appease the monster
Another morsel for his eternal hunger. Four violent optics gleam in the dark temple, purple biolights pulsing as the massive mech moves into sight, staring down at the bound mortal.
A thick, sharp talon reaches down, curling around the heaviest chain to effortlessly snap it. "Little mortal~ What a pretty little snack you are." He rumbles, almost gently. Almost. There's a thread of mocking wound into the soft tones, a hungry gleam in those vivid optics.
The glyphs in the ruined walls flare with the Sparkeater's words, gold and onyx tones twinkling in the dim light.

Offering for Hades and Persephone
So I have really been into making things for my craft. I am preparing to start working with Hades and Persephone so I made these.
They are two little offering dishes. One in the shape of a pomegranate for Persephone and one in the shape of a cornucopia for Hades.
I really like how they turned out. Although I am thinking I may remake them in polymer clay so the colors are more even. But really happy with them and I can’t wait to put them on my altar!

This bowl of pure gold was made around 1100 BC near Zurich.  It shows deer grazing beneath suns and crescent moons.  It was buried by a farming community as a gift for the gods in hope of securing fertile fields and livestock.  It is in the collection of the Swiss National Museum in Zurich.

lmao so im completely shameless and a sucker for physical intimacy so ive been thinkin abt darling just having childe or kaeya sit on the floor while theyre in a chair and them just. slinging their legs over his shoulders as they do other work ?? they meant it as a friendly gesture to make him happy but also he might b drooling when they gently press their thighs against his head -💉
Slight NS_FT
No, because this ask has completely rotted my brain… Kaeya and Childe are such prevs they’d turn the most innocent of actions into fantasy material… little gross men </3
Warnings: Yandere, GN! reader, God! reader, talks of religion, obsessive behavior/mindset, mentions of murder/death (by thighs/legs), perv! Childe, perv! Kaeya, masochistic tendencies? (especially on Childe’s part), implied sub!character x dom!reader dynamics,
The rest of the ask is under the read more!
Tumblr media
— Kaeya
You’d only called for Kaeya’s assistance since Lisa wasn’t around to help you like she normally would; you were in the library just looking for some books to pass time – being under constant surveillance by some of the most protective people in Teyvat often led to your activities being restricted for your “safety”.
He’d been more than happy to drop what he was doing (which honestly was him preparing to go bother Diluc for the afternoon) to come to your aid. He’d teased you a bit, joking about how much you needed him - probably to try and distract from the obvious blush in his face the longer he spent time with you - but eventually helped you find some books about Teyvat’s mythology and history, both subjects that has greatly interested you since long before arriving.
He insists you read yourself, saying something amongst the lines of “I’m too tired, but if you want - I’m more than happy to listen to you reading it for me” though you’re inclined to believe he simply wanted the chance to silently stare at you, a guess that came from the fact that current that was exactly what he was doing.
You found it weird that he didn’t seem to sit down, opting to stand tall and proud beside you, you’d insisted he take the seat beside you but he refused - that is, until you gesture to one of the pillows on the ground, one that found itself laying just between your legs and the plush chair your rested upon.
“Why don’t you sit there if you’ve got such a problem with chairs?” It was partially a joke, you didn’t think he’d rather sit on the ground than an actual chair, and a last ditch attempt to have him sit down somewhere (because heaven knows how much it stressed you out to see him just standing there on the side, didn’t his feet hurt? Wasn’t his back tired? He’d been there unmoving for at least half an hour), you didn’t think he’d silently take the seat beneath your own and sweetly smile up at you.
“Probably the best seat in the house,” he muses, looking around between your legs as his eye twinkled with admiration while he stared at your shocked expression, “come on, you invited me over - don’t tell me you didn’t mean it?”
“Haha, very funny, Sir Kaeya.” You roll your eyes, hiding your face into the book - hoping the cover would be enough to hide the embarrassed look in your face - it’s not your fault he makes you flustered.
He simply laughs, finding your newfound embarrassment amusing, and lets his head hit the edge of the cushioned seat almost touching your skin, as if afraid of defiling you with his touch - “I’m not bothering you, am I?” He asks, his eyes closed, realizing he might be taking too much space for your legs to properly rest.
“Hmm, not really,” you think, your legs were a bit cramped up from earlier, you look down upon the man sitting beneath you, “but it’s fixable.”
You test the waters and let your legs rest upon his shoulders before simply letting them drape over his upper body - he doesn’t react much, simply stiffening at the contact before slowly relaxing - “You don’t mind, do you?” You tease, ready to move your legs in case he asks you to.
“N-not at all.” He coughs into his hand and it’s your turn to be amused at his sudden shyness; did you hear it right? Had Kaeya, the Kaeya Alberich, just stuttered? You go to remove your legs, shocked at the realization, but his hands shoot up to grasp at your thighs; “Don’t! I… I mean, you don’t have to, I’m fine… unless you want to, then it’s… fine too.”
