Summary
In another universe, Tartaglia is the sole Harbinger sent to Liyue to fulfil Rex Lapis’ final contract. A warrior who lives in the moment, and a god who lives to retell the annals of history in the present— they seem ever at odds. But as one contract leads to another, Rex Lapis may very well learn to become 'Zhongli', and Tartaglia may finally be allowed to become 'Ajax' once more.

Summary
It's been two years since the whole... Liyue fiasco , and Childe is totally over it. He's had his vacation in Inazuma, and now he's headed off to Fontaine to cool off (and also follow the auditory hallucinations) (a.k.a the Call of the Abyss) to go and do the will of the creepy abyss heart inside him. Go Childe!
He is totally over that handsome Zhongli-xiansheng— Morax— what do you mean? And he's not even gay!
Or: What the Fuck Was Childe Doing In Fontaine?– the fic.

Summary
Zhongli is away on a business trip, and there's no debt to collect, which means Childe has to wick his energy off in other ways, especially without the soothing voice of his dearest hubby to calm him down from his energetic and manic state. Obviously, this means harrassing the local vigilante that happens to be his only match in Liyue City (if he doesn't count his second, and third superpowers, obviously)
-
or: just like in canon, zhongli-morax-rexlapis and ajax-childe-tartaglia really cannot stop having five hundred different identities. zhongli returns as the vigilante morax, and we finally learn what morax gets up to in the night: obviously, its to spar with his hubby! (if... morax knew that childe was his hubby)Series

Summary
Then, he snorts to himself, as if an inside joke has occurred to him. “What if he simply didn’t want to be known, and purged his ‘identity’ outside of being their Archon from the history books?”
The artist peers up to Zhongli, his amused look unchanging. However, as those eyes look up into his, Zhongli feels like they are not the eyes of a fellow young adult such as him, but of something far more archaic, and dare he say, powerful. They are like whirlpools, deep, drawing wells, and they seem to have seen the weight of the world itself.
In which it is the twenty-first century, and Wang Zhongli, National Gallery of Liyue’s newest docent, becomes acquainted with a artist with rather peculiar interpretations of the history presented in the exhibit about Liyue's forgotten Archon.
Just who is this 'Childe', to say such baseless conspiracy theories about the Archon with no description other than his deeds— preposterous, speaking as if though he is Liyue's Archon himself!

Summary
Ajax used to be a seal, living his life in the oceans, until he falls.
The abyss teaches him what selkies are, and takes from him what makes him a selkie at the very same time.
Clutching onto a sealskin he can no longer use, in a human body weighed down by abyssal taint, Childe struggles to accept that he can be loved.

Summary
Childe is a simple man, most times. He lives his life in the simple, singular pathways of his chosen identities for the day: wielding his blades with deadly precision on the days he must be the Tsaritsa’s Vanguard, and wielding words to weave into tales on the days he is Ajax, older brother.
But there are times where he must set aside, tenderly, the flesh of Ajax and Tartaglia, to deal with matters regarding the deeper world. These matters are often fast and fleeting, but there are occasions.
—
Or: I wax poetry about Eldritch!Childe because I really can't stop. A prequel to 'sacrilegious holiness', my other fic where tartali is eldritch romance.

Summary
Perhaps he is— drowning, that is, in this thing they’re engaging in that most people would call sexual, or at the very least a heated romance. But the yearning that creeps beneath his veins, that causes him to chase Zhongli’s mouth, it is not something he can describe using the physiological reactions of his lacking human vessel.
Childe and Zhongli are really not human and also really into each other— Celestia be damned.

Summary
Ajax Snezhevich, eleventh son of the former, dead, Snow Queen, is the sole inheritor of the position of the Snow Queen. Destined to be lonely in a role where he will only ever love a boy who will leave him for a truer, purer love instead of a villanous queen like him, Ajax doesn't bother deluding himself that he will ever be loved. Not in a world where defying your fate, finding a love outside your storybook, could mean dying— just like his mother.
That is, until new student joins Ever After High on his last year of school— one of the descendents of the House of Dragon Kings, Wang Zhongli.
