Ajax - Tumblr Posts
Nestor is the good intention but old-school mom
Odysseus is or the sassy aunt, the grumpy dad or the big brother who´s fed up with everybody´s non-sense , he becomes the emo in the Odyssey though...
Ajax, depends who.
Patroclus yes.
Achilles the spoilt bratty little sibling who can´t do anything bad but ends up in jail for smoking
Agamemnon: We're like a big, happy family! And I'm the dad, and Nestor's the mom- Nestor: Why am I the mom? What gender roles are we pushing here? Odysseus: I know you're thinking I'll be the son or something, but I'm not. I'll be the gay, emo cousin. Ajax: I am the son, the hotshot, whose only dream... is to be a star. Patroclus: I feel like I'd be a... fresh outta jail uncle! Achilles: And I'm the sassy aunt. Who talks shit about everyone.
Secrets
Childe x reader fluff
The fighting grew louder as the smugglers attempted to retreat back to camp but were followed ruthlessly. They'd finally met their end. The month of being treated like cattle and hearing what a pretty penny you'd sell for could be over.
One of the smugglers runs to the cage and opens it, grabbing you by the hair and pulling you out, "Lets go. The boss still needs this payout."
You groan and decide to take your chance. You grab the hilt of the sword he keeps to his side and pull, the sound familiar to you. You'd been a adventurer up until these idiots over powered you to sell you off.
If they hadn't gotten your vision away from you, they'd all be dead right now. That's how infuriating they are. You'd break your vow to never kill a human on these buffoons.
And now you hold true to that as you thrust all of your energy into the blade moving through the man. He gasps and lets go of your hair immediately, falling backwards.
You let go and run for the tent where the put your supplies. Thank the Archons they didn't break anything.
With your personalized sword and vision in hand, you head back out only to get caught in the thick of the fight.
You quickly notice the orange haired man who stands out from the rest of the convoy. He looks almost surprised when he sees you fighting the smugglers. Then again, most of the men who aren't with the smugglers look surprised by the stranger who is fighting along side of them.
As the last smuggler drops, your body suddenly becomes aware of how exhausted it is from a month of barely any food and constantly being shoved around. You go to put away your sword properly only for the man who stood out to take a swing at you, the rest of the group watching intently.
Your blade blocks his out of instinct and your eyes widen, "Wait please... they held me captive to sell me... I have no quarrel with you... in fact I'd appreciate any help I could get..."
His eyes glance around subtly then his sigh, "You have a choice then. Serve me and the Tsaritsa, or fight me right now."
You frown and kneel down. You know you wouldn't stand a chance to fight him right now. You can sense he held back on that strike, and you practically lost your grip when your blades clashed. You'll just have to bide your time until your strength is recovered and you can fight properly. "Fine. I'm at your comand."
He nods, his water blades vanishing before your eyes, and picks you up shockingly gently. "I will treat your wounds. I expect medical supplies in my tent as soon as we are back to our camp."
"Yes sir!" Someone yells and they all start heading back for the camp.
The man walks back in silence and lays you on a cot in what seems to be a private tent. Just as he lays you down, one of his soldiers drops off supplies and leaves just as fast. He sits beside you, and he seems to instantly become a different person, "I am Childe. I'm honestly quite impressed you could fight while looking so... worse for wear. I won't ask anything much of you, I promise. That whole serve me thing was for show. Though I do expect a fight before you leave. I'm interested in seeing your skills at full strength. And I refuse to let you leave my side without showing me that you are at full strength."
You look confused, "Is this some twisted way of saying you want to ensure I actually get better?"
He just looks at you, then the supplies, "Did they cause any damage to you that needs immediate attention? If not we will just have a doctor look at you when to the city."
You sigh, "I'm fine. With a little food I'll be able to heal myself."
"I actually insist you don't use your vision right now. It may make the men think you're trying to escape. We don't need that mess." He says casually.
You sigh, "Fine. No vision use."
"I'll make you something to eat that should help." He says gently and leaves the tent.
Your mind wanders, who is this man? How can he go from kill to help with just a few words?
