Childe, who big spoons you and wraps his long limbs around you in a loving (albeit tight) grip. Face buried at the back of your neck breathing in your calming scent until he falls asleep. You’re essentially his overgrown teddy bear.(Absolutely has one hand gently squeezing your tits while the other slides up and down massaging your hip, then to rub your soft tummy)
Childe, who likes to stand behind you with his chin resting upon your head and hands on your hips. Definitely the type of cheeky bastard to slide his cold hands up your sweater in search of the sweet warmth your breasts provide. Simply kissing down your neck as way to distract you from the sudden chill.
Childe, who’s very clingy and gets irritated the longer he is without touching you in some way. Addicted to skin to skin contact, once he got a bit he couldn’t get enough. Getting romantically involved with this man means essentially being his emotional support item. You keep him feeling calm, safe, and loved. Which is something he finds very hard to be without after finally allowing himself to be vulnerable. Craves affection please give it to him.
Childe, who uses you to practice styling and braiding hair for his future children. Enjoys the comforting silence and occasional sighs you let out when his fingers scratch your scalp just right. Very good with his hands!! {you would know ;)} Loves doing intricate braid work and always always ALWAYS gets so excited to show you the finished product. (please praise him, he’s very proud of himself)
Childe, who loves when you hold his face. The sweet and genuine love he feels under your gaze is stronger than anything he’s ever really felt before. He’s so used to carnal desires he suddenly cant handle soft feelings. (he likes when u kiss his nose,forehead,cheeks, and lastly his lips)
Childe, who feels like he could never truly repay you for all you do for him so he gives himself to you wholly. He’s kind of an overgrown child, a bit immature, and definitely has plenty of skeletons in the closet. But you? You know this and still accept him, you care for him without an ulterior motive, you love him, which is both such an odd concept to him that’s difficult to accept but also relishes in the feeling.
I just wanna take care of this man ( ͒ ඉ .̫ ඉ ͒) he deserves love
𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠‧₊› kaeya, childe x gn! reader. (separately.)
𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲‧₊› you've spent the day with them, and ended up in your house watching movies. now it's late and it's time for them to say goodbye, although you don't really wanna be alone for the rest of the night...
𝐒𝐭𝐲𝐥𝐞‧₊› fluff scenarios.
𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬‧₊› a slight dirty-minded kaeya, dw all fluff later!!
𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞‧₊› soft kaeya and childe for the win!! hope yall like this💓 req and asks open!!
Anyone who saw you might think you both are a couple. That wasn't the case, but it seemed like it at times. After all, they had never seen Kaeya spend so much time with one person. Nothing more and nothing less than the entire day.
Kaeya gives up the day because you are already sleepy after watching a film at your house. It's no longer the place for Kaeya to stay there, is it?
He gets up off the couch, causing you to lie on it by letting you fall onto your side. Kaeya turns, a small smile is drawn on his face, hopelessly dazzled by the tenderness of your sleepy face. He doesn't even know if you're still lucid, so he opts for a short goodbye.
“Sweet dreams, y/n. Today was a nice day.” after those words, he turned with the intention of heading to the door, but something stopped him. You had reached out your hand and held Kaeya's with a weak grip. “Wait.” you murmur. The boy looks at you curiously, kneeling to be at your height, wrapping both of his hands around yours.
“Tell me. Need anything from me before I go, hm?” he asked in a lower tone. Your hand moved a little under his touch, causing Kaeya to grab it a little more firmly, wondering whether to move his thumb and caress you or just stay still.
“Please stay tonight... I want to be with you longer...” you opened your eyes, your face flushed directly at the sight of Kaeya, who was a little too close. He raised his eyebrows and parted his lips at your words. “Oh? Is that some kind of indecent proposition?”
The heat on your cheeks increased considerably, and Kaeya noticed it, proceeding to chuckle. “N-no! I just want your company... but you don't have to if you want to leave.” You wanted to hide your face, but he kept holding your hand as if he strategically knew that was going to happen. “There, there. I understood you perfectly fine, it's just that I find it quite amusing to tease you.”
