Eula with a shy S/O HC's

DON'T YOU-

-ME, ANON

- Eula doesn't seem like the type to be the more gentle one in a relationship, especially if her S/O is shyer than others.

- ...Well, she still isn't, but man does she try.

- When they first met, Eula assumes S/O is terrified of her because she's a descendant of the Lawrence clan.

(Eula) "...You're staring."

(S/O) "...A-Am I? Sorry I didn't-"

(Eula) "Oh, I understand. Truly. After all, the Lawrence clan is still out for vengeance. It makes sense that you don't think you're safe around me."

- In reality, S/O was half-terrified, half in awe of how pretty of a woman Eula was. S/O wasn't sure what to say since said pretty woman was carrying a greatsword bigger than them. If anything, that was the part that terrified them the most.

- Eula just brushes them off, walking away since she was used to this treatment.

- Then came the next day where S/O specifically sought them out.

(Eula) sigh "Let me guess, my mere presence is something you can't sta-"

(S/O) "N-No! I'd like to apologize to you for yesterday!"

(Eula) "Er...What?"

- Eula then finally noticed S/O's body language. It was obvious they weren't great at talking to others. Thankfully it didn't seem as bad as Sucrose's inability to speak to others, but still.

- This apology didn't seem mocking or they were scared of her "wrath". It was genuine.

- And that was what drew her towards them.

- Eula and S/O spend a lot of time away from the public eye, which suits both of them just fine.

- S/O appears to come out of their shell around her, and only her from what she's seen.

- Although it confuses her how S/O doesn't seem to care about her reputation since they aren't a knight and are subject to all the nasty gossip about her, she couldn't be any happier (on the inside).

- Eula is a bit awkward around S/O however. She doesn't usually try to reserve her manner of speech in front of others due to her past experiences, but with S/O she has to reserve her usual "vengeance" speak.

- S/O is a far more gentle person, especially if it's only the two of them in a room, so she doesn't want to hurt them with what she says, even though she doesn't mean it.

- Eula defaults to trying to deflect any type of compliment or insult off whenever people speak to her, so whenever S/O says something nice about her, she has to remain silent for a few moments before saying thank you in a hushed manner.

- It's still a bit awkward for them despite the fact they're used to it.

- Most of their time together is spent in a comfortable silence, just enjoying each other's company without anyone to judge them.

When you reject them

characters; Scaramouche, Kazuha, Childe, Yoimiya, Hu Tao

;contains a quite a few story spoilers! And a little yandere at Scara's part.

Zhongli, Ganyu and Ayaka were here originally but god idk what flaw i could use against disciplined peeps to get reader to dump them shshhsshs

Scaramouche

Ah. Of course.

This isn't the first time someone had rejected who he truly was. Who in the right mind would love a mere puppet? Maybe he shouldn't have revealed this truth he oh so despises.

He thought, that maybe, you were different, that you'd accept him and his feelings, not as The Balladeer or as the Shogun's prototype, but as Kunikuzushi, the forevermore chalked embodiment with a soul longing for appreciation.

But boy, was he wrong.

"I'm sorry, Kuni-, I mean, Scaramouche. But I simply wish to live in peace with my family." His arms stiffed under your sorrowful gaze as you handed him back the bouquet he bought for you. "And, being with you will prevent me from doing that."

"...I see." He looked away as he somehow heard his heart crack into small pieces.

"D-don't get me wrong!" You flailed your arms in concern, "You're a good person! But, I'm afraid I can't overlook your title as a Harbinger..."

You both had gone silent after. Well what could you say? You can't just apologize for breaking a man's heart. Especially to someone who's already as fragile as he is.

You felt your eyes widen when he slowly started approaching your figure. "What are you-"

You were cut off as he patted your head with a small rare smile upon his features.

"It's okay. Your cautiousness is one of the things I liked about you after all." He retracted his hand as he stepped back, slowly donning his hat once again. "I guess, this is farewell, as Kunikuzushi atleast." You noticed his hand gripped the bouquet tightly as he bowed towards you, before he turned around and started walking away, leaving you under the falling petals of sakuras.

What did he mean by "atleast"?

Kazuha

He slowly writhed in pain as he looked at you interact with Gorou. You both looked terribly down for each other, it was so obvious that you harbored feelings for each other that the whole resistance army ships you both.

He clutches the bamboo flute you had made for him specifically in his hand, reminding himself that not all hope has been lost, especially with the look of adoration you adorned him with as he played the flute during a sunset in Watatsumi Island.

"Y/n." You heard him call out from up the trees as you were making your way towards the camp.

"Oh, Kazuha." You smiled as you waved at him, which he took as signal to jump down in front of you.

"There's something I wanna tell you."

"What a coincidence. Me too!" You laughed a bit, too giddily...he thought. "You can go first though."

"I- uh, no. You can go first." He scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. Could you possibly be...?

"O-oh well, actually..." You put your arms behind your back as your face flushed a bit. Kazuha gulped at your actions. Are you actually gonna...?

"Me and Gorou started dating!" You giggled happily, as he froze in shock, but alas, you didn't notice. "I actually wanted to tell you this quite a bit ago, since you're a close friend of ours, but-"

The rest of your words were tuned out as Kazuha stood completely still, not quite processing your words.

"You guys...are dating...?" He repeated, still not believing.

You stopped your babbling as you looked at him with a raised brow. "Yeah...we are. Are you okay? You don't look too well." You stepped closer to inspect his horrified look.

His doubts and thoughts spiraled as he tried to wrap his head around those words. He couldn't believe it. No way, he can't. He couldn't believe that...

he had lost you to him already. (this isn't really a rejection but i can't hurt my boy like that)

Childe

"Bleeghhhh! You'll never catch me!" Ajax stuck out a tongue as he dodged a snowball you had threw at him. "You always speak way to soon!" You ran behind a rock to dodge one of his throws as you scooped up another batch of snow.

