head and heart empty for a reason
thoma must be so warmTT
So is reblog is also not permitted?
That’s the difference. Reblogs are good! You promote the artist and their work.
At least for me repost is ok only in one condition: you asked permission and the artist said “yes”.
I love them uwu.
“Are they, like, some pushy uncles? Along with the defiant, hip youngster.”
they come in pairs U_U

ALBEDO is actually unfairly handsome while he’s reading books, somehow especially so whenever they’re recommended by you, he thinks you may like it, or is reminded of you while reading. sometimes you’re just chilling after he’s finished reading for the day, and it’s such a pleasant surprise when he seems to smile more and is more affectionate? he’s a lot softer than usual then for some reason, hmm…
on one day when the two of you are just relaxing together, ALBEDO lends you his sketchbook! you were expecting to see lovely drawings of the beauties of nature and all… but still, it’s a pleasant and rather flustering surprise to see as well many drawings of you. you, his muse who has shown him many of the wonders of life. and so he kisses your cheek, smiling and merely commenting that you are the most beautiful nature has to offer.
you’re not sure whether to be in a surprised or i-definitely-saw-this-coming mood when you see that CHILDE bought that one a-little-bit-too-pricey top you were eyeing… but you daren’t chastise him for it, especially seeing the genuine love in his eyes. shopping with him is always lovely, as he somehow knows what clothes will look great on you (he says all of them will, though. and he’s right btw <3).
on some really early mornings, CHILDE grins at you cheekily as you both discreetly play music in the dead of night even though you both should be sleeping. he grabs your hand, twirls you around though the song doesn’t even match his actions, and pulls you close. and, he stares in your eyes softly, with genuine love—only to smooch you quickly before twirling away and turning up the music to a louder song he prefers… it’s fun jamming to songs of both of your music tastes, dancing like no one’s watching.

[beginning] [previous part]
previously
Unknownst to you, your unspoken heart-to-heart doesn't go unnoticed. Your sudden appearance, the affiliation with Barbara, and her being able to pull off this deed.
The most interesting of affairs and quite bizarre too
Needless to say the Cavalry Captain is a curious man at heart.
---------------------------
Kaeya would have pursued you there and then, but the situation at hand called for his attention. Mondstadt's deaconess healed and here she was doing quite the opposite. Against slimes of course, but it just wasn't in her nature to be offensive. Maybe Barbara was secretly a fighter inside, but having the resolve to do anything and actually being able to it were two different things. The fact remains that she has no prior offensive conditioning.
If amature gets a hit in, you call it beginner's luck no issues but when that hit actually causes you to stagger back and cough up blood, that's when you wonder.
Getting hit? expected. But getting hurt?
how very intriguing.
With the docks still crowded, it was apparent that everyone was still processing the spectacle at hand. Barbara, who herself seemed dazed, busied herself by checking Arthur for any injuries and entertaining his gushing. It was Kaeya's emergence that caused the Knights to come back to their senses and address him.
"Sir, we were informed of slimes suddenly appearing on the docks, but as soon we arrived..."
"Disposed of by deaconess Barbara, I am aware. I suppose the knights can learn a thing or two from the Church, no?"
Slimes should not have been so close to the city in the first place.
"Since this has been taken care of, you all are to return to your previous positions and this time make sure that there no slimes approaching the city."
The execution didn't take long. Arthur too left soon after, excited to recall the happenings to his parents. This left the cavalry captain alone with the idol now turned fighter.
This this felt like a dream. She doesn't understand what came over her when she drew out her catalyst. This should not have worked, but it did. Aspirations turned into affirmations, and it felt... good. Barbara wasn't dissatisfied with her position as a healer, healing everyone that was her greatest ambition. But the clouds of doubt and dark whenever she looked upon Jean, who excelled either way.
You changed that. A spotless sky revealed itself underneath the taints of doubt. She will be sure to let you know that when she sees you again.
Clearing of a throat broke her chain of thoughts, the cavalry captain was looking at her curiously. The moment finally catches up, how is she to explain all of this?
"Captain Kaeya I-"
"That was most impressive, you plan on joining the Knights of Favonius anytime soon? Hm sister Barbara?"
