Sick Days 2
Pairings: Various Genshin Men x Isekai'd!Reader
Summary: The men are sick, and it's your duty to nurse them back to their healthy selves. Yes, the men are sick— all twenty-seven of them are ill, and you're the only one who's taking care of them. Some of them made it easier for you, but others made it complicated for you. It's a good thing you don't have emetophobia.
Note: This is highly requested by either three people or one person. Either way, I'm surprised someone wanted part two of the previous mini-fic because I felt iffy about the first part. Anyway, I am back from my vacation! That means we can finally get back to the longer fics because this upcoming week will be a villain!isekai'd!reader fic because it won the voting on Tumblr and Discord :> I don't post anywhere else but on Tumblr (Genshinluvr) and on AO3 (Aaliah_exo).
Warnings: The men are sick, and some of them are vomiting
Word Count: 3.5k
This is part two of Sick Days.

RING!
“Onikabuto booboo bear! I’m hungryyy!”
You run to the left side of the room with a tray of food in your hands. “Coming!”
RING!
“Sweetheart? Can you get me water? My throat is feeling parched.”
You run to the nearest water pitcher, grab a glass cup and fill it with water. “Give me a moment!” You holler. After filling the cup with water, you run to the right side of the room, making sure not to spill any water on the wooden floor.
RING RING!
“Snookums!!!! I’m cold! Can you get me an extra blanket and maybe cuddle with me?”
You run toward the piles of blankets on the table and search for the softest blanket you can find. The thicker and softer the blanket, the better it is. You don’t want any of them to be cold and feel uncomfortable while ill. You know how your boyfriends are—when they’re feeling unwell and sick, they need your attention around the clock. While searching through the mountain of blankets, you hear someone cough loudly.
Without looking, you announce over your shoulders, “Make sure to cough into your elbows and keep your masks on. You guys wouldn’t want to get me sick, now, do you?”
“No,” Aether mutters before sniffling under his face mask.
Zhongli sighs, rubbing his throbbing temples. “Apologies, dearest.”
“Childe, you can’t just ask [Y/N] to cuddle with you. You’ll get them sick, and if they get sick—”
Diluc was interrupted by Childe coughing loudly into his elbows, causing the redhead to roll his eyes and scoot toward the edge of his bed. Childe drops his arm to his side and narrows his eyes at Diluc before snuggling into his blanket, shivering like a chihuahua.
After what feels like forever, you finally found the perfect blanket for the poor, shivering Snezhnayan. You pull the blanket from the pile and walk to Childe’s bed. Childe’s eyes light up, and he sits on the bed, making grabby motions as you get closer to his bed. You decided to have the men stay in the infirmary at the estate instead of their bedrooms because, to you, it’d be easier to tend to each person if they were all in the same room instead of scattered around the estate. 
Well, at least that’s what you assumed. Now look at you— running from each side of the room to tend to each person’s needs, from getting water, cooking, and feeding your sickly boyfriends to getting them extra pillows and blankets if they’re in need, and so much more. It’s safe to say that you’re getting your daily exercise.
“I think I found the perfect blanket for you, Childe. It’s warm and really soft,” you say proudly, tossing the blanket over his shivering body.
Childe smiles at you beneath his face mask before grabbing you by the wrist while you adjust the blanket over him. You pause and look at the ginger Harbinger curiously. For someone who’s sick, Childe still has his strength because he somehow managed to pull you onto his bed. You stumble forward, making sure not to crush him when you land on his bed. Childe wraps his muscular arms around your neck and his legs around your thighs.
“Well, hello to you too,” you mumble, head resting against the crook of Childe’s neck.
Childe doesn’t reply. Instead, he sighs with contentment before rolling over to his side, bringing you with him. You snort and run your hands through his unruly, ginger hair. You pause and squeeze your eyes shut after feeling Childe’s damp hair. Oh, dear Archons. You pull your hands from Childe’s hair and wipe your hand on your shirt. Childe doesn’t seem to notice your slight change of behavior as he continues to nuzzle against you, sighing with contentment. You hear a disgruntled sigh coming from the small infirmary bed beside Childe’s bed. You peek from Childe’s neck to see Diluc and Al Haitham glaring holes into the back of Childe’s head. 
Al Haitham sniffles, crossing his arms over his chest. “Childe, you shouldn’t cuddle with [Y/N], or else you’ll get them sick too,” Al Haitham grumbles, continuing to glare at the ginger Snezhnayan.
“How are you freezing when you’re from Snezhnaya? Aren’t you used to the cold?” Venti asks from the other side of the room.
You chuckle. “Just because Childe is Snezhnayan doesn’t mean he’s used to the cold. Besides, Childe freezing due to being sick and being in a cold environment are two different things,” you say.
You pat Childe’s head and roll off the infirmary bed. Childe whines with protest, grabbing the hem of your shirt and attempting to pull you back to his bed, only for the hem of your shirt to slip through his fingers. Childe pouts and remains in bed, gazing at you with puppy dog eyes. You walk to the person closest to the medicine cart and adjust the pillow under his head.
“How are you feeling, Baizhu? You’re usually the one caring for us all and giving us medication, but today you and I switched spots,” you say, grabbing the medicine bottle with his name on the bottle and uncapping it.
Out of every sick man in the infirmary, you’re worried about Baizhu the most. Baizhu’s health is more at risk, and he’s prone to catching illnesses quickly out of the twenty-seven men. You’re grateful to have Baizhu give you some pointers on what medication to give each man in the infirmary, how much they need to take their medicine, and how often they need to take them.
Baizhu coughs into his elbow, wincing when he feels a sharp pain in his chest. “I could be worse, but with your assistance, I should be okay,” Baizhu wheezes.
You take out two pill tablets for Baizhu and hand them to the green-haired man. Baizhu takes his face mask off, throws the two pills into his mouth, and grabs the cup of water from your hands before downing the water to wash down the pills. Baizhu hands you the cup before lying on the bed. Changsheng, on the other hand, is perched on Baizhu’s lap, slowly slithering up to the green-haired man’s chest and staying there.
“How did we all get sick simultaneously? This sucks,” Kaveh sniffles from the other side of the infirmary, rubbing his red and irritated nose.
Just when Kaveh’s about to say more, his cheeks suddenly puff up, and he covers his mouth with his hands. Everyone stares at Kaveh, watching his pale, sickly skin gradually turn light green. Oh no. You recognize the expression. You rush to the trash can, grab it, and run to the other side of the infirmary to give Kaveh the trash can before he can spew bile all over the place.
Kaveh whimpers a ‘thank you’ before dry heaving into the trash bin. The others close their eyes and cover their ears while you look away, rubbing Kaveh’s back as he vomits into the trash can. After a few minutes, Kaveh wipes his mouth with the back of his hand while you take the vomit-filled trash can from his hands.
“I think you should go brush your teeth, Kaveh. Wouldn’t want to have vomit breath, now, do you?” Scaramouche asks, his nose scrunching up with disgust. 
Kaveh sighs and shoots a glare toward Scaramouche. Kaveh tosses the blanket off his body before getting up from the bed and going to the nearest bathroom. Scaramouche chuckles before quickly pulling up his face mask and coughing into his elbows. You sigh and dispose of the vomit-filled trash bin.
After changing the trash bin, you walk into the room and grab a pill bottle for Xiao. You didn’t think it was possible for Archons and Adeptis to get sick, but you were wrong. You stand beside Xiao’s bed and nudge him lightly while he remains on the infirmary bed with the blanket over his head. Xiao groans and curls into a little ball.
“Xiao, I have your medicine. You should take it before you sleep,” you say, nudging the Yaksha lightly.
“Adeptis don’t need sleep,” Xiao grumbles, his voice nasally due to his stuffy nose.
You sigh, grab the edge of the blanket, and yank it off his head. Xiao grumbles and squints at you. Xiao sighs and rolls over on his back, rubbing his eyes. Poor Xiao looks miserable— the tip of his nose is red, and he is constantly sniffling. Xiao wipes his nose with the tissue you hand to him while you uncap the pill bottle to give him his medication.
You hold out the two pill tablets to Xiao. “I know you don’t need sleep, but you should get some sleep regardless. If you don’t rest, then you won’t be healthy. If you’re not healthy, then that means I can’t give you kisses,” you say.
Xiao stares at you before reluctantly grabbing the tablets from your hands, throwing them into his mouth, and swallowing the pills dry. You gaped at Xiao. Xiao points at his head while you stare at him with your mouth agape. 
“What is he doing?” Cyno mutters, hugging his knees to his chest.
Kazuha wraps himself up in the blanket before falling over on the bed. “I think he’s asking for a forehead kiss from [Y/N] as a reward for taking his medicine,” Kazuha replies.
“So… are we not going to talk about how Xiao swallowed those pills without needing water?” Heizou asks, blowing his nose into the tissue.
You and Xiao continue to stare at each other in silence. You chuckle to yourself before leaning toward Xiao and kissing his forehead. Xiao closes his eyes, heat rushing to his cheeks. When you pull away, you notice Xiao’s cheeks are bright pink. You’re not sure if it’s because of his fever or if he’s blushing. Either way, Xiao looks adorable.
“Get some rest now, okay?” You stroke Xiao’s hair.
Xiao nods wordlessly before lying on his back while you tuck him into bed. Xiao closes his eyes when you lean in to kiss his forehead before leaving him to let him sleep. You walk to the next person to check on them, only to see Kaeya knocked out cold. Kaeya’s not wearing his eyepatch as it lays above his pillow. You press your hand against his forehead after brushing his bangs from his forehead. He still has a high fever, and he’s been sick for a few days— luckily, his fever isn’t nearly as bad as the first day.
Kaeya cracks his eyes open when you wipe the sweat from his forehead with a rag. Kaeya clears his throat, wincing when he feels how dry his throat is. “Oh? Is it my turn to be taken care of by nurse bunny?” Kaeya teases.
You snort. “Yes, it’s your turn to be taken care of by me, Kaeya,” you reply. “Try sitting for me, okay? You need to take your medicine.”
Kaeya sighs and sits up, grabbing the eyepatch from above the pillow and putting them on while you grab his medicine bottle. Why would the men need their own prescription if they have the same illness? Well, some are allergic to certain ingredients in the medication, and others are not. Some need stronger doses than others. People’s bodies react to medication differently, and you sure as hell do not want your boyfriends to have a negative reaction to their medication. Especially when they’re sick— some sicker than others.
You take two tablets from the pill bottle, handing them to the Cavalry Captain. Kaeya smiles at you, taking the pills from your hands before swallowing them with the help of water. After downing the medication, Kaeya places the cup on the nightstand between his and Tighnari’s bed, resting his head on your lower abdomen, and closes his eyes.
“Get some rest, alright? I only bothered you awake so you can take your medication,” you murmur, running your hands through his hair.
Kaeya nods before lying on the bed and closing his eyes. You turn to look at Tighnari, whose staring at you with a faraway look. His hair is pulled up in a half ponytail, there are dark circles underneath his eyes, and he’s shaking his head. 
Tighnari clears his throat. “Before you say anything, I already took my medication,” Tighnari rasps.
You blink at him. “When? I didn’t even notice you getting up to take your medication,” you say incredulously.
“He took his medication while you were occupied with Kaveh,” Thoma interjects, snuggling up against the body pillow and closing his eyes.
You sigh. “At least it’s one less person to worry about,” you murmur, running your hands through your hair. “You should get some rest now. Since you took your medication already.”
Tighnari stares at you before pointing at his forehead. You playfully roll your eyes and lean down, kissing his forehead. Tighnari silently cheers before taking his hair out of the half ponytail and lying down. You were about to go over and check on Gorou and Albedo, but the two men were also knocked out cold.
Gorou cracks his eyes open and rubs his eye. “Can I take my medication later? ‘M tired,” Gorou mumbles, rolling over on his stomach, and slowly falls asleep.
“Sorry, Gorou, but I can’t let you skip out on your medication. There’s a time slot, remember?” You poke Gorou’s cheek lightly.
On the bed, one foot from Gorou’s bed, Albedo raises his hand. “I also took my medication earlier as well,” Albedo comments.
You stare at Albedo as the Chief Alchemist gets comfortable in his bed. Well, at least the ones that took their medication are somewhat making it easier for you. You walk to Dainsleif’s bed and sit across from him. The blond man cracks his eyes open and gazes at you with bleary eyes, slowly rubbing his eyes as he sits on the bed. You pull his medicine bottle out from the small basket and hand him the bottle. Dainsleif uncaps the bottle, takes two pill tablets from the bottle, and pops the pills into his mouth before downing the water from his water bottle.
“I didn’t know you could get sick,” you murmur, hugging your knees to your chest.
Dainsleif hands the bottle back to you. “I’m immortal, not immune to diseases and sicknesses,” Dainsleif replies, wiping the droplet of water from the corner of his lips.
You stand and hand him the eyemask. “It looks like not even Archons are immune to diseases and illnesses. I’m going to let you rest now, alright? I’m going to check on the others,” you say, stroking Dainsleif’s hair before walking to the next person.
What amazes you is how Capitano continues to wear his helmet despite being sick. When you hand him his medication, Capitano gets up from his bed and leaves the room for a brief moment before returning.
“You didn’t throw the medicine away, did you?” you ask, gazing at the tall Harbinger skeptically.
Capitano’s shoulders bounce as he sits on his bed and shakes his head. “Just because I took my medication out of sight does not mean I threw them away. You needn’t worry,” says Capitano as he pats your head before lying down.
You sigh in relief and smile at Capitano before turning over to the other three Harbingers. You pass the medicine bottles to each man and fill their cups with water from the water pitcher. You hand the cups to the men, trading the cups of water for the medicine bottles. The three men take their medication before remaining sitting on their beds.
“Is there anything else you three need before I check up on Neuvillette and Wriothesley?” you ask, putting their prescription bottles back into the tray.
Pantalone sighs, takes his glasses off, and puts them on the nightstand. “When can we start cuddling again?” asks the black-haired Harbinger.
“When you’re not sick anymore, Captain Obvious. Do you want [Y/N] to get sick all because you wanted a cuddle session?” Dottore asks, glaring at the black-haired Harbinger.
You sigh, pinching the bridge of your nose. Even though the two men are sick, they still bicker with one another. Pierro clears his throat and motions for you to come close. You walk to Pierro and stand at the foot of his bed. You grab an extra blanket for Pierro and drape it over him. Pierro grabs your hand and pulls you toward him.
You stand beside Pierro’s bed, and he wraps his arms around your waist, burying his face into your stomach. You run your hands through his hair, untangling the small knots in his hair as Pierro rubs your back with his thumb. You press the back of your hand against his forehead, sighing in relief.
“It looks like your fever is going down faster than the others! That’s great news,” you say, patting his head.
Pierro clears his throat. “It’s all thanks to you, little one. If it weren’t for you, my fever wouldn’t have gone down,” Pierro replies.
“Hey! Stop giving the old man attention because we’re dying over here!” A nasally voice hollers from the other side of the infirmary.
Pierro reluctantly releases you as you turn to where the other two men are lying. Wriothesley looks like a mess, but you can’t blame him since the poor man has emptied his stomach four times so far. Wriothesley sniffles pitifully, hugging the trash can to his chest as he wipes the snot from his nose with the back of his hand. You hand the medication to him, only for Wriothesley to shake his head and place a hand over his stomach.
“I don’t want to take it right now, my dear. I don’t think I’ll be able to keep it down if I were to take the medication,” Wriothesley says, pressing his lips into a thin line.
Wriothesley’s face turns bright green before shoving his face into the trash bin and retching and emptying his stomach for the fifth time. You sigh, rubbing his back as he continues to spew into the almost full trash bin. While Wriothesley is retching and whimpering into the white trash can, you turn to Neuvillette.
“Did you take your medication?” You ask, shaking the prescription bottle lightly before him.
Neuvillette shakes his head. “I just woke up. Waking up to your face and the sound of your voice is something I would prefer over the sounds of Wriothesley heaving and whimpering into the trash can,” Neuvillette sighs, brushing his hair away from his face.
You run your fingers through Neuvillette’s hair, smiling at the silver-haired man. “Maybe next time when you’re not sick. After all, you and Wriothesley arrived at the estate not long ago, and look at you two… sick just like the others,” you sigh.
Poor Neuvillette and Wriothesley. The two men have moved into the estate not long ago, and yet both of them end up getting the virus that was going around the abode. The first person that caught the virus was Kaveh, and it passed around to everyone in the abode except for little ole’ you. This was strange because you get sick easily— you don’t have a weak immune system per se, but you have lived with children in the past back in your world, and those children would get you sick whenever they were sick.
“Here’s your medicine. Get some rest after, alright? I know you have a headache right now,” you murmur, handing Neuvillette his medication.
Neuvillette grabs the medication from your hands, and you turn to Wriothesley, who places the trash bin beside his bed and gazes at you with bleary eyes. You prop one hand on your hip, looking at Wriothesley curiously.
“Are you done throwing up?” You ask.
Wriothesley nods.
You tap your fingers on your hips. “Do you think you can take your medications now? If not, I can give them to you later when you don’t feel like you have to throw up again,” you suggest.
Wriothesley shakes his head wordlessly and extends his hand, the palm of his hand facing up as he waits for you to hand the pill tablets to him. You sigh and place the two pill tablets on the palm of his hands, and watch the black-haired man shove the pills into his mouth before chugging the water.
“Wriothesley, please don’t chug the water. You might make yourself throw up again if you do that,” you chide.
Wriothesley places the cup back on the nightstand between his and Neuvillette’s bed, wiping the water droplets from his lips with the back of his hand. You pat his head while he smiles, pressing his head against your stomach. After a few minutes of petting Wriothesley’s hair, you grab the trash can beside Wriothesley’s bed and walk out of the room to empty the trash can, only to stop in your tracks when you hear someone retch and a collective groan.
“[Y/N]! You have more trash cans to empty!”
You sigh, shoulders slumping. Whatever this virus is, you sure hope it stops floating around because you don’t know how much longer you can deal with having to change out trash bags. Especially when you’re not a huge fan of vomiting. It’s a good thing you don’t have emetophobia— that would render you useless if you had it. As long as you’re not the one that’s vomiting, you’re okay with cleaning up after someone else’s vomit since it’s not your first rodeo.
Note: Not gonna lie, as I got closer to completing this mini-fic, I started getting nauseous out of nowhere. But I am okay-ish now! The Gatorade kind of helped me feel better. But yes, this upcoming week is the somewhat lengthier fic of villain!isekai'd!reader since it did win the Tumblr and Discord polls. Speaking of Discord, for those who want to join my Discord server, here is the temporary link to [Zhongli's Abode]. Please make sure to read the server rules to save yourself from getting in trouble (if you like the server, you can stay, chat, and lurk. If not, you can leave if you don't vibe with it ^^).

