[ his words fill her with hundreds of years of emotion and affection that it's overwhelming. tears prickle at the corner of her eyes, blur her sight as she watches him slowly unravel in her arms. her chest hurts, glass seemingly pumping through her bloodstream as her heart beats hard, shortens her breath. and time seems to stop for the two of them as they both chase each other's pleasure, finally one again when he sinks in.
childe. ajax.
she calls out his name again and again like a mantra, a prayer. each murmur against his lips is full of love, longing, and desire for the man she's fought the gods side-by-side with. there's no one else she wants that very moment, no one else who could satisfy her.
