About our dearest SAGAU! Characters
The Accolades, or to you, the 'Characters of Genshin Impact' are all a part of the Readers' Court, a group of individuals chosen by the Divines true wishes and granted sanction within their realm; These individuals have the ability to draw on the Creators power, enhancing themselves in numerous ways.
General Headcanons [Game mechanics]
The Screen System [0]
Passive Talents [0]
Within the realm we have two divisions: Companions of the outer court and Suitors of the inner court.
These are all the characters that are Companions, The relationships between them and the Reader will stay friendly, familial or platonic in nature here
Others - Skirk, Miliastra Twins Fayble and Fayte, Aether, Paimon
These are all the characters that are Suitors. You will get to delve into the spectrum of love, lust and desire with them. Care for another as deep as theirs can manifest in different ways
[Please wait as these Characters are being analysed and processed]
No new Characters to be discovered
Other Ships present within the realm...
This is a Multi-Shipper safe space. These guys also have pre-established relationships with other characters or will develop through the story like for example;
Jean x Lisa
Kaeya x Albedo
Al-haitham x Kaveh
Tighnari x Cyno
Mualani x Kinich
Candace x Dehya x Dunyazard
Neuvillette x Wriothesley.
Flins x Illuga
Among many, many others.
They will not be a focus, but it is important to acknowledge that some of these characters will not just be with Reader, and that some characters that have a relationship with other characters will not be with Reader.
like for example how I will have Ayato x Reader and Ayato x Thoma but not Ayato x Reader x Thoma as Thoma will not be with Reader romantically.
We also will still be having tragic ships like Capitano x Mauvika because this version of Capitano said ‘I wish to still do my task of becoming Lord of the night.’, or ex'es Dainsleif x Lumine because I find that dynamic interesting to explore.
also Fuck buddy type relationships, Venti and Dahlia for example because that makes sense for Authors brain
Basically; The Readers court is a large Polycule

The Author, MaypleKiwi...[Current Condition - Eh]
"Tēnā Koutou! Ngā mihi nui for reading this far and reading my "Self indulgence" series :] If you're all the way down here, I'm guessing you've scrolled past your intended target- But if you're here because of me?... uh, yikes, let me see what i have for you."
It/it's preference but all others accepted - Moari/English - Autistic
I am currently going in and out of the hospital for my vision and other illnesses, that is something that will affect the timeframes of everything as i live on a farm away from any major city, some days i spend colouring in the art, and others i spend writing if i can read it- it all depends on how my vision is that day and the side affects of the medication I'm on that is present at any given time
This also means I may be gone for a period of time, if something bad were to happen, I do have a family member with ccess to this account that i have told to release what WIPs i had left and open the account to whomever
It will not get to that point, so there should be no fear.
I take everything as advice first and foremost, so any constructive criticism is accepted and encouraged!
I aim to share my own culture with others through fiction and write using my own experiences as fuel so as with all Creators there may be a bias that I am unaware of that's present in my creations, so heed the tags and the content warnings
This is not an AI accepted space
All my content was made public because of my dislike for it and the sad sight of AI taking over fandom spaces
So, to help combat it and add back human touch by releasing my interpretations into the world
This passage is to say, don't feed my writing and art into AI
"I have 50% vision, less organs than average and a developing excel sheet of issues but the spite of a rabid turtle. call me anything but consistent." - Me
"Genshin Impact, Pokemon and Minecraft are everything the runs through my head at any given minute, It's embarrassing but so rewarding" - Myself
"I write what I want to read and I draw everything that comes to me; even the crack fics and wacky sketches, you are all just the poor victims subjected to it" - and I

Prototype [Tau Segment] - Trilunar God [Omnicron Segment] - Zandik
It seems people forgot that he'd been given time altering abilities - as limited as they are, Lunar still intends to make the most of his time 500 years in the past and along the way, do some meddling.
i have a.. very silly idea. Wouldn't the acolytes be a least a little bit curious about the world that Reader came from? And if they ever ask.. Reader just- materializes a white board with the continents and countries and just starts singing this:
I just think it would be pretty funny to see the acolytes reactions to Earth having so many countries in comparison to Teyvat lmao. And some of them having.. eeriely familiar cultures, if you know what I mean.
What shape is Teyvat? [Headcanons+Drabbles 4k]
Now that's a childhood memory with the animaniacs! but i really liked this ask and in normal fashion added more than intended :] so; Heres a mix of Headcanons of some Acolytes asking about it and a oneshot after of a buch of them yapping about it
cw. SFW, Gen. Headcanons, Isekai Reader, SAGAU Characters, Flat Teyvat Theory, some chats about similarities of cultures/architecture, etc. There's no centric ships here, characters listed in tags. some real-life facts, some game facts,
All of them would be curious [Given there's nothing hanging over their heads at the time], but if everyone's just hanging out at the Teapot? There would be a few that would come up to you and ask about it very early on;
Mika and Kaveh [Generalised]
These two are more interested in the broad range of architectural and geographical structures from around the world and are very willing to sit down with an atlas, whatever books you have about said world and spend their free time isolating the different cultures depicted to compare how different or similar things are
Mika being more focused in how Earth had developed over time with landmass degradation compared to Teyvat when there is no elemental influences vs Kaveh being more focused on different cultural influences on local infrastructure and how it presents itself in your buildings
Mika has a more vested interest in Italian, Germanic and Nordic infrastructure and how their building were made to withstand the problems each of these areas faced when it comes to their landmasses
particularly with Austrias, Donauinsel, and Denmarks; Flakfortet and their uses for flood protection or as old defensive measures. Then there's the whole thing with buildings made on manmade floating landmasses. He's so very excited by the possibilities it could bring to furthering Mondstadts' expansion effort
Dont get him started on Venice. hed would absolutely become enthralled with the premise of interconnected islands, the canals, and the planning it took to build such a spectacle. Mondstadt city is an artificial fortified island itself. Introducing this to him may have him write a draft to the three leaders to suggest expansion there instead. He'll help with the landscaping!
[and volunteer your assistance unintentionally. if it gets accepted, he will apologise and offer to pay for your lunches during the process]
Kaveh is excited with the prospect of viewing new perspectives into architecture on a technical skill side. He has the experience of assisting in the design for many Sumerian buildings; those of Cultural and nationally acclaimed significance like the Palace of Alcarzarzaray and then lesser known seris of building like those he'd helped with in the Desert with Dori and Candace.
He would stick to just one. it becomes a little game between the two of you to roam through magazines to look at some of the best and wort designed homes, even dragging in Al-haitham, Tighnari, Cyno, and Collei into an argument over them when theyre all over for dinner in the city or in Ghandaraville.
