Mortal Transience {Scaramouche x Reader}

[Mortal Transcience]

"I am not just a puppet; I am the one who pulls the strings-
Bow before your superior."

~Scaramouche [Harbinger Form] x Reader

< Reader is female, but since there are no down and dirty scenes for the foreseeable future, feel free to substitute your own pronouns in! >

Y/N, in Sumeru, supports Haravatat behind the scenes in order to maintain peace between the sages;
if this means working with the fatui and delving into forbidden knowledge, going against Celestia, so be it.

But does she truly know as much as she thinks?
-Or is she being played completely by the whims of the people pulling the strings?

And when she continues to be taken aback by the swift evanescence of human mortality, is there really anyone constant?

Both Y/N and Scaramouche are immortal puppets; yet one wishes to protect that which she loves, while one has nothing left to love nor protect.

(reader discretion advised)

There will be many spoilers.

Y/N hails from Khaenr'iah.

Sporadic updates but I try to post every Tuesday/Wednesday!
