you’ve almost got it! also i mean all of this in a friendly non-bitchy way, just to clarify preemptively
i’m not bi, but i have many friends who are & have been in that community for a long time & have given me more information about it. i am pan, however, and have identified as such & been in the community for many years! (and have been caught in the middle of this type of discourse many, many times in the pvp arena that is twitter.)
bisexuality, to my understanding, can be defined a few different ways: being attracted to both masculine & feminine people, being attracted to genders both like & unlike your own, and being attracted to 2 or more genders. i’ve seen different people define it different ways, and while i don’t think there’s one right way to be bi (or anything else), i’m not sure which of these definitions is the most widely related to, so i’m listing them all. what i am sure of, though, is that bisexuality does not exclude trans or nonbinary people! we have always & will always be included. so yeah, it doesn’t only mean “attraction to men and women” and most bi people i’ve spoken to seem to dislike that definition (mostly bc the way it’s worded excludes some nb people). also, it’s not uncommon for bi people to have a preference or “lean” towards one gender/s more than another.
pansexuality, which i’m much more familiar with, can also be defined multiple ways: being attracted to all genders, or being attracted to people regardless of gender (i’m sure there’s others, but from my own experience & all the pan people i’ve spoken to, those are the most widely used descriptions). however, it’s not necessarily accurate to say that being pan is being attracted to personality and not looks (or as some people have put it, “hearts not parts”). firstly, because this could imply that other sexualities are only attracted to looks & not personality; second, because it could imply that pan people aren’t attracted to looks at all; and third, because it entirely disregards the split attraction model that many people including myself use (for example: pansexual/aromantic, panromantic/asexual, etc etc). pansexuality can express both physical & emotional/romantic attraction just like any other orientation! also, pansexuality also includes both trans & nb people, obviously. i’ve found it’s much less common for pan people to have a preference or lean, but some of us do!
overall, bi & pan are admittedly very similar, and there’s a great deal of overlap in the people someone who uses one of these labels might be attracted to, but they are slightly different. both are valid, neither erases the other, and neither is transphobic. at the end of the day, the labels we put on our sexualities and orientations are nothing more than tools to serve us and help us express ourselves. they aren’t rigid boxes we must contort ourselves to fit into, and they certainly aren’t weapons with which to harm others (i’m looking at the people who say bisexuality is transphobic as i say that). labels can flex and bend and adopt new/more meanings over time just like any other word in our language, and that’s ok! the way everyone experiences attraction is different and complex, and labels are only here for our own comfort, and sometimes finding a community of similar people. there’s no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to be bi or pan or anything else, as long as you’re not blatantly disregarding the meaning (like.. someone calling themself a lesbian but expressing attraction to men, or something like that).
anyways, not to ramble or get on my soapbox or anything. again, i’m not the Pan Authority or w/e, nor is there one. everyone has their own thoughts & opinions - these are just mine. sorry this got kinda long; i hope some of this helped and made sense, i’m not great at articulating skdfhlkshfk!!!
if you saw me edit this like 3 times no you didn’t. i fucked up my grammar leave me be /j
Can y'all bitches settle something for me bc it came up in conversation
and i know i'm going to get some heat for this but
the stupid fucking "bisexuals like men and women while pan like everyone" is ridiculous and incorrect
because pansexuality is liking someone regardless of gender right? you dont care about looks? You're in it for the personality, correct? that's what i've always been taught when learning about pansexuality
meanwhile bisexuality does indeed care about looks while pansexuality doesnt. however contrary to popular belief, bisexuality does not exclude transgenders and nonbinaries. If you're hot you're hot, right?
I dont think people who identify as bisexual but exclude the other genders from the two main ones are bisexuals? if that makes sense?
at the end of the day, i know "identify how you want to identify" but pansexuality prioritizes personality and disregards gender, right? meanwhile bisexualty still cares about how you look, but does not exclude any gender. yes there are types and you can lean one way more than another but if you're hot you're hot?
idk if this makes sense, i'm bad at wording things, and I'm also still learning despite being in the community so?
help me learn this, am i correct or incorrect
pansexual is for personality and for everyone
bisexual is for looks and for everyone
also if you're going to try to correct me but be a bitch about it, then i'll just assume i'm right and you're wrong because? why you gotta be mean about it baby? i'm just asking a question and trying to learn more about this. i'm sorry if i'm wrong and i have the wrong mindset but?? at least i'm trying to learn aye?

