Hi! Are requests open? Your pinned post says that they’re closed, so maybe you’re catching up on requests? If they’re still closed, no worries! Have a nice day/night!

Hi! Thanks for mentioning it, since some people tend to be a bit confused. I’m still catching up from the last time I took some requests!

Guess I didn’t make it obvious enough, so I’ll close asks for a few days, before I can prepare a more decent-looking mastepost to pin up there 😅

I actually have like 3 more to go, so soon enough I can open up for the new ones :3

[justgenshinstuf]

Hi! If you're still free for requests, I'd love a continuation of the exploring dragonspine hcs, for (uhhh everyone but let's say) Mona, Diona, Lisa and our new boy Xiao - Anon from the last ask 💛

Yay! Thank you for your request and here you go <3

(for other parts check the “exploring dragonspine” tag)

Exploring Dragonspine pt.3

Mona

She hates every second of it.

In no way is she adapted to such cold. Her outfit obviously is not acceptable for this kind of weather, so she has to wear an ugly big coat provided to her by the Adventurer’s Guild.

She also lacks nutrition, considering her limited diet. Some basic food is obviously provided by the guild too, but eating some dried meat and goulash after weeks and weeks of salads is a deadly strike for your stomach.

And when you are hungry even a simple gust of wind can chill you to the bone, and long mountain camping becomes unbearable on a physical level.

The result is she usually whines and complains a lot. Probably even too much, considering all the problems can and should be solved, but experience is just overall unpleasant. She never gives up though or even falls behind. It’s like she can get fuelled by the irritation alone.

What’s worse, she can in no way carry out her astrological readings. It’s usually too cloudy to see the sky during the night and that’s when you don’t stay in some cave. And in the blizzard it’s often impossible to make out the person standing next to you let alone the stars.

On the sunny days when all is seemingly fine the problem is finding water that hasn’t turned into muddy blocks of ice. But if Mona gets lucky to find a running mountain river or even a small melted puddle it’s truly worth it. She says herself that the pure waters of melted snow are optimal for hydromancy, that’s how it’s done the old-school style.

She finds her new motivation in desire to reach the mountain top. To be able to carry out a long deep reading being so much closer to the stars. For her this experience is worth the suffering.

Diona

Being the one to usually complain about anything and everything Diona surprisingly loves the snow.

It’s usually hard to get her so openly excited about something, but snow crunching under the boots and puffy snowflakes slowly falling from the sky do the trick. It’s like she finally lets herself act like a kid.

She is not afraid of the wilderness of these places at all, her cat instincts fully sharpened, little cat-ears twitching at every suspicious sound. Her survival skills are something to learn from truly.

Snow storms ruin the experience though. Diona is not comfortable hiding in some stupid cold cave for long, so if the blizzard calms down by the nighttime she will insist on moving out and continuing the expedition.

Thankfully she can be a decent guide, using her night-vision. “Haha, primitive ones, you can’t even see in the dark!”

As you can guess, this plan doesn’t work for everyone. And if you don’t want to wander around in complete darkness led astray by the wind and snow, paralysed by sheer cold eating you up from the toes, relying solely on a fussy tiny cat-girl, for SOME strange reason that is TOTALLY NOT obvious, there is a way around it.

It’s possible to calm Diona’s temper a bit by simply making her stay by the fireplace for some time. Add some warm drinks or even milk and some casual hugs and Diona will calmly dose off for a few hours.

How to wake her up to go into the windy nightmare of a trip again? Well, you will have to find that out for yourself. A little tip - Diona actually likes to be carried around (but don’t we all?).

At times, when she gets too tired of trying to keep up with the rest, mind you, much taller teammates, she can simply jump up on your back, no questions asked. So be ready to look out for the claws.

Cats will always be cats.

Lisa

Lisa is probably the least outdoorsy person you can imagine. The fact she agrees to go out of her cosy library is a miracle on itself, but Dragonspine? No one will believe you if you tell this.

The truth is, she has a certain private interest in that place, that she wouldn’t reveal this easily. Maybe it’s something about the ruins of an ancient city buried under the snow and the relics it’s inhabitants left behind? Or maybe it has something to do with Durin’s remains and Albedo’s research? As Lisa likes to say herself: “Every woman has a secret”.

