HOW THE MORTALS DO

— CHARACTERS :: Xiao x Adeptus!Reader.

— SUMMARY :: You have always been fascinated by the mortals and their traditions, and Xiao can't help but take notice of this. So, he surprises you with a typical human tradition when they like someone.

— WARNING :: None.

HOW THE MORTALS DO

You sat perched on a roof top, watching with the utmost interest as a young woman recieves a flower from a handsome man. She takes the flower in her fingers, a smile gracing her lips as she looks up to meet the mans eyes. He says something you're unable to hear, but whatever it was made the woman smile even wider before throwing her arms around his neck and kissing the man. "Oh!" You look the other way, up at the stars before glancing back and seeing their hands now linked together and walking away. "Hmm... Mortals are so fascinating." You stand up, stretching out your limbs before deciding to return to Xiao, who's likely waiting at the Wangshu Inn for you.

"Were you waiting long?" You call out, stepping next to your fellow adeptus.

"No." Xiao's eyes don't leave the horizon. "...Where were you?"

"At Liyue Harbor," You tell him, "Watching the mortals! I witnessed something so intriguing! A man gave this pretty woman a flower," you glance at him, trying to watch his face for any reaction but it remained neutral. "And then they kissed!" His nose crinkled in disgust.

"Why?"

"Why did they kiss?" He nods and you hum, leaning against the wooden railing. "I think... Because they love each other." You weren't looking, but his eyes widened a fraction. Love. That was something that had been on his mind for quite sometime now. He swallowed down the want to ask for more- what is love? why was he so fascinated with it suddenly? was it the warm feeling he got in his chest when he saw you?

"I don't understand your fascination with them." He says quietly, eyes falling to the scenery below. "Don't you ever get bored of their interactions?"

"You just don't see it the way I do." You pout, looking over at him. "I wish you could see them through my eyes, then you'd see how captivating they are! I wish I could recieve a flower from someone who loves me..." You grumble, looking back at the horizon, the moment from earlier filling your mind.

"Mmm..." He looks over at you, thinking for a moment before deciding to leave for the night. "Let's meet tomorrow. Here, same time."

"Wait-" Before you got the chance to ask why he was suddenly leaving, Xiao disappeared. You sigh, grumbling about how he always seems to leave a little too early for your liking.

But, just as he asked, you returned to the inn the following night. Returning to the top balcony of the Wangshu Inn earlier than normal, you found he wasn't there. "Hm, he's always here before me..." You wait a while longer, not recognizing his presence until he spoke up.

"Y/n?" You jump at his voice, turning to face him- You go to scold him only to stop and stare at him with wide eyes. Although trying to act nonchalant as he holds out the Qingxin flowers, Xiao's heart is pounding against his ribcage. "These are for you." Your eyes swirl with adoration as you take the flowers from his hands, your fingers sparking with electricity as they graze his fingertips. You giggle, smelling them like you've seen the mortals do.

"Xiao! Thank you!" You smile brightly, looking up at him to see his ears and cheeks are tinted red. You hum, taking a step forward and cupping his cheek gently before pressing a kiss to the other one. You take a step back and you can almost see the steam that radiates off of him.

"I-It was nothing," he looks the other way, unable to meet your gaze. "Yesterday you said you wanted flowers, and I just happened to see them."

"Is that so?" You pluck one of the flowers off of the stem and then placing it behind his ear. "Oh wow," You whisper, "You're so pretty, Xiao!" Maybe you wanted to give your fellow adeptus a heart attack or maybe you were entirely oblivious to how he was affected by your actions, but either way, Xiao was trying his hardest to act unaffected.

"You..." He huffs, plucking the flower from behind his ear and tucking it behind yours. He softens a bit, "It looks better on you." Your pretty sure your cheeks are on fire after that, and now its your turn to look the other way. You clear your throat, wondering if you should say what was on your mind or not but before you could Xiao spoke. "These mortal customs aren't... aren't terrible."

And you couldn't deny that you agreed. Instead you leaned forward, and with a coy smile you say, "Shall I teach you some more then?”

concept: malewife childe. he gets tired of being far away from you on missions & leaves his position as a harbinger to become a house husband. imagine waking up on a lazy morning and trudging to the kitchen to see him cooking breakfast in a pink apron with nothing underneath. u smack his ass and say good morning and he holds up a piece of bacon to your mouth, so you take a bite, but he kisses you and steals it back- (ok, this started out as a joke to clown on childe but idk if im joking anymore)

!!! Domestic malewife Childe!!!!

Sweet house husband Childe who learns how to cook your favorite food, who knows how cold or warm you prefer to keep the house, lighting a fire in the hearth or opening the windows accordingly <3 akjdsnak bRuh domestic Childe would be sooo sweet because even if he's retired, he's obvs still loaded from his days as a harbinger, so you two can live comfortably!! He'd buy such sweet heartfelt gifts aksjdnkajsn

AND THE THING w the apron and the holding up the piece of bacon for u to eat–– aksjdnskj. A DREAM <#3

This started out as a joke, but bestie I don't think it's a joke anymore––

Hi, so this has just been floating around my head all day long and I need to share it with someone.

