"Fun" fact: Hu Tao (before knowing Qiqi) had traumatized Qiqi so much (trying to "kill" her) to the point of her actually remembering hiding spots to avoid Hu Tao.

[@Ray-ri6uf]

On the other hand, Hu Tao didn’t see it that way. She saw Qiqi as a friend who was cursed with immortality. She shouldn’t have been alive, so she took it upon herself to “lay her to rest” thinking that it was what was best for Qiqi. After multiple attempts, she realised that it wasn’t what Qiqi wanted and tried to apologise, but at that point it was too late and she had a long lasting hatred for her.

[@ecave3435]

[@tinewordsmith126]

I read somewhere that, because Qiqi is a zombie, once you give her a certain task to do, she won't stop until she manages to do said task. The only way to cancel the command and make her stop is to hug her from behind and say, "I love you the most". I strongly believe that her parents always hugged her and told her they love her the most, that is why she only responds to that sentence to stop and cancel a task 💔

It really could be either tbh. Qiqi might have a backstory that we don't know of yet that could be more painful than we could imagine, just like Xiao before he was released. That's how her forgetfulness could, just possibly be a blessing. It may be a curse because we don't know if Qiqi wants to know MORE of what's happened in her past, painful or happy, it all depends on how that character themselves is feeling, and all based on their own perspective.

From what i understand, Qiqi was also a citizen under the protection of Zhongli : remember the first Contract he ever created, the contract to protect Liyue and its citizen. Not only an Adeptus caused the death of an innocent bystander, but said bystander happens to be among the people he was to watch over and protect. He is completely responsible for that blunder as the Adepti that were present during the accident selfishly gave a portion of their power to the child in order to try to save her without even thinking that the harsh training they had to do before becoming an Adeptus was needed to wield such powers.

Sooo..my girlfriend LOVES this game. She loves streaming it for me on Discord and showing me all her characters. I've slowly been getting more and more interested in the game, and I've got to say, based on their pasts (both canon and theorized), Qiqi, Zhongli, and Venti are perhaps my favorite characters. This video especially got to me because of the concept of what Qiqi has to go through, as well as Zhongli coming to terms that they are the same and yet the opposite nonetheless -both cursed with immortality, yet one to never forget, and one to never remember. The context of it, the reason the topic comes in question, is heart-wrenching, and just about brought me to tears.
