brick and i do not take criticism on the subject. you’re wrong.
- she’ll walk in, taking a wide stance and crossing her arms, staring down whatever unlucky individual is her opponent. doesn’t matter how cocky they are, how many comments they make about “i thought this was supposed to be a real challenge!” or whatever. as the guy passes off his coors lite beer and prepares, she doesn’t say a word.
- she’ll just lift her chin, maroon eyes daring them to move.
albedo
- “ooo but albedos made of chalk, he’ll just shatter”
- nope. as funny as that image is, you’re wrong. incorrect. false. he has the bone structure of a person, he bleeds, he bruises, all of it. even if he isn’t organic in nature, everything that he is is human.
- now that we’ve got that aside, he can take a slap. absolutely. he probably has in the past, for whatever reason.
- his skin is pale—what with being chalk—so the redness shows up easier, but that’s the only evidence he ever got slapped, really.
- the most reaction you’ll get from him is a small flex of his jaw, maybe his eyes will slip shut or flutter. besides that, it’s like he never got hit.
- god forbid his opponent try and taunt him. i don’t know if that’s allowed within the rules but it is an awful idea to try.
- every movement of his is calculated, the careful fold of his gloves as he slides them off not betraying any emotion. the countdown starts but he doesn’t even try to wind up, barely giving his opponent time to prepare before it hits.
- don’t let the pretty boy alchemist look fool you. that opponent is walking out bruised, both on his cheek and his ego.
kaeya
- need i go on /hj
- can and will talk shit. it’s a given, sorry
- doesn’t matter if his opponent is a wall of muscle, he’s putting a hand on his hip and flipping his hair back, a scary gleam in his exposed eye. even if he has to tilt his head up to make eye contact, he will not let that stop him.
- when the slap comes, his shoulders will turn and it’ll definitely twist his body—he’s thin, lean instead of bulky, that’s expected. what isn’t is the laugh that immediately comes out of him, his stare as sharp as the spikes on his wrist when he lifts a hand to cover his mouth.
- “oh, is that all?”
- such a shit talker he gets the only line of dialogue in this piece. i love him.
- firm believer that he would give a better punch, just because his hand is probably better built for that, but his slaps still hurt like a bitch.
diluc
- so many opinions on this guy.
- first point, he’s a claymore user. automatically gets a leg up, just because his arms are used to swinging quickly with a lot of force behind them. he’s built beneath that jacket, and it shows.
- another that would make a display out of taking off his gloves, except his is less dexter level clinical and more ‘quiet victorian man winds down for the evening with a cup of tea and his latest read.’
- i think he’d have a hard time regularly swinging with intent behind it, but then he starts imagining his opponent with a fatui’s mask and it gets a lot easier.
- speaking of: his batman darknight duties?
- he literally spends his nights swinging around a claymore, you think he can’t hit one (1) guy??
heizou
- i encourage every heizou-haver to reread his story about the martial arts competition or whatever at the tenryou commission.
- his fists were his weapon and he was the undisputed winner. it’s the exact same here. another pretty boy that hits harder than you’d expect.
- sorry his section is short but i cannot elaborate. it’s so obvious.
- he’d get far, but maybe like. top 15? he’s not built for the heavier hits, and would definitely get dazed after a hit from, say, beidou.
- he couldn’t tackle the harder hitters, he would 100% pass out if he went into like top 5 territory, but everybody up until then better pray.
shenhe
- need i go on pt2
- she would 100% crack a man’s jaw. straight up.
- her face barely moves from a hit, and her opponent’s hand? its like they hit concrete.
- another short section just because i don’t feel the need to explain myself.
- she’s like the better version of childe: all the intent and strength, but with enough concentration to follow every rule, even when it looks like she doesn’t.
xiao
- xiao
kuki shinobu
- she is the literal definition of ‘talk shit, get hit’
- replay her story quest and go down the option that has her saving the gang members. the whole ‘gang rules’ arc??
- her only barrier would be taking off her mask, and though i’m not gonna touch on that specifically, were she to compete?
- she’d get far. she’s not really built for giving out or taking slaps, but she’ll do pretty good. 6.75/10
yanfei
- similar vein to shinobu.
- not really one that’ll get far, but will compete for bragging rights and get a respectable distance through the tournament.
- definitely nothing to scoff at, she may be a catalyst user but she’s also half adepti.
- she’s also a lawyer, so you can bet she’s following every single rule and still kicking your ass.
- also, that giant book she lugs around everywhere? the one in her idle? she has to have some sort of strength to her slap.
honorable mentions:
tighnari
- he could tank hits!! but he cannot give them out
- could take a slap like he was made to do it. would have to put away his hair but that won’t stop him. it would look like it hurt, but he waves off whoever asks if he’s fine.
- however, he could not slap hard enough, i don’t think. bows aren’t really brute force weaponry, and he’s more a healer in practice
- (not in-game, like in-lore)
kujou sara
- same problem, really.
- could take a slap, could not dish it.
- probably has a lesser chance at it than tighnari, really.
- it’s not her fault! she’s a ranged fighter! bows just don’t require the same muscle
childe
- i know what you’re thinking and the answer is no.
- now, he can take a slap. wont be fazed. he can give a slap. his opponent will be knocked out instantly.
- but he could never compete in a slapfight.
- he’d walk up, his face probably barely moving from its spot. but when it’s time to hit… he could not follow the rules at all.
- he’s too eager! he’s gonna play dirty! instinct can and will kick in and he’s either gonna slide his foot for a better stance or just fuckin deck the other guy.
- if he were to follow the rules, he would win hands down. but he cannot follow the rules, and so he is disqualified.
- sad days.
hu tao
- do not get me wrong. she could and would do excellent in a slapfight.
- she has the strength, the muscle, she could take a hit, the only thing she’s lacking is the will.
- in lore, she is not one for fighting. that is the one and only thing keeping her from wrecking every other competitor.
- she literally wrangles spirits day to day. she’s a polearm user—dude the strength required to spin those things around daily, especially with her kit?? she drains her own hp daily and still does it
- she’s not here because of a skill issue, but because of her beliefs. and that’s fair.
ayato
- dainty pretty boy that would be more affected by slaps than he’d let on, but it’s obvious in the way he sways and his hand shakes.
- he’d do well initially, but would 100% lose to even heizou.
- sorry king :/

Nigel and Abby are the main holders of the braincell, tossing it between each other often. Hoagie sometimes takes the braincell every once in a while, while Kuki has the braincell once in a blue moon. Wally never has the braincell and never will
