[ One look into Ajax's dark eyes says it all, her man is out for blood and Yoimiya is absolutely here for this. Her beloved will always be the epitome of perfection, there's never a moment where he doesn't shine above everyone else but there's something about the way he throws himself into the heat of battle that is so incredibly alluring. Even if it's just a silly food fight, the chaos that he's about to incite is so terribly exciting that she can't help but squirm in delight at the bit of heat that's growing between her thighs.
But before she gets caught up in her deprave thoughts, she's enamored with Ajax's perfect aim, that loud plap sounded so delightfully painful. Good. It's what that guy deserves. The power of their loving teamwork continues to triumph over anyone who dares to be a nuisance. She sits on her tiptoes to plant a well-deserved kiss on her sweetheart's cheek, still not caring about being so gross in front of all these people.
Tartaglia continues to be the coolest, not even needing to dodge the incoming drumstick. But unfortunately for their opponent, another person is about to get dragged into the fight, and boy does that patron look pissed. And to top it off her sneaky Ajax fans the flames of chaos getting ready to unfold. Yoimiya is positively thriving at the madness that's about to break out. She happily watches the customer yell at the man, grabbing a nearby breadstick to chuck at their sorry excuse for an adversary. All while this is going down, Yoimiya takes this as a chance to lean close to him to whisper into his ear. ]
Mm... hehe. I love that sneaky side of yours.
[ The man with buffalo wing sauce all over his face just barely manages to hit the floor and dodge... only for the breadstick to hit a woman who was enjoying her meal square in the cheek. She rubs the side of her face, looking around to find the culprit. Who the hell did that?! Still seeking vengeance from earlier, Yoimiya happily points at the man who threw the potato at her. ]
He started it. This guy just started throwing food.
[ That person over there threw the breadstick! But unfortunately for him, the woman isn't having any of it as she picks up her plate of pasta and throws it at him... only for another passerby to get hit and pissed. It spirals, one thing leads to another...
And now customers from every corner of the restaurant are throwing food at each other. All the while, Yoimiya is having the time of her life. They should probably just take their food and leave but, she wants to get a piece of the action. And if she knows her boyfriend well enough... ]
Did you want to have a bit of fun before we leave?
[Looks like that whole plan backfired on that rude ass guy. It's satisfying to see that other person chuck the breadstick right at him. He glances down at Yoimiya with a wicked, sly grin on his face. That's not all he's got up his sleeve, if she's enjoying these tiny manipulation tactics he's employing. Yoimiya does the perfect setup by pinning the breadstick culprit on the wrong person...but it doesn't matter. He deserves it, so he's going to sit back and watch that plate of pasta fly right at him- just to accidentally hit someone else.
Too bad it missed, but the chaos is wonderful...time for him to get back in the action here. They can't have all the fun...]
Of course, [he answers, eating a little bit of his own food while ducking under a slice of pizza that sails over his head into the booth behind him, which aggravates those people and they join into the fray.]
Let's make sure that the one who started it all pays the most dearly.
[Staff are rushing into the dining room, trying to get people to stop, while Tartaglia slips out of their seating and grabs some food off the nearest table and sneaks over to their main culprit. It's easy to get behind him, Childe even gives the guy the chance to notice he's there, walking up right in front of him before stepping around.
In a low voice, he whispers:]
Perhaps next time you'll think twice before flinging your food around like a small child.
[BAM in his face goes a plate of fettuccine alfredo that he'd grabbed from someone's table. The plate splatters all over, sauce dripping down the guy's face and onto his clothes, with Tartaglia laughing in a menacing tone the entire time.]
See ya.
[Food continues to fly every which way, and sometimes he gets hit on the way back, but that's fine- it's Yoimiya's turn to get her own revenge, sliding back into his seat at their table and taking a buffalo wing for himself to munch on.]
[ She loves Ajax's way of thinking, the one who threw the first punch deserves to be utterly humiliated. Chaos is strewing all across the room, people are throwing food at each other, the staff are rushing in to try and put a stop to it all but even with everything taking place, Yoimiya's attention is laser-focused on her beloved's plan of attack.
Naturally, it goes without a hitch. The man is a pathetic insect compared to Ajax as he so effortlessly slams a plate full of fettuccine alfredo into his face. Yoimiya joins in on her boyfriend's menacing laughter, taking glee at the dripping sauce mess all over him. If there wasn't so much screaming and shouting going on in the background, their maniacal giggles would surely make any passerby quiver in their boots.
Ajax is so kind to let her have a chance to blow off some steam. Best boyfriend in the universe. ♥ Yoimiya uses the ensuing chaos as a chance to someone's salad off a nearby table. The poor sap can't see thanks to the sauce obscuring his vision that it's so easy for Yoimiya to sneak up behind him and dump the plate full of salad right onto his head. Not only is he covered in alfredo and dressing, the lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and onion is glued to his face and hair. This is what he deserves. ]
Worked out pretty well for us, didn't it?
[ Now that her thirst for vengeance has been satiated, Yoimiya happily trots her way back to her beloved like a prancing kitty with her tail up in the air. She slides back into her seat, taking one of those interesting-looking Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, breaking it into two, giving the other half to her sweetheart for a job well done. ]
Not only do we have dinner, we have a show to go along with it.
[ The show being the food fight that's taking place right before their eyes. Chaos has successfully been sown indeed. ]
[Watching Yoimiya get her revenge for the mashed potatoes to her forehead is satisfying. He can't help but laugh as she dumps that whole bowl of salad on the guy's head. A fitting end to a situation that started with someone not being able to hold their temper in from a few sloppy, public kisses between the two of them. He's still keeping his head down as she returns to the table with him, as food flies left and right past them both. They're not out of the fire yet, and honestly Childe is very tempted to jump back into the fray and take out every single person with his own food-flinging abilities, but he tells himself that he's still on a date with his girlfriend and he promised her he'd put her first before fighting sometimes.
This is one of those instances where he'll honor that promise, taking the cheesesteak and eating a bit of it. They probably won't be able to stay long, as the staff are now wrangling people up even as chaos ensues.]
Yeah, I'd really rather be a part of the show myself, but I think I'd also rather be able to come back to this place. I have, however, rather enjoyed it all. It's proven to be an eventful night indeed.
[Tartaglia isn't going to waste time eating, mowing down his cheesesteak and eating a few more wings before quickly busting his wallet out. He probably isn't going to be able to get a waiter's attention, so he'll just leave money and tip on the table and let the staff work it out. He's not a thief, just a trouble starter...]
Perhaps I should let you pick out where we go from now on. I don't think we would have had nearly as much fun at the other restaurant I'd picked out.
[ Yoimiya knows her boyfriend well enough that he'd like to be in the middle of all that chaos to curb stomp anyone that dares to stand in his way. She'd love to see him thrive in his element but... she can tell he's also holding back for her sake. He's putting her first before engaging in a fight and she appreciates he's coming through with his promise. He's such a wonderful partner, the absolute best. ]
Hehe, you contributed to the thrills as well! We wouldn't have had nearly as much fun if you weren't around. And knowing us, I think we still could have come up with creative ways to have fun at that restaurant.
[ She gives him a small peck on the lips just before taking a bite out of her sandwich. Since Ajax has kindly left the money, Yoimiya takes it upon herself to grab a few to-go boxes to pack up their food. She'll make sure her man eats those churros when they get home.
But first, there is one last thing she'd like to do before they leave. ]
Would you like to get in a quick scrap before we head out?
