on a sunny day — amber
pairing: amber/gn!reader (romantic)
category: bittersweet + modern!au + falling out of love + implied breaking up
a little summary: it’s a little bit sad when you think the one that would stay by your side forever turns out to be the one to leave.
note: @xiaophobic happy birthday, here is ur angst<3 !!
love is a fragile feeling.
amber should’ve definitely known that by now. of course she should. one might compare it to a flower that you grow and take care of and then it blooms beautifully, but the moment you start to neglect it, it slowly starts to die.
she wasn’t really expecting it to end like this — hell, she wasn’t expecting your relationship to end at all. but now you’re here, standing in front of her and she feels like she’s falling. you still look as beautiful as always, yet there is a gentle sorrow swimming in your eyes and she knows you want to say you’re sorry.
“don’t say you’re sorry,” she whispers, her voice cracking, “don’t say you’re sorry for doing what’s the best for you. don’t be sorry for putting your well-being first,” she says.
she’s still looking out for you. of course she is. you guess some things never change, but a part of you wants her to scream at you. wants her to be angry.
you’re sorry. you’re sorry for falling out of love, because you tried so hard. you’re so sorry, because you don’t know why it happened.
the question is, is there any way to keep the flower alive forever? of course there isn’t — it’s not possible. every one of them will wilt sooner or later, no matter how hard you try and care for it. does that mean there isn’t any kind of love that would stay till the end?
perhaps there is — amber desperately wants to believe there is. there has to be. she wants to hold onto that thought, that maybe it just wasn’t the right time. maybe, just maybe, it could’ve worked out in another universe. or maybe even in a couple of years. but not now. she knows it’s not gonna work out.
“so... that’s it, huh?” she laughs quietly. there is a kind of pain that in that sound that tears your heart apart. you love her, you still do — but it’s not the kind of love it was before.
there is no use in trying to force a flower to bloom again when it already wilted.
she’ll miss you more than anything. of course she will, but, if that makes you happier, she supposes she’s a little bit happy too. no matter how much it will hurt.
Calling a canon bisexual woman a lesbian becuase she has a female love interest or is in a wlw relationship is bisexual erasure and biphobic!!!!
HUGS MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER.
characters: mona, hu tao, fischl.
anon said: Hello! May I request Mona, Hu Tao, and Fischl with an s/o who asks for a hug when they're upset? Gender neutral reader, please! :)
warnings: reader having a bad day.
love note: sometimes you just need hug, and that's okay! I know these sweeties would give amazing hugs and help you feel better. I hope you all enjoy!
ੈ♡‧➝ MONA
What? Of course Mona didn't use her astrology powers to see how your day would go, that would be... ridiculous... ahem, she's already got open arms when you enter the home!
Her hugs are gentle, and make you feel at peace, calming your racing heart and watering eyes.
She'll kiss the top of your head/cheek/wherever she can, and squeeze you for a second. She'll hug you for as long as you need, whether it be five seconds or five hours.
You trudge through the door, head hung low and heart heavy with sorrow from the long, terrible day you had. You sniffle, trying hard not to cry. "Mona, could I have a hug?" You ask, lifting your head and seeing she's already got her arms open. You relax a bit already, walking over and falling into her embrace. "How'd you know?"
"I know everything," She states matter-of-factly, her heart sinking as you bury your face into the crook of her neck. "Well, almost everything... Do you want to talk about it?" She asked, and you shake your head, hugging her tighter.
"No," you mumble, "can we just stay here, like this, for a little longer?" Mona hums, pressing a kiss to your temple.
"Of course, my starlight." She whispers against your temple, before tightening her hug. She rubs small circles into your back, allowing you to cry if you need— it's not healthy to hold in your emotions, Mona let you know this once before, so if you need to cry she hopes you'll allow yourself to do so.
At some point you pull away, sniffling and smiling weakly. "Thank you, Mona." You take her hands and a pink hue dusts her cheeks. "Let's go to bed now," Mona agrees, following you to the bedroom. She makes sure to cuddle you the entire night, and her mind doesn't cease until she's planned out tomorrow— she plans on taking you out on a cute date.
ੈ♡‧➝ FISCHL
Fischl will frown when she notices your saddened mood, and when you ask for a hug? She'll agree instantly (a soft blush on her features as she holds you)!
Her hugs are tight, nearly breath-takingly so! She'll apologize if she notices and loosen her grip, but her hugs are still so tight, and protective, you'll definitely feel safe in her arms!
