"Aether honey, fetch me my watering pail!" You call out to him, currently hunched over the seeds you had just planted in the soil. You both were doing some tending to the garden you had just recently started in your teapot, and you had just finished the planting process.
You hear the loud crashing and clunking of metal behind you, and you whip your head around to see Aether standing there, hands at his side and gaze focused on you.
"Are you okay?!" You ask, hurriedly rising to your feet to check on him.
"'Honey'...you called me 'honey,'" he breathes out, watching you. You blink once, twice, and then nod.
"I did, yes," you confirm.
His cheeks turn pink and he looks away, pulling his scarf up a bit in an attempt to hide his face. He clears his throat and bends down to grab the watering pail.
"I-I'll just go ahead and get this filled up with water for you," he mumbles and rushes off before you can say anything.

You and Ayato were walking around Inazuma City, soldiers trailing behind to watch over you two. You wanted to see what the merchants were selling, and perhaps say hi to a few old friends.
A jewel in a nearby stand catches your eye, and you drag Ayato over quickly.
"Darling, look! Wouldn't this ruby be beautiful in a necklace?" You coo, leaning down to get a closer look at it.
He falters a bit before he responds, almost taken by surprise by the pet name. Almost. He recovers quickly and responds with his own term of endearment.
"If it pleases my princess, you can have every jewel the owner is selling."
His voice is smooth and the nickname rolls off his tongue flawlessly, sending goosebumps down your back. You look back, eyes bright with excitement while your face is flushed with embarrassment. He gives you a polite smile, as if unaware of the effect of his words on you, and turns to the merchant to make the purchase.

The moon was high, shining through the night sky and down on Sumeru City. The activity was slowed and most everyone inside their homes, save for a few that clung to the shadows, hopeful to take advantage of unsuspecting passerbys. Word spread quickly that the General Mahamatra had returned home though, and those looking to cause trouble quickly dispersed.
"Y/N, I'm back," Cyno announces as he walks inside your home.
He sets aside his polearm and takes off his headpiece, setting it aside on a nearby table. You walk out of the kitchen, wrapped in a blanket and clutching a hot mug of tea in your hand. You smile and step closer to your partner.
"Welcome back Cyno. I trust you served justice well?" You ask, already knowing the answer.
He nods and leans forward, resting his head on your shoulder. You feel the weight of his work melt off upon touch and almost fall over due to him putting all his weight on you.
"Alright love, let's get you to bed," you gently chide, setting aside your mug.
He hums-- in delight you deduce, based on the high-range sound, but makes no move to pull away.
"That's new. Instead of cuddling a bed bug, it seems you'll cuddle a lovebug?"
You groan loudly and shove him off of you gently.
"Nevermind, sleep on the couch!"

You and Gorou were helping the soldiers on Watatsumi Island move the crates of supplies around. You'd been at it since sunrise and the fatigue was starting to eat at you. You drop a crate on the ground with an unceremonious thud and groan, rubbing your back. Gorou's ears pick this up and he instantly turns to you, also grabbing the attention of his fellow soldiers.
"Y/N? Are you alright?" He asks, eyebrows furrowed in concern.
He was easy to read-- his tail sways back and forth, kicking up the dirt and anxiety was clearly filling his body. Had he pushed you too hard? You weren't a member of the Kokomi's platoons so technically this wasn't your responsibility-- you had just offered. You wave him off, flashing him a tired smile.
" 's nothing baby. I just need to rest. I'll catch up, yeah?" You explain, slowly sitting down next to one of the crates.
Gorou's tail straightens out instantly, and he's frozen in his spot. His ears are erect and his eyes widen as red spreads across his face. The soldiers are quick to pick up on their general's embarrassment and they start teasing him. You watch on in amusement but say nothing, leaving your partner to defend himself.

