Close, But Not Your Favorite

“Close, but not your favorite

with Navia”

With her obligations in her life, you should’ve expected that you wouldn’t take priority. Even with her attempts to fill in gaps and plan dates, it wasn’t rare when cancellations would take place due to her inability to attend. She just had too much to do.

So you’d bite your tongue each time one of the Spina’s members would come to you directly and inform you of her absence.

It was as if life had favorites, and you weren’t one of them.

But to tell her, claiming that it’s simply too much to handle. How pathetic would that be? That you can’t handle not being a focus in her already busy and bustling life.

MAFU, YOUR WORKS ARE BEAUTIFUL <333

ᯓ✿ there was no saving you

ˋ°•*⁀➷ inspired by this amazing fic by beau 🫶 in which your illness only seems to get worse

ˋ°•*⁀➷ baizhu x gn! reader

₊˚ ANGST!!! MUCH ANGST, marrying a corpse but like not in a weird way, character death (reader)

he wished he knew from the very second you met that it wasn’t meant to last. the medicines he had brewed for you kept you sleeping and comfortable until the inevitable end. something kept baizhu standing by that bed, he could have gave up but he took care of you. even as you became weaker and barely able to stand for longer than a minute, he was losing sleep looking for something, anything that could cure you. maybe it was his dedication to medicine, or maybe he loved you despite your fleeting life.

in the middle of the night, the doctor had fallen asleep at his desk when he awoke from a nightmare and decided that enough is enough. he had realized something that night, something he hadn’t realized he wanted. baizhu knew deep down that there was absolutely nothing he could do to save you from the rapidly approaching end, this thing is going to kill you sooner rather than later. he’d find himself talking to you while you were fast asleep under the influence of the cocktail of medicines he’d given you to keep you comfortable, telling you everything and pretending you could hear him. if he could only take the ailment that will soon take your life and transfer it to himself, he would in a heartbeat.

as your condition further deteriorated, he knew the end would come in only days. as you took your last breath before falling into an eternal sleep, baizhu’s heart shattered into a million pieces. placing a silver ring on your finger, he’d carry your lifeless body to the grave he prepared just outside his house.

day after day, the doctor would place the flowers you loved on your grave, hopelessly praying that you’d be happy and without the illness that had taken your fleeting life on the other side.

“A place that I could call home

with Azul Ashengrotto”

He was feared by quite a few of his peers. And he was content with that reputation. The air that surrounded him was a reminder to avoid messing with him. Not even including the Leech twins that instilled terror in most, if not, all students.

But not you. In fact, his mysterious nature and facade only interested you. Like an oblivious researcher, you felt the need to learn more. To discover the secrets he’s permit you to.

Even as he tried to scare you off with threats or empty gestures, you remained stationary as a figure in his life. Pestering him about schoolwork or his plans when the lounge is closed. It was as if you were trying to weasel your way in.

He was teased relentlessly by Floyd Leech, and a little more quietly questioned by Jade Leech. What was a human outside of their knowledge trying to do? Intercepting their routine with curiosity and intrigue.

He had no answer to offer them, as he was also lost. You didn’t appear to have malicious intentions from what he interrogated you on. In fact, aside from blindly trusting him at every moment, there was really nothing he knew about you.

Perhaps he could keep you around, being the benevolent man he is.

"I wanna kiss your lips

with Mualani"

"I wanna be your girlfriend." The room stilled, interrupting Mualani's rambling about the blonde traveler she acquainted herself with. Her eyes locked with yours in a bewildered expression, one that you couldn't decipher. Still, you continued. "I don't want to lose my chance with the one girl I've ever liked for some random person she's never even met. It's not fair."

Not bearing to look back at her after your stupid and impulsive confession, you tried to get up from your seat in front of her, but she pulled you back as soon as you attempted to abandon the awkward position.

"So, you're gonna leave without giving a girl a chance to accept or reject you?" Using one of her hands, she guided your head to meet eyes with her own. A smile was stamps on her lips, like she'd won something. And perhaps it was your shame she'd retrieved. You couldn't tell. "Say it again, please."

"I-," you were hesitant, "I want to date you, Mualani."

Seeming satisfied, she contemplated her words before delivering them. "Then let's date, silly. I was waiting for you to notice me."

you have lynette brainrot but now i’m getting furina brainrot i wanna teach her to skateboard so bad :sob:

“Will you catch me if I fall

with Furina”

“You know you can’t be clutching onto me while on the board, correct?” As she scanned your words for any real annoyance or negativity, you tried to take a small step back. What does this action get out of her? Well, it gets you being grabbed like a lifeline.

It’s almost endearing, really. The way she insisted that you teach her the ways around the strange object, the skateboard. In all her years of living in city of Fontaine, known for its technology and advancements, she’d never seen something quite like this.

With her head buried in your shoulder, she brought her head back quickly, “uhm— of course I’m well aware of that! I simply wanted to test you.” You both knew she was lying, trying to save her embarrassment.

As you spent the whole day, slowly trying to get her more comfortable with being on her own, it came to a halt when she got upset. “This isn’t right! I’m supposed to be able to handle such a simple task! As the hydro archon, I—,” she cut herself off.

The dusk sunset highlighted her features, while accentuating the sadness in her eyes and body. Her voice was small in her next words.

“I just wanted to…give us something to bond over. Something more than my ramblings, or my incessant attempts at seeming bigger than I am.”

It hurt to see her crack in her facade due to her own distaste for her actions. “We can try again, Furina. I promise, we can try as many times as you’d like.”

She lifted her head to look at you, “really?” A few tears fell onto her cheeks, and you lifted your hand to wipe them.

“Of course, you’re never a waste of time.”

I just love Furina and Lynette <3
