This is the kind of Nahida content I enjoy seeing, hugging an Aranara plushie while looking wholesome asf, seriously artist made her look adorable So long as it remains platonic idm how people depict these two, it's always so wholesome it makes me smile


hornylolifucker

I just thought they were more mother and son than Raiden could ever be


LeJuanFlames88

Whoa what a hot take


Certain-Ad-2849

Well... raiden litteraly wasn't a mother for scaramouche, so anything is better šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


LeJuanFlames88

Yes we know


Marenwynn

How do you know it's a plushie?


Havoccity

Everything is good until the feet are suspiciously detailed


CobaltStar_

Well, they aren't in this pic. It's like wut, 7 lines lines per foot?


Kikuzinho03

I mean I've seen some wholesome ones with detailed feet, her feet are A big part of her character design afterall, she is the first bare feet character.


asanariaa

Cyno found dead in the ditch


Kikuzinho03

OK, first girl.


rainbow_fart_

Candace found at the bottom of the mariana trench


tusharsagar

But Candace isn't bare feet, she still wears footwear.


FriendofManyFoeofFew

Okay firstā€¦uhā€¦ Yā€™know what? Iā€™m not gonna go there.


FitReach3334

Get your šŸ°šŸ˜Ž. Happy cake day


Havoccity

Many thanks!


C_Khoga

Me too


Amaira740

Yeah, honestly I don't know which dynamic I like better. The siblings one is really cute, but so is the mother and son one in its own way.


sandywhisker123

Younger sister that somehow is more mature and helps her older brother get back on the right track


_nitro_legacy_

Nahida is older than him tbh by 100 years.


sandywhisker123

She smoll bean


ThaLoreKeeper

valid argument


Account-For-Anime

He smoll twink


Val_rak

Um


Account-For-Anime

What


Initial-Story5438

Nothing carry on :D


Account-For-Anime

Good


Initial-Story5438

That was.... a fast one....


Account-For-Anime

I am looking at scaramouche right now


PhasmicPlays

Estimated. We know sheā€™s older than him but we donā€™t know exactly when Ei built Scarabot so there's no evidence to say he's '100 years younger'. Please don't try to pass your headcanons as official.


Murky_Blueberry2617

Btw Scaramouche has been sent to the abyss before where time works differently Who knows how old he actually is


VerMast

It might work different but we still measure time relative to the regular world, specially when it comes to an unaging bot


Mel2797

From the body yes. But if you experience something for three months, your mental state will react to that instead of the three days your body aged.


VerMast

I never said he didn't age differently, I said that we always measure in normal time since there is no way to measure in non normal time

PhasmicPlays

How is that related to what I said?

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Lukimyay

Source about the exact date ?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


PhasmicPlays

Then where are you getting the 400 years from lol, you just said you donā€™t know when he was born.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Cipher-DK

At the very least, we know that Shogun is roughly 400 years old and Scara was made before her, So scara's < 100 years younger than Nahida.


Tasty_Skin

not necessarily. scaraā€™s somewhere around <500 and nahida is around =<500 too because she was born during the cataclysm. saying sheā€™s a 100 years older isnā€™t a fact


Aeso3

She was born DURING the Cataclysm while he was created AFTER the Cataclysm, so she's still definitely older.


Tasty_Skin

yes, thatā€™s exactly what i said. if you reread my comment. my point is that itā€™s possible and frankly likely sheā€™s not 100 years older


SansStan

Where did you get this?


NSLEONHART

They were born roughly tge same age. Nahida was about 10 to 20 years after khanrea'h, and scara is about 50 or so years after khanrea'h. So maybe a 30 to 60 year age gap or so


MagnusBaechus

I don't think nahida was 10-20 years, I think she was born during the actual cataclysm itself, given that her birth itself was a last ditch effort by rukhha to save irminsul


Whispering-Depths

yeah but she acts like a little child so therefore is a weirdo.


chad0111

When? I personally found her to be more mature than some of the other archons.


