I got five achievement namecards tonight! The Liyue one, the Chasm one, the first two Inazuma ones (I already had the third), and the second co-op one.
I got to thoroughly test Yanfei and Hu Tao in the process, and I'm pleased with both, though Hu Tao's health thing still stresses me out so much. I'm going to have to run her with a healer for my own sanity--fortunately, I already have Qiqi built, and Yaoyao will also fit the Liyue Children team once I build her. She's a beast, though. I know myself too well to expect to master the "cancels" thing that the guide I found for her recommends, but she still took out a bunch of named Black Serpent Knights in the Chasm in three charged attacks each, so I'm fine with it. Yanfei, meanwhile, is super satisfying to play--she's just got a good feel to her, and she packs a pretty good punch herself! It'll be fun to try out all the new combos they make available for their team. :>

ah xiao.. i really do regret not getting more photos in him. i felt really nauseous on saturday, which i later identified as elevator-induced vertigo, and really struggled through most of the interactions with everyone else. i also completely forgot to ask people to tag me on instagram, so a lot of those images are essentially lost forever (sobs)
Tumblr media
im still really proud of my xiao cosplay though! the spear is completely handmade by me !! the mask is as well, but it’s not very vsiible in these photos. i will make a full post about the prop making process and their details later.

Friend: @bubblegum-snowdrop Gets her second Primordial Jade Winged Spear off the standard banner.
Me: Gets c1 Lisa and c2 Fischl. And has never once gotten the Jade Winged Spear despite wanting it since getting Xiao. I’m not lying when I say I started laughing hysterically when she told me. The feeling of dejection was so real I just logged out of Genshin because of how mean the Standard banner is to me. All I have ever gotten in terms of five stars is Qiqi, The Skyward Spine and two Skyward Atlases. That’s it. x_x I just....Standard Banner.... Could you PLEASE give me that or a Skyward Harp? Please?
The Event banner is and has always been kind to me- again thank you Gatcha gods- but the Standard Banner?? With Five Stars?? Nope. I may as well be a spec of poop underneath their shoe. I’m happy for her of course and sure as hell not angry, but wow the Standard Banner really hates me when it comes to Five Star’s doesn’t it...

omg i remember the very first time i wished on the weap banner,, my friends always complained about how much of a scam it was, and i was itching to pull on any banner (bc i havent pulled as i was waiting for xiao then), so to sate my addiction, i did my very first pull on the weap banner, a single first pull which suprise surprise was the thundering pulse, ended up getting other 5 star bows and catalysts after which i cried over bc i wanted polearms and claymores 🥹 for some weird reason, ive always chosen the lesser liked weapon in banners bc its what i wanted (aesthetically), and i end up unfortunately fortunate in getting the much vied for weapons, my friends ended up saying ive been kakegurui-ing my way into the banners 🦋
my thundering pulse is now put to good use w my newly pulled and well loved yoimiya!!
sndjkvcnsdfjv i know the weapons banner is supposed to be a scam but i have no interest in any of the boosted drop rate four stars on the yoimiya banner and i'm not gonna go chasing her constellations, so i like the surprise (as a really new player) of OOOH... I HAVE RECEIVED... ROSARIA..... (i also like pulling on the standard which i know most people don't like but i am desperately searching for diluc. last three five stars i've gotten there have been weapons though dfgnkjbkjnfg. I JUST GOT ANOTHER FIVE STAR POLEARM. I LITERALLY DO NOT USE POLEARM CHARACTERS....)
you are full of luck, it seems!!! i am trying desperately to get some to rub off on me. i also was pulling thundering pulse for yoimiya! currently hunting mirror maidens across the map.

In which Xiao gets the childhood he deserves. A Grandpa Zhongli and Xiao adventure.
Tumblr media
Out of all the seasons, Xiao loves summer the best. Not only does he get to stay up an hour later than usual, he gets to do things he normally couldn’t the rest of the year. For example, during summer, Xiao gets to sleep in as late as 10 in morning. He can go to the beach and eat ice cream and build sandcastles without worrying about homework. He can watch TV and play outside for as long as he likes, as long as he gets inside the house by twilight. Most importantly, he gets to stay in Grandpa's house for a whole month.