what it’s like going to bed with the genshin boys
Includes: Ayato, Childe, Diluc, Gorou, Kazuha, Kaeya, Itto, Thoma, Albedo, Scaramouche, Xiao, Zhongli, Venti, Aether
Genre: Fluff! The reader is gender neutral.
Word Count: 170-250ish words each. Some characters are harder to write than others lmao
Notes: Bullet imagine. Nothing suggestive or scandalous lmao. I just find comfort in sleeping amongst all my pillows sometimes and I can’t imagine how comforting it would be to sleep with a pryo vision holder who owns a winery!!! I decided not to do all the younger boys just because these are considered romantic relationships. I also am unsure of how old Gorou is, but I see him as being a bit older than Xingqui or Bennett. If he’s not though and y’all think it’d be best to remove his part from this, I will do so. Sorry for not posting in forever btw. Hopefully I’ll be able to write more and post more since summer break is here! I got excited to post this lol so I apologize if there’s any mistakes or anything. I hope you guys enjoy!!
Ayato:
I think Ayato, with his prestige role in Inazuma, probably seems like he wouldn’t care much for cuddles at bedtime. He’s just too prim and proper for that.
Top secret information, though, he does! He cares so much for them hehe
He just loves it when you curl up next to him, with your head on his chest and his arm wrapped around you so he can rub comforting circles on your abdomen or play with your hair if he wants.
When you wake up in the morning and it’s a bit chilly inside, he just loves it when you get as close to him as you can.
He normally wakes up earlier than you, so while you continue sleeping, he’ll patiently wait for you to wake up so he can give you all the good morning kisses you deserve.
Honestly, after a long day of dealing with Yashiro Commissioner things, he just can’t wait to hold you all night long. Sometimes when he wakes up, he’s already anticipating for the night to come so he can hold you close and tell you how much he loves you.
Childe:
More often than not, he’s not exactly present at home since he’s doing Fatui things. You’ve gotten accustomed going to bed alone, unfortunately.
That’s why Childe is more inclined to spoon you when he finally comes home.
It’ll be the dead of night when he quietly sneaks his way into your little cottage in Snezhnaya. The bitter cold outside was just starting to nip at him, so all he had on his mind was getting in bed with you.
He’d walk into the bedroom with soft footsteps, having already discarded of his boots at the front door along with the rest of his belongings. You’d be fast asleep, as expected, on your designated side of the bed as you snuggled a pillow beside you. Sometimes Childe wondered if you always slept on your side of the bed, hoping each night for his long-awaited return.
Carefully, Childe would climb in bed beside you and wrap an arm around you to draw you closer to him as gently as he could without disturbing you.
It wouldn’t ever take long for him to fall asleep. Between being exhausted after being away on a mission to being in your soft, comforting presence, it was impossible to not drift off into one the best sleeps he’ll ever have.
Diluc:
Chances of you actually going to bed with Diluc at the same time was pretty much half and half. Sometimes he’d be at home and accompany you to bed. Sometimes he’d had to be at Angel’s Share late and you wouldn’t see him until the morning. And then sometimes, he’d go to bed with you, but you’d wake up late in the night to find him gone on some Darknight Hero mission.
(He’d never forgive the Traveler for starting that nickname.)
Because of this, he’d settle for spooning you since if he had to leave, he could do so without bothering you much and when he came back, it would be easy to resume.
The only downside was that when he left, the extra warmth he seemed to radiate because of his vision would leave too, leaving you to get a little cold whenever he left. Normally, this wouldn’t be enough to wake you up right away.
If you did happen to wake up when Diluc was leaving, though, it was hard for him to not stay. He had such a soft spot for you, if you gave him just one little pouty look, he’d be getting back in bed before you could even ask.
Oh, but his cuddles are always the best. In comparison to you, his stature and build is much larger, so it’s like having a nice, bear hug constantly.
It was always a challenge getting up in the morning since neither one of you wanted to leave the other.
Gorou:
You and Gorou are all over each other at bedtime.
You spoon him, he spoons you, he cradles you, you cradle him – it’s just a tossup, honestly. There’s not preference, as long as you two are with each other and comfortable.
He’s normally tired at the end of the day after doing all his general duties, so it’s not hard for him to just find a spot amongst the blankets and pillows with you and be perfectly content.
If it’s within easy reach, yes, you will brush his tail hehe. He acted super embarrassed about it at first, even though you two are dating. He didn’t view you in the same way as Yae Miko on this sort of thing, but he did feel anxious about you knowing this about him! He was okay with you knowing his secrets, of course, but this!! He was a general, for archon’s sake! He couldn’t let people know he enjoyed his tail being brushed!
Well, except you now. Because you knew exactly how he liked it and it was you!! He loves you!! Please, brush his tail!!
Just… don’t tell anyone… for his sake.
Kazuha:
For starters, if you and Kazuha are on a voyage on the Crux, you both just have to squeeze in somewhere to occupy what little space is available on the ship. There was really no set “position” as long as you two could sleep comfortably in those conditions.
However, whenever the ship was docked and you two were staying in Liyue Harbor for a little bit, you could take up as much room as possible!
You two would definitely take advantage of this opportunity and spread out in the inn’s bed as much as you possibly could.
At least he would. Kazuha would sprawl out like a little starfish, with one arm out to the side while the other would be underneath his head and his legs outstretched. The free arm would be your invitation to cuddle him hehe
You’d fill in the space next to him, either facing him or not since both worked just fine. If you faced him, his free arm would wrap around you to hold you to him while an arm and leg of yours would drape across his body. If you faced away, the free arm would just be a little pillow for you and yes, it would definitely be numb in the morning but that didn’t matter! As long as you were happy hehe
Kaeya:
One thing you didn’t expect from Mondstadt’s heartthrob was how punctual he was to bed. Not that Kaeya had a specific bedtime, but if you were going to bed, he was, too. It was endearing, really. You didn’t have to wait up for him and the nights where he wasn’t at home all night, he’d somehow always return right when you were getting ready for bed. He just knows, ya know.
Most of the time, you lay beside him with your head on his chest and an arm around his torso. Kaeya would rate this a 9 out of 10 for reasons he wouldn’t disclose, but you were sure one point was deducted just because he couldn’t easily give you kisses like that.
However, some nights this wasn’t the case. Sometimes, after having one too many to drink that night, he’d find a comfy spot in the bed beside you, wrap his arms around you and rest his head in the crook of your neck.
He’d place sloppy kisses on your exposed skin, chuckling a little to himself for no reason. You’d chide him for drinking too much to which he’d reply with, “You’re so cute when you lecture me,” before hiccupping. “You’re just the cutest,” he’d slur and a soft sigh exhaled across your skin would signal to you that he was finally asleep and wouldn’t be waking up until late the next day.
Itto:
Not exactly sure why, but Itto insists that you sleep on top of him. Not that you’re complaining. It was rather comfortable.
Since your head would be on his chest, you could hear his heartbeat clearly, which always lulled you to sleep very quickly. His arms would wrap around you in a nice hug.
Yeah, good luck trying to get up or leave. Itto was not letting that happen.
And it’s not like you could leave without waking him up. He was a light sleeper, so the slightest move would cause him to stir. He knows exactly what he’s doing.
Your only fear was if he rolled over, which hasn’t happened yet, but you always have that little thought in your head. At this point, it’s just an irrational fear of yours.
Oh, and whereas this sleeping position of y’all’s might warrant some chuckles, the Arataki gang does not even pretend like they’re amused by this.
Itto will definitely challenge them to an all or nothing onikabuto fight. You’re not sure what the “all or nothing” implies, but you know Itto’s pretty harmless, so you assume it’s nothing bad.
At least… you hope it’s not.
Thoma:
Thoma is always exhausted when it’s time for bed! He’s been doing all sorts of stuff for the Kamisato household and now that there’s a new outlander in town, he’s been dealing with that, too.
So when you two are in bed, he clings to you, wrapping his arms around you and placing his head on your chest. He just wants to take it easy before he has to do it all again tomorrow.
On the days where he’s not exhausted and yearning for your touch after a stressful day, the roles are reversed. But when is this man not running all over Inazuma helping out whoever he can?
(And when he is not yearning for you? Hello, this man is head over heels for you!)
Sometimes you wish he’d just sit still and take a day off, but you know that’s not going to happen. No matter how many times you and the Kamisato siblings tell him it’s okay to slow down, he just can’t. But, you have to admit, when he winds down for the night and is all snuggly and warm, you do love those moments just as much as when he’s not falling asleep as soon as his head hits the pillows.
And when you play his hair!! Yes, please!! Braid it, tie it up, give him silly hair do’s – he loves it!! Literally helps him get to sleep faster.
Albedo:
Albedo rarely went to bed with you. He’d always be up late, taking notes or continuing an experiment he was working on until it was finished or completed enough to his satisfaction.
The times he would go to bed with you, he’d stay up with his nose deep in a book while you laid at his lap, sleeping peacefully.
The times he wouldn’t go to bed with you, though, would be much different, as expected.
He wouldn’t want to wake you up, since he knew sleep was important (to everyone except him, apparently), so he’d settle for just occupying the space beside you. He’d make no move to touch you, afraid the slightest movement would cause you to stir.
He’d fall asleep with his back to you on the opposite side of the bed, only to wake up in the morning with you spooning him.
Or, on other occasions, he’d wake up face to face with you in the center of the bed, hands intertwined between the both of you.
He had no preference, really, but he was starting to think being spooned was one of the best things in life.
Scaramouche:
Would insist on sleeping back-to-back. You expected as much, but you kind of wished Scara would at least make an attempt at physical affection.
But he did! Just in secret hehe.
He’d wait until you fell asleep to roll over and spoon you and after a while, he’d drape an arm over your torso to hold you closer to him.
Sometimes you’d be awake to witness this and would smile to yourself, not understanding why he couldn’t do this when he thought you were awake. You had been together long enough anyways, so it wouldn’t be a surprise for you to see him affectionate.
Unfortunately, it was starting to be a surprise when he was affectionate since it was so rare. Maybe he was just trying to keep you on your toes…
Nevertheless, you’d both fall asleep like that, and sometime during the night, his hand would slip underneath the shirt you wore to rest comfortingly on your stomach.
You can guarantee that this display of affection would be gone in the morning. He always woke up before you, so by the time you stirred, he’d already be up and out of bed, leaving no sign of any cuddles.
Xiao:
Just trying to get Xiao to sleep with you was a battle. You knew as a yaksha he didn’t need to sleep and he wouldn’t, but just trying to convince him to at least pretend was like talking to a wall.
It wasn’t until you told him that it’d help comfort you at night since you were wary of being alone sometimes. He couldn’t just leave you to yourself then, right?
He was definitely super rigid at first. Not only had he no experience with this sort of thing, he felt awkward being in this position. He settled for just sitting beside you and to make him feel better, you let him (though one day you were going to get him to cuddle you!).
He’d be sitting up, his legs outstretched in front of him while you laid beside him with your head in his lap. For the first couple of weeks, his arms were either crossed in front of his chest or out beside him. But he slowly got comfortable with touching you.
He’d gently stroke your hair as you slept or place a comforting hand on your arm.
The only downside to all of this was if and when he had to leave during the night to protect Liyue. He’d try his best to slip out of the bed as quietly as possible, but he could never do it just right and leave you awake and saying quiet goodbyes to him. Those were always the worst.
Zhongli:
Ideally, Zhongli would like to spoon you when bedtime rolled around.
However, most of the time, you’d end up sprawled across his legs or curled up in his lap as he told you endless stories to help you sleep.
Don’t get me wrong, he enjoyed this just as much. Sometimes he wondered, though, if the reason you always fell asleep during these times was because you thought he was boring. This was not true, as you quite enjoyed his stories.
But, since he’d tell you them when you were sleepy and curled up next to him and his deep voice just gave you a wonderful sense of comfort, you couldn’t help but doze off when he’d tell you some little snippet of Liyue’s history.
The position would be similar to that of you and Xiao’s, though, Zhongli would not be uncomfortable with holding you or running his fingers through your hair. That, and you weren’t exactly always confined to his side. Sometimes you’d laid out across his legs, as said before, in between them, or even just sitting up next to him with your head on his shoulder.
It really didn’t matter to Zhongli, though. As long as you were getting a good night’s sleep, he was content.
Venti:
Just lots and lots of cuddles honestly. You and Venti are just very loving toward each other, so bedtime is just full of cuddles.
It can range from spooning to just holding each other, to whatever y’all are feeling at the moment. I feel like y’all would mostly settle for just holding each other tight, face-to-face so you can pepper kisses on each other cheeks when needed hehe.
(According to Venti, they’re always needed.)
Venti is away a lot due to his free spirit, so when he comes home to you, you both want to spend as much time as possible with each other.
So pretty much you’re both just in each other’s arms until he leaves again.
I think like Xiao, though, when the time to leave comes, it’s always heartbreaking since he can’t even leave without you waking up since you’re both so close and tightly embraced. Sorrowful goodbyes are whispered to each other, and small kisses planted all over your face before he departs.
He never wants to leave, but sometimes he has to. But you know he’ll always be back sometime. The constant breeze flowing through your open windows during all hours of the day lets you know as much.
Aether:
Being Aether’s travelling companion has gotten you used to staying in weird inns and small tents pitched in the middle of nowhere. Before spending your time with him, you definitely wouldn’t have been able to live like this, or even if you were alone. Between Aether’s comforting presence and Paimon’s comedic relief, the otherwise uncomfortable trips were made pleasant to you.
Aether knew you were a bit timid when it came to new places. After meeting you during his stay in Mond, he asked you to accompany him on his travels to other places. You were very apprehensive, since you had never left Mondstadt before. But Aether reassured you that nothing bad would happen to you on his watch, and Paimon said she’d beat him up if he did let something bad happen to you. Nonetheless, you were welcomed to his travelling team with open arms!
With you being so nervous in new areas where danger seemed to lurk around every corner, you couldn’t help but always curl up right beside the blonde when nightfall came around. You’d have your head on his chest and an arm holding him to you – not out of force but out of reassurance he was still there and hadn’t left you.
Sometimes Aether opted to sleep on his side, in which case your head would be underneath his chin and your body close to his, each with an arm loosely around each other.
Sometimes, you’d be embarrassed by your display of affection when the morning came, but Aether’s good morning kisses always reassured you that he enjoys every second of your company.

