Work Text:
Having done so much for the good people of Liyue, it only made sense that Yanfei would want to help Aether in kind.
When he mentioned his insomnia — an adorably simple problem for someone as complex and enigmatic as the Traveler — the solution seemed to present itself almost immediately in the adviser’s mind. A plan that would enable her to lend her services while staying by his side, to ensure that he would get a good night’s sleep, and continue to perform for the overall betterment of Liyue and Teyvat at large.
Indeed.
She was going to bore the poor boy to death sleep.
“Need a cure for insomnia? Let me read you the history of the development of Liyue’s legal system!”
Yes! It was foolproof. It’s worked time and again. There was no reason it shouldn’t work for the likes of Aether.
Of course, Yanfei was no stranger to distraction, and there was none greater than the Traveler himself. She couldn’t deny the feelings that she held for the blond boy, and internally considered, if only a moment, another course of action. After all…
She had never been in his room before, much less sat down on his bed!
With her hands folded over the book in her lap, Yanfei brushed a tangerine-colored strand of hair behind her ear, clearing her throat as the Traveler sat just next to her, smiling optimistically at the prospect of a cure for his sleeplessness.
She couldn’t decline a smile like that. Not when they were alone. How could she ever?
“None of my friends have ever lasted longer than 20 minutes,” she added, prompting Aether to arch an eyebrow at the adviser’s method.
“Um… Do you have something that works faster than that?” He asked.
There was a subtle change in the Traveler’s expression as the question left his lips. Something just beneath the surface of his inquiry and, pitifully, Yanfei didn’t quite grasp it. She knew he was alluding to something — he must have been, for him to clear his throat as firmly as he had — but surely he wasn’t talking about something… inappropriate, was he?
“Oh, you want something more fast-acting?” The legal adviser chuckled softly. “Then I’ll recite from the legal codices! Let me know in the morning which section I got to before you fell asleep!”
Aether frowned, and it was a cue that didn’t go unnoticed by Yanfei as she cracked open the book in her lap, feeling a twinge of guilt work its way through her. In truth, she would have wanted nothing more than to jump his bones right then and there. To not simply tuck him into bed, but…
Well, that was what she wanted. Did Aether feel the same? She truly didn’t know, and the lack of insight bothered her more than anything else. She was known for her mediations, after all. What if this was a serious misread? She would damage her relationship with the Traveler, and perhaps that of his comrades. The prospect was more worrying than she expected it to be — but why?
Even so, Aether nodded patiently, leaning back on his hands and turning his frown upside-down for the legal advisor to go on with her remedy. She matched his smile with one of her own — one that was warm, sweet, and truly earnest.
Yanfei knew the legal system of Liyue in and out. She understood economics and its impact on the socio- and geo-political structure of the world in which she lived.
Romance? It was beyond her. Indistinct and frightening. It wasn’t something that could be written down or marked on a chart, quantified, or made law. It was… chaos.
It was, she sadly decided, not to be for the likes of her. And suppressing that thought, Yanfei spread the hefty tome over her lap and began reading.
“Okay, here I go…”
And so it went.
Yanfei read aloud from her book as she sat on Aether’s bed, almost completely losing herself in the recital of the aforementioned codices. She knew most of these from memory, of course, although it certainly helped to have the book spread out in front of her so that she could keep her eyes from wandering over to the Traveler too much.
And yet…
From the corner of her eye…
Am I imagining things? Or is he…
There was no denying it. Aether was staring openly at Yanfei. Specifically, the adviser watched as the Traveler’s golden gaze carried over to her figure; her bare thighs and the smoothness of her hips.
Gosh, I sure chose a good day to wear this outfit…!
She gulped amidst her reading, and Aether glanced away as though he weren’t just undressing her with his gaze.
How daring, Aether… to think I wouldn’t notice!
She turned to smile slyly at him as she spoke. “So far so good, Aether? Starting to doze off a little?”