He has a penchant for the landmarks of each nation and ahould you have access to the internet [or a frozen version of it when you landed in Teyvat seeing as there's no wifi] he'd ask if you could bring up the buildings for when he teaches lectures at the Akedemia as examples of intergalactic [or just international if you're still hiding the outlander aspect] architecture
Needless to say, these two are very involved when it comes to any genuine interest in investigating Earth and Teyvat.
“We could perhaps create a model of these places” Mika suggests, the two shoulder to shoulder at a sculpting desk, tucked in front of an open spaced foyer where you watch the two ruminate over a thick tome
“I'm rather adept at making model houses” Kaveh boasts excitedly, moving around a few of the thin cardboard panels on the bench “If you sculpt the land mass, I can start on drafting foundations!”
[Mondstadt - Northern Europe] Kaeya Alberich
Kaeya would be initially hesitant to ask about Mondstadt's equivalent, but it's very clear on his face that he's curious. He's smiling and joking, tip toeing the subject until you catch on
You're not sure why he's so guarded on the matter until he suggests it may relate to his own background, and you let him off.
He's interested in the prevalent wine making aspects that northern Europe promotes in the few documents you've provided to the acolytes
consuming the new titles of wines and grape varieties with a ferocious speed, something you wouldn't expect of him early in your 'getting to know eachother' phase but it becomes a common topic you both converse about regularly.
He laments to you about being unable to try all these newly found delicacies, even often sitting there and looking over the foods these wines would get paired with with you and dramatically bemoaning the missed opportunity
sure, theres a few you could remake based on what it looks like, but the proper dishes require more than just 3 ingredients, and you fear you wouldn't be able to recite any specific spices or the Teyvat equivalent to help along the investigative cooking experiments the twomof you will embark on trying to remake them
you both sit there looking through the images with a mopey look. You didn't have a way to access such scrumpcious foods or have acess to the recipes for them
“The wine and beer culture you've mentioned is something I full heartedly agree with” He cheers, a pint in his fist providing the satisfying clink against your own when you knock them together
“and here's to the hope we find those other recipes- i dont thinkni can deal with another failure” you agree, drooling over the smell of your booze and the fresh hot plate of food in front of the two of you to share. the taste of your dubious creation still lingering in the back of your throats and Kaeyas apartment stunk out, leaving you to relocate and leave the windows open to air out for the time being.
"I should kick the two of you out." Diluc sighs from behind the bar, taking your pint to refill it when you pull it away from your lips empty
Kaeya holds his own out expectantly, a grin painted on his face
"What ever for?" he points down to the meal. "We're paying customers"
Diluc glares down at the book splayed between the two of you. "Promoting outside food. and the fact you need a meal each if you're drinking, you know the rules, Kaeya. " he grimaces when his stomach grumbles the longer he stares at a certain entry; a delicately iced fruit cake with glazed cherries and crystalised grapes "...hurry up and eat your meal and close the book already."
[Liyue - East Asia - China and Mongolia(Chasm)] Zhongli
Zhongli takes his time reading through everything both about the nations that he feels hold similarities to his history of being among the humans of Liyue. He's seen their [and in a way his own] culture has developed and appreciate every single aspect of it
He's spending all his free time carefully pondering over the myths and legends first. finding records of Qilin and Dragons quickly and talking to you about how many of them aren't accurate to his species. then pausing when you remind him of the lack of elemental magic on Earth and that the records were not made with those differences in mind. he perks up and makes another note; "potentially a lineage of elementally deficient sub-species? could they have development to exist purely on physical matter instead?"
you dont have the heart to inform him they may be fictional - but after being brought to Teyvat yourself, you're hesitant to voice it due to just not knowing now
It sends you both down a rabbithole of research, dates set up so the two of you can read through books and connecting the various bosses, creatures, and even plants to ones you can find on Earth to those in Teyvat
“These are very detailed documents Baobei” he gushes softly, flipping through the pages of a book you'd scoured for him after hed made a comment about apothecaries and if you still had any around your previous home
“the languages are even oddly similar” he drags over his note book, comparing the two with a smile “I’m glad to know we have somewhat of a link between us, across worlds”
“Really?” You question
“It means my courting methods won't come as a surprise” his finger slides over an excerpt from your book detailing a natural stimulant he recognises being identical to one he'd used himself even though the names differ with slight variants “and you seem to have an interest with them. seeing as you've bookmarked this particular page”
you snort at his claims, "or i just really like making sure my fics' are semi-accurate"
"You mean the ones you wrote about me?"
you crack, a light blush spreading onto your cheeks, you press your palm to his ganged sly grin "hush."
Kokomi, Gorou, and Dottore[Beta] [Inazuma - Japan, Enkanomiya - Greece]
Kokomi and Gorou find the similarities more than interesting and switch to asking about nations that are in similar states to Watatsumi Island, looking for an alternative way of battling the issues they are facing.
Theyre both mystified by the vast switch of the two prominent comparisons being situated from two continents until they look at other examples from other nations [like Khaenri’ah and its Norse influences being located beneath Sumeru with its vast amounts of influence that span dozens of Earth equivalents]
Kokomi takes a specialised interest in comparing her priestess position to priestesses from Earth's own. Reading up on the documented generations, how the traditions differ from past and modern depiction and noting anything she feels she could potentially adopt if only in her private life to help her with doubts or simple tasks [like different tucking techniques or hair styles]
Gorou is wonderstruck by the development in the domestic day to day lives of [war] vets and seeing the aid that certain nations have developed to help in returning them to that domestic atmosphere, he looks into trying to read up on the tactics they use to introduce to Kokomi and his troupes as they come down from the end of their civil war against the shogun
Dottore on the other hand… He's more pertinent about Grecian culture, He's noted obvious influences of most underground nations or civilisations and overlapping cultures within Teyvat in his lifetime for reasons he wont disclose - but he notes how Earth has clearer distinct borders that separate them physically, he wants to dissect the two. That spark from his Akedemia days reigniting in himself as well as a certain segment or two.
He's insistent on the languages and mythos than buildings and the physical arts. having taken an interest in it when he'd first visited Inazuma and subsequently Watatsumi when he first became a harbinger [Adopting what he could translate [the teyvatian equivalent of the greek alphabet] into the naming conventions of the segments]
Dottore is silent as he tails the two of you, arms folded behind his back as he observes the structures and while there was hesitance from Kokomi to allow the Doctor to join the expedition into the sacred lands that not even she had seen with her own eyes yet, Kokomi had allowed the visitation under reasonable trade with the Inazuman Fatui division
You lead the team, Gorou watching Dottore cautiously as he scouts at the back, ears perked up and listening to what could suddenly pop out
"I understand what you mean when you warned us of the changes from the surface," Kokomi murmurs. "These do not look like any buildings I recognise"
"That large building in the middle, especially," Gorou exclaims, "its pulsing gold and blue - its kind of menacing."