"Heiiiizooooou," you whine loudly as you lay on the couch.
He said that he wouldn't take too long on analyzing some reports for a case he was working on, promising to give you attention shortly. A promise that was made about 45 minutes ago. He always got sucked into his work and while usually, you were fine with that, you were feeling extra clingy today.
"Yesssss Y/N?" He matches your tone, poking his head out from his office. You huff.
"You promised you wouldn't take long. Surely your case can wait an hour or two!" He tsks at you disappointedly, shaking his head.
"Patience is a virtue, Y/N. You have to learn how to exhibit it! You wouldn't want me to let this criminal escape, would you? Imagine all the harm they could cause to Inazuma, or to you! My sweet darling lover!" Heizou mock faints, pressing a hand on his head for dramatic effect, earning an eye roll from you.
"Are you saying you wouldn't be able to take them? Getting weak are we babe?" You gripe, crossing your arms.
He stops in his place and looks at you properly, green eyes blinking owlishly.
"What? Do I have something on my face?" You ask, bringing a hand up to your cheek. He shakes his head, face cracking into a grin.
"I'm your babe, am I?" He teases, slithering over. "Am I your honey bunny too? Your baby? Your sweet love bug and apple of my eye?" With each sickeningly sweet nickname he lists off, he applies more pressure on your body as he tickles you.
You squeal in surprise, kicking your legs in an attempt to get him away. Laughter fills the room and your pleas for him to stop are ignored in favor of hitting all your ticklish spots. In all the excitement, you fail to notice the shine in Heizou's eyes and the tips of his ears turning red.

You and Kaeya had decided to stop by Angel's Share for a drink and to harass Diluc while he worked. The bartender was as curt as ever to him, not letting the calvary captain's teasings get to him. He was always cordial with you though-- never giving you a hard time. He only ever seemed to express disappointment with you when asking about what you saw in his brother.
"I'm still confused about how he managed to secure you as a partner," Diluc questions, giving Kaeya an unimpressed glance.
Kaeya faux gasps quietly, pressing a hand to his chest.
"Diluc dearest, you wound me. I'll have you know that I am a delight and it was my shining personality that won Y/N," he announces matter-of-factly.
You giggle into your cup as the two of them break into a small argument over Kaeya's character. It was nothing serious-- anyone with eyes could tell neither brother was taking the argument seriously. When their gaze turned to you, you pop an eyebrow up.
"Y/N, do tell Diluc just how lovely I am!" He begs, playing up the theatrics.
You swirl your mug a bit, watching the amber liquid slosh around.
"He's my snowdrop, Diluc. He's quite special to me, and you wouldn't know it but he secretly is a big sweetie and-"
Before you can finish, Kaeya's hand is slapped over your mouth. You and Diluc both look over at the man who is now stumbling over his words, cheeks turning dark. He was not prepared to be gifted a nickname so soon, especially in front of his brother.
"I-I think he gets the idea, Y/N," he coughs into his other hand, slowly letting the one covering your mouth drop.
Diluc flashes him a teasing smile.
"I think I do, snowdrop."

u can go as far as u would like <333
Say no more babes 😏

(Nsfw) Indulging in You

Characters: Xiao x fem!Reader
Warnings: NSFW-- MDNI!!, dom-ish!Reader, Xiao knows little of physical intimacy, is this pwp??
WC: 1.9k words
Check out pt. 1 here! (sfw)

