Venti:

Chiharu: feelings for. he's loved her a long time. nearly fifteen years despite having met her twenty years ago. ever since she found out he was barbatos and she didn't run. she only asked if his favorite wine was still dandelion. sees how much her past and her present weigh on her and does what he can to be by her side in the moment. one day, he wants her to be his and him, hers.

Chixian: her best friend and the one person who keeps pace with her before anyone else. unaware the depth of his feelings and the depths he would go just to keep her by his side. loves braiding flowers into his hair and honestly?... he'll just sit there and let it happen. to him, there is nothing more precious to him then this girl besides the sport he loves so dearly.

Zhongli:

Guizhong/Sienna: lover. he loves her in a way deep and ancient. she has the ability to unmake him and it rattles him to his core. would do anything she asked. loves the time they get to spend together even if its brief. his heart will always be in liyue, as hers will always be in mondstadt. endeavors to not let the past repeat itself with the fact they're expecting.

Maya: 'in-law', mutual respect. the two can have drinks together now at least without sienna needing to be around to keep the peace.

Nathaniel: 'in-law', mutual respect. similar outlook to nathaniel as he has with maya.

others tbd; xiao, ganyu, ningguang, traveler/paimon, others

Xue:

Xiao: beloved husband. to him, she is her partner in survival as much as she loves him as a person. she can exist just fine without him, but prefers not too. loves the person he's become with yuyan's birth five years ago. would do anything he asked of her.

Zhongli: morax, rex lapis. respects him as the lord of the adepti, and perhaps, in a way, a father figure. appreciates his wisdom and appreciates his softness with yuyan. in fact, honestly, it shows in yuyan's name how much she appreciates this man.

Yuyan: her son. this little boy had her heart from the moment she held him. would and has unmade people just to keep him safe. he is her sunshine and all her grace.

Zhengyi: brother figure, fellow adepti. fought alongside him in the archon war. occasionally seeks his advice but normally is left exasperated with him. wishes he'd quit his 'loose ways'.

Other Adepti: vary. has a respect for each of them.

others tbd; ganyu, other adepti

Zhengyi:

Chixian: his student. no one knows where chixian is from, but zhengyi is his mentor and a father figure to the boy. the two have a fun dynamic with chixian often acting as the watery foil to his fiery nature. a lot of slapstick humor.

Guizhong/Sienna: 'his lady'... platonically. he had absolute loyalty to her long, long ago but when she died, he found a new purpose guarding the Guili Plains. with her reincarnation, that feeling still stands. he keeps an eye on her from afar and focuses on what he can protect now instead.

Ione: protectee. that protection now belongs to ione. he watches over her when she passes through liyue's borders and sees guizhong's spirit in her. they havent met, but he can see she senses him at the very least. maybe one day they will.

Zhongli: loyal too. after guizhong's death, morax gave him a purpose in guarding the guili plains, and while the contract is long fulfilled, he still hasnt left his post.

others tbd; adepti characters

Chixian:

Ione: his most precious person. he left everything he knew behind for her on the chance she might not even love him back. he would do it all over again if it meant she smiled. he is the wind at her back and the only one who can catch her no matter how far she runs. values her autonomy but can't help but be a bit possessive.

Zhengyi: mentor, father figure. the one person who vouched and stood by him no matter what. he really, really wishes his mentor wasn't certain ways, but it can't be helped. he might know the burning general better then he knows himself.

Zhongli: respect. he is aware of his status as morax and former geo archon. he knows zhongli is watching him closely, and that to even get here to ione, his energy was siphoned by zhengyi.

Sienna: respect. hes aware of her status as guizhong's reincarnation. she scares him a bit... just a bit.

maya: stays as faaaar away from as possible. she, out of all the signy family, scares him the most. he knows if he slips up, he's dead.

nathaniel: respect. he often has his hair ruffled by the man. gets a bit annoyed with it but lets it happen.

Ashe (pokemon blog): she's a doting partner. she loves her partners with all she is and doesn't half-ass things. she values them as people. she isn't a demanding partner but she does ask them to keep pace with her. she values communication. she wants the good, the bad, and the ugly and she expects them to be able to handle hers. she wants a partner, not a one-night stand. as for if she'd kill for her partner?... well...

Ava: she is a person who values them as a person. she expects them to bare their everything to her so she can look at them and hold them in the silence and provide any attention they've been missing over the years they've been gone. she wants an equal and she doesn't want to be a prize of conquest. also, they must be open to her curiosity about nightly activities. if they aren't, she doesn't consider them a romantic interest. she is a woman with needs. on top of that... part of her, one day, far from now, does desire to be a mother. for a girl who is fundamentally lonely, to her, this would be the one thing that heals her soul.

Sienna: sienna by nature is independent, but she is very motherly and doting. she is also affectionate like a cat in some moments. she wants to sit and talk with her partner and or go on long walks. she wants them to tell her about their day and she can comment in her own way or tease them ever so gently. for her, being a mother is her priority. she's known nothing else growing up, so she wants her partner to be a doting person in turn to her children. for her, she wants to be able to be an equal to them and them to see not as a broken thing, but as the woman she is beneath all that.

Maya: maya is much like sienna, she is independent, fierce, and on top of that, she is a workaholic. she wants someone who respects that and is her equal in all things. as a lover, she is not entirely affectionate but not not affectionate. as a snow leopard fundamentally, she isn't much for keeping a 'mate' so to speak. however... when with the right person, beneath all that, she can be surprisingly loving and tender. she's not the domestic type, but she wouldn't be against moving in with someone and trying. as family-oriented as she is, while kids aren't necessarily on her mind, she isn't against being a mom/step-mom. honestly, would be better if a step-mom. she values her career and sitting still doesn't do well with her.

