>> 005 | I’m a soldier, not a plaything


[ Liyue is burning.

It had only been a few hours since the Snezhnayan army had landed on the city’s shores and in that time the soldiers had wasted no time cutting a swath of destruction and violence throughout the safe harbor. Merchant’s stalls were tipped over, their contents ransacked and pillaged. Temples burned on hilltops, shrines to the gods splattered with blood and viscera of their most devout followers. Ornate, gilded residences once home to nobles and elite politicians crumbled by the wayside and bodies of Liyue’s former citizens bled together in red trickles of blood that flowed like rivers through the streets.

Whatever class system that had been put in place before was inconsequential. There was far too much carnage to pick out the robes of a noble from ones of a commoner, and all parties bled the same.

It was uncertain what had prompted the attack. For all extents and purposes negotiations had been fine, with some trade ships conducting business as usual between the two nations as recently as a week ago.

One of the bodies laying in the street was a small figure garbed in Liyuen clothing, clutching a Snezhnayan matryoshka doll. Childe, better known as Tartaglia to his servants and Ajax to his close family, glanced over the grim sight and murmured a soft prayer before continuing on his way through the city. The bottoms of his boots and trousers were soaked with blood, stained until the fabric changed from a dull grey to a red so deep it was practically black.

He’d been pulled from his chambers by one of his men stumbling in, clothes ripped and tattered, blood flowing from a wound in his side. He’d yelled something about a surprise Millelith ambush and how several of his comrades had already been taken out while they were ransacking the Golden House, and then promptly passed out.

As Childe made his way there he took note of the destruction of the city with something like satisfaction and elation in his dark blue eyes. Perhaps it was because of his status as a Harbinger or maybe because his upbringing was less than conventional, but this was the sort of environment that he thrived in.

Bodies of Liyuen citizens littered the ground underfoot in the walk he took to reach the doors of the Golden House, and before stepping within he noted how they were slightly ajar, small handprints of blood standing out on the wood next to larger ones slimmer than his own.

How strange. He wondered if people had tried to take sanctuary here before the Fatui found them, or if they’d been chased here and sought to make their final stand in one of Liyue’s most well-known landmarks.

He sincerely hoped no blood got on the mora. From the last time he’d visited the mint he remembered that the caretakers tended to just leave it laying around in piles.

As he steps inside Childe finds himself staring at a scene of such carnage and violence he can’t help the catch of his breath, the way his pupils dilate while something warm and hot burns under his skin.

His men lay on the floor, clothes ripped and torn with the press of a blade or a spear. It’s a pole arm, he concludes, when he lifts his eyes and catches sight of a few more of his men surrounding a man with long brown hair dipped in gold.

And gods, he thinks. This man is a vision.

He wields the pole arm effortlessly, as though it’s another part of him. Childe watches as his men go flying with the force used against them, the butt of the shaft used in connection with an open palm to force the Fatui into giving the foreigner a wide berth.

Childe thinks he recognizes the uniform as something of similar make to the Millelith, but he’s not sure. There’s too much blood staining down the man’s front to be able to tell, and Childe hopes not all of it is this beautiful foreigner’s. ]


Enough. [ He calls out, voice ringing authoritatively in the open space. His men on the floor groan in reply. Childe keeps his gaze on the man in front of him, desire thrumming through his veins. ]

You’ve given my men quite the work out, haven’t you? [ It comes out teasingly as though there isn’t a Fatui lying limp with his arm missing. ]

My name is Tartaglia, Eleventh of Her Majesty the Tsaritsa’s Harbingers. But you can call me Childe.

[ And he smiles, the gesture so innocent it’s unfitting for the bloody scene all around them. ]

And what are you called, my lovely?

[The words themselves aren't a surprise - honestly, he's more surprised Childe hadn't demanded to fuck him properly before now - but it's a little surprising that he says so now.]

Mmn.

[Zhongli gives the little hum of consideration as he pulls his mouth off of the harbinger's cock, letting it slip free with a little pop.