-----
- The tavern was bustling when you and Kaeya had came for a little bit of drinking. Drunken cheers and hearty laughter filling the place top to bottom. You stood close to Kaeya who easily made his way through.
"It seems all of Mondstadt had the same ideas as us," Kaeya chirps, gently pushing past people who stood around tables.
Kaeya leads you up the stairs. Although it was still a little full, at least the people up here stayed mostly seated, only a few leaning against the railing. Kaeya pulls out a chair of a far end table.
"A perfect spot." Kaeya sighs as he leans back into his chair. "I don't mind a little partying, but not every occasion I spend here consists of the same loudness."
You sat across from Kaeya with your arms crossed on the table. You could see down below of the bar with stools filled with men and women, the surface dirtied with spills and crumbs.
"Well, I'm going down to get our drinks. The usual?" Kaeya asks, already hopping of out his seat.
You nod with a smile, Kaeya flickers his own pearly whites and struts down. Once he's gone, you lean your head on the table, your cheeks burning.
You had hoped the tavern wouldn't be so full. You wanted it to have a nice, slow pace perfect for a romantic setting. It was a beautiful place at night if it has no ruckus, but what could you expect? The people here love their alcohol.
You sigh, leaning your chin on your hand when you look down. You instantly spot Kaeya's rich blue hair amongst the crowd. He's at the bar, and a woman has her hand on his back. Kaeya is smiling at her, chatting away while he seemingly waits for the drinks.
You and Kaeya weren't a thing, not yet at least, but you were trying to make progress. You weren't even completely sure of his type of guy. He never brought it up. You knew he flirted around with all types, but that's mainly for work; when he needed answers. What he does at work doesn't reflect what he likes in his own time, right?
Lost in your own thoughts, a tall mug is suddenly placed down in front of you. You jolt up. Kaeya laughs as he slides back into his chair.
"Did I startle you? My bad." He takes a swig of his drink. "It seems like your head was in the clouds."
You rub the back of your neck sheepishly, apologizing. Kaeya waves his hand.
"It's fine, but since it's just the two of us I'd like it if you paid more attention to me~" Kaeya smirks, a chuckle leaving his lips as he drinks.
Your face heats up. There he goes again, saying things that make your heart race. Did he find it fun to make you embarrassed? Or was there depth to his words? Your mind traces back to the women he chatted with. Your fingers tap your mug.
"Hey, Kaeya..."
Kaeya hums, his eyes never leaving you as your mind stumbles across your thoughts for the right words.
"What kind of women do you like?" You cringe at yourself. It came off too blunt, too nosey. Knowing Kaeya, he could definitely sniff out the intentions of your question.
Kaeya looks up to the ceiling, leaning back and crossing his arms. His eye seems to struggle, but his lips are amused.
"Hard to say. My attraction in the women's department has been quite hard to figure out. I've met some lovely ones though."
"So. Which do you like more?" Your voice came out a little weird, you were obviously suspicious now. Though, at this point, perhaps directness is better.
Kaeya leans in close, his elbows on the table. "Oh my, am I being interrogated?"
You take a long sip of your drink, letting it take over your senses. You release with a sigh.
"No, I just wanna know," you say, hardly even believing yourself. "I wanna get a little closer is all..."
Kaeya's eye shines. "I have some taste for women, but men have always been a little more of my flavour."
Kaeya suddenly reaches out, his hand sliding across the table until his fingers reach yours resting beside your drink. His fingertips kiss yours. His gaze never leaves you.
"Men who make me feel comfortable and free, men who can make me feel like I'm on top of the world again, make me laugh," Kaeya grabs your hand and brings your fingers to his lips. "men who can make me open my heart to them."
His lips kiss your knuckles. Your face was burning to the tips of your ears. Your mouth opens but you close it in case you say something stupid to ruin it. Although you felt embarrassed, your body was relaxed, his tender touch making you feel light.
"So, me?" You mutter, almost drowned out by the clinking of beer mugs.
"I just described my type, didn't I? It seems you match it perfectly." Kaeya purrs then releases your hand. Your fingers felt cold without his.
The table was quiet for a moment. You processed his words and your thoughts. Kaeya chugged down the last of his drink and wiped the side of his mouth.
"I'm going to get a refill." Kaeya stands up, patting the top of your head before leaving. "I'll be waiting for your confession, lover boy~"

Anyone else have an unpopular love for "powerful character x civilian reader"?
It's just
So soft cmon

Hi! May I request headcanons about Childe Kaeya Zhongli and Bennett reacting to male reader saying "it's so nice being hugged by you" or "you're so warm" (basically anything cute) when they hug him?
Sorry if I'm sending this the second time, I'm just not sure if I sent it/it got sent! Hope it's ok! If you already got this request, don't take this as me trying to rush you! Absolutely take your time!
This is actually one of the ones I accidentally deleted while working on so thank you for re sending this!
Kaeya
-as smooth as he is you say one cute thing to him while he’s hugging you and he’s gone
-“your hugs are the best...”
-turned to love sick goop
-definitely squeezes you gushing about how cute his boyfriend is
-he may squeeze the air out of you
-you could say the most simple thing and he turns into love filled mush
-“I have the sweetest boyfriend ever!!”
Zhongli
-when he hugs you he loves it when you say anything
-he just loves hearing your voice so close to him
-and then you go and say that he’s nice and warm?
-he would squeeze you a little harder and hide his face in your shoulder
-would mumble about how he needs a warning before you say something so sweet
Bennett
-he already gives very tight hugs
-so if you say anything cute, you may be risking your life
-even something as small as, “I love your hugs” will make him trap you in a deathly love squeeze
-be warned
-he sequels about how cute his boyfriend is and will brag about anything you say
-he thinks your word is law because you are a god to him
Childe
-SMUG TO THE EXTREAM
-you give him one cute sentence and he wants more
-“your really warm,Childe.”
-“oh? Then how about I become your only heat source~”
-he will never let you forget any of the cute things you say
-has and will rank them by how cute they are
-sometimes even gives you scores just to mess with you