He’s so cute…. (Thoma, Xiao, Diluc, Gorou)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
…_…_…_…_…
Thoma is the cutest in the morning. His bedhead is endearing, his eyes are barely open and he can’t bring himself to pull away from you. When you play with his hair he leans into your touch, a sleepy smile spreading across his freckled face. He doesn’t want to get up, doesn’t want to leave your side, Thoma wishes he could freeze time and just lay in bed all day long.
You can easily read his expressions. Little does Thoma know, he’s an open book when he’s half asleep. You can see just how smitten he is as he snuggles into your chest ‘so sweet’ you whisper, pressing a kiss to the top of his head. Thoma smiles against your skin, reaching up to hold your hand ‘mm…you’re sweeter’ he replies. In this moment, housekeeping isn’t a top priority…
…_…_…_…_…
Xiao is adorable as he assimilates to mortal culture. You two walk arm-in-arm past different food stalls, chatting as you do. You watch as he observes a man shaping cotton candy. ‘Do you want some? I’ll get it for you,’ you offer but he shakes his head, moving to walk away. You decide to get some to share, of course you’d just let him have it but you had to lie just a little, smiling as you get in line.
The pink, bunny shaped cotton candy earned a slight eye roll from the adeptus but he couldn’t deny his own curiosity. He has a sweet tooth after all. The two of you sat on a bench and you watched as his eyes lit up when a ball of sugary fluff hit his tongue. It took all of your energy to not giggle when his cheeks puffed out as he ate. So cute… if only you had your camera with you <3
…_…_…_…_…
Diluc has his fair share of soft, sweet moments. Diluc is, in a way, the big brother (or adoptive father) of Mondstadt. Despite his cold exterior, he harbors warmth and love for all in his heart. At the Windblume festival, you stand by his side, laughing gleefully as he plays Bullseye Balloons with the local children. A bow isn’t his weapon of choice but he’s far better at it than any of the little kiddos are… Yet mysteriously, he’s lost all skill he had in that field the second the game starts.
Every move he makes is calculated. He really had to try in order to miss some of the targets, especially the ones right in front of him, but Diluc missed those too. He ended up with 5 measly points while everyone else had around 20. The children all screeched with joy, jumping around as they won prizes for their archery skill, shouting back at Diluc ‘Did you see that! I hit that really far one!!’ He spared a rare smile, ruffling their hair while listening to their excited chatter. Later on, when it’s just the two of you, he does admit that he probably could have scored a few more points instead of taking such a drastic loss :’)
…_…_…_…_…
Gorou loves you so dearly. When he comes home from a long day of general duties, he’s eager to eat with you! His tail wags with glee as he eats the dinner you made him, watching with wide eyes as you tell him about your day. Gorou craves this sweet, domestic life. Coming home to a homemade meal, snuggling in fresh sheets, gossipy pillow talk while you two discuss coworkers and friends, the feeling of your hands in his hair or your lips on his cheek.
Once dishes are clean and put away, you pull him in by his hips, sliding your hands up his toned back to scratch behind his ears. His eyes slide shut and he smiles a dopey lil smile. He tells you about his new recruits, how they’re more eager than the previous group, his tail wagging and stress melting out of him as he remains in your embrace. Ahhhh U-U he’s so so cute when he’s feeling relaxed <3

his dream
diluc x reader , sfw
cw : fem reader (refers to you as mother when talking about having children), mentions of sex, though nothing explicit. just fluff other than that <33 , established relationship
a/n : oh to have diluc helplessly in love with you :( also made this while listening to Amore mio Aiutami
reblogs are appreciated!
Tumblr media
Diluc, who doesn’t go a morning without kissing you on the forehead before leaving for work. Who doesn’t miss the opportunity to write you a note and leave flowers on the nightstand for you to find when you wake.
Diluc, who thinks of you when he sees a pretty Cecilia while strolling through the woods, who sees you in every beautiful moment he comes across.
Diluc, who tries to have lunch with you every noon to show that he cares, because he knows that he’s closed off, and is afraid that his love for you won’t show itself the way he wants it to. Afraid because he realizes that you’re so much more than he deserves, and that you might leave him because he wasn’t enough.
Diluc, who takes you on picnics every Sunday, who makes sure to bring your favorite pastries because he loves the way your nose scrunches when you taste something sweet. He who wipes the frosting off your cheek when you get too messy, and he who walks you home, hand in hand.
Diluc, who apologizes for not being with you more, for being so busy, and for putting himself at risk. Diluc who smiles at you lovingly when you tell him it’s okay and that you understand, and that you’ll always be there for him.
Diluc, who cooks dinner with you because he loves the simple domesticity of it. Who helps you prepare a hearty meal for the both of you to share while you recall the events that happened throughout the day. The fireplace crackling behind the both of you, a soft ambience wafting through the air.
Diluc, who prefers to make love with you. Soft touches and loving words are all you know when you’re with him, whether it be the way he whispers how much he loves and cherishes you in your ear, or the way he kisses you gently while your body rocks with his thrusts.
Diluc, who wants a family so bad with you. Who wants to give you the family you deserve, to have beautiful children with you. And Diluc, who knows that you’ll be a wonderful mother some day.
Diluc, who kisses you tenderly and utters promises of him coming back home safely after his darknight duties. Diluc, who feels pain in his heart when he has to leave you for the night, but knows he has to do this for your safety and Mond’s. And diluc, who knows that you understand and accepts what he has to do.
Diluc, who comes home to find you asleep in your shared bed, snuggled up in a warm quilt while the fireplace illuminates the bedroom in a warm amber. Diluc, who gets into bed and finds his place behind you to embrace you. His arms wrapped around your waist as he kisses your shoulder before whispering his last “I love you” for the day.
Diluc, who’s grateful for having you in his life, and diluc, who prays to every archon that you’ll never leave his side.

it’s ya anon 🦋 again😈😈😈 I want to say. You don’t have to make this into a story at all. Just sending brain rot. But like. Having multiple little moth baby’s. Imagine them all cuddling you as you try to sleep ok your bed. Some sleep on your stomach the others sleep by your neck and sides. Then one just lays flat on your face. Little baby’s always trot behind you at home as you do things because they want to be around you 24/7. When you have to work the poor things sit by the door and watch it until you come back. And once you do. Be prepared for getting jumped by little moth baby’s. They’d purr and rub your body happily as your back. Also like. IMAGINE A WORLD OF WHERE ITS THE MODERN WORLD AND OTHER PEOPLE HAVE OTHER PETS LIKE CHILDE. Like example little bird diluc. But like imagine having someone bring over a pet and baby getting clingy because poor baby sees the person as compaction. Oh my god. I have so much more to say but I’ll send it to you later 😈 hope you are well!
ANON PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR FORGETTING TO ANSWER THIS THIS IS SO CUTE <3333
all the little Foul Legacies clamor for the spot on your face, that's just a fact. that and the one on your stomach- those are the best spots!! usually you let them decide who gets to sleep where, but sometimes you're exhausted and just want to get to bed so you scoop up one of the mini Foul Legacies and hold him against you, that usually makes the others calm down and curl up!! often enough after a tired night you'll wake up with ALL the Foul Legacies snuggled into your stomach, because they know that's where you like them to be best (mostly because you don't have to worry about accidentally smushing them in your sleep <33)
whenever you're walking around the house you have one Foul Legacy curled around your shoulders and one snuggled in your arms!! sometimes another will even make himself comfy on your head while the others follow, and any time you sit down you're immediately swarmed as they all attempt to sit on your lap. you've taken to leaving your office door open so they don't get lonely (once you reminded them that they're surrounded by each other but all the Foul Legacies insisted that it wasn't the same) and they know not to disturb you while you're working so instead they curl up on your lap, the edge of your desk, the cushions and blankets you've set out- it's very cozy and peaceful, and for some reason you tend to get a lot more work done when all the Foul Legacies are in the room!!
OHHH MY GOODNESS THAT LAST IDEA IS SO GOOD- especially if Childe was taken in by you when no one else wanted him because he was an Abyssal creature- he sees the other person who came to visit and wonders if they'll take you away, take his home away... he whimpers and clings to you, hiding under the blanket you've draped over your legs so he doesn't have to look at the person but can still be near you. whichever creature they're keeping is perfect, unlike him, so why would you ever stay? it's only after the person is gone and he's pressing himself into your stomach, little claws wrapped around you, that you laugh kindly and pet his hair, promising that you'd never leave. to you, Childe is perfect the way he is, and nothing will ever change that <3