You feel yourself start to doze off and only stay awake because the promise, and smell, of a meal is something you've been praying for.
Over the next month, the trip leads the convoy to Liyue. Childe has a set of rules you have to follow in front of the others, but in private you actually find yourself free to do as you please. And you won't admit it, but you have grown fond of his company in private.
Over the coming months in Liyue you find yourself back to full strength and even joining Childe on some jobs he has to do. He's fascinated by your unique fighting style. He apparently hasn't met many Dendro Vision users who fight, and certainly not the way you fight.
The Fatui he controls are quite impressed that you are so loyal to him for technically being a captive. They all assume that it's because of the punishments he has laid out for you are that intense. They also take note of how he seems to have began to spoil you with material items.
Childe will buy you almost anything you want. He says they are rewards for behaving and being faithful to him as you'd promised. You just wonder if that's all it is.
One evening, after the chaos of a literal ancient being attacking Liyue, Childe looks to you as he packs. "Y/n. We are headed back to the motherland. Now is the time for you to challenge me for your freedom." His movements to pack have stopped and he almost looks sad.
"Is that what you want?" You question him.
He looks confused, "No. But a promise is a promise. And now is the last chance you will have. Once we return, you will have to swear full allegiance."
You step towards him tentively, "And what if I want to stay by your side?"
"Why would you want that? You've seen the chaos I cause." He says firm.
You smile softly, "And I've seen the good in you. The way you care about your family... You are protecting them... but who is protecting you?"
Childe shifts, looking more confident, "I protect myself."
You raise a hand to his cheek, fingers trembling a little nervous. You are scared he will flat out reject you, but he instead subtly leans to the touch. You speak softly, "Wouldn't you like to have someone you can trust travel with you?"
He sighs, "We would have to keep up this front where you follow my rules to the dot. And in front of the other Harbingers and the Tsaritsa, it would be even stricter. I wouldn't be able to claim you are punished in private then. They'd want to see proof."
You smile some, "Then I guess I'll have to be on my best behavior..."
His hands find your waist, "Are you positive this is what you want?"
You nod, "I've never felt more conviction than this..."
He touches his forehead to yours, "Then we leave at dawn..."
You smile and gently peck his lips, before pulling back, "I should get packing..." You eyes glance to the floor nervously.
He pulls you close to him, "I will protect you... just please, don't break any rules in front of the Harbingers or the Tsaritsa... I never want to hurt you..."
You wrap your arms around him, "I trust you, no matter what. I will do whatever you say in their presence... I'll do my best that we never face that situation..."
He nods softly and lets you go. You pull back yourself and the both of you finish packing your belongings.
The trip to Snezhnaya is long, and the weather just gets colder the closer to the region you get. At night you snuggle close into Childe's side for warmth. During the day you are greatful for the sun's warm rays.
Some members of the Fatui had taken a liking to your presence in the group and would use their flame visions to help warm you if the wind picked up even. Apparently they felt bad to see you shiver so much when you were such a loyal and kind person.
Upon reaching the Tsaritsa's castle, you were ushered to follow Childe directly into the main hall. Before he could even give his greeting, she is already staring at you, "So this is the pet I've been hearing of?"
You bow in silence as Childe had earlier instructed, he himself giving a bow as well, "It is indeed. She has sworn loyalty to you and provided great assistance in your goals at my side. With your blessing, I would like to keep her at my side to work for you."
"Is that so? I want to hear it from her." The Tsaritsa's voice is firm.
You look to her, then Childe who nods and smiles, then back to her, "It would be a honor to serve you at his side."
She glares, stepping closer and grabbing your jaw in her hand. Her eyes seem to pierce into your soul as she looks into your own. "You have potential. I expect to see you both at the meeting coming up. I want to see how well she follows the rules in a social setting."
Childe nods, "Of course. I will make sure she is fully prepared for it."
The woman nods and walks back to her throne, dismissing you both with a wave. Once outside, Childe begins leading you through the snow covered lands. It is another half an hour before he speaks and turns to you, "You handled that amazing... I was concerned she'd find what you said too informal though. Please be on your gaurd."
You grab his hand gently and nod, "I will. And I'll make sure to sound more formal in our next meeting with her and the others."