Xiao's Grandpa is Zhongli. Zhongli is the Geo Archon. That means Xiao's Grandpa is the coolest, most awesome being to ever walk the planet. And Xiao gets to spend thirty (30) days with him. Just him and his Grandpa.
No one else in all of Liyue gets to experience that.
Tumblr media
Xiao has spent a total of two days in his Grandpa’s house when he receives his first mission as a Guardian Yaksha.
The mission? Make a new friend. Location: The children’s park.
Xiao’s not gonna lie. He did not expect such a daunting task for his first ever mission. However, if there is one thing that Xiao has learned in his eight years of life, it’s that adepti assignments are to be accepted and seen to completion, whether they are given in Rex Lapis’ office or at the breakfast table over a plate of brown rice and grilled fish.
Which is how Xiao finds himself in the park two hours later, clutching his Grandpa’s slacks like his life depended on it.
Don’t misunderstand, though. Xiao is a brave boy. But sometimes, even brave boys get scared too. He’d much rather stay beside his Grandpa, where he can cling to his leg and be safe from the curious glances of the strange mortals in the sandbox.
“Don’t forget your weapon.”
Ah, yes, his weapon. Xiao wanted to bring one of his Grandpa’s many polearms, but Zhongli told him that the Primordial Jade Winged Spear is simply too long, too heavy, and too sharp for eight-year old boys to carry, even if they were adepti. So, he gave Xiao a jumbo bubble wand instead.
“Go on,” Zhongli tells him once Xiao finally let go of his leg. "Remember the plan."
Right, the plan. Xiao racks his brain for the battle strategy he made with Rex Lapis himself on their way here. Look for your target, wait for an opening, and when you’re ready, engage.
And so, Xiao does exactly that. Tightening his hold on the bubble wand, he takes a step forward and scans his surroundings. There, by the swings, stood two blonde kids around his age, blowing bubbles with their own soapy weapons. Target sighted.
Now for the rest of the plan.
Xiao turns to Zhongli. "Don't leave, okay?"
His Grandpa smiles and pats his head. "I'll be at the bench if you need me."
Xiao nods and walks ahead. Well, here goes nothing.
.
.
.
Ninety minutes later, Xiao goes home with two brand new friends, a play date plan for next week, and a gold coin for a job well done on his first ever mission as one of Liyue's Guardian Yaksha.
Tumblr media
As Geo Archon and oldest of The Seven, it is only expected that Xiao’s Grandpa would keep a lot of treasures in his house. And, well, Xiao’s not claiming to be a treasure expert, but you know what they say.
Where there’s treasure, there’s a guardian.
That’s where Azhdy comes in.
Of all the odd things in the Geo Archon’s house, the most peculiar one is Zhongli’s pet, Azhdaha.
Xiao is not sure exactly what kind of animal Azhdaha is. His Grandpa says Azhdy is a dragon, but he looks more like a dog to Xiao. Either way, Xiao thinks Azhdy is the coolest, most awesome pet ever. (Even if his name is a little hard to spell).
Some people think Azhdy is scary, but really, he’s just a clumsy creature who’s a little too spiky and excitable. It’s true! Azhdy has funny eyes that look in opposite directions. He can’t see very well, and that’s why he always bumps into walls or people. But that’s okay, because it doesn't matter where Xiao is in the house—when Xiao says, "Azhdy, come here", the sound of heavy paws on hardwood floor will reverberate in the whole house, becoming louder and louder the closer he gets.
The sight of Azhdy running towards him never fails to make Xiao smile. Which is why he doesn’t understand why most people look just about ready to call the Millelith whenever Azhdy pounces on his little body to give him wet dog kisses.
Tumblr media
There are days that hold a special place in Xiao's heart. For him, that day is Thursday. It's not because of any particular event or tradition. No, it's because Thursdays mean one thing: spending the most time with his super-duper amazing Grandpa.
For some reason, Thursdays seem to be the day when Zhongli spends the most time at home, away from his duties as the Geo Archon. And for Xiao, that means having his Grandpa all to himself for the day.
As the evening draws near on Thursdays, Xiao eagerly awaits the highlight of his day: bedtime. Not because it means the end of the day, but because it's the time when Zhongli sits by his bedside, tucking him in with gentle hands, a warm smile, and a pat on the head. Sometimes, Azhdy joins them too.
