s/o has been going through a depressive episode and lacks motivation to finish their work and is getting anxiety because of it
tw: none, mentions of depression/anxiety, nothing too much. fluffy comfort <3
albedo x gn!reader, kaeya x gn!reader, childe x gn!reader, zhongli x gn!reader, diluc x gn!reader
a/n: self indulgent bc i'm way behind school and in the middle of a depressive episode so motivation's been lacking ;-; hope you guys are having a good week tho!
i would like to clarify that if any of these scenarios/hc's of mine are similar to other writers' works, it is unintentional and i apologize
oh? unmotivated you say.. self depricating thoughts? intrusive ones too?
albedo was never one to mope around when he was stuck on some problem he's yet to puzzle together, but seeing you exhausted, anxious and so... dull–he desperately wants to take all your worries away
he's a bit slow, failing to realize your depressive episode for a few days. as it prolongs, he notices how you seem to talk down to yourself and give up easily
sometimes, you don't even start work at all
this is due to your anxiety, he assumes as you think you're incapable of finishing or doing the work satisfactorily enough.
pulling you into an embrace from behind as you work on the projects you've been stuck on for the past few weeks, he gently whispers into your shoulder
"darling, have you been alright recently? are you in need of assistance?" he asks
he presses a loving kiss on your neck and you stifle a chuckle
"it's that apparent, no? i've been under the weather for quite a while now.."
as you explain your reasons and all your troubles to his end, he nods and hums ever so often
"you must be feeling drained, hm? well, frankly enough, i seem to need a break myself."
"eh? albedo where-!!”
he pulls you away from your working place and carries you to the couch, laying you down gently as he smiles at you
"aside from your unmotivated self, i reckon you need reassurance for those intrusive thoughts of yours."
and that, ladies, gentlemen and folks, is how you end up cuddling with albedo until the sun sets and you fall asleep
bask in the comfort of his words as he calls you his everything and more :')) <333
my, oh my. what's gotten into his precious little love?
he's sharp, quite easily takes notice to your frantic and dim self.
he sees you sitting outside, head in your hands and sighs leaving your lips every now and then
unbeknownst to you, he creeps behind you and presses a careful peck on the nape of your neck, causing you to flinch and look back quickly
he was about to laugh at your cuteness, but as soon as he's reminded of your troubled state, he sits beside you and takes your face into his hands
sir we're in the plaza-
"oh archons, why is my sunshine so dim these days?" he pouts
rip u probably after this
"kaeya.. well, you see-"
and as you explain your current doubts and anxieties, he strokes your cheeks softly and looks into your eyes fondly
when you're finished, he nods and presses a light kiss on your forehead, a silent promise to accompany and help you on your endeavors to face your troubles
"i'll always be here for you, my love. if there's anything i can help you with, do not hesitate to come into my arms, hm?"
"noted, mr. suave"
jkjk o r a m i
he laughs and kisses you on the edge of your mouth
"what say you we head into the tavern for a bit? you could use some relaxation, right?"
as if you had a choice other than to say yes
this man would know the second it started
having a bunch of siblings has its benefits huh
when he walks into your shared room and sees you on the edge, tears brimming your eyes he sits you down on your bed
"hey, hey.. i'm here, it's alright."
as you cry in his embrace, he rocks you gently, shushing you softly in an attempt to hinder your tears
"you can tell me if you're up for it, honey. i'm never too busy for you."
