Chongyun Genshin Impact - Blog Posts

Because it’s looking like we won’t get any more of these specific illustrations..

Appreciation post for the extra chibi Chongqiu art 🍨📘

them<3

I can’t tell if I’m tripping or not but I SWEAR it was stated ingame or in some official form that Chongyun canonically likes to draw???? is my brain making that up, or did that actually get officially stated???????? HELP-?????????

If I’m living a false life and Genshin is unbased, then fuck it. I’m making that a new headcanon; Chongyun is an artist of average skill, and makes little doodles on occasion if he has the time.

But the doodles in question are always of Xingqiu, because whenever he’s at home and she’s on his mind, he find himself drawing her in a notebook… His head gets cloudy when he thinks about her beauty.

I’m going fucking mental… XINGQIU, GIRL, WHAT THE FUCK?????????????

ARE YOU ACTUALLY FUCKING KIDDING ME WITH THIS SHIT??????????

Okay so you’re telling me, Xingqiu would run away to Chongyun’s house and stay there for 10 DAYS to 2 WEEKS (specifically), if her brother had said JUST THAT???????? THAT’S IT???? THAT’S ALL IT TAKES FOR HER TO STAY AT CHONGYUN’S PLACE FOR TWO FULL WEEKS????????? WHAT………

And also the way she mentions it so casually and without hesitation, it’s her first thought?? Implying that this isn’t the first time, and that she does it consistently enough for it to be her first thought and for it to be this casual…

And she would do ALL that JUST because her brother would say something like; “Support the business, make money, get rich.”??? ARE YOU SERIOUS.

LITERALLY SAYING IF HER FAMILY ANNOYS HER OR SHE’S TIRED OF THEM IN ANYWAY, EVEN JUST A TINY BIT, SHE’S KNOCKING ON CHONGYUN’S DOOR AND STAYING THERE FOR TWO FULL WEEKS……

WHAT THE FUCK.

Screenshots from here

With Xingqiu remarking that Chongyun’s handwriting is lovely, I wanted to remind everyone that we do know what it looks like, and it looks like this!

And Xingqiu’s right, it is very lovely^^ 🍨📘

Xingqiu blushing at Chongyun after he complimented her stories and writing, IN CANON… I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS IS THE TIMELINE WE LIVE IN……..

SHE’S BLUSHING BECAUSE CHONGYUN IS THE ONE COMPLIMENTING HER……… ARE YOU KIDDING ME…………………… HOW IS THIS REAL…………

// Lantern Rite day 1 — (about Chongqiu & the Feiyun family)

The footage I used for the screenshots are from here :)

First off; just Chongyun’s face and how he looks at Xingqiu the entire time she’s explaining the circumstances with her great-grandfather…….

And him being cautious about whether or not to relay what’s going on..

He’s so concerned and worried for how she’s feeling….. ☹️☹️☹️☹️

I love these type of moments a lot because it reminds you that they REALLY do care about each other a lot, they just love each other so much 🥲🥲 (I say this because sometimes it feels like some people forget that.. /lh)

It just makes me really happy to see, their love means a lot to me <33

And Chongyun saying he’s going with Xingqiu to check up on the room again, I just know it’s actually because he wants to be by Xingqiu’s side and to be there for her, he’s very clearly worryed about her and how she’s doing..

Even if she isn’t close with her great-grandfather, he wants to be there for her…

And I’m just thinking about the idea of them after they say goodbye to the Traveller & Paimon, and as they’re walking to her house; Chongyun sees Xingqiu looking down and appearing all gloomy, he asks again if she really is okay, and she says “Yes.” again, but Chongyun still doesn’t think so…

And he asks if she wants to hold his hand, and she gives a soft but pained smile and excepts it, and when she takes his hand she never lets go after that..

Also I want to talk about how I interpret Xingqiu’s relationship with her great-grandfather with my hcs for her family:

Xingqiu emphasising she’s “never been close with her great-grandfather” and how “he wasn’t speaking much by the time she was born”, implying the non-closeness derives from her just not interacting with him at all pretty much. And I find that very interesting when it comes to interpreting it and compared to her other relationships in the family…

I like to think this non-closeness for her great-grandfather doesn’t come from the same place as like her mother, brother or father (negative), and it is more neutral because compared to the other three; he never gave her a hard time growing up or in present day, because she never really got to interact with him in a proper way.

And because of that neutralness towards him rather than negative feelings, she is feeling a sense of fear for him - even if she isn’t close to him at all, and is trying to assure everyone that she’s okay, even though it’s clear that it is affecting her in someway. Because since it’s not deep rooted in negativity, it’s actually getting to her.

Also I kind of like to think that in the little times she did interact with him, he just lets her do what she wants because he’s old asf and could care less on what she does (even if her family says otherwise) - so she has respect for him on that front.

And this is pretty much everything I have to say rn, of course this is all only going by day 1, but I’m interested to see how this is going to progress :3

Edit: we didn’t get much more..

// 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐪𝐢𝐮 𝐡𝐜 !! — from: (21/01/2024)

I have so many ideas when it comes to Chongyun & Xingqiu’s relationship with one another, and majority of the time I can’t put ideas into words/write essays.

But one of the big ones I have is:

Chongyun & Xingqiu’s relationship is nothing but strong & unadulterated love and admiration for each other - they care about & love each other so deeply, and see one another as the best thing that has ever happened to them. And that sometimes because they see each other so highly & fondly, they feel like they don’t deserve somebody as amazing as each other (simultaneously), and both of them have no idea the other sees them on such a high pedestal (in both of their different ways).

They both love each other so much, and will wonder if they’re even worthy to have somebody as perfect and amazing as that by their side - without knowing that the other also feels the same way. There is not a single drop of angst, it’s just nothing but pure love.

“Loving someone as amazing as you, makes me feel like I’m not worthy to be yours. You’re just, so perfect… But I will never let that stop me from loving you any less, it just makes me love you even more, knowing you see something in me, that I don’t.” - 🍨/📘

Notes:

Now I just want to make it clear that Chongyun & Xingqiu have great communication between each other, and I have many scenarios related to them talking about this “issue” - I just want to make sure the idea doesn’t get twisted that they have bad communication in their relationship^^

(I’m just specifying this for my brains sake, bc I worry about incorrect interpretations-)

Being a Chongqiu fan makes me feel like i’m the only provider and contributor to the economy a lot of the time, because I see nothing 94% of the time 😞😔
