Her With A Selectively Mute S/O

— them with a shy s/o

CW: NONE APPLICABLE.

liyue girls <33333

characters included: beidou, ningguang, hu tao, yanfei

beidou ✧˖*࿐

beidou loves to round up her crew for drinks! of course, she has to force her shy s/o aboard to introduce them to the crew

“my esteemed crewmates, meet [Y/N],” beidou announces in a booming voice, “we’ve been dating for a while, so i figured it’s high time i introduce them to all of you.”

beidou’s announcement is met with varied shouts of congratulations and the occasional pat on the back. your girlfriend turns to look at you, a smile across her face.

“[Y/N], you look like you’re about to hop ship,” she says in a quieter volume, her voice clear to you despite the clamor, “they’re good people. they won’t bite. they’re happy to see you.”

“ah, no, i trust them,” you explain, beidou’s gaze not moving from your own, “it’s just… i’m not super good with crowds. but i want to make a good impression, y’know? i want to be close with my girlfriend’s crew.”

beidou laughs and gives you a playful slap on the back. “[Y/N], don’t sweat it. nobody could possibly dislike you. besides, if they so much as insult you, i’ll have ‘em walk the plank. good ol’ fairytale pirate style. c’mon, i’ll pour you a glass of rum and i’ll take care of their barrage of questions.”

ningguang ✧˖*࿐

only the most high-class members of liyuean society are able to get an invite to any sort of gala ningguang hosts. it’s only natural to feel out of place in such an esteemed scenario.

“something the matter, darling?” ningguang’s voice says. you turn to see her standing beside you, her delicate hand wrapped around the bottom of a fine wine glass. “you’ve been by yourself all this time… i can’t help but wonder if my party isn’t to your liking.”

“no, no, it’s just that i’ve never been to a party that’s so…” you ponder your choice of words, “high society.”

ningguang lets out a gentle laugh that even sounds rich. “[Y/N], while they’re all upper class members of society, they’re still most certainly people. and mind you, they’re all beneath me in terms of their wealth and status,” she assures you, taking a sip of her undoubtedly costly wine, “should i approach them with your hand in mine, they’ll fall at your feet and kiss the ground you walk on.”

you gulp. “no offense, but you don’t find that to be a bit too… cocky?”

ningguang hums to herself. “[Y/N], when this is your company, the cockiest,” she emphasizes your casual choice of words as if it’s a swear, “are the only ones to stay above water. now, come with me. i’d love to show off my date to my guests.”

hu tao ✧˖*࿐

hu tao’s over-eccentric nature makes it tough to slink away. not to mention, tough to hold a frown!

hu tao accepts the bill from the wanmin restaurant, promptly scribbling her signature on the bottom of the slip. she holds up the paper to your waitress, xiangling, with a smile.

“wangsheng footing the bill of your guys’ lunch date again?” xiangling chirps, taking the receipt.

“hehe, you bet,” hu tao smiles, cupping her hand over your own, “[Y/N] here loves this place. doesn’t stop talking about it whenever i try my hand at cooking!”

xiangling laughs and places her hand on her hip. “is hu tao a poor chef, [Y/N]?” she asks.

you glance over at hu tao, whose smile hasn’t faded. “um… she’s… adequate? well, in terms of cooking…” you find yourself unsure of how to answer xiangling. the young chef usually doesn’t ask you questions.

“aw… my cute lil’ [Y/N] is too nice to speak up,” hu tao giggles, “go on, tell xiangling about my attempt at calla lily seafood soup! you were totally green and were suddenly ‘full’ after one bite.”

you feel yourself run hot in the cheeks. “no, hu tao, it wasn’t that bad…”

xiangling roars in laughter, interrupting your half-baked excuse. “perhaps hu tao should resort to offering free home-cooked meals as a way to bring in more customers!”

