this life, just like a light trickle of song

gacha hell containment sideblog. fontaine enjoyer, dragon apologist and skirk main. PLEASE read pinned post!

[singerofmanywaters]

This isn't my main blog!! This is a brainrot sideblog because I was only a casual fan and lurker before the soggy french sea creatures ruined me but I don't want to subject my current mutuals to my cringe. My personal/main blog is @ fourspiceblend, I follow back/like posts from there, sorry for any confusion! (if you're somehow here from there I'm sorry you found my dark side) more important info below :)

💙 Furina and Neuvillette ruined my life, I also love them individually and I loved their friendship even before putting shipping goggles on, they've got me by the balls since 4.1, I don't think I'm ever gonna move on from them. Idk why I didn't do this earlier and I also dk how long I'll keep this blog active but I broke my months-long tumblr break just for them because I need a place to YELL without a character limit! I'm also on twitter (frq ok!) and bluesky!

💙 Skirk is my current MAIN main, Mavuika secondary main. Still have C6R1 Neuvi and C5R1 Furina (I know, I know). I'm no hardcore meta slave and I usually just love investing in my faves. NA server.

💙 other favorites: Skirk, Nahida, Wanderer, Arlecchino, Zhongli, Ei, Beidou, Dehya, Durin, Nicole, Dottore, Faruzan, Sara. This list changes frequently btw.

💙 I'm a multishipper! I won't make a list, just know whatever I reblog a lot of is a favorite. I like a combination of f/f, m/f, and m/m, as well as poly, I don't really think about top/bottom at all, and traveler ships don't tend to be my thing.

💙 I talk spoilers and leaks! and I occasionally rant. I always put everything under a Read More and whenever I do talk negativity/discourse I always tag it for your filtering needs. Sorry to engage in it but you guys know what this fandom is like and this is pretty much my safe space for yelling into the void about toxicity or my gripes with the writers lol.

🖤 Furina isn't an incapable child, she isnt your y/n personality-less "relatable girlfailure", or a separate being from Focalors/a puppet she created. She isn't an afterthought to the archon lineup, they are not doing charity for her by including her where she belongs by default, there is no such thing as an "honorary archon" or "marketed as an archon", and we do NOT have "two hydro archons!", or three, or none. We have one and it's Furina. This is not debatable and if any of this is something you can't accept as a canon fact I can't force you to agree with me but this just might not be the most pleasant account for you to hang around.

🖤 I'm the #1 Nod-Krai hater. Sorry.

🖤 I don't do DNIs but if you are constantly causing drama in the community and harrassing creatives for not drawing/writing what you want, are obsessed with nuclear family headcanons or act like shipping preferences are a 1:1 equivalent to people's morality or sexuality or whatever please just block me lol, I'm an old hag with no time for ship discourse or ship to ship combat and I am fan of characters first and foremost before I am a shipper, I know how volatile this fandom is over the most innocuous things (which is the reason I've avoided being involved in it until now) I am only here to brainrot about my favs and nothing more!

6.7 world quest spoilers // rant //

Good lord the more I know about the moon sisters the more I despise their frivolous, incompetent, Celestia glazing asses. You will NEVER make me feel sympathy for them or their equally centrist, status quo enjoying heir who can only say "another dragon who puts people in jail oh nooo" about a sovereign who was killed in his past life due to her sisters failing at their job and who believes nothing about Teyvat should ever be changed because it's perfect as it is. The dragons deserved better. The ACTUAL dragons who were the real native life of Teyvat were looked down upon by pieces of tech... I can't believe daddy Nibelung did one (1) thing wrong (thankfully he atoned!).

any thoughts about the upcoming 6.7 event in fontaine? I personally have a lot of thoughts and want to hear yours

I do!! I have both positive and not so positive thoughts 😅 leaks stuff, wall of text rambles below

My main takeaway is that the event story is permanent and will revolve around Sandrone's revival and basically be her story quest. I don't have complaints about that, they basically did the same thing with Zibai, and it looks like it'll revolve around welcoming her back home to Fontaine which she clearly missed and wanted to return to, and this seems to be the reason why after three years they finally incorporated every Fontaine character in an event. Neat! Cool! I love it! Whether she stays in the Fatui or not, it seems like they're making an effort to have her connect with her actual home and perhaps have some closure with Alain which is all I've ever wanted. Her moveset and constellation name all indicate she's not going to leave his legacy behind and it's still important to her. We'll finally find out why she left Fontaine and maybe even confirm it was always a personal reason related to grief like I've always suspected. And maybe we'll even know what her actual name was!

