GoldenWorldsAbound

Welcome to my self insert guidebook! I'm Wendy or Golden, they/them, queer. Check out F/Os for a quick list of faves. One day I'll put individual fandom pages back up. Enjoy!

BYF

Age
🤍 I am over 21 - if you are not comfortable with my age, feel free to ask me to unfollow you and I will do so. In general, I am most comfortable interacting with adults myself, but I don't mind being friends with minors either.Mature Content
🤍 If I post mature content, it will be behind the community label for mature content, so you shouldn't need to block anything additional. I also use the "suggestive" tags for things that aren't explicit but have sexual connotations (such as a character that is scantily clad but not naked). This is pretty discretionary on my part.Tag List
🤍 I post fic and art - I have a tag list for both so let me know if that interests you! If you get added to my tag list, I would probably like to be added to yours, so don't hesitate to ask!Sharing
If you're here from my art blog somehow, you don't need to worry about this. Anyone can follow my art blog.
🤍 I can't handle sharing my mains - I tend to block for that unless we're already friends/mutuals. No hard feelings! I hope you enjoy self shipping with them - but I don't want to see it. This only applies to romantic ships. I love to see people platonic/familial my faves!
🤍 For non-mains, you are welcome to interact and we can be friends! I won't want to discuss anything relating to your ship or SI as it pertains to the shared character, and will require a ship tag to blacklist. Aside from that we can interact as normal!Discourse
🤍 Don't bring discourse to me. I am an adult with a job and responsibilities. I do not give a fuck. If I see something I don't like (ie aging a character up to ship with them), I block and move on. I am not here to spread negativity and cancel culture.

Tags

Tags! I've got several tags I will use. (this is tumblr specific)For ship tags, see the fave quick list. Most of the time my ships have specific and thought out tags (feel free to ask about them!) but newer faves or crushes may take the form "wendy x <character>". Platonic and familial faves often don't get special tags because I am bad at remembering things, and those take the form "platonic/familial wendy x <characer>". Things like art of the ship/imagines that apply to the ship/writing about the fic and so forth will be tagged with the ship name.For images/writings of characters when they don't involve me at all, I do not tag with the ship name but use their name.logistical tags: I use "q" for stuff that goes in the queue (as an fyi, my queue takes ~10 days to spit out a post I put into it). I use "rebagel" for my own content that I am self reblogging for exposure.When reblogging the work of others, I tag as "others".One thing I generally try to avoid is using "x don't look" tags. I have a lot of mutuals and it's really hard for me to track all of these. If there is a ship you need blacklisted, I will happily get you a shipname to block. If the person doesn't tag with shipnames, I will stop reblogging from them. If it's anything else, I am more than happy to tag it as something more specific. It is easier for me to remember I need to tag xyz trigger than it is that I need to tag so-and-so don't look. Don't be afraid to ask for specific triggers.Vents will be tagged "golden vents" or "wendy vents" or "tw vent" or "vent".

Shiroe 👓

If you share any of my main romantic faves, I will very likely not follow you back, and it is very likely I will end up blacklisting your username and potentially blocking you (sorry!). They are very important to me. If you have them as familial/platonic that is fine.The tumblr tag links are to my art blog which is focused on art and fic, but the same tag can be browsed on my self ship blog itself too for more imagines, asks, random lore dumps, etc.

Top Tier Romantic Faves

These faves are not mains but tend to come back into my brain fairly often, and I am still extremely fond of them!

Genshin Romantic Faves

I have a lot of Genshin faves, so I'm compiling them all in one spot. Because Genshin is so popular among self shippers I tend to be more willing to blacklist tags for shared faves and be friends anyway than with other shared faves. There are some exceptions.

Secondary Tier Romantic Faves

Loves that I don't tend to talk about very much for one reason or another, but I love them all the same!

Golden - the character

Golden is essentially the protagonist of Crystal with some tweaks, though older now, as that happened in the past. She grew up in Ecruteak, raised by her adoptive grandmother. She never managed to beat Lance - despite definitely having the skills, she choked both times she challenged him, and this is something she struggles with. As an adult, she spends her time assisting Professors Elm and Oak as well as doing her own research. She travels between Johto and Kanto frequently. She still lives in Ecruteak on a large ranch with all of her Poke'mon.Notable Poke'mon include: Fugue (Ampharos), Budapest (Scizor), Athens (Togekiss), Chester (Kadabra, deaf), Tak (Charmander, blind, baby), and Haunter (shiny, very special boy, not technically captured).

Wendy Protection Squad

Philly the Kid, Heiwajima Shizuo, and a Wendy who recognizes neither of them are teleported to a strange location. Shizuo and Philly each recall that she is their girlfriend, but she remembers nothing.

