A self-loathing character that finds love? Comfort fics with angst sprinkled in between? A dumb smile on your face bc the characters are really vibing?

Rarepairs (with a bold R) that have partially never interacted in canon?

Congratulations for making it to the end!
Wouldn't you like to read something unique? Something that was never done before?
I wanna read the fic already, I don't need to read your long-winded pitch
You may have guessed it already, because I didn't exactly make it very difficult. But I have for you, adventurer who has made it through this long (five steps) and arduous (you had to scroll down) journey, a suggestion, or perhaps a reward, if you are so inclined.
This weary (it's 3am) and old (perhaps if we believe in reincarnation) wanderer has written a piece of fanfiction. It is unrelated to this generic medieval videogame-inspired monologue I found myself in, but very dear to my heart nonetheless. I'm sure an adventurer as brave (that much is true if you read until here, no need to jest) and clever (should I flatter both of us and say that this is also true?) as you could piece it together by themselves but it's a Freminet x Gaming x Xingqiu x Chongyun (FreXingMingYun) (why is there only one type of blue) fic, a ship that, to the best of my knowledge, I invented. It is yet unfinished but there are seven chapters already available for your perusal.
I don't need more convincing, pls give me the fic already
Just ponder its recipe for a moment...
First, you take Xingyun, already a well-known and established ship in the fandom.
Then you add Gaming, an energetic and sincere young man from the same region. Not an uncommon idea if you don't want to decide between Xingyun and ChongMing.
Now it's getting a bit tricky. For this, you are either very fond of Freminet, or you think singular dynamics would be very interesting. Gaminet is not an unpopular ship for both Freminet and Gaming. FremiYun has been garnering attention for featuring two awkward Cryo boys. FreXing has not yet reached much of any popularity (I was the first in its tag too) but just imagine the potential of two story-lovers with a heightened sense of justice.
Now, mix them all together. And this is what you'll have: A fic that focuses on the individual relationships between Freminet and Gaming, Chongyun and Xingqiu each while also showcasing their relationship as a whole and not forgetting about the relationship between Gaming, Chongyun and Xingqiu each.
Okay, yes, I got it. The fic, please?
Additional features include:
Teaching a self-loathing character about love
Lyney, Lynette and Freminet being loving siblings
Xinyan x Yun Jin cameo, Hu Tao x Yanfei cameo, ZhongChi mentions
Thought Experiment: What if Freminet (plus Lyney and Lynette) came to Liyue (they alr did during the 4.4 Lantern Rite which is why the fic is set during that time)
A love letter to Freminet's character, Liyue's world building, Fontaine's underwater world and socially awkward characters everywhere
Dear adventurer. If you're somehow reading this, uhm, well, I'm sorry, first of all. That you had to read all of this. I tried my hand at an elaborate pitch because I thought it would be funny and if you're here, it must have worked at least once. If this pitch interested you at all, I'd love for you to check out "The Sun, Moon, Stars and Their Sea" and if you come from here, it'd be so funny if you could let me know because I wanna know if this is like effective whatsoever (not that it'd stop me lmao).
You may have reached the end of this post, but this may be the beginning of yet another journey. Hope to see you soon!
Have a lovely rest of your day or night or whatever it is for you!!
