Despite being utterly exhausted from your mission, you took great care in opening the apartment door you shared with Xavier, not wanting to wake him if he was already asleep.

Given how he always seemed drowsy during the day, you assumed heโ€™d be in bed by now. But you had forgotten that Xavier was always up late, hunting Wanderers and attending to his own errands.

Quietly closing the door behind you, you were taken by surprise when a pair of arms wrapped around your waist, his chest pressing gently against your back.

โ€œI didnโ€™t wake you, did I?โ€ you asked softly, concerned that your footsteps and the creaking floor might have disturbed his sleep.

He nuzzled into your nape, inhaling your scent, his embrace firm yet tender, as if afraid youโ€™d vanish if he let go.

โ€œNo,โ€ he murmured, his warm breath tickling your neck. โ€œI waited for you.โ€

A twinge of guilt washed over you. โ€œLetโ€™s rest then?โ€ you suggested softly.

But there was no response. Turning your head, you saw that he had miraculously fallen asleep in that position.

Even though he was leaning on you, his weight wasnโ€™t burdensome, but his even breathing and heaving shoulders told you he was sound asleep.

Raising a hand to wake him, you changed your mind and instead began to gently massage his scalp with one hand while caressing his hand on your waist with the other.

He let out a soft, satisfied mumble, melting into your touch.

Usually, Zayne would be the one who would come home late after his night surgeries, but tonight, it was you.

Opening the door, you noticed a light on in the living room. Zayne was sitting on the couch, a book in his hands, his eyes immediately locking onto you as you walked in.

โ€œYouโ€™re late. Itโ€™s already past midnight,โ€ he stated calmly, though you detected a hint of concern in his voice.

โ€œYeah, sorry. I had to finish some documents,โ€ you replied, feeling a pang of guilt for worrying him.

Setting his book down, he stood up, his expression composed but his concern evident. "You should have called," he said, walking over to you with steady, pragmatic concern.

"I know, but I didnโ€™t want to bother you,โ€ you admitted.

He sighed softly, a rare show of emotion. "It's never a bother when itโ€™s about you," he said, gently touching your arm. "Are you okay?"

โ€œIโ€™m fine, just tired,โ€ you assured him with a small smile.

โ€œGood,โ€ he nodded, his stoicism softening as he looked at you. "But next time, just let me know."

Nodding, you felt warmth in your chest at his words. Despite his reserved nature, you knew he cared deeply. โ€œI promise.โ€

He gave a slight, approving nod before stepping back. "Alright, letโ€™s get you to bed. You need rest."

"Well, well, look who finally decided to show up," Rafayel quipped, his tone dripping with playful sarcasm as you walked in.

You sighed, closing the door behind you. "I had a job, Rafayel. It took longer than expected."

He raised an eyebrow. "Oh, really? And here I thought you were out having fun without me."

Rolling your eyes, you knew he was just trying to get a rise out of you. "Seriously, Rafayel, it was work."

He stood up, sauntering over to you with that roguish charm that never failed to make your heart skip a beat.

"You could have at least called, you know. I was starting to think you found someone more interesting than me," he said, a mock pout on his lips.

"You know thatโ€™s not true," you replied, a small smile tugging at your lips despite your tiredness.

He stopped in front of you, his playful demeanor softening just a bit. "Yeah, yeah. Just donโ€™t make a habit of it," he said, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear. "I might start to get jealous."

Laughing softly, you felt the tension of the day melt away. "Iโ€™ll keep that in mind."

"Good," he said, leaning in closer. "Now, how about a proper welcome home kiss?"

You obliged, pressing a kiss to his cheek. His teasing nature might annoy and drive you crazy sometimes, but beneath it all, you knew he cared deeply for you.

As you pulled away, he smirked. "See? Was that so hard?"

Shaking your head, amused, you replied, "You're impossible."

"But you love me anyway," he retorted, his eyes twinkling with mischief.

"Yes, I do," you admitted, sighing softly in defeat at his annoyingly-childish charm.

