hii, how r u?

these days i have a bit of a baby fever so 😶‍🌫️ can i request childe, xiao and zhongli looking after their baby with their s/o (separately)? thank you!!!

fandom: genshin impact characters: childe, xiao, zhongli reader type: female summary: babies are tiny, cute, and noisy, and vulnerable, and soft, and if you see one, it's only natural you want to take care of them, or at the very least hope they're not in any discomfort. how do they look after their baby with you? genre: general, fluff, family-centric warnings: female reader, children, you and the characters are married notes: aaa, i loved making these ones! i needed some softness TwT

Childe.

He k n o w s his way around children! You can rest assured, he will always know what to do in any situation!

Your baby has the softest clothes and blankets and pillows and plushies, he WILL start spoiling your little one since the first minute.

He gets so hyper and soft when it's about your baby, it's endearing seeing him baby-talk to your little one and making them laugh and smile while he holds them.

When it comes to changing diapers, preparing meals, or bathing your baby, he's always there to help you (when he's around).

His job keeps him from being the type of father and husband he'd like to be, so he just doubles his efforts when he can spend long times with you!

That means, if baby wakes up in the middle of the night and you're just so tired all you want is sleep, Childe's got you covered!

He'll get up to take care of the baby until they fall asleep again and might also fall asleep in an uncomfortable position near the crib if it took too long for the baby to go back to sleep.

He's really the biggest fan of you and your baby, makes sure to capture each and every possible moment with a Kamera and keeps all the pictures in an album!

Will be very overprotective, if he can't be around he assings fatui agents that he trusts and have them be always nearby to watch over you and protect you or just run errands for you if you need anything.

He also tries his best to not be too reckless in battle, he wouldn't want to leave you or his child to fend for yourselves, after all!

In the unlikely case something terrible did end up happening to him, he already has a separate bank account he puts a lot of money in so he can make sure you won't be on your own if anything does happen.

Will also tell the child that he's a toyseller when the kid is old enough to ask about his profession. He wants to protect their innocence for as long as he can.

Xiao.

Seven Archons please help this man. He has zero idea how to treat people like, well, normal humans like you do. And now he has to look after a super tiny person? A baby? What do you do to a baby? What do you do with a baby?

I'm very sure he did research asking people he trusted and reading any book on the topic he could find, but when it comes to actually looking after the baby, his mind is empty.

Why do babies have to be so tiny and fragile.

He's spending less time on demon-hunting duty because there's absolutely no way he's letting you overexert yourself between resting after giving birth, caring for the baby and going back to work- let him support you and don't be stubborn!

Changing diapers isn't disgusting to him, it was just very confusing at first, but he soon got the hang of it.

He mostly stays in the sidelines when it comes to baths and feeding the baby, but he can prepare the food if you give him the proper instructions.

He won't admit it, but he lowkey got sad when you told him that your baby couldn't eat almond tofu just yet, he wants to share one of his little joys with his dear baby!

Xiao doesn't sleep, so logically, one would think that if he's around, then he wouldn't wake you up and take care of the baby instead, but it's actually not so common.

Most of the time, night is when he has to leave to tend to the duties he didn't do for the rest of the day, and he feels bad about it because he doesn't want to neglect his family and at the same time can't bring himself to stop doing his work.

That, and he's also incredibly anxious about anything refering to your child. Sure, throughout the day, even if you're busy at work, he can stay with the baby and if he runs into any trouble he can always ask for help from the inn boss, or if you're not so busy, he can ask you for help. There's always someone "safer" for the child to be around if his karma starts acting up.

At night he has no one to turn to, except you. So in especially rough nights, he wakes you up so you can help your baby.

He loves you and your child too much to put you or them in risk. Sometimes, protecting and caring for you two means that he has to be away until he's gotten things under control again.

But, he loves your child a lot. He really likes holding them in his arms, and also loves to play with them when they're a bit older.

TLDR he might be clumsy, and he learns quickly, but he's also very scared so don't leave him alone for too long.

Zhongli

He kind of knows and kind of doesn't know how to look after your little baby.

He has the knowledge, of course! But he also has these moments in which he doesn't exactly know how to apply it- luckily, you're around whenever that happens!

He's going to be THE most patient parent you'll ever see. He understands that babies are a lot of work, and that at times they won't stop crying and they can't really help it, so he's the most patient you'll ever see him being with his baby.

His voice is soothing, it will easily lull your little one to sleep!

Changes diapers like a pro after a couple tries.

He might be the one to give you tips on how to make the best baby food with the most nutritional value for a child at the age of yours and will tell you the history behind traditional baby foods and related trivia.

If your baby was sitting nearby on a baby chair you might have to wake them up to feed them tbh

Another super protective dad, won't let anything or anyone harm you or your little one in any way shape or form.

Goes out on walks with you and the baby and LOVES having them in his arms.

