you just know c!dream bites, right? like if he's backed into a corner and has nothing else, he's biting and scratching. c!techno jokingly put his his hand over dream's mouth and dream just instinctively bites him.
I need tattooed Batfam + jim cuz bro dont get enough attention, heres some head cannons about that:
Duke gets a tatttoo to honer his friends from the "we are robin!" Movement, and didnt realise that the tattoo itself would automadically glow in the dark because of his powers, its only slight and he can dim it to a point that if you arent paying attention then you wont realise its glowing, but if you pay attention it is almost always glowing slightly.
Richard started a tradition of the robins getting a actual robin beating up a bat, so far, every robin has at some point gotten or atempted to get this same tattoo with slight changes, all excepted Damian, as he isnt old enough and he still following the muslim practice of no tattoos [this is subject to change as he gets older].
Tim has surprisingly the most tattoos but jason has the most skin covered by tattoos out of the bat kids.
Most of Tims are stick poke ones he did as a kid, mostly batman and the flying graysons based, he got many infections from them, early on, but he pretty quickly figured out how to keep them clean.
Jasons most regreted tattoo is a crowbar, on he back of his forearm, it was supposed to be edgy and make bruce feel guilty.. To be honest he was drunk one night in crime alley, and well he gets a discount from the tattoo artist down there.
Cass has two tattoos, one is of a little bat eating toast, the other, two ballet shoes shaded black.
Bruce has a ton of tattoos, the most out of the whole family, in coverable areas of course, and he would rouse on them for every tattoo, not overly but just enough ak they know he didnt like it, the kids never knew about his own, until Clark mentioned the one of the tribute to his kids over his heart [one that if he was ever compromised wouldnt obvously lead back to them] it was a war zone of tears, annoyance and shock.
Steph got a riddler question mark tramp stamp tattoo cuz she thought it was funny, and ironic.
Barbra has a leg sleeve on one of her legs that she usually hides under tights as a civilian.. her father was surpisingly chill about it muttering something about "your batgirl, you survived the joker, and your crazy brother.. this is the most normal thing you've done."
Jim worked as a tattoo artist to out himself through police acadamy, he actually still has a tattoo gun.. somewhere.
Alfred has a tattoo to for martha and thomas that he got a few weeks after their deaths, though he will/would never have let bruce find out about it. He also has a old tattoo from his days in the army, though he will not let the batkids get a look at it "you know its there, thats all you need to know."
When he's in a good or neutral mood, he's a functional human person and a contributing member of society, the prodigy of the family as everyone on Earth knows that he is.
But when he's upset? Suddenly he's climbing on the nearest person and demanding to be carried and hugged.
No brain, head empty. He just wants to be a baby.
.
.
It started that one time when he climbed on Stephanie's lap after a hard patrol. Bruce and Jason were fighting over something or another. Damian was tired and overstimulated and really not in the mood...
...then he spots Steph and his mind goes
"Steph is nice, Steph will not let anyone bother me while I'm upset, yes yes she will protect me"
And then suddenly Steph has a lapful of a pouty little Robin who is done for the day and wants his safe person now.
The cave fell quiet. The moment felt too sacred, more important than whatever fluke had happened during patrol.
.
.
The next time it happened was when Damian came home to a particularly rough day at school. His classes sucked, the sun was being a bitch, and worst of all, he forgot to bring his packed lunch and ate the sad white people food in the cafeteria.
So when he got home, he made a beeline for Bruce, who was working on something or another in his office.
Damian stood there until Bruce acknowledges him.
"Damian? Can I help you, love?"
"I want to explode."
Bruce blinked, "O-Oh."
"I should shower, or eat, or go over my learning material so I don't go to Math class with knowledge on History instead."
"Yes, you should."
Damian looked at him expectantly with big sad eyes. It clicked to Bruce why Damian had come to him - he's his dad, he has to fix things for him.
And who was Bruce to reject his little boy?
Carefully, he picked his Damian up and began a strategic trip around the house to fix his son a bath, a meal, and a nap. He did this with one free hand, and one other holding his son close.
(He'd later tell Talia about it, while sending photos of Damian who had elected to not let Bruce go when he was finally at the nap portion of his route. She had laughed and said "It seems he's getting comfortable.")
.
.
Since then, everyone had gotten used to Damian going koala mode.
Rough day at training? Suddenly Jason is a tree and Damian is a very clingy bear.
Watched a sad movie? Shut up, Tim. You're a pillow now. Pillows don't have mouths.
