Genshin WOMEN as cats!
Just pure fluff! Gender neutral reader
Characters included: Beidou, Candace Dehya, Eula, Ei, Jean, Lisa, Navia, Shenhe, Yae Miko
Jean
Oh so very stressed. Even once assured her state is temporary and will be reversed by tomorrow. For the day Lisa is left in charge as you must now try to get your catified wife to calm down. Tasty fish perhaps? In reality the real thing she need is a looooong nap. You must make her a comfortable bed, one plush and warm that makes her feel safe and loved aka your lap she wants to sleep on your lap and you have no choice but to oblige. And jean is a deep sleeper. Commonly does she get little sleep. So now that she can she basically sleeps the day away enjoying your pats and kisses.
Navia
Upon her relief that it is temporary she is a most silly kitty. She decides to go out to get fresh fish from Poisson, curious to see if it tastes better now that she’s a cat. You and her body guards must simply accompany her. You hold her on a plush pillow as she meows orders to you. A strange sight indeed for any passerbys. But nonetheless is she a verrry pretty kitty. Oh you cannot neglect her! She deserves many chin scratches and ear scratches too! And she expects them, politely bumping her head into you for more.
Lisa
She probably just goes back to sleep I’ll be real. Lisa probably concocted the ordeal herself for some experiment or just for fun. She will explore Mondstadt’s city. Expecting you to follow and buy her needs. If course being s tasty meal. Afterwards she can’t help but nap in the warm grass making you sit down with her. Before you know it you also take a nap.
Eula
How obscene! Herself? a cat?! Who dare do such a thing! She demands vengeance immediately! The world must know her wrath! You have a very vocal and very angry kitty on your hands so… maybe catnip would be useful? It helps immensely as she now acts like a silly little kitty who keeps dosing off. Once she’s back though she will seek vengeance upon you for daring to drug her in such s state! Even if it was for her benefit!
Beidou
The crew is more panicked than she is. Simply lounging about, eating fish. She sits on your lap like its a throne. A day off is very appreciated. She ends up overfed though as her crew worries about her. You have to physically stop her from eating her 7th fish in a row! She is small now she can’t eat a while shark like before! She ends up annoyed when she can’t drink with her men like before either. Oh well at least she has you. It’ll be a funny story to tell her friends back at shore.
Shenhe
Confused! She is however very calm. She tries to go about her day as normal but that doesn’t go well. She concludes that she should spend the day napping. You however want to spoil and pamper her as she’s so small and very very cute. A elegant white kitty! Your affections are not denied. She does enjoy the chin scratches. She loved her sides being pet. Just don’t let Cloud Retainer see otherwise she’ll freak out.
Ei
She is a cat? How so? How can this be? Fascinating? Unfortunately she must give up desserts for the day which is the most devastating news. Thunderstorms will be a plenty as she mopes having to endure one day of no sweets. She will pout and sulk. Not in your lap but instead resting against your thigh. She will try some fish but is repulsed by its non sweet flavor! How horrible!
Candace
Also very alarmed! She is a protector of Aaru Village! How can she give up one day. You end up contacting Dehya to take over as Candace tries to enjoy cat life. The sand in her toe beans is annoying. But for her the worst is eating unseasoned meat. Kitty stomachs cannot handle spices or advanced flavoring she oh so adores. How unfortunate for her. But at least she has you! You will have to find something entertaining for her to do. Maybe play with the kids or climb trees? Unlike the other catified women she won’t nap until tired. And she is a resilient woman. When she sees you tuckered out and sleeping however she joins you, resting on your chest.
Dehya
Worried but also kind of excited. What adventures can she have now? She wants to go all across sumeru but you make her settle on just sumeru city. She wants to try alot of things. Namely hunting! She’s hunted before sure but she wonders if its easier to be a cat? She aims for pigeons and cranes. With no success you decided to make her a hearty meal of chicken as compensation. Just then she managed to catch one! Oh she is so proud! Proudly showing off her catch with pride! You get to prepare it though, she isn’t interest in eating a mouthful of feathers. She’s also bummed out at no seasonings but hey she’s just proud she could catch something. She also very happy to spend this time with you. It’ll be a funny story to share.
Yae Miko
Unlike most of the ladies here, she is definitely doing this on purpose and is likely doing so for multiple days. She does so in order to get up to some silly mischief as her fox form has become too noticeable. She steals food all while getting away with it because she’s a cute kitty! She spies on rival writers, she causes drama between civilians. You end uo having to quarantine her until she turns back. Oh but then she goes back to mess with you! Is the kitty following you to work her or just a kitty? You’ll never know now. Your lap is never safe again!

When you are burnt out😵‍💫
A short paragraph for each common symptom🫥
✨Genshin edition✨
Mildly edited, apologies for mistakes🫶
——-
Zhongli - headache
He would be prepared. He would have noticed you taking on too much in the past weeks. He would try to convince you to take little breaks, but you would have none of that. You have so many thoughts all punching at your skull to escape. By the time you are at breaking point he is basically standing by with the pain relief tea and a blanket ready to scoop you up and make you rest. Once you finally agree, head spinning, he would hold you close and lay in a cozy silence with you as you finally allow your mind to drift away from work.
Scaramouche - bad mood
Has absolutely no idea why you are so cranky, but knows he hates it. He tries to avoid you while you are acting weird, so doesn’t notice how much extra work you are taking on. Then one day he comes home to find you sleeping at your desk surrounded by papers and a pain relief tea at your side. He will organise your messy work for you and wash your cup while mumbling about how silly mortals are. Then he will wake you up and force you to go to bed. Any protests will be ignored as he drags you away from your work.
Beidou - forgetfulness
She spends a lot of time away at sea, so she wouldn’t notice your busyness. When she returns from sea, it can usually be late at night. She would come home after weeks away and be surprised to see you aren’t at home sleeping like usual. She would wait up for you, since you are aware of her planned return. When you finally get home you apologise profusely, simply so busy you forgot. She sees your exhaustion and tells you to make it up to her by coming away with her to sea next time. She tells you that you deserve a break from your life. You can do nothing but accept. She is absolutely right and you would love to be able to see her everyday, even if just for a few weeks.

Thank you for reading 🌷

sworn on the stars ~ prologue - genshin impact // sagau // imposter au
01 02
summary: to know the one protected by the stars is to know the blessings of the very world we traverse on. to betray them is to turn our backs on the very notion peace.
ie. they say that with every terrible storm comes a rainbow infinitely more beautiful than the trials that one leaves behind. let’s test that theory, shall we?
————————————
You were tired of it all.
Perhaps you had used up all of your fortune in another life, or the universe simply held some sort of grudge against your soul. Either way, you found yourself sick and tired of everything that had happened in the last few years.
First came the death of your beloved parents. The ones who had tried to raise you with so much love until they were cruelly taken away by the hands of death. They’d left you with enough fortune to sustain yourself for the rest of your days.
Then came the new ones. The ones who had turned your life into a real Cinderella story, though this peasant would never meet their prince. The ones who had subjected you to so much abuse that you had nearly become numb to it all.
You’d moved from household to household throughout most of your life. The ones who were kind to you always met misfortune, and the ones who were cruel always seemed to have gotten caught far too late.
Five years ago, you became so dreadfully ill that no other family was willing to take you in, not even if you had offered them money to do so. It felt as though the world was rejecting your very being, like it had finally had enough of you being around. Your body gradually shut down, despite your youth. The doctors could not diagnose you, for there was nothing that seemed to be wrong.
Except everything was wrong. You could feel your life fading, though you were never one to care much about the prospect of death. You’d just assumed it would’ve come later.
In the worst moments of your life, you’d come across a game called Genshin Impact. You’d come across it just before it’s official release: the new and hyped up game from Mihoyo that would soon have its’ players entranced.
Perhaps you were desperate for another outlet. You were a smart child, yet there never seemed to be enough media in this world to properly stimulate your mind. Storybooks had stopped bringing new adventure into your life. In the world of academics, you had studied nearly everything that you could possibly get your hands on up until the end of secondary school.
You wanted to immerse yourself in a world where you could be free to walk and run and perhaps find something of interest. To finally reacquire that spark in you that had been lost so long ago.
‘An open-world game, huh? Might as well give it a shot.’
And so you did. And you’d fallen in love for the first time in your life. With the characters and the story, for they always did bring excitement into your dreary days. But most of all, it was with the world you had explored. There was always something new to catch your interest when you were in Teyvat, and you’d gradually grown fond of the characters behind the screen. They were life your family.
Sometimes, the people of your world would forget about your existence. You’d started as an anomaly of the medical world, but as the years passed you became nothing more than a forgotten presence that once had meaning; a myth.
As the game updated each time, you were always eager to indulge for the characters with the money you knew you’d never be able to use otherwise. When you wear Teyvat, all felt right with the world, as if a dirty fog had been cleared from your mind.
Those days, when you were left alone in your very own hospital room, you’d pull up the character’s voice lines and speak back to them, or absentmindedly run throughout the regions.
Sometimes you imagined being able to comfort Zhongli and Xiao, old souls that had gone through so much throughout their long lives. You dreamed about exploring the vast seas with Beidou and her crew. Wishing about visiting the city of freedom and feeling the wind on your face as Amber instructs you on how to use a glider. Wanting to visit the beautiful city of Inazuma and bring relief to all those that had needed it.
But those were merely the dreams- perhaps even delusions- of a person nearing the end of their life. The years had passed, and many regions had become unlocked since you had begun. But now, you could barely stand to open your eyes, let alone admire the beautiful scenery in Teyvat.
‘Soon I’ll be gone from this sorry room, I guess. I just wish I could be in that world one last time.’
You silently thanked the stars for the last few years, dreadful as they were.
And so the young soul was taken too soon. Their body was taken by death, but their soul? Their soul was taken by another world entirely.
But perhaps this world isn’t so new as one might think. Maybe, just maybe, the world would help you solve the mysteries of your life, just as you had helped build it up from the very beginning.