Fischl isn't sure what happened, and she won't push you to tell her, but if you want to then she'll be there to listen— she knows what it's like when people don't listen, so she's always ready to lend a listening ear!
"Fischl?" Your voice is quiet, nearly inaudible, but she hears and turns around, a giant smile at seeing you however it's quick to fade when she sees your head hanging and a troubled look on your face. "Could you... could you hug me?"
Her eyes widen, a small pink blush taking place on her cheeks. A hug? From her? She takes quick strides to where you are and hugs you tightly, wrapping her arms around you and squeezing warmly. "You seem troubled, but worry for naught, for I, Fischl, Prinzessin der Verurteilung, am but a great listener, for if thou shall need to speak of such troubles, I will lend thou an ear."
"I don't really wanna talk about it right now, is it okay if we just hug a bit longer?" She nods meekly, her grip tightening but you don't mind, it feels warm and safe, and it's not too suffocating this time! You chuckle at the thought of past hugs with Fischl, your worries slowly fading away after hugging her and remembering better times.
She smiles softly at your little laugh, although she doesn't ask what brought it upon you, instead she remains hugging you until you pull away and smile gently at her, although she can still something is troubling you, she can tell it's less so thanks to the affection. "Thank you, Fischl."
"But of course, it shan't do for me to leave you in such a state! Thou hast my fullest attention!" She puts her hand over her heart, an earnest and sincere look in her eyes. She doesn't plan on leaving your side till she knows for a fact that you're back to your usual self.
ੈ♡‧➝ HU TAO
Hu Tao won't notice that you're upset at first, in her usual playful attitude until your voice cracks as you ask for a hug, no longer able to keep up pretending to be fine.
Her hugs are so warm, and she has a hard time letting go once she's started hugging you! She won't let go until she knows you're feeling better, she can't stand someone so close to her feeling like this!
Hu Tao will try and crack jokes to also try and get your mind off of whatever is upsetting you, although how affective they are depends on your sense of humor!
Hu Tao laughed at her own joke, when she stopped, noticing you were no longer by her side. "Huh? Y/n, what are you doing?" She turned around to see you standing there, unable to meet her eyes although she could see tears glistening in yours and she felt a pang of guilt for not noticing earlier. "Ah, is everything okay?"
"Hu Tao... Can you hug m-" You don't even finish your sentence, her arms wrapped around you tightly, she nearly knocking you both over but instead twirling. You sniffle, and if you need to cry, she allows you, not saying a word as you two hug.
She'll begin cooing, pulling away and looking you in the eyes, cupping your cheeks. "What's wrong? Did something happen— should I get the funeral parlor a new customer?" You chuckle, shaking your head and wiping at your eyes.
"No, I just... it's been a long day," You mumble, deciding to tell her later what was upsetting you, knowing if you tell her now you'll only grow more upset and possibly start crying. "Can we go home? I'm a bit tired."
"Of course!" She intertwines her fingers with yours, pressing a cheeky kiss to your hand before heading towards the shared home. She keeps checking on you, and trying to tell jokes; some of them land, others not exactly, but either way, you're happy you've got the jokester with you, to help lighten your mood!
Okay Alice I’ll indulge in your soft Signora fantasies.
Imagine lounging on a pool floatie with Signora whilst floating down the lazy river. It’s one of those large lie down ones and you’re situated in between her legs as you both relax in the sun. Her hands are running deftly through your hair as she has never thought you looked more stunning in her arms.
That all changes however when you two suddenly lose balance and flip over. The two of you flopping into the water like the two idiots that you are ❤️ but that’s okay, because she still thinks you look stunning ❤️❤️ Even when your hair is everywhere and you both look like a mess.
~ 📐
angel you’re the best :(( you know i’m so tiny. she’s lounging on her back atop the floatie; meanwhile laying on her with your back to the sky and head on her shoulder :(( being so sleepy even at the pool and she’s raking her fingers through your hair, which is still dry
and as for the second part, well, we already talked about it HAHA :
Keep reading
Hey! Tysm for my last ask. If it isn't to much, can I ask for a y/n that feels like no one could love them? W hu tao and whatever characters you like. (Tysm I love ur writing aaa)
Synopsis: y/n that feels no one could love them :(
Warnings: kinda angsty, but it’s more comfort fluff.
Game/ fandom: genshin impact
Characters: hu tao, and kaeya
Pronouns for reader: gender neutral/ not mentioned
A/n: I’m really glad you like my writing! <3
— Hu tao —
I think she really sympathizes with you, not many people like her, for her… joking at the wrong time personality, if that makes sense?
