“why are you asking about something that doesn’t matter...?”

[shinageha]

Abyss Prince aka Aether gone badddd

[abyssprnce]

@exaeriss​ asked:  “…but I like it when you’re a soft dork.”

He simply stares. Stares some more. 

Raises his sword slowly, “ Is this a joke, or ? “ 

[abyssprnce]

@ablutiio​ asked:  "Thank you for being gentle."

“ What else should I be ? “ He replies, glancing up to the other with a raised eyebrow. He tightens the gauze, making sure the damage to the other’s arm was contained. Glancing around for something to cut off the excess, he fails and sighs. Gripping it with his teeth, the sharp sound escapes and fills the room. 

“ There. You should be good for now. “ 

[abyssprnce]

@derreisende​ asked:  “Door’s locked, lights are off… snacks are here, what’s next?”

" Well, picking the board game I suppose ! “ He gestures to the almost comedic stack of random assorted games. It ranged from funny and quick games to long dark thinking ones. Anything they could think of was trapped here. 

“ You wanna pick the first one ? “ Another cross of his arms, seeming at a loss to what to pick. 

[abyssprnce]

@ventumusica​ asked:  Sooooooo he heard you used to have wings. he kinda wanna see them. mind sharing with the crowd a sneak-peak? pretty please? sparkly eyes;;

Aether watches the other’s excited look upon learning of his wings, hand moving to cover his mouth to stiffle the chuckles that escape him. 

“ You’re so excited about wings ? They’re far from pretty as yours, you know. Not really even biological. “ Aether contemplates the request, but ultimately doesn’t seen any harm in it. The familiar power washes over him as the sheathes of the wings escape him in a gentle light. Floating there, they wings unravel from each one. 

Finally being released, they flutter a bit. 

“ See, not really as natural looking as yours. “ 

[abyssprnce]

@esstellaria​ asked:  “Don’t you dare. No, no puppy face of yours is gonna work…” (lumine)

" Oh, cmon ! It couldn’t hurt ! “ He leans back against the tree, reaching his hands outward as if to grip the blue of the sky into his arms. 

“ Pleaaaaase. The food looked so good, Lumi ! What if we just step into the city just for a single bite of their food, cmoooon ! “

[abyssprnce]

ANONYMOUS SAID:  would the Abyss want to harness Durin's power?

I honestly think that it may be a goal in the future. However, Durin is decomposed so using him directly would definitely be an issue. If the Abyss  uses his heart though, may cause issue if they hold it as a powersource for their mechanized god.

derreisende​:

She only allowed herself to pull away..just enough to rest her forehead onto his. Lumine had to chortle at the teasing tone of her brother; playing with the tip of his braid as she shut her eyes. She pulled away properly and gave his nose a little boop.

“Normally it might be. Buuut, we’re not really looking to make an ally out of the two i’ve encountered. And if anyone sees me with you? Well, I’m just doing my best to get my brother back, aren’t i?” 

Her laugh earns one of his own, watching the other quietly before the poke to his nose has him jolting, hand moving to cover it with a huff. 

“ I suppose not. Of course, the Fatui also has no reason to share the information about us if the other’s ask them about us. If we can get them to agree to our terms, then maybe this could be easier than we are making it. “ 

A contemplative glance to the side, though he grins at the last statement. 

“ And I can always fake getting brought back. Only you and Dain know that I’m technically with the Abyss. “

empticius​:

it  seemed  a  loaded  statement  to  be  made  about  a  recently  deceased  god.  in  liyue  of  all  places,  where  common  respect  and  reverence  brought  people  closer  in  their  picture  of  rex  lapis  almost  more  so  than  the  mondstadt  faith  in  the  anemo  archon  did,  implying  that  the  death  of  a  beloved  god  brought  people  closer  might  easily  have  dire  consequences.  most  inhabitants  of  liyue  were  kind,  or  so  morax  found,  but  they  defended  their  home  fiercely.