An unaware bystander may get a heart-attack seeing Lisa rock her usual outfit in this weather, walking around effortlessly in high-heals like she’s flowing above the snow. The trick is actually pretty simple, she wears a tiny warming Seelie captured in a little bottle as a necklace.

Being both the laziest and the smartest person in Mondstadt, she finds all kinds of clever ways to ‘cheat the system’. For her, creating some obscure method of battling cold on the go is always a better option than prolonging the trip even for a minute.

Warming potions, gliding potions, energy potions, fire potions, anything you can think of Lisa has a potion for. And even if she doesn’t, it takes her a few minutes max to come up with the solution. “The sooner we’re done, the sooner we come back. I’m not planning to miss my five o’clock tea.”

If you encounter a puzzle, Liza will solve it for you almost instantly. While you waste your time and warmth looking through old books in desperate need to translate some runes or pace around searching for some clues, all the doors open before Lisa and all the magic barriers fall.

It kind of steals the excitement of riddles, so if you like, she might let you solve it yourself from time to time, just don’t make her wait for too long.

She prefers to keep her usual laidback attitude, avoid unnecessary battles, act efficiently and not waste her energy on something not worth her attention. However her maximum productivity is reached when it’s time to return back home from the expedition.

Lisa can actually just use one of her magic tricks to teleport back to the library almost instantly, but it takes a bit too much energy even for such a skilled mage. Besides, she would never leave her sweet little apprentice all alone.

Xiao

One may say he looks too displeased and totally unhappy to be here but you are well familiar with Xiao to know that’s just his resting face.

He is not concerned by the weather conditions in the slightest, not the rain, not the wind, not the sheer cold. It may seem it gets to him at times. “It’s not. Only mortals can be affected by such minor inconveniences”.

He stays as distant as always, following you on the nearest mountain side or silently dashing through the tops of the trees. Sometimes you can’t even see him, but can always feel his presence.

Xiao patiently keeps the watch during nights, hiding somewhere in the darkness by himself. He never joins you or even enters your tent or a cave you chose to stay in unless you specifically ask him too.

Peeking at him from behind while Xiao sits silently by the fire you can sometimes catch a glimpse of him enjoying the warmth and sound of wood slightly cracking.

He never shows his emotions, nor would he admit to have any in the first place. But sometimes he goes deep into his thoughts, looking around the snowy peaks, listens closely to the wind.

Is it sorrow in his eyes? Or maybe longing? Nostalgia? Is he thinking about some long-lost friend? Just don’t let him catch you staring or he will surely disappear again, looking over you from somewhere you can’t see.

“I have no interest in this place. I’m only escorting you on your quest, so don’t even think about asking questions.”

If you try throw a snowball at him, it might end poorly for you. Better try to explain the concept to him first, that is if you care to have your arm intact. He will claim to have no time for such silly things and the usual bla bla serious adepti stupid mortals kind of deal. But if you still want to start a snowball fight be ready for a snowball war, or even a snowball death.

“You are too carefree. Unlike for me, this place can be very dangerous for you. You don’t want to know about all the dark entities hiding below the snow and ice of this place, it bares many secrets and many lost souls. That’s why I’m here. To protect you”.

[justgenshinstuf]

I love your team hcs, so could I get some for a team of the traveler, Xinyan, Amber, and Ganyu?

Here you go, Annony! Hope it will be a pleasant read and sorry for being so late 💕

Team Headcanons: Traveler, Xinyan, Amber and Ganyu

You were excited to have Amber join you on your missions in Liyue. She was an amazing friend and you spent many great days camping around Mondstadt sometime ago, before you had to part ways.

She was finally able to arrange a leave for a special mission. You met her right at the border between cities by the Stone Gate, and it was a really sweet long awaited reunion.

You introduced Amber to your Liyue gang - fiery musician Xinyan and hardworking secretary of Qixing Ganyu. They all got along pretty well.

Amber was naturally outgoing and made friends easily. It was even easier since she and Xinyan could share their experience in having a Pyro Vision which was pretty rare and often judged by it’s “destructive” nature.

Xinyan absolutely ADORED her Baron Bunny and even asked Amber to sew her one too. “Could you make it like double explosive? That would totally rock!”

