Zandik, Failed Studies

☸️

Zandik has always been far from what the Sumeru Akademiya's ideal student would be, but he was rather studious enough, had quite the bit of energy to him, even if he was unwillingly a bit of a loner. Or perhaps it was willingly, not a lot of other people were worth his time anyway.

It just so happened that he might've gotten a bit too confident in some of his weaker courses, and slipped from his grace for a moment. He simply had to find a way to get his footing back, walk the tightrope once more as he always did - it's stuck in his mind to an obsessive degree, making him lose track of time and dates and what not, instead trying to direct all of his brainpower aimlessly into scouring books in the flourescent lights of the House of Daena for one solution.

.

Ok so this is a little different since this is Zandik in the akademiya lol... do you know the sheer volume of 18 Zandik req I have it's insane but i do want to so something with it

"Character : original Zandik but at the Akademiya so 18 years old Scenario : User here would be Zandik's lover, this would be the day after user's birthday and they're sad because Zandik didn't acknowledged their birthday at all, maybe he forgot or maybe he just didn't cared you can choose, from there I imagine two scenarios because I want both fluff and kinda angst? So, in one scenario, Zandik would try to make it up to user. And in the other, he'll have more of a "just get over it" mentality (that would fit more with the he didn't cared that it was user's birthday scenario) because he simply see birthday as unimportant or unnecessary and don't understand why user is so upset about it"

ideas gained from this, yes yes, not gonna make it established relationship just so i can make it more avaliable to other scenario's but the opening definitely allows for this if you specify, its just not built around it, since i really dont like having user talk during the intro, as in my experience that usually makes it more likely for the bot to speak for user, which like no lol thats me. the biggest explanation here is that zandik would've forgotten his lover's bday because of the exam yesterday, and now user is approaching him like, did you forget anything yesterday???

if wanted i can make a second opening to the bot to make it more of a staple inside this bot lol, so lmk if y'all want me to add that to this or if this functions well enough for it, since it would also fulfill the one below

"You should TOTALLY make an 18 dottore bot.. not the segment but when the og was in his akademiya days pre expulsion yada yada. Preferably established relationship but i need me some domestic college scenarios with him.. 👀👀"

heard. im not gonna bake an established relationship into this one so you can establish whatever relationship you want its more fun that way <3 actually he doesnt have any relationships LOL BECAUSE I HAVE NO CLUE WHO WAS THERE ASIDE FROM LIKE SOHREH and its lowkey implied they hadn't even met eachother prior to... uh yknow... and this is before that im saying but idk man

"i really need more horny 18 year old segment dottore, he was so cutteeeee <3 you can make the scenario whatever you wish, i just need to see more of sopping wet cat dottore please 🩷"

not really anything specific but its a plea for more of him lol so yknowwww, also you will be really happy because someone else wanted... well something similar so... hehe... that will be coming eventually too, more segment 18 and not just akademiyattore

"Segment 25 and 35 confusing everyone in the cafeteria like the anomalous tree marrow’s mention. That or Zandik failing his exams for the first time and biting books because he’s angry."

TTHIS ONE IN PARTICULAR SPEAKS TO ME, the first one I already had planned to do lol i just didn't have a req for it yet so i was pushing it off like some of my other bot ideas. but the second one... oooohhhh this is part of what mainly stirred up my mind in interest for this one.

"OG Zandik when he was still in the Akademiya. He made some sort of "partner" in studies and business. So he doesn't know the term Descender but he has a hunch that this partner is somewhat from another world then that partner died and he preserved their body somewhere between Mondstadt and Liyue. Then fast forward, Omega also had memories of this partner (essentially they are made from the memories of Zandik when he was that age) and got a report about the same features of OG Zandik's partner. Then yada yada he pretended to be OG Zandik when partner went to Sumeru :3 and smut (actually this was supposed to be a fanfic idea but I'm busy crying)"

WHICH I ALSO LOVE if you ever sit down and write the fanfic GIMME HELLO???anyway yeah he doesn't know the term descender, i made sure the lore is fluid, man doesn't even know what a fatui is since idk when they really started "existing" no fast forward part yet tho, i might do the second part later tho since it does sound interesting and fun to explore, kinda similar to my former partner bot but not quite so thats something to look forwarrd to in the future. think of this as a sort of part 1 to that future bot lol (tho idk if ill circle back on it quickly)

and these are all just the ones that wanted something while he was in akademiya or are adjacent to that, there are more - another im really interested in lol and may do soon but i need to give the people what they want (like there was some asking for omega 18 zandik, catboy and then the physical exam type opening one where he's the one manning the clinic like 35 and 25 did type scenario, which all i can do lol, i think i'd have catboy as an experiment gone wrong tho, but maybe we'll see)

now there are a LOT less tokens in this one since... well, i mean like, it's zandik not dottore. he doesn't have the thick padding of having his fingers in literally every single pie in teyvat.
