[ he looks surprised at the question, and then he just glances away. It's not like he can refuse him - not when he got him the Gnosis back, and even managed to deal a significant blow to another Archon.
But ]
... I haven't let anyone set foot in here since my mother died.
I made an exception for you and to take care of your family.
... [ well now he kind of feels like an asshole. his expression changes and he goes quiet for a few minutes. ] Why not? Do you really intend to do this all by yourself? Even the Tsaritsa has the Jester.
[ he looks at the gnosis and then he takes a knee, offering it to him. ] I can be *your* sword.
[ He makes it so tempting to accept. He desperately needs powerful allies and Ajax has proven to be just that. Twice now he's proven to be the kind of person who keeps his word — he won't die, would he? ]
...
I can't govern properly if I get attached to people. And the people need a strong leader in these times. I don't need food, and I don't need rest, so there's no need for me to keep servants for myself here. This place should be dark and dead and silent.
[ and yet here he is, taking a step toward Ajax and reaching for that Gnosis ]
...heh, well I'm afraid I do need those kinds of things. And why does it need to be those things? It could stand to be a bit more lively. You can be strong without having to seal yourself in a literal prison.
I don't mind if you call me Ajax in private. [ he takes his hand and gets back on his feet. ] But call me Tartaglia while we're out and about. Let the world of Teyvat know that you managed to take one of her Majesty's harbingers. And let it be a lesson to her. I'm going to kill each and every one of the others... and eventually she'll have nothing and no one.
And my family doesn't need to stay inside the palace walls. I just want them accommodated and taken care of. I'd also like to be able to visit them sometimes, but I doubt that'll be a problem when I'm so close to them. I should probably go tell them I'm back at some point today too.
[ ??? ] You don't...? Are the servants just here for show then?
I'd appreciate that. [ he snorts. ] Going to keep me here as your pet? [ he gets up in his face again. ] Going to make me grovel? Do you want me on my hands and knees your highness?
They're here just for your family. But if you'll take care of them, then I won't have any use for them.
[ he'd like to look smug, say something smart in response - but Ajax is giving him critical hit after critical hit. Would he like to keep him as his pet? ... yes. Would he like to see him on his hands and knees? Also yes. And his face goes red as soon as he calls him YOUR HIGHNESS ]
No. We'll need the servants. I'm going to be busy as your right hand man. I can't really imagine I'll be just standing around here doing nothing with all the shit that's going on out there.
[ ...weakness detected. his smirk broadens. ]
What's the blush for then, Yuuri? Sure seems like you're really interested in those kinds of things? Would you step on me while I'm on my knees? Bet you'd like that. You'd probably do all sorts of things to be. Been so lonely... haven't touched a human in who knows how long. Have you even explored your own body?
[ Well, he's right. It's not like he never had sexual experiences, of course he's touched humans before — been touched. He has explored his own body, and had his share of fun back when he had far less responsibilities — even back when it was another Harbinger he was getting all bothered over.
But it has been so, so long ago now. There's a soft hitch of his breath as the riptide is put on his belly, and before he can think better of it he grabs on Ajax's shirt, grabbing on him and full on shoving him to the nearest wall, pinning him there ]
You really are a brat.
Is this what you want? For me to force you on your knees, telling you to worship me.
[ childe is laughing long before his back hits the wall, but he doesn’t stop when yuuri tries to intimidate him. archon or not, he doesn’t scare easily. ]
It takes one to know one. [ he slots his knee between yuuri’s legs, grinding it into his crotch. ] I know you’d like me groveling like a dog. When’s the last time you had anybody licking your boots, huh?
[ Fuck. There's another soft whimper at that, and Ajax will be able to feel him getting hard embarrassingly fast. It's been so long, and no matter what he says his body does have needs.
So he leans in, bites on his neck hard enough to leave a mark while his hands start working on getting rid of all of his clothes ]
You're the one who's eager to be treated like a dog. Admit it, you want me to make you beg.
I thought you didn't need these sorts of things... [ he keeps on rubbing him through his shorts. ] I knew you were a fucken liar. [ he laughs, the laughter growing harder and louder as soon as he bites him. he sets his hands on his hips, digging his nails in. ] I'm not admitting a damn thing. Tell me how much you missed me.
[ he says like he's not rocking his hips against him, enjoying every contact. His skin feels like it's on fire, and now that he has his hands on Ajax he can't stop himself at all. He wants him so badly. Maybe he wanted him from the moment he first set his eyes on him.
