Quick silly chibi doodle of Heizou giving a TedTalk
no no see, domesticity IS hot. how intimate it is to make food with someone, to share a bed, to brush your teeth at the same sink, to shower and use the same towels and the same laundry soap, to grocery shop and hold hands through the aisles, to be cornered in the kitchen to make out while a pot of pasta boils over on the stove. to fall asleep and hear them snoring softly and laugh at the little trail of drool out of the corner of their mouth. to spend money together and share chores and pick on each other for your weird habits. it's not always perfect and beautiful, but it's comfortable and familiar and I just think it's neat.
All patched up
kaeya sketch!
This is why canon Alhaitham is infinitely better than fanon.
I think Alhaitham's views on gods and his dynamic with Nahida in particular is probably one of the most underrated comedic elements to come out of Sumeru.
This guy put together an entire crack squad and master plan to rescue a god while being the Genshin equivalent of an atheist. "Yes, obviously archons exist. But so do sharks. Both of those beings have their place in the ecosystem, and if I had to pick one to piss off--"
Like, does he believe in the dendro archon? Yes. But is he going to listen if she denies his paid vacation request? Absolutely not.
Bro is selected by name to come discuss important matters with his nation's deity in her sanctuary, and he's just like, "Oh, I ran into Nilou there once. That was cool."
Raised to the highest possible position available in his nation's government by the deliberate selection of his god? Resigns.
We know that Nahida still calls on Alhaitham when Sumeru is in need of defending from nefarious parties, and sends him out with Wanderer to kick ass and take names. Now that they've forgotten Rukkhadevata and the Akademiya's ploy to imprison Nahida has been foiled, most of the people of Sumeru would be floored by the honor of being called upon personally to aid the great dendro archon. Staggered by the fact that the lord of wisdom herself finds them worthy! But Alhaitham? He just goes home. Kaveh asks him what he was up to all day. "Hm. Nothing of note."
Everyone else, upon receiving the recognition of a god: My life has been changed forever. I will be telling my great grandchildren of the day I received such a blessing!
But for Alhaitham? It was Tuesday.
Criminally underrated comedic potential. CRIMINAL.
I love Barbara so much genuinely she's just so cute, I need more fics with her and venti (platonically) together
I'll be adding the other heroes as I go, but let me have this ship just for one moment
Calling out to all inmates willing to help!!
The annual Halloween party at Fortress Meropide is coming soon! His Grace is extremely busy with preparations, how will he even find the time to prepare a costume for himself or his loved ones?!
Help the Duke! Give him Halloween costume ideas!!

(just look at his puppy face, you know you want to help him; also you may even earn yourself some Credit Coupons if he really likes it)
If you are a chaser of freedom, the Anemo Archon will bless you.
Someone online: "Men dont have to deal with [issue]. I have never heard a man talk about [issue]. This is a women's issue!"
Man: "I've dealt with this. I just dont speak up about it because no one car-"
People online: "Shut up. We're talking about women."
