THEMES. fluff!

NOTES. this is actually based on a request that was sent by @soft-simp-ichigo so thank you very much! i also plan on doing a oneshot with this one soon so do expect that<3 guess who it will be for? hehehehe it’s a secret for now! also, thanks so much for 3.5k aaaa you guys are the best!<333

DO YOU LIKE MY CONTENT? SEND ME A TIP HERE!

ALBEDO either was familiar with what it was or he already has knowledge about your native language because he took the time to learn it beforehand. After hearing you call him that one time, it certainly perked his attention and sensing that you haven’t realized what you did, he smiles to his own and wills to call you the same next time.

“Did I say it correctly? I just assumed it was what it meant, please tell me if I misunderstood it.”

CHILDE will probably ask you about it, which in turn became the reason why you called him with the endearment sooner than later in the relationship. He’s rather giddy whenever you call him with it, a grin curving on his lips in almost an instant, leaning to press a chaste kiss on your cheek and sending a wink at you. The audacity of this man.

“Call me that every time, yeah? Do you want me to do the same?”

DILUC wasn’t even aware you were multilingual until you told him you were. He didn’t particularly care—or more like minded, for the matter. Whatever you call him with, he’s more than pleased. However, you would not be able to miss how he stops and freezes for a couple of seconds when you explain to him what you just called him with.

With a smile, he kisses your forehead and whispers a “Thank you,” and calls you just the same.

GOROU is quite attentive, but with his busyness and things he had to do, he may not be able to give you much attention that he wanted. You had probably taken him off-guard when he got home and he was embracing you, hearing you call him such an unusual greeting that you probably saw or felt his ears twitch afterwards.

“Hm?” he pulls away slightly, looking you in the eye, “What… did you call me, honey?” he carefully inquired, still unsure if he heard you correctly or not. When you explained to him what it meant, he’ll get heavily flustered, pausing a while before he looks up with a smile and asks, “Again?”

KAEYA knows a lot of things and he probably knows a few words that you know of. He may even be the first to call you the endearment to catch you by surprise. He’ll chuckle at your embarrassed state, asking how he knew about it, to which he replies, “So my guess is correct, then? Call me with it first before I explain how.”

KAZUHA is definitely the type who had learned your native language early on and courted you with a poem with such words. That’s why when you call him with the endearment, he inwardly smiles—oh, his smiles are one of the most difficult things to figure out. And what does he do?

He pretends he doesn’t know about it.

“What did you called me, dove?” he had you on one of his knees, his eyes focused on your face as you find it hard to look him in the eye with the intense gaze he had on. After explaining to him, he simply pecks you on the cheeks and teases you briefly by calling you the same.

“Oh, you liked that? Should I start referring to you as such? I could if you would.”

SCARAMOUCHE does not know. Don’t expect him to when you don’t tell him first, so he’s one of those who are fun to prank with if you plan to call him with an endearment you wanted to call him to. He notices it immediately; brow raising, eyes darting towards your form, “What’d you call me?” his tone was harsh as usual but you can hear how it faltered despite its strong start. He may not have knowledge about it yet but he had a feeling that it was something that you have up your sleeve just to tease him.

When you explained to him about it, he scoffed but there was a small smirk on his face, pretending that he was busy with his paperworks but he felt the flutters he couldn’t stop even with his own abilities churn in his insides.

Oh the things you do to him.

THOMA, as also the people of the town, he might have hints of your language but he’s not quite sure what they meant so he’s just guessing while he accidentally let it slip out one time.

“I mean, uhm, did I use it correctly, perhaps…?” he awkwardly laughs, only to hear you giggle.

“Wait, I got it wrong, didn't I? Ugh, Ayato and the others told me about it and-Oh I was right?” he grins, “Well then, what do you say? Let’s go on a date tomorrow night, alright?”

VENTI had a hunch all this time and would definitely act like he knew it. Keyword: act.

“Of course I know what that meant!” he huffs his chest proudly; chin up, arms crossed, “It meant… an endearment, right? Just like how I call you Windblume!”

Apparently, he looked overjoyed when you revealed that he got it correctly that it was fairly obvious that he originally had no idea what it was.

“What? Where’s my congratulations kiss? I told you I got it right!”

XIAO doesn’t have a clue at all. If you attempt to call him with the special endearment, he’d only look confused and may not even question you especially if you said it in the morning. If at the evening, however, when he’s not that much busy defeating demons, he will actually pay more attention to it than the latter situation.

“You called me that earlier,” he says, “what… does it mean?”

Actually, he had a feeling what it already meant earlier but he did not want to deal such “unnecessary thoughts” even if he knew it bugged his mind most of the day. He thought that you wouldn’t tease him if he questioned you about it, only to prove that he was wrong.

“What do you mean-“ he scoffs, turning away to hide the flush on his cheeks, “I… I don’t mind it-It doesn't mean I like-I mean…” he shuts his lips and sighs, “I’m only letting you off this once.”

But let’s just say even if it was with the endearment while he’s away, he still comes in an instant when you call.

ZHONGLI is quite difficult to read. You don’t know if he actually knows what it meant or if he was pretending like he didn’t know it just to say that you had caught him off guard.

“I really didn’t have any knowledge about it, dearest,” he chuckles lightly, brushing his knuckles on your cheek when he sees the pout on your lips.

“But you didn’t look surprised at all!”

“Was I?” he pauses, “It might have been not obvious, but believe me when I say that you had caught me, love,” he says before catching your lips and pecking it softly.

He really doesn’t know about it hahahaha

Genshin boys x Disneyland

Synopsis: A day at Disneyland Paris with the characters of genshin impact.

Style: Headcanons, Female reader, cute, fluffy, date night, Disneyland Paris park, romantic relationship, modern life.

Alert: Very very slight NSFW mention for some, nothing shocking.

Characters: Diluc, Zhongli, Kaeya, Xiao, Venti, Albedo, Childe, Razor, Scaramouche, Dainsleif, Aether, Thoma.

Note: I went to Disneyland Paris yesterday. Don't ask me why I'm doing this... I'm inspired by Disneyland Paris, because I've never done the other parks in the rest of the world. I was going to do Xingqiu, Xangyun and Bennett, but I can't take it anymore!

Masterlist

Projects in progress and to come

Diluc

Attraction: He is not the type to like amusement parks... If there was one attraction he would enjoy, it would be the Thunder Mesa Riverboat Landing. However, he still enjoyed the evening parade only because he could hold you close to him while you fidgeted to the music.

Off the rides: This is one of the few times you'll see him tie his hair in a bun. In the park, Diluc is very calm, he doesn't run around like you do and just follows your lead. Throughout the day, he will hold your hand in his and gallantly carry your bag. He'll let you store to your heart's content and he'll even allow you to put a headband in his hair so that you can take a picture of the two of you, only condition, you don't post it on social networks. (He thinks he is ridiculous with his Mickey ears, yet he is so cute!). He suggests that you go to Disney Village to rest and have a coffee. Diluc will hold you lovingly in his arms, your head resting on his chest and his hand in your hair, he will let you sleep a little if you are tired. As far as food is concerned, he will not go to a fast food restaurant. He will reserve the best table at Walt's - an American restaurant. You deserve the best.

In line: Even though Diluc is not comfortable with public displays of affection, he will let you rest your head on his chest while he puts his chin on the top of your head and his lips meet it. He'll cuddle you discreetly by burying his hands under your coat. If it's cold, he'll put your hand in the pocket of his long coat, share one of his gloves with you and keep you close to him for warmth.