[ His consideration for her is very much appreciated but Yoimiya still wants him to live his best life. Grinning from ear to ear, she holds up a basket of biscuits left unattended by the waiters. Go get them, honey! She supports you and your endeavors. ]
[When he thinks about it, Yoimiya's probably right. They're both pretty fun people in their own respects, they definitely would of come up with something that would have made their evening eventful no matter where they would have gone. Maybe not ending in a food fight, but he's sure they would of managed. He returns that peck, letting her get the boxes while dodging the lessening food fight that's happening all around them, while he makes sure it's all organized and ready to be packed up.
However...
He's being allowed the chance to have a bit of fun before he goes.]
You know me all too well.
[He takes the basket of biscuits, returning that grin with one that's just as enthusiastic and mischievous, leaving her to get their food together while he enjoys himself for a few more minutes. Thank you Yoimiya, you're the best girlfriend he could of asked for, to let him go out and cause yet more problems and create a ruckus while refining his combat skills.
Sliding out of his seat, he takes his basket of edible chaos bombs, scoping out who looks like they might be a real challenge. He notices one particular person has managed to fend staff off, someone who might even have a worse temper than the original person who'd thrown their potatoes at Yoimiya's forehead. He chucks one of the biscuits right at the guy's head- nailing him with ease- and stands across the room from him with a challenging grin.
Bring it.
It's a battle between the both of them, but his combat expertise prevails overall over the guy- his speed is unrivaled, and when all is said and done, he laughs at the silliness of it all and bails before he can get thrown out. Returning to Yoimiya, he gestures towards the door.]
C'mon, let's go before we have to pay the consequences.
[ Off he goes with his basket of edible chaos bombs in hand! Yoimiya giggles, watching him leave as she packages their remaining food in boxes. He looks like a kid in a candy store about to cause mischief and mayhem. While Tartaglia is throwing himself in the chaos, she gets up to grab them both to-go drinks while dodging food projectiles. Of course, she'll never be able to take her eyes off her strong Ajax. As she's filling up their cups, she glances over to let out a whistle at his perfect aim. Her boyfriend's chosen opponent looks to be the most decent challenge in this whole restaurant but... he's still no match for Ajax, he doesn't even hold a candle to the Harbinger.
With a click, she secures the lids on their cups while moving her head out of the way of an incoming burger. In a blink you might miss it moment, Ajax's fight is over before any of the staff can stop it. The poor guy is left in shambles and crumbs, easy pickings for her battle-crazed beloved. Food and beverages ready, Yoimiya makes her way back over to Ajax. It's about time they exit stage left. ]
Yes, let's roll out before we get in... even more trouble.
[ Still laughing, she takes his hand, sprinting out of there with her prize of food, drinks, and of course, the most handsome man to roam the galaxy. ]
Hahahaha, you were incredible out there! You really showed that guy what for. Pretty sure he never even realized how fast you were moving.
[ She almost feels bad for the poor sap... almost. Ajax will forever reign supreme in her eyes. ]
Maybe you can add biscuits to your arsenal of weapons.
[Ajax makes sure to grab the other drink to help her out, letting Yoimiya lead him by the hand out and running out of there as fast as they can. He only shoots one more glance back to see if they're being followed at all, and enjoying the sight of everyone fighting. Maybe someone out of that bunch will find a fire kindled inside of them that enjoys the thrill of battle. He can only hope- fighting is fun and he'd love to see others enjoy it as much as he does.
As they run down the street and around the corner, they're both finally able to slow down a little bit to catch their breath. Though Childe is pretty good at not getting hit, he did take a little bit of collateral damage, food dusting his left arm and bits of food sticking to or have stained the front of his coat in places. There's definitely some spaghetti sauce trailed down it in places, something he notices and laughs at.]
Hehe, thanks. I think I did pretty good too considering how many opponents we ended up having. Perhaps I'll think about adding biscuits to my vast repertoire, they make surprisingly good projectiles.
[He takes a sip of the drink Yoimiya gracefully took from the restaurant, happy that they'd had such an unexpected blast there.]
Though we didn't get out unscathed...want to go home to enjoy the rest of the food and get changed into something fresh? As much as I've enjoyed getting a good look at you tonight in that dress...
[His hand goes up to trail down her back, letting his fingers slip underneath the strap on her shoulder to underneath the fabric of the dress. She's gorgeous in it, even if there's bits of food on it. In his eyes, there wouldn't be anything that could detract from her beauty, not even a bit of potatoes on her face.]
[ Ah, yes. Yoimiya can picture it in her head. Her gallant Tartaglia with his trusty Polar Star in hand fends off against an army of opponents, he cuts down several peons with his hydro blades, mows down a few stronger foes with his polearm, and finally, when the big bad boss appears... he finishes off with his deadly biscuit bomb attack! Cower in fear, Ellipsa. It paints such a silly image in her mind that she can't stop herself from giggling. She will definitely share this imagination with him once they're home. ]
Sounds like a wonderful way to end the night. We can use a nice relaxing bath after that messy battle we had, haha.
[ Yoimiya is already planning out what bath soak they can use to unwind until her thoughts are cut off by the sensation of Ajax's hand smoothly gliding down her back. A soft, luscious mewl escapes from her lips, the tips of his fingers entice her to lean her back in to soak herself in his touch. Oh how she can't wait to get back home so they can really let loose and engage in even more fun. ]
I've really enjoyed seeing you in that suit as well. Every time I stare at you, I feel like I'm swept off my feet just by looking into your eyes. You look so handsome...
[ She trails off to admire every inch of his gorgeous face, the moonlight shining down on his physique only adds to his splendor. A hand comes up to gently clasp the ruby red jewel for a few short moments until finally moving up to pluck a pasta noodle tucked underneath his white coat. Much better! ]
Even with that little bit of spaghetti stuck to your clothes.
[He can already imagine that she's giggling at the image of him fighting with biscuits in a serious battle. Maybe if they were made of crystal, it might be effective. He's glad she's having fun with the idea of it though. But as she's enjoying his touch, he's already letting his eyes sweep over her, his head filled with ideas now that she's mentioned a nice bath. He'll definitely like that later. ;)
With his mind geared in that direction, he finds himself staring back at her, adoration for Yoimiya filling his chest and blanking the rest of the world out around him. She's so pretty, and he gets ready to lean down to kiss her when...
Oh. She plucks that bit of food off of him, and he laughs as it gets thrown to the ground.]
There's probably more where that came from, [he admits, taking a quick glance over himself to see if he sees anything else at the moment.]
Let's go. I'm especially eager to get home now. I think we've deserved a little...alone time.
[ His poor outfit has seen better days, there are bits of food all over it. But after a quick wash, it will back to pristine like normal and he'll be able to dye it red with the blood of his enemies just like the snow of Snezhnaya. ]
Let's! I've been looking forward to some special alone time with you. [ WINKS ] You deserve a nice reward for not only beating me in a game but also putting that guy who threw food at me in his place.
[ Going back home sounds so appealing to her by the second. She's been dying to spend some time with him alone, away from the prying eyes of everyone else. In her mind, the on-lookers at the restaurant were lucky to even get a glance at her pristine, perfect Ajax. With their newly acquired food and beverages, she happily marches onwards back to Frostreign, excitement flooding all of the corridors of her heart. ]
---
[ Once Ajax steps into their illustrious bathroom, he'll find that the scene has been set for a romantic evening in the bath. The aroma of velvety rose with a hint of raspberry fill the air from the blood-red candles decorating their bathroom. Waiting for him on the rim of the jacuzzi is a bottle of sparkling red wine and two glasses, complete with rose petals elegantly floating on top of the water. Last but not least is Yoimiya, wearing nothing but a translucent robe as she gently dips her hand in to make sure the temperature is nice and cozy. She's all too happy when she notices the man of the hour, shooting him a big, bright smile. ]
Welcome, welcome! I hope the setup is to your liking.