In those quiet moments, the world outside fades away, and it's just Xiao and Zhongli, and sometimes, Azhdy. While Zhongli spins tales of dragons, warriors, and dumplings, Xiao finds out very quickly that the crinkling of old book pages and Zhongli’s smooth baritone are much more effective sleep aides than the bedtime story itself.
Xiao never knows when he dozes off, if his Grandpa ever finishes his story before he starts dreaming. But every time, he wakes up with Zhongli and Azhdaha gone, replaced by the comforting scent of tea and breakfast in the air. It feels like a warm embrace, like he's loved and safe with Zhongli and Azhdy nearby.
Those Thursday nights (and Friday mornings) are the best.
Tumblr media
The big building on Wangshu Street, Xiao learns, is called Wangshu Inn. Inn spelled with two (2) Ns. It means hotel, Grandpa Zhongli tells him one day.
Sometimes, when Xiao has been exceptionally good and Grandpa Zhongli feels particularly nice, they go to Wangshu Inn for a bowl of almond tofu. Xiao loves almond tofu, especially the almond tofu from Wangshu Inn.
How Xiao came to like the sweet treat is actually a funny story.
When Xiao was five, he got lost. It was Lantern Rite and he and his Grandpa were out and about on one of their holiday afternoon walks. Captivated by the vibrant sights and sounds around him, Xiao had wandered off and couldn't find his way back to where his Grandpa was.
Of course, being an adeptus, Xiao hadn't been scared. (He was terrified.) Like a brave and dependable Guardian Yaksha, he took it upon himself to look for the correct way home. (Xiao wandered aimlessly, tears welling up in his eyes.) And just as the day began to turn into night, a calming presence had enveloped him. It was Zhongli, his Grandpa!
He had found him amidst the crowd.
Xiao remembers his Grandpa picking him up from under his arms and rubbing his back to soothe him. Then, he brought them both to Wangshu Inn where they shared a bowl of almond tofu.
"You're okay now," his Grandpa had said. Xiao doesn't remember being not okay, so his Grandpa must have been talking to himself. He must've been super scared when he turned and found Xiao missing! He guesses even cool, strong, Geo Archons like his Grandpa get scared too sometimes. (So, maybe it's okay to say that he felt a little bit scared too when he couldn't see Zhongli anymore back in the harbour.)
Xiao doesn’t remember much of that day, but he does feel a surge of warmth and comfort with every spoonful of the soft sweet treat.
Tumblr media
In the neighborhood where his Grandpa lives, there's a girl named Hu Tao. She's a bundle of energy, always running around with a mischievous twinkle in her eye. Hu Tao is Xiao's... not-friend friend, but whenever they meet, she's full of jokes and stories she's read from whatever book she was devouring that week.
She's smart, just like Grandpa Zhongli. She reads those big heavy books he sometimes sees his Grandpa read on quiet afternoons at the den. She says big, hard to say words, like quick sonic (quixotic) and disk consulate (disconsolate). Sometimes, she recites poems with rhymes and more words Xiao doesn't quite understand. It's okay, though, because when she does, she smiles, and when she smiles, Xiao smiles too.
Hu Tao has a pet bunny named Boo Tao. Boo Tao is a fluffy little creature, but too small to play with Azhdaha, so they settle for sitting together in the grass, sniffing flowers and watching the world go by.
Xiao thinks Hu Tao is pretty. He's not quite sure what "pretty" here means, but whenever she laughs, it feels like sunshine breaking through the clouds.
Tumblr media
Sometimes, when the sky is gloomy, Grandpa Zhongli takes Xiao to the cemetery.
Xiao’s only seen pictures of Granny Guizhong but with all the stories that Grandpa has told Xiao about her, it’s as if he’s met her too.
He makes sure to water the Qinxin flowers Grandpa keeps on Granny's grave. He'll take care of the flowers so Granny does not get sad.
Next time, he'll add Glaze Lilies too.
Tumblr media
Amidst the hustle and bustle, Xiao's hand finds Zhongli's, his small fingers entwining with his grandpa's sturdy grip. His Grandpa smiles down at him, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Shall we see what the harbor has in store for us today, Xiao?"
