[beginning] [previous part]

previously

Unknownst to you, your unspoken heart-to-heart doesn't go unnoticed. Your sudden appearance, the affiliation with Barbara, and her being able to pull off this deed.

The most interesting of affairs and quite bizarre too

Needless to say the Cavalry Captain is a curious man at heart.

---------------------------

Kaeya would have pursued you there and then, but the situation at hand called for his attention. Mondstadt's deaconess healed and here she was doing quite the opposite. Against slimes of course, but it just wasn't in her nature to be offensive. Maybe Barbara was secretly a fighter inside, but having the resolve to do anything and actually being able to it were two different things. The fact remains that she has no prior offensive conditioning.

If amature gets a hit in, you call it beginner's luck no issues but when that hit actually causes you to stagger back and cough up blood, that's when you wonder.

Getting hit? expected. But getting hurt?

how very intriguing.

With the docks still crowded, it was apparent that everyone was still processing the spectacle at hand. Barbara, who herself seemed dazed, busied herself by checking Arthur for any injuries and entertaining his gushing. It was Kaeya's emergence that caused the Knights to come back to their senses and address him.

"Sir, we were informed of slimes suddenly appearing on the docks, but as soon we arrived..."

"Disposed of by deaconess Barbara, I am aware. I suppose the knights can learn a thing or two from the Church, no?"

Slimes should not have been so close to the city in the first place.

"Since this has been taken care of, you all are to return to your previous positions and this time make sure that there no slimes approaching the city."

The execution didn't take long. Arthur too left soon after, excited to recall the happenings to his parents. This left the cavalry captain alone with the idol now turned fighter.

This this felt like a dream. She doesn't understand what came over her when she drew out her catalyst. This should not have worked, but it did. Aspirations turned into affirmations, and it felt... good. Barbara wasn't dissatisfied with her position as a healer, healing everyone that was her greatest ambition. But the clouds of doubt and dark whenever she looked upon Jean, who excelled either way.

You changed that. A spotless sky revealed itself underneath the taints of doubt. She will be sure to let you know that when she sees you again.

Clearing of a throat broke her chain of thoughts, the cavalry captain was looking at her curiously. The moment finally catches up, how is she to explain all of this?

"Captain Kaeya I-"

"That was most impressive, you plan on joining the Knights of Favonius anytime soon? Hm sister Barbara?"

Questions will be prompted, one way or another your name would be uttered. That is of course if she chooses to answer truthfully. Teyvat had its fair share of blessed, powerful individuals but nothing quite like you. Was she to let your existence be known to everyone? That wasn't her choice to make not after you just...

"I'm not here to pry answers out of you if that is what you were wondering... Mondstadt could always use more helping hands."

Then what does he-?

"But I do want something, a name if you will."

[color] hues and [color] strands, fixated in his memory. A name and then he would know what exactly you were.

"A name? Whose exactly?"

Maybe he isn't aware

"your dear friend"

... Well he is aware

Kaeya couldn't help but chuckle at her expressions, just what did you do to make her so concerned for yourself.

"I mean them no harm, just some conversation. They would like more friends here in Mondstadt no?"

Were your abilities a secret anyway? did you even want them to be a secret? Except for being a traveler, you didn't reveal much about yourself, well it's not like she asked in the first place. but then she didn't expect you to be...

What even were you?

"really I just wish to talk, they seem like quite an interesting person."

Nothing escapes the cavalry captain it seems. And indeed he leaves the dock with his objective complete. Syllables on his lips and curiosity in his being.

The brothers are more similar than they would like, different approaches but the same end goals.

[Name] just who are you?

-------------------------------

If anything you were misfortunate. Lost prayers to the scared winds? Skyward atlas? All you got from asking locals were rumors and maybe you heard someone call you a nerd underneath their breath. Like fuck you Nimrod we'll see who the nerd is when you get her to one-shot the Regisvine.