"Out late, arenโ€™t we, sweetie?" Sylus remarked coolly, his tone controlled.

The lights were still on, and he was sitting in a sleek armchair, a glass of whiskey in hand, looking completely unbothered.

โ€œNice to see you too, Sylus,โ€ you said, setting your bag down and rolling your eyes. "The job just took longer than expected."

Standing up, he walked over to you with that confident, almost intimidating grace he always had. "You could have called," he said.

"And miss out on your reaction? Where's the fun in that?" you replied, a playful glint in your eyes.

He chuckled, almost a scoff of amusement, clearly enjoying the banter. "Fair enough. But next time, try not to keep me waiting."

"Impatient and bossy?" you teased, crossing your arms.

He smirked, his eyes glinting with amusement and something more intense. "Assertive, more like." He said, tilting your chin up. "Did you at least have a productive night?"

"It was fine. Just a lot of work," you said, trying to ignore the way your heart raced under his gaze.

"Good," he replied, his thumb brushing against your cheek. "I expect nothing less from you."

Raising an eyebrow, you didnโ€™t back down. "And I expect nothing less than a proper welcome home from my significant other."

He laughed, a deep raspy tone. "Demanding, arenโ€™t we? But I suppose youโ€™ve earned it."

Leaning in, he kissed you in the forehead, a mix of possessiveness and affection in the gesture. When he pulled back, his eyes still twinkled with that ever-present dominance.

"If you keep coming home this late, I might have to start tagging along on these jobs of yours," he said lightly, but with underlying seriousness.

"Like youโ€™d ever leave Onychinus for a night," you retorted, grinning knowing heโ€™d never leave it to the twins.

"True," he conceded. "But for you, I might make an exception."

โ•ฐ๏ฝก Honestly, yeah. As a F2P player, Infold really did milked their way here, either you are skipping a lot of banners to save up a guaranteed card or you're gonna have to spend money here. Either Infold could give more rewards, (bring back Journey feature or something alike), events or they could extend the banner time.

Before this issue gets drowned out like certain bootlickers do everytime..

Here's more on Papergames and Infoldโ€™s unreasonable money milking

Before This Issue Gets Drowned Out Like Certain Bootlickers Do Everytime..

โ€ข how it was worse and how certain things were slightly improved only after CN whales complained

โ€ข endless mistranslations aka issues with Lumiere's r2 solar pair bonus (Lumiere havers you might know) + the mistranslation and wrong flower still being mentioned on Xavier's Lightseeker Myth (it should be Forget-me-nots, not whatever that other flower is)

โ€ข JOURNEY

There used to be a feature where you used to get some extra rewards by completing certain actions per chapter of Main.

I started playing around end of May so i still experienced this. But this feature only lasted till 4 chapters??

And after the version 2.0 update, this feature was completely eradicated. Not even there for NEW players.

Genshin has rewards for even leveling up characters and artifacts (similar to protocores) to a certain level.

โ€ข lack of events (genshin runs at least 3-7 events at the same time)

โ€ข a lot of content locked behind cards, and even then the amount charged far more compared to the meagre content in said cards

โ€ข Reruns (though i believe they might happen from next year onwards)

โ€ข Insane Difficulty in leveling up cards

this game just doesn't allow people to have spare materials! forget hoarding, you can barely save on the materials you acquire..

Before This Issue Gets Drowned Out Like Certain Bootlickers Do Everytime..

compared to this.. I can't believe i have to praise Genshin and Star Rail again..

Below are 2 characters I pulled recently in Genshin, and I've managed to upgrade both in like a few minutes because Genshin allows me to keep spare materials instead of charging insane amounts to get a card to just level 40

You can see my in-game currency, my upgrade materials compared to the bare amount of bottles we get from Heartbreaker (and we don't even get the golden bottles for free)

โ€ข Reduction in the amount of New Event Rewards

someone pointed out how the Diamond rewards are lesser (from 750 to 500) for the upcoming event, compared to the past ones

Before This Issue Gets Drowned Out Like Certain Bootlickers Do Everytime..