[And he'll happily follow her home, excited for this reward she's talking about, knowing full well what some of it might entail. Of course, he can't let her be so giving without giving back in return...]
---
[She told him she needed some time for their night together in the bathroom. That's fine by him, when the get home, he makes sure to take his suit and hang it up somewhere so he can take it to the cleaners later on. They can get any stains out of it, probably better than he can. But it's not worth worrying about, letting Yoimiya do her thing while he waits.
When he's finally taken care of a few things, he gets ready for the bath, figuring she's probably waiting for him at this point. Clothed only in a towel, he pokes his head in, met immediately with the flowery scent of flowers and raspberry, the hue of the room taken in red due to the candles she's lit all around the bath. She's really pulled the stops out for this, noting the wine and all the petals in the water. It reminds him a bit of Inazuma even if the petals aren't sakura, but the centerpiece and the most important of all is Yoimiya, looking sleek and enticing in that robe. He strides over to her, letting his arm wrap around her middle as he brings her into him, impressed with her entire set up in here and moreso with her.]
A bath romantically lit with candles, charming with a sense of efflorescence that begins with the petals in the water and ends expression of our devotion to each other...I couldn't of asked for better.
[Leaning down, he plants a loving kiss to her lips, before gazing back over the scenery she's set up for them. She really worked hard, he feels so spoiled by her. He's betting she's had this planned for a while now, and he wonders what other surprises she's got in store for him.]
Alright, fess up. How long did you have this whole set up planned for? I'd be surprised if this is all spur of the moment.
[ Goodness, he keeps uping his poetry game. His praise is charming, he's charming... and just like that, a tender warmth sweeps through every neuron in her body, happiness flows through her veins. All she wants is to give him the very best, to worship him like the immaculate god he is. He deserves nothing less, his joy is all she needs to be the happiest woman alive. And of course, Ajax continues to be the best thing that's ever happened to her as he wraps his muscular arms around her, inciting her to evaporate into the tenderness of his embrace. The jacuzzi bath is set to the perfect temperature and yet, she's already heating up from the affectionate kiss, one that she's all too happy to respond in full. ]
Hehehe, looks like I got caught! You're too smart for your own good. I've had this planned for hm... about a month? I wanted to make sure every second of this day is extra special.
[ Spoiling him has become one of her all-time favorite hobbies, Ajax deserves every little bit and more. ]
The wine was a bit of a spur-of-the-moment! I happened to come across it yesterday while I was making preparations. It's got a really unique flavor, a good mixture of sweet and spice that I think you'll enjoy.
[ Speaking of the wine, Yoimiya has a bit of a craving now. Without further delay, she delicately strips herself of the robe to slip into the bath. Ah, the bubbling water feels positively splendid... purchasing a jacuzzi was the best idea ever. The mixture of relaxing bath crystals she applied to the water sends a soothing sensation across her legs and up her spine. She reaches for the wine bottle, popping the cork right off to pour them both a drink. Carbonated bubbles dyed in red float to the rim of the glass, she'll hand one over to him after he gets nice and cozy with her. ]
[It's just as he thought. Yoimiya has always been so caring and considerate of him from the very beginning, and he's not surprised she came up with a stunning idea for a nice relaxing bath at home on their special day. He doesn't hide how impressed he is with the whole set up, excited to try the wine she's picked up, and looking forward to the rest of the night ;)
Tartaglia follows suit, removing his towel and putting somewhere that's in reach for himself before he slides into the tub right next to her, taking the proffered glass so he can clink his with hers.]
Haha, a toast. To our anniversary, our warm and loving relationship, and to all the future adventures we'll have together for the rest of our lives.
[He takes a deep drink from the glass, noting the spice that hits his tongue after the sweet flavor has already gone down with the wine. It's refreshing and unique, setting it on the side of the tub for the time being while he lets himself slip down under the water up to his shoulders to savor how the water feels against his skin. It's a smooth sensation, due to the crystals she's put in the water, and he feels like he could float away at any moment.
He lets his head rest against the back of the tub, closing his eyes as he relaxes.]
Ah, this really does hit the spot right after an exciting battle. Did you enjoy yourself, Yoimiya?
[ Seeing her boyfriend so impressed and happy is all that she needs to have a perfect anniversary. Beaming, she happily clinks her glass right back at him with promises of their loving relationship that will lead them to grand adventures. In sync with him, she also takes a long drink from the glass, the mixture of sweet and spice lavishes her tongue in a cherry-filled symphony. She lets out a sigh laced with satisfaction from the wine, her eyes glance over to the endearing sight of her sweetheart getting nice and cozy in the water. How precious...
So, she hopes he doesn't mind when she sets her glass next to his so they can snuggle up together. Her head falls on top of his chest while her hands tend to his stomach, gently circling her fingers across the lines of his abs. ]
I did! That has to be one of the most unique restaurants I've ever dined at. Not only was the food interesting, the game we got to play was fun! We definitely gotta go back so we can try the rest. Buuuuut next time... I won't lose to you.
[ So yes, she'd love to do it again sometime. ★~(◠‿◕✿) Of course, Yoimiya doesn't forget to finish off her challenge with a sly wink. ]
Oh! And not to mention, I had a blast watching you go toe-to-toe with that one guy. You were so cool out there with your biscuits, hehe. [ That was definitely the highlight of her night. ] Did you have a good time?
[With Yoimiya curled up next to him, he feels like he never would have to get up again, relaxation pouring into his muscles from the warmth of the water and her presence soothing his spirit. He shoots her a cocky grin as he listens to her proclamation- not losing to him, that'll be a challenge and he'll make sure of it- but that cocky smirk fades into something more soft.
Shifting his weight a bit, he slides his arm around her as she lays against him, proud that she thought he looked cool even despite using what's probably the lamest weapon he's ever won a fight with.]
I did. I didn't think that we'd get the chance to cause a little ruckus, but I think it was worth it all in the end. Maybe next time I can think of something even more exciting...something planned maybe, though causing spur-of-the-moment stirs isn't out of the question either.
[Laughing to himself, Tartaglia plants a kiss to the top of Yoimiya's head, cuddling in with her a bit more. Her warmth and the water was making him a little sleepy, but there's more things to do and he can't sleep now.]
I could relax like this the rest of the night. But, I have a feeling you have other plans.
[Alcohol is a favorite to enjoy before other activities follow, and the romantic atmosphere begs for something more. Another kiss is planted to the top of her head, letting his face rest in her hair as he closes his eyes. The best spot to be is right next to her, and he'll enjoy this brief moment of tranquility before the inevitable happens.]
[ As they cuddle up in the water, a chirpy hum slips out of her lips at the prospect of their future endeavors. Since it's Ajax, she knows his chaotic little self has the creative mindset to come up with an exciting spur-of-the-moment outing. Their relationship has been one thrilling adventure right after the other, he's bound to come up with a brilliant way to cause a scene and have fun doing it.
Just like how she knows him well, he's all too familiar with her antics by now. Giggling to herself, Yoimiya melts at the delicate kisses peppered at the top of her head. So sweet and loving... Ajax never fails to make her heart soar. He deserves some love too and she does so by nuzzling her head into his chest so he can indulge in her warmth all he wants. ]
You know me like the back of your hand. If you don't mind, I'd like to go ahead and give you your present.
