Serendipity is a College AU Fu Hua/Kiana/Meinote shipping fanfiction of Honkai Impact 3rd, written and created by Shouyaki.
In this Modern AU Fic, Fu Hua, Kiana, and Mei are regular college students with no powers whatsoever. Hua helps new student Kiana find her way around, and the three of them soon get closer. However, haunted by what she feels is a past crime, and to the detriment of her mental health, Hua forces herself to obey the shady Otto's mysterious orders...
This page contains examples of the following tropes:
- Alcoholic Parent: Siegfried. Kiana is traumatized.
- Big Eater: Kiana, as in canon. Hunger is the one thing that motivates her to detach herself from Mei in chapter 1.
- Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: Siegfried verbally invokes this trope before leaving a very young Kiana with Otto. It's unclear if the only reason was his alcoholism.
- Guilt-Induced Nightmare: The very first scene of the fic!
- Happily Adopted: Lixue was, after Hua started taking care of her.
- High School AU: The girls are all in college, without the Honkai or any evil monsters to battle.
- Identical Twin Mistake: Kiana briefly mistakes Fei, the Herrscher of Sentience's counterpart, for Hua.
- I Let Gwen Stacy Die: Hua blames herself for the death of Lixue.
- Manipulative Bastard: Otto takes advantage of Hua's guilt to blackmail her into doing what he wants.
- Maternal Death? Blame the Child!: Despite himself, it seems Siegfried can't help but blame his youngest daughter for Cecilia's death.
- New Parent Nomenclature Problem: Lixue had trouble deciding what to call Hua, ultimately settling on asking for permission to call her "sister".
- Please, Don't Leave Me: Kiana says this almost word for word after having a bad dream of how her father left her which reminded her of how people have left her in the past.
- Sir Swearsa Lot: Fei's introduction brings in a whole slew of cussing.
Fu Hua still grapples with her past. Kiana and Mei choose to move on from theirs. They all meet on a fateful day.
