the way of the househusband au masterlist
INTIMIDATES BASHERS - zhongli, diluc, itto, and xiao
ZHONGLIās rolled up sleeves that shows his battle scars are enough for people who attempt to bash the two of you to not do anything at all, giving the ex-yakuza all the more reasons to be proud of his scars and not be ashamed to show them. though, you gotta admit, youāre surprised that it intimidated people despite the apron he always wears.
when you do encounter a basher that actually has the nerve to bash, zhongli first lets his scars intimidate the person and try to reason with them, keeping you beside him protectively in hopes of the basher not trying to harm you.
if the basher is stubborn and tries to harm the both of you regardless of your loverās attempts, this is when rex lapis comes out in the light instead of zhongli.
you could only watch as your husband grips the basherās shoulder in a tight manner, his eyes narrowing as the atmosphere grew tense.
āhow would you feel about living in prison for a while?ā
DILUCās aloof attitude alongside his muscular form often intimidated people around him and he definitely isnāt complaining ā especially since it backs off those who could attempt to hurt you because of your lifestyle with him, so the chance of getting bashed was only a 1% possibility.
however, the possibility is never a zero.
your harasser didnāt even know that your husband is the intimidating bartender that cleans glasses 24/7 because he only overheard you gushing to your friend about your lovely househusband in the bar where he drinks, so things didnāt go well with the person when your husband caught him sputtering insults and nearly punched you when you insulted him back.
customers and your friend could only watch as some asshole who didnāt know anything better get scared by dilucās haunting glare and cowardly backed off when the red-haired man calmly ordered him to get out, causing your harasser muttering out insincere comments before taking his leave.
despite the situation being dealt with, we all know diluc would feel guilty if you ever get hurt because of him being a househusband :((
nevertheless though, his guilt that sometimes creeps in him disappears when he sees you giving such a blessing smile, telling him how youāre grateful to have a wonderful househusband like him and how you love him so much despite his past :))
ITTO honestly didnāt intend to intimidate people with his stature and muscular scar-covered body and heās incredibly oblivious from that fact. however, you are really thankful that his intimidated appearance is enough to make bashers back off - especially since your neighbors warned you and itto about bashers that lurks around the small town.
if there was someone who somehow had the metal balls to bash you not knowing that your househusband is a literal beefy muscular man who can probably crush someoneās head with his bare hands whoās standing nearby, heāll immediately tackle him down and make you call the police for an attempted harassment.
although your husband isnāt as⦠violent as most househusbands in this post, heās the only one who does the most rational thing and call the cops, simply because heās a literally nice guy that just follows the law now.
XIAOās eyes are something that catches peopleās attention, only for them to immediately feel scared of him because of his rest-bitch face. if looks could kill, xiao wouldāve already killed millions, thatās what people will think to themselves whenever they walk pass the ex yakuza.
unfortunately, this doesnāt go the same for certain people because of xiaoās height, especially that one basher that spat out insults after insults because of your lifestyle with xiao ā that is, until your husband takes one good look at the basher with a scary glare with intent to kill ā and that was enough for the person to shut his mouth up and stare in fear.
you gotta admit, it was pretty hot. but scary as well. but mostly hot.
THREATENS BASHERS - kaeya and thoma
KAEYA will instantly take a hold on the person from going after you, staring at them with a cold gaze that replaced the loving look he gives to you and only you.
he may have promised that he wouldnāt hurt anyone anymore to you, but it doesnāt mean he promised that heāll not do it verbally. all it took was for your husband to lean in on your assaulterās ear and whisper a few words that made him shiver in fear and try to get away from kaeya.
when you asked kaeya what he said to the basher, his expression instantly comes back into a loving one, cupping your cheek with his one hand as he tells you itās nothing for you to worry about.
THOMA will immediately put himself between you and your basher before stopping them from their attempted harassment. it was definitely strange to see your husband taking the situation so light heartedly as he treats your harasser like theyāre old friends ā but then the blonde haired man whispers something that made the basher look at him in confusion, giving you and thoma a chance to walk away from the incident with no injuries and worries.
so imagine your surprise when you saw your basher standing at your front door the day after the incident, muttering so much apologies as he kneels on the ground and begs for forgiveness to you. just what did thoma do to scare this poor guy?!
FIGHTS BASHERS BACK - childe, scaramouche
CHILDE will not take the basher slightly ā especially if they were aiming to attack you first under his watch. seriously, were they asking for a death wish when they tried to hurt an ex-yakuzaās spouse right in front of him? childe amuses to himself, watching as the basher cowardly steps away when he sees childe bringing out a gun.
oh, you donāt have to worry about witnessing the poor bastardās death by your husband - the gun is simply a prop that can scare off people like your assaulter, so no need to try and stop him, just watch the show and see if the man learned his lesson <<3 you wanted to ask why on earth your husband has a gun prop, but you honestly donāt wanna find out.
whatās not a prop are the two blades that childe brings out when he stands in front of the basherās home, smiling menacingly as he goes closer and closer to the front door.
despite failing in being intimidating to others outdoors and not in his old organization anymore, SCARAMOUCHE makes it up through his violent verbal assault. heās probably the only househusband that made you encounter a few bashers who arenāt scared of scaramoucheās appearance.
however, your lover is one of the only househusbands who wonāt hesitate to go violent (verbally and physically) against someone whoād have the audacity to assault you. it didnāt matter if the incident occur in public, his major priority is you and your safety, so heād be damned if heād let this bastardās disgusting behavior slide just because he has an audience.
so when a certain basher took things way too far, it simply end up with the basher feeling like an embarrassment to this world and a traumatized memory of scaramoucheās colorful words.