You smile slightly, but opt not to tease him too much - not when you feel him hesitantly lay his cheeks against your skin, caressing your legs with such tenderness you struggle to believe this is the same man who’d slaughtered hundreds of his people, your eyes visibly saddened at the idea.
What a troubled soul, you muse while letting your body limp against him, you remember all you’d heard about his past and lore and your heart aches and so you make a promise to yourself to try and spend more time with him.
If only you knew, that while you worried and pondered over his past - the Cavalry Captain was all but drooling over the way your legs squeezed his cheeks. You would be surprised at how hard it was to contain the moan itching to rise from his throat when he felt your legs first find his body, if he could - he’d turn around and kiss your feet, let his hands wander your sacred skin while he proclaimed how grateful he was for you and your love, but he didn’t want to ruin such a peaceful moment. All you had to do was squeeze your legs and decide to restrict his airflow with your thighs and he’d be a goner, dead - no longer alive, but he didn’t mind at all - he’d rather die at your hands (legs) than die any other way, he wants to laugh at the thought.
His heart was beating a thousand miles an hour, he could hardly contain the excitement crawling all over his body the longer his skin touched yours. It felt electrifying, a buzz stronger than even Dawn’s Winery’s finest alcohol couldn’t compare to. If anyone looked at him, they’d think he was edging himself just by the lewd look that took over his handsome features.
For now, he’d keep these thoughts to himself - simply hoping you’d been so kind as to help him later with his little problem, courtesy of your unknown effects on the Khaenri’ahn.
….
— Childe
Your time in Liyue was coming to an end, you’d soon be embarking on the Crux to visit the Raiden Shogun and her region, Inazuma, which meant the last few days had been hectic as Zhongli and other residents of Liyue attempted to make the most of your time there before you left.
You’d managed to sneak off and find yourself some time, your head was pounding and your legs ache after hours of nonstop walking, you had originally meant for it to be just yourself - a well deserved break after the last torturous days - but it doesn’t take long for the Snezhnayan diplomat, Ajax, to find you - much to your… in reality, you were too sleepy and tired to try and feel annoyed or irritated.
“Ended up running away, huh?” He laughs, making his way towards you - your figure was almost completely hidden by an oversized blanket in the cushioned chair you laid upon, “You should be more careful, you almost had Lady Ningguang send out a search party for you.”
“Mmhm?” You groan, you vaguely acknowledge his words - your body was exhausted and your mind felt like soft putty; you just wanted to sleep and not wake up for the following week or two.
“They really ran you out…” He muses, a pitiful look takes over his face as he assesses your fatigued state, “Care to make some room?”
He originally meant for you to scoot over so he could cuddle you, it was basically a death wish - if Xiao or Scaramouche found him snuggled up to your sleeping he would probably end up dead and floating in the shore of Liyue Harbor by dawn, but it seems like your position is too comfortable or you’re just too sleepy to properly consider better options and instead, you part your legs and nudge him over to sit on the floor between them.
“‘ere.” You lazily motion, before flopping your head against the plush chair once more.
He can’t even tease you, his face is red at the implications - did you have no idea how… how perverted you were making him feel? He knew you probably had no secondary or lewd intentions but you couldn’t just do that and expect him to be okay! Still - he isn’t complaining, he’d dreamed of being in between your legs (in all ways imaginable) for embarrassingly long (to the point he’s sure if Zhongli knew he’d be banned from Liyue), and he only stumbles slightly on his feet as he makes his way to lean between your legs.
“Better than any pillow Mora could buy,” he groans, letting his cheeks meet your thighs, he looks up at your face - you looked so cute, sleepy and yawning, “so nice and kind, letting me rest like this… you’ll make them jealous, you know?”
His fingers trail your skin, taking note of how delicate it felt against his worn out gloves.
You don’t acknowledge his words, your journey into unconsciousness must have been swift, only tightening your grip on his cheeks in your slumber.
“… !” He feels more blood rush to his cheeks, his eyes involuntarily roll back at the feeling of your skin on his as your legs apply a pleasurable amount of pressure against his face - fuck, he wished Zhongli would walk in, so he could rub it in his face.
His hands go to rest on your legs, almost as if begging you to stay there or squeeze him tighter - kill him, he truly wouldn’t mind going like this, but it seems he was too careless and you’re startled awake by his sudden and rough touch.
“A-Ajax? …! Are you okay I didn’t -!”
“Of course not,” he breathes, trying to hide how much he enjoyed the location and situation he found himself in, “you should rest, I’ll keep watch so they don’t bother you.”
“But don’t you want a pillow or to move somewhere more comfortable?” You ask, afraid you’d hurt him and slightly embarrassed at the predicament.
“No, it’s okay,” he laughs, never once parting his cheeks from your thighs “if you don’t mind.”
“Not at all,” you reassure, thinking for a second before smiling down at him, “t-thank you for keeping an eye out.”
“Now, don’t worry and rest,” he smiles, patting your legs and you take it as a sign to head back to sleep - you’d need to make the most of any shut eye you could get in the next couple of hours, “to help you like this… is my pleasure.”
And it really is.

