Watching a Natlan character get a new skin while our boy is rocking the 1.3 model

Xiao has one of the most well-aged character designs in the game but wtf do you MEAN Citlali gets a skin first?? He's already buried in a no reruns grave and now they are shoveling dirt on top of it

This is mostly light-hearted but like also genuinely, low stakes annoying. Xiao fans will GIVE YOU MONEY HOYO DON'T YOU LIKE MONEY

[OC] I'm writing a ScaraDurin summer romance smut fic, aka Scara the 500-year-old virgin losing his virginity to a dragon twink

I'm working on a WIP fic that is 100% just character fluff and smut, focusing on Durin spending a summer alone in Sumeru with the Wanderer / Scara, about a year before the events in the Nod-Krai AQ.

Teaching Durin how to be human makes Scara realize just how little he knows how to be human

The smut starts in Chapter 3, fluffy friendship and pining before that.

Thanks for looking, happy pride 🌈💖

Some early damage comparisons - Nicole, Durin, Furina, sig vs F2P weapons

These comparisons are imperfect. I have minor stat differences between some characters and weapons

My main team level status is:

- Xiao C1, lvl 90, burst lvl 10, Deathmatch R5, 4pc LNO

- Faruzan C6, lvl 90, burst lvl 10, Fav R5, 4pc ToM

- Xianyun C1, lvl 90, burst lvl 10, TTDS R5, 4pc Noblesse

- Furina C2, lvl 80 (after final ascension), burst lvl 9, sig R1, 4pc Golden Troupe

- Durin C2, lvl 90, burst lvl 10, varied weapons tested, 4pc Rising Winds

- Nicole C2, lvl 87, shield lvl 6 and burst lvl 4, 3.7k attack, varied weapons tested, 4pc Celestial Gift

Any weapons or stats you want to see tested? I plan on doing some more thorough comparisons when I have enough mora to equalize stats and weapons, but this is the closest I can get right now

For weapons, I have:

Polearms: Deathmatch R5, Sac Spear R5, Fav R3

Swords: Durin sig R1, Furina sig R1, Moonweaver R5, Fav R5, Lion's Fang R5, Wolf-Fang R1

Catalyst: Nicole sig R1, Fav R5, TTDS R5, Dawning Frost R4, Eye of Perception R5

LNO strongbox is available now! Rerolled hundreds of artifacts, had a few disappointing stat rolls, and finally landed at a solid CR/CD ratio

My stats before were 102% CR / 171% CD, for reference. I couldn't lower my CR without losing CD so I lived with the overcap

The way my hope bloomed and died when every single LNO anemo damage goblet I pulled had absolute trash substats. The RNG in artifact grinding is brutal

Next goals: surpass 2k attack, finally get a 4-liner atk% sands that also rolls nicely :3

People like this are nuts. Imagine comparing fanfic to real life CSA

Yeah, I got myself into this lol. Genshin Impact fandom, infamous for players who have poor reading comprehension.

For the record, they're wrong lol. One character (Durin) is confirmed in canon to be an adult. The other character (Razor) starts the game as a teenager, and I wrote a fic with him 5 canonical years into the story, when he's an adult.

But let's pretend they're right. Let's pretend I wrote smut about two teenagers. Who the **fuck** compares a rando writing fanfic to JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

The bar is in hell 💀❤️

I know that they're focusing on the 6 original dolls, but it's a bummer to see so little Kaya stuff

On the one hand, yay I'm saving money. On the other, man I wish there was anything for Kaya other than a single Little People figure in a set 🥲

I almost exclusively collect Kaya, so it's a bit of a letdown. I hope that this 40th anniversary stuff does well and she gets a little more love too

My poor rainbow frog. This is Cinco. He needed a wash, so I unstuffed him and left him hanging up to dry. Unfortunately, my dad moved him to a table that my Berner mix puppy immediately snatched it from. Picture of the criminal included. (No dad hate pls. It was an accident.)

SO. Ideas for repair? I still have the second eye. I'm crafty and capable of hand sewing.

I can potentially stitch up the yellow/green eye. It has literally a milimeter of fabric still attached to the eye lol but I think I can patch it from the inside. But what would you do with that big hole on the other eye? Would you just close up the head with no eye bump? Replace the fabric with a scrap of mink? Eschew the old eye placement and make him a different creature altogether??

Thank you for all ideas ❤️🌈