"i-it's just that-"
mhm. oh? why, how dare they treat you so harshly. really? why must you have to be burdened so heavily?
he acknowledges your struggles and worries with gentle strokes and brushing through your hair
"you have it really rough, don't you? ah well, nothing we can do but-"
"childe?"
he stands up and leaves the room for a second
he comes back with food, drinks, your favorite clothing of his, a scented candle you bought and some books you have yet to finish reading
the action warms your heart as you sniffle and smile at your lover
as soon as he lays down with you, prepare to never see daylight again as he won't let go for the longest, and i mean longest time ever
"i love you, y/n. you're strong and don't let anything, not even yourself, make you think otherwise."
dearest, must life be so unfair to you? why you out of all people?
zhongli is wise–he knows something is bothering you when it does. that being said, he isn't sure whether or not he should approach you so directly
especially if it seems like a sensitive topic
instead, in your depressive state and anxious fiddling, he calls you over to him
he pulls you into his lap as he takes your face into his hand and kisses you tenderly
"my dear, has anything been bothering you? might i offer my hand in dealing with them?"
you'd think kaeya's mr. suave then this man pops up with his broke ass
"as a matter of fact.."
as you go on and state your dealings and troubles, he listens with an almost solemn look
he looks at you with utmost affection and concern when you finish
"the terrains of life have been steep and intimidating, you have been very commendable for braving through these, my dearest."
he places his lips onto your own and strokes the back of your head lovingly
for a reserved man, zhongli easily expresses his affection for you in multitudes of ways
his kisses being one of them
after parting your lips, he peppers your face with his kisses and you laugh quietly at his ministrations
"might i suggest a quick stroll to take your mind off things?"
you agree, thinking that once you head home, you'll be back to work with a clearer mind
little did you know mr. no money in his pockets got a liiiittle surprise for you as you won't be returning to your work any time soon :DDDD
by 'surprise' i mean he's taking you out to dinner
yall nasties
diluc is a busy man, dealing with a winery and all
along with his night profession (which he has only admitted to you and the traveling duo)
you did your best to hide your troubled self and aid him in his work, but you can only hold the facade for so long before it eats you up inside
when you break, he is slightly taken aback but is quick to comfort you
he sees you shaking and situates you on his couch as he sits beside you, rubbing your back as you curl into his figure
he's very warm
"sweetheart, would you mind telling me the problem?" he asks
he waits for an answer as you're still trying to find the words
"diluc, i'm sorry for bothering you.. i know you have plenty on your schedule and-”
"y/n, you're my top priority, no matter what. my work is nothing compared to what you mean to me."
and it's true, you're really his top priority
woohoo !! :DD
when you explain your anxieties and doubts to diluc, he's very understanding and listens to you earnestly
"-and that's why i've been so.. down, let's put it."
he strokes your face and presses his forehead to your own, looking you in the eye softly
he pulls you in tighter and closer, pressing kisses to your jawline and below your ear
"thank you for expressing your troubles with me, my love. i'm sorry for not noticing earlier."
"no need, love, you're very busy and i can't thank you enough for taking the time to understand me."
he pulls away for a second and shakes his head
"again, my work is nothing compared to you. i am willing to put aside all my responsibilities for a week in order to ensure your happiness."
uh wh a t
"ah," you laugh concerned, "sure–"
"which is what we're going to be doing this week." he smiles
welp. no turning back now
enjoy ur week with the redhead you utter s i m p

tw: mentions of self harm and suicide, mental health issues and angst with a bit of fluff
xiao x gn! reader
a/n: first post on the blog! decided to show some xiao love and u h angst ehe. sorry for the downer but i haven’t been doing so well and meds don’t do much DDDX
i would like to clarify that if any of these scenarios/hc's of mine are similar to other writers' works, it is unintentional and i apologize
“reckless thing, you are-” the yaksha huffs and ceases his own words as he coughs at your impact on his chest. “how many times have i reminded you to stop running up or down the stairs?” he scowls. you know he means well.
“ah, sorry xiao,” you chuckle, “i’m just excited to see you, is all.” you push yourself off the chest that caught you and peered gleefully at the male. he seems annoyed to the unknowing mortals passing by, but as a person who has spent half their time ‘pestering’ (as he says) the adeptus, you can quickly tell that he was merely relieved and was trying to hide it—although he’d rather deal with karmic debt twice his own than to admit such fondness for you. “thanks by the way.”
xiao diverts his gaze onto the railing of the stairs, “this is the fourth time this week that you’ve gotten yourself into dangerous and careless situations. are you sure you’re keeping an eye out for yourself?” he interrogates you as if he were your guardian, which he might as well be, you nod earnestly at his question.
