pairing: childe/tartaglia x gn!reader summary: a case of mistaken identity leads to childe challenging you to a duel. (and it's totally not because he thinks you're hot). genre: strangers to crushes, pre-relationship, fluff, meet-cute(?), humor, tension (hopefully), love at first sight (on childe's behalf) notes: probably ooc but i have a thing for flirty childe, childe is an idiot, idk i think he'd be attracted to someone who could beat his ass, he's a masochist, very slight fontaine/v4.0 spoilers, reader is a champion duelist but everything is made up since we don't know much about them, fighting/sparring/canon typical violence, a bit of blood wc: ~2.4k

Soft pants leave your lips as you stand up straight, your hands slightly shaking from the adrenaline still coursing through your veins.

There's a sharp look in your eyes as you observe your opponent, your hand firmly wrapped around your sword's handle. The blade's tip rests underneath your opponent's chin, an irritated look on their face as you stare back fiercely. After a few moments, they sigh and lean back on their elbows, separating themselves from your blade and admitting defeat.

There's a beat of silence before slow, loud clapping fills the arena, and both you and your opponent turn to face the source of the noise. Your sword comes up instinctively, your eyes narrowed as you hold it up the newcomer.

His choice of clothing lets you know he's not a local, and you find yourself wondering how he got into the arena in the first place as he moves closer. You take the opportunity to study him, taking in his tall stature, handsome face, and messy, ginger hair.

"State your name and business," you say, your stance rigid yet casual, ready to jump into action at a moment's notice. You don't flinch as he approaches, merely raising an eyebrow when he comes to a stop right in front of you, his chest mere centimeters from your sword.

"That was quite the battle the two of you just had," he comments, ignoring your words as he shoots a quick glance at your opponent. You're met with deep blue eyes as he shifts his gaze to you, and you take note of the way he seems almost impressed when you don't look away. "You have a talent for fighting."

"Name and business," you repeat, face void of emotion as you stare him down. He huffs out a laugh, raising a hand to brush his hair out of his eyes.

"I'm Tartaglia," he says casually, his chest brushing the sharp blade of your sword with every breath he takes. He holds out his hand for you to shake, and you spare a quick glance at it before looking back up at his face. "You can call me Childe, but what should I call you?"

"That's your name, now what's your business?" you ask sharply, ignoring his question as you watch his eyes trail over your form. You click your tongue once in irritation, drawing his attention back to your face. He gives you a brazen smile, and you roll your eyes as you wait for him to answer.

"I'm here to spar with the Champion Duelist Clorinde," he proclaims, moving his hand to poke at your weapon. You lower it before he can touch it, remembering that Clorinde had in fact mentioned something about a challenger. You choose to ignore the small pout he sends you at the action, looking away from him and dismissing your previous opponent with a nod. You turn your back to Childe, as you follow after them, sheathing your sword as you do so.

"Should you really turn your back on your opponent?" you hear him ask, his tone playful as he follows after you.

"No, you shouldn't," you respond, coming to a stop near the edge of the arena. You bend down to pick up a canteen of water, quickly opening it before taking a sip. You can feel Childe's gaze on you, heavy as he watches every move you make, and you can't ignore the slight nervousness you feel. The silence lingers as you finish drinking and close your canteen, catching a glimpse of Childe's amused expression in the process. "But you're not my opponent."

Childe's face drops slightly at your words, and for the first time since he walked into the arena, his confident attitude is nowhere to be found.

"You mean," he begins, a puzzled look on his face as he tilts his head to the side. "You're not Clorinde?"

A surprised laugh escapes your lips at his question, and Childe freezes when he sees a smile spread across your face.

"No, I'm not," you finally say, shaking your head as you lean against the wall, one hand resting on the hilt of your sword.

"But your fighting style, it's basically perfect," Childe argues, his eyes drifting towards your weapon. "You're impressive, and I heard that Clorinde is the best of the best."

"She is," you confirm with a nod. "She's even better than I am. Unfortunately, she is also currently in a meeting, so she's probably running a few minutes late. You can wait for her here if you'd like."

"Wait, you're leaving?" Childe asks, a smirk appearing on his face when he sees the mild surprise on yours. "But we were getting along so well."

A hum is the only response he gets from you as you turn your back to him once more, lifting your hand in a lazy wave as you head towards the exit. He watches as you get further and further away, and he takes a few steps forward before speaking once more.

"How about we spar while I wait?"

His words cause you to falter, and you eventually come to a stop before throwing a glance back at him. He shifts awkwardly as you look him up and down, watching as you raise an eyebrow when you notice his lack of weapon.

"And what exactly do you plan on sparring with?" you ask, turning around to face him. The smile on Childe's face is visible even with the distance between the two of you, and he gestures towards the backup swords displayed along the back wall of the arena.

"One of those should be fine," he comments, giving you a sly look before stalking over to them. He studies the swords for a brief moment before picking up one of the steel estocs, earning a pensive look from you.

"Are you sure?" you ask, receiving a nod in return from the ginger. You place your canteen back on the floor.

"How cute of you to care about my well-being," Childe says, earning a scowl from you. "But it's not needed. I'll be fine with this."

You hesitate slightly before unsheathing your own sword, nodding stiffly and approaching the center of the arena once more. Your rigid posture is a stark contrast to Childe's casual stance, soft hums leaving his lips as he swings the estoc back and forth in an attempt to get used to its weight.

"Ready? If I win, I get to know your name," Childe says, earning another nod from you. His lips spread into a wide smile, and you're momentarily caught off guard by the fierceness shining in his eyes. "Give it your all, I won't be going easy on you."

There isn't any time to think before Childe springs into action, thrusting his sword forward in an attempt to catch you off guard. You block it without hesitation, swinging your arm up and then quickly slashing down in an attempt to strike him. He does a quick spin, gracefully dodging your attack before attempting to slash at your hand.

You breathe in sharply as you let your sword go, dropping your hand as you catch the hilt with the other. You immediately go on the offense, darting in close and swiping at his legs with the flat of your blade. A shocked noise leaves Childe's lips as he goes tumbling backwards, rolling out of the way when you go to pounce on top of him.

"So you're good with both hands?" he asks, barking out a laugh when you scowl at the innuendo.

"I am," you say anyways, bringing your sword up to block another strike. He leans in close, your swords crossed as he observes your face.

"You know, the heat of battle really suits you," he says, voice low as he leans in closer. You roll your eyes before shoving him back, chuckles leaving his lips as you do so. "See? Breathtaking."

"Shut up! Do you flirt with every opponent you come across?" you ask, taking the chance to kick at his chest. The action earns a laugh from him as he stumbles back a few steps, his sword coming up as you creep closer in a weak attempt to keep you at bay.

"Only the pretty ones who like to fight dirty," he teases, laughing once more as you lunge at him. You scoff loudly, shaking your head as you sidestep another attack.

"All of our duels are no holds barred," you explain, eyes narrowing as he backs away from you. His movements are confident, and you find yourself wondering what his next attack will be. "It will do you good to remember that. Especially when you fight Clorinde."

"Noted," he mutters, dropping low in an imitation of your earlier move. You jump over his blade, smirking to yourself as you land lightly. Your smirk drops however, when he immediately straightens up, swiping his right leg under both of yours and using his free arm to pull you down to the ground.

Your back hits the ground with a thud, and you huff softly as you feel the air leave your lungs. Childe is half-kneeling next to you, the tip of his sword digging into the dirt as he uses it for support. He looms over you, a satisfied smirk on his face as he leans in closer.

Blue eyes bore into you as Childe studies your face up close, and you find yourself struggling to keep your expression neutral at the intensity of his gaze. Your can't help the way your eyes trace the curve of his mouth, and you hurriedly look away when you see the glint of amusement in his eyes.

"You're strong," Childe says quietly, removing his arm and tilting your chin up. You manage to meet his gaze evenly, watching the surprise flit across his face when you smirk. The action has left him slightly unguarded, and you take the opportunity to act against him.

"You're right," you whisper back. "I am."

Childe reels back as you throw yourself at him, your hand shoving at his own at you push him down. His sword gets knocked out his hand in the scuffle, and you make sure to kick it far away from him before pinning him down. You're quick as you kneel atop of him, knees on either side of his torso as you press your free arm against his neck. You lean forward as you place your sword underneath his chin, digging into his skin in case he tries to get up.

There's a moment of silence as the two of you stare at each other, and you faintly register the movement of his arms as he brings his hands up to rest on the sides of your thighs.

"Interesting predicament I find myself in," he comments, but his expression lets you know that he's not entirely bothered by the situation.

"I win," you hiss, a victorious grin on your face. "I'll admit you were a worthy opponent."

"I dunno," he says back, a lopsided grin on his face as his thumbs brush against your thighs. He doesn't react to the way your blade digs into his flesh, and you pull your sword away slightly when you see tiny red droplets well up underneath the steel. "From my point of view, I feel like I'm definitely the one who won."

He catches you by surprise when he suddenly sits up, one hand now resting behind him to support his weight as the other remains on your leg. The ease he moves with has you wondering if he let you win, and the way he jostles you around in an attempt to get comfortable basically confirms your thought. By the time he settles down, you're left straddling his lap, your sword now hanging limply from your hand as the other rests against his chest in an attempt to steady yourself. There's a lazy grin on his face as his nose brushes against yours, and you lean back slightly to try and put more distance between the two of you.

"You're insufferable," you comment, looking away from him.

"Oh, I know," Childe murmurs, a sly smile on his face as he leans in slightly once more. You do your best to ignore him. "Can I get your name anyways?"

"Am I interrupting something?"

Clorinde's voice has you scrambling to your feet, and you find yourself sheathing your sword in an attempt to avoid her gaze.

"Clorinde," you greet, waving a hand towards the ginger. "This is Childe. He said you'd be sparring?"

She raises an eyebrow when you meet her gaze, eventually choosing to ignore the scene she walked into in favor of turning to face Childe.

"Apologies for my tardiness," she says, bowing her head slightly as she hold a hand out for Childe. He pulls himself to his feet before shaking her hand. "Lady Furina required my assistance with something."

"No apologies necessary," Childe insists, waving off her apologies with a laugh. "I had great company while I waited."

A curious glance from Clorinde is all it takes for your cheeks to heat up, and you simply wave before taking a few steps backwards.

"Well now that you're here, I'm going to go," you mutter, swiping your canteen from the spot you had left it.

"You're not going to stay and watch?" Childe asks, pouting when you shake your head. He watches as you head towards the entrance, sending a wave towards Clorinde before giving him a hesitant nod. "What about a good luck kiss?"

His words go ignored as you hurry out of the arena, and he only sighs and turns his attention back to Clorinde when he hears her unsheathe her sword.

"I trust you know the rules?" she asks, watching as he walks over to the abandoned estoc. She's met with a nod, and she hums lightly when she notices the way he keeps glancing at the exit.