Conclusion: Clearly, Diluc is not a fan of amusement parks. It's not that he doesn't like it, it's just not his thing. He'll go wherever you want to go, as long as it makes you happy and he knows you're happy, he'll obediently follow you and do all the attractions you want to do (yes, even it's a small world). Beware, this boy is deceitful. He will buy you anything that makes your eyes shine with envy! (stuffed animals, mugs, headbands...).

Since you wanted to go to Disneyland so badly, Diluc decided to give you an extra gift by booking a room at Disney's Hotel New York (and since you had so much fun in the park, Diluc will have fun in bed with you).

Zhongli

Attraction: Like Diluc, Zhongli has no favorite attraction. He's willing to do anything you want without complaint, ranging from Space Mountain to Ratatouille. But his favorite thing to do is to watch the craftsmen working on the creation of crystal figurines in the stores. He also finds the stained glass windows in the castle beautiful.

Outside the rides: Zhongli would follow you anywhere. He would stand by your side, always with that natural elegance he exudes. He draws eyes to himself, but don't be jealous, he only has eyes for you. He willingly lets you wrap your arm around him. In stores, Zhongli is more open than Diluc. He will allow you to try on accessories with undisguised amusement, as well as clothes, such as scarves or jackets. Zhongli is not very tech-savvy and will let you take as many pictures as you want with your smartphone and you can even post them on your instagram account. However, he will be in total agreement with Diluc: No Fast Food! He will take you to a fancy restaurant (if he thought to make a reservation before) or to this Italian restaurant in Disney Village. A short tea break during the day.

In line: Zhongli keeps you close to him, his hand on your hip while you discuss everything. Kiss your forehead from time to time. If it's cold, Zhongli will share his long scarf with you and as soon as the queue stops moving, he will take you in his arms to warm you up.

Conclusion: You both had a great day. Zhongli is pretty open about everything, and he'll go try out all the attractions with you before telling you what he liked and didn't like. At the end of the day, you give him a small crystal statuette of the castle. He'll be so happy with your gift that it was worth spending a little more than he expected today. He'll know how to thank you properly when you're both home alone...

Kaeya

Attraction: Pirates of the carabean! He loved the attraction so much that he will ask you to do it again and again until you tell him to stop. Will sing the song all day until he hears the It's a small world song...

Off the rides: He will either hold your hand tightly while you are walking or he will hold your waist and hold you close. As soon as you take a break on a bench or lean against a wall, he will take the opportunity to claim your lips with passion. Kaeya loved Pirates of the Carabean so much, he'll buy an eye patch and a pirate hat for you both in the store just outside the ride. You'll go take pictures at Captain Hook's boat. May you rest in peace if you meet Captain Hook in the park! Kaeya is definitely the one to sing Disney songs with you, he loves Hakuna Matata. You don't know which of you is more childish, him and his pirate hat or you and your stuffed animals? He'll take you to eat at Captain Jack's, the pirate restaurant he spotted in the attraction.

In line: Kaeya is very tactile, he won't mind hugging and kissing you openly in front of others. Moreover, he is very talkative, so you will not see the time passing with him. Kaeya can handle the cold very well and he will lend you his coat to warm you up, but as soon as he can, he will take you in his arms to share his warmth with you.

Conclusion: The day was very fun with Kaeya. You had a lot of laughs and prayed a lot of pictures on your phones, even if Kaeya often embarrassed you with his pirate costume and his songs. He is ready to come back with you as many times as you want! Kaeya will give you a couple of mugs featuring Lady and the Tramp.

Xiao

Attraction: He doesn't like anything... He is just there to please you... (and because you insisted so much that he was forced to give in).

Will still ask you to go back to The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror... Falling into the void is quite exhilarating and feeling stuck to it is even more so.

Outside of the rides: Xiao is silent and cold during most of the day. He lets you hold his arm and stick to him (you know he loves it even if he doesn't tell you). When you're in the stores, Xiao will prefer to wait for you outside. He knows that you'll make him try on embarrassing things if he goes with you. If you look closely, you will see a little smile forming on his lips when you look at the store windows with stars in your eyes. When it comes to food, he would prefer you to bring back something you cooked yourself. Xiao is quite picky about food, he only likes your dishes.

In line: Again, he would be quite quiet and probably engrossed in his phone. He will hold your hand and absentmindedly caress your skin with his thumb. You will obviously have his full attention if you start a discussion with him. If you are cold, Xiao will wrap his scarf around your neck and put his cap on your head. Like Diluc, your hand will be in his pocket with his.

Conclusion: Despite the fact that Xiao seemed grumpy most of the day, he actually had a good time with you. He got to see your happy smile and that's what matters most to him. Xiao would be willing to go through the Disneyland ordeal again just to see your radiant face again. Go back to Disneyland at Christmas, you'll see the magic in his eyes. At the end of the day, you give him a Mickey and Minnie key chain that splits in two (you keep Minnie's and he takes Mickey's).

Venti

Attraction: Wow, there are so many that he liked that it would be hard for him to choose. Maybe Mad Hatter's Tea Cups is the one where he had the best time with you. You were spinning the cups so fast, you couldn't stand on your feet when you came out.

Outside the rides: Venti runs around with you. He holds your hand in his, takes pictures wherever there are Halloween decorations and posts them on social media. When he sees actors in costume, he'll insist that you take a picture with them. He has a soft spot for Chip and Dale. He will let you take a break on one of the benches that are all over the park while he goes to get you a pancake and a hot chocolate. He will store with you and marvel at all the stuffed animals! Literally falls in love with the Disney mascot plush collection. For food, Venti is not picky. BUT, there is this bar restaurant in Disney Village that also serves alcohol, so he will take you there to eat.

In line: Venti is very talkative and laughing, you don't get bored with him. He likes to take selfies with you. He always keeps your hand in his, and when the queue stays a while without moving, he will hug you from behind and kiss your neck. It's also a great way for him to warm you up when you're cold.

Conclusion: Venti has made you run around so much that at the end of the day, you are completely out of shape. Nevertheless, you had a great time with him and to make up for it, he'll let you sleep on his shoulder once in transportation. Look tenderly at the keychain that contains a picture of you two that he bought at the exit of Flying Carpets Overs Agrabah.

Albedo

Attraction: Albedo found Lancelot's Carousel very enjoyable and relaxing. He prefers the quiet rides to the loud or thrilling ones. Plus, he was able to hold your hand tenderly throughout the ride. He couldn't resist taking a picture of you on your horse.

Outside of the rides: Very calm and composed, he will let you lead him around the park while holding your hand. You offer him to take pictures near the Halloween decorations or a simple romantic selfie. Albedo can't help but smile when you jump up and down and see one of your favorite characters walking around the park. He suggests you go up to him and have your picture taken. When you take him shopping, he'll be particularly interested in notepads and sketchbooks, especially Halloween-themed ones. He'll buy you a Lion King headband, he thinks you look really cute with that accessory. You stop from time to time on a bench to rest, Albedo takes the opportunity to draw you. For the food, it is him who cooked everything. The food has been carefully stored in bento boxes. He will suggest you to go to the Chalet de la Marionnette to warm them up and eat there.

In line: Albedo always brings a book with him, and today is no exception. He will take advantage of the wait to continue his reading and will even offer you to read with him. Your arms will be intertwined with each other while your head is resting on his shoulder and your eyes are focused on reading. If it's cold, Albedo will pull a hand warmer he had planned from his bag and put it in his pocket with your hand. He will kiss the tips of your ears reddened by the cold.

Conclusion: A sweet and invigorating day. Appointments with Albedo are always exquisite and relaxing experiences. To thank him for the day, you bought him the notebook he was ogling earlier (the cover features Disney villains like the Evil Queen, Ursula and Maleficent). The smile he gives you in return and so adorable, you want to immortalize this day with a selfie, you with your lion ears and him, his new notebook.

