Inazuma finally finds a period of peace long enough for Raiden Shogun to go on vacation, but as usurpers are harder to kill than cockroaches, the throne isn’t left empty long before a familiar face comes back - and she’s bringing hell with her.
This story is being uploaded to my Blogger for archival purposes. It was originally posted to my DeviantArt on September 14, 2023.
First things first, MASSIVE SPOILER WARNING: This story contains extensive and recurrent mentions of the ending of the Inazuman storyline of Genshin Impact. Reader discretion is HEAVILY advised, and it is STRONGLY recommended to have full knowledge of the canon story up to the end of Chapter 2, Act 3 as prerequisite material.
Secondly, and more importantly, THIS STORY IS NOT MINE! Or at least, not entirely. It was actually commissioned this past September from CrookedIsStrange, though I did make some pretty extensive edits to strengthen the narrative and add further exposition, context, and fun little gags in the dialogue on the part of every single character featured in it. Crooked has given me express permission to share it here on ArchiveOfOurOwn, and in accordance with their being the one who wrote the majority of it to start with, it is entirely unchanged from the original DeviantArt upload on their gallery. This fic was very much an odd duck among the stories they prefer to write personally, but if you do find you've enjoyed it upon finishing it, I highly recommend checking out and supporting the rest of their work by clicking or tapping the link above to their dA page! You'll need to have an account there and to of course be of legal age to read almost all of it since it's mature content, of course, but other than that, you'd do well to check out Crooked's work if you enjoy embarrassed nude women, spanking, and wedgies especially!
In no small part thanks to my own contributions, this story came out more or less absolutely perfectly for my own very subjective tastes, and I couldn't be happier with the final commissioned product. The only thing missing is the involvement of my personal favorite Genshin girl, Ganyu, but since she's from Liyue, her absence was sadly unavoidable. If you wanted to see her own gloriously thicc full moons falling victim to tons of slapstick injury, though, worry not - I'm already making plans for a separate hotbuns fic with her as the primary (and only) victim! I still have a lot of prepaid commissions to get through before then, of course, but I can promise here and now that if Teyvat's cutest Cocogoat thought she was safe from my canon-soiling depravity, she'd be VERY sadly mistaken. ;P

________________________________________
Eternity was too long to go without a day off. Raiden was skeptical: it’d be the first time Inazuma’s shogun went on vacation… literally. In the history of history, the godly gal woke up thinking about preserving the timeless integrity of her nation and went to bed on that same, dull note. Only once the Traveller had fanned away her dreams of keeping her citizens under permanent obsolescence did she start thinking about kicking her feet up.
Shimmering, blue lagoons, gorgeous views from the mountaintops and reservations for Yun Jin’s ‘dinner and a show,’ ‘send us a postcard from Liyue!’ The Traveler even helped her pack. In all ways that matter, she had her to thank for such a peaceful transition of power.
The days that had followed had been largely uneventful. It was business as usual, and business was booming now that the archipelago had been allowed to open up to the rest of the world once more. If anything, the Traveler’s assistance had enabled it to thrive more than ever! So it was that time flew by as it is wont to do, and before long, it was a mere three days before the shogun’s return. All of Inazuma City had pitched in for a massive welcome-back ceremony, for which the final preparations were currently underway, and excitement was running high. Who knew what gifts and new insights Raiden would bring back from Liyue to share with her people for the first time in over a millennium?
And, for that matter… What, if anything, could possibly go wrong?