"No holds barred, right?"

"Mhm," she confirms, taking a battle stance. Her face remains stoic as Childe gives her a wolfish smile, different from the ones he had given you. He blocks her first strike easily, and she gives an impressed nod at his quick reaction before immediately launching into a follow up attack. Childe finds himself completely focused on the fight, all signs of teasing and playfulness gone as he does his best to end the fight as quickly as possible.

After all, the faster he wins, the faster he can find you once again. (And perhaps even get to learn your name).

Foul legacy Childe pls

I'm taking this as a horny request bc,, same

it would probably be deep into your guys relationship before this would ever happen

and he might (would) have fantasies about it, about tearing open your little hole(s) with his essentially magically enlarged cock

about being able to pick you up and fuck you while you dangle there helpless, and how he could easily overpower you with little to no effort

but, those would just be his 'you're not there, so he has to get himself off' fantasies

you don't really get to see him fight either, and he doesn't really use this form outside of fights because of the physical toll it takes on him, so you would only have descriptions of this form for the longest

until one day, you two are out and stumble across a few too many ruin graders, and even if you can fight, childe is always quick to be your protector, and he uses his foul legacy form in order to get it over with quickly

and as soon as you see him transform, my god your brain gets filled with ideas

because he's so,, big. did everything else grow in proportion? and the feeling of him towering over you, you can already feel yourself throbbing at the ideas of what he could do to you

he is a bit weak afterwards though, so your focus shifts to helping him, but later on when you're back home and you have time to think again, you decide you have to try and ask

so you do, tracing your fingers up and down his stomach, leading into his waistband slightly, and ask 'so,, just a random question,, is,, you know,, this? bigger? when you're like that?' as you say 'this' you brush a finger over his cock

he stares at you, kinda surprised, before nodding. 'a little, why?'

'you know why.'

so, even though technically he knows he really shouldn't use this form for this, especially after already using it earlier, all those little fantasies are rushing through his head and his cock is quickly hardening

so, within the next 5 minutes, he's standing there, giant, basically with only the armor covering his dick area gone. and 'a little' was a big fucking understatement

his dick Is AT LEAST a foot long, and you don't know if you should be more overwhelmed by the fact your boyfriend is standing at around 13 feet tall, or that his dick would easily reach your ribs once inside you. and that's just the length, it's around 4 inches wide as well

you don't know if you can even physically handle all that, but you're no quitter, and you haven't been this fucking horny in forever

and don't worry, childe makes sure your body is plenty ready for him, using those long fingers to stretch you out and get you wet enough for him to not completely tear you open

he also would force you on your knees to at least attempt to suck him off, he loves seeing you struggle to even fit it in your mouth, and how even when deepthroating it you can still use both of your hands to beat him off

he'll make you cry from the face fucking alone, and God you look so pretty with your face covered in his cum

now, he's ready to fuck you, and he would probably prefer to at least start in doggy so that he isn't crushing you with his huge body

once he is inside you, it definitely hurts at first, he's not even all the way in and he's already in your guts, but very quickly it turns into pleasure

childe is having a hard time controlling himself too, wanting so badly just to ram into you nonstop, and cum over and over again deep into you, but he knows he needs to be careful so he doesn't actually hurt you

however, once you are adjusted, and he's able to push himself all the way into you, he's abusing that dumb little hole of yours.

suddenly you feel like a fuck toy, hes holding you up and just slamming you over and over onto his cock, his hands are gripping into you so tightly that you can already feel the bruises forming

any noises from him that would normally be moans or whines are pure growls now, he's weirdly animalistic but you don't even mind

he's also degrading you heavily right now, while also telling you how pretty you look while stuffed with his dick, or cumming all over him, but you're such a fucking slut for enjoying this, you deserve to be fucking ruined

this form allows him to move faster than usual too, you're just getting fucked so roughly that you can barely think, all you know is that you can't stop cumming

he keeps cumming as well, this form allowing him to not lose any stamina from it, all that happens is he gets more sensitive and his need to be inside you grows each time

the phrase fucked stupid isn't even enough to describe what happens to you, you're pretty sure you passed out as soon as he did pull out of you. you have 0 recollection of anything except of how good your body felt, and how good his dick felt inside of you.

childe soon describes all the drawbacks of this form to you, kinda making you feel bad for requesting it, but don't worry, this definitely isn't the only time this happens

childe x reader 69,, WHOEVER CUMS FIRST LOSES

childe takes this game of yours a little too seriously - while he is a more laid back lover, when you priorise this challenge, he is going all out and above. he pulls your hips into his face, chin bumping your clit with every move he makes and his tongue d’élèves into your velvety walls, exaggerated moans falling from his lips to add to the stimulation.

he purposefully pulls his hips away from your mouth to cease your own attack on his cock, just so he can get the upper hand in the battle.

… yeah… he takes these challenges very seriously

you're on your own, kid, you always have been.

childe x gn! reader, soulmate au (flowers bloom on your skin where your soulmate got hurt, they fade away when your soulmate touches them). so like....... i was going through my files and realised i never posted this (i think. at least. its been like a year) so i edited it. enjoy 🥳

“your soulmate flowers-- they’re gone!”

the woman from the docks had pulled your arm towards her and awed, running her fingers over the nicks in your arm, “did you meet them?”

you were notorious for the laurestines that budded upon your arm, seeking to nestle themselves into every crook and cranny of your body. it was worse when you were younger, around 14 was when you first started choking on the white of laurestines, throat erupting in pain as you tried to suppress the bile, terrified at what was happening-- and worse, what was happening to your soulmate?

“i did.”

“what are they like?”

tartaglia-- or sweetheart, as he makes you call him. he clung to you like a drowning man, mouthing at your neck as gloved hands intertwined themselves with yours, the bundle of white dying at his lips and shrinking before turning into nothingness. he presses into you with a chuckle, breathing you in as his hand finds the laurestine that matches the bruise he had gotten in sparring against the traveller, his fingers tracing love hearts around the bud before he strokes his thumb over the flower, finger pressing flat against your skin in a soft smother, idyllic murmurs trailing out of his mouth as he sighs and rubs his cheek against your shoulder.

“he’s… something.”

you had grabbed him by the arm, and with a smile on his face the idea of the perfect soulmate turns to pull you in closer. the snezhnayan breeze cards through his hair. he’s perfect, a reflection of the ideal, tall, handsome, impossibly rich-- not to mention just the right balance of loving & protective. his fingers always found earnestly drawing daisies into your skin and the constant seeking to intertwine his pinkie with yours. his love, delivered & tied so neatly as the bow that adorned the box that accompanied the letter he sent from liyue-- frivolous fancies and trivial dreams spouted across paper in dark ink that had the same highs and rolls as him, with straight lines and stabbed dots.

but under all that is the boy who found himself in the abyss, the one who made you cough up flowers and leave you stroking at your throat and humming pains out years later. the one who does not know the difference between the red on his hands-- whether it is his or someone else’s. but when he sees the red on your hands, and that glassy look you watch him with, he does nothing but kneel at your feet, mumble quiet apologies as he traces the bud, flower not even truly open and in full glory as it dies, silent in its short uneventful life.

“what’s wrong?” he had asked, once, pulling his gloves on as the two of you stand by the door of your house. the world howls outside.

but you can only shake your head, words suddenly stuck in your throat, unable to be coughed out.

“be safe,” is the only thing that slips out, croaked under the veil of moonlight across the cold.

in these plains of broken towers, beyond the cold of the mountains and snow of the loveless land, you found sparking familiarity cradled between your hands and pulled out of your throat.

“its just a fatui meeting,” at your huff, he laughs, pressing a kiss to your forehead as if you were made of glass, his gloved knuckles running up and down your arm in a poor imitation at a will for warmth, “alright, i’ll be careful.”

and you let him go, all that is left of him.

⇨ chemistry with the enemy

short enemies to lovers scenarios !! -> spicy kissing scenes (kinda suggestive mb???????)

includes: childe, scaramouche, la signora -> x gn!reader

CHILDE's mirthful gaze tangled with yours, infuriatingly beautiful eyes raising a subtle challenge. Your hate for him was flaring; twisting and turning in the pit of your stomach, like dozens of lashes from a whip.

His neck was untouched; a beautifully clean slate. Your blade rested snuggly beneath his adam's apple perfectly, as if meant to be there, fingers curled around the rough hilt. You had trained for this, awaited for this day so eagerly. But now looking at him this close, feeling his hot breath fanning against your warm face, noticing his eyes momentarily flicker from your eyes to your lips, you weren't sure if it was hatred or love that stirred like a storm between the two of you.

His chilly palm reached to cradle the bottom of your jaw oh-so-gently, angling your face so his eyes pierced yours. Raw emotion churned in the depths of blue, no words had to be exchanged. The silence was deafening. His face inched closer, the knife nicking his skin and drawing blood, however, he didn't seem to notice or care. He was enraptured by your face, absolutely dazed, lips barely hovering over yours, drinking in your beauty, before pulling you into a heated kiss. His soft lips moved in sync with yours, cherishing the feeling of both you connected, together, alone. A breathy sigh escaped your lips, hands reaching to hold his cheeks, his sly lips quirking up in the slightest. You realised that whatever... feeling this was that stole your breath and flushed your face a deep red, you absolutely revelled in it.

"You've stolen my heart, darling. It only makes sense if I steal yours too."

SCARAMOUCHE seems blissfully ignorant that you're a breath away from taking his life, even though the tip of your weapon hovers inches from his chest. His triumphant smirk and teasing eyes capture your own, kindling a violent rage that makes your hand tremble in barely controlled anger. There’s fire licking the ground around both of you, screams and cries and unbridled chaos ensuing everywhere. But you’re deaf to it all, and so is he.

He lies beneath you, bare and vulnerable, yet he grins as if he has won. You want to wipe that stupid look off his face, you want to witness his fear, his utter helplessness. Your palm is slick with sweat but firmly latched on the weapon. He must see your resolve to kill him, he has to. But it doesn’t work. Of course, it doesn’t work. You’re powerless even though you control his death. His smirk quirks up dangerously, his mouth opening to spit out another one of his sickening insults. You've had enough of him.

You're mouth latches on to his, devouring him in a bruising kiss. Your weapon drops from your hand, instead fisting his collar, bringing him deeper into the kiss. A pleasantly dumbstruck expression is etched on his features, eyes glazed in surprise and arms limp before he slides his hand at the back of your neck. The other reaches to cradle the back of your head, meeting your lips with an equally passionate vigour, tasting the metallic tang of blood and lust; both of you lost in this unending battle of chaos.

"I hate you so much, it makes me go crazy."

LA SIGNORA’s crimson-painted lips curve into a sly smile, gloved fingers tracing your arms, leaving goosebumps in their wake. Her eyes gleam brightly against the darkness of her chamber, like stolen ambers. It leaves you breathless.

