Since one of my mutuals stated it… if you think that a black person uses proper grammar is being white, not only are you being anti black. You are also trying to stereotype black people, thinking that all black people don’t know how to use proper grammar or that they all use AAVE. So saying “you sound white” isn’t a compliment. It’s an insult.

kazuha (万葉)
it all happened past midnight. you, kazuha, and beidou were the only people left semi-awake on deck. your drinking buddies retired long ago, leaving you to handle the captain of the crux and the samurai on your own. which, wouldn’t have been an issue hadn’t the liquor served been stronger than usual
you had no clue where she purchased the drinks. but it was clear she didn’t get them from her supplier. normally, on nights such as these, you’d feel a light yet nice buzz. however, it didn’t seem to be the case at the moment. you were slurring your words, beidou was giggling over nothing, and kazuha was slumped across the makeshift table somewhat conscious
“…ah, young love! …what a fickle thing indeed.” you heard her snort to herself, while you brushed kazuha’s bangs away from his face and removed your coat for him to use as a makeshift pillow
“what are you rambling about this time, eh?”
“hm, i would tell you…” she teased, tapping her lips, “but you first have to swear you will keep it a secret from kazuha and y/n, okay?”
you sat dumbfounded. what in the world did they put for a heavyweight to act like a lightweight after a few drinks? “um, swear? now, what is it?”
“loverboy over there.” she then gestured to the now passed out kazuha beside you. “harbors romantic feelings for y/n but refuses to confess! …s-said something about how nothing he wants to say sound right? which is ironic… because he’s a self-proclaimed poet! …heh, still makes me laugh!”
you gaped like a fish, as you tried to process every single word that past her lips. he likes you? …romantically too? were you hearing things or was this legitimately happening? you were seconds away from fully spiraling if it weren’t for the sound of kazuha’s abrupt loud snoring interrupting you
“and you’re sure he does because…” you were still unconvinced. lucky for you, beidou in the mood to ramble about his supposed adoration for you until you eventually decided it was time you all retired to your private quarters
of course, you didn’t get a wink of sleep. your mind was still preoccupied by what you had just learned. and it only worsened when you woke up to find kazuha kneeling in front of you with his hand atop your forehead. “i-i apologize for the intrusion… but i didn’t see you during breakfast and got worried you had fallen ill because of last night,” he softly explained to you, with a small smile on his handsome face

