Thief no more
(Y/HC) hair, messy and wild. Simple clothing, dirty and torn. Stomach empty, begging to be filled as soon as possible. Their life on the streets wasn't easy, but they survived by taking things that weren't theirs. They didn't like to steal, they couldn't even be proud of themself when they managed to get away with stealing twice as much they usually got.
Which should be considered an accomplishment, seeing they barely managed to get their little hands on anything at all.
Now that they thought about it, it actually had been quite some time since anyone spotted them. Or someone did, but just ignored them. Who would want to help such an useless little thing anyway? Their parents definitely didn't, having abandoned their child for not learning as fast as the neighbor kid.
The (Y/EC) eyed clutched their kryo vision in their scrached hand, the kryo archon seemed to be the only one seeing and understanding them.
The rumbling of their stomach made them grit their teeth to prevent themself to bend over from the pain. They were so incredibly hungry...
Just for a moment, it seemed for them, they felt dizzy and their vision got blurry. So as they looked straight ahead and waited for their eyes to focus again, they were surprised to suddenly see a bag laying on a bench. The person that seemed like the owner was just walking a few steps away from said bench to talk to someone.
It seemed like the perfect opportunity for the child.
---
Their little legs carried them for what seemed like forever, but kept begging the (Y/HC)-haired to stop as they ached with every step, every turn. They were sure someone noticed them, the dizziness prevented them from concentrating and they weren't ready to face the owner of the stolen item if they were caught.
As soon as the child found a place to hide in an alley with a dead end, they let themself fall to the ground. Only the gods knew how the child managed to live like this.
They didn't even wait to catch their breath, immediately emptying the bag in hopes of finding something edible...
...but there was nothing.
Their shaky breath echoed through the alley, soon followed with wild sobs as they completely gave up on life in that very moment.
They wrapped their twitching arms around themself and pulled their bloody knees to their chest. They didn't even realise they hurt themself when they fell to the ground, but they didn't care.
No one wanted them anyways.
(Bennett)
"Arrrgggh! Come on! Why now??", the white haired groaned out as he ran after the child who stole his bag.
Bennett was just about to go on an adventure! It was just his luck that he got robbed right then and there. He nearly screamed out of frustration, but kept calm. He knew he had to keep cool in order to find his stuff.
He soon realized his thief ran a bit wobbly and it wasn't hard to follow them.
"There you are!", Bennett exclaimed with a finger pointed at the child, a gasp following soon after, "Oh my!" He quickly made his way over to them, carefully laying a hand on their shoulder.
They didn't even flinch anymore.
Bennett made note of their current state and pondered on what to do for a few seconds before speaking, "Hey... I'm here to help, okay?"
No response.
"...Are you awake...?"
---
"Ngh..."
Bennett's eyes sparkled with joy when he heard noises from the (Y/HC)-haired and saw them stirr slightly. "Thank Barbatos!", he exclaimed a bit too loudly for the child's liking.
They soon woke up completely, eyes darting back and forth, trying to make out their surroundings. It appeared they were inside an unfamiliar room, maybe some kind of infirmary? They certainly laid in a bed with white sheets.
The child wasn't given much time to ponder about the many questions in their head as Bennett proceeded to shove a plate, filled with a steak and some salad, into their face. "Here you go! Eat up, little one!"
The kid slowly sat up and frowned at the other, both sceptical and surprised of the current situation.
First off: Why does the person they stole from help them?
And second: Why would anyone want to help them?
The (Y/HC)-haired came to the conclusion they were dead. But the sudden pain in their stomach made them scratch that idea immediately.
But that made them even more confused.
Meanwhile, Bennett was staring at them with worry in his eyes, "You barely eat anything, don't you? Heck...you probably don't even have a proper roof over your head.", he mumbled the last part to himself before urging the younger one to eat once again.
With shaky hands, the child finally reached out for the plate, only letting it rest on their lap for a second before practically inhaling the food.
That made the young adventurer smile brightly, "There you go."
Once the plate was empty, Bennett took it back and placed it on a nearby table before scooting closer to the child on the wooden chair he sat on. "Feeling better?", he asked so wholeheartedly, that it made the child wonder once again if this was really happening.
