The Life I Wished For[Genshin Impact]

Chapter 7: Permission

Im like really running out of ideas with the war so im gonna skip to many years or so after the Archon war. Some important things will be changed like most archons are still alive and will die more later after the war instead of during it.

Warning: mentions of zhongven (zhongli x venti)

I was sitting on a rock near Mondstadt while I heal a cut i got with my anemo vision. I was picking morning fruits for the children again and cut myself from thorns. I recently learned that im a catalyst healer and my power isn't really fit for attacking. It would make sense that because back then when i was defending Mondstadt from that Cryo god, it wasn't really that effective.
(I also forgot if anemo was weak against cryo but whatever).

Barbatos spots me while flying around Mondstadt and lands in front of me.

"Good morning Y/N! Whatcha doing out here?"

"Ah, good morning Barbatos. I was just picking some fruits and cut myself."

"You love getting fruits for the children, don't you?"

"Well, i can't just simply say no to them. They are so adorable!"

"Heh, true."

"Maybe you should have children Barbatos! I would love to see mini versions of you!"

"EH?! ME?! HAVING CHILDREN?!" Barbatos said while blushing.

"Oh yeah! Aren't you quite close with the Geo Archon? You guys are like a married couple!" I teased, but i wasn't wrong. He is VERY close to him.

"EH-UH-NO-YE-AH-..."

"Pfft, im just joking Barbatos. Who knew you were the type of person to get flustered easily?"

"Im not!"

"Heh okay, whatever you say Barbatos!"

...

We talk more about things and tease eachother but there was still something important i needed to tell him.

"Hey Barbatos..I need to ask you something important."

"What is it?"

"I have been thinking about exploring Teyvat for a while now, and i feel like i needed your permission."

"Exploring Teyvat sounds amazing! But why would you need my permission?"

"Well..you were the one who brought me to Mondstadt because I didn't have a home, and you take care of me sometimes..and i guess your kinda like a parent figure to me.."
I mumble the last part trying not to let Venti hear me but its obvious he does since whatever the wind hears, he hears.

"Oh, that makes sense! Well if you really think that, then i allow you to travel Teyvat and be free!"

"Thank you Venti!"

I run up to the god and wrap my arms around him. I hug him tightly while his eyes widen, but not from the hug.

"W-Wait..What did you just call me?"

Shit.

"Uh I um.."

I accidentally called him by his human name he uses in the future..which was also the name of his dear friend that he took the form of. I pull away from the hug and make eye contact with the God.

"H-How do you know that name..?"

I really fucked up.

Idk if its canon but its probably not. I made nameless bard name Venti because i thought it would make sense.