[ She cranes her head to place a sweet kiss on his chin before reaching over to grab a small object from the nearby sink. Sneakily hidden behind a candle is a red velvet box. She brings it down to him, opening it up to reveal two colorless gemstone rings with silver bands. ]
Happy Anniversary. I bought these special rings for us as a red string that binds... us together forever. There's a spell enchanted into these rings, we first have to add a drop of either our tears or blood, whisper the words "Find our Soul" into the ring, and we'll always be connected. So long as we have these rings on, they will guide us to find one another.
[He wasn't entirely sure what to expect, but his ears perk up a little when she says she has a present for him, watching her as she reveals the hiding place of the box. He hadn't seen it coming in, and he wonders what could possibly be inside of it, eyes widening a little at the two silver rings that lay on a bed of soft velvet, much like the outside of the box itself.
Tartaglia feels two emotions at the same time- one, is how sweet his corrupted mind finds this gift. Being bound to Yoimiya by blood and magic is the kind of thing that makes his heart soar and darkens his obsession with her further. He loves it and he can't wait to perform the ritual to be bound to her forever.
The second emotion he feels is strange...it's a heartfelt panic. Yoimiya had a very similar idea to his own as a gift for their anniversary, which all on its own is sweet and he shouldn't be surprised that they both thought alike here. But on the flip side, he'd gotten her a ring too...and here he was hoping that his gift would be unique. He hopes she'll still like it \(˚☐˚”)/]
Yoimiya, [he practically whispers as he reaches out to gingerly take the box from her,] this was incredibly thoughtful of you...I'm flattered and warmed by this. Thank you.
[Still, despite his mild panic, the thought of being able to be connected to her forever, to have her by his side no matter where they actually were is a thought that consumes his mind. He'd love nothing else than this, and he slips on the ring meant for him. He wonders if the gem would change color after they add their blood to it.]
I'd be honored to bind myself to you. Did you want to do it now?
[ SILLY AJAX! Any gift from him is a priceless treasure. ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡
Oblivious to his internal panic, Yoimiya's heart feels like skipping several beats as she watches him slip the lovely finger onto his ring. The gem budded onto the band still has yet to show its full colors to them, she's still not completely sure how the whole process will go but it will be exciting to see his ring come to light. No matter the color, this little jewel that binds them together will always be beautiful in her eyes since it represents their everlasting love.
Likewise, she holds up her hand for him to see her slide on the ring. She takes a moment to admire it before they do the proper enchantments. ]
I'd love to. We can perform the ritual with either our tears or blood. Do you have a preference?
[ Although Yoimiya is so happy to the point of tears, the corruption that flows through her veins is enthralled with soaking this ring with her blood as a way to show her undying devotion to the man who owns her heart. And since they are in a bath, they don't have to worry about staining the hardwood floor with their blood LOL. ]
[Thinking on it, despite how happy Yoimiya is, he doesn't feel like he'd be able to make himself cry. So blood it'll have to be, the decision made silently as he turns to collect his vision from where he'd set it down next to the tub. Never go anywhere without it (while it's working at least lol)]
A little prick of blood seems like the easiest way to go. I can assist with that.
[The grin on his face is happy, but twisted up with a darkness that acts as a silhouette against his otherwise overjoyed features. Just a tiny bit of blood, and Yoimiya will be his, all his, and he all hers forever and ever and ever...]
Just hold your hand out, I'll prick your finger and my own and we can begin.
[Tartaglia applies a small globule of hydro to one of his own fingers, as a needle seems to push downward quickly out of it, letting blood flow into the water before he dismisses it so make a new one for Yoimiya's finger.]
[ Blood it is! She's more than happy with his choice, thrilled to present her blood as an offering for their eternal love. Her eyes light up as he grabs his vision, harnessing his powers to concoct a small droplet of water to prick his skin. Ah, she can always count on her dearest Tartaglia to use his vision in creative ways. ( while it's working anyhow foreshadowing??? what is that???? )
She's enamored by the wonderous scene of his blood beautifully flowing into the water, his essence is far more stunning than the rose petals she brought for their bath. It's marvelous... that small drop of blood is the magic to keep them tied together in everlasting love, together with Ajax forever and ever and ever. Excitement fills her heart to the brim as she extends her hand out in preparation to give all of herself to him. All he needs is just a drop and she will belong to him. ]
Thank you for doing the honors. I'm ready and... excited to have our hearts bound together for all of eternity.
[ Ajax's love is all she'll ever need to be happy. ]
[The words are uttered low and with a fever that Tartaglia's never shown before. Taking her hand, he repeats the motion of pricking her finger with his power, removing the hydro from her hand so she's free to apply the blood to both of their rings. Pressing his finger to the gem of his own ring, he lets his blood seep into the stone, eyes widening with madness at the sight of it. All it needs is hers now, and then to do the same to her ring...]
No matter the method, if I can bind you to me even further, I'm more than willing to do it. Come, let us complete the ritual.
[Extending his hand forward, he beckons her to place her blood into his ring, and will put his into hers as per the ritual. Ajax's eyes shine with a dark insanity that rises slowly from within him. Only a few more steps and yet another bind on both of their souls will be in place, keeping them chained to one another. The thought excites him, to have Yoimiya further in his grasp, and to be bound to her in turn.
He only needs her, nothing else, and no one can have her either...this is how it should be. Their trust bond that illuminates their souls and this magic ring that keeps them pledged to each other, it's more than he could of asked for, and yet he needs more. To keep her here, in his arms, and to be kept in hers...]
[ Ajax sounds so terribly attractive. His voice is laced with an intense husky pitch that Yoimiya has never heard before but Archons does it send a feverish chill crawling down her spine. This is right where she wants to be, besides him as they partake in a ritual that will bind their souls together in harmonious bliss. She relaxes at the gentle touch of his hand, he works his magic in such a delicate fashion that the prickle to her finger doesn't hurt in the slightest. If anything, her heart feels like bursting with love, unbridled jubilation rises to her senses while watching him color their rings with their blood.
Soon, Ajax will belong to her and her alone. Now she just has to do her part to truly have him all to her greedy self.
Without further delay, Yoimiya draws her hand toward his ring to soak the precious gemstone with her blood. There's a corrupted glazy look in her eyes as she applies her essence to the ring, she's enjoying this way more than expected, bestowing her beloved with her eternal love is truly one of the greatest most fulfilling experiences of her life. After giving him a sufficient amount, she repeats the motion by dripping a few splotches of blood to dye her stone red.
Her honeyed gaze falls back down to the rings, enamored with the beautiful scene of their mixture of blood seeping into the stones to draw out their true colors. Her gemstone transforms into a shade of ultramarine blue as deep as the ocean depths and in the center, little sparks of red glitter within the confines of the jewel. Yoimiya lifts her hand to inspect her newfound treasure from all angles. It's even more stunning than what she imagined it to be. ]
It's beautiful... kind of like fireworks bursting out of the ocean.
[As she applies her blood to his ring, his eyes dilate at the sight of the gem turning to a deep shade of purple, sparkling like the Abyss with red and orange glitter in his. They look like beacons of light in a dark void...and he smiles with satisfaction before inspecting hers. It's not lost on him that both of their things have something from themselves embedded into it.]
Your fireworks and my childhood...all encompassed into our rings. It's sort of poetic when you think about it.
