Not to IMMEDIATELY speak up about Ganyu though, I haven't been able to stop thinking about how Sky Singer ABSOLUTELY went down to Liyue Harbor with Ganyu for her birthday and FORCED HIMSELF to have a good time but there WAS a moment where he was like

Sky Singer: Ganyu...

Ganyu: Mh?

Sky Singer: Why does it smell so much like meat here? ;_;

#KJSHDGKSJDHG dammit ganyu no cee double-you for your fellow qilin? #she absolutely didn't take the vegetarian shock into account #i think she fixed it when she went to wanmin for her birthday dinner and introduced him to all that delicious non-meaty food #though he was eyeballing other tables dubiously the whole time #before getting all sparkly eyed and crying over how good the food was #which made GANYU really happy #i'll stop i'm getting too sappy with this #qp: ganyu

[ningquan]

oh, ms ningguang, i adore you. i'm relistening to certain voicelines and !! the way she supports the women / feminine aligned folks of liyue ( even if it goes mostly unnoticed ) brings me no shortage of joy🥺

#TBT. #and not just beidou or yelan or even keqing and ganyu #she supports yun jin's opera; wanmin restaurant for xiangling #amending the law for xinyan's performances; keeping yanfei's interest in law going #and even just being a welcoming presence into society for shenhe #even if some of them don't have a favorable opinion of her #it doesn't change ningguang's devotion to support them #and it makes me so soft thinking about it

I love the diversity in the harbingers. There's the chivalric type (Il Capitano), the mad doctor (Il Dottore), the banker man (Pantalone), the scary short girl (Columbina) and the weird skrunkly normal guy who's actually very traumatised (Childe)

The best part is their manner of speech. Childe is the type to say oddly casual stuff, even dropping as low as to get dirty while flirting. Meanwhile others like Pantalone and Capitano are the more poetic type (in my opinion at least) and would use well thought out compliments

#childe: you're good at math? well how about we add you and me to a bed and minus the clothes haha #darling: sir this a wanmin's #the others probably bullied him when he first became a harbinger #zuri rambles

Prior to falling into the Abyss, Ajax had always been a rather fussy eater, at times only ever willingly eating select fruits, fish ( either simply in fillets or sometimes in crepes ) or deruny his mother would make because he just couldn’t stand everything else. To her worries, this even continued well into his older years too, even if he did slowly start coming to terms with other foods when she’d worked to adjust them so he could eat them a lot more comfortably.

After he’s fallen into the Abyss, he seemingly did a complete 180, to his parents’ surprise. From then on would not only eat all the foods he used to hate and even new ones he’d never had before, but he WILL finish everything on his plate, and without complaint. While his father took this with full relief, his mother still couldn’t help but worry about what that meant for her poor boy.

#hc; tartaglia #//Not counting desserts as Food-Food—a lot of though he could stand; easy #//But others he REALLY needed to warm up to #food ment tw #//His pickiness did not change; mind you #//His mother was right to worry Something was up #//There are still many foods he cannot STAND bc the textures or tastes are just Hell #//But bc of his time in the Abyss; he will habitually choke it all down regardless; & make it V hard to tell how unpleasant it rlly Was #//Bc down there; he did NOT have the luxury of being too choosy. Skirk made him WELL aware of that. Carried right into his present day #//signs are all subtle; a fist might be pressed against his thigh or the tabletop if it really bothers him though; he can’t hide that #//Or have the slightest grimace as he chews/swallows; but that only someone LOOKING for it or who knows him V well can pick out #//Sometimes he might even feel sick/queasy after bc it was just so unpleasant to him #//But he’ll try his hardest to not actively hurl—can’t WASTE food after all #//What would his master think? #//Certain other foods like soups and meat dishes he could bear after his mother made the adjustments for him #//He is forever grateful she genuinely took the time to work around his sensory needs/tastes #//Loves her very much; misses her food so so much too #//Chef Mao is near the only other person whose foods he’d eat without complaints—esp since the man also made an effort to accommodate him #//Bc he happened to notice Taru’s subtle reactions to his food and pried the truth out of him with genuine interest and care #//He deffo became a VERY hearty tipper at the Wanmin Restaurant while all was well; was a bit sad things Soured bc of his stunt with Osial #//He can cook for himself decently well; but not Truly to his own liking—not entirely. It frustrates him greatly #//If Traveler were to become one of those people who can cook to suit him bc they cared enough to learn?

What the Hell is Ushi? (Long Post)

This is inspired by the new event and raised some questions with me concerning gameplay mechanics and official lore.

There are also minor spoilers for 2.7 below. Read at your own risk.

In Wanmin Restaurant . . .

Childe: So, hypothetically speaking, my narwhal is something that I can potentially communicate with?

Itto: (through a mouthful of noodles) That's like sayin' Beidou's serpents are alive because they can move. Does that make 'em alive? No!

Childe: (grumbles) Well, that doesn't make any sense. (turns to Diluc) If your summoned creature isn't alive, how does your burst work then?