Our Happy Ending

Wendy is a mage. She met Auron, Braska, and Jecht on their pilgrimage 10 years ago and joined them for part of it. After everyone disappeared and Sin was defeated, Wendy moved to Besaid to watch over Yuna. She become one of Yuna's early Guardians.

Modern Au

Chief Mechanics Officer,
Golden Verite

Born into a noble Mondstadt family that was once subservient to the Ragnvindrs and still maintains a close relationship in modern times, they spent their childhood with the likes of Diluc, Kaeya, and Jean. Like their friends, they joined the Knights of Favonius, but as is traditional in their family, in their early/mid teens they went on a journey of self discovery, spending a few years in Fontaine before journeying to Sumeru. Then, they returned to Mondstadt and after some time took up the position of Chief Mechanics Officer for the Knights of Favonius.
They possess a Hydro Vision.
They frequently return to Sumeru for both work and vacation.* list of platonics below is not exhaustive

Jewelry Maker and Adventurer, Wendy

Originally from Fontaine, suffering
traumatic experiences with the court system and a noble family with high expectations for them. After realizing with some prodding from their mentor, Neuvilette, that it would be best for them to leave, they gain an Anemo Vision, and go to Liyue to escape it all.
There, they try their hand at running a small business selling jewelry made from recycled materials such as Ruin Guardian parts or artifacts, as well as other artistic pieces. They work as an Adventurer on the side to supplement their income while they try to keep their business afloat, and to get materials.
They meet Zhongli, and fall in love, and through him meet Xiao and Venti as well. With their help, Wendy decides to pursue the trials to ascend to an adepti, and is ultimately success, becoming a 狐狸精 (húli jīng) or nine-tailed fox adeptus.

The Crystalline Angel

A Khaenri'ahn who resides in Liyue. They dominated the underground fighting ring under the pseudonym "the Crystalline Angel", catching Ningguang's attention. She hires them to work under her, and the two slowly fall.
They have a Geo Vision, despite their general distrust and resentment towards the gods. This is generally an understated view they hold, but the bitterness is clear.
It is clear there is pain in their past, though they don't ever speak of it. Crystalline is not their real name - only Ningguang one day earns the right to their true name.

The Kitsune Aura

The Raiden Shogun (Ei) once took a human lover long, long ago. That lover has been reincarnated over and over, until finally becoming reincarnated as a Kitsune a century or so before the Cataclysm. During the time that Ei has sealed herself away in the Plane of Euthymia, they find themself growing close with the General Kujou Sara.
Once everything is resolved, the three enter a polycule together.
Their vision is Electro, and it is the same one that has been passed down to them directly from Ei for each reincarnation. Full of memories and desires of each life, it allows them consistency across lifetimes.

Matriarch of the Kamisato Clan, Void Light

Originally from Springvale, Mondstadt, Void Light of the Katzlein clan dreamed of attending the Akademiya in Sumeru. Their wish was fulfilled - and then their dreams were firmly crushed in a few years. With their decision to give up on the Akademiya, they received a Dendro Vision, which they felt ashamed of.
They returned briefly to their home, checking in on their cousin Diona and Uncle Draff, before accepting an invitation from their childhood friend Thoma to visit Inazuma just as the country reopened to outsiders, the Sakoku Decree lifted.
There, they establish themself with a job illustrating and column writing under Yae Miko, and are introduced to the Kamisato siblings by Thoma. Once they receive their papers to stay in the country permanently, Ayato wastes no time in properly courting them, and before long they are happily married.

Assistant to the Iudex, Wendy

Born in Fontaine, they suffered
traumatic experiences with the court system at an impressionable age, along with a noble family with stifling expectations for them. Neuvilette takes pity on them, hiring them as his assistant. One day, Neuvilette and Wendy attend a meeting with Wriothesley - and that sets things in motion for Wendy. Meeting him puts a spark in them that spreads to the rest of their life quickly. As their relationship with Wriothesley deepens and they find joy in life again, they are granted a Pyro Vision.

Mother of the Home of the Hearth, Velvoid

TBD - waiting for Arlecchino's release

x Sigma

Work in Progress - SI undecided, but they work in the Sky Casino alongside Sigma. As a side effect of the book bringing the Casino into existence for the past three years, Sigma finds he has memories of a relationship.

Laid Bare Before You

Rufus Shinra becomes President of the Shinra Electric Power Company, and Aura's life is turned upside down when he begins to court her.

Cuphead SI - "The Devil's Little Technician" - "The Devil's Little Fox"
They accidentally come to owe the Devil their soul - in a moment of quick thinking, they convince him to hire them on to work for him in hell - "take the entire thing, not just my soul". They operate as a sort of tech support for him and his underlings.