Xiao nods. He'd be a dummy to say no to Rex Lapis. With a gentle lift, his Grandpa scoops Xiao up into his arms, granting him a bird's-eye view of the lively street below. From this vantage point, Xiao marvels at the vibrant tapestry unfolding before him—the dancers twirling in graceful arcs, the acrobats defying gravity with breathtaking stunts, and the musicians serenading passersby with their melodious tunes.
He thinks he can see Hu Tao and the twins there too.
Tumblr media
As the end of summer draws near, the yard of Grandpa's house becomes a haven for crystalflies. Amidst the delicate dance of these enchanted creatures, Xiao clings tightly to Zhongli, his small form nestled in the safety of his Grandpa's embrace.
With each passing moment, the inevitability of parting weighs heavy on Xiao's heart. As his parents arrive to take him home, Xiao buries his face in the crook of Zhongli’s neck, unwilling to let go of the warmth and comfort he finds there. The air is filled with the soft whispers of crystalflies bidding farewell to the departing summer, echoing the bittersweet emotions swirling within Xiao's heart.
Tumblr media
Summer has passed, and before Xiao knows it, it's summer again. Out of all the seasons, Xiao loves summer the best. Not only does he get to stay up an hour later than usual, he gets to do things he normally couldn’t the rest of the year. For example, during summer, Xiao can go out on walks with Azhdy while the citizens of Liyue look on with amazement at his very big, very cute pet. He can sit by the park and see if a girl with long pigtails and pretty eyes happens to pass by. Most importantly, he gets to stay in Grandpa's house for a whole month.
Xiao's Grandpa is Zhongli. Zhongli is the Geo Archon. And Xiao's most favorite thing in the whole entire world is him.

HIIIII I was wondering if you could do a Xiao x reader!! If it’s ok I want it to be about xiao having a stressful day and wanting to go see reader soon (they’re already in a relationship) and when he finally comes home they crash and squish reader and they cuddle the rest of the night! If you already have an idea in mind that you prefer pls do what you want!<3 ALSO LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOUR WRITING SM<3 TYYY
again, another ask that was in my ask box for very long - I'm sorry! and thank you for the kind words <3 I hope you like it!
Xiao:
Tumblr media
even though today seemed to have been just the same like hundred other days - filled with slaying demonic spirits, having his shirt tainted by impure blood, his senses overloaded with adrenaline and the smell of metal - by the sunset, xiao seemed to be completely exhausted.
when the primordial jade-winged spear pierces through the last demon in the area, xiao pants heavily, watching it disintegrate; he leans his weight against the polearm, feeling his knees go weak - in silence, his thoughts finally return to you.
after having rested for a while, the yaksha quickly fades into greenish dust; he appears on the roof of your tiny house, skilfully jumping off and taking a peek through your window - the last thing he'd want is to wake you up if you were to sleep soundly.
watching you preparing dinner in the kitchen, he comes in quietly, yet in a hurry - by the time you process everything, you hear the clank of Xiao's polearm hitting the floor and his arms wrapped around you.
given xiao's usual attitude towards affection, it did not go unnoticed by you - but the yaksha only muttered that he missed you and that you don't need to worry any further.
the tiredness was something he did not hide this time - but his grip proved he was far from passing out.
he nuzzles his face into your neck gently, giving you tiny butterfly kisses; he further melts into your arms as he feels you embrace him in return. when you card your fingers through his dark hair, he shifts his forehead against your shoulder, his thumb stroking your clothed skin; he sighs in relief for the very first time that day.
he didn't expect to be pampered - yet, when you gave him a plate of grilled tiger fish and prepared a warm bath, he was almost holding back tears; who knew such mundane things could make a person full of sin this happy?
when you finally join him in bed, xiao seemed to fully relax; he laid with his eyes closed, content with having you next to him. he allowed himself to be held this time, feeling your warmth and fingers toying with his hair softly.
his golden eyes opened but for a short while, staring deeply into yours - with a slight smile, xiao leaned on his elbow, cupped your cheek with his idle hand, and connected your lips in a long, sweet kiss.
"thank you, my love," were the only words he said, and the only words you needed to hear before he returned to cuddle you, listening to the soft beating of your heart.
