Summary
"I just want to talk to you... about nothing at all, really. We spend all our time killing each other out there that I sometimes forget that our time here is supposed to be different."
"We're Gods, Zag. Our relationships look nothing alike mortal ones. So long as you're happy with our present arrangements, the oddities are not important."
"And if I'm not happy?"
"Well, that wouldn't be talking about nothing."

Rebirth means a life lost by InkBoundPrince

Summary
"What would your domain be?"
Achilles looks towards the side for a few seconds before responding: "War, I suppose. Mayhaps there was some luck in my life, that prevented me from becoming what I had sworn to stop, but instead found unwanted thrill in."

Cold night on a warm spring by InkBoundPrince

Summary
Persephone's laughter sounds so lovely, but he knows it isn't because of him.
For all of her words that she wanted nothing more than to be a mother, that she was more than happy that he was alive, that she adores him and how she would have gone through hell again just to see him had she known... well, he wasn't good enough of a reason for her to try.

Summary
"They still call for me, sometimes." His lips glisten from the alcohol. "Though I wouldn't be able to tell you what it's like to be properly worshipped." Zagreus has an odd urge to offer him that experience. "Though their calls for me are more desperate than what most other Gods hear."
"What do you hear?"

Your heaven, in my haven by InkBoundPrince
Fandoms: Hades (Supergiant Games Video Games)
30 May 2025
Tags
Summary
"The stranger," Patroclus purposefully exaggerates the nickname, "told me lots about you. From the training days, to you rescuing him from Lord Hades' reprimands, to you encouraging his bad habits-"
"Hey," Achilles laughs, eyes opening to stare up at him, "attempting to leave the Underworld is hardly something to be called a 'bad habit', Pat. You should have seen him trying to singe Cerberus' fur with his feet."

Summary
"You foolishly signed a contract with the Lord of the Underworld. Tell me, how much thought did you give it before staining that parchment with ink in the shape of your own name?"
"Just one."

Summary
"You don't like mint."
"What?" Lisa laughs, so gentle. Jean could drown in it. "Mm, do tell what makes you say that."
"You don't seem like the type." The ridiculousness of the statement dawns on her only after it's already out of her mouth. "Cecillia infused tea with honey fits you more."
"And what fits you?"

Existing (Your warmth feels cold) by InkBoundPrince
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
14 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
Which day of what year was it? Venti found it hard to keep count now, in these moments. He thinks he knows, but he also doesn't know his thoughts. The knowledge of what, when, who is like a foreign sensation all across his body. He wants it, wants it to wrap around him once again, but it hurts.
It hurts to function, the split seconds of full awareness, so scarce against the current of his drowning mind, are suffocating. When he feels the grass beneath his fingers, the cold of the wind (why is it cold?), the chimes of birds- it knocks the air out of him.
Funny, he thinks, considering he doesn't need it. Ironic, the rushing river of his brain calls out from somewhere far away, considering he's the Archon of the very thing escaping him right now.

Summary
"It's everything the last 500 years of Natlanese people have wished for, everything each and every hero of Natlan yearned for, the efforts of all Pyro Archons combined, everything that I wanted... every little thing led to this, to this ideal outcome."
"Tell me, why do I feel grief?"

Summary
"You're from the Scions of the Canopy, right? If you're into extreme sports, you should be more careful around your ribs. Breathing is more important than appearances."
Breathing is more important than appearances.

Honeyed deceit, harmless bygones by InkBoundPrince

Summary
Venti laughed, throwing the only-half smoked cigarette away carelessly. Xiao would have glared at him for that, but he was too busy trying to figure out how a chocolate could taste like how a toothache could feel. "Sweet Archons above-"
"I'm right here-"
"Not you!"

Forgotten regrets, bittersweet remedy by InkBoundPrince
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
22 Oct 2024

Summary
"Hast du jemals gedacht... that they are better than you?" Xiao tried not to take it as a jab, the soft, almost meek, way in which Venti said it proved that it wasn't meant to be. "Your siblings, I mean. Did you ever think of them as better?"
Xiao hummed. "Of course. Every day." He thought back to those moments, of battle, of preparation, of wound tending, of comfort... "They were always better than me. I do not need to think about it, that fact is already clear. I've accepted it long ago." It was only after the words were out of his mouth that he stopped to wonder if he should have even said them.

Come closer to me (Stay the night) by InkBoundPrince
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
09 Sep 2024
Tags
Summary
Lisa circled the desk, light on her feet as to not startle the knight, and with as much gentleness as she could muster, she clutched the wounded arm in both her hands, and raised them to her lips, her tongue running over the bleeding laceration.
Jean gasped, immediately snapping out of whatever trance she got herself into, instinctively trying to pull her arm back, but Lisa kept it in place, leaning further down so her breath tickled Jean's ear. "What are you-?" But before the full sentence was even out, Lisa gently sunk her teeth into the cut, her tongue still running over it.

Reminiscence upon a dim light (Catch my burden when it falls) by InkBoundPrince for merakimera
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
04 Sep 2024
Tags
Summary
"What else could I possibly grieve over?" He hoped Venti would have an answer, but another side of him hoped that he'd be able to easily refute it, pretend it never existed in the first place.
"Yourself."
"He's still alive."
"No, you're just carrying a name which you wish a gravestone carried instead."

Biting the hand that feeds me poison (I taste my blood alone) by InkBoundPrince
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
03 Sep 2024
Tags
Summary
Collei ran her fingers over the slight bump on her neck. The scarring from that needle, or whatever it even was, improperly healed from all her clawing on it. It's just slight discoloration in that tiny area, but to her, it's very noticeable.
Collei bit down hard on her tongue. Swallowing her metal-tasting blood and forcing it to satiate her urges. Her nails dug into that little scar tissue on her neck, intent on drawing even more blood, but gentle yet calloused fingers wrapped around her wrist and stopped her.
"Don't feed it," Cyno whispered. "Let it starve."

Summary
"I don't know why you insist on constantly thanking me. I wasn't the only one who helped you, you know?"
"But you were the only one that mattered."

Summary
"Come on, Nari... you have to know just how great you are. Look at Collei, who grew up under your wing, look at all of the forest rangers who depend on you and sing you endless praises... look at me, relaxed, in your presence."
"She loved everyone else so much more."

Scars roared to life, sorrow weeped tonight by InkBoundPrince for merakimera

Summary
It's so wrong, it's so silly. Xiao would never tell him.
Venti is gorgeous, with a pale face, sapphires mixed with emeralds for eyes, a soft smile and voice as breathtaking as no sight could ever be. Venti was beautiful in every sense of the word, intoxicating even. But that was not the reason why Xiao often stared as he laughed.
Venti is beautiful, but so was she.

Alcohol and accidental triggers by InkBoundPrince for merakimera
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
21 Jan 2024
Tags
Summary
Xiao always perceived his heightened senses as a blessing. In combat, seeing every detail and hearing every noise was a gift, it helped read body language and told him exactly what his opponent's next move was. It kept him safe on patrols, stealth wasn't an option for his enemies. He also couldn't be tricked with any poisons or substances made to weaken him, as he could tell apart the ingredients just by their smell alone.
But he can't turn it off

Summary
The corruption took its toll on Venti. Xiao was scared at first, afraid of losing his lover, but after a little while, he began contemplating Venti's newfound views on the world.
Perhaps he was right.
