Starlight Shining D.Va by Tevyat (China Fan Skin Contest 2025)
The Ambiguous State Of Tevyat
Tevyat has its own laws in a lot many contexts, but do you ever wonder, does sexism and homophobia exist in the world of tevyat and so correlating to the world of Genshin Impact? Let me know your views.
I read about that confirmation from Arcane’s creators that homophobia and sexism does not simply exist in the universe of Arcane– and I think this is one of the reasons why the representation and the character writing (women’s especially) shines in arcane. There has already been enough praise about Arcane’s writing so I won’t get into it here.
But that made me think that Is that not the perfect setting to write endearing characters in? It eliminates a much more complicated aspect and leaves you with people as an empty blank slate– whose grievances will be based on class struggle, capitalism etc– sure. But it lets everyone be just… everyone. If that makes sense. Why I also relate to that method of storytelling is because (I promise it's about genshin, wait for it) I do end up writing my stories that way– at least a lot of my characters, who have mostly deconstructed most of their ingrained prejudices by the time the story starts, so I can focus on their struggle as related to the story then.
It also got me thinking about Genshin.
SEXISM in the world of Tevyat…
Does not exist. I believe and concur so. Gender-specific crimes have been implied (see Lynette’s story), but in the entirety of its socio political landscape, sexism does not exist in tevyat.
In a world where women harness powers greater than men a lot of times, rule nations and none bats an eye. Soldiers exist as soldiers, knights exist as knights– not women, not men. (My egalitarian perspective’s start to ideal world, really)
I think sexism not existing in the world of Genshin is just very obvious, by the nature of it being an anime-stylised gacha game as well.
HOMOPHOBIA in the world of Tevyat…
Is harder to discuss because even if homophobia does not exist in tevyat, it sure does exist in China. A lot.
But despite that fact, let’s discuss it. HYV has always massively queer-coded their games (go argue with the wall, this is an obvious fact). Even in the face of strict censorship laws, they haven’t really been afraid to confirm (gay) relationships in some other games (see Bronya-Seele from HI3 and Kiana-Mei from HI3). Genshin taps a wider audience thus shies away from direct mentions. But the amount of queer coding? It’s there. Even if you are not a shipper.
I think I would like to mention one of the more highly-implied stances of queer relationship–
See Yoimiya’s story quest 1. The two guy ‘best friends’ who we help make up and their yearning to watch the fireworks together.
Of course, this is all very ambiguous. But with so many characters being into the traveller (despite the gender dynamics) and despite which twin you chose–
For example, Shenhe’s implication that Xiao must have found someone special in a voiceline exists even if you chose Aether or Lumine. It makes me think and believe that homophobia also does not exist.
No wonder I love the game so much.
This might all be very obvious to some people here and I might just be over-explaining it, but this assumption of Tevyat being exempt from sexism and homophobia was only a subconscious one for me until recent times and I just wanted to hear everyone’s thoughts on it as well.
I’ve been getting so so so many ideas Lmaoo and thank you guys so much❤️
I’m still trying to figure out stuff on this app but rest assure I hope my writing is enjoyable
I’ll be a lil busy this week cause I’m designing stuff for a school fashion show( do Lmk if you guys wanna actually see the designs) but again thank you so much ❤️❤️
In my feelings
Lyney x gn reader
Fluff
What happens when you confess your feelings to your crushes sister to rant but…. Wait.. it’s his sister right???
The sun was shining brightly on a wonderful afternoon in Fontaine as [name] went over to their favourite cafe, it’s quite rare to catch her best friend Lynette since she’s busy being her brothers assistant all the time, but oh my, her brother was something else alright…
The way he made them smile and make them feel warm and fuzzy inside made them finally realise her feelings for him (thank god🙏)
They was walking on her way to the cafe when she saw a sudden figure rushing in a corner from street to street
“Lynette..? What is she doing..? HEY! LYNETTE?!”