[Lifting his hand, the ring sits close to his mouth so he can whisper into it, the last ingredient before he can make his claim on her. The smile on his face is one of twisted satisfaction, looking directly into her eyes as he whispers:]
Find our soul.
[He can feel something shift within him, something that binds itself to his very soul, wrapping around it and shooting outward to anchor itself to Yoimiya's. Just as their trust bond gives them a sense of where the other is, he can tell that this is similar but works in a slightly different way- which is fine by him. If one method breaks, the other is there to ensure that Yoimiya is attached to him in one way or another. He'll always know where she is, and will cross mountains to find her if she disappears...no matter the reason.
Tartaglia's breath becomes shallow through the process of their souls binding to each other, eyes alight with crazed devotion and obsession. The idea of it all is exhilarating, sending a shockwave through his system that makes him physically shudder, as if a gust of ice cold air had hit him despite being in the warm water. His hand reaches out to cup her face, with a piercing stare that would otherwise unnerve any normal person, wishing that he could see the red thread that keeps them bound to each other.
These gorgeous, honeyed eyes of hers...he gets to keep them in his life for as long as they're here in Ellipsa...and hopefully when they return to Teyvat as well. Determination surges through him to make the latter a reality, the idea of having her forever into other worlds now a diseased seed that takes root in his mind.]
You're all mine now.
[The words are uttered quietly, with a danger in them that suggests that leaving isn't an option. His smile is wicked and his gaze is disconcerting, and yet he feels like Yoimiya won't be phased by any of this, if not elated to see his eternal devotion to her.]
And I, yours. Why don't we celebrate this momentous moment.
[ It's gorgeous, the dark shade of purple peppered with specks of sparkling red and orange truly is a poetic representation of their undying love, their history, and passion encompassed into the perfect ring... Yoimiya is left breathless by the gemstone's transformation. She's so elated with this outcome, taking a few moments to gaze upon their newfound treasure.
But now, it's time to recite the final element to complete the ritual, the final component to make him hers for all of eternity. Warmth surges throughout her body just thinking about it. Yoimiya feels like she's riding the high of her penultimate pleasure as she recites these three simple words while gazing into the mesmerizing eyes of her beloved. ]
Find our soul.
[ As soon as those words part from her lips, Yoimiya senses a stirring within her, a pleasant feeling that envelops her heart and springs forth to chainlink her soul with Ajax. In this moment, she's never felt more complete as their spirits connect with one another. With their trust weapon and now these rings, she's reassured that no matter the distance, they'll always find a way back to each other. She'll be with him forever and ever and ever. Nothing is going to tear them apart, she'll cross boundless galaxies just to be with him, she'll find a way to ensure they will keep their memories upon returning to Teyvat, their will always conquer anything standing in their path. She closes her eyes to soak in this blissful sensation until finally, fluttering her lashes open to meet his stare, revealing her golden eyes clouded with a maddening obsession willing to do anything to keep his love.
She hums at his touch, leaning her head to nuzzle her face into his palm to take in his wonderful scent. Ajax is her's... all her's, she gets the privilege of being with this incredible man forever. To hear him stake his claim on her is the greatest honor, she's filled with bliss to be all his. And as she gets lost in his mesmerizing stare, Yoimiya is not at all disturbed by his devilish smile. If anything, she loves that look on his face that's a beautiful reminder of his everlasting dedication. ]
You belong to me and I have no plans on sharing, hehe.
[ An equally wicked smile curves at the corners of her lips as she makes this declaration. No one is allowed to lay their grubby hands on her precious Ajax, Yoimiya will make certain of that promise. If anyone dares to even look at him the wrong way, they will be sorry. ]
And in return, you own every inch of me. My heart, my soul, my mind, my body... all of it belongs to you and you alone.
[ Needing Ajax like she needs air to breathe, she can't contain herself as she slides on top of his lap. She brings her arms around his shoulders to admire his handsome face and those marvelous blue eyes that have her in a grip. As a bonus, he also gets a little treat in the form of Yoimiya pressing her breasts against his bare chest. ]
How would my love like to celebrate? I'll give you whatever it is your heart desires.
[ She's always happy to spoil her darling Ajax all he wants. ]
no subject
But before she gets caught up in her deprave thoughts, she's enamored with Ajax's perfect aim, that loud plap sounded so delightfully painful. Good. It's what that guy deserves. The power of their loving teamwork continues to triumph over anyone who dares to be a nuisance. She sits on her tiptoes to plant a well-deserved kiss on her sweetheart's cheek, still not caring about being so gross in front of all these people.
Tartaglia continues to be the coolest, not even needing to dodge the incoming drumstick. But unfortunately for their opponent, another person is about to get dragged into the fight, and boy does that patron look pissed. And to top it off her sneaky Ajax fans the flames of chaos getting ready to unfold. Yoimiya is positively thriving at the madness that's about to break out. She happily watches the customer yell at the man, grabbing a nearby breadstick to chuck at their sorry excuse for an adversary. All while this is going down, Yoimiya takes this as a chance to lean close to him to whisper into his ear. ]
Mm... hehe. I love that sneaky side of yours.
[ The man with buffalo wing sauce all over his face just barely manages to hit the floor and dodge... only for the breadstick to hit a woman who was enjoying her meal square in the cheek. She rubs the side of her face, looking around to find the culprit. Who the hell did that?! Still seeking vengeance from earlier, Yoimiya happily points at the man who threw the potato at her. ]
He started it. This guy just started throwing food.
[ That person over there threw the breadstick! But unfortunately for him, the woman isn't having any of it as she picks up her plate of pasta and throws it at him... only for another passerby to get hit and pissed. It spirals, one thing leads to another...
And now customers from every corner of the restaurant are throwing food at each other. All the while, Yoimiya is having the time of her life. They should probably just take their food and leave but, she wants to get a piece of the action. And if she knows her boyfriend well enough... ]
Did you want to have a bit of fun before we leave?
no subject
Too bad it missed, but the chaos is wonderful...time for him to get back in the action here. They can't have all the fun...]
Of course, [he answers, eating a little bit of his own food while ducking under a slice of pizza that sails over his head into the booth behind him, which aggravates those people and they join into the fray.]
Let's make sure that the one who started it all pays the most dearly.
[Staff are rushing into the dining room, trying to get people to stop, while Tartaglia slips out of their seating and grabs some food off the nearest table and sneaks over to their main culprit. It's easy to get behind him, Childe even gives the guy the chance to notice he's there, walking up right in front of him before stepping around.
In a low voice, he whispers:]
Perhaps next time you'll think twice before flinging your food around like a small child.
[BAM in his face goes a plate of fettuccine alfredo that he'd grabbed from someone's table. The plate splatters all over, sauce dripping down the guy's face and onto his clothes, with Tartaglia laughing in a menacing tone the entire time.]
See ya.
[Food continues to fly every which way, and sometimes he gets hit on the way back, but that's fine- it's Yoimiya's turn to get her own revenge, sliding back into his seat at their table and taking a buffalo wing for himself to munch on.]
no subject
Naturally, it goes without a hitch. The man is a pathetic insect compared to Ajax as he so effortlessly slams a plate full of fettuccine alfredo into his face. Yoimiya joins in on her boyfriend's menacing laughter, taking glee at the dripping sauce mess all over him. If there wasn't so much screaming and shouting going on in the background, their maniacal giggles would surely make any passerby quiver in their boots.