Kazuha

Attraction: Kazuha found the Toy Soldiers Parachute Drop attraction to be very fun. He enjoys the view once the parachutes reach the top of the attraction and when they come down, he grabs your hand and laughs.

Off the rides: Always smiling and warm, he'll hold your hand all the time with your fingers intertwined together. He loves watching parades and shows with you. It's a really relaxing activity that also allows him to cuddle you quietly. He'll have fun with you discovering the little secrets scattered around the park, like those famous Mickey's hidden all over Disneyland. When you both take a break, Kazuha will make you sit on his lap. He will put his head on your shoulder while you will lean on his. He will let you store quietly, Kazuha is not materialistic, so he is not interested in unnecessary purchases. However, he likes to see the wonder in your eyes when an object fascinates you, like this pin with the effigy of Bambi. For your meal, Kazuha will have prepared a Japanese bento. He likes simple and healthy food. He will even have provided an isothermal bottle with matcha tea inside.

In line: Kazuha will watch with you that Japanese anime you both like. He will offer you to hold your smartphone so you don't tire your arm while his other hand will be on your lower back. If you are freezing because of the wind, Kazuha will wrap you in his coat as soon as he can and blow warm air on your hands.

Conclusion: Even if you couldn't do a lot of attractions because of the crowd, you still found the day very fun, especially this part of the secret hunt! Kazuha had to finish his day with his hair loose, the wind having completely destroyed his hairstyle. You're not complaining, you've always found it cute like this.

Childe/Ajax

Attraction: Buzz Lightyeart Laser Blast is probably the best attraction for Ajax! He loves a challenge and competition and will do anything to get a better score than you!

Outside of the rides: Ajax will suggest a walk around the park to relax after an already emotional morning. He will take you to the restaurant of the hotel he has booked, the Yacht Club, to have a meal together. Like Kaeya, Ajax is very physical, so he will be glued to you all the time. His hand will never let go of yours and when he does, it's only to carry you on his shoulders and hear you laugh. He will protect you from the crowd by using his body as a shield. He offers you to go shopping and he literally falls in love with these tiaras made of real gems. Discreetly, he will buy one to give it to you later! If you want to rest, he'll suggest that you go back to Disney's Newport Bay Club Hotel for a short nap or just to massage your legs. Ajax loves to take pictures with you, his large size and long arms are perfect for couple selfies! He will want to watch the fireworks with you in his arms.

In line: He keeps you close and will threaten anyone who shoves you with a glare. He likes to look at the pictures you took together. Like Zhongli, Ajax wears long scarves that he will share with you in case of cold. He will cover you with his arms and he will shower you with kisses to warm you up.

Conclusion: You've both had a great time during your stay at Disneyland, and you know it's not over, because Ajax has booked the hotel for three nights! You end the day feeling completely exhausted, and when Ajax gives you the tiara he bought earlier in the day, your once-tired eyes begin to glow with wonder. Ajax hopes you still have enough energy to continue the evening in your hotel room...

Razor

Attraction: Razor doesn't like crowds or loud noises, so he really enjoyed The Robinsons' Cabin for its calm and natural atmosphere.

Off the rides: Razor is a bit of a dreamer and a hardy boy, he can walk for a long time without getting tired. But when he sees the fatigue on your face, he will take your hand in his and take you to the Discovery Arcade to rest. He likes the old-fashioned atmosphere of the place as well as the calmness that reigns there. On top of that, it's warm, so you can get some color back into your cheeks. He will fetch you a coffee, a tea or a hot chocolate according to your desires. His head will rest on your thighs while you sip your drink. When you walk down the avenues of Disneyland, Razor will just walk beside you. If you want to hold his hand, take it directly, he will do so obediently, you can even feel a slight pressure from his hand. When it comes to food, Razor is not picky. He loves meat and will be very happy with a hamburger and fries!

In line: Again, if you want to hold his hand, take it yourself, he doesn't have that automatic response (although he loves to feel your touch). Once he holds your hand, he won't let go until you enter the attraction. Occasionally you may kiss his knuckles to get his attention. He hates to see you cold, so he will pass you his gloves and keep you against him, his coat wide open to take refuge inside and warm you up.

Conclusion: A calm and relaxed day. You gave Razor a Halloween-themed Mickey ears headband, and you were happy to see that he kept it on all day. He promises you that you'll both come back and enjoy the Christmas decorations!

Scaramouche

Attraction: The word "adored" is not strong enough to demonstrate how he felt in Phamtom Manor. It wasn't even the attraction itself that he loved, but rather the fact that you stuck to him the whole way with a pleading, terrified face. He'll even go so far as to scare you a little more by blindly touching you here and there.

Outside of the rides: Scaramouche hates the crowd, or rather, he hates people! As a result, you'll find yourself with a grumpy little friend by your side. Take his hand, stroke it and he'll relax right away. Like Diluc, Scaramouche will have reserved a table at Walt's - an American restaurant. There is no way he will eat in a fast food restaurant. You will be shocked to see that there is absolutely nobody in the restaurant. It's not surprising really, since Scaramouche has reserved the whole restaurant in his name so he doesn't have to put up with all the idiots in the park any longer. He will reluctantly agree to accompany you in the stores, just to check that no man takes advantage of his absence to hit on you. When he comes across the Disney villain pins, he can't help but buy them, he especially loves the Maleficent ones. He is a possessive man, so don't be surprised to feel his hand on you wherever you are.

In line: You've found a simple and effective way to keep him calm, you stroke his hair and face tenderly to keep him focused on you. Since you're so gentle with him, he'll do the same by taking your hand to kiss it. You won't get cold with the heavy coat he bought you! But he will still keep you close to him under the pretext of keeping you a little warmer.

Conclusion: Even if he has been in a bad mood all day, you are still glad you went out with him. Contrary to Childe or Diluc, it is out of question that he stays longer in this park, if he came here, it is only to please you!

Dainsleif

Attraction: He had a good time in Alice's curious labyrinth. He couldn't help but get into your game of hide and seek, after all, the maze lends itself well to that.

Outside of the rides: Dainsleif is a lot like Diluc except for a few details, he's not shy about showing his affection for you in public. Expect tender gestures often, like a kiss on the lips or his hand caressing your loins. The aura around Dains calms and soothes you, which is why you'll fall asleep quickly when he suggests you rest on a bench with your head on his shoulder. He will caress your thighs and hands while you sleep. He will go shopping with you, but will not buy anything. He's not interested in the Disney world, he's only there because you asked him to be. Like many of the boys here, he doesn't like fast food, so he'll have prepared a meal the night before that you'll heat up in a microwave. Dainsleif stubbornly thinks that he is not photogenic, so he refuses to be photographed, but he will be happy to immortalize you wherever you want.

In line: His hand lazily caresses your waist while he looks at the scenery of the attraction or simply his phone. Occasionally, he'll lean over to you to remove a strand of hair from your face before kissing you. He talks to you a lot. He is very educated and cultured, so you can talk about anything with him. Dainsleif keeps you so close to him that it is difficult for you to feel the sting of cold.

Conclusion: You spend a pleasant day in his company. When it's all over, he'll suggest you go rest in the car before driving home. A little cuddle inside, he will ask you if you had a good day. If you tell him yes, he'll be very happy, after all, your happiness is his.

Aether

Attraction: Oh my God, he loved Space Mountain so much! He'll ask you if you feel like taking another ride with him. If so, he'll be so happy, he'll do anything you want after that.