It made their little heart swell up with hope. Maybe there were actually people who cared for them.
They nodded and smiled at him, "Thank you...", their voice came out scratchy and quietly, but it was enough for Bennett to hear.
"No worries, really! You know, I was once alone as well, but then I was taken in by adventurers.", Bennett laid a hand on their shoulders, "And, and I'm sure this is very sudden, but, if you are in need of a home, a family, I'm sure my Dads have a spot in their hearts for you too. They are pretty amazing!"
(Diluc)
"Master Diluc, your bag!"
Diluc immediately turned around, his crimson eyes locking with the ones of his thief for just a split second before they disappeared into the increasing crowd of the city streets. The red-haired frowned at the pain in the other's eyes before turning back to Charles, "I'll be right back. Please go order a meal at Good Hunter, anything is fine."
Charles, even though he was slightly confused about his boss' request, nodded, "Sure."
And with that, Diluc turned on his heels to run after the child.
He began to slow down once he got to a less busy part of the streets and looked around, looking for a possible hiding place the child would most likely chose to hide in since Diluc was certain his thief wasn't able to keep running for long.
And he was right.
As he walked closer to the entrance of an alley, the sounds of uncontrolled breathing reached his ears, making him lay a hand on the edge of the wall and take a look inside the alley. Diluc bit his inner cheeks at the miserable state the child was in, they were still so young...
The red-haired began to walk deeper into the alley, careful as to not scare the child too much.
It didn't take long for the child to notice the approaching adult, making them pull their knees further against their chest. They only assumed the owner of the bag was the one who found them, so they mustered all their leftover strenght to apologize.
"I-I-I'm so sorry, sir! I know I'm a disgrace, I- shouldn't have-", their own shaking made it difficult to speak, but even if it didn't, their voice only came out scratchy, having not used their voice for a long time.
Diluc knelt infront of them and started to put the items back in the bag, "Hush, it's good that you acknowledge that steling is bad, but you are by no means a disgrace.", when Diluc was done, he took the bag in one hand and tapped the child's arm with the other.
The unexpected warmth of Diluc's voice made them tense up slightly, and the tap on their arm made them look up, into the crimson eyes of the other. Though Diluc had no smile on his face, it held no annoyance or anger in it, but a soft and understanding expression.
"Come, a friend of mine ordered some food for you."
---
The child was sitting on one of the chairs of Good Hunter with their legs dangling over the left side while Diluc cleaned and bandaged the wounds on their knees.
Meanwhile they munched on the Tea Break Pancakes like a wolf.
"So that's why...", Charlse had muttered to himself when Diluc first came into view with that poor child.
After Diluc was done with patching up, he stood back up and watched the child eat, finally relaxed. He had actually seen them around quite a few times, but only in the most inconvenient of situations. That way, when he finally had the chance to look for the child, they were nowhere to be seen.
Once the child finished their food, they let out a satisfied sigh, they have missed the feeling of being full for so long. It actually made the usual stoic man smile just a little bit.
But it was gone as quickly as it came, right in time to not be seen by the child themself as they turned to look at him with teary eyes and a big smile of their own, "Thank you so much...!"
Diluc only shook his head and ruffled their already messy hair, "Not for that, little one....I won't let you be all by yourself...", he didn't mean to say the last bit out loud, but luckily it came out in a whisper.
"I'll be taking them home now.", the red-haired stated, looking at Charles who only nodded. "Have a nice evening, master Diluc!"
The child looked up at Diluc in confusion, "I don't...have a home...", they muttered, but Diluc shook his head again and took their little hand in his gloved one, "Now you do."
(Venti)
"Oh, no! My bag!"
Believe it or not, Venti actually hoped this would happen. Even though he hasn't been in Monstadt for a very long time, he quickly pick up on the people in need within the tall walls around the city. And that little child was no exception to this, quite on the contrary.