I think she’s a very… loving person in a relationship though, very clingy if you get my drift. So you’ll never feel unloved in the relationship… like ever.
Definitely makes your heart flutter with all the things she does everyday.
— kaeya —
Ohohohoho
1. Completely understands your feelings, for the longest time he felt he was unworthy of love, let alone life.
And 2. Because of that, he’s like hu tao, where he reminds you that you’re lived, and deserve love.
He’s a very touchy guy, so if your main live language is physical touch, that works amazingly for him. If not, that’s fine too, there’s other ways to show you you’re loved. Kaeya doesn’t mind, he just wants to make you happy
Hello-since requests are open-could I request for a reader with same personality as Albedo with Xiangling,Xingqiu,Hu Tao and Xiao as their S/O(seperate ofc)-
⭑ note ; i love albedo (>﹏<) cant wait for his rerun <33
꩜ warning[s] ; n/a!
𖥻 synopsis ; (char.) with an s/o who has the same personality as our chalkprince albedo.
ᜊ characters ; xiangling , xingqiu , hu tao , xiao
— as the saying goes , opposites attract and likes repel
— whereas you prefer to stay within your little circle of comfort , xiangling loves interacting with others ! i mean , her job practically relies on those social interactions she has with people
— although , more or less , you both share an equal interest in discovering new things and exploring endless possibilities that come with your interests
— she appreciates your intellect a lot ! however .. half the very knowledgeable things you quote out at her go through one ear and out the other - she’s not meaning to be rude but she just can’t understand it :’) poor thing
— she has no problem in taking the lead in public conversations , especially if she senses your feelings of discomfort
— sometimes when she’s cooking up some new recipes to force make you try she asks you to talk about some of your experiments or the new art piece she saw you working on earlier in the day , the way you talk is just very relaxing and allows her to concentrate !
— xiangling deals with countless different people that have unique personalities (she’s friends with keqing lolol) so your reclusive personality wasn’t short of lovable and your attitude towards the things you loved was something she shared in common with you (although her happiness comes from cooking)
— absolutely loves you through and through <33
— what can i say apart from that he absolutely adores you ??
— out of all the books xingqiu has read in his time , the words on the pages couldn’t rival the words you spoke when you talked about the things you were fond of
— xingqiu is polite and takes his studies rather seriously so you two get along extremely well especially during those evenings where you’re both doing your own thing in quiet but you’re still enjoying each others presence
— another one that has no problem in leading a conversation if you’re not up for it - he can get rather talkative out of nowhere even if others see him as more of a reserved person
— unlike you , xingqiu is very sociable (that sounded so mean imsorrymeetoothosodw) so whenever you have a commission that requires extensive socialising he isn’t afraid to ask you if he could join you on your travels
— if you’re also into art he will pester you about drawing a comic for him until you eventually give in :)) nothing would make him more happy than if his own lover’s work was to garner attention <3
— now , xingqiu is a wealthy ass mf and though he’s very carefree he won’t hesitate to use that said wealth into helping you with your experiments; things like buying equipment aren’t a problem at all !
— on the other hand , he’s still waiting for the day he gets a bigger response from you than just an “oh?” when he attempts to prank you with something rather stupid but lighthearted
— nothing his worked so far and honestly he’s thinking of going back to using chongyun as his personal guinea pig until he can think of a proper way to get a reaction out of you (♯`∧´)
— if you decide to indulge his playful antics he will literally attack you with love , tho your reaction is fake the smile on your face was something he wouldn’t forget <33
— oh my when they said ‘opposites attract’ you two took that to a whole new level..
— people question your relationship all the time , i mean she’s rather bold and confident whilst you’re introverted and withdrawn surely that wouldn’t work that well ??
— well to most people’s surprise , it works out pretty well ! you’re both the perfect balance for each other , while hu tao tries to uplift your confidence and helps you interact with others you help her slow down and enjoy the simpler things in life
— if you couldn’t tell already , she will talk 99.9% of the time and it’s never out of disrespect or ignorance she just simply loses track of the things she says and whenever she gets to spend time with you she wants to make sure you’re never bored !!
