Curate, connect, and discover
Let's pretend I didn't die for like a year JDKSJDJ
let's dive back in!!
------
The group is back and still fucking insane. /pos
they found insane in events, try to one up each other with minigames, the usual
+a new friend who joins in sometimes to either just watch or join in the fun!
Let's give some love to (some of) the characters I haven't written abt, shall we?
Alhaitham
Diluc has a new person to suffer with
"He could park that big Mac truck right in this li-" "shut"
Diluc and Alhaitham would be used a lot in the same team!
Diluc, watching them simp over Alhaitham: first time?
Tighnari & Cyno
They fucking adore these mfs ngl
Because at least 2 of them could fit Cyno or Tighnari interchangeablely
"Where do bees keep their documents?" "... Bees don't have docume-" "In the arc-hives" "SHUT U-"
Cyno would love learning new jokes and explaining them to Tighnari
And Tighnari would be fond of everyone's sass
Goofy little guys for sure
Wanderer
"REDEMPTION ARC FR!!"
Very happy he's finally playable, but one character is a bit salty they couldn't have his og design be at least optional
They would have so much fun goofing around with his skill and he would be amused asf
"It's over, Romeo! I have the high ground!!" "GET UR ASS DOWN HERE WE HAVE A FLOWER TO FIGHT"
Dehya
"Mommy? Sorry- mommy? Sorry-"
At least one of them whaled for her
"was it even worth it-" "FUCK YOU SHE'S BEAUTIFUL!!"
Taking Dehya to the desert to get her ascension materials <33
She'd probably worry if they don't care for themselves enough, maybe do less or more dmg to encourage those guys to take a break?
Extras!!
Using Wanderer, Keqing, Zhongli, and Venti to visit higher areas
During Childe boss fight, they move the fight to where all the mora is and Childe is very confused
New skins... But no money......
Full archon team!! The archon appreciate the extra time to talk amongst themselves
New bosses, new chaos
"GOD DAMN IT WHY DIDN'T ANYONE PICK A HYDRO CHAR" "we don't have any good ones!" "and you decide to use PYRO AGAINST PYRO?!"
Scaramouche boss fight is fun
"How dare you? Have you no dignity?" "We don't do shit with dignity!"
"Do you.. Wanna rephrase tha-" "I know what I said >:("
more soon!
Warnings: swearing
aye liyue time
Characters: Zhongli, Xingqui, Hu Tao, Chongyun
• ================================== •
short answer: old man 🫵
as usual, he always has the best stories
like audible who??
don’t bring him to any stores tho
you will lose so much money
as for some wholesome prompts, he’d maybe go volunteer at a library after learning basic stuff
you wont see him for a while once u get him a library card
“jesus christ zhongli where tf have you been” “Apologies, dear. I was simply at the library.” “FOR 2 DAYS???”
imagine you walk in and find him reading to all the kiddos wAAA
best old man 👌 95/10 would roll again
-5 points due to high money consumption :’)
same as zhongli, but he’s got his own wallet thank you very much
will probably trick Chongyun with the Chinese finger trap
or that one trick where you make someone put their hands flat on the table, put a cup of water on each, and then leave
“Chongyun, you good?” “*softly shaking his hands and on the verge of sobbing* n o”
if it was a situation where it would take a while for them to get home, Xingqui would probs work at the library for a short while
he’d be absolutely amazed by all the stories that are accessible nowadays
on that note
AO3.
keep him away from it for his own sake.
she can and will send someone a glitter bomb oh my gOD
keep her away from any prank related channels
otherwise, she’d be surprised at how a lot of ppl have her humor
“does it count as drinking alone if you’re pregnant?” “I mean, it will be if you keep drinking” “.. jesus christ”
meanwhile hu tao in the bg 🧍♀️
also mY GIRL WOULD THRIVE DURING HALLOWEEN
I’ve never seen any mentions of a halloween themed event it genshin, so lets assume they just dont celebrate it
bestie would be running around so much
looking at all the spooky stuff
she’s probably going to try bringing some halloween traditions into teyvat ngl
Oh my sweet baby boy
he would be the target of so many pranks
also ALL THE ICE POPS FOR HIM
if you play horror games with ghosts in them, he’d sit next to you and watch lol
maybe take some notes on different ghosts? just because
you all take turns making sure he doesn’t overwork himself
“Ah, my grace! How may I-” “Chongyun it’s 2:17 am.” “lets just tie him onto the bed actually 🧍” “I second that”
pat pat
• ================================== •
Warning: swear words, two trucks by lemon demon is mentioned
Reverse isekai time yall!!!!
Characters: Fischl, Bennett, Noelle
• ================================== •
to be honest, you’re a lot less surprised than you were expecting
‘characters from your favorite franchise pop out of the game/show/movie and into the real world, hijinks ensue’…
.. you feel like you’ve read this before
your friends? unsurprisingly not as chill as you
“SOMEONE SLAP ME I MUST BE DREAMING” “gladly—” “____ don’t.”
depending on who’s the most into roleplay or dnd, they’d be the closest to Fischl
ya’ll this girl would absolutely love larping and cosplay
I imagine she’d first find out about it when you and your friends get ready for a cosplay and dnd convention (which I plan on writing properly)
“Oh great creators, I request thou may give thy Prinzessin more of this bubble te- Uhm.. am I interrupting something?”
they’d, of course, bring her along and tell her alllll about it
and lemme tell you, first day of the con, she’s already hooked
and within days, lo and behold! she becomes a regular cosplayer and the resident tumblr girl
you might wanna save up a bit more for tickets
right off the bat, you hear a plate break in the kitchen
most of you rush to see what happened
aaand Bennett is frantically trying to sweep all of it out of the way while apologizing
ofc, you can’t be m a d at him
so u just help him bring the bowls to Noelle so she can make her pancakes :D
he’d be a bit bummed out bcuz of the lack of adventuring areas
I imagine he’d like korean bbq tho
whether you decide you all go out to eat, or you decide to make the food at home, he’d absolutely love how easy it was to cook it himself!
even with a few burns here or there, he’d still rate it at least 8/10
don’t give him any soy sauces with chilis tho
his absolute favorite thing though? online rpgs ofc
adventuring entirely other worlds??? without any hurt????? sign this precious boy up!
all in moderation ofc, he still loves exploring irl
I imagine he’d think of it as a break from the hurt
he always runs out of stamina tho :(
SWEET BABY NOELLE—
she would try to do everything for you
laundry, cooking, cleaning, you name it
“as a token of gratitude for letting them stay” she’d say
she’d be amazed by the washing machine, lets be honest (aren’t we all to an extent??)
I feel like she’d always cook breakfast and some snacks, but that’s about it
anything else and she’d give ya’ll food poisoning /lh
but like, make sure to let her rest every once in a while, y’know?
bby needs her R&R
• ================================== •
@simpagettits (sadly it wouldnt load ur user 😔) @shizunxie
fuck it “SAGAU: 4 More or Less” sounds good enough
what should I name the sagau where reader has a chaotic ass friendgroup
the contestants are “SAGAU: 4 More or Less” “SAGAU: The more the merrier!” “SAGAU: Benny’s Adventure Team”
u can also suggest some bcuz mine are m e h

Warnings: a lot of swearing
I had fun writing the last one and ya’ll seemed to like it so part 2 baby lets gooooo
take a shot every time you see the word “imagine” “they’d” and “also”
• ================================== •
the moment the gang finally realizes the game was self aware was during a usual saturday session, music and all that
they were talking abt random stuff when suddenly
“Where is that music coming from??”
the group stops talking for a second like ???
“.. haha veeery funny ____, I can recognize your venti impression from a mile away” “ I’m pretty sure ____ said they were getting a sandwich like 2 mins ago” “a”
after a bit of freaking tf out they decided to try and talk with the characters
unfortunately (or fortunately), this doesn’t stop a couple of them from simping
like after every sentence that comes out of zhongli’s mouth, that one mf would always be like “hehe free asmr go brrrrr”
this also means a lot more annoying Childe
“ *sonic voice* UR TOO SLOWWWWW” “hehe zhongli ult go ☄️” “yall go behind childe during the whale atk, his blind ass can’t hit us from there”
needless to say, Childe would be giving a teensy bit more dmg compared to their first fight with the traveler
I imagine it’d be nice to have a bit more interaction with their faves other than the voice lines :’)
speaking of, they’d also have group wishing sessions where they gather all their primos and wish together so they can somehow combine their luck
“WOOO AYAKAAAAAA MY BABYYYYYYYY” “FUCK i got another diona >:( ” “have you tried getting good”
ayato and ayaka getting all the hugs I can tell you that much
some characters like Thoma would be confused why they would be so excited to see him
“FUCK YEA MY BBY THOMA CAME HOMEEE” “oh COME ON. c6 diona >:( ” “L” “____ I will find you and turn you into a fish”
I imagine they’ll also try to teach the chars about their devices, but they’re very bad at explaining
“Where’s that music coming from? I don’t see anyone around??” “oh! it’s pre-recorded music. so we can listen to it whenever” stuff like that
and oh archons don’t get me started on meme and vine references
“it is so bad, i want to give you a zero. but that’s not possible. so i give you, a one.” “SHUSH i didnt realize we were fighting the pyro flower” “BUT YOU HAD THE BALLS TO CHOOSE AMBER??” “TO BE FAIR I ONLY HEARD THAT WE WERE FIGHTING A FLOWER”
And at the end of each session, they’ll likely spend their time in the teapot to chill
• ================================== •
should I make a part 3 for just the character interaction?
Warning: swear words, two trucks by lemon demon is mentioned
this is just me dipping my toes into this sort of thing lol. I just wanted to get some thoughts out and I thought some of them were entertaining enough to be put out there.
• ================================== •
like imagine it’s mostly a normal sagau but after a while they get like 4 gods/goddesses
the characters would probably be able to see their player via a screen, only for them to suddenly be talking to 3 other voices without anyone being in the room w them??
Chongyun or Hu Tao would probably think there’s ghosts in their apartment
eventually they grasp the concept of discord calls
the group would probs help each other out with commissions, but more often than not would rather fuck around and fight different bosses
the characters would be terrified of the constant deaths, but since I don’t like angst, it would be lightened a bit due to how fucking chaotic the friendgroup would be
oceanid would be when they’re the loudest
“lol imagine dying to a crab” “OH IM SORRY MISTER/MISS ‘LEAVE IT TO ME’, NOT EVERYONE HAS A LVL 87 NOELLE JUST SITTING IN THEIR CHARACTER ARCHIVE” “NOELLE IS BEST GIRL AND YOU KNOW IT”
As for the characters, it depends on what’s happening/who’s on the team (ima be focusing on like my most recent chars)
Bennet, Fischl, and the other kids would most likely learn gen z slang from them
“I, Fischl, Prinzessin der Verurteilung, descend upo— Oh, traveler, it’s been a minute.”
then they all turn around like ???
Zhongli would be confused but will try to use the slang occasionally (much to the players’ dismay)
“If you'd like to see Liyue's tourist spots, I have a few references that ‘hit different’.”
meanwhile the players are just sobbing in the corner like ??????????????
alternatively, there would be times where the players would just,,,, walk around
maybe just chill in a random area with music in the bg and talk
I’d like to think they’d take turns playing music, and their music tastes would vary to an insane degree
So all of teyvat would be vibing to The Oh Hellos and then all of a sudden Two Trucks is playing
“wait what song is thi—” “TWO TRUCKS HAVING S-” “NOT THIS AGAIN” “LMAOSIDJSKKD”
Overall, they’d just be some chaotic peeps doing stupid shit together and beating up childe for fun <33
• ================================== •
why has no one told me about self aware genshin tumblr /pos
Apologies for the wrong lore or information. I don't play it, and I write it based on memories.
In which you, the player, are heavily associated with Celestia (friends? boss and secretary? etc.). You and the (bunch of gods in) Celestia have looked over this world forever. You are close, and you would bicker with them once in a while, but there are ranks between you and them.
With that being said, you know with certainty that Celestia has done many unforgivable things. No, you may be a part of them, but you refused to be one of them.