Besides the rides: Aether is such a sweet and endearing boy. His hand is always hanging on yours. As soon as he sees something interesting, like a character you like or a prop you might like, he calls your name, pointing to what he found before he hurriedly pulls you towards the source of his interest. He'll suggest you go to Casey's Corner for a hot dog. When he sees that you're getting tired, Aether will suggest that you head to Disney Village to go to Starbuck's. He'll have you sit in a vacant chair and then go order your drinks. He will take the opportunity to have a donut with your mocha and his tea. He keeps you close to him to support your head. If you fall asleep, he will occupy his time looking at the pictures he took during the day. He will even put one of you in the background. Aether will be very cuddly and affectionate with you. He loves to store, is a Disney fan and is happy to have someone around who loves it as much as he does.

In line: He will let you play with his hair, he loves to feel your hands in it. To pass the time, he'll put on a playlist of Disney songs for you to sing together. If you're cold, Aether will take your hands in his to warm them with the warm breath of his throat.

Conclusion: You both had a great time. Aether is so glad he got to go on this outing with you! He will buy some souvenirs, specifically keychains. He'll pick up a couple keychains for the two of you with Stitch and Angel, and he'll pick up another one for his twin sister.

Thoma

Attraction: He loved doing Peter Pan's Flight. The attraction is so good! Especially the part where you fly over the city of London. He will sing "following the leader" as you exit the ride.

Outside of the rides: Thoma is very loving and engaging. He will always look out for your well-being and keep an eye on you so you don't get lost. He will hold your hand if there are people in the park. While you're on your way to a new attraction, Thoma will listen to you tell stories about Disney or sing the words to the songs that are playing over the speakers. From time to time, he will bring your hand to his lips to kiss it. If you are tired, he will take you to a warm place to rest, like Discovery Arcade. He'll look for a free bench to sit on and then go order coffee and tea for you and him. His hand will be on your hips to pull you closer to him while you sip your drink. He will cover your face with kisses, both to tease you, but also because he needs your touch. For lunch, he has prepared some Onigiris for you with a different flavor in each. Thoma will be happy to buy you a piece of jewelry from Harrington's Fine China & Porcelains. He will take a necklace with a key-shaped locket.

In line: He always keeps you close, his hand on your hips and in your pants pocket. He loves this closeness and always takes advantage of it to steal a kiss. His presence is so warm and comforting that you don't feel the biting cold of autumn on your skin.

Conclusion: He will suggest, before leaving, to watch the fireworks. The day was beautiful, you are so happy that you could spend it with him. He has spoiled you with his sweetness and kindness. Even if you are exhausted, you won't be able to resist laying him down on the bed when you get home.

𓂅 summary: as populer streamers in the gaming community, how do the genshin boys act in their games?

𓂅 note: this just popped up in my head and i really wanted to write it down. these hcs are formatted and written a lil differently since i was too tired to write hcs separately for all the characters. also there's literally nothing in this fic aside from crack so i hope this makes you laugh or you enjoy this in some type of way LMFAO. HAVE A GOOD DAY YALL <3

the lowkey toxic ones who taunt or shit talk you in party voice chat when you miss a kill or fail to clutch. they're the ones who sound so cocky and confident despite doing worse or just a tiny bit better than you. he loves affectionately bullying you but god bless and good luck to whoever else tries to attack you.

scaramouche, kaeya, childe, itto

the pros who don't talk a lot in party voice chat. they carry you throughout the game and prefer to type in chat instead. when they've had enough, the most they'll speak is to irritatedly ask you "what were you thinking?" when you do something off. 

xiao, albedo, diluc

the nice people <33 spreads the best vibes around the team no matter how bad or how good you're playing. this person is everyone's personal hype man. always goes "nice try (y/n), you'll get them next time!" or "good game everyone!".

thoma, itto, venti

the quiet ones who are okay at the game. very calm, collected, and respectful whenever they're playing with anyone. they always have your back and it's a very peaceful experience to get to play with someone like them.

kazuha, xiao, albedo, diluc, dainsleif

the trolls who do the dumbest shit because they either just feel like it or they wanna get on your nerves 💀.

venti, childe, kaeya

ZHONGLI didn’t mind at all, no matter if you told him or not. Actually, you could tell him everything because he trusted you as much as you probably do the same to him. To him, trust is what builds a connection, a relationship.

“Someone wrote me a letter.” 

“Oh? What is it?” 

“It’s a love confession,” you chuckled, reading the letter to yourself in front of him, of course, without really disclosing even a single bit of its content. Tucking it then behind you, you turn to him with an awkward smile, “I hope I could politely decline them but… seeing that it is an anonymous letter, I couldn’t really do anything else unelss they show up.” 

Sensing your frustration, he reaches out his hand to yours, gingerly rubbing your skin with his thumb, “It will work out, my love, there’s no need to worry. If you need me, I’ll be here to help.” 

┌───────── ·  ·  ·  · ꒰⚘݄꒱₊

XIAO refuses to speak of it. His feelings are rather… complicated, if he could confess it, that is. As expected, he doesn’t really show any other expression on his facade except annoyance, which is really usual for him. But the reason for this, however, is because he doesn’t know what to react at all.

Genshin Boys and How They Would Hold You

featuring: Kaeya, Diluc, Albedo, Childe, Zhongli, Xiao, Kazuha, Venti, Thoma

[Genshin Masterlist]

long overdue for me to write smth for yall omg 😭 i kinda took an unscheduled mini break from writing bc I'd managed to burn myself out a lil lmao

once again the way i wrote these rly changes as u go down but I thought the concept was cute so 😩 also peep me finally trying to write smth for thoma after wanting to for weeks now 🤩

Kaeya would embrace you often, but rarely tightly. Casual hugs and frequent pecks to the cheek are common with him, but only when you really manage to get to know him and only if he ever shows you how emotionally vulnerable he can be will he ever hold you tight. If you reach that threshold in your relationship, he will wrap his arms around you and softly declare that he never wants to let you go again.

Diluc is far less frequent with the way he holds you, by which he simply chooses to do so exclusively from the comfort of behind closed doors. When you're alone together, expect to be held as if you're the most precious thing in the world, warm and tender as he wants nothing more than to enjoy spending time with you. His hugs are soothing, enough to comfort you even when you feel inconsolable.

When you're embraced by Albedo, expect to get a noseful of chemical scent. He almost always smells strongly of whatever scientific experiment he has been enacting last. However, his hugs are tight and sincere. He holds you like he means it, like he's trying to squeeze every last drop of whatever emotion he's feeling at the time out into it.

Childe would hold you like he couldn't ever let go of you. His embraces are enthusiastic and full of passion, quite literally sweeping you off your feet if it has been a particularly long time since you last saw him, barrelling into you and knocking the breath from your lungs. With his frequent travelling, often he will come back home to you and just spend an entire evening holding you in his arms to make up for all the time with you he has missed.

Zhongli's embraces are all-encompassing, but not suffocating. They're warm, usually accompanied by a gentle kiss to the top of your head. More often than not, you find yourself in his arms particularly at the end of rather long days, the simple action completely eradicating any stresses you had had to endure. They're comfortable enough to have you falling asleep wherever it happens, sometimes even catching yourself close to dozing off when you're stood up.

Xiao rarely holds you at all. Not because he doesn't want to, but instead because he feels like something bad will happen to you if he does. If you do manage to convince him otherwise, to reassure him that you'll be completely fine, he holds you delicately- as if you're made of glass. Any wrong move and he thinks you'll shatter. You promise him that you won't and his arms wrap the tiniest bit tighter.

When you're held by Kazuha, it's tender but fleeting. As if he can't bring himself to hold onto you for longer than a few moments. Approach him about it and he'll go quiet, softly explaining that even if he holds you forever he's worried you'll still end up slipping out of his grasp. You find, however, under cover of night, he holds you tighter. When he thinks you're asleep, he will wrap his arms around you and stay like that for the entire night.