༺ Dozing Desire ༻
Tumblr media
Pairing : Kazuha, Beidou, Heizou, Thoma (in order)
Authors note : I have procrastinated this for far to long, so I finally finished this. It was supposed to be released a while ago😅Also there is no use of Y/N in my writing ever :)
Warnings : Seasickness/v0mit in Beidou’s, injuries in Thoma’s (no gore), mentions of bl00d in Thoma’s
Here is my masterlist!
Enjoy !
Tumblr media Tumblr media
K. Kazuha 🍁
A soft hand ran slowly up and down your back, KAZUHA was leaned on the trunk of a tree while your head rested upon his shoulder.
Kazuha’s other hand was used to write Haikus down on a sheet of paper, reading them to you as he went along. His head rested on top of yours and you could feel the vibration of his voice as he spoke.
Your eyes soon grew heavy, but desperate to stay open. Kazuha noticed the slowing of your breath and looked down at you. He slightly chuckles at the sight, careful not to disturb you.
“Dove, rest. For your eyes seek to shut, but continue to be forced awake.” Kazuha whispered. He quietly set down his pen and began to softly play with your slightly tousled hair.
“Kazu…” you whine, sitting up and rubbing your eyes, still a bit heavy with sleep. “I’m not tired.” You stifled a yawn while shaking your head.
Your head rested on Kazuha’s shoulder once more, he smiled softly and continued his haiku. Only when he felt your head sliding off of his shoulder did he stop writing.
Kazuha caught your forehead in his palm, chuckling again. With his free hand, he moved the haiku out of his lap and ont the grass beside him. He then laid your head on his lap and brushed his hands through your hair.
“And you said you weren’t tired. Sleep well, dove.” Kazuha yawned, closing his eyes along with you to join you in dreamland.
Tumblr media
Beidou 🍻
You leaned over the edge of the crux, releasing the breakfast you had earlier this morning. You slumped against one of the ships walls, wrapping an arm around your stomach.
You grabbed your water pouch with shaky hands and washed the awful taste out of your mouth, spitting it out over the edge of the ship. With closed eyes, you laid on the floor.
You heard footsteps coming towards you, but you didn’t dare open your eyes to worsen the dizziness. But then, you heard a familiar voice that finally made you force your eyes open.
“Hey, sweets. You doin’ okay?” BEIDOU said, squatting near your frail body and running a hand over your forehead. Your eyes met hers and she smiled at you.
“Beidou.. I don’t feel good..” You softly cried, moving to hug Beidou. She rested her hand on your back and rubbed up and down.
“Ah, I know baby. Here, let’s get you to one of our rooms, okay?” She whispered, picking you up bridal style and kissing your head.
She walked both you and her to one of the free rooms on the ship with soft steps, desperately trying not to make you anymore nauseous than you already are.
Beidou carefully laid you down on the bed and sat beside you. She slowly ran her fingers over your forehead in an attempt to calm you enough to sleep.
“Thank you, Bei..” You almost incoherently mumbled, and then you dozed off peacefully. Beidou continued to rub your forehead.
“Your welcome, sweets.” Beidou whispered, slowly getting up and walking out of the room after turning off the lights.
Tumblr media
S. Heizou 🔎
You and HEIZOU had been up all night working on a case. A very hard one at that, and neither of you got much sleep at all.
Heizou had taken a nap earlier, which was very rare for him, but he simply said he needed to ‘freshen up’ before continuing his he case.
And you? You worked on the case while he was napping. As his detective accomplice, or as Heizou likes to say, ‘partner in crime’, he trusts you to deal with the cases when he cannot, and vice versa.
Unlike Heizou, you haven’t napped or taken a break at all, and you were utterly exhausted. Meanwhile, Heizou was living it up in his dreams and was completely oblivious of your situation.
Well, not completely. Before his nap he noticed that you look about as tired and droopy as he did, Heizou had also told you to nap so you didn’t over exert yourself.
You didn’t listen. You wanted the best for Heizou, since he was always so exhausted you wanted this case to be as easy as possible. But, there weren’t really any benefits for you.
Heizou had awoken from his nap and went straight to his office to check up on you, only to see your head bobbing up and down and eyes hardly open.
“Ah, partner. I see I might have accidentally worked you to the brim… don’t worry. Come here.” Heizou whispered, reaching his hands out to you like he was about to pick up a child.
“Hrnggg.. s’fine… zou…” you muttered, attempting to slap his hands away, but failing miserably. Heizou picked you up and held you like a child.
“It is not fine, my dearest. You are practically asleep right now. If you are so awake, let me ask you a question. What was the main course of action that…….” His voice faded as your consciousness faded with it.
Heizou noticed this after the question and chuckled to himself. He sat down on the bed and laid you on top of him, and he kissed your forehead while stroking your hair.
You were drooling on his collar, but as long as you slept sufficiently he didn’t mind.
Tumblr media
Thoma 🔥
You stumbled into Komore Teahouse, seeking out your beloved, THOMA. To no surprise, he was there. Thoma was feeding Taroumaru when you walked in.
“Ah! There you are- woah! What happened?” Thoma exclaimed anxiously while trotting over to you, who was currently trying to balance on the wall.
“Uh, it’s really nothing- ah shit!..” you hissed in pain as you toppled to your knees, arm still clutching the wound on your stomach.
“Here, I have bandages in my bag I think! Let me take you to a room.” Thoma hooks and arm under your legs and another under your back to support you.
You sit on the floor, still moaning and groaning in pain. Thoma rushes back over with the gauze and bandages, kneeling down in front of you.
“I have to clean the wound first to prevent it from getting infected, it will definitely hurt. But, ah.. oh! Here, squeeze my free hand!” He offers his hand out to you, and you gladly take it.
Right as the disinfectant wipe touches the gash on your stomach, tears well up in your tightly shut eyes and your mouth contorts into a grimace.
“Shh, I know it hurts. Remember, squeeze my hand.” Thoma reassures. You do as he said and squeeze his hand as hard as you can at the moment. It didn’t really help, but you couldn’t tell him that.
Once Thoma finished your bandages, he pulled you into a tight hug. Just then you noticed how unbearably exhausted you were, the overbearing pain, the hours of training and fighting you had done today, they were both taking a toll on you.
A yawn escaped your lips before you nuzzled your head into Thomas neck. He raised his hand to touch the back of your head as he rocked slowly side to side.
“Sweetums, you can’t keep doing this. Okay? It makes me worried every time you come home bleeding all over the place. It also worries me that the blood will stain your clothes…” Thoma mumbles.
“M’ sorry, Thoma..” you whispered sleepily as you stifled another yawn. Thoma kissed the crown of your head before chuckling at your dreary reply.
“It’s okay, just promise me that you’ll try to be more careful, okay?” He knew couldn’t hear him, you had already fallen asleep. The soft snores coming from your form gave it away.
As long as you were safe now, that was all that mattered in the present moment.

a little Genshin oneshot-ish thing if you'd like it. i do, at least.
requests are open :D
enjoy! ^^
Tumblr media
If you called them up and told them you don't feel safe.
Genshin women edition
feat. Beidou; Ningguang; Lisa; Shenhe; Jean
Tumblr media
Beidou
Is already on her way as soon as you hit the "call" button
She would not be too far (in a maximum of 50 meters range) because she knew that was coming and she was just waiting for the occasion, sitting in her black Dodge Challenger
She wouldn't worry about the parking fine she may get, Beidou just dropped the car in front of the building you were in and walked in like the owner of the whole block
Would abso-fucking-lutely hit and step on the person (twice or thrice even after they left you alone) who was disturbing you and promised them eternal suffering if they would ever breathe one air with you ever again
Would get you anything you want from McDonald's and Starbucks afterwards and play your favourite songs in her car
Would have her warm hand on your thigh all the way home to make you comfortable ❤️
Tumblr media
Ningguang
You wouldn't even had to call her since she bought the place you always go to (and definitely not to keep an eye on you and your dangerous environment, of course)
Pretends she's just a bartender so she could be near you anytime without being suspicious (and knock out anyone that tries to fuck up your weekend chill)
Always has her eyes on you and is in contact with the security guards just in case
As soon as someone starts to behave funny around you she's like a venomous snake ready to grind it's prey (even tough 99% of the time you can perfectly handle it)
And if it gets out of hand she just sets the security guards on it and it's solved (or ~legally~ drugs the disturbance out of sight)
She often glances at you, trying to catch your eyes and ask if you're okay or just in need of another drink, which is on the house of course 🧡
Tumblr media
Lisa
Would always go with you and won't wait for your invitation, so basically there would be no need of calling her
She always has her hand around you (especially your hips and butt) to show everyone that you are hers and hers only
If someone approaches you with doubtful intentions she flirts back instead of you, makes them back up, wraps her arms around you and makes sure to kiss your body in various places in public
After every "attack" - as she calls it - she takes you to your favourite places and goes out with you even more times a week (which can be a littlebit of overwhelming) to "win you back"
Library dates or an outside picnic in the most beautiful places - her speciality to make you feel safe, and tell you over and over again that you don't have to worry about getting in trouble as long as you have her
Would go after your attacker in the dead of night to teach them a memorable lesson 💜
Tumblr media
Shenhe
She doesn't have a phone.