What you have seen in the game is worse, but not as bad as what Celestia came up with. Why doesn't it show? Well, that's because you interfere and reason with Celestia to tone down their ruthlessness.
Celestia is like the embodiment of a childish king who took the throne and thinks they can do anything, and you are like the minister who's trying to make the situation less worse.
The day you became a very responsible person is when the Archon war began. It was at this point where you realized you questioned why did you became friends with them.
For safety's sake and to improve the Celestia image (you failed this part hard), you didn't use any names but preferred to be seen and called as Celestia, as disgusting as it is.
When Khaenriah did something that absolutely got on Celestia's nerve, they began to plan the most horrible plan of all. That plan was to wipe out everything and restart. A failure, they said, and you, as the most reasonable of all, decided to smack some brain cells into them.
And thus, Khaenriah got destroyed, and the people turned into monsters and so on. Some few gods also lost their lives, and other troubling things began to pop up. But hey, you prevented the destruction of the entire world, and that's something.
The Electro Archon and her sibling would cease to exist, but you tweak the string of fate, and only one of them died. Sure, the nation will be a bit tense in the future because of the newly made Archon, but don't worry, you've got a plan for this, but that's for later.
The Geo Archon also lost someone just as planned otherwise. If both survived, something even more horrible would greet them if they stayed there, and you need certain people in certain areas to keep the plan in motion, so the God of Dust has to go.
Venti wasn't supposed to be an Anemo Archon, but he did because you planned it! if the rebels, the God of Storm and the God of North Wind keep doing that, everyone will be fcked. Game over. You placed the pieces carefully, and that's how Venti's background came to be.
Dendro Archon sacrificed herself to save her people from the forbidden knowledge that is spreading and same goes for her friends. This is the acceptable route because, in the beginning, Celestia wanted them to be straight up deceased with no disease. But you are very good at negotiating, and this is how it came to be.
For creating a new species of human, the Hydro Archon were prisoned, assumed control again and then died. She get replaced but that doesn't mean the new species of human would get spared from the sin. Celestia is just that sadistic and cruel. You were a bit late to the game, but you got a plan! You knew how to avert killing thousands of people. Unfortunately, at the cost of a certain new Archon's life. Again. Damn.
You have done so many things, all for the greater good. Celestia is despicable for wanting to destroy everything, but no doubt you are more despicable after all; you planned every tragedy just so Celestia don't act on their whim.
You could have stopped Celestia, but you are the smart one. You deduced that if you continue to disobey and disregard their orders and opinions, Celestia would have ditched you and destroyed everything. You love this world enough you couldn't bear to see it get destroyed.
Obviously, no one knows this. No one knows you planned the most intricate plan with the most complicated results, but when they do, it's mostly half true. No doubt that some had assumed you are the cause of the tragedy, which isn't wrong, but compared to the original order by Celestia, this is by far, less tragic.
What you failed to see is that the unknown god has dragged a certain pair of twins into this mess, and now you have to think even harder and smarter on how they are going to affect Teyvat and the future to come.
This is your previous life. Your recent life was a normal person and had a hobby for gaming. Your new life started when you woke up in Genshin Impact.
The new you doesn't know the past you, but you know the story unfolding before your eyes when you played the game as the traveler.
How does the story go when you begin your journey?
-
I know things don't line up, but then again, it's just an idea, and I'm tired.
Decide to make part 2 because i have bunch of ideas that probably might inspire you and i do feel these kind of stuffs need to be explored more. Fyi, I don't play genshin but i do know some from watching people gaming. Apologizing once more of these kind of idea/au exist as well.
Decide to make part 2 because i have so many ideas.
1) A violent and heartless player
You play Genshin Impact to pass time and are also a very violent and aggressive player where you'll always yell and throw items to vent or throw insults under your breath, and then back to gaming. In short, It's like a Call of Duty toxic player went into Genshin Impact.
Falling to death or drowning angered you to the point of banging your head and cursing. Not to mention, walking in the game angered you too because the characters were too slow!
You suck at first; impulsive action is not the best choice when you're angry, but you are in some way adaptable. You decide that your anger will be the source of your motivation to go through everything, so everything works out in the end.
Insulting is your mother tongue, so that means the characters and even the NPC are not spared as well. Most of your vicious, colorful insults and hurtful comments went toward people whom you hated and annoyed the most.
You remember the time when you laughed at Timmie's dumb dead birds and wished you had an option to push him off the bridge. His dad probably sensed he was a little b*tch back when he was a baby and went out to get some milk and never come back.
You sometimes intentionally let them die in a fight or or do something all in the name of experiment. You would even build a prison for them in the serenitea pot and just do the f*cked-up stuff that's possible in this game.
So one day, you broke your gaming setup due to your outburst, and somehow you woke up in Teyvat.
You didn't believe it was reality, and you still treated them as characters. Besides, they looked stupid with those stupid clothes on. They would stood out like a sore dumba$$ if they walked around in your world like that.
Anyway, killing Hilichurl or other small enemies is no problem for you. Committing a crime doesn't bother you. You probably don't bat an eye on killing people as well. Besides, all of this is just a game to you.
They're not real to you.
Their death is their fault for picking a fight with you. Should have just looked away instead of approaching you. Not your fault their feelings hurt.
Archons wanted to smite you, and somehow you managed to escape them and deal a few harmless blows. Not that it matters; you will be the one to seek them out and fight them when their backs are on you, and the cycle will repeat.
How you're still alive using a measly weapon because you don't know how to use claymore, polearms, and etc. is beyond you. But hey, anything is a weapon as long as it deals damage and even if it don't, you are still satisfied from letting all your anger out.
Nevertheless, all of the nations are in turmoil, and the culprit is none other than you.
The characters will definitely hate you, or maybe they feel ashamed and insecure about themselves because they want to fix themselves. Some acolytes and the people who believe in justice and peace had 'kill on sight' pinned on your back. They don't even believe that you are a god. God don't act like this.
The Wanderer 4th betrayal definitely happened, and Dottore clones definitely got hunted for sport because they annoyed you Does the Fatui wants to recruit you? You don't know, depends. Do they believe you are the god they worshipped? Also, don't know. Not like you care though.
No one can wreck havoc and commit more sins than you. You, a single person, broke Teyvat's peace and order effortlessly than the fatui with just impulsive anger and chaotic energy.
And if one day you realize that you actually have blood on your hands, you'll probably shrug it off and say it doesn't matter.
If you go back to your own world, no one knows what you have done. Who's going to tell the police? The dead people you stabbed out of annoyance? Those fiction characters that had animosity toward you?
No, will there even be someone alive in Teyvat if you were to return?
2) Streamer and gamer player.
In which you are transported into Teyvat along with some game skills, menus, and anything relevant to a game. That includes the chat box.
You learned that you were still streaming when you got sent to Teyvat, and everyone in the chat can see you. Cool, so it's not a dream; it's real, and instead of playing, you are the player! Where's Aether/Lumine? Why are you here? "AIYO!?? We got to see DAT CAKE!"
You are not aware that you looked like an idiot talking to yourself unless pointed out by the chat. It seems that the chat sees you as part of the game, which means that they can see the characters and NPC thoughts and words while you see them as a normal person.
Cool. Now you have to have the chat got your back, or else you're doomed. Dead. Unable to be revived. You're not sure if you can do that, but you're not willing to try.
Another problem that arises is that the chat tends to troll you or bombard you with loud sounds. It makes it harder to trust them or focus on what the characters are saying when they did this.
Sometimes you beg the chat, like they are some sort of sadistic god looking down at you from above the clouds with their chins high and a sneer.
All because you want some goddamn money because apparently, if they donate money, it instantly becomes moras and you're broke as fuck like cmon, help a fricking clown out.
Strangely, despite everything looked real, you have the physics of a game. The things you find in the game work if you try hard enough. For example, glitching under the Mondstadt's land. With these kinds of things, you don't need to walk when you can just glitch and get sent flying across the nation. Just making use of this bug makes your life easier.
Oh, how did you get stuck on this cliff while you were trying to use another entrance to Sumeru? That's right, it's an experiment to see if it works.
"Don't laugh, chat; I'm doing this out of curiosity and for you. Youre the one whos suggesting this."
The characters in Teyvat thought you were a rather peculiar person, talking to yourself at random times, and you seemed to know too much even though you didn't do any research, merely fighting hilichurls and robbing back the bandits–
–Oh Great Archons! You can fly!? No? It's a glitch? Well, they don't understand enough to understand you, but hey, that's so you. Keep up being weird, player.
Maybe the things you do are… unique and can be considered divine in their eyes. After all, who could walk on air like you do? Or bringing people back to life and knowing so much? No one could do that, so you must be a god!
As a matter of fact, you remind them of a certain figure. That's right! The creator! The creator acted like you too. Always talking to this thing called "chat"
"Um, no, I'm a gamer and chat is chat."
You fail to take into consideration that while everything looks like a game in your eyes, the people are definitely real, and this is what they thought of you.
3) Killer player
You don't play Genshin Impact, but you are quite resourceful, cunning, and deviously smart. You know this game is quite famous, and coincidentally, the prey you aimed to take life is playing it too.
In order to get closer to your prey, you must be fluent in their language. You listened to all that your prey blabbered and what they showed with an interested smile. You even question them once in a while to get them going all for the sake of learning the prey's personality and schedule and how you want to unalive them.
When you did kill your prey and accidentally broke their computer/laptop in the process, you got transported to Teyvat. In a way, you had stolen your prey's fate instead.
(The characters had mistaken you for their creator before but dismissed it because you lacked a certain presence. However, you do feel familiar with them because you sometimes watch over the game when your prey has played before.)
Now, you heard interesting things about this game, and you grew more interested when the characters interacted with you. How amusing! The characters had no idea you were a very sinister and cunning person behind a weak and polite persona.
In terms of healthcare, they are leaning toward supernatural stuff, and the medicine using materials found in this world is also effective. However, they seem to be lacking in a certain area that needs surgery.
Most deaths were common due to hilichurls and bandits, or those whom they called the Fatui, so they wouldn't be examined too closely. You doubt that they even have something that closely resembles fingerprint identification, judging by the lack of technology..m
…Which means hiding and killing is much easier than in your previous world.
Teyvat is such a nice place to have entertainment. It didn't take too long for you to settle here and get comfortable.
Monstadt is a city known for freedom and peace; however, once you arrive here, every night, no doubt a single person will go missing or be found dead. You are normally a silent killer, but you couldn't resist letting them know. Their expression thrilled you.
All those knight roaming around at night, and they couldn't even save a single person. What a pity.
In Liyue, the funeral parlor became rich all thanks to these crimes you were committing. Does a certain acolyte know what you're doing? Maybe not, afterall, there are more ways to kill a person than just a sword and poison.
Accidents could happen, you know? falling off a cliff, in the wrong place at the wrong time, being mauled by animals where people conveniently are not near, or dealing with the wrong person.
Inazuma is much more easier; their deaths could be pinned on one person who is also the source of the nation's tense atmosphere. Hatred, anger and fear rose with each crime you committed, but there is no evidence that you did it. After all, what could a weak and polite person who looked like they couldn't wield a sword do?
Plenty actually. Not that they know.
Sumeru is quite nice. Full of gifted scholars and intelligent individuals. You thought it will be a challenge seeing as you have similar minds and yet, most disappointed you.
All these smart people, and they couldn't string the murder together. Maybe you don't kill the right one which mean the don't care. Oh? Then should you kill the one with that grey hair? He seems to be someone of importance.
You made Akademiya your target. You must admit that you learned quite a lot of precious knowledge in this place. While youre here, might as well pretend to be one and use this time to gather infos.
They did not know and realized how you got into the Akademiya or how you had disguised yourself as one of the scholars. They don't know how you got through security or how one by one are slowly not attending the class or the expedition.
They said that acting confidently like you belong there and becoming part of the background like a plain NPC is always the key to infiltration.
And oh, even if they get suspicious and point that out to you, you know what to do. Lying, speaking half the truth, and gaslighting are also languages you are quite good at.
And Fontaine, oh, Fontaine. A nation that is known for justice when, in fact, it's not always about justice but entertainment. It is a nation that indirectly challenge you as well. Entertainment? Why, you know what kind of entertainment you shall give! It will be something that everyone remembers for the rest of their life.