“don’t worry about me, i’d never dream of leaving you alone.” you giggle. this answer of yours urged the adeptus to cringe and tell you to stop thinking like you’re all important and whatnot, but he knew he’d be lying if he said you weren’t someone he treasures deeply. “i swear on it!” you add.
“hmph, fine.” he begins to walk away, stopping for a second. xiao hesitates to take the next step without a word and decides to leave you with a message,
“if you ever find yourself in trouble, no matter how small or big–if you know that it’ll cause you any harm, call out my name. i’ll be there.”
you appreciated that.
to be fair, xiao did not bring up his concern because of your recent recklessness, but how dim you seem in comparison to how you were before. yes, you still smiled brightly, but the lanterns in the sky easily outshines you. your eyes still held warmth, but warmth that fleeted every now and then if not focused on the adeptus’. he worried that something was gnawing at the back of your mind and causing said recklessness as of current.
he knows mortals are weak, fragile, and although he does not look down on you too much, he still feels the need to protect you from even the slightest of disturbances, which is what led to his conclusion now; to check up on you.
‘where in teyvat are they?’ xiao furrows his eyebrows in frustration as he knocks on the door to your house for the sixth time.as he reaches out to knock once more, he flinches slightly when the door opens.
what the hell?
“oh! xiao, what are you doing here?” you smile.
he could see how distressed you are, even from a mile away, he presumes. you look weaker, thinner and definitely worse than three days ago. eyes as dull as a blank canvas that hasn’t been acknowledged by it’s artist for years, limbs as frail as a dried flower’s petals. what in archons happened to you?
“y/n, what in the seven happened? what’s with your weak physique? you clearly haven’t been taking care of yourself.” he moves to grab your arm but you draw it back quickly before he could catch it. he grows more and more irritated as your silence greets his question, left to be unanswered.
“i’m sorry, xiao, but could you leave me be for a while? i’ll visit you soon, i promise!”
ah, there you go again with your promises.
“why the hell would i leave after seeing you on the brink of fainting? someone has to look out for you if you aren’t going to yourself!” he exclaims as he grows more and more livid by the second.
you huff in annoyance, “why do you care? you have millions of other people to save, you shouldn’t get distracted by one you can’t do anything about.”
xiao clicks his tongue in extreme disappointment as he doesn’t seem to get through you. “you don’t get it at all, do you?”
“you don’t get it either, xiao.”
silence envelops the air between you as you bask in infuriatingly awkward stillness. xiao knows he doesn’t get it, you know you’ll never understand him either. it’s hopeless.
after a few minutes or what felt like a decade, you speak up.
“..hey, can you accompany me somewhere?” you catch his attention. he raises a brow in skepticism, as it is the middle of the night. “it won’t take long.”
he sighs quietly and nods, nudging his head to silently signal you to lead the way. he might as well accompany you instead of going off on a tangent about how you worry him too much.
you arrive at the windrise tree, the breeze nipping gently at your exposed legs. xiao eyes you from behind and bites his tongue despite his urge to berate you.
you sit down at the base of the windrise tree, letting out a long sigh of relief as you stretch your legs. the adeptus hesitates for a second but ultimately decides to sit down beside you.
this time, he’s the first to break the ice.
“what is your purpose of going here with me?” he doesn’t meet your eyes that snap to him quickly at his question.
there are multiple reasons as to why you might have wanted to visit windrise, some being that you wanted to take a breather after a heated argument, taking a stroll after an exhausting week or even just needing a fresh scenery for a change. all of these reasons and yet, nothing could have prepared him for the words that came next.
“it could be the last time i’ll see this place again.” you smile fondly, despite the rather depressing statement you had just made.
the yaksha froze up. ‘last time? are you moving?’
could it be that you’re leaving him? when you said you never dared to even think of it?
perhaps the fatui were after you?
were you in danger?
his mind listed a myriad of possibilities, all of them he wished were not true. he was still trying to wrap his head around what you just said. when you finally take into account his stiffness and silence, you forced out a chuckle.
