When Zhongli is tasked to fetch some books for Hu Tao in an attempt to "stop his moping and get on with his life", the former archon did not expect to find himself intrigued by light novels. Apparently, some individuals penned stories about his relationship with a certain harbinger.
He buys all of them.
When Childe returns home from a trip , he did not expect to be less important than a novel. What happened, and why does that book have his face on it??

Summary
Wise doesn't know how to act when everything that he can think about seems to revolve around one man. Following his sisters (desperate) urging, he meets up with Lighter, just not in the way he expected.
Come to think of it, why did he always end up in embarrassing situations when that fighter came around? Was he part of some sort of romance movie?

Waking up, with Neuvillette by his side, proves to be quite the novel experience for the duke.
Or: Wriothesley's helpless pining is ended by Neuvillette showing him just how much he cares

Summary

Summary
Wriothesley could be a lot of things. It depended on who you asked,really.
An ex-convict or a generous leader. Maybe a fair businessman or a very good fighter. A true tea connoisseur or just a non-traditional omega…
If you would ask Wriothesley, however, he would deny most of these claims with a polite smile. He saw himself more as a fool who was horribly and helplessly in love. With the impartial and seemingly untouchable Chief Justice of Fontaine
When his rare but typically bad heat struggles arrive, Wriothesley does what he does best- hide in his office and work through the discomfort. Pumped full of medicine. However, he did not anticipate that the Iudex would come to him when he missed another one of their meetings. Ruining him and his plans in the process.

A Study on the Revival of Kremnoan Roses: Botany, Symbolism, and Best Practices by lumeenary
Fandoms: 崩坏：星穹铁道 | Honkai: Star Rail (Video Game)
15 Feb 2026

Summary
“You’re distracted, Deliverer,” Mydei mutters. Despite saying this, he isn’t pulling any punches today.
The silence between them becomes stiff, and Phainon needs to occupy his hands with something, anything. “I’m in the middle of… researching something,” he says.
Mydei hums. “With the Grove?”
Phainon feels sort-of-bad-sort-of-not for obfuscating the truth: one because it’s Mydei, and the other because the matter is about him confessing to Mydei, you see. He pulls a face. “You could say that.”
Kremnoan Roses aren't real. Probably. Phainon is about ninety-nine percent sure. But after coming across an antique Kremnoan vase, Phainon swears that if he, by some miracle, manages to recreates them, he will confess to Mydei with a bouquet of mythical roses.

Summary
Amid the vast expanse of stars, two lives intertwine across centuries and reincarnations. Dan Heng, the reserved Archivist of the Astral Express, carries the quiet weight of a past life he has chosen to leave behind. Jing Yuan, the ever-patient General of the Xianzhou Luofu, has seen friends fade and return as strangers, their shared histories fractured by the tides of time.
When Jing Yuan visits the Express, hoping to reconnect with the man Dan Heng has become, their encounters become a delicate dance of unspoken memories and tentative new beginnings. As they navigate the chasm between who they were and who they are now, Jing Yuan must confront the bittersweet truth: Dan Heng is no longer Dan Feng. Yet, Jing Yuan finds himself drawn to him—not just as a memory of the past, but as someone entirely new.

Summary
“Well,” is what Aglaea says at last. “This is certainly… a predicament.”
Her voice is as unreadable as ever, so it could mean anything from this is manageable to this is a disaster the likes of which the Flame-Chase Journey will never recover from. As things stand, Mydei is more inclined to believe the latter.
Beside them, Tribbie finally pops up from where she’s been studying their joined hands. “What Snowy said is true!” she proclaims in a voice far too cheerful for their current situation. “He and De are one hundred percent stuck to each other.”
While out on patrol, Mydei and Phainon get hit with a curse that binds their hands together.

Summary
To be entirely fair, Zhongli had planned to fake his death. He would drop a fake Exuvia just as the Qixing called for him during the Rite of Descension, and he would let everything unfold from there.
That had been the plan. He might’ve started to regret the circumstances, but never the end result. Rex Lapis was meant to die.Zhongli wasn’t.
So why did he?
And if he did,Why was he awake now, somewhere he did not at all recognize?
--------
Or, Zhongli not-quite-transmigrates into a modern version of Teyvat and has to figure out why the Zhongli from that universe (whose body he took over) has died, along with other things threatening the nation. With the other Zhongli dead, he's the only Morax left, after all.
And Morax is duty-bound to protect Liyue.- Language:
