Chapter Text

First idea:

A cross over with Tales of the Abyss, where Ion, after SpoilerdisappearingSpoiler is somehow sent to Mondstadt some time before the events of the prologue.

Venti finds him, finds him and his situation interesting and brings him back together with his Anemo power, accidently making him immortal in the process ("...Oopsie~ I didn't think that will happen!").

Then, Venti proceeds to show his new friend the ways of Mondstadt, too joyous that he finally have an immortal human friend that he keeps teleporting all over the place with him in tow (And forgetting that humans can't do that...) and telling him, in detail, about each place, unknowingly gathering a crowd ("I am so happy that I finally have a "human" friend who won't die after less than a hundred years~", Venti was saying as he was twirling around with a gust of wind, "...You know how sad it was, seeing all your friends die while you continued living?". "Venti...?", "...I could only cope by sleeping...And wine...Okay, not wine, just sleeping. I love wine enough to drink it without any real meaning...", "Venti", "Do you like wine? Dandelion wine is the best in all of Teyvat! Let's drink it together soon!", "Venti!", "Huh...? What is it, Ion...?", "...There's a big crowd. I suppose it's not normal to teleport in a gust of wind...?" , "...Oh, I forgot that humans can't do that...By bad~")

Second idea:

A story where Venti is the boss of a very big spy network called "The winds" and has to gather information on how to battle some very strange and dangerous things that will destroy the world if left unchecked, with the help of his lost long twin. But, things soon get harder as a strange organization named "The gales", led by the mysterious Decarabian, is interfering with him.

Third idea:

It's a normal day when suddenly the sky darkens all over Teyvat and a strange symbol appears in the sky. Seconds later a circle with the strange symbol appears under all of the Archons' feet and a strange voice(Laced with evil magic) tells them about how nice it would be to join the dark side (Did star wars invade Genshin Impact...?), rule over the insignificant humans with an iron fist with them practically kissing the ground they walk on etc...

Due to that Archons either get possessed by a malicious energy and turn evil (Like the Tsaritsa and Raiden, who weren't really fighting the possession, since they agreed with some of it), while others fall into a comatose like state (Like Venti and Zhongli, who were fighting the possession, since they were against it). So, now the humans have to find a way to wake up the comatose-like Archons and fight against the evil Archons and the evil gods of Khaenri'ah (Who got free thanks to the malicious force) with their help.

Fourth idea (Had it just as I was about to post this):

It was Ludi harpastum and Venti got really, really drunk, like 60+ wine glasses drunk. Because he was so drunk and wanted to share his love of wine with everyone, he used his Archon powers on the wind around the city. Because it's a cracfic idea it somehow made the wind alcohol indusing, which made everyone drunk, since they still needed to breath. Hijinks ensue...

Chapter Text

First idea:

In this one, Mondstadt citizens can actually see the resemblance between the statues and Venti (And the fact he didn't change at all in 3 years. Considering he uses a teenage form, so there should be some change, however small), they just can't say anything or act upon it (Mostly to Venti himself and the traveler+Paimon. They can still discuss things between themselves and do things behind the scenes) because of a strange malicious force (Game system...?) getting in the way. Same for Zhongli and his people. And the other Archons who are "Incognito" and their people. The Archons are oblivious to it, though.

*If they would hold a meeting after the "attack near the cathedral" it's going to be pretty sad, actually...

Second idea:

Not a Venti one, since I already wrote a lot of Venti ideas. A Zhongli+Childe story where Zhongli who is a "block-head" is trying to live his everyday life as a human, failing in the most hilarious ways and Childe has to clean up after his mess, sighing the whole time. Can be called "How to human: as told by Zhongli".

Third idea:

There's a few chat fics here, but I still didn't see one in particular. An Archon chat!

It would be interesting to see what random things they could talk about between themselves (And non-Archons they sometime add to the chat) and the hijinks it will ensue.

And then there's the evil gods from Khaenri'ah with their own chat...And their evil plans...And trying to invade the Archon chat.

Fourth idea:

Not really an original idea, but should be interesting enough. Because of the changes in Teyvat, the characters of Genshin Impact are transported into the real world. Crazy hijinks ensue.

Chapter Text

First idea:

It's kind of a crackfic, when Venti is standing by the foot of his own statue and singing a sad song about his long dead friend, when suddenly Celestia hovers over the city. "Stop moping already, it had been 2600 years! You are making us depressed with your songs about him!", a strange voice is suddenly heard from it, which almost everyone is shocked about. Venti just ignores it and plays a sad tune on his lyre, "Ugh, fine! We will make an exception and bring him back! Just stop with the gloomy tune already!". Then, without any notice, Celestia unceremoniously drops Venti's friend from the sky, right on top of him, while saying "...You are lucky that your people love you so much...!", before flying away. It turns out into quite an unusual scene, in which Venti is lying on his back, with his friend right on top of him.