You are like Jack the Ripper, never caught and never punished. Did the Archons ever suspect you? Who knows. Maybe they did, maybe they didn't.
All you know is that you have an alibi to back you up and a likeable and underestimated personality.
This is my first time posting something on tumblr but I just wanna say that I'm getting tired of seeing the imposter! sagau au where the player/creator is so forgiving once they were declared innocent and not the imposter or something like that.
The eldritch one was good but kinda expecting to go to the dark territory. The yandere one is kinda okay but need more spicy with the creator personality. The one with letter is wholesome in a way but I'm a picky person and the player's personality is just not to my taste.
So uh, I'm just gonna drop some ideas to spice some new inspiration or something. Apologize if these aus/ideas already exist.
Indifferent god/player
You play the game to pass time, you don't even bother speaking, only staying silent the whole duration and maybe murmuring some dissapointing things on the characters when they don't reach your expectation. The characters designs are nice and maybe the personality but you don't give a damn about them. You probably don't read their story or voiceline or something. But anyway, whether they have sobs story or not, you already have enough and don't care as well.
Almost everything bore you and the only thing that keep you going is the curiousity for the ending so you tried to level up and give them the best artifacts so you can speed run or something.
Once you are inside the game, the first thing you do is sigh loudly.
You dont know who the hell is the creator they speak of that finally arrived in Teyvat cause your day is ruined from being approached by the characters who won't leave you alone. (You got that divine presence and distant looks in your eyes that made them tremble with realisation when in fact you're just annoyed with them, never giving them a single glance. "out of sight, out of mind")
You are the Watcher of Teyvat, the God of all Gods and you are finally descending to Teyvat which you create "lovingly" with your bare hands. (Not that you know about that)
Now the characters feeling towarda you can be varies. The characters may be feeling grateful because you helped them getting stronger which may lead to stronger devotion.
Your hurtful comments back in your previous world sometimes drove them insane which may lead them feeling desperate and insecure, ashamed and upset as well as letting their self confidence dwindled. Sometimes they questioned themselves why aren't they abandoned yet and why are they gifted with powerful artifacts instead? So lots misunderstandings here.
The Archons probably go crazy trying to figure out how to please you. Wanting to be by your side and show you how Teyvat came to be under their rule and after that. Use them however you wish, the rules of Teyvat bend to your will and all will act according to you. Maybe that's why their gnoses is in the form of chess pieces? For you to play and use with?
The Fatui harbingers probably have complicated feelings about you. But most probably are upset that you don't give a damn about them or glad that what they are doing doesn't offended you in the slightest and encouraging what they are doing because they thought you have no problem with what they are doing.
Can go yandere route I guess but none what the characters did will ever entered your eyes because you don't give a f*ck about them. Period. No feelings or heart to heart talk.
2) Introvert simping god/player
You are a Genshin Impact lover. You buy every merchandise possible and owned so many of their cosplay. You are probably the top 5 best genshin gamer and made some theories judging by what the game had shown you. No characters can escape your gushing as praises bullet out of your mouth. Nothing in the game could escape you cause you love them so much.
Unfortunately, as much as you love them from the roots of their hair to their fine shoes and the blackest and goodest of hearts, you don't want to be in their world.
Because you are an introvert and a simp! These combinations can't be good if you are to meet one of them!
The solution? Hide.
Needless to say, your ability to become one with the background unintentionally shut off your heavenly divine presence. You became the world's best hider, no Fatui could ever catch a glimpse of your shadow nor an Adeptus nor Archons. Always a game of mouse and cats yet theres no progress in catching the skittish mouse.
You refuse to meet them and can only look from a far. Staring with awe when they fought or walk or talk or whatever they do. It's like seeing an idol in a way.
In short, you're a stalker.
When they learn about how you look like, every place is not safe anymore. Everyone is looking for you, eager to meet you. But not you. By the power of cosplay, it's easy to avert meeting them.
And now, you are not the only world's best hider but the world's best at disguising themself as well.
3) Eldritch god/player
What if Teyvat is only one and the players is many? When you descend to Teyvat, some said you are tall, some said you are short and others said you are a male and another the opposite sex. They even said your hair was curly and black but the other refuted, saying yours was wavy and blonde.
Introducing you. A god who is all yet one individual. A god whose everything changes from one person to another's respectives. Sometimes the same person see you in a different appearance which confused many.
Your whole being is unpredictable, sometimes you're upset and then happy and then angry, all in the blink of a moment. even your accents changes, following the tongue of the one who is speaking currently.
Sometimes, when the feeling is getting intense, mostly anger, the face(s) morph into something horrible as if it couldn't decide which face(s) to take (or was it these players are feeling the same thing at once?) or what language to speak, resulting in gibberish words falling out your many mouth(s). Your eyes however are staring at the cause of your feelings, (enemy? the one that hurts you? experiment purpose?) All varieties of colours ranging from hazelnut to black.
The Archons are regal and full of divine aura, beautiful and something worthy to behold and worship.
But you are a different existence, leaning toward the dark and gory side than the Archons or the whole Teyvat.
But you are still a god, the God of all Gods.
Are you worthy to be loved and worshipped and to be behold?
Yes? No?
You're not you and you're also not them. Yet you are you and you are them.
Acceptance and violence, you have no problem to choose.
The feelings of the many you(s) are distorted and cannot be comprehend.
Trial By Combat
Requested By: No one. Original Work.
CW: Mentions of dying, Impostor SAGAU
Summary: After being declared an imposter, you decide to duel to defend your honor rather than stand trial.
Note: Fontaine is amazing. I’m loving every bit of it rn especially Neuvillette, Navia, and Chlorinde.
If you haven’t finished the Fontaine Archon quest, please exit stage left.
Part Two Part Three
-
You never even made it to the Court Of Fontaine before you were confronted by Focalors, the Hydro Archon, of being an imposter of the Creator of Teyvat. In her own eccentric way, she throws accusations at you. ‘To take the face of the Creator is not only a crime in Fontaine but in all of Teyvat!’
You deny her claims but she only laughs, ‘you’re acting ignorant, as if you do not know who the Creator is. Do you have any evidence to prove your innocence?’
You look down, there was no evidence you had that would prove to her and everyone else that this was the face you were born with, or that you never heard of this Creator before.
“The trial of the Century” is what the Steambird called it.
The Opera House was as full as ever, many people wanting to see the verdict the Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale would give or wanting to see the one who dared to imitate Their Grace.
Maybe it was out of spite or your own foolishness, but you never allowed the trial to fully begin. Turning to Neuvillette, you declare that you want to duel rather than stand trial.
Despite the protests of Focalors, who wanted to prosecute you, the wish is granted.
The weight of the sword felt unbearable in your clammy hands as you stared at your opponent. Champion Duelist Clorinde stares back nonchalantly, her face not giving any clues on how she felt in this moment. However you heard rumors that she personally requested to duel you.
You readjusted your grip on the hilt as you fix your stance.
Was this truly the correct course of action? To fight and prove your innocence when you know that there’s no way you can win?
No it didn’t matter, you can’t back out now.
The crowd watches eagerly waiting for the duel to begin, how could the people of Fontaine do this? You were a real person and they acted as if you were a character on stage and the play was about to reach it’s final act. The excited looks on their face made your blood boil. If you somehow manage to make it out of this, you would make them pay.
You take one final glance at Furina before the duel commences.
Clorinde wastes no time to strike, using her electro vision, she effortlessly knocks your sword out of your hand and drags her blade down your torso.
Whether her fatal blow was an act of mercy or a warning for anyone else who dared to take the Creators face, the duel was over as soon as it started.
But…
No this couldn’t be right…
Clorinde looks down at her weapon, the golden ichor that dripped onto the floor caused her eyes to widen as she looks at your limp body by her feet.
She immediately drops her weapon as she kneel not caring as the blood began to stain her clothing. Her hands press against your chest to slow the bleeding as she calls out to the crowd.
“We need a doctor!”
A medical team rushes down to your side making haste to attend to your wounds, your vision begins to blur as the mortified looks of Fontaine citizens watch in despair hoping that your life could be saved.
Furina, who sat at the top like always, quickly backs away before anyone could question her. How could she face her people when she was the one who laid these accusations at your feet? How could she face you?
She prays, hoping that an act of mercy could be given to her and her people, how could she call herself an Archon now?
The original publication by the Steambird was quickly scrapped and replaced with “The Creator of Teyvat Falsely Accused of being an Imposter.”
And it didn’t take long for the devastating news to reach the other nations too.
Sorry I had to write a little something for SAGAU Fontaine but now I will return to the requests everyone sent 🏃🏽♀️

Summary: Aether who once hated now loves the creator.
Warning: ⚠️ FIRST TIME WRITING, MIGHT BE BAD ⚠️
Part 3/3
★ Paimon has known Aether for a while now, she knows his story, fear, and concern. As his friend and companion on his journey to find his sister, she tries her best to give him a safe place to confide his problem to her and reassure him.
Despite that, she hasn't seen many of the expression of his other than polite gesture.
She could guess it was because he still learning the Teyvat language and not understanding what they were saying probably hindered him from showing any expression other than some input.
"Hehe..."
Paimon blinked and deadpanned once she turned her head to look at her travel companion.
There is Aether on all his glory having a small smile with redden cheeks as he plays with Windwheel Aster's petal.
His eye glittery and gaze soft as his fingertip trace over the line of the Windwheel Aster's petal.
He has been like that for a while since the fireworks show.
Now, Paimon is not dumb to not realize why her travel companion is like this. Especially when he acts so apparent even the people of Monstadt and the knight of Favonius can pick up.
"Hey, Paimon, not to be rude or anything but is the traveler okay?" Kaeya asked Paimon one day, with that question both of them simultaneously turned to look at Aether standing daze in front of Katheryne who tried to direct Aether's attention to her, "He looks so out of it nowadays."
Paimon sighed, 'It seems Aether has a crush on the creator.' A bitter smile curl on Paimon's lips.
Honestly, Paimom doesn't know what to do or act in the situation. She does have the urge to scold and quickly deflect the crush Aether has on the almighty being that even she worships.
And she knows it's for his own well-being.
But at the same time, seeing such a gaze on Aether's face makes Paimon reluctant.
The creator might be a god that she respects and prays to but Aether is her friend and someone she cherishes. Her heart couldn't take it if she just crushed his dream even before it started.
"Ah," Aether blinked looking at the Windwheel Aster that he picked which he unconsciously turned into a flower crown in his moment of daydream, a sheepish chuckle escaped his mouth. "How silly."
Paimon looked at Aether and bit her bottom lips, nervously.
"Aether," Paimon called out as she flew to his side, a firm look adorned her expression. With that call, Aether turns his head and looks at Paimon, "Hm? What is it?"
"That feeling, you know it's impossible, right?"
That question makes Aether's eyes widen which makes Paimon grips her hand into a fist. "You shouldn't, it's dangerous and sad–You just will get hurt by the end of it."
At the end, Paimon said it.
Just like she wants to protect her friend and companion on his newfound feelings. She also needs to bring him back to reality before it's too late because she is his friend.
Aether's face fell, yet a smile of resignation curled on his lips. "I know, Paimon but let me indulge in such feeling for a bit, can I?" He tilted his head before bringing the flower crown that he created above his head as he looked upon it.
A sweet smile on his face,"Do you think the creator would look pretty with the flower of the her head?"
"Aether..." Paimon uttered worriedly before she smiled in defeat and nodded her head, "The creator would be gorgeous."
Aether grinned at that.
A screaming sound full of fear makes both Paimon and Aether's bodies rigid as goosebumps go through their vein.
Despite that, Aether quickly regained his focus from his shock and unsheathed his dull blade, quickly he rushed toward the sound, as fast as he could.
"Do you think it's a cat?!" Paimon speculates as she follows closely behind Aether.
As they run following the way the scream comes, it becomes closer and clearer to the naked ear.
Aether gave his feet like push before sprinting farther and faster.
Yet, what greets their eye is something both of them didn't expect and their eye widened. For a different reason and conclusion.