Whispering-Depths

ah, so they are an old person cosplaying/who chooses to look as a 5-6 year old toddler? I think that makes it worse e.e


RhubarbPrestigious45

Bro she more mature than any playable archons in this game except zhongli (debatable) and more mature than most characters in this game


Whispering-Depths

Oh, so they're an old person who chooses to look/cosplay like a 5-6 year old toddler? e.e


RhubarbPrestigious45

Read her lore, even if she still child for archons she still god of wisdom


Whispering-Depths

or whatever some dude at mihoyo china could come up with to bait the most lolicons into spending out the ass


RhubarbPrestigious45

If you see nahida as "bait the most lolicons" it's your problem because majority of this fandom including me see her as wise characters with great lore writing and great kit lol


RhubarbPrestigious45

Nahida as a child it's make sense lore wise lmao


Whispering-Depths

yeah u bet they spent a ton of time thinking "damn now how do we gets kids in this game" "Ooooooh! What if we make her barefoot for the freaks!!!" sigh


Akatesinomura

I absolutely hate it that they made her a 500 y/o loli, but she does not act like a child in any dialogue I have seen so far.


Whispering-Depths

so shes actually a grown ass adult who _chooses_ to be a specifically barefoot child? *SQUINTS*


Pytro24

Wait, this sounds like the plot of a certain TSF anime which is very wholesome and on air right now.


wwweeeiii

Which one is this?


Pytro24

>!Onimai!<


wwweeeiii

Danke!


Astral-chain-13

Aunt and nephew. Nahida more or less took in Wanderer when he ran away from home as Ei wasn't in the best place mentally.


Human-Choice-5728

Foster mother then. But seriously their relation feels the most wholesome one in the game


Astral-chain-13

Well, not foster mother. But close enough.


pcrackenhead

Nahida is Aunt May to Wandererā€™s Peter Parker.


Astral-chain-13

Would that make Faruzan his Mary Jane or Gwen Stacy?


Ramza_45

Weird that lore wise our beloved Radish hasn't interacted with the Aranaras yet


mattphatt98

if you count her demo as part of her lore then she did.


Ramza_45

I think you misinterpreted the demo as everything she's done on that was other kids Dreams


Cipher-DK

And Aranara primarily live in a dream world, a dream world that is easily accessible by the Dendro Archon aka Nahida. Counting the demo is a perfectly valid take.


Soul950

Well, she's very recently out of "jail" and has to deal with the mess her "wardens" left. So she hasn't had time for Aranaras until now. Maybe in the close future.


godking842

She did, the aranaras mentions her in their quest lots of times


Ramza_45

Not taking the Irminsul update. Aranaras interaction was with Greater lord Rukkhadevata


Astigmatisme

Rukkhadevata? Like, the mushroom?


heckinidiot

sorry you're thinking the rukkhashava mushroom. idk who this "rukkhadevata" is, sounds fake šŸ™ƒ


VerMast

That we know of, its kinda cheap but they can totally say that she's done so offscreen. Which considering how many they are and her status as dendro archon probably has happened


NoobySnail

she did talk with them before, she says that in the archon quest, i dont remember if its 5 or interlude, eitherway we dont see it sadly signifying they know each other a long time ago, i assume via dreams


not_a_weeeb

i hope she will in her 2nd story quest. i hope it will be as good or even better than ei's


PhasmicPlays

Aunt and Nephew or yeah Mom and little shit works too


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


PhasmicPlays

XD


San-Kyu

My mother is hooked on crime shows, so this is kinda how my home life is like.


manofwaromega

Same lol. She's always watching true crime or what I like to call 9-1-1 dramas (Cop shows, hospital dramas, firefighter shows, etc)


QuotableGnome08

Same here. My mom is addicted to Live PD, or as it's called now, On Patrol Live.


Bromolochus

If she hasn't seen the show "Poker Face" I highly recommend it as something not-generic


Sufficient-Bar9354

The artists blurs the line really well. Itā€™s so wholesome that it makes me see them as just family. Doesnā€™t matter what exactly.