The figure turned around to look at them and ran as they looked confused and followed, over the streets of Fontaine like a maze chase they tried to figure out why why Lynette was ignoring them
As they finally caught up to “Lynette” she spoke in a breathless manner
“Lynette… why’re you avoiding me?”
“Oh… me..? I was um… I didn’t see you, lyney put me up to work so..”
“Oh…Well do you have time now??”
“Uh sure..,what is it”
“Your brother…I feel like I’ve fallen in love with him he’s just so kind and nice to me and no one’s been so approaching and caring and nice to me.. I just… he’s so pretty too.. do you think I have a chance with him?”
Lyney- I mean Lynette stood their shocked, only it wasn’t actually Lynette.. lyney wanted to test run her outfit for an upcoming show, oh well, his face was red as she proceeded to remove the wig
“Lyney?!” they looked shocked and embarrassed, after all they just confessed her feelings to her crush- yikes
“Ma Cherie…I… I’ve felt the same way… that’s why I gave you those rainbow roses, I feel like you, you make my heart beat so fast I, I can’t explain it, so.. let me show it to you please..?”
At their nod he pulled them close, his arm wrapped around their waist as he whispered something in their ear “I’m so glad you told me..”
Before kissing them softly, the kiss was sweet and it truly showed the way he loved them
He always will
Extra:
Lynette came in
“Hey brother have you seen my outfit- never mind..”🧍🏻♀️
Slight Ooc, Tighnari didn’t come home… I love him and know he’s on the standard banner! And really want him T^T but I already spent all my gems!
But basically I couldn’t observe his character through voice-over.
—————————————————————-
Tighnari Creator Headcannons
“You want to know about Creator? …Y/N? Haypasia has been absolutely inching to met her… I would also like to ask her some questions.”
Tighnari’s a believer but he won’t shout it from a roof top. He’s calmer, more composed.
If he sees you on the street in a crowd (your always drawing a crowd) he’d simply walk away and hopes to catch you at a better time.
He finally got to speak to you because you were out in the forest. He watched you for a little while: the way the forest seemed to react to you; he found it fascinating. Poisonous plants and mushrooms seemed to avoid your touch when you reached for them!
When you yourself ignored this fact, trying to grab a particularly deadly mushroom Tighnari found even himself jumping to stop you from touching it.
He would be lecturing you for at least an hour- no a day! “Those are deadly to even touch Your Grace! proper removal will have to be done immediately- and who let the Devine creator come out unsupervised!? What would have happened if you did die!” And so on…
If he’s your favorite character… I’d latch onto him asap- because if you don’t he’ll fade to the background! Observing you from afar because he already has so many important duties!
He’s trying not to add creators babysitter to that list-
He likes being close to you- but he has so much to do, it’s not that he doesn’t want to spend every hour of his day with you, but he doesn’t have an hour of his day.
I’d just hang around him, follow Tighnari around and try not to cause trouble. He find some of your words strange ‘come home’? At one point you asked for some ‘Eiussy’..? He hopes it doesn’t mean what he thinks it does.
If he is your favorite he takes pride in it. I imagine him being very happy about the fact- he won’t gloat (too much\Barely at all), maybe just casually bring it up with cyno or someone else.
Ask to pet his ears. He can’t deny you for whatever reason! He also love how you pet them- his tail too. (I love Tighnari </3 I-T^T)

-Hybrids/Oni have a stronger connection to you, friendship Lvl or not.(Of course- If a character is lvl 5 and above they beat the hybrid character out by a long shot. It’s just a small boost)

You heard him! Be kind! 💛🌼✨
☆ ☼ ☆ Genshin Impact: Aether Star Bead Necklace ☆ ☼ ☆
To match the Lumine necklace i made, here is jewelry inspired by the other Genshin protagonist, Aether!
Studying the colors of both travelers has been interesting. They both share a lot of tones, but each sibling is noticeably cooler or warmer toned than the other. They complement each others looks very well.
Which of the siblings did you chose to play as? I'm all ways curious who folks pick and why.

Serenitea Pot mains!! We're finally getting a Fontaine teapot realm, I'm so happy and the circled area will be underwater 🙌🏾