Hot....hot!
That's all Xiao could think. Somehow during the kiss, you both managed to stumble your way to a secluded part of the harbor. Hands exploring each other's bodies, bodies pressed against each other-- that familiar overwhelming and suffocating feeling came back. And he wanted more.
He shudders as you pull away, trailing your tongue down his jaw and to his neck. His heartbeat thumps like a war drum, and he swears the coy smile curling on your lips means you can hear it too.
"You've never had sex before, have you?" you ask, startling him. Your gaze is powerful and unwavering, something he's grown to appreciate about you. In moments like this though, it reminds him of how powerless he seems to be to you.
"No-- I've had no need for something so unnecessary," he finally answers, and you stifle a giggle.
"You would say that. But is that so wrong?" You muse, using your hand to trace shapes on his torso. The yaksha tenses, feeling your perfectly trimmed nails slowly draw further and further south. Instinctively, he grabs your wrist, holding your hand in place.
"What are you doing?" Xiao hisses, casting a wary glance around your environment. It was empty-- everyone was above where the festivities are being held. That didn't quell his anxiety.
"You're as stiff as a tree trunk. You need to relax," you reply, watching him carefully.
His will was cracking-- a part of him was screaming that this was ridiculous. To push you away and run. Yakshas do not need intimacy, after all. However, deep down, a part of him craves your touch. This closeness. The warmth of your lips on him and the rush of energy he felt from having your body against him, perfectly slotted together like puzzle pieces-- it was exhilarating. And he wanted more-- if his throbbing erection was anything to go off of.
"If you aren't comfortable, I can stop," you say carefully, getting his attention back on you. He cursed himself for his silence and relaxes his grip on your wrist.
"No. I want you. Forgive my hesitance," he explains. You give him a wary stare but decide he's being genuine.
"Let's go somewhere more comfortable then, hm?"
✦✧✦✧
Clothes were strewn around the room, leaving you in your panties and Xiao in his pants. He lays on the bed with you straddling him, hands splayed on his chest. You both say nothing for a while, only hearing the soft hoots of the owls outside. Your silence bothers him-- he fears his earlier hesitance has made you uninterested in sharing this moment with him. Perhaps he should've been more forthcoming about his desires. Or perhaps-
"I can see your mind racing miles an hour, Xiao," you interrupt his thinking. "Relax."
You lean down, giving him a chaste kiss.
"I have no intention of going far. I'd hate to overwhelm you," you explain, but the teasing tone in your voice tells him you'd find that entertaining.
"Then what are you-!" The feeling of your hand pressing on his clothed dick sends a shiver down his spine. Your smile widens as you palm it slowly, feeling the wet spot on his boxers growing more prominent. Quiet whines slip out his mouth, and they go straight to your heat, feeling it clenching around nothing in excitement.
But your pleasure wasn't important right now. Your focus is on getting the Yaksha to succumb to pleasure. You apply more pressure, and Xiao's whines turn into a low moan. His face flushes in surprise, and he reaches up to cover his mouth. You stop him with your other hand, smiling.
"No no, please don't hide those sounds from me. I want to hear more," you goad. You slide your hand under his pants before he can protest, wrapping it around his half-hard cock. Xiao gasps at the sudden sensation, but his movements don't slow you down at all.
You give it a cautious squeeze, and he bucks his hips, letting out a strangled moan. Licking your lips, you continue to squeeze his dick rhythmically, and the yaksha's moans roll off his tongue like a song, whiny and almost out of breath. Pre-cum dribbles out of the tip, coating your hand. You gather some up, using it as a lubricant, and begin pumping his length.
"Hah...t-that," he breathes out, gritting his teeth. This feeling was oh-so foreign, but oh-so intoxicating. He couldn't tell if he wanted more or if this was perfect. His nerves felt on fire, and his body felt hot compared to the cool room. His thighs strained as he tried to still his hips, and you can feel his cock growing longer and more stiff at the stimulation. He can taste iron on his tongue-- the gnawing at his lip had turned it raw and he had broken skin.
More. More. He needed more. His balls felt heavy, ready to explode, and copious amounts of pre-cum was dribbling down his length, coating your hand. He felt a tugging in his stomach which tightened with every swipe of your thumb over his angrily red tip. It was like something was trying to come out and the more you touched him the sooner it would happen.
"I-I'll..hn..I'm going to-" he starts whimpering, almost at the edge of this feeling of euphoria. Walls were crumbling and waves were about to crash. It was like a blinding light-
And then it was gone. He looks at you disheartened as you pull your soaked hand away from his throbbing cock. His chest rises and falls as he struggles to catch his breath-- he's scared if he tries to speak it won't come out strong. It felt like he was falling back down into the chasm, feeling empty at the sudden loss of contact.
