    Summary

    In the city of freedom, it was customary to wear one’s heart on one's sleeve – in quite the literal sense of the word.

    Love was not something to be ashamed of, nor something that needed to be hidden away. Hiding one’s soulmark was not necessarily frowned upon – people from all corners of Teyvat visited Mondstadt after all, bringing along their own soulmark customs – but it was usually a clear indication of what archon said person worshipped.

    In Liyue, soulmarks were considered to be more of a sacred thing, and were usually only shared with people one had already grown close to.

    In Snezhnaya, showing off one’s soulmark in public was outright illegal, despite the Cryo archon being considered a goddess of love.

    Kaeya didn’t know what Khaenri’ah’s policy on soulmarks had been in the past, but he did know for a fact he preferred to keep his own mark hidden.

    He wondered if, had the people of Khaenri’ah not been cursed to never be able to see their own soulmarks, his views might have been different.

    Summary

    Can drown us in an instant.

    Cyno is Pharaoh over Middle Kingdom Egypt, and he is well aware of the responsibilities this brings. In fact, one could say that he is overly aware of these responsibilities as they plague almost every waking thought. For the Pharaoh, divine ruler over all, has a major problem.

    Namely, he is gay.

    But the Pharaoh must have an heir, and so, Cyno forces himself to accept the marriage his vizier and advisors have arranged for him to the Assyrian princess, Nilou.

    Can Cyno bear the burdens that weigh on his heart, or will they consume him, soul and flesh alike.

    Summary

    Albedo looked away to the side. “Would you …”
    “Apologies, I couldn't quite catch that.”
    “Would you be willing to …” Albedo swallowed, balling his hands into fists under the table.
    He was going to say it. He had to.
    “Would you have sex with me?”

    .
    .
    .

    Albedo is an undisputed genius. Some might even call the Kreideprinz the best living alchemist in all of Teyvat. But Albedo himself has misgivings about his own abilities. He knew he lacked knowledge of human relations, emotions, and ... sex. Could he even find release in arousal?

    What better way to find out than with Mondstadt's charming and definitely experienced Cavalry Captain, erudite in all matters regarding sex and love, right?