Should he give in to that? Honestly, it's hard to say. Agreeing once doesn't mean he has to every time, and he's not a fool. If he refuses, it will still happen eventually. And if not... he tries not to think too hard on how frustrating it is to have Childe just fuck his entrance, shallow and rough, until he's so close he could scream.]


... alright. This once, I won't fight you on it.

[Running his thumb along his lips to clean off any remaining pre-cum, Zhongli shifts to stand and let the perfumed water roll off of him.]

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-17 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[Zhongli allows himself to be wrapped in the towel, drying his hair as much as he can. There's a strange sort of... giddy flutter he feels at the prospect of this, and he passes it off as just being needy after getting used to so much sex.

That's not a good excuse, but it's an excuse.

His gaze turns to Childe at the question, considering it with a soft hum. The position makes a lot of difference, after all.]


... I'll ride you, unless you decide you would rather roll me over.

[It would be the best way to make it clear that this is different from usual, probably. Plus, it means he has at least some control over the pace of it.

It's just... a little embarrassing isn't it? Ah well. He's made a decision.]
geocash: (♪I'm more deranged than before)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-18 12:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's at least worth noting that he's lost none of his muscle since leaving Liyue. Once Zhongli had healed enough, he'd started to set aside a small amount of time to practice and exercise, despite the sometimes exhausting play in his late nights. A routine helped him through to this point, and it will no doubt continue to do so.

And healed up, he's not quite as susceptible to the cold - it still raises goosebumps on his skin, but at least he won't devolve into tremors and shuddering. As Childe settles back, all confidence and gall, Zhongli considers his options again. Honestly, as angry as he is that the harbinger continues to force himself on him, he does enjoy his tongue...]


... you will no doubt enjoy either path.

[Exhaling a beleaguered sigh, the foreigner climbs onto the bed, resting one arm at the side of Childe's head. His hair falls in a brief curtain between them before his whole body shifts, knees taking the place of his hands.

If one didn't know their normal dynamic, one might think this was actually Zhongli's advantage, the way he peers down at the man.]


Come then. Show me again how irresistible I am.

[His back arches a little as he presents himself, one hand resting on the headboard. The other curves delicate fingers around one cheek, pulling the flesh back to expose his entrance and all the sensitive spots around it. His cock is still mostly hard from earlier even, only lending to the illusion of control in this instance.]
geocash: (♪Would you trust in me?)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-19 11:46 am (UTC)(link)
[At least, Zhongli is prepared for it. He knows what to expect when he presents himself, a pretty picture to be devoured.

Fingers curl around his thighs and he exhales a soft sigh at the teasing, his own hands coming to rest on the headboard.]


Ah-- there-

[It's a gasp as Childe's tongue dives into his hole, digging in deep and twisting against sensitive flesh. The pleasure of it is nothing new, but here, not trying to hide that he's feeling it, certainly is. He's in no rush, the idea of sitting himself down on his captor's cock still hard to swallow, easy to push off.

One hand slides down to brush through the harbinger's hair, stroking through it encouragingly as he bites his lip. As it stands, his cock feels almost painfully hard, and it makes it all the more easy to accept what he's planning on doing. It doesn't change him, he reminds himself. This is just... accumulated need and the fact that Childe deserves a little sympathy. Something like that.]
geocash: (♫As a work of artistry)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-21 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
[He almost risks losing control of the situation altogether. Letting Childe open him up was a wonderful mistake, and as his breath gets more ragged, hips rocking into the probing twist of his tongue, he struggles to remember what he's here to do.

Well, what he's agreed to do, really. In any case, he has to push at Childe's forehead before he forgets, inhaling a sharp breath.]


That's-- that's enough.

[Lord. It just brings to mind the many, many nights now where he's been laid out, the harbinger's cock teasing his entrance until he's fit to burst. And now... now, he'll actually get to feel it all. The idea is terrifying and exciting, and he bites Zhongli lip as he moves to push himself back up.

