It’s been a good few months since Vox Machina has temporarily disbanded, the members choosing to go their own ways. Scanlan left to tour with Kaylie, Vex and Percy settling into Whitestone, Pike and Grog continuing their adventures. That left Vax, with you.

After recently becoming involved not long before the group disbanded, you two decided to set out so you could complete your own goal, which resonated with completing a task to prove yourself to your family. And Vax, already smitten, of course didn’t hesitate to jump onboard with you. You two were currently settled in Zephrah, your hometown, after having completed said goal. Everything was going fantastic. Vax was getting acquainted with your family and your old friends, and you’d occasionally get a letter from Vex’ahlia or an advertisement slip of where Scanlan’s latest show was.

It was early in the morning, the sun streaming in through the crack of the curtain. There was the faint sound of wind-chimes and the voices of people talking outside, either in the halls of the larger building or outside in Zephrah itself. Vax let out a low groan as the sun shined in on his face, slowly rolling over onto his side, his face digging into your shoulder in a hopeless attempt to stay asleep. His arm was loosely slung across your middle, his longer hair a mess, and he had slept shirtless.