"That foreign...clothes and look..." Aether muttered before looking down at the big hole the stranger sat in. "It's like when I fell to the ground from another world before..."
Aether turns to Paimon, "Paimon, do you think the person is an outlander as well–"
"–No." Paimon cut Aether's words off as she looked at the person in a daze and awed, her small hand reaching forward like she trying to hold whoever the person was. "That foreign clothes....hair, eye, and beauty...the person is the Creator."
At that Aether's eyes are wide staring at Paimon before snapping his head back to the stranger.
He takes a side glance at Paimon, watching her hand hovered yet she doesn't attempt to move to the creator. Aether can see the devotion and care toward the creator flash in Paimon's eye but she is scared to get closer or more like feels worthless to do so.
For Aether, this revelation of this stranger's identity doesn't make his gaze any different like Paimon did but he does know his heartbeat because of a different reason.
That's why he doesn't feel scared to approach, doesn't feel scared to step down the hole and kneel in front of the person.
His hand reaches out to the creator, offering to hold their hand while the other gently rubs their shoulder.
Aether's eyes soften yet firm to look dependable but the heat that rushes on his cheeks seems to betray the image he tries to show.
"Don't' cry, shh, are you hurt anywhere?" He asked with a gentle voice akin to a flute, "My name is Aether, an honorary knight and adventurer." He introduced.
....It's a gamble to see if you would understand him or if will he be able to understand you now that you are here. Nonetheless, Aether had longed to hear your voice in front of him.
To interact with you.
As that interaction happened, thousands of people all across Teyvat felt their hearts shaking in uncontrollable happiness.
Some have tears, some have a smile so wide adorned their smile while others look up to the sky with their hand apart.
"T-The creator is here!!"
"The Creator has descend!!""
Uproared happen as the people cry in joy.
"...Creator." Venti's eyes snapped open and sit up from laying himself on the table. Tears fell from his eyes like rain, even when he tried to wipe it yet it continued. "Bless the wind, bless the celestial, bless the Teyvat."
Venti stood up from his seat and ran out of the bar, passing by people crying in joy and happiness to the sky.
Meanwhile, Zhongli is already on his way out from Liyue harbor city accompanied by the rest of Adepti.
There are no tears and wide grins but peace on each of their face.
Like they finally found a home to rest.
"Shall we go and escort the Creator back to our city?" One of them uttered as they moved faster in their respective form.
"The Almighty Shogun has spoken!" Kujou Sara shouted as she pointed her hand out to the gate, "We shall escort and bring the creator back to our homeland!"
"Hail The Almighty Shogun!" The soldier shouted.
"Enough." Raiden Ei held her palm out before speaking up again, "It's no longer me, but, it's the Almighty creator!"
Cheer and roared all around the ground.
From there follow to Sumeru, Fontaine, Natlan and Sneznaya hearing the news.
It's now written the historical day of the creator descending the land and what to become of their day on Tevyat.

Summary: Aether finds solace in the voice, he once hated and now loves.
!Warning!: First Time Writing, might be bad!
Part 2/3
"—Argh...! Stop it, Aether!" you scream in frustration, putting down your phone on the bed with an annoyed face.
it's been a few weeks since you started to play Genshin Impact after being tempted by your schoolmate to download the game. They already told you the gist of what you should know before starting the game itself.
But, they never mention about this game has the main character a self-aware implement into their character.
At first you notice the way Aether's face scrunched up in discomfort after the prologue. It makes you creep out but then you remember that your schoolmate has told you about a few of their self-aware elements, though they just told you about their reaction when you cancel their movements by jumping.
You assumed that your schoolmate probably wants you to experience it by yourself which is nice but a head up would be great too.
"Gacha game? more like a horror game." you snicker as you continue to play on your phone.
As time goes on, Aether's 'behavior' becomes worse. From making a lot of negative responses to you controlling him, now he even tries to defy your control over him by doing the opposite of what you want from him from time to time.
"Aether, you little shit! Stop swimming in a circle and go back to the shore repeatedly!" you shook your phone like crazy, and there was a small smile curled on Aether's face making your anger flame harder.
"T-this game is shit!"
While anger consumes you, you log out from the game.
You sigh leaning back to your gaming chair as you spin around on it before standing up, moving to your door, and walking down the stairs to grab some water.
because of this problem is the reason why you are slowly about to snap and quit this game.
You arrive at the kitchen, open the fridge, grab a small bottle of water, and quickly drink it up.
While doing so, you heard a rapid clicking on a keyboard coming from your sibling's room. A curious look on your face before you slowly walk to their and casually open the door by the knob.
There you see, your sibling screams while her finger moves steadily on the keyboard before slapping her hand on her table in frustration once she loses.
"GODDAMN IT!" Your sibling shouted, it looked like she had died fighting in the Spiral Abyss, no wonder.
"Calm down," you shook your head, walking inside to stand by your sibling. "You will wake Mom up from her sleep at this rate."
They turns to you, "Oh, you, sorry," she slowly calms herself down and sighs.
"This level just gets my shit up to a hundred, who told Hoyoverse that this is fine, all I wanted was the Primogem." They grumbles.
You softly rub her back with a small smile, "It's still many days left until the limited banner is gone, I am sure you will get em."
They put down their headphones, "Talk about it, what AR are you now?"
"Well, it's, I think...AR 23 or more..." You thought absentmindedly.
"That's quick," your sibling mused, "How is your experience so far as a beginner?"
"Well it's fun, I love the world-building, the colour, the gameplay, and the Ui..." You trailed, listing what you liked about the game until an irritated look appeared on your face that made your sibling perk at it. "Except for Aether!"
Your sibling flinched at your outburst before she raised a confused eyebrow at you, "Aether? The traveler?"
"Yes!" You grip your hand into a fist while seething in anger. "I don't know why they implanted such a feature, Like every time I try to play, he gotta need to defy my game control, it's creepy! He used to follow me but now he keeps making ugly faces at me like excuse me!"
"I really, really hate him!"
You keep rambling about your frustration with the traveler which leaves your sibling gaping.
"I don't think they have that..." Your sibling uttered out.
"Well, I did! And it needs to stop!"
"Do you contact Hoyo Customer Service? Is it probably a bug?" Your sibling suggested.
"I did but they never replied." You said crossing your arms.
"They probably will get back to you, one of these days since I am sure they have many people to attend to." Your sibling reassured.
"I hope so,"
Your sibling then chuckles, "But I don't think you would hate him for so long."
You frown with an eyebrow raised, "Why so?"
"They're gonna be a certain quest when you reach AR 28 or above which gives more lore about him." She elaborates.
"I don't think I would." You squint your eyes.
"Well the fact you still using the Traveler despite the bug he has, say so." She snickers, "Just give him a chance, hate the bug instead of him."
You scratch your cheeks and sigh, "We will see."
You decided to give the game, a second chance.
"Aether, don't you think...you being too mean to the Creator?" She whispered scratching her cheeks floating, looking down on Aether crouching down inside the bushes.
They currently watching over a couple of boars walking with Aether having his sword in his grip.
Aether glances at Paimon before smiling, "Well, it's not that bad, it's a small price for them to control my body." He turns his attention back to the boars.
Paimon deadpanned, "What a lie! You just did that so they left early!"
He doesn't respond and just quickly dashes out from the bushes and thrusts his sword onto one of the boar, quickly he pulls back the other sword and slashes the boar sprinting toward him.
Quickly he used his Anemo ability to pull back the almost-escaping boars and slashed them in one go.
Blood splatter on his face, outfit, hair and his swords.
"Ah," he wiped the blood on his cheeks with his thumbs, "I need to get better at dodging the blood-splattered," He said out loud.
Aether suddenly flinched and turned his body to see another boar is running up to him.
"Hi-ya!" Paimon shouted, hitting the boars with a rock on the forehead. "Don't you dare to attack Aether!"
Aether blinked and smiled, "Thanks for the help, Paimon."
Paimon perks up and throws away the rock somewhere else, "Hehe, you're welcome~ praise me more~" she giggles happily.
"Now calm down," Aether chuckled.
Aether then gets to work after cleaning himself with a towel to cut the boar meat, one by one.
After that was done, Aether decided to sit down to open his notebook, and start writing some alphabet and spelling again.
Paimon sits down beside the Traveler, watching the letter he wrote with knowing looks.
"Is that the Creator's language?" She asked, quietly after watching her surrounding.
Aether nodded, "Yeah, I managed to decipher some of it."
"Oh! What is it? Let me see!" Paikon excitedly asked and leaned over to look at it.
Paimon curiosity slowly turned into a horrified look, "Did the Creator say that?"
"Yeah," Aether said amused at Paimon's reaction, "surprising huh?"
"There is a lot of cursing! Outrageous mean word!" She blinks rapidly, "The Creator has very interesting wording..."
"Most of the curse directed at me, I am not surprised." He smirked.
Paimon looks at Aether's face still has a smile and a fond look on his face. "You like them?"
Aether stops writing, "Huh?" He turns to Paimon.
"The Creator! Do you finally like them?" She excitedly asked.
"No!" Aether quickly stood up and took a step back, "Ain't no way! I just tolerate the Creator better than before!"
Aether is very obviously in denial with his cheeks adorned with pink blush, averting his eyes.
It's very true that Aether slowly but surely started to understand the creator, whether their language and their intention choosing him as a vessel.
The first word he managed to decipher is 'love' from the Creator's language, it's when Aether has fallen from the Statue Of Seven that the Creator for some reason controlled him to do so.
He had a fatal injury caused by that, and while he was whimpering in pain, he heard the Creator change of tone.
Aether's eyes widened, and he looked up at the sky, the creator rambled a lot but he could hear the concern and care for him which gave him goosebumps
"...Aether!$%-#&#!"
Aether perks up again when he hears his name between the rambling and his eyes widen more.
"...Aether&%$%...love#%#&#-!"
His lips parted when he understood the word, Aether's cheeks burned red and his eyes turned hazy.
He doesn't realize what happening to him but Aether for sure has stopped functioning at this time.
Aether shook his head from his flashback and continued to scribble some more. His ear is red as his scribbling becomes faster but much to his chagrin, the scene keeps playing in his head.
Paimon, who watching at his side had a small smile adorning her face. 'Aether surely has grown to like the Creator and that's good.
Both of them will stuck together until they reach their intended goal, they are both important to me, so please help each other."
Paimon hands intertwined. together to prayer, eyes closed with her forehead leaning to her clasped hands.
Until it's snapped open, Paimon turned her head with a frown. 'Who?'
She scanned the surroundings when she sensed something wrong again. 'Behind that tree." Paimon narrows her eyes.
She was about to move and check it out but suddenly Aether stood up which gained Paimon attention back to him.
"Aether? Why are you standing?" She called moving to him, "Where are we going?"
She tilted her head when Aether didn't answer her which was odd until she moved in front of him.
There she sees Aether standing still with his eye twitching in irritation. 'Ah, the Creator is back.'
Paimon smiles sympathetically at Aether.
Aether's body then quickly moved in a sprint which made Aether's eyes wide with Paimon followed in tow.
As they move away, neither Aether nor Paimon didn't realizes that someone is watching them from afar behind a tree, the arrow they grip in their hands is put away.
The unknown eye glints with mysterious light, "The Creator..." They breathe.
You are lying down on the bed, empty and in pain.
There are tears stained under your eyes, your eyes are red from crying so hard for a long time. Akin to a person on the brink of death gate and barely gripping onto life.
"i can't believe it." you hiccup, "Lumine, why are you doing this?! Reunite with your brother, come on!" you shout in frustration, kicking your feet into the air.
You just recently finish the 'We will be reunited' quest and it broke you down from the inside hard. You are mad at Lumine but at the same you try to understand her but what actually fueled to your anger against her is Aether.
After the quest, Aether's face have trail of tears and hurt plastered that you didn't have a heart to do anything that often making you in verge of crying. Often you have started to not using Aether, in hope his expression will be better but it just become worse and you even begun to miss his smirk from before.
Everytime you try your best to help the boy even though it's probably a waste of time. After using him back again for daily mission, his face become focus like he try to pull his mind away from the events. It's like he try to move on, his expression look so real which should not be possible since Aether is a character game.