โ€ข Amount of Banners in a Month

Y'all can call me annoying but doing this many number of banners in a month is INSANE. It allows no room for breathing to any LIs fans.

Xavier in the kitchen was almost a disaster waiting to happenโ€”no exaggeration. He had a knack for forgetting to turn off the stove or neglecting to set a timer, leaving his meals charred and inedible more often than not. While eliminating Wanderers with effortless precision was second nature to him, cooking seemed to be his weakness. Typically, Xavier gravitated toward quick, easy mealsโ€”cup noodles, ready-to-eat optionsโ€”and never fussed over what he ate.

Despite his mishaps, he genuinely put in the effort to learn, committing to recipes and working to improve. With time, practice, and a few burned pans later, he eventually became efficient in the kitchen. Once he mastered the basics, he started preparing large meals, focusing on quantity so youโ€™d never be short of options, making sure you had plenty of your favorites to choose from.

Zayne embodied the perfect image of husband material. Though his job as a Linkon doctor kept him busy with back-to-back surgeries and long hours at the hospital, he never failed to make time for youโ€”especially if you were craving his cooking. Despite his demanding schedule, he made it a priority to prepare meals whenever he came home, often late into the night, just to see your face lit up with each bite.

Zayne was meticulous in the kitchen, his precise nature extending from surgery to the ingredients he handled. Aside from his disdain for carrots, he had an impressive knowledge of different vegetables and how to bring out their natural flavors in every dish. Whether he was baking or cooking, he always followed the recipes to a tee, ensuring every detail was perfect, particularly when trying something new. His care and precision in the kitchen mirrored the way he treated youโ€”attentive, thoughtful, and deeply considerate.

Rafayel may come off as bratty and spoiled, but beneath that exterior, he harbored surprising culinary talent. It wasnโ€™t something he flaunted, considering that most of his meals were either prepared by Thomas, brought or ordered online. But when the mood struck him, Rafayel could whip up a dish with flair, though he often relied on instructions and recipes to guide him. His creativity shined through, however, as he loved experimenting and adding his personal touch to any recipe.

You were always his first taste-tester, the one heโ€™d eagerly present his latest creation toโ€”sometimes a surprisingly delicious innovation, other times an odd combination that left you questioning his choices.

Sylus, much like Zayne, could easily be considered husband material, though he typically didnโ€™t need to lift a finger in the kitchen thanks to his personal chef. Yet, when the occasion called for it, Sylus was more than capable of preparing a meal. Confident and knowledgeable, he rarely consulted recipes, instead relying on his sharp memory and expertise.

While patience wasnโ€™t his strong suit, he made an exception when you were involved. If you were there to taste his dish, Sylus would put his full effort into crafting a meal that catered to your palate, making sure each seasoning and flavor hit the right notes. For someone who thrived on power and control, cooking was one of the few activities where he allowed himself to slow down, focusing intently on every detail. After all, he wanted it to be perfect for you.

You grumbled softly at the uncomfortable sensation of your dry lips. It had been a constant problem lately. Fortunately, you always carried a chapstick with you. You shifted slightly from Xavierโ€™s warm embrace, where you had been cuddling, and his eyes followed you, curious. As you rummaged through your bag, he silently observed your movements with a calm fascination.

Pulling out the chapstick, you removed the cap, the pop sound breaking the silence of the room. You applied it slowly, biting and plucking your lips gently to ensure the balm spread evenly. When you turned back, you found Xavier watching you intently, his eyes filled with a curious softness, as if he were studying something new. He looked almost childlike in that moment, an adorable curiosity lighting up his features, which made you chuckle.

Returning to his side, you snuggled back into his arms, and he welcomed you without hesitation, wrapping his strong arms around your waist and pulling you in closer, his warmth enveloping you again.

โ€œWhat was that?โ€ he asked, a hint of curiosity lingering in his tone.