Ganyu really appreciated Amber’s fiery enthusiasm and dedication to complete any task. She never knew much about Mondstadt’s Outriders, but Amber’s example made her believe it was a very respected guild. “Maybe we should think about organising something similar in Liyue. It may appeal to the youths not too interested in starting business... I’ll add it to my to-do list!”

Amber had assumed Ganyu could be a catalyst user or something, but how shocked she was to learn she was actually a talented archer! Amber knew from the start she could learn a lot by training with her. She even volunteered to help Ganyu with some errands to make free time for some training.

You were more than happy to see the three of them get along so well. Your daily missions became much more fun since Amber joined you, maybe she was that spark that had been lacking before? Her contagious energy kept you going even on the worst days, it was truly never a dull moment with her around.

And Amber herself loved every minute of the journey be it adventuring in the wild, helping Ganyu with some overtime work, or sneakily setting up a new stage for Xinyan’s rebel rock performance, followed by the rushed escape from the angered Millelith.

- Okay and when I start performing this sick new guitar riff you make it rain with fireworks like wooosh!!!

- Oh Seven, if I hear one more rumour about you two burning something again, I swear to give you out to Millielith myself!

- Sorry, Ganyu, gotta’ go prep for the show! It will be ~fireee!!

- Please, don’t.

You finally could spend all the time you wanted together. Amber prepared a whole list of amusing rumours from Mondstadt for you to laugh about, and you had many stories about your Liyue adventures to share.

“No way! A Geo Archon himself?!”, “A blood-thirsty Fatui boy? Nah, you are kidding! One of the Eleven too?! Ewww, nooo!”, “Pirates, and ghosts, and zombies? You know what, I won’t believe a single word you say before you show me. Let’s go tomorrow!”

One day Amber shared a really personal story of her’s, which turned out to be quite a surprise. You never would’ve guessed she was Quarter-Liyuan, and her motivation to help you out with adventures in Liyue became even more justified.

“...So my Grandpa disappeared a few years ago. You probably herd some rumours back in Mond, about the fallout of Outriders and everything.” It was unusual to see Amber suddenly so serious and even sad. She fiddled her fingers frowning, gaze staying low at the ground level. “I thought maybe I could find some info about him here, maybe he decided to return to his homeland for some reason. He rarely said something about his origins, so I wouldn’t know where to look.”

With a sudden urge to cheer your friend up you took her hands in yours. When things came to family you knew better than anyone how hard it must feel.

“Don’t worry, I’ll help you out. We can start the investigation this moment! I’m sure Ganyu will find a way to help us out too. You shouldn’t hesitate to share something like that with me.”

Her face finally lightened up with a soft smile and her grip on your hand tightened.

“Thank you, y/n! You really are my bestest friend!”

WELCOME BACKKK U DON'T WANNA KNOW HOW HAPPY I AM BC I CHECK UR PAGE AT LEAST A TIME A WEEK 😩💖

AAOAOOAAOAOAOAO!!!! THANK YOU 😭😭😭💕💕💕

I’m sooo sorry for taking such long breaks every now and then, studying for master’s is a pain. But I hope you can still enjoy my posts ahah 😅 I’ll try to finish as many requests as I can and keep the art acc going too (planning as if I have 10 arms and 2 heads).

Also I have several really kind messages sent my way, and I’m sorry if I haven’t answered your messages or questions unrelated to requests. I read all of them and truly appreciate it, I’m just out of social resources sometimes to answer to you properly, my bad 😔❤️

As for the plans, I hope to finish a few more requests before work starts on Monday and maybe put together a master post for easier navigation. (And try to roll Hu Tao damnit)

[justgenshinstuf]

Your requests are open!?

Could I see team dynamics with Albedo, Bennett, Chongyun, and Xingqiu please?

Thank you! I really love all your posts!!

Thank you for the kind words, and I’m sorry for taking so long 😭

Hope you will still enjoy the post I prepared!

Team Headcanons: Albedo, Bennet, Chongyun and Xingqiu

Let’s say Albedo is not the best baby(teenage)sitter. He is great with Klee of course, but that’s a whole different story.