"If I recall, that their 'Sun'" Dottore pipes up after staying silent the whole trip, it makes Gorou jump minutely and his shoulders raise defensively
"Correct!" You chirp staring at the structure in the distance. "It.. serves as this areas main mechanism - it doesn't have a good reputation for what it was eventually used as and represents. but I can't deny it's beautiful"
Kokomi breathes out sadly. "I can think of a few things that gollowed a similar fate."
[Nod-Krai being developed as its own and yet- not] Columbina
Columbina doesn't really know what her culture is supposed to be. Sure, she was born into the Frostmoon scions but she viewed the moon as her home. not Teyvat during those days resulting in her not connecting too well with it
It's only recently that she sees things differently, but by now, she feels like she's lost much of those foundational parts of it.
so being introduced to your map of over a hundred different cultures will make her uncomfortable with the realisation she may be in a bit over her head with a few things
She'll take the time asking her new friends from Nod-Krai about their experiences and culture to try to find where she fits
it will take awhile for you to convince her of anything relating to the topic whether it's you assuring her she doesn't need to search if she doesn't feel like it or on the opposite end of that and insisting something does fit.
let her do her exploration, and she'll come to an answer herself sometime down the line
[Still learning about Nod-Krai and its RL comparisons]
[Snezhnaya - Eastern Europe - Russia] Pantalone
“Curious about the transit, my dear?” Feofan sits up as the two of you sit warm in a private cabin, the train trudging along the rails smoothly. He flicks the butt of his cigarette into his tray before sitting up to offer it over to you, turning his head to blow out the smoke
“Residing in Snezhnaya for the better part of my life i can say it's far more modern and in a similar state to what I've seen in the reports written of your old world.” he smiles when you take the offer, dull hazy purple eyes sticking on you when you take a drag “the culture here is different to that of my birth place i admit, and yet i would still say the same with the supposed inspirations your world posses”
[Still learning about Snezhnaya and its RL comparisons]
[Dragonspine - ] Nicole, Albedo, and Durin
Durin shivers, arms wrapped around himself as his temperature slowly but surely dropping, He buries himself into your side with a pinched but wide-eyed expression toward Nicole and Albedo, who don't share his sentiments. Nocole is smiling merrily as she makes her way out front with an outfit befitting of the snow storm ahead dancing with the Seelie who litter the pathway up the summit.
“Aunt Nicole!” Durin calls out “Please wait up for us!”
“leave her be” Albedo waves his hands “we'll catch up with her eventually.”
you lean on Durin's shoulder reassuringly “this is an experiment to see the extent of her abilities. So far, this is the only location on Teyvat they don’t work”
The three don't have any integral connection to the cultures [that they outwardly claim] and are hesitant to look for what they consider ‘similarities’ for one reason or another
Nicole, being a wanderer of Teyvat and planets beyond the stars on occasion because of Alice's insistence, doesn't have any attachment to any one nation as none really are her birth place/where she was created. Celestia, on the other hand… fallen from grace she cant really say
but she views the nations of Teyvat with equal Love, intent on giving the humans and their culture more than just a grief glance over and fully intending on doing her best to interact and employing many styles you present into her sculptures
Albedo has more of a curiosity towards both Khaenri’ah and Mondstadt and appreciates his connections to both cultures, but travelling as Gold's student for most of his life, he sees himself as an impartial wanderer
He's based on Khaenri’an features but lives as a mondt citizen, so seeing the influences reflected makes him burst with interest that he can only describe as detrimental to his current workload
Durin has the most insecurity with this. He doesn't know if he's supposed to or rather if he is allowed to feel that connection
There's the situation with Dragonspine Durin, Mondstadt as his adopted home, Fontaine with its aesthetic inspiration in his ‘character design’ and with Simulanka as a whole - adding another world where he's supposedly drawn inspiration from will have him go through another bout of identity confusion.
[This is based on the new evidence supporting that Dragonspine isn't considered apart of Teyvat, I've had inkling of that early on with Albedo willingly setting up shop there, the whole Durin things (pre-Simulank then post adding even more) and that the Liyuen and Mondt compasses never worked there. I didn't manage to get Nicole myself, so im going through Wiki and theory accounts i follow]
Aether and Lumine would ask for similar reasons, They want to know if they've been to your world before and the best way to find out is to learn what nations exist - they're the most normal out of everyone in response to the info dump
Whether or not they've been to earth themselves, there's no doubt they haven't at least heard of it and it would finally click to them why the things you say or reference are just barely there in the back of their minds
“No…” Aether gasps “You're from there?!”
he taps adamantly at the whiteboard you'd summoned for the group. He'd listened intently throughout the whole performance, a build up of him grasping at straws trying to recognise just one of the nations you'd mentioned
“Traveller, have you heard of it before?” Paimon asks curiously, floating up to look at the map you produce, squinting at the almost nonexistent squiggles in between larger blocks of land. "There's so many nations here. They must be so small”
“small?” You turn to see what she's looking at and laugh “oh! no, Earth's actually fairly large”
She looks over, confused, flying over to Aether to grab out her own map of Teyvat to compare them. by now, a few others have gotten up to view the two in earnest curiosity “see! here!”
She unfolds her map, a handmade sketch she had crafted herself
“Your nations are tiny!” she flies back to hover beside you to show it off
“our maps are on two different scales” you smile, leaning over to see her notes
“Well I know mine isn't complete” she protests softly “not having travelled to Snezhnaya yet, but it still has most of Teyvat mapped! yours is complete”
you laugh at her adamance and breathe a sigh when Mika approaches
“Do you think I could keep a copy?” He asks excitedly, “The Topography depicted in the maps you've provided are extremely detailed, I want to go through and transcribe the key and have it documented in the Favonius Library!”
“It would be good to have a copy at the Akedemia as well” Nahida adds
“I may have another Atlas lying around somewhere” you say, thinking back to the stash of stolen books on your bookshelves back at the manor “Maybe even a globe…”
“Now hold on” Paimon pushes through “what do you mean different scales? How big is the Earth then?”
“-and what do you mean by globe?” You turn to see Durin approach with a soft hesitation, fidgeting with his cuffs. still becoming used to his new human body
“The earth is a globe- sphere, sorry.” you open up the screen system and swipe through to get to the teapot furniture tab, typing in and somehow managing to find a model of earth. you drag it out and present it
“Tada!” Placing it down, you adjust the globe to point out the different nations you'd just shown them “This is a close enough representation of what it looks like scaled wayyy down”
“So your home is a ball?” Durin says, fascinated “How do you not fall off?”
you stare at him for a moment
“I'm sorry, what?”