Playing with him, never felt cold. Even in the everlasting cold winters in Schneznaya, simply being in his presence was warm and delightful, almost like a fireplace, haha. Kinda ironic, considering the sudden chill you felt down to the very bottom of your being when he walked past you silently after missing in the forest for 3 days straight.

He changed.

Just what had happened during those 3 days? It all still remains a mystery to you and his neighbourhood.

You frowned as he appeared before you once again, this time wearing an all too familiar uniform. Way proudly. Too proudly.

"Of course, you became a Harbinger. Of course." You sighed, disappointed with his choices. Where was the boy you loved who would always bring hot bread from his home to yours? And who was this man named Childe, in front of your doorstep?

"I-" His smile fell at your expression. "Aren't you proud?" You looked down at your feet as you spoke up, "I...how could i be proud? When you're now affiliated with the Fatui, as one of their lords at that?"

He blinked. Was this because he had stopped playing with you a few years back? "Are you...angry with me joining them?"

You looked at his lightless eyes as you cupped his face with gentle hands. "It's more like...I feel sad."

"About what?"

"It's nothing you have to worry about." You stepped back onto the other side of the doorstep, keeping your silent pleas for him to come back near your heart, long decided to be unsaid. "It's better to not be know, as it'll probably affect your line of work." You smiled as you tried to close the door, but suddenly his hand had stopped it.

"What are you saying?? I came here since I felt that..." He frowned. "That you felt the same way."

"What way? You mean loving you?"

"Yes."

"Childe." You stared at him blankly. "I'm engaged."

And he fell down into misery, yet again.

Yoimiya

"The fireworks are as spectacular as always, Yoimiya." You lifted your gaze to the sky blooming with colorful lights, "It seems you've went after a romantic theme for today." You say as you spotted multiple heart-shaped explosions in the sky.

"Oh, that's- uhmm..." Yoimiya looked down at her feet, with an uncharacteristically shy voice. "It's just..."

"Oya?" You felt your lips tug into a smirk. "Did our Queen of Narukami find herself a little crush? Mind telling me who has the honor of catching the attention of her majesty?"

"Eh???!" Her eyes widened as she felt herself get hotter.

"Pfft, you should really look at yourself right now." You laughed a bit at her sudden shyness.

"D-do you really wanna know who it is?"

You blinked at her demeanour. "Not if you're uncomfortable with it."

"It's fine." She put down her sparklers as she stood up, fully taking the view of the fireworks. "This person...has always been by my side." She started. "They...had always supported me with my passion for fireworks. Even though I failed many times, resulting in some severe burns, they were always the one patching me up, and telling me that I shouldn't give up, even if I didn't plan to, hehe."

You felt your chest tighten as you connected the dots. There's no way she's talking about...

"Hey, Y/n." She turned to you with a smile that mirrors the beauty of the fireworks, "I like you. I really do."

"..."

"I already know...that you like Ayaka, but...!"

"Yoimiya." You halted her words. You felt your mood dampen with the visible hurt in her eyes. "I...only see you as a sister of mine. I don't think i can-" You sighed, not wanting to have to tell her this way. "I don't think i can see you as anything beyond that."

You could only watch as she smiles to herself, and silently cry, knowing she'd never win against an actual princess.

Hu Tao

"Ah-!" You exclaimed as you felt something heavy jump on you from behind.

"Hello, my lovely Y/n!" She giggled as she stuck on to you like a koala, "Nice to see you today!"

You sighed as pried her off from you. "Hu Tao, not now. I'm busy." You heard her huff as she crossed her arms.

"Collecting debts is sooo boring! Why don't you come work at the parlor instead?" She winked at you, as if she just suggested some completely genius. "I'll give you an extra bonus on your pay if you bring new customers, ehe!"

"Stop disrupting my work. Besides, the Tsaritsa has given me enough money already."

"Then why continue working for themmmmm, boo hooo!"

"Hu Tao, just leave me alone. I don't feel like dealing with you today."

She felt a pang in her heart, yet her smile didn't waver. "Oh, come on! Just admit it, you like me being around-"

"No. You're annoying." You stated as you looked towards her. "I seriously don't get why you keep going after me. Can't you go annoy someone else, like Zhongli?"

Her ruby eyes widened at your harsh words. "I-I just wanted to-"

"To cheer me up?" You fixed your position to fully face her. "Being in the Fatui has shown me all the ugly sides of this world. You're only constantly reminding me of my siblings that I'll never see again."

Hu Tao looked down at her feet, knowing fully well that she did nothing but pester you.

"My anger towards you right now may be misplaced, but you'll need to know that I also need space."

"I already know all of that." She spoke up, with a new determined look in her orbs. "It's precisely why I keep insisting you to be with me so you could be happy. You're all alone...and i just wanted to change that."

You frowned at her words, "Why are you trying so hard to-"

"Because I love you!"

Your eyes widened as she gritted her teeth. "I've always loved you!"

"Hu Tao."

"-Ever since that time you found me at Wuwang hill, and helped me move on from my grandfathe-"

"Hu Tao."

She looked up with tears prickling her eyes.

"If I were the same person all those years ago, I would've accepted your confession with no question." You looked down at your own feet this time,

"But unfortunately, I'm not the same as I used to be."

Eula confronting her Fatui!S/O

Ironic.

They could protect Eula from getting judged for her identity.

But not themselves...

- Eula had reported her discovery about her S/O being a spy for the Fatui to the Knights already.

- All that was left was to confront them about it. Though this confrontation was for the good of Mondstadt, for Eula, this was far more personal.

- Eula had asked the Traveler and the other Knights to wait outside in case the situation got bad.

- She had gone to their house and talk to them alone.