If she can't be with you (which occurs from time to time - sometimes she needs a bit of me-time in the mountains) she always sets Cloud Retainer to keep an eye on you
You two have a special ring (which kind of funcions as a promise ring as well) made out of a rare stone that lights up both if one of you intentionally touches it. That's the sign - a single light-up means help, I'm in danger. And if it would ever be to happen, Shenhe would not even leave 0.1 seconds to waste - she would be on her way no matter how far you two are from eachother
As soon as she gets there, she wouldn't wait for an explanation (she's always quick to scan the situation), Shenhe would simply pick you up in bridal carry and leave the scene
After that she would not leave your side for weeks (while you assured her at least a thousand times that you are perfectly fine, and the people who caused it were already gone) even when she feels uncomfortable amongs humans
Would buy you the most delicous foods no matter the price and hold your hand all day long 💙
Tumblr media
Jean
She would not even let you near any dangerous situations or places because she couldn't bear losing any more people especially if it's you
But if it would ever be the case, you wouldn't have to call her - she already knows about it because she ordered a Knight to take care of you and protect you at all costs
Would be there in literal minutes no matter how far she is or how much her work is, you are more important at the moment
First she would make sure that you're not harmed, and if that's the case, she would solve the problem with simple diplomacy - but if you're harmed in any ways, she would not be so diplomatic about it
Meaning that she would even throw the guilties into jail after a good duel to show them they messed with the wrong women
Would not let you out of her office, or - as a last resort - the library (where of course you'd be under the 24/7 watch of Lisa) for looong long days until she made absolute sure that you'll be safe and sound, and after that she'd walk you home, cook you some food and then lay down with you in a just-in-case safety-first cuddle trough the whole night 💚

Genshin Guys Taking Care of You When You're Sick~
ft. Aether, Albedo, Bennett, Childe, Diluc, Gorou, Venti, Kazuha, Xiao, Xingqiu, Zhongli, Thoma
Heard everyone is sick for the holidays, including yours truly so here's some sick comfort! Its been a while since I played, and I'm npt caught up in the archon quests so Im sorry if theres any inaccurate headcanons in here, otherwise I hope yall enjoy ^^
Aether
This sweet man would be good at taking care of you, just possibly not the best
He and Lumine got sick when they were little and had to help each other out, so he obviously knows what to do, but its been a while
For this headcanon, lets say you have the common cold, but Aether is so caught up in trying to figure out symptoms and medicines and he always wonders when the next time he or his friends will be attacked, so our boy is overthinking a whole LOT
He probably thinks you have the flu, he heard it was spreading in Mondstadt and you then conviently passed out when yall went fishing w Paimon
first thing he does is pick you up and lay you near a statue of the 7, before grabbing a cool rag
Everything probably would roll smoothly if it werent for paimon distracting him
He takes a deep breath and continues w paimon pestering him lmao
just imagine waking up on the comfy grass and hearing a hushed argument until Paimon just starts yelling and makes your head split in 2
Aether would put his hands on your ears when he tells paimon to leave
He sighs and gathers you into his arms to hold you, he truly was worried
He would try to make you chuckle a bit with some dad jokes to downplay his worry
I can see him trying to take all the burden on himself so you dont have to suffer any longer than you have to🥲 pls let him know that youre okay
he ends up cooking some fish for you, even if youre not hungry, he will try to make eating seem fun? in a way ig
he'll make the train noises or the airplane, maybe even tickle you a bit to get you to open your mouth
he'll also give you a bit of his clothing if youre cold, if youre the opposite, he will grab some more water from the pond you were fishing at
Aether was taking a long time at the pond so you gathered some flowers you found about the area, you were fine for the most part but you felt imbalanced
you saw aether in the distance and you walk to him before accidentally collapsing in his arms
if you get a low grade fever when you get the cold, he will freak out a bit, especially if you start coughing and he will take you to barbara
when he learns its just a cold from the church he will sigh in relief, glad youll be okay
he feels a tug on his sleeve and in his view he'll see some dandelions ticking his face as you push the flowers towards him
he pats your head and takes your gift, he'll continue to make you rest in the church and continue visiting til you get better! he n paimon will bring a few gifts too :D
Albedo
this mans is basically your own doctor and I feel like if he gets bored, he will abandon his work in a heartbeat (unless one of the mondstadt officials request his research djdjdj)
You're in dragonspine, a freezing place that you probably shouldnt be in due to your lack of clothes
when you start to sneeze a few times, albedo doesnt think too much at first, he's seen many people sneeze and be fine a few mins later
but when you keep sneezing, he keeps side eyeing you, silently observing you until you sneeze for the 5th time
he'll head over to you (you were looking at the view near his study in the mountains) before feeling your forehead and taking you away with the tug of his hand
lets say you get emotional when youre sick, so when you see albedo soft for you, you start to cry
he's obviously alarmed bc he doesnt know what emotions are-
just kidding, but he's mostly knowledged by the chemicals that go into how emotions are formed, having empathy is still a bit of a task for him
you'll start crying when he gave you some leftover soup from lunch and when he sits next to you, leaving a hand on your knee to quietly let you know that he's there
needing some emotional support, you place down the soup and give our cute piece of chalk a hug while feverishly murmuring nonsense about how much he means to you
he slightly chuckles, he's never seen you in this vulnerable state before
he'll place you in his lap, gently rocking you like he does w klee when she's sleepy
he'll even play w your hair to keep himself content
ik this man will get bored but he will do anything to make you feep better
sure he has his studies but he will continue to hold you until you sleep
when youre too sleepy to acknowledge anything he'll give you some meds before dreamland takes over
Bennett
has no idea what to do
also i only just realized how long these prompts are so i will try to shorten them a smidge
anyways he thinks he got you sick
he'll try to get you meds and then totally buys you the wrong ones
when he comes back to your bedside, he will be whimpering w sad eyes, but w one headpat from you and some encouragement he will try to get some soup
you will not be getting soup ;.;
you pretend to be asleep when he comes by w his homecooked meal lmao
I think he'll then ask his dads to help bc boi needs support
when you actually sleep, you'll wake up w him on the complete other side of the room so he doesnt wake you lol
he'll have a card for you that all your friends signed and his dads actually bought you some soup from Sara and got medicine from the church
you thank bennet when you see how hard he worked for this
boi cries just a lil bit👌🏻
Childe
he has a dozen billion siblings
he knows what to do but will pretend he doesnt
He'll try to give you meds w out a glass of water to wash it down until you bonk him in the head w your sword
but if you actually start getting delirious or smth will he stop the happy go lucky act
he'll try to keep you asleep all day; only waking you when he needs you to eat
some crackers n gingerale👍🏻 his go to
he'll also have some weird family remedy like those potatoes in your sock or a clove of garlic by your bedside
but in the end he will cuddle you if you need some emotional support of help sleeping
he'll tell you funny stories of his family or stupid convos he has had w the fatui to make you smile
once youre all better he will tease you for the next 2 wks that you needed prince charming to save you from your illness
dont be afraid to punch him -w your lips-
Diluc
king knows what you need
he's just always busy w his wine business and his stupid clients :/
mostly the maids will help you to health, yk with congestion and getting you to eat or at least relying on your cravings
I can see this man walking into your room late at night, he thinks youre asleep
he'll sit by your side and run his fingers through your hair and apologizing for not being there for you
he actually learned to make some soup himself just for you
and he bought some flowers on the way home
I can see him be more of a materialistic guy and you having to remind him that you have more than enough
if you 'wake up' when he's playing w your hair, he'll read you a story (like oml he has so many books) and hold you in a side hug
Gorou
one of my favs but sorry he will be a wreck
he will probs be coming back from work w kokomi, going over new strategies blah blah
when he sees you on his doorstep, burning up and in tears
first of all, you scared this man to death✋🏻 its late at night and he thought you were a hobo w one too many drinks
he'll sigh w relief and bring you inside once he realizes that you arent capablw of too much in your ill state

CHEER UP !
character: zhongli
genre: fluff, comfort
summary: just him giving some comfort.
Tumblr media
“zhongli?” you said, voice shaky as you approached your friend who was sitting peacefully at a tea spot.
he turned to look at you, eyes giving a concerned look once he saw you. it seemed like you’d been crying.
“oh, dear.” he began, placing his tea down in a hassle of getting up. “what is the matter?”
shaking your head, you refused to speak at the moment. you’d spent far too long wearing your voice out.
though he was worried, he accepted your silence and only hugged you. you sighed, noticing how his heartbeat was so calm.
so peaceful.
it almost made you feel such a peaceful warmth. something so genuine, it almost made you feel lightheaded.
as to not disturb you, zhongli moved slowly as to keep you calm. he’d hate to startle you now. his hands moved from around your waist, up your arms and to your face.
gently, his thumbs wiped away the tears on your face. he examined your face, all puffy and red eyed. “is there a reason you’ve been crying so badly?”
you shook your head, simply stating it was an occurring nightmare. one of the worst. he sighed solemnly. “understandable. do you feel you need anything?”
shaking your head, you tightened your grip around him and buried your face in his chest. “just a bit of comfort.”
he sighed, taking the answer you’ve given, allowing you to take as much time as needed to get your thoughts collected.
“would you like to sit down? or go home, rather?” he asked, slightly concerned on what shape you were in mentally.
you shook your head grinning. “im fine, zhongli.”
sighing, seemingly keeping his thoughts to himself, he took your answer for what it was. “if you insist.”

Celestial Blessing..
Request: How would the liyue characters react to their s/o receiving a vision! Vision type and why.. very plot heavy.
This is quite a long fic, hence why it took me long to write it! Please i would love feedback if you want to give some, re-blogs appreciated!
Characters: Zhongli, Xiao, Beidou ( I will release another part with Yelan and Ningguang within!)
Warnings: Injuries, may be a little graphic. Mentions of forced marriage and parental issues (Beidou’s). This is from my interpretation of how visions are received and may not be canon, will vary on the vision!
Terms you may not of heard of… Kwoon- A training hall for chinese martial arts, liyue is quite obviously inspired by china!
Tumblr media
Zhongli
Geo- Immovable will and determination, hardworking and fixated.
•Being a lead martial artist and founder of your rather large kwoon meant that you required not only strength but incredible knowledge of the arts and weaponry. Which you thought you fulfilled, if your lover’s opinion did not seem convincing enough. You continued with your family’s legacy and you wore your last name with utmost pride.
•Zhongli and yourself have been a couple for just nearly two years. The opening of your training hall was a joint effort between the both of you, zhongli often printing and scripting the agreement and safety contracts, terms and conditions along with all other formalities whilst you planned the architecture of your kwoon, along with the uniform you required your students to wear, ensuring their comfort was your utmost priority. About a month before the event, Zhongli suggested the idea of opening your training hall on your anniversary.
•‘My love, how do you like the idea of celebrating two ceremonies at once?’ Of course, his cryptic wording left you confused, however the more he explained his point, the more you liked it, clasping your arms around his waist and cherishing his warm loving embrace as he hugged you back, caressing your hair and peppering gentle kisses upon your forehead and cheeks.
•When the day arrived, you found yourself in a rather restless state of perfectionism, darting from place to place at the location and ensuring everything was errorless. Speech stand? Zhongli’s handling it. Refreshments? Upon the banquet table to the right. Decorations and banners? Prepared previously, am i forgetting something?