— don’t ever worry about being put in stressful situations where you have to speak an overbearing amount because hu tao will take the role as your mouthpiece to a hyperbolic extent
— she’s not always the fun and social hu tao though , on some other days all she wants to do is wind up in bed with you whilst you read her a story her grandpa used to read to her before going to bed
— enjoys all the things you talk about even if she knows practically nothing about it , it’s just enjoyable to hear you talk about the things you’re so knowledgeable about it (she loves the cute expressions you make whilst trying to explain things too)
- yet , being hu tao’s s/o no matter what your personality is will never let you run away from her foolish pranks and antics that you’ve been caught up in countless of times
— do they ever work ? no. do you pretend to have some sort of reaction out of politeness and love? ..yeah
— definition of ‘when neither you or your friend can order over the phone’
— xiao loves you??sm?? he thought you weren’t real at first because whenever you spaced out about your own thoughts and ideas you just didn’t respond to him (he was kinda sad abt it too)
— his entire long life he’s met people who are way too confident and hubristic - people that bare their titles with such arrogant pride that it makes him ill
— but when it came to you , he didn’t have to deal with anything of the sort. he was met with calm passion for something you truly enjoyed , he was truly grateful he met someone normal for once
— i mean .. sort of normal ? if you count those times where you asked him to gather lizard tails , sango pearls and qingxins for some strange medical concoction to be normal occurrences then sure !
— neither of you like to socialise with others (your reasons differ from one another) but since he’s a lil emo 💔😈 you’re most likely going to have to do all the talking unless he’s feeling up to it unfortunately that’s most likely going to be never
— doesn’t mind how introverted you are at all , i mean he’s practically the same as you having your peaceful presence with him at all times puts his mind at ease :))
— to his surprise his karmic debt hasn’t been intoxicating his health for a rather long while and he wonders if it’s the soothing effect you have on him
— words aren’t that important to xiao , but whenever you do open up about anything especially things that interest you he is more than delighted to lend an ear and listen to the things you want to share
— he does remember everything you tell him btw :]
— if he ever gets a nightmare (believe me he gets them on the regular) he tries his best to hint at the fact he wants you to talk to him about anything that would help him get his mind off of it
— doesn’t matter what you speak about , just as long as his arms are around you making sure you’re safe <3

Childhood friends to Lovers troupe with Keqing, Ayaka, Yoimiya, Lisa, and Kokomi? Thank you 🙏🙏
Characters: Keqing, Ayaka, Yoimiya, Lisa, Kokomi x gn!reader
Warnings: none
A/n: Ah simple yet one of my favorite troupes to write for 😎
• You watched Keqing grow up from a young girl to a remarkable woman. Liyue’s Yuheng nonetheless was achieved by nothing short of her power and tenacity.
• Keqing had two favorite people growing up, you and her Grandfather. Nobody could deal with her stuck-up attitude, so she naturally only got close to you with her Grandfather no longer present.
• She didn’t depend on anyone, not even the Archons themselves. But the more you relied on her, she found herself relying on you. It’s not like she needed you, but socially you two isolated yourselves in a little bubble from the rest of Liyue.
Keqing was always unintentionally harsh with her words, her title as Yuheng didn’t necessarily help. Because of these two factors, many decided actively to keep their distance from her. That was except you, even as she grew older and her words grew harsher, you never left her side.
You sat together enjoying dinner at Wanmin after a night of endless shopping, two of Keqing’s favorite pastimes. Suddenly she began to get sentimental, “I often reminisce on the times when we were children. And I’d like to thank you for sticking by my side.” She was speaking oddly formal with you.
“Of course Keqing, you don’t have to thank me,” you could tell she didn’t believe your words of dismissal.
“No really, I feel you could do so much more. Spend your nights achieving great things in Liyue. But our relationship prevents you from networking,” she looked shameful. “It's just as others say, if I never had this spiteful personality I’d be more approachable. And with you by my side, others assume the worst.”
“Then pay no attention to them,” you held her hand from across the table. “Why do you think I’ve been with you since childhood? Without you, I am not complete.”
“Then I’ll hold you accountable,” she blushed slightly at your bold statement. You were determined to shed her if her insecurities of you.
• When Ayaka’s parents passed at such a young age, you were the only one there for her as support. Ayato as the eldest son was far too busy to deal with Ayaka.
• You remember all her sleepless nights crying in your arms when she realized her mother was never coming back. You sympathized with her becoming her closest friend.
• She grew up to become the Shirasagi Himegimi- a literal princess is Inazuma. Even though you had undeniable feelings for her, you felt you couldn’t even hold a candle to her greatness.
With the announcement of the Vision Hunt Decree, the Yashiro Commission grew hectic. Ayaka being the head of the snake to the rebellion on Narukami Island, grew stressed and unstable. At one point she found herself outside your room late at night, like when you were younger.
You two lay facing each other, although you were much older, Ayaka still found comfort when sleeping beside you. She reached for your empty hand, embracing the warmth of it. “Remember when we were younger, we would sleep together frequently? that was nice.”