“yeah, i’ll be gone by tomorrow.”
he shouldn’t have done what he did next.
“..xiao? are you-”
he cut you off by standing up and glaring at you.
your heart dropped at his gaze.
it was one of the most intimidating but hurtful looks he’d ever made in your presence. his eyes screamed in unsaid fury and his face was etched in borderline offense. looking down. you see both his fists clenched in a tight grip of nothing. his form was trembling in anger, almost making you mistake yourself for one of the millions of demonic figures he rinsed the land of.
“don’t ever show yourself again.”
noted. and he’s gone.
you stare at your scarred arms and wrists.
‘it won’t be long now.’
xiao regrets it now, is all.
hi, i love your work <3 i hope you don’t mind if i requested for a scenario with venti and a gn reader? the reader and venti are friends, but they remain unaware of his true identity. one day at windrise, venti decides to listen in on the wind and hear the prayers of his people, only to end up hearing a familiar voice praying to him—“oh lord barbatos, if it is your will, please let my good friend venti return my feelings.” (what happens next is up to you! that’s all, have a wonderful day <3)
perhaps praying to the anemo archon, barbatos for venti to like you back was a dumb plan in hindsight.
tw: none, just fluff
venti x gn! reader
a/n: this ask is so cute T~T <3333 sorry this took so long anon !! hopefully the writing makes up for the long wait
i would like to clarify that if any of these scenarios/hc’s of mine are similar to other writers’ works, it is unintentional and i apologize
not proofread
“another glass for the bard, charles!”
the bartender seems reluctant to serve another glass to the out-of-it customer sitting beside you, giggling and letting out little hiccups ever so often.
“venti, i think you’ve hand enough drinks for the night..” you smile sympathetically at the now pouting male. he resembles a kicked puppy in this state, is what you thought.
“what?! but it’s only eight o’clock! i haven’t blacked out yet,” the drunkard retaliates but you know better, so does diluc who comes out from the back door of the tavern.
“y/n, would you mind helping him home? we’re about to close for the night,” the redhead takes notice of the clock displayed and how it’s five before ten pm. “i doubt he’d be able to stand without someone’s assistance.”
giving diluc a nod and taking an arm of his around your shoulders, you carry the boy (?) out of the tavern and bid goodnight to the two bartenders. venti is barely holding himself up as his legs shake, undoubtedly having a difficult time staying conscious.
‘really, what do i see in you, venti?’ you muse to yourself with a sigh. reaching for the key in his pocket, you unlock the door to his house and place him on the couch with a ‘phew!’
you notice that as soon as you let him down on the couch, venti’s already out cold, soft snores filling the silence that surrounds you both. the sight of him is enough to plaster a grin on your face, finding him the most endearing person you’ve had the pleasure of meeting. the way his eyebrows twitch in his sleep from time to time melts your heart like it was once made of ice, his murmuring of whatever he was dreaming of made it hard for you to keep yourself from pressing a kiss to silence him.
deciding it’s about time you leave and stop watching your friend sleep, you step out the house and retreat to your own.
the next morning, venti finds himself in the comfort of his own home, lying on the couch downstairs. “hng-!” he stretches his limbs, “y/n must’ve brought me home.” he laughs and makes a mental note to thank you later with a few drinks, quite lucky, you are.