Chiharu: chiharu is very doting. she is also very sassy. she prioritizes her partner's comfort above her own and often needs to be reminded she's important too. chiharu values her autonomy and her bar and her friendship with venti as well as her "kids". her partner needs to be willing to accept the package deal. chiharu is a doting partner by trade so if they want free alcohol or are having a rough day, she's going to be there to listen or rub their shoulders. as for the sass... she tends to throw barbs out and expects them to be thrown right back. she's not fragile but that doesn't mean she likes to be insulted either.

Ione: the "shojo girlfriend" experience. as a partner she is affectionate, often purring or holding her partner's hand. she enjoys seeing them smile and hearing them laugh. it soothes her soul and validates her own feelings and self-worth at times. as a warrior and someone with an anemo vision, she is always on the move. she would like her partner to do the same.

Xue: a doting partner but not necessarily affectionate. xue is loyal by nature being she is a wolf adepti and being she's ace in some regards, to tie her down means you truly have captivated her. she likely is a friend before she is a romantic partner even when they're together as she fundamentally is an adepti. emotions are hard. she is also motherly and acts as a foil to her partner most times. in other words, she is the foil for xiao's tempest, but when the situation is right, she is a raging blizzard while he is the gentle wind to stop it.

Sora: an affectionate partner who can be a bit grumpy. she isn't into domesticity. she's more the "college girlfriend" experience. she tends to be always attached to her partner in some way. due to her abuse, she needs someone to remind her she's not in those situations anymore and in turn, she proves to be quite stubborn about their autonomy as well. she is the type of lover who will sit with someone in the quiet and simply lean on them to provide comfort. she knows what it's like to be at the brink of giving up. the last thing she wants is them to give up too.

Aster: the "bar girlfriend to wife" experience. aster is a proud person by nature but an equally proud lover. she expects what she knows the person can give and if she's not half-assing then she expects them not to half-ass. she has ended relationships for less. her biggest thing is she desires to be a mother and on top of that, she is a dragoness with needs. if the person can't provide it, then she isn't looking at them. she is also quite flirtatious with her partner, shameless even. so what if someone's watching? let them watch!

Lyra: lyra has trouble being affectionate or showing any kind of real emotion with her autism, but when she is verbal and is present, she can be quite forward with her desires. eye contact is her way of saying "i love you" due to how hard it is. she enjoys being apart of her partner's hobbies and understanding who they are as a person with what little time mentally she's given. she isn't a judgmental lover. actually, she's the one person that will sit with you in the dark and just do her arts and crafts. perhaps, in being autistic, she sees more then most people. all she really needs is someone to understand her in return. she's not a hard person to please.

Vega: vega is a person who was raised and cherished by kings and knights alike, as well as betrayed by them. as a lover, she is doting, yes, but she is also quite vain when the time calls for it. she loves to be affectionate with her partner and listen to their troubles, but she also is quite playful and not a tease, but mischievous. to her, there is no greater love then getting under her partner's skin with 'no'. (as seen with gilgamesh).

Lily: lily is a doting partner. she isn't afraid to be a homemaker and takes pride in her home to a point where if someone messes it up (partner included) she will throw hands. you could be a god, you could be a human (especially if you're human) she will throw hands. her partner's comfort is her comfort. she values the survival of her family above all else -- anyone else be damned. she is the ultimate "us against the world" experience. in the bedroom she's pretty vanilla and adapts to her partner's needs. what she's there for is the connection.

Lyra: 18. South American Heiress. Her father, Augustine, in his 40s, is recently widowed. Her uncles run a chain of bars in South America that's expanded into Tokyo. Currently, they're getting it off the ground which is why Lyra is there. Recently graduated from high school, Lyra is autistic, and artist by trade, and has a Australian Shepherd/Black Lab mix named Ororon (yes, that is a nod). Due to who she is, her name is in the papers a lot. She grew up with soccer being in South America, but she knows nothing about the Blue Lock or the men who compete in the scene here. Her true cultural name is Inyoni. She is multilingual and has her thumb on the pulse of the Art and Fashion worlds. She is known for her eccentric and aloof nature and being fashion-forward.

Ione: 16. An average high school girl who's mother moved her from Europe after a difficult situation. Her mother, recently remarried to a man named Zhongli, now attends a school near Blue Lock. She is a source of sunshine and smiles but is painfully naive and is easily overwhelmed and cries just as easily. Nevertheless, she tries to bring a smile to everyone's faces despite her difficult past. Her canon person for this verse is Chigiri Hyoma.

Miwa: 15. Known as Miwa Kisaragi of the Kisaragi Family, she is in this verse, the daughter of a Wolf Spirit and a Kitsune. She appears mostly normal outside her need to remain mostly ingrained in her nature once out of school. On moonlit nights, she appears as a white wolf near the Temple. Not much is known about her family except she has her parents and twin brother.

HISTORY: Ione was the result of a terrible thing that happened to Sienna, but she never knew – not until recently. Growing up in Mondstadt, she knew from an early age she wanted to work with the Knights of Favonius, and thus began work as a Messenger within the confines of the city at twelve. She’s now graduated to being allowed to take messages to the Outriders stationed five miles from the city. She learned to use a lance under the tutelage of the Knights, and in a moment of clarity, she received an Anemo vision, and has now learned about the origins her family and those around her kept from her and she doesn’t know what to do about it. So, she seeks work that takes her farther and longer from Mondstadt such as Sumeru or Natlan. Varka grants the request and so… she goes.