He smiles and kisses you, a gentle peck before smiling playfully. "We aren't far from my home. Let's go introduce you. They will adore you."
"Do the rules apply in the house?" You look curiously.
He shakes his head, "Not at all. You can relax around my family. Just... if the kids bring up toy selling... that's a cover for what I really do." He looks down, "I don't want them learning the truth of what I do while so young..."
"Makes sense. I'd bet you'd make a amazing toy seller." You slide your hands up to his elbow and hold close to him as you both walk.
Once at the house, Childe is instantly jumped on by the youngest, the others following suite in a more calm manner. His mother walks straight to you and smiles warmly, "He has written about you often since you met. It is good to finally meet you in person."
"It's my pleasure. I've heard so much about all of you." You smile warmly back.
"Come inside, you'll catch a cold out there." She says gently, but her eyes are looking behind you.
You glance back, only to see a figure that backs away and vanishes from view all together in the snow that's started to fall. You turn back and head inside, knowing you're being watched.
Over the next few days, you grow close to the family. His older siblings are in shock. They tell you of how he vanished into the woods when younger, and that when he returned something had changed. As if he'd lost a part of himself. They said that it's almost like you brought that part of him back.
Genshin Impact Scenarios
Hi so this is the continuation of Childe's part of my mini series featuring genshin boys as your protective brother, and how they react when they meet your s/o. I hope you enjoy! Also requests are always open!
Pt.2 of Childe
Ajax exe. has stopped working. Who in the HELL has the nerve to kiss his sibling! Well he's about to find out. He starts stomping over ready to give this person a piece of his mind when something even MORE shocking happened you kissed them BACK, now he really stops in place for a second before he almost seems to teleport in front of you and pushes you two apart
To say you were shocked was an understatement, you were so startled you almost choked!
AJAX?! What are you doing here?!
Your shock quickly turned to panic when you saw your brothers steel gaze that looked downright murderous towards your s/o
Ajax decided to ignore you for the moment his attention was on your s/o who to their credit was calm and didn't look scared at all...yet at least Ajax thought
Your s/o as calm as they were, they were visibly confused and they made their confusion known as they asked "who are you?"
You were nervous and you got even more nervous when Ajax smiled, now to anyone who didn't know him it looked genuine, but to you who had known your beloved older brother your whole life you knew it was forced, fake, and cold. It was the stare he gave to enemies
"Who am I?!" Ajax was getting increasingly more upset, "I'm their older brother!" He said as he glared
Your s/o finally showed signs of being nervous and they visibly paled, wait...was this the overprotective brother you mentioned that you had the closest relationship to out of all your siblings and who had practically raised you, and hated anyone who he deemed to be a threat to you?!
You decide that you might want to intervene before Ajax caused anymore of a scene, his raised voice had attracted the eyes and attention of nearby customers, you quickly pulled your brother with you as you excused yourself and told your s/o you would be back in a moment
Ajax was protesting as you dragged him away from your s/o and to the back of the restaurant where you could explain, he glared at your s/o as he was dragged😅
He stood there with his eyebrow raised and a look that practically screamed want to tell me what the HELL is going on?!
You sighed and admonished yourself silently for trying to hide something from him, as well as being protective he was very nosy😑
You took a deep breath and said "Ajax the person you just saw in there is my s/o"
His reaction wasn't as bad as you imagined to your relief, but then again he had just saw you kiss, he might be a little oblivious but he isn't stupid
He just stared at you for a minute and just as you thought he might be okay with it you were proven wrong (ofc you were you thought🥲🙄) "you're not seeing them" he said as he grabbed your wrist and tried to pull you with him
To his surprise YET AGAIN (this day was definitely becoming just full of surprises wasn't it?) you pulled your wrist away and said " No Ajax I really like them and as much as I love you, you have to let me make my own decisions for my life! I know you're just worried but you need to trust me!"