"I can't seem to leave him alone," You rub your eyes and slowly calming yourself down. Getting up from the bed you reach for your phone and open your messaging app.
After a back and forth messaging with your sibling and friend, you finally come to conclusion of what to do now.
You get back with soda and snack by your side as you open up Genshin Impact in your phone with a determined face.
"I can't believe that I am doing this for a game character that I hate..." you mutter as you sigh before focusing to the screen again.
"My money..."
"OUR MONEY!" Paimon scream, "Why are the Creator even use it to but a freaking expensive firework!!" she whined into her hand.
"We could use it to buy more Sticky Honey Roast!" She cried out, step onto the ground pr air repeatly.
Aether just sigh, "Well we can't do anything about it," he keep jogging forward to somewhere that even he doesn't know with the Creator controlling him. "We will gain it back in no time, so don't worry so much Paimon."
"Okay... but where are we even going?"
Aether narrow his eye as he climb up the boulder, "Hm...I don't know but this place seem familiar."
The more they walk and climb, the more familiar the surrounding area looks, Aether is now crouching down to set down the firework under a cliff before his body starts to sprint up up to the cliff where from there, he could see Mondstadt.
"Are the creators trying to light fireworks in the morning?" Paimon wonders out loud, "What the point? It's not even night!"
But then a miracle happened, the day quickly went back to nighttime time and both Aether and Paimon's eyes widened at the sight.
The sky that once had a sun on its landscape now has a moon and star decorating It.
At the right time, the fireworks shoot up into the air and burst into many colour.
"Wow...." Aether breathed out in awe.
"Aether..."
Aether suddenly glances at the sky when he hears the Creator speak his name. Each word the Creator utters makes his heart skip a beat, flushing red and his eye sparkling.
"....With this, I hope you will cheer up a little bit."
A trail of tears goes down his cheeks as the Creator's words end. He can't understand some of it but the way his heart thumping, he just knows for sure that.
Aether has fallen in forbidden love with the...
Creator.
Pairing: Sagau!Aether x Reader
Summary: Aether finds solace in the voice, he once hated and now loves.
!Warning!: First Time Writing, might be bad!
Part 1/2/3
Aether's first memory after he woke up from his long slumber is hearing a voice talking. It was distant but felt close to his ear but he saw no one near the vicinity.
He pushed himself up from the ground, patting his hair to clean off the remaining sand that stuck on his clothes.
'Where is this? How long I have been sleeping?'
Aether's eyes enlarged when he looked up to look around.
The world... He looking at is incomplete like it was just building itself. The sky had sun but it was dark, the birds that were flying in the sky moved without flapping their wings. The ocean and the sand he steps on, doesn't make a sound.
Aether started walking trailing along the shore, his frown evident. He doesn't know what to think about his situation at all, his first thought is to search for his sister who has been taken away fromm him but now he doesn't know what to do when he doesn't understand what kind of world he is in the first place.
Once again the voice he heard came up again, they sound frustrated but unfortunately, Aether couldn't understand the language they spoke, he couldn't decipher any of it even from the language he learned from another world he visited.
None of it fit.
Abruptly, Aether is frozen in place, his step is halted like some force holding him in place. He struggles through it, but his body doesn't respond to him, only his eyes can move to feel which wide as far as he can be.
Aether felt fears through his veins and fate, 'Lumine...' Aether's last thought before a bright light consumed him.
Aether opened his eyes with a jolt, breathing heavily, he turned his head when he felt movement only to meet with his beloved sister's eyes.
"L-Lumine..." Aether uttered, he quickly embraced her which surprised the other.
"Aether? What's wrong?" She said, worriedly.
"I have a long dream that you and me-"
Aether doesn't manage to say the rest of his words when everything happens so fast. He froze in place when fighting midair to escape before his sister was taken again.
Again they were separated.
Accompany with a voice that screams with him before his world becomes dark and consumes the bright light again.
"Lumine!"
Aether woke up again on the same beach but it was complete. The sun that bright, the bird flapping its wings, the sound of the ocean, and the sand he stepped on.
It's different, the voice too no longer there, and for a few months he is there.
He then meets paimon whom he saves from drowning, and not long after that excited voice enters his eardrums, this time the voice is clear like the flow of river.
Aether's eyes widened involuntarily which Paimon comments on, confused.
"No, it's nothing," he shook his head but then he heard a squeal, he still didn't understand the language but his cheeks went a bit red when he heard his name between the squealing.
But the moment is gone when Aether's body starts to move by itself around the beach, slashing at the bushes, running after golden crabs and Lizard, and jumping every step take took.
He almost died by drowning when the body suddenly moved to swim in the ocean and by the end of it, there was is treasure chest behind the rock.
The whole time Aether's face is full of terror, he even loses the capability to speak, he can't even ask for help from Paimon.
Suddenly he regained his body control and there was a light glow around his body. His body felt a little bit stronger and his stamina increase after the effect was gone.
He hears a gasp from Paimon, "An artifact blessing!"
"Artifact blessing?" Aether asked quietly, hugging himself, still feeling spooked by what just happened.
Paimon's nodded, "Uh-huh! You are so lucky even as an Outlander! You don't even have a vision but you got a blessing from the creator itself!"
"Creator? Do you mean Archon?"
"No! Archon is different from than Creator, The Creator is the one who created the world we live in right now, one of the people that even Celestia respect and believe in!" Paimon said, waving her hand around to prove her point.
"You will see!"
Paimon brought Aerher to the status of seven, the Anemo God. "Look up, if you see the clock the Anemo Archon wore, it belongs to the creator!" Paimon started.
"Each Statue has at least one or two things they hold of Creator belonging on their statues which to show they were favor by them!"
Aether looks at the statues, his face looks firm, and has a lot of thoughts in his head.
"What if...you can hear the so-called Creator's voice? They even can control your body anytime they please...what would the person be then...?"
Paimom blinked with a frown evident on her face, "That...would be...dangerous,"
"Huh?"
"I-I mean! Everyone herein Teyvat even the Archon loves the Creator if they know someone who can hear their beloved Creator and even can be controlled by them..." Paimon trailed off as she crossed her arms in troubled faces, "The person certainly would be a target."
"...I see," Aether nodded, "you still don't answer my question, Paimon."
"Well, that just means, the person is the Creator's vessel, and The Creator is fond of them to even let them hear their voices." Paimon said, "Also having a Creator by your side certainly will bring a lot of fortune, power, and a bright future to your side right?"
First time reblogging, kinda nervous.. But the creator demanded it so here we go.. Great story btw!

tw: brief mention of death
—
A performer, a traveler, a bard. How peculiar you have become.
[prologue] - [next]
—
You kicked your feet back and forth from your perch atop a merchant’s carriage, grinning as you caught your first few glimpses of the city of Mondstadt. It shone in the center of Cider Lake like a crown, the many windmills chugging along, blades pushed by the invisible hand of the wind.
“Having fun, huh,” the carriage driver chuckled, grinning at your clear excitement, “You’re a kätzlein, aren’t ya? You from here?”
“Nope,” you chirped, “I get it from my mom, I think. I’m actually from Snezhnaya.”
The driver whistled in surprise.
“Snezhnaya! You’re real far from home!”
You nodded, admiring the way the wind blew through the grass. You weren’t lying about not being from Mondstadt, at least. The anemo vision on your hip glowed beautifully in the sun, the blank vision next to it dull and cloudy.
Your Snezhnayan anemo vision was courtesy of your double, but the blank one…well, that was a much longer story.
Not one you were willing to think about now.
“Should I play some music? We’ll be there in a song or two’s time, I’m sure.”
“Oh, please do,” the driver said, grinning gratefully, “you know your music is always well appreciated.”
With that, you opened your fiddle’s intricate wooden case, lifting it gently from the velvet-lined box. It had cost you a small fortune back in Sumeru, having been brought there from Fontaine, but it was worth it.
You played a few notes as a test, but everything seemed to be in tune. With that, you held the fiddle up and began to play a cheery working song.
The whole world seemed to pause to listen as you played, the notes carried far and wide by the wind. You never had the musical talent on earth that you did now. You assumed that Teyvat itself guided your hands and your voice, teaching you the fiddle in a matter of days and aiding your voice where you would usually falter.
The driver began whistling to the tune. The horses, encouraged by your playing, seemed less exhausted. The hilichurls and slimes nearby followed your caravan for a short while before going back to their homes, drawn forth and pacified by your music.
You had learned to channel your magic after all, it seemed, through singing and the playing of instruments.
…
It took exactly three songs to reach the city, not two like you had thought.
…
You thanked the driver, as well as the merchant, for agreeing to take you along with them, before leaving the group and beginning to wander around the city of the wind.
The people of Mondstadt were quite friendly. Less so when they noticed your vision and realized where you were from, but still welcoming to an extent. It was only fair, considering that the vast majority of Snezhnayans in the city were part of the Fatui, but still uncalled for.
After wandering the city for quite a bit of time, you made your way back to the fountain in the center of the city. You smiled to the young girl who was tossing coins into the water, setting down your things, resting your hat upside down on the ground by your feet, and once again opening up your case.
The intricate appearance of the violin case, as well as the instrument itself, drew attention from a few passerby. You breathed deeply, soothing your nerves, before beginning to play.
It became clear to you that you shouldn’t have worried at all about playing in the middle of the town plaza.
Your playing was as beautiful as always.
The song carried throughout the plaza, drawing the attention of most everyone nearby. The pigeons nearby settled on the buildings closest to you, leaning forward to hear better. The flowers growing in the windows and balconies of the buildings nearby seemed to sway to the music, perking up and almost seeming to grow faster. Quite a few people slowed down too, listening appreciatively and occasionally dropping some mora into your hat.
As you performed, you thought back to your first visit to Mondstadt.
It was much less pleasant, to say the least.
You had been chased out of the city within thirty minutes. The guards were probably weighing the pros and cons of running through the large crowd with their weapons drawn, but clearly they had made up their minds pretty quickly.
You had gone with them at first. You were more than willing to comply with them in the beginning, hoping that there was just some sort of misunderstanding. Once you realized just how much danger you were in, though, you ran.
You had gone to Liyue next, then Inazuma, then you passed through Liyue again and made your way to Sumeru.
Where, of course, you had almost died, and here you were now.
Minus half of your hand, sadly, but you were still alive, at the very least.
You flexed your wooden fingers, continuing to play your fiddle. Considering the money that had been tossed into your hat, you would most likely be able to find somewhere to stay the night within the city. You might even be able to afford a nice meal for yourself.
You continued to play until one of the other bards in the city chased you off, as the fountain was apparently ‘his’ spot to play. Still, you probably needed a break anyways, so there weren’t any hard feelings.
You made your way over to Good Hunter, ordering a plate of Sticky Honey Roast and sitting down. It was far too much food to eat by yourself, especially considering your shrunken stomach, but you managed regardless.
You sat there for a while afterwards, trying to plan what to do next.
Goth Hotel was fully booked by the Fatui, you recalled, so you wouldn’t be able to stay there. You could always camp outside of the city, but you would prefer to spend the night under a roof with running water, so that was out.
Unable to recall anywhere to stay from your encyclopedic memory of the lore of Teyvat, you decided to go to the Angel’s Share and ask around there.
…
The drunks at the Angel’s Share, unfortunately enough, were much less welcoming than the general public. One glance at the vision on your hip and they would ignore you for the rest of the night, occasionally glowering at you from across the tavern.
You were quite certain that you had Diluc’s hatred for the Fatui to blame for that. After all, it would only make sense that people who agreed with his sentiments would flock to the place.
Your fluffy ears twitched sadly, your tail drooping. You would have to yell at your double later for not only giving you a Snezhnayan vision, but also for giving you cat ears. It was humiliating.
You sat down at the bar, getting a drink for yourself and planning your next move. Sure, you could camp outside the city and return in the day for money, but you had been camping in the wilderness for weeks at this point, and you were quite tired of it. Maybe there was another hotel somewhere nearby..?
“Aha,” someone called, interrupting your thoughts. You turned, only to see…
Mona..?