Questions will be prompted, one way or another your name would be uttered. That is of course if she chooses to answer truthfully. Teyvat had its fair share of blessed, powerful individuals but nothing quite like you. Was she to let your existence be known to everyone? That wasn't her choice to make not after you just...
"I'm not here to pry answers out of you if that is what you were wondering... Mondstadt could always use more helping hands."
Then what does he-?
"But I do want something, a name if you will."
[color] hues and [color] strands, fixated in his memory. A name and then he would know what exactly you were.
"A name? Whose exactly?"
Maybe he isn't aware
"your dear friend"
... Well he is aware
Kaeya couldn't help but chuckle at her expressions, just what did you do to make her so concerned for yourself.
"I mean them no harm, just some conversation. They would like more friends here in Mondstadt no?"
Were your abilities a secret anyway? did you even want them to be a secret? Except for being a traveler, you didn't reveal much about yourself, well it's not like she asked in the first place. but then she didn't expect you to be...
What even were you?
"really I just wish to talk, they seem like quite an interesting person."
Nothing escapes the cavalry captain it seems. And indeed he leaves the dock with his objective complete. Syllables on his lips and curiosity in his being.
The brothers are more similar than they would like, different approaches but the same end goals.
[Name] just who are you?
-------------------------------
If anything you were misfortunate. Lost prayers to the scared winds? Skyward atlas? All you got from asking locals were rumors and maybe you heard someone call you a nerd underneath their breath. Like fuck you Nimrod we'll see who the nerd is when you get her to one-shot the Regisvine.
The pursuit of any good catalyst has been futile so far and there weren't many options in the first place. As a last-ditch effort, you make your way towards Marjorie. Treasures obtained from her father's adventures and her father being Cyrus 'Branch master' of the adventure's guild. If you didn't find any clues here, you might as well give up the venture entirely.
Watching you approach she greets you.
"Welcome. Every treasure here is unique, so we don't negotiate on the price, nor do we give refunds."
No refunds? well, that is reassuring.
"I just wanted to inquire about something... a notebook if you will. it's quite old."
Better to start up slow... baby steps yes
"It was called the Widsith, a notebook that was shared between the members of the Wanderers Troupe... have you heard about it? Like anything at all?"
She stops to think for a while, you halfheartedly expect another dead end.
"hmm....maybe. Not many people come up asking for actual historical trinkets, are you a historian or researcher of sorts?"
"well um...yeah I suppose you could call me a history buff of sorts but do you know anything of it?" please say yes.
"I do come across old books of sorts quite often, the one you just described... I did receive new items from some old ruins. i could check and let you know."
Finally some progress
"But it might take a while"
"o-oh yes, yes of course whenever you get it, just let me know."
You left her shop after giving her your name and deciding on a future meeting. Widsith! you almost had it! well, there was a chance that it might not be the thing itself but you were going to be optimistic. Surely the world won't be this cruel, by letting an entire day of wandering around go to waste. Whatever the end result, you were in high spirits now.
A little further was the Adventure's guild headquarters. you could ask Katheryne as well and maybe continue a winning streak.
You wait as she converses with the other adventurers. Remunerating them for completing their commissions, none of which you could recognize.
Maybe Bennet and Fischel were already done for the day.
Seeing her getting free you immediately approach her.
"...Rebooting..."
"you know you really should stop saying that. It's kinda creepy." you start with absolutely no filter.
Blue meets [color] as she turns to address you, expression unchanging but she does smile when she spots you.
"Ad Astra abyssosque [player name]" (ur genshin name FYI)
You don't do that okay, you do not pull shit like this on someone and make them question everything.
"How the fuck do you know that?"
-----------
*crawls out of box of shame*
No, I have not forgotten this blog ;-; and I'm not dead (unfortunate but I'll just have to deal with it )
End of the year, brain juice is low and I'm a bit behind my school work. Oof I've been trying to squeeze in as many classes as I can before the year ends, so yeah the struggle is real. I might have to put that Diluc soulmate isekai work on hold for a while [sorry bird anon :(].