Fucked up social interaction today? Damian is jumping Dick the moment he finds him.
Chronic pain from the Horrors™? Where is Duke. Where is my big brother/heating pad. If I don't find him in the next 5 minutes, I will scream.
They let him. That's their trusting little brother.
Anyone who tries to get Damian out of koala mode forcefully will have a deadly weapon pointed at a sensitive organ.
About your language brainrot. I see your "Reader's writing can't match tyvat's long and flowery writing" and bring you "Tyvat isn't used to books over 50 pages long so a short story to the Reader is a whole dictionary to tyvat readers".
Seriously, have you seen how thin the books are? They don't wrote novels, they write short chapters formatted in the way really old stories are. As in, summarizing all the events down into one smooth story then adding a few quotes. Fanfiction writers are insane. They will willingly sit down and write hundreds of words at a time. To them, a proper modern day story of maybe, oh 10k words or so, would probably be like the Oddessy itself.
If we were to combine the two headcanons. It would end up as many historians being intimidated by this insanely long written scripture in the language of the forgotten.
I'm going to take this a step further and say that if the creator asked some people to proofread their things, it would establish a hiarchy of who is able to actually finish the book the creator read and who isn't.
NOW THIS, THIS IS MY FUCKING JAMMMM
I'm so sorry this is so old!! u probably all know this by this point that I've really slowed down as the year has gone on, but I graduated university and then got my first job so its been pretty crazy!
Sun: Reader (you/they/them)
Orbit: Headcanons-ish
Stars: dash of all the book/nerds of Genshin, heavy on Sumeru?
Comets & Meteors: Content Warnings: Cussing, 16+ Mature Audiences, Spoliers for Sumeru Archon Quests/Scaramouche, & Trigger Warnings: mention of shipping/characters shipping themselves with you.
Comment if any missed, please.

FULL STOP.
THE AKADEMIYA, FONTAINE RESEARCH INSTITUTE, HAVE BEEN WAITTTINNGGGG ON YOUR ASS LMAO
You fall from the fucking sky like a 5 star, or pop out of the Irminsul or whatever
and immediately are mobbed by scholars. LMAO jkjk (not really, bc that's what it’d feel like)
can you even imagine the dread older stories(”the classics” to them), that was instilled in the poor students around Teyvat??
id like to think ur works are the most preserved over the thousands of years of Teyvat archeologists excavating them, in comparison to other authors (teyvat just likes you more, suck it William Shakespeare)
also, bc I cant resist language differences/world building I'm sorryyyy 😭 😭
the vocab of Genshin lang vs. ours, has significantly less vocabulary like their actual dictionary is 1/3 the size of ours type of energy
(Omfg all ur fanfics being considered like insanely long realistic romantic classics or tragedies like Jane Austen-level, and only the richest and biggest play companies put on plays about ur stories bc the script goes on for hours)
(ur plays only get put on for rlly big events bc of this, like Lantern Rite or like a Summer/Winter festival/your birthday, which is, yes, an international holiday)
dude the sheer power move of anything you’ve written being essentially “Journey of the West” to them, like Damnnn.
endless like adaptations, plays, Teyvat-short stories condensing it, (THEIR OWN FANFICTION ABOUT UR STORIES)
the power is, in fact, going to your head every time another scholar both deflates at how long ur stuff is, but also lights up bc they get to read it
speaking of scholars… you know who snatched you up first. you know. you don’t even need to read the next line.
Alhaitham.