“that’s actually a great idea!” she gasps, her eyes wide. you can’t help but wonder if she’s serious.

yanfei ✧˖*࿐

yanfei is always so busy with clients :( you’re happy to help by bringing in tea for your hardworking girlfriend and her guests, though!

you gently knock at the door, careful not to disturb yanfei while she was working.

“come in!” her voice shouts. you click the handle and push the door, careful not to topple your tray of tea.

“ah, [Y/N]!” yanfei beams, “happy to see you.” she turns to her clients. “our kind server here is my partner, [Y/N]. do you guys like jasmine tea?”

her clients nod, offering you a smile. you feel your shyness kick in once the unfamiliar gazes meet your own. you place down the tray on an empty space on yanfei’s desk, making extra-special precaution not to run the risk of spilling tea on her precious codices.

“[Y/N], i don’t believe we’ve met,” the female client says with a gentle smile, “how long have you known yanfei?”

you find yourself taken aback at the sudden question and turn your gaze to yanfei, who giggles.

“[Y/N] here is a bit shy,” she explains, pouring tea into a small cup, “we’ve known each other for about a year but have only been dating for the last few months! they’re super helpful with assisting me in my work.”

the clients chuckle. “are you familiar with the law in such an intricate manner as your girlfriend?” the man asks.

“i usually help quiz yanfei on certain statutes,” you say quietly, “‘course she doesn’t need it… i think she just enjoys having a captive audience to ramble about law.”

the room erupts in laughter. you’re not sure whether or not you want to sink into the floor.

“your partner is a riot, miss yanfei!” the woman says.

yanfei smiles up at you from her seat. “i know, huh? they truly are a special find.”

Starts out as sucrose doodle only but then i remembered that I love women

I don't really know how many letters is too many so sorry in advance! For the fluff alphabet could you do Amber C, D and N?

You can request as many letters as you like!

Fluff Alphabet: C D N

Characters: Amber

Icon credit:Leheia

-

C omfort - How would they help their s/o when they feel down/have a panic attack etc.?

Amber starts to freak out a bit herself. Her bubbly personality shifts into panic mode whenever her partner is having a panic attack.

She at first struggles to help calm her s/o and there worries. Gets them whatever they need, a glass of water? Amber already has it ready for you. Perhaps you want some space instead? Your girlfriend will give you the space you want and promise to return soon.

She has her shoulder ready to cry on if you feel like crying. placing her undivided attention towards her s/o, Amber listens to everything her s/o has to say, there worries, angers, thoughts, she listens to it all.

She uses food as a way to help make you feel better. Making something herself (although not always the best)or buying thing from Good Hunter. Sometimes food can be the remedy to your concerns.

D reams - How do they picture their future with their s/o?

She pictures the future from time to time. But Amber is more curious on her s/o's views on the future and ask them instead more than herself.

She enjoys picturing different scenarios and such. Most of her views of the future include her s/o as she dreams that she and her lover are still dating

She imagines her placement at the Knights of Favonius and what the future for her s/o may hold. You are looking for your twin, what happens after you find them? Oof

She doesn't think too much of bad scenarios occurring it leaves a bad feeling in her stomach and that idea of dread will follow her for the rest of day. If that pit of dread grows too much she'll ask her s/o what they would do in said situation were to occur.

N icknames - What do they call their s/o?

She's not too big on Nicknames, but she has a couple she likes to call her s/o by.

It also depends on her lovers opinion on nicknames, if you like them she'll use them more often. If not she'll use them occasionally.

One nickname is the shorter version of your name which she uses most commonly.

Other nicknames that are more rare are based around things you like, Amber notices you take a huge liking to something, she may start calling you that.

She has a couple teasing nicknames as well but she doesn't use them as much. Depends on the atmosphere of the situation

no thoughts, head empty, just Columbina & Arlecchino

yoimiya s/o hcs?

