for some inspiration that made me wheeze

___________

a few years ago, venti wrote a creator x barbatos fanfic for the shits and giggles.

but then the cathedral found it

so now they recite verses and preach about them being in love

and then it spread to other regions so now there are barbatos and creator love stories about how they both disappeared together in hiding so they could be together

and some of the other nations got jealous so they ship the creator with their archon instead 😭😭

it's like an international debate on who the creator loves
___________

you were walking past the cathedral with venti

may barbatos and their holiness live forever in peace in the glory of celestia. and may the gods bless them as they watch over mondstadt for all of eternity and more.

❝ venti. ❞

❝ ... ❞

❝ why the fuck am i being shipped with you ❞

❝ it's a long story actually ❞

❝ i have time. ❞

___________

after waving venti off you wandered around mondstadt, to talk with the npcs.

❝ please, your excellency. save my sister. i hate having to search for coins in a fountain, so please, i repent for all of my sins i have committed, and pray for you to help us. ❞

the boy by the fountain begged you on his knees.

to be honest, you didn't know what to do. they expected some sort of supernatural power coming from you to heal his sister? you didn't even know how to do that. in the moment, you panicked and said:

❝ you have my blessing. ❞

the boy nodded and thanked you.

to be honest you didn't even know if that would do anything

___________

standing on the hands of the statue of barbatos, you looked out into the starry night sky of teyvat.

a hoax, a lie.

still, a beautiful one nonetheless.

placed into the skies was the beloved island of celestia. the supposed paradise superior to the mortal teyvat.

maybe one day it will be overthrown. but by whom? the archons? lumine? aether? you?

you imagined a red sky in replace of the usual blue skies, teyvat filled with war and suffering, dead corpses scattering the lands like unremovable filth in perfect silk. a repeat of the archon war.

xiao overtaken by his karmic debt, overtaking him. the archons being slaughtered by the abyss. the twins killing each other on opposite sides of battle. suffering. death.

everything that had been built falling to the merciless hands of discord and calamity.

for a creator, you were powerless to stop such a devastating a thing from happening.

and your presence itself was stirring things up.

if the stars are a hoax then what are their readings?

nothing is predictable in this fleeting dream of lies.

how will you ever know where the true future of teyvat remains?

___________

yet all of that is up to you. fate is in your control. it is not out of your reach, the end is decided by your judgment only.

teyvat bends to your will.

you wouldn't be the creator if it didn't

your blood is gold

and you will pay the sacrifice

teyvat's fate is in your hands

choose wisely

___________

those borne from the womb of their mother are indebted to you through their life. for that, they will repay you through their own loss and sufferings, their own price to pay for fighting

though, there are always exceptions.
