    Summary

    The intact tower, the storm wall around the city, the howling winds that surrounded them.

     

    Didn't he dispel the storm wall? Why couldn't he see the sky?

     

    "Little friend!" He hears a familiar voice call out, and he freezes, "Why do you seem so down?" The voice continues, so painstakingly familiar. Venti glances at the direction of the voice and stiffens, because there is his friend, looking just as he remembers him, so reminiscent of a fleeting past, with outstretched hands just like his statue in front of the church in Mondstadt. "We will be free soon, and we will be able to see the sky and the world beyond," The bard continued, "There is no reason to be so glum."

    Oh, Venti realizes, I am here again.

    or alternatively, the fic in which venti falls asleep again and wakes up in a time where they haven't overthrown decarabian yet and the nameless bard is still alive. naturally, venti plans to keep him that way.

    Summary

    Inversion of Genesis, from Scaramouche / Wanderer’s POV, and the third and final part of Gathered Shards. Let’s go through the wringer together this time.

    The direct continuation of Wisdom's Shadow, and I recommend reading it first, but can be read as a standalone!

    Summary

    The world around him grew darker and the shards fewer, truly like a barren abyss. And in this darkness, the wounds of the puppet shone brightly. It held the same beauty as a star falling down to Teyvat from the heavens.

    But those divine stars do not shed tears.

    And yet that wandering vessel of a puppet could do little to stop them from falling all the way down with him.
    -
    AKA: author's take on what happened within the irminsul tree when scaramouche entered it to remove himself from existence.

    title is from meltdown/炉心融解 by iroha(sasaki) which also inspired parts of this fic.

    Summary

    A lone hellebore flower sat swaying in the wind, watching the world around it. It observed as other flowers grew and changed, maybe even bloomed. Through rain and shine and storm, even when the sky lit up with lighting and the trees around it died, it remained.
    One day, a red cardinal found it. The hellebore offered its tree, and the cardinal stayed. Again, throughout the years they lived side by side. The cardinal wandered sometime, meandering off into the distance, yet always returning to where the hellebore was rooted.
    Neither of them remembered the reason they were there, that the great forest fire had spread their seeds or destroyed their homes.

    And neither of them noticed that the great fire had returned, for there was no smoke in the distance when it came.

     

    --> IN WHICH: The Balladeer's choice to erase himself accidently sets off a second timeline. Watch as two idiots (one being you) fall in love twice! The first time as two dangerous enemies in the Fatui, voluntarily working together most of the time, yet bickering and teasing each other constantly when doing so. The second time as an unlikely meeting between The Wanderer and a nameless informant hiding from the law.

    Summary

    The puppet who once called himself Scaramouche groaned. "Ugh, that does not help me at all."

    "I gave you my best answer, I mean you could just come up with one on the spot when asked for one, as well. Pretty risky if you ask me-" He was slowly putting his head in his hands as the girl who went by the Traveler rambled on about names.

    Summary

    A murder mystery and fantasy adventure, with a choice at the end of every chapter for you to make!


    Tighnari was a cautious man. A simple botanist, running a simple florists’ in a simple town. Dark skin and red eyes lingered in his mind’s eye, but he did his best to bat the imagery away. He kept his head down, and he lived a simple life.

    Cyno was far less cautious. He believed in justice, and he believed a simple life was a life of cowardice. If you could go through an unjust world with no altercations, you were part of the problem.

    When DCI Xiao requests Tighnari's assistance, with a murder case involving strange flowers, the simple botanist nearly refuses. Nearly. Accepting, however, might bring more trouble than he bargained for...

    Mystery after mystery litters the journey of our unlikely heroes. Who is the murderer? What is Cyno hiding? And what does Ancient Teyvat have to do with any of it?

    Summary

    Ei sensed a presence. “Come forward. If you already dared follow an archon into these depths, then see it through and reveal yourself.” After a long moment, Scaramouche stepped forward. Hand on her hip, Ei raised her chin. “What business do you have with me?”

    Shaking his head, Scaramouche waved a hand in dismissal. He mumbled, “There’s no point. You don’t remember.”

    “Don’t remember—?” Ei inhaled sharply. Brows furrowed, she studied him. Read the unusual flow of energy within him. “You… you are the unaccounted-for puppet from my memory.”

    Realizing there's a hole in her memories, Raiden journeys into the Shakkei Pavilion domain—the place where she had abandoned Scaramouche after his creation—and finds him waiting for her there. A Raiden & Scaramouche family fix-it fic!

    Summary

    Xiao is dating the sixth Fatui Harbinger. Things deteriorate.

    Scaramouche rolled his eyes before getting out of bed, kissing Xiao's cheek and making him wince at the agony in his nerves. "I'm going to get you something to eat, stupid. What do you want?"

    "Nothing."

    Scaramouche glared back at him for a moment before he sighed. "Sounds just like you. I'll get you your usual."

    Summary

    As my own consciousness faded and merged with my 'past incarnation', I thought of him - the Balladeer, Kunikuzushi, Kabukimono… It was dawning at me that he didn't want to destroy, to consume, to possess. He didn't want me. Didn't want anything I was able to offer - a clean slate void of any burden and emotion. He wanted something that couldn't be seen, something so innocent and human.

    He wanted to be saved.

    Summary

    It was thundering out the day Xiao first met the Wanderer, face obscured by flashes of lightning and whipping rain, yet the Wanderer never stopped smiling.
    Many years later, when the Wanderer finally returned, his face would become the raging storm on an otherwise cloudless day.

    Summary

    Eyeing her suspiciously, Wanderer countered, “You’d extend such a curtesy to someone who tried to overthrow you, to destroy you?”

    “Scaramouche the Sixth of the Fatui Harbingers tried to overthrow me, not Wanderer.” Nahida gently answered, each word uttered weighing heavily on the puppet’s mind, “Your past does not define who you can be. If you wish to atone for your former self’s sins – perceived and real alike – living your life for yourself is the best remedy.”

     

    Processing his regaining of past memories, Wanderer spends a night on the footsteps of the Sanctuary of Surasthana, struggling to come to terms with his past sins. But help comes in the most unexpected form and acceptance suddenly becomes not a farfetched concept.

    Summary

    (non-fiction essay, meta-analysis, not a fic)

    The Wanderer has an odd ability I've yet to see others explore. Which is odd as it has deep implications for his character regarding his hopes, dreams, and future.

    In this research-dump-turned-essay, I will break down these parts into three segments: his ability, his philosophical leanings, and my synthesis: hope or nostalgia

    Summary

    antiophobia
    /ˈanˌtīˈəfōbēə/ n.

    the fear that unassuming farewells will be final— that they will not suffice.

    Capitano does not know them. But whoever this used to be— he shifts, shadows shuddering with the movement, deliberate gaze never faltering— certainly knew him.

    The figure smiles, corners of their mouth curling into a mocking grin.

    capitano, on the subject of remembering.