Moving on from the sad talk
Lmao kaeya bby you and Diluc r wasting time, trying to research the player. But I suppose, given their nature, they would 100% do a background check. Mondstadt's security is at hand
*remembering that got Venti got folded in front of HIS OWN cathedral*
Yeah, some security they have. Also, I really hope Kaeya wasn't OOC ;-; peacock man is hard to write, for me at least
oh before I forget Kaeya Mains we are going with a cryo build here most probably, so I should go with a skyward blade right? recommend mondstadt weapons only pls
*crawls back into box of shame*
"Ad Astra abyssosque DilucSimp69.... are you serious?"
"I JUST WANT HIM TO COME HOME OKEY?!"
"Ad Astra abyssosque Lumine/Aether"
"...."
"you basic bitch"
"yeah I know"
"Ad Astra abyssosque UWU"
"don't...judge okay?"
"Ad Astra abyssosque Order......?"
"SO THAT ZHONGLI CAN HAVE ME."

GENSHIN BOYS IN A BAND WITH SINGER S/O
• genshin boys as band members.
fluff! band au! — childe! diluc! kaeya! tohma! xiao!
notes: no notes but please don’t spam like my post! if can get me shadowbanned. it would be a huge help if you can reblog.
# childe … drum player or electric guitar. His hair is a little longer and he’s the type to stick his tongue out when he’s playing solo or really feeling the music. His style is more like baggy clothes and boyfriend jeans. He’s the layback band member.
Drum player childe, plays the best beats I’m telling you he’s naturally talented with it comes to drumming. Especially if it’s for you, when you are asked to improvise he goes all out giving you one of his best beats so you can give the crowd your best.
Guitar player childe, when he’s playing a solo he can’t help but lean his back against you. My gosh, I can just picture him. Crowd goes crazy for him, he’s the type to wear a tank top with some loose jeans, a couple of necklaces, and maybe even a pearl one. ( i have a thing for guys who wear pearl necklaces </3 ) you sing to him while he plays for you and everyone goes crazy.
-
# xiao … he’s an electric guitar player no one can’t say no. electric guitar player xiao who wears leather jackets even if he’s drooling in sweat. Wears skinny jeans and combat boots, rings, and has multiple piercings, you choose where. His poker face makes everyone go feral.
He smiles every time you start singing or when you sing once he finishes his part. Man, he loves your voice so much. He can even hear it in his dreams.
He sings with you, the two of you take the same mic and sing away, people love it.
Second lead singer xiao, who takes the lead right after you sing a high note. Holds the guitar with one hand and sings.
-
# kaeya … keyboard player. He’s the band’s flirtatious member. It’s hard not to get jealous while singing, he literally steals the show and gets thrown bras…
Keyboard player kaeya, who wears half unbuttoned shirts, always the white ones. With baggy jeans and boots. Has his famous earrings and has cool-looking glasses.
Keyboard player kaeya, that winks at you when he takes the lead and dedicates his solo to you, always.
Keyboard player kaeya, who has a thing for licking his lips.
-
# diluc … drum player only and only that. He’s the fit one, not too fit but has the muscles and the body. That’s what he’s known for. He’s the one also wearing tanks tops, a black one to be exact. If it’s not that then he’s wearing oversize shirts and baggy pants has long hair and it’s always on a messy low pony tail. His hair is not as long as he has it in the game.
He always has a serious face but man does he smirk, those little smirks always appear when he’s not even noticing. People go crazy.
Okay but he’s so hot when he plays the drums, you can’t even look behind you without getting shy.
Drum player diluc, who smiles at you when he’s doing his solo while you sing. He’s the type to place his tongue on his teeth while playing just because he gets too concentrated.
Drum player diluc, who throws his stick up in the air and catches them before playing.
-
# tohma … second lead singer, who wears anything he feels comfortable in. the fashionable one of the band. And oh man can this man sing. Just imagine tohma in a fashionable outfit and having sexy voice cracks when he sings, not the embarrassing ones tho.
Second lead singer tohma, who has a whiny voice when he sings. King at showing expression while he sings. It’s impossible not to fall for him.
Second lead singer tohma, who sings next to you with the flirtatious smile ever, making you nervous. Eye contact is intense.