Venti embraces you often, no matter the occasion. It's his favourite way of showing affection and with you at the receiving end it happens pretty much all the time. It'll be rare to not find him by your side, drawing you close to him, even with something as simple as keeping his arm draped around you. One of his favourite ways to hold you is with you nestled in his lap as he places his head in the dip between your neck and shoulder.

The way that Thoma embraces you somehow always manages to leave you breathless. It isn't often that you get to, usually just the first few moments of seeing one another again after time apart, but he scoops you into his arms in such an overwhelmingly passionate manner. You swear every time you're able to feel just how much he loves you with those welcoming hugs alone. If your time apart has been especially fraught with concern, those simple hugs manage to make it feel like everything is going to be alright again.

#are you leaving? are you leaving me?

—how would they react if you stormed off after an argument (for the first time) and they thought you were leaving them for good? 

CHARACTERS. Aether, Albedo, Ayato, Childe, Cyno, Dainsleif, Diluc, Gorou Heizou, Itto, Kaeya, Kazuha, Scaramouche, Thoma, Venti, Xiao, Zhongli; gn! Raader

THEMES. Angst; Hurt (no or with) comfort; can be reversed comfort too; has varying intensities so there are others that has fluff/crack (im looking at you heizou and kazu)

WARNINGS. may emphasize venti’s drinking on his part 

NOTES. I was supposed to post another one but I really can’t stand not answering this request so good luck with two consecutive angst everyone~ I’ll post the other one next week! 

ZHONGLI would look rather calm, no matter how big the argument was. He normally would not let the argument go further, but today was rather stressful, even for someone like him. With all the arguments at work and also to those who would ask for his help even when he was just on his way home, and now, everything piled up and he… maybe he needed a bit of rest. 

“Let us discuss this tomorrow, beloved, I-”

However, all he heard was the sound of the doors closing, and there was no sight of you in the room.  

He sighs heavily, thinking that you probably had only gone out of the room to calm down. Of course, he only realized he was the only one in the house when he woke up and there’s still not a sight of you beside him. Startled, he stood up and found himself scavenging the entire house—could you have left him?—this thought was all in his mind but as soon as he turned to the living room, there you were, sleeping so peacefully on the couch. He heaves out a sigh immediately, kneeling in front of you, taking your hands to his and bringing them to his lips. He had never in this life felt so anxious—it had been awhile, he thinks, but maybe this was more…-

“Zhongli?” He heard you call for his name by then, but before you could fully comprehend what was happening, he was hushing at you, whispering so slowly to not awaken you any further. 

“There’s no need to wake, my love.” It’s going to be alright. 

┌───────── ·  ·  ·  · ꒰⚘݄꒱₊

XIAO and you had been arguing for the whole week. Actually, he only showed up today after being gone for three straight days. Three! And now he expects you to pretend that everything is okay?

#do they look good on me?

—their reaction when they see you wearing tight leggings 

CHARACTERS. Aether, Albedo, Ayato, Childe, Diluc, Gorou, Kaeya, Kazuha, Scaramouche, Thoma, Venti, Xiao, Zhongli; gn! Reader

THEMES. it was mentioned to be a prank. implied suggestive (not really much). fluff. body positivity!!! no implied body type. more crack than suggestive.

NOTES. again, i don’t do tiktok but i just saw this on yt and i was like… why not? hehehe. since i hadn’t been posting a “prank” lately, since it’s valentines & i had no other idea, i went with one today! enjoy reading~ 

┌───────── ·  ·  ·  · ꒰⚘݄꒱₊

ZHONGLI is observant, but he is dense as well. The moment he lands his eyes on you, there was already a gentle smile on his face. His arms found your waist, circling around you as he pulls your back to his chest. With this proximity, he was able to catch a whiff of your homely scent, the muscles on his shoulders easing down at the feeling of home. 

Only when he had pulled so very slightly away when he brought up your clothing, “You’re dressed quite differently today, is there something special to celebrate, dearest?” 

“Ah, not really,” you say, “I just wanted to wear something different for a while.” 

“Well, it is indeed different from those of Liyue customs… tell me, where did you get it from?” 

Let’s just say you’d have to be prepared to tell the whole story… or just admit you did that on purpose.

#do i know you?

—you forgot everything about them after an accident, and they were left with no choice but to accept the harsh truth. would you still love them even if you’ve got no memories left of them?

CHARACTERS. Aether, Albedo, Ayato, Childe, Diluc, Gorou, Kaeya, Kazuha, Scaramouche, Thoma, Venti, Xiao, Zhongli; gn!reader 

THEMES. angst. reader has amnesia. hurt & (reverse) comfort. 

WARNINGS. may have mentions of being physically hurt but not much, it’s an implication. also, some may not have good endings :) 

NOTES. i’ve been doing a lot of reverse comfort lately omg. anyway, hope you guys will like this one! i’m a little bit sick so i’m afraid that this may look a bit rushed or different?? i hope it doesn’t. anyway, enjoy!

ZHONGLI is grateful that you are safe. Mortals are fragile, and it was a huge relief for him, but he can’t say he wasn’t saddened by your lost memories, because he was. Yet, it was not that much of a dominating feeling than the relief and comfort of knowing that you’re doing well. 

He couldn’t help himself, it was as if his hand was craving your skin, reaching out to the side of your face to trace his fingers lightly whilst offering a gentle smile. 

“Mr. Zhongli…?” you stutter—did he make your heart flutter again? 

“Is this uncomfortable?” he retracts his hand and backs away to give a respectful amount of space between the two of you. 

“It’s…  alright,” you let out with a bit of hesitation in your voice, “I don’t… for some reason, I don’t mind it. It must be hard for you as well.”

“You mustn’t think about it,” he says, “it must also be difficult to lose all your memories. I am here to help you as much as you can.” 

He sees you smile again—it was the same one you’d often give him, different, but still similar nonetheless. 

For now, he thinks it was enough.

┌───────── ·  ·  ·  · ꒰⚘݄꒱₊

XIAO is stunned, surprised beyond belief, and yet he manages to keep his emotions in check, like usual. Not showing what he truly feels and clamming them up inside like a prisoner in his chest.

The summer festivals with Diluc are quite interesting. Since he's always so business with the wine industry, you'll have to convince him to take a few days off to enjoy the summer festivities with you. He eventually concedes, since he has been working hard, and you used your puppy eyes, your best weapon.

With the streets of Mondstadt being so crowded due to the festivities, he'll use that as an excuse to hold your hand, so you won't get lost in the sea of people.

You convince him to buy the foods from the street vendors, and as you gobble away, he'll stop you before wiping away any loose crumbs from the corners of your mouth. Diluc thinks that you look like a cute little chipmunk when you eat to your heart's content.

Diluc may seem hesitant to participate in the games that are provided, but he eventually agrees. He actually scores quite high and seems to be surprised that you're surprised he did so well. If you start praising him, he'll avert his eyes and cough in an attempt to hide his blush.

He noticed that you had been eyeing some relationship bracelets. He heard that they were to be gifted to someone you loved as a way of telling them you'd love them forever. Diluc ended up buying a matching one for you, and you excitedly slip one onto his wrist. It seems childish, but the thought behind it makes his heart race.

You occasionally take breaks from the bustling and loud environment of the festival and take breathers in an alleyway. You can't stop giggling because Diluc, despite what he says, is actually enjoying himself. You reward him with kisses because he's so damn cute.

When it's finally time for the fireworks, Diluc finds a good secluded spot for the two of you, and as the fireworks light up the dark night sky, you let your head rest against his shoulder. The colorful and explosive sight takes your breath away, and you can tell Diluc is just as amazed as you are.