• The only person who could inflict serenity upon you was your husband himself, lightheartedly reprimanding you to remain tranquil and to take better care of yourself whilst fondling your temporarily calloused hands, guiding you to the stage provided by Yun-Han Opera Troupe.
• Delivering your speech was far from difficult with the support Zhongli gave you, constant reassurance allowed you to deliver it to a flawless standard. Many from the crowd cheered and encouraged you on, strings of melodic praises derived from their kind admiration-driven hearts. Your dearest’s sincere wistful smile accompanied by your gleaming irises was a sight to behold.
• Zhongli may be perceived as forgetful, yet he would never omit to anything related to you, his primary priority. Lightly latching onto your wrist, he whisked you away into a nearby stairwell, to which he deemed would provide all the privacy he wanted. You stared up at him in mild mystification, about to part your lips to question his bizzare actions yet you were stopped with one of his fingers gently upon your mouth, gesturing you to wait.
• From behind his lean form, he presented to you an intricate puzzle, a catalyst of sorts, complex rings of jade orbiting the main section of it, while it rotated and spun slowly in the breeze. Saying you were awestruck was a severe understatement, your eyes sparkled with infatuation at both the weapon and the handsome expression on your husband’s face.
• ‘My dearest, put your palms out before me.’ He requested. You obeyed his instructions, gradually opening your hands from the tight clasp they were in formerly. Zhongli placed the treasure in your hands, and watched how it’s spinning motion significantly increased until it was a blur, glowing in its glory just as cor lapis would do in the moonlight. ‘I knew you were the one the moment i laid my eyes on you, love.’ A burning sensation coursed through your palms, a surreal type of feeling you could not explain in words. There before you, was a golden vision.
• A geo vision. Shining and enlightening the dim alleyway, exactly matching the resplendent hue of Rex Lapis’ pupils, which now was reflected in you. The puzzle levitating to your side, metaphorically representing a promise of protection from the Lord of Geo himself, a faithful weapon. The largest of smirks plastered on your darling’s face, which you couldn’t help but cry delighted sobs into the nape of his neck.
Tumblr media
Xiao
Pyro- A burning, scalding passion, a fierce debate between the arts and fitting within society.
• Xiao first met you a year ago, battling and training against two ruin guards and a ruin hunter, casting an abundance of seals and spells at your disposal, trapping the entities and healing the damaged ley line attracting all of them. For a mortal, he was incredibly impressed, who gave you these adepti spells and casts? Xiao questioned himself, continuing to watch you, who was occupied with aiming arrows at numerous weak points, from a distance.
• He instantaneously materialised infront of the adeptus’ abode, unequipping his luminescent polearm before approaching the edge of the cliff, glancing around for a specific white crane, whom he found in the distance and began to approach.
•’General Alatus, is there something you may need? Why am i graced with your presence?’ Cloud retainer spoke, her formal, transcendent voice awaiting for an answer, azure sky-like wings glowing and rustling against her pure bodice of feathers. ‘Not particularly important, but i’ve noticed a young mortal utilising the arts of the adepti.’
•Cloud retainer followed his query with curt nod, elaborating on how you were her newest follower, a protector of the history of liyue and needed means to protect yourself with such valuable knowledge. Xiao’s misjudgement of you lead to him believing you were a human, when in fact, you were the preserver of Juyeun Karst. Blood of the Adepti coursed through your veins, a valuable life form not to be undervalued.
•From then on, you began to notice a omnipresent individual beside your master, who was willing to aid you with combat training when not protecting Liyue and continuing the legacy of the yakshas. You valued his help, expressing how you felt honoured and how this would boost your progress. What you may not have took note of was the short-lived smile which was present upon his lips, heart warming at the sincere praise.
• As your andragogy continued, so did your contact with your now lover. His unexpected gentleness and calmness brought you both closer and let him alleviate the state painstaking loneliness. He assisted you with combat while you educated him on humane emotions and social ques, which compelled him to focus on his own, the one fluttering in his heart.
•Months later, with your established relationship still flourishing, you found your skills with the bow has dramatically increased, utilising other weapons was a suggestion of Xiao’s, one which you felt uncomfortable to at first, yet decided it would be preferable to increase mastery. According to cloud retainer, you have reached peak performance, the ability to destroy large mechanical anomalies in less than minutes, and to seal ancient threats found spiralling in instability underground.
• The time for your final test has arrived. Careful planning and consideration lead you outside the once sealed domain of Morax’s Creation, Azhdaha. A fierce dragon with ruby bloodlusted vision, a entity with such a reputation that the most seasoned fighters shivered at the mere mention of. Why put you up against such an opponent, surely it would be dangerous? Well, risk is the only lead to development.
•Xiao’s calamitous aura was sensed by the reptilian creature from the moment he entered. The adeptus with such a disastrous, protective nature followed by a determined and ambitious one, gently grasping onto your wrist as if he was afraid regarding your safety, to which he was.
•’Such a powerful, dreading emanation, who dares enters my domain?’ Azhdaha thundered, remaining in his spot, demanding an immediate answer. Xiao knew already that this was one of the leviathan’s tactics, the use of threats to force one’s opponent into submission, even before the duel commenced.
•‘Your intimidation will not work on me, i have already previously discussed the conditions of this spar. If any terms shall be broken, you would wish a fate decided by Morax, rather than with me.’ Alatus retaliated, before turning to you and placing his hand onto your shoulder and the other below your chin, caressing your skin and though he did not speak, his message was clear. ‘If anything goes wrong, do not restrain from calling for me.’
• ‘Begin.’ He declared, and with that, Azhdaha spent no time at all breaking his temporary seals, and emitting a outcry of war and destruction. You swiftly reached for your bow, analysing the dragon’s every move, determining when to use which seals and where.
•A thunderous wave of energy oscillated across the ground, followed by a large leap into the air from you, aiming precisely for the geo insignia upon its chest. The arrows fired at incredible speed, piercing through the tough flesh of the creature, forcing a strained howl of anger from Azhdaha. It seemed it’s fury was released in outbursts of explosive icicles derived from its cryo infusion, targeted directly at you. Whilst you managed to avoid the first wave, the second batch took you by surprise.
•The biting, glacial blades stunned your movement, sending you plummeting into the soil beneath yourself, a cry of affliction pulled from your throat, leaving you immobile and wounded momentarily as the dragon approached you. Your admirer clenched so tightly onto his jaded spear that it was struggling to remain intact in one piece, you had previously assured him that if you really required his assistance, you would ask, which compelled him to stay put.
• Strings of vulgar curses left your mouth, summoning a catalyst to speed up your recovery before the entity reached you, prompting you to mount yourself upright. Once again, unsheathing your weapon. From what you could tell, Azhdaha seemed too consumed with his foul move and revenge that he ignored his unprotected limbs, revealing a chance almost too well timed to be real.
•Fuelled by the years of practice and sparring, you chanted a incantation before charging towards him at full agility. Behind your form was a grand seal, expeditiously approaching Azhdaha. A final gesture of your hand set the domain up into chaos.
• A monumental vermillion fulmination descended to the ground and emitted a force so great you lost your footing, stabbing an arrow to the ground to prevent being blown away. A harsh blood-curdling roar sounded, signifying the downfall of your opponent.
•Fog occupied the atmosphere, a maze of unpredictability and mystery. A minuscule faint glow guided you to the centre like a lighthouse to a boat lost at sea. The closer you got, the more luminous the crimson glow became. Kneeling down, You clutched the embellishment tightly within your hands. A blessing from the gods, an achievement so noticeable, your heart swelling with pride.
•A radiating pyro vision was cradled in your arms. Your form now could be seen by Xiao, who rapidly crouched beside you, he held your jaw, ensuring you looked up at him. Your lover had the warmest grin you had ever seen grace his face, to which you immediately hugged him. A soft gasp was heard from him, yet no complaints..
Tumblr media
Beidou
Anemo- The loss of those dearest to you for personal freedom and progression, individuality.
• Many who walked this land of liyue gazed at you, hearts dropping in sheer jealously. A rich socialite was what you were to these people, nothing else. A heartless mortal with a mind set on business and riches. In fact, you were quite the opposite, but why does it matter? Everything happens behind closed shutters and shadowy doors.
•Authoritative and superior were your parents, admired by all, associates with each end of Liyue’s exquisite corporations, right and left. Unbeknownst to citizenry, cynical and inconsiderate were their true faces. Many would consider you privileged, you’d call yourself unfaithful and hopeless, projections of your parent’s language inculcated into your brain.
• ‘We will not stand for such behaviour, do not dare tarnish our reputation with such problematic requests.’ They scolded, persuading you to do what they asked of you. Hopping from ‘buisness meetings’ when infact, they were arranged proposals.
•It just so happened that today was one of those events. Donning exquisite attire and elegance, much to your disliking. Gracefully seated within the outside quarter of Xinyue Kiosk, timorously searching the pedestrians below you for your 3rd proposal.
•An older man appeared, a crooked grin plastered on his faintly wrinkled profile, eyebrows furrowed in interest before situating right next to you. The sudden approach and confidence of this man made your ailing stomach churn even more, a nauseous feeling emerging from your throat. ‘So, I assume your parents have already introduced me as your..suitor?’ There was that feeling again, utter disgust, your windpipe seemed as if a pair of hands constricted your breathing, scrambling for an answer.
•Choking out a meek ‘excuse me, sir’ was enough of an excuse to hurry down the steps and through the back alley, avoiding the gaze of citizens from possibly questioning you. Gaining momentum, you sped down the harbour behind stalls as cautiously as one could in such regal clothing.
•One occurrence you initially thought was a mistake turned out to be your saviour. You collided straight into another person, gasping as you hit their perceived chest, spewing apologies profusely. Just as you were to begin escaping into the opposite direction, a hand grasped onto your wrist, pulling you back towards whoever gently yet firmly. You focused onto her appearance.
• ‘Hey! Where are you going? I haven’t…’ Her deep voice and rich accent trailing off. A brunette woman with concerned, fuchsia eyes, the other covered with a scarlet eyepatch. Her eyebrow raised with realisation, gazing down at you closely, watching the way your own pupils dilated in horror, frantically scattering and searching the surroundings but why? Oh…
•Her expression immediately softened, mouth slightly ajar, attempting to recollect her thoughts. Weren’t you the reputable, prestigious child of Liyue’s most affluent buisness partners? What were you doing in a place like this, even more so with such a petrified expression?