the one before galatea moves in with diluc
Lately, it seems Galatea has been working tirelessly, pushing herself past her limits.
She and Diluc were discussing plans for tonight’s mission, when she collapsed in front of him.
For the second time since they’ve known each other. He rushes to catch her before she reaches the ground, cradling her gently in her arms.
Wonderful. Now he’s worried, and he’ll have to either go alone, or give up his duties for the night to take care of her.
“Dearest, look at me,” he calls. She blinks at him. “Are you alright?”
She knows he’s anything but calm right now, but he feigns it. For her sake.
Galatea intertwines her fingers with his. “I’ll be okay.” Though it’s not very reassuring for her to say that when he’s having to hold her up.
He places one hand on her forehead, checking her temperature. “You’re burning up, dear.” Galatea laughs, awkwardly. "I'm fine, I promise."
“Did you sleep last night?” Questions Diluc. “Not much. I tried my best, but I was plagued by nightmares.”
That’s where the problem lies. “We need to get you to rest, then.” 
And she wants to beg him not to make her, not when the world of her dreams is such a hellish place, but she nods anyway.
He lifts her up, holding her close to his chest in a bridal carry. “I’ll rest with you,” he says.
Galatea apologizes. She must be heavy, after all. Diluc gives her a sweet smile. 
He’s been doing that more often, lately. He’s beautiful when he smiles at her.
“You’re not heavy, and I enjoy carrying you.” She thinks him insane, a true mad man.
He would do anything for her, though. Absolutely anything, and he wants to make sure she knows.
He brings her upstairs to his room, setting her down on the bed.
“I have a nightgown for you, let me retrieve it,” says Diluc, leaving the room to fetch the garment for her.
It’s white and frilly, brand new too. “I wanted to buy you clothes for when you’re staying here.”
It looks expensive, feels expensive. Galatea narrows her eyes at him. “Don’t spend so much money on me,” she reprimands. Diluc scoffs.
“I have more money than I know what to do with. Do you need help getting changed?” He asks. Her face goes red. “No! Go on, out with you,” she exclaims, pushing him out the door.
Diluc’s laugh sounded genuine, warming her heart.
Galatea slips out of her day clothes and into the nightgown he so lovingly picked out for her. She figures he eyeballed the size, but it fits her wonderfully, ruffles hitting right below her knees.
She opens the door, peeking her head out to invite him back in. His face lights up when she gives him a small twirl, watching as the fabric spins around.
“You’re gorgeous,” he says in a tone which makes it obvious he was thinking out loud.
She giggles, flushing pink. Diluc walks up to her, putting his hands on her waist and walking her backwards towards the bed. He leans down to capture her in a short, sweet kiss. Letting his lips trail her jaw to her neck and collarbone.
“I could get you sick,” she whispers. “That won’t stop me from showing you affection,” he replies.
“Let’s get you some sleep,” Diluc says softly. She nods, letting him lay her down.
She catches his wrist when he walks away from her. “You know I can’t sleep in what I’m wearing. I’ll be right back, love.” She lets go of him reluctantly, allowing him to change into pajamas in a different room.
When he’s returned, she’s already asleep. No sign of panic on her face, just calm, steady breaths leaving her parted lips.
Diluc climbs into bed beside her, and she instantly moves to snuggle into his chest.
He smiles, petting her head with one hand. She’s adorable, truly.
He wouldn’t have chosen anyone else. He wonders if they’ll be married, one day.
Galatea helps bring life to the winery once again. He’s found he wants her by his side at all times.
Like he’s a wreck when they’re not together. And it seems she is, too.
He looks at her, moonlight shining on her skin. She looks so peaceful when she’s here with him.
It’s soon, but he’s been thinking of inviting her to live with him.
She would get more rest, that way. She would be taken care of.
This is her home, after all, even if she isn’t living here yet. It will always be her home.
Diluc pulls her closer as he drifts off into sleep.
Later that month, Galatea comes to him ill, having snuck out with a bag of clothes.
And he still thinks it’s rather soon, but he welcomes her anyway. She’s safe here, warm and finally at home.
Diluc has the best doctors in Teyvat look over her case. Barbara comes over at times to keep the symptoms at bay using her Vision.
Soon enough, she can move around. Her survival is dubbed a miracle, yet again.
She scoffs, but truthfully, she couldn’t be happier.
Galatea helps Adalinde with dinner, she cleans around the manor when the other maids are having trouble, and she spends the rest of her days reading by the fire.
Diluc begins training her, and she masters her weapon alarmingly quickly.
And it’s peaceful, this little life she’s made.
She used to dream of a peaceful life, and now she finally has it.
The future is bright, she thinks.
She’s almost excited to see what life has in store for her.

You know ur small predicament post?? you should make a reverse version where s/o is smaller!
A Smaller Predicament [Genshin Impact x Smol!Reader]
Tumblr media
Characters: Scaramouche, Diluc, Kaeya, Childe, Xiao, Zhongli, Albedo
Synopsis: Not only did you shrink, you went pocket sized as well!
(A sequel to "A Small Predicament")
(A/n): Sorry for the long wait anon, and I kind of added a twist to the scenario for more diversity hahaha hope you don't mind >_<. And why is Childe the poster boy for this series lmao.
------------
Childe
When Childe walks in, he doesn't see you....until he looked down. He almost crunched you beneath his feet if it weren't for your constant flailing of arms and screeching voice. He blanks out for a hot minute as you clung onto his toes, doesn't dare to move an inch because he's so petrified (even though there's nothing to be afraid of??). But honestly if Childe moved right now, he might accidentally flail you to the side and that's the last thing he wants.
"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU??" He screamed so loud it nearly blew you out of proportion. Seems like he's going to have alot of adjusting to do. Childe is a tall man (canonically the tallest) and he knows how impulsive he can get which is why he bought a handmade dollhouse from one of the Liyue merchants for you to stay in.
Though there's something about your tiny size that makes his heart flutter. With your face so small with a pair of eyes far too big, *clutches chest* "My oujo-chan is so cute" -Childe probably. He won't stop saying them over again and you were growing tired of his gushing reactions. He can't help it. He wants to spoil you rotten. You fit right onto the flat of his palms, the way you just snuggle up againts his finger and he just- swoons, might tear up (bruh).
Toys may be for kids but for Childe it was now his favourite pass time. While you navigate around the wooden dollhouse, he pitches in by moving around the furniture to make it easier for you. Offers to carry you through the rooms like a personal elevator. And please, please let him tuck you to bed. He has to pinch his fingers to grab the blanket. It's so adorable to him.
Loves it when you snuggle up against his collar. He thinks it would be the best area for you to be nearby him since the risk of you getting hit by anything (or him) by accident is very slim chance. Sometimes he pulls up his collar so that you're more comfortable and cradled within. He would have to avert his eyes down rather than turning his head if he wanted to look at you otherwise you'd be hit by his chin and that would hurt.
The poking sensation with you by his neck can bother him since he's veeeery tickilish there. Plus, Childe can get easily sweaty so have fun with that.
You have a feeling that he wasn't so pleased when you transformed back. You might be right. Actually, you are right. He secretly has an extra potion hidden somewhere...just in case.
Diluc
Mortified, his soul just left his body. To think things couldn't get any worse ever since he turned into a child to the point no one took him seriously, now you're literally the size of an apple. Oh god what if his bird suddenly swoops in and gobbles you right up? Or the wrath of the wind comes by, swirling you away towards a tornado. Needless to say, Diluc grew paranoid over your well-being ever since.
Due to your extremely small size, he will ensure that you are supervised by him (except at night where he has places to go). In otherwords, you're slipped into the inner pocket of his coat. It's super warm, you can fall asleep (and feel his heartbeat awww). Diluc doesn't like keeping you in places where people can see you, it would be too easy for outer things to access your tiny form (or maybe he secretly likes the feeling of you in his pocket.)
And he's such a gentleman about it. You noticed how careful he moves among his footsteps because he's worried that you might get dizzy. Diluc guards the pocket at close parameter, keeping an eye on things so he won't bump into them. As if he was treading on thin ice (you even suggested it was best to leave you home but he's too overprotective for his own good).
You're like his little assistant. Diluc does so much paperwork through out the day and although the act was small, he finds it endearing how you would help bring the papers back to it's rightful pile or pushing the ink bowl towards him. Or during his shifts at Angel's Share, crawling around the glass utensils and trying to find a specific wine beverage on his shelf. Of course that only happens when the shop is closed, how is he going to explain to his patrons that you shrank and now live in his pocket?
He dislikes the thought of you wandering too far. It's so easy for you to get lost especially when the mansion is so large.
At night you now sleep atop the fluff of the pillow. Diluc is a calm sleeper so he won't have to worry about hitting into you. However he radiates warmth so you just subconicously roll towards to his face. He usually wakes up with you sprawled over his nose. He can hardly breath (careful, he might just sneeze too).
This all happened because of the experiements you participated with Albedo. Diluc ensures that doesn't happen again. It will take some tencaious effort to convince him otherwise.
Scaramouche
Fuck this guy. He treats you like his new pet, a new toy (though you technically are one). He has this arrogant, smug and sadistic look as if he was a predator looking at his prey and grabs you by the collar before dangling you up in the air.
"Hmph, looks like the tables have turned," he says while toying with your state. You tell him he's just angry because he's short himself and mad that everyone else in the Fatui organization is taller than him. Scaramouche demon face activated. He's about to devour you. (Maybe you should keep your mouth shut this time. Honestly your relationship with him is pretty weird).
His hat is so fun to play with. You'd swing around like Tarzan using the strings that were hanging from it. His head was your playground now which annoys him to an enourmous extent because it makes him look ridiculous. Scaramouche will have a hard time catching you since you move around so much. Climb around him, especially the back of his neck. He'll start wheezing when you tickle him there.
The type to put you in a box but also the type to keep you on his shoulders. Being relied on makes him feel taller (lmfao). Scaramouche seemse to have developed a habit to poke your cheeks whenever he needed your attention and you bit him back once when he pushed too hard that you nearly fell off. Despite your size, your teeth still hurt. He threatens to put you back into the box if you don't behave and the outcome ends with a full out brawl as he tries to grab you again while you run around, pulling the strands of his hair to climb on top of his hat. (This is literally Tom and Jerry wtf.)
After transforming back, he outwardly admits his disappointmen. Scaramouche says it suits you better (when he actually meant that he highly prefers you small). You marked his words, keeping an extra vial for your own entertainment in the near future.
Xiao
Xiao was face-palming against his forehead real hard about this. For the love of Rex Lapis, what kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into this time? First it was the child incident, now you're the size of his finger? Good grief, looks like he will have to keep an eye on you from now on but at the same time he's scared to get too close, you are nothing but a tiny mortal in which he would have to double his effort to look after.
He lets you sit at the crown of his head rather than anywhere else. You insisted since it was easier to see everything at a nice distance (plus he's short so you won't have to worry about him bumping into door frames). You noticed that Xiao also has a little strand sticking out from the center (ahoge) and you sometimes grab onto it for stability. Turns out he's quite sensitive there and winces when you pull too hard.
For the remaining week as the antedote was being prepared, Xiao became extremely aggressive over your well-being, he looks as if he's ready to massacre everything in his way...which he did. Clears out the monsters off the path before going on daily strolls with you, you wouldn't have to lift a finger from now on. No one except for him is allowed to hold you unless they're a trustworthy person. You could feel his sharp eyes glued on you like a hawk when walking into the grasp of Zhongli's hand.
You once accidentally tripped into his almond tofu when he wasn't looking and he almost ate you. Turns out being small made his job as your gaurdian ten times harder (especially when you're the clumsy type). If you were to fall off the table, he would have to catch you right? Xiao often bumps into furnitures in the process...ouch!
He's very soft. It's all over his forehead, his mouth, his eyes. When he looks at you, his tense eatures melted away and there's an invisible fondness over them as he cradles you in his palm. The way you snuggle in them is lke the most precious thing in the world.
When you turn back, there's a wave of relief. He was really stressed out you know?
Zhongli
His first thought is to get you as far as he can from the Funeral Parlour before Hu Tao finds you. Who knows what that child might have in mind. Zhongli takes one of his empty tea pots and urges you to go inside, or carries a tea cup with you in it, he likes placing you on objects while carrying you around.
Zhongli realizes that you can no longer use the household items like before so he has to remake them to your standards- especially when he realized he doesn't have the mora to buy you a dollhouse. He improvises. Takes a handkerchief to make your blanket, his cups for your bathtub, Zhongli had to cut the foot into byte-sized too. But in terms of clothes, well he had to make them as well. Living thousands of years would mean he would have lot of experience. Sewing was one of them luckily. But that would mean he has to take your measurements as well. In the end, most of the things he made were dresses since they were alot easier.
You like to sneak in between his shirt and his vest tucked behind the coat he wears. Unfortunately Zhongli doesn't seem to have visible pockets (most likely the reason why he doesn't carry mora either), though if you don't hold on tight you might just slip down his vest and right to his stomach. It makes him chuckle when that happens even if the amount of effort to get you out took more than he thought since his attire is quite complicated to put on. If you really want to climb on him, he'll find a seperate pouch (but realizes it won't be a good idea when there's alot of pick-pocketers in Liyue streets).
All of a sudden he reads you bedtime stories. It's some sort of inner instinct that tells him he's taking care of a child now (he's right though). You realized that his voice was equivalent to a thunder's roar due to size difference. He would have to whisper now.
It will always be part of his precious memories when you turned pocket-sized. Zhongli still keeps the clothing he made somewhere in his closets too.
Kaeya
Amused by this eventful situation. Absolutely thrilled! He's not evil like Scaramouche but this new version of his s/o is both adorable and fun at the same time. You're so easy to tickle, just one poke using his finger against your hips makes you yelp. Sometimes he twirls your hair or taps your forehead gently despite your protest, he's so handsy like always in an affectionate yet annoying way.
Kaeya picks you up and places you among the fluffy comfort of his feathery scarf. You sneezed, the last time he cleaned it was before he went on a mission with the knights. Though you have to admit, it's the best feeling in the world. It's so soft you might sink deeper into the fabric. He likes to put you in places where he can talk to you easily, sometimes on the table while he downs on his wine. Normally you have to take the bottle away before it gets too much, now you have to push it away which he finds very entertaining at your futile attempts.
"Don't you have anything better to do?" you tell him. Since you turned byte-sized, he can't seem to stop playing around. Takes his two fingers and pretends they're legs walking across the surface. You would turn around and he halts, Kaeya sends you his signature grin. When he promises that he wouldn't do anything funny, you would let him hold you. Since hugs are out of the equation, Kaeya gives you his finger instead to wrap your arms around. He can't get enough seeing you like this, things he couldn't do when you were normal-sized. he enjoys your reactions way too much.
His favourite pass time is helping you brush your hair because the hairbursh is too big for you to handle. Kaeya ensure he's handling things delicately but he would love to help style it for you as well. Pretty please? At this point one request turns to another because he's having way too much fun. But it couldn't be helped since you would need his assistance in almost everything so there's really no escaping.
You were so happy when things were normal again but Kaeya would bring this up again during your conversations (how next time he would like to put you in his drinks while you're wearing a swim suit).
Albedo
Legit blurted out if he could put you on a hamster wheel.
What about trying out the little maze he just made?
Or participating in a race against slimes of different elements?
No? Okay, then he'll just turn you back.
Albedo isn't going deal with this as along as he can help it (especially when he remembers what Klee did to him when he turned small.)