“like…” he points at the side of the globe “The people that live here- are the buildings horizontal or crevices in the earth's side? then here at the bottom, is the architecture built in a hanging position?”
Kaveh beams “Oh! that would be so interesting to see!”
your eyes shift between their expectant looks and the globe and falter “I'm… so confused. What are you guys talking about.”
Zhongli chuckles as he takes in your expression, leaning down to whisper into your ear “I believe the residents of Teyvat have never seen what their world looks like from an outsiders perspective”
you frown and stare at him. he shakes his head and lays his hands-
“Flat?!” Your head snaps to the group “you think Teyvat is flat?!”
They look a little startled at the shout, Durin himself looks a little embarrassed
“Uhm, yes?” he squeaks out, scratching at his cheek nervously
“you-” you point at him “you’re fine - you come from a Storybook, which is… objectively a flat planet, so you're safe”
you turn to Kaveh however “You have less of an excuse! you're from the Akedemia!”
he throws his hands up “I’m Kshahrewar, not Rtawahist. We have very different focuses!”
your face screws up “thin ice!”
“Now there's no need to yell” Mika laughs nervously
“Im just very surprised.” You mutter backing down
“so, theoretically” Kaveh starts “If Teyvat was indeed circular in circumference, how exactly would we be standing perpendicular?”
“gravity.” You say flatly
“yes i know what gravity is.” he hisses
“I now no longer think you do” you utter doubtfully “what do you think it is.”
he pouts and crosses his arms “It's the elemental connection between Tevyat's surface and the sky, obviously.”
“obviously” you respond snarkily in the same tone he gives, making him snort in amusement before the information sinks in and starts to look confused yourself
“no…” you say scandalised, staring back at the globe and twirling it, showing them the motion “so your definition of gravity is based on the elements?”
“He’s right.” Nahida says with a chirp “Every nation has a different level of elemental density, which affects the mass of certain areas more than others”
“but…”
“That's why we have so many floating islands around!” Durin piles up “Albedo taught me that the other week! we were doing plunging attacks, and he explained that my output of pyro increases the higher i go in order to create an outward explosion”
you stare at them blankly
“Reader?” Durin reaches out carefully
“Alien Planet.” You whisper to yourself “alien concepts.”
“Ah, now my dear, I think that's quite rude - you're the one who's alien” you turn to glare at Dottore
“wow, thanks” you say dryly.
Dottore shrugs “but in this context, I'm more inclined to follow along your belief that this world is spherical in nature and that not all that is known is what it seems.”
“As much as I don't want to agree with him” Mika adds “They do come from outside of Teyvat, as far as we know there could be other factors that contribute to the known laws of space”
Dottore grins “oh look, one of the bard's feathers has a brain.”
“thanks?”
“I think you're just sucking up to them” Kaveh protests, getting between you and Dottore. “and it is not that we're denying their theory. It's just that there could be plausible differences in our foundational sciences”
“‘theory’?” his mask raises as he brushes the blonde off “hah! and what proof do you have for yours?”
Kaveh splutters “years of research! While it's not my specialty, there are decades' worth of cross darshan studies that support the current laws of space.”
“So the same laws created by the shades of our opposition?” Dottore sneers almost amused by the drop in their expressions “laws based on a belief system created in order to depict our beloved in a false light? that research?”
“I- uh” flustered Kaveh steps back
“Tell me ‘Light of Kshahrewar’, does your research explain how utterly dull you are, or is that just your default state?”
“Dottore.” Nahida warns, eyes closed as she smiles up at him. It's not hard to feel the threat laced in her stance “Take a step away from my friend.”
without noticing Dottore and Kaveh stand directly in front of each other, the former towering over the blonde with a menacing grin painted on his face. He doesn't budge
“Dottore.” You say instead, he tilts his mask in acknowledgement and steps away
“What a creep.” Paimon shivers, peeking over your shoulder to watch him leave
“hes’ a bit mean” Mika mutters
“a bit?” Kaveh looks at him “you don't know the half of it.”
you all focus back on the topic at hand, pointing out the different nations and trying to explain to the best of your ability how gravity works on Earth. You figured they didn't have an Albert Einstein or Newton to formulate these ideas, and you didn't exactly have the magical forces of the elements on Earth. There's so much common knowledge that has become obtuse in Teyvat or is just wrong. Thankfully, you've only fumbled in front of them and not some random civilian while exploring. so far, at least.
“it still doesn't explain how small these places are” Paimon whines, gaining your attention once more “can you just tell me?”
“well, So far whats mapped out is like-” you ponder over the numbers, trying to think back to the random Genshin trivia Tiktoks and all their inaccuracies “well Teyvat isn't actually what the planets called, its just what the continent is named…”
“and?”
“and to give context.” You point to Earth “theres 7 continents here.” you pop the lid off of whiteboard marker and section them off “so even if you scale up any of the singular continents to fit the same scale of your map, that size difference would be more accurate in terms of determining a comparative replication of a 1 to 1”
Paimon gapes at your words “so you're telling me this-” she points to australia “is technically the whole size of Teyvat?!”
“What's mapped? yes.” You nod “Anything past the dead sea is unknown, so i couldn't tell you how far that goes”
you purse your lips in thought “maybe Alice could tell us?”
Durin shakes his head “Auntie Alice is busy at the border, she hasn't been back for a few weeks at least."

[30 min sketch] This is a kind reminder that the Readers' high court is a Polycule rather than a harem, some members are not exclusive to just the court or to just Reader <3
Navia grins as she wades through the watery torrent, not struggling against the current as she stares into the domains crevice. Glancing up, she watches as your seelie floats in front of her, a kamera click follows
[Them being self-aware while you're playing. Today's Team; Navia, Columbina, Ineffa, and Baizhu vs The All consuming Narwhal]
Cw. SFW. Fourth wall breaks, use of canon Voicelines. Crack taken semi-serious, Self Aware/SAGAU
"Ahoy!" Navia waves, a giant grin on her face as Columbina, Ineffa, and Baizhu make their way over the hill to the beach where she resides
"Greetings, Miss Navia." Ineffe tips her head "thank you for meeting us here
"Oh, you're fine! Im more than happy to help with the situation at hand" she brushes off her concerns
she wades into the shallows, calling out from over her shoulder "off we go!"
when she hears no response, she turns to see the three standing at the shore who stare at her "well friends?"
"The domain..." Baizhu speaks up "it's..."
