well, I didn't expect to find the Travlier's sibling this early
raspberrydrink
like we already knew they were leading the abyss but it's nice to have more details
raspberrydrink
also I knew Dein's design already thanks to Dimitri memes but /sage nod
fae bells
yeah surprise!
raspberrydrink
also confirms for sure that the Travelers are immortal, or at least live a loooong time
raspberrydrink
I mean they ARE baiscally aliens who know what their life span even is
fae bells
(guess how many bozos cry and complain that they're minors!!!!)
raspberrydrink
like it's a joke in the game itself???? Like clearly the Traveler doesn't consider themself one
raspberrydrink
they keep complaining they arent being allowed to drink
fae bells
but you can never ever joke about that didn't you know
fae bells
despite the fact that they are quite possibly older than fucking Morax
raspberrydrink
like yeah in universe they are clearly meant to look young so I could understand folks not wanting to see smut of them cuz of that but
raspberrydrink
they aren't... actually underage they old as balls
raspberrydrink
so you can't moralize others for it???
fae bells
sure they can
fae bells
gods there was a thing ages ago that had a list of the "minor coded" Genshins and iirc Kaeya and fucking Childe were on the list
raspberrydrink
... also it's funny cuz for all we know they look like grandparents for thier own species
raspberrydrink
LOL WHAT
fae bells
the guy constantly at the bar and the murderboi
fae bells
YEAH
raspberrydrink
Childe I could KINDA see as a teenger
raspberrydrink
BUT NOT KAEYA
fae bells
there was at one point a line in his bio that was translated as "youth" that was then fixed for "young adult" so yeah, older teenager is defs possible if unlikely
raspberrydrink
also kaeya is literally the same age as Diluc????
fae bells
raspberrydrink
like you can't have kaeya on the list if it doesn't have diluc and look me in the eye and say diluc is a minor
raspberrydrink
IF ANYTHING KAEYA LOOKS OLDER THAN HIM
fae bells
I believe Venti might have been on that list but being that he is a prettyboy twink that was unsprising if stupid
raspberrydrink
yeah he LOOK underage but he's also the second oldest of the seven wtf
fae bells
and also a wino
raspberrydrink
I hate fandom so much
fae bells
he is the wine aunt
raspberrydrink
YEAH
fae bells
yeah pro tip: look at art and read fic but do not interact with Genshin fans you do not know personally or have not been vouched for
fae bells
ain't no one got the spoons for that shit
raspberrydrink
wise advice
raspberrydrink
I learned something similar the hard way thanks to fe3h but... god
raspberrydrink
I'm too old for this shit
fae bells
FE3H has pockets of chill and has largely chilled (at least until Hopes lbr)
fae bells
Genshin has not
raspberrydrink
genshin is still ongoing so that's not surprising
raspberrydrink
AND GOD YEAH like I am hype for Hopes but
raspberrydrink
that part, not so much
fae bells
I am hype for Hopes in my own little circle of the 3H fandom
raspberrydrink
^
raspberrydrink
me on any fandom threads on twitter that don't have dimitri tiddy art these days

fae bells
honestly
fae bells
anyway Jess: what muses have you gotten 
fae bells
you haven't met the Truest Himbo yet (he's in Inazuma and voiced by Max Mittleman) so I can't make a call XD
raspberrydrink
I haven't got a full on 'I have to play them' vibe yet but I like just about everyone I've met so far
fae bells
hee
fae bells
yeah Genshin is real good for characters
raspberrydrink
also: wow it's fasinating how the scenes vibe changes when gender swapped- the performace difference betwee Aether and Lumine's vas
fae bells
speaking of: Aether's VA? Bylad's VA
raspberrydrink
Lumine's va sounds way more controlled while Aether's sounds more unsure but determined
raspberrydrink
HUH I thought he sounded familiar
fae bells
yep! Zach Aguilar!
raspberrydrink
also: okay doing some characterization theorycrafting there for the Travelers
raspberrydrink
things I've noticed: the pc Traveler is 100% ready even now to bail as SOOn as they find their sibiling
raspberrydrink
like fuck all the friends they've made or the fact that this world is still kinda fucky, nope we gonna go, now
raspberrydrink
and the abyss!traveler says something that really stuck out to me
raspberrydrink
'we've always had enough time' whcih makes me think their travels with Dain really made them realize 'hey just fucking about however we want and never using our age and power to do anything is kinda fucked up actually'
raspberrydrink
so they legit want the pc!traveler to, well, travel and mature here
raspberrydrink
.... of course assuming they will come to the exact same conclusion on who the good and bad guys are here
raspberrydrink
which, ya know, the 500 years difference miiiight chances things there buddy
raspberrydrink
^change
fae bells
and of course, we don't actually know who the Abyss Traveler sees as the bad guys
fae bells
could be a case of "they're right, but they're doing it wrong"
raspberrydrink
yeah having seen the gods, as far as we know, destroy an entire civilization and transform the pople in it? like, yeah i'd be pissed too!!!!
raspberrydrink
esp if those people were your friends
raspberrydrink
but we don't know the details, who knows what actually happened
raspberrydrink
also even if I can't brain tags I will use this unwanted time off to get caught up with the story so I can actually do events lol
DʀᴀɢɴHᴏᴍᴇᴏᴘᴀᴛʜʏ
Yeah it's very. "This doesn't match up with Venti at the very least." Add that onto the uh. "Fark tillers." Or whatever they're called and the whole saying related to them makes me go Hm!!!!
DʀᴀɢɴHᴏᴍᴇᴏᴘᴀᴛʜʏ
I def think it's a very complicated matter, but I also don't think at least the government was all that great.
raspberrydrink
yeah like I have to assume it's not as black and white as they're wanting it to come off as
raspberrydrink
like, Venti and Zhogli at least don't seem liek the Types to mass murder
DʀᴀɢɴHᴏᴍᴇᴏᴘᴀᴛʜʏ
Venti would do so much to do the opposite
DʀᴀɢɴHᴏᴍᴇᴏᴘᴀᴛʜʏ
I fully believe Khaenri'ah had something that threated the people of the world since Venti and Zhongli seem very "Eh, do whatever, it's your kingdom just don't bother our people"
raspberrydrink
lol these faces
lol these faces
raspberrydrink
it's kinda funny doing this plot stuff cuz I've had Beidou and Thoma already for awhile
raspberrydrink
guess that just kinda comes with starting long after the patch dropped lol