- Eula swung open the door, fist clenched with their orders on several papers.

(S/O) "Eula? Is something wrong?"

(Eula) "As a matter of fact, there is."

- Eula slammed her hand onto the nearby table, the papers scattering.

- S/O's expression darkened the moment they saw their orders laying out for both of them to see.

(Eula) "What the hell is this?!"

- S/O opened their mouth to say something, but no words came out.

- Eula kept her eyes on S/O the entire time. She was expecting them to go for a weapon, but they hadn't shown any signs of fighting or even running.

(Eula) "To think that all this time, YOU were the one the people of Mondstadt should have been looking out for instead of me."

(S/O) "..."

- S/O remained quiet, not being able to look Eula in the eye.

(Eula) "You were always the first one to defend me when people were getting on my case for being a Lawrence. You were always the first one to say, 'You should never judge someone for their family's past', S/O. Was all of what you said, lies?"

- She clenched her fist tightly, to the point it started to hurt.

(Eula) "When you told me that you loved me, not caring who I am, was that a lie too?"

(S/O) "...I..."

(Eula) "The truth, S/O! You will tell me, or the people of Mondstadt will have their vengeance!"

- S/O had heard that term so many times.

- Vengeance.

- Whenever it was directed at them or any other citizen, they could always tell Eula never meant it, despite what she said.

- Now, there was such venom in her words.

- Now it truly seemed like her vengeance would be wrought on them if they didn't say something.

- S/O remained quiet for a little longer before sighing, finally looking at her.

(S/O) "I meant every word, Eula. I truly do love you."

(Eula) "..."

(S/O) "And as much as I trust you...There is no way anyone would ever trust me, especially now that they know where I'm from."

- S/O sadly smiled.

(S/O) "Besides, you never deserved to be treated as you did. I never found that fair."

- Eula felt a single tear run down her cheek, but she dared not impair her vision.

- Now, S/O was planning something.

(Eula) "The Fatui diplomats in the city...do they know who you are?"

(S/O) "No. Only the person who ordered me here, though that was already a year and a half ago. My job was just to watch the Knights' activities posing as a civilian. Instead, I became attached to Mondstadt..."

- S/O reached behind them, prompting Eula's hand to reach for the hilt of her greatsword.

(S/O) "The City of Freedom. To be honest, I wasn't really big on this place when I got here. But after I met you?...It showed me that this place isn't all too bad."

- S/O slowly pulled out a small blade while Eula unsheathed her greatsword, waiting for them to make a move.

- Instead, S/O threw it onto the floor, following a number of other small weapons and tools.

- Eula was confused at first, looking at the weapons then to S/O.

(Eula) "What...?"

(S/O) "I don't want to fight you or anyone else in the Knights."

- S/O turned away.

(S/O) "...Archons know I've already hurt you more than any sword could."

- Eula lowered her weapon, but it remained in her hands.

- S/O slowly walked up to the table where Eula was, and grabbed the papers, walking back to a nearby fireplace, tossing the papers inside.

(S/O) "...Whatever you want to do, I'll accept it, Eula."

- S/O watched as the papers were slowly reduced to ash, not hearing a word from Eula.

- They both remained still in complete silence, not sure what to do...

reuniting with them — mondstadt edition

inazuma version here

includes: diluc, amber, albedo, jean

diluc

diluc was not a night owl. it wasn’t his thing, he liked to be fully rested; especially with you by his side. but the night before you left to sumeru for business reasons, you were up with diluc until the sun rose just talking.

“i have to leave in a few hours,” you chuckle, tracing the rays of sun that illuminated diluc’s figure in the bed next to you.

he softly groans and rolls over to look out the window across the room. “oh… i didn’t realize the sun had come up. how rude of me to keep you up all night before such an important day…”

“no, i… i enjoyed it. even though i think you dozed off a few times.”

diluc saw you off and had people accompany you to sumeru, and was left with a strange, empty feeling in his chest. it was heavy, overwhelming.

how dramatic. he thinks. they’re only going to be gone a few months.

months. at first, it didn’t feel too horribly long to diluc. but with you gone, time seemed to slow down, going at a snail’s pace. on week 2 without you, he could’ve sworn it had been a month. it was hard to focus on his work. all he wanted to do was write to you and see how you were doing.

and when the day of your scheduled return came, diluc couldn’t shake the nervous feeling he felt. it felt as if he was going to see you for the first time. he was so excited he could barely contain it.

“well, master diluc looks awfully happy today.” you say, walking to where he stands outside the winery.

diluc nearly chokes on his grape juice, barely catching the glass in time when he hears your voice. “i wasn’t expecting to see you just yet,” he says, coughing to clear his voice. “welcome back, my love.”

amber

if you ever need a helping hand, a shoulder to cry on, or just someone to listen to you rant, amber was the one who was there for you. she was one of the most important people in your life, and it made leaving mondstadt so much harder. you originally stopped in the nation just to rest for a bit before continuing your journey to liyue, but after meeting amber, you kept delaying your travels. the days leading up to your departure were melancholy. amber was the same giggly and bubbly girl you knew, but you always saw how her smile faded when she remembered that you’d be leaving soon.

“i promise, i’ll be back someday. and i’ll never leave again.”

your words stayed in amber’s head. she heard them every day, every time she thought of you. she prayed every night that you’d arrive back the next morning, but it felt as if you never would. and her prayers eventually stopped.

just for you to show back up the next morning.

as she was hanging up flyers around the town, she heard someone call out for her.

“hm? do you need me for something? i can help you right after i — (y/n)?” after realizing it was you, she threw your arms around you, nearly throwing you off balance. “you’re back? already?”