You frowned with a cute little pout. Kaeya finally released your hand, now running it through your hair, burying his slender fingers between the strands of your hair, a genuine and unconscious affectionate expression on his face while doing it. “You look pretty cute when you blush.” he admitted, lips curved on a soft smile. “Kae... N-not funny...” you stammered, so nervous that you couldn't form a complete sentence without stuttering. His heart melting everytime you speak with that cute mouth of yours.
“I've stopped teasing you a while ago.”
You haven't seen Childe this happy for a long time. I mean, really happy. And what you did was nothing more than spend the whole day together, a while fishing, another time looking at the clouds, relaxing in the sun. He would leave the training and the fights for another day, today he was completely dedicated to you.
At night, after finishing a movie together at your house, both of you were quite tired, especially you. While you were yawning, Childe got up from the couch. “Well, y/n. Will we repeat this day soon?” he started his goodbye, tilting his head to look at you. You lowered your gaze, eyebrows arched in disgust. You didn't want him to leave yet, his company... felt very different when you two were alone. It was so nice... you didn't want it to end yet. “y/n? Something wrong?”
You shrugged your shoulders. How were you supposed to say something like that to him? “It's nothing” you lied, and he wasn't an idiot. Obviously something was going through your mind. “Of course. Come on, tell me. Whatever it is, tell me.” Childe flopped down on the couch next to you again. “Aw, don't keep me waiting...”
You sighed resignedly. “It's just... I don't want you to go yet.” you settled into your place embarrassed, refusing to look at the boy next to you. He was silent, and your heart began to beat rapidly, wondering if it would've been better to keep your mouth shut.
“... really?” you finally glanced at him after his words, a soft pink adorned his cheeks and his eyes were wide with surprise. You nodded in response to his question “Why were you so scared to tell me? Come here.” he extended one of his arms in your direction, inviting you to lie on his chest.
“I don't know, maybe it sounds strange or uncomfortable for you.” you commented, resting your head on his shoulder and your hand on his chest. You could feel that the boy was also a little nervous.
He let out a laugh as he wrapped his arm around your shoulder. “Well, thank goodness you don't read thoughts.”
Because of course he wants to stay with you, and not just for one night. He loves your company, loves feeling you close, loves the peace you bring to him. Basically, loves you whole. Didn't you notice it already?

The sun arose, golden light shining upon a field of flowers of glaze lilies. The lovely ivory color pranced across the plains, small pebbles scattered around as the water rushed by falling into a long stream of waterfall down below. Peace and quiet, it was a moment of serenity; undisturbed and unperturbed. This was what Childe longed for — no, this was what Ajax longed for. Laying on the grass with nothing to care for, the rays of sunshine bathing his body that craved the peaceful background.
Childe — a title that he’d sullied and tainted with blood and merciless slaughter because of his drive to be an active machine in war; a title that he honors as the Eleventh Harbinger; a title that had scared many who’ve heard of his doings; a title of a strong man who’d countered many dangerous beings and lived.
And at the same time, a title that broke him bit by bit.
It was the very title that one day would spread a little far too wide in all of Teyvat that his younger siblings would hear of it. Where they would find out he worked as a villain in this cruel world; where his secret that he tried so hard and so long to keep; a secret to keep his family from being involved in dark business that could risk putting them in danger. Childe had to — no, Ajax — this was what he was keeping them from.
A world of monsters, nothing but ruin and lies — a cryptic and unapologetic dimension where if he asked as gently as he could, no one would bat an eyelash to help. A world so corrupted that despite not wanting to turn out a villain, Ajax turned into a fine asset on the battlefield. A world so unkind that just a simple witness to bloodshed would make one’s skin crawl and burn. A world where a young Ajax was forced to be brought into the Fatui because his desire to pursue violence was uncontrollable.