ー 𝐊𝐀𝐄𝐘𝐀

With Kaeya, the summer festival is never boring. He's always stirring up something, whether it be good or bad. Kaeya makes sure to flee from the scene with you in tow. He wouldn't want to ruin your date now, would he?

You've had to stop his shenanigans more than once, and had to haul his ass away. You swear you're gonna get a headache from how much mischief he makes.

Kaeya will participate in the festival games playful, not really caring if he scores high or not. But he does make sure to flex should you be watching. He puffs up his chest the whole time with a shit-eating smirk.

He absolutely buys the festival wine but makes sure the two of you are sitting while drinking. If you're not in the mood for wine, he'll let you choose another drink. As long as it's not grape juice. He will judge you the whole time.

If you overheat from the hot summer night, he'll press his hand against your forehead to cool down your body temperature. If Kayea is feeling more teasing, he'll begin to kiss your face all over, and he'll chuckle at your embarrassed face.

Did he just steal a bouquet that was meant for decoration and give it to you? Damn right he did. You wonder if that damn bard put him up to it, or if the wine is getting to his brain.

Kaeya actually takes you up on the Mondstandt walls and sits atop them when the fireworks explode in the air. The two of you swing your legs slightly before he turns to you and presses a chaste kiss on your cheek. The sincerity in his smile and azure eyes says everything.

ー 𝐀𝐋𝐁𝐄𝐃𝐎

You and Klee were the deciding factors in taking him to a festival. The two of you gave him your best puppy eyes before he finally cracked and agreed. But you owe him big time.

Klee is practically on a sugar high, bouncing from vendor to vendor, and you're out of breath from how much you've been chasing after the little one. Albedo is giving you the most subtly 'I-told-you-so' look he's ever given.

The two of you take turns carrying Klee when she gets a bit exhausted, but when the two of you aren't carrying her, you'll be holding hands while you enjoy the atmosphere of the festival.

Sucrose might actually have an alchemy stand set up, and she'll shyly greet the two of you before letting you try out the activities she set up with Timaeus' help, and Albedo giving out his thoughts every so often. Klee got a really pretty flower that took a few tries, but it was worth it.

Albedo buys a really nice dinner for the three of you to enjoy, and a small dessert for Klee to have since she was constantly asking for one. You and Albedo share one, with you feeding Albedo small forkfuls' of it. When he's full, he'll lean against your shoulder, his fluffy blonde locks tickling your cheek.

While Klee is excitedly trying out the games provided at the festival, you're just hoping she doesn't ask you or Albedo, because you know that he would probably stink at it, and the same can be said for you. If either one of you is called over by Klee, the other will be either laughing or just sighing in relief that they won't embarrass themselves.

You and Albedo take Klee down to the docks by Cider Lake, with Klee sitting on your lap. She's incredibly hyper when the first firework bursts into the air. Unbeknownst to her, you and the chief alchemist have your fingers intertwined together as you admire the dazzling sight.

ー 𝐙𝐇𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐋𝐈

This man knows every single detail about the summer festivals that take place in Liyue. Zhongli knows the history of the festival, what kinds of games and food will be set up, and what kind of aesthetics the festivals will follow.

Zhongli is rather eager to tell you all about the history of the festivals, and it warms his heart that you're actually listening and taking in what he says. But what really warms his heart is when you recall details that he told you himself.

You make sure that he remembers to bring his damn wallet, and he does end up forgetting it, you end up bringing it in your pocket. Now hopefully he won't spend his money on overpriced gifts sold at the festival.

He bought simple paper fans for the two of you so you could at least stay nice and cool whenever it gets too hot. The close proximity of the crowd gets overwhelming too quickly, so you're grateful for the fans.

Zhongli actually bought you simple but elegant hairpins, and they were at quite a decent price. He of course paid with his own mora. You were surprised by how beautiful they were, but you can't say that it wasn't pleasant. You let out a happy smile at the sudden but welcomed gift.

He is the one who recommended which dishes to try out, and, well, who are you to say no to this man? He describes every dish in very accurate detail, and what they taste like. By the end of it, you swear that you're gonna go into a food coma from how full your belly is.

When the fireworks begin, Zhongli holds you close to him, his arm wrapped around your side, and when the brightest firework begins its crescendo, he brings your hand to his lips and presses a firm but gentle kiss to it, as a way of thanking you for spending this festival with him.

ー 𝐗𝐈𝐀𝐎

The fact that you convinced this man to participate is enough to get an award. With his rather aloof and offputting personality, you honestly thought he was gonna say no. He questions the fact that you were prepared for rejection, but sighs and just acknowledges it as another odd human thing.

Just to look cute, you bought a simple but cute custom-made hanfu outfit that matched Xiao's outfit color scheme. It was complete with a paper fan. He didn't expect you to look this cute, but here you were, smiling in his direction and bouncing on the walls just to go. He never properly says it, but he thinks you look absolutely stunning.

He stands guard while you innocently hold his hand while exploring all that the festival has to offer. It's not that he doesn't trust you to be by yourself, he just doesn't trust the people that could have ill will towards you. He's doing his best though, so you don't mind too much.

You convinced Xiao to release lanterns with you, that you made yourself too! He gives you a look, but eventually comes around, and watches them float off into the night sky with the rest of Liyue's. It's honestly an amazing sight, so Xiao better be prepared for you randomly releasing lanterns whenever you please.

If you struggle with any of the festival games and they just so happen to require speed, well, Xiao just so happens to offer his help with your weird human games, so you let him at it. You are pleasantly surprised by how good he is at them. He actually won a plush of a certain dragon, and you're happily nuzzling into it the whole night.

When you need an energy recharge, you buy yourself a simple dessert, and Xiao refused any food since he technically doesn't require it. You're too busy to notice the rather gentle look that Xiao's golden eyes hold in them when he gazes at you.

Xiao actually takes you to the same spot where he witnessed the lanterns of the Lantern Rite. His golden hues hold the same wonder as they did at the previous festival when the fireworks show begins. You give him a simple kiss on the cheek as your thanks, and he almost sputters at the sudden affection. Your Xiao is really like a cat.

ー 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐃𝐄

This man is so damn excited just to have a date with you at any festival. If you didn't know any better, you'd think that you could see a tail frantically and eagerly wagging back and forth. Since his homeland is basically a real-world freezer, I doubt that they'd really have any summer activities. So your best bet would have been in Liyue.

Since he's a walking wallet, he'll eagerly cover the costs. Don't have a nice outfit to wear? Well, he bought matching ones for the two of you! Ran out of mora while out buying snacks? Don't worry baby, he's gotcha covered.

Childe is all too eager to share food with you, even purposefully ordering one serving, and make it so that the two of you can feed one another. You're giving him a very judgemental look, but just humor him by taking a bite, and he's physically holding himself back from squealing how cute you are.

He does get very competitive with the festival games, but he can also just buy you a prize, but you're giving him the look again, so he has to earn a prize fair and square. He actually managed to get a fairly medium-sized narwhal plush. It reminds you of him a bit, and it's really squishy too.

Someone had a setup for photos, and Childe is all too eager for that. After a few tries, he keeps the one where you embrace each other with silly grins. He'll take it on his next mission so he can never feel lonely.

If there's any type of games that actually require strategy, you bet that Childe will put the other team to shame. The man is a harbinger for God's sake, he's being paid to strategize. His winning not only boosts his ego, but he gets to show off how clever and smart he is.

Childe took you up to a roof of a nearby building to have a clear and unblocked view of the fireworks. While they're blasting away into the night, he'll press his forehead against yours, gazing into your eyes briefly before giving you quite the loving kiss. It's the perfect cherry on top for the night.

ー 𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐌𝐎𝐔𝐂𝐇𝐄

He'll say no very firmly to your face, and then later yell at his subordinates to finds a damn good festival. They're all scrambling to find one to his tastes, while he's wondering if you'll enjoy your time with him.

