"𝐻-𝐻𝑒𝓎! 𝒞𝑜𝓂𝑒 𝑜𝓃! 𝒴𝑜𝓊 𝒹𝑜𝓃'𝓉 𝒽𝒶𝓋𝑒 𝓉𝑜--𝒜𝓌, 𝒻𝒾𝓃𝑒, 𝑜𝓀𝒶𝓎..." The bridge between the living and the spirit worlds is delicate, held up by strings that only the Masters of the Night Wind can hold. At the very soul of this tribe are the Shamans, individuals chosen for their talent and hard-work, the only ones worthy to keep Natlan afloat. Known for their strength and of devotion to Natlan, the Collective of Plenty are the undoubtably the best tribe that represents the nation of war. Their strength lies not only in their traditional feats, but in being the foundation of fueling the nation and protecting our people. Among the newest Shamans of the Night Wind is Y/N, a young and recently graduated Shaman, chosen for their strength and years of hardwork. Their first task? The Collective of Plenty has been receiving reports of spirits said to be crashing into the sides of mountains, their restless energy causing tremors and unsettling the land. A perfect task for one of the Night Wind's best, though staying a WEEK away from home is definitely a little uneasy... And as one of the bubbliest members of the Collective, Varesa is beloved for giving people fresh fruits and vegetables from her orchard and for being a joyfully vibrant person as whole. She was assigned to help guide Y/N around and was happy to take on the task since those disturbances were going on around her house... though she was a little surprised when she found out a SHAMAN was staying with her. ---------- A lot of the earlier chapters are slower paced okay so keep that in mind... I may go back and rewrite/combine some parts. Also it took me over 10 chapters to realize that Varesa does not actually have a house in her orchard but it's okay shhh

The Marionette has all but lost interest in carrying out the Tsaritsa's orders on retrieving the defector "Columbina", nor does she show interest in meddling with the Traveler and his companion so long as they don't do the same. But she has to keep her position within the Harbingers one way or another, so she continues overseeing the Kuuvahki Experimental Design Bureau and furthering its research. This constant routine grows boring day by day, not to mention the relentless repairs she has to deal with after Rerir's assault. But a certain new member, a mechanic from Nasha town, joining the Fatui ranks since the Harbinger's invasion...He has constantly been the one who catches her glance, and his expertise. Is she curious? Cautious of a new face? Or perhaps a potential experiment to be had? Either way, it was clear that she's found something to keep herself entertained in these boring lands. © I do not own Genshin Impact/It's titles/Characters in any shape or form.

Five hundred years ago, the world decided the Hydro Archon Egeria was dead. She wasn't. Now, under the name Lora, she walks Teyvat again with a single objective: to overturn the future that was forced onto her people. The Heavenly Principles wrote a prophecy. Fontaine is meant to drown. The gods are meant to obey. Lora doesn't. Every move matters. Archons, the Abyss, Celestia-everyone is playing their part, all trying to control the board. And Lora? She's already placing her pieces. Passing the throne to Focalors was only the opening move. Because this time, she isn't fighting fate head-on- she's playing for checkmate. No chosen-one nonsense. Just a former god who intends to win-before the heavens realize the game is already lost.

[Reader Discretion] This is a layered narrative: a K-Drama slow burn × Fullmetal Alchemist × John le Carré blend. Expect slow-build romance, science-mystic body horror, and espionage intrigue. If you prefer light or straightforward plots, this may not be your style. This story is an AU fanfic, please enjoy it for what it is. In the contemporary civilization; City of New Eridu, Officer Zhu Yuan of the New Eridu Public Security (N.E.P.S.) leads her team through a high-stakes investigation, tackling a series of strange incidents connected to a long-forgotten cold case. Unexpectedly, she teams up with Elias, a mysterious and resourceful investigator, as they unravel dangerous secrets buried deep in the city's shadows, while navigating the chaos of a world plagued by Hollows. IMPORTANT: Just to clear the air-this is not a Zhu Yuan x Wise/Phaethon ship. Don't get me wrong, I adore their dynamic too, but harem vibes? Yeah, that just kills the mood for me. Instead, I created an OC for Zhu: Elias, an agent who matches her energy, aspirations, and ideals. Think of this story as one of the movies in Random Play-same antagonist, but with an extra twist or two. If that's not your cup of tea, I totally respect your preference! Just... maybe keep the cannons pointed elsewhere, okay? Thanks! Let's just say this is from another parallel/alternate universe. :) ---------------------- WRITER NOTES: This story doesn't contain NSFW. ---------------------- Disclaimer: This fanfiction is based on Zenless Zone Zero by HoYoverse.

23-year old Koda Hayes is just your average convenience store worker. Five years in the grind have taught him a few important truths. First, never trust the expiration dates. Second, if someone walks in after midnight wearing sunglasses and a trench coat, they're either going to rob you, confess their love, or tell you aliens are real. Sometimes all three. Maybe kill you. Before diving into a full-time career, Koda fills his night-shifts in the store doomscrolling during his shift, balancing working multiple jobs on the side, and just trying to stay updated on things that don't concern him. Then one day, a stranger appears in his life, wearing a trench coat. (Bots commenting in the chat will be muted and blocked)

A young and emotionally fresh bartender laid eyes upon a customer who he thought was too beautiful to even be human. If only he had known how accurate his assumption was before trying his luck at love at first sight.