The Traveler nodded sheepishly. “I think it’s working. I really enjoy listening to your voice, Yanfei. It makes me feel so comfortable…”
“Heh, and you said you wanted something fast-acting ! Now you’re telling me you want more of my voice?” She teased, feeling a bit daring given the circumstances.
“Yanfei,” said Aether, “do you mind if I get… comfortable?”
“Huh? Of course I don’t mind! Whatever helps you sleep, right?” She gave him a friendly smile, watching as Aether adjusted himself. “If I can do anything for you, Aether, I’d love to—”
Suddenly, and with little warning, Aether plopped his head right on Yanfei’s lap.
Liyue’s famed financial adviser went stock still. Her eyes widened as she stiffened in this intimate new position, looking down at Aether’s half-open eyes and half-cocked smile.
“Thank you,” he whispered to her, keeping his head right on top of her lap, making Yanfei have to lift the book up and off of herself. “This is what I really need…”
“HUH?!”
Yanfei stammered as she put the book aside, fingers trembling at the sight of AETHER on her LAP and SMILING UP AT HER!
Oh, my goodness… oh, my GOODNESS!
She didn’t even know what to say. All words failed her, especially when Aether’s smile seemed to widen at the sight of her embarrassment.
“Is this not okay?” He asked brazenly, nuzzling the adviser’s bare thighs and yawning cutely thereafter. “Your lap looked even comfier than my pillows…”
“Is that s-so…”
Yanfei took a deep breath and let it pass through her quaking lips.
No, this was fine… this was fine! This was so fine it wasn’t even funny.
“W-well, I’m glad…!” Yanfei cleared her throat, trying (and miserably failing) to stop herself from blushing as hard as she was. “Erm, I can’t put the book in my lap with you lying there, though, so…”
“You don’t need it, right?” Aether asked hopefully.
Gah! This guy…
“No, I suppose I don’t,” said Yanfei, rubbing her hands together to fidget more than anything else. “Um, let’s see… if you’re comfy, then I’ll just continue?”
Aether nodded against her smooth lap. “Please do.”
Oh, Aether…
She loved the sensation of his cheek against her bare, soft thighs. It was a sensation that she never wanted to lose, and beyond that, it worried Yanfei to have such thoughts and feelings. Thoughts of equal parts passion and intimacy — all for him.
Even so… He’s so close to my…
He’s gonna notice that I didn’t…!
“Keep going,” Aether said with a soft yawn. “Don’t stop, Yanfei… I really like your voice.”
God, he’s so cute, I’m going to lose it…
It was no use. Yanfei couldn’t continue under these conditions. With Aether’s head resting on her lap, all it would take is a tilt of the head before the Traveler bore witness to her… succulent womanhood. Her skirt wasn’t terribly long, and thus, the adviser could only imagine what manner of debauchery they would get up to, all by their lonesome.
With none of their comrades to distract or distance them from one another, Yanfei could afford to let her mind carry her to the filthiest of places. Much like the financial tome she carried with her, Yanfei wanted to spread herself over his bed. She wanted to bare all her sweetest secrets to him, and to rake her slender fingers through his golden locks of hair all the while.
Yanfei moaned without meaning to, causing the Traveler’s eyes to open just a little wider. It was as though he knew something was coming, but rather than directly confront her…
“Yanfei,” said Aether, snuggling closer to her, “what’s wrong?”
The two locked eyes at that moment, with Yanfei’s pupils trembling from the sheer absurdity of their intimate proximity. She had never been quite this close to anyone before, much less the Traveler that she’d come to know during their adventure.
Perhaps their adventure, thought Yanfei, was one that ought to have its moment of recess. A lull, a pause, an interlude — much like their mutual silence, which held so much understanding that speaking any words felt extra.
She spoke them nonetheless, cheeks blushing bright red as she ran a hand through her own locks of messy hair.
“Aether, you’re so troublesome,” Yanfei complained.
“I am?” The blond boy smiled. “Sorry about that.”
