@steadfastspirits​  asked:     “ They say that the best blaze brightest when circumstances are at their worst. ”        [ albedo @ mona! i saw you reblogging memes and went back through the tag, this one is from the howl's moving castle post if you're still accepting! ]

“  is  that  so?  then  i  must  burn  brighter  than  the  sun  at  this  rate. ”   her  laughter  fades  to  a  nervous  sigh.  still  struggling  to  make  ends  meet  despite  splurging  on  friends.   “ thank  you,  albedo.  your  words  always  have  a  way  to  calm  my  thoughts. ”

       Collei was ... hesitant. 

      She hadn’t stepped through Mondstadt’s gates since she had left to Sumeru, yet walking through it again ? It felt like ... returning home. When she evaluates the feeling, it’s a strange one. She had only been here for a week at most, her time of which had made her face a swordsman of ice and her own harsh residue. 

      It reminds her of the harsh feeling as it was sealed away, the way that it had tore at her core. 

      But it also reminded her of festival food, of gliding past the large statue of a god, of the first shot of a slingshot -- hitting the target despite the way her hands shook and waved. 

      So, when Collei received the letter from Amber requesting to see her again, to visit this festival. Well ... she decided that she had turned away one too many, and this was the time that she would accept. 

      Glancing around, Collei couldn’t say that she was too terribly familiar with Springvale, but she could tell that the place had been adorned to the nines, the smell of festival food immediately drawing her in. 

      Hadn’t Amber said she would meet her here ? Collei glances around, hoping to catch sight of the familiar red bow. Oh boy ... it had been a long time, hasn’t it ? What if Amber had changed ? What if she didn’t recognize her ? She had gone through a bit of a growth spurt ...

@steadfastspirits for the genshin ask meme - barbara!

meme / accepting

barbara: you’re a tourist traveling teyvat, which locations in the game would you want to visit in person?

oh dang, that's a pretty hard list to narrow down. i think i would wanna visit all of the main cities in each of the nations, just to be able to eat the food and buy stuff like that. in mond, definitely windrise just because i really do like massive trees and that would greatly tickle my fancy.

in liyue, i think i'd like qingce village bc it seems like a nice place to relax and just sit with old yeyes and nainais to drink some tea and chill.

for a similar thing, chinju forest in inazuma and i really like the general atmosphere of watatsumi island.

in sumeru, just the rain forest in general and the port seem like nice places to be. i mean the port is shady yeah, but also it seems very lively. i wouldn't go to the desert even if i wanna see the ruins bc i would overheat in a heartbeat.

Why did the Tenryou Commission have dozens of cows surround the grand shrine?

They were trying to beef up security. [cyno, in the most deadpan tone of all time.]

After a bout of hysterical laughter, Itto finally sobered up and got to thinking. He had to come up with one just as brilliant, until--

“Okay, okay-- Geology rocks, but Geography is where it’s at! ...Geddit?”

@steadfastspirits​ - Albedo

“Albedo, are you in? I brought you some extra art supplies!” Meaning his usual paper and some charcoal. Nix had decided to come back to Dragonspine for some of the silver to be found but it always came with the possibility of seeing the other. He was, at least, a dear friend of hers and wanted to make sure he was alright.

What's the difference between a literalist and a kleptomaniac?

A literalist takes things literally.

A kleptomaniac takes things, literally. [ cyno deadpan hours............. ]

When traveling through unfamiliar lands, it only made sense to traverse through various areas with someone who could reasonably be considered an expert in the local terrain and such. Every climate had their own set of challenges and as much as Aether would like to believe in his own survival chops, Sumeru wasn’t exactly where he wanted his journey to end if he could help it. 

So if Cyno was willing to come along, he would certainly employ his help, even if there were some people who weren’t the most keen to have the other come along. 

And for the most part, he didn’t really get why that was, at least not until the entirety of the party was in this ruin for the time being to pass the evening - the other’s apparently dry humor rearing it’s head. 

“Oh.” Belatedly, he could hear the smack and drag of Tighnari’s glove across the forest ranger’s face.

The joke wasn’t bad! But also so unexpectedly out of nowhere. A polite laugh came from the traveler, Aether doing his best to add onto the joke maybe?

“H-Haha, that’s so good - it’s gonna put me in a com(m)a?” 

[archive-askganondorftobadragmire]

What do you call a Gibdo who doesn't joke around?

Dead serious. [ cyno deadpan hours!! i was gonna use redeads but realized with where your ganondorf was set on the timeline, those haven't appeared in hyrule yet ]

That gets a chuckle out of him, plus a rare snort. Good job. "That is very true."

[ hopping on the calis adoration hours bandwagon, because you deserve it on your special day!! happy birthday friend - i've always loved seeing your itto around on the dash, what with my habit of lurking, and i've really enjoyed our conversations so far! we've only been talking for a little bit, and i'm super excited to keep hanging out and roleplaying with you going forward! your itto headcanons are so, so in-depth - i already loved itto, but somehow you make me cherish him all the more with how you portray him!! i hope you get to enjoy lots of cake, too ]

Dude, seriously, right back at you! Although I've yet to RP with you just yet (we're getting there, though!), I can easily say you have one of my favorite Itto portrayals, too, and that you're really in-depth and a lot of fun to talk to! I know it can be hard for duplicates to synergize well, especially since a lot of people are justified in their anxieties, but I find it incredibly fun to connect to you and see your own thought process on him! Aside from that, you've got a really great collection of muses overall I've seen nothing but good things from, and I'm excited to RP with as many of them as possible because I know you do them so much justice and more! <3
