pyrodigy said: very disgruntled courier trudges through thick snow and up to the little house on the outskirts of Morepesok. One could guess they did not expect all that this delivery would entail when they agreed to it, from how eager they seem to leave as soon as they've knocked on the door and left a little chest in front of it. The box is simple in design, made of fragrant cedar wood and seemingly professionally crafted a glance, with its straight, even edges and smooth finish. Upon closer inspection though, one may notice several subtle carvings on the surface, depicting (more or less accurately) a number of creatures and animals. The contents of the box are similarly scattered; a small pile of black, red and purple petals from a familiar plant, a dried lampgrass, a starconch, a small jug of what appears to be grape juice, and a tiny accessory that looks an awful lot like the metal piece sewn into the glove of a certain harbinger - only, this one is embedded with a ruby. Most notably, a letter. " 𝒟𝑒𝒶𝓇 𝒜𝒿𝒶𝓍, 𝐼 𝓌𝒶𝓈 𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓇𝒿𝑜𝓎𝑒𝒹 𝓉𝑜 𝓁𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓃 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝓌𝑜𝓊𝓁𝒹 𝒷𝑒 𝒶𝒻𝒻𝑜𝓇𝒹𝑒𝒹 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓉𝒾𝓂𝑒 𝓉𝑜 𝑔𝑜 𝒽𝑜𝓂𝑒 𝑜𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝓋𝑒𝓇𝓎 𝓈𝓅𝑒𝒸𝒾𝒶𝓁 𝒹𝒶𝓎.

the package arrived hours before ajax did, and just as he came inside with ginger strands tussled by the frigid winds and clothing dusted with snow, tonia excitedly hopped up and proudly told him that she had put placed the chest up in his room. but not before giving him a big hug and happy birthday greeting, followed by a tinier body ramming into his leg at full speed and squeezing him tight, and another, less tiny and less excited hug coming from the opposite side. a warm greeting to the familiar air of his quaint little home in morepesok from both his family and his fiery little lovebird back in mondstadt.