Diluc: Huh. (contemplatively) I simply see my burst as an extension of my will, so I point it in the direction I want it to go and the things I want it to do and it does so. (pinches the bridge of his nose) . . . why are we talking about this again?

Itto: Zhongli and Ushi went out for some tea or something and Childe thinks that his whale can do the same, which it can't!

Childe: (inhales) Comrade, look. We both summon our respective familiars! That, in itself, is a critical similarity that you can't deny!

Itto: No, no, no! What you're talking about isn't how it works at all! I met Ushi first and then he stayed with me. Your 'whale-thing' or whatever's completely different!

Childe: (points a chopstick in Itto's direction) Then explain the whale song, comrade! If it wasn't alive, then how could it sing?

Diluc: (finishing a dumpling) (evenly) Well, just because the . . . beings summoned with a Vision show some signs of being alive doesn't mean that they are alive, let alone able to communicate with the user.

Beidou: (shrugs as she eats from a bowl of rice) Well, one of mine did try to bite me once, but then I simply willed them out of existence.

Itto: Well, there you have it! (puts his arms behind the back of his head) Besides, I think the Arataki Gang's auxiliary member is a whole lot better than a giant whale anyway.

Diluc: (sighs as he waves Xiangling over) Is it possible to get a pot of tea for us? We might be here for a while.

Beidou: (finishes her rice) Yeah, and can you also grab some more of that new stew you've got? It's awesome.

Xiangling: (cheerfully) Of course! It'll all be ready in about fifteen minutes! (rushes back into the kitchen)

Childe: (actually worked up) . . . no, no that can't make any sense!

Itto: (huffs as he finishes the last of his dumplings) Well of course it does! Ushi's a living thing and your whale isn't, end of story!

Childe: Aha! (suddenly stands up with a dangerous glint in his eye) Ushi obviously isn't alive!

Itto: (dumbfounded) What?!?

Childe: (almost fanatically) If Ushi was alive, then he wouldn't bamf away, and only summoned creatures can do that! (excitedly slams his hand on the table) Therefore, anyone who can summon a creature should be able to talk to them and others can too!

Itto: (pauses for a second) (shoots up out of his seat and points at him) Now hold on! Ushi isn't a summoned creature at all!

Childe: Well if he isn't, then what is he?

Itto: (crosses his arms and says confidently) An exorcist, obviously!

The entire restaurant goes dead silent.

Diluc: (facepalms)

Beidou: (desperately trying not to choke on laughter)

Childe: (deflates and slides back into his seat in disbelief)

Itto: (looks around the table) (loudly) What? You got a problem with that or something? Huh? Well, speak up if you do! (plops back down into his seat) Hmph!

The restaurant becomes more dead than silent.

Xiangling: (carefully puts the orders on the table)

Diluc: (slides a bag with a handful of mora in it) (mutters) Keep the change.

Xiangling: (nods in thanks and quietly leaves)

Childe: (to Itto) Comrade?

Itto: (gruffly) Yeah?

Childe: (tiredly) You're right. Ushi is definitely a living being.

Itto: . . . now it just sounds like you're giving up-

Beidou: (puts her hands up in peace) Now, now, we can ask the beefcake ourselves once he comes back. (starts eating her rice and stew)

Childe & Itto: (begins to attempt to speak)

Beidou: (hums loudly and appreciatively) Mmm. This is the good shit. (gestures to them) Eat.

Itto: (smells the rich scents and takes a deep breath) Sure, sure. Yeah. (preps a bowl for Childe without looking at him) Here.

Childe: (gratefully) Thanks.

The restaurant is revived of life and restored to its former vitality.

Diluc: (pours tea for the others) This tea pairs well with the stew.

Beidou: (takes a sip) Oh yeah, it really does! (teasing) Zhongli's rubbing off on you, huh?

Diluc: (smiles lightly) It can't be helped that I picked a couple of things up.

---

Meanwhile, at Yuehai Pavilion, Zhongli and Ushi are currently sitting at a table with some tea, the bull in question on top of a comfortable pillow.

Zhongli: So I understand that you've seen a thing or two in your longevity and experience as an exorcist.

Ushi: Moo.

Zhongli: (nods) Oh, absolutely. The Arataki Gang is a lively bunch indeed, especially when you have such a critical role within it.

Ushi: Moo, moo.

Zhongli: (raises his eyebrows) Really now? If you don't mind me asking further-

Ushi: Moo!

Zhongli: (assuredly) Of course, of course. If you would like, I will even sign a contract with you ensuring the mutual agreement of my silence concerning these matters.

Ushi: Moo . . .

Zhongli: (solemnly) As the saying goes, 'my lips are sealed'.

Ushi: (nods) . . . moo?

Zhongli: Why yes, I also feel the distinct sensation that someone somewhere is talking about me. However, I do not feel the need to act upon it as it is likely only in passing.

Ushi: Moo, moo. Moo.

Zhongli: As you should, Ushi. As you should. Now, back to the topic at hand concerning particular encounters with ghosts . . .

