Main Story[]
Under the Falling Sky[]
Rita arrives to join Fu Hua on her mission.
After Otto takes Kiana to awaken the Herrscher in her, Fu Hua and Rita are assigned to stop Theresa and her allies from saving her. Fu Hua is reluctant to work with Rita, but compiles under one condition: No killing. Rita agrees. However, when Fu Hua turns away, she comments that it’s dangerous to be emotional on the battlefield. Together, they defeat Himeko and Tesla. Rita is about to deal the finishing blow, but Fu Hua reminds them of their agreement, so Rita takes them in as prisoners.
At the Helheim facility, Himeko falls unconscious. Fu Hua shows some concern over this, though Rita says she’ll be fine. Rita quickly leaves to deal with Tesla, leaving Himeko to Fu Hua. Otto then successfully awakens the Herrscher of the Void, so Rita and Fu Hua work together to clear the facility of Honkai beasts. Rita reports to Otto. During the conversation, Fu Hua is alarmed to hear that Otto plans to have Theresa fight the Herrscher, and not Durandal, who is powerful enough to face her. She urgently tells Rita to contact Durandal and formulate an attack against the Herrscher. Rita calmly refutes that Otto has his own plan, so they must not go against his orders. She can not let Fu Hua go on her own either, as she was ordered by the Overseer himself to make sure Fu Hua doesn’t jeopardize his plans. So the two battle.
- Rita – “Master Fu Hua, I don’t want to say you’re wrong nor judge your actions. Like you, I am obliged to defend my position and uphold my duties.”
- Fu Hua – “Hmph. Talk won’t resolve this. Get out of my way.”
- Rita – “If our paths must cross… then I will do what I can to defend my position. Valkyrie Rita Rossweisse apologizes for being rude.”
Before the fight can escalate further, Durandal arrives and stops them. Durandal allows Fu Hua to leave, supporting Fu Hua’s will to fight for what she believes in. Rita asks why Durandal did that, as Fu Hua is going to die out there. Durandal replies that it’s her choice. Rita muses that it’s a shame, since she actually likes Fu Hua a lot.
Journey Crisis! The St. Freya Special Event[]
Fu Hua and Rita, along with Durandal, Xixi, and the two Seeles, are passengers on a spaceship to visit Kiana. After Xixi gets attacked and her HOMU doll stolen, an inspection is done. Fu Hua confirms that the culprit must have been one of the passengers. Xixi's immediately suspects Rita due to her secretive nature, and so she is the first one Fu Hua interviews. Rita's alibi was that she had been making desserts. She brings out chestnut flaky pastries, commenting that she had tweaked the recipe to Fu Hua's liking. Fu Hua says it tastes exactly how she remembered and thanks Rita. Fu Hua questions what else Rita was doing since this couldn't have taken an entire afternoon. Rita replies that she was made a bunch of other snacks based on the passengers' preferences, so she is cleared of suspicion for the moment.
After dinner and no substantial progress on the case, Rita bakes some more flaky pastries for Fu Hua. Fu Hua realizes that the timeline doesn't match the testimonies. The two confront each other, knowing that the other is hiding something. Fu Hua admits that she had taken materials from the storage room to make her Spring Festival gift to Kiana. Meanwhile Rita reveals that to ease Theresa's burdens, she cleaned up her office while Theresa was gone. It is from this information that the crew is able to deduce what happened to Xixi and her HOMU doll.

Fanon[]
RitaHua is a rarepair, with Sentihua, Fuki, and DuraRita being much more popular. However, RitaHua does precede these ships due to their interactions happening early on, before DuraRita had any significant interactions.
The main appeal of RitaHua is the tension and distrust between them. The ship was fueled even more in the Empyrean Legends event, which has a CG of Rita seductively whispering in Fu Hua's ear. This CG is a big reason for why many people started liking RitaHua.