Being a not too good in establishing bonds of a person he mostly sticks to the idea of if they are not killing anyone, each other or themselves, they’ll be fine. So there was not much of supervision going on.

Also the fact he wasn’t that much older than the rest of them played it’s part. “I am not the leader by nature, y/n. But if it truly matters to you, I, of course, will keep an eye on them.”

Obviously the boys were more then happy with the outcome. Each of them felt old and capable enough to fend for himself. And that was partially true, since all three had some prior experience in exciting independently and solving their own problems.

Although all of them together could become quite a catastrophe. Naturally Xingqiu became the unspoken leader of the youth, coming up with all kinds of quests for their team and, of course, some mischief.

Him and Chongyun knew each other long enough to be considered best friends, so Bennet came around as kind of a third wheel. He didn’t mind, the guy was happy to have any kind of friends, even if they couldn’t consider him their number one.

He was even a bit pushy and intrusive at first giving the lack of proper communication skills. Bennet was always an outsider at home, avoided by most people because of his ‘condition’. He wasn’t sure if he had to mention it, but decided it might have been dishonest or even dangerous not to.

Visibly nervous he just spat it all out - about the misfortune thing, adopted family, people being scared of him. “Even Albedo doesn’t know what’s up, and he is the smartest guy I know!”

The boys were visibly lost for a second, trying to process the whole story that had been dumped on them, before Xingqiu laughed breaking the awkwardness. “So you are like Chongyun here, huh?”

That was when Bennet learned about the whole deal with “congenital positivity”. He never even knew there could be something similar to his problem, so he took the news with all seriousness. He took all the possible precautions not to accidentally trigger Chongyun’s positivity with his Pyro Vision or sudden bursts of unfortunate events.

Bennet was more of a mom-friend than anyone, bringing spare water bottles for Chongyun and making sure he stayed out of burning midday sun, cooking meals for the whole team and carrying everything needed for the first aid. He was trying his best to overcompensate all the random mishaps following him.

His misfortune really was acting up on certain days. Xingqiu had to put his flames out by slapping him with an emergency water splash every so often. Not only to prevent Chongyun unintentionally overheating, but also not to let Bennet burn himself and everything around him to ashes.

Although Albedo and Xingqiu were previously pen pals (or more like pen acquaintances), working on a book together not so long ago, he rarely joined their shenanigans outside of completing daily commissions from the Traveler.

Albedo spent his “free time” going somewhere to carry out some experiments or simply draw in peace, not too far from their camp in case something really serious happened. He usually came back with some impressive landscape paintings or sketches of old ruins. They all came up with an idea to start doing little drawing sessions together.

It helped to calm down a bit and have a little rest from whatever was going on. It also unexpectedly eased Bennet’s misfortunate occurrences for a short while, even though he wasn’t so proud of the pictures that he managed to finish at that time.

[justgenshinstuf]

Ooo asks are open again? Could I try an adult gang- Diluc, Jean, Mona and Keqing? Or...3 wallets and a broke....

Hey, Anon, thank you for your request and of course you can!

Team Headcanons: Diluc, Jean, Mona and Keqing

You asked the most capable of your friends to help you out with some missions. The choice naturally fell on ones of the most capable warriors from Mondstadt, Jean and Diluc, one of the Liyue Qixing flawless Keqing and your newly found astrologist friend Mona Megistus.

You were a bit unsure about asking Mona to join you. Of course she was a very strong hydro mage and her hydromancy abilities were truly outstanding, but she had some hard time trying to accommodate in her new place, working hard on her astrology column in the local paper and helping around city folks here and there to earn some mora.

On the other hand, those commissions you needed help with promised to be quite well-paid, and the other members of the team could cover all the travel expenses no problem.

Mona, of course, agreed to help you out. Although her prideful nature would never allow her to let her teammates pay for her own needs. Unfortunately the difference in finances was quite noticeable right from the start.

Jean was already familiar with Mona. She helped her out on different occasions ever since she’d moved to Mondstadt. But the main problem on the way to let them bond better was mainly the power imbalance.

Jean was almost the most important person back in Mondstadt, descendant from a noble family and an honorary knight from the young age. In no way could she find a common ground with some poor travelling fortune teller. At leat that was what Mona expected.