“ah, what a splendid day!” the bard whimsically sighs as he steps out into the warmth of the sunlight. “perhaps this would make a fine day to play a few tunes at windrise,” he chuckles and sets foot.
you, on the other hand, were just waking up as you feel rays of sunshine beam through your window and strike your face with it’s comforting warmth. with fluttering eyes, you struggle to open them and yawn, “how come i’m still so tired?...”
ah, right. you had accompanied your lyre-playing friend to the tavern and went home later than you usually would. oh, well, not like you minded doing so.
smiling at the thought of his sleeping expression, you decided a few more hours of rest wouldn’t do much harm.
right before you drift away to slumber, you prayed silently to the anemo archon, rather blissfully,
“lord barbatos.. if you would be so kind, please let venti return my feelings. i don’t think i can take it much longer.”
and with that, you began to snooze once more.
whilst you rest peacefully, your said friend stared into the ground, frozen in what seemed like shock.
that was your voice, was it not?
slowly, a wide smile takes shape on the bard’s lips. “oh, dear y/n..” he chuckles and begins strumming his lyre as he sings.
you’re in for a ride, buddy.
as nighttime rolls around, venti waits for you at the usual spot in the tavern. grinning to himself, he had a plan on how he was going to make things work out between the two of you. just what he had in mind? wait and see.
“ah, y/n! thanks for assisting me home last night, hope i wasn’t too much trouble to deal with.” venti laughs and pats the seat next to him, inviting you to sit next to him.
“it wasn’t any trouble, venti, worry not.” you smile and take a seat.
a few drinks after, everything seemed to be going fine and dandy. that is until your bard friend started spacing out, seemingly in pain.
“are you alright?..” you crouch down to his level as the clutches his stomach, clearly too pained to respond. diluc sees this and rushes over, albeit quietly so as to not grab attention from the other customers. “what happened to him?” his query was met with a shrug from you. huffing in concern, he guides you both to the backroom where you could have some privacy.
you sit venti down and rub his back, wondering what in the world could have happened.
“y/n..” he says weakly, “can i trust you with something?” he asks as he meets your gaze. quickly nodding, you insist he carries on.
“what is it you want to entrust to me?” you ask.
he takes your hands in his and suddenly sits up.
what?
“i want to entrust onto you..” he raises your hands to his lips and gives it a warm peck, “my feelings.”

i would like to clarify that if any of these scenarios/hc’s of mine are similar to other writers’ works, it is unintentional and i apologize
after the incident that happened between you and his former assistant, he hadn’t left the lab and you inside it for days
he claims to others that something in his research had come up and he would be requiring maximum isolation for the next few days
or weeks
(absolutely believable considering the timely announcement of his deceased assistant)
“albedo..” the alchemist’s eye twitched at the ring of your voice, beckoning him to you
“shouldn’t you at least entertain me–your captive?” you sickeningly chuckle as you notice his annoyance
soon this turned into complete panic
“come on,” you cling onto his arm, “pay attention to me before i leave you with no assistants at all.”
the audacity, albedo exclaims internally
“do not tempt me to bind you to a chair until i find a solution, y/n.” he peers menacingly into you in a futile attempt to guise his fear
fear that you’d be too much for him to control
that he’ll lose you even further
you let out a ‘tsk’ as you take a seat beside the busied alchemist
“why are you even trying so hard?” a mumble escapes your mouth
perhaps he felt responsible
or maybe he does this to avenge sucrose
there might even be a slim possibility of him still loving you
but none of these answers felt genuine enough to reason
“frankly enough, i, too, question why.”
your trip home was awkward
and that’s to say the least
fuming in utter disbelief and rage was your alleged lover, intentionally averting his gaze from you
he was trying so hard not you hit you, the only thing holding him back is that he didn’t want to stoop to your level
you were rather pleased with what had happened and flaunted this
“that went well,” you smile and raised an eyebrow as you eyed childe
“you have no heart at all.” his voice devoid of any emotion aside from anger reaches your ears
at this, you dare laugh amidst the tension in the atmosphere surrounding the both of you
“now, i wouldn’t say that! i did it for you, isn’t that enough to prove i’m just as human as everyone else?”