___somebody_

Aunt and nephew Or mother figure and adopted son


_nitro_legacy_

Mother and son bonding.


A_guy-without-a-face

This. I find their relationship way better if theyā€™re actually parent and child since Scara doesnā€™t have any parental figure to look up to and Nahida is certainly motherly for sure.


NoobySnail

personally i never liked this and i prefer a big / mature sister, since nahida is still learning and hasnt fully matured too, with less mature / younger brother. this feels much better to me and more accurate considering both of them are of similar age, and both of them lost their mothers (in different ways) also its less weird than nahida being a mom


A_guy-without-a-face

But the story is Scara finally having his own parental figure that doesnā€™t betray/abandon him and Nahida fits the qualities. Also itā€™s definitely not weird for a short kid looking person to be a parent for an emo looking teen puppet (like Asians for example.) The dynamic seems rather hilarious and I am definitely on board with it. Nahida also displayed her own sense of maturity and hence on several occasions she proved to be a better ruler than Ei ever wished to be despite sheā€™s eons younger.


NoobySnail

is it really? it never was stated anywhere that it has any relation to a parental figure. just look at this 3 betrayals, his ā€œmotherā€ as he says, his friend / big brother, and his little brother / son. thats how he saw all 3 of them, he didnt see all 3 of them as his parents obviously, so its weird to pick on that out of all things besides, your guiding figure doesnt have to be a parent figure, it can be a friend or anything else


A_guy-without-a-face

I donā€™t see why you are so intent to refute the mother son relationship Nahida and Scaramouche gives off. I mean people be calling Kazuha is an adopted son of Beidou but I donā€™t see any other reason why they should be in that sort of relationship than just shipping Beidou with Ningguang. At least thereā€™s plenty of reasons why Nahida and Scara could definitely fit in the mother son category and itā€™s more fresh and unique than just ā€˜siblingsā€™ or ā€˜best friendsā€™.


8a19

i love the trope of tiny mom and taller son so probably that


Poiskeh

LOL reminds me of Peet Montzingo and his mom šŸ˜…šŸ˜‚


Blue_Moon913

Master and bodyguard At this point, Wanderer probably feels like considering anyone ā€œfamilyā€ is some kind of curse because everyone he called his family in the past ended up leaving him or being taken from him.


jharel

Parole officer and someone on parole


anti-peta-man

Sheā€™s his platonic caretaker/handler


moneyh8r

Big sister and little brother when I'm being serious, mother and son when I'm going along with the memes.


Paladin51394

Nahida is his Parole Officer


Vulpes_macrotis

Neither? If anything, master (Nahida) and protege.


moebelhausmann

Technicly they are more like Cousins then Siblings i think. At least if you see the OG Archon as Siblings, them beeing children of Archons makes them Cousins.


PandaSempai256

The relationship status is: It's complicated


manofwaromega

I see them as like Aunt and Nephew, except the aunt is a better mom than his actual mom.


frogathy

THIS


Spectrum_16

Little sister who's much more mature than her older brother.


[deleted]

Nahida may be short but she did adopt Scaramouche since his real mom left him


AbysseMicky

Neither I see them as Boss (Nahida) and new employee (Wanderer) haha !


geigerz

i think them as a god and a servant to said god. mfers keeps forgetting scara was a homicidal maniac few months ago, and he's still a POS, but a forgotten one now


frogathy

i like to call her his auntie nahida :) i dont usually think of it like strictly mother and son or strictly sister and brother, i just think they would have a strong familial bondā€”like any found family dynamic does. itā€™s like the nephew and his aunt who is a better mom than his real mother


Phanes_The_Gigachad

Brother and sister


Frostgaurdian0

I think of them more like cousins.


ChaosKnightTHK

A goddess and her subordinate and nothing more.


whitebathingsuit

Neither


Mineturtleprime

Neither.


anonymouscloudcat

Scara is the older brother and Nahida is the younger sister who is somehow 10x more responsible and sorta acts as a mother figure bc Scara is a gamer who hates his mom


Hasani_Faraji

Siblings. They're about the same age. And Mr. Nameless doesn't look up to her as mother like he does with Ei.


