Kokoyae

Kokoyae is the femslash ship between Yae Miko and Sangonomiya Kokomi from the Genshin Impact fandom.

Canon
Yae Miko and Kokomi currently only have a few interactions, however both have an voiceline about the other. In Miko's voiceline about Kokomi, she starts off saying the Divine Priestesses of Watatsumi are getting cuter every generation, then wondering how she looks performing the dance of divine peace. She also lastly says she’s be happy to share a few tips with Kokomi if she asked nicely. And then in Kokomi's voiceline about Yae Miko, she says she holds her as an outstanding shrine maiden, then saying she's heard that Yae holds responsibility with Yae Publishing House's light novels. Kokomi then calls her an enigmatic individual.

The two also share many similarities. Plus have similar color schemes. Firstly, both seem to like teasing Gorou, or just know him well. Both are also high ranks within Inazuma. And both of them are shrine priestesses.

In their first interaction, Miko says Kokomi looks as soft as a jellyfish, and Kokomi says it’s nice to meet her, calling her “fried tofu with all the frills”. Miko then gives her a nickname, which is “sole of the deep”, and the two begin laughing. Miko then says she’s there for a book review with Kokomi, and suggests they go to the Kanjou Commission headquarters. However, seconds later she says it’s just their first meeting and decides they shouldn't announce it to the public yet. After, Yae asks Kokomi where Gorou is, and after her response, Kokomi leaves to talk with the Traveler.

Duel! The Summoners' Summit!
Once the Traveler, Paimon, and Charlotte reach Inazuma, they find out that the Genius Invokation TCG Tournament is about to hold the final match, the players being none other than Kokomi and Miko. The two, whether willingly or not, represent the two sides of the war that was recently fought in the nation, and as such the game, acording to Kokomi, gains a political message of union and reconciliation. However, it's clear that the two contestants have no animosity towards each other. In fact, the both address the other with their pen-names, as they have been communicating via letters for quite some time. Furthermore, they both show a spirit of friendly competition, and while during the match they try to outsmart each other, neither of them really cares about victory.

Voicelines
"These Divine Priestesses seem to be getting cuter every generation. I wonder how she looks performing the Dance of Divine Peace... Perhaps even little schools of fish swish around her while she spins. If she's ever looking for a more experienced head shrine maiden to learn from, I'd be quite happy to share a few tips with her... Hehe, as long as she asked me nicely, of course."

"I have also heard of Guuji Yae's great deeds. In all fairness, I hold her to be an outstanding shrine maiden, and she has performed her duties marvelously. I even heard that she holds responsibility where Yae Publishing House's light novels are concerned. An enigmatic individual to say the least..."

Fanon
Kokoyae was very unpopular, but is now slowly growing. Rival ships are KokoSara, Kokorou, Yaeyato and EiMiko. Kokoyae currently has over 50 works on AO3. This ship is usually liked due to their matching colors. Sometimes the two may also even be shipped alongside Raiden Ei, or Gorou.

This ship mostly sailed due to Yae's voiceline about Kokomi where she calls her cute and says she wants to see her performing the Dance of Divine Peace. Fans started shipping these two when Yae's voiceline was leaked.