[appease the monster]
For once, the acolytes leave the mech alone, allowing the mortal to walk into the temple unmolested. They do follow him, pale optic'd things, hiding in the perpetual shadows, whispering in hushed voices. Rare is the mech bold enough to approach unbound. One dares to flit out of the shadow, about to touch the small mech...
A deep rumble sounds in the deepest shadows, the temple ruins vibrating in tune with the Sparkeater's displeasure. Part of the shadows begin moving, little flashes of purple biolights giving hint to the massive shape moving forward. "Do not touch him, hungry ones."
Both sets of violet optics focus on the newcomer, the god's vents sighing as he tastes the mech's fields. "Bold mortal, what do you seek here? I am not a god of gentle mercies."

Happy Valentines Day!
Spent some time this morning with Aphrodite. My worship of Her is still very new and who knows if I am doing “right”. But I am doing what feels right to me.
I gave her an offering of some colocate hearts and lit a candle to her as well. This one smells like cherry blossom. I then said a little prayer - can it be called a prayer if I was just talking with her? I introduced myself, thanked her for this opportunity to explore a relationship with her and essentially wished her a good day.
Who knows if it reached her, if she even listened. But I feel like I have to start somewhere. Like with any relationship, if I want one I will need to put in the time and work.
I also gave chocolate hearts to Hades, Persephone, and Hygeia.

its been a million years.  percy has gone from young millenial to squarely gen z.  i think that while he’s up on that mountain demanding the gods pay their fucking child support, he should tell hera at the top of his sixteen year old pipsqueak lungs that polyamory is a thing now and she doesn’t have to define her marriage the traditional way if she doesn’t want to.  she’s the goddess of all marriages!  that includes these modern ones too!!
hera is like zeus would you agree to an open relationship zeus is like SOLD i have been trying to do this for years, completely neglects to read the fine print that this goes two ways before signing on the dotted line for this deal with the prada wearing devil because fundamentally, zeus is an asshole
hera starts hooking up with committed married couples and having SUPREMELY powerful demigod children.  they are all her favorites and she lavishes them with powers and gifts and attention.  she has, unlike the other gods, no millenia of experience with mortal children to temper her reaction, and so this whole move honestly causes more problems than not.
meanwhile hades and persephone; poeseidon and amphirite; dionysus and ariadne; all of them have been trying to talk to hera about this thing for DECADES and then perseus fucking protagonist powers jackson comes in and turns a quarter of a century into wasted work.
#my post#pjo#it's very key that zeus is big butthurt about this#and that most of the olympians are ethically nonmonogamous thanks to some great work done by either aphrodite or eros#back at the end of the 1900s#being a child of hera is extremely weird because you're not prepared for it like most single parents of demigods are#also most of heras partners come out okay but ALL of them are 'blessed' to never be divorced which uh#can have some variability in terms of results#gods are complicated kids#a lot of hera demigods come up with parents who have very healthy relationships and pass on those emotional intelligence skills!#and then they start coming into their powers and suddenly they inherit a girlboss pta mom who will speak to the manager#and WILL support them taking over the world cause it's what they deserve. if that's what they want <3#most of them are emotionally healthy enough that they don't even Want to take over the world but uh. they sure are offered that as option#if they want to#hera kids have the Oposite problem of a lot of demigods who have gods practiced in loving mortal kids#they're like i cannot stress how much we Do Not Have To Prove Ourselves to her#we have to be very careful about wanting things she will just handle them  to us also#once we get married we can't divorce she would either kill us or it would Be A Thing for the rest of our lives#it's... very stressful to be a child of hera#they mostly try to befriend the chill party kids because they need to catch some Chill