sneaky bastard he is, absolutely manipulated, mansplained (and manwhored bc he knows he’s handsome, cheeky little shit) his way into getting you to sit down with him and interview you about both translating other classics, your own, giving your own analysis of others works and ur own, and picking ur brain apart of how/why you wrote urs, etc. its fucking endless,
Kaveh had to come rescue you bc u were starving to death after getting stuck with the Haravatat scholar in his office for nearly 7 hours of interrogation discussion about literature
and Alhaitham wasn't even nearly done, he’d informed you as you left that he already had another appointment for later conversation scheduled (how?? you don't even know ur own schedule??? you have a schedule???) and was looking forward to more of your “creative and enlightening input” :)))
(you’re never going to escape him, not even Nahida herself can save you from his stubborn ass)
On another note, Xingqiu is quaking when you agree to autograph his copy of your stories (of which he has all hard covers of the first edition translations)
Zhongli/Rex Lapis is known for having a near-lifelong passion for searching for your works specifically, and learning how to translate them better into Teyvatian vernacular
like the same way he can absolutely speak on Rex Lapis facts/rocks/adepti info, is the same confidence he speaks about knowing ur work lol
(yes he did also ask for several autographs and another sit-down talk about the works, tho a lot more sneaky then Alhaitham bc he just casually gets u guys into it during dinner)
Barbatos/Venti has written some of the most famous songs based on your stuff, he has his favorites too,
but he always claims the best songs are any that have been written in the story, like either when a character sings something, or there are like quotes from songs ur fanfics are based on lol
(he also demanded to hear what they actually sound like from you, yes, you have to sing them for him lol)
Venti also can surprisingly drunkenly ramble the entirety of at least one of ur stories, like, word for word lmao
(Diluc gave in and did give him a drink on the house for that one, just once, Venti doesn’t remember it lol)
(I forgot to mention, u guys still speak the same language, just like, different versions of it)
ur works being one of the few things all the Archons can freely talk about with each other, like it’s neutral ground bc they’re all fangirling about it lmao
Furina and Neuvillette have had like,, fierce debates over the decades about character dynamics and the general drama of ur stories, they’ve gotten into it enough they’ve stopped talking to each other for a couple days a few times lol
Albedo, Sucrose, Kokomi, Yae Miko, Ei, Raiden, have read every single work they’re gotten their hands on in Teyvat (it took them like a literal year or longer)
Albedo drew you fanart for every single story, bc he’s hyperfixated on everything related to you ngl,
Kokomi had commissioned smaller pocket versions of ur works (which later got popular thanks to Yae Miko) both the OG and the Teyvat shortened versions
THE HARBINGERS ARE THE MOST DOWN BAD LMAO
Childe has literally tried to recreate battle scenes from ur works lmao
and gets especially riled up about fighting someone who resembles any characters from them (esp villains, what a cutie)
You cannot fathom the amount of research throughout Teyvat that has been secretly or indirectly funded by Pantalone/Tsaritsa
from the experts to analyze them, to funding play companies to act them out, to actually excavating places to get more of ur stuff unearthed
(the Harbingers absolutely are the first group of people that got to read several of ur stories first bc of this, like the world’s most exclusive secret book club lol)
Scaramouche used to clown on Childe all the time about how he was too impatient to even “sit down and read the King’s classics”, and he was downright insufferable when he found out about Tartaglia’s habit of recreating battle scenes/that being what motivated him to fight sometimes lol
that being said, Wanderer surprisingly never forgot ur stories.
Even when his memories were wiped for a bit, he found comfort in these fantastical epics still sticking around, even when his old names did not
(he mayyyy or mayyy nottt have secretly namedhimselfafteroneofthetragicprotagonistsherelatesto- )
oh btw, Nahida also found joy and comfort in ur stories when she was trapped, they also helped her literally grow as a person bc she had ur stories to help her sort of process the world/what life was like outside of her dreaming prison 🥺💔❤️🩹
◇
OMFG
ANYWAY FULL TONE SHIFT LMFAO-
the ABSOLUTE SPIRAL-RED-STRING-CONSPIRACY-THEORY-BOARD ENERGY IF THIS WAS A BLUNT LANGUAGE AU LMAOOOO
like specifically how Teyvatians like to give all the context ever thru their words, but older deities/beings like you just do simple phrases that can have deeper meanings (whereas teyvat just explains all the meanings behind their words)
STOP there’s like an official display at the Akademiya and Fontaine Institute of red string theory boards 😭😭 (look what you’ve done to themmm LMAO)
for like every story of urs, INCLUDING THE FANFICS STOP
IMAGINE THE SHIPPING WARS IF U EVER WROTE ONE THAT WASNT EXPLICIT OR LIKE ONE OF THE MAIN ROMANTIC INTERESTS HAD CHEMISTRY WITH OTHER CHARACTERS HAHAHAHAA
that's actually what Akademiya scholars argue about the most viciously, it’s like politics you can’t just bring up ships from ur stories casually in regular convos 💀
(poor Cyno has to deal with a shipping war once a year bc someone always makes the mistake of reading ur work for the first time (without being told to not talk to others abt ships lol) and it starts an all out brawl in the cafeteria every time LMAO)
Also yes.
Cyno is a fanboy.
(he has read Creator x Reader-insert fanfiction.)
(As have most of the characters mentioned, and those not lol)
…
(I'm gonna make a whole Creator x reader fanfic post one day i stg lmao)