“you make me sick.” the harbinger spits
you aren’t too pleased with this
moving to his side, you pinch his cheeks, “come now, love. a little warning from me won’t kill them!” you attempted to lift the mood but all is in vain as you feel a wet drop trickle down from childe’s cheek to your hand
eyes widening at this. you finally pipe down at wait for his response
he grabs your wrist and yanks it from his face
“don’t you dare come near me every again, you’re the worst person i’ve ever been manipulated by.”
to say that kaeya was disappointed is an understatement
what’s worse than catching your lover trying to murder some nun for inconveniencing him at the dead of night?
having all this happen and being a captain of the knights of favonius
“what in celestia’s name has gotten into you, y/n?”
oh, he was mad
no ‘baby,’ ‘sweetheart–’ not even ‘snowdrop’
you idly twiddle your thumbs innocently, as if you weren’t about to be charged for attempted murder in a few hours
“i thought it would make you happy.” you admit
facepalming to the highest caliber, kaeya sighs and manages to break a sarcastic smile, finding the entire situation unbelievable
“simply outstanding, l/n.”
uh oh, he used your last name
furrowing your eyebrows, you raise one, “you’ve never called me that, sweetheart.”
kaeya glares at you, “let’s put it like this–i’m trying my absolute best not to knock you out right now.”
“i still don’t see how i did anything wrong.” you cross your arms
the knight chuckles hoarsely
“oh, you will.” he states
and after that, he goes ahead to the acting grandmaster’s office
things are going to be pretty rough for you from now on
once he had found adelinde’s corpse in the vicinity and see how you disposed of her, he felt sick to the stomach
yet another one buried six feet under his
“do you like my gift, dearest?” placing a hand on his stiff shoulder, you look at the mess you made
“why, you-” he grumbled and grits his teeth
and the worst has yet to come
“once i have you behind bars for this, i’ll make sure you repent.” diluc states with his clenched fists
“oh, about that-” you laugh, “you can’t”
what?
“excuse me?!” the pyro wielder exclaims
“well, mister flawless reputation, i’ve already devised a plan beforehand,” you pause to slowly circle the man frozen in place
“elzer had put in records of cannibalism in adelinde’s files, since suspicion has been around for a while.”
damn the maids for having such loud mouths
“a simple statement such as ‘it was self defense!’ and it’d be fine.”
you were truly a force to be reckoned with when aggravated
even so, if he couldn’t have you put in jail, no way was he going to let you live alongside him any further
“pack your things.” he clenches his jaw and drags you indoors
“i’ll give you five minutes to take everything with you, and if you dare defy me this time, i’ll make sure you are dealt with swiftly myself.”
out of everything you could’ve surprised him with, why did it have to be this?
this wasn’t a pleasant surprise, no
he didn't feel any love from what you’d done, only the flames of fury engulfed the adeptus
“in what plane if existence did you think what you’d done is flattering?!” the yaksha yelled once you and him got to a secluded room in wangshu inn
“xiao, i wasn’t trying to be mean, she laid her eyes on you-”
“like every other being does! gods, y/n, you’re unfathomable.” xiao rubs his temples
inching closer to the trembling man, you atemtped to massage his throbbing head
your efforts have been dismissed with a swat of xiao’s hand as he growls at you
“don’t touch me, filthy mortal.”
“you make me sound like i killed someone,” you laughed it off which angered him greatly
“you almost did!” he reasoned and you tilted your head, feigning ignorance as if this wasn’t a huge deal
“listen, if you’re not going to act accordingly and attack everyone who even lays their eyes on me, do not try to call out my name,” he turns back to you before disappearing into mists of green and black
“i won’t heed to your call.”
im alive i swear i just have exams ;-;
i've been thinking about the nickname 'albie' too !!!!! its so cute😭💕
‘bedo’ is a very cute nickname for albedo and i love when writers use it,
but i (humbly) ask that you please also consider ‘albie’ because i just think that it’s a little quirky but still cute !! (and it doesn’t sound like beidou, though, that isn’t often a problem)
Synopsis: character watches as you get hit - and reacts
Genre: verbal threats, near drowning, angry** character
ALBEDO x GN reader | Anthology List
^ this … this story fought me at every freaking turn. I lost half of it and had to re-write it, I felt lost on every sentence … I still don’t really know if I get Albedo well enough or not? I’m just sorry.
