This is purely self-indulgence, but im thinking about genshin jayvik again
Jayce a young man from natlan going out to explore all of tevat, leaving natlan for the first time in his life on a journey to being granted a vision of his own. He is so fascinated by visions its his lifes dream to have one
Viktor a scientist born in shneznaya but tragically orphaned when hes only three, being raised in the house of the harth in Fontaine under crucabenas care. Due to his disability he is deemed to weak and handed of to dottore who takes him to his "hospital" in the sumeru desert to experiment on him
He agonizingly works for months to plan his escape and finally succeeds when he's 16. When he finally sees the sunlight for the first time in years, he is granted a cryo vision. He hops on a nearby cargo ship that sails of to mondstadt where he works with albedo and sucrose in dragonspine
Thats when he meets jayce, who just started his journey, he is so fascinated by everything, all the local traditions and the scenery but also viktors vision. He tells viktor his plans for the journey and viktor tells him that hes been to a few different regions before. Jayce asks him to tag along
So he decides hell yeah, why not. Viktor has never been sure of where home is for him, so why not just figure it out like that. It's smothered sailing from there. They meet so many people and see so many sights... until they get to Fontaine.
Jayce drags viktor along to watch a magic show
Its by these two young twins in the opera house who are actually quite skilled but while watching viktor overheard one of the other audience member whisper "hard to belief they're from the house of the harth" to another. Viktor just freezes in an instant because he needs to protect these kids
After the show jayce and him walk up to them jayce for an autograph viktor to ask if they need help to get away from "mother" and the twins (lyney and lynette) are like: ? Do you mean Father? And then fucking arlechino walks up to them to congratulate them on a good show. Viktors mind breaks
Because holy hell, that's peruer. That's his older sister from back then. It takes her a second to recognize viktor, but when she does, it's immediate. Cue a heartfelt reunion between long lost siblings siblings and a history lesson for vik about everything that happened meanwhile jayce is terrified Thats a fatui harbinger in the flesh hes only ever heard story's about them before
