oh my fucking god i feel. SO stupid rn at How i didnt make the (super sane very normal just absolutely. Yes. Surely) connection earlier but uhh
so anyway im now like 89% certain that whatever the "traces" of the narwhal that remain on ajax and facilitate their (ever-growing) innate connection are like. an actually fundamental aspect of it (them?) more or less.
why? because if you consider its pov just for a moment. the narwhal was literally about to depart teyvat for good. it had nearly finished consuming the primordial sea and preparing to breach surface to finish the job by eating the french for the leftovers their human bodies were made from. its an interstellar voyager it does not linger on planets it devours. it goes glug glug and it leaves.
and like if it wasnt for traveler intervening its confirmed through narzissenkreuz and renes world formula that teyvat wouldve just been destroyed. no one could have stopped the narwhal not neuvillette not focalors not anyone.
so what was the one other thing it did right before going for that french brunch? calling for ajax. getting them reunited in the primordial sea. like all the possible implications aside bc theres many different ways to speculate on the exact reasons why and the nature of that link. the point remains.
it wasnt leaving teyvat without finding him.
like the narwhal is about to fucking Dip from this cringe planet and whatever part of it that ajax carries within himself his narwhal Absolutely wanted to be reunited with. what the fuck am i supposed to read from that. hoyo???????!??! answers?!?!?!
and its not only the calling from the narwhal side itself either bc this is ALL coinciding with the growth of a 'restless power' within ajax and his vision malfunctioning (the things celestia is literally confirmed to harvest energy thru to repair its damaged authority) and his connection with the narwhal reaching an actual conscious level (arguably subconscious n emotional too bc i find it Curious his mood is poor right as the narwhal is repeatedly described as positively malding to the point its boss fight mechanic is literally a rage meter). ajax' power is growing. his destiny is starting to shift and something is drawing him to fontaine... right as the narwhal is getting close to finished with the primordial sea. funny how it overlaps eh. how it aligns 🤨🤨 why are they orbiting each other like this (they should kiss)
(& not to even Mention how ajax just Happened to get that absolutely exponential and borderline unbelievable feat of power spike in extending his foul legacy endurance as massively as he did. while. within the primordial sea. with his narwhal. who had at that point all but incorporated the power of that sea into itself. i s2g if childe was getting passive home turf co-op bonus exp with a 4x multiplier automatically the whole 40+ days 💀💀)

if Ur accepting prompts, what if wukong was trying to get Macaque and Azure to stop arguing because Wukong wants to be with them both
Another day, another fight over Sun Wukong.
Of course, DBK mused, watching as his two sworn brothers stand in front of Wukong, fight wasn't a good word for it. Both Macaque and Azure were too refined for a proper fistfight over a man who would quickly shut that down. Instead, it was more like slight jabs that occasionally became a sword when Macaque really got out of his shell.
Yellowtusk was already pulling out the scoreboard.
Today, however, seemed different. Both Macaque and Azure had gifts for the golden monkey, like usual. They were already wounding up into the jabs and swords. However, Wukong looked strangely annoyed.
Was he in the middle of something? Usually, the two reserved to bother him when he wasn't doing anything, which was a lot of the time. However, there were moments like training or tending to his mountain where Wukong was busy.
Maybe...
DBK rose to his feet, ready to call out and suggest that Macaque and Azure give Wukong some space. Before he could speak, there was a loud "Oh, for crying-"
And then he was grabbing Azure's collar and yanking him down.
"Hm," Yellowtusk sighed. "I guess Azure wins." He wrote out a line.
Azure certainly looked like he was winning, based on his sheer look of delight. His gift, a scroll from the village across the bay, dropped to the ground, and his hands rose to grip Wukong tight. Wukong shifted his face, and a quiet moan slipped from one of them.
Macaque, meanwhile, looked like Wukong had yanked out his heart and stomped on it. DBK couldn't help the flare of pity as tears welled up in gold eyes. The monkey turned.
Before he could march away, Wukong pushed away from Azure. "Come here, you idiot," he said, grabbing Macaque's tail and yanking him close. Macaque chirped in surprise as he was turned around. "I want you both, I'm getting you both." And with that, Wukong was yanking Macaque down and into the same passionate kiss he had given Azure.
Yellowtusk and DBK blinked.
"Huh."
"Never mind," DBK glanced back in time to see the elephant erase the scores. Instead, he wrote down WUKONG. One thick line divided the board. "Wukong wins."