•’Calm down sweetheart, come with me for a bit..You seem too uneasy.’ Her soft, amiable tone soothing your racing heart, a gradual calming effect induced onto you. She surveyed the harbour, deciding where you take you as she held your quivering hand and drew circles onto them, her long nails pleasantly tracing patterns which pacified you.
•She sheltered and handled you as if you were a treasure to a pirate, precious and careful. Ultimately choosing to take you aboard the Crux, which was currently empty due to her crew being occupied with business affairs. Every small considerate smile she gave you made your heart flutter, faint shades of blush dusting your complexion.
•Removing you from publicity, she guided you to her deck and to her cabin. Within it laid a medium sized bed, adorned with soft bedsheets and pillows, a desk with an abundance of organised stamped papers in stacks, with a few clothing racks and luscious carpet. She gestured you to rest upon the bed, putting a pillow under your head, as you laid down, ignoring your polite protests. She momentarily left the room.
•What was this feeling? Such warmth and peace, contrasted with the flittering of your pulse. A quiet squeak of the door and sound of rushed heels against the wooden deck alerted you and pulled you from your thoughts. You knew her as Captain Beidou, partly from associations she had with your parents and others from her appearance, fitting the strong figure of a mighty woman with a carefree benevolent heart.
•’ Believe it or not, dear, i do know who you may be and i have deduced what kind of situation you are caught up in.. yeah, not a pleasant one yet i still hope you can open up to me? Please?’ Beidou comforted, placing her palm on your forehead, sweeping the strands of stray hair to the side. You emitted a small sigh, gradually giving such details, you could trust her. Who wouldn’t?
•’I do not want to cause additional issues, plus your parents know me quite well, why don’t i drop you off to your estate, hmm?’ The captain suggested, awaiting a response. Regardless of how you arrived, you would be in dire trouble. You uttered a small agreement, lifting yourself from the bed. ‘I’ll deal with him, don’t worry.’
•A arm latched onto your own, encasing you in a protective stance, she walked you back, stopping occasionally to check up on you. You may not of known so, but your exhaustion worried her deeply. Once you reached your estate, the guards situated outside, looking rather exhausted and latching onto their polearms for support, swiftly corrected their posture and bombarded you with questions. Beidou intercepted their questions with a answer of her own. ‘She was not feeling well, I am here to bring her back to her parents.’ She resonated, rubbing her index finger along your cheek affectionately, a curt nod to the guards before spinning on her heel and retreating back to the harbour.
•Days of lying in complete rest at home told you that Beidou’s lie deceived your parents perfectly, for once they treated you with adequate care as a person, not a utility. You missed her dearly, yearning for her comfort the longer you stayed at home.
•You were interrupted one morning by a guard briskly walking into your room to leave a letter in your hands. ‘I’m doing you a huge favour, please don’t mess this opportunity up.’ was all he said, shutting the door behind him. Sliding your fingers underneath the envelope to reveal the letter. The handwriting was gorgeous, professionally cursive and legible.
•’ The Crux will depart at midnight, i hope to see you aboard it, with me. This situation you are in clearly is not what you desire, i can help you build a new life elsewhere.’ Stunned was what you felt now. A new life? This could solve all your issues, you could be away from your parents, away from your troubles and finally be free.
• Dusk had fallen upon Liyue, luminescent lanterns and burning stars lit up the night, guiding and coaxing those to admire its beauty. You wore your combat uniform, the golden trimmed sleeves that flared matched the torso and bottom half. You sneaked out of the room, heading directly to the unarmed museum of your estate. Inching the door open and peering in, the coast was empty of guards, you slipped in through the doors and glanced around.
•Assortments of family heirlooms, categorised in a organised order. You knew exactly where to go, straight towards the weapons, which you took your time admiring, elegant catalysts, worn yet precious swords and the sharpest polearms. Weapons were essential, especially these, they could have multiple uses, if you were short on mora you could even sell them. You latched your fingers around the smooth lapis polearm, tracing the intricate patterns around it, lifting it from the wooden stand and ultimately deciding this would be what you took. Lightweight yet deadly, a perfect combination.
•You swiftly escaped through the window to your right, dropping down onto the street, bolting towards the docks with the night concealing any traces you left. You reached the familiar ship, using the ladder to hoist yourself up into it, catching your breath and looking around for Beidou. A few calls of her name and she noticed your presence, quickly pacing towards you, swinging her arm around your neck.
• A glad smirk occupying her features, grasping your hand and bringing you up onto the higher level of the deck. She gestured you to sit on the floor with her under the makeshift canopy, brushing your hair with her fingers and fluttering a gentle kiss on your nose.
•The grand cruise abruptly lifted its anchors, leaving the docks and sailing further away. You turned back to her, eyes tearful and wrapping your arms around her neck. You allowed your tears to flow, cascading your face and when you left Beidou’s hold, onto your hands as you bowed your head with a solemn smile.
• Your final tear dropped into the palm of your hands, followed by an intense gust of wind, glancing up you saw a firefly, it’s verdant trail descending to engulf it’s surroundings with blinding light. It circled your hands and eventually took its own concluding flicker, a blazing teal luminosity burning up, inducing a shock of ignition through your nerves, eyes glowing a deep turquoise. When you gained your sight back, you turned to your lap.
•There was a Vision, placed into your hands by the God of Freedom, in all its glory. Caressing the smooth glass-like orb, bringing it up to your ear, rushing gales heard within the distance, laughs of your lover and quiet sobs belonging to you. A pair of hands encased your face, drying away the remnants of teardrops.

[read it on ao3]
“Do you remember how we first met?” Ningguang is careful about the way she asks the question, her hands balled into fists against Beidou’s bare chest, her head pillowed against her shoulder. Beidou’s fingers graze up and down her back, it’s the only way Ningguang knows she isn’t sleeping.
Those fingers draw to a stop in the middle of her spine, Beidou’s thumb digging in without the force it would take to actually hurt.
“You threw a rock at my head.” Beidou answers simply, “Is that what you’re thinking about with such a serious look on your face?” They’d been children then, not that either of them got much of a chance to be children. Beidou had been hellbent on her own survival and Ningguang had walked all over Liyue, from the harbor to wharf, selling her wares just so her family might have a little extra money. Ningguang hadn’t thought about why she decided to throw a rock at Beidou back then, she just felt compelled to do it. Something that Ningguang hadn’t had a word for back then had masked itself and paraded around as childhood cruelty.
“I threw a rock at you because I thought you were pretty and I wanted you to look at me.” The truth doesn’t come out easily, her eyes focusing hard on the expanse of skin between where she lays and Beidou’s shoulder. She can still faintly pick out where she’d sunk her teeth into Beidou earlier, a punishment for straying so far for so long. She doesn’t expect Beidou to snort and laugh, but she isn’t surprised either. The only reason she still sits up on her elbows is because she knows Beidou expects her to.
Ningguang lets Beidou follow after her, the blankets falling away from the both of them as Beidou sits up and holds Ningguang against her chest, one arm draped over her back while the other hand brushes hair from Ningguang’s face. Ningguang can’t stop herself, she’s already reaching for Beidou with both hands outstretched. “I thought you were dirty and loud and I didn’t want you to look at anyone but me.” Beidou’s cheeks are warm in Ningguang’s hands, her thumbs tracing over her lips. 
She’s always been possessive and selfish, but both of those things took new levels when it came to Beidou. The rest of the world could look, Ningguang wouldn’t care just so long as Beidou never looked at anyone else. Men and other women alike, none of them were allowed to have the kind of warmth Beidou looks at her with, it was Ningguang’s to keep like a hidden treasure. 
Beidou’s fingers splay wide against her back, tangling in Ningguang’s hair and tugging at the ends as she’s pulled in, their lips crushing together. It lacks the desperation and the heat from before, but Ningguang still moans into it. She can still taste herself on Beidou’s tongue. She’d ridden Beidou’s face for what seemed like forever as a punishment for sailing so far away from her reach. Beidou had proven her apology by digging her fingers into Ningguang’s thighs, holding her in place long after Ningguang had granted her forgiveness. Beidou had left Ningguang aching and bruised. Beidou took Ningguang into her hands and made her tender in ways no one else could. Ningguang knows she should hate her for it, for knowing her so well and so completely, but it only makes her want to keep Beidou closer. It only makes her more selfish.
Ningguang sinks her teeth into Beidou’s bottom lip to prove it, shifting herself over until she straddles Beidou’s thigh. “NingNing’er,” Beidou teases, a drop of blood clinging to her lips before Ningguang leans in to lick it away, “you’re acting like I’ve ever so much as glanced at anyone else.” Ningguang hates that nickname, she hates that Beidou uses it so fearlessly, she hates that Beidou is already dragging her back and forth over her thigh before she can object. “I’m only interested in treasures, after all. You said so yourself, didn’t you?”
“Liar.” Ningguang sighs and wraps her arms around Beidou’s neck, pressing herself closer. She grinds herself harder against Beidou’s thigh as a punishment, wrenching the control away from her all too quickly and biting her own lip. “You brought back that girl from Inazuma and acted like you were over the moon for her.” They hadn’t been children back then, but they still hadn’t been old enough to know better just yet. They’d still been young enough to play games of the heart with each other. Ningguang can’t claim full innocence either, she’d played with Beidou more than enough all on her own.
Two of Beidou’s fingers drag slow, heavy circles over Ningguang’s clit as a grin blossoms on her face, “I forgot about that. You looked like you wanted to claw her eyes out.” The memory of Beidou pulling that stunt felt as if it were a lifetime ago now, it was before Beidou was a captain, it was shortly after she’d started making her way, Ningguang hadn’t been the Tianquan then, either. A kiss, light and feathery, lands against Ningguang’s cheek as a moan slips past her lips. 
