Summary
""It was interesting, at first, to notice how huma— ahem, how other humans talked about death. But then she offered me a funeral package.”
Neuvillette closes his eyes. He doesn’t want to talk about this. He doesn’t want to have to think about it, not when it will be inescapable soon enough. Live, he wants to beg her. Stay with me forever. It would be so easy to ensure her survival. But she has lived far longer than any human would wish to, and withstood far more pain and fear than any other human could have survived. He has no right to ask this of her.
“Did you take it?” He asks. He does not want to know the answer."
Furina returns from Liyue with a newfound lease on life.

Summary
Loki gets a chance to change everything. The Norns, having become tired of Odin's meddling in the Weave, have decided enough is enough. Death sees this as a chance to plead their case, asking for Loki to go through the trials needed to become the Master of Death. In order to stop Thanos, Loki would agree to anything, knowing what is coming, and so he does. Hera Potter grows up not knowing who she'd been, what she is expected to go through, or that she's already fighting for something greater than herself. As the barriers fall between this life and the last, Hera will have to navigate through who she was to stay who she is. She was Loki once, but she is more than that now, and she will fight to keep it and the life she's made. If that means flinging her soul across time and space, or using the knowledge she has to navigate through a future she should not know, she'll do it. Who is Thanos to threaten everything she loves? Who is Dumbledore to think a child should be responsible to win a war? And where does Odin get off thinking he had any say at all?

Summary
"She's...she's gone?" Furina says, soft and uncertain in a way she's still not sure she's allowed. There's the familiar panic, of course - the surety that she messed up, that the act was slipping; the urge to claw out her composure until it tore her face into a smile. The old fatigue, too, but that had always been the easiest to push down. "Mir– Focalors. The, um, Hydro Archon. She's gone?"
"...yes," Neuvillette says, with a complex expression. "She was condemned to death by the Oratrice, and bore it's judgment to fulfill the prophecy. Her role in Fontaine has at last concluded, Lady Furina." He looks at her again, gaze softening further. "...as has yours."
Furina talks to Neuvillette after her trial, after the flood, and after her role is finally over.
(An extra scene at the end of the 4.2 Archon Quest, before the Traveler meets Neuvillette at the entrance to the Fortress of Meropide)

Summary
furina buries her face into his chest like she’s hiding. when she speaks next, it’s muffled against his clothes, spoken so softly neuvillette has to strain himself to hear. “but i wish you won’t hurt me like that again.”
neuvillette hugs her tight. he tucks her head beneath his chin so that she would not see him cry, and murmurs a quiet promise into her hair.
“never.”
never, never again.

Summary
"Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”
Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.
Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?
Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.
And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

Summary
Tartaglia was 26 when he died. Ajax was 14 when he woke up again in the snow. Burdened by a past life no one else remembers, Ajax flees his homeland, taking shelter on the desolate mountain far to the east. He is alone—exactly as planned—until one day he stumbles across a hurting dragon.
( Zhongli/Ajax isn't a driving force of the story, but it's definitely there. Other characters—like pretty much everyone—will make appearances; I'm only tagging key figures to keep from tag-clutter. )

Summary
A mass grave is discovered at the edge of the desert, and in it 20 corpses with strange circuitry-like marks on their skin, and masks fused to their faces – masks inscribed with a strange, nearly extinct language that can only be read by a dangerous, reclusive Eremite Tribe . . . and, inexplicably, by Alhaitham.
Perhaps he should be more bothered by the fact that he never actually studied or learned this language than he is, but as Alhaitham heads out to investigate the grave with Cyno, to learn what happened to these people, there are plenty more pressing problems to worry about. Assassins, betrayal, and ancient secrets plague them on their path to uncover a dangerous plot that threatens all of Sumeru, and suddenly it’s all they can do to survive. With allegiances shifting like the desert sands and primordial powers stirring, Cyno suddenly finds himself unsure of who can really be trusted, while Alhaitham . . . Alhaitham finds himself in a fight for his very soul . . .