“Just as I thought,” she said, a proud smile on her face, “I knew you would be here. Your arrival was written in the stars.”
You blanked. Mona, Mona… of course you recognized her, you could recognize any of the playable characters, but you didn’t know all too much about her. She was an astrologist, and you had seen memes about her being broke, but other than that? Nothing. You didn’t know what to expect.
“Ah, hello,” you greeted her nervously, tail flicking back and forth, “who might you be?”
“I,” she started, puffing up in pride, “am Astrologist Mona Megistus, but you may call me Mona. Of course, you already know that.”
Oh, she knew.
You gave her your best pleading look, silently begging her to shut up and go somewhere more private to talk.
She either didn’t notice, or she actively ignored you.
“It’s an honor to finally meet you, and I’m sure that you feel the same way,” she continued on, “I’m certain that with our abilities combined, we—”
“Oh, you’re a fan of my music?”
You stared at her with desperation clear in your eyes. Just play along, you screamed internally at her, please just play along so I don’t die.
“Uh—yes..?”
You smiled warmly at her, grasping her hands in yours while quickly building a role to play in your head.
“Oh, it’s wonderful to meet a fan! I didn’t expect to have any yet, since I’ve only just started performing!”
She nodded, clearly trying to act natural. Luckily nearly everyone in the tavern was drunk already, and wouldn’t notice more subtle expressions.
“Yes, I…I like your work quite a bit. I’d like to discuss it with you, actually, but I fear it might be a bit too rowdy in here.”
Oh thank gods, you thought, trying not to visibly deflate in relief, thank whatever gods are out there.
“Sure! Do you have any place in mind?”
“Oh…” Mona paused awkwardly, trying to think of something, “how about…we just…take a walk around the city? It’s quite beautiful when the sun starts to set.”
You nodded, following her out of the crowded tavern and into the city streets. The two of you entered a small empty alleyway as soon as you could.
You sighed in relief, heart beating heavily as you leaned against one of the alley walls.
“Oh my god, I thought I was going to die,” you whimpered out, breathing deeply, “please never do that again.”
“But…no one would ever dare to harm you, Your Grace,” Mona said, staring at you in confusion, “is that why you decided to take up a glamour to hide your true form as well?”
“Did you ever hear about the impostor?”
“Ah—of course!” She puffed up in self-importance, “everyone heard about them, the mortal who dared to steal the face of a god. You ordered the Archons to hunt them down and punish them for their crimes.”
“Mona,” you said, your voice somewhat strained, “that was me. The person who says they’re the creator—they’re lying. They almost got me murdered.”
Mona stared at you in disbelief.
The city of Mondstadt truly was beautiful today. The setting sun painted the buildings and the clouds in shades of yellow and red, the chatter of the crowds almost musical if you listened closely.
A gust of wind blew through the alleyway, blowing Mona’s hair into her face. But how could the wind be so gentle, so soft, now that she knew what had happened?
The astrologists originated from a friend of the original Creator. They had taught their friend everything that they knew about the stars, laying bare the secrets of the universe in front of their eyes.
Forever indebted to the Creator for their teachings, the astrologists had a sacred duty to protect the Creator and all of their creations, no matter the cost.
There were tales of astrologists who had parted seas, crumbled mountains, calmed tempests, all in the name of the Creator and their people.
Mona had failed in her sacred duty. Spectacularly.
“Hey—wait, are you—no, stop crying! I-I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to make you—”
Mona pulled you into a hug, her arms wrapped around you with all of her strength. Muffled sobs came from her shaking form.
Reluctantly, uncertainly, you wrapped your arms around her, stroking her back in a way you hoped was comforting.
“I failed you,” she gasped out. It seemed like the only thing she could say, repeating it over and over.
“Hey—no, you didn’t fail me, I—you didn’t even know! It’s okay!”
She shook her head, utterly despondent.
“I…I cannot go on knowing this, knowing I have so horribly failed in my duties. Please, punish me in whatever way you see fit. I would die in order to pay this debt.”
“That—I can’t do that, I—,” you paused for a moment, thinking to yourself, “actually, I can think of something.”
Pulling away from you, she stared at the cobbled floor at your feet, nodding silently.
“I…well, this is embarrassing, but I don’t exactly have a place to stay since all the hotels are full,” you said sheepishly, scratching at the back of your head. Mona looked up at you expectantly.
“Do you think…I might be able to stay with you..?”

After several attempts, and failures, they finally succeeded.
They got through
To your world.
What next? Try and Find you, Rush to your side first thing and try to casually explain that a video game character broke out of their code to see them?
Maybe set things up first? Comfy living, then an easy way to find you? Or go off clues from things you used to say or areas he saw behind you? Or did he get lucky and he’s two feet away?
Man, He should have checked the code for your location…..No time to lose!
------------------
𝑹𝒊𝒅𝒅𝒍𝒆 🌹

Truth be told, he got quite lucky.
A library is where he arrived, one he recognized as your hiding spot to study, or simply relax.
So, he found every tome he thought relevant on what he needed to know of the basics of your world, aswell as the one he last witnessed you study, and sat himself in the seat next to where you usually did, awaiting your arrival.
Was it timely? Perhaps, Perhaps not.
You’d been slightly (Very) annoyed that for some reason, none of your Riddle cards would show his appearance. The Chibi was no where to be seen, and your homescreen vacant of him.
So as you made your way to your spot, you nearly shrieked because either thats a damn good cosplay or Riddle Rosehearts was very casually reading the history textbook your teacher assigned while sitting four feet away from your usual spot.
Steel blue eyes scoped to check the noise, and sat up instantly.
“Just as I expected, you’d arrive here sooner or later. You certainly took your time, however.”
Before you could process the fact he sounded suspiciously like Ciel Phantomhive, he quite literally summoned a tea set. Out of thin air.
And was just staring. Most definitely waiting for you to sit down casually like he didn’t summon an entire china set with piping hot tea in a magicless world.
This was the real deal. Mommy Issues Supreme was now officially your problem. Good Luck.

He remembered the name of the bakery down the street you visited.
As a joke, when you’d finished book one, you’d ordered a Strawberry Tart. He couldn’t exactly remember if you actually ate it, or gave it away, but it was funny, regardless.
Using Paint the Roses, he altered a napkin into a very nice resume, and he got a job there.
When Trey up and vanished from your homescreen, you’d gone to get a pastry to cheer yourself up. Not the best coping skill, but hey, it works.
It was pretty late, and it seemed they were closing up, so you planned to just be in and out, not wanting to make their job any harder.
The little bell rung as you entered, and the little alarms in your head went off when you arrived at the counter, and a-wait, why would someone cosplay at their job? Trey and working at a Bakery fit together, but…wait a second. Thats not a wig, and thats not contacts either.
If Ingame Trey was missing, and this guy looked exactly like him…..Nope, Not Possible.
Trying to play it casual , you ordered the usual and once you had it, sat down as you normally would.
But when you took a bite of your treat, it tasted like….Strawberry. Then Chestnut. What the hell.
You unintentionally had an odd staring contest with the current cashier, who then held out a scarily familiar pen, chuckling a bit as he placed it on the counter.
“Surprise.”
After making his way around the counter, he sat down on the other side of the table, doing his best to not freak you out too much.
“Yea, I know this might be a bit confusing, and It’s probably not easy to process all this, so take your time, and I’ll answer any questions you have.”
Great, because you had several.

Social Media Stalking but not Stalking was his forte.
The first thing he did was make pretty much every account he could on medias he knew you had. Like Tumblr.
He decided it would be way too freaky to just pop up out of nowhere, so as he was thinking and exploring, he took a few selfies and photoshoots here are there.
And WOW. They blew up. At first he thought it was the general math of Attractive Guy + Good Photos of him = Alot of Views. He had sorta kinda forgot other people knew about Twist until he noticed the flood of “Cater IRL” and “THE Cater Cosplay” comments. Which gave him an idea.
After the annoyance of all your Caters being lost in the code sauce, you messed around online until you accidentally pulled up a page with the greatest Cater Cosplay you had ever witnessed.
You had to do a double take when the follow button said “Follow Back”. You complied with the buttons wishes and followed them back.
After a while, you somehow ended up dming back and forth with him, and his strangely Cater coded texts. You also discovered that it apparently wasn’t a cosplay, and just his natural appearance was scarily similar to Caters..and his name was Cater, which was accidentally revealed by a Starbucks barista calling out after finishing making his drink while you were calling.
Part of you suspected that this could be the real Cater, with all the math adding up, and the other half of you called you a fucking idiot for that.
Little did you know the first one was exactly what Cater was hoping for.
With that, he managed to do some kinda social media stalking ( but not like, Rook Levels, DW) and found your general area based on area matching (TY Google Maps!) and nearly jumped for joy when he realized it was where he was too.
He subtly managed to sneak that in conversation, and set up a meetup between you two, a brunch and phone shopping. Weird Pick on the last one, but you decided not to judge.
The first thing he said when you arrived confused you, alot.
With a bright smile, he waved you over.
“Hey! Long Time no see!”
Ignoring the aggressive red flag in that statement with a simple “Maybe he meant since we called” as if you didn’t call him last night to plan this out, either way, you scooted in.
You two got so distracted chatting, at one point making up a game of fake gossiping the craziest things to see if anyone reacted, and for your own entertainment.
Because of that, your drink went warm, and as soon as you mentioned it, you got your answer to the “Where did my Caters go.” question.
Why? Because, as if this had happened before, he simply refroze it. Magically.
As you stared in pure awe and confusion, he grimaced upon the realization his cover was pretty much blown.
“Whoops…Lets just pretend that didn’t happen, and I’ll explain later, ‘Kay?”
You just had to pray nobody witnessed that, as Area 51 did definitely did not sound like Cay-Cays ideal Vacay.

He thought it would be fucking HILARIOUS to prank you, as, unfortunately for you, he ended up in your house, only to find out you were asleep, which gave him the opportunity to PUA (Prank Upon Arrival)
For the next several hours of your waking life, Ace of Hearts playing cards of varying sizes would be infesting your house, or when you’d put something down and look away, there was either a card on it or it had been replaced by a card.
You were also robbed of leftovers you’d been saving, and a few snacks by this card demon.
After you left the house vacant (you fool), the Knave struck again, this time sneaking out and guessing your next move, heading off to a cafe because you needed caffeine after the card madness, until you had already ordered, and you had turned on Twist while waiting for your drink.
Quietly, he slid into the chair infront of you as you grumbled.
“He’s not on the homescreen either—Where the hell are all my Ace cards?”
Hehe, Infront of you. This is the best setup ever.
Leaning back on the chair, he couldn’t contain a grin as he faked obliviousness.
“I dunno. Maybe try looking around a lil’ more?”
Not paying much attention to who was talking to you in your moment of despair , you sighed, swiping back to the home screen.
“They’re not those kinds of cards.”
“Aren’t like, five of them card themed?”
“Four right now, since Ace has seemingly gone and fucked off to another dimension:”
“Yeaaa, about that. It was not as easy to do as you’re making it sound. Just saying.”
You looked up for a split second, then did a double take and nearly skyrocketed out of your chair, making indecipherable confusion noises while he laughed his ass off, totally soaking in the success of his perfect surprise you had unintentionally enabled.
While you stood frozen in shock, he simply grabbed your things, put them in your hand, S̶t̶o̶l̶e̶ grabbed your coffee, and whisked you out the door.
I pray for you, good luck dealing with him.

Woke up in either your garage or kitchen, and was confused. Rightfully so.
Since he couldn’t really find you around, but at least recognized this as your house, he just waddled around more or less, fixing random things here and cleaning up there while trying to find clues to where you might be, or if he should just wait here.
He finally found a grocery list, which you had forgotten, and spent the next 10 minutes trying to find the nearest grocery store while unintentionally locking himself out of the house in the process, so made the genius decision to hope you were still at the grocery store and dashed over.
You’re doing great, dude.
Anywho, he got lucky, because in the middle of carrying off your shopping bags, your notification that your AP was full went off, and as you went to use it, you noticed a severe lack of Deuce on your homescreen.
