or as @apricotlipped puts it:

zhongli, punching a hole into the side of the mountain: it's free real estate

everyone pls read on fulfilment: where zhongli and childe go on the run some years after the post-liyue quest and has almost everything i've ever wanted to see in a zhongchi fic of all time like so:

Zhongli says, “I’m not a god anymore.” “Aren’t you?” Childe asks. “You take away a gnosis, but the earth underneath us is still yours. You summon meteors from the sky. All the adepti in Liyue answer to you.”  “You’re right,” says Zhongli.  “It doesn’t matter if you are or are not,” Childe says. He looks away to the towers down below, the ruins that Zhongli sealed, excavated from rivers of water. “I just know I want to be here.”  They sit in silence for a while, the sunlight heavy.

Hiya. This is part one of the finale to my flirting with disaster series. You and Poe are preparing to get married and your son is 6 months old.

The time finally felt right and the two of you decided to get married on his home planet Yavin 4.

Poe hasn't seen his father Kes in years so their reunion is slightly tense, to put it mildly.

You get the feeling that Kes isn't too impressed by you, or is that your own insecurities?

The family reunion opens up fresh wounds and insecurities, mainly regarding Poe's one time romantic interest Zorii Bliss, who he invited to the wedding because they are still on friendly terms.

Their closeness makes you feel slightly uncomfortable, and extremely jealous.

Will you get the happy ending that both of you wanted or will it end in sadness?

Warnings, angst, family dysfunction, language, arguing between you and Poe, my usual smut. No smut in this chapter but I'm still adding the warning. Lol. Not for anyone under 18.

Flirting with disaster chapter 6

Yavin 4. You've heard stories about the planet but have never visited it yourself.

He was excited that you were going to meet his father Kes, and that he would be able to meet his grandson.

Poe also wanted to get married in the shadow of the great temple, amongst the natural beauty of the jungle. After the ceremony you were planning on a romantic honeymoon there for a couple days, just the two of you.

His mother's people were descendants of the original builders.

It all seemed like a wonderful, romantic idea, marrying the love of your life on his home planet, but perhaps it wasn't such a great idea after all?

"Why am I so nervous?"

"You'll be fine, my father can be a little gruff at first but he'll warm up to you".

"I sure hope so".

You arrive at the Dameron family farm early in the evening with not so little anymore baby Maxim strapped to your chest.

His head is covered in a mass of thick, beautiful curls, just like his father. Everyone gushes over the beautiful little "mini Poe". He has big, curious brown eyes and his father's sense of adventure. He loves to roll around and knock things over.

Poe spoils him rotten while you try to be the disciplinarian. You've been thinking about adding to your little family already, both of you are hoping for a little girl.

Poe's father Kes greets the two of you warmly. He's a stern looking older gentleman with short gray hair cut into a military style buzzcut.

The two men resemble each other a little, but you suspect Poe might get his looks from his mother.

"Dad, this is y/n". Poe tells him with a bright smile. "And this is your grandson Maxim Bey Dameron".

Maxim's face lights up as soon as he hears his name, you hand Kes his grandson, who is smiling and cooing.

"He looks just like you when you were this age". Kes tells his son with a slight smile, Poe smiles warmly in response but you can still sense a slight frosty tension between father and son.

All 3 of you sit down to a nice home cooked meal. You tell Kes that you are a rebellion officer. Poe lies to his father and tells him that the two of you have been together for a few years. Naturally he couldn't tell him the truth about your relationship. You were the friend with benefits that got pregnant. That seems to impress him a little, just a tiny bit. But Kes seems like the kind of man that's difficult to impress.

Perhaps it's just your own insecurities but you get the feeling that his father doesn't really like you. Maybe he thinks you're too young? Could he sense that Poe wasn't telling the truth about the time-line of your relationship?

After dinner you and Maxim retreat upstairs to the guest bedroom, which happens to be the one Poe occupied as a child.

You tuck Maxim into the crib in the next room over, the nursery. You're exhausted from traveling and fall asleep fully dressed.

SLAM.

About twenty minutes later you're rudely awakened by the sound of the bedroom door slamming.

You sit up and see Poe standing there, he looks angry, and sad, extremely sad.

He sits down next to you and promptly puts his head on your shoulder. You turn around to face him, Poe buries his face into your chest for comfort, you stroke the top of his head and run your fingers through his hair.

"I can't help you if I don't know what's wrong". You explain with a deep sigh, remaining calm.

"I've never told you this but my father is force sensitive, so am I". Poe explains, his voice shaking a little. "Long story short I lost a battle of wits with him and he knows how our relationship started".

"And?" You quickly retort, your voice bristling a little with anger. "We're both consenting adults. What's the problem?"

"He thinks you trapped me by deliberately getting pregnant". Poe replies quickly, looking away from you and down at the floor. "He's almost certain, actually".

"Look at me". You demand, your voice switching to full blown rage. "Look at me right in the face and tell me that I trapped you".

"I love you y/n". Poe tells you, grabbing you and kissing you passionately. "I can't tell you that because I don't believe it, you gave me something I always wanted, a family".

Without another word exchanged the two of you fall into each other's arms and promptly fall asleep.

The next morning you, Poe and baby Maxim head to a small, local cantina to meet with some of his friends.

A petite, slim figure catches your eye. She's wearing a sleek dark red space suit with dark gold accents and an even sleeker helmet.

As soon as she sees Poe she removes the helmet, revealing a beautiful face with red hair and cat like green eyes.

Poe runs up to her and gives her a rather intimate hug and a peck on the cheek, your face immediately flushes hot with anger.

"Y/n, this is Zorii Bliss". Poe says with a bright smile, unaware of your simmering anger.

"Pleased to meet you". You lie, pasting a phony smile on your face and shaking her hand.

Well this is going to get interesting, you think bitterly.

The end