Venti tried on multiple occasions to get a conversation going with them, but they always ran away from him. The only thing he could do to help was leaving food at places he saw the child hide in before. Which is a good idea looking at the surface, but the dogs and cats that wandered around the streets made it difficult to work out the way Venti hoped for.
So while he pondered about another way to help the homeless child, he made sure to give them an opportunity to steal his bag. That way they were forced to communicate with him, once he manages to catch them. It was definitely not Venti's favorite option, but it was one.
Discarding the light conversation he had with a drink buddy of his, he run after the thief, already rehearsing how to approach them in his head.
At last, he found them cowering in a corner of a deadend of an alley. He halted for just a moment before he started to walk towards the child, pulling out his lyre to play a relaxing melody. It soon overplayed and soothed the child's hectic breathing, but left them confused.
Pulling their brows together, they lifted their head from their arms at looked at the source of the music. Their eyes widened upon recognizing Venti as the owner of the bag they stole, but they couldn't bring themself to say something, or move a muscle.
Venti smiled warmly at them and plucked at the last few strings that ended the song, "Hehe, hello there, little one!"
The child just kept on staring at the other, wasn't he supposed to yell at them? Punish them?
The anemo archon knelt down before the child, "It's nice to finally meet you!" Venti's voice was as cheery as always, full of friendliness.
Venti then pulled out a box out of nowhere, leaving the child stunned, almost as if they were not close to dying at that very moment. The blue-eyed had to chuckle at that.
"As long as that sparkle in your eyes doesn't disappear, so won't the happiness you're are bound to experience in the future."
Giggling to himself once again, he watched the child eyeing the box as he opened it, revealing freshly baked cookies.
The (Y/EC) eyes of the child widened in recognition and their mouth began to water.
"Take as many as you'd like!"
---
The two of them soon made their way to get proper food and new clothing for the child. The (Y/HC)-haired kept looking up at Venti as they held hands, still confused, but so so so happy. As the day came to an end and Venti still didn't let go of their hand and said 'goodbye', tears began to forn in their eyes.
"You didn't think I'd just leave, did you? Hehe, no, you're stuck with me now!"
TEYVAT ACADEMY - amazing senpai
warning: a little angst at the end
"- and then he said 'do you think I'm afraid?' and then- then he just did it! ”a fair-haired student excitedly told his friend.
Bennet and Razor paced the school halls waiting for the break to end. The green-eyed boy told his long-haired friend stories he had heard from his "fathers". Razor walked beside him, nodding silently to show that he was listening.
Everything was fine until they had to go down the stairs. This is where Bennett's unprecedented bad luck manifests itself.
The fair-haired boy suddenly stepped on the untied shoelace and leaned forward, not even having time to grab on onto something. Bennett was mentally prepared to fall, but the only thing he felt was not pain but a hand wrapped around his waist.
"Everything's okay?" he heard a smooth voice behind him. He did not have time to turn around when the gray-haired student approached him, grabbing his arm.
"Is Bennett ok?" asked Razor with concern in his voice.
"Huh? Oh y-yeah, I'm fine!" he replied and straightened as he realized that the mysterious person was still holding him to keep him from falling off the stairs. When he turned around, he saw a h/c-haired student with e/c eyes, holding a briefcase in one hand. "They grabbed me with one hand ?!"
"If everything is okay then I'll go. Be careful." they said and left.
Bennett stood there for a moment, stunned.
"Something is wrong?" the red-eyed boy asked looking at his friend.
"Razor, do you know who it was?! It was Y/N! The Y/N!"
". . . Razor don't get it." student said confused.
"They are the secretary of 'Celestia'!" he said excitedly. "I can't believe I was so lucky to talk to them."
"But you didn't even say anything-"
"And they helped me too! Can you believe that, Razor?" Bennett continued, ignoring his friend's words. The long-haired boy only sighed and listened to the words of the excited green-eyed unlucky student.
***
"Aw man! All seats are taken." the fair-haired boy said. "Not that I wasn't expecting it haha" he laughed awkwardly.
There was a lunch break. Bennett and Razor were standing in the middle of the food cafeteria and wanted to sit down at the table. Unfortunately, they were all occupied. It happened to them quite often, but Bennett always hoped that someday they would find some not taken seats so that they could eat in peace. They were about to head towards the exit to look for a place to eat their lunches when they heard someone calling them.