how about 'if I kissed you, I don't think I'd be able to stop' from the prompt list with our favorite red batman?
pairing: diluc x gn!reader
the first snowfall of the season begins at night. it's rather unceremonious, despite the warm feeling of change it stirs within your heart. a single snowflake falls to the ground, followed by another and another, until the ground is covered in a thin layer of white powder. it arrives quieter than the rain does and will leave far more slowly, but you don't mind.
instead, you brush off the snow on the railing before you and lean your weight onto it, forearms resting against the cool marble. if you had known it would snow, you would have dressed for the occasion. instead, you wear autumnal clothing designed for breezy nights, with snowflakes collecting on the weavings of a sweater thick enough to keep out the dampness of the frozen water.
you let out a huff of air as a test, watching as it forms a faint cloud of vapor before swirling away into the night sky. at the sight combined with the chill that slowly seeps into your veins, you shiver.
"i thought i would find you out here," a familiar voice says, causing you to snap out of your thoughts. you blink owlishly, but don't bother to turn around to see who approaches. you don't need to see the familiar mop of red hair to know that it's none other than diluc ragnvindr. the party that carries on inside appeals to neither of you. you are only surprised that you were the first one to make it to the balcony.
"is that so?" you muse, glancing up at the night sky. the lights of the mondstadtian city, still vibrant this early into the evening, prevent you from being able to see the stars above. perhaps i can dream, however, you think, eyes focusing on the brightest star in the sky that still manages to shine through the veil of light pollution.
footsteps make their way over to you, echoing across the stone tile. diluc stops next to you, just close enough that your arms would brush if you chose to lean onto his shoulder. you don't opt for the romantics, instead choosing to look at him with a tilt of your head.
"do you not have business to attend to?" you ask. despite diluc's avoidance of pompous affairs such as this, he's often too savvy of a businessman to pass up the opportunity for another entrepreneurial venture that the wealthy elites within the halls of these parties provide.
"do you not have duties to perform within the event?" diluc asks in return, tone devoid of any real accusation. his gaze moves to look over his shoulder and back at the bustling party, but returns to you as you begin to speak, glancing at you with fondness.
"i-" you begin, but you unintentionally cut yourself off as you shiver once more. with an efficiency reserved only for mondstadt's most eligible bachelor, diluc immediately shrugs off his coat. your lips tremble due to the cold weather, but the way diluc's eyebrows furrow in concern at your chilled state has any protests dying on your lips.
for once, you let the redhead assist you, remaining quiet as he drapes his coat around your shoulders. he fusses with the collar a bit and you don't fail to notice the way his cheeks turn red. its something that cannot be attributed to the cold weather, yet you avert your gaze and smile softly, not wanting to ruin the intimate gesture.
"thank you." your words are spoken earnestly. his coat is warm, smelling faintly of fresh cedar, and you quietly wonder what exactly its made of to be this comfortable.
"no need to thank me," diluc reassures before clearing his throat.
"ditching the party just to provide me with your coat? that deserves some sort of reward, doesn't it?" you tease, knowing exactly which buttons to press after knowing diluc for so long.
diluc's eyes flutter closed for a brief moment as he lets out an exasperated sigh. it seems that even he has learned over the years as well. his eyes slowly open up and he glances over at you with a deadpan expression. he relents.
"i suppose, as long as it is not anything extravagant.”
diluc’s concession is immediately one he regrets as your expression turns mischievous. the few snowflakes that gather on your eyelashes fail to hold you back. instead, you lean in closer to him, nearly touching but not quite.
“hm,” you ponder. “what exactly could you want from me?”
you already know the answer.
diluc’s gaze flickers down to your lips.
you receive the confirmation you needed. swallowing your own nervousness, you muster up your sweetest smile for him and tilt your head slightly, gazing at him intently. diluc swallows at the intensity of your gaze, yet the smoldering embers of his eyes dare not to look away.
“a kiss, maybe?” you breathe and you watch as diluc’s breath clouds into the air. his lips part slightly and he clears his throat, before lifting the back of his palm up to his mouth and glancing away bashfully.
“if i kissed you,” diluc confesses in a low tone as he attempts to gather his composure. “i do not believe that i would be able to stop.”
“oh? should we test that theory, then?”
under the first snowfall of the year, you and diluc share your first kiss. the only audience is found in the snowflakes that gather in your hair. diluc cups the side of your face gently and his hand warms you more than the coat around your figure does and, greedily, you lean into the warmth, unsure if you’ll ever be able to get enough of it.
ya. ur bloodline ends here bc of ur kaeya theme (also is ur finger okay alsoalso cna u bring bakc inheritance hmmm)

a/n: i've been so obsessed with royal!au lately so enjoy this! you're a herbalist in this who lives at the palace. (yes this is inspired from snow white with the red hair ehe)
DILUC: the eldest son of the king. he's a dreamboat no doubt; princesses from all over the kingdoms line up to be courted by him but alas, he rejects them all. his father warns him that he must marry soon to strengthen political alliances but little does the king know diluc's heart belongs to you, the royal court herbalist who has somehow managed to capture the young prince's heart.
KAEYA: the second brother to the throne. while he may be adopted and not true royal blood, the kingdom respects him the same. whether it be for his charming nature or the townsfolk fear of the royals, he rules alongside his brother with no protest. he often fakes injuries just to come see you at the clinic, claiming that he truly was hurt and might even have to stay overnight so you can monitor his health.
ALBEDO: the chief herbalist of the royal court. he's the one who appointed you to join the court in the first place. he truly saw lots of the natural potential you carried and admired your love for plants and medicine. he often asks you to accompany him to the greenhouse for assistance when really he just wants to spend more time with you.
THOMA: one of the princes personal advisor. he's always accompanying the princes and king with whatever it may be they need. although he may or may not sneak into your private quarters on evenings just to spend some time with you. he even brings you unique flowers he finds just to impress you.
KAZUHA: apart of the royal guard. he has been appointed to keeping the royal sons safe from any possible danger that may lurk in the dark. he often finds himself slacking off to watch a pretty herbalist walk through the gardens. he's always found you stunning, but isn't sure how to approach you just yet. so for now he'll just leave you small notes of anonymous poetry at your desk for you to ponder over.
CHILDE: the undercover spy from the neighboring kingdom. he was sent on a mission to gather as much intel as he could about the military and political affairs. he didn't meet you until he one day he was training too hard and ended up spraining his ankle. he was forced to spend time with you since you were attending to his injuries for the next several days. but he slowly found himself hopelessly falling for you. maybe he could take you away from this horrid place.
kinda wanna write some scaramouche angst lemme go see what offerings the 6k event submissions can provide for me to fulfill this
Hello everyone, so this post is different from any post I usually make and it’s kinda an urgent one? )):
I have been struggling financially and have a bill, 100$ that’s due. I don’t have the money and I currently don’t have a job. (I will explain down below in a cut as to what happened with the job I had so I don’t trigger anyone with the content!) I’m also not able to afford the medications I need to be taking, and therefore haven’t been able to take it to better my health, which is around another 100$! I live on my own and don’t have anyone in my personal life for help, no parents or other family so there really isn’t anyone I can ask for help except online you guys. I would need at least 150$ USD but if you can help reach to 100-200$ thank you <3