In reality, no one from the team was even a bit condescending towards her. Jean was naturally easy-going, not expressing anything but kindness towards all the residents of Mondstadt no matter their origins. She may have been a little too serious at times, but that was only a result of her high rank job at the Knights of Favonious.

Diluc’s manners couldn’t possibly let him judge someone based purely on their wealth even if he wanted to. Of corse, he was pretty far from being friendly or outgoing, but he respected Mona’s abilities and made sure to include her in all of the planning and discussions before heading out on the job. It can probably be called a kind of professional relationship, so Mona truly appreciated it, even though she was still careful around Diluc, maybe a bit scared of him, not that she would admit it.

Him and Jean had a history together that they were not too eager to discuss. The good thing from it was the fact they understood each other with half a word and could cooperate in battle so well, like they read one another’s thoughts.

As for Keqing, she was quite impressed to learn Mondstadt had these kinds of skilled warriors. She was a bit distant at first, being used to rely solely on her own strength. But soon enough, her powerful team earned some respect from the headstrong Yuheng of the Liyue Qixing.

Jean and Keqing spent nights in planning and discussing some politics regarding their respective cities. Keqing was really surprised to learn that Jean was only an Acting Grand Master and not the actual head of the city. She never quite understood all the “city of freedom” fling going on in Mondstadt, so the system with no ruler and the church and the knights raised many questions from her.

Diluc was a night owl himself, considering his vigilante habits, but he rarely joined the late discussions. Not the chitchat kind of person. He actually didn’t know what to do with himself, since all the Darknight Hero thing stayed back at home, as well as the management of the winery.

So he aimlessly walked around the camp being deep in his thoughts, or sharpened the swords, or scribbled little maps of the nearby locations, marking some strategic points. He wasn’t truly invested though, just looking for something to occupy his mind, battling the insomnia.

Mona caught a habit of doing her readings somewhere nearby. She was still a bit nervous around Diluc, so would never strike a conversation first. And they both learned to appreciate each other’s silent company.

Diluc ever so often found himself hypnotised by the hydromantic plates spinning in the darkness of the knight, looking at Mona performing her mysterious tricks while she turned her back.

“You never tell us what you see in there.” His deep voice startled her, breaking the silence.

“Our fates are already tangled up, you see, and astrologists can not foretell their own fate. It is believed such selfish actions can turn fate in on itself.” She took a long pause before a glimpse of a smile crossed her lips. “And you surely don’t want me to read your past, do you?”

Diluc only chuckled quietly before they continued to enjoy their silent solitude together.

Corrupted Gods

Okay, so the main idea here is that Archons without their Gnosis are easily subjected to corruption. So Zhongli was affected by Abyss Order, and corruption manifested his dragon form much like with Venti.

(I’m not set on the design for him yet, but the gigantic tail stays!)

[justgenshinstuf]

[justgenshinstuf]

Hello!!!💥

I have already sent this request but you said feel free to share again so here I am. It's a team headcanons of Lumine, Zhongli, Tartaglia and Diluc. Actually, it is my team and I have always been wondering how an outlander, a god, a fatui and an anti-fatui would interact with each other, especially the latter two.I am practically addicted to your team headcanons cuz they are so damn cute. ✨🤍🥺

Thank you 💖 & Love you💞

XOXO

First of all, I’m sorry for the rushed illustration here, but I really wanted to show the scene ahah

Thank you for the kind words, Anon, and I hope you like my headcanons for your team ;) ❤️

Team Headcanons: Lumine, Zhongli, Tartaglia and Diluc

Okay so there is obviously some tension going on. When you introduced Diluc to your team he wasn’t too happy to meet Tartaglia for obvious reasons.

He rarely directly shows his emotions, but some times you can almost feel the utter disgust he feels about working side by side with a Fatui.

You also came up with some rules, giving the fact you were supposed to work in a certain tense atmosphere. Childe was forbidden to use his Delusion, like, ever. The only exception can be a truly life threatening situation, life or death kind of predicament.

Tartaglia was totally fine with all the things you asked of him. He just laughed about it to you, but in reality he was quite frustrated with Diluc. The amount of attention you were giving him draw him crazy. And it’s not because you neglected Childe personally in some way, or spent THAT much time with your friend from Mondstadt, he was just plain jealous.