“Are you really?” Yanfei pouted playfully as she closed her eyes and shook her head. “I’m sorry, Aether… I can’t lie to you anymore. Lying to you is more trouble than it’s worth, and I think I’m only just now realizing that.”
The Traveler raised an eyebrow as Yanfei continued, watching her from his spot on her lap.
“The truth is… I’ve really been looking forward to this. I’ve been looking for an excuse to end up alone together, and when you mentioned your insomnia, I… well, I flip-flopped back and forth between deciding to do something or just letting my opportunity pass me by. After all, I don’t want to ruin things between us or our allies.”
“You could never ruin anything for me,” Aether protested.
“Are you sure about that? Because…”
With an anxious gulp, Yanfei bunched up her skirt in her fists, before pulling up the flaps to reveal herself to the Traveler. In a moment, Aether turned his head and his eyes went wide with his suspicions confirmed — Yanfei wore no undergarments today. She was naked beneath the skirt she’d only just raised, cheeks flushed red with embarrassment as she turned her gaze away from him.
“Because,” she continued, “I still tried to come prepared, just in case. That’s right — no panties.”
Aether didn’t blink, worried that cute pink treasure would vanish before his very eyes like a mirage if he did. With his head still on the adviser’s lap, he had a fully plain view of her rosy sex; the nakedness he’d only fantasized about for as long as he’d known her.
“How shockingly daring… of Liyue’s enforcer of justice, huh…?”
She was blushing beet red now, though she never once dared to look Aether in the eye in light of her open bawdiness. She half-hoped that the Traveler would outright do something — anything — to free her from this constant tug and flow of uncertainty.
“This kind of stuff… it’s not like written laws or agreements,” Yanfei mumbled. “It feels too… chaotic… and… I’m afraid of messing things up. All I can do is guess and hope for the best,” she admitted. “I hope that’s okay…”
Gulping nervously, Yanfei finally turned her head to look down at Aether, finding the Traveler blushing himself from her boldness. There was a particular sparkle in the blond’s eyes. A sparkle she wouldn’t mind catching more often, not unlike the visage of shooting stars.
“Aether…” Yanfei sighed. “Can you please say something…?”
“Something.”
The boy grinned despite Yanfei’s playful eye-rolling, and he sat up to look right at the adviser, together on his bed with her.
“I know I advertise myself as being fully versed in every area of the law, but… this is lawless!” Yanfei frowned, only to perk up suddenly as Aether reached out to cup her cheek.
“Don’t think about it,” said Aether. “Just… feel it.”
Just… feel… it…?
The three words echoed out in the courtroom of her mind as he kissed her. Locked his lips against her own. Just the same, there was no longer anything to think about — not anymore.
All logic and reason tumbled out of her poor little head. In its place was warmth, assurance, and a charming boy who had committed a crime — broken a law — so egregious as to be wholly unforgivable.
He’d stolen her heart.
The kiss was broken just as quickly as it started, leaving Yanfei with her eyes half-closed and smooching the air between them, blushing and full of want. Aether chuckled at the sight of the flustered adviser, gracing her creamy thigh with a delicate touch.
“Even so, no panties?” He tutted his tongue. “That kind of makes you a pervert, miss adviser…”
Yanfei scoffed. “That’s it! Come here, you…!”
With that, the two locked lips again, this time collapsing onto the mattress beneath them.
And so it went…
They couldn’t get their clothes out of the way fast enough.
Yanfei swiftly assumed the position, having known through secret books exactly what came next. Aether, too, was more than ready for the escalation of their relationship, and he palmed the girl’s breasts while he ground himself against her dripping-wet sex.
Yanfei moaned quietly, blushing happily beneath Aether and lacing her arms around the Traveler’s neck to hold him intimately closely.
“Aether,” Yanfei purred. “I’ll go insane if you make me wait longer for this…”
“No foreplay or anything like that?” Aether teased, leaning down to pepper a line of sweet kisses against the adviser’s soft, warm, red-flushed neck. No sooner did his lips grace her skin did she shiver with abject delight, cooing and coming undone beneath him.