— ⚡️ DATING YOIMIYA

includes — yoimiya

warnings — pre 2.0 release

pronouns — they/them

words cannot describe the amount of love and care this girl has in her body for you — like she legitimately thinks you hung the stars and moon in the sky, that’s how much she loves you

^ basically me saying that a relationship with yoimiya is nothing but pure and true love

she loves to drag you around to her favourite spots around inazuma — all of which have open skies with very little people around — so she can set off special fireworks

speaking of fireworks — her favourite one that she’s made, is named after you

yoimiya always recommends buying that one first when talking to guests, and she always describes it as the most beautiful and vibrant one that you can buy (wipes tears from my eyes)

expect to be stared at a lot when you talk — like i said in the first line, yoimiya is absolutely smitten with you and everything you do

all down to the way you speak, the way you laugh, the way you tilt your head when you’re confused, and the way you look up at the fireworks going off in the sky — she’s enchanted by the smallest of things

yoimiya introduces you to everyone she knows — bragging about not only how lucky she is, but also how much you inspire her to continue doing what she’s doing (she credits a lot of her ideas to you!)

overall — yoimiya is a committed and loving partner, who treats you like gold and would do basically anything for you

love and cherish this girl because i guarantee that there will never be a dull moment when she’s around, and she will help you live your life to the fullest

i want a yoimiya >:(

OMG.I JUST SAW UR EVENT SO I RAN TO UR ASKBOX JXJDKDK (≧▽≦)

may i request something like.. 5:45 am watching the sunrise with yoimiya? any character of your choice is fine too!! i love all the genshin girls and ur writing for them is fantastic <3 /gen

5:45am

The sun begins to peek above the horizon as you cuddle farther into Yoimiya's side, wrapping the blanket around you tightly. She slings an arm across your shoulders, pressing a kiss to your temple. The sight of the beginning of a day was one that you would never forget especially since you got to share it with your lover. In a hushed voice she says, "Wow, isn't that pretty?" Nodding against her shoulder, you quietly respond, "Yeah, but not as pretty as you." The sudden flirt causes Yoimiya to turn away and cough in an attempt to cover up her flustered state. You giggle as she pouts and exclaims, "That's not fair! You can't catch me off guard like that!" A wide grin breaks out on your face as you lean up to kiss the tip of her nose. "I couldn't help it, you're just too cute, Sparky."

a/n: wahh ty for requesting boo :DD you're so sweet and i'm vv glad you enjoy my writing, i feel so honored ;-; i hope u have a good day/evening <3

— pet names they use —

Synopsis: inazuma characters and the pet names they use!

Warnings: none

Game/ fandom: genshin impact

Characters: all inazuma characters

Pronouns for reader: all(?)

A/n: hello everyone! This idea has been stuck in my head for days and I have no clue why I didn’t write it sooner TvT (I accidentally posted this way to early so if you saw that… no you didn’t)

Ayaka: love, lovely, and your name

Ayaka is a smile woman, only using love/ lovely when you’re alone, and your name out in public. The only exception to that is if you’re around… important people. Like sara for example. In a meeting of sorts, she won’t hesitate to say “love can you hand me that piece of paper”

Yoimiya: baby, sweetie, spark

Typically using baby or sweetie all the time. Though does throw in spark once and a while. It started off as a joke, with yoimiya saying “oh my adorable little sparky” as a joke… you know (please don’t ask for context because I can’t give it to you, I just know she’d do this :’)) But then she actually started calling you spark.

Thoma: darling, sweetheart, prince/princess

Only addresses you with utmost respect, and sweetness in his voice. Even during a fight he’ll be kind, and use these pet names. He uses them out in public too, not shying away from pda, but of course he’ll respect you and your boundaries, so if you’re not comfortable with that he’ll only use pet names when you’re alone or not around many people.

Sara: your name

I honestly think she’s too nervous to use pet names, and feels like you’ll think she’s being disrespectful. She doesn’t know why, but because of how much she respects you she only calls you by your name. Maybe a nickname.

Kokomi: love, sweetheart, baby, cutie, angel

Not ashamed to use pet names, and literally will call you the sweetest things you can think of. She thinks it’s so fitting for you because she of course thinks you’re a sweetheart.