Your eyes divert as she looks at you, feeling warmth crawling up your throat and the tips of your ears. Being intimate with the La Signora was clearly not a part of the assassination attempt, and you knew you had to get out before she pierced you with whatever weapon she secretly possessed.

Your hand suddenly feels empty of the cool feel of steel, a small thud heard as your weapon drops. Signora holds your wrist delicately, as if it could crumble under her hand. The other reaches to flick the loose strand of hair, tucking it behind your ear before her fingers trail to trace your lips. For the nth time, your breath is robbed that night.

She whispers something you're not able to catch because the next moment her lips meet with yours, tasting of sickly sweet cherry. Her hand pins both of yours to the wall, the other snaking around your neck. Your eyes close, a breathy sigh reverberating through your throat. Her scent clouds your senses, the taste of cherry the only distinction you're able to remember; crumbling into the kiss.

"You walked into my trap, little mouse. Now come and play."

finally!! so glad im done w this, its been sitting in drafts for a while now :(

anyways,, i hope you all liked it! leave a note or reblog to be rewarded with an automatic kiss <33

Genshin Modern AU Headcannons: Texting Styles

Warning: There’s cursing (because someone was being rude and an ass to one of the characters OTL) and mentioning of 18+ things.

Characters: Diluc, Kaeya, Dainsleif, Ajax/Tartaglia All imagines are with a GN reader. 😘

(Note: I’m listing these headcannons under my Genshin modern AU, but these headcannons work as standalones regardless of my AU ideas.)

Diluc: He keeps things simple and to the essentials.

Proper Grammar.

Keeps autocorrect and autospelling, auto anything is kept enabled. If there's quality-of-life functions to be utilized, they will be used.

Will definitely unsend/delete messages if there are enough errors or just doesn't like it and then retypes and sends it again. Otherwise, he’ll follow up with text correction with an asterisk (though it's rarely seen unless it's a particular slang or name spelling).

Rarely uses "lol" in favor of "haha" OR even rarer, the laughing emoji when he’s actually laughing harder than usual.

He does use some some abbreviations and convenient shorthands that just help with cutting down on time spent typing. 

On that note of emojis, Diluc uses emojis sparingly, but you'll see it more often if he feels that he’s close to you and will sound a little more casual.

He is most often using the normal smiley, 🙂. 

Tends to keep his texts short and to the point, but once in awhile....you may see longer texts from him if he’s explaining something. Nothing outrageous because he gives rather clear instructions and cuts all the fluff. That’s typical of him.

While they are to the point, they aren’t curt or cold (unless your POV is kaeya....in which that case Diluc really becomes curt).

You’ll feel his emotions come through. His warmth will show up in his text when he’s concerned or his silent anger....when he’s angry....(I encourage all to evacuate the premise if you feel endangered in any way.)

How long does it take for him to reply: He’ll usually get back to you or he’ll give you a timeframe of when he’ll get back to you or answer your text/inquiry. He’s usually on top of his responses unless he’s super busy, in which he’ll apologize for the long wait and get right into responding.

He’lll try not to leave you on read, unless of course the aforementioned busy state he could be in considering his workload or assignments OR unless you’re Kaeya. Yeah, he can be cold to his bro. Just doesn’t have time for his shenanigans sometimes. 

Sample of getting back to you about your proposal:

D: Just looked through it. I have made notes on the margins for suggestions. Of course, these are just suggestions. Feel free to ignore them if they’re irrelevant.  D: All right, ttyl. Send me your revised proposal if you want me to look through it again.  D: Just finishing up my own and submitting it before the end of the week.

Sample of him texting you if you two are dating:

D: Morning, y/n.🙂 D: Just wanted to text you that before you get out today. D: I’ll be honest. I couldn’t sleep last night. Probably just nerves. Kaeya would laugh at me if I told him, which is why I won’t. D: I can’t wait to see you in a bit. D: Please text me if anything comes up.

Yes, yes. He’s so sweet. Please let me have him. Also, he definitely debated which emoji to send in that second to last text.  “Is another smiley emoji too eager? How about 🥰? No...no. That’s too much.” It reminded him too much of what Kaeya would do and he just mentally eyerolls or groans in response. The reminder causes him pain and makes him feel embarrassed. “Maybe I shouldn’t add an emoji at all? Ugh. There...I sent it.” By the way, he really wanted to send this emoji, 😌, because that’s how he felt, but didn’t. Although, he immediately starts second guessing himself and wishes he could retract it, but ultimately accepts it. He accepts his fate. 

When the two of you start dating for longer, he won’t have to second guess himself anymore because you’ll know him so well. Be easy on him, he doesn’t have any dating experience, but boy does he try. He tries his best on top of Kaeya laughing at him at every turn.

As a side thing, Diluc would be real shy and quiet whenever you guys are talking on the phone because he feels like it��s surreal to hear your voice over the phone. He feels like phone calls are more intimate. Staying quiet is a good way for him to hide his nervousness from you.

Kaeya: He keeps things classy and relatively chill. 😉

Proper Grammar and stylistically due to his literature background.😏

Keeps auto-punctuation enabled, but has autocorrect/auto-spelling off because he knows how to spell (occasionally forgets the spelling of the flavorful and less used words), but also because he just likes to use slang and make sure his phone doesn’t autocorrect the names he types.😕

He’ll use abbreviations in texting like your lols and lmaos, ttyl, imo, and so on, Not the type to make up abbreviations of his own unless they’re inside jokes between you two.😀

Yes, he’ll use quotations as “air quotations” and expect to see italics for all things sussy. 

If you haven’t caught on yet, yes, the smug emoji is representative of him 😏 and is seen in most of his texts because he knows the tea and wants to know other people’s tea.

You can kind of expect him to use all the emojis at his disposal except the really loud ones like: 🤬🥵😭🙀. Yeah sorry, he doesn’t do cat emojis...but he might make exception if the person he’s dating likes cats.🤭 Anything to please his partner or bring a smile to his friend’s face.

Definitely changes the hand emojis to match his skin tone. No doubt about that.💅

His text lines is variety just depending on what he’s talking about or replying, there’s no real limit, except I don’t think he would ever do those longgggggggg paragraph texts. Yeah, that’s not very classy to him.😕 If he needs to type that much, he might as well call them or meet up.

It might be hard to discern if Kaeya is being sarcastic or genuine sometimes because he always seems to be hiding behind his emojis. Sometimes he’ll use emojis deliberately to mask what he’s really feeling... 😟

How long does it take for him to reply: He almost always has his phone on him and on hand, so it’s safe to say he’ll respond relatively quickly if not right away, but once in awhile he might just leave some people on read if it’s the non-essential or some pesky acquaintances. 🤭

The thing about him is, he talks to nearly everyone, but how close he is to each is varied and actually only talks to a few on a daily basis who he can share all his gossip and personal updates like Diluc, Dainsleif, Rosaria, and Lisa. The list goes on for a little longer...

Sample of texting to Lisa:

K: Remember how I told you about Beidou from L College being Ninggaung’s lackey for the week?👀 K: Well, I think they’re dating now.🤭 K: I have heard so much from my sources as of late, I can’t wait to share it with you. K:🧐 K: I think this is enough to warrant a phone call or a coffee break. You let me know.

Sample of texting you to go out on a date:

K: Hey there, y/n. K: I wanted to ask you in person, but I didn’t get the chance with you speeding off to your next class. As usual...😩 K: But I was hoping we could meet up for a coffee date at the spot I was talking to you about. 😏 K: Anytime is good with me. I’m pretty flexible. 😉

Confident guy, but secretly hoping you have time and won’t reject him right away.  He was typing, “unless you don’t want to...,” but then deleted it because he really wanted you to say yes and doesn’t want to leave an inch for you to turn away from him.

He enjoys phone calls more than Diluc for any situation. Hearing him laugh or chuckle through the phone is a treat. Not to mention whenever he hums a “hmm” lowly. Ohhh, it’s delectable.🤭 If only he knew how it makes Kaeya simps feel to hear all that.😩  

Dainsleif: At this point, he really should just trademark the thumbs up emoji.

I’m sure you can pick up from the short blurb that Dain really doesn’t type much at all and will mostly just uses some hand emojis to respond to most texts. Honestly, it should be talent.

Sometimes it can drive some people nuts over what he means when they’re texting him something urgent like “omg, I’m having a panic attack,” and he just goes “👍.“ Like do you mean, “cool story bro” or “good on you for dying right now.”

Maybe he doesn’t care, but people will never know because he doesn’t really make it known. I mean...you have to be either the bravest or angriest person ever to confront him about it. Most times, I think people just leave it at that because it might hurt their pride a little knowing what he really thought. The guy can be pretty blunt and cold.

Honestly, he might not even get to text a thumbs up emoji when you’re having a panic attack because he’s not always on his phone. Especially, when he’s working and he’ll see the text like....god knows when. Although, as someone who I consider as tech-savy, he can always link up his texts to his laptop. So, I guess he straight up either silence the texts or ignore that text....I’m kidding, he would have never ignore something that dire if he has the person on his contacts (and kept that contact...) Thank goodness he’s not in the medical field.

He’s definitely the type you want to talk to in-person if you want his honest answer. Texts are only so good to a certain point. 

Texting is for scheduling for meet ups or phone calls. Or simply a way for him to get quick updates from someone.

Needless to say, his texts are super short, if he types anything, and even more to-the-point than Diluc’s.

Yeah, he’s not a great conversationalist over texts at all.

He’s quite infuriating to those who are fast texters or prefer texting over to phone calls.

However, he’s not entirely neglectful. It just depends on who is sending him texts.

He doesn’t use a whole lot of punctuation, but his texts aren’t long so they’re very clear  

How long does it take for him to reply: Well.....it depends. If you’re not high on the list of priority, maybe never. He’ll straight up leave you on read like what he does to Kaeya sometimes, but Kaeya finds ways to grab his interests, which leads Dain to reply sooner than usual.

Sample of texts with someone from the same major as him:

Monday 7:06 PM Guy: Did you manage to recover the files for Fred? Dain: 👍 Guy: Awesome👍

Wednesday 8:23 PM Guy: We just arrived at Jerry’s party! where u at? Dain: 🦶 Guy: I’m assuming ure walking over then... Wednesday 9:30 PM Guy: Dude, it’s been like a hr, where u at? Guy: People are starting to wonder if ure coming at all... Guy: Please get here soon! Wednesday 11:43 PM Guy: Dude, did u leave early? I don’t c u anywere. [Left on read.] 

Thursday 1:45 PM Guy: Man screw u. I heard u left with cynthia! Bet u guys screwed!! Guy: Fak u, thinking ure the shyt or something! [Contact deleted. Conversation deleted.]