“I do remember,” you said, your heart racing out of your chest. Since then much had changed, including your feelings towards Ayaka.
“I wish we could do this more often. I miss sleeping beside you,” you wondered if she meant it. And if she did, did she understand the connotation behind it? That you two weren’t children anymore, and how two adults don’t sleep in the same bed without underlying meanings.
She closed her eyes and you heard light breathing from her. After a couple of minutes, you assumed her idle figure was asleep already, and you couldn’t help yourself but shuffle a little closer to her body. Closing your own eyes before you heard a gentle, “thank you for allowing me to sleep here for the night, I love you,” From her.
• Yoimiya as a young girl was naive and nothing more than trouble. She would get herself in scrimmages because of folklores she heard the grown-ups talking about. Often dragging you along.
• Every kid in the neighborhood wanted Yoimiya on their side, she was so popular. But something about you drew her to you. Out of everyone she would choose you, she still would even as you two grew up together.
• You two were like two peas in a pod. Yoimiya grew smarter and became the adult telling the folklores. You watched her grow up to be a fine young lady, something she was destined to be.
Yoimiya was nothing short of beautiful. The Naganohara Fireworks business booming because of her spiffy attitude and her handiwork. Everyone’s sons lined up to be wedded to her. But in her father’s eyes, nobody was qualified for her hand in marriage except you. However, in Yoimiya’s eyes, she belonged to nobody.
You both sat atop a random grassy hill on Narukami Island, Yoimiya feeling down in the dumps because of her father. Because of his poor hearing, he spoke louder than most. This time around, he yelled on the streets asking you when you were going to propose to his daughter.
Frankly, it was embarrassing for Yoimiya. You had already come to terms with your feelings for your childhood friend, yet you only pretended it bothered you for her sake. “I’m sorry about my father,” she said somberly.
“It’s no worries Yoimiya. Trust me I don’t mind,” you felt a little off lying to her. And most importantly lying to her. “You know I’m always here for you right?”
She buried her head deeper into her legs, curling into a compressed ball. “I know, I just don’t like when he acts like that. I mean, it’s crazy right?” It sounded as if Yoimiya was trying to convince herself of her own words, afraid you’d find her disgusting if you found out her mutual crush on you.
“I don’t think it’s crazy,” you admitted. She couldn’t believe her ears, but she wanted to believe it so badly.
“You really think that?” She murmured.
• Lisa was a prodigy despite her lazy attitude towards everything. No matter the importance she was always falling asleep, so you followed her to Sumeru Academy to prevent her from falling under.
• Thanks to you she stayed on top of everything, she believed she owed you a lot even though it was all her doing. She said you were moral support.
• When you both grew up you followed her to Mondstadt where you continued to be her moral support. You watched her become the Purple Rose in everyone’s hearts. It didn’t take long for Lisa’s duties to override your time with her.
“I noticed you’ve gotten closer to that traveler recently,” You mentioned dusting off some bookshelves. The past week you felt a significant difference in your relationship with Lisa. You felt she was slipping from your grasp, and your hold on her was weakening.
“Ara~ that cutie? Yeah there’s something about them that’s different from the rest, I feel as if they can save us from Stormterror’s reign.” Your teeth clenched at the nickname.
“But can we rely on an outsider? I mean, we really know nothing about them,” you hid your intentions behind your fake smile. Lisa wasn’t dumb though, growing up with you she knew exactly what game you were playing.
“Oh do I sense jealousy?” She approached closer, running her hand over your shoulders with a playful smirk. Her voice echoing with sultry through your eardrums. “Don’t get me wrong that darling has much potential, but allow me to put your mind at ease.”
She went to a small whisper in your ear, “In my eyes, nothing is more interesting than you.” She giggled lightly, her lips brushing your earlobes causing you to blush madly. “remember that okay?”
• As a young girl Kokomi was strangely introverted for how much attention she received as the future Divine Priestess. Being one of her few friends, she chose you to be her closest attendant.
• As Kokomi came to age, she had many people attempt to court her. The difference between you and them was motives. They sought Kokomi out for power, political stance, and service. You loved her for who she was but in secret.
• No matter how rich, how stunning, or how strong each candidate was, Kokomi would reject them without hesitation. You would wonder as to why, she was a budding young woman, and had much potential.
There it was, another suitor kissing the back of Kokomi’s hand as they’re sent off. You’d never openly admit it, but it killed you inside to see a bunch of random diplomats attempt to seduce your best friend. You watched from afar behind the corner. Clutching your chest you got lost in your thoughts. Why did it even bother you so much in the first place?