Gorou: babe, and love

Gorou is a tough one, I genuinely had no clue what to put down for him. Though I had to settle on something. He probably called you puppy/pup once and now he says it in private. Just cause.

Itto: gorgeous, pretty, and something relating to an inside joke of yours

Worships you to the point where he calls you gorgeous and pretty when addressing you. And for the inside joke part… that’s for you to decide. He could call you “beans” just cause it has to do with some joke you have. Actually yeah. He probably calls you beans even though he’s literally allergic to them.

Kazuha: anything and everything

This man could literally call you “trash can” and it would sound like the most heavenly thing you’ve ever heard. The way he uses his words is so…????? To the point where he can make anything sound like a pet name.

Ei: sweetie

Doesn’t really think pet names are… useful. When you explain it to her as a, “endearing name you call someone you love” she probably is like “well… I love you… and I love deserts… I could call you cake?” You decided on sweetie after that.

Yae: my love, and darling

The way her voice says ‘my love’ when addressing you is so… soothing. She isn’t even saying your name and she suddenly has you wrapped around her finger with a few simple words.

Genshin Characters reacting to their S/O introducing them as their “best friend”

Characters: Ayaka, Shinobu, Beidou, Ganyu, Hu Tao, Shenhe x GN!Reader.

Warnings: None! Just fluff and comfort <3

“I haven’t introduced you two. She’s Ayaka, my best friend.”

Ayaka is immediately heartbroken, but as a Yashiro Commissioner member, she knows better than to let her emotions reflect on her expression, so on the outside no one would suspect she’s been affected by those two words.

But she has. Oh, she has.

She’s fairly inexperienced when it comes to social interaction, all the more so when it comes to a romantic relationship. She trusts that you love her, and she’s endlessly happy for everything that you do for her, but she’s not quite so confident when it comes to her own doings. Ayaka is constantly questioning herself, whether she should voice her opinion more around you or not, should she ask to hold your hand or would it be inappropriate, should she tell you how deeply-rooted her affection for you is or would that be too much, or too soon.

So when she hears you call her your best friend instead of her lover, she can’t help but think that perhaps this is your way of telling her you wish to not be her lover anymore, and the thought alone breaks her heart.

She’s silent for the remaining of the outing, even long after your friend is gone. She tries to not let it show and continues acting around you as she usually does, but you know her well enough to see behind her mask of politeness, so you confront her when you arrive at the Kamisato state.

“Do you… By any chance, do you wish to end your relationship with me?” Ayaka quietly asks you, her blue eyes downcast.

You’re quick to shake your head and hold her in your arms, explaining that you said that to protect her reputation from prying eyes, in case she wasn’t comfortable enough yet to let other people know you two were dating.

Ayaka hugs you back so tightly and says that she appreciates the effort but she loves you, and that’s not going to change anytime soon. She very much would like to let the whole world know how much she cherishes you <3

“You already know her right? She’s my best friend, Kuki Shinobu.”

What.

Shinobu stares at you for a solid second, eyes narrowed in confusion before she turns to the other person and nods politely, choosing to avoid a direct confrontation if she can help it.

But the second the other person is gone, Shinobu turns to you, arms crossed over her chest.

“What was that?”

“What was what?” You innocently ask.

“Best friend?” She repeats your words, a slightly annoyed tone in her voice. “I hadn’t realized I’d been demoted.”

Shinobu is a confident person, she doesn’t doubt for a second that you still love her. She trusts you enough to know that if your feelings for her ever changed, she would be the first person you’d tell.

And as for her, Shinobu is just as communicative with her emotions. You’re always the first person she goes to when she has a situation to resolve. Of course, she can take care of things by herself, but she trusts your judgment and, most of all, she likes the feeling of having someone trustworthy to rely on. She cherishes that about you, and she feels safe and secure in your love.

That doesn’t mean she won’t revoke your cuddling privileges for a week straight for this prank. Shinobu loves you, but she doesn’t enjoy being teased, and you’ll have to learn that the hard way.