“i couldn’t stand to be away a second longer than i had to,” you admit. “things just weren’t the same without you…”

albedo

albedo hadn’t realized how important you were in his life until you left. he felt empty. he’d turn to talk to you just to realize that you were still gone more times than he’d like to admit. the bed he sleeps in feels so empty without you, and he feels as if it’s much too big for one person.

being able to write to you was nice, but it wasn’t enough. he so badly wanted to be with you again, hold you, hear your voice.

but that was selfish. he knew that all too well, so he often told himself to be patient. you’d be back soon, and if you ever had to leave again, albedo would surely be by your side.

the shock on his face when he saw you in his lab when he returned from a sudden, and quite frankly, pointless meeting with the knights was priceless. it made sense now why he was called down to the city so suddenly.

wordlessly, albedo walks to where you stand and takes

you into his arms, sighing. “i didn’t know you’d be arriving today… i would’ve made plans if i did. i would have made your favorite food and we—“

“shh,” you shush him. “just having you here is more than enough for me.”

jean

despite writing to and receiving letters from you, jean couldn’t seem to fill the hole in her heart that you took when you left. she felt so selfish wishing that you’d come back when you were off doing bigger and better things that would help you achieve your goals.

and somehow, the people of mondstadt had figured out that you had returned to the nation before jean did. and as soon as she learned that, she made a b-line straight to where she knew she’d find you.

windrise, where the wind was the most refreshing. the place where you had spent many afternoons with jean after being able to drag her out of her office. she made her way to where you stood by the statue of the seven.

“(y/n)…” she says softly. “why didn’t you tell me you were coming back so soon?”

you grin. “i wanted it to be a surprise.”

she chuckles, pushing a loose strand of blonde hair behind her ear. her cheeks are flushed as she’s overcome with emotion. “i missed you.” is all she can say as she wraps her arms around you, hoping she’ll never have to let you go again.

hello <3 can i request ayaka / tohma / hu tao picking a rose for reader but accidentally got pricked by a thorn so reader bandages them up and they carefully cut the thorns than gift reader the rose? 💛 thank you, hope you’re having a good day!

hi anon!! this is so cute omg!!!! and i love the characters you chose too 💓 tysm for requesting!! i made ayaka reader’s fiancée and they’re just a nondescript s/o for thoma and hu tao btw! idk ayaka just has wife energy to me

AYAKA

Ayaka is the epitome of grace and elegance… That’s why you could barely hold back your laughter when she came to you upset over the tiniest scratch on her finger, rose in hand.

“It’s not funny,” Ayaka muttered as you carefully bandaged her finger.

You had to avoid making eye contact with her lest you fall prey to another fit of giggling. “Sorry,” you composed yourself. “It’s just that you’re so cute, all sad about hurting yourself when you were trying to do something for me.”

You didn’t have to see her face to know she was blushing. You felt Ayaka’s hand instinctively begin to pull away from yours, likely to cover her flushed expression, but she stopped herself.

“Just be more careful next time, okay?” you requested as you finished bandaging the cut. Honestly, it was so insignificant that it probably didn’t need any medical care at all, but seeing the disappointed look in your fiancée’s eyes made you want to just pamper her and keep her safe from the world.

With her hand lingering in yours, you pressed a soft kiss to the now-bandaged cut. Ayaka quickly pulled her hand away for real this time, not out of anger, but embarrassment. “T-Thanks, [Name]…”

“And thank you for being so sweet,” you reciprocated. You kissed her forehead gently before the urge to start teasing her sprang up again.

-

Later that night, you had all but forgotten about the rose incident. You’d interrupted your commissions for the day to take care of Ayaka’s “injury,” and after finishing them and returning to the Kamisato Estate, you simply didn’t have the energy to remember.

Ayaka always tried to do her best to greet you when you came home. Sometimes you would finish your commissions late at night, but she would push herself to stay awake just so she could give you a goodnight kiss before going to sleep. When you finally made it back home and to the bedroom you shared with your soon-to-be-wife, you found her fast asleep, peacefully hugging your pillow.

You remembered the day’s earlier events when you noticed the rose on your nightstand accompanied by a beautiful calligraphic note.

“I’m sorry for interrupting your work and for falling asleep before you got home. I hope this suffices as an apology.”

That was one of the things you loved about Ayaka — how considerate she was. It was almost to a fault though; She had no reason to be apologizing for anything.

You examined the rose that had dared to prick your darling fiancée earlier today and saw that she had taken revenge on it. The thorns had all been meticulously removed. You would tease her about it again in the morning. For now, all you wanted to do was replace the pillow in Ayaka’s grasp with your body, feeling safe and comfortable in the arms of your beloved at the end of a long day.

THOMA

Thoma had a reputation for being capable of anything and everything. With the experience of living in two nations and being Ritou’s resident ‘fixer,’ you knew there was nothing he couldn’t do. Yet here he was, bearing a dejected expression and cut on his hand.

“What happened?” you asked, studying the wound on his palm. It really didn’t look too bad, but since you knew this kind of stuff rarely happened to Thoma, you were a little worried.

“Oh, it’s nothing!” he smiled, still as charismatic as ever. You wondered if there were other times where things had gone wrong and he just hadn’t bothered to tell you.

You shrugged as you met his gaze. “Fine,” you complied, “you don’t have to tell me. But, you do have to let me take care of it for you.”

Refusing to let go of his hand, you dragged his bedroom in the Kamisato Estate. It was much smaller than the others there because he was only a housekeeper, but Ayaka managed to make a decent bedroom for him. She even got some furniture all the way from Mondstadt for him.

You pulled open the drawer on a nightstand next to his bed and picked up a bandaid. Normally, it was Thoma who had to do emergency first aid on you, so you learned where he kept his supplies. You found it really endearing how he just happened to keep bandaids in his nightstand. He was always ready for anything — too bad that “anything” was usually taking care of you.