his siblings were happy to see him on his birthday, and the rest of his day would prove to be very hectic and productive as he caught-up with his family. they sat around the warmth of the fireplace and talked about things he had missed while he was away; teucer lost another tooth, which he proudly showed off by stretching the corner of his mouth with his index finger. anthon was getting better at ice fishing. the way anthon looked at him was different now, not as filled with wonder and curiosity. he was getting older faster than ajax could keep up with, and his brother was growing cold and jaded far too soon for a kid his age. no child should turn that way, and he could feel the bitter taste of that realization in his mouth. then there was little tonia, oldest of the three but still so sweet and frail looking, she captured ajax’s attention with a persistent tug at his sleeve. she was eager to go next, and told him that she had been practicing cooking and knitting, the latter of which she proudly proclaims she knitted a whole scarf. diluc was always so cold the last time he came over, a cold that sometimes not even a pyro vision can help stave off. she knitted a nice scarf “full of love and seal kisses” and the next time he comes over, she would like to give it to him for herself.  they all made dinner together, packed in their tiny little kitchen bustling with busy bodies and warmth from the stove. ajax told them about what he had been doing since hes left home, or at least, maybe he would have in vague detail had teucer not been at the table too. he lied, saying he was in the midst of finishing up a newer toy, a bigger and better version of mr. cyclops. this was met to the incredulousness of young teucer, who exclaimed that “no one could be bigger and better than mr. cyclops!” and practically jumped out of his seat in awe at the news. “its true, its true!” ajax laughed, calming teucer with a gentle ruffling of his hair as his little brother had excitedly gotten out of his seat and ran to ajax’s side as if in doing so, he would will his brother’s creation into existence right that very moment. “next time i visit, i will bring it to you. how does that sound?” their little home felt so warm and full that night around the table, even father willed himself up in his sickly state to join and gave ajax a hearty clap on the shoulder. the whole family pitched in to help clean off the table and toil away at the dishes, assembling a full line of washing, drying, and putting away the silverware. ajax helped teucer into bed, tucking him in and telling them good night. tomorrow brought more warmth and comfort, and maybe for a moment, he could forget about what his normal was. outside of home, his normal was different. as a harbinger, he too had his own agenda just like all the rest, but as the lowest ranking fatui, the bindings of his collar were a bit tighter than most. next was tonia, tucked in with her favorite seal stuffy and a puff, blowing out the candle at her bedside. anthon’s door was already closed, dismissing himself for the night and showing he was already independent.  after a long day, it was time for ajax to turn in as well. locking the door behind him as he walked into his old room, his back pressed against the door he felt himself deflate against it with a long exhale. the smiles and bright eyes he willed into his face faded like the flick of a switch, feeling cold creep into his chest as he looks around his room. everything remained just as he left it last, untouched from his younger years meshed with the few new trinkets he had brought home as of the past few recent years. he saw the gift tonia mentioned earlier that day, nestled neatly in the center of his bed. it looked so spacious without diluc on the other side of his bed, they were so cramped curled up in this bed the last time diluc was here, but he had never remembered himself as comfortable then as he ever had been in his own sheets.  ajax lights a candle and sets it at his bedside, sitting across from the chest he admires the intricacies carved into the box itself. diluc was so skilled with a knife, in more ways than one, and certainly more ways than he would ever admit. an owl and a hawk, animals that embodied diluc, a whale and a moth, animals that embodied childe, a wolf, of mond, a bear, of snezhnaya. those were the whittled creatures he had been able to keep from that day, lined up neatly on his highest shelf just above his bed, looking down upon him. diluc had made more, but ajax was not able to save them all. to ajax’s own amusement, he quite liked the addition of the seal carved onto the chest too.  after an appreciative run over the wood with his hands, ajax opens the chest to peek at its contents. the smell of cedar and a familiar flora fills the room more strongly as he does, and it reminds him of the lush grasses and fields of mond. the flowers catch his eyes immediately, and he finds himself tenderly running a finger along the blue petals of the lampgrass, a favorite of diluc’s. the note is gently tucked underneath one of the bloodflowers, and scooting closer to the candlelight, he feels his heartbeat race.  a letter....? an actual letter from diluc? ajax had never received an actual letter from diluc before. he had written him so many during the long span of time that they were separated, but he had never received a response in return. diluc had good reason for it, he knew, and ajax had seen and read all of the unsent letters in diluc’s drawer from all of that passed time, but never in his life did he think he’d be holding a written letter from diluc sent directly to him in his hands. his hand-writing was so neat, professional, with each word made with tactful discipline and purpose. ajax found his hands were shaking from the excitement and that the words he was reading were not cognitively reaching his brain. when he realized, he eased up, letting another couple of exhales calm him before trying to read through the letter again.  diluc had grown such a soft spot with little tonia, and he could tell his thoughts were with her as she was the first sibling he asked about. but he clearly knew her well, because he was right, she had been just as excited to see him as his brother’s were-with perhaps a slight exception to anthon. ajax’s fingers traced over each individual item within the trunk as diluc named them off in his letter-the lampgrass, the strarconch, and the flowers, with a laugh. that noise choked in his throat, and the sound stuck there as diluc finished his paragraph. “you belong over here, too.”  that was...right, right? could someone as bad as himself belong and be wanted anywhere else? it wasnt a thought he often dwelled on. somehow, diluc being sure that the answer was yes to that question hurt more than pondering the question itself.  his hand fell to the grape juice, and it made ajax remember the night of the festival at the bar where diluc ordered a grape juice and wore the sweetest little blush of embarrassment on his face as though he were expected to drink alcohol there. when ajax ordered one too, ajax saw his face brighten up, easily bright enough to lighten the whole room had there been no light. he will never forget that day, and even though the moon was high in the sky now, ajax would ensure that his siblings would get to try dawn winery grape juice the following day.  a bit of rummaging procured the ruby laden piece for his glove, a fond look overcoming ajax’s expression as he gently twirled it in his fingers. for diluc’s family, the ruby was a symbol of protection from the wrath and fury of flame, and childe had adapted various of those ruby gifts into trinkets all about his outfit. but this time, diluc had the entire trinket assembled for him beforehand, and a welcome addition to his arsenal too. it was such high quality too, while he could find any tailor to toil with it, he’d much rather have an excuse to visit diluc and adelinde at his estate to get it fixed up. the last bit of the letter colored his cheeks a gentle dust of pink, and a wistful, pitiful noise croaked from his throat as if dispelling the sound that was once stuck there. he fell back against his bed, note in hand as he looked at the empty pillows and empty space where diluc should be. “yours, wholeheartedly.” he muttered diluc’s closing words, sacred on his tongue as he lidded his eyes gently. squinting as he remembered his sleepy baby nestled into his sheets, pretty red strands of hair flowing along the bed like crimson rivers. if he narrowed his eyes hard enough, maybe he could picture him there just as he had been before. maybe he could fool himself into thinking diluc really was there, the shards of childhood naivety and imagination he still harbored would will him into existence even.  he wished he was here. “just a little while longer now,” ajax wanted to thank him for the gifts, to hold him, to tell him how much he missed him especially on nights like this. this was their warm, quaint little home, but the nights were always cold. “i’ll be home soon.”