“Are you okay?” Kokomi inquired, you didn’t even notice her approach you. She gently grabbed your hand and took it away from your chest. “You’re always so rough with yourself, please be gentle for me.”
“Ah, sorry Kokomi. I didn’t mean to worry you,” you still found it a little hard to stray your thoughts from Kokomi.
“No worries, I’m right here,” She placed your hand on her bosom. You felt her heartbeat strongly underneath her dress. You couldn’t prevent the blush that tainted your cheeks, avoiding eye contact to tame your feelings. “Hey, what’s wrong lately? You’ve never acted like this before with me?” You hesitated, what good would confessing to Kokomi do? Worst case scenario. she rejects you and you no longer have the same relationship as you did before.
“Could it be you’ve developed a little crush on me finally?” She smirked trying to make light of the situation. You couldn’t tell if she was joking or not, her smile seemed to have a deeper meaning. Her pale blue eyes try to read your feelings through your raw reaction.
Hello-could I request for a reader who’s like Albedo-like they’re smart and wanting to understand the world around them but they’re quite shy and tends to be bad at expressing their feelings who feels comfortable being themselves around their S/O(Yoimiya,Lisa,Xingqiu and Ayaka)? Take your time with this request hope I didn’t ask too much with it-take care :)
Characters: Yoimiya, Lisa, Xinqiu, Ayaka
Warnings: none
A/n: Yes! I’m going to be honest I blew through Albedo’s story quest, but like I don’t think that will be much of a problem during the prompt.
• Yoimiya thought your studies were interesting despite you never really talking about it in general. She didn’t know what was going on but she was curious nonetheless because it was important to someone she cares about.
• Yoimiya tried to break your shy demeanor around her by chatting a lot. She would try and understand your experiments, trying to make sense of them in her head. If you ever did share a concept with her she’d compare it to the thing she knew best, “Oo oo oo I get it, so like how a firework does this right?”
• When you finally start to crack out of your shell Yoimiya couldn’t be more supportive of you, listening to your tangents about future experiments you want to perform and results of already tested ones. You always support and listen to her talk of fireworks so it wouldn’t kill to hear about yours even if she didn’t know what was happening.
Yoimiya knew you were excellent at what you did, and when she asked you for a formula for a specific firework idea she had you were overjoyed. Not visibly, but mentally you were jumping up and down when she asked for your assistance.
When you finished you showed Yoimiya your blueprints, “So this is why you have to use Agnidus agate over Varunada Lazurite, the concoction of this element with your…” you paused for a minute, the life in your voice dying. “You know what never mind it’s okay the logistics of it don’t really matter.”
“No, please continue, I was listening.” For such a dense hardheaded girl you would expect her to just zone out during explanations. But you could tell Yoimiya’s body language that she was far from your initial assumptions.
“See, I knew you were just shy,” Yoimiya said after you concluded your lecture.
“Huh?”
“You never used to even bother explaining your research to me. I’m glad though, I’ll take it as that you trust me more, and nothing could make me happier.” She giggled gleefully.
• Lisa is a smarty pants being one of Sumeru’s smartest, you didn’t even have to talk in order for her to know what you were studying. Just one glance and she knew the concept of whatever you were planning.
• She offered to help once and you accepted but during the actual experiment, she ended up just watching because you were too shy to order her around. You were just too shy to take initiative.
• Once you opened up to Lisa she would be ecstatic. Being such a confident woman herself, she found ambition and passion sexy. So you taking charge and telling her everything would not only fascinate her but make her fall in love with you even more.
You sat down in the library, writing notes about a specific alchemy test that you never had occurred to you. Lisa dragged her hands along the backrest of your chair, “What has you writing so fast, it’s barely legible.”
“Ah, I learned that you can craft things from ash,” You continued to write, that’s all you were going to say really.
“Oh? Tell me more.” Every now and then Lisa would be more intuitive about your work, she wanted to bond with you intellectually over physically or verbally.
Normally, if it were anybody else you would just give them a simple explanation, but Lisa’s energy made you feel as if you could just unwind everything to her. You rambled for it must’ve been hours and Lisa continued to sit interested as ever. She honestly enjoyed your tangents as it was two things she loved most combined. Free knowledge, and you.
“You know I think it’s cool how you only tell me these things.” She says emphasizing your exclusivity by placing her hand atop of yours.
“W-what do you mean?”
“I noticed you don’t discuss these things with anyone else, am I wrong? You love me so much don’t you cutie?”
