Hah, this reminds me of digging around a while back for something specific like that after I got really into a particular Zhongli & Childe dynamic. Finding genuinely well-written stuff in that niche can feel like panning for gold sometimes, but you do develop a bit of a map after a while.
AO3 is, without a doubt, your most reliable starting point. The tagging system there is a lifesaver. You'll want to filter for the 'Mpreg' tag, then combine it with your preferred character pairing, maybe 'Zhongli/Childe' or 'Diluc/Kaeya'. The key is to then sort by 'Kudos' or 'Bookmarks' to surface the community-vetted works. Don't just look at the first page; sometimes amazing fics by newer authors are lurking a few pages in with fantastic prose but fewer initial stats.
I'd also recommend checking out specific authors who specialize in that trope. If you find one story you love, click through to their profile—they often have more. Tumblr can be surprisingly useful for finding curated rec lists if you search tags like '#genshin mpreg recs', though you'll have to sift through more reblogged art and headcanons. The quality is really variable, but the passion is always there, which sometimes makes up for rougher writing.

Asking for emotional depth in mpreg fics is such a mood. They can get so pulpy so fast, but the ones that stick with me really dig into the character's sense of self. One that absolutely wrecked me was 'Through the Haze' by lucentpetrichor, a Zhongli/Childe piece. It's not just about the pregnancy; it's about Zhongli confronting his own post-archon mortality and Childe grappling with the violence of his past versus creating new life. The prose is deliberately heavy, almost oppressive at times, mirroring the weight of their decisions. The author uses Liyue's contracts as a metaphor for the unspoken promises between them, which I thought was brilliant. It's a slow, painful, and ultimately cathartic read.
Another one I'd put in that tier is 'Beneath the Cor Lapis Sky,' though that's a Xiaoven story. The emotional core there is Xiao's karmic debt and how it could taint something pure. The fear and protective instincts feel very raw, less romanticized than in other fics. It does get a bit melodramatic in the third act, but the initial character work is stellar. I tend to avoid mpreg fics that use it purely as a kink or fluff device when I'm in this headspace; I want the mechanics of the worldbuilding to serve the angst and the character study.

So, I browse through Ao3 tags a lot, and the dominance of certain characters in that particular niche is pretty clear. Zhongli and Childe are basically the kings, no contest. Their dynamic—the whole ex-archon vs. harbinger, the tension, the power play—it just lends itself perfectly to those kinds of stories. You've got the ancient, dignified figure and the chaotic, battle-loving one; writers love exploring the reversal or the vulnerability that premise allows.
Neuvillette and Wriothesley exploded onto the scene incredibly fast. Their official backstory has this built-in intensity and a shared history of… well, profound connection. The fandom latched onto that potential for domesticity mixed with drama almost immediately. It feels like every other new fic in the tag is about them now.
A couple of others pop up frequently, but with different flavors. Alhaitham and Kaveh are huge, but their stories often lean more into the bickering-to-lovers, academic-rivals co-parenting angle. Diluc and Kaeya are an evergreen pair for angsty, secret-identity-reveal plots. The pattern seems to be that popularity here is less about overall character love and more about which pairs have a dynamic ripe for that specific kind of narrative tension and eventual softness.

Man, that's a niche that can really go anywhere if you squint hard enough. Genshin's worldbuilding is so flexible, it's practically a playground. Honestly, the genre depends entirely on what part of the pregnancy you're focusing on. Wanna lean into the biological weirdness of an elemental being gestating? Body horror is right there, especially if you're involving someone like Albedo or a pure elemental like Zhongli contemplating creation. It gets existential fast.
But the real bread and butter, for me at least, is hurt/comfort. The potential for angst is off the charts—morning sickness with the added bonus of elemental energy surges, hiding a pregnancy from a fellow adeptus, the sheer logistical nightmare of being a warrior while carrying. That feeds right into domestic fluff too, which is super popular; just soft moments of established couples dealing with unexpected family planning in their Serenitea Pot. The world's danger adds natural stakes for action-adventure or survival plots, where protecting the pregnancy becomes the central mission. I've even seen it folded into political intrigue in Liyue or Mondstadt, where a pregnancy becomes a dynastic plaything. So yeah, not one genre, but a catalyst that twists whatever genre you drop it into.

Wow, tackling lore and mpreg together in a Genshin Impact story is like trying to do two massive puzzles at the same time. Some writers just drop a magic potion or a cursed artifact and call it a day, which honestly feels cheap to me. I prefer when the world’s existing elemental energy gets twisted for this purpose.
Think about the Archons and their power. An author I follow had a plot where a character’s connection to Dendro triggered a change, and it felt rooted in the game’s own logic about life and creation. The slow-burn political fallout in Liyue around lineage and legacy was way more interesting than the physical details.
For me, the balance is lost if the pregnancy itself becomes the entire plot. It should be a catalyst within the established world, not the world bending around it. The best fics treat Teyvat’s rules with respect, letting the characters navigate the new reality using the tools and politics that already exist.

If you're diving into the world of 'Genshin Impact' fanfiction, Archive of Our Own (AO3) is my top recommendation. The tagging system is a godsend—you can filter for everything from slow-burn romances to epic crossovers with other fandoms. I stumbled upon a Zhongli-centric fic there that blended mythology and action so well, it felt like an official side story.
For shorter, punchier reads, Tumblr has hidden gems too. Writers often thread headcanons or drabbles that capture character voices perfectly. Just search tags like '#genshinfic' or '#genshin impact ff' and you'll fall into a rabbit hole of creativity. Some authors even illustrate their own scenes!