"Under the ocean?" she grins. "The entrance is a fair way down. If you want to reach the narwhal, this is the only way"
Columbina is the first to take a step forward. The sheer material becomes soaked and spreads out around her, making her look like a jellyfish as she dunks herself in, Ineffa follows suit while she smoothens out her clothes on her upperhalf
"will you not malfuction Ineffa?" Columbina asks, already floating and having to paddle to keep her head out
"Aino built me using waterproof blubberbeast sealent," she awnsers, but unlike the other two, she does not begin to float, staying level to the wet sand
"Miss Navia, is the domain located along the ocean floor?"
"It's a raised platform, but you should be able to reach it." Navia reassures her. Ineffa nods and continues, sinking beneath the ocean
Columbina smiles. "Sandrone didn't like swimming. I'm glad Ineffa is willing to do it"
"Could it be because she too, would sink?" Baizhu says from the bank "Last i was aware she had exposed gears."
"She didn't like the feeling of sand in her gears, actually. water wasnt her issue" she awnsers before diving below to join her
"Come on, doctor, you've read about Fontainian waters, havent you? you'll be fine!"
Baizhu sighs, muttering 'the things I do for you' under his breath before stepping into the ocean, immediately shivering at the temperature drop. Changsheng hisses in protest, tucking herself further in his clothes
Baizhu winces when his head dips under the ocean, his glasses floating away from his face, and he mentally thanks the fact he has them attached to himself by a string
he struggles at first, a spike of fear entering his chest when he breathes in the water to get used to the unnatural way Fontaine operates, no water rushes him, but breathing feels heavy
he cant speak, but he can breathe.
he regroups with the others looking miserable. thankfully, Navia leads them straight to the circular sealed domain and waves her hands
he squints at the motions, flickering between her hands and her face. when she finishes and smiles, he shrugs alongside Columbina, who shakes her head and makes an X with her arms
"She is saying we have arrived" all three turn to look at Ineffa who looks back blankly "...I do not need to breathe, nor do i need my mouth to speak" as if to prove her point, her mouth stays shut, a little purple light flashing along her neck "I will translate for you, miss Navia"
she grins, giving her a thumbs up, then proceeds to sign in quick succession
"she says 'During the battle, leave the knight to me, you need pneuma or ouisa to engage it properly, otherwise attack the narwhal with all you've got, we need to make it angry and provoke it to eat us'"
Baizhu stares at Navia in disbelief
"'Its perfectly safe'" Ineffa reiterates "...Miss Navia, while this is a domain - im doubtful being eaten is a positive, infact im inclined to beleive its counter productive"
"'The knight resides within its... belly'" the three of them [though in Columbinas case its debatable] stare flat at her
Navia rolls her eyes and swims to the entrance, dipping her hand into the squishy cover over the domain
Your breathing had calmed, migraine subsided, leaving a dull ache in its wake. sitting up but still bundled beneath a wad of blankets, you squint down at the screen and sigh. the breeze hadn't left your side. If anything, it only got stronger as time went on.
leaning up against the wall, you sit and watch them battle.
"Haha!" Navia twirls in the air, rolling off the back of the narwhal as it drops limp itself, the blast from her last shot gun blast flinging her backward with the speed of light.
Baizhu watches the sigh with an exasperated expression before sending changsheng out and then pooling his elemental attack to spawn a frew bloom cores
"Ineffa, send Birgitta-"
"Already on it, Doctor!" He's surrounded by a thin electro shield as birgitta brushes against the bloom cores
he huffs as he kicks them with minimal effort to bounce against the beast stomach and nestles beneath its fin
"Go," he hisses softly at the small mechincal being, nudging it away from the explosion site "back to Ineffa, now, shoo."
it beeps and slowly hovers away, a broom icon appearing on its screen
"now this is when you can use your burst or apply hydro" Ineffa coaches Columbina from afar, the shorter nods
"-however in this case, since there's a decreased hydro leyline disorder present in this domain, we wouldnt want either" Columbina hums at her words "Really we should have brought someone else or a hydro healer but due to special circumstances-"
"you need someone who can communicate with the player"
Ineffa nods back "Our guide seems to only be able to fully communicate with the divine."
Columbina turns to the Narwhal, "Do you think this will work?"
"we received word from the Traveller that the Narwhal is from off world." she brings up her arm, a panel opening to show an electro display "our aim is to farm a certain organ from it, and if we dont, we repeat the process each week until we do"
they both watch Baizhu speed walk toward them, Changsheng back on his shoulders and Birgitta at his side just as the see Navia land on the domains crystalised surface, kneel and cock her shotgun at the stockpile of wet, electro addled dendro blooms, a crescent moon on her back curtsey of Columbina, and fires.
you wince as the screen shutters, the sound of Navias gun ripping into your devices speakers making it crackle. you look worriedly at the screen as the screen freezes on the wide grin Navia has, numbers obscuring the background
it glitches
then turns off.
you sit in silence for a moment, leaning toward the device "...hello?"
you jump back with newfound energy and screech when your device jumps from its current stand. and rattles violently. you scramble back as it floats for a moment. the dodoco device you held onto earlier rattles too and bounces it wat back from where it came from before promptly merging.
a string coils out from the screen and attatches itself to the charging port. the screen comes back to life to show a extrem close up of Columbinas face
"Hello!" she greets cheerfully. moving back from the kamera[?] she looks over her shoulder and zves to someone off screen.
you grab your game [screen? controls?] You could really tell what it was anymore. the device you had originally was destroyed, screen and all, and what's left behind is this holographic one with the pieces of the Dodoco Communication device burned into its core
three other faces appear squished together as they all try to take ahold of the device
Scraps from the original draft or abandoned excerpts. to the person who sent me the animaniacs ask, i got carried away thinking of Headcanons, it's coming soon!
I groan as I stumble to the ground, legs shaking while Aether comes up behind me, landing with more grace, knees buckling as I sit on the stone pavement. Amber and paimon are yelling, getting closer as they rush to meet up with the two of us
“Stormterror… is attacking Mondstat itself!” Amber exclaims. terrified at the sight of the retreating dragon “Kaeya, Traveller, you’ve come at the right time. We must-”
I jump at the sudden clapping behind me, only just registering who it must’ve been
“Hold on, Amber.” The Blue haired man says smoothly, his unobstructed eye sweeping over Aether and I “Are you perhaps forgetting to introduce us?”
I grumble to myself as i realise that Amber had not been referring to me, but rather the man behind us
“Oh… right.” Amber seems to realise, turning to us first “This is Kaeya, our cavalry captain!”
