[Genshin Impact] I Told You, I’m from Liyue

Chu Shi Yuqi, with the compound surname Chu Shi. Everyone knows she's the Fatui's Twelfth Harbinger, but why does nobody ever care that she's from Liyue?!

Take Pantalone, for instance. Everyone knows he's a banker from Liyue. What's wrong with her? Is it a crime for someone from Liyue to be bad at economics? Does that mean she should be stripped of her citizenship?!

And so, while Chu Shi Yuqi is out on a mission

*

Kaeya: Welcome to Mondstadt, diplomat from Snezhnaya. But please don't wander off on your own, our guest.

Chu Shi Yuqi: I'm from Liyue, thank you.

*

Keqing: Now that you're a Harbinger of Snezhnaya, you should stay at the Northland Bank. Are you trying to drive a wedge between our nations?

Chu Shi Yuqi: Keqing QAQ

*

Kujou Sara: Don't disturb The Shogun, Harbinger!

Chu Shi Yuqi: I'm from Liyue.

Kujou Sara: I never said you weren't!

Chu Shi Yuqi: !

Lord Rex Lapis! Papa! I finally made Liyue's name known!

*

Chu Shi Yuqi doesn't understand why everyone is always so wary of her QAQ

Kaeya, Keqing, and Kujou Sara: Because you look exactly like a combination of a frosty Snezhnayan and a scheming Liyue prankster.

Chu Shi Yuqi: ...At least I'm from Liyue.

*

When the final battle against the Heavenly Principles began, a person suddenly stepped out of the Snezhnayan delegation and joined the Liyue side. With a sweep of her longsword, mountains and rivers changed color; her fluttering sleeves were like wisps of cloud drifting across the land.

"Why has this Snezhnayan Harbinger joined the Liyue side?"

Chu Shi Yuqi was so furious that she charged forward and struck down the Heavenly Principles with a single blow.

"I've told you, I'm from Liyue!"

*

The heroine is a Liyue spy sent to Snezhnaya. Zhongli and the Tsaritsa both know, but their subordinates have no idea. All the misunderstandings are her own doing, and she has a bit of a prankster streak.

She looks like she has a frosty, mocking face, but she's completely unaware of it and thinks she's lively and funny.

Why does she keep insisting she's from Liyue?

Because it's part of her character. Seriously.jpg

*[Pre-release] [Genshin Impact] My Favorite Dragon

Yingyu is a member of the Vidyadhara on the Xianzhou Luofu and the number one fan of the High Elder, Dan Feng. During the Dan Feng upheaval, she was stabbed in the kidney for supporting the Dragon Lord. After reincarnating, seventeen years later, a mess caused by an Emanator of Destruction sent her crashing into a spatial rift in a star skiff.

Landing on an unfamiliar planet isn't a big problem. Neither is the fact that the planet's development seems to have its technology tree locked. But when a dragon rescues her as she's falling through the atmosphere, that's a huge problem.

There are actually descendants of the dragon ancestors on this remote, backwater planet?

Yingyu, a devoted dragon fan in both her past and present lives, clutched the handsome young man's arm and fussed over him nervously.

Little dragon, how did you end up stranded on this desolate planet? How old are you this year? Did you hurt your back just now?

Rex Lapis, over six thousand years old and still in office: ?

After the situation was explained, Yingyu looked briefly disappointed, but her eyes soon lit up with a different kind of enthusiasm.

"If you don't mind my asking, Morax, can you still have children?"

Morax smiled awkwardly but politely. That really was a rather forward question.

But when he learned that the Vidyadhara had lost the ability to reproduce, and that not a single child had been born among them for millions of years, he understood her anxiety.

Zhongli, with time on his hands after retiring: If there's a way to help the Vidyadhara overcome their predicament through me, I'd be happy to cooperate.

The next day

Yingyu: There's a Hydro Dragon in Fontaine?! Zhongli, don't just sit there in silence! I'm only going to take a look! You know, our High Elder also commands water, so there must be some profound connection here, blah blah blah.

Watching her talk up a storm with shining eyes, Zhongli silently lifted his teacup to hide his expression.

[I know, and I believe it was just such a bond that brought you to me.]

Honkai: Star Rail is just the backdrop. The story mostly takes place in Teyvat.

The heroine is a Quantum Harmony character, basically a support, and one who can buff herself.

Theme: Enduring hardship to achieve one's goals