He paused, he didn't want you to think he didn't want you to think he didn't trust you but he didn't want to except that you were growing up fast and that you wouldn't always have just him in your heart, he would have to share 😃😭
He just sighed he realized that he had to let you grow on your own, but hey that doesn't mean he can't still look out for you! He always will no matter what, he doesn't trust this person, but if they make you happy he'll give them a chance *sigh*
Ajax looked at you and said "okay you can date them but if they ever and I mean EVER hurt you, you tell me okay?
You couldn't believe it! He actually agreed?! You nodded your head excitedly and with the biggest smile hugged your brother tight!
"Don't worry Ajax" you said "I'll always love you, your my big brother and my best friend you'll always be first in my heart"
Poor boy MELTED he couldn't believe his little sibling was growing up so fast 😭 he would miss you when you really grew up and went out on your own in the world
But he would always be there for you, you and his family come first in his heart, always, so no matter where you are you can always count on big brother Ajax
The two of you will look out for each other and keep each other happy like always :)
So that's the end of Pt.2, I hope you enjoyed! I'll post the next one soon it's gonna be Kaeya this time! Well Bye~
Love ya'll~ Lightning out

Y'all PLEASE I saw this cup at the store last night and. Please. Imagine Childe drinking out of it. Traveler or Teucer or Zhongli(whoever you want) would get it for him and he'd LOVE IT and bring it to Harbinger meetings and it would be AMAZING.
my archon
— you sit on the floor by his leg and lay your head on his lap; how does he react?
◇ characters ◇ zhongli, al haitham, cyno, tighnari, xiao, ayato, childe, wanderer
◇ tags ◇ mostly fluff, slightly suggestive on some, petnames (dear, little one - zhongli | bunny, babe - childe | puppy - ayato)
◇ a/n ◇ is this an excuse for me to imagine getting into a position to worship zhongli? yes. yes it is-
𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑙𝑖𝑠𝑡 ⬙ 𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑙𝑖𝑠𝑡
zhongli, ever the gentleman, frowns at seeing you sit on the hard cold flooring and caresses your cheek gently, his other hand settling on your shoulder.
“that must be uncomfortable, dear. come rest on-”
he blinks, brows furrowing when you tell him that you want to stay down there by his feet. the protests die in his throat at the reverent gaze you give him, and something stirs in his chest. a nostalgic feeling that takes him millennia back; to the olden times when he was a feared deity of a more… disagreeable temperament.
“…. very well. but at least sit on a cushion, please,” a flutter of his long eyelashes, and for a moment you catch the shadow of his former self behind his amber eyes, “if you are so intent to worship me, who am i to refuse, little one? you already do look the part of a devoted worshipper….. hm... why don’t i teach you how to do this properly.”
al haitham glances away from his book to raise his eyebrows in amusement toward you.
“what are you doing?” he asks plainly; several possibilities pop up in his sharp-witted brain, but he would rather hear your intention from your own lips rather than blindly guess what your unexpectedly unique mind has concocted this time.
you hum nonchalantly and grab the free hand that isn’t holding his book, insistently tugging on it when he doesn’t budge. with a sigh, he lets you maneuver the appendage so it rests against the top of your head. with a roll of his eyes and a slight redness to his ears, he starts to tend to your hair, blunt nails scratching against your scalp every now and then in a way that you always praise him for doing.
“you’re a strange one, [name].”
hey, they do say birds of a feather flock together, right?
tighnari gives you a look. you know. that sassy side eye and a crooked smile threatening to lift one corner of his lips?
“am i not the one who’s supposed to be given headpats and pampering?” he asks teasingly, slightly moving his feet to nudge on your sides.
your boyfriend laughs at the playful glare you give him, and he releases the pen from his fingers to give you your much-needed pats. his eyes soften at the way you lean onto his touch, and he slumps backward onto his seat, exhaustion starting to settle in after hours of working on those reports and manuals.
“ten more minutes, and then it’s my turn.”
childe blinks owlishly at first, lips parted in surprise when you just decide to do this while he was just chilling on the sofa after a long day at work. his expression quickly turns into a teasing boyish grin, however, and he opts to squish your cheeks with his fingers.
“awww, seems like someone really missed me, hmm?” he leans down to place a quick kiss on your puckered lips, “why don’t you climb onto my lap, bunny? i can give you all the attention you’ve missed~”
he frowns when you refuse, and his clear blue eyes darken when you insistently hug one of his legs, your cheek pressing onto his thigh.