“I was going to.” Ningguang says it without an ounce of guilt. That girl had known what she was doing, she’d even had the audacity to look smug while she hung over Beidou, her arms around her waist rather than around her neck the way Beidou preferred. She’d done everything wrong and Beidou had still brought her all the way back to Liyue. “What were you thinking?” There’s hostility in her voice as Ningguang catches Beidou’s wrist and drives her hand forward, needing to feel Beidou inside of her. Beidou’s thumb picks up the abandoned post her fingers left, the three appendages working in tandem to soothe Ningguang’s temper. 
“You broke my heart, Ning. What else was I supposed to do?” The wound is old, long since scabbed and scarred over, but there’s still something tender and painful in Beidou’s eye when Ningguang pulls back to look at her, her hips going still and her arms tensing around Beidou’s neck. It gives Beidou the opportunity to snatch control away from her yet again and push her down onto her back. Ningguang spreads her legs and wraps her thighs as tightly around Beidou’s waist as she can manage. It’s a silent plea for Beidou to stay, to not get up and walk away from her, for Beidou to stay where Ningguang can reach over and feel her too warm body and lay her head on her chest.
Beidou’s fingers and thumb are still damp with Ningguang’s slick as Beidou wraps her hands around Ningguang’s wrists, pinning them to the bed while she looks down at Ningguang. The expression on Beidou’s face would be unreadable to anyone else, but to Ningguang the hurt and desire mix into something tumultuous, like crashing waves during a storm, like a hurricane about to deliver itself onto the shores of their hearts. “I lived for your letters. At every port we stopped at, I hoped that you’d written to me and that you’d sprayed the paper with your perfume so I wouldn’t have to try and remember what you smelled like when I held you in my arms.” Ningguang had convinced herself that she was the cruel one, but what other name is there for the way Beidou grinds them against each other? “I thought about you day and night, about how we were going to get married just as soon as we’d saved up enough mora.” 
Ningguang can’t help the way her body jolts in response to Beidou’s weight against her, moans ripping out of her faster than she dares stop them. “Beidou,” Ningguang tries, but Beidou interrupts her with a snap of her hips and the tightening of her hands. Ningguang thought she knew what agony was, she thought it was waiting through storm after storm, hoping against hope that Beidou hadn’t been dragged to the bottom of the sea. She thought agony was repeatedly peeking through a door she’d slammed shut.
“I knew your mother hated me, that she thought I would ruin you. I just never expected you to agree with her. I never thought your next letter would say that you couldn’t marry me. I never thought you would send your engagement necklace back.” It hadn’t been easy, Ningguang hadn’t taken off the pendant since Beidou draped it around her neck. The noctilucous jade had been heavy, but it had been Ningguang’s prized possession once. She thought sending it back to Beidou would kill her, or if it didn’t, it would kill Beidou instead. The thought alone almost made her keep it.
Beidou’s throat catches, dragging out something between a moan and a sob as she hangs above Ningguang, her breasts starting to bounce as she picks up the pace of her grinding. “You wouldn’t even tell me why, you sent back all my letters without even opening them, Ningguang.” They never talked about it. It was an unspoken agreement, it was the kinder thing for both of them, at least Ningguang had thought so. “I couldn’t even get you to see me when I got back.” Beidou’s words get tighter and tighter the closer she drags the both of them to orgasm, her grip on Ningguang’s wrists loosening and then tightening again at intervals.
“What… What did you do with the pendant after… after I sent it back to you?” Ningguang asks, breathless but still desperate to know. She’d always wondered, but she’d never been able to ask. Not until now.
“I threw it into the ocean.” There’s an angry edge to Beidou’s voice, angry enough that Ningguang thinks it might be a lie, that the pendant might still be laying in the bottom of Beidou’s desk drawer aboard the Alchor, waiting for the day it would be returned to Ningguang’s hands. “I was too drunk to care.”
Wrestling her hands free, Ningguang drags Beidou down for a proper kiss, before the anger has a chance to sink in fully. Beidou would stay away out of spite if it did. Ningguang couldn’t bear that. She barely survived it all those years ago.
Her kiss is Beidou’s undoing, it often is, but Ningguang clings to Beidou through it, refusing to let her pull away again. Her nails dig into Beidou’s back and her scalp as Ningguang comes hard again, she’d already lost track of how many times Beidou had brought her to orgasm, though her mind still goes thick and sluggish as if it were the first time.
For a long moment, Ningguang wonders if Beidou has gone sullen, her eye angry and her mouth refusing to open, but then she feels it. Something hot and wet burns against her shoulder and Ningguang tightens her arms where they lay instinctively.
She would marry Beidou now. She would wear the green and gold wedding robes and the heavy crown atop her head. Ningguang would buy Beidou three more ships as a wedding present because she could. But the Beidou who would hold Ningguang’s hands in her own and ask her in a soft voice, both of her eyes shining, if she would marry her is gone. That guileless Beidou lays at the bottom of the ocean with the pendant she’d worked day and night for three months to buy.
Ningguang had drowned her and then she’d fallen in love with Beidou all over again. She’d accepted and loved this new Beidou who’d never let their knees brush while she asked for her hand. Before she can stop them, tears spill out of her own eyes and drip onto the top of Beidou’s head, her breathing turning loud and rough.
“Ning?” Beidou calls, her voice wobbly, but strong as she fights past Ningguang’s arms. “Oh fuck, Ningguang, I’m…” Beidou starts, but trails off, her hands reaching for Ningguang before stopping and restarting again. They didn’t do this with each other, it was how Ningguang liked it. Beidou’s hands, callused and wonderful, find Ningguang’s cheeks and wipe away the tears. 
If she had any sense left, Ningguang would push Beidou away and kick her out for the night, but she can’t, she might die if she had to watch Beidou’s back get smaller and smaller as she walked away from her again. Instead, against her better judgment, Ningguang leans into Beidou’s hands and breathes hard to try and pull herself together, her eyes squeezed shut. 
“That girl from Inazuma,” Ningguang starts, her chest still heaving, “it wasn’t because you…loved her, was it?” They aren’t young anymore, Ningguang won’t beat around the bush. She forces herself to say the word. “You only carried on with her because you wanted to bother me, didn’t you?” No matter how old she is, the memory still makes Ningguang feel juvenile enough to froth with jealousy. 
Beidou could have done more with that girl from Inazuma, she could’ve played the game longer. She could have let that girl lean in closer and kiss her neck like Ningguang did, she could have sat her in her lap at Wanmin Restaurant like she used to talk Ningguang into doing and she could have held her tight around the middle, but she hadn’t. The second Ningguang had stormed over, cold indifference in her eyes towards the girl, Beidou had let herself be dragged off and pushed against the wall of some alley. Ningguang had intended to argue and raise her voice, she thought she was shaking with anger, but she’d collapsed against Beidou’s chest and realized too late that she’d been shaking with envy and heartbreak all at once. 
“I don’t even remember her name, Ning.” Beidou answers and Ningguang can’t find a single lie in the depths of her eye. It shouldn’t soothe her as much as it does, but a knot works itself loose from between Ningguang’s shoulders. “She wasn’t you, that’s all that mattered to me back then, and it’s all that matters to me right now.”
The girl’s name had been Haruka, and she’d thrown a fit when she caught the two of them kissing as though they were the only two sources of air for each other in all of Teyvat. Ningguang doesn’t feel an ounce of guilt for keeping tabs on her even after she’d gone back to Inazuma.
“How fickle the great Captain Beidou is.” Ningguang says, her thumb tracing over Beidou’s bottom lip as it swells. She’d been cruel, but she knows Beidou can handle it, she knows how much Beidou looks forward to it. 
Never again would Ningguang deprive her of it.

You’re Safe With Me || Beidou
Genre - Fluff
SFW
Gender Neutral
Warnings - None
Tumblr media
If there was one thing you loved about Beidou, it was her motherly qualities. She always had this aura that made you feel like you could tell her anything. The two of you were practically parents to Kazuha.
You were sitting on one of the Crux’s towers, crying alone. In fact, it was sunset, the crew was currently having dinner downstairs.
“Hold on, where’s Y/N?” Beidou asked as she held bottles of wine for the crew. “I haven’t seen them all day.” One of the crew replied. Beidou grew slightly worried. Kazuha was really the only one who had a clue as to where you went, after all, he is a very observant young man.
“I believe they went to sit up on the tower.” Kazuha told his mother figure. Beidou thanked the younger male and went upstairs. “Y/N! Dinner’s ready!” She yelled loud enough for you to hear from the tower. It was quiet, and she heard your sobs. She hadn’t heard them all day because of the whole crew hanging out on the deck all day.
She climbed up to the tower herself to see you. “Y/N? What’s wrong?” She asked softly as she placed a hand on your back. This was kind of unlike her. Sure she was motherly, but she usually had much more energy. “It’s nothing.” You replied wiping your tears. “Come on, Y/N, you can tell me.” She said with a concerned look in her eyes. You turned towards her and broke. You couldn’t hide it anymore. You were scared. She took you into her arms. She didn’t understand without you telling her because she wasn’t as observant as your son figure was, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t care. “I really don’t know why, but I’ve been really scared recently.” You said, as you cried.
She kissed your forehead. “That’s alright, it’s ok to feel scared.” She said. “Even I get scared sometimes, but it always ends up fine!” She picked up your chin to face her. “I’ll protect you, you’re safe with me, so don’t worry.” She’d say with a big smile. Her protectiveness and selflessness was always a great quality. “I promise!” She said excitedly as she kissed your nose.
“Come on, let’s go have dinner before it gets cold.” She said, holding her hand out for you to grab.
Tumblr media
I’m sorry this is so awful, writing for Beidou was a step out of my comfort zone because I’ve never written for her and I didn’t know where to start because I don’t really know her personally as well as other characters.

Hey sweets<3 can I request hcs of Beidou (and Arlecchino if you write for her) finding out her s/o is the lost Princess of Khaenri'ah?