"...Venti...?! You are really alive now!". Because of that, his friend realizes that he is his wind spirit friend (which he says aloud) and also the reason for him taking his form. What follows is a questionnaire of "What? Where? When?", in which Venti's friend asks him questions and Venti answers them (With as much dignity as he can, considering the other is currently on top of him). When the questionnaire is over, Venti reminds his friend of their current position. After they got up Venti's friend notices the big crowd around them, which continues to get bigger. He asks him about it. "Do you see this statue?", Venti asks him instead, "They didn't realize that it was actually me...". Venti's friend looks between him, the statue and the shocked people for a few minute, then asks what every player wanted to know when they saw it, "How...? The face is pretty detailed...". Venti just shrugs to that. Hijinks ensue after that...

Second idea:

An actual happens, as fiery meteors suddenly start dropping on all of Teyvat and Khaenri'ah as well. Venti, who was sitting on the hands of his own statue at the time, while ignoring the protests of the nuns bellow, hears about it from the wind. So, before thinking, he teleports to his statue's head and uses his lyre to sing a song of protection. As the Anemo circle appears below his feet, a wind column appears around him and shoots up in the sky, creating a wind barrier to cover as much of Mondstadt as he possibly can.

*The other Archons do the same when they notice the meteors, even those who don't care much about their people, It's their domain and their people after all, so the meteors really have some nerve dropping on their land like that (The tsaritsa is madly shooting the meteors down with ice, while flinging them towards Khaenri'ah). And about Khaenri'ah...Someone even cares about Khaenri'ah...?

The meteors fall for a few minutes and by the end of it Venti is understandably weakened and can barely keep himself conscious. It's a good thing that there is a huge crowd below the statue now, since he falls unconscious soon after. Then, with Mona's reading, they find out that another fiery meteor shower would happen again, in a couple of days, a lot bigger and stronger than the last one. So they have to be ready for that.

Third idea:

A small idea I had when writing this chapter: https://archiveofourown.to/works/27452362/chapters/68572746.

A fairytale AU with Venti as the sleeping beauty! He already slept for more than 1000 years, so it fits him quite well. I wonder who will be the prince...?

Fourth idea:

Also a small one and also from writing this chapter: https://archiveofourown.to/works/27452362/chapters/68572746.

A cross over with Frozen, when Venti somehow finds his way to Arendelle (Probably after getting dead drunk) and meets the Frozen cast. The hijinks that will ensue would be interesting to see.

Chapter Text

First idea:

One I had when writting the 9th chapter of "Will the wind endure?" (Still not entirely sure where it came from...), in which Albedo is actually Dainsleif's brother, who somehow found himself in Mondstadt.

In which he lived in Khaenri'ah with his older brother (Who may not be his "brother" but actually father or grandpa since he didn't change at all in 500 years thank to the goddess of time blessing), knew Kaeya before he was sent away and ran away to Mondstadt one day (While arguing with his brother over whatever the twin has to be killed or not?), which Dainsleif didn't like at all since it somehow foils their plans. Also Dainsleif uses a time Vision, as the last one who got it from the time Archon before she changed to the "unknown goddess" she is today.

...

Anyway, it got a little weird...So I will stop here. 

Second idea:

In which the unknown goddess appears in a strange communication window, one in each main city, together with the 7 Gnoses. She starts explaining to the what they are and how exactly she got them. Here she tells everyone's human names and how interesting it is that instead of ruling over their people, they decided to live amongst them. Then she proceeds to tell that some of the Archons must already be pretty weakened without them, some almost dead. Like Barbatos, or Venti as he likes calling himself, to think that he will deliberately weaken himself by not ruling his domain and then having his Gnosis stolen from him from a Fatui Harbringer no less, who works for someone he though of as a friend. Then there's citizens of other nations, who keep saying he abandoned Mondstadt, even though he decided to leave them to their own devises because he was afraid of a repeat of what happened with Decabarian. And the Mondstadt citizens are also quite foolish, there is a huge statue of him in the city, yet even though he lived with them for 3 years, barely anyone recognized their own god. By then, a lot of people feel guilty, to the unknown goddess amusement, who looks like she plans to continue insulting everyone. That's when Venti asks her to stop and the other Archons (Some worried for him, like Zhongli and Murata. While others feeling guilty, like tsaritsa) also join the discussion. Then, the unknown goddess decides to use her powers to attack the seven nations, prompting the already weakened Archons to use their own powers to protect them.

Third idea:

I am not really sure where this idea came from, but it goes like this:

Somehow, Venti finds himself in the Dragon ball super multiverse, on Beerus's planet. After some initial surprise (And finding out who he is thanks to Whis), Beerus decides to let Venti stay with them since he came to like his songs(That are surprisingly calming and very nice to fall asleep to). Then, other gods and people start finding out about him as well, until the news reaches the Grand Priest with his two "Maniacal kids", who he has trouble calming down recently.

