Childe: Just Gonna Start Killing People I Don’t Find Funny

Paimon: your smug self assuredness is revolting

Childe: i think we need to validate self confidence more, lest you end up angry at others for having even a sliver of it. i did nothing wrong and i have a heart of gold

Traveler: i think this message is extremely valid but also childe has tried to drown liyue so what’s the truth

Childe: i was so close too

Operator 21O: Do you wanna know how I actually hurt my wrist?

9S: Yes

Operator 21O: I was hula hooping. Operator 6O and I began attending a class for fitness and for fun.

9S: Oh my god

Operator 21O: I’ve mastered all the moves. The pizza toss, the tornado, the scorpion, the oopsie-doodle.

9S: Why are you telling me this?

Operator 21O, deleting the pictures: Because no one will ever believe you.

9S: You sick son of a bitch.

Mona giving a tarot reading: i don’t know what’s going on here. like i just keep getting “the fool” over and over again? every card i pull. the whole deck is just “the fool” now. which shouldn’t even be physically possible.

Chongyun, a fucking fool: figures

Varric: As your best friend-

Hawke: Fenris is my best friend

Varric:

As your best friend

reasons why xingyun is the best and most canon ship cause i love them

(not saying the other ships aren’t as great and canon, i just feel like xingyun is the one with the obvious examples)

•both of their respective character story 4’s talk about each other

•”don’t like that plan? okay, then how about i read one for you? how about… young and hopelessly smitten?”

•”xingqiu once sang a song to celebrate chongyun’s birthday, but xingqiu’s singing triggered his pure yang spirit. so whenever he sings, chongyun will get excessive nose bleeds”

•xingqiu gave chongyun a fake lead to wuwang hill for ‘The Test of Courage’, a place filled with only couples, implying he wanted to go on a date with him in chongyun’s hangout event

•rain cutter and cloud cutter

•chongyun gave silk flowers in his birthday mail, which is xingqiu’s ascension material. he goes to talk about how he feels like his face his hot and he can’t find the words he wants to write, almost like a confession. people jokingly theorize that this letter was meant for xingqiu, not the traveler

•matching tassles

•they are always together in fanart and are very rarely with anyone else or even alone without each other

•they work well together in combat (freeze spam >>)

•they are shown as kids together during the moonchase festival cutscene, meaning they are childhood friends

•xingqiu payed off the damage chongyun did during his yang outburst at wangshu inn

•xingqiu is the reason chongyun is trying to find a spirit strong enough to resist his yang energy

•xingqiu often lies about spirit sightings and goes with chongyun to exorcize these fake spirits. whether it’s to genuinely keep his spirits up, an excuse to just hang out with chongyun, or xingqiu straight up just being an mischievous brat, is up for debate (i believe it’s all three combined tbh)

•the ‘wings of golden flight’ glider’s long description talks about xingqiu and chongyun as an anonymous duo who “pierce the rainbows and slice through the frost”

and finally

•”dear chongyun”

Xingqiu: guess what number im thinking of

Xiangling: 420

Xingqiu: no, that’s really immature of you. someone else guess and please take this seriously

Chongyun: 69?

Xingqiu: yeah it was 69

Kaeya: bigfoot, but fully shaved

Childe: mr. clean

Diluc: conversations like this are why i have anxiety

Zhongli: hey do any of my followers know how to render really well?

Childe: i can render my enemies immobile

Zhongli: i meant like 3d computer renders but ill keep you in mind for future reference

Luke: sure you may be verified on twitter, but are you verified in the eyes of god

Curtis: Nathan was a dick, a moron, an idiot, but most importantly, he was a twat. He will be missed.

Nathan: Stop telling people I’m dead.

Curtis: Sometimes we can still hear his voice.