He keeps with those kisses and bites, trailing them down to his collarbone while his hands very quickly move to the front of his pants - starting to rub him through them ]
... I missed you. Ever since you've shown up here and I felt your presence I've been thinking of you. I couldn't get you out of my head.
I am. Hah hahahaha. I know it's getting on your nerves, Yuuri. I like seeing you all riled up. It's cute. [ he snickers, continuing to indulge him. ] Mmmm. Keep it up. More. [ he hums, closing his eyes as yuuri keeps on kissing and biting and marking. he's getting hard. how could he not? the archon of the nation of inazuma is grinding on him like a common whore. ] What do you want from me? I've been thinking of you too, you know... and I wouldn't be here if I didn't want you too. [ he squeezes his hips, holding him steady as he grinds back against him, so yuuri can feel just how hard he is. ] Why don't we celebrate our new relationship? Mark the occasion!
[ he grabs on him again and this time, he full on throws him to the ground, moving on top of him right away and shedding his own clothes as fast as he can. It's been so long since he's indulged even a little, so what's wrong in doing this now?
This man is so infuriating. So beautiful and powerful and attractive. It's driving him crazy. He moves his hands to Ajax's thighs, spreading them apart and then letting his hand move to his cock again, starting to jerk him off while his other hand moves lower still - teasing his balls and then the rim of his hole ]
You're right. You're mine to do whatever I please with and now — now I want to fuck you so hard I'm going to make you regret playing with me. You think I'll let you go after a single round? I've been waiting for you for an entire month.
[ childe is a bit surprised to hit the floor, a grunt escaping him as he has the wind knocked out of him for half a second. he blinks and suddenly yuuri is on top of him, clothes off, and his hand is on his dick. he groans, the archon’s other hand trailing down his balls and then teasing his asshole. this isn’t something he could have imagined in a million years. ]
I’m yours? Did you plan this all those years ago? Is that why you gave me this? [ he pulls off the eyepatch and opens his other eye to reveal instead of another blue eye he has a purple eye, and as childe has matured the electro symbol has appeared on it. ]
[ He wants him so bad. It almost shocks him just how much he's overcome with want and need, how much this man just managed to rile him up so easily. And yet here is, pressing his fingers inside of him and biting on his neck - marking each spot he can reach like he's truly staking his claim.
He's never wanted anyone so bad in the hundreds of years he's been alive, and that intensity only gets stronger when he sees that purple eye - that mark he left on him so many years ago ]
Maybe I did.
Maybe that's what this all was for, to make sure I'll have such a pretty bitch here at my disposal. Things get so lonely in the palace sometimes, after all.
[ he hooks his fingers in, leaning in to look at Ajax's face properly, not wanting to take his eyes off of him ]
There is something so very special about your bloodlust, after all.
…and you have the balls to call me greedy. [ he laughs, tensing up as he feels him slip a finger into him. he’ll find that he’s suitably slick, childe’s hydro vision put to good use, so while prep is still somewhat necessary it’s not completely necessary. ] I doubt that. It’s just a bonus, your majesty. But I ought to be careful. Don’t want to inflate your ego too much. Maybe instead… I inflate your belly. I’m not a one round kind of guy, be it fighting or sex. Archon or not, do you really think you can keep up with me? [ yes, he’s still a cocky brat. ]
[ he can’t help but arch his back as yuuri hooks his finger, biting his lip as he bites back a moan. ] And, and what’s that… [ he asks as he slowly relaxes back onto the floor. ]
[ He likes feeling that - it gives him a good idea of exactly how much Ajax wants him. He prepared himself just for him ... ]
Were you thinking about me? Did you miss me this past month? I wonder if I'd been the face you thought of, all these years, as you started figuring out your body's needs ...
[ he doesn't want him to bite back his moans. He wants him to keep going, and that's exactly why he keeps fucking him with his fingers, aiming for his prostate while his other hand keeps jerking him off ]
Did you touch yourself to the thought of me - when you didn't even know who I was? Or maybe - maybe you just jerked off to the thought of fighting me.
You'd like a battle after all.
[ he kisses behind his ear, and then nibbles on his earlobe ]
It made my own blood boil, you know. Knowing you were in the abyss, surviving there, waiting to meet me so you could fight me. You're not the only one who enjoys a good fight.
