The Stars in Teyvat Are a Lie, and So Is the Sky by yueyunn
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
03 Dec 2023

Summary
There were several issues that Xiao immediately took with Ningguang’s proposition for him to produce for Barbatos: his other artists had upcoming comebacks and year-end stages that required his attention, he was overworked enough as it were already, and Ningguang was not exactly someone he was looking to do any favors for.
While her persistence to overlook all this was one matter, nothing aggravated him more than Ningguang completely ignoring the obstinate fact that he. doesn’t. work. with. idols.
And as far as Xiao was concerned, nothing was ever going to change that.
But all that glitters is not gold, and stage lights shine brighter than stars. There’s a lot more to a person than what hides behind the faces that they wear. It takes strength to face off against the delusions in the name of values and beliefs, but it is a different type of strength that it takes to come to face with the truth.
And as it turns out, the truth is that perhaps it wasn’t Barbatos who Xiao needed to confront so much as it was himself.

Summary
Wriothesley knows what he wants out of this, but Lyney still needs to buy into the bet. It feels a little like playing with his food, an exciting game of wit.
Shit, maybe Wriothesley really is just bored. But then this must be the cure: a prickly little kitten he can rile up and watch squirm.
A retelling of the fic Underdog, now from Wriothesley’s perspective.

Summary
In Lyney’s completely rational and wholly unbiased opinion, his first defeat at the hands of Wriothesley doesn’t come until three days after the near disaster at the Fortress.
Because losses, as everyone well knows, only count when the fight is fair.
5 times Wriothesley beats Lyney in a fight + 1 time Lyney finally wins.

Oh?

To Dream in Shades of Green by Intensely_Reading
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)

Summary
“There are three suitors who you can romance in this game. You must complete all your requirements with one of them."
“Who are the three potential suitors?” Kaveh asks warily.
“Your three suitors are Tighnari, the blunt Palace Chamberlain; Cyno, the standoffish Captain of the Royal Guard; and Al-Haitham, the acerbic Duke of Vultur Volans.”
There's a new invention from the Yae Publishing House that turns a user's dreams into light novel stories. Kaveh has the (un)fortunate pleasure of being one of its first users.
Too bad it dumped him in a romance game.

Summary
When Lynette is injured in rehearsal a day before the next episode of "Dancing with the Archons" goes live, Lyney is forced to step in as champion boxer Wriothesley's partner. It's a terrible match, with undeniable physical chemistry only fueling their mutual dislike as they attempt to work together despite their differences (and a few unfortunate similarities).
But what should be a temporary annoyance spirals into a viral sensation, and the unlikely duo find themselves dancing the line between hate and something else.Bookmarked by Slohy

Phantom Rosseland's Greatest Heist by Darkflowerofheaven
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
04 Oct 2023
Tags
Summary
How long had Aether been investigating and chasing after Phantom Rosseland? Too long to keep track of.
His targets were always the rich, noblemen and women too corrupt for society to catch and try for their hidden crimes.
Even then the only things stolen away was art and jewelry.
Aether wasn't expecting the Phantom Thief's pattern to change.

Pulcinella's Guide to PR and Marketing Strategies - Idol Edition by Bgtea
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
30 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
To say that Inazuma’s Mission is a disaster is putting it lightly. What happened in Inazuma is unequivocally a clusterfuck with a capital C, a shit storm of epic proportions not unlike the one raised by Osial himself during the Liyue Mission, which, coincidentally, also tanked the Fatui’s reputation. Dear Archons, it tanked the Fatui’s reputation so hard and so fast that Pulcinella will be lucky if he can manage to dredge up its shattered remains from the depths of the Earth in which it now lays.
Luckily, Pulcinella has a Plan to fix things, and it all starts with an old, black-and-white photo of Tartaglia in a glorious winter coat.

Summary
“So let me understand this correctly. The Fatui, the largest military force in Teyvat, widely feared for their ruthlessness and military prowess, need you to urgently deliver a baguette…to a poodle…named Baguette.”
He opened his mouth but was saved the embarrassment of nothing tumbling out of it but a comically long rope of multi-colored handkerchiefs when Lynette sat back up and waved a hand in front of herself as she pinched the bridge of her nose.
“Actually, no. Just no.”
Her chair screeched as she stood.
“You’re paying.”
As she walked away, he heard her mutter, “…I just…I can’t do this anymore. I’ll go get him and his fairy friend myself if he doesn’t show up soon.”
The Traveler arrives in Fontaine. Lyney is very normal and cool about this.
The Traveler meets a magician. Aether is super chill and laidback about this.
The Traveler gets a tour. Lynette wonders if Dawn Winery delivers dandelion wine by the cask.

Summary
“It’s you!” Paimon shouted with a twirl in mid-air.
“…Excuse me?"
They were drunk. Were they drunk? Was he drunk? Because Kaeya had the feeling his guests had been talking to him for a while now, but none of their words had made any sense whatsoever.
That was, until Venti stepped firmly in front of Kaeya’s desk and set his hands on the top, the better to lean over towards Kaeya and say: “For the end of the Windblume festival, Sir Kaeya Alberich, we’re going to auction a date with you.”

Of course, this easy escape doesn't last too long for Aether, as his past would soon catch up to him.

Summary
“Freedom, huh?” Cecili murmurs. “Is this what this is? Not having my memories—is that freedom?” He’s worrying the grass between his fingers, tearing out some of it in absentmindedness.
“For some, it might be,” Xiao says, echoing his earlier thoughts. “Do you think that’s what freedom means for you, Cecili?”The bard lets out a small, wry laugh. “What do I know of freedom,” he says, and watches as the grass blades drift away in the wind.
A stray amnesiac bard makes a home for himself in Qingce Village. Despite himself, Xiao visits, again and again.

Childe needs money bad, so his friend Diluc hooks him up at this place called “The Garden”, a telemarketing company where all he has to do is to pick up and answer clients’ calls. Yup. He can do that. Just a simple, normal, totally-not-a-sex-hotline job.
Cool beans.
Spoiler alert: His boss is fuckin’ hot and Childe wants to bang him. Not cool beans.

Summary
Tartaglia believed he had been killed at the battle in the Golden House. Yet, somehow, he wakes up to find a piece of yellow paper written in an ancient Liyuen script stuck on his forehead.
And for some reason... He feels compelled to obey orders from the child who works at Bubu Pharmacy.
(A Qiqi and Tartaglia centred fic. Other tagged characters and relationships get very substantial screentime too.)
