~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stelle!mc gasped as her vision blurred with Kafka in sight to passing out and waking up to March 7th and Dan Heng. The stellaron holder joined the astral express and started to smile and even began joking with March as the two watched a movie and relaxing with Dan Heng as he entered information into the Astral express database. Himeko and Welt made her feel welcomed and of course, Stelle!mc spent time with them and Pom Pom. There were times the stellaron within her would cause her pain, as she curled up alone in her room trying to sleep.
Each planet made Stelle!mc appreciate the nameless more and more. Penacony was rough for them as Dan Heng and March clung to Stelle!mc due to the moment her life was threatened, and she didn't mind. More planets pass as the three of them stuck closer than ever, feelings unmentioned, until one planet filled with destruction, ended up with the trio were surrounded and Stelle!mc took an attack meant for March and went down. This caused Dan Heng to rage and deal with the rest of the attackers as March applied pressure to the wound.
"March... Get Dan Heng and... Get out... I can't hurt you two..." Stelle!mc struggled to speak as she held the stellaron within her from exploding. Dan Heng returned rushed.
"You're talking like you're dying, Stelle!mc. You're not." March teared up as Dan Heng kissed the top of Stelle!mc's head, leading March to gently kiss Stelle!mc's cheek. The two received an 'I love you' from the dying woman before Dan Heng got March to the express.
Stelle!mc teared up as she looked at the sky one last night as the stellaron exploded the planet into a supernova with the Astral express further away from it. A crying Dan Heng held a sobbing March as Welt and Himeko tried to keep it together as they watched the supernova come to be.
A little girl at the age of five opened her eyes and she silently freaked out at her appearance, then wondered why. "I lost them, but I can't remember who they are..." She mumbled before stumbling out of the bed she was in. Stelle!mc Abyss!mc slowly started on her chores around the orphanage like the other children, every day until the age of thirteen, where she snuck out at night to see if she could look at the stars. Abyss!mc yelped as she ran into a tall woman and immediately began to apologize with her eyes closed and head down, afraid of being hit.
Ronova looked at the thirteen year old in bemusement knowing that the child was Khaenri'ahn, but hints of something else was in her soul. The shade of Death decided then and there that they small child would get a slightly different curse. The young child looked up at her confused.
"You're a strange lady, Miss. Usually adults would punish me for running into them..." The young girl whispered, causing Ronova to frown.
"And those punishments include?" The shade of Death asked, kneeling down, causing the young girl to flinch back. Ronova hid the anger she had for Khaenri'ah as the young girl hesitantly started listing off the punishments, from slapping and kicking to cuts, bruises and burns.
"That's just the rule towards orphans that are deemed undesirable to adopt. That rule was set by the sages, and most people follow it since the sages are second to the royal family. Each orphan deemed undesirable is branded as so." The young girl mumbled, hesitant to reveal the brand that declared her undesirable to adopt.
"I see... May I look at the brand?" Ronova asked, causing the girl to look up at her with golden, starry eyes. The hesitation was seen as the young girl showed a black four point star marking on her back. That was confirmation to the shade of Death that Khaenri'ah was to be punished.
Abyss!mc was confused on why the strange lady was angry before feeling sleepy. Her eyes got heavy as she fell into the arms of the strange lady, unaware that she had saved herself from the brutal curse the rest of Khaenri'ah had earned. As she slept, the brand on her back changed from a black four point star to a golden six point star with two sets of rings surrounding it.
Ronova sent the young girl to a cozy cave in Fontaine, with Asmoday and Isoroth's help. More children of Khaenri'ah were spared and sent all over Teyvat with no memories of the Cataclysm nor the knowledge of what the black star meant to protect the young girl she had met and those like her.
Furina!mc had been ruling Fontaine with Focalors's help for fifty years now, and Focalors decided she needed a break. So here she was, walking around Fontaine's wilderness to calm down and take a break. Said break doesn't last long as Furina!mc felt a pull, and she decided to follow it. Within forty minutes, the acting Hydro Archon found a cave and walked into it as the pull grew stronger.
Inside the cave was a little girl with black hair, sleeping peacefully. That was the moment one of the shades appeared, making Furina!mc cover her mouth to hide a yelp. "Apologies Young one, I know you're usually busy, but I'd like for you to take this young girl in. Ronova would love to, but I'm afraid she doesn't know how to raise children. Please take care of her." The Shade of Time explained, leading Furina!mc to the sleeping child. Then suddenly the two women panicked as the young girl slowly started to wake up. Furina!mc paused as the young girl made eye contact with her, revealing the golden, starry eyes that had made the Shade of Death spare many children of Khaenri'ah.
Abyss!mc looked around. "Where's the strange lady, and where am I?" She asked sleepily, rubbing her eyes. It was then that Abyss!mc had everything explained to her about the situation and the strange lady was the Shade of Death.
"May I see your back really quick, young one?" The shade of time asked, causing Abyss!mc to hesitate before nodding. She shuffled around to show the brand, none aware that it had changed just yet. A small gasp from the lady in blue, and a small 'huh' from the Shade of Time made Abyss!mc confused before feeling a gentle hand on her back.
"It's no longer a black brand... It's not even a four point star either." The shade mumbled.
"It was a brand?! Who in their right mind would brand a child? You know what, they were probably dealt with." The blue lady tried calming herself down.
Abyss!mc felt herself gasp in excitement as she watched the blue lady pull out two hand held mirrors to show her the black four point star brand was a golden six point star with two rings surrounding it in a wide 'x'. "Woah... That's pretty..." The young girl whispered loudly.
"Seems Ronova was right... There's something special about you." The Shade smiled softly before letting the lady in blue introduce herself.