So, like, the Traveller comes from another world, right? Right. We all know this. But like??? No one ever said what world they came from. And, moreover, they never said what era that world was in, right? Like, even if time travel wasn't involved, I imagine that different universes progress differently, right? So basically, where I'm going with this, is imagine a traveler who's just... A gen z or millenial. And they just make all sorts of meme references constantly and no one knows what the FUCK they're talking about. Like:

Traveler: Beesechurger.

Kaeya, a little drunk and crying: What does that mEAN?!

--

Traveler: Look at all those chickens!

Diluc: For the last time, those are pigeons.

--

Traveler: Why are we here? Just to suffer?

Jean: No we're having a meeting. Are you okay??

--

Traveler: Hey, Zhongli, how much Mora do you have?

Zhongli: Oh. Uhhh, 69.

Traveler: Oh! You know what that means!

Zhongli: It means I have 69 mora, I don't know what you want from me here.

And then, Venti, who knows just as much as the others, gets in on it and has the traveler teach him their ways bc he just thinks it's hilarious

hahahah! These had me rolling!!

Traveler: *Stares into the camera just deadpan* I sure hope it does

All other party members: .... WUT

--

anytime the traveler walks by the steps of Mondstadt: and they were roommates

Katherine, visibly concerned

--

Traveler: *whispering as they move toward a group of treasurer hoarders* Two bro’s chillin in the hot tub ...

Jean: ... there are more than two ... what is a hot tub?

⭒ childe/reader: killshot ⭒

oh god, can you make my heart stop?

hit me with your kill shot, baby.

i mean it, so serious.

- killshot, magdalena bay

this one’s for you killshot anon (blows you a kiss) thanks for the brainrot i haven’t been able to stop thinking about enemies to lovers childe for DAYS

pairing: childe/reader

characters: childe

genre: fluff?? idk what to classify this as

word count: 599

The sound of your weapon clattering to the ground is an all-too-familiar one. Getting tossed to the ground has you gasping, the impact knocking the breath out of you.

“I win.” His goading voice reaches your ringing ears. “Again.”

You’re not sure how many times this is now, but you expect what happens next; Childe’s towering figure casting your own crumpled one into shadow. Every time, you get better. Every time, you think you’ll finally win.

Yet, every time, the bastard manages to beat you, that damned smirk never leaving his stupid, stupid face.

He prowls ever closer, and you can feel the thumping of his boots through the floor.

Ilysm, just gotta start there. Have you ever considered insecure Bakugou? Kid grew up being the strongest and the best and now he's around equals he's low key scared he's not good enough. Got the biggest praise kink with his SO, tell him how much you liked watching his fight, how good he feels, how you want to kiss and lick at his tiddies and he's just gone. 🖤🧡🖤💥

Ilysm, Just Gotta Start There. Have You Ever Considered Insecure Bakugou? Kid Grew Up Being The Strongest

So Bakugou unashamedly thinks he’s the best at everything, and even if he doesn’t think he’s the best at something he’ll still give his all regardless because Bakugou Katsuki doesn’t half ass anything.

It’s the times where he tries his hardest and fails when he feels most insecure. It inflates his ego to no end to hear praise from you. Whether it’s just you telling him what a good job he did at something or telling him he looks good today. He’ll usually brush it off with a “piss off” or “whatever, dumbass.” But really, those little comments from you can make his entire day, his heart beating fast.

The times when you’re alone together it’s a lot different. Bakugou accepts your compliments with less of a fight. Gentle caresses, fingers brushing his hair out of his eyes as you lean up to give him a sultry kiss. “You were so amazing today, Katsuki. So powerful.” You whisper against his lips and he’s gone, hands gripping your hips tight as he smashes his lips down on yours harder, fingers digging into your supple skin, sure to leave marks.

“Damn right I’m the best, Baby.” He says it in the hopes you’ll continue to compliment him. Stroking his ego further.

“I love when you wear this, you look so sexy.” Your fingers brushing against the tight material of his muscle shirt, running your fingers over his pecs. You can feel his nipples pebbling under the thin material, squeezing his pecs gently as you begin to kiss down his neck. Bakugou can’t help but smirk down at you, puffing out his chest slightly as you continue to rub your hands along it.

When Bakugou is jealous you’re in for a wild ride, he has no qualms about stepping in between you and a potential competitor, swearing at them with palms sparking as he drags you away. “Fucking pathetic extra-” Bakugou gets really annoyed with himself internally over his jealousy sometimes, regretting reacting so harshly and dragging you away, letting his temper get the better of him. Worried you’re going to get sick of his attitude and dump him, completely unaware that his behaviour is a huge turn on. Your words instantly reassuring him, making him feel better. “I don’t want anyone else, I only want you.”

Sometimes you don’t even make it as far as his/your room. Instead he tugs you into an empty classroom or quiet alley/hallway. Slamming you against the wall as he lowers his face to your own, “Do I have to remind you who the fuck you belong to?”

“No, Katsuki. I’m all yours.” Hearing those words give an even bigger stroke to his ego, his hands moving along your curves before they rest on your ass, bringing you closer to him.

“No one could make you feel like I make you feel,” Bakugou growls into your ear, slipping his fingers under your skirt to brush against your clothed slit.

“There’s no one better than you, ‘Suki.” Your words sending a pulsing heat straight to his cock.