❝ WHAT YOUR FAVORITE GENSHIN BOY SAYS ABOUT YOU ❞
CHARACTERS | venti, xiao, zhongli, childe, kaeya, diluc, albedo, scaramouche
A/N | I WAS STALKING MY OLD PAGE EARLIER HAHA and i saw a lot of positive feedback with the mha version of this so once again im stealing ideas (albeit from myself but still). this is part one since i wanna do the rest of the boys & also my girlies
VENTI
i’m not even into astrology but you’re 100% an air sign, or at least, you’re very free and act a little childish or naively. while some people think you’re a bit much to handle, you have a heart of gold and strive to do the best thing, whether it be for others or yourself. you can’t stick to schedules or due dates for the life of you and your laziness will be the end of you. you find it easy to charm or persuade others into doing what you want, though it’s usually for something petty. it’s hard for you to understand the emotions of others and often try and comfort people with laughter. in essence, you’re a lot like the tone-deaf bard himself! do you have a talent for the arts or music?
XIAO
you’re a simp. the biggest kind possible. you considered making a shrine to pull xiao (if you didn’t already.) you’re either very much like xiao, in the sense that you’re cold and curt, or the complete opposite— an emotional, empathetic mess. xiao is your comfort character, whether it be that you relate to how he feels (grief, inability to socialize, personality) or you find your heart aching to hold and comfort him. do you take a while to respond to texts? you’ve wanted to get a bunch of piercings and tattoos. if you’ve dyed your hair, it probably looked incredible.
ZHONGLI
you’re classy, book smart, and have a thing for older men. you don’t like straying far from comfort zones or familiarity but if the chance comes to prove yourself, you try your best. a small part of you thinks you’re better than everyone (you’re probably correct LOL). you have an eye for graphic design or fashion. you’re gullible though, often finding yourself not aware of slang. is it hard to talk comfortably to others? you’re probably a little close minded. are you an intp/infp? an introvert? dislike loud crowds?
CHILDE
bastard, that’s what you are. attitude problem. you’re loud, blunt, outgoing, and people find it easy to dislike you. you’re aggressive or easy to provoke, and welcome fights or confrontation. i want to sock you in the face so bad. your ego is huge in someway or another and confidence oozes from you, albeit most of is fake. despite all this, you’re friendly and when you aren’t in a lousy mood, you’re very pleasant to talk to and polite. whatever you’re trying to subtly do, i’m here to tell you that you aren’t subtle at all. why do you have so many five stars. you’re rich, one way or another.
KAEYA
you’re so attractive. you probably smell so good and are for sure very flirty or find it easy to converse with people. you’re very into alcohol or find the effect of it very fun. you’re bold, borderline trend setter. if you’re into nightclubs, you’re the center. no seriously, how do you smell so good😭 you’d rather die than be caught slacking on looks. you spend so much money on yourself (as you should.) do you gossip a lot? or are quick to dislike people? despite the seemingly bimbo facade, you’re smart and tactical when you need to be. do you like it when things are in your control? or rather, do you snap when things aren’t in your full control?
DILUC
childe fan 2.0. you think you’re so much better than everyone, the arrogance hurts. a dry texter and a pain to talk to over message. despite this, you have a good heart and intentions. if someone were to tell you their issues, you’d look for the quickest way to solve the problem instead of comforting them. you’re a good cook, huh? you’re probably super good in the kitchen. you’re a competitor with xiao fans for being the biggest simp. i feel like you have a thing for gloves but most of it is just a thing for men who don’t treat you right. you either want diluc to pin you to a wall or you want to coddle the poor boy.
ALBEDO
you’re an artist or find interest in the arts. you find yourself liking niche things and it’s unique, super cute! you’re super into pretty pretty boys, and would die for any man who regularly dresses in beige and/or vests. you’re so aesthetic, or very well kept. your room’s air is fresh, i just know it. how much are you into plants? you probably prefer a pure white color scheme or minimalism over darker, more cluttered ones.
SCARAMOUCHE
you were super edgy in middle school and high school. you’re extremely reserved, probably very lonely; you’re independent and follow the rules to a T. you. are. so deep into anime and anything related to it. you play some of the most unheard of games and have too much merch. please stop spending so much money on anime boys. it’s for your own good. WHY DO YOU LIKE MEN WHO ARE MEAN TO YOU😭 you’re a cat person.