"Oh, Bennett and Razor. Here, take a seat. A group of students just left." it was none other than Y/N.
The two walked towards them and sat down at the table.
"Thank you." said the first long-haired student. Looking at the face his friend was making, he knew he wouldn't do it first. There were sparkles in his green eyes.
"No problem. I had to sit down somewhere anyway." the h/c-haired responded calmly.
"Y-You know our names?" Bennett said quietly.
"Yes, is there anything weird about that?" they asked surprised.
"Well, you're a second-grader, aren't you? And you are in 'Celestia'!" Bennett started. "A-And you are so cool and all. And we are just normal first-graders."
At the compliment, the student looked away trying to act cool and somehow hide their blush.
'I-I can't take it. He's too cute-'
The rest of the lunch break, Bennett talked about how amazing Y/N is and how much he admires them. If you asked them, it was very difficult for student to prevent the heat from spreading over their cheeks.
***
Usually, the fair-haired first grader didn't care so much about his bad luck. After all, he had Razor, Fischl and many other people with him.
But today it was really bad.
Both of his closest friends were unable to attend school for some private reason. He spent most of his time alone because other students were afraid to approach him because of bad luck. Although it happened sometimes, it was today that the green-eyed felt this loneliness more.
Although he was aware of the influence of bad luck on his life, he most often pushed these emotions aside, trying to think optimistically. Bennett really was doing his best.
But today . . . he was just tired.
"Bennett, can you take it to school council room?" asked him his math teacher during one of the lessons.
"Yes of course." he replied without his usual enthusiasm.
The fair-haired student took a pile of papers from the teacher and walked towards the mentioned room.
On the way, he began to feel unpleasant thoughts that, due to his misfortune, his current friends would also leave him. 'Just like they did. . . ' he thought. He really didn't want to be alone, but he was afraid that someday they might get hurt.
The thought was too much . . . overwhelming for him.
The green-eyed boy did not notice that a familiar person had just come out from around the corner, who also did not notice that someone was walking straight towards them. Unfortunately, this resulted in an unpleasant collision that caused both of them to fall. The papers Bennett was holding scattered all over the floor.
'It couldn't get any worse . . . '
"Bennett, are you okay?" asked the h/c-haired older student, who turned out to be the person he ran into.
'It could get worse . . .'
"I'm s-sorry . . . " his breath hitched a little. 'No, stop. I can't cry right now-'
"Huh? It's ok. I should be watching where I'm going-" they stopped when they heard quiet snifle.
Although they could not see the boy's eyes through the hair that covered them, single tears ran down his cheeks, stopping on his chin and dripping on the ground. Y/N didn't really know what to say or do. They were not the best at comforting others and were afraid to say anything that would make the situation worse.
In the head of the green-eyed student though, there was a lot of thoughts and scenarios about what will happen next. Will they just leave without saying a word? Maybe they'll start laughing at him? 'Why I started crying now?!'
However, nothing he thought about happened.
He felt a hand on the back of his head that gently pushed him forward until he was leaning against the shoulder of the e/c-eyed student.
"It's all right. Let it out." they whispered.
For the next few minutes they sat there, the only sound being Bennett's soft sob. They didn't ask for anything, just sat in one place, running a hand through the boy's fair hair. They didn't need to ask.
After Bennet calmed down a little, Y/N spoke up.
". . . Sorry, I'm not good with words."
"I-It's okay . . . Thank you." he said, stepping back a little without being brave enough to meet their eyes.
Then he suddenly remembered that both of them were still on the ground and that there were scattered documents next to them.
"Ah, sorry! I was supposed to take it to-" he began panicked.
"Don't worry, I know. Let's just pick them up and take them to class." the older student interrupted him with small reassuring smile.
In response, the boy nodded and, after wiping his still wet cheeks, began to help collect the pages.
After a short time they reached the room. In the center was a round table with eight chairs. There were many cupboards along the walls. There was also a small kitchenette with a fridge and coffee machine.
