Summary
The Abyss does not give.
It takes, and takes, and takes, strips you down, leaves you bare and exposed, stabs at you, drawing out fragility, a constant battle that either ends with a victor, now purged of his weakness, or a corpse.
In that sense, Tartaglia was a victor.

Childe, in the eyes of those around him, and himself.

Summary
Hell, Ajax had recently discovered, wasn't a hot place. No, hell was cold; a miserable wasteland filled with the frozen sculptures of immobilized enemies, where everything died slowly and nothing fought back.
Freeze comp Childe.

Summary
The hilichurls are acting... oddly. Kaeya follows the pull of the Abyss to Liyue, picking up a harbinger along the way, and that's when it all gets even weirder. The hilichurls are talking to him, pulling at his clothes- and when Childe asks what's going on, he's not going to accept Kaeya's lies.
________________________________
Someone– or something– is tugging at his shirt. It’s a rough, desperate thing; the pull of something that wants his attention more than anything in the world. Kaeya spins around. It's... a hilichurl.
“𐌐𐌄𐌃 Ꝋ𐌔, 𐌓𐌐𐌉𐌍𐌔,” it speaks.
And suddenly, it is headless.

Summary
When Kaeya visits Ajax's family, things are... tense. His father will hardly even look at them. Kaeya decides that if giving his father a scolding is what will make Ajax smile again, then he'll do it.
______________________________
“Nobody goes to a harbinger for love.”
Kaeya counts to three. Then, with very much self-control, he smiles. “Actually,” Kaeya starts. His voice is low, barely a whisper as the wind steals most of it away. “Your son is more than his title. He’s more than just a harbinger.”
Ajax's father narrows his eyes at him. “He’s forgotten how to be anything else.”
Kaeya keeps smiling. He smiles so hard that the corner of his lips start to hurt, and the way his skin stretches over his face feels unnatural and wrong. "Are you blind?"