now below the cut I will explain what happened at the job I was working at;
TW physical assault, harassment, depression/anxiety
I worked at a retail store and my wages barely made enough to cover my expenses, I often worked longer shifts like 9 in the morning till closing which is 9:45, even though I worked very hard and showed a lot of positives and helped their business, coming into work bc someone didn’t show up even though it was my day off they still treated me harshly and the end was worse.
There’s 3 managers, one of them is the store manager and he’s hardly ever there. And when he is there, he’s constantly berating and inappropriate to the employees, I was harassed by a few employees and when I reported it to the managers they did nothing about it. They often tried to pin the blame on me, which is highly unprofessional and inappropriate. So i just kept my mouth shut and stayed working there bc I really needed a job and make money.
Well I got fired Thursday because of an incident that happened with a customer. He was very rude and was being entitled the entire time I assisted him. When we got super busy and I was the ONLY CASHIER AT THAT TIME, everyone else disappeared to either go on a break or who knows where. I kept radioing it in that I need some help up front and the lines are growing but no one came, even though all employees and managers keep their radio on them at all times and on.
Customers were getting impatient and when it was this mans turn he came up to me and in a very aggressive manner and asked why I’m so slow and why I can’t do a simple thing like checking someone out. I tried to explain to him in a polite and calm manner but he kept raising his voice at me and started yelling profanities and calling me names even using the r* slur.
In person I’m a really timid and shy person and suffer from panic attacks if my anxiety is through the roofs. Due to pass trauma whenever someone’s very aggressive towards me and start yelling or threatening my attacks come on. I started crying a little when I was checking him out but he told me to stfu and threw stuff at me. It left a bruise on my arm later on and that’s when my panic attack started. He was being very aggressive and I didn’t feel safe. He wanted the manager so I radioed the store manager
AND JUST LIKE THAT HE RESPONDED AND SHOWED UP yet he wouldn’t respond when I needed help up front..
He told the manager that I THREW it at him even though I didn’t. When he threw it i our my arms up in defense but it ended up hitting him when it bounced back. The manager apologized and said he’d take care of it but that the customer needed to calm down, take his things and go. He did.
But after that I was called into the cash office after working a 9 hour shift. He started explaining the company/store policy bullshit and how as a store manager he has a business to run and need to maintain the rep of the store and that I–ME–didn’t show a good representation for the store. He proceeded to fire me because I’m pretty much incompetent and a inconvenience to him. He couldn’t defend his employees and while I was out there bawling my eyes out because someone was being very aggressive, he was sitting on his ass all day ignoring calls for help up front.
So I don’t have a job at the moment, ive been applying everywhere near me but haven’t received anything back. Any donations or even commissions are very helpful, and will be greatly appreciated! <\3

diluc
“Why didn’t you order your usual drink?” A straightforward voice broke you out of your conversation and you turned your head to the side to see Diona staring at you. Her hands were on her hips and her eyes were narrowed at you. “You always order a Frisky Cocktail but tonight you just ordered water. Why?”
You hesitated to answer the young girl. But by the stare she was giving you, you knew she wasn’t going to let up anytime soon.
“Um, well,” You started, wondering if you could come up with a lie. You and Diluc hadn’t told anyone you were expecting yet but with a deep breath you said, “It’s because I’m pregnant.”