They did indeed have s*x only because she asked nicely and Dain was not in a relationship. Dain’s a gentleman who doesn’t mind casual s*x, but also who is he to deny a nice lady asking politely (or anybody asking politely in general😉). Beats hanging with douchebags. He has no time for drama or toxicity. He cuts them off right away.

Sample of a text to you when you’re dating him:

Dain: Hey Dain: I thought I should text you something like you told me to  Dain: I’m having PM classes today from 5 to 10 today Dain: But I’ll be free outside of that Dain: Let me know if you need me for anything Dain: We can meet up for lunch if you want You: Sure! Dain: 👍

Now, I know what this all sounds like, but let it be known, he is not a player. In fact, when he’s dating someone, the other person is more likely dump or cheat on him because he’s actually super faithful to his partner. S*xy times are reserved only for his partner if they so wished it. Unfortunately… sometimes the other person just doesn’t share the same level of commitment as he does...🥺 By the way, that’s considered a lot of texting by his standards and expect it to continue because that’s how committed and serious he is.

Ajax/Tartaglia: He’s normal, I don’t know what to talk about.🙃

There’s not a whole lot of characteristics to be picked out from his texting styles other than the fact that he always seems to reply to you when you least expect him to like....immediately replying to you even though you’re sending him texts at 3 AM. Like...does he even sleep?

That and his arsenal of emoji usage: 🤗🤭😑😧😲🥺😩😈 🥰😘🤯😃😉😎🥳🙃

He is one emoji beast and every one of them can immediately help you evoke the expression he has at every given moment. At least it’s nice to know how he’s feeling.

How long does it take for him to reply: Not long as long as he’s conscious. If he’s sleeping, well sometimes he’ll wake up to the sound of his phone pinging because he doesn’t really set it to silent mode except when he has class or during a movie. He usually has his phone on ring because he’s always there when you need him. He’s there for both his family and friends, and as long as he’s alive, he’ll continue to commit to his loved ones. (This only possible for someone as crazy as he is...or beastly...)

Sample of him replying to your 3 AM texts:

3:21 AM Ajax: Everything alright? It’s not like you to text this late...😐 You: Yeah, but isn’t that same for you? Ajax: Er...I might’ve had coffee too late in the afternoon? Ajax:😩 You: 🤭 A latte again? Ajax: Yup, couldn’t resist.... They were having a chestnut praline latte promotion and they were HALF OFF!!!!😋 Ajax: I may or may not have drank a little more than I should have🙃 You: And you didn’t invite me... You:😞 Ajax: Hey chin up, it’ll be my treat tomorrow 😉 Ajax: WAIT! I mean...my treat in a few hours🤣🤣 You: That’s true!!!🤣🤣 Ajax: So I’ll see you in a few...and then you can tell me what’s going on ok? You: Yeah, that sounds good  Ajax:😃👍

Best bro and he’s the same if not more with his siblings. He’s always there to support his people. He’ll schedule a meeting with people as soon as he can if he senses anything is wrong. Heck, he might just show up on your stoop or front door if it’s serious enough. He’s just that kind of guy and you can’t hide from him either 🙃... “You can run, but you won’t get far...” (Cancers are lowkey scary in how much they care sometimes....)

Sample of him texting you when you’re dating because:

Ajax: y/n..... Ajax: I miss you....😩 You: Ajax...it’s only been 2 days? You:🤨 Ajax: Yeah, but we could have shared 6 meals in those 2 days you know? Ajax:😧 You: Ajax, don’t ask for the impossible. Ajax: It’s not impossible if...say we’ve moved in together somewhere?🤗 You: What You: Wait! You: Hold on! You: Woah, let’s slow down a little bit here... Ajax: ok....😞 You: Right You: We can’t rush... Ajax: If you say so...😉

Be careful with this one.... If you have your own place, don’t be surprised if he starts sleeping over at your place more often or him trying to get you sleep over at his....he’s already started to get you comfortable with the idea and he won’t stop there. No...then he’ll start luring you in with his traditional style home cooking. Ho ho. Don’t let him lure you into it. No, you must resist! Resist those Russian pancakes. Hey, you! I meant food not the Russian pancakes on his body. *slaps your hand* No touchy! Once you’re onto him, you’re a goner.

Btw....here are those Russian Pancakes and a recipe. Yumm.

Thank you for reading this far!!

These headcannon posts are pretty experimental for me, but they’ve been fun to type up and think about.

Low key Kaeya’s texting style to ask someone out on a coffee date is pretty similar to what Tartalini would do as they both enjoy using winky emojis and are pretty flirty, but gotta diversify the texts and situations to deliver a breath of scenarios.

I had headcannons for Ayato’s texting style too, but I ran out of steam towards the end. So, I’ll just have to save those for another time.  I really wanted to elaborate on why I would think Dainsleif is open to casual s*x, but I feel like that could be a whole post on it’s own, so I tried to refrain from it taking over his section. After all, this is suppose to be on texting styles and their tendencies. 😉

I just hope you enjoyed reading it! If you’re interested in more of my modern AU headcannons, you check it here!

cw : suggestive

college hockey childe who loves to invite you to his place under the premise of having a nice, quiet place to study. and how could you not fall for it everytime when his parents so graciously bought him a nice modern townhouse on the outskirts of campus. (but it like the nice side, too expensive for most students, promoting its nice gated community with its own pool and dog park). 

the lure is so sweet too. he’s already ordered takeout before he sends the text. telling that it will be there in thirty—forty five minutes tops, depending on the traffic. you can't study on an empty stomach, he coos. already knowing your afternoon lab ran into your lunch time.

again. 

you have to give it to him though, he always plays such a good game, even though the ruse was up the moment you crossed the threshold. the light kiss he presses to your lips is a lingering promise as he slips your overnight bag off your shoulder. 

he even humors you, relaxing back into the leather couch, flipping through the channels at a low volume while you turn page after page of your research book. the only distraction he provides is the thigh that is pressed flush against yours, jumping in time with the annoyingly catchy mortgage commercial. it might have been less of a nuisance if he been wearing anything other than those stupid hockey training shorts that never failed to cling to the high point of his thighs. 

you turn another page defiantly and childe snorts. 

but rather than process archon war strategies, your mind wanders 

obviously you were still wound up from your last lecture, unable to compartmentalize one material from the other.  it would be another—

“twenty minutes before the food arrives.”

huh 

childe doesn’t look a you as he speaks, but his jumping thigh still. “first time I’ve heard you think a comprehensive thought since you’ve been here. we’ve had less time to play before we get interrupted. “

and then he draws your attention to those same thighs with a smack. 

“c’mere.”

the command weighs as little as he makes you feel as he’s the one to pull you to straddle his lap anyway. worn hands palm your waist and undulate your hips until your head drops against his shoulder, already a huffing soft pants against his shoulder. 

he laughs against the slope of your neck, lips trailing a kiss littered path. the fingertips not kneading your thigh, trails over your jaw to tilt your head back in his path. he kissed you like he didn’t care what time the delivery would arrive, time was a servant not a construct as he moaned under the scratch of your nails raking down his back. 

the delivery driver had the courtesy to knock twice after realizing no one was coming to the door.

it was just to fill the parameters of their job anyway. for childe had already left instructions with a healthy tip.

‘leave it at the door. ps: the noises are consensual ;)’

sex with me, so amazing

or, genshin men as people i’ve hooked up with.

who: multi/basically everyone (mentioned: childe, diluc, itto, kaeya, kazuha, zhongli) 

what: drabbles; describing my hook ups and who in genshin would be like them. don’t take it too seriously.

wc: 2.1k

warnings: ns/fw and angst :)) just a little bit of angst though, mostly smut ofc :D

1. 8 inch cock. even when you take him down your throat the deepest you can go, until your eyes water and you gag, you still can fit 5 fingers between your lips and the soft hair on his pelvis. so thick you can’t wrap your hand around it. big, heavy, hot. so long that he has to stretch you out in order for it to fit inside.

the first time you see it, your jaw drops. “holy fuck,” you gasp. “I don’t think it’s gonna fit.”

“you’ll make it fit,” he says. “stop running away; be a good girl and take it.”

sometimes it really is too big, though, if he doesn’t take the time to stretch you out. after the first time of his cock being too big, hurting a little too much than it feels good when he tries to go all the way in, he never lets you or himself rush into things.

foreplay is methodical. he eats you out because he loves it. he loves the feeling of your hands fisting his hair as he slides one, then two, and finally three fingers inside of you. loves the taste of your pussy, the hardness of your clit on his tongue. loves digging his fingers into your soft thighs that tremble and squeeze around his head. loves the sounds you make, the whimpers and the whines, when you beg for him to just fuck you already. loves the way your body writhes, the feeling of your cunt loosen then tighten and spasm around his fingers, the cries you make when you cum against his face.

he’s already hard when you kneel on still quivering legs in front of him, kissing up his thighs, leaving little marks and bites, running your hands over his soft skin. you don’t give him head with the purpose of trying to make him cum — not that often, at least. most times, it’s foreplay and also a game: a competition of whether it’s you who will pull away first, heaving for breath, asking for him to fuck you, or him who will get frustrated and push you off of him so he can turn you over and fuck you.

he’s most sensitive around his tip, which is wide and red and tastes tangy but not bad, so normally you focus on sucking the top half of his cock while your hand works around the rest. “take what you can, that’s— yes, fuck, that’s it. just like that. just like that, baby, keep doing that.”

when you do try to take him all the way down your throat, though, the incentive to keep going is the way his breath stutters and he wheezes, “oh, fuck, yes.” but when his cock inevitably presses too hard against the back of your mouth, you gag and pull off with a cough.

you let his heavy cock rest against your face while you suck on his balls to give yourself a moment to breathe, and you look up at him with teary eyes. he looks back down at you and says, almost in disbelief, “fuck, you’re so hot.” then he picks you up, throws you onto the bed, tells you to get on your stomach, and then pounds you into the mattress.

says shit like:

“relax, just relax. I’m gonna give you everything you need. don’t be impatient.”

“‘it’s too big?’ it’s barely even in, baby. you can take it, I know you can.”

“you’ll make it fit. now, be good for me and keep still.”

he moans your name.

“fuck, you feel good. you’re so fucking wet. you take me so well.”

“that feels good, doesn’t it? yeah? tell me how it feels. what was that? oh, you can’t even use your words?” he laughs when you get breathless, when he’s fucking you too hard and too fast for you to form words.

and always amazed, like he can’t believe it, “you’re so hot.”

when you both get close, he flips you over onto your back. he puts a pillow under your lower back, and leans down to spit on your cunt and kiss your clit. he put one of your legs over his shoulder and you wrap the other around his waist. he grips the headboard with one hand and touches your body softly, like he’s not saying obscene things and fucking the life out of you, with the other. and then he fucks you even harder.

he’s so deep that you can feel him in your stomach.

when you reach down to touch your clit, your other hand scratching down his back, he says stuff like:

“yes, that’s it, baby, go ‘head, make yourself feel good.”