Fourth idea:

So, it's a normal day(though strange things keep happening, like no rain at all and plants starting to die), when suddenly a strange goddess appears over Mondstadt and starts attacking it. Venti isn't going to have that, so he interferes by creating a barrier around the city. It was actually what the unknown goddess wanted, for him to reveal himself. She proceeds to tell him how she killed all the other Archons and stole their Gnoses, which makes Venti so mad he transforms into his Archon form and tries to kill her. The unknown goddess reveals how she killed everyone so easily: she can control time and just unmake them. Which she proceeds to do to Venti (Also revealing that while Archons of the main 7 elements can be rplaced, there has to be an Archon of each element at a time, if there isn't any for a long time, things could get really bad. Which what started to happen, with no rain etc. She then wonders in a mocking voice what will happen after she unmakes Venti, will the wind and wind currents disappear or air itself. "Isn't it ironic, the one who everyone mocks for "abandoning" his people, is the one whose element is the most important. As unlike with other element, without air, humans will die in seconds". ), which would have worked if not for Paimon's sudden interference, as she breaks the unknown goddess hold on Venti(with the last of his power, he manages to snatch the other Gnoses away) and teleports with her away. After what happened, Venti pretty much falls unconscious, to the worry of his people (Who were horrified before and started to get relieved...Which appeared to be too soon...).

Chapter Text

First idea:

An "Evil" story idea, where all the humans get possessed by some malicious force overnight and are actively, against their will (They know what they are doing, but their bodies move by themselves, as if by a puppeteer) ,hunting their own Archons (And destroying things associated with them). Which turns out pretty bad when they find out that Barbatos is Venti ("...What are you doing...?", Venti asks in shock and complete confusion when he sees them trying to destroy his statue. "...Venti...? N-no...Get out of here...!", Jean barely manages to say, as everyone turns around towards him. "...Eh? Why...? Whoa!", he exclaims as teleports a few feet away, almost getting hit by numerous attacks, "...Why are you attacking...?! Wait...", he exclaims in complete shock, before pausing, "...Mind control...? No...Body control...?! H-how did this...?!" ) and Rex Lapis is very much alive as Zhongli ("...Why are you attacking me...?", Zhongli asks as he blocks a sudden attack with his spear and then evading a few others, "...Is this because of what I did...? I heard that my plan was overly excessive, but I didn't think you would be so mad that you try to...Huh...?", he suddenly paused, looking shocked, "...You are possessed...By a completely unknown entity...How...?"). Also, it turns out that one of the possessed in each nation has a weapon coated with the malicious force, that is poisonous to elementals, which Venti finds out the hard way. Though, thankfully the traveler swoops in while riding on Dvalin (Who Venti has to stop from killing everyone in revenge) before it can get any worse. Venti realizes what the poison is, but can only say the name and what it does before falling unconscious.

Second idea:

An idea where the Genshin Impact game and trailers somehow reached Teyvat (Which is AU with magic+technology). The people who decided to play the game and see the trailers, are of course get very shocked by what they find out. And there are some that get really "Inconvenienced" by the sudden attention. Then complete chaos ensues (Especially when someone tries to smuggle to game and the trailers to Khaenri'ah). Like: Zhongli, because he doesn't fully understands why everyone is suddenly mad at him and wants to have a proper vacation, runs to Mondstadt where Venti is pretty much under house arrest, because he is prone to running into danger. And some people(And not only people) are on a hunt for Signora, some for Childe and the Tsaritsa somehow gets a big "present" from Klee. Also some people start researching on the "fake stars and sky" as well as the unknown goddess, Paimon etc.

And then, when everyone though that the chaos was over (More or less), Honkai Impact(All 3 instalments) reaches Teyvat as well.

Third idea:

An idea I had from playing the last event and that "Archon's rival" quest name, in which the traveler get's back to Mondstadt(City) to ask Venti about Durin. And it turns out that the sword harbors Durin's "soul" in it and now it's trying to possess Venti (Saying that it's more challenging that possessing humans, but still possible unlike with the traveler. So, "It's amusing~"), saying that he would become a "better" Anemo Archon than Venti ever was and rule over the people like he should have from the start. Venti doesn't want that, at all, so he tries to stop the possession forcefully, in the most painful way possible (By turning his lyre into a sword and...Well...He really doesn't want to become a second Decarabian...). Some people get really traumatized after that, especially since for a long time(Which is a few minutes, but to everyone feels like ages) no one knows for sure if Venti is alive or dead...

