Chapter Text

Mavuika @ladyofwar
I came across a video ranking tournament arcs in different anime and this is a public service announcement that none of your opinions on the topic matter because nothing will ever beat the Pilgrimage and I stand by that

forrest | he/him @woodlandcrypt
okay so my mind immediately went to the fucking Pilgrims but I'm fairly sure that's not what you're referring to so???

Mavuika @ladyofwar
Basically? It was my own personal tournament arc to enjoy as I pleased

aether @goldenoutlander
I'm still kind of salty I never got to participate

hell on wheels @xilonen
L

aether @goldenoutlander
that single letter feels like an insult to my bloodline somehow

hell on wheels @xilonen
I gave up some life force for your ancient name, these are the consequences

aether @goldenoutlander
good to know, thanks for the heads-up

The Thing Calling Itself "Enjou" @arsonandabyss
sometimes I really do pity your fandom


entropy @crimsonocean
okay so I was browsing the twitch tab for new streamers to watch and I found the most wholesome streamer ever??? like I thought it would be some kind of edgelord based on the name and vibes are first but the guy is literally just doing gardening and like talking to his vegetable it's so CUTE

entropy @crimsonocean
I have a platonic crush guys help

entropy @crimsonocean
also he keeps mentioning his grandmother who I guess must have taught him this stuff like can you get more wholesome than this I think not

is my mom gonna see this and judge me?! @mammmamia
pookie drop an @

entropy @crimsonocean
twitch.tv/the-nightshade

is my mom gonna see this and judge me?! @mammmamia
thank you <3

eimiko pls marry me @bibibye
okay so is it me or is the name Granny Itzli super familiar? like don't ask me where from but I've heard that before

aurel (they/he/it) @aurealis
I could be tripping but wasn't the name mentioned by one of the new teyvatverse creators? I think it might have been xilonen in one of her streams but idk

entropy @crimsonocean
no wait you might be onto something

aurel (they/he/it) @aurealis
I FOUND HER GUYS @itlzi_

Citlali @itlzi_
Yes?

aurel (they/he/it) @aurealis
oh shit didn't mean to @ you sorry!! while you're here though, do you know the_nightshade on Twitch?

Citlali @itlzi_
I do

aurel (they/he/it) @aurealis
okay so this might be personal idk, but why does he call you granny? you're like in your twenties aren't you?

Citlali @itlzi_
First, the passge of time means nothing to me. Second, I raised him but I'm not his mom, so he defaulted to grandmother for some reason. I don't know either, and he calls @goldenoutlander 'Gramps' so I'm not even an isolated incident.

entropy @crimsonocean
okkay didn't expect the lore to go this deep. does he have twitter?

Citlali @itlzi_
@nightshadee

Ororon 🪴 @nightshadee
hi


aether @goldenoutlander
you know what keeps me up at night? all I wanted when I got to teyvat was to find my sister and what did I get? government conspiracies, fake skies and a FUCKING WAR

aether @goldenoutlander
'oh aether,' you may ask, 'whose fault was the war?' MY SISTER

aether @goldenoutlander
we had to team up with the fatui of all people it was that bad and they killed my friends during, what's that??? another fucking WAR

aether @goldenoutlander
@abyssviatrix I'm blocking you for at least the next week I've been having back to back nightmares and I'll probably deck you on sight if you come by my place

lumine @abyssviatrix
noted. does xiao know?

xiao @vigilantyaksha
of course I do. aether says he'll be forwarding you his next therapy bill

Chasca | Vuka @crimsonwake
Wait why have I never thought of doing that

Chasca | Vuka @crimsonwake
@abyssviatrix expect my therapy bills too, as payment for getting my sister killed

lumine @abyssviatrix
you know what? fair enough. any other invoices i should expect from anyone else?

dis-dRain @theboughkeeper
I'm not sure you comprehend the scale of the monster you've just unleashed

lumine @abyssviatrix
oh don't worry my bank account will understand soon enough


teyvat informant @emergencyfood
move aside avengers, the six heroes of natlan are here to take your place

the yo-yo man @keptonyoing
fandom parent why are your trying to start a war

teyvat informant @emergencyfood
idk why not. it's on brand for natlan

the yo-yo man @keptonyoing
you're going to regret this so so much

teyvat informant @emergencyfood
yeah probably, but they're more badass so idc lmao

entropy @crimsonocean
wait did I miss something who are the six heroes

teyvat informant @emergencyfood
kinich, iansan, chasca, mualani, ororon and xilonen

teyvat informant @emergencyfood
they were the endgame avengers assemble before the avengers even existed (also I forgot @ladyofwar whoops she played a big part too)

Mualani 🌊🦈 @wavebreaker
wait but now i want someone to badly photoshop us into avengers endgame

Mualani 🌊🦈 @wavebreaker
@kingofcanopy could you maybe do me a tiny favour??

leave me alone @kingofcanopy
you know what? sure, why not

Mualani 🌊🦈 @wavebreaker
YESS


Mavuika @ladyofwar
Here's your daily reminder that we all live in a simulation and I broke through the matrix by blowing up the sky once <3

what the hell is a khaenri'ah @teyvatlorewho
wait what?? what are these lore implications??? was the simulation thing true all along??

Mavuika @ladyofwar
:)

venti @bardbatos
lmao why did you wake up and choose to break the internet

Mavuika @ladyofwar
chaos.

Notes:

start the chapter off haha funny and then BAM. angst for everyone.