“It’s really nothing,” he reiterated as you removed the bandaid from its packaging. “You don’t have to do anything.”

You smiled sympathetically at him. All you were doing was protecting a tiny cut on his hand; you really wished you could do more for him. Thoma always seemed to be busy helping people with their own problems that he ended up neglecting his own.

You placed the bandaid on his palm. “I’d do more for you if you let me.”

Thoma crossed his arms for a moment, thinking, before answering you. “Now that you say that, yeah, there is something I could use your help with.”

You felt excitement rush through you. Finally, he wanted you to help him with something and you didn’t have to push him to let you do it!

“Would you mind leaving for a bit? Just a minute or two and then you can come back,” he answered.

You looked at him, dumbfounded. “You’re kidding, right?”

“No. Just go wait outside the door for a second, I promise it’ll be quick,” he assured you. Without any further resistance, you left his bedroom and closed the door behind you, leaving him in there alone.

You waited for not even thirty seconds until Thoma opened the door again. One of his hands was behind his back.

“Okay, close your eyes,” he instructed. You silently obeyed. “…Open!”

You were greeted by a rose in his now-bandaged hand extended towards you. You couldn’t help but smile at how sweet he was, but…

“Thoma, is this how you hurt yourself?” you teased.

A faint blush spread across his cheeks. “Maybe. But that’s not important! What’s important is that I love you.”

You accepted the rose from him and gave him a quick, chaste kiss.

HU TAO

Hu Tao’s dramatic nature often caused you to misconstrue big problems as insignificant and vice versa. She loved to play up any issue she may have, forcing you to decipher whether or not she actually wanted your help or not.

The tiniest scratch on her palm had her overreacting in fake pain as you carefully washed the thin amount of blood off.

“Oh, [Name], my beautiful love, you don’t think this wound will send me to the other side, do you?” she bemoaned with a hand resting dramatically over her heart.

You rolled your eyes. “I’m sure it will,” you jested. “Then, I wouldn’t have to deal with your antics.”

Hu Tao gasped incredulously. “[Name]! How could you say such wretched things to your injured darling? Have you no compassion?” she reprimanded, clearly fighting the urge to laugh.

You pressed a kiss to the now-clean scratch. “There,” you said as her act began to die down. “Is that better?”

She smiled genuinely at you. “I’d prefer if you kissed me up here,” she pointed at her lips, “but okay.”

“If you want that, you’re gonna have to work for it,” you joked before kissing her forehead. You were just trying to mess with her at this point. She always did it to you, so you had to occasionally return the favor, right?

“So mean,” she observed, still grinning. “You got any more work for today or can you stay?”

You glanced through the window in her office, pondering whether or not you should go back to your job at Yuehai Pavilion. The sun hadn’t set yet, but it was nearing the end of Hu Tao’s typical work day. Unfortunately, your schedules rarely aligned, so you assumed you’d have to get back soon.

“I should probably go,” you answered reluctantly. “I’ll see you later tonight though, okay?”

“Okay!” Hu Tao echoed. “Love you.”

You opened the door, preparing to leave. “I love you too.”

You would’ve skipped work if you had known this much paperwork was going to get dropped on you. Ganyu suddenly had some business to attend to with Cloud Retainer, leaving you to pick up the work in her place. Now you understood why she was always so stressed out.

Head against your desk, you sighed. It was well past sunset now. Hu Tao was probably worried at this point. There was nothing you wanted more than to go home and be with her.

Before you could finish lamenting your situation, the door to your office abruptly swung open, revealing Hu Tao with a rose in hand.

“Hi, babe!” she said excitedly, trying to cheer you up with her upbeat attitude. “I was starting to get bored without you around so I decided that I’d come bother you here! Oh, and this is why I cut myself earlier.”

She pushed the rose into your hands, peering into your eyes lovingly. “Come home soon, okay?”

“I’m much more better than your plushie.” [Genshin Impact]

It’s almost midnight when they came home. They find you asleep cuddling with your plushie. How would they react?

Characters Included: Aether, Albedo, Ayaka, Eula, Childe, Gorou, Hu Tao, Kazuha, Scaramouche & Thoma + GN! Reader.

Notes: Hope ya’ll like this :D

Warning: None.

Aether

When his eyes lands on your sleeping figure he can’t help but smile at the sight. At least you didn’t wait for him like usual or else he would’ve scolded you for staying up so late. His eyes trailed towards the plushie you’re holding in between your arms and chest and couldn’t help but pout. How dare the plush take his spot in your arm? That’s his spot!

Making his way to his respective side of the bed, he slowly tries to remove the plush from your arms. What he didn’t expect is you whining in your sleep and tightened your hold around the plush, making it impossible for Aether to remove it. Letting out a frustrated sound, all he wanted is to be in your arms after a tiring day, he didn’t expect to be replaced by a plush.

“What does the plush have that I don’t?”

Albedo

Letting out a yawn as he check the time on the wall clock near the door, it was almost midnight. You should be asleep by now. Making his way to your shared room, he was met with the sight of you cuddling with your plush. Blinking twice before letting out a small smile. What an adorable sight to behold. If only he had his kamera with him, too bad he accidentally left it on his desk.

After changing into his nightwear clothes, he scooted over to the space behind you. Laying down and wrapping his arm around you, pulling you to his chest while placing a kiss on top of your head. Contentedly seeking refuge at the back of your neck, not at all minding you cuddling with your plush.

“Sweet dreams, my beloved.”

Ayaka

Sighing in relief as she finally finished all of her tasks today, stretching out her arms as she makes her way towards her room to have a deserved rest. Sliding open the door, her eyes widened at the sight of her s/o on her bed, cuddling with one of Ayaka’s plush. The familiarity of the plush in her lover’s arms brought memories of how they won it for her in one of the festivals they went to.