โ€œLip balm,โ€ you replied casually, looking up at him with a playful smile. โ€œFor dry lips.โ€

He nodded thoughtfully, his usual composed expression softening as he mused. Thatโ€™s when you noticed his own lips, slightly cracked at the edges. โ€œYouโ€™ve got some dry lips too,โ€ you pointed out, mimicking the motion on your own lips.

Xavier blinked, touching his bottom lip absentmindedly. You reached for the chapstick again but paused, a mischievous idea forming.

โ€œXavier,โ€ you called, drawing his attention with a sly tone. He looked at you, still innocently curious, and you cupped his cheeks gently. Leaning in, your lips met his in a soft kiss, the balm transferring smoothly onto his lips.

When you pulled away, you couldnโ€™t hide your triumphant smirk. His reaction was pricelessโ€”his ears turned a faint shade of red, and a soft blush crept over his cheeks. He blinked a few times, his gaze softening as he smiled at you, as if you had just made him fall for you all over again.

โ€œAgain,โ€ he whispered, his voice even softer than before.

โ€œWhatโ€”โ€

โ€œKiss me again.โ€

โ€œUghโ€ฆ my lips are cracked again,โ€ you groaned in frustration. The cold, rainy weather lately had done a number on your skin, especially your lips. It was becoming annoyingly routine.

Zayne, sitting at his desk reviewing surgical documents, sighed softly at your complaint. Without looking up, he shook his head in mild exasperation. โ€œYou should drink more water. Hydration is key.โ€

You pouted at his statement, knowing full well youโ€™d been drinking plenty. โ€œI do drink enough,โ€ you countered, unconsciously licking your lips, which brought a brief but welcome relief.

Zayne glanced up at you from his papers, his sigh a bit louder this time. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a tube of lip balm and handed it to you. โ€œDonโ€™t lick your lips. When the saliva dries, itโ€™ll make things worse.โ€

Accepting the balm, you stared at him, your eyes narrowing as they landed on his lips. โ€œWait, do you usually use this stuff?โ€ you asked, a little surprised.

โ€œI do,โ€ he answered simply, his attention shifting back to his documents. You couldnโ€™t help but notice how smooth and slightly glistening his lips looked, a fact that made you impulsively want to lean in and kiss him. You leaned forward slightly, but Zayne was quick, placing a firm hand on your shoulder before you could close the distance.

โ€œWhat are you doing?โ€ he asked, his tone calm but knowing.

Caught in the act, you huffed in mock annoyance, retreating with a playful pout. โ€œI wanted to kiss you since youโ€™ve already got balm on your lipsโ€ฆโ€ Your voice trailed off, a little embarrassed by your boldness.

Zayne didnโ€™t reply immediately. Instead, he set his papers aside, cupping your cheek with one hand as he expertly uncapped the balm with the other. He applied it to your lips with a gentle touch, the cool sensation of the balm contrasting with the warmth of his hand.

Just when you thought it was over, he finished applying the balm, then leaned in, his lips brushing yours in a soft, lingering kiss. The kiss was tender, yet it left your heart racing, as if it had been your first kiss all over again.

โ€œThere,โ€ he murmured, pulling away, the corner of his lips curling into a faint smile. You were certain youโ€™d melt into a puddle right there on the spot.

. . โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ… โบ.

โ€œRafayel! You need to put some lip balm on, your lips are cracking,โ€ you said, arms crossed as you lightly scolded the ever-dramatic mermaid.

He huffed in response, crossing his own arms in an exaggerated manner and turning away from you with a sharp flick of his hair. โ€œNo! Iโ€™ve never used that stuff, and I donโ€™t plan on starting now. Youโ€™re my bodyguard, not my nanny!โ€

It was impossible not to laugh at his theatrics. Most of the time, you felt more like you were babysitting him than anything else, whether you were on duty or spending time together outside of work.

Rafayel narrowed his gaze when he heard your chuckle. โ€œAre you laughing at me?โ€ he asked, a suspicious edge to his tone.