“be careful there, babe. you might start something if you keep that up.”
“what…. is the meaning of this, if i may ask?” cyno asks, flustered, the cards in his hands forgotten.
just seconds ago, you had pushed away the album containing his tcg cards from his lap and replaced it with your pretty head. while he doesn’t mind the sudden change at all - he can always sort out his cards later, you always come first, of course - he’s both befuddled and unsure of what you wish for him to do when you give him those pair of puppy eyes with this unfamiliar arrangement.
he follows your gaze that is locked onto his hand, which prompts him to discard his cards on top of the album and place them on your cheek, calloused thumb slowly drawing circles as he gives you a silent questioning gaze.
when you close your eyes in bliss, he chuckles, and he moves his other hand to settle on your other cheek before leaning down to kiss you on your forehead.
“how is it that you get more and more adorable the more we spend time with each other?”
kaeya raises his eyebrows, the hand swirling the glass of wine stopping its movements completely as he feels you hug his leg and place your head on his lap. instinctively, his free hand brushes against your cheek.
mischief colors the tone of his voice as you lovingly kiss his knuckles and give him those doe eyes he adores.
“my, a free leg warmer? how kind of you.”
he laughs in response to the playful slap you delivered to his thigh.
“so, are you planning to climb onto my lap anytime soon, or?”
another slap, another laugh, and kaeya leans down to place a kiss on the crown of your head.
“i have to ask - does this leg warmer come with the service of a wine glass holder? hmm? how about a-” [lines redacted to keep this sfw]
“wha- g-get up! you shouldn’t-” xiao splutters in embarrassment, trying to grab onto your shoulders to pull you into a standing position.
his shock is quickly overwritten by utter confusion when you protest and insist on staying where you are. he ceases trying to move you from the spot, but he decides to ask, “-i… don’t understand. isn’t it uncomfortable? what are you hoping to gain from this?”
the yaksha is still at a loss even after you answer. it’s illogical, he thinks. if his attention is what he wants, why would you choose to have this discomfort when you can just sit beside him and achieve the same thing? does this position have a special meaning to mortals? he’s only seen it on the illustration of that silly romance novel written by an apparently famous mortal from inazuma that you were reading about a week ago, telling a story about a deity and his favored subject- oh.
“…. you’re so weird,” he grumbles, suddenly avoiding your eyes as redness begins to creep onto his cheeks. he is most definitely not a being worthy of worship….. but he supposes if it’s you… he can indulge, right? just for a little….
“oh dear, it seems like someone’s bored,” ayato chuckles, not even looking down from his paperwork as he repositions his legs on his plush armchair, “unfortunately, puppy, i am currently working and unable to tend to your whims.”
his smile only gets wider when he hears you whine and tug on the sleeves of his kimono. what a greedy little thing; your adorableness truly knows no bounds, he muses in amusement. but it is true that he might have been quite neglectful of your needs the past few days…
but it’s no fun to just give in that easily.
ayato gives you a glance and two short pats that are far too brief to your liking, before he returns his attention to his papers, but not before saying with a teasing edge to his tone, “stay like that for an hour while i finish my work, and i’ll give you all my attention after, alright?”
wanderer smirks and crosses his arms before leaning back on his chair, clearly amused and pleased at the sight. he attempts to move his leg away, and when you whine and chase after the limb, the puppet barks out an amused laugh, mirth dancing like electric sparks within his eyes.
“look at you, so needy and desperate for my attention,” he rolls his eyes in fake exasperation, though he doesn’t bother hiding the pleased toothy grin on his expression, “what? what do you want?”
he parries your hand away when you reach out for him, a disbelieving huff of breath escaping the ex-harbinger. the flick on your forehead is playful, and the same tone carries to his next words, like a fleeting wisp of breeze cheekily grazing your skin.
“you think you can order me around as you please? think again,” his voice lowers into a darker and softer drawl, “aren’t you already in the correct position? beg, and then, maybe i’ll consider fulfilling your request.”