❝  you  chose  an  interesting  time  to  visit,  ❞  he  remarked,  kind  as  ever,  and  polite  as  always.  there  was  truth  in  it,  despite  his  suspicions  rendering  him  somewhat  wary.  liyue  was  at  a  turning  point,  and  the  age  of  men  was  filled  with  possibilities  and  unpredictable  turns.  his  part  in  it  had  ended,  largely.  ❝  alas,  it  is  fortunate  that  you  avoided  the  happenstances  themselves.  needless  to  say,  it  was  quite  the  shocking  experience  for  tourists  of  all  people.  ❞

A loaded statement, perhaps. However, Aether could easily play the curious, a little gullible traveler. Eyes watch the other curiously, faux concern echoing across his features about the damage to the city. 

A laugh escapes him at the statement, “ I suppose so ! However, that lets me help wherever I can, I guess. “ A shrug, watching a few other’s pass by. Honestly, he would have liked to see Osial in action, yet the Fatui seemed to ruin that chance. A huff, of course they had to make his job that much harder. 

Fingers settle at his chin, contemplating. 

“ I’ve actually never heard much about this god that attacked. Do we know why he decided now ? “ Another fake question, a poke to see how much the other truly knew.

tsuuhime​:

         🌸🌸🌸

     🌸- She quickly hid behind the stranger, her heart fluttering in her chest like a tiny bird. When the monster was gone, she sighed loudly. Tsuu let out a small sob, as tears filled her eyes. “I-I’m sorry… I wasn’t p-paying attention… I-I think I walked into its nest.” She explains as she tries to calm herself down. It was sad that the creature died but soon she slowly looked up at the one who saved her. “U-Um.. thank you.. for saving me.”

A breath, before he turns back toward the other. She definitely seemed nervous. 

“ Don’t worry, don’t worry. They’re really territorial. You’re alright now. “ Gently gripping her shoulder in an attempt to keep the other steady. A tilt of his head, and he slows his own breath in order to assist her in calming herself. 

“ Don’t worry. I’m glad to see you’re alright. Are you not ... familiar with this area ? Slimes are rather heavy around this place. “ 

He sheathes his sword, a worried furrow of his eyebrow. 

[abyssprnce]

  “Don’t give me that as an excuse, Aether.” And while her words sounded rather hostile, the tone of them was simply sad and tired.

  All of this searching, and for what? There was no reason for her to have gotten involved in literally everything this world had to offer to search for scraps of information (so many leads that went no where. so many questions left unanswered) about her brother- When the Abyss was around every corner, he had to have known.

 She was ecstatic that Aether was fine (not sure of which definition of fine, but he was alive, and she grasped that fact as if her own life depended on it). But, she still had to find him- When he could’ve found her.

  “... Why did it take so long to find you? I know I’ve been causing trouble for the Abyss Order for awhile- One of the mages must’ve told you-”  /  @reuniited​

————————————————————————

A breath. It seemed every explanation that he tried to give was simply written of as an excuse. Part of him just wished to stop trying. Eyes narrow, almost as if frustration and even a small sort of hurt seemed to flare up in him. 

“ You say that as someone who didn’t go through it. You’ve been searching for a year, I’ve been searching for almost a century. Lumine, I thought you were dead. Do you know know how much it hurt for me to just resist coming to you as soon as I saw you ? But you were with Dain. “ A huff, arms folding tightly. 

Hands shake and he places them at his side. A trait that had seemed to persist. Something that indicates that he was nervous, frustrated. 

“ ... Listen, I just ... I ... “ A breath, and Aether is glancing back toward Lumine. 

“ ... I only found out you were alive when you were at the ruins of Old Mondstadt. “ Aether brushes his hair out of his face, “ I didn’t ... I wanted to ... “ He bites his lip. It was difficult trying to share his vision, share what he saw.

papilioo​:

this  boy  kept  getting  stranger  &  stranger  …  now  laughing  at  jokes  most  would  say  are  out  of  place  &  offensive.  unsure  of  what  to  think  ,  but  knowing  how  she  felt  at  least.  excited  !  finally  a  friend  that  didn’t  find  any  of  her  habits  strange  -  despite  how  odd  they  were.  a  laugh  at  his  joke  ,  hand  covering  her  mouth  as  giggles  poured  from  plump  lips.  not  only  did  he  like  her  jokes  ,  but  he  was  just  as  funny  !  the  jackpot  !  yet  her  gut  screamed  not  to  trust  him  …  why  ?  what  was  he  hiding  ?