And one day, maybe that flickering grace of sanity in him would one day snap into a wisp of a flame.
Tartaglia couldn’t bear to picture his beloved younger brother look at him with soulless eyes, with indescribable disbelief as he would give him a look of incredulity if he saw his hands dirtied with wet gooey blood. He wouldn’t be able to fathom his surroundings; he might lash out; he might hurt—
No.
Tartaglia shakes his head, trying to rid of the negative thoughts in his head. He shouldn’t be thinking about such things in such an atmospheric calmness. He should be having fun; enjoying the scenery and resting. A good Harbinger shouldn’t break his mind over little things, no?
No. He had to stay calm; stay sane.
His family was waiting for him in Snezhnaya. Returning home into their arms with a broken mind would be like exposing his dark and poisonous behavior to his loved ones when it’s but a part of him.
‘Do not forget, Ajax, you are here to provide for your relatives and to serve the Tsaritsa as she sees fit. She wouldn’t like you questioning your abilities because she is never doubtful of your skills as one of her trustees.’
The ginger-haired male nearly lets out a laugh — would his family still look at him the same? Like he is a proud warrior who fights for the better good, someone who brings his family’s name to honor by selling toys that all children alike enjoy the toys he make? Would Teucer still look at him with those sparkling, bright jewels in his ocean-blue eyes, gazing up at him with unparalleled admiration? Or would they all turn their back on him, realizing that they’d been admiring a murderer in disguise?
Archons, he needed a distraction—
“Ajax?” A soft whisper brings him back to reality. The hallucination of his family staring at him in horror disintegrated into dust, his lifeless eyes blinking to turn his head sideways. His eyes met (e/c), and he felt his heart soften.
The girl he loves, the woman of his dreams, the queen he would rightfully do anything for so long as it was in his power. You were beautiful, inside and out. Your smile as your lips curl up onto an upwards curve, showing off that perfect smile that would brighten up his days to no end; your eyes that shined in the darkest of nights that not even the moon could compare; your hands that he loved holding even if there was no reason to — if people asked him if you were some sort of divine being, he would’ve responded yes. There was no one like you in the world.
The woman that loves him, the woman that cares for him, the woman that he keeps coming home to because he was high off on paradise every second he spent with you. There, next to him on the grass, you lied next to him with your hands resting on your chest as your head was tilted to face him.
“Yeah… what is it?”
You gave him a disapproving frown, brows furrowing. “You had this look again.”
“Did I?” The Snezhnayan male chuckles awkwardly as he rolled over to his sides so his right arm now supported his whole weight while his left hand caressed your cheek gently, a portion of his body hovering over you as he leans down to gently rub his nose with yours. “Sorry, I tend to… overthink sometimes.”
You bit down the giggle that almost slipped out from the eskimo kiss, your arms instead wrapping around his neck as you brought him closer. “That so? Mind if I know what it was about?” Your lips pecked his, and in just that split second, Tartaglia forgot what he was thinking of earlier.
God, he was drunk on love. And he wanted to bathe in it more, especially because it was you.
“Take a guess, I’d like to know too.” He teases, his pearly white teeth flashing as he coyly stares at you with a boyish grin. “I wonder what I was thinking about.” It wasn’t a lie, but it wasn’t the whole truth either.
You giggle, pushing his hovering body off of you and instead topping him by placing your two hands on either side of his body. Tartaglia was taken off guard, eyes flitting towards yours in slight surprise since you didn’t usually attack him first. You leaned down, lips brushing against his before letting out a short giggle.
Ajax nearly feels his heart jump out of his chest at your teasing, his cheeks reddening at what you were trying to do. His heart pounded hard and he was sure if you listened closely, you would hear the rapid noises it was making. But he focused on you solely — noticing how close you were and how he could practically feel your breath fanning on his lips every time you parted just a bit of those lips.