Surprised as she may be at the sudden appearance of her s/o, it wasn’t an unpleasant one. Quickly changing her clothes to a more comfortable ones, she sat down at the edge while weaving her hands through their hair. Feeling someone’s hands in your hair, you slowly opened your eyes to see the smiling face of the Shirasagi Himegimi. Letting go of the plush so that she can sneak herself into your arms, making herself comfortable immediately in your arms.

“I didn’t expect you to visit me. You must’ve been waiting for me for quite a while now huh? Goodnight, my beloved.”

Eula

Steps as light as a feather, heels lightly clicking under the wooden floor of the house as she makes her way to the bedroom while removing the accessories adorning her outfit. Her head was aching after dealing yet again the hateful comments and glares of the townspeople. Wanting to be in her lover’s arms already, she fastened her pace and quietly opened the door. Her gaze landing on her s/o’s figure on the bed while cradling the plush in their arms.

Sighing amusingly, her lips quirking up, she did her nightly routine before going in bed with them. Staring at the plush for a couple of seconds before trying to take it away from your hold, the only thing that’s allowed in your arms is her and her only! She clicked her tongue when she noticed you tightening your hold around the plush. She can’t believe she’s been beaten by a plush! A plush! The nerve of this plush to her take her place!

“Vengeance will be mine. Just you wait, you little midget.”

Childe

First reaction when his eyes landed on you holding your plush in between your arms was to take a picture with his kamera, and so he did. Taking a few pictures before gushing at how adorable you look. This is just what he needed after coming back from a stressful mission from the Fatui. A moment for him to unwind after all that fiasco.

After changing his outfit to a more comfortable ones, he climbed into bed with you. Laying on his side to face you, who was still holding the plush in your arms, and laid his arm around you. Not at all minding the plush that was separating him from you, leaning forward to press a kiss on your forehead. He might also press a kiss on the plush if he feels like it (i just think he will treat the plush like his kid-).

“Sweet dreams to you both. Don’t let the monsters bite.”

Gorou

All he wanted to do is to fall flat on his bed, with you by his side, and snooze the night away. Tension was always high in the resistance group, no one dares to let their guard down as any time the vision hunt decree could strike. Rubbing his eye with his palm as he enters his tent, which he shares with you. Smiling at the sight of your sleeping figure peacefully laying on the mattress. His eyes shifted to the plush your holding and couldn’t help but let out a growl.

Making his way towards you, he swift takes away your plush from your hold, not giving you any time to object. Which effectively woke you up, the sudden action making you stir awake to meet the annoyed gaze of your lover as his tail shifts behind him. Blinking at him in confusion, your eyes trailed to the plush he carelessly threw on the floor and let out a laugh. Huffing at your amusement in his action, he crawled into your arms and you welcomed him.

“You’re only allowed to cuddle with me, okay? Not that impostor.”

Hu Tao

Lets out a chuckle when her gaze meets the sight of her precious cradling the ghost plush she gave you awhile back. She had decided to visit you for a nightly cuddle, but she didn’t expect to see this sight before her. Humming a familiar tune under her breath, she makes her way to you with a dangerous glint in her eyes.

Taking off her hat and setting it down on a table by the side carefully, she stretches her fingers as she gets near to your sleeping figure. In one swift motion, she takes the plush from your hold and replaced the loss cuddling partner with her. Wrapping her arms around you as she giggles when you tightened your hold around her, she smiled contentedly. Turning to the side and sticking a tongue out to the plush, she giggles quietly.

“Boo~ sorry, I won this round~”

Kazuha

Smiling at the sight of you peacefully sleeping on the bed in your shared room in the Crux Fleet, his gaze shifted to the plush in your arms. Seeing the plush brought back memories of him and you in Inazuma, the short time you two spent together on the land of Eternity was something he deeply cherished. The plush was one of your memento of your time with him in that land.

Laying on the opposite side while putting an arm around you, he pulled you close and pressed feather-like kisses on the back of your neck. Smiling contentedly when he hears you humming and calling his name sleepily. He lets you roll to face him, leaving the plush and putting your arms around him instead. Accepting your embrace immediately as he press a kiss on your forehead.

“I guess that plush is a good use whenever I’m not around. Though I would prefer if you would just go and get me instead.”

Scaramouche

Glares at the plush with such hatred when he noticed you holding the said-plush. The plush had the audacity to look at him with an innocent look on his face while being cradled by you. If only he could punish him just like how he punished the other Fatui members, alas you forbid it stating that the plush means so much to you.

Clicking his tongue as he made his way towards you with heavy thuds, he promptly grabs the plush from your hold, ignoring how you whine at the loss of your cuddling partner. Staring at the beady eyes of it as he made a threatening statement before tossing it away behind him on the floor. He laid down on his side, ignoring how you woke up and wrapped his arms around you. Already closing his eyes and not paying attention to your protests.

“Tsk, quiet you fool. Don’t you want a good night’s rest? Ignore that plush, you have me. Now sleep.”

Thoma

Cooing at you being adorable again, he can’t help but skip towards you and press kisses on your face. Smiling when you stirred in your sleep but didn’t wake, and finally pressed one final kiss before doing his nightly routine. He doesn’t mind that your cuddling with a plush, after all, he gave you that plush for that purpose! Though he does admit that the way your holding the plush makes him a bit jealous…

Finishing up his last routine, he takes his place in front of you and wrapped his arms around you. The plush in between your chests as he press a kiss on your lips and on the plush’s forehead. A cute gesture before promptly removing it and placing it down on the bedside table. The purpose of it is to cuddle with you if he’s not around, but since he’s around, it’s rendered useless for now.

“Lovely dreams, my (queen/king). May your dreams be filled with happiness.”