“  no  matter  the  client  we  have  fantastic  interior  …  in  the  coffins  &  in  the  parlor  !   the  comfier  the  coffin  ,  the  happier  the  spirit.  i’ll  even  let  you  try  it  out  ,  i  sometimes  sleep  in  them  on  break.  ”  was  she  joking  with  that  comment  ,  unknown.  not  many  people  found  coffin’s  as  comfortable  as  she  did.

Eyes glance around at the area, curiosity holding most of his features. Turning back to her, a smile decorating his features when she seemed to laugh at the joke. He’d register that as a win. 

“ Oh ? I’ll take that as a good sign. Especially given how dark they can be. One may sleep and never wake up. “ Another gentle laughter, fingers covering his mouth. 

He sweeps back and forth, actually enjoying the image of the furniture and the comfy places to seat. Somewhere to sit literaly everywhere you could look. 

Gosh, he was tired — those coffins are actually sounding even more inticing.

Why do you hurt?

you swallow pain & fold around it.

you have always hurt. you hold it carefully, and twisted in such a way that other people don't have to see it. you don't choke on it. you don't drown. you just have it, the way some people have freckles, this is a thing that lives in your bones. you fold instead of fighting because you know how to make yourself small, tuck away the places where they have clawed at, swallow the bruises so you seem clean. nobody needs to see it. you will live through this on your own. you know what you need, and relief isn't it. this doesn't mean you cannot reach out - it means it is not in your nature to do so. you should. hiding does not mean you won't be seen.

csmicwarrior​:

A smile of confidence bloomed in her features, nodding at her brother as she threw herself into the throng of hoarders. It felt like old times, even if that was so long, long ago. Too many years ago. Half a century. A lump in her throat, but she swallowed it down. Now was not the time to think about that, not when Aether was already two men ahead of him.

“     I’m just warming up!    “    She called out, twirling around and slamming the dull edge of her blade into a man’s throat. Kicking him over, she ducked under the charge of another and used his own momentum against him, flipping him onto his back.

With a sweep of her foot, she turned to Aether, nodding her head.     “    Behind you!     “    She called out,  maneuvering over her brother with fluid movement; like a dance they’ve been rehearsing their entire lives. 

“ Are you ? “ A tease as he bounces back, jumping back from his crouched position — only to glance behind and feel his sister’s hands atop his back, moving upward to give her an extra boost to get the height advantage. Twisting to cover her back as she lands, another treasure hunter decides to get cocky and swing forward at them. Aether’s sword’s base hits the nose with a crack, confidence escaping him as he turns back to his sister. 

“ Good shot, sis ! “

Another roll to avoid the sword of one, he kicks the weapon from his hands. 

“ Score call ! I’m at three, sis ! “

ventumusica​:

        ❝ do you mean to tell me, ❞    he leans even further, closing enough to brush their lips just gently;; enough to tease. it really is amusing– though not going to lie;; he WAITED for the moment Aether’s basheful demeanor would surface. he truly loved those,         ❝ that your gift to me is a bad omen upon all humanity? oh, so romantic you are, dear prince. ❞

        ❝ it really does sound very delightful, oh, noble seeker of FREEDOM. tell me, what was on yoru mind? ❞

“ hehe, perhaps. “ he tilts his head, the gentle brush of lips adding a rose coloring to his features. of course, he was easy to fluster and dear old venti knew that. 

a breath of a hum, pressing just a chaste peck to the lips that so teased. 

“ you’ll have to wait until it’s complete. sorry, sorry, though it will be worth it. “ eyes flicker across the other’s face, before another gentle laugh escapes him. 

“ though, dinner is currently waiting for us, if the dear god can pull himself away from such busy duties. “
