Wait I Just Realized I Already Requested Pretty Much That Exact Idea Like A Few Days Ago 💀 Im So Sorry

i had a fun request idea: reader getting into a prank war with yae miko >:) i like to think she'd be playful enough to join in and retaliate. i used to get up to a lot of pranks with my old coworkers and by far the funniest was hiding then jumping out and scaring each other- i think that would be a really funny prank to play on miko

-🐈‍⬛

Oh she would definitely get her share of fun by retaliating, for once that someone is bold enough to just dare tease her in return 😏

GN reader getting into a prank war with Yae Miko

It's common knowledge, at this point, that Yae Miko is among the biggest teasers in Teyvat

Witnessing all forms of reactions is a great source of entertainment for her, especially when your lifespan is longer than the one of humans

But the rarest, and most exquisite of them, is when her interlocutor purposely dares to tease back

For her, this is akin to a declaration of (prank) war, and she certainly won't stop until you are the one admitting defeat... or begging her to stop, if you end up being so desperate

As a certain Aranara called Aranakin would put it: "this is where the fun begins"

One day, you felt brave enough to hide on the path leading to your home, as you invited her for your weekly tea time together

It was initially a spontaneous offer from you, but over time, it became a regular part of your weekly schedules, with each of you preparing the tea by turn

Naturally, you kept her in the dark regarding your true intentions for today, as you would usually wait for her to arrive, or come along with her

You suddenly emerged from behind the bushes as she passed by, causing her ears to twitch a little, but only out of surprise

It would take a lot more than that to scare her though

"My, my... Someone's feeling bold today. Were you trying to scare me, little one?"

With the same amount of confidence as always, she casually approached you, and slowly reached out for your chin, embracing it with her hand.

"I do hope, however, that you're fully aware of what you've just done... And I trust, of course, that you're ready to face unforeseen consequences, hmm?"

"Of course I am!"

"Very well, S/O. We shall see for how long you will be able to keep up."

She then releases your chin and moves back along on the path, as if nothing ever happened just now.

The rest of that day went as normal as always, and just like you kept her in the dark for the little surprise today, she's doing the same regarding all the ideas sprouting in her mischievous mind

Things are going to be eventful from now on

~~~~~~~~~~

One day, you were casually enjoying your time with her at the Grand Narukami Shrine

A shrine maiden requested her attention for some matters, thus leaving you alone in the room for a while

The prankster in you suggested to swap her current light novel in progress, with a blank empty one

She noticed it only after you left... thankfully

"That little rascal..."

~~~~~~~~~~

The following day happened to be your weekly tea time

Except that your cup is filled with what seems to be tea, as always... minus the taste, replaced by just hot water

"What the..."

"Is the tea not to your liking, little one? I prepared it like I always do."

"That's just... colored hot water!"

As you dared to say this, her eyes started to glow, while an Electro kitsune began peeking from behind her.

"Are you saying that you now dislike my tea? But you always praised it until tonight. Does that mean you've been fooling me all this time, S/O?"

Her stare turns more intense on you... until it all returns to normal, followed by a chuckle coming from her.