Hello, can I request prompt 4 on the Touching prompt series with Amber? :D

quite a short one im afraid :(( sorry it took so long, as i said, ive not been well the past few days, so im a little backlogged on updates. hope you enjoy it regardless!

pick-me-up

gn!reader x amber

PROMPT REQUEST SERIES requested! fluff, comfort, established relationship au

WARNINGS: none, ALSO ive tried including neopronouns in my works, hope you enjoy :))

synopsis: amber cheers you up after an all-nighter studying for your wind gliding license exam.

amber the outrider was amiably known all around mondstadt for her quirky, joyful personality. you often watched in awe as your lover leaped and soared in the skies above the anemo nation with her wind glider. yourself, in stark contrast, were not so agile in the air, having failed your gliding license exam multiple times. the dreary weather reflected your mood as you once again finished up your revision. it was embarrassing to be the partner of a wind gliding champion when you couldn’t glide yourself, you wished you could join amber on her expeditions and share the joy of gliding together.

“you didn’t stay awake all night again, did you?”, the girl sighed while shaking her head disapprovingly as she saw your miserable expression, wrapping her arms around you, swaying your bodies gently. “don’t worry about it, y/n! you already have the skill, just believe in yourself a little.”. you lifted your head to look up at her. as much as you wanted to have a little bit of hope, this same order of events was a continuous thing for you, so the thought of even getting within arm’s reach of your license seemed impossible.

coaxing you out of your melancholy, you walked with amber through the city, your hands holding one another tightly while the cool breeze brushed your skin. “why don’t we go get some food, hm? i hate to see you so down on yourself.”, amber’s posture perked up as you neared the good hunter. you weren’t in much of an eating mood, but judging by how your lover’s free hand hovered over her stomach, with her eyes beaming at the sight of the restaurant’s menu, you had no other option than to agree. plus, a much needed energy booster seemed delightful right now, the bags under your eyes vouching for you on it.

“ah, hello amber, y/n!” sara, the waitress of the restaurant waved as you both graced the desk. “what’ll it be today then?”. you both placed your orders - though you opted for a rather small meal - and then headed over for a table to sit at together.

sitting opposite you, amber reached over to grab your hand, caressing it gently as if it were her most prized possession. placing a kiss on your knuckles, she spoke softly, “don’t dwell on the exam today, i want to see my love’s beautiful smile!”. her lips lingered on your skin momentarily, inviting a warm, fuzzy feeling of love to swell in your heart. you tried to hold back the smile threatening your lips; despite whatever bad mood you were in, amber could always melt away the sadness just by being with you. “awww! there xe is!”, she cooed as your face lit up.

your sappy exchange was soon interrupted though, as sara arrived at your table with your food, amber practically salivating as the dishes were placed in front of you both. “wow, if i didn’t know you, i’d think you were more in love with that steak than you are with me.”, you teased, getting a playful kick from under the table.

When you reject them

characters; Scaramouche, Kazuha, Childe, Yoimiya, Hu Tao

;contains a quite a few story spoilers! And a little yandere at Scara's part.

Zhongli, Ganyu and Ayaka were here originally but god idk what flaw i could use against disciplined peeps to get reader to dump them shshhsshs

Scaramouche

Ah. Of course.

This isn't the first time someone had rejected who he truly was. Who in the right mind would love a mere puppet? Maybe he shouldn't have revealed this truth he oh so despises.

He thought, that maybe, you were different, that you'd accept him and his feelings, not as The Balladeer or as the Shogun's prototype, but as Kunikuzushi, the forevermore chalked embodiment with a soul longing for appreciation.

But boy, was he wrong.

"I'm sorry, Kuni-, I mean, Scaramouche. But I simply wish to live in peace with my family." His arms stiffed under your sorrowful gaze as you handed him back the bouquet he bought for you. "And, being with you will prevent me from doing that."

"...I see." He looked away as he somehow heard his heart crack into small pieces.

"D-don't get me wrong!" You flailed your arms in concern, "You're a good person! But, I'm afraid I can't overlook your title as a Harbinger..."

You both had gone silent after. Well what could you say? You can't just apologize for breaking a man's heart. Especially to someone who's already as fragile as he is.

You felt your eyes widen when he slowly started approaching your figure. "What are you-"

You were cut off as he patted your head with a small rare smile upon his features.

"It's okay. Your cautiousness is one of the things I liked about you after all." He retracted his hand as he stepped back, slowly donning his hat once again. "I guess, this is farewell, as Kunikuzushi atleast." You noticed his hand gripped the bouquet tightly as he bowed towards you, before he turned around and started walking away, leaving you under the falling petals of sakuras.

What did he mean by "atleast"?

Kazuha

He slowly writhed in pain as he looked at you interact with Gorou. You both looked terribly down for each other, it was so obvious that you harbored feelings for each other that the whole resistance army ships you both.

He clutches the bamboo flute you had made for him specifically in his hand, reminding himself that not all hope has been lost, especially with the look of adoration you adorned him with as he played the flute during a sunset in Watatsumi Island.

"Y/n." You heard him call out from up the trees as you were making your way towards the camp.

"Oh, Kazuha." You smiled as you waved at him, which he took as signal to jump down in front of you.

"There's something I wanna tell you."

"What a coincidence. Me too!" You laughed a bit, too giddily...he thought. "You can go first though."

"I- uh, no. You can go first." He scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. Could you possibly be...?

"O-oh well, actually..." You put your arms behind your back as your face flushed a bit. Kazuha gulped at your actions. Are you actually gonna...?

"Me and Gorou started dating!" You giggled happily, as he froze in shock, but alas, you didn't notice. "I actually wanted to tell you this quite a bit ago, since you're a close friend of ours, but-"

The rest of your words were tuned out as Kazuha stood completely still, not quite processing your words.

"You guys...are dating...?" He repeated, still not believing.