“Yes, she really is the captain of the Crux! Beidou, my best friend.”

Beidou is momentarily taken aback by your words. Best friend, you say? You weren’t saying that last night at the Alcor, when you were with her in her chamber.

She’s quick to draw a sly smile, taking one step towards the other person.

“Best friend and lover! I get to ride this,” she says, slapping your butt loudly, “every other night. Aren’t I lucky? Hahaha.”

She bursts out laughing, your friend goes completely red in the face, and you’re utterly mortified. You will definitely measure your words in the future, pranking Beidou seems to backfire for you more often than not.

Beidou is a confident person, she’s lived long enough to learn to not be easily swayed by words. When it comes to you though, it’s true that she has a soft spot, but that doesn’t mean she’s going to let you make a fool of her wherever you please. After all, you’re her dearest lover, who puts up with all her quarrels and quirks. Surely you won’t be mad at her for this <3

“I don’t believe you’ve met my best friend Ganyu before, right?”

Congratulations, you’ve officially broken the fluff ball.

Ganyu’s eyes widen at the statement, but she doesn’t turn to you. She immediately lowers her gaze, now glued to the ground as the other person introduces themselves to her too. She’s as polite as she can manage while the gears in her brain start speeding up, her heart also picking up the pace.

Best friend…? Ganyu holds the edge of her dress between her fingers, fidgets with it while you cheerfully chat with your friend. Are we not lovers? Did I… misinterpret the situation?

Ganyu is very confident in her work ethic and capabilities. However, due to her adeptus upbringing and the clear differences between her and the regular mortals, she is far from confident when it comes to social interactions. And despite all the centuries she’s roamed this world, Ganyu is still quite inexperienced when it comes to matters of the heart.

You don’t find it troublesome taking things slow with Ganyu, letting her set the pace in your relationship as she slowly explores her feelings towards you, not one bit. And she’s endlessly grateful for the feeling of comfort you give her, how you’re always attentive and endlessly kind when talking to her, when you spend your lunch times together, when you accompany her on her naps, or you treat her to a meal in her favorite restaurant; how you hold her face in your hands and press your lips to hers in a sweet kiss every morning.

So then… Why did you call her your best friend?

The moment your friend is gone, Ganyu grabs your sleeve, preventing you from walking. You turn to her, about to ask her if everything’s okay.

“Did I do something wrong?” She quietly asks. “You can be honest, I… I can take it.”

You’re quick to reassure her that no, absolutely no, she’s perfect and you were just saying that in case Ganyu wasn’t comfortable with other people knowing about the two of you.

Ganyu is reassured but it’ll take more than an apology to get your words out of her mind, so please treat her kindly and give her lots of kisses for the rest of the night!

“Meet my best friend, the Director of the Funeral Parlor, Hu Tao!”

Hu Tao doesn’t miss a beat when she steps forward, reaching out to grab your friend’s hand with a big smile plastered on her face.

“Best friend and best girlfriend Hu Tao, at your service!” She cheerfully exclaims. “Say, have you found yourself lately in need of a coffin but thought to yourself, Crikey, these things are way too expensive! Well, my new friend, bear it no longer! Cause I happen to have just the thing you ne— Hey!”

You drag Hu Tao by the collar of her coat, waving at your friend with the other hand.

“It was great seeing you! I’m sorry, I just remembered there’s somewhere we need to be!”

“What was that for? I could’ve landed a good deal if you’d let me.” Hu Tao crosses her arms above her chest when you let go of her. “Besides, what even was that? I know I’m your best friend, but you should introduce me as your lover, silly!”

“I don’t want people to think we’re that close.” You cross your arms on your chest, suppressing a playful smile.

Hu Tao’s quick to catch on your joke, and she’s even quicker to wrap her arms around your neck, giggling easily.

“But we are that close, hee-hee!” She says, pressing her lips to your cheek time and time again, leaving butterfly kisses on your skin. “There’s no escaping this now~”

“Her name’s Shenhe, she’s my best friend and an adepti disciple. Super cool, right?”