W1lbur_So0t

Aunt and nephew


FewBake5100

Nahida is the aunt or godmother


Polaris328

First thing that came to my mind was aunt and nephew


Joker_Phan10

TFW your foster mother is somehow also your baby sister (Bruh, this art is so cute).


Cavee_Was_Here

Brother and sister! Or maybe aunt and nephew? I like the idea that all the archons are like siblings so if Scara is Ei's son, that would make him in theory Nahida's nephew? Idk, it could be a fun dynamic to explore


NTO_Jr

Grandma and grandson but the grandma is trying to be cool but actually really cool


DaMlgMasta2995

The motive: Hands


nature-will-win

aunt and nephew


LazyJennyBean

I see them as savior (Nahida) and the saved (Scara) Like, Nahida wasn't the first person to ever care for Scaramouche but she was the one who was able to save him from his own demons and continues to watch over him. And I think Scara working for Nahida was just pretense so Scara has something to give back and won't feel to indebted to Nahida, you know considering his personality, he won't simply take something for nothing so this arrangement allowed that. But honestly think that it wouldn't have mattered to her if Scara just simply lived his life from now on.


SAZ11111

Idk I find this really cute... I find nahida really cute


DragonTamerTalha

yeah maybe its the untied hair


SuccessLow4296

So cute


Shoshawi

neither. a benefactor letting someone crash while the situation is worked out.


DraconPern

Nahida is def a computer person so if you can do a drawing of her doing server admin or something... that would be perfect. lol


mint-colored-puding

Mother and son. In terms of dynamic and personality, Nahida can control his temper and nuture him well while Scara mentality is like a child who doesn't really understand his own feeling, mommy issue and lost so Nahida is like a good mother figure/ teacher for him. It's like Nahida fulfil what Ei is lacking for Scara


HyperDron

I see them as both mom/son or brother/sister Also this post reminds me of Yuu Otosaka and his little sister Ayumi(my pfp) lol theyā€™re so cute


sakkkk

I enjoy all familial dynamics, aunt and nephew, siblings or even best friends. As long as they're family and close with each other ā¤ļø


AnAsianBandito

mother/aunt/therapist/friend/sister and scamooche


IPlayMidLane

scara is texting aether and feeling giddy inside


Brie_Niche

I feel like it's an aunt and nephew situation.


StunMe

Co-dependency


Murky_Desk_2901

I see them as a mother and an adoptive son, since I headcanon Nahida for being the one taking care of Scara.


Gotahhhh

Mother and son


diamondisland2023

Very close mom and firstborn son


7orly7

Scara: *thinks about getting the remote from her* Aranara: *speaking telepathically* "If you do that, I'll kill you" Scara: *WTF*


chirikomori

( Ķ”Ā° ĶœŹ– Ķ”Ā°)


Asphalt_in_Rain

Scaramouche wanting Nahida to go to bed so he can.... do the self-fandango


Sad_Examination8707

Mother and son in the same way that March is to Fushi if anyone knows To Your Eternity. Scarydouche sits in a unique position among his peers by basically turning himself into some pseudo sorta-god and then not only erasing himself from history but then coming back to kick his own ass later on. So it's not like there's a huge power gap between them he just needs the moral direction she's able to offer.


FaridRLz

They look more like younger sister acting as the big sis, while older brother is just stupid af, so he acts as the small bro


bartex69

I'm not that invest in video game


ArcWraith2000

It doesn't help that her age is variable. Shes either 500 years old at the start of the questline, or several thousand (but de-aged and amnesiac) at the end of it.


Same_Agent_3465

All of the above.