It wasn’t the first time Childe would act up, well, childishly. But this time it came to him giving long rants about Diluc to Zhongli, probably because this time he couldn’t release the stress by simply fighting and killing as he was used to.

Zhongli had always been chill, but this time you could really appreciate that. It was nice to spend time with him, since it was not about all the Drama(tm) going on. But sadly, you could barely leave the other two by themselves.

Diluc and Childe weren’t like openly at each other’s thoughts, but Diluc was constantly cautious and gruff around his Rival Teammate, and Childe wouldn’t miss a chance to poke the stick at him. It seemed like there was an imaginary timer ticking before the moment they bite into each other or something.

You couldn’t quite get Zhongli’s opinion on the matter, since he was mostly calm and not invested. It was hard to tell what he was thinking. It sometimes seemed like he was too deep into his own thoughts to care about all the power play going on around him. Other times he looked almost as if he wasn’t thinking about anything at all.

Your silent agreement was to give the guys some time-offs, with Zhongli handling Tartaglia’s temper tantrums and you making sure Diluc wasn’t planing on breaking Childe’s neck.

The thing was, Diluc respected you well enough not to try to do something sketchy. You earned his trust awhile ago, so he would gladly sacrifice his principles for your sake. At least until Tartaglia proves you wrong, then it would be all over for him.

As for Tartaglia himself, he was too prideful to break a promise he gave to you. He could complain and rage as much as he feels like it, but he would never do something to the person you considered your friend. Even if he is a “Redheaded dick” who “steals you” from him.

One day Zhongli caught you being a bit tired and frustrated, sitting all by yourself in silence. It wasn’t the first time you started to doubt it was all a good idea in the first place, but hearing Zhongli’s steps you decided to ask him for some guidance.

“Do you think I shouldn’t’ve brought them together? Like it might end poorly for all of us?” You sounded guilty, probably for dragging the oldest archon into all of this stupid Fatui controversy.

“Well, you said it yourself, Diluc is one of the strongest and capable warriors in Mondstadt, and your close friend at that. Why would it be bad to ask him to help us all out?”

You wondered if he even noticed what was going on in the team. Maybe you shouldn’t bother Zhongli with this stuff, he wasn’t that great in understating people’s relationships anyway.

“They will calm down soon enough, you know.” He sat right next to you, looking somewhere in the distance. “And if you think they might do something unrighteous, do you believe I will let that happen?”

He shifted his gaze at you, usual serious expression turning into a kind and mindful smile.

“Thank you, Zhongli.”

[justgenshinstuf]

Heya! Could I request a team hc for keqing, xingqiu, Bennett and albedo?

Here you go, Anon. Hope you enjoy the ideas I came up with!

Team Headcanons: Keqing, Xingqiu, Bennet and Albedo

“Traveler’s Adventure Team”, as Bennet liked to call it, was quite an interesting group. First of all, it perfectly represents the two regions of Teyvat: rich and successful high rank Liyue citizens and adventurous and determined travellers from Mondstadt.

Their respectful origins were quite noticeable, and the differences that came with it were a type of a barrier in teammates communication.

Bennet was not the brightest guy and, with his chaotic energy and pursuit for adventuring, caused quite a disturbance. Add a pinch of chronic misfortune and you have a perfect recipe for a disaster.

Albedo was in fact familiar with Bennet’s problem, and he even tried to study his condition. Unfortunately, all of the experiment logs caught on fire in a terrible accident. Other notes were then blown away by the wind and another journal tragically drowned.

The only conclusion Albedo was able to come up with is that it was currently impossible to finish the research without some kind of anti-misfortune precautions. “Subsequent experiments delayed s.d.”

Xingqiu was kind of amused by all the accidents surrounding Bennet. It was a bit like a never ending sitcom. The “never ending” part obviously made it pretty old pretty fast. Albedo was way more interesting for both Keqing and Xingqiu at first.

His outstanding intelligence, observance and ability to quickly analyse his surroundings earned him some respect from the newly found teammates. But the thing was, he was way more interested in theorising, studying alchemy and unusual occurrences than whatever dry and practical approach they were expecting from him.