Even if you have a baby car, he wants to carry your baby in his arms and show them around his beloved city, even if the baby can barely talk he'll introduce them to everything!

One of the first words of your baby might be a badly pronounced big word because of Zhongli's large vocabulary

Zhongli will read bedtime stories for your baby, and for you too, since the crib is in your room.

He's very good at looking after the baby, probably the best of these three!

If it's not too much, can i request maybe some of your fav genshin men (and maybe some ladies too if that's not too much trouble but I totally understand if it isn't your thing!!) handling dating a reader who's been abused in previous relationships? I recently came out of one and your writing on ao3 has been a huge comfort (ur Xiao x readers especially both are really good and heartbreaking but also comforting)

Oh friend I hope you're doing alright, feel free to shoot me a PM if ever you want someone to talk to, I might not totally understand what you've been through but I'm always happy to lend an ear! that being said, of course I can write some headcanons about the genshins!

Diluc, Rosaria, Zhongli, Childe, Xiao, Thoma, Ayaka x Reder

Past mentions of abuse, hurt/comfort, fluff, angst

Diluc

🔥 He doesn't ask, he can already see the pain hidden behind a carefully sculpted visage.

🔥 He keeps touches light, gentle, loose, sometimes you would wiggle from his hold without explaination, other times you would slowly, but surely relax, it depended on the day, and that was fine.

🔥 Naturally, his first response when you do tell him about your previous relationship is to ask if you wanted the problem taken care of, just how taken care of? well, that was up to you.

🔥 but it sure did explain why you always hesitated ever so slightly before leaning into any touch, and that was that really had the fury burning in Diluc's veins.

🔥 if you tell him that no, you'd rather just not think about your ex ever again, he respects that.

🔥 That doesn't mean the darknight hero does though. Needless to say, irrelevant of your answer, your ex always seems to run into horrible trouble whenever they step foot into Mondstadt.

🔥 After which, he goes home, and hunkers down beside you, content to just exist in your presence, or to cuddle and press soft kisses into your hair, either is good.

Rosaria

🍷 As was commonplace with her, she's far more hands-off when it comes to you. That didn't mean she didn't do her own share of digging to discover exactly why you clammed up whenever someone swung an arm a little too close or raised their voice just a bit too loud.

🍷 Despite being a woman of solitude, Rosaria didn't mind your presence at all, a nice change of drinking buddy to Kaeya, who was a whole lot of bluster when he was tipsy, you managed to keep your head a bit better, and you talk alot less.

🍷 and perhaps, when no one else is watching, she finds herself prone to a nice lean, or a gentle twining of fingers, nothing too major at first.

🍷 Soon enough, there's talk that you have a rather interesting and dangerous little shadow following you through the streets, particularly after dark. It's not like you didn't know who it was, and you always happened to leave a nice glass of red wine on the windowsill until Rosaria finally decides to indulge with you.

Zhongli

🔸 He, admittedly, doesn't pick up on your hesitation right away, not because he's that dense, it's simply just because he's too traditional when it comes to courting.

🔸 ie: flowers and small tokens, friendly walks along the harbour, sharing a pot of tea, things like that, where there's little physical contact involved.

🔸 It's only after a particularly hard day at work for you, when you meet up with him and he can immediately sense the unease exhuming off you, when he opts to take you to a quieter tea-house where you finally break and explain you'd actually seen your ex that day, and why you were so afraid.

🔸 On the outside? he's as unflappable as always, offering sincere words of support and reassurance that he would keep you safe.

🔸 Inside? The fierce dragon god from the archon wars, the one who hurled spears of stone into the ocean to smite those who opposed him, rears it's vengeful head.

🔸 He asks if you would like to stay at his place that night, noticing that despite everything, you still were not quite as calm as you had tried to insist you were. Overjoyed when you actually do say yes.

🔸 A small part of him goes into 'domestic overdrive' in an attempt to placate your fears, soothing candles, a lovely, home cooked meal, anything and everything he can do to put you at ease, and he find's himself a little more thrilled than He'd like to admit when you lean in for a quick kiss.

🔸 Needless to say, He can't help but keep a closer eye on you after that, not overbearingly so but he doesn't like the idea of you having to deal with your abuser alone, and if they were to ever come into contact with the funeral consultant...well, the wrath of the rock would be them getting off lightly.

Childe

🐋 This idiot. He doesn't really realise just how bad your previous relationship had been until he half tackles you after a long, hard day of work, wanting nothing more than to sweep up his little flame and spoil you, being taken awfully aback when you flinch so hard that you drop to your knees.

🐋 Mistake number 2? interrogating you about your ex. what had he done, what did he look like? He doesn't even realise he's doing it until you burst into tears, the red, blinding fury dying instantly as you shrink back from him.