The pursuit of any good catalyst has been futile so far and there weren't many options in the first place. As a last-ditch effort, you make your way towards Marjorie. Treasures obtained from her father's adventures and her father being Cyrus 'Branch master' of the adventure's guild. If you didn't find any clues here, you might as well give up the venture entirely.

Watching you approach she greets you.

"Welcome. Every treasure here is unique, so we don't negotiate on the price, nor do we give refunds."

No refunds? well, that is reassuring.

"I just wanted to inquire about something... a notebook if you will. it's quite old."

Better to start up slow... baby steps yes

"It was called the Widsith, a notebook that was shared between the members of the Wanderers Troupe... have you heard about it? Like anything at all?"

She stops to think for a while, you halfheartedly expect another dead end.

"hmm....maybe. Not many people come up asking for actual historical trinkets, are you a historian or researcher of sorts?"

"well um...yeah I suppose you could call me a history buff of sorts but do you know anything of it?" please say yes.

"I do come across old books of sorts quite often, the one you just described... I did receive new items from some old ruins. i could check and let you know."

Finally some progress

"But it might take a while"

"o-oh yes, yes of course whenever you get it, just let me know."

You left her shop after giving her your name and deciding on a future meeting. Widsith! you almost had it! well, there was a chance that it might not be the thing itself but you were going to be optimistic. Surely the world won't be this cruel, by letting an entire day of wandering around go to waste. Whatever the end result, you were in high spirits now.

A little further was the Adventure's guild headquarters. you could ask Katheryne as well and maybe continue a winning streak.

You wait as she converses with the other adventurers. Remunerating them for completing their commissions, none of which you could recognize.

Maybe Bennet and Fischel were already done for the day.

Seeing her getting free you immediately approach her.

"...Rebooting..."

"you know you really should stop saying that. It's kinda creepy." you start with absolutely no filter.

Blue meets [color] as she turns to address you, expression unchanging but she does smile when she spots you.

"Ad Astra abyssosque [player name]" (ur genshin name FYI)

You don't do that okay, you do not pull shit like this on someone and make them question everything.

"How the fuck do you know that?"

*crawls out of box of shame*

No, I have not forgotten this blog ;-; and I'm not dead (unfortunate but I'll just have to deal with it )

End of the year, brain juice is low and I'm a bit behind my school work. Oof I've been trying to squeeze in as many classes as I can before the year ends, so yeah the struggle is real. I might have to put that Diluc soulmate isekai work on hold for a while [sorry bird anon :(].

Moving on from the sad talk

Lmao kaeya bby you and Diluc r wasting time, trying to research the player. But I suppose, given their nature, they would 100% do a background check. Mondstadt's security is at hand

*remembering that got Venti got folded in front of HIS OWN cathedral*

Yeah, some security they have. Also, I really hope Kaeya wasn't OOC ;-; peacock man is hard to write, for me at least

oh before I forget Kaeya Mains we are going with a cryo build here most probably, so I should go with a skyward blade right? recommend mondstadt weapons only pls

315 days with master diluc

This is too cute.

ギョーザ

unrequited.

summary: zhongli, xiao, albedo and childe are in love with you, even if you don’t feel the same.

notes: angst, headcanons, .7k words

Zhongli

This is just another burden for him to bear.

You are the enduring beauty of humanity. When Zhongli sees you, he thinks this is what it has all been for: the millennia of loss, of fallen friends and foes alike, the never ending struggle. When he sees your bright smile as you wander the peaceful land he wrought with his own hands, perhaps it has all been worth it after all.

He is well acquainted with desire after all these years, but it is still an unexpected flower that blooms in your presence. You listen to him attentively, accompany him as he walks around Liyue, sigh as you bring out your wallet when he’s short on Mora. 

If he were to kiss you, how would you react? If he were to stroke your cheek, pull you into his arms, tell you that he loves you… Zhongli understands that this is a futile train of thought. There is no room in your life for him beyond your current relationship.

He is a relic of the past. Zhongli has seen too much, lived for too long: the only thing he can hope for is that you will keep him alive in your memories.