"You can leave them on the table." said the h/c-haired student as they put down their papers. "Do you want tea?" they asked.
"What? I guess I have to go back to class because the teacher-" he began to say. He didn't want to cause Y/N any more problems.
"Oh, don't worry. I'll tell him later that I needed your help, so you didn't go back to class." they said winking. "Besides, I have some free time now. And no, you aren't bothering me." they added turning on the electric kettle.
Bennett paused.
'Do I really deserve such amazing senpai? . . .' he thought smiling a little.

TEYVAT ACADEMY - amazing senpai pt.2
"Oh, it's Senpai!!!" the cheerful voice of an unlucky student resounded in the hallway when he noticed three familiar figures.
He walked over to them quickly, waving his hand for them to notice him. The blonde-haired woman turned her head towards the younger student.
"Bennett, good morning. Do you need anything?" she asked with a gentle smile.
The man with the eyepach next to her gave a short laugh.
"Jean, I'm sure he's just glad to see his amazing senpai's. Right Benne-" Kaeya said, but he stopped when the boy walked past him as if he hadn't noticed him.
"Y/N-senpai! I wanted to thank you for yesterday! I didn't think it would rain so hard that it would destroy my umbrella! Luckily, the one you gave me is fine!" he said towards the e/c-eyed student, handing them their umbrella.
"No problem." they replied with a small smile taking the umbrella from Bennett.
"Huh?" the blue-haired man stood motionless, not knowing how to react. It was probably the first time he had been so ignored.
Jean (the Acting Grand Master from Mondstadt) chuckled quietly.
"Are you okay, Kaeya?" she asked.
". . . No-"
***
The meeting at 'Celestia' has just ended and everyone is getting ready to leave. Y/N was in a rush to leave the room as soon as possible. A certain green-eyed student was waiting outside the door, whom they promised to eat lunch together.
"Oh?~ I can see someone is in a hurry~ I wonder why?" Venti sang. His mouth twitched into a playful smirk.
The e/c-eyed student did not do anything about it, being used to the dark-haired boy's behavior.
"Leave them alone, Barbatos. I don't think their plans have anything to do with your." Zhongli said irritably.
"You're not fun, Morax." he pouted.
The woman with long purple hair, who stood behind them, just rolled her eyes.
The two arguing 'Archons' didn't even notice when the younger student left the room. They only realized it when they heard the cheerful voice of a fair-haired boy.
"Y/N-senpai! I was waiting for you. Maybe we can eat on the rooftop? Oh and Razor and Fischl will be there too- If you don't mind of course!" he said excited.
They only replied with a smile and a quiet 'I don't mind it'.
Zhongli and Venti fell silent and watched the two of them with gentle smiles.
"They are finally making some friends, huh Morax?"
"On this one I have to agree with you."
***
"Oh no . . ."
"What's wrong, Bennett?" his red-eyed friend asked.
"Y/N-senpai helped me do my math homework yesterday and I think I left it at their dorm." he replied heartbroken. "And we're already in class and the lesson has begun-"
He stopped when, after knocking, a familiar figure entered the door.
"Excuse me, didn't somebody from here lose the math homework? I found the papers in the corridor outside the classroom." Y/N announced.
In this moment, they looked significantly at the green-eyed first-grader. It took him a moment to figure out what they meant.
He got up quickly from his seat and walked briskly towards them.
"Yes! Em- I mean, yes, those must be mine." Bennett said nervously taking his homework from their hands. "Thank you very much!"
The fair-haired boy returned to his seat. The teacher looked at them suspiciously, but said nothing.
"Excuse me for interrupting. Goodbye." and after that h/c-haired student left.
"Bennett is lucky to have Y/N-senpai as a friend," Razor whispered at him.
"Yeah . . ." Bennett smiled to himself.
Maybe no one said that out loud but everyone can see that Y/N and Bennett are really close. And that Bennett couldn't be more thankful and happy because of that.
sorry, it's kinda short
but i hope ypu like it ^^
Hope you all have a great day ^v^
Sorry for any mistakes