“you gonna cum? yeah? you’re gonna cum all over my cock?”

“you look so pretty like this.”

he pulls out after you cum so he can finish on your stomach, but he cums so hard and so much, with his hand wrapped around his thick cock, pumping quickly, that it goes from your lower stomach all the way up to between your breasts. while you lay back to catch your breath, he wipes you off with a towel and licks your tits clean.

his dick is big and he knows how to use it. he says and does the right things, even if it’s not exceedingly kinky – (maybe you’ll get to that point later, you think). honestly, it’s the best foreplay, head, and sex you’ve ever had.

but he never stays for long after. there’s no emotions in your arrangement, really; it’s just hooking up. there’s no hanging out after and talking. and that’s fine with you, really. you aren’t sure there would be any compatibility between you for being in a relationship, anyway. but you definitely have chemistry in bed.

once he’s sure you’re coming down okay, he kisses you on the lips and rubs over your cheek with his thumb. he murmurs a promise of, “I’ll see you later,” and then walks out the door.

he doesn’t follow through.

this time, when the door closes behind him, it’s the last time you ever see him.

↳ diluc, ITTO, zhongli?

2. solid 5/5.5ish inches. fits perfectly; not too big, not too small. the weight feels good on your tongue; it isn’t as hard to take all of him in your mouth, until you can look up at him with your lips wrapped around the very base of his cock. sex is less about finishing and more about the process—about feeling, about the sensations. 

after the first time you hook up, you realize: it’s making love, not fucking. you really don’t know each other that well, but he holds you like he’s afraid you’re going to disappear. speaks to you like you’re one of the most important people in his life. touches you like you’re the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen. fucks you like he’s in love with you. 

it leaves you reeling. it’s confusing being treated like that so immediately, but it’s also nice. the orgasms you have are different than you’ve ever experienced before. the physical vaginal pleasure isn’t anything special, really (… you’ve had better dick), but the way you feel throughout your body and mind when you’re with him is so intense. 

it’s not about the orgasm specifically; it’s about the way you feel leading up to it, the process; the slow build leading up to an orgasm where you feel pleasure and relief throughout your entire body. 

hooking up is about you. he loves kissing you; sometimes it feels like he likes it even more than having sex. his lips are on yours for so long, seemingly not in a rush at all, even with his hard on pressing against your thigh and making a damp spot on his boxers. he only stops when you get restless and pent up and force him away. then his lips are on your neck, over your chest with his tongue circling your nipples in a way that has you shuddering, down your stomach until he kisses your hip bones—the left and then the right, skipping your cunt and going straight to your thighs. 

after all of the drawn out foreplay, when he finally puts his cock in, it feels like a hot, striking, all-encompassing instant relief for both of you. like it’s everything you’ve ever needed and wanted in your whole life. moaning into each other’s mouths, both your and his eyes rolling back, your bodies shuddering against each other. 

it’s overwhelming. it feels like you’re burning, like there’s nothing else you could possibly think about or focus on other than him, like this is all you’ve ever needed and wanted. you feel good all over, and it’s clear he does too. 

he doesn’t stop kissing you, touching all over your body, making sure as much of his skin is pressed against yours. moaning in your ear, telling you how beautiful you are, how sexy you look, how good you feel, the way your cunt is so wet and warm and tight for him and him only. how he wants to feel you cum around his cock, that he wants to see how hot you look when you cum for him. 

“I want you to cum. it doesn’t matter how long it takes,” he says. “we aren’t in a rush. just make yourself feel good, baby. take what you need.” 

his dick isn’t huge, but it isn’t small either. it feels best when he puts your ankles over his shoulders and kisses the inside of your leg gently as if he isn’t fucking you into the mattress with his hand resting against your lower stomach; when he presses his body to yours and makes love to your body until you write under him and cum hard around his cock; when he grips your waist as you ride him and digs his fingers into your hips, worshiping the plush of your thighs, the softness of your ass, until he pulls you against him so he can moan into your mouth as he cums. 

he says stuff like: 

“fuck, that feels so good. you’re so good, baby, shit, don’t stop.” 

“don’t hide, let me see you. fuck, you look so pretty. you’re so beautiful.” 

“you gonna cum? yeah? that’s it, baby, cum for me. you can do it. be good and cum for me.” 

of course, it isn’t all lovey and vanilla and soft. like when his hands stop exploring your body and instead squeeze your throat. or one time when he said, “you’re so loud,” and then stuck his fingers into your mouth. or when he pulled your hair and held your face in his hands as he fucked your mouth until he came down your throat and then kissed you after.

you find it unfortunate that the way he treats you is so refreshing. you find it special, different, even surprising, that he treats you so well when you’re with each other. he doesn’t act like you matter as a person only when you’re having sex, and that makes you sad for yourself. 

but it also makes you care—a little bit more than you should in your fuck buddy arrangement. it’s hard to eliminate emotions when it feels like you’re in love with each other when you hook up. 

he just seems so fucking into you. like, who fucks you like he loves you and says this shit kind of shit when you’re just supposed to be fuck buddies? 

“you should sleep over.” it wasn’t all that ‘you can stay if you want to’ bullshit. no, it was, “I want you to.” and it was every single time you came over, too.

“when can I see you? I’m hard as fuck thinking about you. you wanna do something about it?”

“you should come during the day. I want to see your face.” 

“if it was going to be anyone,” he said when you asked him about the boundaries of your arrangement one night, if you’re exclusive, if it’s just hooking up and there’s no feelings, etc. “it’s you.” 

he’s a liar. 

you don’t know if he means to be. you don’t know if he realizes that he’s stringing you along in the grey area of whatever the fuck “it’s you” is. you don’t know if he wants to see your name in his phone apart from wanting to hook up. you don’t know if playing pretend being in a relationship and being in love with each other is hurting him, too.

but you do know that when you kiss him goodbye one morning, it’ll be the last time you’ll ever see him.

i just started to cry ugly thinking about a video/fanart of childe with that tiktok audio: “but like didn't ur trauma make u stronger?”

“FUCKING NO SUSAN. I WAS THIRTEEN. THE ONLY THING THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN MAKING ME STRONGER WAS VEGETABLES AND MILK!”

IDK maybe the abyss thing makes me think that audio would fit perfectly with him and his backstory... i'm so sad i'm gonna kill myself (someone do it NOW)

Like Birds in The Breeze (pt 11)

Im so sorry this one took so long. Its just been very hectic at home and ive been stressed and busy. Dont worry though, i havent forgotten this story :D

~~

Kazuha awoke to the taste of sand and the tight, scratchy feeling of dried seawater on his skin. Beside him lay the harbinger, still locked to him at the wrist, though he seemed to be unmoving. He put his ear to the man’s chest for a few seconds and wasn’t exactly relieved but was not sad to find a heartbeat, lagging though it was. At least he wouldn’t be stuck with a dead body.  

To his dismay, the unconscious foe didn’t remain that way for long. Childe bolted upright and hacked the salt water out of his lungs, wet-gloved hands clenching into the sand. Kazuha was unsure whether he should try to help. He seemed on the edge and one touch could push him very easily over that edge. He shifted away as far as the chain would let him but the tug on it startled the disoriented man. The harbinger let the tug and lunged for Kazuha, pushing him back first into the sand.

His voice was raspy from the ocean water, heaving breaths to make up for the deprivation prior.

“Don’t touch me, wife stealer!” he shouted, shaking the samurai before raising his fist. Kazuha felt the anger, from before, resurface. This time he was sure he couldn’t keep it down.

He growled and pulled hard on the chain connecting them, forcing the ginger from his chest and flipping them.

“She’s not your wife- and she’ll never be your wife!”

Childe let out a visceral howl as he struggled against the samurai, knees flaring up to batter against Kazuha’s thighs in rabid, fierce strikes. His nails scratched him through the fabric of his gloves, scraping uncomfortably around his wrists, chafing like a rope.

“And you think she would ever settle for you? A vagabond, displaced and disgraced from his homeland? Why would she ever settle for you, let alone love YOU- when she had someone like me?” he hissed.

They struggled against each other for what seemed like hours to Kazuha, whose mind was spinning at the harbinger’s words. ‘She couldn’t ever come to love me’. He did find comfort in the idea that she wouldn’t love Childe either, though.

Suddenly, the struggle seemingly stopped. Kazuha looked down and saw that he was captivated not by the fight but by the body steadily floating to shore.

Both men scrambled towards the waves when they, at once, caught sight of who it was. Childe let out an uncharacteristic whimper, knees falling into the waves as he lunged for the floating girl. Kazuha gently swooped over him, plucking her from the seafoam. She was cold as ice, small crystals melting at his touch. It was odd but he didn’t really think about it.

He didn’t say anything as he fought to return her to the shore, the strength of his stride dragging the grieving harbinger behind him, still letting out wails. Kazuha felt tears pool in his eyes and a sharp pain strike his neck from trying not to cry.

She looked just as she had the day they had first found her- like she was sleeping. She was paler than usual and limp in his arms and Kazuha had to fight the urge to shake her as if it would wake her.

He gently laid her on the sand and lowered his head to her mouth to feel if she was breathing. He closed his eyes and concentrated hard.

Silence.

Silence.

And then Kazuha felt himself being thrown to the side and a pair of hands engulf his throat. He let out a choked cry of surprise and looked into the dead blue eyes of the man above him.

“You did this, you son of a bitch!” he shook Kazuha slightly, his hands tightening enough to make it clear that he was in danger, “You killed my- you killed my- Wife! The love of my life- gone! Just like a flash flood- you stole it all!”

Kazuha flailed his legs on the inside of Tartaglia’s thighs, hands gripping his gloves and scratching in an attempt to get him to let go.

“Not your wife- I loved her! All I ever did was love her! Don’t you think if I could I would take her place?”

Childe growled and his hands tightened. Kazuha’s vision began to grow spotty with every second.

“I don’t care if you would take her place. She’s gone and I’ll take pleasure in avenging my love” Childe felt icy hands fumble against his back, pushing him weakly off the man below him. Had he not been shocked he would have not moved an inch. His hands released Kazuha who gasped for air and scrambled as far from the other man as the chain would allow.

“Don’t!” a voice cried, chattering like icicles.

Kazuha looked up at his saviour and he saw an angel.

(Y/N) dropped to her knees, freezing hands moving to clasp the samurai’s flushed face. Her hands were so cold that he almost flinched. If it was anyone else he might’ve. But when he was faced with her, alive and well, he knew he would prefer cold hands over unresponsive ones.

“A-A-Alive” he wheezed, still regaining his voice, “Here, alive”

She smiled, teeth chattering and tears nearing freezing on her face. She nodded “Yes, I’m here, Kazu. I’m ok”

A shadow fell over them and the princess moved to cover him with her body- to protect him. She gave a weak but fierce glare at the harbinger who was still largely in shock.