My positive thoughts besides the above: Furina and Sandrone interactions!!!!!!! Best archon and best harbinger!!!! Furina possibly being the one who welcomes her back, making her feel back at home, finally having an actual FRIEND after hoyo decided her relationship with a certain duelist isn't important enough to ever be seen onscreen again. Sandrone finally befriending someone who's on her level of intelligence and personality. Crumbs about whether or not they had a past together!! Possible Sandrone/Neuvi interactions!! And yes, I also do like Citlali quite a lot (she's grown on me alright?) so I love the idea of her also joining in on the fun and possibly playing a key part in a certain revival (especially after she was excluded from Natlan's own summer event, what the fuck hoyo?)

My not so positive thoughts: I'm dreading the thought of her once again not having autonomy as a character. She's called a puppet, has lived her whole life in the shadow of someone else and being subservient to a god, even her biggest accomplishment was not something she did for herself. Her whole character arc is about learning to live for herself and finding her own purpose, which means they have to COMMIT to the idea of her not just being an extension of someone else. You can see where I'm going with this. I obviously think it's FINE for a close friendship to be important to her and it should obviously hold weight, but making her entire character arc revolve around another person would just be the final nail in the coffin and kind of crass of them to defeat the very purpose of her character like that. Especially since the other character in question doesn't revolve around her in return and has more heavy handed romantic implications with the traveler anyway. And I really, really need them to leave the bumbling tsundere ragebait nonsense behind... They've already done enough damage to the fandom perception of her. Bring back her 6.0-6.1 reddit edgelord personality, it was PERFECT.

I'm also feeling a bit... Pessimistic about Furina's involvement. I don't think she'll be completely unimportant, and I'm glad she's FINALLY going to talk to a fellow important character onscreen after all these years, but as always they'll just give us some sus as hell crumb about her (like the shot of her holding celestia a year ago and the dialogue about her role) and still leave us empty handed. I'm also wary of plot leaks; we've had leakers talk about Furina/Sandrone plot in 6.7 since 2025 and the name of a certain shade was also mentioned a lot. I don't want to get my hopes up but my heart just can't help but inhale copium 😞

As for anything shipping related, I'm keeping those thoughts to myself, but am I expecting any crumbs? No, and I'm also just not feeling very strongly about it either. My priority first and foremost is for the characters I like to be treated well individually. It's not the end of the world if I don't get crumbs 🤷‍♀️

"Furina wouldn't fit in with the rest of the archons, they wouldn't want her there, she isn't worth anything to them!"

?

Furina is and will always be acknowledged as one of the Seven because it's where she belongs by default, it's not a charity move, it's not an "honorary archon" thing, she's just as important for the endgame as the rest of the archons are, hoyo obviously has a long term plan for her and it's clear her story isn't over. The foreshadowing is there. Get over it.

[singerofmanywaters]

Hoyo: these are the seven archons, the anemo, geo, electro, dendro, hydro, pyro, and cryo archons. They are called the seven because they are seven. They are all acknowledged as such by each other.

The fanbase: um, NO!! that character is NOT an archon and the other don't want her there because she's a useless shallow irrelevant girlfailure and has nothing to do!!

Hoyo: this character is not an archon and isn't part of the seven

The fanbase: this is the most strongest specialiest powerfulest most important archon ever!!!!

[singerofmanywaters]

I love it when I see certain people imply that Furina wasn't brutalized and humiliated enough... 9 times out of ten guess what characters they stan and if they think said characters are secretly the main protagonist of Fontaine instead of her! Truly predictable, I hate boymoms with a passion.