• Xinqiu was smart too but only book smart, not philosophical. he would always be curious about what you were doing, since he’s so young he has an unquenchable desire for knowledge of any type.
• Sometimes even trying to make you open up to him by being an absolute chatterbox. He might even pull a small prank on you in an attempt to thaw your shyness.
• When you opened up to Xingqiu he felt overjoyed. He was probably more interested in what you had to say over the fact that you’ve never talked for so long in your life to another person.
You were scribbling on a large manuscript the recipe to your latest discoveries. You were so focused you failed to realize how crazy you looked to an observer. Your body hunched back while your elbow was in an odd position for writing.
You heard a light giggle, “Wow, look at you go. What has you so worked up?” Whenever you were deep in your work Xingqiu would ask you about it. Sometimes you felt like giving him a single sentence for a response, others you could talk for hours.
Literally you probably talked for hours to him. Others would just hear blah blah blah from your mouth, but he sat beside you enthralled at whatever you had to say.
His eyes were wide and he nodded at every point you made, sometimes verbally agreeing with an mhm. Other times he would chime in and ask a question.
His pure interest in your research made you feel like you weren’t a burden. The whole reason why you were so quiet was due to the fact that others would only pretend to listen to your lectures, Xingqiu however always paid the utmost attention.
“Hm, now that’s one hot take. I remember reading something about that in a book I had once picked up. Mind sharing more?”
• Ayaka was politically smart, she knew how to strategize. But your type of smart always interested her. She thought people who studied philosophies were always so admirable because they’re quite literally stepping into the unknown about their already mysterious world.
• Ayaka would just be kind and patient with you, she knew you were shy so she wouldn’t force anything from you. In fact, she was shy too. The only parallel was that whenever you two were together she would take the silence as comfortable, but you thought it was awkward.
• Ayaka was a good listener, she would let you ramble about your studies for hours without interruption and actually show moderate interest despite her lack of understanding. You appreciated that the most from her because you felt like it wasn’t a one-sided conversation.
Ayaka and you went on a gentle evening stroll outside in Chinju forest, she clung to your arm as you walked with the Shirasagi Himegimi. “Do you know why that happens?” She pointed your attention to two onikabuto beetles fighting on a nearby branch.
Occasionally Ayaka would ask questions pertaining to the world, they were always things that were ordinary that others wouldn’t normally think twice about. She would rely on you for all the answers.
You explained the natural behavior of the beetles, originally you were just going to describe why they were fighting. Then Ayaka asked you a question, which led to you describing the entire life cycle and everything in between about an onikabuto.
Ayaka’s curiosity was seemingly never-ending. And you served as a pool of knowledge that she dipped her feet in so comfortably. You too enjoyed explaining the philosophies of life.
“Wow- you know I never thought about it that way.” She clung tighter to your arm “You should talk more, it suits you.”

mona megistus was not expecting to find herself in such situation.
“we definitely should not be here right now,” you say while trying to maintain a serious face, but she sees you’re not actually concerned about what the two of you are doing. you’re giddy as you walk up the stairs and she only winks at you.
mona’s heart is beating fast and her hands feel sweaty against yours and she wonders if you noticed how nervous she is — she doesn’t think you did and she hopes it stays that way. you don’t need to know you make her breath uneven and her cheeks blushed from your mere words.
“we’re almost there,” she whispers, as if telling you a secret.

synopsis. although the stars change, some things remain the same. | requested. ♡
✧ ┊ Gentle winds blew throughout the air as the fire beneath your feet crackled. From time to time you would poke at the hot coals with a long stick... Just to watch as the end caught a small flame for you to put out. This happened quite a few times before you got bored of watching it happen over and over again.
Sitting beside you was a certain astrologist, an expression of great thought written across her face as she pressed at her circle of what seemed to be constellations of some sort. You didn't quite understand what she was so focused on but you didn't really mind. The fact you two could enjoy each other’s company like this was all that really mattered anyway.
"Can't you read the stars above?" You questioned, now leaning back to look up at the clear sky that shimmered above the two of you. From your perspective you could see the wide array of stars showing themselves to the world, twinkling and sparkling as if there was nothing wrong in this world.
"I could, but this way is much more organized and easier for me to use." The black-haired girl replied in a simple manner, not touching too much on the details of what exactly she was up to. You only nodded in reply, your attention to the stars now shifting into curiosity as you glanced over to her.
What exactly was she doing? You wondered to yourself, beginning to slightly lean into the astrologist ever so nonchalantly. From what your eyes could see, it was a mix of what seemed to be sparkling constellations being shifted and changed into whatever she wanted. It wasn't long before you were mesmerized by the colors and sparkles, your eyelids starting to become heavy.