“Don’t hurt him- I won’t let you”

(Y/N) didn’t know what to say when he fell to his knees before her and wept into her lap. His arms encircled her, grasping her far too tight and for far too long. She had to admit she appreciated his warmth as it emanated through her sopping clothes.

She looked over at Kazuha, too weak to push the harbinger away. He only gave her a reassuring smile. Something that was meant to tell her it would be ok. She gently patted his head, unsure of what she could say.

“Oh, my dear- you’re freezing!” he yelped moving away from her, which in turn pulled Kazuha against her back. He groaned lightly but agreed. “How on earth did you get so cold?”

Now that Kazuha thought about it, she had been cold the first time they found her.  Childe spotted the shiny light blue crystal that hung at her neck. And then it clicked. “You- you got a vision?” Childe asked her softly. It was the only time Kazuha had heard him talk like that. He couldn’t tell what his tone implied though.

She shakily touched the stone before shifting further away, looking at Kazuha for help. “I got it- yeah. I don’t know how to use it, though”

Childe’s eyes sparkled before he smiled at her, sickly sweet and all too patronising for her liking.

~~~

Both men left her there briefly on the shore, picking up dried driftwood together, though not by choice. Kazuha noticed that the harbinger seemed more amicable now as they built a fire close by.

“Did you” he coughed, “mean what you said about her?”

“I’m sorry?”

“You said you loved her” Childe murmured.

Kazuha remained silent.

“I wouldn’t blame you if you did. She’s beautiful”

But to Kazuha she was so much more than that.

[livingindabisribcage]

In your Childe NSFW Headcanons you said that he can't cum multiple times because cumming does take all his energy out. So how about one where we ride him or suck him off till he can't take it anymore?

Just Childe getting overstimulated until he cries. Please🙏

"Baby,, baby, please, just- just give me 2 seconds, please."

Childe was barely aware of what was going on at this point, just mumbling out his little begs over and over. In a rare occasion, you were actually able to overpower him, using handcuffs to quickly pin his hands behind him against the headboard of your bed. It surprised him immensely, but you had let your fantasies get the best of you. It's not your fault he's always gone so long, giving you plenty of time to think of all the dirty things you wanted to do to him.

Right now, you were pressing lazy kisses along his jawline as your hand rested on his dick, your thumb moving back and forth over the tip. It was constantly leaking out precum, having been tortured for so long. He had just cum for his 3rd time, which is usually when he hits his absolute max, but you're pushing him today.

"No, we're not done yet. I need to make up for all the time missed, let me make you feel good."

He whimpered loudly, and you squeezed his dick softly before going back to pumping it. He looked so pretty like this - glistening with sweat, his hair messy, eyes droopy and face flushed, while his perfect body twitched every time your hand brushed over his sensitive tip.

However, this whole time you had barely gotten any pleasure yourself, having quickly turned all the attention onto him. And from the way he's looking at you to the little noises he keeps making from your touch, you need to cum.

So, you throw your leg over his hips and lower yourself so that you could grind against his cock. As much as you want it inside, you can't help but tease him just a little more.

"No, ah, wait - why are you being so mean?"

"Do you wanna feel inside of me?" you grind harder onto him and get closer to his face, kissing him and gripping his hair. He nods quickly, his cock throbbing under you. "Please, please put it in. I wanna feel you, baby. Wanna feel your insides." He's breathing so heavily, and desperately trying to thrust up enough to shove himself inside you, but you don't let him. Once he gives up though, that's when you actually adjust and lower yourself enough to press his tip inside of you, and you slowly start bouncing on the tip alone.

"That's it? Can't handle my whole cock anymore?" He was finally starting to regain some of his energy again, probably from his excitement of finally getting to be inside of you, so his bratty side was starting to come out. He tried grinning snarkily at you, but before he could even think you slammed yourself down, burying his cock deep inside of you and causing him to gasp loudly.

You sit up straight and bounce heavily, bringing yourself all the way up to where he's barely inside of you before slamming back down, over and over until he starts whining and moaning again.

"Fuck, baby, you feel so good. I'm so close."

"Already? I've barely done anything." You laugh at him, he usually lasts so much longer, but you must have really made it sensitive if he's close only after a few minutes. He groans and glares at you, "That's- That's not my fault, and you - ah, you know it."

You keep a steady pace as you bounce, but you lean over a bit to start biting at his chest and neck while using your nails to scratch at his sides, hitting all his sensitive spots. He starts shaking, and you can tell he's about to cum.

"I want you to cum deep inside of me, Ajax. Please? Please cum. Now." You whisper in his ear, biting it softly, and he does just that, cumming all over your insides. He cums hard too, immediately slouching into himself as he finishes. But, you haven't cum yet, so you don't stop.

"Mmm, wait, wait wait wait, baby, y/n, baby, stop, please, I can't."

You cover his mouth with your hand, reducing his whines to loud whimpers and moans, and continue riding him. You can tell he doesn't even have the energy to move, so you decide to be nice enough to reach around him and undo the handcuffs. As you thought, all he does is move his hands from behind his back to place them on your waist, but he doesn't try and stop you. Even he knows he's at your mercy right now.

Soon though, he's shaking again, and his hands are grabbing into your sides with more pressure.

"Are you gonna cum again, baby?" He nods, and pulls you closer into his chest as you ride.

"I'm sorry, it just feels so good. It's too much, m sorry" He moans loudly as he cums again, clearly much weaker than last time, but still hard enough to bring tears to his eyes. You slow down for a few seconds, kissing his cheeks and asking if he's okay. "It's too much, baby. I'm gonna die. I'll die if you keep going. I can't take it. Please."

You think for a second, your poor baby is begging you to give him a break... but instead, you resume your bouncing. You can't help it! You're getting close yourself, and God you need to cum. You want to cum all over his dick, and he's just gonna have to take it.

"One more. Give me one more, baby." He's basically crying at this point, purely from the overstimulation. He can barely speak correctly either, mumbling out slurs of 'feels so good' 'I can't take anymore' 'I'm gonna die' 'please'. It's all turning you on so much more, and your orgasm quickly approaches, and you moan and tense up as you cum hard, still bouncing. He rubs your side as you cum, helping you through it, and probably hoping that this means you'll give him a break. But no, you asked him for one more, so you need one more.

So, you keep bouncing. And he sobs, the false hope probably sending him into more overstimulation. You're a little sensitive too, having just came so hard, but you deserve it. But your overstimulation is making you louder, and even sexier to Childe, he loves when you look all sexed out like this. So it's not long before he's whining and cumming again, with very little warning this time.

To tease him, you keep riding slowly, and he begs even more for you to stop. "You said one more, I gave you one more. Please, please give me a break. Please, please, no more. I can't take anymore." You giggle and kiss him softly on the lips.

"Don't worry, I'm done." You climb off of him, breathing heavily, and lay against him. It's quiet for a while, both of you tired, but at some point he threatens you by saying "well see how you enjoy it next time." and you just laugh, "you know you enjoyed it."

"shut up."

[genshinimpactlife]

Can you give me headcanons of Childe, Zhongli and Ningguang reacting to Snezhnayan diplomats having been assaulted, stripped, and hung upside down in Liyue public. The victims all had the same threatening notes attached to them that consists of denouncing Snezhnaya, the Tsaritsa and its citizens of being rotten, decadent, and depraved with iniquity and also invasive vermins in better cultures of Teyvat. They deserve a severe punishment from Heaven. (the victims are still alive btw)

Tortured Diplomats Reactions (TW)

Childe had the misfortune of coming across the scene in the morning, which was a horrifying sight.

He didn't know them personally, but seeing his own people like this left a pit in his stomach.

They were all bloody and bruised, their naked bodies displayed for everyone to see. They had been cut, beaten, and abused with different instruments.

The worst of it? They were still alive. They had been awake for every agonizing moment. They were abused and hung like a slab of meat for everyone to watch.

Childe was frozen in the crowd of people, unable to move or even breathe; his heart was pounding in his chest.

It wasn't long after that the millelith arrived, dispersing the crowd as they started working on helping the diplomats.

Of course, Childe knew he wasn't a good guy, but these diplomats? They didn't deserve this treatment.

After seeing something like this, Childe started viewing Liyue differently, less of a place he could call a home away from home but somewhere dangerous.

Zhongli has seen plenty of carnage over the years; he had even been part of it. But he thought in this new period, it wasn't necessary anymore.

This is why when he came across the scene on his morning walk, he was shocked, to say the least.

The Millelith had just arrived and tried to get the crowds away from the diplomats who were watching in horror.

Someone had taken a knife to the poor souls, cutting away at their bodies to torture, not kill.

They were covered in so much blood you could hardly even see their skin color. It was clear that they were still alive, but all of them were too exhausted to move.

It was almost taunting how the Diplomat's clothes and personal items lay just a few feet away. It was clear that their things had been looked through as well, as everything was trashed.

Zhongli wanted to step in, but he was just a regular civilian now. He knew that Liyue would have to deal with this on their own.

He knew the repercussions would be extreme, and Liyue would enter a dark period. But he had faith that they could work past it and catch the people who did this one way or another.

Zhongli was right. More killings happened of Diplomats and Liyue citizens alike; it became an all-out war between the two groups.

The last thing Ningguang expected to see when she was pulled away from her afternoon tea was this.

Three diplomats were stripped and hung upside down for everyone to see. They had been beaten, their bodies were black and blue with steel pipes lying a few feet away from them.

They had notes taped to their bodies, denouncing Snezhnayaas as a bunch of rotten criminals who deserve punishment.

Ningguang was frozen in place for a moment, just staring at the people in horror. She couldn't imagine who would do something like this; it wouldn't accomplish anything but raise tensions.

Once she got her wits about herself, she started yelling orders, having everyone leave the crime scene and get the Diplomats down from where they hung.

She went into work mode immediately, ensuring that these people got medical attention and then working on damage control.

She spent hours upon hours trying to find out who did this. She wanted retribution for the people harmed in Liyue, not to mention to help protect Liyues own reputation.

She almost became obsessed with trying to find the criminals, but everyone kept quiet, especially now that tension was rising in Liyue. Fights were breaking out, and threatening messages were being passed around

It wouldn't be long before this blew up into something Ningguang couldn't fix

I hope you enjoy! <3 Click Here To Join My Tag List

why is religious Christmas imagery all so joyful and pleasant? where is the inherent horror of the birth of Christ? A mother is handed her newborn child, wailing and innocent. Her hands come away sticky. Red. Simply by giving her son life she has already killed him. He is doomed from the beginning. Her love will not save him from suffering. Because the thing cradled in her arms is not a baby, it is a sacrifice: born amongst the other bleating animals whose blood will one day be spilled in the name of what demands it. the night is silent with anticipation. Mary, did you know? That your womb was also a grave?