Ajax is so kind to let her have a chance to blow off some steam. Best boyfriend in the universe. ♥ Yoimiya uses the ensuing chaos as a chance to someone's salad off a nearby table. The poor sap can't see thanks to the sauce obscuring his vision that it's so easy for Yoimiya to sneak up behind him and dump the plate full of salad right onto his head. Not only is he covered in alfredo and dressing, the lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and onion is glued to his face and hair. This is what he deserves. ]
Worked out pretty well for us, didn't it?
[ Now that her thirst for vengeance has been satiated, Yoimiya happily trots her way back to her beloved like a prancing kitty with her tail up in the air. She slides back into her seat, taking one of those interesting-looking Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, breaking it into two, giving the other half to her sweetheart for a job well done. ]
Not only do we have dinner, we have a show to go along with it.
[ The show being the food fight that's taking place right before their eyes. Chaos has successfully been sown indeed. ]
no subject
This is one of those instances where he'll honor that promise, taking the cheesesteak and eating a bit of it. They probably won't be able to stay long, as the staff are now wrangling people up even as chaos ensues.]
Yeah, I'd really rather be a part of the show myself, but I think I'd also rather be able to come back to this place. I have, however, rather enjoyed it all. It's proven to be an eventful night indeed.
[Tartaglia isn't going to waste time eating, mowing down his cheesesteak and eating a few more wings before quickly busting his wallet out. He probably isn't going to be able to get a waiter's attention, so he'll just leave money and tip on the table and let the staff work it out. He's not a thief, just a trouble starter...]
Perhaps I should let you pick out where we go from now on. I don't think we would have had nearly as much fun at the other restaurant I'd picked out.
no subject
Hehe, you contributed to the thrills as well! We wouldn't have had nearly as much fun if you weren't around. And knowing us, I think we still could have come up with creative ways to have fun at that restaurant.
[ She gives him a small peck on the lips just before taking a bite out of her sandwich. Since Ajax has kindly left the money, Yoimiya takes it upon herself to grab a few to-go boxes to pack up their food. She'll make sure her man eats those churros when they get home.
But first, there is one last thing she'd like to do before they leave. ]
Would you like to get in a quick scrap before we head out?
[ His consideration for her is very much appreciated but Yoimiya still wants him to live his best life. Grinning from ear to ear, she holds up a basket of biscuits left unattended by the waiters. Go get them, honey! She supports you and your endeavors. ]
no subject
However...
He's being allowed the chance to have a bit of fun before he goes.]
You know me all too well.
[He takes the basket of biscuits, returning that grin with one that's just as enthusiastic and mischievous, leaving her to get their food together while he enjoys himself for a few more minutes. Thank you Yoimiya, you're the best girlfriend he could of asked for, to let him go out and cause yet more problems and create a ruckus while refining his combat skills.
Sliding out of his seat, he takes his basket of edible chaos bombs, scoping out who looks like they might be a real challenge. He notices one particular person has managed to fend staff off, someone who might even have a worse temper than the original person who'd thrown their potatoes at Yoimiya's forehead. He chucks one of the biscuits right at the guy's head- nailing him with ease- and stands across the room from him with a challenging grin.
Bring it.
It's a battle between the both of them, but his combat expertise prevails overall over the guy- his speed is unrivaled, and when all is said and done, he laughs at the silliness of it all and bails before he can get thrown out. Returning to Yoimiya, he gestures towards the door.]
C'mon, let's go before we have to pay the consequences.
no subject
With a click, she secures the lids on their cups while moving her head out of the way of an incoming burger. In a blink you might miss it moment, Ajax's fight is over before any of the staff can stop it. The poor guy is left in shambles and crumbs, easy pickings for her battle-crazed beloved. Food and beverages ready, Yoimiya makes her way back over to Ajax. It's about time they exit stage left. ]
Yes, let's roll out before we get in... even more trouble.
[ Still laughing, she takes his hand, sprinting out of there with her prize of food, drinks, and of course, the most handsome man to roam the galaxy. ]
Hahahaha, you were incredible out there! You really showed that guy what for. Pretty sure he never even realized how fast you were moving.
[ She almost feels bad for the poor sap... almost. Ajax will forever reign supreme in her eyes. ]
Maybe you can add biscuits to your arsenal of weapons.
no subject
As they run down the street and around the corner, they're both finally able to slow down a little bit to catch their breath. Though Childe is pretty good at not getting hit, he did take a little bit of collateral damage, food dusting his left arm and bits of food sticking to or have stained the front of his coat in places. There's definitely some spaghetti sauce trailed down it in places, something he notices and laughs at.]
Hehe, thanks. I think I did pretty good too considering how many opponents we ended up having. Perhaps I'll think about adding biscuits to my vast repertoire, they make surprisingly good projectiles.
[He takes a sip of the drink Yoimiya gracefully took from the restaurant, happy that they'd had such an unexpected blast there.]
Though we didn't get out unscathed...want to go home to enjoy the rest of the food and get changed into something fresh? As much as I've enjoyed getting a good look at you tonight in that dress...
[His hand goes up to trail down her back, letting his fingers slip underneath the strap on her shoulder to underneath the fabric of the dress. She's gorgeous in it, even if there's bits of food on it. In his eyes, there wouldn't be anything that could detract from her beauty, not even a bit of potatoes on her face.]
no subject
Sounds like a wonderful way to end the night. We can use a nice relaxing bath after that messy battle we had, haha.
[ Yoimiya is already planning out what bath soak they can use to unwind until her thoughts are cut off by the sensation of Ajax's hand smoothly gliding down her back. A soft, luscious mewl escapes from her lips, the tips of his fingers entice her to lean her back in to soak herself in his touch. Oh how she can't wait to get back home so they can really let loose and engage in even more fun. ]
I've really enjoyed seeing you in that suit as well. Every time I stare at you, I feel like I'm swept off my feet just by looking into your eyes. You look so handsome...
[ She trails off to admire every inch of his gorgeous face, the moonlight shining down on his physique only adds to his splendor. A hand comes up to gently clasp the ruby red jewel for a few short moments until finally moving up to pluck a pasta noodle tucked underneath his white coat. Much better! ]
Even with that little bit of spaghetti stuck to your clothes.
no subject
With his mind geared in that direction, he finds himself staring back at her, adoration for Yoimiya filling his chest and blanking the rest of the world out around him. She's so pretty, and he gets ready to lean down to kiss her when...
Oh. She plucks that bit of food off of him, and he laughs as it gets thrown to the ground.]
There's probably more where that came from, [he admits, taking a quick glance over himself to see if he sees anything else at the moment.]
Let's go. I'm especially eager to get home now. I think we've deserved a little...alone time.
no subject
Let's! I've been looking forward to some special alone time with you. [ WINKS ] You deserve a nice reward for not only beating me in a game but also putting that guy who threw food at me in his place.
[ Going back home sounds so appealing to her by the second. She's been dying to spend some time with him alone, away from the prying eyes of everyone else. In her mind, the on-lookers at the restaurant were lucky to even get a glance at her pristine, perfect Ajax. With their newly acquired food and beverages, she happily marches onwards back to Frostreign, excitement flooding all of the corridors of her heart. ]
---
[ Once Ajax steps into their illustrious bathroom, he'll find that the scene has been set for a romantic evening in the bath. The aroma of velvety rose with a hint of raspberry fill the air from the blood-red candles decorating their bathroom. Waiting for him on the rim of the jacuzzi is a bottle of sparkling red wine and two glasses, complete with rose petals elegantly floating on top of the water. Last but not least is Yoimiya, wearing nothing but a translucent robe as she gently dips her hand in to make sure the temperature is nice and cozy. She's all too happy when she notices the man of the hour, shooting him a big, bright smile. ]
Welcome, welcome! I hope the setup is to your liking.
no subject
---
[She told him she needed some time for their night together in the bathroom. That's fine by him, when the get home, he makes sure to take his suit and hang it up somewhere so he can take it to the cleaners later on. They can get any stains out of it, probably better than he can. But it's not worth worrying about, letting Yoimiya do her thing while he waits.