"Don't look so crestfallen, Alatus. You'll get what you're seeking soon," you assure him. He shoots you a half-heartened glare as he watches you adjust your position and slowly lower yourself.
"What are you-?!" Interrupted once more, this time by your warm mouth taking in his cock. He throws his head back, letting out the most pornographic moan known to man. You hollow your cheeks, wasting no time as you start bobbing your head up and down his leaking cock. The pre-cum aids your speed as you suck and slurp at his length.
He praises you, begs you to keep going. To not slow down. Right there. Pleasepleaseplease. He's desperate, watching you use your mouth on him. Were you really an Adeptus? He felt like you were a succubus, with how intoxicating and tantalizing you were. Your tongue wrapped around whatever it could, drinking up the salty but sweet taste of Xiao's essence. When you pulled up to focus on the tip, he almost came right then and there. You sucked on the furious tip, tongue flicking at the slit, and he swore he saw white.
The familiar tugging feeling was creeping on him again, and he felt the waves crashing against the walls, begging to be sent tumbling down. If you kept this up, he'd have no choice but to cum. And he desperately sought out that feeling. He needed to know what was on the other side.
But like last time, his pleasure was cut short as you pulled away from his length with a pop. He growls, his frustration building up. He seeks release and there you were, someone he loved and was enamored with, taking it away at just the last moment.
"You're being an awful tease," he complains, watching as you sit up properly on the bed.
"All in good time. I'm glad to see that I'm making you feel good though," you hum. You crawl up again and lean down, kissing Xiao once more. He can taste himself once more. Salty. It's not repulsive, even if it's from his own body, and he returns your kiss. You use it as an opportunity to push your panties to the side, revealing your glistening cunt. Carefully you line it up with his cock, which stood at attention-- thick, red, and shining.
You pull away from his lips, watching him in adoration and a tinge of obsession.
"This time, I won't stop. I want you to cum inside me," you command, and before he can react, you drop yourself onto his dick, immediately feeling it fill you up.
You both moan in unison-- his cock was girthy and long, curving up as it filled you up perfectly. A thin vein that rain up from the base to the tip rubbed against your walls, and you wanted to cry at the pressure. Xiao felt any lingering tension crumble away as your wet walls sucked him in. He could feel it clenching around him, warm and inviting, and he figures if he was still at the edge of an orgasm, he would've cum right there.
Soon, you raise your hips and start bouncing on Xiao's length, and more moans tumble out your lips. Xiao watched in awe as you worked his length, bouncing and twisting your hips in a steady motion. Wet slapping noises filled the room, and he could feel how you gushed all over his cock. The creamy ring of white soon formed at the base, and your moans both reached a point of breathlessness.
Too much...too much! Not knowing what to do, he grabs your hips in an attempt to slow you down, but it's futile. You had the upper hand, and you were more than able to control your speed how you wanted. You were sending both of you hurtling toward your climaxes.
And he could feel it too. The tugging was the strongest he ever felt, and he was thrusting his hips up in time with you, matching your rhythm. You feel his dick press against a rough spot inside you, and you keen, wailing desperately.
"T-there...shit, I'll cum at this rate," you whine, and this lights something in Xiao. He digs his nails into your hips and slowly gets a little edge in, pooling his strength to start guiding you up and down his cock. You don't fight it-- you give in happily, moaning his praises. Your names are like mantras you both chant as you slip closer and closer to the edge until-
His thrusts become more erratic and right as he teeters off the edge, he moans out your man, thrusting up one last time as he holds you down flush against him. You both moan as you cum together, bodies trembling as the orgasm washes over you both. You whimper as you feel his hot seed flood inside you, soon filling you up as some of it drips out. Xiao can't help himself, the feeling of your walls squeezing and milking him for every last drop pushing him into higher planes of euphoria.
After a few moments of silence, you both relax, and you slump against his body, resting your head on his chest. Nothing but your breaths can be heard as your bodies recover from the exhilarating high. Words finally find their way back into your mouth, and you manage to speak.
"Still feels unnecessary?" you tease, but he bucks up into you in response, forcing you to squeak.
"No," he breathes out, and his hands slide up your body. "But it seems I crave more."
Your breath hitches as you realize Xiao's dick was still very much hard-- it hadn't softened a bit.
"I'm going to indulge in you just a little more."