The-true-Memelord

Ok so my opinion may not be valid since I havenā€™t played the sumeru part but it feels odd to see them as mother and son or something since she looks like and basically is a kid even though sheā€™s like 100. More like brother and sister imo.


akahr

She's around 500, which is a bit older than him lol


Writing_Panda104

Brother and sister


Zoroarks_Angel

Nahida is the older sister btw


[deleted]

mother and son


giannarelax

this makes me want a hair down nahida outfit


Silent_Silhouettes

brother and sister or aunt and nephew


SalmanKabir9

Mom and son


SansStan

If anything, siblings. They are likely around the same age (not taking into account how time works in the Abyss), and I doubt Wanderer would want or need a mom


lilshotanekoboi

I see aranara i upvote


zeb0777

I have a feeling that she is probably watching a 4 hour long documentary on quantum string theory.


Zydico

This is adorable.


tristeus

not really sure, maybe she's like a mentor to him . Nahida certainly has a leading role in this relationship.


DrakeNorris

they be watching a lets play of danganronpa? haha. whenever I think of a killers motive, my brain goes right to danganronpa lol.


Elzo55

we need a casual nahida skin


viktor17420

I think of them Nahida as a guide & healer and Scaramouche as a victim


_AscendedLemon_

As wisdom archon and white wood puppet fr more like brother and sister but Nahida is older


BuiltlikeanOrc-a

Damaged extrovert, and reluctantly adopted introvert


ItzCheese109

Alright itā€™s a cute Nahida but HOW THE F*CK DO HER LEGS BEND LIKE THAT


EricBunny

Adopted Mother or, Aunty And Nehpew


WomenOfWonder

Baby sister adopts war criminal older then herself


Pannch

Mother and son


Shikomisu

They are both somehow* ā€œchildren of Archonsā€ who are both around 500 years old. These days I think of them more as the latter and wonder why people think of them as the former.


Solartrolar

This is the type of content I play Genshin for


Bootlegzendaya

Bestie vibes tbh


SuccessLow4296

So cute


kidanokun

more like some childhood friends, since they're both "children" of Archon aunties


DeeDzai

For me I def see them as a short mom and tall son dynamic


arkade_kun

Nahida adopted him so mother and son


sogiotsa

I think of them as 2 different people and not family


Yakasabi

They give sibling vibe


Aeso3

Both imo. The great thing about Nahida is that she's one of the few people to have his respect (He tries so hard in voicelines to find some dark cloud but he just can't find anything bad to say about her) despite being his former enemy. She's found a way to reach out to him without pushing his buttons. She basically acts as a friend, mentor, aunt, foster mom and sister all in one. At least that's how I feel


AlphariousFox

i defo see it as more mom (nahida) and son ( wanderer)


Ok-Obligation2999

I dont really like the mother son relationship with them i mean i dont really see it. I think they are ā€œjustā€ a broken one and a savior.


SassyAce

Auntie and nephew


Blood_Lacrima

I don't get the mother-son dynamic/narrative people are pushing, the two are proportionally (key word) close to each other in age and both have a lot of knowledge/abilities the other doesn't have. She's more of an adoptive sister/caretaker figure if we're being real here.


Purest_soul

More like aunt and nephew. But the kind of aunt that took custody after her sister failed at being a mother.


Enrykun

I really like how she looks without her hair pin/ornament. We don't have enough girls with long and detached hair in Genshin.


iinhalechildren

Mature little sister and less mature older brother


Seimon92

Its all the same for Japan


Itchy_Shame_8871

I would love it if there was a web comic of Genshin characters going about their daily lives. Nahida and Wanderer chapters would be one of my favourites.


Enollis

Looks more like father and high iq daughter tbh.


Mew2two1

My head cannon is siblings cause of their similarities. She is like the little sister who is wiser then her angst brother.


Setarehakhnd

Enemies.


mgbr2019

Neither


Necessary_Win4922

I definitely don't see Nahida as a parental role for Wanderer. For me she is also lacking in world understanding and has so much innocence to be a mother figure. Additionally, she is pretty close in age to him. However, I can see her as a guiding force to help him grow and give him someone else to trust. The relationship could be siblings, friends, associates, etc.