This lead to sitting on a bench and getting distracted trying to figure out why the hell this glitch had only affected your Deuce cards, so you weren’t paying much attention when you heard a voice somewhat far off but close.
“Oh hey! There you are!”
Assuming it was for someone else, you continued trying to fix the “glitch”, then paused when you heard the voice from before right infront of you.
“Do you need help with carrying those bags?”
The words “I’m good, thanks.” died on your tongue when you looked up, only to be face to face with the guy you’d been suffering trying to figure out where he went for 20 minutes. Ingame. In a VIDEO GAME.
Internally, you practically short-circuited, after you panicked, he started panicking, and you both ended up in a weird confusion panic that had the energy of the spidermans pointing at eachother meme.
Great job! You have now acquired a German Shepard Golden Retriever mix in human form.

Unlike most of them, he had absolutely zero trouble hopping into your world.
However, instead of revealing himself right away, he decided to be the ghost of good deeds and mischief. And a random black cat you’d suspiciously find on your window sill demanding pets or cuddles.
Luckily transforming, flying, invisibility, and the rest of his magic ability seemed to work just fine.
Sometimes, you’d randomly find things placed in unusual places, spoons on the ceiling, for example, the paintings or pictures sometimes randomly taking on very funny faces, teacups and plates floating around at 2am, leaving you to assume it was a sleepy hallucination.
Other times you’d be aggravatingly trying to fix something, look away for one moment, and not only was it fixed, it looked almost brand new. Or you’d open the fridge or pantry, and notice the lack of food, then open it again, and i’d be filled to the brim.
You never noticed anything too strange on Twist itself however until you got bored one day, and decided to replay Heartstabyls chapters, only to realize Che’nya was…completely missing.
Out of sheer curiosity, you checked his Pomfieore Chapter appearance. Nothing. Gone.
Trying to see if it was just the WIFI connection, you moved rooms, only to see a blink of purple in the corner of your eye.
Lounging in the air by the window, tail swaying lazily, he peeked over, then grinned his signature grin.
“Nya-ice to meet you~”

Yay! Thats all!!
Holy shit I can’t believe I wrote this, feel free to take me out (Date or Assassination I really don’t care)

quick sfw fic to cleanse all of your palate from all that filth :). sagauauauauauu because my time in genshin dropped by a mile. definitely not because i’m playing honkai and have been into star rail beta lately. definitely not that. :) also definitely not an introduction to the possibility of me writing for the hsr men once the game comes out :))
𖦹 crack fic, subtle dark themes in the end, sfw sfw :D, whore overseer reader sigh, mentions of characters from hsr and honkai impact, but nothing to concern yourself over. though i would recommend you see them for yourself hehe
Quiet. It had been all too quiet. Everyone looked up at the skies where often your softest gaze can be seen as you waited for the world to prepare for your arrival. You, their ever so benevolent overseer, isn’t around to spend some time with them like you usually would.
Such a mistake can’t exactly be unforgivable. They know you have a life other than being the great overseer of their world. You’ve talked to the many other otherworldly beings in your world, and they’ve lent their ears on days where you weren’t feeling the greatest, often do they have to suffer seeing you in such a mess as well. But there was nothing that they could do but keep up the support, letting you just sit back and diligently puppet them around, watching with satisfaction as they dealt bigger and heavier damage than the usual.
But these days, it had been relatively different. The way you were absent was in a rather poor taste, according to your devoted characters. It left something within them that they didn’t particularly want to entertain, sensing that there was something that changed with you.
Suddenly, your usual schedule of nightly visits with them turned erratic. You would either come earlier, or much later, barely making it through the commissions before the daily reset.
Worst of all, the new area that the Dendro Archon has offered to you, the one that you promised you would explore with your beloved team was suddenly left at thirty percent. You promised you would dedicate yourself into exploring the new area more, seeing that you were so excited to see Jeht and the new characters, even the NPCs that had to play the roles of the bad guys didn’t mind your berating.
Your promise was yet to be fulfilled and yet every time you would log in, you would only finish up the commissions quick and spend the resin on leylines, not bothering to farm for the artifacts and talent books like you promised to the others as well. And after that, you’re quick to leave them alone again in the wake of silence that only you can fill.
It was painful to see you leave, the care that you always showered with them slowly dwindling — your promises that seemed to hold all the water in Teyvat suddenly breaking, turning into an empty vessel of lies. You were breaking their hearts.
The hardworking ones slowly finding less meaning in foraging materials for you when you would send them on expeditions. They used to be so eager to come back with more than what you expected, finding your surprised face and the way you smiled so gratefully at them far more rewarding than any mora they’ve been paid with for the expedition. You were worth it in their eyes, and no matter how high the mountains they may climb, no matter how strong the thunderstorms are, they did not mind. It was for you after all.
The children that you’ve taken in your roster, ones that you’ve cared for, were slowly wilting and losing their childish glee. You no longer played with them. You always took them out, claiming that your daughters can cause better chaos than any other Archon combination out there. But all you’ve ever used these past few days is your main team, and even then, they were only there to serve your commissions to be done quickly.
The Archons that you’ve nurtured and built so well were lost without your gaze on them. Their lives becoming far more dull without the anticipation of being selected to lead or support your current team. You always experimented on their capabilities and tested just how far you can drive up the skills they’ve accumulated under your mercy. But now, there was barely any suspense as you came and went, barely even having the chance for them to feel you.
The abyss was lonely without you. Often it had fun at seeing your torment when you lost a single star, only to come back again with different contenders. And even when you won, frustration was not the response you would get if the abyss was sentient enough to show you its feelings.
The traveler… oh, your dearest traveler was lonely without you. More than anything, you’ve always taken the time to just explore with just them in the team, indulging the personal time you’ve made for them, foraging for specialties even when you can easily locate them with the nation specialty experts on your team. But no, you shared this time just for them and them.
But now there was coldness that you left. You were always so busy but there was nothing keeping you either. But how would they even know when you barely talk to them anymore. You became so unnervingly quiet that it was uncomfortable for everyone, only seeing your eyes focused into desecrating every enemy on your hit list of commissions. They barely had time to appreciate your company.
Not when the last time you spoke, it sounded like being with them was a chore.
“Ugh. It’s almost reset time. Gotta make this quick.”
And just when they thought you’d stay for a few more minutes to continue with the reset, you’d leave quick.
They all wanted to break through their code, change the texts of their voice lines should you happen upon their profile accidentally and see that they wanted to know why you’ve become so distant lately.
Fortunately, your beloved characters are bound to get their answers on the day that you were interrupted.
Aether watched from the sidelines — just because he wasn’t visible in the team, it didn’t mean that he was completely shoved in the back unlike the others. He will always be around to talk to the other residents of Teyvat for you. He’s your voice after all, and he wouldn’t let anyone take that away from him. It’s the one job he has always enjoyed doing in comparison to all the commissions he’s taken on as an adventurer.
The outlander traveler watched as your team stayed still in place, gazing off in your direction, admiring the way your eyebrows knitted as the blaring call interrupted your time with them. Perhaps you still had some care within you, then?
Curiosity swept everyone like a massive tidal wave as you answered your little communication device, turning in your swivel chair.
“Speak before I change my mind about answering you,,” you huffed, a tad playful, but stayed silent as you listened to your friend. Even from the muted volume that the great barrier that is your screen provided, they can hear your friend’s rather loud laughter, possibly on a mission to destroy your poor ears.
“Ah, that? Yeah. I got into the beta testing. It’s wild, dude.” You chortled, before swiveling back to face your computer, those eyes of yours digging into your team’s bodies and boy were they glad they can control a shiver that you sent down their spines. There was always something so hypnotic about your gaze. Perhaps it’s why you’ve truly earned the title as their grand overseer. The way you seemed to just catch onto every little detail in the clothing they’ve donned on. It was a good feeling — to have your approval.
Your eyes never once left them as you continued on with your conversation, “It’s kind of like TCG, but with people. Hah… no. It’s kinda complicated, I’m not even going to lie, I have a feeling that people will really struggle if they don’t have the patience for this.” You smiled a little, “Yeah, people like you. …Apologize? What for? I’m only telling the truth. Anyway, even if you don’t have the patience, I’m sure you’ll bend your back for the characters.”
Now that piqued their interests. Even those who were situated in the backseat of your team, waiting to be used. “You’re not really wrong. You’ll see characters from Honkai there too. Yeah. Welt looks so old, dude. He’s giving DILF. You’ll like him.” You cackled.
Poor Zhongli felt offended. Wasn’t he the one to hold the distinction as the father you’d like to… copulate… with? You always made such flustering remarks every time he was out on a mission with you, putting him in circumstances that could leave him gasping for air, coming undone just from your comments that could leave any prudes fainting.
“Oh yeah, there’s a twink here too. Yanqing — he’s so adorable. You know I’m going to be all over him.”
The plethora of short men that you’ve showered with love and attention soon found themselves under attack. The threat of this… Yanqing suddenly breaking out in the surface. They hated the idea of someone else having your attention. As if it wasn’t already a pain to compete over you with others! It was always a battle with the short men (all except Aether, he knew he had a special place in your heart).
You hummed a little, kicking your legs and winced as you accidentally hit the legs of your computer desk. And while they knew it was wrong to see delight in your mild pain, it felt nice to see the cruel you get a little bit of punishment for your cruelty.
“Yeah no, I’m okay. Totally fine.” You hissed a little, opting to ride out the dull throb in your poor shin. “Anyway, overall, really good. You know who I’m going after though? Jing Yuan and Blade. I have to. I need them in my life. I need them and I need to be inside them—” a loud laugh erupts from the back of your throat as you listened to your poor friend choke on air at your words, ignoring their scolding, completely oblivious to the tall men that found complete displeasure in your words.
It wasn’t all too savory to see their beloved overseer suddenly turn your back on them, as you continued to rant away about the characters. Even the women that you took care of, and the children you’ve coddled were dragged into the mess, whining about someone named Kafka? Someone that the Shogun suddenly found herself narrowing her eyes at. You dare speak of other women on the day you said you’d visit her in her plane of Euthymia? Especially after surviving your mumbles about someone named Raiden Mei? Absolutely preposterous.
Your poor daughters wilted as you uttered about Bailu, gushing about her adorable face and wanting to protect her. Does that mean you’re giving up on protecting them? You seemed so hellbent on this new kid… oh, how it breaks their heart to be replaced by someone they considered as a parental figure…
And the endeared traveler in your heart grew anxious. Fear gnawed into the back of Aether’s mind as you shifted your attention to another character.
“Then there’s the trailblazer. Much like the traveler, you can also pick a guy or a girl. Of course I picked the guy, you know I’m already so, so weak for these tropes.” You turned back into the monitor and Aether watched in bated breath, now wishing that he wasn’t in the sidelines like always. He wanted to face you directly so you can see his heartbroken expression and perhaps take pity.
But your poor traveler could only listen to your words, “Yeah, I won’t say much. But he’s definitely interesting. I like him. A nice change, actually.” You laughed while Aether’s heart dropped to his stomach.
A nice change? What does that even mean? Were you implying that you were finally getting sick of him? That you no longer wanted to indulge him in your alone times together? Poor, poor Aether — how he wished to just break through the screen and drag you in their world.
For days, they’ve wanted to know what kept you away from them. But somehow finding out the reason only brought regret and bitterness. You almost forgot to spend time with them recently because you’re acting as an overseer in another world? Just how cruel can you get? You promised yourself to them the moment you swore your devotion as their overseer and caretaker.
You were theirs! Why can’t you see that?! Going off to other worlds, hopping in to gaze at other undeserving people that are probably not even aware of your presence unlike them!
Suddenly, there was an air of stagnancy around Teyvat.
Surely there has to be a way to convince you, right? For you to keep your eyes to only them and them. To devote your time only for them. To spend most of your time just taking care of them. Surely there was a way to delete the other worlds, no?
They’ve waited on you long enough, dearest overseer.
They should hope that you wouldn’t protest in their acts of rebellion, right?
And besides, you love them with all your heart and soul! You said that! Declared it even and proved it with their decked out builds and weapons and maxed out friendships! If that was the case, then you wouldn’t mind finally meeting them, right?