Thank you so much for 500 followers! It means the world to me ❤️
Ima be real with you, i usually write/read sub and bottom!reader so i dunno if this qualifies as dom reader in the slightest but that's why the warning is there.
Requests (both sfw and (nsfw) are open~!

Can I request playing with tighnari's ears while cuddling and hearing him purr for the first time?🙏

(Sfw) Petting his Ears

Characters: Tighnari x GN!Reader
Warnings: pinch of suggestiveness at the end
WC: ~0.7k words

"Tighnari, don't you have research you wanted to work on?"
"Mn, I do. But that can wait."
The normally dutiful forest ranger has been reduced to a lazy slump today. One to rise with the sun, Tighnari has instead elected to stay in bed with you, laying on top of you with his face buried in your chest. It's not an unwelcome moment of course-- any time you can spend with him is cherished.
Clad in a thin shirt and loose pants, you can feel the warmth of his body against yours, and the familiar hum of vitality that courses through his veins, no doubt a result of his dendro vision. His tail acts like a small blanket, covering your legs in a thick coat of fur.
"You said it was important! That's why you said we couldn't visit Port Ormos to go shopping-- you didn't want to delay for a single moment," you complain.
Tighnari sighs, and you giggle from the ticklish feeling of his breath on your chest.
"We all need a break some days. I've decided to choose today!"
You roll your eyes, bringing your hands up to play with his hair.
"Fine, but don't complain if you get an earful from your fellow rangers!"
You leave it at that, curling strands around your fingers. A comfortable silence fills the room once more as you both relish in each other's company. You glance down, noticing the way Tighnari's ears twitch in front of your face. Out of curiosity, and in a trance, you carefully move your hands up to touch them.
Instantly, Tighnari tenses, and his breath hitches. You jerk your hands back in surprise, glancing down at him. Despite his clear tension, he says nothing, waiting for your next move. Taking his silence as permission, you resume touching his ears, methodically rubbing your fingers along the coarse fur and the smooth inner ear.
As this goes on, the fox-hybrid's body starts to shake, and he presses his face harder against your chest, forcing a gasp out of you. Tighnari's tail curls up tightly, exposing your legs to the bare air, and you feel his clawed hands grip your shirt tightly. A part of you wants to stop, not wanting to make your boyfriend seemingly more uncomfortable, but the other, more teasing side of you, enjoyed seeing him act like this. Embarrassed and like a nervous kit-- it was a sight you didn't see often.
And then you heard it. A soft rumbling sound, accompanied by steady vibrations against your chest. Purring.
You both freeze in place, surprised by this new development. Tighnari can feel his skin get clammy in anxiety as he realizes what he's done. He curses himself mentally-- he hadn't planned on letting that slip out. His attempts to tense his body were futile.
"Y-you didn't hear anything. That wasn't-" Before he can try to defend himself, you're going back to rubbing and petting his ears, cooing in delight. A surprise attack that has him devolving into a cuddly pile as he lets more purrs slip out.
"You're so cute Tighnari~ I can't believe you purr! Why didn't you tell me sooner?" you gush over him, not letting him get a word in edgewise. Not like he could talk even if he wanted to-- your fingers are tactical, brushing over all of the most sensitive spots, turning him into mint jelly.
What normally was a source of agitation when touched by others, was now a weapon of dominance against him, if the rhythmic movements of his tail on the bed were any indication. He feels like a kit, unable to control his more animalistic urges. Perhaps I should've gotten out of bed earlier. I've been reduced to something short of a slime!
He peeks up at you and any thoughts of stopping you dissipate like steam off a flaming flower. Seeing your elated, childlike wonder-filled expression at the new discovery makes him less willing to pull away and scold you for touching his ears. You were just too damn happy about this, and if there's one thing he prioritizes over his dignity, it's your happiness. He sighs and buries his face back into your chest, allowing you to continue unhindered.
He supposes he'll let it slide this time. He just hopes you can take responsibility for the feelings that arise as a result of this intimate moment. It is getting close to that time of the year after all.