You were constantly in his vicinity after every battle, always in his line of vision, always so close to him — so close that he loved getting all too many opportunities to hug you, to hold your hand, to touch you, to kiss you any time he wanted; he loves simply just being there with you.
Every moment, to him, mattered.
It was when the ginger-haired male had finally grabbed all courage inside his heart to bring a hand up to the back of your head and push you closer. His head raised up a bit to meet your lips in a gentle kiss; one that, although you didn’t see coming (you probably did), you returned with just as much gentleness. Your lips and his moved in synchrony but unfortunately you both had to pull away for breath.
“What’s up with you today?” You laugh softly as you pulled away. “You’re quite soft today, not that it’s a bad thing.” You mused, seeing your lover’s expression convert into slight embarrassment, his cheeks tinted red.
He clears his throat, flushed cheeks. “Ah… well…”
You giggle and roll off of him, back onto the grass that tickled your cheeks. The silence that ensued after wasn’t uncomfortable in the least bit. Any moment with you was shared special, no matter where there are interactions or not. He counted them all and described each one as heavenly.
“Hmm… this is… a little random but,” this time, Ajax turned his head to look at you in curiosity, “what is home to you?”
He’d known beforehand what you’d lived as before he’d crossed paths with you — you were a victim of domestic abuse, and he was very much aware how much torment and pain you’d went through before stumbling upon him in dirtied garments. He had the option to ignore you, but the fear in your eyes triggered something in him — reminding him of himself from when he’d fallen into the Abyss.
Tartaglia was slightly apathetic as you asked, but as soon as you did, two things appeared in his head. One of his family in Snezhnaya and you, his beloved. The male hums in ponder, eyes darting upward, squinting slightly as they were blinded by the literal sun.
“You are my home.”
“Huh?”
“I would’ve honestly answered my family but,” he turns to you, eyes as dead as ever as he confesses, “they are my heart instead.”
You frowned. “Technically, in this given scenario, aren’t they the same?”
“They’re different for me. I can live without a home, but a heart I know I can’t go forward without.” He spoke, an aching in your chest stinging as he finishes.
And it hit you just how cold the meaning of his words meant. It was simple and straightforward, there was nothing to not get. That if he had to choose between his family and you, he wasn’t going to hesitate dropping you onto a pot of boiling lava for his own blood-related loved ones.
“I-I see… I’m sorry… for asking.” You apologized meekly, shying away now that you realized your worth in comparison to his family paled by a stretch away. What hurt, really, was that he didn’t even think twice about his decision. You knew already that he would pick family over you, but it still hurt.
“But,” he pauses again and you perked up, eyes darting to him in nervousness, “without a home, I’m lost and alone.” Ajax turned to you, eyes softening a great amount as his thumb brushes over your cheek lovingly. “You are my home, (Y/n). You make me feel safe and protected—make me feel like I can be myself without a hindrance, make me feel comfortable. You…” He trails off, his forehead leaning on yours. “I love you. And that even if I can live without you, I wouldn’t.”
Your heart beat erratically, your nose turning red as you sniffled. “Oh…” You tear up, hiding your face in your hands as he continued to caress your skin in a graceful manner.
“I… love you too. You’re my home too, Ajax—and I… I’m so glad you’re here…” You stammered, choking on your sobs before wrapping your arms around him. Under the bask of sunrays and amber light, you two held each other in a moment of peace and serenity.
This was all what Ajax needed to keep himself sane.