You wore a simple violet-blue kimono that reminded you of Scara's vibrant and electrifying eyes. You didn't even give him time to react before dragging him and lightly chastising him for being an arse. When you aren't looking, his eyes are studying your form, without the usual harshness to them.

Did he really laugh at some poor guy that dropped his food? Yes absolutely. If he doesn't laugh, he has a very satisfied smirk upon his lips, while you're questioning everything you've ever done up to that point.

You don't let him near any of the games that can make one's anger and frustration spike tenfold. You know that he can and will try to commit arson on the poor game, so you just do it yourself, regardless of how much Scara tells you that you suck.

When the two of you take a quick snack break, you definitely try to play footsie with him, because he can't exactly cause a scene because of your feet, so he has to sit there and accept his fate. If he tries to kick you, however, he's dead meat.

Scara is actually decently good at making origami, much to your surprise. He seems rather offended that you didn't think him capable of doing such simple folding, so he'll use this opportunity to tease you at every wrong fold. If someone else tries that though, he'll beat them up. He gets boyfriend rights.

The two of you watch the fireworks from a bridge that overlooks a majority of the crowds and watchful eyes. So you'll be sure to get back at him by firmly hugging him and pressing your kisses everywhere. He's hissing at you to let go and to quit it, but you won't let this opportunity go to waste so you don't relent. All while the fireworks burst away and light up the two of you.

ー 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐋𝐄𝐈𝐅

He was a bit hesitant at first, but since he knows it's something that you look forward to, he agrees. You, however, insist that he change into something more fitting and that doesn't stand out. Well too bad for him, because you bought quite the handsome suit that is very breathable and light for the summer nights. He doesn't know how you know his sizes but he accepts it nonetheless.

Dainsleif holds your hand the whole time, before and after interacting with the festivities. It's a mix of safety reasons, but also your hand looks so cute and he was a bit shy to initiate hand-holding, but once you notice and hold his hand in yours, he's never letting go.

He insists on paying for everything, regardless of how much mora you brought. Dainsleif doesn't mind, as he'll buy you anything you want, regardless of the price. He doesn't mind paying for your meal and drink, despite your protests. Hell, he'll even feed you himself if you let him. You pout and whine that he spoils you too much, to which he only responds with a breathy chuckle and a heartfelt," Forgive me, but you're so endearing that I can't help but spoil you."

Dainsleif is quite relatively new to these types of games, but you assure him that you don't know what you're doing either, so you can both learn together. He didn't win a top prize or anything, but rather, matching rings. After some thought, you slipped them onto your ring fingers with a tender smile and giggle before dragging Dain off to a new vendor. After that, he's much more flushed and can't stop staring at the new ring.

You bought him a cute little wind chime, that had the same dark blues as did he. It was almost like a cute mini him of sorts. You gazed at it for a bit, before telling him that if he ever thought of you, he could hang up the wind chime and listen to its tune and think of you.

If he notices that you're getting tired, he'll offer to carry you so your feet won't get any more sores upon them. You decline and insist that he doesn't have to. He respects your decision, but he also lets you lean against him to balance your weight back and forth.

Dainsleif asks for your permission to kiss you, wanting your consent first. He'll let his deep blue eyes gaze lovingly into your own before he finally kisses you. Just as the first firework of the night blooms into a fiery and colorful explosion. It's the most romantic thing you could ask for.

ー 𝐓𝐎𝐇𝐌𝐀

His damn energy almost puts Childe's to shame, as he's eagerly skipping up to you and asking you out on a date to the festival. His excited smile melts your heart, and you like the man, so you agree. Tohma is practically telling the entirety of Inazuma about his date at this point.

Tohma bought sparkles for the two of you, so you could enjoy the joy they bring, and you can draw in the air. You had to elbow him just for attempting to draw suggestive things. There are children here Tohma, think of the innocent children. It was still funny as hell though

You actually suggested wearing matching kimono's and he's actually ecstatic about that idea. But his heart was not prepared when he saw how amazing you looked in yours. Tohma refuses to leave your side for the entirety of the festival since he knows others will think the same thing too.

He likes sharing his food with you and letting you take small nibbles. You don't really mind, since, hey, free food, so you take your bites and that's that. But in Tohma's head, the fact that the two of you put your lips on the same piece of food means that you indirectly kissed.

Tohma has gotten a little too competitive with the small games, mostly so he can show off, but also so he can gift you something special. He wants you to be able to remember these moments with him forever.

There was a small play of sorts that was happening, so you sit in between Tohma's legs to save space, and after a bit, he wraps his arms around you and rests his chin on your shoulder. You're too enthralled with the play's plot to notice how happy Tohma is to just be near you.

When it's time for the fireworks, and they've begun to really light up the night, Tohma will turn to you, rubbing the nape of his neck, about to say something when you pull him down for a kiss. He's absolutely frozen until you pull away, happily thanking him for the fun night before watching the spectacle before you. Tohma is an absolute mess and he's ready to combust at this point.

24 to 25, just stay with me

✧ genre: albedo, diluc, childe, kaeya, kazuha thoma, venti, xiao, and zhongli x gn! reader fluff

THIS IS VERY LONG and not beta read at all but anyways, i hope yall have an amazing christmas, pls enjoy this!! <33

ALBEDO

christmas eve with albedo consists of helping klee prepare cookies, milk, and a christmas wishlist for santa.

you'd spend the day baking cookies in the kitchen with the assistance of klee.

albedo is surprisingly a great baker, following the chocolate chip cookie recipe exactly and producing one of the best cookies you've ever tasted.

gives you a gentle smile when he sees both you and klee thoroughly enjoying the cookies he made.

his heart warms and he pecks your lips softly, thanking you with the same gentle smile when you tell him how good the cookies are.

when day turns to late night and klee is fast asleep, you both start to eat the cookies she left for santa claus on the table.

albedo holds the cookie up to your lips for you to bite, then he bites the cookie himself.

casual conversations ensue until the plate of cookies are finished, the glass of milk empty, and the clock's hands show that it's well past midnight.

would definitely cuddle with you as you two get ready for sleep, arms wrapping around your figure and pulling you closer to him to keep warm.

places a gentle forehead kiss before muttering a, "good night, darling, and merry christmas", voice soft and laced with utter adoration as he joins you in a peaceful slumber.

DILUC

diluc still has a bit of work at the tavern during christmas eve, but he makes sure to end extra early to come and spend time with you.

while diluc works for a bit in the morning, you go around mondstatd distributing gifts to your friends.

during lunch, he's definitely taking you out to eat somewhere special, fondly chatting with you as you eat and watch as other people enjoy their christmas eve.

you both have had a pretty long and wonderful day so when the night finally comes and diluc arrives home, you cozy up by the fireplace.

after you're all freshened up, diluc sits on one of the bigger chairs near the fireplace, inviting you, albeit a bit shyly, to sit on his lap so he could hold you.

you both fight off the chilly winter air with the warmth from the fireplace and from your own bodies.

luckily, the chair is big enough to allow you to curl and fit snugly into his protective and welcoming embrace.

whether you decide to start a conversation or stay quiet, diluc wouldn't mind. as long as he had you safe and comfy in his arms, that was all that mattered to him.

he'd cradle your head tenderly to his chest, his chin atop your head ad you both let time pass by.

it's when you're fast asleep when diluc carries you carefully to the bedroom and lays you on the bed, your smaller figure still enveloped in his arms as he mutters a small "merry christmas, my love.".

