I guess that takes care of that then. Tie me up then~ [ this should be amusing if nothing else. he’s not so sure zhongli is going to be able to tie him up… though hopefully trying to do so still counts. ]
I think that should be alright. What did you want to touch? [ looks down at himself, as if he could see through to his organs. ]
[ his cheeks color... and then color some more. ] Are we going to be able to fight like this? That should be fun.
[ he summons a 'slime blade' to his hand, grinning, since it's not *too* different from his hydro blades. ] You know I can't say no to a fight, Xiansheng. And do I get to pick something to do to you if I win?
It sounds like a fair exchange. [ childe hops back a couple of steps, brandishing another slime blade. ] Do we have to get the other to tap out, or how are we going to determine the winner?
Alright. Let's do this. [ he gives them both a twirl, but then as soon as he's got a proper grip on them he's rushing forward to slash at zhongli - first with the right and then with the left. although the blades are made of slime they're sturdy! but that's because childe ( like zhongli ) is focusing on keeping them solid at the moment. ] Show me what you've got, Xiansheng! [ he brings them both down on zhongli in a follow-up cross, relentless in his attacks as he tries to drive him backward and toward a wall. ]
[ The first slash with the right cuts into his clothing and a bit of ghost underneath, though the feeling is odd and lacking resistance. The Heart Weapon raises to block the strike of the left blade.
And ah -- those weapons are much more... viscous than Childe's normal variety. Something for Zhongli to ponder later.
Childe is very successful in driving Zhongli back up against the wall, but it only results in Zhongli phasing through it - leaving Childe to watch the Heart Weapon clatter to the ground.
One seconds. Two seconds. And Zhongli rises up from the ground behind Childe, calling for his Heart Weapon to return to him. He reaches for it with both hands, trying to pin Childe to his chest and his arms to his sides with the shaft of Vortex Vanquisher pressed tightly across the Harbinger's chest. ]
[ childe should have expected that... but he didn't know how far their abilities could and should be used in a fight like this. he's got his answer now though, and it's got him smirking. childe whirls around just in time to be shoved back against the wall, zhongli's spear pinning him in place and forcing a laugh out of him. ] Looks like you got me, Xiansheng. What was it, sixty seconds, ..? Better start counting. [ childe's grin broadens as he gives zhongli a good couple of seconds, trying to make him believe this is it, a lot of squirming and *attempts* made to *break free*. ]
[ at the twenty two second mark he just... melts, leaving behind nothing but his clothes and any accessories he had been wearing. it's eerily quiet, and now it's zhongli's turn to stew in silence, but childe never completely returns, instead several 'tentacles' shoot up from beneath the floorboards to seize his arms and legs. ]
[ a laugh bubbles from behind zhongli as the tentacles start dragging him backward. childe reaches out, his 'naked' body now completely translucent and blue... and gooey. how about a hug? ] What is it, Xiansheng? [ he gives a solid yank on the tentacles, hoping to catch zhongli before he can escape. he doesn't want to take a chance... so in addition to his arms and the tentacles that have already got him a few more shoot out to help. ] Don't like my new look? I'm like a hydro slime. Maybe a little stickier, sure, but... it's fun~
[ Perhaps surprisingly, after the initial shock, Zhongli ceases struggling as Childe reels him. There is just an unpleasant shiver now and then as the slime comes in contact with -- well lots of parts of him since he slips in and out of being translucent so the tentacles literally get everywhere.
Eventually though, he's close enough to press his cheek to Childe's cheek and look at up him with a dangerous smile. ]
I see.
[ He places a kiss that slimy blue skin, quick and efficient ]
[ as soon as zhongli is close enough childe wraps himself around zhongli like a blanket. no more tentacles. ] Doing what? [ he gives him a quick kiss in return. ] I didn't pick my monster, Xiansheng. I'm just making the best of the card I've been dealt. And if you're talking about the tentacles... you know I've always tried to refrain from using my hydro in a similar manner because I know it makes you uncomfortable... but now when I win...
[ don't mind him grinning like the ever confident idiot that he is. ] It seems like we transform based on which card we're using. I brought along a card I want you to use for one thing and one thing only. [ although, now he's getting a little... shy, maybe because it's one thing to think about it and another to have to say it aloud. ] Ah, I was thinking you could, [ clears his throat. ] hoping you could... [ is the slime turning a light pink? no, shutup. ] bed me in your dragon form.
...something that won't break, I don't know. I'll probably stay like this and do my best to stay solid. [ he would really love to just be himself, but he also doesn't want to be split in half. ] Or do you think one would work better?
[ A hand reaches up inside the slime (or does its best attempt at) to gently pat Childe's cheek. It's still encased though, so Zhongli hasn't quite begun to implement his escape strategy. ]
I will not break you, whatever form you decide to take.
But I would not be completely truthful if I didn't say that I always wondered what kind of dragon you would be.
A strong and fierce creature that takes to the sky perhaps. Or more like a noble sea serpent who commands the seas.
...then I want to be myself. And oh? are you adding to your list of things you'd to see, Xiansheng? Maybe even do. [ snickers. ] I'm sure it could be either or. But [ squeezes him a little bit harder, giving his cheek a peck. ] that's what I'd like. At least one of the things...
I'm pretty sure I've already won. And besides, what do you intend to do to break free, hm, from the looks of it, Xiansheng, you're pretty stu- [ since everything's pretty much in the same spot, just goo, zhongli won't exactly have to search too hard. ]
-ah hah. [ childe's entire body quivers around him, flushing a soft pink as his hold definitely does relax. ]
[ Oh, this is much more convenient than he anticipated.
Zhongli will just gaze at Childe fondly as he continues to stroke him intimately from the inside. If he manages to hold out for sixty seconds (how convenient for Zhongli that he is starting the timer on the clock just now), then it will be a well deserved win for the Harbinger. ]
I am well restrained, yes.
So it all depends on whether or not you can keep me there.
[ wow!!! it's basically been 60+ seconds, ...although childe hasn't been counting or keeping track, so the loss will be his own fault in the end. ] O- Of course I can. What makes you think I can't, I've... I've had you already, so... this is going to be cake, you'll see... [ if zhongli keeps up whatever he's doing then childe is going to be a puddle in a matter of seconds, so... he's all talk, honestly. ]
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
As for the ones I am interested - any of them which allow for a close physical or emotional intimacy. And there are quite a few here that qualify.
Ah, I do want to ask how comfortable you would be with myself touching anything of yours internally.
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
I think that should be alright. What did you want to touch? [ looks down at himself, as if he could see through to his organs. ]
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
But I wish to earn it. And also the right to tie you up.
In a way that you would find enjoyable.
[ He leans in close to Childe so they are nose to nose - a frosty Eskimo kiss. ]
Through combat.

Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
[ His Heart Weapon still comes to his call, more solid than the rest of him. Even when Zhongli himself looks mostly transparent, its form remains. ]
Is that a fair exchange for you?
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
[ Zhongli blinks once at how much that looks like a hydro blade and the puddles but shrugs it off as the production being the production. ]
I am not interested in causing you any lasting harm.

Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
[ Zhongli reaches out uselessly when Childe melts, but by the time he realizes what has happened he's already gone.
Odd.
Does that mean Childe is also a ghost? (But Zhongli is able to take his clothes with him across solid spaces.)
He paces the temple, trying to listen for the sounds of Childe moving in the walls or floor or even the ceiling, but unsurprisingly he hears nothing.
--Until tentacles have already wrapped around his arms and legs. ]
Childe--!!!

Childe.
Is there a reason you enjoy doing this to me?
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
When you win?
[ A light laugh, ever so fond. Presumptuous. ]
And what would you want as your prize, hmmm?
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
[ He turns what he can of his head to look at Childe, placing a kiss upon his cheek. ]
And what form would you like to take in this scenario?

Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
1/2
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
[ Though Zhongli cannot fully escape, he does sink translucent fingers underneath Childe's slime skin, searching, probing.
Trying to find anything sensitive within that gelatinous mass. If he finds something, he's going to give it a warning squeeze ]
Re: Sometime during Monster Bingo
-ah hah. [ childe's entire body quivers around him, flushing a soft pink as his hold definitely does relax. ]
