hihi congrats on 100 !! for the event could you please do ranpo!reader x albedo or xiao?? 🤔🤔
a/n: choosing albedo for this one
the Chief Alchemist of Mondstadt would obviously be aware of your existence. his interests jumping from one place to another, would not realize that you, alone, will extend his prolonged interest on you. he heard about you due to your reputation in the City of Freedom. your first meeting was quiet. you were silently eating, eyes closed, although facing Albedo. he then asked if he would like a discussion with you.
you two entered a relationship, and despite being as arrogant as you present yourself as, you still are childish. albedo usually brings you sweets and you sit yourself somewhere in Albedo's lab, answering questions he asks you, and sometimes asking for your opinion. he doesn't mind you being blunt about it, but you never seem to open your eyes. they were always crescents every time he looks at you. he does this for the sole reason that you were lazy.
you tease him a lot whenever you feel like it, and he teases you back on occasion. the first time he did this, though, only earned a second of shock from you, and that raised Albedo's pride.
you were able to figure out who he was in mere minutes, genuinely surprising him, and further interesting him. sometimes, he asks if he could eat the sweets you bring along with you, and you decline most of the time, but you know that Albedo eats your sweets even if you don't allow him too. you told him this, and you swore you saw the a faint blush on his cheeks while denying such an act.
it doesn't help if he is secretive or mysterious, for you have deciphered him like a simple child's puzzle in mere seconds. normally helping him in cases, even though he was deemed to be a genius, both of you know that you were more experienced, and more of a genius than him. he quickly realized that you were unable to do such standard actions when he sent you off one time. he made you admit it with a smug grin on his face, while you were muttering incoherent words. you admitted it while you flail your arms and legs around, and that elicited a chuckle from Albedo.
overall, a hilarious and powerful dynamic. despite your childishness and Albedo's distant nature, you two work very well. although you sometimes piss him off, you apologize profusely with those awfully gorgeous eyes, and he has to physically restrain himself from hugging the living life out of you. Albedo 10/10 would recommend.