when he realizes he loves you pt. 2
Characters: Thoma, Itto, Albedo, Scaramouche, Gorou Warnings: none A/N: to kick off the new year with new writing, here's some pure fluff pt 1 here (xiao, childe, zhongli, diluc, kazuha)
Tumblr media
thoma contrary to popular belief, thoma’s quite a busy person. when he’s not tending to the kamisato home, he’s out and about running errands across inazuma under the name of the yashiro commission. in all honesty, he hardly gets time for a break and there are days when the kamisato siblings have to force thoma to take the day off. but when he settles into his well deserved vacation, thoma will spend every waking moment of it with you. in his mind, nothing ever beats the sight of waking up alongside you and not having to drag himself out of bed before slipping away to start off the day. instead, he can liee and enjoy the moment, watching as the sun begins to peak through the window and illuminate your face.
“i can feel you staring.” your eyes are still closed and your words are slurred and laced with sleep but thoma thinks you’re just as lovely as always. and when your eyes flutter open and you’re squinting up at his smiling face, the first thing you do is snuggle closer to him. thoma hopes you can’t hear his heart thundering in his chest, but who is he kidding. you’re pressed up close to him, breathing softly against his chest and holding him as if you were afraid he would slip from your grasp. today will be a slow day, but it’ll be perfect one with you. and if these are the moments thoma can look forward to in the future every morning, he knows he’ll treasure every single second.
“go back to sleep.” he chuckles at your words but doesn’t move away, only shifting closer to you, a smile present upon his face even as his own eyes shut.
itto an absolute menace to society. those were the words you clearly recall kujou sara grumbling under her breath when she stalked past you to scold itto. granted, you couldn’t blame her this time. the trouble he had gotten into himself today was entirely his fault and due to his mischievious desire to bend the rules just a tad bit. you only stood there in amusement, leaning against a shaded maple tree as itto guiltily apologized to kujou sara and the owner of the shop that now had a massive hole in the side. he glances over at you, ready to walk over and itto nearly trips over his own feet. because under the maple tree, you stand their with the brightest grin, eyes crinkling with amusement and hands moving to cover your mouth almost in embarrassment. you’re a joyous sight.
“don’t laugh at my failures!” he protests but he doesn’t mean any of it. if anything, itto wants to see that smile of yours everyday. you look so free, so happy and filled with joy and itto wants nothing more than to capture the moment forever. and though his fingers itch at his side to pull out his kamera, he’s far too entranced with you. itto’s never been one to want to feel “tied down” as some may phrase it, but if he gets the chance to make you laugh and see that sparkle in your eyes for the rest of his life, he’ll spend every moment trying.
albedo dragonspine is cold, clearly. and despite the fact that you’re bundled up in coats, gloves over your freezing hands and a little bounce with each step in an attempt to stay warm, you’re still cold. it was your fault to decide to come up to the mountains, wanting to spend more time with your busy alchemist, but after a few hours you quickly came to the realization that the dragonspine weather wasn’t for you. albedo however, didn’t seem to be bothered one bit. even with part of his skin exposed to the frigid weather, albedo continued to take notes and sketch as if there was nothing wrong at all. but if there was one thing you truly adored about the weather was the snow.
“love, can you—“ albedo stopped, mouth parted as he stared at you standing just a few feet away from you. you weren’t even paying attention to him, head tilted up as you stared up at the snow that fell softly around you. it clung to your lashes and brushed against your face, glistening ever so slightly in the light of the afternoon sun. he watches the way a smile pulls up on your lips and the way your breath comes out in puffs of white and suddenly all his desires to paint the landscape are gone. because you’re standing right there, looking as ethereal as ever, bathed in a snowy sunlight and a look of awe etched upon your features. and as you’re far too caught up in admiring the beauty of the snow around you, you miss the way albedo looks at you in the same way.
scaramouche the slam of a door and mumbles of curses directed towards a certain ginger haired harbinger are what greet you as you peek your head around the corner of your home. his hat pulled from his head, and hair slightly messy from running his hair through it, scaramouche looks like he’s a second away from blasting the next closest thing to him with his vision. it’s evident he’s returned from a bad day, his attitude enough to scare away any other person around him. the fatui agents by your door cast him a wary look before glancing at you nervously.
“what are you staring at? mind you own damn business!” his voice snaps you back to the present as he stalks past you, grumbling under his breath once more. there’s another slam of the door and you sigh, nodding to the agents before slipping further into the house. you find the harbinger sulking in your room, arms crossed over his chest as he paces in front of his desk. he’s so caught up in his own words that he doesn’t notice the way you cross the room and stand in front of him, holding his shoulders as you stop him. he doesn’t have time to react when you press a kiss to his forehead and mumble, “relax, please?” he blinks, taken aback by your actions before he’s scowling and pushing you back softly, complaining about your kiss. but you can see the hint of a smile that’s on his face and the blush that’s crept up on his cheeks. and just as you leave the room to leave him be, scaramouche calls to you, telling you he’ll come out in a bit. you don’t see his face but he watches your figure leave the room with a smile on his face and a warm feeling creepin gin his chest.
gorou if anyone ever asks him, gorou would firmly deny the accusation that he enjoys it when someone pets just between his ears or brushes his tail. he’s the general of the watatsumi island resistance for archons sake! and yet he doesn’t show any sign of wanting to move as you’re cuddled up in a secluded area beneath sakura blossoms in inazuma city. you’re sitting crossed legged against the tree truck with gorou’s head in your lap, your hands scratching gently around his twitching ears. eyes closed and soft breaths leaving his lips, the general feels as if he could fall asleep right then and there.
“take a nap, i’m not going anywhere.” you seem to read his thoughts with your words and his eyes flicker open to look up at you. you’re upside down from his perspective but he sees all of your features perfectly. a sakura blossom falls on top of his nose, but as quickly as it was there, it’s replaced by a light kiss. the general knows his cheeks are burning at your actions but he can’t help but stare up at you with such adoration. because it’s moments like these that gorou appreciates the most, and if he could, he would spend each waking moment just like this. no one else but you and gorou and the sakura blossoms falling around you.
“oh? what an adorable sight.” the voice has gorou shooting up in an instant, his eyes wild as he locks in on yae miko smirking at the two of you from the bridge she stands on. there’s a knowing look in her eyes and gorou nearly groans out loud. the moment’s been ruined far too quickly.
Tumblr media
comments and reblogs are greatly appreciated :)
A/N: good luck to everyone pulling tmrw!! idek if i want to pull for shenhe even though i really want her bc i also rly want yae miko lmao

General relationship headcanons with genshin boys
“Since it's open, what about general headcanons for the boys? ;0 like what's it like to be with them for a headstart :D”
i was originally going to make six characters, then five, but then i accidentally deleted th draft and had to start all over again. i already feel bad for posting late so i’m sorry it’s just four and not five :( i’ll probably make a part 2 of these soon!!
characters: diluc, kaeya, scaramouche and xiao
Diluc
The beginning of the relationship was slow, painfully slow. So slow that a certain bard and the one and only Cavalry Captain had to step up, since neither of you would make the first step. Both of you were too scared of rejection, so you decided to swallow your feelings and “face” reality.
A few pick up lines over here, a jealousy scene over there, and the result was a very angry and flustered Diluc taking your hand and leading you upstairs for some privacy. It was then and there when he confessed his feelings for you, a sigh of relief leaving him when you reciprocated.
Both of you are private people, so you decided that keeping the relationship away from the public eye would be the best option. Sure, affection was reduced to an extent but that doesn’t mean that the relationship lacks love!
Affection in public meant exchanging soft glances and shy smiles from across the room, interlocking of pinkies and stealing kisses when nobody was looking. Very rarely, when he was feeling wild and desperate, he would drag you to somewhere secluded and push you (gently) to the nearest wall, caging you in between his arms as you wrapped your hands around his waist. Then, he kissed you slow and passionately.
Behind closed doors, the story was different. There wasn’t a single moment in which his hands weren’t touching your skin, or your hands weren’t playing with his hair as you kissed him passionately to compensate for the lost time. A kiss here, a kiss there. Again and again. A kiss for every hour you couldn’t spend together.
You found out about Diluc’s nightly activities rather quickly. It happened on a night in which he came back home slightly injured and breathless. When you questioned him, he simply said that some treasure hoarders ambushed him, but you knew he was lying. You could tell. Diluc soon realized there was no point in lying to you, so he told you his identity as the Darknight Hero.
Overall, your relationship may have started in a messy way, Diluc sometimes wishes he could have confessed in a different and more appropiate way. Your relationship may also be quiet, but quiet doesn’t mean that it lacks love. You both spend late nights and mornings in each others arms whispering sweet nothings. And your relationship may be scary at times, you often feared that he wont come back home one day. But you also know he always does, and you trust him every moment of the day. And he feels the same way. He doesn’t trust people easily, he rarely lets people in. But you are different, you make him feel different. He trusts you more than anything in the world.
Kaeya
It was no secret that Kaeya was a flirt. A few compliments over here, a charming smile over there and that was basically the formula to have most people in Mondstadt wrapped around his finger. Most people... except you. With a shy smile and an evident blush on your cheeks you were always fast to dismiss it and laugh it off. “You shouldn’t go saying those things” you used to say.
It started with a desire to make you swoon, it was like a goal for him. But eventually, he caught feelings and you were the one who made him swoon. So one day, he had enough. He wanted to confess and tell you how he actually feels.
And so he did, yet somehow you still thought it was a joke. “Kaeya you can’t say those things as a joke... someone will actually fall for it” you said, looking down at your feet as your heart started beating faster and faster by second. “I’m not joking, y/n. That’s how I truly and deeply feel about you” he said, taking your hand and placing it on his chest so you could feel how fast his heart was beating as well.
The closest word to describe your relationship with Kaeya would be that it was like an adventure, interesting and fun. You’re bored? He would take you to explore interesting (and safe) places he encountered while on his commissions. You’re sad? Nothing like him dragging you to the very top of the Cathedral and hugging you close to him as you both watch the sunset wouldn’t solve.
Kaeya’s kisses can be either quick or desperate and hungry, yet passionate. The first case usually happened whenever you two were in public, though he doesn’t have a problem with PDA. If it were up to him, he would spend every second of the day kissing you. But you’re both busy people so most times one of you is in a hurry. The second case happens when either one of you come home after a long day. It starts slow, maybe a few pecks here and there, but soon enough he picks up the pace. One hand around your waist, keeping you close to his body, and his other hand on your face, deepening the kiss. It always leaves you breathless, and he takes those few seconds you take to catch air to kiss your jaw and neck. He loves you and your body, he could spend a lifetime worshipping it.
Insecurity was somewhat a problem in the relationship, from both sides. On his side, he sometimes worried that you would get tired of him and slip away, just like most people in his life. And on your side, you feared that he would find someone who was braver, prettier and more skilled than you. But at the end of the day, even if there were times in which you argued over this problem, you both would always come home to each other. Nights would be spent in each other’s arms, constantly reassuring each other that you’re both here to stay.
Overall, dating Kaeya isn’t easy. You knew this the moment you both confessed. But it is worth it, no one makes you feel like he does, no one makes you swoon and laugh like him. And no one, and I mean, not a single person in Teyvat, could make Kaeya happier.
Scaramouche
Scaramouche was angry, to say the least. How dare you, a fellow Fatui Harbinger who he had to see almost daily, make his heart beat fast and legs shake? Why was he feeling like this? So stupid?
He thought your confession was part of a game, a dare. He saw you laughing with Childe a few moments before, and not that he would ever admit it, in fact he would rather lose his Vision and die than admit it, but he was a little bit jealous of the scene. He wanted to make you laugh like that, he wanted to make you blush and he wanted to have your heart. The moment you confessed, he was angry. He was sure it was a dare and Childe’s plan to make fun of him, but he quickly regretted it once he saw your sad face. “No, leave” he had said. Your shy smile dropped instantly and you slowly nodded, turning around and starting to walk away. His mouth opened before he could actually stop and think of what to do. “Do you mean it?” he asked. “Do you actually like me? It’s not a dare?” “Why would it be a dare? Scaramouche, I’ve liked you for a while now, everyone knows but you” you said, facing him once again only to find him trying to hide away the strong blush on his face. “Then... I think I like you too” he said, not daring to look at you.
Scaramouche was a harsh and jealous lover, he wanted you for himself. Fights were normal in your relationship, words without real meaning would be thrown at each other all the time. Yet, neither of you walked away. Neither of you verbally apologized for the harsh words either, but instead, you would let your actions apologize for you. Normal fights would be due to his jealousy, you spending a little too much time with Childe or other Harbingers for his liking. Yes, he knows you love him and yes, he knows that he is better than everyone else there. But he also knows he’s not the most liked person among the Fatui, and often worried that you would soon agree with people who said that. After taking a deep breath of air, you would drag him to bed and hold him close to you. His arms around your waist as he snuggled closer to you and buried his face on your neck. You hold him for a few hours while whispering soft promises of love and endless praise, reassuring him that you are not going anywhere anytime soon. “Don’t worry, you’ll have to put up with me for a long, long while” you whispered as you kissed his forehead. “I wouldn’t have it any other way” he whispered back.
Contrary to popular belief and also to his personality, his kisses are soft and unsure. He doesn’t have a lot of experience in this area, so his kisses tend to be short yet soft. Mostly in private as well, since he would rather die than let his underlings see this side of him. He would wrap his arms around your waist, probably as he makes a teasing comment about how desperate you are or how much you probably missed him, and then kissed your lips. He is fascinated by the way your lips feel against his, he gets drunk by the feeling.
Overall, your relationship with Scaramouche is wild, to say the least. One moment you’re yelling at each other, ready to fight and the next one you’re holding him close as he whispered protection promises and kissed your neck. But despite all the problems you both encountered, you’re always there for each other. You rely on him and he relies on you, and that’s enough.
Xiao
“What’s this?” He asked you as you slowly pulled away from him. “A kiss” “Disgusting. Do it again” He said, pulling you back to him with one hand as the other rested on your waist. You smiled through the kiss, and he felt like all his pain and karma vanished. After a while, you pulled away. “Again” he said, chasing your lips before crashing them with his in another soft yet desperate kiss. You giggled and pulled away. “I need to breathe” you said, chuckling at sight of his lips pouting. “Why”
The first time you met, he saved you from treasure hoarders. But before you could thank him, he disappeared. You didn’t know who your savior was, so you tried your best to remember the mask that was on his face. You didn’t see him again, until you found yourself in Wantshu Inn after a long day of commissions far away from your home in Liyue Harbor. You needed rest, but the clear night and stars were calling for you, and before you noticed you were at the top floor of the inn. That’s where you saw him, and for reasons he doesn’t understand, he didn’t leave. He remained sat on the floor, looking at the sky as his legs were hanging from the edge. “Isn’t it pretty? I barely see stars as clear as these back home” you said to the stranger from a close yet appropriate distance. He didn’t reply, he didn’t look at you, but he knew who you were. He remembered you from the time he saved you. Next thing you noticed was the mask that was on the floor next to him. Your eyes widened and your mouth dropped. “You’re... the one who saved me” you said, shock flooding your face. He rolled his eyes in response, can’t he be left alone? “I never got to thank you so... thank you” you simply said, a soft expression replacing your shocked one.
You started dropping by Wangshu Inn a bit more often, whenever your time and commissions allowed you too. And every time you brought different kinds of foods to offer to Xiao, no one ever telling you that his favorite was Almond Tofu. He found it annoying at first, but soon enough got used to it. The day you brought Almond Tofu though, he almost smiled. Almost. His expressions as he ate the offering didn’t go unnoticed by you, and quickly learnt that it was his favorite.
After a while he started looking forward to your visits, but if someone ever asked him about it, he would just say it wasn’t because of you, it was for the almond tofu offering. You started spending more time with him, even though he barely opened his mouth and you did all the talking. He found you amusing, truly. Something about you, made him feel funny inside. And that scared him.
Your relationship started with a kiss. “Again” he would say. “Again” he would repeat whenever you broke away to breathe. This was new to him, and he knew it was wrong since he is who he is and could harm you at any second, but he was addicted. He was addicted to your kisses, to your touches. He got drunk by the feeling you gave him, not wanting to ever let go. “Let go, let go of them. You’ll only harm them” he kept repeating to himself in his mind, but his body moved by itself, pulling you closer to him. He was addicted, and he knew it was bad.
There weren’t many arguments in your relationship, maybe a few over you taking dangerous commissions, but other than that it was full of affection. Affection used to be a strange concept for Xiao, who once was determined that it’s better for everyone if he stayed away. But then you appeared, and no one ever made him feel the way you did. He started yearning for your touches and he looked forward to you coming back to him so he could kiss you. You were better than any medicine Zonghli could ever give him, you made his pain ease. And as you were wrapped in his arms watching the stars at the top floor of the Inn, he made a promise. A promise of protection and love, he would never let anyone or anything harm you, and even if you die of old age he would still love you for centuries to come, and he will find you again in your next life.
Overall, your relationship with Xiao started slowly, but soon grew more and more with each passing day. He trusts you almost as much as he trusts Rex Lapis, and he would always watch you closely whenever you go out on a commissions. How did you get so lucky?

