*puts down some SAGAU fluff* come here i have a tasty meal for you :)

Childe often goes to the city to pick up supplies, as you can't wander into a crowd without getting accused of impersonation- he's seen the scars etched over your skin, the lines of starry blood from blades and burns. so even with the cloth mask you always wear, he doesn't push you to venture into any big cities or villages. you are the Creator, after all, and Childe- Ajax- wants you to be as happy as possible. besides, it's always the perfect opportunity to catch wind of any news floating around, both from his subordinates and chatter on the street. the Eleventh Harbinger is oddly quiet nowadays, completing his work in silence and deep thought, yet the agents of the Fatui swear they can see a faint sparkle in his deep blue eyes.

it's during one of his outings that Ajax notices that he has a shadow- a small, fuzzy shadow, a kitten trotting after him as he goes around doing his weekly errands. the tiny thing is determined keep following him, even though one of his steps is practically an entire journey to it, and after the kitten trails after him to every shop he visits, Ajax simply scoops it up in one hand and carries it with him. it clambers onto his shoulder and makes itself comfortable, periodically mewing and nudging his cheek. Foul Legacy is going mad trying to stay silent in the back of Ajax's head, trilling and chirping in delight at the new adorable friend.

you're equally as delighted when Ajax brings the kitten home, gasping and reaching out as he gently sets it in your hands- and just in time, as Foul Legacy takes over their shared body, nuzzling up to you and chittering very quietly so he doesn't scare the cat. he watches your every move and reaction, the warm smile on your face after all that you've suffered making his heart melt. your newfound friend meows, high pitched and squeaky, kneading biscuits against your scarred palms as Legacy gently pulls you into his lap and purrs deeply along with the tiny kitten's buzzing.

the Creator, an Abyssal monster, and their fluffy companion- now all you need to do is think of a name.

How Keegan and Ajax became friends was when Ajax came up to him a single time, asked him about the book he was reading and if it was any good. Keegan kinda just kept coming up to him to talk to him about it after the initial conversation and it developed into a friendship from there

hiii, i hope you’re having a good day !! do you have any random headcanons about any of the warriors? no pressure to answer !! i’m just curious <3

mercy's never seen the ocean so i think she's also never ridden a rollercoaster so the warriors take her to the boardwalk and her and ajax immediately get competitive about all the rides and how many times they get on and then they both feel sick by the end of the day. mercy thinks it was a shared bonding experience. she's right, but ajax still refuses to admit that she actually kind of likes mercy now.

cowgirl is actually from texas and when she first moved to new york she got teased so much about it that she bought a hat and decided to commit to the bit.

rembrandt created an art piece of a swan and a fox together when fox first got her name because she was so excited that they both had animal names. swan has it hung up in her room.

last one that’s been on my mind lately, i spoke about swercy + animals in this post and i think they are the opposite with kids. swan is like weirdly good with children and she knows all the kids who frequent the boardwalk by name. meanwhile mercy is 100% willing to argue with a child over the most minor things and swan has to physically drag her away because mercy that kid is literally eight and people are staring i don't care that he said your skirt was ugly

Day 1: Childhood friends au where they meet as teenagers

[tartagliove]

good morning you must gaze upon farmer boy!ajax

[slavhew]

theyre as silly as the music i listen to while drawing them

[all-our-turf]

i was thinking about what the swan and ajax dynamic would look like if cleon and ajax started dating and i think in canon it would simply get more complicated than it already is

however consider an au where cleon has already taken swan in by the time she starts seeing / officially dating ajax and i think there’s incredible comedic potential because like. swan could be so Annoying Little Sister who’s older sibling is dating someone new. she makes it her life’s mission to bother ajax as much as possible.

swan keeps “accidentally” interrupting them. she finds excuses to tag along whenever they go out somewhere because cleon can’t say no to her. swan takes ajax’s spot next to cleon at the dinner table or on the couch and then sticks her tongue out at ajax whenever cleon’s head is turned. she bickers with ajax over the most pointless shit whenever cleon isn’t around.

anytime ajax tries to complain about this to anyone else they find it deeply funny (“do you seriously have beef with a teenager???”)

cleon somehow has no idea any of this is going on. ajax knows cleon loves swan too much to risk telling her. swan knows cleon loves ajax too much to actually try and split them up. they drive each other crazy but cleon somehow thinks they’re on the road to becoming best friends and is thrilled

i think this gets even funnier if you throw rembrandt into the mix and she also starts dating ajax and cleon. ajax is like thank god someone who will Understand what it’s like to deal with cleon’s demon spawn little sister

except swan and rembrandt get along remarkably well and ajax is like. What The Fuck.

anyway putting aside how its not even ooc or "beneath him" at all for childe to mock and provoke people in general irregardless of whether he holds any particular distaste or malice towards them.

what i think this thumbs down denial debate debacle highlighted in general is how a bunch of people seem to have completely misunderstood why childe as a character tends to respect those he considers fellow warriors? like. ppl making these "oh its a call for help" "oh hes pointing at the narwhal for 'take it out'" "its a diving signal for down" "hes referring to himself going down" bc there was just No Way he couldve been mocking respectable and powerful neuvillette. just straight up seemed to have been under the impression that any powerful and combat capable individual past a certain power level automatically receives higher regard from childe when its... not the case at all? quite the opposite even.

like take him shittalking the other harbingers 24/7. its not like hes stupid hes absolutely going to be aware of the power differential between himself and some of the higher ranked ones (at least for the time being; after all hes always getting stronger). yet hes STILL delivering that diss track on the regular when nobody asked because power alone isnt what makes someone worthy of respect to him! its having that power AND taking a honest fucking fight with it as opposed to scheming and dirty tactics. thats why he cant fucking stand the majority of the harbingers. he respects a select few and in terms of high regard specifically as fellow warriors its arguably Literally just capitano and the tsaritsa herself. like if anything its completely plausible to me that childe might have even more disdain for the most powerful of his fellow harbingers since they COULD be fighting like real respectable people (to him) but still choose their shadowy machinations.

so like theres absolutely no reason why neuvillette simply by virtue of being oh wow so strong will somehow automatically gain childes respect especially when literally all he did was backstab him? sure thats a feat by itself and neuvis clearly fast and powerful but thats literally the OPPOSITE of what childe considers respectable conduct for a warrior.

like sure if neuvi somehow agrees to an all out apology spar to make up for the whole fontaine mess then its a different deal weve seen childes tendency to instantly forgive and resume friendly relationships with both traveler and zhongli after getting a good fight for it but like. childe at the point when the thumbs down happens has absolutely no reason to think particularly highly of neuvillette at all lmao. guy declares him guilty on clearly nonsensical grounds against his own personal judgement (& childes v big on committing to your own values too so thats ANOTHER no-no) of the disappearances case because a machine told him to, then ambushes him and now as the crisis reaches its peak is in the process of completely failing at holding the narwhal back for even a brief moment when childes been doing that for 40+ DAYS nonstop and already way past his limit yet STILL manages to rescue the civilians neuvi wouldve just helplessly watched get eaten.

like bruh. obviously childes mocking him to high heavens with the last 7 seconds of consciousness he had remaining are you kidding 😭