When he's finally taken care of a few things, he gets ready for the bath, figuring she's probably waiting for him at this point. Clothed only in a towel, he pokes his head in, met immediately with the flowery scent of flowers and raspberry, the hue of the room taken in red due to the candles she's lit all around the bath. She's really pulled the stops out for this, noting the wine and all the petals in the water. It reminds him a bit of Inazuma even if the petals aren't sakura, but the centerpiece and the most important of all is Yoimiya, looking sleek and enticing in that robe. He strides over to her, letting his arm wrap around her middle as he brings her into him, impressed with her entire set up in here and moreso with her.]
A bath romantically lit with candles, charming with a sense of efflorescence that begins with the petals in the water and ends expression of our devotion to each other...I couldn't of asked for better.
[Leaning down, he plants a loving kiss to her lips, before gazing back over the scenery she's set up for them. She really worked hard, he feels so spoiled by her. He's betting she's had this planned for a while now, and he wonders what other surprises she's got in store for him.]
Alright, fess up. How long did you have this whole set up planned for? I'd be surprised if this is all spur of the moment.
no subject
Hehehe, looks like I got caught! You're too smart for your own good. I've had this planned for hm... about a month? I wanted to make sure every second of this day is extra special.
[ Spoiling him has become one of her all-time favorite hobbies, Ajax deserves every little bit and more. ]
The wine was a bit of a spur-of-the-moment! I happened to come across it yesterday while I was making preparations. It's got a really unique flavor, a good mixture of sweet and spice that I think you'll enjoy.
[ Speaking of the wine, Yoimiya has a bit of a craving now. Without further delay, she delicately strips herself of the robe to slip into the bath. Ah, the bubbling water feels positively splendid... purchasing a jacuzzi was the best idea ever. The mixture of relaxing bath crystals she applied to the water sends a soothing sensation across her legs and up her spine. She reaches for the wine bottle, popping the cork right off to pour them both a drink. Carbonated bubbles dyed in red float to the rim of the glass, she'll hand one over to him after he gets nice and cozy with her. ]
Shall we? A toast to our anniversary!
no subject
Tartaglia follows suit, removing his towel and putting somewhere that's in reach for himself before he slides into the tub right next to her, taking the proffered glass so he can clink his with hers.]
Haha, a toast. To our anniversary, our warm and loving relationship, and to all the future adventures we'll have together for the rest of our lives.
[He takes a deep drink from the glass, noting the spice that hits his tongue after the sweet flavor has already gone down with the wine. It's refreshing and unique, setting it on the side of the tub for the time being while he lets himself slip down under the water up to his shoulders to savor how the water feels against his skin. It's a smooth sensation, due to the crystals she's put in the water, and he feels like he could float away at any moment.
He lets his head rest against the back of the tub, closing his eyes as he relaxes.]
Ah, this really does hit the spot right after an exciting battle. Did you enjoy yourself, Yoimiya?
[Wanna do it again sometime? ^^]
no subject
So, she hopes he doesn't mind when she sets her glass next to his so they can snuggle up together. Her head falls on top of his chest while her hands tend to his stomach, gently circling her fingers across the lines of his abs. ]
I did! That has to be one of the most unique restaurants I've ever dined at. Not only was the food interesting, the game we got to play was fun! We definitely gotta go back so we can try the rest. Buuuuut next time... I won't lose to you.
[ So yes, she'd love to do it again sometime. ★~(◠‿◕✿) Of course, Yoimiya doesn't forget to finish off her challenge with a sly wink. ]
Oh! And not to mention, I had a blast watching you go toe-to-toe with that one guy. You were so cool out there with your biscuits, hehe. [ That was definitely the highlight of her night. ] Did you have a good time?
no subject
Shifting his weight a bit, he slides his arm around her as she lays against him, proud that she thought he looked cool even despite using what's probably the lamest weapon he's ever won a fight with.]
I did. I didn't think that we'd get the chance to cause a little ruckus, but I think it was worth it all in the end. Maybe next time I can think of something even more exciting...something planned maybe, though causing spur-of-the-moment stirs isn't out of the question either.
[Laughing to himself, Tartaglia plants a kiss to the top of Yoimiya's head, cuddling in with her a bit more. Her warmth and the water was making him a little sleepy, but there's more things to do and he can't sleep now.]
I could relax like this the rest of the night. But, I have a feeling you have other plans.
[Alcohol is a favorite to enjoy before other activities follow, and the romantic atmosphere begs for something more. Another kiss is planted to the top of her head, letting his face rest in her hair as he closes his eyes. The best spot to be is right next to her, and he'll enjoy this brief moment of tranquility before the inevitable happens.]
no subject
Just like how she knows him well, he's all too familiar with her antics by now. Giggling to herself, Yoimiya melts at the delicate kisses peppered at the top of her head. So sweet and loving... Ajax never fails to make her heart soar. He deserves some love too and she does so by nuzzling her head into his chest so he can indulge in her warmth all he wants. ]
You know me like the back of your hand. If you don't mind, I'd like to go ahead and give you your present.
[ She cranes her head to place a sweet kiss on his chin before reaching over to grab a small object from the nearby sink. Sneakily hidden behind a candle is a red velvet box. She brings it down to him, opening it up to reveal two colorless gemstone rings with silver bands. ]
Happy Anniversary. I bought these special rings for us as a red string that binds... us together forever. There's a spell enchanted into these rings, we first have to add a drop of either our tears or blood, whisper the words "Find our Soul" into the ring, and we'll always be connected. So long as we have these rings on, they will guide us to find one another.
no subject
Tartaglia feels two emotions at the same time- one, is how sweet his corrupted mind finds this gift. Being bound to Yoimiya by blood and magic is the kind of thing that makes his heart soar and darkens his obsession with her further. He loves it and he can't wait to perform the ritual to be bound to her forever.
The second emotion he feels is strange...it's a heartfelt panic. Yoimiya had a very similar idea to his own as a gift for their anniversary, which all on its own is sweet and he shouldn't be surprised that they both thought alike here. But on the flip side, he'd gotten her a ring too...and here he was hoping that his gift would be unique. He hopes she'll still like it \(˚☐˚”)/]
Yoimiya, [he practically whispers as he reaches out to gingerly take the box from her,] this was incredibly thoughtful of you...I'm flattered and warmed by this. Thank you.
[Still, despite his mild panic, the thought of being able to be connected to her forever, to have her by his side no matter where they actually were is a thought that consumes his mind. He'd love nothing else than this, and he slips on the ring meant for him. He wonders if the gem would change color after they add their blood to it.]
I'd be honored to bind myself to you. Did you want to do it now?
no subject
Oblivious to his internal panic, Yoimiya's heart feels like skipping several beats as she watches him slip the lovely finger onto his ring. The gem budded onto the band still has yet to show its full colors to them, she's still not completely sure how the whole process will go but it will be exciting to see his ring come to light. No matter the color, this little jewel that binds them together will always be beautiful in her eyes since it represents their everlasting love.