#instant conversation enders for my multiple youth pastor cousins #don’t say it (I’m gonna say it) #The Child is The Price #but i mean come on #as someone who isn't actually even christian the real-life historical version of this is still cursed as fuck #i mean we know that jesus was a person who existed. whatever circumstances he was born in #its terrifyingly ominous to imagine being so unaware of the affect your child will have on the future of humanity #time itself will one day be counted around your birth of him #and all because he will suffer an excruciatingly painful death that you will not be able to prevent #not only that. but regardless of his or your intentions #regardless of whether there is a god #for millenea unfathomable millions will have blood spilled and will spill blood in his name #atrocities will be committed that you cannot even conceive of #and all on his and your behalf #you love your child. its beautiful. but there's horror in what you've done. because everyone else will love him too #and what's more dangerous than that?

"Dearest...I think that's enough"

"No its not"

And there goes another few rounds where you smother your boyfriends face with tons of kisses. He brought you many lipsticks and lip gloss, so it is only right you try to see the shade that matches, right? the shade, which makes his face feel even more ethereal. The only correct way to let people know that you're his and he's yours.

"Hmm... I think this shade suits your face better!" You moved the ones which made his face look more delightful. Shades of pink, red, coral, and all.

He did say that the number of kisses you gave him till then were enough, but deep down, he craved more. The way your soft lips felt against his skin left him breathless. The way areas where your lips left left a tingling and burning sensation, which, rather than being unpleasant, was more exciting

What was even more addicting was the way you would gently cup his face with your hands and attack his face ferverently. This was best for both of you. You get to have the ego boost after smothering or rather painting his face with your kisses, and he gets access to your unlimited display of affection.

"There! Now that's more like it you look like my lover now" putting emphasis on the word, you were grinning from ear to ear while admiring your masterpiece. When you tried to get up from his lap though...

"Now now dearest I think it is my turn to get what I have been seeking"

A Modern Genshin AU: Coffee Headcannons/Imagine with Genshin Men x GN reader {Part 1}

Starring:

The Trio: Diluc, Kaeya, Dainsleif

The "Latte" Duo: Ajax/Tartaglia and Thoma

Brief Honorable mentioning: Kamisato Ayato

Warnings: None. Unless you can't drink coffee, but that's ok, I made sure for the guys to cater to your tastes a bit for the non-coffee drinkers out here. I also can't have any caffeine either and can't even have tea in my Boba because it'll keep me up late at night. I do enjoy the smell and worked as a barista for a short while. :)

Anyhoo, I wrote this to celebrate the Autumn Season and to share good vibes with everyone (particularly to all those still in school no matter the level/field) as well as share my headcannons I have for some Genshin characters in Modern AU.

I promised a friend that I would publish some writing snippets for the Modern AU before their birthday, but I hope everyone can enjoy it as well. (Sorry, to my friend in advance if this seems familiar, some of it are expansions on things I've shared before ;;)

Headcannons on what these characters drink for their caffeine fix in this modern AU where most of the characters are studying in University and some of them chill together and hang out. :)

I encourage you to read all the parts because in this AU imagine post, the characters will interact with one another or one part relates to another.

The Trio: They're the first couple of characters I started these hcs for and they're all friends. Diluc and Kaeya share an apartment together, while Dainsleif crashes over once in awhile (poor guy doesn't like to be alone for too long :). They attend Teyvat's finest and elite University together as Master's students, but I won't talk too much of their studies this time.

Personally, I see Diluc as a cappuccino guy. He likes expresso, but feels that it lacks a little something when he's drinking it, so some foam is a nice accent for him when has his morning or afternoon coffee. While he doesn't really need expresso to keep him awake, a cup of freshly brewed coffee would do the trick for him, he just enjoys using the espresso machine and milk steamer because they're therapeutic for him. So, cappuccino it is. :) However, most of the time he'll be brewing his own fresh coffee because Kaeya and Dain are around, so he just fixes up coffee for everyone. Manually grinds his coffee beans into the perfect size for hand-dripped coffee because it’s all about that hand-drip action, also equally therapeutic for him to do. He orders expresso and coffee beans from various countries, but I have a feeling he lowkey has preference for ones that actually aren't from Mondstadt! Oohhhh, scandalous.

Diluc isn’t against local coffee shops or anything, but he tells you that he can fix you guys up with the best coffee around and his apartment was nearby campus. If you’re up for it, he’ll be delighted to have you over for coffee or even hot chocolate or tea (granted there isn’t a large selection of tea) if coffee isn’t your thing. He may or may not have to let Kaeya know in advance to clear out because depending on what kind of relationship you guys have. Kaeya has a tendency of embarrassing him in front of others... But if you’re already friends with Kaeya, then it’s all right.

Diluc doesn’t talk too much and if it’s your first time over he’ll be eagerly waiting to hear your opinion of the drink he made for you...though he might hide that eagerness. If it’s for whatever reason not to your taste, feel free to let him know, he’ll graciously offer to make another or even refine it to your tastes. “It’s not a bother at all. I want to make sure it’s to your liking,” he says while offering a warm soft smile. He did invite you over after all. You are most welcomed in his home. While his bro barges in suddenly with a quick quip, “are you winning son?👀” Earning him a pillow or apple thrown at him almost immediately like under a second because Diluc is so used to his shenanigans (and because it’s Diluc and he’s got really really good reflexes despite not having any real use for them in this AU). “Sorry, about that. I’ll have a talk with him later about that. Don’t pay him any attention.”

Diluc is a sweetheart. The best friend to sit there and hear you out and offer solid advice. He may not be able to tutor you depending on your major or your work, but he’ll do his best to offer whatever assistance he can. He’s a little jack of all trades and might know someone who can if he can’t do it himself.  A great guy overall when you’re studying or doing an assignment because he’ll actually keep you focused and will know how to have a proper break that won’t make you feel like you’re procrastinating. “It’s all about planning how to use your time. Nothing too special, but I suppose there are times where you have to take a break whether or not you want to.” Trust him, he knows how to manage time. He’s earning a near double Master’s degree centered on combining international trade laws and business management. 

Kaeya is an iced-americano chick all-the-way. Come on, you guys have to agree with me one this. It's written all over his personality and pose. My guy here always has in-hand his ice-americano from the local coffee shop. His go to drink even in winter, which Diluc judges him for: "hmph, as if water diluting expresso wasn't enough." Diluc swears off making any ice-americano at home and Kaeya is too lazy or finds it too bothersome to make anything but coffee maybe, but his coffee isn't that bad which Diluc explains its because he only selects the finest kinds to be imported, which Kaeya in return either eyerolls to or politely ignores while enjoying his cup of coffee.

Kaeya will definitely take you to his favorite spot around campus and probably swears by it. He’s the kind of guy that’s always down to have a coffee date or just to sit down to hear you rant. Let it out of your system, so to speak.

Let’s face it, we all know how smooth and soothing this man can be. He’s a pretty emphatic and sympathetic guy. He can understand the stress you’re going through and he’ll give you the right amount of encouragement and support. “You’ve made it this far and I’ve seen you’ve done it before, so what’s another hurdle?”

However, if you ever really start tearing up or breaking down in the coffee shop, you’ll put him at a real loss. He’s not really great with real emotional breakdowns, but he won’t ever leave you alone. He’ll stay quiet and offer you tissues and won’t say a word because he honestly wouldn’t know what’s the best to say for the situation, but he’ll wait for you to calm down. He’ll make sure no one looks at you strangely by simply glancing back at them with a cold look with his eyes.

He’ll offer to pay for your refill sometimes whenever you guys are at the café, “No, it’s all right I was just going to get a refill for myself too.”

Kaeya is definitely the type of guy who always has his laptop and smartphone with him. However, he might forget his charger once in awhile, but who would deny lending theirs to him. Come on....the man is gorgeous. People probably try to use the charger as an excuse just to get to talk to him again.

If you were stress for whatever reason, don’t worry, Kaeya is the kind of guy that has this chill aura/vibe that can help you destress and focus on your work. He doesn’t slack and has great track of consistency when it comes to his studies. He gets his work done with the time given and does his work over time. I like to think that his consistent nature towards achieving his goals can have a positive influence on those around him.  That being said, I picture him as a classics literature major. (Man reads a whole lot on his free time in Genshin when he’s sober....)

If you guys are dating 👀, ohhh, “Kaeya is the best.”

He won’t stop giving you that look. That sly look of affection. That slight smugness he has when you’re around him. Yeah, because you chose to be around him and he doesn’t plan to let you look for another. “Stahp it.” “Why?” His smug look unchanging. “You look kind of full of it.” “Hmm, maybe I am, but I can’t help it when I’m with you.” With someone so fine, oh so fine, he sings to himself...

[In order for Kaeya enjoyers to not miss a nice tidbit, I suggest you read a bit towards the end of the Dainsleif part. 🤪]

Dainsleif, our solitary bachelor (with many woohoo partners than one could even count on all their fingers and toes ;), simply enjoys a cup of freshly brew coffee. He doesn't have a preference in terms of specific coffee beans (unlike Diluc here), but can certainly appreciate good coffee when he has some. For this he admits that the ones brew in Diluc and Kaeya's home to be some of the best he's had altogether. He also enjoys it black. Simple and no fuss.

He can brew his own coffee, but unlike Diluc again, he doesn’t go through the extra work of hand-dripping his coffee although he did invest in a nice coffee machine. At most he has a manual coffee bean grinder because sometimes the coffee he wants just doesn’t come pre-ground. Diluc once tried to make the case that freshly ground coffee beans add to the flavor but Dain just gave him an emotionless stare and Diluc left it at that and never brought it up again....

He and Kaeya like to meet up at the local coffee shop and chat outside of classes. Mostly it's just him listening to Kaeya's latest gossip, dating shenanigans, but he does occasionally join in on shitting on Diluc with his friend. As I do love to say, nothing to see here, just two confident Khaenrian Bi men talking sh*t about their closeted bi friend. That's kind of their dynamics.

Ok, Dainsleif’s reputation aside, he’s by far the most chill out of the trio. Zero drama and nothing you say seems to faze him, which is nice because you won’t be seen as crazy unless he says you are, in which that you would mean...you really are....

Now, Dain’s also the most introverted of the three. So, if he accepts your invitation OR INVITES YOU for coffee. Well, my friend, count your blessings and buy a lotto (if you’re legal), because the stars aligned and he said yes. He’s not the type to be interested in most, but if when he is, it’s a compliment. Something about you has piqued his intrigue or he deems you nice enough to hang around. It’s not to say he doesn’t have friends. Quite the contrary, he’s actually quite popular amongst the student body, but he likes to keep to himself and not involve himself too much.