Genshin Men x Baby! Reader: First day home and fatherly insecurities
Characters: Childe, Gorou, Teppi, Scaramouche, Albedo, Kaeya, Diluc, Zhongli, Thoma, Xiao, Kazuha
Warnings: Your "mother" gets a personality (I tried to keep it as neutral as possible because believe it or not, I do imagine who the partner is when I write) but they may slip and show some personality of the character I see them as, so if they do, just ignore it :D (or try to guess I guess), implying you're their natural born baby (but if you see their partner as male than...surrogate perhaps?), insecurity, Refrences to Albedo being Ace, Teppi having a prosthetic leg and amputated limb
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Childe
It was a quiet night, which Childe was grateful for as he came home from his last mission for the Tsarista before his paternity leave activated. He had already missed the birth of his baby, he wasn't about to miss their first night home.
He tried to stay quiet as possible as he slipped his boots off and removed his flashy accessories, hanging them on the wall by the door.
It was then he heard the crying.
Swallowing thickly, he approached the brightly painted nursery, dimmed by the lack of light.
He looked over your crib and froze, watching your arms flail.
How many times had he ripped fathers away from their babes like this? Mothers? He shouldn't be holding a baby, they're too pure, and he's too tainted. What if the blood on his hands transferred?
You kept crying, and not wanting to wake his partner anymore, he steeled himself and picked you up into his arms, awkwardly holding all 7 pounds of you. It was just like picking up a bow for the first time, nothing to it....!
You were so small...so fragile...
His confidence shattered again, nearly dropping you as his arms suddenly felt all your weight. Funny, you weren't any heavier than a sword.
'Come on...you can do this...' he coached himself.
You kept wailing and he sighed softly.
"Shh. Shh. рыба (little fish)." He did his best to soothe your starting to gently sway side to side. "You don't want to wake them up..." He said softly.
You looked him with watery, baby blue eyes.
He smiled softly, returning the gaze. He wondered if your eyes would forever sty blue like his own, or would they become a different color?
You seemed to calm down and snuggled in his chest and sucked on his shirt, making him jump.
"I don't produce that." He teased you softly, prying his shirt from your mouth. He stepped out quietly, still holding on to you with both arms before awkwardly holding you in one as he made a bottle for you.
He held the nipple to your mouth and sighed, watching you eat. It was them he heard another set of footsteps and looked up to see his partner.
"Sorry...did they wake you?" He asked.
His partner shrugged and walked closer, wrapping their arms around him from behind and peering over him to you.
"Doesn't matter. You're here now, which helps." They whispered.
He smiled softly and planted a tender kiss to their lips.
Maybe...maybe he could do this.
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Gorou
He smiled and yawned as he brought little baby home. He smiled and after a bit, brought you to your nursery. He ran his hand over your chubby cheek and smiled. He chuckled at the little furry ears on your head that were still bent over, they likely wouldn't raise for the first year of your life, and honestly, Gorou would probably miss this.
He backed away and went to join his partner in bed, catching himself in the mirror. He then looked at his rough, calloused hands. He suddenly felt his heart beat faster, going pale. He...didn't deserve this life.
Sure, he had been fighting for the right cause...but he took lives, father's from their children...
"mmm...Gorou?" His partner asked, waking up. They got up and wrapped their arms around him from behind.
He sighed and leaned into this. "I don't deserve this, lovie..."
"Of course you do." Their partner assured.
"Why?" He asked, ears flattening against his head.
"Because you're my cute, fluffy general." They grinned, ruffling his hair.
He laughed softly and then sighed hearing you cry. "I got it lovie."
He walked to your room and picked you up, smiling softly. "One day...one day...I'll tell you about the war, the world I saved you from, but for now, I think you need food." He smiled.
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Zhongli
One benefit to being an archon, is that Zhongli didn't need sleep. He was looking over some paperwork for the funeral parlor, trying to stay quiet so his spouse and Child could sleep.
(Name)…his new baby...
He never thought he'd make it to this point. To be honest, he thought he'd die in the archon war, and many, many more points in his life.
When he met his spouse, not as an Archon but as Zhongli, he was smitten and in two years, they were married, and another two years later, (name) had entered their lives, also known as, last night.
And that was when he heard it, the crying. He got up, wiping invisible dust off his hands as he walked into the calming nursery. He peered over the side to your crib and reached his hand down, letting your hand catch his finger. "It's okay little one." He said, picking you up carefully.
He looked at your small body and it finally seemed to dawn on him just what you were...who you were.
He calmed down. He was the geo archon, he could do this! There was time to be insecure later.
He went to the rocking chair that looked out the window towards the grand city he had spent many centuries building and looked down at you, gently rocking.
"Baba built all this. For everyone. One day, you'll understand just how special you are, how special I am...of course how special my diamond is..." He smiled down at you softly. "I may not always he the best father...but I'm willing to try."
He chuckled as you grabbed his ponytail.
"I promise (Name)."

Diluc
Diluc smiled as he arrived home to the winery, where his spouse and Child, now resided. He assumed they'd be asleep, as it was late and he had arrived at the 2 am closing time for the Angels Share.
He slipped his boots, jacket, and gloves off, leaving them neatly at the door.
He went to his bathroom and brushed his hair and teeth, letting his flaming red hair loose from it's ponytail. He then cleaned his hair brush and ran through his hair one last time to catch any other dead strands.
As he finished, he heard (name) cry. He walked to the nursery but stopped short. Why was he so nervous? He had done 10x more dangerous things, scary things even, but aside from proposing to his partner, this was the scariest yet.
Had his father felt this way with him? Did Kaeya feel this way with his child?
He took a deep breath and creaked open the door, walking to you quietly.
He awkwardly picked you up. He still wasn't quite sure how to hold you, or at least, if he was doing it right. You never seemed to stop crying nor squirming.
He swallowed. "(Name)…please stop, you'll wake your mother..." He said, starting to sway and bounce you, but it didn't seem to help.
Why wouldn't you stop?! Was he doing something wrong?! Archons he was a failure! He-
His internal rambling cutoff briefly as he saw his spouse enter the room, rubbing their eyes.
Great, now he had woken up the one person he wasn't trying to. He must look like a fool!
"I'm sorry Darling, I tried-"
"You're holding them to tight." His partner said, walking closer. "If you relax, they'll relax. Deep breaths."
He sighed and took a deep breath, listening his grip which calmed you down slightly.
"There..." His partner gave a tired smile and caressed your chubby face.
"I didn't mean to wake you..." He frowned.
They gave a small, sweet smile. "Don't worry, I know." They planted a kiss to his cheek. "We'll figure this out together."
Yeah...they would.
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Kaeya
He made sure his partner was asleep before slipping away. He wasn't particularly sleepy, shame he had insomnia tonight of all nights.
Looks like it would be useful tonight as his baby began to cry. He sighed, his heart shattering at the tiny wails of his child. He walked to the nursery and looked at you, picking you up into his arms. 
“Hey, (name), it’s okay.”  He whispered to you. “Don’t cry,” He hummed gently, swaying with them, and that was when his mind began running. 
What was he doing here? Why was he here? With a baby, a spouse? He didn’t deserve any of this. He was raised as a spy, a prince, set to destroy Mondstat, he should leave!
You cooed, which broke his downward spiral. He sighed and kissed your forehead, glad you had calmed down. 
His mind then circled back to his own father. Did his father ever feel this way about him? Did it break his heart to hear him cry? Was he sad when he left Kaeya? 
What if Kaeya ended up like that?
What if his destiny came to fruition?
What if (Name) hated him?
Did Diluc worry about these things with his kid?
“Kaeya, come back to bed.” A sleepy, yet comforting voice said from the doorway. 
“Hm? I didn’t mean to wake you, babe.” He apologized. 
“Eh, I was awake anyways.” They shrugged, walking inside and wrapping their arms around his waist. 
He sighed a bit. “What if I end up like him?” He asked, looking at his loving partner. 
“Well, I wouldn’t let you become like that in the first place. Besides, you wouldn't want (Name), to go through what you did, so why would you even put them in that situation?” His partner said, a small smile gracing their beautiful features. 
Kaeya nodded. “I guess that's true,” He agreed after a moment. 
He then set you back in your crib and brushed your little (h/c) tufts from your face. “Sleep well, little snowflake.”
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Albedo
He was amazed with himself in more ways than one. Not only had he managed to get a spouse (well, he supposed they should actually hold that honor seeing as he hadn’t exactly been trying at first.), and now, a baby. He had done it, he created life from nothing. 
Granted, it hadn’t been what he was expecting. He was imagining a flower, or maybe an animal, but a child? A child that was made from him and another no less, no, he hadn’t expected that. 
Well, (name) was actually created “in the lab”. Not in that way as Albedo wasn't interested in such things, but his partner had asked him sweetly if he at least wanted to adopt, and while Albedo wasn’t against the idea, there was something in him, nagging him about creating his own child. 
And...he had. (depending on what you imagine his spouse to be, you either developed in a real or artificial womb)
It was your first night in the world, thankfully in Mondstat and not Dragonspine. He was in his little lab in the house, mixing some chemicals together when he heard (name) cry. He set the beakers down and walked down the hall to where his new child resided. 
“(Name), what is it?” He kept his voice calm as he picked you up, still being awkward about holding you. While he felt confident around kids, with being around Klee all the time, but babies? It was something he was relatively clueless in, even with all the bools he read. 
He rocked you and looked at you. “Are you hungry?” He asked, but didn’t expect you to respond as he walked to the kitchen. He bounced you as he made a bottle for you, being as thorough in his measurements as he would with any of his experiments. He warmed it up before holding the nipple to your lips and watching you latch on and suckle. 
He relaxed. 
Babies weren’t so hard...
Right?
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Scaramouche
Scaramouche was...anxious, believe it or not. It was his first time back with his lover in nearly 3 years. He was finally back from the very thing he had fled from. A baby. 
Well, they weren’t a baby anymore, were they? 
He had left like a coward for those days. 
(Name) was two, an age many say is a toddler. 
“Hey, Scaramouche, its okay.” His lover cupped his face with their soft hands. “You’re back, that's what matters.”
“You're too forgiving...” He sighed, but leaned into the touch. 
“Maybe,” They shrugged. “But I knew what I was getting into.”
“What if they don’t like me? What if I hurt them?” He looked up. 
“I don’t know.” His partner said honestly. “But we’ll figure it out.”
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Thoma
Thoma hummed happily as he arrived back home to his spouse and new child, (Name). He didn't think he could love anyone as much as he loved his baby, even if they had just barely turned 2 days old.
He figured his spouse was likely asleep, which, good for them, they needed it.
He walked inside and opened the door to the nursery, smiling as he looked around the brightly colored room and approached the crib where (Name) was sleep, mouth open.
He chuckled at your sleeping face and carefully took your hand in three of his fingers. He smiled as your fingers naturally curled over his thumb. He couldn't get over just how tiny you were.
"Hey (Name), it's Daddy." He said softly, trying not to wake you up. "Remember me? I was that guy who was crying more than you were."
He figured he'd be more nervous than this, but he wasn't. He felt in his element in a way.
He squeezed your little hand. "I promise...I'll do my best for you, little bunny."
He turned as Tarumaru waddled in (Thoma mentally made a note to put the chubby dog on a diet here soon, he was getting a little more than just chubby).
"I know, you want to see them Taru, but you can't yet, doctors orders." He pulled away from you and pet the dog.
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Teppi
Teppi stirred as he woke up, hearing cries. For a moment, his brain struggled to process where the cries were coming from, before remembering his new child.
He sat up, grunting as he couldn't quite get his body moving. The war had really messed him up in more ways than one, especially his breif spiel of rapid aging (thankfully, Kokomi found an absolute miracle worker who managed to save a couple of soldiers and reverse their aging, including Teppi. But then, Teppi had gotten into an incident involving his leg being pinned under some rubble, which had totally brushed the bone in his leg, resulting in it being aputated from the mid thigh down.
He got up and swung his legs over the edge of the bed and grabbed his wheelchair as it wasn't really worth getting his prosthetic on.
He got in it and turned to make sure his partner hadn't awoken before wheeling himself to (Name)'s nursery.
He went to your crib and carefully picked you up, grateful his spouse had gotten a crib that opened up at the front so he could grab you easily.
He picked you up and held you close, gently rocking you. "Hey, it's okay. Shh."
You looked up at him with watery baby blue eyes.
He smiled softly at you. "See? I'm here for you."
He then sighed. "I know I'm probably not what you imagined, being so...broken...." He rested his forehead against yours, chuckling as your grabbed his hair. "But....I promise I'll do my best, just try not to wear me out too much, hm?"
He looked up hearing footsteps belonging to his spouse.
They smile at him and wrap his arms around him from behind. He leaned into it and aired his little family.
Not bad for a man supposed to be dead.
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Kazuha
Kazuha was in his study, writing his poetry and other musings. He had gotten so used to travelling with Beidou on the Alcore that he truthfully didn't know what to do with himself for the next year or so he took off to be with his spouse and (Name).
He hummed and leaned back, inhaling the scent of the incense he had been burning.
That was when he heard crying.
He got up and walked to your nursery, stepping inside and picking you up. He felt ready. He had read every book there was, talked to every parent he knew, so...why was he suddenly nervous?
"H-hey (Name)..." He said softly. "Stop crying...it's okay." He mentally cursed himself for the stutter. He took a deep breath and rocked you as he made you a bottle.
He sighed as you kept rejecting the bottle. "Not hungry?"
He then walked to his study and laid on the couch in the room with you on his chest, smiling as you finally relaxed.
"Oh, you just wanted to be held." He smiled, kissing your forehead. "That's okay (Name), I'll always be here to hold you." He ran his thumb over your little tiny back and smiled as you cuddled up and closed your eyes again.
He heard you start to cry and teleported himself to your room. He looked over your crib. "Stop..." He said, sighing as that didn't work.
*✧・゚:✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚: *✧・゚:
Xiao
He stretched as he was sat on the roof of the Inn. He didn't need sleep, so he often didn't. He normally would be out fighting Hillichurls or trying not to fall into his Karmic debt.
He really didn't want to pick you up...okay, maybe that wasn't right. He did WANT to, but he couldn't. He couldn't pick you up and possibly hurt you, or worse, pass his debt to you.
His partner walked in, seeing him just staring at you. "Xiao, just pick them up." They said softly.
"I can't..." He looked down.
His partner walked in and picked you up, then, turned to Xiao.
"Hold your arms out." They told him.
He swallowed but did so, awkwardly wrapping his arms around you as you were placed in his arms. His partner adjusted his grip and smiled.
"Relax. You won't hurt them." They said, kissing his cheek.
Xiao sighed but had to admit, it felt nice to hold you close.

