* In 2.2, Argenti praises Aventurine, calling him a "dashing IPC ambassador, whose radiance matches that of a beautiful peacock", and bemoans the fact that Aventurine won't be able to attend the ongoing festivities Argenti is a part of. The end of the patch reveals that the Knight of Beauty [[InexplicablyAwesome somehow]] broke into Nihility's domain to rescue Aventurine, and wishes to see successfully brought him again.

* Gallagher and Mikhail are quite close, and close; even before Mikhail's death, Gallagher says worries for his well-being and promises to help fulfill Mikhail's cause of saving Penacony from Order. Gallagher sticks around in the city, setting up the entire invitations scheme for the Charmony Festival, all for the purpose of bringing Trailblazers to Mikhail's grave. Finally, the last we see of Gallagher is him standing next to Mikhail's perpetually-sleeping form, saying that he'll meet him again in hell after everything.

** The "Boundless Choreo" light cone is literally another Black Swan and Acheron dance with Acheron wearing a blazer in contrast to Black Swan's dress. The light cone's lore even concludes with the quote, ""What a lovely dance that was, Memokeeper. Would you like another one?" and that was ''after'' [[spoiler:Black Swan looks into Acheron's memories again and sees a literal sea of corpses, which terrifies her, with the implication that this light cone was their first dance.]]

isn't this scenario considered meta thus disqualifying it as an entry here?

** Qingque and Fu Xuan are almost together, from first appearance (with Fu Xuan using her to communicate with the Astral Express as a guide), to Fu Xuan's promotional video, to Qingque's lightcone ("Today Is Another Peaceful Day"), even in both Heliobi quests. Despite their differing statuses, it's very obvious that Qingque is quite close with the Master Diviner... well, it looks more like Fu Xuan liking Qingque and wanting her to stay more than anything else.
** In her voiceline, Fu Xuan states that while many in the Divination Commission slack off, only Qingque has mastered it, wondering if she could even bypass her own divinations.
** The heliobi quest with both Fu Xuan and Qingque. For Fu Xuan, it's Qingque's insight that actively helps bring Fu Xuan back to her senses, and Fu Xuan actively doesn't fire Qingque, despite having the power to. Bonus in that Qingque is blushing when Fu Xuan (affected by the Heliobi) fires her. Fu Xuan also jokes about threatening Qingque to keep quiet about it.
** Adding onto the previous statement, when Qingque is the one affected, Fu Xuan's the one who puts up the notice, and Qingque (affected by the Heliobi) calls Fu Xuan "Xuany" when we see her mind while trying to capture the Heliobi. This part of the quest ends with Fu Xuan gently patting Qingque on the head. Qingque quickly deduces that a Heliobi had possessed her and returns to as normal.
** Both of them play into some sort of dynamic where they oppose one another yet connect well because of that. While Fu Xuan actively divines fate and does her best to follow through with it safely, Qingque believes in luck, following her entire kit. This is best seen in the Heliobi story quest for Fu Xuan.
* After the Heliobi Quest involving Fu Xuan's Possession, the Ghostbusters group chat (Huohuo, Guinaifen, Sushang, and, of course, You) talks about how cool Qingque was in that moment.
* Qingque calls Tingyun pretty and calls her playstyle entertaining.

* Aha and Akivili, with Aha outright stating that it's a lethal joke if the simulation is just giving THEM a fake Akivili. Both are quite close, with Aha acting as another passenger to blow up the Astral Express, but Aha seems to genuinely care for Akivili despite how odd it is.

* Jing Yuan and Blade also get a bit of FoeYayShipping due to their past in the High Cloud Quintet with Dan Heng's past incarnation and Blade's past identity as Yingxing. Blade's character lore refers to Jing Yuan and himself more as VitriolicBestBuds who often bickered but settled their differences once he gave Jing Yuan his signature weapon. The opening cutscene of the first Xianzhou arc shows Blade in shackles approaching Jing Yuan and shooting him a DeathGlare.

You have to bust out a microscope to see the highlights, but I swear they are there.


* The two of them start off with a bit of FoeYayShipping from the "Final Victor" light cone from the version 2.0 highlights page, as the art shows Aventurine holding Dr. Ratio's gun at himself, and the attached lore has him pull the trigger three times in a game of Russian roulette while looking Dr. Ratio in the eye provocatively. The effect is further enhanced by the voiced version of the light cone, where Aventurine sounds almost sultry as he proclaims himself the final victor. The tension only ramps up as Dr. Ratio accuses Aventurine of incompetence and threatens to report his failings to the IPC once the two are in Penacony.