He’s pretty nice and may offer to buy you a cup of coffee or whatever you prefer or pay for your refill. (What is with Khaenrian men paying for drinks? They out here ‘bout to steal every man’s, woman’s, and person’s heart. Please, I love to be treated to drinks.)

He may seem hard to talk to at first, but don’t worry, he doesn’t bite, at least not outside of the bedroom😏....but I’m getting ahead of myself here. He also prefers to listen, but the moments where he does speak are pretty amazing because prepare to be surprised by how chatty he can be, like full-on monologues, despite being such a quiet character. As a friend, he really let’s you share your most stressful and depressing thoughts without judgement because he can relate and you are valid, but sometimes he can be blunt in how he tells you certain things... Try not to take it to heart at first -- he’s trying...

Though I must caution you, if you don’t have the power to focus on your own work alone, being around him won’t help. I imagine most of us may be too distracted by the mere sight of him. That light blonde hair....those aqua starry eyes....sigh....he’s so beautiful. You’ll catch people turning to look at him periodically and this couldn’t be more true sitting in a café. Yes, people stare at Kaeya too, but with Dain, he just doesn’t acknowledge people’s existence. So, people ended up using that to their advantage and staring at him till they’ve had their fill, which means...they don’t stop staring as Dain works on his laptop (FYI cybersecurity engineer major 🤪). Another Khaenrian who never leaves his home without his laptop and smartphone except he never forgets his chargers, but he isn’t as easy to approach to ask to borrow his charger I’m afraid....TT TT

As a lover.....he probably doesn’t change how he acts in public with you. Although he might be that much more attentive and sweet. I dare not imagine it less I combust into dust (yes, not even ash)....

The most I’ve got is that he’ll take his chances to touch you.  For instance, if you’re busy trying to find a napkin to wipe your mouth, he’ll do it for you with a napkin already in hand. Real attentively. Almost tenderly. Or were you imagining him personally licking it off for you? Mmn, naughty naughty. Please, that’s what Kaeya and Ajax would do if the two of you were sitting close enough because those two have no chill sometimes (a shame if anyone doesn’t read this whole post, they might end up missing this lil bit 🤪). Kaeya wouldn’t do it right away, I think he would pass you a napkin if you needed one, but if you made any suggestion about it, expect him to tease you about it. “What are you looking at me for? Did you need anything else from me? What? Lick? Ohhh, I see. All right, I’ll keep that in mind next time,” he’ll say and give you a cheery smile. On this topic, ok fine, Dain would lick it off with ease if y’all were secluded somehow. He just isn’t ecstatic about the whole world watching what you two are doing is all. By the way, all three of them wouldn’t just end it off there of course, a kiss would definitely follow by that point. (I salute you all for not just passing out at that point.)

Oh yeah, while he might not notice the looks from others, he’ll definitely catch you staring at him because he’ll develop a sixth sense when it’s in regards to you.😏 “Is there something wrong?” You shake your head. “Are you sure?” You nod. “Just let me know, ok?” “Yup.” After he is reassured, he’ll give you most adoring and sweet smile that could melt a glacier. Remember folks, channel that memory of Dain smiling to Halfdan. Yes, now you are Halfdan on the receiving end of that smile. Well, I don’t mean you are Halfdan, just... you get me, right? I could go on and on about Dainsleif, but that wouldn’t be fair to the other guys.

The "Latte" Duo: These two go to the university next to Teyvat's finest...it's more like another "sister" school that gets some funding and help from that Prestigious University -- think of it as charity almost. Their university has less majors taught and it’s more focused on making sure their students graduate with skills to help jump start their professional careers. It’s a lesser known institution, but the graduates manage to find jobs in their respective careers. Ajax/Tartaglia and Thoma are just undergrads there with Thoma being a year ahead of Ajax.

All right, as the name suggests....Ajax and Thoma are latte enthusiasts. Yes, they are your basic b*tches. Vanilla lattes at 3 PM? Yes. It’s pumpkin spice season? Yes, and they’ll order them without shame because why would you say no to something that taste that good?  And limited edition frappe? Yes, yes, snap yes.

Ajax doesn’t really understand people who would shun others for liking “basic” things such as vanilla lattes because as far as he’s concerned, that’s more vanilla flavoring available to him. Black coffee be damned. He takes his coffee with milk and sugar, thank you very much. Milk tea with sugar is also fine. 

Similar to Kaeya, he’s always down for coffee dates because he’s such a great friend and romantic partner. Whatever your relationship is with him, you’ll be treated right. He’s like a hypeman at times, always there to give you the push you need for self-esteem and encouragement. He believes that anything is possible if you work hard enough, well in the right way at least. He isn’t about to encourage you to do something even he knows is a bad idea (ESPECIALLY HIM).

He’s not too particular about where you guys get drinks because he’s pretty chill with going anywhere. He’s even down to buying a cup of joe from the local deli and sitting by the curb with you to enjoy it. He’s a real one. Definitely will offer to buy you coffee and you don’t even try. He’ll just pop in and order before you have the chance to stop him. If you try to pay him back, you might end up getting into a fist fight with him...please don’t... He won’t hurt you or anything, but still....don’t fight him.  He might accidentally break your wrist by slapping it away, and one of you definitely has a delicate wrist so don’t try him... Because who wants to sit in the ER explaining to the nurse how your friend managed to “accidently” break your wrist just because you were trying to slip some cash into his pocket... Honestly, not a good look after the two of you were suppose to be on just a relaxing coffee date... But hey, he’ll be right there waiting with you in the ER and will help get you snacks from the vending machine. 👍 And please don’t try to slip him some change to pay him back again, YOU MIGHT JUST LOSE YOUR OTHER WRIST.

Going back to your regular broadcasting: You can share anything going on in your life to him and, like Dain, he won’t judge you, but unlike Dain, he knows how to talk to you. He doesn’t ever want you to bottle up what you’re feeling deep down. He knows that’s just going to eat you out from inside and that’s no bueno.

Studying and doing work around him will be pretty chill. He won’t be studying, or at least probably not as hard as you because he isn’t trying to ace every class he’s in. He’ll be that friend playing a game on his laptop while you’re studying. Or distract you for a second because he wants to show you dumb videos from his feed or cat videos. Oh, and every other text he’s had with his family and siblings. He will tell you nearly every single one. Yes, he absolutely is that friend, but he can resist distracting you if you tell him not to. He isn’t as hyperactive as the fandom makes him out to be. Too much and even he’ll feel overwhelmed by himself. He still has to graduate after all. :) Which major? Beats me. You’ll have to ask him yourself.  

As a romantic partner, I just imagine you lose out on personal space. You’ll just somehow find him sitting right next to you all the time and he’ll prefer to sit on the same side as you instead of across from you.  Doesn’t matter if you’re in a coffee shop, a part of him needs to be in constant contact with you. Heck, even if he’s sitting across from you, his foot needs to be touching yours. He does this mostly unconsciously, it’s not like he wants to be nuisance to you. He just feels comfortable right next to you and hopefully you’ll feel comfortable with him. He would love it if you lay your head on his shoulder or he does on yours. 

Bottom line: Coffee time is chill time with him.

[In order for Tartaglia enjoyers to not miss a nice tidbit, I suggest you read a bit towards the end of the Dainsleif part if you haven’t. 🤪]

If you all are wondering....don’t worry, Thoma is already under employment by the Kamisatos as a housekeeper. Thoma didn’t want his parents to worry about his personal finances as he attended Uni, so by a stroke of luck he got employed by the Kamisatos. While being Ayato’s personal attendant, he learned to be a pro at brewing fresh hand-dripped coffee. His barista skills rival even Diluc’s and if the red head got to try it, even he would have to approve of Thoma’s skills.

Like Ajax, he also enjoys his coffee with milk and sugar, but sometimes he’ll opt for almond milk or soymilk. Thoma’s drink of choice is unabashedly a matcha latte. Boy, is he a matcha enthusiast. He even learned how to make it himself and will occasionally will make it at home. Probably the reason why he struggles with money sometimes is because he keeps buying quality teas and matcha to drink at home. That and whatever cooking utensil and kitchen appliances despite living in a small apartment. OTL

For those who don’t drink coffee, Thoma is the perfect friend and partner when it comes to coffee dates and afternoon tea. Sometimes you guys end up going to a coffee shop, but if it’s anything that’s not a coffee or with an expresso base, he’ll question why even bother paying for drinks outside when he can practically whip you any drink in the comfort of his home. Yes, you invited over to his apartment if you’re okay with that. It’s not big, but it’s tidy and cozy enough for 2 or 3 to study together, hang out, and play some video games. That third person most likely is Ajax because they hang out together so often and Ajax probably has crashed over numerous of times. I would have written that he has a cat at home, but I think he’ll have to resist it because he doesn’t want his cat to feel cramped up in such a small apartment. He probably feeds strays around his neighborhood though, so I guess it’s like having many animal companions to look after all in the end. Hehe.

Like the rest of the guys here, he definitely will listen to any concerns or just what’s going on in your life in general. He’s one of the best listeners in this post and can give you really good advice while helping you out. He’s still keeps his title as Thoma the “Fixer” and he isn’t about to lose it yet in this AU!

Another thing about him is, if for whatever reason you guys are meeting up outside or he’s going to meet up with you, expect him to call or text if you want him to buy anything to bring over cause he’s stopping by the local bakery. Sometimes, he’ll just show up with your favorite drink at your office, workplace, dorm, or class because he’s just that cool. (Aspire to find your own “Thoma” friend folks :)

As a romantic partner, hooo, well I think you’ve just won in life, but you have just gotten the achievement of finding one of the best partners out there. Forget coffee, his smile alone will be able to rejuvenate your energy. He’s like a warm morning sun or a glowing sunset. He’ll just have that kind of influence over you. Also, more tea time over at his place plus delicious treats! YUM! 

Hello, thank you so much for reading up to this point. I'm happy to be finally be sharing some writing on Dainsleif, there's not a whole lot of imagines/writings for this man and I love him too much to not share some of my own. I promise I’ll be writing more for him and for all the other guys and hopefully some of the female genshin characters as well!

Shout out to my good friend, @thetimidtimetraveler​ for the tidbit about how Tartaglia would even help get you snacks from the vending machine as you wait in the ER, which led me to think about how you may lose your other wrist if you hadn’t learned from your lesson of what drove you to be there in the first place. He, of course, never meant to hurt you, he’s just really strong you know.

This is a comfort AU of mine while I was grueling and crying through my studies (and still crying through). So, I hope this has comforted some while they’re toiling through their studies or self-studies. :)

I'm considering of publishing writings on AO3, but I honestly don't have any plot this AU, just scenes that are pretty entertaining passages to read, but who knows. I've never published on that site....

If you enjoyed this, GREAT, because I have more modern headcannons for genshin characters to come!

Reblogs would be greatly appreciated!

As always, I hope you'll leave any comments in the tags or in replies. I check everything. :)