โ€œNot at all,โ€ you said with a smile that betrayed your denial. โ€œBut seriously, if you donโ€™t use something, your lips will start bleeding.โ€ You held out a tube of chapstick, but he shook his head vehemently.

โ€œIโ€™ll survive,โ€ he retorted, turning his head stubbornly.

You rolled your eyes and opened the tube, stepping closer. He backed away immediately, like a startled cat. โ€œI donโ€™t need it!โ€

โ€œYou do!โ€ you insisted, gripping his chin gently, but he kept squirming and moving, making it impossible to apply the balm. You probably smeared it on his cheek at this point.

โ€œStay still!โ€ you laughed, struggling to keep up with his evasive maneuvers.

โ€œNo!โ€ he whined dramatically, but you had a trump card. Without warning, you leaned in and kissed him, catching him completely off guard. His eyes widened, and he froze in place as your lips met his, allowing you to finally apply the balm.

Pulling back, you smirked and gave him another quick peck. โ€œSee? Now your lips are nice and smooth whenever I kiss you.โ€

Rafayel was left speechless, his cheeks flushed with embarrassment. He blinked, clearly malfunctioning from the surprise kiss.

. . โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ… โบ.

Sylus chuckled as he examined your collection of lip balms, spread across the bedside table. His deep voice resonated in the room, a soft echo in the intimate setting. โ€œWhy do you need so many different lip balms?โ€

You were lying on your stomach, scrolling through your phone, only half-listening. โ€œIn case I lose one,โ€ you said nonchalantly, barely glancing up.

โ€œUh-huh,โ€ Sylus drawled, clearly amused. โ€œAnd you need two extra pairs?โ€

โ€œThey smell different,โ€ you added, more engaged in your screen than the conversation. When you finally glanced up, you saw him inspecting the melon-flavored balm you used most often.

He twisted off the cap, raising it to his nose. โ€œSmells like melon, all right,โ€ he commented.

โ€œDonโ€™t you use one?โ€ you asked, tilting your head as you studied him.

Sylus raised an eyebrow, leaning against the edge of the bed. โ€œNot really,โ€ he replied smoothly. His eyes flickered with interest as he glanced at your lips. โ€œWhat flavor are you wearing now?โ€

โ€œStrawberry, I think?โ€ you replied, a bit unsure. You touched your lips, trying to catch the scent.

Sylus smirked at your uncertainty. โ€œWhy donโ€™t you try tasting it?โ€

Your brows furrowed, about to respond when Sylus leaned in, pressing his lips to yours before you could say another word. His hand found the back of your neck, pulling you closer as his tongue darted out, grazing your bottom lip.

The kiss took your breath away. When he pulled back, his signature smirk was firmly in place. โ€œYouโ€™re right,โ€ he said, his voice low and teasing. โ€œThereโ€™s no taste.โ€

Your lips tingled, and you could only stare at him, still processing what had just happened. Sylus motioned to his own lips, now coated with your chapstick. โ€œGuess I use lip balm now too.โ€

โ•ฐ๏ฝก Author's Note: I had this idea for a while now HAHA, glad to have written it off. For once, I didn't stumble much on Zayne's part actually. Also I apologize for the different blog designs (especially my pinned post) but I was trying to keep the designs more minimal since at some websites and especially in phones there's some symbols that can't be seen. I hope I eliminated that one.

I probably should work more on my tags as well.

เน‹ เฃญ โญ‘โ….แŸ (หถโ€พแท„ โปฬซ โ€พแท…หต) Decided to get some sun and touch some grass since online (minor) classes are making my brain rot and I'm a bit off motivation to write anything for now.

I'm a caffeine addict, so I got the coffee smoothie. My friend got the lemon smoothie one.

Here's some unrelated writing content~ ( หถห†แ—œห†หต )

I do have some pending projects to do and a few requests in mind. (\\๏ฟฃ ๏ฟฃ\)ใƒŽโœŽโœ“
