A NEW ADDITION TO THE FAMILY
This will have around 10 parts if I have enough motivation
(Where Wanderer, {{name}} and Durin reunite.) I tried to make this genderfluid and please be warned I forced myself to write this because I wanted them to interact again..which means there might be mistakes since I'm tired from my exams.
When Wanderer and {{name}} heard about Durin's transformation into a human, they both had mixed reactions. {{name}} was excited, practically begging Wanderer to go to Mondstat while Wanderer was silent. Even tho he looked blank on the outside Wanderer's thoughts were all over the place. He felt happy but also worried for Durin.
It took about two days to convince Wanderer with the help of Nahida, and finally, the two were allowed to go to Mondstat to visit Durin. When they first arrived, {{name}} was looking around in excitement, dragging him around the city to look around, while Wanderer only sighed in annoyance. This continued for a few minutes before he had enough.
"You do remember that we came here for something else, right? Or did you get sidetracked again." His words were laced with annoyance and impatience which seemed to catch {{name}} attention. A smirk played on their lips as they took the chance to tease him.
"So you do miss him? I knew some part of you missed Mini Durin." This seemed to catch Wanderer's attention as he scoffed, quickly denying it.
"What are you on about? I'm just here because you dragged me to this stupid city.." Wanderer grumbled under his breath, turning his head to the side. This made {{name}} amused, but before they could tease him anymore, a voice caught there attention. {{name}} and Wanderer turned around just in time before they were smacked over by a force, a small grunt leaving their lips.
It all happened in a blur one second two voices that sound familiar to the Traveler and Paimon called out to them, then the next second, they were on the floor with someone hugging them. {{name}} took the time to recover while Wanderer glared at the source, only to pause. The boy who knocked them down looked no younger than 13. His red eyes clashed with Wanderer's as the two had a stare off before Paimon's voice pulled them from their thoughts.
"Oh no, Durin, are you okay? Quick Traveler Albedo's gonna kill us if Durin gets injured..he just woke up a day ago. Didn't he say something about him needing time to stabilize..oh my god-" The Traveler covered Paimon's panicked murmurs with their hand, sighing to themselves before they could speak {{name}} wrapped their arms around Durin with a smile, pure excitement in their face.
"This is Durin now? Oh my archons..hes so cute, Wanderer look!" They exclaimed in excitement, turning to Wanderer, who only remained silent the entire time, watching the scene with a blank look before he sighed.Durin, however, was excited, staring up at him expectantly.
"Hatguy, look! I'm human now, just like everyone." Durin turned around, showing off his new human form. His hair was a light shade of purple, two black horns peaking from his head. His red eyes that now shinned with excitement, staring up at him expectantly. His clothes consisted of a simple white shirt that looked a little too big for him, making him look even more adorable. {{name}} looked seconds away from crushing him, their hold on him tight as they complimented him left and right.
"You guys are gonna make a scene if this continues." Wanderer complained, standing up with a sigh before brushing off his clothes. After a few seconds, the two also got off the ground, but there was something wrong with Durin. His once excited look now looked gloomy as he stared up at the Wanderer with sad eyes.
"Did you not miss me, Hat guy?" The sad look in his eyes seemed to make Wanderer pause, his expression softening slightly before he crossed his arms with a sigh.
"Good to see you too, I guess.." His voice was calm yet held a slightly gentle tone in it that seemed to make Durin perk up slightly, his bright smile returning. Before he could speak {{name}} but in,
"Don't mind Wanderer.. we both missed you, that's why we are here, right Wanderer? Are you okay now? Have you eaten? You're not hurt, right?""
Their voice was filled with relief and happiness as they doted on Durin, who seemed to smile even more, nodding along with their questions.
The Traveler and Paimon watched the domestic scene before Paimon turned to whisper,
"Don't they look like a family, Paimons so happy for them.." The Traveler agreed with a small smile, before glancing at Wanderer who was silent the entire time. His chest felt tight for some reason making him even more overwhelmed..why did he feel so happy? The Wanderer's thoughts were in a jumble before {{name}} waved their hands over his face with a concerned smile.
"Teyvat to Wanderer? Oh, you're alive.. The Traveler and Paimon proposed that we spend time with Durin today and since he doesn't have proper clothes yet.. we should definitely go shopping." Their excitement made Wanderer roll his eyes before he glanced over at Durin, who looked just as excited at the thought of spending time together.
"Can we, Can we!?" Durin looked up at him expectantly, his small black wings flapping slightly in excitement, making Wanderer pause, making a mental note to himself about them. After a few convincing words, he sighed in annoyance.
"You! Fine... just don't run off." *He grumbled before grunting at the feeling of someone grabbing his hand. He looked down in annoyance at seeing Durin before sighing silently, following him. {{Name}} was just as excited, holding Durin's hand as they walked around. To the folks in Mondstat city, they looked almost like family.
A young boy walking with his parents. What a sweet sight.