“Ahh~ Aether!” Yanfei whimpered.
“Your body is so greedy for it,” he taunted with a whisper, prodding the tip of his cock up against her entrance. “Like I said: don’t think, just feel…”
Don’t think, just feel , she reminded herself. Don’t think, just feel!
What she felt more than anything was Aether beginning to push himself into her maidenhood, and she chewed on her lip to suppress a whimper as he made himself at home. Looking up at him from her lying position, she considered just how divine he really was to her, even if she was far too embarrassed to speak something like that out loud.
As he sank inches into her waiting sex, she could withhold herself no longer, and she arched her back with a throaty moan as he worked his length inside, cursing just under his breath from the pleasure of invading her so suddenly. Stoking the fires that raged inside them.
“Aetherrrrr,” Yanfei slurred. “Aether, that f-feels… so g-good… I’ve been w-waiting for this…!”
“Me too, Yanfei…” Aether exhaled sharply as he pressed his forehead up against Yanfei’s own, with the flustered girl basking in the soothing, passionate warmth they made together.
“Hah… come on, I can take it,” she urged him, keeping her bare thighs spread apart while he settled in between them. “Give it to me, Aether… please!”
He didn’t have to be told twice.
Finding a steady rhythm, Aether started pumping his hips against Yanfei’s own, groaning in tune with her harmonious moans and keeping her pressed down on the bed down below. She was so wet as to be soaking the bedsheets already, with Aether remarking as such just beside her ear.
“What?” Yanfei groaned, eyes glazed over with lust as she hardly even heard him. “W-what are you saying, Aether…?”
“You’re such a mess,” the boy teased, smiling down at her as they made love — as his body crashed against her own, creaking the frame of the bed in which they fooled around. “Such a, ngh, messy girl, Yanfei… Hah, I never expected, something like this, from you…!”
Her blush deepened. To avoid wearing underwear in the first place, and then to initiate something like this between them… it was as though the girl had reached her breaking point at just the right time. This was unlike her!
“You drive me crazy,” Yanfei admitted, hiding her face in the crook of Aether’s neck. The Traveler groaned aloud in pleasure, sinking deeper into the adviser and listening along to her glorious groans and moans of ecstasy — sounds he matched with equal passion and intensity.
He couldn’t stop thrusting if he tried, as though his body was moving on autopilot. Aether thrust himself against Yanfei’s hot, wet cunt; he lanced her repeatedly and with zeal, relishing the wet slaps that echoed out between them and the gentle, rhythmic squeaking underneath them.
“Hah, that’s it,” Aether moaned. “Such a dirty girl, Yanfei… listen to how messy you are…”
“This is a-all your fault, y-you…!” Yanfei’s mouth fell open with another deep moan as Aether speared her over and over again, feeling herself grow stuffed and satisfied whenever he came forward, only to miss him terribly once he pulled back. The tug and flow of their lovemaking was something she wanted to last forever, and she made it known by pulling Aether into a deep, impassioned kiss while she enveloped him utterly.
It was a feverish kiss, one that only deepened once Yanfei opened her mouth to welcome Aether’s tongue inside. The dance was haphazard, but the purpose was crystal clear, and Aether groaned into the kiss as he reached up to grope and fondle Yanfei’s gorgeous breasts, with Liyue’s adviser gleefully welcoming every grace upon her skin.
And then, before she knew it…
“Nngh!! Hah, Aether, AETHER—!”
Yanfei arched her back as she reached her climax, clenching around Aether’s cock and yelling aloud from the ecstasy that gripped her so tightly. It was like a bolt of lightning to the spine, stopping just shy of her core as it spread outward in waves, and it caused poor Yanfei’s hot, blushing body to shiver delightedly in Aether’s safe embrace.
“Yanfei!” Aether grunted as he had her, leaning down to kiss the girl’s neck and draw more pleasured moans from her. “Yanfei, yes~!”