You stopped your babbling as you looked at him with a raised brow. "Yeah...we are. Are you okay? You don't look too well." You stepped closer to inspect his horrified look.

His doubts and thoughts spiraled as he tried to wrap his head around those words. He couldn't believe it. No way, he can't. He couldn't believe that...

he had lost you to him already. (this isn't really a rejection but i can't hurt my boy like that)

Childe

"Bleeghhhh! You'll never catch me!" Ajax stuck out a tongue as he dodged a snowball you had threw at him. "You always speak way to soon!" You ran behind a rock to dodge one of his throws as you scooped up another batch of snow.

Playing with him, never felt cold. Even in the everlasting cold winters in Schneznaya, simply being in his presence was warm and delightful, almost like a fireplace, haha. Kinda ironic, considering the sudden chill you felt down to the very bottom of your being when he walked past you silently after missing in the forest for 3 days straight.

He changed.

Just what had happened during those 3 days? It all still remains a mystery to you and his neighbourhood.

You frowned as he appeared before you once again, this time wearing an all too familiar uniform. Way proudly. Too proudly.

"Of course, you became a Harbinger. Of course." You sighed, disappointed with his choices. Where was the boy you loved who would always bring hot bread from his home to yours? And who was this man named Childe, in front of your doorstep?

"I-" His smile fell at your expression. "Aren't you proud?" You looked down at your feet as you spoke up, "I...how could i be proud? When you're now affiliated with the Fatui, as one of their lords at that?"

He blinked. Was this because he had stopped playing with you a few years back? "Are you...angry with me joining them?"

You looked at his lightless eyes as you cupped his face with gentle hands. "It's more like...I feel sad."

"About what?"

"It's nothing you have to worry about." You stepped back onto the other side of the doorstep, keeping your silent pleas for him to come back near your heart, long decided to be unsaid. "It's better to not be know, as it'll probably affect your line of work." You smiled as you tried to close the door, but suddenly his hand had stopped it.

"What are you saying?? I came here since I felt that..." He frowned. "That you felt the same way."

"What way? You mean loving you?"

"Yes."

"Childe." You stared at him blankly. "I'm engaged."

And he fell down into misery, yet again.

Yoimiya

"The fireworks are as spectacular as always, Yoimiya." You lifted your gaze to the sky blooming with colorful lights, "It seems you've went after a romantic theme for today." You say as you spotted multiple heart-shaped explosions in the sky.

"Oh, that's- uhmm..." Yoimiya looked down at her feet, with an uncharacteristically shy voice. "It's just..."

"Oya?" You felt your lips tug into a smirk. "Did our Queen of Narukami find herself a little crush? Mind telling me who has the honor of catching the attention of her majesty?"

"Eh???!" Her eyes widened as she felt herself get hotter.

"Pfft, you should really look at yourself right now." You laughed a bit at her sudden shyness.

"D-do you really wanna know who it is?"

You blinked at her demeanour. "Not if you're uncomfortable with it."

"It's fine." She put down her sparklers as she stood up, fully taking the view of the fireworks. "This person...has always been by my side." She started. "They...had always supported me with my passion for fireworks. Even though I failed many times, resulting in some severe burns, they were always the one patching me up, and telling me that I shouldn't give up, even if I didn't plan to, hehe."

You felt your chest tighten as you connected the dots. There's no way she's talking about...

"Hey, Y/n." She turned to you with a smile that mirrors the beauty of the fireworks, "I like you. I really do."

"..."

"I already know...that you like Ayaka, but...!"

"Yoimiya." You halted her words. You felt your mood dampen with the visible hurt in her eyes. "I...only see you as a sister of mine. I don't think i can-" You sighed, not wanting to have to tell her this way. "I don't think i can see you as anything beyond that."

You could only watch as she smiles to herself, and silently cry, knowing she'd never win against an actual princess.

Hu Tao

"Ah-!" You exclaimed as you felt something heavy jump on you from behind.

"Hello, my lovely Y/n!" She giggled as she stuck on to you like a koala, "Nice to see you today!"

You sighed as pried her off from you. "Hu Tao, not now. I'm busy." You heard her huff as she crossed her arms.

"Collecting debts is sooo boring! Why don't you come work at the parlor instead?" She winked at you, as if she just suggested some completely genius. "I'll give you an extra bonus on your pay if you bring new customers, ehe!"

"Stop disrupting my work. Besides, the Tsaritsa has given me enough money already."

"Then why continue working for themmmmm, boo hooo!"

"Hu Tao, just leave me alone. I don't feel like dealing with you today."

She felt a pang in her heart, yet her smile didn't waver. "Oh, come on! Just admit it, you like me being around-"

"No. You're annoying." You stated as you looked towards her. "I seriously don't get why you keep going after me. Can't you go annoy someone else, like Zhongli?"

Her ruby eyes widened at your harsh words. "I-I just wanted to-"

"To cheer me up?" You fixed your position to fully face her. "Being in the Fatui has shown me all the ugly sides of this world. You're only constantly reminding me of my siblings that I'll never see again."

Hu Tao looked down at her feet, knowing fully well that she did nothing but pester you.

"My anger towards you right now may be misplaced, but you'll need to know that I also need space."

"I already know all of that." She spoke up, with a new determined look in her orbs. "It's precisely why I keep insisting you to be with me so you could be happy. You're all alone...and i just wanted to change that."

You frowned at her words, "Why are you trying so hard to-"

"Because I love you!"

Your eyes widened as she gritted her teeth. "I've always loved you!"

"Hu Tao."

"-Ever since that time you found me at Wuwang hill, and helped me move on from my grandfathe-"

"Hu Tao."

She looked up with tears prickling her eyes.

"If I were the same person all those years ago, I would've accepted your confession with no question." You looked down at your own feet this time,

"But unfortunately, I'm not the same as I used to be."