"My name is Furina!mc de Fontaine, and if you allow me, I'll take you somewhere safe and warm. You'll never have to worry about people harming you." The now introduced Furina!mc held her hand out.
Abyss!mc hesitantly took it. "I... I'm Abyss!mc. It's nice to meet you." She smiled with her eyes closed. That day ended with Abyss!mc being given a home, and an adult she could trust.
Another fifty years pass as Abyss!mc turned fourteen, her aging slowed down with Isoroth's assistance, that's what they thought anyway. During the years Furina!mc had adopted Abyss!mc. The young woman, who's hair was getting lighter for some reason, was having some terrible luck for whatever reason, she tried to find her custom star drop earrings (like a four point star with a water drop hanging from it), unaware that someone or something was preventing her from being in her mother's office, and that her mother had met Leviathan (pre Neuvillette as we all know). She grinned as she found the earrings and put them in. As she walked into her mother's office, she noticed her mother gently banging her head on the wall.
"Big brother Dottore would not like the idea of you hurting yourself, mother." Abyss!mc called out with a mischievous smile. She received a playful glare in response before Furina!mc pulled her into a hug and began smothering her in motherly affection.
Leviathan awkwardly walked back to the Hydro Archon's office, unused to these mortal clothes and paused when he heard laughter from the Hydro Archon and a young voice. He continued his walk, into the office, making the hydro archon and the young girl in her arms to pause.
All the Hydro sovereign did was show his confusion with a head tilt, as the young teenage girl slipped out of the Hydro Archon's arms.
"I'll be going to my studies now, Mother. My tutors are probably expecting me now." The young girl spoke so sophisticatedly, before nodding at Leviathan and leaving.
"Don't make any of them quit! I can't handle another Tutor telling me you got into the weapons again!" The Hydro Archon replied before she payed proper attention to him.
Abyss!mc snickered as she went to her study and began dealing with her work. She had also taken time between Tutors to write her brother a letter about her mischief and how she couldn't wait to see him soon.
Four hundred years go by as an eighteen year old Abyss!mc did her best to keep out of trouble as she glared coldly at Arlecchino, who had made the mistake of pissing her off. The dark grey haired woman did her best to stay away from the knave and stayed close to her mother. Everything goes smoothly during the trial, as she glared at anyone against her mother, knowing how she did her best to keep Fontaine a float. "If you're going to be cursing anyone out, have it be my grandmother, the original Hydro Archon Egeria. She's the one at fault for the prophecy. My mother and aunt have done their best to correct their mother's mistakes!" Abyss!mc spoke coldly, making every citizen fall silent.
With the prophecy prevented and Fontaine safe, Abyss!mc held her mother gently as they mourned Focalors for her sacrifice. The De Fontaine family went to sleep that night quietly.
Abyss!mc woke up with a panic attack as she regained her memories of the Astral express, as she felt the stellaron within her soul no longer hurting her as it was more like a star itself instead of a world destroying bomb. Of course she felt something shift within her, causing her to yelp as her connection to the abyss changed to hold parts of the stellaron within. Abyss!mc Stelle!mc She screamed loudly and curled into a ball, causing her family to rush into her room to witness the mini explosion of abyss and the stellaron fragments fusing, as her dark grey hair faded to light grey at the tips.
Furina!mc panicked as Neuvillette held her back from her daughter. Dottore had been visiting and covered Seraphina's eyes, and the few Melusines living with them looked away before Abyss!mc passed out from pain. Furina!mc got out of her husband's grip to check on her daughter. "She's got a slight fever, but overall she seems okay." Furina!mc spoke softly, causing everyone to relax slightly.
Meanwhile, it's only because five and a half months since for the astral express since Stelle!mc died. Dan Heng and March clung to each other quietly before Himeko barged into March's room. "Pom Pom just saw a beacon that had the same energy as Stelle!mc's supernova." The Red haired woman blurted out, causing the two young adults to look up with hope.
"She could be alive?" Dan Heng whispered, before the two got up and out towards the main room. March nervously grabbed Dan Heng's hand at the possibility of the woman they love being alive. Welt was already looking at the planet that beacon came from.
The nameless were unaware that Stelle!mc could see them from her fever induced dream. "Don't. It's still dangerous here." She mumbled, feeling eyes on her. "Teyvat's got issues. Don't want you to be hurt." She tried smiling at them, seeing March tear up as the stary apparition she made. "Memories are a bit fuzzy right now. I'll be fine." Stelle!mc spoke softly, feeling both Dan Heng and March's hands on her face.
"We'll find you again, and we're not letting go next time." March mumbled. Dan Heng nodded with a small smile.
"I'll hold you to it then." Stelle!mc replied with a smile.
Abyss!mc woke up a few days later and slowly sat up, touching her teary face. "I have to help." She mumbled, stumbling out of bed and out of her room, only to be forced back into bed by Dottore.
"You're still sick. Rest." Dottore started with no room for arguments. The rest of the week passed by with a slow annoyance to Abyss!mc as she started telling her family about her life as Stelle!mc.
This has everything I want in a idea and MORE.
I mean, HSR/Genshin crossover? Stelle!MC to Abyss!MC? A NICE Ronova, and one who actually helped saved Khaenri'ahian children in need of saving? And then of course, Dottore being Furina!MC's adopted son!
Oh, and now Abyss!Mac remembers her past life, and the Express was coming to Teyvat! The fam can reunite afain! 😭
Sides that, but I stop imagining Abyss!MC was the one to find and bring young Dottore to Furina!MC. Like she finds him all alone while they're visiting Sumeru, and brings him to her mama, being all like "Can we keep him?".
And then there was Neuvillette, she was an absolute menace towards the Sovereign in the early years, even more so when he showed attraction towards her mom, but she does eventually deemed him worthy of Furina!MC's heart.