Keqing sure wasn’t too happy to deal with a strange scientist guy, a ticking bomb and a chivalry-obsessed child of a wealthy Liyue family. Being a practical person and a bit of a control freak, she came up with a set of rules, a busy schedule and a whole plan of their upcoming activities.

In her idea, it was a way to discipline the team and try to shape them into a bit more acceptable adventurers. It helped in some way, but mostly it became a great catalyst to Xingqiu and Bennet’s friendship.

Xingqiu understandably became impatient with Keqing’s regime. At first, he wanted to use Bennet as a distraction to let him slip away to hang out with his friends at the harbour. As it usually happened, Bennet never ‘works’ according to plan.

They ended up running away together. And when Xingqiu noticed the excitement spark in Bennet’s eyes, he truly felt guilty for treating him poorly. The guy just genuinely wanted to make new friends and hang out, and talk, and have fun.

Bennet was in fact so grateful for their little sneak out that he took all the blame upon himself when they finally returned. So naturally, Xingqiu promised to help him out on the missions and take him to Liyue the next time too. That marked the start of a beautiful friendship and Xingqiu couldn’t help but wonder, was it the first time Bennet actually lucked out?

Keqing and Albedo managed to find common ground too. They both were great strategists and Albedo’s wide range of knowledge proved itself to be quite useful. He was experienced and flexible in many ways that Keqing couldn’t quite grasp from the get go. She also learned to accept his enigmatic nature and eccentric approach. He truly knew what he was talking about, and that was the only thing that should’ve mattered, even though he could occasionally say some weird stuff.

Keqing also learned a few things about herself. For example, it turned out drawing really calmed her nerves and let her mind rest while being occupied at the same time. She tried it in secret first, not giving it much thought, but eventually got pretty invested.

When her and Albedo have a pleasant time sketching and talking and planning, comes the perfect time for the boys to have her off their backs and cause some mischief, eheh.

can i request team headcanons for: fischl, zhongli, xinyan, and sucrose?

Hey, thank you for your request and I’m terribly sorry for the long wait!

Team Headcanons: Fischl, Zhongli, Xinyan and Sucrose

Zhongli is most definitely the dad of the group. He may be distant and quiet at times, but it doesn’t mean he doesn’t care about his teammates.

His care will manifest itself in a lot of different ways. Sometimes he brings some snacks with him to give to the girls during their travels, shields them during battles or brings some pretty flowers always going on about some interesting floral facts or meanings behind certain plants in culture.

He truly respects Fischl’s identity and never shows even a tiny bit of disturbance despite her obscure way of communication. She unexpectedly liked his company too and in return didn’t ask questions about him coincidentally resembling geo archon.

Zhongli found himself and Sucrose sharing a common attitude of mind, so he gladly helped her with all kinds of experiments with Liyue flora and fauna. She was a bit shy at first, but had quickly realised Zhongli was being genuine and moreover a very knowledgeable man who truly knows what he is talking about, even though he may seem quite eccentric at times.

It was like he never runs out of stories to tell, and Sucrose, being the most patient in the group, often served as the best listener. Sometimes she even got a bit too invested, so Fischl and Xinyan almost had to cover her mouth a few times, when she was eager to ask for another story to listen to.

Xinyan was probably the most reluctant to hang out with “the old man in his old pompous suit”. They didn’t match well in character, so Xinyan often stayed quite annoyed by Zhongli’s antics. Her rebellious nature could not allow her to hang out with some old-timer, who, at the first glance, perfectly resembled all that she despised in people.

She mostly preferred Fischls company since they both had this unconventional vibe going on. Xinyan loved her fashion sense but perceived her character as more of a stage image, she was quite surprised to find out she is not a part of some famous Mondstadt band.

When Zhongli first overheard Xinyan complaining to the Traveler that he “doesn’t rock», he decided it was time to step up his game to appeal more to the young generation.

The next time Xinyan started throwing some snarky comments during one of the missions Zhongli decided it was a perfect time for a show.

Without looking back at his much younger teammates, he masterfully casted his meteor ult. Needless to say, Xinyan’s heart has melted right there and then. She actually was impressed enough to ask Zhongli to help her with decorating the scene for her next show and maybe to thrown in a few “special effects”.