this is like… brainrot ?? maybe a slight drabble?? i think - might flesh this more out later… but i’m obsessed with the thought of like childe just being so in love with dancer! reader 😭 forgive me for my lack of formatting and just overall good pictures - i’m still trying to figure it all out but wanted to get this out of my head :)
before you read - dancer! reader is described as graceful and fluid?? (if that makes you feel uncomfy please don’t read :) childe is down bad ?? dancer! reader is also gender neutral but some descriptors may not be… ALSO THE END HAS A SUPER SUGGESTIVE COMMENT…
background - i’m a dancer myself actually :) - i’ve danced for around 5 years now (i started super late and i’m still catching up but i don’t really mind). and i dunno something about childe just being obsessed with dancer! reader - esp in a musical theatre setting…
—
dancer! reader is not there to sing or act… no they’re there to choreograph and lead all the dances onstage. childe is obsessed with them from the get go… he’s obsessed with their flowy movements and how they’re easily taking charge with the choreo. he’s so in love with how you’re firm but kind, giving out corrections that aren’t cruel at all - just helpful. he’s obsessed with how excited you are when it’s all finally put together. he’s impressed with how fearless you are - doing fouettés and a la secondes with ease. he knows damn well that if he even tried to do one turn he’d break something. he’s coordinated but not coordinated enough (he describes himself as a ‘strong mover’). he even watches you do an impressive looking jump split! he’s just so enamored by how driven and determined you are and how it all pays off on closing night of the show - with a difficult trick that made jaws drop. even though he’s pretty impressed with your performance, he’s even more excited to see your flexibility put to other uses…
warning: mention of bl//d but it is nothing detailed.
themes: soft, fluff, gender neutral, sfw, reader is not traveler
summary: childe was the morning person in your relationship. always ready for whatever the day were to throw at him, the endless duties that being a harbinger carried, he didn’t mind so as long as he got to spar at the end of it all.
you, on the other hand, always slept through your hectic alarms. no matter how much you tell yourself you have to be up early the next day to catch the commissions you’ve been lacking on in the adventurers guild, “just.. one more hour..” has grown to be your catchphrase now.
on a day when tartaglia was granted a day off (that he so kindly requested to spend more time with you), you overslept once again.
word count: 867
liyue is as cheerful as a city as mondstadt is. not really described as one as much as the latter is, but such is evident in the way the children, like the birds in the bright blue sky, chase each other from bubu pharmacy to the docks and above wherever the millelith wasn’t as present.
you were peacefully awaken by the sounds of children playing right outside your residency located in the heart of liyue. you groaned as you stretched in bed, completely oblivious to your supposed ‘duties’ as an adventurer. and what time of the day it was, and what day it was at all. “tart.. tartaglia..?” you groaned through half opened eyes and a yawn that followed suite. throwing your arm over his side of the bed where you expected to hit him in the face as you always used to do on the rare occasions you would wake up earlier than him, you were greeted by nothing but a cold pillow, and a mattress that was tartaglia-less. and this shot you right awake.
“oh my archon.. i overslept.. again!!” you say to no one but yourself, quickly making haste to get ready. and as you stumble and fall around your shared bedroom with the tall ginger who is no where to be found, you make a beeline for the front of your home. you’ve already come to the conclusion that he’s out doing what he does best; a ‘morning walk’ to him was a brawl with the infamous traveler from another world, a ‘brunch’ was an all-you-can-eat buffet at wanmin restaurant, and the ‘little gifts’ he would send you when far from liyue on an expedition was nothing short of but only the best, rarest crystals in all of teyvat.
the man has no concept of a wallet, nor a budget. no limits on the topic of mora, and in coming up with ways to show that he utterly cares for you.
just as your hands reached out to twist the doorknob, another pair on the other side had swung it open before you in a swift enough motion to knock your nose off your face. “AAH!!” you yelped in response and so did the very ginger male you were just (always) thinking about is standing right in front of you. with a face coated with sweat, blue eyes that once carried no reflection, somehow glimmered only for you, he greeted you with a smile that made your tummy tingle in the loveliest of ways.