Shenhe immediately turns to you, a deadpan look on her face.

“Am I not your lover?”

“Well— Yes, you are.” You draw a nervous smile, your friend staring.

“I don’t understand. I thought you mentioned that our relationship is one of lovers.” Shenhe insists. “Do best friends also kiss and have se—“

“Shenhe—!”

“I see you two are busy, I won’t bother you for longer. It was great running into you!”

Your friend excuses themselves and leaves. You turn to Shenhe, your cheeks burning. She stares at you, registering your expression.

“Just to be clear. Are we still lovers?” She says, her winter eyes searching in yours for clarification.

Having grown up on the mountains, raised by the adeptus and bearing the binding red ropes that restrict the range of human emotions she’s allowed to experience, it’s safe to say that Shenhe’s not familiar with emotions, much less with the terminology for them. It’s just so many things to remember, so many cues and newfound sensations. Shenhe relies on you to guide her through them, to support her while she explores her own emotions, and you love every bit of the experience with her.

“Yes. Yes, we are.” You sigh and draw a smile, gently pushing some locks of hair behind her ear. Shenhe relishes in your touch. “You are my lover and my best friend. I love you.”

Can I please have a headcanon for keqing, beidou, jean and zhongli with a tomboy fem S/O with short hair and wears vintage suits, newsboy hats, wingtip shoes and sometimes steals the characters clothes but she still wears lipgloss,lipbalm and lipstick? Please tell me if that is to much

— ⚡️ THEM WITH A TOMBOY S/O - WHOS STILL IN TOUCH WITH THEIR FEMININE SIDE

includes — zhongli, keqing, beidou, jean

warnings — n/a

pronouns — she/her

ZHONGLI

i feel like the community has already established a common headcanon that zhongli really doesn’t care for looks — he’s literally all for personality

so if his s/o dressed more on the masculine side, he wouldn’t mind nor would he really bat an eye at all

however, if you happened to wear the vibrant red shade on your lips, he wouldn’t hesitate to start a conversation about it

zhongli finds the contrast between your overall style, and the pop of colour on your face to be beautifully different — it’s not often in liyue you see such style paired with it, so he’s taken aback by it (in a positive way)

KEQING

somewhat similar to zhongli, she’s indifferent to it most of the time — if that’s what makes you comfortable, then so be it

however i can tell you with full confidence — keqing would simp as soon as she saw the bright colour that painted your lips

i’m talking eyes widening, jaw dropping, heart skipping a beat, and mind going blank — she’s the type to fawn and swoon over the contrast of the two things

overal keqing is a simp for you (respectfully and modestly ofc) and she’s super in tune with your comfort levels

BEIDOU

cheerleader, number one fan, literally crying in tears from beside you as you just stand there being... well... you

beidou is hard to impress when it comes to anything other then you — if you so much as wear slacks, a button down, or a hat, and top it off with a bright coloured chap or lipstick

yeah beidou will overload in love — she’s the type of girlfriend to constantly hype you up and just flirt so much with you, so expect non stop compliments and endless amounts of physical contact

she absolutely lives for the energy the two of you create as well — with her badass mom/pirate vibe and your masculine yet feminine (who could still kick your ass) she believes that the two of you could rule the world

JEAN

another one in the club that doesn’t really care for looks/style — as long as it’s “modest” in the eyes of the knights, then she’s okay with it

now jean strikes me as the type to get really quiet when she first sees you wearing the contrasting things — not in i’ll taste however, but she just doesn’t know how to even respond to seeing you like that

(she’s blown away to say the least)

not only does she want to know how you pull it off so flawlessly, but she also wants to just capture this moment (and everyone moving forward) and keep it still in time forever

jean is a simp — i said it and i will stand by it until i die

she’d definitely show you off without actually shoving you in peoples faces — it’s more like a “y/n looked lovely today, didn’t she!”