---

The instant that Ushi showed signs of intelligence and sentience, my mind practically dragged me to the blank post before the Genshin Impact Wiki. So of course, I wrote something about it injected with an unhealthy dose of my own brand of crack as you do with these sort of things.

Yes, Ushi's dialogue is comprised entirely out of 'moo' like Hoyoverse intended and they are absolutely up to your own interpretation. Also, Zhongli can totally understand him as he's a long-lived former Archon and because, quite frankly, I said so.

6, 10, and 13?

6. when you first think of the fandom, what image comes to mind?

*looks at the genshin fandom on twitter*

*averts eyes*

Ahem, anyhow, I think one of the first images that comes to mind is xiao's splash art since that first banner was uh, An Experience LMAO or the paimon icon of the official twitter i guess?

10. what song do you associate with a ship?

I am pinning all the blame on xy (goldfinchex) for this one but beiguang with 海底 (bottom of the ocean) by 一支榴蓮 (one sprig of durian (??)) for the angsty side, or 魑魅魍魉 by Chalili茶理理 for the au potential!! Then there's For the Dancing and the Dreaming which- also beiguang but also hiccup's parents and ;u;

13. if you could be in the universe of the characters what would you do first?

Go to Liyue harbour if I didn't start there and eat at Wanmin's! Everything else can come after the initial *holy shit* moment and i have a filled stomach lmao

#eulacule #ask and i shall answer #this was a fun one lol #had to trawl on my phone for that second song because i do Not know how those characters are pronounced LMAOO #but after wanmin i think i would try to join the crux as like #a second hand for yinxing because archons knows how many scraps that crew gets into

[narcoticwriter]

Not gonna lie, I only watched the epilogue of Lantern Rite to get a taste of character interactions and I'm happy with it, so there.

#it was nice to see xiao tentatively come out of his shell #it definitely helped that zhongli and the traveler was there #and paimon i guess #wanmin gang was there too that was cool #and the two old men throwing shade was nice #i like interactions in general so really i have nothing to complain about #i liked it #genshin impact #narky thinks

[aster-go-brrr]

JUST TELL HIM IT'S TOFU???

#category 5 aster moment #receiver of friends from afar #WANGSHU INN'S FOOD ALLERGY PROTOCOLS NEED SOME WORK FOR REAL #WANMIN RESTAURANT WOULD NEVER #actually. xiangling regularly Does doesn't she HSHFHFHDHDA #NO. NO FUCKING BEANS OR HE DIE

[cashewally-sarcastic]

i need Xingqiu to seethe

I also need Xingqiu to seethe it would be hilarious

#actually I think it would be funny if Xingqiu THEN tries with a note or something but his handwriting is uh…illegible #buddy would end up at Wanmin Restaurant ranting to Xiangling I’m sure of it #hi steel! #love the art btw bestie

[rubys-domain]

damn, i still got a healthy amount of posts in the queue. i went a little ham in my last queuing spree huh

#⇢₊˚⊹ 🩷∥ruby∥yo，ide yo !! #and i'll have probably twice as many to add to the queue next time it runs out #i do like posts for the purpose of queuing them later #sometimes i'm just too lazy to queue stuff yk #like adding the tags and all that #anyway i'll just ramble about stuff under here #i hope that arnold (murderofbirds on youtube/twitch) has chongyun gameplay moments recorded at some point #hearing him admit that he wanted chongyun to be his main dps at first but then ended up not doing that made me :( #we seriously need more chongyun appreciation in this world #idk if he ever streamed character hangouts. or if he's uploaded the vods to youtube if he did #i don't want to sift through his channel to find out because i do enjoy his playthrough as-is. i kinda don't wanna spoil the experience by #finding out that he doesn't have any recorded content on chongyun at all and having much less motivation to keep watching his playthrough #it's hard for me to find good videos to watch over meals these days. and i'm not about to disqualify months' worth of genshin vods #i'm glad he reacted positively to xingqiu's story quest tho. especially after hating him as a playable unit (at first anyway) #people like him because he's meta but most people know jack about his character #i'm glad he can look past one aspect of a character he doesn't like and fully appreciate the other parts #can't say the same about myself with xiangling tho #idk she's just such a squick character for me. she annoys me to no end. i even stopped watching arnold's playthrough for a bit because of #how much he used xiangling and talking about how much he loves xiangling every two seconds #im glad he eventually benched her. and im also glad he didnt get to see her in wanmin restaurant like he was hoping to when he got to liyue #man i have very petty feelings towards xiangling lol #im still annoyed at my irl (ex-friend atp tbh) for going “nooo but she's so strong and metaaaa” when i told her about how much i dislike her #like fam. even if she did 1 mil damage with barely any investment i still wouldn't care. i don't like her. end of story #it's not like it's uncommon for people to hate bennett. and he's one of the most broken units in the game #(ironically i actually like bennett as a character) #(it's also why i insist on calling my main team chongqiunett instead of national variant. national implies xiangling is there) #i'm trying really hard not to go on a whole rant about everything i don't like about her #/sigh/ anyway.