Right?
You chatted to your friend away, suddenly oblivious to the way your screen glitched. To the way suddenly this beta testing game you’re overseeing also fighting back, surprisingly just as sentient as they are.
There was a war brewing between these beloved pixels of yours. And hopefully you can appreciate just how much they will fight for the top place in that heart of yours.
Sagau idea (no crossover this time)
You'd get isekai'd to genshin and become a playable character (and the team at hoyoverse are trying to get you out)
(I know I wasn't the first to think of this idea but I wanted to bring this idea back and see what you guys can do with it)
Here's a another Genshin x Cookie Run Self Aware idea but this time it's just regular old sagau
We're in tevyat but this time one of kid cookies (or all of them) came with us while we were babysitting them in the kingdom (don't ask why we're babysitting them)
Imagine if Cherry Bomb and Klee ever met 😨 (Rip mondstadt 😰😰😰)
OMG! Thank you so much for this @rinriii 🥰🥰🥰 Keep up the good work and keep writing also good luck with school
[This is Home]
Genshin Impact x gn! Reader x crk
Where the reader was suddenly transported into the world of Teyvat along with their cookie friends, being chased around by people then suddenly being their god had you overwhelmed. Your stuck in this world, your creations wanting to go back to their home along with you, but where is home? Well home is right here in Teyvat my Grace
Idea came from: @strangefancrusade
Tagged: @g3n0dtt
This is so rush im so sorry I have school tommorow :0
You ran quickly as the mob chased after you, gripping your bag close to your body to protect it. Screams of dismay were thrown at you as arrows fired from left and right.
"hold on guys, just a bit more" you whispered, an arrow just barely grazed your face as you dodged the attack, your body rolling on the rocky ground.
Your hair was filled with mud and soil as you scrambled to stand up, your feet already running. You jumped down a cliff as you hoped for the best, luckily whatever being that was ruling Teyvat was on your side as you landed on a bush.
The mob going past you, their steps and shouts going farther and farther. You stood up, making sure no one was in sight, you quickly ran the other way to find shelter.
A random cave sufficed as you sat down, your face showing signs of relief as your lungs tried desperately to breath in air.
You looked at the bag you were holding, your hands scrambled to open it, trying to see if what was inside was damaged. "Your grace are you okay?"
A voice was heard from inside as more voices started to grow louder expressing their concerns. You moved towards the deeper part of the cave before sitting down, placing the bag on the ground.
The knight cookie, Madeline crawled out of the bag, his sword on his hand as he went to check on you. More and more cookies went out as they gathered around you "Beloved one, let me heal you" A soft voice of one of the very first cookies you baked comforted you.
"thankyou Pure vanilla, I really appreciate it" You huffed out, still having trouble to breath as your heart pumped blood into your system, the underline rush still present. "It's my pleasure beloved one" he comforted as he started to heal your cuts and bruises, slowly due to your size difference but it does the work.
Herb cookie was sitting on your shoulder trying to get the dirt out of your hair, his face was filled with sadness as he noticed cuts on your face and neck. You picked up the crying children, trying to shush them so you wont be noticed.
You felt water being splashed on your leg, your eyes noticing Sea fairy trying too wash away the dirt so Pure vanilla can heal.
Dark cacao was there trying to help the other cookies get out of the bag, it was really unfortunate how all of you were suddenly part of this big problem
It started out normally, you mixing up batter to make more treats as your creations watched in the sidelines. The Ancients, or the cookies you first created were there checking out the batter as Sea fairy and Herb were watering your plants near the window. The children running around the counter playing, while the dark cookies were there watching. The other cookies were busy chatting with you, trying to grab your attention.
Then suddenly all of you were suddenly transported in this unknown place, you were lucky enough to steal a bag to put all of them in to keep them safe.
You walked near the huge gate but even before you could even walk above it you saw a people gathered at the gate, a blonde lady leading them.
Then before you knew it they started chasing you, you tried to escape running for miles until you reached another City. And there again you met people gathered as if waiting for your arrival, not repeating the same mistake you quickly fled away.
And here you are, being bandaged up by your creations in a cave. For some reason ever since you came to this world, things have been unlucky, the winds would constantly try to slow you down, the earth creating rocks for you to get hurt on and lightning seem to come out of nowhere even with no storm.
Holly berry quickly rushed towards you, he face filled with panic "Greatest they are here!" Your face contorted quickly shoving them all in the bag, but you were to slow, once you ran towards the entrance of the cave they were already there.
"Your run ends here" A man with golden eyes said, his hand holding a spear pointing it at your neck. You quickly knelt down "Please! I-I haven't done anything, have I wronged you or have I offended you in some way!?" You begged.
"Just your existence has already offended us all"
Shouts and crying was heard in your bag, the bag shaking forcing you to drop it to the ground. You didnt dare make any movement as they eyed the bag.
"Hey! Whats wrong with you people?" They were all confused, a red headed cookie quickly jumped away from the bag running next to you "Chili please go back in the bag" you whispered.
"Please, please calm down, no need to harm our maker" The console cookie was quick to his feet trying to ease the situation.
They were all confuse, why were cookies talking?
"Please dont harm them" you begged as you pulled them closer to you, the cookies trying to calm you down.
They all looked at you, A lady signaling the knights to go forward.
Now here you are on a throne in your very own temple being prayed upon by thousands or even millions of people, each asking for your forgiveness.
The cookies were busy telling them off on how stupid they are, other than that everything was going well.
The kids were busy playing with each other, the ancients were discussing matters with the archons.
Herb and Clover have their own garden, and Sparkling had his own bar (he and diluc get along well). Lisa and Latte seem to get along as well, discussing about books and all, Albedo, Alchemist cookie and Espresso cookie were talking about alchemy stuff.
Everyone was getting along, but you couldnt stop the feeling of unease now everyone had their eyes on you. You tried asking Venti, or the Archon of the wind, on how to get back to your own world and he brushed you off saying;
"Ohoho why need to go back your grace, for Teyvat still needs your guidance, many wonderful things are still waiting for you here in your home!"
Its creepy, you tried asking help with the Archon of wisdom and she ignored you;
"your grace you still have knowledge to pass down to us, you cannot go back just yet"
Excuses were comming left and right, and the cookies are getting restless as well, they still had their own kingdom back at home but they couldnt just go back without you, plus they dont know how to go back.
"Home is here fellows, your grace is happy here so should you"
Why are you in a hurry to leave? Why not stay here in Teyvat, the world that you made with your very hands? Why choose them when you have us?
Tell me... What makes them so great?
The cookies tried to keep you safe, protecting you, but they were all picked up like toys and thrown in a cage. You were miserable, you were a bird of high divinity trapped in a golden cage without freedom.
You were their god first, so why do you treat them unfairly? It was only right to bring back their God, if you still hate them from before they'll make sure to earn your forgiveness, just stay with them okay?
Your eyes bore into theirs as you opened your mouth.
"this is why I left this godforsaken world"
Here's a Genshin x Cookie Run Self Aware idea
Genshin Imposter! Au but this time the cookies are here in tevyat to protect their baker
Any thoughts? Fanfic ideas?
I am so sick of "self-aware" fics that ignore the self aware aspect. If the reader is an actual god and not a player of whatever game you're writing for, THEN THAT'S A CULT AU. Why tf do you think it's called self-aware au??? I personally adore fics where characters think Player is a god and worship them, in fact, that's my favourite fic trope! It's just sad that most recent works for hsr and genshin tagged self aware don't actually feature self aware characters. Of course, this is not an attack on anyone who writes these fics, I just think those should be another category of fic altogether.
Little lost starchild Fear not the violent nights Nor the evanescent days A blade of shining jade Shall keep you from harm Underneath the stars Which you once called home Unwavering devotion Shackled by sin A silent plea many hear Though few will ever heed A curse born of a wretched world It stains a fated soul inky black An unwanted destiny Set for a beloved bond Watch the realm crumble to ash Mortal and god fall alike Little world eater Pay no heed to this world It has done you no favors Listen to our call Dearest light Coalesce the taint And devour it whole A false godlings command Means very little in our eyes Those who interfere Who dare to chain our children Shall be brought to ruin Take your treasure and run He will be safe with you Anything to keep you happy Our beloved starchild
@chococolte. I appear to be having issues with sending asks so I hope this format is alright. As you can tell, by the amount of poetry I've made, I am still very much enjoying your work.
Devoted followers
Shielded by steadfast earth
Cloaked by wandering winds
Guided by mournful lightning
Warded by boundless flora
Draped in shimmering ice
Crowned in flickering flames
Guarded in elegant dew
It is for their Holiness
That they unite
If their Grace demanded for their death
To rip open their chest
And hand deliver their heart
They would without hesitation
Displayed as glorious offerings
Nothing would please them more
Than the act of pleasing their God would be
If they were ordered to bare their soul
To let their Deity into their body
And puppet their every move
They would scramble to be the first
To be honored as a vessel
They would never deny their Creator
Their belongings
Their home
Their people
Nothing mattered
Not if their Beloved called for it
The Exalted One above all
Who were they to defy your will
When even the slightest praise
Fulfilled the very purpose
For which they were born for
Perhaps it is true
That they've fallen from grace
But they could never really care
Not when their Honored One holds them so
Blessing them with tender love
And keeping them ever close
@m1d-45. I've returned with another poem.
Forgive and forget
An interesting saying, is it not?
But can it really be applied here
When the scars remain
Of cruel deaths
And vicious hunts
When the memories linger
Plaguing the mind
Shattering rose tinted glasses
Can one be forgiven
Of such a heinous deed
Can one even forgive
Such a terrible sin
When one pledges loyalty
Faith to the very end
But it is the monsters who stay
Devoted and loving
Forgiveness is not for you
They will never forget
And they will never forgive
Not in the way that matters
You who stood once so tall
Blessed and beloved
Are nothing more than sinners
Fallen from grace
And it is before you
Your honored god sits
Surrounded by a court of monsters
Who wait on them
For every beck and call
Forgive and forget, was it?
Pitiful.
Mercy was not meant for you
You shall find no salvation here
Happy Valentine's Day. I bring fluff, kind of. Not really but it's not angst.
Favors came in starshowers
Purple and gold hues
Surrounded in blues
Sometimes it was luck
Others not so much
But nonetheless it came
Believers yearned
Nonbelievers pleaded
One for approval
The other for forgiveness
Waterfalls of stardust
Swirl and coalesce
To lay blessings of power
Upon all who find themselves
Underneath your banner
Proudly bearing your name
For all to witness
A short piece inspired by @hiraya-rawr's sagau works but mainly references her last resort fic.
Captured and cornered
The crowd calls for your head
It was a mere panicked decision
One you didn't even mean to make
Secrets spill from your lips
Ones you've discovered
Read and remembered
From the time before all this
Stories and promises
Ones that shouldn't be known
All splayed out before them
Like a dam burst open
You can not stop the flow
That tumbles out
It splatters on their faces
Staining them ink and shadow
Send ice through their veins
Freeze them in place
A mirror gaze of stars
That flicker in your blood
Blurring out your edges
Till the shimmer shine of nebulae
Are all that haloes your head
And envelopes your soul
Doesn't it hurt?
That all you're known for
Are stories blown out of proportion
And never truly for yourself?
You have survived
But can you pay the price?
A small piece inspired by @chocoenvy's playing god series but also their writing in general. I got an error when I attempted to send it in through an ask so I don't know if it got sent through or not so here it is in post form.
Pretty little songbird
With broken wings
A melody that shatters
A voice that no longer sings
Silenced by cruelty
A delusion of lies
Fracturing mirrors
Of spiderweb scars
It is not the light that shelters
Not the winds that follows
Or the earth that steadies
Nor the storms that soothes
It is the dark that hides
The ice that guards
Steadfast and strong
The wolves of winter prowl
Fervently devoted
Even steeped in madness
They are not blind
They see and they hear
They answer the call
With little hesitation
Ruin the foolish idols
Bring the heretics to their knees
No mercy left for the merciless
An eye for an eye
You have sown this sin
So you must reap your punishment
Atone for the crime that can not be forgiven