Although she seemed unbothered by the action, Mona eventually stopped what she was. After so long of sitting like this with you, she was beginning to wonder if you were actually interested in what you were doing. "What you are doing?" She questioned, though no response was given afterwards.
After a bit of observation, it didn't take her long to realize you had fallen asleep. With your forehead lazily laying on her shoulder, body awkwardly hunched over, and breathing much heavier than usual, it was generally... Rather easy to tell.
It also didn't take her long to realize just how close you were to her.
Which of course, made her a bit flustered.
Of course, she didn't have the heart to wake you. Why would she when you looked so peaceful? Taking the alternative to keep you where you were, she kept her composure as calm as possible. Ignoring the fact her cheeks were dusted with the faintest shade of pink. Judging the way you slumped over, she also wasn't going to allow you to sleep uncomfortably. With one swift movement, she adjusted your head to lay properly on her shoulder. “Better.” She whispered to herself, content with how much more comfortable you already looked.
She quietly studied every one of your features with a certain feeling of warmth filling her chest. From how you smiled in your sleep to how the fire would flicker across your skin from time to time, she found everything about you admirable no matter what state you were in. Something about you kept her interested, even if it was another story about some slimes you ran into.
Pulling her out of her thoughts, she tensed up a bit when you began to stir from your sleep. Her head quickly snapped to look at the fire in front of you two, acting as if she wasn’t staring at you so lovingly just a moment ago. She remained quiet as she let you adjust your position to a new one she assumed you had found more comfortable. Heaving a light sigh, she could only shake her head at herself for being so flustered.
“Sleep well, Y/N.” She whispered, slowly laying her head on top of yours with a hesitant yet comforting arm around you as she began to continue finishing up tomorrows astrology column. Despite all these days traveling together, things never seemed to change between the two of you.

masterlist
• the person who let you have the last carton of eggs. you were rushing to the supermarket in an absolute frenzy; your mother wanted to make desserts, but you used up the last eggs in the house to complete a stupid ‘rubber egg’ science project of yours.
• it was already late, and the chances of the supermarket actually having anything there at all was very slim, but luck seemed to be in your favour??? lo and behold, right there in the poultry aisle, sits the last box of eggs. you could literally hear angels singing.
• well, your glorious moment was interrupted by a third party picking it up before you could. he was observing them with a critical gaze, and in a slight moment of panic, you were debating whether or not you could win against him in a fist fight.
• but as he gave you a quizzical look at your defeated expression, you opted for the second option: begging.
• it was a pitiful sight, really. you were about to get on your knees and plead at the poor guy just for the eggs. you knew your mother would be angry if you came home with nothing, and you weren’t about to risk a scolding, not today!!
• but instead, he just wordlessly handed the carton to you. no small talk, no need for you to throw your dignity to the side, nothing. it was like he could read your mind. you stood there in awe.
• you swear you could see a hint of a smirk on his face, though.
• the attractive person who was taking care of their sibling at the park. he was helping teucer climb up one of those spider web playground equipment things, and then his shirt rised up a bit and. oh. oh my god. ohhhhhh my god?!?!?
• turns out, he was your neighbour… the hot neighbour that you never noticed until now. you’ve interacted with his little siblings before, but never saw him?? and as you were having a mini crisis on a park bench, his little brother noticed you!
• you were invited to join them with a warm smile from both boys, and your heart almost skipped a beat imagining a domestic scene with the two: childe cooking a meal, while you and teucer sit at a table expectantly. ohh you hopeless romantic… imagining all these scenarios with a boy you’ve just met..
• you got attached way too quickly. you thought that childe believed the same: that you two hit it off, but apparently he didn’t. he gave you his number, but only ever initiated conversation if teucer wanted to meet up with you in the park. (the little boy had grown attached to you!) but it was never for anything else. childe never interacted with your ‘how was your day?’ texts at all.
• next thing you knew, the texts eventually faded into nothingness. you heard from a mutual friend of yours that childe started to date a new girl that moved into town, and that the two can be seen in the nearby park, acting like a sickenly sweet couple as they play tag with childe’s siblings.
• you occasionally walk by the park sometimes, and watch in envy as the girl took up the spot that you once had with the boys. it seemed as if teucer completely forgot about you; he liked the new girl more. and childe… he never once looked your way; he never saw you anything beyond a friend to begin with. childe may have never been yours, but a part of your heart still considered him to be a traitor.
