"i don't belive you" (scaramouche x fem reader) a genshin impact fanfic

Chapter 12

{a/n: TW: mentions of violence and death}

Kazuha placed one glass on the desk, where Scaramouche sat down, precisely on the desk, not on the chair, and took the other one with him on the couch in front of the navy-haired boy, in between a guitar and a bass.

"Scara, can we talk about your tattoo? And about Y/n, can we? Do you feel like it?"

"What about Y/n?"

"When you left with her, Zhongli told us what your tattoo was, so she didn't hear it..."

"I know, and she said she didn't want to. She wanted to wait for me to talk about it with her. And I intend to, I always had the intention to let her know everything. So, if that's all, you can leave"

"No, that's not all, that was just the beginning. Hu Tao, she was scared beyond any limit. She wanted to let Y/n know, so-"

"She did not. I swear to damn Celestia, if she told Y/n about it without me"

"That's exactly what happened"

Scaramouche let out a scream, muffled by his hands that covered his face completely. His friend didn't give him time to process that information though, he would have had all the time he wanted when he would have left. Right now, he needed to tell him what happened at your house, with the highest amount of details as possible.

"Y/n didn't want to hear, she said a lot of times that she promised you she would wait for you, that since it was something important about you she only wanted to hear it from you. But Hu Tao told her you're a Fatui Harbinger anyway. Y/n got mad at her for telling her without considering her opinion, but Hu Tao continued anyway"

"Continued?! What the fuck is there to know more?! That's it!"

"Y/n didn't know or didn't remember what happened three years ago, the man who got killed behind that villa. Hu Tao told her everything. Well, everything that the media said at that time. She was scared to find Y/n's corpse at the Funeral Parlor with the same symbol on the forehead"

"Oh my fucking archons I bet that asshole thinks it was me"

"She doesn't know, but for sure she would like Y/n to, and I quote, 'not get too much involved with him, he's dangerous'"

"YOU'RE JOKING RIGHT!? THAT IS ALL BULLSHIT, I DID NOTHING SINCE I BECAME A DAMN HARBINGER! AND DANGEOURS?! IT'S BEEN THREE YEARS WE ARE BASICALLY DEAD! THE FATUI IS DEAD! WE DO NOTHING BUT TALK TO ONE ANOTHER SINCE THAT DAMN THING!"

"Calm down, both Hu Tao and Y/n still don't want to cut all ties with you, especially Y/n. Hu Tao for now said she would like to treat you as always, hoping you would grow apart from us. Y/n doesn't even believe a single thing Hu Tao told her, I'm sure-"

"See, I was right all along" Scaramouche got up from the desk and sat down on the chair, giving Kazuha his back "You were wrong, you told me not everyone stabs you in the back, that I should try and make friends. Look what my fucking friends think about me now, a doodle on my shoulder and they're ready to abandon me, they think I killed a man, they're sure I'd put them in danger, and they pray for me to grow apart from them. I knew it, I should have never given you my number or even my name, I should have kept my distance, going on with my usual life"

"You're talking nonsense, I'm here in your house trying to figure out how to solve a misunderstanding between you and a couple of your friends, no one stabbed you. Get yourself back together, Scaramouche"

"Aha, helping me? You're just reporting me what the others think, how can that help me? Yeah sure, good dog, you did a good job, you can leave now"

A heavy sight left Kazuha's lips, and he looked up at the ceiling "You sure are something else. Drill this in your thick skull: I will not leave you and nor will most of them either, not Y/n for sure. If someone does leave you because of this, they will demonstrate to be not worth it. Now, back to the "helping you" stage. I think you should talk to everyone. Explain what the Fatui is, what they did and did not, if they still do those things and what role do you have, what you did and what you would do, what you're ready to do and what your limits are, when and how you joined them, why and if you're thinking about leaving. Everything. Be crystal clear for once, and everyone will take their decision on their own, figure out everything. But if you leave them be and not explain a single thing, they're all going to assume the worst. You could even lose Y/n. Who knows for how much the trust you gained will last. I suggest you say everything as soon as possible, while everyone is still trying to figure out things"