the first week
masterlist | 1k prompt masterlist | baby series
pairings: diluc, kaeya, childe and zhongli x female!reader (separate)
warnings: babies
before i officially start the series: if you would like to be on a tag list for this series please let me know! i didn't make one for the pregnancy series because it slipped my mind but i noticed a lot of the same people returning lol. secondly, quite a few people have sent me family/baby requests but instead of making them totally separate parts, im just going to add them into this series! so if you get a tag from me, your request is in the prompt somewhere (ex: @dragontamereg​ for khanreiah eyes) ♡( ◡‿◡ ) enjoy
Tumblr media
diluc
If you thought one baby was difficult, try two.
And it didn’t help that you were still exhausted from the birth. Diluc felt like he was going into overdrive between tending to you and his new children. The first week felt like a never ending cycle of feeding, changing, bathing and sleeping.
Neither of you tried to be in a bad mood, but the sleepless nights and fatigue were catching up faster than you anticipated.
You had just laid down when Clara started to whine in the bassinet next to your bed. Her cries woke up Isaac and soon both babies were fussy. Your eyes pried open and you leaned over to rock the bassinet, shushing the newborn.
Diluc groaned next to you and sat up. He had dark bags under his eyes and his hair was frizzy and messy from not being able to shower in a few days.
“Can you calm Isaac down?” You asked tiredly, lifting Clara up and bringing her over to the bed.
“Why can’t you? I thought we said we would take turns,” He grumbled, though he was already getting out of bed and walking to the other side. You rolled your eyes and rocked Clara in your arms, brushing your finger against her soft tuft of hair.
“Because this isn’t something we can take turns at, Diluc,” You snapped back.
He sighed and climbed back into bed, Isaac now in his arms. The room was silent except for the occasional whines and noises from the babies. You had come to the conclusion that they just liked to wake you up for fun.
After a while, you turned your head to the side and melted at the scene. Isaac was laying on top of Diluc’s chest and they had both fallen asleep. Diluc’s mouth hung open and the baby snuggled into his warmth. You reached over to brush a lock of hair out of Diluc’s face, “My boys,” You said quietly.
At your touch, Diluc jolted awake. He was careful not to disturb Isaac, “Did I fall asleep?”
“You did,” You said, the ghost of a smile on your face. You put both babies back into their respective bassinets and Diluc lifted the blanket so you could slide next to him. “I don’t want to argue.”
“Me either,” Diluc agreed, wrapping his arms around you, “It’s just the first week. I’m sure it’ll get much easier.”
kaeya
To say Kaeya was attached to your daughter was an understatement. When you weren’t feeding her, Kaeya was tending to her. He held her close to him every chance he got, even offering to change and bathe her so you could sleep.
And he was so, so gentle with her. He didn’t know it was possible to love someone so much. You had gotten into the habit of just watching Kaeya. You didn’t know if you were ever going to have another child one day, so you treasured these moments like diamonds.
“Kaeya? The shower’s open,” You called out, twisting water out of your hair and wrapping a towel around yourself. When you didn’t get an answer, you raised an eyebrow. You changed into clean clothes and poked your head into the hallway to see the light to the nursery was on. “Kae?”
You poked your head into the nursery and stopped in the doorway, a smile creeping onto your tired face.
Calla laid on the changing table with Kaeya hovering above her. She barely kicked her feet, something she was just learning to do, and Kaeya struggled to get her legs into her onesie. “Come on, Princess,” He pleaded, tickling the bottom of her feet. Calla made a noise and Kaeya took the opportunity to dress her finally.
Once he lifted her up, he noticed you standing in the doorway. “Very cute,” You said softly, teasing Kaeya. Your husband smiled proudly.
“How was your shower?” He asked, looking for a pacifier to give to Calla.
“It was nice. You can take one now if you want,” You said. Kaeya looked down at Calla and hesitated. “I promise she’ll be here when you get out.”
You took Calla from Kaeya and brought her into your bedroom. After feeding her, you held her in your arms and she stared at you with wide eyes. Like Kaeya, she had his unique star pupil. Neither of you knew that was something that could be passed down but Kaeya was beyond shocked that it was. He wished she didn’t have it, saying something about how it didn’t represent her, but you liked it.
Calla yawned and you laid her beside you in the bassinet, rocking it before she fell asleep. Kaeya joined you in bed a little while later and rubbed his face against your shoulder, “I’ll grab her the next time she wakes up.”
“How did I get stuck with someone so wonderful?” You asked, throwing your head back. Kaeya shrugged and kissed your forehead before snuggling close to you. His eyes never left the bassinet.
childe
You didn’t know what to expect during the first week of Nikolai’s life but it definitely wasn’t a shower of gifts from your boyfriend. It seemed that everyday you woke up, there was something new on the bedside table.
“Childe, what are these for?” You finally asked after unboxing a designer dress that in no way would fit you now.
Your boyfriend poked his head into the bedroom, a coffee mug in one hand and Nikolai snuggled securely in his other arm. “Just some thank you presents,” He said casually, as if he wasn’t dropping thousands of mora with each gift.
“For what?”
Childe smiled softly and came into the bedroom, putting down his mug and climbing onto the next next to you. “For giving me this little guy,” He said quietly, “I’ll be eternally grateful.”
Your cheeks grew warm, “You helped too, you know.”
“I didn’t have to go through nine months of pregnancy and hours of labor, though.” Childe caressed Nikolai’s cheek and the baby’s eyes fluttered closed. “Do you think he knows we’re his parents yet?”
You stopped examining the dress to peer at your boyfriend, “Of course he does. You’re his father.”
“Yeah, but, you have a better bond with him. I’m just on the outside.”
You sighed and reached out to hold your hand over Childe’s, “He knows you just as well as he knows me, Ajax. You’ve been in his life as much as I have and you’ve been singing to him, talking to him and loving him. He adores you.”
Your words made Childe smile softly. Nikolai stirred in his sleep and Childe adjusted him in his arms. He was so small, so delicate, and Childe would never let anything or anyone harm him.
You snuggled back into the covers, exhausted from being a new mother, and Childe didn’t leave your side. “Thank you for the gifts,” You mumbled, your face half squished in a pillow.
“Oh, they aren’t done just yet.”
zhongli
Because of your traumatic experience in labor, Zhongli was being extra precautious with you. He didn’t like when you left the bed, even to use the restroom or grab the baby, and would much rather bring Jia to you when it came time to feed her.
The help was nice for the first few days since you were exhausted and sore but as time went on, you became ansty to just be a mother. It wasn’t like Zhongli was holding you back on purpose - he was just horrified that you weren’t yet healed from your traumatic experience and something could happen while you were up and about.
So when Zhongli ran to the store and left you home alone with Jia sleeping in the bassinet, you took this as your opportunity. Gently waking up the sleeping baby, you lifted your daughter into your arms. She snuggled into your warm embrace and slowly, and somehow calmly, woke up.
You bathed Jia yourself for the first time since she was born and afterwards, carried her to the nursery to change her into warm pajamas. For the first time all week, you were starting to feel like a mother.
“Why are you up?”
A voice broke you out of your trance and you looked up to see Zhongli standing in the doorway. He wasn’t mad, just worried, and his voice expressed that.
“You can’t hold me hostage in bed forever,” You said, picking Jia up and resting her securely in your arms.
“But what if it’s too early for you to do strenuous activity?” He questioned, frowning a bit.
You rolled your eyes, “Taking care of my daughter isn't a strenuous activity.” You stepped closer to Zhongli so you could reach a hand up and cup the side of his face, “Besides, I’m feeling much better.”
Zhongli leaned into your touch, “You’ll tell me if you need a break, right?”
“Of course I will.”
You made your way to the loveseat in the corner of the nursery and you sat down in it, enjoying the change of scenery from the bedroom for once. Zhongli’s eyes softened at the sight of you with the baby and he went to leave the room. Before he stepped out, he turned his head over his shoulder and said, “I’m proud of you.”

Midnight Snuggles
Characters: Diluc, Childe, Zhongli
Tumblr media
I really like this❤❤ I also did a blurb at the end of each one. I hope you like them <3
-
Diluc
Tumblr media
Look at that soft man
You just returned from doing your commissions for the adventures guild. Saying you were tired would be an understatement
You are on the verge on collapsing from exhaustion. You scurried your way to your shared bedroom with your boyfriend, Diluc
The redhead was sound asleep. Resting peacefully in the cozy fabrics of the blanket
You were feeling Snuggly and decided to wiggle your way into your boyfriend's arms
Now you can be incredibly careful in attempts to not wake him up but Diluc is a light sleeper, in a few moments he was awake and alert. If you succeed in not walking him up, in the morning Diluc is gonna surpise and apologize for not waiting for you to return first.
If you wake him however once he realizes it's his lover just trying to get comfy in his arms, Diluc's muscles relaxed and he m e l t e d in your arms
His face is pressed against the crown of your head. His arms are gently wrapped around your waist attempting to pull you closer
Even though he did end up waking, it wasn't long until the both of you fell into a deep slumber.
Diluc felt his muscles stiffen, an unknown figure shuffling beside him. The redhead peaked his eyes trying to catch a glance of said figure. However the moment his crimson eyes landed on his lover, Diluc's shoulder started to relax again. Almost by reflex, his arms reached out to wrap around the waist of his s/o. He felt his s/o snuggle against him, feeling their fingers comb through his messy red hair. Carefully Diluc tilted his head downward, pressing his lips against the crown of their head. A few minutes passed by and his lover was already asleep. Leaning against them the redhead shut his eyes, resting his head on top of his lovers. It wasn't long until Master Diluc fell back asleep.
Childe
Tumblr media
Its tend to be the other way around. Childe arrives home late and your already fast asleep within the covers of your shared bed
And he tries to wiggle his way into your arms to snuggle without waking you up
Oh how the tables have T U R N-
Taking care of your tasks took more time than preferred. It was drawing closer to midnight and you just returned to your shared apartment and after carrying out your nightly routine you headed over to your shared bedroom
Your loving boyfriend is already fast asleep and you sneaked over, trying to sneak undercovers
Childe can be a bit of deep sleeper. If you manage to not wake him up he's gonna make a slight tease of it in the morning.
However if you shuffle around enough, you'll catch his blue orbs starring at you drowsy and alerted for danger.
He makes a few comments about you being clingy while his actions act against him, his arms are pulling you closer to his chest
Once he has his arms around your waist, your not gonna be able to break out of his hold until morning
Childe jerked awake as something jabbed at his side. His eyes flickered open trying to adjust to the dark setting. His drowsy eyes landed on the familiar figure of his lover. Childe shifted a bit to where he's sitting up and facing his lover, who just got under the covers, their arms wrapping around the Fatui. " So clingy, you had to wake me." He whispered jokingly. His arms were already around his lover's waist, pulling them closer to snuggle with. Engulfing his s/o into a firm yet comforting hug, Childe rested his head beside his s/o cherishing the rare moments of peace together.
Zhongli
Tumblr media
Similar to Childe it tends to be the other way around. Your already asleep as he arrives home from working at the funeral parlor.
However he finished a bit early and you were taking a bit longer to finish commissions along with other tasks.
Usually he waits for his partner to return before going to bed however it was incredibly late and so Zhongli decided to go to bed a bit early
It's almost midnight and you have just step foot into your home. Carefully you prepared to get a good night's rest. Heading over to your shared bed, you carefully wiggled your way into your boyfriend's arms.
If you manage not wake Zhongli in the process. In the morning hes gonna be a bit surprised but ultimately snuggles for a bit longer before preparing some tea for you.
If you do wake rock man he's more worried than anything. Dispite just waking up hes gonna ask you if you need anything
Truly a gentleman
After assessing your necessities, you two snuggle together to go back to sleep. He has a gentle grasp around his s/o, his head is very gentle resting against there's.
It'd take him a bit to fall asleep again but until he does, he enjoys the presence of his partner snuggling up besides him.
Zhongli's eyes open to something moving beside him. Opening his eyes he caught his s/o trying to wiggle their way into bed and by looks of it without waking up the adepti. Of course, they failed to carry out that last task but they were eager to snuggle. " Do you need anything? Perhaps some tea to help you sleep, dear?" His partner shook their head in response. Their only concern was curling up and getting some rest with their boyfriend. Zhongli gave them a soft smile, his arms gently going around their waist preparing to fall asleep once again.

hi saw you wanted requests ^^ could you do hcs for Diluc with a s/o who just loves cuddling?
Of course! I love Diluc so much(//∇//)
Diluc with a affectionate s/o
Tumblr media
┈ ✁✃✁✃✁✃✁✃✁ ┈
Diluc isn’t huge on PDA. He thinks a relationship should be a special thing kept secret between 2 people. Once you came around though, he must learn to get use to it.
Showing up at the bar with Kaeya, Venti and Rosaria. You all decide to get drinks and unfortunately for Diluc he happened to working that night. After drinking a bit too much you start rambling and calling Diluc all sorts of pet names. Kaeya bursts out in laughter teasing Diluc about it.
At first it lowkey annoyed the redhead but your affections grew on him with time.
Buisness partners show up at the winery and you instinctively peek out to see what’s happening. Trailing your way over to Diluc the other party notices you asking if you were Diluc’s partner. Diluc was going to deny it but you cut him off agreeing with their assumption and offering them a handshake. Diluc was more than a little flustered.
When walking around town with your boyfriend you latch yourself onto his arm or hold his hand. Although Diluc doesn’t do the same a small part of him enjoys how carefree you are about being so open. Eventually he will began to instigate holding your hand.
Your favorite thing to do is play with his hair. Though he will give subtle hints about liking it he won’t voice it. He’s too stubborn.
You take his scarlet locks out of his usual ponytail watching them sprawl over his back. You run your fingers through them making sure to massage his scalp in the process. Diluc leans into your touch, closing his eyes in bliss.
Sometimes you put his hair in braids or little ponytails. Calling him adorable you pinch his cheeks as his face turns bright red as he tries to undo your girly hairstyles. You end up laughing at how flustered you made him.
The first time you spent the night at his house he literally offered you the guest bedroom. You thought it was so wholesome how much of gentleman he is.
You took him off on the offer to humor him. But in the middle of the night you got bored and crept into his room. Snuggling up by his side you fell asleep. When he awoke the next morning he almost jumped out of bed at the shock of seeing you in his arms.
He may deny it but he loves cuddling you at night. During the day is your time to be affectionate but at night it’s his turn. He will wrap his arms around your waist and rest his head on your shoulder while you do your skincare.
He will usser you to go to sleep sooner because he wants to fall asleep with you in his arms. He is like a human heater so in the summer you complain and throw all the covers off of you but he refuses to let you go.
As time passes the two of you get more comfortable with each other and your affection towards each other only grows and now everyone knows that your an item.