“Aether,” Yanfei said with a deep pant, eyes screwed shut as she chanted his name repeatedly, like a dutiful mantra. “Aether, Aether, Aether~!”
“I love it when you say my name,” the blond admitted, leaning down to leave a mark on Yanfei’s neck in his moment of lustful domination. A mark of something like ownership.
She drifted through her orgasm, feeling Aether’s cock twitch and throb deep inside her dripping wet cunt, and it wasn’t long before the Traveler reached his own peak, grunting and growling up against Yanfei’s ear as he pumped her full of hot and gooey spunk, stuffing her slick, sopping pussy with seed.
Yanfei cooed with delight as the Traveler filled her, his hips smacking wetly against her own while he pumped her well and full up. Her eyes rolled back into her head as she groaned with pleasure, quivering with ecstasy beneath him.
“Oooohhh! Aetherrrr,” Yanfei practically purred. “Aether, yessshhh…”
“You feel so good, Yanfei,” Aether praised, caressing the girl’s breasts as she laced her arms lovingly around his neck to snuggle against him. The warmth was so paramount as to be radiating from their bodies, and Yanfei couldn’t remember the last time she felt so happy.
Aether could see it, too. The adviser laid bare; she practically had hearts in her eyes from how madly in love she was with the Traveler, raking her fingers through the boy’s sunny locks as she felt ravished by him. Made messy; torn asunder.
“You f-filled me up so much,” Yanfei whispered, panting hotly, only inches from his face. “You gave me s-so much, Aether…”
“There’s plenty more where that came from,” he teased, gracing her cheek with just a finger. “Oh, Yanfei…”
“So b-big… so warm… and s-so comfortable,” she remarked, taking just a moment to adjust herself as Aether’s cock throbbed once again inside her well-used pussy.
It was a considerable mess. Warm jism trickled out from the space between Yanfei’s pussy lips and the Traveler’s cock, dripping onto the bedsheets beneath them and inspiring Yanfei to want more, as though she couldn’t live without this satisfying heat just inside her core.
“You’re still hard,” she whispered. Aether nodded, giving the adviser a confident smile.
“You drive me crazy too,” he told Yanfei, giving her a sweet smooch on the forehead. Just then, Yanfei surprised Aether by locking her legs around his back, and she ground against him with ardor.
“Cum inside me again,” she begged. “Don’t stop, give me more, please…!”
Wordlessly, Aether worked up another rhythm between them both, pumping his hips back and forth against Yanfei’s own wet and sticky ones. He never pulled out of her snatch, only returning to give the girl exactly what she wanted, and he plunged deep inside her warm, gooey folds.
Every thrust forward made Yanfei moan out with joy. She couldn’t wipe the smile from her face if she tried, eyes half-closed with true bliss.
The entire time, she kept her legs locked around Aether’s body, making damn sure that he wasn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Not until he stuffed her full for the second time, and maybe even a third…
“Aaaether,” Yanfei shakily moaned. “I’ve always h-had a c-crush on y-you,” she finally admitted aloud, blushing intensely from the confession and from their lovemaking. She could barely even speak given just how deeply she was being taken, and Aether never once stopped rutting her, even during her love confession.
“Is that right?” He teased, tickling her nose with his own as he dipped down to kiss her. “Hah, you’ve, nngh, always wanted this…?”
“I just d-didn’t know how to s-say it,” Yanfei said with a whimper, trying to cover her mouth with the back of her hand. “I’m embarrassed… nngh! I didn’t think I’d t-take so long… to d-do something like this with you… but I was scared…”
“Well,” said Aether, “you don’t have to be scared anymore, Yanfei, because…”
He kissed her once more in earnest, locking his lips against her own and feeling her tremble against his body from the way he rutted her; the pleasure that spread between them like waves of heat and splendor. It was a kiss that, no matter what, ended far too soon.
“I love you,” Aether confessed in kind, caressing the girl’s cheek with his soft touch just as he had before. “I love you, Yanfei… and I want only you.”
