[ Now that he says it, Yoimiya wasn't exactly sure what the entity's endgame until now. Everything lines up. It's clear that Seraphina wants Ajax and needs her out of the picture to get to him. But the million mora question is...

Why?

Why does she want Ajax so badly? Sure, he's a catch and it wouldn't surprise her if women from all over Teyvat wish to be this incredible man but to kill his own girlfriend is taking this way too far. It's clear they are dealing with someone who is not only powerful but also wickedly evil. There's also the matter of Alnair. Why did Seraphina keep referring to him as Alnair? Ajax is Ajax, there's no way he could be someone else. Unless this is a serious case of mistaken identity, none of this is making any sort of sense to her. For every reason that pops into her head, a million more questions also crop up. But as much as she'd like to solve this mystery, there's no way they'll be able to figure it out tonight. Not when both of them are drained, in pain, and mentally exhausted.

Yoimiya sighs to herself, unsure of how they can even combat such a powerful force until the heat in Ajax's tone voice snaps her out of her thoughts. She keeps her hand against his cheek, stroking his soft skin with her thumb to provide him with even the slightest sense of comfort. But really, there's no defusing his anger, he has every right to be upset with everything that's happened. Seraphina is specifically after him, mind-controlling his thoughts, and manipulating his feelings. If he wants her dead, Yoimiya truly doesn't blame him. ]


You're right, we need to keep our delusions on us at all times. There's no telling how far her power extends, so we can't let our guards down like that again. So if you don't mind, I'd like to do a little bit of train—

[ But before she can finish her line of thought, she hears a choked sob spilling out from his lips. Ajax... her dear sweet Ajax. He's been doing his best to stay strong for her this whole time. For every moment she feels like breaking down crying, Ajax has it even harder, he's been bottling it up and doing his best for her. And in turn, it makes her feel so bad and so selfish to be wallowing in pitty. With her finger still stroking his face, she leans in to press a gentle kiss to his lips. ]

I promise I'll do my best. I know it's scary... heck, I'm shaking just thinking about it. But I promise I'll keep fighting. You're not going to lose me, okay? I love you, Ajax.