“These three are travellers from afar; The Traveller, The Reader and Paimon”
Kaeya seems to narrow his eyes further as he scrutinises us and our appearance, much to my own discomfort. Stumbling while getting up with the help of Aether, i listen as Amber briefly clues Kaeya in on how we came to be here in the city
“I see.” He taps his eye patch, a humorous lilt to his tone “Welcome to Mondstat- though you haven't arrived at the best of times, I'm afraid”
“I understand the anguish of being separated from family.” He places his hand on his chest next, lowering his head as if in condolences even as his eye keeps steady on us “and I'm not really sure why you’re looking for the Anemo God…”
“But everyone has their secrets, right?”
The atmosphere feels tense as he says those words, the conversation a lot heavier than it’d ever been behind a screen. A stark reminder for myself that this was actually happening.
“Haha, relax! I won't press you for more” he chirps, attitude switching back to his original tune
“First and foremost, on behalf of the Knights of Favonius, I would like to extend our thanks to you for your help just now” He says with a grin, leaning back and placing his hands on his hips
“Well, we couldn't just leave the situation to fester” I hear Aether say, and I nod
“Your fight to defend the city against the dragon just now was witnessed by no small number of citizens” He muses “The Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius is also very interested in meeting you, and formally invites you three to the headquarters”
I look to Aether first and await for his next move before he looks over his shoulder at me and gives a small nod
“Lead the way” I say to Kaeya, turning back and eyeing the man myself
Amber instead takes the lead, Aether falling into step with her in front and Paimon beside him, chatting away to the brunette
Which meant i was left with -
“So, Travellers from afar, yes?” Kaeya pipes up, earning my attention “The three of you must’ve come from distant lands, i've never seen garbs as…”
He looks me up and down
“-Unique as yours” A noise leaves my throat, a choked laugh
I probably shouldn't laugh, but having my jumper and shorts being described as unique was hardly something I expected.
“Never been to Natlan?” I ask amused
“Cant say I have, are you Natlanese?” He questions
“Or something” I shrug, his head tilts, and his smile gets sharper
“Hmm” he stays quiet as we walk, eyes kept on me while I keep my gaze on Aether
“You all seem rather close. How long have the 3 of you been travelling together?”
I wanna see what happens if I bite neuvillette's horns(not aggressively just gently, like a lil nibble....) Or just suck on em like a lollipop. The blue looks so edible I can't control myself.....he looks so scrumptious 🤤 yknow what they say just cause the wrapper is wrinkled don't mean the candy ain't sweet.✌
Sweet Blue Raspberry Bath [Short 0.5k] [MDNI]
Cw. Neuvillette enjoying being lavished with affection to his horns/antenna while they bathe, cuts off before smut, but this is not subtle, especially in the second banner at the end. Gn Reader.
A Suggestive Neuvillette Drabble - That sentence is definitely making it rounds :] but i do agree, couldn't decide whether to do a drawing or a drabble, so have both Anon <3 [Fontaine] [NSFW]
Nicknames - Mon Coeur/Dear for you, My Love for Neuvillette.
“My love?” You call out into the house, placing down your bag and coat to wander further into your quaint modest home. It's rare you're the one back last, and it's even rarer not to see him waiting for you in the front room.
However, it's not hard to find him, knowing the dragon and his affinity for water, in the instance he isn't in the two places you'd expect, you knew where to head to next.
padding into his personal quarters, a space he could call his own aquarium. There, he rested, reclined on his front in the pool, eyes closed and looking to be in bliss as the water lapped at his pale skin. steam rolling over the ceramic edges and the calming smell of lavender permeating the room from within.
you come up quietly to the edge, leaning into his shoulder and pecking his cheek in greeting
Neuvillette perks up tiredly, pressing his cheek into the soft affection
“Welcome home” he rasps out, lifting slightly out of the water to reach for you, nuzzling into your neck “will you join me, mon coeur?”
He presses at your shoulder and helps you undress, hooking his palm beneath your legs and pulling you into his pool to sit beside him
you hiss at the heat and steam that rises from the surface and relax atop of his lap, hugging each other close. Time seems to pass by slowly, but it plays in both of your favour, letting your busy day wash away and a familiar heat pool in your chest, sinking to your core
At this close proximity, it's hard to ignore his horns like this. The semi-soft appendages peek out from his hair. It looked like forbidden candy shimmering in the lowlight, one that you frequently take advantage of admittedly.
“Mn-” he shifts in place, his eyes narrow and flicker over to where you're reaching for with an inappropriate intention from your usual fidgeting, your lips pressed to his crown, teething at the base of his horns. He grabs your hips and squeezes gently.
“Dear…” he warns without any prevalent objection
Neuvillette observes your cheeky expression, a sly smile creeping onto your face at his half-hearted verbal protest
“Can I not love on you?” To emphasise your point, you lift the end of his antenna, arguably the most sensitive part of his exposed nature. His eyelashes flutter, his brow pinching when he tries to withhold a moan to no avail.
he huffs when you concede the assault with a giddy little giggle, licking your lips deviously, a blush dusting over his cheeks, ears and shoulders the further he feels you lazily teethe along the length in a targeted and pointed attack to tease him without any gratifying affinity for release on his end
“You're insufferable” he mutters, giving in, shoving his horns directly in your field of vision, making you happily grab at the soft tips again and feeling the antenna tremble in your hold. he moans quietly, freely now, melting at the soothing massaging motions you take immense pleasure in doing. "Don't stop - ah- please."
"Mon coeur, you're not intending to end there, are you?" he pleads, propping himself up on the edge to look over his shoulder at you, a needly smouldering look painted on his face

A close friend of mine in the real world often does the randomest of things, and I in turn match it - Heres some of the Fanart the Rat has done for me and the fic with Rats' permission :)
Rat does not play Genshin [well, they have once 3 years ago] and does not wish to be perceived other than as Rat
The Dottores! - We had a yap session when i realised my clean art style was starting to adopt some of Rats' drawing traits [mainly the eyes], and so Rat wanted to do a redraw to see the differences
And an oldie compared to the above but the Rat drew me in the hit game Genpshit too [Pre-Natlan] around about when i first started to write the fic [Albeit secretly at that time, I did not have the confidence in it yet]
Scraps from the original draft or abandoned excerpts - this has been rewritten for a chapter, but i keep all of the first drafts, too, in case.
“Heh, thanks, Katheryne.” I grin accepting each bag she hands over, making them disappear into storage one after the other
“It is my pleasure, these are simply just rewards for your efforts in achieving successful missions” she smiles, a practised bow as she handed me the final satchel
I lift my sleeve, dusting over the numbers that blink and continue ticking upward, the giddy feeling of seeing the primogems accumulate.
“By the way, Katheryne.” I summon a gem to sit between my fingers “these, what are they used for exactly?”
