the ball that was held in the wonderfully magical palace was beautiful, the coldness that trickled all around the whole nation was decreased as the palace held warmth and peace.

snezhnaya was halting work for around half to a day as one of the fatui harbingers, la signora, had died, in a land by the name of inazuma. the fatui army and the land of snezhnaya were in mourning for la signora.

the following night, a ball was held for the most higher ups, the harbingers, fatui members, and general people that were loyal to the tsaritsa, the cryo archon.

y/n conversed and talked with several people, talking of how the palace was beautiful, or talking in mourning for la signora.

"she was truly loyal to the tsaritsa, i hope she rests well."

"as do i."

the man she was talking to was some random fatui member, he was disgusting the way he kept trying to creep onto several woman that were attending the ball.

"would you care to,"

she trailed her finger along his arm, following up,

"follow me?"

she teased, walking away in the opposite direction to him and walking towards two doors that were opened at the back, he immediately followed her, looking at her in the most revolting and sickening way ever, she almost wanted to die talking to him.

-

"so, what do you want to do?-"

the man was knocked out from the back of his head, y/n holding her hand and massaging it from the amount of pressure that she hit the man with.

"disgusting.."

she shuffled him to a nearby room and placed him upright in a sitting position and began to rummage through his suit jacket pockets.

truth be told, she was a spy from the mondstadt city, she was friends with venti and the way la signora ripped his gnosis from his chest made her greatly wanting to take revenge.

trying to find out clues of their plans and of the tsaritsa, she was going to sneak around the ball, trying to find out their big big plan. or in this case, a key to the doors to lead her to her plan.

"what are you doing here?"

y/n's eyes widened, turning around to find a similar dressed man to the knocked out man himself,

"i'm going to have to arrest you under the division of the fatui-"

she swung her legs from her crouched position to knock the man off his feet, his head landing to the floor hard and giving him a concussion instantly, she stood up, placing her heel to his chest.

"where are the harbinger headquarters currently?"

he had already been knocked out, too delusional to even talk as he sputtered out random noises. she groaned, stepping over him and the closing the door behind her, locking it from the outside and walking towards another pair of large doors, walking through, turning around and closing them.

"hi pretty!"

y/n whipped her head around again, ready to have to fight another person, but not yet, because he seemed friendly..

"what are you doing here?"

he smiled, looking at her with a fake smile and a gleam in his eyes.

"oh i just lost my way, i'm sorry sir, i'll be off now-"

"don't act like we didn't see each other in liyue."

her fake facade slipped, her smile dropping and her hands dropping to her sides,

"i thought you wouldn't remember, childe."

"y/n, you know i never forget a pretty face when i see one. c'mon, we should be together like old times."

"sorry but isn't your 'friend' dead? why do you seem so happy to see me."

"i can't think about other things? plus, i didn't really like her anyway."

"give me your plan, childe, what does your tsaritsa want?"

"i thought you would call me ajax? kiss me and maybe i'll tell you."

"i'm not kissing you right now."

"why not?"

"we're practically enemies, ajax-"

"ohoh! you call me ajax now!"

"shut your mouth-"

ajax stepped closer, wrapping his arms around her waist and bunching up her dress around her waist area.

"i missed us."

he tucked his face into the crook of her neck, his lips touching her neck in the softest way ever. y/n's eyes fluttered opened and closed and she nearly forgot what she was here in the first place for.

"you know how long, i've been waiting for you for? i've been wishing to see you again ever since i saw you walking in liyue and we made eye contact and you walked away with zhongli."

ajax was still so close to her, leaning away a little but having his hands holding her by her biceps.

"you.. you hurt the traveller, ajax."

"and i'm so sorry for that. i need you, so bad- you don't even know."

ajax made eye contact with her, staring at her with love and hope.

"please, let's be together again, i love you."

y/n was silent the entire time, choosing her eyes to let them dart towards his eyes then the lips, slowly closing the distance between them.

the voice in her head was begging and screaming at her to not do it again, but she couldn't turn away from ajax, not again.
