skrunklies
kaveh
silly. he's so silly. he's also the most me i've ever felt about a character. didn't get people kinning characters until this guy dropped. in terms of writing i absolutely love the ideological conflict between him and haitham regarding the status of genius and fitting in like that's so interesting.
childe
the original skrunkly. he is so fruit. i love fatui shenanigans in general, but this guy is just too fucked in the head to NOT be my favourite. fav thing to do when i rotate him in my head is to think about his family's rejection of him (apart from the young ones that don't know any better) and whether it's justified or not, and how much it hurts regardless.
babygirl
no i didn't actually name him that. his lore is sooo confusing but anything for him. trans scara is absolutely 100% real (to me at least). i want to put him in the microwave. his characterisation in my head is absolutely hideously wrong but idc anymore he's like my OC at this point.
ayaka
okay hear me out. the fanservice hurts me yes but i can be delusional and pretend. she's so lonely and i love bullying characters in my head so win-win. the pressure put on her by her family, the loneliness, the everyone-knows-of-me-but-nobody-really-knows-me? so good.
yoimiya
she's so interesting to me. you wouldn't get it. i haven't played her second story quest yet so maybe this is big duh to everyone but there's something so sad about her. one of those people who you're friends with for a long time and they're happy and then you realise you don't actually know anything about them as a person or their secrets. the scene at the end of her first story quest, watching the fireworks!!
haitham
have been going kind of stupid over him lately because of kavehtham. he is so autism coded i love him.
aether
i'm not sexist i just think he's cute. lumine can also get it but i am specifically attached to this one for reasons yet unknown. he is perhaps babygirl. the nonbinary serve is astronomical. also for traveler in general there is so much untapped potential in the fact that they have to move on to the next nation... no time for permanent relationships with anyone. and the fact that the quest to find their sibling just gets more delulu as time goes on... the people around them get fed up that they're so attached to the past when the twin clearly doesn't even want to be found, much less saved...
keqing
wife. what more do you need she's fucking purple. i have her skin and i do not regret it. jokes aside the only way she is bearable at all personality wise is that i have latched onto the idea of her essentially being a religious heretic with her distrust in the gods. like that's so cool. you go funky purple atheist.
nilou
she's so cute. and that's it! there is nothing behind those eyes. i just think her hair is cool tbh i cut and dyed mine like it a while ago
kaeya
fanon interpretation of him is UNBEARABLE. can you guys not see he has abandonment issues he's not a cheater. i think he's neat also i think he is me. in terms of emotional disregulation at least. bro never says what he means or what he's feeling and i respect that.
kokomi
definition of slay. genshin has never gone this hard with a character design before and i fear they never will again. they fumbled SO HARD with her personality and significance in the story i really wanted them to play her up as like a true political adversary to the shogun it's what she deserves :( i still think i'm not like other girls for being a kokomi main. her NAs hit 14k buffed with vaporize.
jean
i am probably the most delusional about her. i absolutely cannot stand lisa but i still think jean is gay. it's the older sister feelings, the estranged siblings, the divorce trauma, the forced to grow up too young... no more overworked female characters though please there's only so much i can take