“(y/n)! you’re up-”, tartaglia pauses as his eyes dart from you to the clock on the wall behind you, “-early.” he teases as always. you roll your eyes playfully and can’t help but return the smile he continued to carry on his lips. “yeah? would you say it’s my new record?” you place both hands on your hips in a proud motion. and all he does is laugh at how adorable you are. and as he does, you scan his attire that was very much casual, an attire that you thought he would never flaunt in public. he carried a simple black coat that accompanied a simple black shirt with minimal liyue patterns on the side. a few accessories from his signature outfit hanged on the coat, and he had his favorite combat boots on as always. “what- did the harbingers suddenly get a new change of clothes? you know i’m tired of having to wash mitachurl blood off your clothes that get mixed in with mine-” he caught you off with another soft laugh that, no matter how many times you’ve heard it already (and only you get to make him laugh this much. besides the laughs he does when he isn’t quite literally getting high in the middle of a battle), made you feel like you were floating in air.
“no..” he trails the word sweetly, closing the door behind him before walking past you, your shoulders barely touching as his soft scent tails behind him. “..i just wanted to wear something more comfortable..” he continues to talk with his eyes affixed on the shiny, wooden floor beneath him and his back faces you. “...on my day off..” he throws his coat over a chair, before turning back to face you as he leans casually on a table with his muscular arms crossed. “..that i so kindly requested from the ‘higher’ harbingers..
to spend time with.. well,
you.”
you could feel the blood rush to your cheeks in both embarrassment and in total adoration for the other. it wasn’t a negative kind of embarrassment. but the kind that made you fall so utterly speechless at how he knows just exactly what to say to catch you off guard. and he knows exactly what he’s doing. he knows that he’s so good at making you feel so important. so loved.
you both knew in each other’s hearts—no words or reassurances had to be muttered—that everything you both said, you both meant.
“so how about you lose that huge backpack of yours, get into the clothes i know you prefer wearing, and we go out for a late lunch at wanmin? that alright with you, comrade?” he smiles gently at you.
“that sounds perfect, comrade.”
hi!! i would so very much like to thank you if you’ve actually read it this far and liked it. sorry if this is all over the place but im an absolute sucker for soft childe stuff lmao and wanted to get back into writing, so here is a welcome to my blog too!! <333 requests as of the moment are open!!! <3
Asleep under the stars. (GN!Soft!Reader x VerySoft!Childe)
Characters included: Childe.
Warnings: None. Fluff, love, softness <3
Type: Scenario.
Words: 382.
Childe realizes his feelings for you. <3 I want to boost your serotonin. I hope you enjoy this, reblog if you like it or leave a note, and don't be shy to request, they are open!
You look like an angel. But angels don't hang out with bad guys. However, there you are... Resting under the stars next to the most troublesome boy in Liyue.
But anyway, you have a good relationship —very good I must add— and you both get along so well. How to say it... ? You two are like yin and yang. One has what the other lacks, and you both feel complete when you are together.
Tonight... is the weather better or is it just Childe's thoughts? More peace... more silence. It is as if the tangled lines in his mind become one.
A straight, clean, perfect line.
He tilts his head to look at you. A bit of the grass blocks his vision, but he manages to focus your face. Your pretty face.
Your features relax while you sleep, you seem such an innocent creature in his eyes thirsty for chaos.
You make him want to protect you at all costs.
No one can corrupt you.
Just him.
You open your eyes and turn your head a little. Those pretty blue orbs admire you under the moonlight and the billions of headlights that accompany it.
A gentle breeze moves your hair while you feel how the crescent moon looks at you carefully from above, and only she is present in this scene of yours.
You notice that the redhead is blushing despite the darkness.
What is your trick to bring out his most tender side, huh?
A curious hand approaches yours cautiously. His fingers brush yours, as if asking permission to continue on his way. You stretch your fingers a little more to approve their timid request, and you feel your hand fill with warmth when you sense the complete touch of the other's while taking your hand and intertwining your fingers delicately.
The breeze is cool, but your bodies radiate a pleasant warmth.
Especially the fatui. You have him crazy about you.
But is he the best decision for you? Sure you can aim higher and look for someone better than him. Or not? Is it very selfish to want you just for him?
He is afraid.
For the first time, he is afraid. To rejection. To YOUR rejection.
