Corrupted Heart (Scaramouche x Reader)

The electro archon's gnosis

By now you had made multiple debt collections. You came to a point where taking lives didn't hurt you as much a it used to do. This was them or you.

Of course you tried to comfort you thinking that there was their fault for owing the Fatuis. But a little voice kept telling you that you were wrong all the time. Well fuck that voice.

Your days eventually started to all look the same. Training, paperwork, debt collection, sleeping, etc... As they always do.

And again you didn't interact much with Scaramouche during this time.

However, finally you were soon announced something new. Something that will break your routine.

Your team was selected to go to Inazuma for the next mission. You were told the details will be transmited later.

The most important right now was that you were going to finally discover Inazuma. It was a new land for you who has always stuck to Liyue and Shnenzhnaya now.

Oddly, you were looking forward to this new trip, you needed something strong enough to break your routine and you found it.

When your teamate was done telling you the big new, he let you alone so you could start processing it. The trip will be planned in a few days now and you had to prepare it.

Eventually, Scaramouche gathered all of his underligns including you so he could explain more details to all of you.

You will head out soon, undercover and for a long period. Indeed, you will all be dressed as civilians so you won't get arrested or questioned about your doing there.

Afterwards he explained the whole purpose of the mission : finding the electro archon's gnosis and snag it. You didn't know much more for now.

The following days were dedicated to the preparation of your trip.

And your training eventually got tougher. You will have no second shot at Inazuma. It was a lot of pressure on your shoulder.

But on the other hand a part of you was shyly delighted to have this trip with Scaramouche. Lately you have been wanting to know more about him. So this mission will be the perfect time to understand his motives. You indeed planned to spy on him during the mission.

But at the end who will spy who?

It's true that Scaramouche didn't choose you out of favoritism but because you had the abilities necessary for the job.

However even so, he didn't change his mind and wants to know more about what he feels for you.

---------------------------------------------------------

The wind was slightly whistling against the veils of the boat. It was a descret machine with a silent motor that will lead its owners towards the forbidden land of Inazuma.

You sheltered your eyes with your hand you held flat against your forehead so you they were protected from the shiny sun.

The boat started to pace forward and you almost lost your balance.

It was a nice feeling. Having your hair hovering in the wind as the sun rays hit your skin. Everything felt quite peacefull.

Moments like this were the one where you forgot you were doomed to stick with the Fatuis.

It was nice to escape from you miserable condition for a moment.

Something suddenly stroke you and woke you up from your lack of concentration and you brought your attention onto a dark form that stood out from the rather enlightened scenery.

Scaramouche was indeed standing at the tip of the boat, not far from the strong waves that hit it.

His hat's ornements hovered as the wind blew against them, jingling slightly. He was staring at the horizon before him and you couldn't tell what was inside his mind.

Suddenly you saw the tip of a land: Inazuma. You bowed upon the sea, almost falling and you admire the scenery. It was so beautiful.

----------------------------------------------------------

You steped on the island flabbergested by what you could see. You head was slowing moving from right to left as you were gazing upon each details of the landscape. It was wonderfull.... Until someone bumped into you growling.

"What are you doing?! Keep moving forward!"

You scowled at him obeying.

"Don't dare looking at me with this face. And stay there I have something do deal with the commision."

You let him enter the building and stay right in front of it, bored. You were looking at the passengers wondering how life was at Inazuma.

After a few minutes he came out?

"Lets go."

You and the other fatuis followed.

After a long road, he brought all of you towards the headquarters of the fatuis at Inazuma. It was a place where all of you could stay. Big enough but discret.

You were wondering how your life were going to be in this mansion and what your missions will look like. You were rather excited.

Author note : sorry i finished this scene drunk. And i know i didn't write since a long time. Im sorry for that. I will try to update more often.
Have a nice day everyone.
