Yan!Kitsune!Childe

"Come on come with me (N/N)~. It'll be fun, promise!" You sighed at the gleeful statement. Childe was a.....interesting individual. He seems to be always bursting with energy. Perhaps it's because of those sweets you always see him eat when you saw him. "Childe, I have a lot of work to do today. Maybe next time?"

He pouted "What work do you have to do anyway?" You lifted up a basket of scrolls "I need to make sure these scrolls are delivered. Each with it's own destination. It might take me the entire day to make sure nothing goes wrong. Plus, my superior will be mad." He huffed but hummed in an understanding tune.

It was when you leave he decides to take the matter into his own claws.

'Aaaaand that should be the last one. All I need is to report back and I'm done for the day.' You thought to yourself as you walked to your superior's office. You knocked before entering but you didn't hear them saying to come in. Which was weird because usually they would answer you when you knocked. 'Maybe they're distracted....?' You opened the door gently "Excuse me....? I've come to repor--"

Your eyes widen at the sight before you. Your superior was lying in a pool of blood! You immediately rushed to their side, not caring to close the door, but the hollow empty eyes that was glued on their expression made you knew that they were dead. You inspected their wound and found claw slashes. A wolf? But then they would have eaten their body by now. Plus how did wolves or any animal get here? Surely it had to be wounds inflicted by claws.

The door was then violently shut. Averting your attention from your now-dead superior to a figure in front of the door. They had a familiar looking mask and a pair of fox ears that seemed way too real. A kitsune? But you thought they were just mere folktales. They approached you slowly, 6 tails emerged behind them. You stood up and backed away until the wall hits your back. The figure was close to your body. "(N/N)~, now that they're gone, you'll come with me right?" That voice.....You've heard it somewhere before.

"Childe?"

"The one and only." Was this his doing? "Are you the one behin--" "Yes, I was. They were distracting you so I got rid of them." You gasped at this "All this just because of that? Childe you can't be possibly be serious roght now." The tails, his tails, wrapped around your legs. As some sort of warning to not run. "But I am, can't you see these claws of mine that was stained by their blood?" He held your face ever so gentle to not hurt you with his sharp nails. Staining your cheek with a bit of blood. He took off his mask to show you his crazed smile. You stared at him with horror, his eyes were thin slits and his fangs were sharp. He was definitely not human.

Thanks anon! And I hope you don't mind me doing Chinese mythos since Liyue is based on China! Also this is longer than usual.

Ningguang and Beidou sharing an S/O, Oriental Mythos AU

It all started with Ningguang.

Noble, rich and beautiful. Everyone who wanted to court her was rejected politely and coldly.

That's until she saw you, a simple citizen in the city she resided in. You were so.....ordinary. Not out of place, an opposite of who she is.

Suffice to say after 'running into you coincidentally' a few times. She was pretty intrigued and infatuated. Opposites attracts I guess.

So using her position and connections, she managed to make you one of her attendant. It was going very well for her ,albeit not for you with all the suffocating affections and basically imprisonment, until a demon called Beidou showed up.

Once a mighty sea demon who may or may not got defeated by a certain monkey king, now retreating to Ningguang's fancy pond (Which is probably the size of a lake). Unfortunately you were taking a stroll there to get away from Ningguang's presence.

What you didn't expect however was the two bodyguards that Ningguang appointed to protect you to be violently ripped apart by a demon. After having her fill, she looks at your terrified form. She was about to approach you when Ningguang suddenly came and fended her off with the power bestowed upon her by the dragon god Rex Lapis.

After cleaning up the scene and making sure you were alright, she was about to get a monk or an exorcist to get rid off the demon but she saw something in the demon's eyes. The same look in her own eyes when Ningguang first looked at you.

So she decided to:

Get some relics that binds a demon to your will. At first Beidou refused, her pride being her reason but after knowing that she can get close to you.....she accepted.

Beidou was no different from Ningguang, her affection was also suffocating but what made Beidou different from Ningguang was the fact what you were to them.

Ningguang saw you as her lover while Beidou sees you as some sort of paragon treasure.

While Ningguang admits that she was worried sharing you with a demon, it was quite convenient for her. Beidou is strong to protect you from danger.

Beidou isn't pleased to share you with Ningguang but this damn relic binded her to Ningguang so she has no choice but to obey. She's quite rebellious, which amuses Ningguang, but she knows when to not step over the boundary.

"Now now Phoenix, what did we say about trying to go outside of my domain?"

Yes you can anon 👀 I hope you don't mind me doing Chinese Mythos bc Liyue is based on China! Also please do send an ask again if you wanted a ficlet and not HCs!

Oriental Mythos AU with Xiao

Let's be real he would be a demon.

Perhaps a shape shifting one with power over the winds. Living in the mountains or the woods. Who pretty much is feared by the local lesser demon population.

He's quite a kind demon. He once served the mighty dragon god until said god released him from his contracts. Now he occasionally help protect the local non-demon population if needed.

How he met you can happen various ways. Perhaps you just happened to be foraging or passing through and he saw you. Maybe another strong demon lord decided to invade your settlement and you decided to seek him out for help.

After the whole demon lord fiasco thing, he decided to stay around. Just in case one of said demon lord's servants came back for revenge.

This is probably the time where he gets to talk with you a lot. Overtime he feels like he's on cloud 9 with you. The feeling of being himself and not some revered guardian demon. It makes him feel alive.

So it should be no surprise when he asked for you as a payment for his help. But hey it can't be that bad.....right? Surely he'll let you visit your friends and family in a while.

Well, no he won't.

He's quite the possessive and protective demon. Under the dragon's god rule he never really did have anything for himself or anyone to fight for. But now he has you. Making you immortal so that you won't die of old age.

Sure can anon! Glad you liked the first one and I hope you'll like this one too.

Oriental Mythos AU Xiao

The view from the mountain was beautiful and serene. Even after centuries, you still haven't feel dull after looking it at every different seconds of the day. Your husband, the demon Xiao, was kind enough to at least let you see the dawn of the sun and the light of the moon. He still didn't let you wander outside of his territory though.

Too much danger he said, demons could use you as a leverage against him or worse. All things considered, it wasn't bad. He showered you with lavish things. Sure he was kind of awkward at giving affections but it'll always end up being soft and sweet. You never really tried to go and venture out. He could probably track down your scent in no time and you had no idea what to do after escaping.

Your old friends and family long gone. The society was completely different from your time. And yet, your heart yearned for freedom somehow. But there was nothing left for you outside of his embrace. So even if you did go out, you had no purpose.

"Something wrong, lantern?" You snapped out of your thoughts when Xiao called out to you. "Ah.....Xiao.....Sorry was I not responding? I was too absorbed with the scenery." You turned to him with a smile, unsure whether it was genuine or not.

He caressed your cheek "I see.... Why don't you come and drink with me inside? It's almost night time."

But if it's worth saving them

"Of course dear."