Aubadoir - Diluc Ragnvindr x Reader
Tumblr media
Requests: None (but are open)
Notes: I’m currently working on a Diluc au that might turn into a series, but here’s this for now!
Summary: What better time to be comforted by your husband than right before 5 a.m.?
Warnings: Fluff, overworked Diluc, sleep deprived reader
Diluc Discord Server
Diluc had gotten home late that night, no doubt saving Mondstadt from yet another threat. Normally, you would have fallen asleep by now, but tonight was different. You felt restless as you gazed out of the frost covered window. When your husband did manage to make it home, the clock had just turned to 4:00 a.m. He quickly scooped you up in his arms and brought you to the warm bed rather than sitting next to the drafty window. And yet, sleep still escaped you. So, Diluc decided to stay up with you until he was sure you were sleeping soundly, despite all of your protests. He must have been exhausted, but he put you first, just like always. 
“Hm, I love you so much.” He whispers sleepily, pressing his forehead against your own. 
“I love you too, Diluc… but please, go to bed…” You say softly, guilt weighing on your chest. Diluc had a tendency to overwork himself, and you knew rest was precious to him. It felt wrong being the one to take that away from him.
“No, not yet, dear. Something is bothering you and keeping you from sleeping, it’s my job to take care of you.” He explains, pulling back enough to look into your eyes. You could practically feel your heart melting as you stared into his ruby red eyes that only seemed to soften for you. And while he was right about something bothering you, you didn’t want to burden him. And so, you kept your mouth shut. 
“And it’s my job to take care of you, love. Go to sleep, please, nothing is bothering me.”
He takes a moment to study your expression before his gaze settles on your eyes again. A small smile dances on his lips as he speaks. “Liar, come now, follow me downstairs.”
Before you could question him he gets out of the bed, a t-shirt and plaid pajama pants hanging loosely off of him as he walks out of the bedroom door. 
“Wh- Diluc!” You shout, sitting up, bunching the blankets close to you as the cold air hits your skin. 
You hear a soft chuckle from down the hall as you sigh, crawling out of bed to follow him. Your eyes take a moment to adjust to the bright Christmas lights still hung up around Dawn Winery. But when they do, you see Diluc disappearing into the kitchen. “Hey! Come back here!”
You skip down the stairs, hands ghosting over the mahogany railing as you run after your husband. When you round the corner into the kitchen you see Diluc standing at the counter, back facing you as he fiddles with something. 
“Why are we in the kitchen right now?” You ask, rubbing your eyes. 
“I’m cheering you up.” He says simply before turning, revealing two mugs of eggnog and whipped cream in his hands. “We still had some left over from Christmas.” 
You stare at him for a moment before a bright smile appears on your lips. 
“Oh, darling…” You trail off before walking up to him, taking the cold mug in your hands. “Thank you.”
A soft smile appears on his lips as he leads you to the living room, settling down into the couch as you gaze outside of the window, the twilight sky beginning to melt into sunny hues. 
You bring the drink to your lips as you whisper. “You’ll have to get to work soon… huh?”
“Hm.. I don’t have to, I can take the day off.” He says softly, leaning his head on top of yours. 
You smile brightly, a wave of relief washing over you. Diluc was always busy with work, you rarely saw him. “Really?”
“Of course.” He whispers before gazing down at you, chuckling at your happy expression before hesitating. “Oh.. is that it, love?”
“Hm? What do you mean?” You question, snuggling into his side. 
“Is that why you're upset? I know I’ve been busy lately, darling, but I didn’t know it was affecting you this much.” He says, voice becoming quiet, guilt seeping into him. How had he not noticed before? 
“Oh… love, it’s ok…” You whisper. Damn, he could always tell exactly what was wrong with you. You should've known this time was no different. 
“So that is what's upsetting you? By the archons, dear, why didn’t you tell me? I would’ve made sure to take more time off.” He whispers, kissing the top of your head. 
“But you couldn’t have afforded that, Diluc, business is booming for you, it’s an important time.” You argue, frowning as you close your eyes. 
He hated to admit it, but you were right. Nevertheless, he still would have made more time for you, he had been meaning to anyway. “Either way, love, I’m taking more time off work, I have people to handle things for me, you do realize.”
“Oh, love, you don’t have to, really.” You say, already feeling guilty for pulling your husband away from work. 
“No, I insist. Y/N, I would do anything to make you happy, anything to see that beautiful smile of yours.” He says, smiling as you hold onto him tighter.
“Well… if you insist.” You whisper, chuckling softly.
“I do, now, look, love, the sun’s rising… It's beautiful this morning.” He says as you direct your gaze to the window, watching as the sky fills with pink and yellow hues. And there you two sat for the next hour or so, drinking in the otherworldly atmosphere just before 5 a.m., when the bleary melodrama of an extremely long night becomes awkwardly conflated with the industrious fluorescence of the very early morning.

Blissful Relief
Modern Day life is stressful (no one can tell me otherwise), and as someone who will practically deflate upon suddenly having nothing to do and nothing important going on in the future (because being isekai'd means all regular world plans for life are cancelled), I will not hesitate to sleep like the dead because I'm not on a tight schedule now.
(Two posts in a Day?? What have I become?!)
A.K.A, I make an excuse to write a Lazy Nocturnal God!Darling who will abuse the cult pampering system... because that is what I would do without hesitation when I’m free from Modern Day duties that eat away at my health and sanity bit by bit with every hour I spend working like a mindless zombie from dawn to dusk, juggling home life that is filled with bothersome troubles that never change.
I’m also a night owl, caused by both insomnia and because it is the quietest hour that I cannot help but want to relish in since my life is filled with so much loud noise it gives me daily migraines... but of course, habits are formed from repetition and I will always wake up at 4-6am like a dumbass thus suffer the consequences the next morning.
Uhh... and I guess there might be OOC stuff?? Characterization who? Also Self-Indulgent again?? Super Self-Indulgent??? Letmeenjoysleepingandbeinganocturnalcreatureplease--
Morning tends to consist of Zhongli coming into your room, leaving the tray of breakfast he prepared on the coffee table near the sofa in your room before he walks over to kneel beside the bed where you're happily dozing off on, a hand moving to gently rest on the small of your back to rub small circles with his thumb. He’s softly smiling the whole time, looking at you with such adoration and fondness with how relaxed you were. As much as he wants to let you sleep in, he knows what would happen if a mortal body doesn’t move that much on a daily basis.
He'll try get you to wake up without being too loud, and if you ask for affection (kisses in particular, because I’m an affection and touch starved bastard), he will give it to you without hesitation and pepper your face in adoring kisses before carrying you off to the sofa so you could eat. He will feed you himself if you’re still too sluggish.
Will also put you in his lap if you’re nodding off, mostly to prevent you from hurting yourself (and because he enjoys the close proximity, if you allow it).
On rare occasions, Childe will be the one to wake you up in the morning instead whenever Zhongli is busy, letting you snuggle in bed a while longer if you want a few extra minutes before smothering you in his affections as he whisks you off from bed to get ready for the day and drop you off in the kitchen where breakfast is waiting on the table.
He will feed you himself if you're still drowsy, looking at you while cooing as though you are the most precious little thing this world has ever given life to (and to be fair, you are the most precious person to him with his family).
Will give you more cheek kisses if you’re still half-asleep, or in-between spoonfuls as a way to let you know you’re doing great... and because why not. It’s a rare moment to have, since Zhongli does hog a lot of your time.
Noon/Afternoon usually has Venti to keep watch over you if you ever choose to nap somewhere random around the teapot outdoors, or somewhere out in the wilds of Teyvat where the weather is just right and the surroundings are generally quiet. If you were outside of the teapot, you’d also have either Kaeya, Xiao or Kazuha to accompany the two of you depending on where you are for extra protection (per Zhongli’s safety precaution).
Venti will hum a song, and maybe strum a calming tune while you nap, happily basking in the gentle breeze and warm sunlight as the day goes by in a very peaceful and quiet manner. If lunch time comes around, he’ll try to wake you up as gently as possible, but finds it difficult to disturb you when you look so comfortable and peaceful right now. (And usually, this has you missing out on lunch if Zhongli is too busy to check up on you. Don't worry though, he'll make sure the packed lunch is empty before the old man drops by and that you did eat something.)
Kaeya will take the chance to cuddle with you, usually keeping you between his legs while you're using his chest as a pillow as your head is tucked in the crook of his neck. He's going to keep a loose hold on you, arms wrapped around your waist while occasionally shifting in case you're uncomfortable. He's smiling the whole time because you're so cute when you sleep like this. (Will occasionally give you kisses on the crown of your head if you don't mind it. Man wants to spoil you with so much love if you allow him to.)
Xiao is 100% attentive to all things in the surrounding, wanting to keep you safe from all potential dangers and will not relax while you're in such a vulnerable state. He will, however, melt when you sleepily call for his name while lazily reaching for him in such a lazy, but cute manner. Just like that, he's right by your side, asking for whatever you need. He's still on guard, but whatever you need, he will be there to provide... kisses and snuggles included, even if he’s struggling to be open about it. 
Kazuha would be smiling serenely, occasionally brushing the hair off your face if it gets in the way of giving you proper sleep. He would take care of problems that may arise before it reaches you, and if you ever have trouble trying to be comfortable, he’ll let you lay your head on his lap while he gently pets your head in such a soothing manner that the nap turns into full on sleep... his legs might go numb, but he just couldn’t wake you up when you looked so peaceful sleeping right there.
Sayu will always accompany you when you’re in Inazuma, mostly because she could find an excuse to sleep with you around when you are getting ready to nap. She’ll be quick to defend you though, because if you get hurt, she’ll lose that excuse and she’ll struggle to find peace to sleep for a while without having people tailing after her.
Dusk/Evening you’re decently awake (or rather, barely awake), Zhongli’s not letting you sleep anymore until later into the night. Ei would keep you company, the time when it’s not so busy for her as things settle down and allow her to spend time with you. She’s honestly just internally squealing when you end up holding onto her hand or sleeve if you’re too groggy to walk by yourself and properly guide your own feet.
Sometimes the Kamisato Clan would be the ones to accompany you, per Ei/Raiden Shogun’s orders. Ayaka used to be on-guard (because how did someone who was barely standing on their own two feet turn the Raiden Shogun into some excitable puppy??) when she first met you, but she got over it after realizing you’re not a bad person after spending enough time with you to see it.
Thoma sometimes coddles you, knowing well enough that you were just tired from the stress of the daily life you used to have when you told him once during a day when he was left to take care of you... He does his best to make sure you were enjoying yourself in the city, keeping a watchful eye in case you’d trip on your own feet.
On rare occasions when even the Kamisato Clan is busy, Kujou Sara would be the one to care for you... as foreign as it was in the beginning, because you’re so idle and pretty sluggish most of the time, but she grew to find these times relaxing. Of course, she is ever watchful for all problems, and when you were awake enough, would be helpful with your foreknowledge if you do remember everything well enough.
When Night falls upon Teyvat, you are fully awake, if only for a while until you grow exhausted again. In these moments, they would all try to spend time with you and gain more of your attention... but aside from that, you would often take strolls on Watatsumi Island, if only because you do sincerely enjoy the scenery the island had during the night... but other times, you would either take a stroll at Starsnatch Cliff or Qingce Village.
Kokomi would be with you, walking alongside you while she admires the sight of your relaxed, fully awake expressions that mostly appears at night. She would keep each of these moments to her heart, knowing that if her God loved Watatsumi as it is, then all her efforts into protecting it was worth it... plus, there was something nice just knowing a God like you enjoying the natural sight of her home while taking a nightly stroll.
Gorou trails behind you like a puppy, basking in the attention you give him and will always be ready to defend you. When you talk, he is absolutely silent, wanting to hear your voice in its more clearer form. He will not be happy if someone interrupts you, definitely will snarl at them if you don’t keep him in check... but aside from that, he will stick close to your side while you’re at Watatsumi Island as your guard with Kokomi.
Diluc will be by your side during the night when you’re in Mondstadt, always looking away when your gaze is directed towards him but otherwise would observe you closely... since he often sees you when you weren’t fully awake. He enjoys seeing this side of you more, and while he does find your sleepy self to be adorable, he likes knowing that you’re aware of everything... It gives him a peace of mind when you do acknowledge his efforts.
Midnight rings clear into the night, the clarity of your mind would return into its sleepy state. You would return back to the Teapot and get ready for bed, tucked in comfortably by one of your acolytes before you slumber until morning rises once more and repeat your day... Sometimes, if you’ve relaxed enough, you might be fully awake for the whole day.
Of course, that is a rare moment that might not always happen, but if you were truly awake for a whole day, none of your acolytes are going to miss this chance and might fight to have your full attention if you don’t give them the satisfactory amount, unless you put your foot down and make sure they behave. 
Aside from that, your cult will always be there for you, ready to take care of you and give you all the affection you want.