His immediate reaction after that is nearly to sink back down and let - make? No, let - Childe make him cum with just his tongue. Ignoring that, he inhales and exhales slow breaths, moving to position himself over his captor's cock and gripping it with one hand to position its slick head against his entrance. It won't be as hard as he might expect, he knows - Childe has stretched him far too many times to think his body isn't getting used to it, and the foreigner tries not to think of what that means.]
geocash: (♫All that you see is true)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-22 12:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[It only really, truly sinks in how obsessed with him Childe is when that word falls from his lips. That is, he'd been aware that he struggled to keep his hands to himself, that he planned on having Zhongli every way he could, but...

It makes something twist in his gut to hear him pleading like that. Given his circumstance, he shouldn't get used to feeling like he has any kind of advantage, but here they are.]


... are you afraid I'll change my mind?

[It's asked softly, with hands curled tight on his hips. If the harbinger wanted, he could pull his prize down and take him however he wanted. But... he doesn't, and that... well, it matters. It matters more than most things.

One hand shifts to rest on Childe's muscled, warm stomach, and he inhales a slow breath as he sinks down. The first inch or so is easy enough after all this time; the head of Childe's cock stretches him like an attentive lover, and the foreigner can't hold back the soft sigh as he feels it.

Then, he's lowering down more, and the stretching just one very skilled tongue can manage is rapidly tested. He feels huge, bigger somehow with every inch Zhongli buries inside himself, and the groan that escapes his parted lips is practically wrecked. Still gripped firmly in hand, his hips tremble as pressure mounts, and he rises up only to sink down and ease in another inch at a time.

Fuck. Fuck... he feels so nice. It's as different as he expected, enjoying the feeling of being stretched at his own urging.]


... big...

[It's an absent mumble, wrapped in a moan as he reaches the halfway point in Childe's cock. Having his entrance teased was nothing compared to this.]
geocash: (♪As it pools on the ground)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-23 11:48 am (UTC)(link)
[It feels like hours, just easing himself down an inch at a time. Zhongli finds it almost enough to drive him crazy fingers curled against Childe's stomach.

How much more is there, he wonders. He must be halfway or more... and as a result, he's quite aware of the effort the man must be making. Knowing what he asked for, it can't be easy to just keep touching and not pushing toward that end.]


I-- ah.

[Another inch or two sinks in, his body almost enthusiastic in accepting it, and his head tilted forward to watch hands move over his stomach, framing and brushing over his skin.]

That-- that isn't how it works, is it?

[Little does he know that's exactly how it works, and just another inch or so is all he'll need before he can feel the tip of his captor's cock against his skin.

It's enough to deepen the tinge of his cheeks, and the foreigner bites his lip as he continues. Another good thrust and--]


Nnnhh--!!

[It's almost sudden, the instant his hips press into Childe's, cock throbbing between them as the harbinger's bulges his belly just so.

He's going to lose his mind like this, he's sure of it. How is he supposed to keep enough sense to move when he feels so fucking full?]


I- I... fuck... it's so hot...

[He feels like it might burn him if he's not careful, pre-cum slicking his insides as he makes little, experimental movements that are enough to make his whole body tremble.

It wasn't supposed to feel this good, he thinks. Would it have, if Childe had just sunk balls-deep into him? He doesn't know, but right now, his fingers grip at the harbinger's shoulders, trying to work himself up to rising off that length.]
geocash: (♪As it pools on the ground)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-23 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[Zhongli is scarcely listening to the words; it's hard enough to keep his senses in mind as he sits on Childe's lap. Hard enough to think of moving before the man realises he's bulging his pet's belly.]

Wai-- wait-!

[Fingers press against his stomach and Zhongli gives a sharp little groan, his own hands gripping a little tighter at the harbinger's sides. Fuck, fuck, he feels nice like that...]

I just. Need a moment... I'm trying... [He doesn't think for a second that Childe won't do just that. Indeed, he's absolutely lost any upper hand he might have had, and just rising up an inch is a lesson in stimulation.]

How are you so... fuck... big?

[He's almost offended, as he rises up a couple of inches only to sink back down with a heady, needy moan. Gods, he almost wants to let himself be rolled over and fucked silly.

Honestly... if Childe's patience snapped, he doesn't think he'd even complain now. The idea of fucking a baby into him is illogical, of course, but he doesn't see the need to correct the harbinger on such a silly notion.]