CHILDE

he's a family man so you'll definitely be spending christmas eve with him and his family.

childe spends the day of christmas eve watching as you play and spend time with his younger and older siblings.

there's an indescribable warmth that spreads through his chest when he hears or sees his siblings giggling loudly as you play with them and tell them stories.

he'd join both you and his siblings when you venture outside. he makes sure you're properly warmed up, hand around your waist pulling you close to him at all times.

aside from making sure you're warm, he also makes sure you're having fun, pelting snowballs at you when his siblings initiate snowball fights and such.

after a cold day outside, you all settle down with a chritmas cartoon movie marathon.

tonia and teucer have decided to take purchase on your lap, blankets wrapped snuggly around them. you, on the other hand, take shelter on childe's vacant shoulder.

childe's cheek rests on the top of your head and one of his arms wrap around you, tracing patterns onto your shoulder while his free arms ocasionally pets tonia and teucer's heads.

he isn't even that focused on the movie so he can immediately tell when you've joined his siblings in a peaceful sleep.

he'd wrap a separate blanekt around the two of you and plant a lingering kiss to the top of your head, whispering "rest well, baby. merry christmas," into your hair.

KAEYA

kaeya's a social butterfly so he often get's invited to some christmas eve parties in mondstatd.

whichever party or gathering he decides to attend, you are for sure coming with him.

when you show him you're outfit, he's automatically moving in to peck your lips saying, "beautiful as always, sweetheart."

if you're outfit isn't as warm as you expected it to be, kaeya drapes his dress jacket over your shoulders.

links your arms together and walks around the festive streets of mondstatd, the christmas joy effectively spreading all around.

of coruse, you get home from a day of socializing and walking around the snowy streets of mondtstad, and all kaeya wants to do is unwind.

the type to have a little romantic candle lit dinner in your shared home, christmas music playing softly in the background with some wine or your drink of choice.

your home is filled with chatter and hearty laughter as the night continues to pass, time ticking quickly as you continue to stay up.

you're quite surprised when the clock striked 12 midnight, kaeya taking one last sip from his glass before taking you hand from atop the wooden table and bringing it to his soft lips. "well would you look at that, how time passes, hm? merry christmas, angel."

KAZUHA

after the vision hunt decree had calmed down and kazuha was no longer a wanted individual, you spend your christmas eve day was spent taking a calming stroll around the outskirts of inazuma.

as a traveler and adventurer, he loves exploring new areas and lands.

the wheather was perfect for a little stroll as well, the air cool and calming as the clouds slightly cover the clouds overhead.

he'd take his time catching up missed time with you, hand intertwined gently in yours while you aimlessly walk through the terrains of the land.

he knows you might get tired walking around all day though, so he'd bring you back to your temporary shared home a bit early.

once night falls, kazuha's already cradling you in his arms as you lay in bed.

one of his hands is in your hair, gently running his hands through strands and massaging your scalp.

another hand is protectively placed on your hip, and his lips are permanently on the top of your head.

he hums and sings little songs as the remaining hours of christmas eve pass. sometimes he'll quietly sing little christmas songs onto the crown of your head, and other times he's hum a random tune he picked up from somewhere.

either way, kazuha's calming and quiet voice brings you to sleep, and you are no longer awake to feel him peck your lips softly and say, "goodnight, love. and merry christmas."

THOMA

thoma's a pretty busy man, especially during christmas season when everything is bustling and a mass of people request for his help.

given how busy he is, he barely has any time to wrap or sometimes even buy presents for those he cherishes.

so your christmas eve is spent doing extremely last minute shopping and gift wrapping.

in the day, you go to whatever stalls and kiosks are open to see what you can get for your friends and family.

thoma and you would walk around the streets of inazums, hands held and rushing playfully around in search of perfect gifts.

when you get back from the shopping, you relax for a while, taking your time to eat and of course, as initiated by thoma, cuddle.

as night falls over the land of eternity, thoma cooks something up for the two of you before sheepishly asking him to pack and wrap some gifts.

it starts off fine, but after some hours pass, you two are a giggling, happy mess. there are ribbons in both of your hairs from messing around, the gift wrapping paper and shredded confetti scattered all around you.

none of you seem to care about the clean up, simply enjoying the playfullness and the euphoric feelinf that surrounds the air.

by the time you're done packing, it is well past midnight. so thoma places a loving kiss to your temple and says, "why don't you head to bed already, love? i'll clean this up and we can both get some rest before celebrating christmas tomorrow, alright?"

VENTI

even though he knows santa claus doesn't exist, he still wants to try baking cookies for him just for a little fun.

so the day of christmas eve with venti is spent looking for sugar cookie recipes and buying ingredients.

he is of little help when looking for the ingredients, being easily distracted and side tracked by multiple things.

but with the apologetic smile and kisses he gives you, coupled with the spirit of christmas in the air, it was hard to even begin to be mad at him.

on your way back to your shared home after buying the ingredients, you laugh and talk about the cookie characters you'd like to make.

that night is spent attempting to bake in the kitchen.

venti, in a childlike manner, dips his finger into the cookie batter, smears some flour onto your face, and giggles as you plaufully scold him.

once the cookies are done, you get to decorating your cookies, piping designs and adding various toppings onto your treats.

at the end of the day, your both cleaning up the kitchen and enjoying your home made cookies, venti ocasionally chuckling and wiping the side of your mouth whenever there were crumbs on it.

when you finally yawn, worn out from the activities of the day, venti kisses your cheek affectionately. "ah, today was an eventful day wasn't it, dove? why don't we get some rest so we still have some energy for christmas, yeah?"

XIAO

as an adepti, he isn't really used to celebrating christmas and knows little about the traditions and activities to do during this season.

you spend the morning of christmas eve strolling around wangshuu inn and liyue with xiao, telling him about all the usual christmas traditions.

when you tell him about gift giving and how you have a gift for him, he is in slight panic because he doesn't have anything prepared for you.

"why didn't you tell me sooner?" comes his snappy remark. his voice is sharp and somewhat irritated but you simply laugh.

"it's fine xiao, i just wanted to give you a little something.". yeah, no, he's definitely getting you a gift.

as you distribute your gifts to friends around the area, xiao is searching everywhere to find you a decent gift.

as night falls, after a normal evening meal with xiao, you give him his gift.

he honestly doesn't mind whatever you decide to give him because as long as it came from you, he was content and happy enough. he accepts your gift with warm cheeks and a "straight face", clearing his throat to try and get rid of the embarrassing blush that paints his cheeks.

just when you're about to call it a night, xiao pulls out a packaged gift for you. it was obvious that the packaging wasn't as festive and decorative, his efforts were there so it was meaningful either way.

"in return for your wonderful... christmas gift, i got you this. take it and... merry christmas (y/n)."

ZHONGLI

he's watched over liyue for a considerable amount of time, so he has a general idea of how christmas is celebrated for some locals.

you spend the morning and afternoon of christmas eve taking a calming stroll along the somewhat festive streets of liyue.

he towers beside you, your arm linked in yours as you watch a few families greet each other and exchange gifts.

he takes you to some stalls, and although you know he doesn't have much to spend, he still asks if you want anything.

your heart warms when he asks you "do you want anything, dearest? perhaps i could get you a little something, no?" with a small smile on his face.

after a day of strolling, zhongli and you two return home to simply relax.

he prepares some hot chocolate instead of tea for a change, stating that, "i know this drink is quite fitting for this seasonal time. i thought we might try this instead of our usual tea for a nice change."

you can't help but giggle in amusement as you see small marshmallows formed in a shape of what seemed like a smile in your mug. zhongli's efforts were definitely there.

so you spend your evening peacefully sipping hot chocalte with zhongli.

casual conversations are exhanged as the cold winter wind sweeps through the partially opened windows. you chat and relish in each other's presence until the warm drink lulls you to a dreamless rest on a beautiful christmas eve.
