    Summary

    Ranboo has been in limbo for nearly thirty years now, and before their eyes, a new world emerges, beckoning them, they know not where.

    "A rest. A rest is all they needed. Then they would continue on their aimless path, following those silly flowers.
    But his mind was slipping.
    Away from his body.
    Away from his being, his mind was drifting off. And for a moment, they were home again. Home, warm and safe, secure in the arms of someone long gone, of someone long forgotten. Home on the grass block they’d spent thirty years of their death, and the grass was still there. Cradling them in a gentle embrace."

    Summary

    On the 22nd day of the final calendar month in the year 1488, a silent child is born.

    A mother holds her soft-skinned newborn with calloused hands. A father presses a simple kiss to a small head. A sister curls her fingers around the gentlest hand she's ever held.

    They know him as a baby and a brother.

    But as his voice warbles out for a siren's first choral cry, they do not hear the melodious babble they expect—instead, what rises from his tiny, tender chest is, as the Elders later tell them, the piercing cry of war.

    How lucky this unremarkable family is, the Elders muse, to be the first to hearken the moon's holy son.

    OR: Gillion is a siren rather than a triton. In some respects, this changes very little. In other ways, it changes everything.

    Summary

    Maybe there doesn’t need to be more to the world than Ajax’s dazzling smile when he notices his presence or the way he puts down his guitar to tug Diluc into his lap instead. He hugs him a little closer.

    If his fingers get tangled in the fabric of Ajax’s shirt, desperately trying to keep him here, at home, for just a little longer...


    They both don’t mention it. Instead, Ajax guides him into a soft kiss, a laugh falling past his lips when they break apart. “I’m writing about you, firefly. About the way you guide me through the dark.”


    or; they will always somehow find their way back to each other, in every single universe

    Summary

    Soulmates share injuries and when Diluc collapses abruptly behind the bar at the Angel's Share, it doesn't take Kaeya long to figure out exactly what's happened.

    The only question, then, is what to do with that information?