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-24 09:47 am (UTC)(link)
[It's fine. Zhongli is getting used to it, and every movement is a little easier than the last, his heartbeat picking up somewhat as he rocks his hips.

And then, there are fingers gripping his hips, and they rise too high, too fast...]


Ah-- ah, wait, I-

[Childe pulls his hips down and thrusts up, and Zhongli howls at the sensation. It's too much, way too much, except... except it isn't, and his weight shifts to curl long fingers along Childe's shoulders as the harbinger forces his weight wherever he wants it. Oh, fuck, oh gods, his body keeps sucking the other's cock in, and his stomach bulges with each balls-deep thrust.

He's going to lose his mind, he's sure of it.]
geocash: (♪If I stay my arms)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-24 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's really no admonishing Childe, is there? At first, Zhongli has no real options as the harbinger plunges him down onto his cock, struggling to breathe as it grinds every inch into his insides. There are words, he can hear, but even if he understood them, he's not sure if he would have really processed any.

Hips slam into his, and his voice is almost a whimper as he's stretched wide around the Snezhnayan's girth. It's enough to give him a tiny reprieve, at least, to catch his breath for a few precious seconds before cold sheets hit his back and earn a sharp little inhale.]


Childe, wait, pl--

[His urgent plea is cut off as Childe's hips fuck back into him, another helpless howl on his lips. His cheeks burn as the redhead plunges in, eyes squeezing tightly closed. He can't even manage to relax enough, pain dragging tension into his body, reminding him of just how fragile humans are. He doesn't even remember when he'd squeezed his eyes shut, but they sting with the burn of tears as his body is forced to stretch wide over the whole of his cock.

It hurts. There's pleasure too, though, and it's all the foreigner can do to remind himself that he accepted this. That makes it his own fault, doesn't it? He can't get a breath to even plead with his captor to slow down, to let him get used to it. Fingers fail in any attempt to work for a long moment, until they're suddenly scrabbling for purchase, trying to push Childe away from him. Gods, the pain has to fade, doesn't it? He's sure it must be going away slowly, right? He's dealt with so many worse injuries than this, ones with no undercurrent of pleasure.]
geocash: (♫A phantom divine)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-25 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
[He slows, and the relief is absolutely palpable in Zhongli's body. Every breath is still difficult, and there's some anger in his glare in spite of the shimmer of wetness in his eyes.]

Of-- of course it hurts. It felt like you were tearing me apart.

[The tone of his voice is thin and breathy, fingers still trembling against Childe's shoulders. He's not pushing away anymore, trying not to squirm as the harbinger's cock throbs inside him. It doesn't hurt as much like this, just leaves him feeling terribly full.]

I told you, I was going as quickly as I could. It isn't as though I've done this before.

[His hips shift, and though there's a little flinch, the motion is largely pleasurable. After another moment, his voice feels almost as strong as normal. He has no idea he's just confirmed what Childe only just thought was practically impossible, of course. It's just a simple fact, to him.]

You could at least let me get used to it first.
geocash: (♪The selfish reason)

[personal profile] geocash 2021-08-25 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. I had never really had any interest. I would have thought that would be obvious from earlier.

[Perhaps there was a possibility he'd been fucked but never sucked dick, but that seemed pretty unlikely, didn't it? Then again, Zhongli... really doesn't know. He also doesn't know what to make of Childe's expression, whatever it was he thought.

The harbinger sits back and Zhongli inhales a sharp breath, his belly shifting with the length still so deep inside. Then... then he's moving, pulling out slowly, tenderly, and the hitch of breath is much easier, his expression and body not as tense as before. His stomach flattens out until Childe's hips start back inward. It's torturous, heavy, and he shudders out what's almost a sigh as that weight sinks back in. It's easy enough to read his expression, but he makes the effort to nod.]


Better. It still hurts a little, but I think-- that's going to happen anyway.

[After how rough he was being, Zhongli will no doubt have to actually have some time free of his cock to recover before it's even slightly pain-free.]