Hey Darling <3 Such a unique request I hadn’t expected myself to write about two of my favorite lesbians (fanon) yet BUT thank you for bringing me the opportunity to. I hope you like it :)
[ request ]
m.list
Tumblr media
Ship: Beidou x Feminine Reader, Arlecchino x Fem Reader
CW: angst, comfort, fluff, mentions of death, slight Yandere in Arlecchino's
Notes: Dude ngl my dumbass misread and thought it said oneshots not hcs and i was balls deep into a story when i went back up and was like welp. Shit. LMAODNEKENE
Beidou:
Although the Captain of the Crux Fleet is one of the most accepting and understanding people you know, telling her was giving you so much fucking anxiety
You’d lied to her about your origins, contradicting your promise to be Honest to her
You loved the cute nicknames she had for you, but you couldn’t stand being called her princess anymore with all the conflicting feelings in your heart, plaguing your mind when she used it at night
The time of day that allowed your mind to wander too far from your sanity
It wasn’t a surprise, but a huge weight off your shoulders when you told her your past
Crumbling to the ground of your shared bedroom as she followed suit, cradling your sobbing form in her arms as you babbled incoherently about your trauma
How you were meant to protect your people as Beidou did hers, yet could do nothing but see everyone and everything you knew burn to the ground
you were powerless against the divine holiness of Gods
And you hated yourself every day for it
Constant reminders of your responsibilities as Monarch, the random surges and lust for power and righteousness when you gave orders
Anything from how to deck the ship or the pirate’s positions on the battlefield. You felt that power, it made you feel good. For that short moment you were the Princess of Khaenri’ah, rightful heir to the Khaenri’ahn Throne. Rightful queen of the godless humans and protector of your realm
Yet looking around you..
Ah, right, you were any other person now. Simple and common as the people you protected
Once, at least
Beidou listened to every word, and when you were done, wiping tears away to look at her carefully, you could see the sadness and tears in her own eyes
She understood you, she felt your pain and it made you cry more
From that day forward, she was more gentle and patient with you when out and about in Liyue or Inazuma
Beidou paid more attention and realized the way you looked longingly and sadly from a high point on land downwards into civilization and realized you were reminiscing
And you were eternally grateful to her for all the times she brought you back to the here and now, with her. Not the fire and blood of 500 years ago to a people you could only remember, and nothing more.
She would make your days special and happy, nothing had to be grandiose or fancy, simple things like giving you a massage, breakfast in bed etc
She always did, though the captain made an effort to show you how smitten she was every chance she got
Because unknowingly, that night as she held you protectively as if you would too burn away, she made a promise
That she would do everything in her power to ensure you wouldn’t loose her, and the people you loved
She would protect your kin and take extra precautions when on land
Beidou could not handle to see you so destroyed
She wouldn’t allow it. It would be too much for you
So for as long as you gave her with your heart, she would nurture it until one day she would be too old in comparison to your eternally cursed, young and unwithering complexion to take care of you
Tumblr media
Arlecchino:
You were number 2 of the Fatui Harbingers. Quite a High rank, and somehow higher then that of The Knave.
Even when you two began dating, you hadn’t revealed to her why
She, by strength believed to be stronger then you and depending on who you asked, would tell you who was more cunning
The only person who knew of your origins was Her Majesty The Tsarista and Pierro, Number 1 of the Harbingers
It wasn't like you had to tell Pierro, he just kind of already knew
How could The Jester forget the Harlequin who ruined his original plans for Khaenri'ah
Who he had blamed on bad days for the destruction of his nation
You only silently took his anger, you understood it
But Pierro Also knew that you only had so much say in political power
This unspoken beef between the old man and her girlfriend was... unfathomable to her
I mean sure she was not one to like him to begin with but to witness firsthand his distaste for you was...fucking weird
Weather it be lack of skill in digging into your past or because she didn't have the balls to do that to one human she cared about you would never know
Arlecchino decided to put it aside and ignore it, you hadn't told her the truth because ain't no fucking way Pierro just has a bone to pick with the Harbinger a rank below his for no reason
In all Honesty, sometimes she wishes she never found out
It didn't make her love you any less
But it made her weaker
A word that hadn't been in her vocabulary since her joining of the Fatui
She was known and disliked by Childe to have no permanent loyalty to anyone. Her promises and honesty wavered towards whoever benefited her more
Yet when it came to you, she would be the one to act a clown to make you happy, and keep you safe
So when You pulled Arlecchino aside one day after an argument with Pierro who was across the coffin of your fallen friend, La Signora, the fair lady
Arlecchino could not stand it and demanded you he honest with her
To which you responded, more like screamed for her to get out of the cathedral. Though your face was hidden from the rest, she saw your look that meant for her to go somewhere else in order to get her answers
You spoke quietly but with determination
"I am The Lost Princess of Khaenri'ah. I was first in line to my family's throne. I both failed in my duty as monarch and protector of my nation."
She stared at you with wide eyes, her hands curling into tight fists.
"Pierro dislikes me because he believes it is my fault for the loss of our people, i won't blame him. But he too, did not succeed in convincing my father to change the order of things in order to survive. He can't blame me for everything. If I, his daughter and first heir got neglected what did HE think he was gonna do?!" You yelled angrily
Taking a deep breath you apologized and Arlecchino pulled you close after ensuring no one could see you
Oh yeah, your fruity relationship was a secret
not because of homophobia, the fatui could care less who was the Fuckee of choice was to Arlecchino
She just knew that someone would pull some dumb shit in order to either piss her off or for personal gain
The only collective thing anyone in this damn group agreed on was disliking The Balladeer, besides that it was a free for all deal
which meant someone here could harm you to gain acess to Arlecchino's secrets and weaknesses and have no repercussion
a curse and a blessing as a result of absolute authority from the Tsarista to The Fatui
From then on and like never before, Arlecchino would make sure you would not be in danger
Like ever
She held your hands more tightly when you walked down the hall or in public
The Knave pulled your hood closer to your cold-bitten pink cheeks to disguise your beauty
Arlecchino was more on the defensive side when Pierro even dared to look at you the wrong way
You were untouchable and precious
only for her to have and love
Her pretty princess, her only true queen as much as she would have to say otherwise in the presence of the Cryo Archon
You were hers and she was yours
Everyone and everything else could burn to the ground
A thousand more nations could be smothered into dust and Arlecchino would not care as long as you were by her side
and no matter which you were promised to, she would whisper in your ear sweet reassurences that it wasn't your fault. Nor your intention
weather you were the sweet and caring type or as cunning and ruthless as her, she looked at you with a set of wings and a halo upon your pretty head
Hypocritical yes
But as long as your smile warmed her cold days and your safety was most ensured
The world itself could burn down, she held her own in the palm of her hands each night she held your face to her own
As long as her world was safe, nothing else mattered
No one else mattered

This is your 🔥anon signing in! This time it is a request, Yelan, Kokomi, Beidou and Shenhe finding their S/O tortured cruelly? If it'd be too much trouble, please feel free to delete it! Also, I hope you are doing fine and everything goes as you want, have a nice day/night, my favorite writer! ^^
hi, 🔥anon! you're so sweet, thank you!! please enjoy
Tumblr media
Yelan, Kokomi, Beidou, Shenhe x gender neutral!reader when they find you after you've been tortured angst, hurt comfort?, injuries/blood/etc described
Tumblr media
-Beidou would be shocked since you had been gone for months, she had been worrying about you the whole time. She feels a bit at fault for not being able to find you earlier.
-Beidou takes it upon herself to get you back to Liyue safely but she's not one to pry about what happened until you're safe and comfortable with talking about it.
-She takes you straight to Bubu Pharmacy. She's almost relieved that The Crux would be docked here in Liyue for a while otherwise she might have postponed leaving.
-Although she wants to know how this had happened, she lets you take your time to heal from the gruesome injuries that had been inflicted upon you. More often than not Baizhu or Qiqi had to ask her to leave so they could treat you.
-She has to admit, she does get a little worried if you end up sleeping for a while to recharge and regain your strength back as well and ends up talking to you a bit while you're asleep.
-" Oh, Archons, (name). Who coulda' done this to you!? "
~
Beidou on the outskirts of The Harbor, taking a stroll around in the warm midday sun. It had only been a few hours, maybe more, since the Crux had docked. You couldn't tell from just looking at her but she certainly did have a lot on her mind. Specifically you.
You had been missing for months without a trace and Beidou had always hoped you were there to greet her when she got back from each voyage but you weren't. It was starting to really get to her, the voice in the back of her head saying you were dead.
" ...B- Bei-dou..? " A hoarse voice called out which was followed by what sounded like a congested cough. She looked around, confused for a moment, not seeing anything she just muttered to herself.
" Must be hearin' things. " As she began to step forward, the same cough caught her attention again, this time she followed the noise. The familiar face she had missed was now bloody and bruised. " Oh, Archons, (name). Who coulda' done this to you?! "
Tumblr media
-Kokomi is a worrier. She was so worried about you that when a soldier had come to tell her that they had found you all battered and bruised, she just had to stop everything she was doing to go see you.
-Even though she's a healer, she treats your wounds manually for a little while before using her vision. You never asked her why but you thought it might be better not to.
-She's always so gentle and keeps you near her at all times just in case you need something. She always gets you anything you need and always feels bad.
-Kokomi feels bad because she wasn't able to keep you safe and it makes her feel terrible since she had made a promise to do so. She doesn't jump to conclusions when you start to open up about it, she simply listens.
-" I.. I see.. I just wish I could have been there to keep you safe.. "
~
As the Divine Priestess she had work. Lot's of it. She was hoping it'd distract her from you. How you were gone without a trace. How you were gone because she couldn't keep you safe. The work was her distraction.
" Your Excellency! A soldier has just informed me that (name) was found on the outskirts of the island with terrible injuries! "
She had never gotten up from her chair so quickly before. " Please, bring me to them. " The soldier nodded, leading the way outside to where you were leaning on the shoulder of a soldier. You coughed but managed a small wave to her. " Oh archons.. Come here, (name). I'll heal you up.. "
Tumblr media
-Shenhe shows no emotion at all on the outside but is so glad you're safe and in her arms again. She had looked for you from dawn till dusk and only had to stop looking when Cloud Retainer stopped her.
-She's not sure what mental, physical, or emotional tolls you've taken and resorts to Cloud Retainer for assistance who had suggested some slightly odd methods but ultimately Shenhe decided to go to Liyue Harbor.
-With her carrying you, she kept checking to make sure she wasn't hurting you in any way. Shenhe would take you to Bubu Pharmacy, hearing from others that it was a good place to go for healing.