Yanfei sniffled as Aether drilled her into the bed, laughing gently in light of their mutual affection. “Oh, Aether! I love you too!” She exclaimed, panting and already close to another climax. “I love you so much, Aether!”
“Yanfei!” Aether’s thrusts soon became quicker, and he stayed inside her for longer between forward pumps. Each time he came forward, Yanfei would cry out with pleasure, and her fingers clawed at his back to hold on for dear life.
Until…
“Can’t hold b-back anymore!” Yanfei exclaimed. “I’m cumming again, Aether! I’m cumming, I’m CUMMING!”
She threw her head back and screamed as she came, a tremor running through Yanfei’s slim frame as she soaked their crotches and the sheets in her radiance and love. Clenching and unclenching around the Traveler’s cock, it was as though she were milking him for all that he could give her — and his next orgasm wasn’t too far behind her own.
“Yanfei!” Aether shouted. “Yanfei, yes! Take it — every last drop!”
“Give it to me!” She screamed, eyes hazy as the Traveler reached his second climax of the evening. Delivering a final few deep thrusts, the blond pushed deeply against Yanfei’s body as he unloaded deeply inside of her, painting her vaginal walls pearly-white with his spunk.
Yanfei wailed as she held her legs locked around the boy, holding on tightly and cherishing his use of her body while he stuffed her with more of that wondrous, passionate heat. Her mind was filled with pleasure — only pleasure — and the lust and love were so paramount that she could barely see beyond the tears that beaded in her eyes.
They collapsed together on the bed, panting hard and hugging one another, lost and hypnotized amidst their starry I love you’s.
Seconds melted into minutes as they lay together, with Aether catching his breath and Yanfei doing the same. After a long few moments of bliss and comfort, Yanfei was suddenly keenly aware of just how filthy she was.
The two were a mess, and with a knowing wince, she dipped her hand down between her spread thighs and pulled back to find more of that translucent splatter.
Even so, she couldn’t help but giggle lightly at their circumstances.
“Sheesh, Aether… you really made a mess of me,” she remarked.
“Can you blame me,” asked Aether, “for doing that to you? You exposed yourself to me first. You were the real dirty one.”
“It was totally worth it in the end, though, right?” She asked, only for Aether to snuggle up beside her and wrap an arm around the girl’s bare body.
“So worth it,” Aether concurred. “So worth it…”
Yanfei sighed with relief, utterly elated to have spent her time with Aether like this. Truly blessed to have become one with the Traveler, and to have confessed alongside him their feelings for one another. She snuck a sweet, soft smooch against his cheek, prompting him to give her a gleeful smile in return.
“So,” said Aether, “are you ready for round three?”
Yanfei stopped, blinking as though she hadn’t heard him right. “Um, what?”
“Round three,” Aether repeated, and Yanfei winced.
“You want to go again? Whatever happened to taking a break?!” Yanfei held up her hands in a time-out gesture, shaking her head with concern. “You’re gonna end up breaking me!”
“Is that really so bad?” He taunted, prompting Yanfei to scoff playfully at him.
“That’s it… c’mere, you!”
Just like before, she started the fun between them. This time, however, Yanfei was content to try something new: she brought herself down between Aether’s thighs, and she gave the tip of his still-hard cock a hello kiss.
“Ah~” The Traveler groaned. “We’re doing this a bit backwards, huh?”
“Hush, you,” said Yanfei. “I made a mess all over it, so it’s my responsibility to clean it all up! Right?”
“Can’t argue with that,” said Aether, sitting up against the headboard with a confident smile.
“Now don’t judge me, just because I haven’t done this before…”
And with that, Yanfei began by stroking the length of Aether’s cock, sliding her hand up and down his rigid pole, and drawing a tender moan from the still-horny Traveler — her boyfriend.
I’m someone’s girlfriend, Yanfei realized, blushing madly. I like the sound of that very much!
“I’ve got you under my thumb,” she teased with a wink. “So you’d better take good care of me, Aether~”
In the end, neither Aether nor Yanfei got very much sleeping done.