“These crystals are used in prayer sermons, as offerings to the gods. Apart from that, they are not used for anything else of importance.” She says
“How fun” I mutter “can they be bought?”
Katherine Shakes her head “no, they only form when one displays pure intent and represents an attribute of the seven.”
I look at her blankly “attributes?”
She sighs “displaying irrefutable wisdom, an act of freedom or enacting justice among others”
“gotcha’” I wince “and people give them in commissions? As an attribute to contracts?”
“indeed.” Katherine smiles “is there anything else I can help you with?”
Todays Update - Above include the first time drawing the four; Columbina, Aria, Canon, and Sonnet as a warm-up! Below is the very first draftings of Nibelung not based on anything specific - they were mostly blank prototypes with some dragon features i knew i wanted to include, any furture design will have some components but for now Nibelung will also stay a blank anon base as depicted in the Moon sisters and Nibelung art i did a few months ago until i finish it, unexpectedly the Heavenly Principles came first.
Todays update - January sketches of Al-haitham, Kaveh, and Nahida from the fic! Recently, I've been watching a lot of CyYu [Cyno's EN VA] alongside the Tres Leches crew [Al-haitham EN VA and Kaveh EN VA] - their newest Uno Vod was hilarious with the addition of Flins' EN VA, so i will be doing something based on that
And the Ask Box rules have been updated! [Here] Do put inquiries in the comments there if something sounds confusing or not clarified enough, It is open
It's for the "Mmm Women..." WIP's - It got 100 votes, so I'll do proper banners for them since they'll be individual oneshots. the more developed 2 below the split. oh, and Neuvillette is there, too. He's getting his own fic... eventually.
Gives me an excuse to draw more women as i fill up my backlog

[From the stars and beyond Masterlist] [The Fic Masterlist]
Ft. The Heavenly Principles, Aria, Sonnet, Cannon, and Nibelung Mentioned - Asmoday, Istaroth, Ronova, and Naberius.
Content warning - Dubious [Yandere-like] Heavenly Principles, Character Death, Violence, Mention of the Funerary War, manipulation, propoganda, Are they evil? Are they good?, Hero/Saviour Complex, Religious imagery, Person of power abuses position for themselves.
It will eventually accumulate into a toxic, heavy tensioned, doomed, and most definitely, not endgame situation. Just like the Dragon Sovereigns x Reader, this is to add more background of early Teyvat. Probably wont make sense without fic context
[Heavenly Principles x Creator!Reader] Headcanons, Art and Snippets ahead [Including a design for HP]
The Creators Opposition, Teyvats Usurper - The Heavenly Principles.
Headcanons forged from the scraps from canon and SAGAU fanon. Design will be updated when the Heavenly Principles official design releases
The General Headcanons
For the Heavenly Principles, i will be using They/them to refer to them since that is how the game refers to them so far.
However, it is still debatable whether or not they are an Aeon level type of God. For now, I won't use the capatalised THEY/THEM that is used when Reader, Aether, or Lumine refer to the Gods from outside of Teyvat.
The Heavenly Principles name will be shortened to 'HP' or simply as 'Celestia' in future chapters
Details on the design above are at the bottom with the reference images
Following the Timeline to Present
Eventual Obsession Hate/Hate Relationship
It starts as a one-sided infatuation, idolisation of the remnants of a long gone Aeon of legend, hearing about your legacy as the orginator of Teyvat.
coming to Teyvat and becoming its new God had been thrilling, the creatures below all looking up to them in abstract fear and disdain.
Their form is one of a dying star, a mere twinkle in comparison to the black hole that you encaptured.
Then, hearing of the purpose of Teyvat and what it had been created for, they brought forth the human race, introducing the emerging and endangered people onto the land like it was a daycare drop off
The accidental desaturation of light was not intended. They could feel the planet slowly lose its connection to you as your energy dispersed and waned.
The humans they introduced began pollution the planet with their presence alone
But there were a few sources of renewable light to balance the effect they had brought forth
it was enough to keep the peace.
Meeting with the Moon sisters, kin of your lineage was... memorable. it was a short battle. the three women easily overpowered by their abilities and their shades.
"What-" Canon said shakily, glaring up at the five towering figures "what do you want from us?"
Aria was unconscious, and Sonnet... Canon gulped seeing the cruel state her sister was in
The Heavenly Principles looked down emotionless, face unmoving but their eyes staring ominously
"Information." their voice boomed into her head, Canon cried out at the noise and flinching back. The Heavenly Principles leaned down, grabbing the woman by her neck and having her dangle in the air. she kicks her legs out in protest, scratching at the hand and arms, but it does nothing. They have no soft flesh, no skin - just a dense, tough layer of pearlescent cartilage.
"-Tell me about the Dragon King." she chokes as the hand squeezes tighter. "Tell me of the one who created this planet."
The Heavenly Principles had the three sisters on a tight leash after that first transgression. they couldn't bear to have you angered too much should you return to Teyvat in your next lifetime.
The Heavenly Principles were satisfied with what they had learnt - that while, yes, you were technically dead. your soul had gone off elsewhere to reincarnate in an unending cycle of life and death across time and space
They laughed at the irony
Sending the shades across the planet to establish the boarders, closing off the humans from wandering too far into the dragons nests, dubbing the oceans cut off point as the dead sea. erecting impassable snowstorms, volcanic trenches, a field of tornadoes, and electrified barens to keep everyone within their sight.
Like a terrarium, yes. Their perfect little sandbox. something they fully believed you'd agree with.
They had the shades dig up any and all information about you from the humans and creatures that roamed the planet.
they all coveted you even as they had tried to take over as the main belief system. you were just that influencial.
This is where things take a turn in their attatchment for you. it becomes more twisted and personal.
They held information about you that the common people of the lands didn't. They were close to your kin, and they held your creation in the palms of their hands. all they needed now was for you to return. so they pulled the stars from the sky, created the firmament, and concentrated the glittering stars into wishes
They... lost their 50/50.
Nibelung returns to Teyvat.
War was the only thing they could think of as response to his aggressive front
He was not you. He was not the Dragon King they wanted.
The Funerary War felt trivial.
Sure, many had died, fallen by their hand or his- they couldn't tell. all they knew was that Nibelung had taken your [his] kin and had them executed [sealed] for colluding with them
The shades had all voiced their pain as the two moons shattered, the third flung out of orbit, and the sky sealed with a fake put in its place
Then it came down to his death
The Heavenly principles stood vigilant atop of the beastly man. Over the years of their battle, he'd been wittled down bit by bit. a new order had been established, and the rules were to be upheld. the slow transition that he and many others had been forced to partake in for going against them granted them such pleasures untold
"Do you like your new body?" They taunted "It is nice, no?"