@mrcyclopsfan​ asked: "He broke!" He's holding up Mr. Cyclops, the leg having been torn off at some point. "Can you fix him?"

“ did he now?” a meager desk he sat at in their meager home in morepesok, but their meager this, and their meager that, for ajax, it was more than enough. so long as his family was safe and well-cared for, it didn’t matter. his dark features only dimly lit by the orange glow of the candle, he turns in his seat and leans forward to take young tuecer’s toy in his hands. “ well, lets have a look. “  under the light of the flame, ajax turns the toy in his hands. its one of his little brother’s most prized possessions and he handles it with care. “ i’m a toy maker, after all, of course i can! ” his voice is chipper but his eyes are as dark as the corners of the room. in reality, he was no toy maker, but it was the roll he would continue to play as long as he needed to. “besides. for my dearest little brother? i can do anything. “ and everything, if it meant he would be happy. no one would stand in his way.  “ it looks like i need a few things. as a matter of fact, i could even use another pair of eyes and hands too, do you want to help? “

@aalberich​ asked: "well, then."   a cheeky grin tugs kaeya's lips up at the corners as he holds up the shot glass in a toast.   "to a bold experiment:   may the best man be the man left standing at the end of the night." yes, he really does think he can out-drink childe when it comes to fire-water.   see this hill, right here ?   this is the hill he's chosen to die on.

to clamber upon such a steep slope paved with ice and malintent, one must wonder if a cryo wielder such as the man before him finds solace in the frigid murmurs of that very-hypothetical-hill painted on sullied snow. for the ice and the snow was his home, and the red that threatens to spill upon it was just as familiar. 

“ aha . . . is that what you’re calling it now?” the harbinger laughs, raising his glass to meet the stranger’s so that they clink! together. “it is my fire-water after all, are you certain that you didn’t get yourself into this just to try it out for yourself?” with the drink now pressed to his lips he can breathe in its familiar scent. unnatural and overwhelming, the smell alone burning his nostrils and drying his throat in vigorous heat. “still,” childe mutters before he downs the shot, pesky blue eyes meeting his companions curled smile. “i would never doubt a stranger of their abilities, but of course, dont think for a second that i’ll go easy on you either. “

@pyrodigy​ humid afternoon gusts fill the room with their summer whispers from the window left gently ajar. although the second story room of diluc’s office had not originally  been left unattended this way, a certain harbinger had become a master at breaking-and-entering into his favorite pyro’s chambers. perhaps much to the disdain of the staff at dawn winery and to the irritation of the master of the estate himself, such reckless behavior was becoming of the eleventh who let no barrier nor obstacle interfere with obtaining what he wanted.

or who, he wanted. “ did you miss me? “ and he always wanted him. although such things must not come to any surprise to diluc, even if doing so reinforced the love and loyalty he has for him. and most assuredly, how could diluc ever forget? it was what the eleventh was tasked with years ago, and even now, he would always return to him. “ in record time, even. it’s only been about a week now, hasn’t it? “  ajax leans his head against the side of diluc’s, tilting back and curling his lips so that his teeth cuff playfully at the shell of diluc’s ear. his arms loosely weave around his torso, one of them balled into a fist as though he is holding something within it.

I hate to do this, but we’re really struggling. Rent is due soon and we’re behind because we’ve had to apply for so many apartments. We were unsure why we kept being rejected. Turns out we owed money to one of our previous apartments. Paying that off took all of what we had saved for moving costs and some of what we needed for rent.

Plus I just got over pneumonia, so I was unable to do much work lately. I’m still fighting for disability, but it looks like I may not get it unless my wife and I get a divorce.. Which also costs money we don’t have right now. 

I can’t work a traditional job because of all my health problems. Medical bills keep piling up, too, but those are less immediate than the threat of homelessness. 

My current income is limited to what I sell on etsy. I would really appreciate it if you could give the shop a look at and, if you’re interested, placing an order? Custom order are available! If you have a scent in mind, let me know. It doesn’t have to be Genshin themed. I have more essential oils than I care to count! Chances are, I have what you’re looking for. I’m also willing to make customs based on just.. whatever you like!

If you still want to help out, but can’t order/don’t want to order right now, my Ko-fi is here!