🐋 no, no absolutely not. Childe may be a battle hungry harbinger, but he knows when he's fucked up, and he's just fucked up real bad, bad enough that if his siblings knew, he'd get the cold shoulder from all of them, and a good scolding from his parents to boot.

🐋 His gears switch as quickly as they always do, he'd already fucked up by suddenly jumping you, so a hug was likely out of the question. Instead he does what he does whenever one of his little siblings would cry; he gently takes your hands, and he apologises for scaring you, he didn't mean to, he was just worried, angry that someone had hurt you this way, he spends damn near half an hour talking you back to calmness before he even attempts to hold you.

🐋 However, his apology and his admission that he was angry that someone had hurt you, reward him with a very faint squeeze when he presses his lips to the top of your head.

🐋 He would later, after you've calmed, absolutely spoil you rotten, because that's all he really knows how to do when it comes to someone he cares about, fancy dinner, cute clothes, the whole nine yards.

🐋 Maybe later, when you're asleep, something 'bad' might happen to your ex, either way, he ensures you never hear from him again.

Xiao

👹 He can tell, the moment he decides you're even somewhat worthy of his attention, he sees the way you hold yourself, the way you shrink at a raised tone, even if it's not directed at you, the way you grip at the hem of your shirt, find any excuse to slink away.

👹 He knows these signs well, because once upon a time, that was him. He's still bound by Karmic debt, but you? you didn't deserve to live this fear every day.

👹 He's...not great at approching you about it, in fact, he uses his ability to slink into dreams to discover the source of your fears, it's sneaky and underhanded, an invasion of privacy, but he has a face, he has a name.

👹 He will never tell you the kinds of horrible dreams he tormented your abuser with, he was contractually obligated to never bring harm to a human, but spook them out of Liyue? now that he could do, without so much as leaving his room at the Inn no less.

👹 However, he does keep a closer eye on you, and it doesn't go unnoticed by any of the regular staff at the inn. Verr in particular always seems to smile fondly whenever sees you now, and Smiley always seems to send up a second order of almond tofu, just in case.

👹 He's taken aback when you apologise for bothering him so much, you knew he wasn't particularly fond of people, but you felt a little safer with him around.

👹 He can only grunt, crossing his arms, it was fine, he said, he didn't mind you, you weren't too chatty and didn't try to make him leave the inn, your presence was more than acceptable. the closest thing to him ever being able to outwardly say that he enjoyed having you around that the yaksha could manage for a very long time. It was just a good thing you were rather perceptive, for a mortal.

Thoma

🍡 two words: Golden retriever. Thoma is never anything but sweet and kind to you, he doesn't ask or prod about your past, he knows bad things happened, and when you'd tried to force yourself to tell him, he took your hands in his, pressed a kiss to each knuckle and told you that you didn't need to, the fact you were even willing to say anything on the matter was all he needed to know.

🍡 Thoma isn't a man of violence, but he is a man of action, any particular day he sees that tense bunch in your shoulders; perhaps the guards had been a bit too rowdy again, or things were just a bit too loud, he immediately sets about brewing your favorite tea and making your favorite snacks, little things that would brighten your day.

🍡 And on the days where everything is too much? well, he always offers his hand first, as much as he'd love to engulf you in a hug, the hesitation was still there, and he'd never be able to live with himself if he scared you. So he waits until you want to cuddle, he'll absolutely put everything else on the back burner to tend to you, or, he'll bring you along with him, sometimes the fresh air and getting away from the usual haunts for a bit can help too.

🍡 Thoma isn't a vengful man by any means, but if he happens to spy your abuser in passing, he makes a note of it, he makes several notes over several encounters, before using his little web of contacts to discreetly make their life hell.

Ayaka

🍵 Much like her dear friend, Thoma, Ayaka doesn't push to know exactly what's happened, but she's a little more...over protective. Offering private rooms, any and all sorts of services to make you feel at ease.

🍵 Though, she's not upset when you timidly tell her that perhaps it's all a bit too much, you still had a life to live and you didn't want to have to rely on the younger kamisato for everything.

🍵 Ayaka isn't much known for leaving the estate herself, especially when Ayato is out, which is unfortunately most of the time. but when she does have a free day, you're the first person she comes to for companionship.

🍵 Walks in the forest, or a trip up to the shrine (it's got such a lovely view!) the very rare trip into inazuma city, although, you both find yourselves a little overwhelmed by the crowds there sometimes, the eyes on ayaka and her seemingly average companion.

🍵 So it's no real surprise when she offers her hand, something you happily take, Ayaka was a skilled fighter, but a gentle soul at heart, you knew she'd never hurt you.

🍵 she does however, marvel at your skin, apparently your skin was so very soft with minimal effort, something she was rather in awe of. Holding hands soon became pedestrian, for she so loved to brush her fingers along your cheek, cup your face in her hands with that gentle smile that told you everything would be ok...