Likewise, she holds up her hand for him to see her slide on the ring. She takes a moment to admire it before they do the proper enchantments. ]
I'd love to. We can perform the ritual with either our tears or blood. Do you have a preference?
[ Although Yoimiya is so happy to the point of tears, the corruption that flows through her veins is enthralled with soaking this ring with her blood as a way to show her undying devotion to the man who owns her heart. And since they are in a bath, they don't have to worry about staining the hardwood floor with their blood LOL. ]
no subject
A little prick of blood seems like the easiest way to go. I can assist with that.
[The grin on his face is happy, but twisted up with a darkness that acts as a silhouette against his otherwise overjoyed features. Just a tiny bit of blood, and Yoimiya will be his, all his, and he all hers forever and ever and ever...]
Just hold your hand out, I'll prick your finger and my own and we can begin.
[Tartaglia applies a small globule of hydro to one of his own fingers, as a needle seems to push downward quickly out of it, letting blood flow into the water before he dismisses it so make a new one for Yoimiya's finger.]
no subject
foreshadowing??? what is that????)She's enamored by the wonderous scene of his blood beautifully flowing into the water, his essence is far more stunning than the rose petals she brought for their bath. It's marvelous... that small drop of blood is the magic to keep them tied together in everlasting love, together with Ajax forever and ever and ever. Excitement fills her heart to the brim as she extends her hand out in preparation to give all of herself to him. All he needs is just a drop and she will belong to him. ]
Thank you for doing the honors. I'm ready and... excited to have our hearts bound together for all of eternity.
[ Ajax's love is all she'll ever need to be happy. ]
no subject
[The words are uttered low and with a fever that Tartaglia's never shown before. Taking her hand, he repeats the motion of pricking her finger with his power, removing the hydro from her hand so she's free to apply the blood to both of their rings. Pressing his finger to the gem of his own ring, he lets his blood seep into the stone, eyes widening with madness at the sight of it. All it needs is hers now, and then to do the same to her ring...]
No matter the method, if I can bind you to me even further, I'm more than willing to do it. Come, let us complete the ritual.
[Extending his hand forward, he beckons her to place her blood into his ring, and will put his into hers as per the ritual. Ajax's eyes shine with a dark insanity that rises slowly from within him. Only a few more steps and yet another bind on both of their souls will be in place, keeping them chained to one another. The thought excites him, to have Yoimiya further in his grasp, and to be bound to her in turn.
He only needs her, nothing else, and no one can have her either...this is how it should be. Their trust bond that illuminates their souls and this magic ring that keeps them pledged to each other, it's more than he could of asked for, and yet he needs more. To keep her here, in his arms, and to be kept in hers...]
no subject
Soon, Ajax will belong to her and her alone. Now she just has to do her part to truly have him all to her greedy self.
Without further delay, Yoimiya draws her hand toward his ring to soak the precious gemstone with her blood. There's a corrupted glazy look in her eyes as she applies her essence to the ring, she's enjoying this way more than expected, bestowing her beloved with her eternal love is truly one of the greatest most fulfilling experiences of her life. After giving him a sufficient amount, she repeats the motion by dripping a few splotches of blood to dye her stone red.
Her honeyed gaze falls back down to the rings, enamored with the beautiful scene of their mixture of blood seeping into the stones to draw out their true colors. Her gemstone transforms into a shade of ultramarine blue as deep as the ocean depths and in the center, little sparks of red glitter within the confines of the jewel. Yoimiya lifts her hand to inspect her newfound treasure from all angles. It's even more stunning than what she imagined it to be. ]
It's beautiful... kind of like fireworks bursting out of the ocean.

Your fireworks and my childhood...all encompassed into our rings. It's sort of poetic when you think about it.
[Lifting his hand, the ring sits close to his mouth so he can whisper into it, the last ingredient before he can make his claim on her. The smile on his face is one of twisted satisfaction, looking directly into her eyes as he whispers:]
Find our soul.
[He can feel something shift within him, something that binds itself to his very soul, wrapping around it and shooting outward to anchor itself to Yoimiya's. Just as their trust bond gives them a sense of where the other is, he can tell that this is similar but works in a slightly different way- which is fine by him. If one method breaks, the other is there to ensure that Yoimiya is attached to him in one way or another. He'll always know where she is, and will cross mountains to find her if she disappears...no matter the reason.
Tartaglia's breath becomes shallow through the process of their souls binding to each other, eyes alight with crazed devotion and obsession. The idea of it all is exhilarating, sending a shockwave through his system that makes him physically shudder, as if a gust of ice cold air had hit him despite being in the warm water. His hand reaches out to cup her face, with a piercing stare that would otherwise unnerve any normal person, wishing that he could see the red thread that keeps them bound to each other.
These gorgeous, honeyed eyes of hers...he gets to keep them in his life for as long as they're here in Ellipsa...and hopefully when they return to Teyvat as well. Determination surges through him to make the latter a reality, the idea of having her forever into other worlds now a diseased seed that takes root in his mind.]
You're all mine now.
[The words are uttered quietly, with a danger in them that suggests that leaving isn't an option. His smile is wicked and his gaze is disconcerting, and yet he feels like Yoimiya won't be phased by any of this, if not elated to see his eternal devotion to her.]
And I, yours. Why don't we celebrate this momentous moment.
no subject
But now, it's time to recite the final element to complete the ritual, the final component to make him hers for all of eternity. Warmth surges throughout her body just thinking about it. Yoimiya feels like she's riding the high of her penultimate pleasure as she recites these three simple words while gazing into the mesmerizing eyes of her beloved. ]
Find our soul.
[ As soon as those words part from her lips, Yoimiya senses a stirring within her, a pleasant feeling that envelops her heart and springs forth to chainlink her soul with Ajax. In this moment, she's never felt more complete as their spirits connect with one another. With their trust weapon and now these rings, she's reassured that no matter the distance, they'll always find a way back to each other. She'll be with him forever and ever and ever. Nothing is going to tear them apart, she'll cross boundless galaxies just to be with him, she'll find a way to ensure they will keep their memories upon returning to Teyvat, their will always conquer anything standing in their path. She closes her eyes to soak in this blissful sensation until finally, fluttering her lashes open to meet his stare, revealing her golden eyes clouded with a maddening obsession willing to do anything to keep his love.
She hums at his touch, leaning her head to nuzzle her face into his palm to take in his wonderful scent. Ajax is her's... all her's, she gets the privilege of being with this incredible man forever. To hear him stake his claim on her is the greatest honor, she's filled with bliss to be all his. And as she gets lost in his mesmerizing stare, Yoimiya is not at all disturbed by his devilish smile. If anything, she loves that look on his face that's a beautiful reminder of his everlasting dedication. ]
You belong to me and I have no plans on sharing, hehe.
[ An equally wicked smile curves at the corners of her lips as she makes this declaration. No one is allowed to lay their grubby hands on her precious Ajax, Yoimiya will make certain of that promise. If anyone dares to even look at him the wrong way, they will be sorry. ]
And in return, you own every inch of me. My heart, my soul, my mind, my body... all of it belongs to you and you alone.
[ Needing Ajax like she needs air to breathe, she can't contain herself as she slides on top of his lap. She brings her arms around his shoulders to admire his handsome face and those marvelous blue eyes that have her in a grip. As a bonus, he also gets a little treat in the form of Yoimiya pressing her breasts against his bare chest. ]
How would my love like to celebrate? I'll give you whatever it is your heart desires.
[ She's always happy to spoil her darling Ajax all he wants. ]