I like to think that depending on what vision you have, your body changes/reacts accordingly. After all, years of manipulating the elements have got to change your physiology somehow, right? So for dendro users, they just radiate energy. If you stand next to them, it's like taking a breath of fresh air and feeling invigorated. They feel alive if that makes sense.
Requests (both sfw and nsfw) are open~!

Simple. I am down HORRENDOUS

I may do another smau for another character (if not just a regular fanfiction series) but we'll see.
but diluc is my #1 forever and ever even if i don't have him yet

4 - 𝓞𝓱…𝓨𝓸𝓾 𝓡𝓮𝓶𝓮𝓶𝓫𝓮𝓻?

The rest of the day was spent doing bonding activities with each other and trying to beat the summer heat. Friendships were created or strengthened, and friendly rivalries were started. Before long, it was time for the foreign schools to head back to their countries so the students could rest. Everyone bid their farewells and the Mondstadt students watched as the buses drove off.
Seeing as it was their home turf, you all were tasked with cleaning up after everyone-- picking up trash, putting materials and instruments away, and preparing for next week. As the sun slowly fell over the horizon, you can feel fatigue start to creep in. You opt to take a break, finding refuge near a tree off to the side.
You sit down on the grassy ground, resting against the wide tree trunk, and close your eyes, focusing on your environment. The trees rustle as a gentle breeze blows by, and you can hear the faint chatter of your other classmates talking away as they clean. The calm of the environment was soothing, and you can feel the tension from earlier slowly evaporate.
You stay there for some time, maybe 15 minutes, and you feel the fatigue transform into drowsiness. Just as sleep is about to take over and rock you into the realm of dreams, a voice grabs your attention.
"There you are. Amber was getting worried about you," Diluc comments.
You force your eyes open, blinking away the sleep that was creeping into them.
"I was barely gone," you mumble, placing your hands on your knees as you force yourself up.
"It's getting dark-- only normal to be concerned." He looks back at the students on the field. "You alright?"
You stare at him, furrowing your eyebrows in confusion.
"Earlier. You looked like you were going to punch him had I not stopped you when I did," he presses on. Your mouth forms an 'o' shape and you nod, rubbing your neck.
"Yes, I'm fine. Thanks for asking." You bite your lip. "And thank you for pulling me away when you did."
Diluc gives you a small smile and reaches down to grab the bag of trash you had set aside.
"Perhaps I should be glad that you were not so angry back in the cafe to punch me in the face," he jokes, and you feel your cheeks turn hot.
"T-that was my mistake. I apologize," you mumble, and his smile widens.
"I think you already apologized when ended up passed out on Lisa's couch cuddling."
You choke on air, watching the man bewildered. You thought he had forgotten!
"How did you...I thought you didn't remember?"
"Truth be told, I didn't. I caught a glimpse of Venti's story and saw the picture."
You wanted the ground to swallow you up whole right there, or for an archon to strike you down where you stand. This wasn't happening. It couldn't be happening.
Sensing your internal conflict, Diluc is quick to comfort you.
"Listen, I don't care really. We were both drunk and it's not like we did anything stupid," he reasons, shrugging. "I'm willing to move on if you are."
"Please, I beg. Let us never speak of it again."
Diluc chuckles, and you swear you feel your heart stop. It's short-lived and not necessarily special, but there's something comforting about the fact you made him laugh, even just a tiny bit.
"As you wish. Shall we head back with everyone?"