-In the end, Shenhe does her best to follow Doctor Baizhu and Qiqi's instructions to take care of you, almost to the point of memorization and will continue it for the exact amount of days.
-" We are almost there. Does this way of carrying you hurt? "
~
You saw Bubu Pharmacy's entrance as Shenhe carried you on her back. Your legs felt so weak and your arms could barely hold onto her even when she was the one keeping you up.
" You know.. You didn't need to carry me, Shenhe. " You whispered to her, throat in desperate need of some sort of hydration.
" It was necessary, your legs were shaky. Cloud Retainer said I shouldn't let you walk. " She responded simply before adding. " Is this position uncomfortable for you? "
" No no, that's not it. I just- " You were cut off by a cough and then Shenhe speaking.
" We are almost there, please don't try to talk anymore. I don't want you to be anymore hurt than you already are. " She looked down, a little sadness was evident in her eyes.
" ...Alright "
Tumblr media
-Yelan would have found you through interrogations. She'd rule out any suspects and interrogate the ones she found the most likely to have done something to you.
-Even though it had been months and you were assumed to be dead, Yelan wanted to at least see you one last time. She couldn't accept that you had died without a trace.
-When she finally had a gotten information, she was almost relieved that she could go find you even if it had a slim chance of being true but once she found you, she was beyond happy.
-Happy that you were alive, not so happy about your physical state. She had the Milileth accompany her to the spot in case they were needed so it was a big help for her to be able to take you back to Liyue.
-" Oh, thank the archons- you're alive! "
~
" That hurts, Yelannn- " You muttered, your strength depleted as she picked you up to help you stand. " My legs hurt like hell... "
Yelan looked at you for a moment before she spoke. " How about I carry you back to the Harbor? It'll be faster. " To which you hummed in agreement to her offer before being scooped up into her arms. " Does this hurt? "
" Mmm.. I'll be fine.. " You looked up at her, just wanting to be back at the Harbor safely.
" Alright, just tell me if you need me to stop. I'll get you to Bubu Pharmacy as quick as possible. " You mumbled an 'okay' in response, fighting the urge to close your eyes to get at least some sort of rest. " Hey- don't fall asleep on me. You have to stay awake. "
" Fine... " You let out a sigh and leaned your head on Yelan's chest as she kept walking in the dimming sunlight towards the harbor.

Genshin Women Take You Shopping
Modern AU - Gender Neutral Reader (No pronouns) - Platonic ft. Ningguang, Beidou, Yae Miko, Kokomi, Keqing, Amber, Eula
Tumblr media
"You really don't have to do this Ningguang, I'm fine, I swear," You tried to excuse yourself, but felt it was no use either way.
"Come on Y/n! You deserve something fancy every now and then." Beidou reassured, pushing you through the entrance of an expensive name-brand store by your shoulders.
Today was a monumental occasion, to say the least, or that was certainly how it felt when the girls announced it. Amber, ever attentive to her friend's emotions, had seen the late nights, the endless cups of pure caffeine, and the hair-pulling stress you had been experiencing recently. Once she discussed her concerns for your health with the other ladies, Ningguang had the idea to spoil you with some retail therapy.
So here you were at the largest mall in the area, the bubble tea Kokomi bought you in one hand and a posse of fashionable women acting as your team of personal stylists around you. In front of the group, Miko, Keqing, and Eula stood before the map, planning a route to take you along.
"Well then, shall we?" Miko mused to the group.
"I believe an anticlockwise approach will allow the most efficient trip, starting from the top floor and making our way down." Keqing proposed, evidently taking her job very seriously no matter the task.
"Sounds great. Y/n, are you ready to go?" Kokomi asked, causing the group of women to look at you. You smiled, nodding at their enthusiasm, however subdued or evident the emotion was in each of them.
"Ooo! This top would look amazing on you Y/n!" Amber pressed a light top to your chest. Nodding in the confidence of her own choice.
"Yes, and this jacket would complement it nicely, wouldn't you say?" Eula presented a cropped jacket, the paneled colours matching Amber's choice.
"I believe these would suit the bottoms Keqing found earlier," Kokomi identified, matching an outfit in her head.
The women lead you back to the dressing rooms, where Beidou and Miko sat patiently waiting for your return. They had overtaken an entire stall in the corner for your use, the small wall hooks already flowing with garments of varying styles. The range surprised you as much as the volume did, from casual wear to formal, a rainbow of options laid awaiting your approval.
"Welcome back. I think we've gathered more than enough material to play dress-up" Miko prompts.
"Where are Ningguang and Keqing?" Amber asked, noticing the mentioned women were absent from the party.
"They're off searching for accessories," Beidou informed.
"I'd suggest you don't attempt to predict my movements Captain," Ningguang said as she and Keqing approached the dressing room. "I may just surprise you." The duo shared a smirk, as Keqing approached you, holding a simple, but elegant chain necklace.
"Here, we found this and believed you would take a liking to it," Keqing held out the jewelry, allowing for your scrutiny. You took it carefully from her hands, inspecting the beautiful piece with awe. The women around you gasped as tears began to fall slowly from your eyes, Amber quickest to come hold your arm in comfort.
"What's the matter Y/n?" Kokomi asked softly.
"Is it the necklace? If so, please know I am happy to remove it from your sight immediately-" Ningguang offered.
"No, no the necklace is beautiful," You choked, clasping it with care. Eula approached your front, carefully lifting your head from its bow and locking your gaze in her own.
"Y/n, please know we are here for you, and you alone. Your strife, no matter how small, will dissipate under my wrath, our wrath, should you only give the word," You smiled at Eula's comfortingly Eula-like words.
"It's just, I haven't been treated out like this in a long, long time, if ever," You began, attempting to wipe the tears from your face. "And you're all so kind to me, I still can't believe you're willing to go so far just to make me happy. I'm so lucky to have you all, and I want you to know how much I love you all,"
Without warning, your body was surrounded by the warm arms of a half-a-dozen women, many with tears in their own eyes.
"Shoot Y/n, you even got me crying," Beidou chuckled, wiping a tear from her eye as her other hand squeezed your shoulder, her arm encompassing the group in the wide hug.
"We love you soooo much!" Amber was crying the hardest of the group, squishing her teary face against your unoccupied shoulder, Eula coming up just behind her to support you both in your tears.
"You are always welcome to come to us if you ever need a break, you are entitled to our services, you know," Your remaining tears were swiped quickly away by Miko.
"We're here for you, always," Keqing agreed, hugging your side. Kokomi nodded quietly, focusing more on petting your hair lovingly. Ningguang took your face in her hands, smiling as she pressed a gentle kiss to the crown of your head. The love around you was warm, constant, and comfortable.
You hoped it would never end.

her star
In all her years of barging into the Jade Chamber, Beidou is fairly certain she’s never heard this combination of words come from any of Ningguang’s secretaries — until now. “What do you mean, the Tianquan is not taking visitors today?” she repeats, raising an eyebrow. 
Baiwen sighs. “It’s her orders, Captain. Come back another day?”
“Nah. I’m leaving for Sumeru tonight.” Beidou shrugs, brushing past the secretary and poking her head into Ningguang’s study. No Ningguang. 
“Captain—”
“Come on!” The pirate strolls towards Ningguang’s bedroom, completely unfazed by the three ladies helplessly trailing her. “Five minutes.” She never leaves Liyue without telling her star.
Beidou pushes open the unlocked door before the secretaries can stop her. “Ning—” She pauses, wondering why the room is so dark. The curtains are fully drawn to boot, blocking even the faintest hint of sunlight. “What’s going on? You suddenly got an allergy to sunlight?”
“Shh!” Baishi hisses.
Beidou folds her arms, raising an eyebrow again.
“Please just come back another day,” Baixiao pleads. “Lady Ningguang is—”
“It’s alright,” a soft voice suddenly says from the darkness, “I’ll see her.”
Beidou turns back to the shadows, taking in a rather unfamiliar sight: Ningguang, with her hair down, dressed in violet silk robes. Tired wine-red eyes lock onto hers for a moment. “You can leave us,” the Tianquan murmurs. The secretaries bow and close the door, though Baishi shoots Beidou a rather vicious glare. The captain, however, only has eyes for her fading star.
“Ning?” she asks softly, approaching the slender woman as she sways unstably on her feet. “What’s wrong?” 
Ningguang offers no answer. Beidou gently pulls her close and she all but melts into her firm embrace, her legs giving out. The pirate is quick to catch her, carrying her love the rest of the way to her bed. The sheets are a mess. Quietly, she lays Ningguang down before pressing the back of her hand to her pale forehead. Even through her gloves, Beidou can feel her forehead burning. “Archons.” She gets up, rummaging through Ningguang’s drawers. “You can’t just sleep this off, do you have medicine somewhere?”
“Third… drawer,” comes the slurred response. 
Beidou grabs the bottle, slipping a hand under Ningguang’s head to prop her up. “Here,” she coos softly, lifting the bottle to her lips. The Tianquan obediently finishes the concoction, her nose wrinkling in disgust at the bitter medicine. With that settled, the pirate studies her carefully. Ningguang’s normally-vibrant red eyes are dulled, her eyelids barely half-open. She shivers all of a sudden. Quietly, Beidou pulls the soft fleece blanket over Ningguang, stroking her hair tenderly. “Baobei. You should’ve told me,” she scolds gently.
“You’re… leaving tonight,” Ningguang murmurs sleepily.
“You’re more important than whatever business I have in Sumeru, my star,” Beidou whispers, leaning in to kiss her forehead. 
“It’s just a… mild illness.” A feeble protest.
“Mild or no, I’m staying. My partners can wait,” the brunette says firmly. “I’m not leaving you alone, Ning. These fevers can get bad quickly.” 
Silence. Then — a quiet whisper: “Thank you… Beidou.”
Tenderly, she leans down, pressing another kiss to Ningguang’s forehead. “I just want you safe and well, my star.” I worry for you.
“So do I,” Ningguang mumbles, her eyes already starting to close.
Beidou encourages it with gentle pats on her head. “Get some rest, okay? I’ll be here,” she promises, “Rest well, my heart.”