Fourth idea:

In which, Teyvat decided to celebrate a holiday they never had before: Christmas, which they somehow heard of (It was actually Venti, because his spy network/winds is top notch). Since they had no idea what they are actually doing, it turns quite strange, like: Santa looking like a fusion between a Cryo and a Pyro Abyss mages, Albedo, Sucrose and Timaeus (The name reminds me of Timaeus from Yu-Gi-Oh) make a prototype of the tree in Windrise(Since it's big enough, but they can't take it with them) which is unstable as it flickers in and out of existence as it stays in the middle of the city, the "star" at the tip of it is a random eye of the storm Venti somehow attached there and a bunch of Klee's "presents" are found under the "tree". 

Chapter Text

First idea:

The Fatui found some very dangerous artifact, which they try to use on the Mondstadt citizens. Venti gets in the way at the last second. Somehow, to the shock of everyone in the area, he splits in 3: Wind spirit Venti, Anemo Archon Venti and Bard Venti. Even the Ventis are confused ("...Huh...There's three of us now...I didn't think that would happen...", the three Venti's said at the same time, as they shared glances, "Do you know how this happened exactly...? It's better than being dead, but still feels strange..."). "Should I go hide now...?", Archon Venti awkwardly asks. "...I don't think it will help anymore...", Bard Venti says. "Yes, they already know.", Wind spirit Venti added, "They practically turned to statues from shock.".

"Well, at least something good came out of this. Now that there's 3 of us, we won't be alone anymore!", the three Venti's simulately say, "We will no longer be depressed and have suicidal thoughts because everyone keeps dying, since we would have each other!".

"It's hard to drink wine in this form!", wind spirit Venti cries out. "We will help you out!", both Anemo Archon Venti and Bard Venti say at the same time, before checking wind spirit Venti up and down and suddenly lighting up, "...We were actually pretty cute back then, weren't we...? Simply adorable~ Do you think this makes us into Narcisists...?".

After some more talking and thinking about what to do with the artifact now, they have a briliant idea: "How about we use it on Rex? He has his Archon form, his Exuvia form and a bunch of mortal forms that he took over the years! It would be so funny to see a bunch of Rexies running all over the place, yelling "I will have order!" , wouldn't it...?". They decide that Archon Venti should bring them to Liyue, since he has the most control of the winds right now. That's when people started to get out of their stupor and Jean tried to stop the Ventis from making things even weirder for everyone...

...

Anyway...

...

...

Anyone here thinks that one Venti is not enough and wants to write a story with three...?

Chapter Text

First idea:

This one is a crossover with Star wars, where Klee, who has Pyromaniac tendencies (And thus the perfect person for the job...Probably.), becomes a Sith lord at a young age and her journey to become Palpatine's apprentice and finally his successor, dooming the whole universe to a fiery demise.

Second Idea:

In this one different characters from Genshin Impact of the Earth, Water, Fire and Wind Visions/Gnoses somehow (Might be because of Venti...But he is not going to confess. Nope. ) turn out in the ATLA universe. And they appear sometime after Katara and Sokka find Aang. Some crazy hijinks ensue while the ATLA gang try to save their world from the fire nation and make sure their new friends don't blow up the place ("Klee goes Kaboom!"), get drunk and terrorize the area with a hurricane ("Ehe!"), send meteors raining down from the sky ("I will have order!") etc, while the GI gang are exploring the new world (And trying to destroy it...Kind of.) and for a way to get back home. And instead of coming back by themselves, the GI gang somehow get the ATLA gang with them to Teyvat, because "The more, the merrier! Ehe!", so why not.

Third idea:

This idea is one I had after writing this chapter: https://archiveofourown.to/works/28610190/chapters/71295720. What if after Venti and Barbara exchanged bodies, they never managed to switch back, even with everyone's help and research on the matter. So, now Barbara has to learn from Venti (Who is feeling guilty for the whole thing) and the winds (Whom Barbara finally got used to) how to be the Anemo Archon and use her powers, the advantages and the downsides of it. She is understandably very overwhelmed, especially since it's a lot of new things to learn and get used to (And she used to worship the Anemo Archon, but now she's one herself?! She still can't believe that it happened!). At the same time Venti pretty much got proficient in using the Hydro Vision, since it's "primitive" compared to his former Gnosis.

Fourth idea:

One I had since I written this chapter: https://archiveofourown.to/works/27452362/chapters/69160353, but forgot to write about. Which is basically the invasion going into another direction, as instead of hiding in hopes of gathering information, Venti decides to use a more direct approach: wearing a disguise before attacking Signora herself in hopes of stealing back his Gnosis, putting it back where it belongs and defending Mondstadt with more of his powers now. Which doesn't turn out as expected...At all. People still find out who he is, he still get attacked, he gets Jean killed when she tries to intervene in his and Signora's sudden contract and he himself afterwards snaps and kills off all the Fatui in his rage. A version of events where things somehow went worse...
