oneshot request by kazuhaaah

theme: them reacting to you being a fatui harbinger (with a high rank)

(fanart by Kuro on twitter!)

~~~~~~~~~~

Tighnari

-based on experience with Dottore, he would likely feel betrayed

-would ask you why you joined

-if you had a good reason, he'd accept it but would become a bit distant from you

-if you had a terrible reason, expect the worse

-overall, the damage would have been done and it wouldn't be the same (play As It Was bc if you can imagine this scenario, the tears are getting there)

Alhaitham

-genuinely surprised at first, and definitely would have a different opinion about you then, but overall would still give you kisses so who cares

-probs would become more skeptic of you, but would hide it and see what happens in the future (already has a backup plan)

-him and childe would honestly get along pretty well if you ever brought him to sumeru

-would undoubtedly hide you from the Akademiya or even the Traveler if you were in a relationship with him

-as long as you don't do anything too shitty y'all are good

-man lives in the moment and plans on worrying about why you're the third harbinger later

Collei

. . .

-will run away from you

-won't talk to you ever again

-forget forgiveness, she's legit traumatized what did you expect

Dehya

-it doesn't matter bc you're still her bby forever <3

-would ask why you joined, but knows you well enough that you did it for a good reason

-will ask you to put on your fatui outfit (for totally no reason at all... hehe...)

-(My Lady | Dehya is the place to go if y'all want a plot for this scenario [except in the oneshot you're the twelfth harbinger])

-overall, still loves you

-is a bit upset because she thinks you didn't trust her enough to tell her ages ago (will hide this emotion)

Cyno

-y'all are really angst-thirsty aren't you?

-(Falling Blindly | Cyno is the chapter to go to if you want the details bc the scenario is pretty similar to this one)

-in short (like him), he would think of you differently, and because he finds out that you're a high ranked harbinger, he would automatically suspect that you've done terrible things

-would normally turn anybody (regardless of who they are) in, but because you mean way too much to him, he lets you go just this once

-poor cyno would give up his position as general mahamatra because he thinks everything he's done for you was for nothing

-crying as silently as he could while Candace tries to cheer him up (keyword "tries")

-even his funny jokes can't cheer himself up (play along for his sake won't you?)

Nahida

-extremely surprised

-would also feel skeptic of you, and will research about you to find out what you've done

-figures out you're the third harbinger, and takes note of your crimes

-makes a deal with you: won't kick you out of sumeru as long as you don't cause trouble

-if you do cause trouble, she'll find a way to take back the gnoses from Dottore and ruin the Tsaritsa's plans

-you agree, as you've still got many other oneshots of you being a harbinger to see :))
