Venti

★To Venti, he had never found the need for you to speak. your presence was already loud and comforting as it is

★Venti loves the small moments when you get excited or amazed at something he’s done, albeit having seen him do it for the umpteenth time, how you would run over to him and give him the biggest hug after he defeats an unexpected monster

★He’d have the wind knocked out of his lungs as you embrace him tightly, beaming at how amazing he was with his bow, and Venti would chuckle and hug you back just as tight to return the gesture

★The bard enjoys sitting by the tree in Windrise and watches you excitedly pick out flowers to replace the one on his beret. Being the teasing person he was, he would refuse to give it to you at first, holding it up high or placing it behind his back out of reach

★Which would spike the competitive person in you, dropping the flowers and give him a challenging glare as if saying are you sure you’re going to do this?, and Venti would take a couple steps backwards and grin, causing you to break into a run and chase him across the grassy field

★The knights that would be around the area who were supposed to be on the lookout for hilichurl camps once had to check on you due to how loud Venti had screamed when you successfully tackled him down on thankfully soft grass, grabbing his beret in triumph, before looking down at him and shaking with immense laughter at his messy hair

★You would roll over to his side, clutching at his beret so he wouldn’t challenge you again, shoulders shaking as you curl into yourself with laughter, remembering the way Venti screamed and finding it absolutely hilarious

★Initially, Venti would be worried as he looks at you who was curled in fetal position, shoulders shaking and thinking you were injured and hurt

★Only for you to reassure him you were absolutely fine by sitting up and shaking your head, wiping the tear that had escaped. Venti breathes a sigh of relief when he sees the smile on your face, finding it the most captivating

 Childe

★Actions speak louder than words, and that was what Childe wholeheartedly believes with you

★You were caring in your small actions. before his voyages, he would be waking up to see you preparing him food (no matter what time he had to leave or no matter if he had told you what time he leaves either, he sometimes wonder if you even sleep)

★It gets to a point where whenever he returns, the first thing you would be expecting is you running into his arms for a hug every single time

★And this time was just the same, with you run up to hug him after another successful trip, nuzzling into his chest and fingers tightening behind him to express how worried you had been when you received his letter stating that he might be returning a couple days late the morning before, seeing him battered and bruised, but having a genuine smile the moment his eyes fell on your tear-stricken ones

★Childe would cup your face in his palm and coo at how cute you were, and you’d sniffle and push his hands away

★Only to give him a hard smack and pull at his ear for worrying you pointing at him accusingly because oh you just knew he had probably ran into a hilichurl camp or abyss mages without second thinking, knowing how irrational he becomes whenever he sees an opportunity to jump into battle

★You were always one to care for both him and Tonia, to which he’d tease and claim you were like a parent to him. but in all honesty, he was extremely grateful to have someone like you, you were the few people Childe trusts with everything

★Whenever you have dinner together, you would always urge Childe to tell about his stories on his voyages despite him wanting to know about your day, you would always claim that yours were always boring with a shake of your head, and insist on listening to his instead

★And when he does, you pay attention well, he finds your bright eyes and nods after every two sentences precious, and every time he gets to the climax of his stories where he fights monsters, your expressions would always make him laugh. 

★Wide eyes and gaping mouth, always in disbelief at how the playful and sweet Fatui was always so ruthless and able to take down and manipulate people in a matter of seconds

★Childe had never minded you being mute because ultimately, you were always able to be loud in other, much endearing ways