Nibelung spits at them, it doesnt fly far from his position on the ground, and he growls as they press down harder with their hoof into his chest.
being ageless was a blessing. It granted them the ability to watch as he converted into a human against his will, a curse that had affected the other dragons too, some more than others
"You-" Nibelung coughs, blood spurting from his mouth and onto the marbled hoof, gold falling between the cracks "You won't win"
"Hah." they laugh humourlessly, "I already have."
"They will return one day." he spits "And you will not be welcomed with open arms- they will reject your rule, they will know your cruelty"
"What cruelty?" they say. "Teyvat is a sanctuary. These humans were lost, dying. is it not right to open that sanctuary to those in need? is that not your purpose!"
they stamp their foot in his chest again inflicting more pain
"I am their saviour. Who are you to judge me?" they hiss, crouching down to cup the mans human face, "you left. and I took your place. you have no reason to be here, nor should you have come back"
"You brought poison!" he counters. "The humans have no light! they drain the planet like useless sponges!"
"and so do you." their grip on his face tightens. "You willingly brought The Abyss here. nothing can live in its presence -"
"A lie!" he thrashes around, trying to get free. "There are worlds where they flourish with it"
"The humans will die"
"But we won't." his eyes flash dangerously "we can survive it"
"You're infected, Lord Nibelung." they drop his face and lean away in disgust as his eyes begin leaking black. "You have succumed to it, allow me to cleanse you of such filth"
he hacks up more blood. This time, the ink is vomited up alongside the gold. "You know nothing of purification. you are not a real star like them"
The Heavenly Principles hold out their hand, allowing a large blade to fall into their palms to which they raise high, a shadow falling over his face and creating a ring behind their figure, a halo illuminating the fear on his face
"There are other ways to cleanse the earth."
The war was over, but Teyvat had fallen into a state of disarray. which left them no choice but to put all their faith into its collective trust in you
Instead of having the people fall see them as their God, they would simply make you infalliable.
Calling you the Creator was almost too easy
changing the remaining nations' perspective of them and their shades had been hilariously simple whennit came to the humans since they lived such short lives and held far less individuality, they were dependant on the Gods and what they could provide.
The Fae and Dragons were complicated. but they, as well as any elemental creature with a brain, had learnt from the events of the funeary war to not be so vocal with their protests
if they could win with just the army of angels, the shades, and the Heavenly Principles - the different clans dreaded the devestation they could now commit with the humans on their side
the Heavenly Principles had so brazenly taken their leaders and distorted their images
painting Nibelung as filth, a curse, and the eventual end of Teyvat; an eminator of 'Destruction'
and turning you into a mysterious martyr, a figure to worship, someone to praise; 'The Creator'
The creation of the thrones had come in quick succession. funnelling the humans devout credence to fuel their own abilities the five spend the next centuries creating an even bigger lie, snuffing out any insignificant flames that attempt to riot or reveal their deceptions
They feel no regret in the death of the moon sisters or the death of Nibelung by their own hands
They had hoped that when you return that, you will see their efforts in creating a perfect world
And how i made the design for them :] There are many more Headcanons I've got stored for The Heavenly Principles across the ages - Adjustments will be made if we eventually see them too! but this is how they will be depicted with the SAGAU Fic
And to the usual few who are also theorycrafters of genshin - how do y'all view The Heavenly Principles? as something more abstract? more human? The Phainon is Phanes theory [That guy from Honkai - i only know Sunday and Aeons]
Previous Characterisation theorycrafting [Brought over from Here]
They knew about you and that you created Teyvat, but no matter what they did, they couldn't erase you from irminsul without also fully erasing Teyvats foundation
so they begrudgingly left your legacy alone and worked on spreading their own ideals to no promising avail
so they hitched the plan to create the 'Creator' epithet for you and masquerade themselves as your prophets/emissaries
taking different well-known parts of your existence; the screen system, your court of Dragon Sovereigns, your ability to create the world around you, and remixed them for their own purposes
A prominent part being the rules developed for the akedemiya, coming from the Heavenly Principles and their shades to ensure the humans follow them obediently
Interfering with human evolution
dictated by Asmoday and her Keepers presiding over the Temple of space as from the quote from Melanta - 'This place is only to preserve. All innovation, all evolution, is forbidden here' and explains why Melanta kept on rejecting or exiling different residents like maukie/Escher [Yes, the actual Escher that Dottore disguised himself as when he dissapeared from the Scaramouche backstory quest. he's now roaming the world again so im sure thats going to pop up and fuck with wanderer.]
Tampering with life and death
Neberius and Ronovas' addition, more so Ronova after being reprimanded for her love for humanity and interferences seen within Natlan and Khaenri’ah. Naberius [and now additionally Rhinesdottir] having becoming mixed. their abilities being seen with their curses [Curse of Immortality from Ronova for pure blooded Khaenri’ans and Curse of Wilderness from Naberius for humans who defy their laws]
Delving beyond the universe
Made bc of the remaining outlanders trapped in Teyvat [like Sovereigns, Skirk, Zhongli, Miliastra Wonderland twins, Hexenzirkle, etc] keep popping up and disrupting their order
Investigating the origin of words
Inability to understnad non-Teyvat words and phrases [Aether and Lumine having to learn common Teyvatian from Paimon pre-game start. Wanderers name you give him not being spoken verbally but still exists in a written compacity] in an attempt to keep the world at a manageable level where the remaining abysal presences is kept stable and the lightnlevels match them, neither getting too scaled one way or another [Why the Heavenly Principles and the shades dont do shit to get rid of the abyss' presence nor fully commit to the destruction of dragons]
Revering gods without acts of devotion
To restrict, picking and choosing which gods get favour, being prayed to/worshiped or revering a god and their names has reasonable cause to influence how strong said god becomes [Ventis statement that hes the 'weakest' out of the archons etc.]
Attempting the forbidden and fearing none
Istaroths warning to the humans, telling them to be wary and not tempt fate, her powers relating closely to the trilunar authority over time and being able to plant seeds in the past to fruit in the future [Inazumas sakura tree, Dandelion seeds through time speech Venti gives]
these when looked at with the context of the Heavenly principles presenting them changes the intension alot. they become more threatening
The shades are complicated figure with scraps of lore so they're still being developed - but they're not black and white evil stereotypes [no one is in all depictions]
like in the new quote supplied from Istoria - "Thus with that single body the powers of light and darkness began to contend with one another. And so the primordial guman, bearing both, came to possess both good and evil"
Chibi!mouche when he first joins the Harbingers gets grilled about his tattered clothes and ends up with La Signora and Pantalone playing dress up with the Fatuis new 'Doll' - needless to say Scaramouche was not happy with the nickname