"You should have seen your face just now, that was quite the sight. I jest, of course~"

~~~~~~~~~~

You collapse exhausted on her laps, at the end of a long and tiring day

At this, she glances down at your weakened form and starts patting your head

"Dear me, how kind of you to use your remaining energy to come visit me, out of everything you could have done."

You hum gently at her words, while she scratches softly through your hairs to help you relax a little.

"After all, you know full well that I would never give you up, or let you down, or even run around and desert you. Likewise, I happen to know your boundaries, so I would never make you cry, say goodbye, tell a lie, or desert you."

Her smile increasingly grows into a smirk, as you process what you just heard, until it finally hits you.

"You..."

"What is it? If you're willing to discuss a truce, maybe you should rest first. After all, we don't want you to agree to my conditions without paying attention, mhh? I admit this would be pretty amusing though."

Considering your exhaustion, and knowing how she would set her conditions, you decide to wisely follow her advice, and consequently rest

You may not be safe from her little tricks, but alas, you will be safe in her near

And it's not a privilege she plans to remove through her truce's conditions

Happy Birthday, Furina!

Oops, you're here early. I haven't even finished getting ready yet!

You think my makeup and outfit look fabulous today? Of course, darling Gentilhomme Usher always does an impeccable job.

Since you're here, how about I have them style you too?

This special day is the perfect opportunity for us to make a glamorous entrance~ Hehe, I bet no one will be able to take their eyes off us!

Happy Birthday, Sangonomiya Kokomi!

"The scenery of Watatsumi Island is pure and beautiful. Taking a stroll like this on the island, away from all disputes, is such a pleasant experience."

"Of course, this is all based on the premise that the people of Watatsumi Island live far from conflict and in happiness."

"Ah, I'm starting to think about these things again... Just relax now, it's only a stroll, let me clear my mind."

not to be That Person but when people are like “why isn’t there a big fandom culture anymore?” umm…

maybe this is why???? That an author can spend hours (if not days or weeks or months) on something, have 1,800 people read it, and only have THREE people willing to take a few extra seconds out of their day to comment. Not even something as simple as “thanks for sharing” or “second kudos” or “❤️”

I’m not the internet police. You decide what you do with your time. Just don’t be surprised if the result is that creators leave your fandoms. I’m not writing to scream into the void. If that’s what I wanted, I wouldn’t bother posting. Fandom is a community. It’s an exchange of enthusiasm over this thing we all love. And who’s gonna keep showing up at your house with a goodie basket if all you do is take the basket, slam the door, and leave them outside to watch through the window while you eat?

Happy Birthday, Amber!

See? Told you there would be lots of Anemo Crystalflies here, hehe!

As an Outrider, it's definitely my job to lead the way to these hidden spots!

Wait, do you smell something...? Ah, it's buttered pancakes! Did you make these yourself? They even look so cute!

Here, the hardest-working master chef should get the first bite!

Happy Birthday, Kamisato Ayaka!

Ah, this novel... It's a newly published light novel from Yae Publishing House, set in Fontaine.

The editor asked if I could find some time to read it, saying my opinion would be valuable to them. They're being too kind, really.

But it is a mystery novel, a genre I quite enjoy. Would you... like to read it with me?

Please, take a seat. And these treats are for you, just... something I made myself. I hope you like them.

i see! :0 it's interesting reading about why people like the characters they do, i like her for a lot of the same reasons. you'll be glad to know that i think miko is supposed to be in the current genshin event! she's in the art for it at least so she should turn up at some point.

HAHA no-bell prize got me, that's a good one. people sometimes tell me i overuse my knock knock jokes, but i say don't knock it till you try it 😎

-🐈‍⬛

Are there any other different reasons in your case, if I may ask? 👀

Indeed, I noticed her too, although I ought to finish the 2.2 story quest in Honkai Star Rail first (for spoilers' sake), before focusing on that music event 🤔

But Itto's there, and even if I may not be a huge fan of him, his EN VA is always so good though 😊

Perhaps it's also just that only a few select people have such a refined taste for dad/Cyno jokes 🗿

"Ruan Mei doesn't know love"

wrong. her name comes from her parents who both died. her love for desserts comes from her aunt that bought her desserts as a child, from the treats her mother would give her after a research expedition. her love for traditional theatre comes from her grandmother's love for it. her character was born and woven with love, her very essence is a woman so deeply loved by her family that everything about her is an embroidery of these aspects.

her apathy is a direct result of this love being ripped away from her, with the death of her parents and feeling she had failed them. she is traumatized and doesn't want to feel she has failed someone ever again. and so she doesn't allow herself to get attached. but she still shows love. she shows it in remembering Stephen's favorite treats, she shows it in hand embroidering a charm for asta because she mentioned how pretty it was, an argument could be made that she shows it in the SU with her occurrence.

this isn't even a deep character analysis, this is all just... explicitly written out in her backstory

Happy Birthday, Amber!

"If only I could fly with these pigeons! Ah, I think I might've stared at them for too long, Timmie is starting to glare at me..."

The yumekui-baku feeds on dreams.

As the fork descends, she pierces through the trapdoors you've passed, the thorns you've touched, and the tempests you've faced.

Layer by layer — until she uncovers the softest "delicacy" and presents it before you.
