Burying your head in the crook of their neck and breathing deep, fingers tangled in their clothes or woven into their hair... feeling arms wrap around you, their breath a gentle breeze as they pull you close, murmuring words for you alone to hear.
WAH blissvie in my inbox!!!! wtvr u wld like my friend !!! ill try my best to answer all of them !!!! (。•̀ᴗ-)✧
questions frm this ask game !
✍️: Overall, how does the fandom trait you? Are you a beloved character, or hated? Are you popular, or a minor side character? Anything in between?
— maybe a minor side chara w handful of fans ? this feels rly silly to say HWHAAHA but yea smth like that!!!!! def not popular!!!
📝: How would your story in canon go? How would you influence the events of the original story?
— well !!! a major part of kyras character is that shes rly just a normal person !!! so she doesnt rly have much influence on the original story (≧▽≦) !!! for her own story,,, a big part of it takes place before the traveler meets her in liyue!!! where she is trying to settle down :o !!! before that, she grew up in fontaine before applying to the adventurers guild and going on a lil journey arnd the world!! (。•̀ᴗ-)✧ <- my excuse to get her to meet as many mutuals s/is + ocs as possible!!!!
🤪: What is your trait that fanon would exaggerate?
— maybe being sleepy!!! (≧▽≦) ? sleeping anywhere and everywhere ?
🥰: How would someone who loved you portray you?
— wah i struggled a lot w this question,,,,,, but,,,, if i might be so bold so say!!!! i rmbred there r alrdy portrayals of kyra by ppl who lov her!!! all u friends here!!! i cant bring myself to list any traits but i want to take the chance to say ty!!!!! ʕ´• ᴥ•̥`ʔ <33333333 !!!
😡: How would someone who hated you portray you?
— v weak and needing to be saved constantly ? HWHAHA hmhm;;;; and incompetent!!!! oh and !!! jealous + trying to sabotage other xiao ships i bet!!!! or a flat character whos only depth is loving xiao!!!!
👯: What canon character are you most similar to?
— tbh idk!!! hmhm;;; there r some similarities btwn her and layla!!!! but personality wise;;; idk (≧▽≦) ;;; SRY!!!!
🌦️: Would you be accompanied by mostly fluff or angst fanfics? Both? Explain why.
— probably both!!!! i think she can be easily inserted into fluffy fics for sure!!! bcus of her nature but!! angst,,, well there r a few things u cld tap into!!! ofc her unrequited love but also!!!!!!! some other things i havent talked abt!!! (eg her abandoned dream career!!!) thats just on kyras side!!!
🏷️: What is you and your f/o’s ship name?
— hmhm idk;;; maybe still kyxiao ? :D ? it still sounds better w that name ordering!!! or idk maybe others cld come up w a more creative name!!!
❤️: How popular is you x your f/o? Are you a rarepair?
— maybe a bit more of a rare ship !!! there r a lot of xiao ships w strong fanbases hehe (ㆁωㆁ) !!! and also!!! i think kyras one-sided feelings wld have to be implied (≧▽≦) and then they r made even more obscure by her not being v story relevant!!!
💞: Aside from with your f/o, who else would you commonly be shipped with? Why?
— wah,,,,,, can i say friends s/is!!!!!! (*´ω`*) <3333333333333 her close friendships!!!! why ? well u r all amazing thats reason enough !!!! <333333333 those wld be her main canon dynamics too !!!!
☕️: What are the most common plots of shipping fics between you and your f/o?
— wah,,, hmhm;;; well!!!!! sleeping related fics im sure!!! or just normal everyday things!!! (≧▽≦) sounds typical for both her and xiao !!! or maybe kyra taking xiao places!!! + also angstier things that xiao brings;;; like say he returns her feelings in a fic!!! but they still dont end up tgt bcus of his concerns!!! etc etc
🛌: What tropes show up in fics involving your ship?
— wah this is a bit similar to the prev question,,,,,,,, ill say my prev answer applies here too!!! but also!!! hmhm what is it called;;; requited unrequited love ??? + saying his name in her sleep ?
🪐: What would be your most popular AU and why?
— wah;;;;;;;; modern au maybe ? the nature of it places them more on equal footing!!!!! so it might be easier to pair them up ? HWAHAHA thats the reason for my own modern au at least!!!
💘: Why would people love your ship? Why would people dislike your ship? How might it start debates?
— ;;;;;;;; idk why they wld love it!!! friends here say its a comfort ship tho ʕ´• ᴥ•̥`ʔ !!! i think they cld def dislike it bcus they like other xiao ships better tho!!!! or there is just little canonical support for it!!! or they just dont like kyra (≧▽≦) !!!! kyxiao shippers wld have to search for crumbs im afraid!!!
🙈: Why would your ship be thought of as cute/fluffy? Why would your ship be considered problematic?
— yea i wld say so!!!! aside from any angst bcus of the unrequited love + xiaos karmic debt + etc!!! ;;;;; i dont think it wld be problematic!!!!!
🎞️: What ‘canon’ scenes would the fandom point to as evidence for the validity of your ship?
— i think!!!! if there r any cutscenes w them tgt!!! kyra might seem a tiny bit flustered!!! and ofc their voicelines for each other!!! and;;;; kyra sometimes appears at wangshu inn!!!! does that count!!! like for anecdotes + things like that :D !!!
💌: How would your dynamic be portrayed? What might people focus on most? Any misconceptions?
— aaaaaa;; they r kind of friends in canon !!! <333333 kyra does travel arnd sometimes so when she does !!! she will see if she can stop by the inn and see him!! and sometimes she will send him letters!!! so basically like the persimmon chibis comm :Dc !!! xiao finds her to be an ok companion!!!!! + finds her solo travels a bit worrying,,,, bcus he can tell that shes weak!!!
👀: How does your ship with your f/o influence both of your characterisations and the world? Would there be any interesting metas written about your dynamic?
— hmhm idk abt characterisations;;; but!!! i do think their dynamic is a tiny bit unique in that way that!!! they meet by chance and dont rly have!!! any other meaningful connections!!! kyra isnt involved in any major events so they havent fought tgt + she isnt a big name hes heard of!!! :o
